Speaker 2: Happy Thanksgiving from Brook and Jeffery in the morning.
Speaker 4: Ready or not, Here it comes. The holidays are fast
Speaker 4: approaching Christmas. There's just something about the Christmas season that
Speaker 4: brings out the romantic side of people. Oh that's true,
Speaker 4: thank you and office party Missiletoe. That was definitely not
Speaker 4: the case for two of our listeners who appeared on
Speaker 4: our show almost a year ago, because, in their case,
Speaker 4: the holidays nearly broke them on their very first date.
Speaker 4: Oh no, thankfully we were able to help out. And
Speaker 4: now that we're coming up on the Yule Tide season,
Speaker 4: we're gonna check back in on that same couple for
Speaker 4: a special holiday second date up date update right after
Speaker 4: this second date updated. Brooks swears she's never used the
Speaker 4: dating apps before.
Speaker 1: I have it?
Speaker 4: Is that true or because she knows that her family
Speaker 4: listens to the show Sometimes I really have it. But
Speaker 4: with the way we've been doing our second date updates lately,
Speaker 4: it's kind of like, brook you're getting the online experience anyway,
Speaker 4: because we've been asking people to open up their dates
Speaker 4: profiles and read us some of the stuff that they've
Speaker 4: wrote on there.
Speaker 2: And I'll say, I have flipped through my single friends.
Speaker 1: Changed all of a sudden.
Speaker 4: What about a test, brook If you want to match
Speaker 4: someone in which direction do you swipe?
Speaker 2: Everyone knows that you swipe right?
Speaker 4: Oh wow. Anyway, now that Brooke has schooled us on
Speaker 4: how online dating works, maybe you can talk to Shawna,
Speaker 4: who wants our help today and we want to get
Speaker 4: into Shawna's Dates profile too. Shawna, Welcome to our happy
Speaker 4: little slice of morning radio.
Speaker 1: Hey, thanks, You're welcome.

Speaker 3: I swipe right on a guy named Hunter Hunter.
Speaker 4: Okay.
Speaker 3: He says he's looking for a lady to match his energy.
Speaker 4: Okay, you should put that on your dating profile.
Speaker 1: Oh man, my energy day.
Speaker 4: We would be exhausted someone someone with the energy of
Speaker 4: ten thousand ye oh my god. What's your name?

Speaker 3: different like jogging attire.
Speaker 2: Okay. So he's an active guy.
Speaker 3: And also says he's an old soul that is dreaming
Speaker 3: of moving to a tiny town in the middle of nowhere.
Speaker 2: All right, now, you lost me. I grew up in
Speaker 2: I grew up in a tiny town in the middle
Speaker 2: of nowhere. Nothing romantic about it.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's a really sad story. While your parents listen
Speaker 4: to this, it's like the opposite of the home market.
Speaker 2: Oh they know. Yeah, they thought it was going to
Speaker 2: be more picket fences. Lefts meth Labs on what small
Speaker 2: town life is actually like, Yeah, are you into that?
Speaker 3: Yeah? I will come. I think I love gardening and
Speaker 3: I would love to have some animals and stuff like that.
Speaker 1: You know, what I mean.
Speaker 3: It's like, I don't think meth Labs would play it,
Speaker 3: and I hope not. But anyway, we'll call.
Speaker 4: The plan B for you doesn't work out anything else
Speaker 4: on there, and he ends.
Speaker 3: It with he's unapologetically me so great. So it's like, Okay,
Speaker 3: that's a red flag.
Speaker 2: I'm sorry.
Speaker 4: Guys or girls that say.
Speaker 2: That is it basically says I'm drama.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and I'm not gonna apologize.
Speaker 2: Well it worked for her, wiped on him already.
Speaker 4: Sorry, Yeah, you're much more forgiving than any of us are.
Speaker 4: So tell us about the date that you went on.
Speaker 3: Okay, so our game was great. He took me to
Speaker 3: a pro hockey game. Oh fine, and I kind of
Speaker 3: like hockey, so it was kind of a good thing,
Speaker 3: I think. Yeah. So anyway, but that thing about it
Speaker 3: is that there was no parking. We like literally circled
Speaker 3: the parking lot for twenty minutes.
Speaker 2: Did you say the best thing about it was there
Speaker 2: no parking.
Speaker 3: The worst thing about yeah, like one of the worst
Speaker 3: things about it, there was no parking. Yeah, So we
Speaker 3: looked like twenty minutes and then I realized that I
Speaker 3: didn't have my gloves and so I made him take
Speaker 3: me home.
Speaker 2: Box gloves, like regular, No, we I understand.
Speaker 3: You, guys. I'm always cold, Like right now, my hands
Speaker 3: are freezing. I have cold hands all the time.
Speaker 2: You say you made him take you home.
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, we haven't found parking at that point anyway,
Speaker 3: so I'm like, just take me home and get my gloves.
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, so you missed the whole first period.
Speaker 3: It sounds like probably yeah, but we did come back
Speaker 3: and we saw the rest of the most of the game,
Speaker 3: which was great.
Speaker 2: And then wait, that didn't ruin his mood, like having
Speaker 2: a demand like that.
Speaker 3: No, he was so sweet about it. He's like, I
Speaker 3: get it, very nice.
Speaker 4: Plus he doesn't want to get hugged by her if
Speaker 4: she has cold hands too, So made it back.
Speaker 2: Find me a woman that doesn't have cold hands.
Speaker 3: Cold hands, I know, cold hands, warm hearts. Anyway, the
Speaker 3: game is great, and then he took me home because
Speaker 3: you know, games are long. And then he was like,
Speaker 3: can I come in to my apartment. I was like, well,
Speaker 3: you can totally come in, but it's really cluttered. I'm
Speaker 3: doing this home project. But I kind of just discourage
Speaker 3: him because I really didn't want him in my mess
Speaker 3: because it's embarrassing.
Speaker 4: Trying to but you're like, yeah, you come in though,
Speaker 4: it's going to be the worst experience, but you am.
Speaker 2: So he didn't come in.
Speaker 3: No, he did not come in again. Yeah, so then
Speaker 3: you know, I texted him and he was like, I
Speaker 3: had a great time. He texted me, I had a
Speaker 3: great time.
Speaker 2: Time.
Speaker 3: But then there's been no, let's get together again, let's
Speaker 3: go out on another date. There's been like this, Hi,
Speaker 3: how are you.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's what I was gonna say. You are definitely
Speaker 4: a lot of energy, I can tell you, and it's
Speaker 4: a good thing. I think. I'm not sure if it
Speaker 4: matches his energy though, because I don't know what he's like.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm telling you, I don't know, but I mean,
Speaker 3: I'm telling you, guys, time all right. He was really
Speaker 3: nice and I had such a great time. It's just
Speaker 3: kind of wat. It's kind of like, you know, well.
Speaker 4: I want to hear this in person when we call him.
Speaker 4: We're gonna dial this number in just a few minutes. First,
Speaker 4: we'll play song, we'll come back, and then we'll try
Speaker 4: and get you a second date update right after this. Okay, okay,
Speaker 4: all right, hold on second date update.
Speaker 2: You're in the middle of a second date. Update update,
Speaker 2: and we're gonna find out how the couple is doing
Speaker 2: right after you here part two if you're just joining.
Speaker 4: Us for the second date. We're on the phone with
Speaker 4: Shawna who clearly has a lot of personality. Yes, he's
Speaker 4: got high energy, with freezing cold hands and a messy
Speaker 4: apartment filled with secret projects that she doesn't want her
Speaker 4: date to see.
Speaker 3: It.
Speaker 2: It's just a mess that she'd want him to see,
Speaker 2: not the project.
Speaker 4: Well, because after the hockey date, Shanna told Hunter in
Speaker 4: no uncertain terms, no, you cannot come inside and see
Speaker 4: my place.
Speaker 2: It's a pretty bold ask for a guy to go.
Speaker 2: Can I come in?
Speaker 4: I mean, he's they've already been there twice that day
Speaker 4: for the first time. You want to go pick up
Speaker 4: the gloves? She found her gloves in the clutter. True,
Speaker 4: I'm curious as a guy, would you take that personally?
Speaker 4: If a girl turns you away at the door, I
Speaker 4: would definitely read into it. I mean, it's like most
Speaker 4: of the time, if a girl says it's messy in there,
Speaker 4: it's nothing compared to like a guy's mess what.
Speaker 2: You live with exactly. There are some clean men I
Speaker 2: don't know them.
Speaker 4: Brooke, I would ask you, but I know you've never
Speaker 4: turned away a guy at the door, So for let's
Speaker 4: forget it.
Speaker 2: Jeff jump.
Speaker 4: Shauna.
Speaker 2: How are you doing?
Speaker 4: Are you okay? Before we call Hunter here?
Speaker 3: I'm good. You guys are hysterical, Okay.
Speaker 2: Nobody else has ever said that.
Speaker 4: Face?
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, I hope we can get you a date.
Speaker 2: I mean maybe he's just been busy or something.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I hope.
Speaker 4: So all right, let's find out for sure. We're gonna
Speaker 4: die Hunter's number right now and we'll see what he
Speaker 4: has to say. Okay, okay, and just for the record,
Speaker 4: we think you're hysterical too.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we're matching energy.
Speaker 4: You're welcome, all right. Yeah, let's just call him here
Speaker 4: we go. Hello, Hey, is this Hunter?
Speaker 1: Yes? This is him? And who is this?
Speaker 4: Hey? This is Jeff from the radio show Brook and
Speaker 4: Jeffrey in the Morning. Is this the same Hunter that
Speaker 4: went out with a girl recently named Shauna to hockey game?
Speaker 1: Who's asking? I'm sorry me? Yeah, said name you guys
Speaker 1: from the radio?
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, we do a morning radio show.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's called Brooke and Jeffrey in the Morning.
Speaker 1: Okay, so wait, I'm really confused, right, I'm sorry, this
Speaker 1: is this never happened to me before.
Speaker 4: Well, we'd like to ask you questions about the date
Speaker 4: because Shanna reached out to us afterwards and said she
Speaker 4: had a really nice time with you. Oh, it's part
Speaker 4: of a thing that we do call the second date update,
Speaker 4: and we're trying to help her get some answers for
Speaker 4: why afterwards you two aren't reconnecting.
Speaker 1: Well, uh, she's she is something that's for sure.
Speaker 2: Is she being too eager? Like, were you going to
Speaker 2: get back to her?
Speaker 1: Were you?
Speaker 2: Guys?
Speaker 1: I'm assuming you spoke to her right, So I'm guessing
Speaker 1: you kind of got the feel from her that she's
Speaker 1: a lot of energy.
Speaker 2: She's a lot Yeah, but she said, I mean she
Speaker 2: told us on your dating profile it says you're looking
Speaker 2: for someone to match your energy. I mean people who
Speaker 2: write that are only people who are like high energy.
Speaker 4: Right.
Speaker 1: Don't get me wrong, I'm all for matching energies, but
Speaker 1: there's levels to these sort of thing and levels. The
Speaker 1: date itself was fine, I mean, albeit that there were
Speaker 1: minor inconveniences having to go out of my way to
Speaker 1: get her gloves, and it's the whole thing.
Speaker 4: Okay, Yeah, we heard about that, and from what we understand,
Speaker 4: she felt kind of bad that she left her gloves
Speaker 4: and made you leave and miss part of the game.
Speaker 2: She even called you a gentleman about the whole shit.
Speaker 1: She told me about that, and I understood, it's fine,
Speaker 1: it's whatever. That's not what the deal breaker was for me.
Speaker 2: So there is a deal breaker, yes, one specific reason.
Speaker 1: And that was kind of like the cherry on top,
Speaker 1: and I was just kind of like, okay, now I
Speaker 1: can't go through.
Speaker 2: The gloves were at the beginning, like what was it?
Speaker 1: Then the tail end of it, okay, yeah, the very
Speaker 1: very very end of it. When we went back to
Speaker 1: her place and she's telling me about this project that
Speaker 1: she's working on. It's a mess, you know, She's telling me,
Speaker 1: I don't think it's you know, you might feel comfortable,
Speaker 1: little cramped in there. And I asked, I was, what's
Speaker 1: this project that you're working on? And she told me
Speaker 1: that she has Christmas trees. She's you know, like, okay,
Speaker 1: well Christmas time is coming. And what she said plural trees.
Speaker 1: I'm like, wait, you have more than one?
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, some people do that or a bunch of.
Speaker 1: What's the problem, Well, she has five of them, and
Speaker 1: she's working on three more.
Speaker 2: Did she like make them for other people and then
Speaker 2: deliver them or something.
Speaker 1: It's for her just just to have around the household full.
Speaker 2: Size trees, Like every room in the house is a
Speaker 2: full sized tree.
Speaker 1: I don't know if if it's all in one room,
Speaker 1: or if it's in one room and one's in a bedroom,
Speaker 1: one's in a I don't know.
Speaker 4: So Christmas.
Speaker 1: No, I'm not. I'm not trying to be the grinch here.
Speaker 1: I'm just saying that, you know. And then she seemed
Speaker 1: a little compulsive obsessive over it to the point where
Speaker 1: it's kind of creepy.
Speaker 4: So it sounds to me like you might see her
Speaker 4: as a little bit high maintenance.
Speaker 1: Well, I'll tell you this much. I've been on enough
Speaker 1: dates through the apps to know that when someone obsesses
Speaker 1: over something like this, it's a major red flag.
Speaker 2: Bro. I like to call.
Speaker 4: Red flags fun facts.
Speaker 2: Well, you look at this, red is a color of Christmas.
Speaker 2: Maybe you could the green flags.
Speaker 4: And sure, there's a perfectly good explanation she could give
Speaker 4: you right now when we put her on the other line,
Speaker 4: because he's actually been there the whole time. Hunter wha
Speaker 4: what Yeah, Yes, she's been listening to this conversation.
Speaker 3: Hunter. Hi Hunter. Oh yeah, so okay, so I'm listening
Speaker 3: to this. My head is not to explode. First of all,
Speaker 3: you haven't even been in my house. My house did energy.
Speaker 1: Well, I mean it's sounding like you didn't even want
Speaker 1: me to come in, so I did because I.
Speaker 3: Like, I have ornaments everywhere everything else. They're so cool.
Speaker 3: So I have like a forest, Yes, I do, admit,
Speaker 3: I have like four in my living room. It's kind
Speaker 3: of like a forest. I have like little elves and stuff,
Speaker 3: you know. I put one in my garage and I
Speaker 3: have it decorated like with like little tools, like with
Speaker 3: little nuts and bolts, a little wrenches.
Speaker 4: Sea Hunter, there, you definitely overreacted. Not a red flag
Speaker 4: at all.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, and then I have one in the back.
Speaker 3: I actually put one in the bathroom, like in the corner.
Speaker 3: I take out my hamper and put like it in.
Speaker 2: The bathroom like a full sized tree.
Speaker 3: But yeah, it's great.
Speaker 2: You have a big bathroom.
Speaker 3: It's pretty big. It's coll and skinny. Do you shape
Speaker 3: trees like different shapes and sizes or whatever? This is
Speaker 3: my tall skinny.
Speaker 4: Thank you for sharing so much. I think we get
Speaker 4: the picture. Now you love Christmas, you love all the
Speaker 4: trees in your house?
Speaker 3: He sounds like a glench and are you you're a
Speaker 3: baham bug?
Speaker 4: I don't think so. I would just like to give
Speaker 4: Hunter a chance to respond to you a little bit
Speaker 4: about what what he thinks about all the trees in
Speaker 4: your house? Hunter a second, let him get out maybe
Speaker 4: more than two words this time. Hunter gave it a shot.
Speaker 1: Don't get me wrong, I am all for Christmas spirit.
Speaker 1: I love nature, foliage, you name it. But outside the house,
Speaker 1: you know, maybe one Christmas tree suffices standard.
Speaker 3: Christmas for you.
Speaker 2: Just can't get over there. And you put up eight trees,
Speaker 2: which means you take down big house.
Speaker 4: Energy is probably the equivalent of one tree for us.
Speaker 1: What do you do for New Years? What do you
Speaker 1: do for Valentine's? Like, now you have me thinking, well, yea.
Speaker 3: Valentine's is great whole. I have a whole like a
Speaker 3: separate storage unit for all of my decorations for every
Speaker 3: holiday of the year.
Speaker 4: Was asking her about Valentine's Day, which makes me go answer,
Speaker 4: we would love to send you on that pre Valentine's
Speaker 4: Day date and we will pay for it. Oh yes,
Speaker 4: my friend, friend.
Speaker 2: I mean, you've got to give her. She is fun,
Speaker 2: she is spirited.
Speaker 4: And we know from your dating profile, Hunter that you're
Speaker 4: unapologetically yourself and you can continue to unapologetically be yourself
Speaker 4: on that next day.
Speaker 2: But I will say the majority people in this room
Speaker 2: thought that was a red flash. Maybe you could look
Speaker 2: over her red flash.
Speaker 4: Come on, Hunter, one more chance. We'll pay for it, man,
Speaker 4: Red flag, green flag. Put them together, superb.
Speaker 2: It's like brown, It's like a bad, nasty.
Speaker 3: What do you say, Hunter, You're paid?
Speaker 1: Definitely all right.
Speaker 4: He's unapologetically cheap too.
Speaker 3: Another day, brooking Jeffrey in the morning.
Speaker 4: It's been almost an entire year since we've had them on.
Speaker 4: But apparently Hunter and Shauna are still dating, which is great.
Speaker 4: But the holidays are coming up again. I wonder if
Speaker 4: that's going to cause any tension in their relationship.
Speaker 2: I would say it already has. This girl has already decorated.
Speaker 2: There is no way she's waiting.
Speaker 4: Huh, how you guys doing doing?
Speaker 2: Can you hear it?
Speaker 4: Christmas?
Speaker 2: Can you hear us in the forest in your house? No?
Speaker 4: You have? Why is that normal for you? Or are
Speaker 4: you trying to be considerate of him?
Speaker 3: No? Totally normal.
Speaker 4: Okay, good, all right, Hunter, how are you doing? Are
Speaker 4: you excited for the holidays this season?
Speaker 1: Yeah? Yeah, I'm excited. I'm actually more excited for her,
Speaker 1: you know, so her being excited makes me excited.
Speaker 2: I mean where you guys, are you living together or what?
Speaker 1: Yeah? We're together. I mean we're actually uping the anty
Speaker 1: this time around the anty.
Speaker 2: What does that mean?
Speaker 1: So we're actually instead of eight trees, we're doing nine.
Speaker 4: Is that ninth tree? Like your tree the couples?
Speaker 2: It's like the man cave tree?
Speaker 1: Is that?
Speaker 2: However?
Speaker 1: Actually something really special about the extra tree because this
Speaker 1: one we're actually going into the forest to get it ourselves.
Speaker 1: We're going to cut it down.
Speaker 3: It's going to be totally like a Harmark movie. I'm
Speaker 3: so excited.
Speaker 4: Also check for squirrels. Yeah, Hunter, I'm curious. Is Shauna
Speaker 4: liked this on any other holiday of the year, Now
Speaker 4: that you've almost spent like a whole one together, is
Speaker 4: she like this for anything else?
Speaker 1: Well? At first I thought it might, but no, it's
Speaker 1: actually only Christmas. She has a spreadsheet that she has
Speaker 1: prepared in July.
Speaker 4: July.
Speaker 3: Okay, it has to be that way because I've got
Speaker 3: to keep it all organized, and I have to write
Speaker 3: it down, like all the themes of the trees and
Speaker 3: what's both on each tree. I have to be that way.
Speaker 4: Wow, you should keep it simple.
Speaker 2: I feel like you should start your own business.
Speaker 4: You know, Santa should hire you to act. You need
Speaker 4: to go and set up the North Pole.
Speaker 2: Oh, it sounds like you guys are in a really
Speaker 2: great relationship.
Speaker 3: It's really great. He's amazing you guys.
Speaker 4: If you ever get married, when you get married at
Speaker 4: Christmas time.
Speaker 3: Amongst our forests, yea, I love it.
Speaker 4: Keep us updated on your relationship. Happy to hear from you.
Speaker 2: Yeah, congratulations.
Speaker 4: It's Rook and Jeffrey in the morning.
