0:00:03.800 --> 0:00:09.039
<v Speaker 1>Rooking Jewels Second Date Update Today, a listener named Patrick

0:00:09.400 --> 0:00:11.280
<v Speaker 1>is on the phone to do a second date update.

0:00:11.440 --> 0:00:13.320
<v Speaker 1>He sent us an email that said he doesn't go

0:00:13.320 --> 0:00:16.200
<v Speaker 1>out with a lot of girls, so he's really hoping

0:00:16.280 --> 0:00:19.560
<v Speaker 1>that he can get another date already with Vicky. I

0:00:19.600 --> 0:00:21.079
<v Speaker 1>guess that's the girl that he went out with, or

0:00:21.079 --> 0:00:22.520
<v Speaker 1>maybe it's just somebody else, but that's the name he

0:00:22.560 --> 0:00:26.080
<v Speaker 1>mentioned an email. Patrick, How you doing, man, I'm doing good.

0:00:26.120 --> 0:00:28.320
<v Speaker 1>How are you guys? Pretty good? It sounds like we're

0:00:28.360 --> 0:00:33.680
<v Speaker 1>doing better than you are. Thanks. Problem. I didn't mean

0:00:33.720 --> 0:00:35.320
<v Speaker 1>to just put you in It got right away there.

0:00:35.560 --> 0:00:37.360
<v Speaker 1>I think you would already punched him, and then you

0:00:37.400 --> 0:00:40.320
<v Speaker 1>punched him again with that second one. Welcome to the show, Patrick,

0:00:41.400 --> 0:00:44.080
<v Speaker 1>Thank you very much. Yeah, no problem. So your email

0:00:44.120 --> 0:00:46.120
<v Speaker 1>said that you're really excited about this girl because you

0:00:46.120 --> 0:00:48.360
<v Speaker 1>don't go out on a lot of dates. Well, I mean,

0:00:48.400 --> 0:00:50.839
<v Speaker 1>I go on a date, it's just they're few and

0:00:50.960 --> 0:00:53.760
<v Speaker 1>fire between. Has been three in the past couple of years.

0:00:53.920 --> 0:00:56.240
<v Speaker 1>Oh no, three in the past couple of years is

0:00:56.280 --> 0:00:59.560
<v Speaker 1>not a bad ratio. Hey, come on that maybe by

0:00:59.600 --> 0:01:02.160
<v Speaker 1>your voice, right, Patrick, you're just really picky? Is that

0:01:02.280 --> 0:01:05.720
<v Speaker 1>it not so much that I'm Picky. I'll pretty much

0:01:05.760 --> 0:01:08.840
<v Speaker 1>go out with anyone. It's just I'm not very good

0:01:08.880 --> 0:01:12.840
<v Speaker 1>at conversations. Oh all right, so you clam up a

0:01:12.840 --> 0:01:15.640
<v Speaker 1>little bit when it comes to going on dates. Yeah,

0:01:15.720 --> 0:01:18.120
<v Speaker 1>just a little bit. Well, if you have trouble talking

0:01:18.160 --> 0:01:20.640
<v Speaker 1>to people, then how did the conversation go on your date?

0:01:21.440 --> 0:01:27.679
<v Speaker 1>It actually was surprisingly well. Um. I yeah, I have

0:01:27.720 --> 0:01:30.000
<v Speaker 1>an icebreaker that I bring with me and I use

0:01:30.080 --> 0:01:33.119
<v Speaker 1>it on the state with Hicky. That you bring with you.

0:01:33.959 --> 0:01:35.919
<v Speaker 1>You're not you're not bringing an ice pick on dates?

0:01:36.240 --> 0:01:39.600
<v Speaker 1>That could be scary. Well, no, it's not an actual icebreaker.

0:01:39.640 --> 0:01:43.600
<v Speaker 1>It doesn't break ice What I did was I set

0:01:43.640 --> 0:01:48.200
<v Speaker 1>up just you know, casual restaurant dates, and I brought

0:01:48.240 --> 0:01:51.560
<v Speaker 1>my potted plant. You what I said, I brought my

0:01:51.640 --> 0:01:55.120
<v Speaker 1>potted plant with me, like an actual indoor plant you

0:01:55.200 --> 0:01:57.960
<v Speaker 1>brought with you? Yeah, just like a succulent you know.

0:01:58.200 --> 0:02:02.280
<v Speaker 1>So it's a small plant. Yeah, and just PLoP it

0:02:02.320 --> 0:02:05.720
<v Speaker 1>down there on the table and it's it's the only

0:02:05.720 --> 0:02:08.480
<v Speaker 1>table that has the plant on it, and girls always

0:02:08.480 --> 0:02:12.600
<v Speaker 1>ask about it. Okay, do you always bring a potted

0:02:12.600 --> 0:02:15.359
<v Speaker 1>plant with you on your dates? Yeah? I've actually found

0:02:15.360 --> 0:02:17.519
<v Speaker 1>for the past three that it's worked really really well, no,

0:02:17.639 --> 0:02:20.440
<v Speaker 1>it has it, Patrick, because you've all had three dates

0:02:20.480 --> 0:02:22.720
<v Speaker 1>in a couple of years and you're on the phone

0:02:22.720 --> 0:02:25.440
<v Speaker 1>with us, right, But every date that I brought the

0:02:25.520 --> 0:02:29.960
<v Speaker 1>plant on, the girl laughs and that takes the focus

0:02:29.960 --> 0:02:32.919
<v Speaker 1>away from me. So it gets sort of my anxiety

0:02:32.960 --> 0:02:35.120
<v Speaker 1>about the date and it just lets us kind of,

0:02:35.680 --> 0:02:37.880
<v Speaker 1>as I said, four break the guys. I will say,

0:02:38.000 --> 0:02:40.480
<v Speaker 1>at first I was pretty judgy, But would you paint

0:02:40.480 --> 0:02:42.640
<v Speaker 1>it like that? The plant sounds like a good idea. Yea,

0:02:43.800 --> 0:02:46.560
<v Speaker 1>it really works. You know, we talk about watering it,

0:02:46.840 --> 0:02:50.240
<v Speaker 1>you know, playing music to the plant, ruining it, and

0:02:50.480 --> 0:02:54.040
<v Speaker 1>like how the greenness in the room just brings out

0:02:54.080 --> 0:02:57.359
<v Speaker 1>a happier mood for people. We end up talking about

0:02:57.360 --> 0:02:59.720
<v Speaker 1>the plant for the entire date. Okay, So it's so

0:03:00.240 --> 0:03:03.400
<v Speaker 1>like you bring your own wingman, except your wingman is

0:03:03.400 --> 0:03:06.320
<v Speaker 1>a plant. Oh good analogy. Yeah, you could say it's

0:03:06.360 --> 0:03:08.560
<v Speaker 1>like a wingman, but I think it's much better than

0:03:08.600 --> 0:03:11.160
<v Speaker 1>a wingman because it allows me then to control the

0:03:11.160 --> 0:03:14.320
<v Speaker 1>conversation and there's no flocking going on from the plant.

0:03:16.040 --> 0:03:18.320
<v Speaker 1>And will you wait, though they're going to develop someday

0:03:18.360 --> 0:03:19.720
<v Speaker 1>and they're gonna be able to steal your girl, you

0:03:19.760 --> 0:03:23.720
<v Speaker 1>never know, I hope that. I mean, the plant sounds

0:03:23.720 --> 0:03:26.480
<v Speaker 1>great in the initial like break the ice moment, but

0:03:26.520 --> 0:03:28.880
<v Speaker 1>when you say that you talked about it the entire time.

0:03:29.040 --> 0:03:32.760
<v Speaker 1>Was she able to learn about who you were as well? Yeah,

0:03:32.800 --> 0:03:36.360
<v Speaker 1>so like, as we're talking about plants and plant facts,

0:03:36.400 --> 0:03:38.880
<v Speaker 1>I get to put in a little bits of information

0:03:38.920 --> 0:03:42.000
<v Speaker 1>about myself in there, and you know, as it relates

0:03:42.040 --> 0:03:44.920
<v Speaker 1>to the conversation, that's when I can't talk about myself.

0:03:44.960 --> 0:03:47.800
<v Speaker 1>So you're like, you know who else loves water? Yeah,

0:03:48.040 --> 0:03:53.000
<v Speaker 1>this guy can't get enough, I mean more or less? Okay,

0:03:53.120 --> 0:03:55.480
<v Speaker 1>all right, how did it work then? This? So the date,

0:03:55.560 --> 0:03:57.840
<v Speaker 1>you guys obviously had a conversation a lot about the plant.

0:03:57.880 --> 0:03:59.760
<v Speaker 1>But what happened at the end of the date, Well,

0:04:00.080 --> 0:04:01.680
<v Speaker 1>the end of the day, I decided just you know,

0:04:01.720 --> 0:04:03.840
<v Speaker 1>I kept the whole plant thing going, and I ordered

0:04:03.840 --> 0:04:07.040
<v Speaker 1>an uber and I put the plant in initially as

0:04:07.080 --> 0:04:09.480
<v Speaker 1>a joke, and like chucked it in, put a seatbelt

0:04:09.560 --> 0:04:14.000
<v Speaker 1>on it, whispered, whispered to the plant um and then

0:04:14.000 --> 0:04:16.400
<v Speaker 1>I said, oh, well, times the plant to go home.

0:04:17.000 --> 0:04:20.880
<v Speaker 1>And she left. She thought it was funny. It's funny,

0:04:21.080 --> 0:04:24.120
<v Speaker 1>But then I was like, oh, it's the plant goes

0:04:24.120 --> 0:04:26.680
<v Speaker 1>I have to go too, so and that's kind of

0:04:26.720 --> 0:04:28.679
<v Speaker 1>how I wrapped it up, all right, did she seemed

0:04:28.720 --> 0:04:30.839
<v Speaker 1>like she wanted to hang out longer without the plant?

0:04:31.200 --> 0:04:33.640
<v Speaker 1>You know, I don't know it was it was really

0:04:33.640 --> 0:04:36.280
<v Speaker 1>difficult to read her towards the end. But she didn't

0:04:36.279 --> 0:04:39.720
<v Speaker 1>give me a hug. So that was a big thumbs

0:04:39.800 --> 0:04:41.640
<v Speaker 1>up there. She gave you a hug. Well, what I'm

0:04:41.640 --> 0:04:43.520
<v Speaker 1>thinking is she might not be calling you back because

0:04:43.960 --> 0:04:45.920
<v Speaker 1>maybe she was hoping you would have made that joke

0:04:45.960 --> 0:04:47.680
<v Speaker 1>about the plant going home and you two could have

0:04:47.720 --> 0:04:49.279
<v Speaker 1>still hung out the rest of the night. But instead

0:04:49.320 --> 0:04:50.960
<v Speaker 1>you were like, yeah, I'm going to get out of

0:04:51.000 --> 0:04:54.440
<v Speaker 1>here too, and then left. I hope that's not the case. Like,

0:04:55.000 --> 0:04:57.680
<v Speaker 1>if that's so, like, then I guess the plant did

0:04:57.720 --> 0:05:01.440
<v Speaker 1>it end? It's fu Yeah, it sounds like it. That

0:05:01.480 --> 0:05:03.800
<v Speaker 1>plan's not gonna get water for a week. And how

0:05:03.800 --> 0:05:05.800
<v Speaker 1>long has it been since you heard from her? Well,

0:05:05.800 --> 0:05:09.080
<v Speaker 1>I was texting her last week. Um, she'll respond if

0:05:09.080 --> 0:05:10.960
<v Speaker 1>I say like, Hi, how are you what's your day going?

0:05:11.960 --> 0:05:15.760
<v Speaker 1>If I ask her on another date, she doesn't respond,

0:05:16.400 --> 0:05:18.880
<v Speaker 1>all right, that's a bad sign. Yeah, all right, Well

0:05:19.120 --> 0:05:21.360
<v Speaker 1>we'll play a song, come back, call her and get

0:05:21.360 --> 0:05:24.000
<v Speaker 1>your second day update. All right, great sounds great. Thank

0:05:24.040 --> 0:05:32.240
<v Speaker 1>you brooking jubil in the morning. We're right in the

0:05:32.240 --> 0:05:35.080
<v Speaker 1>middle of a second date updating if you're just joining us.

0:05:35.120 --> 0:05:37.919
<v Speaker 1>Patrick is on the phone, and I'm really surprised that

0:05:38.000 --> 0:05:40.479
<v Speaker 1>Patrick is not getting a call back from the girl

0:05:40.560 --> 0:05:43.080
<v Speaker 1>he went out with. Her name is Vicky, because on

0:05:43.120 --> 0:05:47.960
<v Speaker 1>his first date, he gave her the old green thumb. Right,

0:05:48.600 --> 0:05:53.120
<v Speaker 1>what girl can resist? All you perverts out there that

0:05:53.200 --> 0:05:56.840
<v Speaker 1>are thinking about what the green thumb could be, You're

0:05:56.880 --> 0:06:00.880
<v Speaker 1>exactly right. He gave her a plan. Well, he didn't

0:06:00.880 --> 0:06:03.320
<v Speaker 1>actually give it to her. He brought a plant on

0:06:03.400 --> 0:06:06.919
<v Speaker 1>his first date because Patrick says that he's not the

0:06:06.960 --> 0:06:09.599
<v Speaker 1>best conversationalist when it comes to the ladies, and he

0:06:09.600 --> 0:06:12.279
<v Speaker 1>gets a little nervous, so he brings a plant along

0:06:12.279 --> 0:06:14.920
<v Speaker 1>with him as an icebreaker and they can start talking

0:06:14.960 --> 0:06:18.480
<v Speaker 1>about the plant and hopefully it leads to other things. Patrick,

0:06:18.880 --> 0:06:22.400
<v Speaker 1>you are a sweet underdog in this story, and I

0:06:22.680 --> 0:06:25.960
<v Speaker 1>really really hope that there's a reasonable explanation for her

0:06:26.040 --> 0:06:29.400
<v Speaker 1>not calling you back. Well, I also thank you, thank

0:06:29.440 --> 0:06:33.000
<v Speaker 1>you for one person being on my side. I'm on

0:06:33.000 --> 0:06:35.080
<v Speaker 1>your side completely, man. I really want you to get

0:06:35.080 --> 0:06:37.960
<v Speaker 1>another day with her. Good. Well, I'm gonna dial her

0:06:37.960 --> 0:06:39.640
<v Speaker 1>phone number right now and see if we can figure

0:06:39.680 --> 0:06:42.159
<v Speaker 1>out why she's not calling you back. Okay, super, here

0:06:42.200 --> 0:06:52.960
<v Speaker 1>we go. Hello him, I speak the Vickie. Please? This

0:06:53.120 --> 0:06:55.960
<v Speaker 1>is she who's speaking? This is Jewil from Brook and

0:06:56.040 --> 0:06:59.000
<v Speaker 1>Jewil in the Morning. How are you? I'm sorry? Who

0:06:59.080 --> 0:07:02.159
<v Speaker 1>is it? Bowl from Brook and jew Bolt in the Morning.

0:07:02.760 --> 0:07:07.120
<v Speaker 1>Does that mean anything to you? Like the radio? Yeah?

0:07:07.440 --> 0:07:13.200
<v Speaker 1>Kind of like it? Or like it? Yeah? Have you

0:07:13.280 --> 0:07:18.240
<v Speaker 1>heard of our show before? Yeah? All right, I'm really

0:07:18.280 --> 0:07:21.440
<v Speaker 1>confused right now. Well let me help you out. We

0:07:21.600 --> 0:07:24.040
<v Speaker 1>recently got an email from one of our listeners and

0:07:24.120 --> 0:07:30.880
<v Speaker 1>it was about you whoa appropriate response. You went out

0:07:30.880 --> 0:07:32.600
<v Speaker 1>on a date with a dude named Patrick a little

0:07:32.600 --> 0:07:37.040
<v Speaker 1>while ago. Oh gosh, come on, Patrick the plant guy

0:07:37.840 --> 0:07:42.560
<v Speaker 1>I email? Okay, Well, Patrick emailed us because he said

0:07:42.560 --> 0:07:45.000
<v Speaker 1>he really enjoyed your date, but now you're not calling

0:07:45.040 --> 0:07:47.200
<v Speaker 1>him back, so he thought maybe we could get you

0:07:47.240 --> 0:07:51.280
<v Speaker 1>on the phone and find out what went wrong. Wow, Okay,

0:07:52.040 --> 0:07:54.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm hoping that you just have like a reasonable excuse,

0:07:54.560 --> 0:07:56.880
<v Speaker 1>like you've been out of town for work. Patrick was

0:07:56.920 --> 0:07:58.880
<v Speaker 1>a great guy. You're ready to give him another shot?

0:08:00.360 --> 0:08:04.679
<v Speaker 1>Not quite really? So what do you think of Patrick.

0:08:05.360 --> 0:08:09.200
<v Speaker 1>He was really nice. I mean, he's pretty awkward, but

0:08:09.600 --> 0:08:17.280
<v Speaker 1>he means well yeah does they're positive so nice overall though? Yeah? Sure, yeah.

0:08:18.160 --> 0:08:19.800
<v Speaker 1>Can I tell you what he told us about your

0:08:19.880 --> 0:08:23.720
<v Speaker 1>day and then you see if you agree please? Okay.

0:08:23.800 --> 0:08:26.200
<v Speaker 1>So he said that when you guys went out, he

0:08:26.240 --> 0:08:30.040
<v Speaker 1>took a plant along with him, and he does that

0:08:30.080 --> 0:08:32.120
<v Speaker 1>so he can have an icebreaker or start a conversation.

0:08:34.679 --> 0:08:37.000
<v Speaker 1>He said that it made you laugh, Like, I mean,

0:08:37.160 --> 0:08:40.880
<v Speaker 1>who wouldn't laugh at that situation? I was laughing, but

0:08:41.040 --> 0:08:43.640
<v Speaker 1>I think it was for a different reason than he thought.

0:08:44.080 --> 0:08:45.840
<v Speaker 1>What do you think you were laughing at him and

0:08:45.920 --> 0:08:50.040
<v Speaker 1>not with him? Well, you're not gonna believe this, but

0:08:50.480 --> 0:08:53.280
<v Speaker 1>this is not the first time this year that I

0:08:53.360 --> 0:08:57.800
<v Speaker 1>go out with a dude who brings a plant. What

0:08:58.320 --> 0:09:01.040
<v Speaker 1>you've gone out with a plant guy before? Patrick? The

0:09:01.120 --> 0:09:04.800
<v Speaker 1>plant guys. I know, I know, it's totally unbelievable, but

0:09:04.880 --> 0:09:07.520
<v Speaker 1>it's true. Where are you meeting these men and like

0:09:07.559 --> 0:09:11.560
<v Speaker 1>an arboretum or shopping or a greenhouse? No. I was

0:09:11.800 --> 0:09:16.160
<v Speaker 1>completely shocked, and then I realized what was going on?

0:09:17.080 --> 0:09:18.960
<v Speaker 1>Why are you you You must be putting some sort

0:09:19.000 --> 0:09:22.000
<v Speaker 1>of bring a plant on the date vibe out. I

0:09:22.000 --> 0:09:26.120
<v Speaker 1>don't know what was what was going on. So after

0:09:26.400 --> 0:09:28.720
<v Speaker 1>the first time that happened to me, I was really

0:09:28.760 --> 0:09:31.240
<v Speaker 1>weird at out and then I thought, well, that guy's

0:09:31.320 --> 0:09:35.880
<v Speaker 1>just a creep. I didn't think about it any further.

0:09:35.960 --> 0:09:39.199
<v Speaker 1>But then after Patrick did it too, I was like

0:09:39.440 --> 0:09:41.680
<v Speaker 1>something going on. I got to figure it out. Yeah,

0:09:41.720 --> 0:09:45.079
<v Speaker 1>what's this horrible trend of dudes taking plants on dates?

0:09:45.080 --> 0:09:47.240
<v Speaker 1>So after I went out with Patrick, I got home

0:09:47.280 --> 0:09:49.640
<v Speaker 1>and I googled it, and sure enough I found it

0:09:49.679 --> 0:09:52.520
<v Speaker 1>on a dating blog. I guess it's the way for

0:09:52.840 --> 0:09:56.439
<v Speaker 1>guys to break the ice when they're out with a girl,

0:09:57.800 --> 0:10:01.400
<v Speaker 1>like a self help type thing. Yeah. I mean this

0:10:01.559 --> 0:10:04.280
<v Speaker 1>is for guys who really have trouble talking to women,

0:10:04.320 --> 0:10:08.120
<v Speaker 1>who get like sweaty hands, and I guess it's supposed

0:10:08.160 --> 0:10:13.679
<v Speaker 1>to help. So now there's a new trend among guys

0:10:13.679 --> 0:10:17.240
<v Speaker 1>that I haven't heard of yet, bringing plants with you

0:10:17.360 --> 0:10:20.240
<v Speaker 1>so that you can talk to your day. Yeah. He

0:10:20.320 --> 0:10:23.240
<v Speaker 1>even used some of the suggested moves that I read,

0:10:23.520 --> 0:10:26.120
<v Speaker 1>so I think that's when I was like, Okay, no,

0:10:26.800 --> 0:10:28.760
<v Speaker 1>what are the suggested way You have to tell me

0:10:28.840 --> 0:10:31.520
<v Speaker 1>what these suggested moves are. Well, one of them that

0:10:31.600 --> 0:10:34.200
<v Speaker 1>I read was to order a beer for the plant

0:10:34.960 --> 0:10:37.200
<v Speaker 1>and then pour it in, and he's sure enough he did,

0:10:37.760 --> 0:10:40.640
<v Speaker 1>so he's stealing all of his moves from this dating block.

0:10:42.000 --> 0:10:44.720
<v Speaker 1>I mean, it just wasn't original, and I wanted them

0:10:44.720 --> 0:10:46.800
<v Speaker 1>to be himself and you run the risk of getting

0:10:46.840 --> 0:10:48.959
<v Speaker 1>that plant hammered. And we know how mauthie they can

0:10:49.000 --> 0:10:52.240
<v Speaker 1>be when they're drunk pansy too. Overall, I was just

0:10:52.360 --> 0:10:55.040
<v Speaker 1>kind of disappointing because I want to get to know

0:10:55.160 --> 0:10:57.679
<v Speaker 1>someone for who they are and not someone who's just

0:10:57.720 --> 0:11:00.680
<v Speaker 1>putting on an act. Yeah, you've got to give some credit.

0:11:00.679 --> 0:11:02.360
<v Speaker 1>It wasn't like an act to get you in bed.

0:11:02.440 --> 0:11:05.559
<v Speaker 1>It was an act to break his own weird anxiety stuff.

0:11:05.600 --> 0:11:07.120
<v Speaker 1>I mean, how do you know that he don't want

0:11:07.120 --> 0:11:10.000
<v Speaker 1>to get me in bed with the plan? Well at

0:11:10.040 --> 0:11:16.960
<v Speaker 1>that he took with him, it was that means business wing.

0:11:17.640 --> 0:11:20.120
<v Speaker 1>I just know. It was really weird. Yeah, it is

0:11:20.160 --> 0:11:21.920
<v Speaker 1>really weird. It's weird that you went out with two

0:11:21.920 --> 0:11:27.360
<v Speaker 1>guys lucky me. Yeah, and it's even weirder that one

0:11:27.360 --> 0:11:29.000
<v Speaker 1>of those guys is actually on the phone listening and

0:11:29.040 --> 0:11:31.600
<v Speaker 1>wants to talk to you. And that guy is Patrick.

0:11:31.960 --> 0:11:37.199
<v Speaker 1>No he's not, Yes, he is hey, Vicky. Oh no,

0:11:37.480 --> 0:11:43.280
<v Speaker 1>come on, so you figured me out? Huh? Are you sure? Dad?

0:11:44.679 --> 0:11:47.920
<v Speaker 1>I mean, you know why I did it. Just anxiety

0:11:48.000 --> 0:11:50.319
<v Speaker 1>gets to me, especially being on a date with someone

0:11:50.400 --> 0:11:57.760
<v Speaker 1>as beautiful as yourself. Oh that's nice, that's really nice.

0:11:57.920 --> 0:12:00.640
<v Speaker 1>But I just wish you could have been more genuine

0:12:00.760 --> 0:12:04.480
<v Speaker 1>instead of following instructions from a blog. Well, as a

0:12:04.480 --> 0:12:06.640
<v Speaker 1>matter of fact, the blog did say to use a

0:12:06.679 --> 0:12:09.240
<v Speaker 1>different type of plant, and I just felt with the one.

0:12:09.280 --> 0:12:13.240
<v Speaker 1>But I felt comfortable with the comfortable plant. So he

0:12:13.320 --> 0:12:17.280
<v Speaker 1>put his own spin on it, Vicky, I mean, that's

0:12:17.320 --> 0:12:21.560
<v Speaker 1>not the type of plants, it's just the plant. See

0:12:21.600 --> 0:12:24.280
<v Speaker 1>what's going on here where it's still talking about the plant.

0:12:24.360 --> 0:12:28.440
<v Speaker 1>Ricky's just like the day. Oh you are smooth, right,

0:12:28.480 --> 0:12:30.760
<v Speaker 1>And that was the problem that I wanted to get

0:12:30.800 --> 0:12:34.600
<v Speaker 1>to know you, not the plant, right, And getting to

0:12:34.640 --> 0:12:38.520
<v Speaker 1>know me takes a while. And you know, a complex person.

0:12:41.080 --> 0:12:44.040
<v Speaker 1>You guys are laughing, But I'm a complex person and

0:12:44.360 --> 0:12:48.160
<v Speaker 1>I do enjoy plants. I have plenty of plants around

0:12:48.200 --> 0:12:54.360
<v Speaker 1>my house, and it's you know what. It eases my anxiety,

0:12:54.360 --> 0:12:58.000
<v Speaker 1>It eases my tensions and provides fresh air from my home.

0:12:58.200 --> 0:13:02.400
<v Speaker 1>There you go, look at that, Hey, Vicky, Patrick is

0:13:02.400 --> 0:13:04.160
<v Speaker 1>a complex person. Would you like to go out with

0:13:04.200 --> 0:13:06.360
<v Speaker 1>him again for a second date and get to explore

0:13:06.480 --> 0:13:08.800
<v Speaker 1>all of his complexities? We will pay for it. We'll

0:13:08.800 --> 0:13:10.400
<v Speaker 1>pay for a second date. I feel like you should

0:13:10.440 --> 0:13:13.200
<v Speaker 1>really give him a second chance. Like he understands that

0:13:13.400 --> 0:13:15.360
<v Speaker 1>you were uncomfortable with the plant. You want to see

0:13:15.400 --> 0:13:17.920
<v Speaker 1>who he is. I don't know. I just feel like

0:13:17.960 --> 0:13:22.559
<v Speaker 1>if Patrick talked to me about him or I instead

0:13:22.600 --> 0:13:26.840
<v Speaker 1>of the planned then maybe that would be. Well, Vicky,

0:13:26.920 --> 0:13:29.920
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna jump in here because I hear you and

0:13:30.000 --> 0:13:32.840
<v Speaker 1>you want to You want to converse. So something you

0:13:32.840 --> 0:13:36.040
<v Speaker 1>didn't learn about me on the date is that I'm

0:13:36.120 --> 0:13:43.160
<v Speaker 1>actually a pro yo YOA. Wow, it's almost like a celebrity.

0:13:43.400 --> 0:13:45.400
<v Speaker 1>Is that for real? Patrick? Yeah, I've been doing it

0:13:45.440 --> 0:13:50.080
<v Speaker 1>for over sixteen years now, and I've got tricks that

0:13:50.200 --> 0:13:53.240
<v Speaker 1>I do myself but nobody else does. There you go, Vicky,

0:13:53.280 --> 0:13:58.120
<v Speaker 1>that's something interesting. A pro yoyoer. That's just not really

0:13:58.880 --> 0:14:01.360
<v Speaker 1>a big turn on for me. Why are you talking

0:14:01.400 --> 0:14:05.120
<v Speaker 1>about walk the dog? Hello? Oh, walking the dog is

0:14:05.240 --> 0:14:08.360
<v Speaker 1>old school. My tricks are so much better. Come on, Vicky,

0:14:08.559 --> 0:14:10.920
<v Speaker 1>A pro yo yoer who needs a plant in order

0:14:10.960 --> 0:14:13.440
<v Speaker 1>to start a conversation. You're telling me that you're not

0:14:13.520 --> 0:14:15.280
<v Speaker 1>turned on because I've got to take a shower. You

0:14:15.320 --> 0:14:17.120
<v Speaker 1>know what they say about a man who can handle

0:14:17.240 --> 0:14:22.080
<v Speaker 1>yo yo, Vicky, and I don't. Actually I feel like

0:14:22.120 --> 0:14:25.480
<v Speaker 1>if this then what else? What other weird thing is

0:14:25.520 --> 0:14:28.400
<v Speaker 1>gonna pop up? Vicky? One other things that you need

0:14:28.440 --> 0:14:32.440
<v Speaker 1>to know about me is that I really genuinely like you.

0:14:34.080 --> 0:14:38.880
<v Speaker 1>Really do. I promise it's not a lie. I don't

0:14:38.960 --> 0:14:43.680
<v Speaker 1>think I can do it. Oh man, that was so heartfelt.

0:14:43.760 --> 0:14:49.560
<v Speaker 1>Do you give up? Patrick? Second happened? You've tried your best? Okay,

0:14:49.840 --> 0:14:53.000
<v Speaker 1>all right, that was easy Patrick. Time to move on,

0:14:53.080 --> 0:14:57.200
<v Speaker 1>I guess. Vicky, thank you very much for your time.

0:14:58.360 --> 0:14:59.880
<v Speaker 1>At least you have a cool story to tell about

0:14:59.880 --> 0:15:02.800
<v Speaker 1>your date. Patrick. Next time, don't give up the fight

0:15:02.880 --> 0:15:11.960
<v Speaker 1>so quick, man, Okay, work in progress in the morning

0:15:12.640 --> 0:15:15.160
<v Speaker 1>text in at seven eight five nine two It says, honestly,

0:15:15.240 --> 0:15:18.240
<v Speaker 1>I think it's less weird that he thought to bring

0:15:18.280 --> 0:15:20.160
<v Speaker 1>a plant on his date because he found it on

0:15:20.200 --> 0:15:22.480
<v Speaker 1>a dating website. I just thought he had an obsession

0:15:22.480 --> 0:15:25.120
<v Speaker 1>with plants, so I would have gone out with him

0:15:25.120 --> 0:15:28.080
<v Speaker 1>after I found that out. Talking about today's second date update,

0:15:28.280 --> 0:15:30.200
<v Speaker 1>that was taped twelve Brooke was still here. Jackie is

0:15:30.200 --> 0:15:32.320
<v Speaker 1>in studio filling in while Brooks out on maternity leave.

0:15:32.440 --> 0:15:34.760
<v Speaker 1>But Patrick wanted to call a girl named Vicky who

0:15:34.840 --> 0:15:37.560
<v Speaker 1>wasn't calling him back after their date. The reason that

0:15:37.600 --> 0:15:40.880
<v Speaker 1>she wasn't calling him back was because, well, it wasn't

0:15:40.880 --> 0:15:42.520
<v Speaker 1>because he brought a plant on the date. So he

0:15:42.560 --> 0:15:44.720
<v Speaker 1>brought a plant on the date as a conversation starter,

0:15:44.760 --> 0:15:46.560
<v Speaker 1>and he spent the whole time talking about the plant,

0:15:46.560 --> 0:15:49.200
<v Speaker 1>and he thought that's why she wasn't calling back. But

0:15:49.560 --> 0:15:52.760
<v Speaker 1>she had actually had that happen to her before, because

0:15:52.800 --> 0:15:55.000
<v Speaker 1>apparently it's on some dating website and dudes have been

0:15:55.000 --> 0:15:57.720
<v Speaker 1>bringing plants on dates as conversation starters. So that was

0:15:58.040 --> 0:15:59.520
<v Speaker 1>wasn't the weirdest part because this is the fact that

0:15:59.520 --> 0:16:01.560
<v Speaker 1>he was like awkward and couldn't have a conversation. You

0:16:01.640 --> 0:16:03.120
<v Speaker 1>just kind of talked about the plant the whole time,

0:16:03.720 --> 0:16:05.720
<v Speaker 1>and she does really soothing too. It kind of made

0:16:05.760 --> 0:16:07.560
<v Speaker 1>me I would have fallen asleep, I think on the day. Yeah,

0:16:07.560 --> 0:16:09.120
<v Speaker 1>she thought maybe he didn't have a lot to offer

0:16:09.200 --> 0:16:12.120
<v Speaker 1>other than just being awkward, but he did say that

0:16:12.240 --> 0:16:16.000
<v Speaker 1>he is a yo yo player, yo yo professional yo

0:16:16.040 --> 0:16:17.880
<v Speaker 1>yo right yoyo players find out the right word. I

0:16:17.960 --> 0:16:19.760
<v Speaker 1>probably offended a lot of yo yo ers out there,

0:16:19.760 --> 0:16:22.280
<v Speaker 1>but like a pro yo yo or so, you guys

0:16:22.480 --> 0:16:24.680
<v Speaker 1>get what it's like to be well you're saying, I mean,

0:16:24.720 --> 0:16:26.200
<v Speaker 1>I guess you guys do get what it's like to

0:16:26.200 --> 0:16:29.840
<v Speaker 1>be saying. It's horrible. It is horrible to be single

0:16:29.920 --> 0:16:34.960
<v Speaker 1>with these kind of people. Up, this is what you get.

0:16:35.040 --> 0:16:38.320
<v Speaker 1>This is your dating pool that's left yo yo people.

0:16:38.440 --> 0:16:40.200
<v Speaker 1>And remember, if you want to do a second day update,

0:16:40.240 --> 0:16:41.600
<v Speaker 1>all you have to do is email the show and

0:16:41.640 --> 0:16:43.800
<v Speaker 1>we will call the person who didn't call you back.

0:16:46.120 --> 0:16:46.560
<v Speaker 1>Ju both
