Speaker 1: Ant's Brook and Jeffrey in the morning and this is
Speaker 1: your second day podcast. Thanks for being here.
Speaker 2: But today we got to say yes to the X.
Speaker 1: That's when someone writes our show and maybe wants to
Speaker 1: give an old relationship another try, we give them a
Speaker 1: help in hand.
Speaker 2: To try to make that happen.
Speaker 1: And we do not believe it's called a breakup because
Speaker 1: it's broken. Okay, we don't believe that. That was like
Speaker 1: an old book from the early two thousand.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Smart, Yeah, he was like a big self help guy. Anyway,
Speaker 2: I'm on a tangent.
Speaker 1: But but but we still have comments from yesterday's second date.
Speaker 1: The motivational speaker Yes, and Shiny Candy said, Brooke wasn't
Speaker 1: that nice in this one?
Speaker 2: OMG, I did not to be mean.
Speaker 1: I just don't think you could call yourself a professional
Speaker 1: if you're only paying yourself.
Speaker 2: All right, that's just my only caveat.
Speaker 3: I was telling Ashon or technical director. As comedians, we
Speaker 3: can have nobody come to our comedy shows and I
Speaker 3: can still say one person show.
Speaker 2: Up because you were there.
Speaker 1: Yeah, did we give you pros and anything?
Speaker 2: And we want we're there? Okay, Gymnast, Yeah, I like it.
Speaker 2: All right, let's start this episode right now. It's Say
Speaker 2: Yes to the X.
Speaker 3: Do you think people change after college?
Speaker 2: I think so, I hope so.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think they do. I mean, just look at us.
Speaker 3: Alexis drinks way more than she did back in her
Speaker 3: suit I have.
Speaker 2: A higher tolerance slightly.
Speaker 3: Jose doesn't drink at all.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it ruined me, but I mean those four months
Speaker 2: that he went.
Speaker 1: They didn't go to college on a community for a
Speaker 1: little bit, like I think a semester.
Speaker 3: Semester, I passed three class.
Speaker 2: That's right out of six cos.
Speaker 3: I didn't go to those O me. I'm way more
Speaker 3: peppy and energetic than I ever was back in my
Speaker 3: college days. What were you?
Speaker 1: Just like the most depressing person on campus?
Speaker 3: Is you energetic? One of our listeners that was the
Speaker 3: most laughing years guys, our listeners has reached out to
Speaker 3: us because she's been hoping and praying that someone from
Speaker 3: her college days still has the same feelings for her
Speaker 3: that she's been holding on to ever since they graduated. Wow,
Speaker 3: it's a brand new edition of Say Yes to the
Speaker 3: EX and we're gonna do it right after this. I
Speaker 3: know in the movies and on TV shows, they always
Speaker 3: have that sappy storyline of the one that got away,
Speaker 3: because everybody has one, right pretty much.
Speaker 2: I got mine, not secured it?
Speaker 3: Well, not me, ye, okay, if I'm being totally honest.
Speaker 3: Producer Boyd asked me that the other day, and I
Speaker 3: thought through high school and college and even after that,
Speaker 3: Like the closest thing I could remember to the one
Speaker 3: that got away was back in twenty thirteen here at
Speaker 3: the station. Really, do you guys remember Jana?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 2: She was I love Jana. Yeah, Jana, Jenna.
Speaker 3: She was in front of me and took the last
Speaker 3: chocolate muffin at the breakroom. Okay, and I missed my
Speaker 3: chance with that muffin. She was married. Yeah, I have
Speaker 3: never gotten over it to this I still think about
Speaker 3: where that muffin went.
Speaker 2: It's the same brand that they still are stocking.
Speaker 3: But it wasn't the muff the one that's the closest
Speaker 3: it's ever been for me.
Speaker 2: But your heart is so so deep.
Speaker 3: Thank you for understanding my pain. One of our listeners
Speaker 3: apparently has a more romantic version of that story with
Speaker 3: an actual human, not.
Speaker 2: A piece of food.
Speaker 3: To our latest edition of Say Yes to.
Speaker 1: The Yes, I am loving this segment I think it's
Speaker 1: so fun.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, it's fun if it works out.
Speaker 2: If it doesn't, it's you already broke up with them. Once.
Speaker 3: Let's talk to her because her name is Jessica. So, Jessica,
Speaker 3: welcome to the show.
Speaker 1: Hi, yay, Hey, it's careful, Jessica. I'm so excited to
Speaker 1: hear about who we're talking about.
Speaker 5: Oh man. So basically, let me just start off by saying,
Speaker 5: I have been dating. I just haven't met anybody that
Speaker 5: really like sparked anything, you know what I mean?
Speaker 1: Okay, okay, so you haven't been putting all your energy
Speaker 1: into your X.
Speaker 5: No.
Speaker 3: No.
Speaker 5: But the thing is is that every time anything starts
Speaker 5: to get serious, so I think I really like someone.
Speaker 5: I just can't stop thinking about X, and everybody compares
Speaker 5: to him.
Speaker 3: What does he have a name? Does your X have
Speaker 3: a name? Oh?
Speaker 5: Yeah, his name's Kent.
Speaker 2: We Uh that's a strong I feel like it's a
Speaker 2: rich name.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I feel like he's a TV broadcaster. Yeah,
Speaker 3: I thought of like superhero like that.
Speaker 2: Okay, I just no matter what he's wearing an ascot
Speaker 2: to me.
Speaker 3: We're all already in love with him. So we're on board.
Speaker 5: We get it. I mean we dated in college for
Speaker 5: like three years.
Speaker 2: Oh that's a long time.
Speaker 5: He was the guy, right, Yeah, I don't know. He
Speaker 5: was popular at sports, like so charming.
Speaker 3: Solid, keg stand she said.
Speaker 2: He was athletic obviously.
Speaker 3: Okay, he really is the one.
Speaker 1: Wow.
Speaker 2: So why did you guys break up?
Speaker 1: If?
Speaker 2: I mean after three years what happened?
Speaker 5: So basically, like at graduation time, I started getting more serious,
Speaker 5: not partying anymore, and he did a want to settle
Speaker 5: down at all or stop partying or you know.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I can see that leading to a lot of fights, right.
Speaker 3: I mean, I'm not not to take his side on this.
Speaker 3: I'm not on his side, but I could understand as
Speaker 3: a guy who where everything is going great for you
Speaker 3: in college and you're the most popular guy and everybody
Speaker 3: loves you, why would you want to leave that situation?
Speaker 5: And I definitely rushed it right, like I should have
Speaker 5: given him some more time years.
Speaker 3: Well yeah, I think every man should be allowed like
Speaker 3: ten to fifteen years time to mature.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, take it by yourself. That is a very
Speaker 2: good point.
Speaker 1: So you guys went your separate ways, and it sounds
Speaker 1: like it probably was a pretty sad breakup, right, you're
Speaker 1: pretty heartbroken.
Speaker 3: How did that go down?
Speaker 5: I was devastated, like stopping all the time. I mean
Speaker 5: I really thought he was the one.
Speaker 3: Yeah, do you know anything about him now?
Speaker 5: Well, it's taken me a while to get to this point,
Speaker 5: but I talked to a mutual friend a couple of
Speaker 5: weeks ago and they said that he's actually single now,
Speaker 5: and I'm single now, and I was kind of hoping
Speaker 5: that maybe you guys can help me out reach out
Speaker 5: to him.
Speaker 2: The timing he's single?
Speaker 3: Di?
Speaker 1: Is he like still living in his parents' basement? Like,
Speaker 1: I mean seriously, like going to old college parties. You remember,
Speaker 1: there's always like those old people that would show up
Speaker 1: and he'd be like.
Speaker 2: Why are you here?
Speaker 3: Yeah, we're the cool ones.
Speaker 2: Still does he got his life in order?
Speaker 3: Yeah? Like have you seen him on social media or anything?
Speaker 3: Can you tell anything? Like does he look the same?
Speaker 3: Does he have a bet?
Speaker 5: He's still super good looking? I have not friended him
Speaker 5: again because like you've creeped LinkedIn?
Speaker 2: Does he have a job?
Speaker 3: Like?
Speaker 5: I mean, okay, I didn't go all the way, okay,
Speaker 5: but I just kind of fished a down a little bit,
Speaker 5: and I know that he's single and I just I
Speaker 5: don't know. I want to I want to ease into this.
Speaker 3: You know, guys, Okay, so this is going to be
Speaker 3: the first time that you've reached out to him since
Speaker 3: your breakup.
Speaker 2: What is easy about that? Girl? I'm girl?
Speaker 1: You have indeed, Yeah, you haven't d M him, you
Speaker 1: haven't liked to picture nothing.
Speaker 5: No, I have been like crickets on the side.
Speaker 3: Oh my god, Okay, I mean, I'm that's exciting. I'm
Speaker 3: not sure if we've ever had a female reach out
Speaker 3: to us for say yes to the X before. Mostly
Speaker 3: it's dudes who have failed, So we really need.
Speaker 2: A success today.
Speaker 3: I mean, I am very hopeful. I want this to happen.
Speaker 1: What would you say if you, okay, if your girlfriend
Speaker 1: contacted you from college years and year later, totally at
Speaker 1: the blue, would you be excited?
Speaker 5: Oh?
Speaker 3: You're asking me, I didn't date anybody in college. Now
Speaker 3: if the muffin reached out to me, oh my god,
Speaker 3: I wouldn't know.
Speaker 1: Anyone in college.
Speaker 2: Okay, not seriously.
Speaker 3: Anyway, So we're gonna call Kent here and try and
Speaker 3: get him to give you another shot, maybe meet up
Speaker 3: with you once more, say yes to the X.
Speaker 5: Wow, you know I've heard you guys do this before,
Speaker 5: and it's just then back in my mind. So a
Speaker 5: little nervous here.
Speaker 1: I am too, but I'm excited nervous like it's good.
Speaker 3: All right, we all are nervous. Now we're gonna come back.
Speaker 3: We'll call Kent for you and we'll see if he
Speaker 3: says yes to the X and do it right after this.
Speaker 3: If you're just tuning into this segment, we're doing something
Speaker 3: that we don't often do on the show, called say
Speaker 3: yes to the X.
Speaker 2: Oh my god.
Speaker 1: We've gotten such good response though. When we have done it.
Speaker 1: People love.
Speaker 3: This segment very relatable for a lot of people, where
Speaker 3: if a guy or a girl is years later still
Speaker 3: pining after a former flame of theirs, they are brave
Speaker 3: enough to reach out to us and say, you know what,
Speaker 3: let's reconnect with that person over the radio.
Speaker 2: I mean, it is kind of a grand romantic gesture.
Speaker 1: You take offs out of it anyway.
Speaker 2: You can ignore DM, but you can't ignore this college.
Speaker 3: We are kind of a sad version of this. But
Speaker 3: our listener, Jessica, is one of those courageous few individuals
Speaker 3: who has called us about her old college boyfriend of
Speaker 3: three years Kent.
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, I mean they were just Jesse Kent
Speaker 1: all over the place in college.
Speaker 3: They had a great relationship back then, but he afterwards
Speaker 3: really just wasn't ready to move on from his college
Speaker 3: days and mature. So now it's been over a decade
Speaker 3: since their breakup.
Speaker 2: Has it been that long? We forgot to ask before.
Speaker 3: That's what she told us off the air, And they've
Speaker 3: done a little digging found him on social learn that
Speaker 3: Kent is still cute. Yeah, and I you know, I'm
Speaker 3: going to date myself when I say this. But he's
Speaker 3: just got that riz. Oh yeah, baby, you know what
Speaker 3: I mean.
Speaker 2: We do know you did make it on cool Yeah, if.
Speaker 3: I do it with jazz hands, he's got that Riz.
Speaker 2: No, No, not that Riz. We don't even know if
Speaker 2: he has. We haven't talked to him.
Speaker 3: It's according to Well. The most important part is she
Speaker 3: heard that he's currently single. This is her opportunity to
Speaker 3: reach out and see if maybe they can reconnect. This
Speaker 3: is her.
Speaker 2: Shot and sense a friend told you he was single.
Speaker 1: Maybe he's been putting a little word out there too
Speaker 1: that he's been wondering about you.
Speaker 2: You know what I mean.
Speaker 3: I hope that's the end of all of us, you're
Speaker 3: off on your wedding.
Speaker 2: Then I forget Jeff. Do we stay on the phone
Speaker 2: with them? Do they talk?
Speaker 3: This is a little bit different than the other segments
Speaker 3: that we do. We already have him on hold right
Speaker 3: now on the other line. He cannot hear us, okay, okay,
Speaker 3: So we are going to do the segment we've already
Speaker 3: sometimes this is happening, okay, And so the producer has
Speaker 3: talked to him. All that he knows is that someone
Speaker 3: is on the phone for him right now. He does
Speaker 3: not know what it's for.
Speaker 1: God, but dude, his when he realizes it's going to
Speaker 1: say so much.
Speaker 3: It's like mystery door see your ex. Oh my gosh,
Speaker 3: this should be on Netflix es. But before we put
Speaker 3: you on with him, is it okay if I talk
Speaker 3: to him just for a little.
Speaker 2: Bit, Yes, please, Okay, we'll talk up.
Speaker 3: We'll just ease him in slightly to what this is.
Speaker 3: But let's punch him up right, okay, Yeah, don't steal man?
Speaker 5: All right?
Speaker 3: Here we go, Hey, Ken, Yeah, what's up? Hey man?
Speaker 3: My name is Jeff from the radio show Brook and
Speaker 3: Jeffrey in the Morning, the one that you're on right now,
Speaker 3: and I want to introduce you to somebody.
Speaker 1: Reintroduce maybe it's a better way to say.
Speaker 3: I will say, nice to meet Jeff Brokage Mornings.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm a little confused about what's going on, all right.
Speaker 3: It makes you feel better. A lot of the listeners
Speaker 3: that come on this show feel the exact same way
Speaker 3: as you do. And I know this might sound a
Speaker 3: little bit awkward, but Brook was right. I do want
Speaker 3: to reintroduce you to somebody from your past.
Speaker 1: Okay, I get.
Speaker 2: Somebody you might This is going to be exciting for you.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, exactly. Do you remember a girl from your
Speaker 3: college days named Jessica?
Speaker 5: Jessica? Really? Wait?
Speaker 1: Yeah, do you remember your girlfriend of three years from college?
Speaker 1: Hold on you, guys, why do you know that?
Speaker 3: Oh my god, Jessica has reached out to us because
Speaker 3: she says she still thinks about you sometimes and wants
Speaker 3: to know a little bit about how you're doing.
Speaker 5: Oh my goodness.
Speaker 3: So she's on the phone right now. Why don't you
Speaker 3: go ahead and talk to her. We're going to step
Speaker 3: away so you two can talk.
Speaker 4: Hi, Ken. So, yeah, I know this might be like
Speaker 4: a little bit of a surprise, and I'm sure it
Speaker 4: feels like it's coming out.
Speaker 1: Of nowhere for you.
Speaker 5: But I guess basically the thing is is that even
Speaker 5: though it's been a while, I still like think about you.
Speaker 5: And I was just kind of wondering if, like maybe
Speaker 5: there was any chance that maybe you still think about
Speaker 5: me from time to time.
Speaker 3: Yeah, maybe we should ask like a little small talkie
Speaker 3: your question? Are you ben remember how conversation works?
Speaker 5: Okay, Ken, I'm really sorry. I'm so nervous right now.
Speaker 5: I should have asked you how you are? How are you?
Speaker 3: There?
Speaker 5: You go, I'm doing all right. Sure, I guess I
Speaker 5: think about you sometimes.
Speaker 2: Okay, that's good.
Speaker 4: It's at all you wanted to know.
Speaker 5: I mean, that's that's awesome.
Speaker 6: But cool, cool, cool.
Speaker 5: I was curious if maybe you'd want to catch up
Speaker 5: par real sometimes.
Speaker 3: I mean, is it just to catch up or maybe
Speaker 3: a bit more?
Speaker 5: What what are you thinking? Well, I mean we definitely
Speaker 5: have a lot to catch up on. But to be honest,
Speaker 5: like I I mean, I heard from a friend that
Speaker 5: now you're single, and I know you had been dating
Speaker 5: someone for a long time, so that maybe the timing
Speaker 5: right now might be I don't know. Wow, good, Wow,
Speaker 5: I didn't really expect that when I woke up this morning.
Speaker 3: For sure I can get at I mean, I think
Speaker 3: what she's asking for here Kent is just like a
Speaker 3: very casual meetup. She's not looking for me.
Speaker 5: Yeah nothing. I don't want to like put too much
Speaker 5: pressure on it. I just want to like it.
Speaker 2: Knows it's been over a decade for you too.
Speaker 1: Maybe maybe there's nothing there anymore, you know.
Speaker 5: But I mean, you know, like you know, I'm an
Speaker 5: optimist here, and I gotta tell you, like I am
Speaker 5: getting pretty good vibes.
Speaker 2: And right now.
Speaker 4: Direct see, I mean yeah exactly, it wouldn't hurt the
Speaker 4: hang out.
Speaker 5: Yeah, oh yeah, okay you want to hang out? Okay,
Speaker 5: I'm actually gonna have to break up with the guy
Speaker 5: that I'm dating.
Speaker 1: What wait, wait, way you didn't tell us when you
Speaker 1: were dating someone else.
Speaker 5: I mean it's not like super serious.
Speaker 2: He's is a placeholder, a boyfriend.
Speaker 5: Okay, he's not a boyfriend boyfriend, he's more of like.
Speaker 2: Enough, you have to break up with him?
Speaker 3: Did we asked him? Did we not ask?
Speaker 2: She was like, it's an.
Speaker 1: Assuption, Jeff, that's single.
Speaker 3: When you get on the show.
Speaker 5: God, you're dating someone and now you want to break
Speaker 5: up with them and hang out with me.
Speaker 4: Maybe this is coming out wrong. I'm I think it is.
Speaker 5: I just I've always really like I liked you and
Speaker 5: the way things ended, and never like really sat well
Speaker 5: with me. No, no, I totally get all of that.
Speaker 5: But what about this boyfriend that you're breaking up with.
Speaker 5: I mean, he still understand he has heard all about
Speaker 5: for years.
Speaker 2: I bet that's true. Yeah, I mean Kent too.
Speaker 5: Look, you guys are making it sound way worse than
Speaker 5: it is. It really is more like a situationship.
Speaker 1: Okay, okay, all right.
Speaker 6: All right, Well I guess congratulations though, like it would
Speaker 6: be good if we could do the breakup live on
Speaker 6: our show and get some extra content a Tuesday.
Speaker 1: Is that what you're taking to the current that.
Speaker 5: I already text them?
Speaker 4: So we're good.
Speaker 3: You didn't over text, you were on the phone with us.
Speaker 3: You were quickly, he really was.
Speaker 2: We don't even know that Kent doesn't still go to
Speaker 2: college party.
Speaker 3: She's right, I mean, it doesn't matter. He's got that Riiz.
Speaker 3: Remember that we know. Okay, yeah, you don't worry about it.
Speaker 4: You got it, all right.
Speaker 3: So we haven't even said what the name of the
Speaker 3: segment was. But officially, are you saying yes to the X?
Speaker 5: I feel like I'm saying yes.
Speaker 3: It's just as goods. Probably we'll take this off there
Speaker 3: so you guys can organize when you want to.
Speaker 1: Meet up freaking Jeffrey in the morning.
Speaker 2: Well, I don't know how, but that just works.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's so funny, do you guys? Is vine swinging
Speaker 1: still a term that people use?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 2: I have never think that ever.
Speaker 1: Oh, it's where you don't let go of one relationship
Speaker 1: until you have another in your hand.
Speaker 2: As if you're swinging from vine, divine will have to.
Speaker 3: Be in relationships and can't be alone.
Speaker 2: Yeah, VI, you know swinging? Yeah, you always keep hand.
Speaker 2: I like it. It's a good visual. Thanks.
