Episode Overview

This episode of "Awkward Tuesday" focuses on Lindsay, who seeks advice on how to stop her boyfriend Andre from getting her name tattooed on his leg after just four months of dating. The hosts help Lindsay navigate this "romantic" but premature gesture, as the conversation quickly unravels into deeper issues of commitment, timing, and unexpected declarations—including a surprise marriage proposal.

---

Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Relationship Backstory ([06:32]-[06:59])

• Lindsay and Andre have been together for four months; Andre is described as intensely romantic, even by Lindsay, who appreciates but finds his gestures overwhelming.
• Andre decides he wants to get Lindsay’s name tattooed on his leg. The catch: he also wants to use it to cover up an old tattoo of his ex-girlfriend's name—Tiffany.

2. The Tattoo Dilemma ([07:12]-[08:52])

• Lindsay explains Andre’s reasoning: "He says he wants other women to know that they can't have him. He's mine." ([07:12], Lindsay)
• Lindsay just learned about the ex-girlfriend’s tattoo only a week ago and is uncomfortable being the "cover up."
• Hosts note the problematic nature of the gesture—Andre’s repeating a mistake, and Lindsay doesn't want to be another regretted tattoo.

3. Emotional Pressure and Communication ([08:52]-[09:19])

• Lindsay feels the gesture is far too soon and worries it will add awkward pressure to the relationship, stating, "It's way too early in the relationship... it'll make things really awkward and put way more pressure on a relationship." ([08:36], Lindsay)
• She also doesn’t want to "crush" Andre’s sensitive spirit.

4. Hosts’ Advice and Banter ([12:46]-[14:44])

• Brooke suggests a “reverse-psychology” approach: Tell Andre to do what he wants, but gently steer him toward a mutual symbol instead of her name, “But do you know what would be even more meaningful than my name is something that we love together… like a symbol.” ([12:54], Brooke)
• The team jokes about alternative tattoo ideas: burritos, pickles, or even a “quesarito”—with Alexis chiming in on the food theme ([13:12]-[13:16]).
• Jeffrey proposes a compromise: “Just one letter every year... maybe you start with an L,” gradually spelling her name over many years ([13:46]-[14:11]).

5. The Awkward Tuesday Phone Call ([14:55]-[19:21])

• Lindsay calls Andre to discuss the tattoo. She floats the idea of a shared-interest tattoo (pizza or chips & queso) instead of her name ([15:53]-[16:24]).
• Andre thinks Lindsay is "on drugs" for suggesting food tattoos and restates, “I want your name on it so that everyone else knows I'm taken.” ([16:31], Andre)
• Lindsay points out that neither has said “I love you” yet, and questions the intensity of Andre’s commitment. This prompts Andre to blurt out, “I love you... I felt like it was almost implied. But, yeah, I love you.” ([17:10], Andre)

6. Surprise Proposal & Emotional High Point ([18:06]-[18:21])

• In a shock twist, Andre asks Lindsay over the phone, “Will you marry me?” ([18:13], Andre)
• Lindsay is taken aback, voices concern over the fast pace: “I think it's moving way too fast, and it's starting to freak me out a bit... I don't want to be just another name tattooed on your body that you're trying to cover up in a year.” ([19:55], Lindsay)
• Andre concedes, “I guess I'm willing to wait... I'll be as patient as I am. Please.” ([21:10], Andre)

7. Resolution and Reflection ([21:25]-[24:21])

• Lindsay and Andre agree to slow things down, and Andre steps back from both the tattoo and the proposal.
• The hosts affirm the importance of honest communication and not rushing major relationship milestones.
• They joke about Andre’s history with “Tiffany” tattoos and the odds he might date another Tiffany in the future.
• Jeffrey summarizes: “We got Andre to cancel his upcoming tattoo… helped shut down his marriage proposal and made him question whether his girlfriend even loves him at all.” ([24:03]-[24:13], Jeffrey and Host 3)

Summary

This “Second Date Update – Awkward Tuesday” episode is a whirlwind of romantic oversteps and crisis management. Lindsay’s boyfriend Andre tries to solidify their young relationship with a permanent tattoo—covering both his ex’s name and, potentially, any future regret. The hosts carefully coach Lindsay through giving Andre a gentle reality check, promoting communication and more appropriate milestones. The segment unexpectedly escalates to both an “I love you” and a marriage proposal, both of which Lindsay gracefully slows down. In the end, the couple agrees to take things step by step, and Andre postpones his dramatic tattoo plans—at least for now.

[Brooke]

All right, here it is. A brand new episode for you. Thank you so much for being on our second date podcast. We love that you're here. We're glad you found us. It's booking stuff Friday morning, especially the official site, you know.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, totally.

[Brooke]

Instead of the, you know, other stuff.

[Alexis]

Yeah. And a lot of you find those first, but then you make your way to us, and for that, we love you. Yes.

[Brooke]

Thank you for finishing my thoughts. Yeah, it's almost complete, Alexis. All right, before we get to the new Awkward Tuesday, what is a comment that you want to read?

[Alexis]

Yeah. Charlize Testa said, I'm traveling solo around Europe for three months and have been listening to your podcast in every country I visit. I now associate your episodes with places I've been.

[Jeffrey]

Well, that's wild to think about.

[Bethenny Frankel]

Yeah.

[Brooke]

So cool. He's like, oh, I remember the Leaning Tower of Pisa. That's when you know, Jacqueline broke up with Bobby.

[Jeffrey]

You gotta respond back. What's the coolest place you've ever laughed at us? Oh, I like that.

[Brooke]

I like that. That's so cool. We'll have a good, safe trip. And we're all slightly jealous.

[Alexis]

Yeah. Let us know where today is and

[Brooke]

give us some hot travel tips. We're always about that.

[Redfin Advertiser]

Yeah.

[Brooke]

All right, let's get to your brand new Awkward Tuesday right now.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

Alexis, what's the most romantic thing a guy has ever, ever done for you?

[Jeffrey]

Oh, no, don't make her throw up, dude.

[Alexis]

Like a rose petal path to, like a hot tub probably. And we ended things.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

Yep. That was your reaction. You broke it off?

[Alexis]

Not immediately.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

Oh, she accepted it.

[Bethenny Frankel]

And then the next day, remix to

[Alexis]

a song, hey there, Delilah. But hey there, Alexis. That one was bad too.

[Jeffrey]

Every guy did that.

[Lindsay (Caller)]

Okay.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

You didn't like any of it?

[Alexis]

No. Same guy.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

Well, apparently. Poor dude. Apparently you and our listener on the phone today are very, very similar. Because when her boyfriend of four months told her the gesture that he'd been planning, her immediate response was to try and stop him from doing it at all costs. And that's where we come in. Can we help convince this Romeo to tone it down without fully crushing his romantic spirit? We're gonna try in your brand new awkward Tuesday phone call. Next.

[Jeffrey]

It's awkward.

[Brooke]

It's Tuesday.

[Jeffrey]

It's awkward Tuesday phone call.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

Some people in relationships enjoy grand romantic gestures. Yeah, like surprise getaways. Sending dozens of roses.

[Jeffrey]

I miss sending flowers.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

Creating a life sized wax sculpture of your girlfriend.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, my God.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

Then lighting it on fire. Cause it's actually a giant science scented candle.

[Jeffrey]

Don't hit the aw button.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

Just you and her and your house full of cranberry cinnamon.

[Brooke]

That's better than burning hair.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

But you know what? Stop the music real quick.

[Brooke]

What?

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

Because not everybody wants that stuff. Like our listener Lindsay, who's asking for our help today to tell her boyfriend, chill out with the romance, bro. Oh, yeah. Lindsay, why do you insist on pushing love away?

[Lindsay (Caller)]

Hi.

[Brooke]

Yeah, she's like, I don't know how to respond to that.

[Jeffrey]

It's always nice to start a convo.

[Brooke]

That's really funny, Lindsay.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

Hi, Lindsay. So tell us, what's going on with you and your boyfriend? What's his deal?

[Lindsay (Caller)]

So I've been dating Andre for about four months and.

[Brooke]

Oh, it's a new relationship. I see.

[Jeffrey]

That's the best part, too.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

It's exciting.

[Alexis]

Clearly not for her.

[Lindsay (Caller)]

Yeah, well, no, I mean, listen, he's very sweet. He's romantic. Like, he is a great guy, but, like, it's only been four months. You know, it's still very early. Yeah.

[Andre (Caller’s Boyfriend)]

Okay.

[Lindsay (Caller)]

The other day he came up to me with this idea that he wants to get a tattoo of my name on his leg.

[Brooke]

Okay.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

On his leg.

[Brooke]

Can we go back to the couple dozen of flowers? That's better.

[Jeffrey]

I mean, you could be together for 20 years and still that's a sketchy ass.

[Brooke]

Why? Why would he want to put Lindsay on his leg?

[Lindsay (Caller)]

Okay, so this is also a red flag. He says he wants other women to know that they can't have him. He's mine. Which is, you know, nice, but.

[Brooke]

Yeah, but they only know if he's wearing shorts, so that's problematic.

[Andre (Caller’s Boyfriend)]

So.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

Well said. It could be on the kneecap, Brooke,

[Brooke]

still, how do you see it? Under pants?

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

Yeah, with a hole in your jeans.

[Brooke]

I see.

[Jeffrey]

I see. Right there.

[Brooke]

Okay, so this is his way of

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

deterring other women because he's obviously so desired.

[Brooke]

God.

[Lindsay (Caller)]

But you're going to get a kick out of this one, though, because it's. He wants to cover up an old tattoo of a different girlfriend's name.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, no, this is his thing.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

Well, that's good. You don't want another girlfriend's name.

[Jeffrey]

Name.

[Brooke]

Wait, but the. But the first girlfriend's name didn't deter you.

[Lindsay (Caller)]

I didn't know about that till a week ago.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

Remain eye contact, everything above the belt.

[Jeffrey]

He is smart. If you have another girl's name on your leg, you should probably not tell a woman until two, three years into the relationship.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

Fair. Okay.

[Jeffrey]

As long as you can hold out, I guess.

[Brooke]

How does this man not learn his mistake? Right? He's already made the mistake once and now he wants to do it again, essentially.

[Lindsay (Caller)]

Right, that's exactly what I'm saying. But now he's already made an appointment, and I need to have a serious conversation with him.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

Okay.

[Jeffrey]

The appointment's been made.

[Lindsay (Caller)]

Yeah.

[Jeffrey]

That's. Wow.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

So you're not into the idea. Like, what is giving you so much hesitation about it, like, specifically?

[Lindsay (Caller)]

Well, one. It's way too early in the relationship. It's been four months. And I don't think that matters to him. I think he likes to move quickly. I think it'll make things really awkward and put way more pressure on a relationship. It already is putting pressure on the relationship. Relationship.

[Brooke]

Yeah. And there's, like, an obligation to stay together because your name's tattooed on my leg.

[Lindsay (Caller)]

Oh, yeah.

[Jeffrey]

Has he said, I love you yet?

[Lindsay (Caller)]

No.

[Jeffrey]

Okay, that's good. He shouldn't have, but you would think that word would be, he doesn't have

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

to say I love you when he can write it on his leg and

[Jeffrey]

your name around it.

[Brooke]

Have you. So it's wild that you haven't said no. That's not a good idea to me. Why? Why haven't you just told him that outright?

[Lindsay (Caller)]

I just. I don't want to crush him because he is a sensitive guy and this is a big deal for him, but he's already made this mistake once before. I don't want to be another mistake.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

I mean, I can understand. That's the tough part, because when somebody goes all out for you and puts their entire heart into something and you come at them like, ew, or that's weird, or that's gross, like, that could totally crush someone, it's not gross.

[Brooke]

It's just a Terrible decision that he's already made once and obviously regretted. So why would she let him do it again?

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

Exactly. Those words would absolutely destroy him. You said it to his face.

[Brooke]

Maybe he needs to hear that. Like, sometimes the hard truth is just what has to happen.

[Alexis]

He thinks it's for her, but she doesn't want it at all. Yes.

[Jeffrey]

I think he's romanticizing it in his head.

[Brooke]

It's just so hard to call it romantic when it's over the top of another woman's name.

[Alexis]

Yeah.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

So we haven't given our advice yet, but it sounds like from the temperature in the room, it's gonna be pretty harsh.

[Alexis]

I mean, you can cover it in other ways. There's tons of ways. They cover bad tattoos, but that's not

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

the romantic way that he wants to do it. How do you, like, deliver. Deliver that message to him in a gentle way.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

That doesn't crush him.

[Lindsay (Caller)]

That's what I'm trying to figure out right now. I mean, calmly, gently, like, Brooke, imagine if Jeff got your name tattooed on his arm without asking you.

[Brooke]

We just have to cut the arm off. I mean, that would be the only solution.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

I mean, that would be extra weird because Brooke and I aren't, like, romantically together or anything like that.

[Jeffrey]

I want to get the show logo tatted. You know, I don't want to do that.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

It'd be a weird, romantic gesture for someone you're not dating.

[Jeffrey]

It's not romantic. The guys we work together.

[Brooke]

I just think tattoos should be, like, a selfish thing, like whatever you want, not for someone else.

[Jeffrey]

Got it.

[Lindsay (Caller)]

Yeah, I agree too.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

Okay, so with that being said, Andre wants to do this maybe just for himself.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, so he'll always remember her.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

Yeah, to prove to himself how much he loves her. This is his own challenge.

[Alexis]

It's like how much you love the last girl.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

Yeah.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah.

[Brooke]

I'm just curious. What was the last girl's name? Oh, yeah.

[Lindsay (Caller)]

Tiffany.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, at the same length. It makes sense.

[Brooke]

Yeah, that's good. And they both end with Y, so there's that. You'll have to cover up.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

That'll be easier for him. But we're gonna try to convince him to not go through with that when we come back, give you our advice, and let you make your awkward Tuesday phone call to your boyfriend to convince him not to get a tattoo of your name on his leg.

[Lindsay (Caller)]

Yeah.

[Brooke]

This is to cover up his ex's name.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

Yeah, we're gonna skip that part.

[Brooke]

It's important.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

We'll do it right after this. Hold on.

[Jeffrey]

It's Awkward.

[Brooke]

It's Tuesday.

[Jeffrey]

It's awkward Tuesday.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

Ph, you've heard of the five love languages. Tattooing people's names should be the sixth because that's what our listener Lindsey is dealing with. She has a very romantic minded boyfriend named Andre who after four months together has told her, I've made an appointment to get a tattoo of your name on my leg so that you know I'm a hundred percent yours.

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Lindsay (Caller)]

Okay.

[Brooke]

And it's also covering up the ex's name.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

Yeah, yeah, it's a good point to bring up. So Lindsay thinks it's a little bit too soon to be doing this. But regardless, she needs our help on how to tell him gently that maybe this isn't the right time for something like that. And perhaps we can convince him to just think about it or at least cancel his appointment. Okay, so I'm interested to hear what my co hosts have to say. Brooke, how would you crush a man's dreams?

[Brooke]

This may be shocking to you, Lindsay, but I think you tell him, do it.

[Lindsay (Caller)]

Okay.

[Jeffrey]

Dare him against all this.

[Brooke]

And then you follow it up with. But do you know what would be even more meaningful than my name is something that we love together. Like a symbol. Or maybe you both love burritos or you love pickles. I'm thinking long and thin, A big

[Alexis]

cookie with a lot of leaves.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

What do you think about getting a quesarito tattooed on both of your legs?

[Alexis]

I like it.

[Lindsay (Caller)]

Lindsay, I'm not willing to get a tattoo.

[Brooke]

No, I'm not telling you to. I'm just telling him to choose one out of something that you both like so that when you break up, it's something he still likes.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

Excuse me.

[Brooke]

Excuse me.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

Not when they break up. Brooke. They're going to be together forever. Yeah. Brooke, how dare you?

[Brooke]

That's not the vibe I'm getting.

[Lindsay (Caller)]

No, I love. I love that idea. That's good.

[Jeffrey]

Lindsay.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

You still like him, you want to stay with him. You just don't want him to get the name tattooed. So Jose, what's your advice?

[Jeffrey]

I believe there's a compromise here. That we start with just one letter every year. Right? Every year, one letter. Maybe you start with an L. Okay,

[Brooke]

so he'll be lifany for a while because it's covering up the ex's name.

[Bethenny Frankel]

Tiffany.

[Jeffrey]

He will be Lee for a couple years. That way if you guys continue to date, you can add a letter each year.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

Interesting.

[Jeffrey]

And it's like a tradition.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

Lindsay, what do you think that's cute.

[Lindsay (Caller)]

I think that that's a An idea. And if it's just like a tally, then it's not a crazy tattoo.

[Jeffrey]

We'll have a big L tattooed on him at first.

[Brooke]

And the second year is I, which is also the start of his ex's name, second letter. So that's good.

[Alexis]

Yeah, that's good. That's a year.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, you only need to block out a few letters.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

Yeah.

[Alexis]

Yeah.

[Jeffrey]

It's like.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

I mean, that's the best advice that we've had all year.

[Jeffrey]

Wow, thanks. I'm honored.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

Very low bar that we've set for ourselves, but that's what we've got for you, Lindsay. You can do what you want with it. But I'm going to dial your boyfriend's number right now and let you make your awkward Tuesday phone call.

[Andre (Caller’s Boyfriend)]

Are you ready?

[Lindsay (Caller)]

Yes, I'm ready.

[Andre (Caller’s Boyfriend)]

Hello?

[Lindsay (Caller)]

Hey, it's me. How you doing? How's your day?

[Andre (Caller’s Boyfriend)]

Good day? What are you calling me from?

[Lindsay (Caller)]

Oh, I just this different number. I had to borrow someone's phone. My phone died. It's fine. I'm curious how your day is going. What's good? What's up?

[Andre (Caller’s Boyfriend)]

Good, good. Now getting my day going. Getting things out. I took out the garbage, so that's out there. Ready to go. You know, it's going all right. How's your day going, babe? Other than your phone dying, obviously.

[Lindsay (Caller)]

I know I need to bring a charger with me everywhere I go, but I wanted to discuss something with you real quick. Do you have time?

[Andre (Caller’s Boyfriend)]

Yeah, I can take a break from taking out the trash.

[Lindsay (Caller)]

We're good? Yes. Okay. Thank you. So this tattoo idea that you brought up to me the other day, I

[Andre (Caller’s Boyfriend)]

can't wait to get Tiffany's name off me.

[Lindsay (Caller)]

Yeah, and I can't wait for you to stop saying her name, too. But I think maybe we could do something a little more meaningful than my name. And maybe you could get. Get something like that we both love together, like chips and queso. Crosses my mind. Or how we both love Neapolitan style pizza. I think that could be a cute tattoo. That could definitely cover up her name.

[Andre (Caller’s Boyfriend)]

Babe, what's the deal? Are you. Are you on drugs or something? What's up? What?

[Lindsay (Caller)]

Why would you even say that?

[Andre (Caller’s Boyfriend)]

No, it's cute and all, but it's like, I want your name on it so that everyone else knows I'm taken. I don't want them to think I'm taken by chips and queso.

[Lindsay (Caller)]

I. I understand that, but I think the biggest reason why I'm bringing this up is that you don't Even know if you love me yet. So tattooing my name on your body just seems like a really big jump, you know what I mean?

[Andre (Caller’s Boyfriend)]

Babe, you don't know if I love you or not? Are you serious?

[Lindsay (Caller)]

Well, I mean, you haven't said it, so how would I know?

[Andre (Caller’s Boyfriend)]

I. I mean, I. I'll say right now on the phone, I love you. Like, it's been four months. Some people just know. You know, it's just. Sorry. Like, I thought with all the. With everything that I've shown you and done and putting, you know, wanted to tattoo your name, I felt like it was almost implied. But, yeah, I. I love you.

[Lindsay (Caller)]

Oh.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

Oh, my God.

[Lindsay (Caller)]

Okay, I. This is how you're gonna say I love you for the first time? We've been dating for four months. I think that four months is a little too soon to be exclaiming love for each other, don't you?

[Andre (Caller’s Boyfriend)]

Some people just know in. I mean, four months. Some people just know in less time than that, you know? Like, do you have that feeling, like you don't. You don't feel the same way?

[Lindsay (Caller)]

Well, of course I feel that way.

[Andre (Caller’s Boyfriend)]

Yeah.

[Lindsay (Caller)]

But I'm just trying to wrap my head around it.

[Andre (Caller’s Boyfriend)]

All right, well, what if. You know, what if you wrap your head around this? What if you were my wife?

[Lindsay (Caller)]

Oh. What?

[Brooke]

What?

[Jacob Goldstein]

Huh?

[Jeffrey]

No.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

Huh?

[Lindsay (Caller)]

What did you just say?

[Andre (Caller’s Boyfriend)]

I. All right, let's just be blunt about it. Lindsay, will you marry me?

[Jeffrey]

We should have hit the button so much earlier.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

I'm waiting for the answer from Lindsay.

[Lindsay (Caller)]

I think we know it.

[Nyx Advertiser]

Yeah.

[Brooke]

Did he pass out? Andre?

[Jeffrey]

Hello?

[Andre (Caller’s Boyfriend)]

What's going on? Who's this?

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

Hey, Andrew. This is a radio show that you're on right now called Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.

[Brooke]

We have never heard so much done in one small conversation.

[Andre (Caller’s Boyfriend)]

So I'm. We're on the radio right now.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah.

[Brooke]

Does that make it more romantic?

[Andre (Caller’s Boyfriend)]

Oh, I mean, had I known, I would have planned better, but.

[Brooke]

Or planned at all, my friend.

[Andre (Caller’s Boyfriend)]

Yeah, I mean, yeah, you guys caught me off guard, but whatever. Like, I said it before when, you know. You know, and some people just. No, when it's fine. Like.

[Brooke]

Okay, you are a spontaneous man.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

Yeah. I don't know how. How Lindsay's feeling about this right now. Lindsay, are you still there?

[Lindsay (Caller)]

Yeah, I'm still here for a second.

[Brooke]

That was a long pause.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

Okay, so there was a lot said there in the last few minutes. You should probably just talk to Andre about the feelings and the questions that are all coming out at once.

[Brooke]

I don't even know if we'd Address the test.

[Lindsay (Caller)]

Yeah, I think that's a good idea too.

[Brooke]

Go ahead.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

Now would be the time.

[Andre (Caller’s Boyfriend)]

I mean, yeah, I didn't really necessarily hear an answer,

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

so the question still stands.

[Lindsay (Caller)]

Still is hope. I. I have to say no to

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

the chips in queso. That's what you're saying no to, Lindsay?

[Jeffrey]

Just say no to every question, Jeff.

[Lindsay (Caller)]

I think it's moving way too fast, and it's starting to freak me out a bit. And as much as I adore you, I don't want to be just another name tattooed on your body that you're trying to cover up in a year.

[Andre (Caller’s Boyfriend)]

Oh, okay. So I think I get it. It's not necessarily like a no. It's more like a not yet.

[Brooke]

That's a positive spin.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

Yeah, sure.

[Lindsay (Caller)]

You can look at it that way.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

Okay. To all the questions that have been posed today. Not yet.

[Brooke]

The tattoo. Yep. I love you. The L word. Yeah.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

Any other big moves you were thinking of making? Well, we probably don't even want to go there.

[Brooke]

Andre, why are you trying to fast forward everything?

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

I know it's not like a garbage that you're taking out really quickly. You want to take your time and enjoy it, babe.

[Andre (Caller’s Boyfriend)]

I feel like these guys are trying to tell us how to live our romantic life.

[Brooke]

He's not wrong.

[Jeffrey]

We are. Well, we're trying to help, though, truly.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

Lindsay came to us seeking advice on how to have this conversation with you. Because as much as she really enjoys your relationship and likes you, Andre, a lot of these steps are happening too quickly for her. Speed.

[Lindsay (Caller)]

Yeah, absolutely.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

Okay.

[Jeffrey]

Okay.

[Brooke]

Are you hearing her, Andre?

[Andre (Caller’s Boyfriend)]

I guess I'm willing to wait. If that's what's going to lead to, then I'll be as patient as I am. Please.

[Jeffrey]

Okay, listen to us.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

How about tonight at home, you get some nacho queso dip and some Neapolitan pizza and you see what words come out of her mouth then.

[Andre (Caller’s Boyfriend)]

But in the meantime, what am I supposed do to. To do with this Tiffany tattoo?

[Jeffrey]

Oh, good question.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

Probably stop mentioning her is the first thing.

[Jeffrey]

Maybe just do a big black box on that one.

[Brooke]

Just wear pants, man.

[Andre (Caller’s Boyfriend)]

All right, we'll figure something else how to cover it then.

[Lindsay (Caller)]

Okay.

[Jacob Goldstein]

Look at that.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

What an understanding guy.

[Brooke]

I hope you share pictures of it with us.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, we love to see it.

[Andre (Caller’s Boyfriend)]

We'll definitely send pictures. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.

That call definitely lived up to the billing. It was certainly awkward. But you know what's gonna be really awkward is if we check in in a few months and Andre's back together with Tiffany because he couldn't get her

[Brooke]

name off of his leg. I didn't even think about that possibility.

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

Oh, no. Maybe he just felt like it was fate at that point.

[Jeffrey]

Or you only date Tiffany's. Yes, another Tiffany.

[Brooke]

There are a lot of options out there.

[Andre (Caller’s Boyfriend)]

Yeah.

[Brooke]

Sorry, Lindsay, if you're listening, sorry, Lindsey,

[Host 3 (possibly Brooke or Jeffrey's co-host)]

but we did achieve a lot. We got Andre to cancel his upcoming tattoo appointment.

[Bethenny Frankel]

Did he confirm that?

[Alexis]

Are we sure?

[Brooke]

Yeah.
