Speaker 1: offering a rich and jammy Cabernet sauvignon, a silky smooth
Speaker 1: piano now are, and a buttery Chardonnay. Bread and butter
Speaker 1: wines are delicious. Find a bread and butter wines in
Speaker 1: your favorite store. Second Date, Up Date. We got an
Speaker 1: email into the show that said if I had to
Speaker 1: describe my date in one word, it would be awkward. Okay,
Speaker 1: I mean this is right up our alley. I didn't
Speaker 1: even have to read anymore. After that, I was like, yes,
Speaker 1: I'm tired of hearing about gushy, romantic dates from people.
Speaker 1: Let's just call this train wreck. Give us a real challenge.
Speaker 1: And that's the story of how Aaron got on the
Speaker 1: phone with us today. Aaron, thanks for being with us,
Speaker 1: you little dumpster fire. You guys. Okay, Aaron, I never
Speaker 1: understand if your date is described as awkward, why do
Speaker 1: you want to call this person? I like me like
Speaker 1: a restart, you know, like a read. Oh, it is
Speaker 1: your fault. I hear what you're saying. It was awkward.
Speaker 1: That's what all the train wrecks say. I wish we
Speaker 1: could just do this over again. To be honest, it
Speaker 1: really wasn't like my fault, her fault. Like this was
Speaker 1: a really really bad situation. Now I'm dying to know. Yes,
Speaker 1: So tell us a little bit about what happened. First,
Speaker 1: start with the girl. What's her name? Okay, so her
Speaker 1: name's Monica? Okay, where do you meet her? I just
Speaker 1: met her off the dating app? Okay, okay, what'd you
Speaker 1: guys do? Yeah, it was just like a normal, like
Speaker 1: coffee date, and like, to be honest, it just really
Speaker 1: ended up to be like messed up. It sucks. Coffee
Speaker 1: dates are like the safest dates you can have. They're
Speaker 1: not very long. But if they get your drink wrong,
Speaker 1: oh I'm sorry, two pumps of vanilla instead of four,
Speaker 1: you can add a little something extra to that coffee,
Speaker 1: pour a little something in, making a little extra fun.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm talking about. I don't know. Is
Speaker 1: that what you're saying? Okay, I thought that was It
Speaker 1: is what happened, guys, This is what happened. I had
Speaker 1: no control over this at all. Most awkward thing ever
Speaker 1: to happen to me in my life. On the date, Okay,
Speaker 1: wasn't here taking girls the coffee shop thinking safe, coffee
Speaker 1: date whatever. Right, end up getting there, do the window,
Speaker 1: and who do I see? My ex girlfriend works at
Speaker 1: the coffee shop. You honestly had no idea, dude, I
Speaker 1: didn't know anything about this. Trust me, my heart drops butterflies.
Speaker 1: I'm like, what the hell is going on? You know
Speaker 1: this is insane, this is really happening. Anyways, I try
Speaker 1: to play it off, Okay, I really just try to
Speaker 1: keep it cool. I pay for our drinks, we sit down,
Speaker 1: we wait for our drinks, right, She's kind of looking
Speaker 1: at us, and then I'm kind of like looking But
Speaker 1: then I'm like trying to participate in this date. But
Speaker 1: I'm totally distracted by this other situation not just a rose.
Speaker 1: So hold on, did you tell your date about the
Speaker 1: fact that your ex is working as a No, what
Speaker 1: do you I'm just eating this person for pretty much
Speaker 1: the first time ever. If I do that, be like
Speaker 1: red flags that's I never ever see this well, and
Speaker 1: your ex is pissed. Your ex is also mad at
Speaker 1: you at this point. Yeah, I'm a little frustrated myself
Speaker 1: because I'm caught in this limbo. But look, I try
Speaker 1: to play cool whatever. Anyway, she comes and brings the
Speaker 1: coffee to up, did not notice you. I was in
Speaker 1: the situation I was at work. I would have like
Speaker 1: my coworker, heck, I'm in a situation. She just wanted
Speaker 1: the extra tip for good service. She goes off not
Speaker 1: only to do this, but then starts letting me know
Speaker 1: about where she's at in life, why she took on
Speaker 1: this job, and just starts like going off, and then
Speaker 1: the whole time that like, my ex is just ranting.
Speaker 1: I'm just like, I'm looking at Monica, Monica is looking
Speaker 1: at me. I'm like looking at a everyone's kind of looking.
Speaker 1: I don't even know what I mean. At this point,
Speaker 1: Monica knows that this is your ex. Right, is Monica pisted?
Speaker 1: I mean she was understanding, but it was just weird.
Speaker 1: You know. Did she believe you that you didn't know
Speaker 1: that the X work there? I hope I wouldn't believe.
Speaker 1: I wouldn't either, because if I was you, Aaron, and
Speaker 1: I had seen my X in the coffee shop, I
Speaker 1: would have been like, oh, hey, by the way, maybe
Speaker 1: we should go across the street to the other coffee
Speaker 1: shop instead of sitting down right I said it just
Speaker 1: totally left or just like, hey, my stomach, herts, didn't
Speaker 1: wan coffee. Let's go for a walk like anything. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean, like, you know, after the situation had happened
Speaker 1: where she dropped off the drinks and I explained the
Speaker 1: situation Demonica. I asked her if she felt comfortable and
Speaker 1: wanted to leave, and she said, no, it's okay, we
Speaker 1: can stay. So so how much longer were you there
Speaker 1: with Monica? We were there for probably like twenty thirty
Speaker 1: minutes to be honest, and like you know, we moved
Speaker 1: to outside to give some personal space, you know from
Speaker 1: my ex. But I could just see her, like I
Speaker 1: could feel her energy. I can see her looking at me.
Speaker 1: It's like the neighborhood Watch, you know. Oh my god,
Speaker 1: you cannot blame her for this one. I would. I
Speaker 1: would totally do that. This is such a bad time,
Speaker 1: And Aaron, I have something else that I need to
Speaker 1: tell you. Your X is actually in the room with
Speaker 1: us right now. She wants to talk with you. I'm
Speaker 1: just kidding. We're gonna play cool because I just kind
Speaker 1: of want to move forward in my life, not go back. Well,
Speaker 1: let's do that. We'll play a song, we'll come back,
Speaker 1: and we'll call your date Monica for you, and we'll
Speaker 1: try and get you your second date update. All right,
Speaker 1: all right, cool? Thanks. If you're just tuning in for
Speaker 1: the second date update, we've got a guy named Aaron
Speaker 1: on the phone, and I gotta say I am so
Speaker 1: proud of us. Really, we haven't done anything yet. No,
Speaker 1: we did. We made it through a whole part one
Speaker 1: about a coffee date and didn't make a single coffee
Speaker 1: puny would that's just what we do? I feel like, Okay,
Speaker 1: do you know how many puns we could have made
Speaker 1: in that first part? I mean it's not Yeah, a
Speaker 1: whole latte, a whole lot of puns. But okay, we've
Speaker 1: ruined it now. Oh yeah, we all try to say
Speaker 1: one at the same time. Yeah, we're not very good
Speaker 1: at our jobs. We're not, so maybe we should just
Speaker 1: talk to Aaron's Okay, it's officially the worst second date ever.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, Aaron. That's your fault. Jeffrey all want you
Speaker 1: taking life for that, and I want you to apologize
Speaker 1: to everyone. I do. But if you're just tuning in
Speaker 1: and you missed the first part, Aaron took out a
Speaker 1: girl named Monica to a coffee date, and the really
Speaker 1: awkward thing about it was that Aaron's ex girlfriend worked
Speaker 1: as a barista there. He claims he didn't know that beforehand,
Speaker 1: but she even delivered them their food and their drinks
Speaker 1: told them about why she was working as a barista.
Speaker 1: There got really awkward really quick. Aaron, what do you
Speaker 1: think your biggest mistake was here? To be honest, I
Speaker 1: don't know where I where to start. I don't know
Speaker 1: what I did. Ball too many things, I would say
Speaker 1: walking through the door when you saw your ex was inside. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I got this Tamon narrative where I like, people think
Speaker 1: I'm a player or something. No, no one thinks that.
Speaker 1: They just think I was just trying to live alive
Speaker 1: and go on a nice, healthy day. That's it. I
Speaker 1: feel you. All right, play, Let's let's call this girl
Speaker 1: for you and see if we can get you a
Speaker 1: second date. Okay, sounds good? Yeah, buddy, all right, let's
Speaker 1: die the number right now here we go? Hello, Hi,
Speaker 1: can I speak to Monica? Please? Isn't her? Hi, Monica,
Speaker 1: My name is Jeffrey from the radio show Brooke and
Speaker 1: Jeffrey in the Morning. I'm sorry you're what I'm a
Speaker 1: radio host, Yeah, and I host the radio show Brooke
Speaker 1: and Jeffrey in the morning. He's also a sassy pants. Yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: are you sure you meant to call me? I don't know.
Speaker 1: I'm at work. You don't us into our show? Yea yeah,
Speaker 1: we're doing something called a second date update. That's where
Speaker 1: if you go out with someone and afterwards, if the
Speaker 1: person isn't calling you back, you can email our show
Speaker 1: and we'll reach out to them for you to try
Speaker 1: and figure out the reason why. Okay, and so somebody
Speaker 1: emailed us about you recently. His name's Aaron. Oh okay, yeah,
Speaker 1: how could you forget Aaron? So Aaron told us that
Speaker 1: he took you out on a date recently. He admits
Speaker 1: didn't go quite the way that he saw it going,
Speaker 1: but he really had a good time with you and
Speaker 1: is hoping to see you again. Yeah. I don't know
Speaker 1: about that. It was was kind of an interesting situation. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean, what he really wants is a redo of
Speaker 1: the date, because he said that when he went there,
Speaker 1: his ex happened to be working as a barista, something
Speaker 1: that he didn't know going into this. Do you believe
Speaker 1: him that he didn't know that his X was working there? Oh? Man?
Speaker 1: Um I mean, I don't think he intentionally took me there,
Speaker 1: but he got there before me, so like there's no
Speaker 1: possible way that he could have not seen her. And
Speaker 1: like I don't understand why we stayed there, you know
Speaker 1: what I mean, Like we could have gone anywhere else. Yeah, totally,
Speaker 1: but she was wearing like a different outfit, so maybe
Speaker 1: it like blended into the background where he didn't notice.
Speaker 1: I just think that he made it. No. I agree.
Speaker 1: You don't walk into a coffee shop and look at
Speaker 1: every single employee and you just see green apron, green apron,
Speaker 1: green apron. It's like a beacon. Okay, It's like you're
Speaker 1: and then the X is the light, and you go,
Speaker 1: no matter what the first thing you see, no matter what.
Speaker 1: I think that's some like notional issues. Let's bring it
Speaker 1: back to the date. So, Monica, are you telling us
Speaker 1: that was the problem for your date, that you were
Speaker 1: turned off because his X was there? Awkward doesn't even
Speaker 1: begin to describe how weird it was. Right, it was
Speaker 1: like she made the point to come over. She you know,
Speaker 1: brought us our drinks, and she kind of just like
Speaker 1: leaned it like really hard into him and kind of
Speaker 1: just like went off The thing is, Aaron told us
Speaker 1: all that he's aware that all that happened, and he's
Speaker 1: really remorseful, wish that it never happened. That that part's true.
Speaker 1: I mean he wanted to crawl under the table, I think,
Speaker 1: and just curl up in a ball. Could you give
Speaker 1: him the benefit of the doubt there? I mean, here's
Speaker 1: the thing. After this all happened, I felt like it
Speaker 1: was really weird and that there was something kind of
Speaker 1: missing or I don't know, I just I felt like
Speaker 1: I had to kind of go back and I ended
Speaker 1: up talking to his ex. Oh wait, wait, something missing,
Speaker 1: Like she forgot to put sugar into the coffee. You
Speaker 1: went back to the coffee shop and talk to the ex. Well,
Speaker 1: it's just it was so weird because she was you
Speaker 1: could tell that, like she wasn't over him, and that,
Speaker 1: you know, like just and I but why would you
Speaker 1: even put energy into that? Why? I mean, what possibly
Speaker 1: could you talk to her about? I mean, I just
Speaker 1: wanted to kind of hear her side of everything, and
Speaker 1: I didn't know if I was reading it wrong, and
Speaker 1: so I wanted to make sure because if I was
Speaker 1: going to go out with him again, I didn't want
Speaker 1: to get in the way of something. If there's the
Speaker 1: potential that they might get back together, are you playing
Speaker 1: like relationship counselor to them? Like, what did you say
Speaker 1: to her? I mean, you know, we just we ended
Speaker 1: up talking and she just you know, she really really
Speaker 1: misses him, and it just you know, she was telling
Speaker 1: me about all this, like all these like really romantic
Speaker 1: interactions that they had together, and it was just it
Speaker 1: was a lot. And he's going on, that's crazy. Yeah,
Speaker 1: a hold on, hold on, like my girl. But that's
Speaker 1: why she's like, hold on, hold on, Monica. I needed
Speaker 1: to tell you that Aaron's been on the other line
Speaker 1: listening and he heard everything that you said. Aaron, you're
Speaker 1: supposed to wait till we call you in. Yeah, it's
Speaker 1: an organized thing. Yeah, I'm sorry. That has to be
Speaker 1: the most think that happened to me in my life
Speaker 1: that I'm the crazy one. What do you mean that
Speaker 1: you are about? You are out of your mind? Girl.
Speaker 1: Let's wait, Aaron, you think she's crazy for going to
Speaker 1: talk to the X at the coffee shop where you
Speaker 1: had your first date. I would never do that to somebody.
Speaker 1: I would never do that. No, wait, she likes you,
Speaker 1: so she really likes you. She has an opportunity. Cool guy, Aaron,
Speaker 1: you're the one that introduced her to your ex by accident?
Speaker 1: Oh what do you mean introduce? She just ended up
Speaker 1: being at the coffee shop. I didn't introduce one. Monica,
Speaker 1: What are you feeling right now? Yeah? Okay. First of all,
Speaker 1: I think the fact that he's calling me crazy when
Speaker 1: the full and entire scenario was devolved is ridiculous. And
Speaker 1: I don't think I'm being crazy because I think that
Speaker 1: it's kind of a goal code thing, like I'm not
Speaker 1: going to get it in the middle of two people
Speaker 1: that you know, have the village of getting back together.
Speaker 1: What do you mean, girl code? I'm not with her anymore.
Speaker 1: I'm hanging out with you, like dude, her work. What
Speaker 1: do you want me to say? Like you are to her?
Speaker 1: And then we still continue to have a day. I
Speaker 1: don't I don't want to go out on a day.
Speaker 1: I don't ever. All right, So wait, Monica, are you
Speaker 1: still talking to Aaron's X? Oh god, no, I'm not
Speaker 1: talking well right now, but obviously, like we've been texting,
Speaker 1: like it's are you well, what are you guys talking about?
Speaker 1: We're just talking about Aaron and like how amazing and
Speaker 1: beautiful their relationship was together, and how it could still
Speaker 1: be amazing if they decided to me the words like,
Speaker 1: you know, it's really my hert goes out to her,
Speaker 1: it's it's no, she's obviously not over him. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: don't think Erin is interested anymore. I feel like you're
Speaker 1: kind of gaslighting or giving her hope where they're No.
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm just listening, you know, I'm being a
Speaker 1: founding board for her, and she's just kind of talking
Speaker 1: through stuff with me, and that's fine with me. And
Speaker 1: I don't have anything in my love life here. I
Speaker 1: mean this sounds cooky. You're not allowed to do that.
Speaker 1: Array talk about your love life now, so quiet. I
Speaker 1: mean you you're both soon a little cuckoo, but times
Speaker 1: that works out. So Aaron, I mean, do you have
Speaker 1: any lasting feelings for your ex? No? And now knowing this,
Speaker 1: this girl sounds like I think you guys should hang out.
Speaker 1: That's a great idea. Actually, you know what Aaron I
Speaker 1: would like to offer you and Monica and your ex
Speaker 1: to go out on another day. We'll pay for it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean, I know a great coffee shop there we
Speaker 1: go Monica's on board, you know, taking you to that
Speaker 1: coffee shop, knowing that you went back to talk to
Speaker 1: my ex. Now being on the radio, this has to
Speaker 1: be a, by far now the worst thing that's ever
Speaker 1: happened to me in my life. Glad we could do
Speaker 1: that for you. Wow, Arian, you really do make bad decisions.
