Speaker 1: Second date update, Brooke, how do you feel about the
Speaker 1: idea of meeting someone out in the real world?
Speaker 2: I love it. I mean it's great.
Speaker 1: Okay, to be clear, I'm not talking about you meeting
Speaker 1: another man.
Speaker 3: I'm really excited about that. I just meant in general,
Speaker 3: think I thought you were talking about how.
Speaker 1: Do you feel about meeting someone in the real world
Speaker 1: while you're in the middle of a date with someone else?
Speaker 3: About the time, Jeff, I mean, I don't know.
Speaker 4: It's one of those things where it's like, if you're
Speaker 4: meant to be with the other person, Brook.
Speaker 1: The bars set ankle low for Brooke because it sounds
Speaker 1: like it may have happened to one of our listeners
Speaker 1: named Grace recently and she needs our help.
Speaker 3: So Grace, welcome to the show.
Speaker 5: Oh hi, thank you.
Speaker 2: Where's your moral compass? Pointing Grace?
Speaker 3: Oh, she's tickled by the idea of this.
Speaker 1: But you said in your email that you were out
Speaker 1: on a date with another guy when something right?
Speaker 6: Yeah, it was the first date with a guy from
Speaker 6: just the apps, you know all that?
Speaker 7: All that?
Speaker 2: Okay, So so no no skin in the game.
Speaker 6: There, exactly exactly totally blind a blind guy.
Speaker 4: That's new because it would be easier to hit on
Speaker 4: somebody a true Yeah.
Speaker 5: Okay, So he just was not turning out to be
Speaker 5: that nice or that great.
Speaker 1: I mean he was like okay to me, wait, not
Speaker 1: nice and that means you love him?
Speaker 7: Right?
Speaker 3: What do you mean like specifically? How was he not nice?
Speaker 7: Point?
Speaker 6: It was just like he was treating the weight staff
Speaker 6: really horribly.
Speaker 7: No.
Speaker 4: No, that such a turn that universal No, No, so
Speaker 4: embarrassing to be with him.
Speaker 2: You want to dream my mom. The first day, I
Speaker 2: swear I don't know him.
Speaker 6: Honestly exactly, like I don't can know this behavior. I'm
Speaker 6: not a part of it.
Speaker 2: Okay, okay, okay, So when'd you beat the new guy?
Speaker 6: Well, so the waiter, Darren, he was super.
Speaker 5: Nice, and I thought, since because my date was being.
Speaker 8: Such an ask to him, what better lesson to teach
Speaker 8: him than to like ask Darren out Like when he
Speaker 8: brought us the dessert menu, I was like.
Speaker 9: Oh my gosh, in front of the guy you were out.
Speaker 3: With, it's like you're trying to go lower.
Speaker 2: Even if I thought of that in my head, I
Speaker 2: don't know if I could pull it off.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's hard, like he doesn't deserve it.
Speaker 1: Did you feel like you were getting vibes from Darren
Speaker 1: throughout the night or did you just kind of surprise.
Speaker 3: Him with that?
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh.
Speaker 8: No, I think I kind of took him off guard
Speaker 8: because it was really more about me wanting to like
Speaker 8: stick it to my date.
Speaker 3: Okay, it didn't matter what he said.
Speaker 2: You are a bold woman. Seriously, what did you do?
Speaker 2: How did you say it?
Speaker 8: So when he was bringing over the dessert menu or
Speaker 8: he asked us to bring it over, I was like, yes,
Speaker 8: but also because you maybe also bring over your number.
Speaker 5: Let me know when you're out of here, because I'm
Speaker 5: out of here.
Speaker 2: Wow, what did your date say?
Speaker 3: Oh my gosh.
Speaker 8: I mean his ego couldn't really allow him to believe it.
Speaker 6: You know, he was laughing, trying to laugh.
Speaker 5: It off and be cool. But when I was doubling
Speaker 5: down and I was like, no, no, no, this is happening.
Speaker 3: Why got so bold? I would almost think my date's joking.
Speaker 2: If I was a waiter, I would think it.
Speaker 8: Was a joke.
Speaker 3: And yeah, what was the response from Darren the waiter guy?
Speaker 6: I mean, he was really trying to hold back his smile.
Speaker 6: He you know, tried to keep it professional, but as
Speaker 6: soon as my date realized that I was not joking,
Speaker 6: he did the classics, threw down the napkin, stormed off
Speaker 6: without paying. Actually, and so this was the kicker. Darren
Speaker 6: paid for half of the meal because I was like.
Speaker 1: Oh, wow, even though he waited on you, he's still paid.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I hope you tipped him on your half of the bill,
Speaker 1: or hopefully Darren left a good tip for himself.
Speaker 5: Well, yeah, I tipped him.
Speaker 8: But I also was like, I'm serious about, like, hey,
Speaker 8: where you're gonna.
Speaker 5: Get off, Like, let me at least shoot you to
Speaker 5: a drink and stuff.
Speaker 4: Oh my god, that's one way to let a guy
Speaker 4: know you're not interested like the other guy.
Speaker 2: Ye a nice closure. Yeah, I like it. I'm like,
Speaker 2: in awe, I'm actually making it happen.
Speaker 3: So did Darren take you up on the offer?
Speaker 7: Thank you? Yes?
Speaker 8: We met up at a bar after he got out
Speaker 8: of work, like nearby the restaurant.
Speaker 4: And did he think of it romantically because he may
Speaker 4: have still been thinking, oh, I'm a good like almost friend.
Speaker 2: That like saved you.
Speaker 1: This is like an apology totally totally yeah.
Speaker 6: Where we were there for about an hour or so.
Speaker 5: And then I went in for the kiss when he
Speaker 5: was walking into my car.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that doesn't narrow it down. I kiss a lot
Speaker 3: of waiters.
Speaker 7: After their ben.
Speaker 4: I knew you guys were gonna end up making out
Speaker 4: just because your voice got so high.
Speaker 3: Clearly you are feeling Darren. Where are you two at now?
Speaker 7: Okay?
Speaker 5: So I don't know if I messed it up at
Speaker 5: the end, because yeah, I went in for the kiss,
Speaker 5: and then he wanted to take things back to his place.
Speaker 5: But I'm that's where I flowed things down. Okay, he
Speaker 5: felt rejected. Maybe I don't know because he's been very quiet.
Speaker 8: I mean I said that I really wanted to see
Speaker 8: him again.
Speaker 1: You know, he should understand you just met him hours
Speaker 1: before for the first time ever. But maybe she was
Speaker 1: so aggressive at the beginning. It was like meeting asking
Speaker 1: out drinks, like and then she slammed on the brakes
Speaker 1: all of a sudden that could have thrown for a loop.
Speaker 4: He was like, yeah, he's in a relationship. We don't
Speaker 4: know anything about this guy. He's making out with some
Speaker 4: chick that he thinks he's just getting a thank you
Speaker 4: drink from.
Speaker 3: And like, maybe it is just like Brooks life. We're
Speaker 3: gonna find out.
Speaker 1: When we come back, we call Darren and well, we're
Speaker 1: gonna try and get you your second date.
Speaker 3: Updates. See where his head's at right after this second
Speaker 3: date update. Two dates in one night with two different dudes, right,
Speaker 3: what happens? What Alexis would call a slow evening.
Speaker 2: I mean, you got your makeup done, you might as
Speaker 2: well make the most of it.
Speaker 1: Sure, one of our listeners, Grace. It wasn't planned though.
Speaker 1: The first guy that she was with turned out to
Speaker 1: be a total jerk was acting rude to the waiter
Speaker 1: at the restaurant, so to get back at him, Grace
Speaker 1: asked the waiter out on a date and did it
Speaker 1: at the table, right in front of the other guy.
Speaker 2: I cannot believe you could do that. I'm really loud.
Speaker 1: It was a bold move and it worked because that
Speaker 1: night she went out with the waiter Darren to grab
Speaker 1: some drinks and they even smooched at the end.
Speaker 2: Upgraded.
Speaker 3: But that's why it's weird.
Speaker 1: Darren isn't answering back after they parted ways. Brooks theory
Speaker 1: is that Darren is in a relationship, maybe even two,
Speaker 1: and he's on the TLC show My Four Favorite Wives.
Speaker 3: That's her idea.
Speaker 2: I did say that. I did say that just moment
Speaker 2: to go.
Speaker 3: But we don't know.
Speaker 1: I guess it is possible. We'll only find out once
Speaker 1: we call him and get him to answer the phone.
Speaker 4: Yeah, wife three answers, we're gonna know right away exactly.
Speaker 1: But Grace, this was just like a one night drink situation.
Speaker 1: Why was the meeting so important to you that you
Speaker 1: wanted us to get involved in it?
Speaker 8: Well, I mean when I saw how much of a
Speaker 8: jerk this first date was, and then.
Speaker 5: I saw how nice of.
Speaker 8: A guy Darren was, it's like, wow, Okay, like my
Speaker 8: type maybe is a.
Speaker 3: Nice guy, you know, like you shot it by that. Well,
Speaker 3: sometimes you think you have a type and you don't.
Speaker 1: Recently, I always said I never want to play video
Speaker 1: games with my girlfriend, and I recently played video games
Speaker 1: with a girl and it was amazing.
Speaker 7: Something.
Speaker 3: You bro, you're mature and you're trying new things. Sometimes
Speaker 3: you mature and play video Yes, thank you, Jeff. Somebody
Speaker 3: be nice to other weight staff.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you shame you if you don't tip twenty five percent.
Speaker 3: Let's do this. So we're gonna call Darren. Hopefully he
Speaker 3: picks up or one of his wives. Does, and here
Speaker 3: we go. Hello, Hi is this Darren?
Speaker 7: Yes?
Speaker 2: Okay, okay, hey Darren, good morning.
Speaker 7: Hey is this hey?
Speaker 3: Sorry?
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a whole room full of people because we're
Speaker 1: a radio show called Brook and Jeffrey in the Morning.
Speaker 2: Okay, I'm sure he doesn't listen.
Speaker 4: Anybody who works like night dinner shifts is not Sorry.
Speaker 1: We heard that you're a waiter because you went out
Speaker 1: on a date with one of our listeners named Grace recently.
Speaker 1: You have to drink, so it was like an impromptu
Speaker 1: date that happened the other night.
Speaker 3: You remember Grace?
Speaker 7: Uh, yeah, I know who Grace is. And yeah, we
Speaker 7: went on a date. What about it?
Speaker 2: Oh you do consider a date?
Speaker 7: Okay, well, I mean she asked me to drink. What
Speaker 7: am I supposed to call it? Yeah?
Speaker 2: Well she asked you in front of her current date.
Speaker 4: Like yeah, yeah, we would be like, yes, I want
Speaker 4: to hear your side of that story.
Speaker 3: We've heard that.
Speaker 1: We've heard Grace's version of it. She painted it very romantically.
Speaker 7: Yeah, so she's kind of she's interesting. Okay, So I
Speaker 7: was waiting on her and she was on another date,
Speaker 7: but I could totally tell she was flirting with me.
Speaker 2: Oh, really good.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, that was her goal though.
Speaker 1: Well, when we talked to her, she didn't say that.
Speaker 1: She said it was more of like a last second
Speaker 1: thing when you brought the dinner menu over.
Speaker 3: Towards the end.
Speaker 7: No, no, no, no, no. I could totally tell like she
Speaker 7: was paying attention to me. She was looking at me.
Speaker 7: There was definitely a vibe.
Speaker 8: Well, she has to look at you to give an order.
Speaker 7: I waited tables a long time. I know how to
Speaker 7: pick up on vibes.
Speaker 1: Yeah, So, like the feelings weren't reciprocated on your end
Speaker 1: because she said that you guys kissed at the end
Speaker 1: of the.
Speaker 3: Night, and now you're not calling her back.
Speaker 7: Well, I don't know if she told you everything, because
Speaker 7: when we went out, she treated the bartender the same
Speaker 7: way that she was treating me when she was on
Speaker 7: the other day, she was flirting with the bartender in
Speaker 7: front of me.
Speaker 4: Are you sure you're just terrible at knowing what flirting
Speaker 4: is because she was like adamant that she wasn't flirting
Speaker 4: with you.
Speaker 7: Maybe that could be Well no, because here's the thing.
Speaker 7: I got a text message from the bartender who happens
Speaker 7: to be a friend of mine. I know him. He
Speaker 7: works at the bars right down the street. Okay, and
Speaker 7: he said, hey, bro, watch out, the girl came back
Speaker 7: in and got my number.
Speaker 1: Whoa, she's a busy bee.
Speaker 8: Okay.
Speaker 1: We did not hear any of that from Grace. She
Speaker 1: was just talking about you.
Speaker 2: Are you sure he didn't mix her up or something
Speaker 2: like it was her?
Speaker 3: Well, I don't know who.
Speaker 1: It's better to just ask Grace this because I need
Speaker 1: to let you know, Darren. She is on the other
Speaker 1: line right now listening in.
Speaker 3: She has our number two.
Speaker 6: No oh no, oh man, you wait, Oh no.
Speaker 2: You got found out? Or oh no, you did it.
Speaker 6: There's there's an explanation, guys.
Speaker 3: Okay, so you did. You went back and got the
Speaker 3: bartender's number.
Speaker 8: Okay, I mean, but I needed it for a very
Speaker 8: specific reason.
Speaker 6: It's not scandalous.
Speaker 4: Oh, you just needed to make the best Manhattan of
Speaker 4: your life recipe.
Speaker 3: You were saving him from a date.
Speaker 5: He was also on what excuse, It's not an excuse.
Speaker 8: I mean, I have other stuff going on in my life,
Speaker 8: and like there's okay, my my sister is getting married
Speaker 8: and we're having a party for her, and so.
Speaker 6: I was getting this bartender number so.
Speaker 7: He can be the bartender.
Speaker 1: Why does it sound like you're making this up on
Speaker 1: the spot right now?
Speaker 4: Okay, okay, I mean sure, maybe that's true. So why
Speaker 4: wouldn't you ask that in front of Darren.
Speaker 8: I didn't really even think about it until after I left.
Speaker 4: You know, she was so focused on Darren d I mean,
Speaker 4: that's not why she could pull off for long.
Speaker 2: If her sister's getting married, it's and they go on
Speaker 2: a date.
Speaker 3: All you better be the wedding date.
Speaker 1: Now we've heard the explanation, Darren, what do you think, I.
Speaker 7: Don't know buying it? No, I'm not. I'm really not
Speaker 7: buying it.
Speaker 1: She kissed you that night, Darren, not the bartender, unless
Speaker 1: I don't know. Did your bartender mention anything else happening
Speaker 1: besides the phone number exchange.
Speaker 7: No, I don't know if they've gone out on a
Speaker 7: date or anything yet. But I mean, I don't know.
Speaker 7: That just seems sketchy to me. Oh, I'm sorry. I'm
Speaker 7: not born yesterday, all right. I worked in the service industry.
Speaker 7: I know bartenders all the time. I have a guy
Speaker 7: bartender that picks up on women all the time who
Speaker 7: are there with dates, and they come back and the
Speaker 7: girls give him their numbers. It's a comment like no, no, no,
Speaker 7: I don't buy that.
Speaker 4: What if the bartender was just trying to call DIBs,
Speaker 4: you know, like he's the one that made it up,
Speaker 4: Like maybe she's telling the truth and he's like, no,
Speaker 4: I want to ask her out, and so he's trying
Speaker 4: to get you to like leave the situation.
Speaker 7: No, no, I know my friend, Like he's not going
Speaker 7: to do that.
Speaker 3: Just tell her the truth. I would feel really bad
Speaker 3: for her in this situation.
Speaker 1: No, she like dodged a jerk and then she met
Speaker 1: a nice guy who she's trying to court on a bridday.
Speaker 2: Okay, so when's your sister's wedding and how.
Speaker 5: Soon it's in six months?
Speaker 3: I was like, weirdly, I believe it.
Speaker 2: Okay, there's a long pause there.
Speaker 1: If you want, if you want the bartender to help
Speaker 1: with the wedding, maybe you want Daring to be a
Speaker 1: waiter at your sister's wedding too, so that way you
Speaker 1: can kind of even it out.
Speaker 2: She wants him to be her date.
Speaker 3: Oh ya, that would be more romantic, wouldn't That was
Speaker 3: literally set up for you. I don't know why I
Speaker 3: stuck him in the services.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Okay, if she can prove, if she can prove
Speaker 4: it with like some sort of save the date or
Speaker 4: invitation that this is actually happening, would you believe.
Speaker 3: Even if it is a lie, do you care?
Speaker 1: But we're not going to be able to produce that
Speaker 1: here in the next few seconds, because you.
Speaker 7: Let me, let me talk to some of y'all who
Speaker 7: haven't been around the block a little bit. He may
Speaker 7: very well have a sister who's getting married in six months,
Speaker 7: but that just might have been an excuse for her
Speaker 7: to go back and get that guy's number.
Speaker 8: Oh man, you know, actually I'm feeling a little attack
Speaker 8: with this right now.
Speaker 6: He's being a little accusatory, so it doesn't feel very
Speaker 6: worth it at this point.
Speaker 5: I thought you were a nice guy.
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 7: Hey, look I'm not the person I went behind somebody's
Speaker 7: back to get somebody else's phone number.
Speaker 3: I am the nice guy. Yeah, he is a nice guy.
Speaker 3: I don't know who to believe.
Speaker 1: I know, well, I want to be a nice guy
Speaker 1: in this moment and offer to send you to on
Speaker 1: another date and we'll pay for it.
Speaker 8: I really don't think he's gonna say yes.
Speaker 5: He's already so skeptical and.
Speaker 3: Honest. Well, Darren, what do you think it balls in
Speaker 3: your court?
Speaker 7: Nah? I can't do that.
Speaker 2: Wow, oh man, you can do his gun.
Speaker 4: You're gonna feel so foolish when you see your friend
Speaker 4: bartending at her sister's wedding.
Speaker 7: Yeah, you want to pay me to bartend at her
Speaker 7: sister's wedding. I'll glad they do.
Speaker 3: It, all right, I just won't be her date.
Speaker 8: Well, Darren, as I said before, we already got the
Speaker 8: bartending position billed.
Speaker 7: So oh.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Darren.
Speaker 1: By the way, can you just clear something up for
Speaker 1: us real quick? Do you have four wives? I've been
Speaker 1: dying to know.
Speaker 9: No, i swear he was the guy for jeff I'm sorry,
Speaker 9: only twenty bucks Brook and Jeffrey in the morning.
Speaker 1: We keep trying to figure out if she was lying
Speaker 1: or if she wasn't lying.
Speaker 3: But what if it was just an old H and.
Speaker 10: H guys, you know, like Brooke used to do with
Speaker 10: the promo team, hire and hook up, just a classic
Speaker 10: H and H situation.
Speaker 9: Exadly is usually the reverse. I'd dump them and then
Speaker 9: I'd hire them, and then it was awkward. Sometimes we'd
Speaker 9: hook back. Okay, I shouldn't get into all.
Speaker 3: The stories, the ultimate pity.
Speaker 2: Yeah it wasn't good.
Speaker 9: Yeah, Okay, made some poor choices in my life, so
Speaker 9: did this girl.
Speaker 4: Us.
Speaker 1: A lot of poor choices were made all throughout this
Speaker 1: phone call and throughout that date, so no surprise they
Speaker 1: didn't go out again. But doesn't mean there's not hope
Speaker 1: for you. We can call that person who's not calling
Speaker 1: you back, maybe get your little H and H situation,
Speaker 1: or just a regular second day.
Speaker 2: The regular second day would probably be a better Just
Speaker 2: one of those ages.
Speaker 1: Yeah, just email us and go check out all of
Speaker 1: our second dates wherever you get your podcasts at Brook
Speaker 1: and Jeffries
Speaker 2: Brook and Jeffrey in the Morning
