Transcript

[Brooke]

Hey, it's Thanksgiving week and we've got you covered with full hour episodes this week.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, who else is pre funking? You gotta eat a turkey every day. So you're still in the connection.

[Alexis]

Oh, start now.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Alexis]

That's really funny.

[Jeffrey]

Or get mashed potatoes every day.

[Brooke]

See, I start with a Cornish game hen and then slowly work my way up.

[Jeffrey]

Then a chicken.

[Brooke]

Yes. Until I'm eating a full turkey all on my own.

[Harper]

Wow.

[Jeffrey]

Pretty soon it'll be ostrich.

[Brooke]

Yeah, yeah, for sure, for sure. Well, we're so glad to have you here and we love to start with your comments because you are number one most thankful.

[Alexis]

Yes, you are. Speaking of Thanksgiving, Anna said, I feel like Jeff is the type of person that has those separation plates at Thanksgiving so his food doesn't touch like a child.

[Jeffrey]

I thought you were talking charger plates. You mean the little like actual.

[Brooke]

I love this.

[Jeffrey]

As a kid raised areas.

[Brooke]

I could see that for Jeff.

[Host Jeff]

Yeah, me too.

[Brooke]

He's not really a mix of food up type of guy.

[Jeffrey]

Oh no, not at all.

[Alexis]

But he's having a plastic kids plate.

[Brooke]

It's like a gold plated.

[Alexis]

Nice one.

[Jeffrey]

And I bet he doesn't even like pour gravy. I bet he has mash and then dips a little bit on the gravy. Doesn't he seem like a gravy dipper?

[Brooke]

So annoying.

[Lilia]

Just kidding.

[Brooke]

We love Jeffrey. All right, you're gonna get lot of them. Here's your full hour right now.

[Host Jeff]

You ever done something so stupid? Oh, it's actually genius. No, it's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.

[Brooke]

Isn't that the whole basis of this show?

[Host Jeff]

Pretty much. Okay, I asked. Cause one very questionable decision just gave us our new hero of the week. His name is Maurice Lawson from Spotsylvania, Virginia. And the other day he. He decided to play the state's lottery pick five game. Oh, very simple too. You just pick out five single digit numbers.

[Brooke]

Okay.

[Host Jeff]

There's two drawings per day. You match the numbers, you win.

[Brooke]

Okay.

[Jeffrey]

It's not like the main lottery.

[Host Jeff]

Well, Maurice purchased four lottery tickets.

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Host Jeff]

And Jose, you're a lottery guy.

[Digital Jake]

Yeah.

[Host Jeff]

Usually when you play the lottery, the strategy is to pick out a few different combinations of numbers. Yes.

[Jordy]

Right?

[Host Jeff]

Yes.

[Jeffrey]

Well, no one picks the same numbers.

[Host Jeff]

Maurice doesn't think like we do. He went with the bold strategy of using the same exact numbers on all four lotto tickets.

[Jeffrey]

That defeats the purpose.

[Host Jeff]

He went 4, 3, 4, 4, 4.

[Brooke]

Wait, four times?

[Host Jeff]

Those were his numbers? Logically. Terrible idea.

[Jeffrey]

That's very dumb.

[Host Jeff]

And trust me, the show is very familiar with terrible bad ideas.

[Brooke]

You know that there's at least five people that are like, I still don't get it. Sounds good to me.

[Host Jeff]

It's like going all in as soon as you walk up to the craps table. Yes, but wouldn't you know it? Those turned out to be the exact winning numbers for the day.

[Jeffrey]

Four, three.

[Host Jeff]

Four, four, four.

[Brooke]

Does that mean he wins four times?

[Host Jeff]

Jeff, here's where it gets interesting. Because on two of Maurice's tickets, he wagered exact order. So both of those win the top payout of $50,000.

[Alexis]

Oh, wait, each?

[Brooke]

He doesn't have to split it each one 50,000.

[Host Jeff]

On the third ticket, he chose any order that won 10 grand. And on the last ticket, he played the 5050 option, which K. So in total, thanks to his very dumb choice, he won a hundred and forty thousand dollars. Wow. In one drawing.

[Jeffrey]

Congratulations.

[Brooke]

That's actually. So we're the idiots. If he would have just bought the one ticket, he'd only won 50,000.

[Host Jeff]

That's right, Maurice.

[Brooke]

Wow.

[Host Jeff]

We are so sorry. Forever doubting your genius. You are our hero of the week.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, my gosh.

[Host Jeff]

Good work, Maurice. Now for him, back to your regularly scheduled stupidity with the shot collar. Question of the day over to Digital Jake to bring our IQs even lower. Let's do it, Jake.

[Digital Jake]

For the last few days, we've been trying to answer the age old question. Does too much self tanning spray literally suck the intelligence out of a human body?

[Alexis]

It's not tanning spray.

[Jeffrey]

Roll on tan.

[Alexis]

It's natural.

[Digital Jake]

We're tackling that question head on by playing three seconds with Alexis.

[Host Jeff]

All right.

[Digital Jake]

It's a game that tests the limits of human knowledge, or lack thereof, in a heart pounding race against the clock that makes the Fast and Furious franchise look like a casual stroll in the park. Alexis only has three seconds to squeeze an answer out of a few remaining brain cells that survived her college years. Will you bet on her or will you not? It's three seconds with Alexis.

[Brooke]

All right.

[Digital Jake]

Okay, we're gonna start with Brooke. Okay, Brooke, your category for Alexis is Famous ponies.

[Brooke]

Ponies?

[Digital Jake]

Yes.

[Lilia]

Okay.

[Digital Jake]

Will Alexis get it right or wrong?

[Brooke]

I'm so torn because if it's like racing horses, I would say no, but if it was My little Ponies, then I would say yes. I think when you say ponies, you're thinking of the cartoon character, so I'm gonna say she knows it.

[Digital Jake]

All right, Brooks. Betting on Alexis to get this right. Alexis, when I Stop reading the question and you hear the timer, you can start answering.

[Lilia]

Okay.

[Joanna]

All right.

[Digital Jake]

In 1982, the toy my Little Pony, I knew it, was created by Hasbro and sold to kids around the world. I'm gonna tell you three of the pony's original names, and you have to pick the one that's made up. Makes sense. I'm gonna give you three. You picked the wrong one. Is it Snuzzle, Butterscotch, or Minty Bottom?

[Host Jeff]

What?

[Alexis]

Oh, Minty Bottom is fake, right?

[Digital Jake]

That is correct, Alexis.

[Brooke]

I wouldn't even know that.

[Digital Jake]

There was a Minty and there was a Blossom, but there was no Minty Bottom.

[Host Jeff]

You gotta go onto those weird dating sites to find Minty Bottom.

[Digital Jake]

Take your word for it, Jeffrey. And we'll also take the questions over to you, Jeff. Okay, your category for Alexis is 90s movies.

[Host Jeff]

Oh, my God. Okay, you guys do a whole thing where Alexis watches old 90s movies and does reviews on them.

[Digital Jake]

Where?

[Host Jeff]

Jeff, on our podcast, the only place.

[Brooke]

You can hear it. You got to go subscribe to our podcast, My Friend's Classic Movie.

[Host Jeff]

Yeah, Yeah. I haven't listened to any of the podcasts. Every time I walk in the studio, she seems thoroughly confused and, like, turned off by every single 90s movie she watches.

[Brooke]

Not true. She enjoyed the Princess Bride because of Princess.

[Alexis]

I said it was okay.

[Brooke]

Yeah, I'm going to say I'm not.

[Host Jeff]

A fan of 90s movies. She's not going to get this right.

[Digital Jake]

Jeff's betting against Alexis again. Alexis, as soon as you hear the timer, you can start guessing.

[Lilia]

All right.

[Digital Jake]

The movie Forrest Gump came out in 1994 and was critically acclaimed among critics and viewers alike. It won a lot of awards. Brooke actually made you watch it this past year, so you should be familiar. Name one other character in it other than Forrest and his love interest, Jenny.

[Host Jeff]

Oh, no.

[Alexis]

Who else is there?

[Jeffrey]

Lieutenant. Lieutenant Jenny. Bubba Garland. Sorry, guys.

[Alexis]

I thought Bubba comes to the restaurant. Oh, no, it's the guy.

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Digital Jake]

Could have named a handful of US Presidents, any historical figure.

[Brooke]

Elvis Presley, for goodness sake.

[Alexis]

I was solid St. Jenny.

[Digital Jake]

Yeah, I had just. Anybody listed here that you could have just.

[Host Jeff]

And his name.

[Jeffrey]

The news reporter that interviews him.

[Alexis]

I didn't really like that movie.

[Host Jeff]

Good work, Alexis. You did me proud.

[Digital Jake]

Yeah, Jeffrey bet against you, and you got it wrong. So Jeff and Brooke are both safe right now.

[Jeffrey]

Wow.

[Brooke]

Okay, it was one you just watched.

[Digital Jake]

Let's move on. Finally, to Jose. All right, Jose, your category for Alexis is children's books.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, I think she likes children's books. And still reads them all the time.

[Brooke]

Oh, really?

[Jeffrey]

I'm gonna say she's going to get this right.

[Digital Jake]

Jose's betting on Alexis. All right, Alexis, your question is in the very famous kids book, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Who was the owner of the chocolate factory?

[Alexis]

Oh, it's Willy Wonka.

[Digital Jake]

That's correct.

[Alexis]

We all got it right.

[Host Jeff]

Oh, my gosh. That was Alexis.

[Digital Jake]

Everybody's safe.

[Host Jeff]

She's smart.

[Alexis]

I'm our new hero of the week.

[Lilia]

Yes.

[Digital Jake]

I will not go that far.

[Host Jeff]

You ever done something so stupid? It's actually genius.

[Digital Jake]

I won't go that far. Alexis. But that was another rousing edition of.

[Jeffrey]

Three seconds with Alexis.

[Brooke]

Hey, go listen to Gen Z versus classic movie on Spotify. Search Brooke and Jeffree.

[Host Jeff]

Now that we all got our predictions right, I think that means Digital Jake is gonna have to take the shock.

[Digital Jake]

Wait, did I invent a game where Alexis is impossible for her to get shocked?

[Host Jeff]

I did not think this through. And so Digital Jake will be getting shocked while singing I Want it that way by Backstreet Boys.

[Digital Jake]

You are my fire.

[Brooke]

Sing it, Jake.

[Digital Jake]

The one what desire.

[Host Jeff]

You can take that on tour. I would pay for that. Was your shot collar. Question of the day. We got your phone tab coming up in just a few minutes.

[Brooke]

Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.

[Host Jeff]

There are certain days where you never forget where you were when the earth shattering news dropped. Jeffrey in the morning.

[Brooke]

That's true.

[Host Jeff]

Today is one of those days.

[Brooke]

What news are you giving to us?

[Host Jeff]

Hold your loved ones tight. Because Campbell's Soup just released its annual poll ranking America's favorite Thanksgiving side dishes. And for the first time in 60 plus years.

[Brooke]

Show me green bean casserole.

[Host Jeff]

Mashed potatoes was not voted number one.

[Digital Jake]

Don't say it's a soup.

[Jeffrey]

Mashed potatoes and butter and gravy.

[Brooke]

The best thing in the world. More than soup.

[Host Jeff]

No, it fell to number two. This behind stuffing.

[Brooke]

Oh, okay. Yeah. I'm sorry. Am I the only one in the room? I'll take stuffing over potatoes.

[Jeffrey]

Do you like wet or dry?

[Brooke]

Oh, wet.

[Jeffrey]

I like wet stuff.

[Host Jeff]

You're a potato family from Idaho.

[Lilia]

That's true.

[Jeffrey]

Idaho.

[Brooke]

I couldn't eat potatoes until I was about 14. I would gag on them. It was like a texture thing.

[Host Jeff]

Yeah, you need to cut them up and chew them. Stop trying to swallow them.

[Brooke]

I didn't even like french fries as a child until my mom showed me to dip it in mayonnaise. And then I was like, oh, God.

[Alexis]

This is what I'm going to remember.

[Host Jeff]

About this very dark day in the Food world. And it gets worse cuz the rest of the top five are. Number three, sweet potatoes.

[Brooke]

Oh so good.

[Host Jeff]

Number four, green bean casserole and number five, Mac and cheese. How is a green vegetable ranked ahead of macaroni and cheese? Is this even America anymore?

[Jeffrey]

It's not, Jeff.

[Host Jeff]

Next year Brooks gluten free matcha kale muffins are gonna be in the top five.

[Brooke]

You are gonna love those. They don't even taste like kale.

[Host Jeff]

Forward the poll found over half of Americans say they like Thanksgiving sides more than the entree portion of the meal.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, I love turkey. Like oh, turkey's mid.

[Alexis]

My family doesn't even do turkey. Mostly just sides, a lot of corn, breasts.

[Jeffrey]

Potatoes. So funny.

[Brooke]

It's like a KFC bread bowl and not shocking.

[Host Jeff]

It's going to be a dark, dark Thanksgiving this year. Now we all know why Laser Stories is coming up right after this.

[Jeffrey]

Hello, it's Laser Stories.

[Host Jeff]

It's the radio segment that's encouraging shoppers to buy the hot new tech toy this year.

[Lilia]

Really?

[Host Jeff]

The gravy fit smartwatch. It counts your steps, tracks your heart rate, and most importantly, dispenses warm gravy out the side every time you hit 500 calories. Screw the potatoes, drip it straight into your mouth with Laser Stories. The segment where we read weird news stories around the globe just like everyone else does. Except we've got a laser those other sauce bosses just don't. This first laser story is out of the place. That's number one in our hearts and number one on the police scanners. Florida. A 41 year old man named Anthony Day was recently spotted marching down the middle of a suburban street smiling and waving. Oh yeah, he was also completely nude.

[Brooke]

He's doing the slow streak. You know, you don't run, you just really show it off.

[Host Jeff]

Yeah, that's the weird turkey trot for sure. On top of that, it wasn't warm out. The temperature was only 36 degrees and Anthony wasn't even wearing socks.

[Harper]

Okay.

[Jeffrey]

Oh wow.

[Brooke]

Well, I mean, that's his excuse, right? That it was cold out? He wanted to make sure that was part of this news story. So everybody in case came across the photos.

[Host Jeff]

Anyway, a driver saw him and they called police. Cops asked Anthony what was going on and he said something about it being a TikTok prank, but he didn't even have a phone on him.

[Brooke]

Where would you keep it, Jeff?

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, there's a. There's a drone above the clouds filming.

[Brooke]

Yeah, sure.

[Host Jeff]

He also didn't want to answer any more questions. To protect his privacy. And initially gave the officers a fake name and a fake address.

[Jeffrey]

To protect his privacy.

[Harper]

Yes.

[Host Jeff]

And he was charged with indecent exposure, disorderly conduct, and resisting an officer without violence. So he was booked in jail still naked.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, my gosh.

[Brooke]

I mean, you're just kind of serving him up, right?

[Host Jeff]

Maybe more impressively, he's still sticking with his story. Telling guards that he's still doing the TikTok challenge and they should smile more cause they're on video.

[Jeffrey]

Guess where the camera is.

[Brooke]

I keep waiting for you to say something about drugs, but I haven't heard that yet.

[Jeffrey]

No, this is just normal Florida behavior.

[Host Jeff]

Typical.

[Brooke]

Sorry.

[Host Jeff]

Next laser story is out of California. Three adult brothers got together recently to clean. Clean out their parents house.

[Brooke]

Oh, goodness.

[Host Jeff]

Their mom had passed away some time ago, and it was time to get things organized and donate stuff to the goodwill. One of the brothers remember that their mom had said she had some rare comics somewhere. Apparently that she had bought when she was nine years old in the depression era of San Francisco.

[Brooke]

That's cool.

[Host Jeff]

So the men looked all over the place and finally found a dozen tucked away in an old box inside the attic.

[Alexis]

Okay, I mean, how much are they worth?

[Host Jeff]

One of the comics was titled Superman Number One from 1939.

[Jeffrey]

No, it's not. The detective comics version turned out to.

[Host Jeff]

Be the very first superhero comic ever produced. Wow.

[Jeffrey]

Way this is priceless.

[Brooke]

Go mom, go.

[Jeffrey]

Wow.

[Host Jeff]

It looked to be in near pristine condition.

[Brooke]

So I thought she mentioned it. You know, if she had it, they would have just tossed a box without looking at it.

[Host Jeff]

Yeah, guys took it to an auction house to have it appraised. And this past weekend, it just sold. Sold for $9.1 million.

[Jordy]

Dang.

[Jeffrey]

Cheap in my book. Cheap in my.

[Brooke]

Looks like they can afford to get somebody else to do the rest of the cleanup.

[Host Jeff]

Yeah, that's a record for a comic book. And it's not even close. The previous one was action comics number one from 1938.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, that's what I thought was that.

[Host Jeff]

One sold for a measly 6 million just last year.

[Brooke]

Yeah, you might as well use it.

[Alexis]

As scraps at that point.

[Host Jeff]

Toilet paper. Let's go to your next laser story out of the hoagie help desk.

[Jeffrey]

Delicious.

[Host Jeff]

It's no secret businesses are kind of struggling right now. But Panera bread has a plan to turn it all around. Oh, and that plan is cutting their tomatoes.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, yeah.

[Brooke]

Is that.

[Jeffrey]

Is that not before an issue?

[Host Jeff]

That's right. They weren't before, but promised by management next year. Every salad offered at Panera will have cut cherry tomatoes.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, the little cherry. Those are like little popables. One biter.

[Brooke]

Well, hey, listen. This is going to turn their whole thing around.

[Host Jeff]

Yeah. This is groundbreaking. It's all part of how they're going to reverse course on cost cutting moves that shrank salads and sandwiches. And that choice backfired big time on them and led to a huge drop in customers and sales.

[Brooke]

So they got into the boardroom and they're like, all right, how are we going to fix this, guys?

[Host Jeff]

That's right. The CEO said the new strategy is the complete opposite. It's called Panera Rides, and it includes plans to refresh old interiors, put more money into labor, open some new locations, and make sandwiches bigger. And cut those darn tomatoes. Take back the White House. Yeah.

[Brooke]

You mean investing in your own business could actually help profits?

[Jeffrey]

Investing in your employees, making them happier?

[Host Jeff]

I know. It sounds crazy to me.

[Lilia]

Yeah.

[Brooke]

It's not gonna work. That's not the American way.

[Host Jeff]

The CEO said we've made the guests chase the cherry tomato around the bowl. But next year, that finally ends.

[Alexis]

Wow.

[Host Jeff]

Can't wait.

[Brooke]

It was the whole reason I didn't get lunch there. You know, it wasn't.

[Host Jeff]

It's a whole new world. Let's go to your final laser story out of Turkey Headquarters.

[Lilia]

Yay.

[Jeffrey]

With the country.

[Host Jeff]

Or the. Or the.

[Jeffrey]

Or the bird.

[Brooke]

Either one.

[Host Jeff]

We're going with the bird on this one. Okay. No matter how serious you are about your diet, the biggest challenge of the year for most people is Thanksgiving. Get in my belly.

[Jeffrey]

It's all carbs.

[Brooke]

You mean challenges. How much can I eat?

[Jordy]

Right?

[Host Jeff]

Sure.

[Jordy]

Yeah.

[Host Jeff]

It's a holiday where it's virtually impossible to count calories.

[Brooke]

Why would you.

[Alexis]

Who does take the day off?

[Jeffrey]

Brooke thinks diet means die from it.

[Host Jeff]

Yes, well, a new report decided to do it for you.

[Jeffrey]

Jeff. Getting heckled.

[Host Jeff]

It looked at how many calories people are downing at the Thanksgiving table.

[Brooke]

Is this the information you're going to.

[Lilia]

Bring to your Thanksgiving?

[Brooke]

Thanksgiving?

[Jeffrey]

Do you know how much calories you just ate? Mashed potatoes, Bite of candy. Yams with 75 calories. You better go hit the treadmill.

[Host Jeff]

My name's Jeff.

[Jeffrey]

That's how I talk.

[Host Jeff]

Okay, you guys, blood sugar is dangerously low right now. Someone needs to feed you a croissant or something.

[Brooke]

Ruin the holiday.

[Lilia]

Jeff, go.

[Host Jeff]

Look, there's good news and bad news from this. First of all, the average American's caloric intake during Thanksgiving is just 2,100 calories.

[Brooke]

And went to the Hospital. Because her belly was hurting.

[Host Jeff]

Okay, it's not.

[Jeffrey]

Not.

[Host Jeff]

That's not that bad.

[Alexis]

One bed of Jerry's pint is like 1500.

[Brooke]

That's got to be before the pie.

[Jeffrey]

In the nutrition to, say, 2,000 calories a day. That's more than.

[Host Jeff]

Actually, according to dietary guidelines in the U.S. adults should consume anywhere between 1600 and 3000 calories per day.

[Jeffrey]

An extra thousand?

[Brooke]

You know, it depends on what size your vehicle is.

[Host Jeff]

You know, it also depends on age and weight and your gender. And maybe Brook's severe addiction to desserts.

[Brooke]

Tell me what a whole pecan pie is, and I will kill you.

[Host Jeff]

Yeah. Now, of course that's how.

[Brooke]

That's what I'm gonna eat.

[Host Jeff]

Those stats are for the whole day, so the Thanksgiving number is only in range if it's your only meal. All of Thursday.

[Brooke]

Okay.

[Host Jeff]

With no snacking, no leftovers. And I'm gonna say something you're not gonna like.

[Brooke]

What?

[Host Jeff]

No booze. I know, Brooke. I'm sorry.

[Brooke]

Yeah. And you gotta eat a little breakfast because you gotta prime your stomach. Yeah, you can't go on any. It'll shrink. It won't be big enough to take it all in.

[Jeffrey]

She's right.

[Host Jeff]

So, yeah, that. All that. That's the bad news part. Which just proves my point. Everybody has to be careful around Thanksgiving. Like this guy. He saw the slow cooker out and thought it was a tanning bed. Crawled right inside there. I am saying be careful, okay? And that sound means Laser Stories has come to an end for the day. And also, our turtle appetizers are ready, so let's enjoy Thanksgiving. You're the one who said eat more, Brooke. Turtle to means Laser Stories has come to an end for the day. We'll do it again same time on Wednesday.

[Brooke]

Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.

[Host Jeff]

Before today, I thought the worst kind of first date was one where your parent randomly shows up uninvited.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, that is a nightmare, though.

[Brooke]

Does that happen to you? I feel like it has.

[Lilia]

Yeah.

[Brooke]

That's a little descriptive.

[Host Jeff]

I invite her to those. But, man, I was wrong, cuz. We got a voicemail from a guy who. Who planned a whole date night that actively involves his own dad.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, my gosh.

[Host Jeff]

And then it only gets weirder when he reveals the rest of the plan. Plus a new conspiracy theory we've never heard before. And at the dark center of it is a popular kitchen product we all have used.

[Jeffrey]

We're hearing it. It's definitely true.

[Host Jeff]

You're gonna hear it when we play all these messages coming up. In a brand new loser line right after this. Hey, girl, what's up with you? Wait a minute.

[Brooke]

Is this the right number? It's the loser line.

[Host Jeff]

Come on, just call me back if you haven't heard the loser line before. It works like this. Let's say a guy approaches you while you're out at the club and uses this charming pickup line on you. Hey, girl. Oh, I saw you over there, and I. I'm wondering, are you a campfire?

[Jordy]

What?

[Host Jeff]

Cause I think I want some more BT Dubs. My name is Barnaby. Barnaby Wild. Surprisingly single. After he drops that line, whatever you do, don't tell him to pitch his own tent somewhere. Instead, tell him you want to play sleeping bear and you'll be the jar of honey. And that's when you leave him the number of the loser line. So hopefully he leaves an awkward voicemail we can play over the air voicemails like this one.

[Harper]

Next message. Hi, Drew. It's Joanna. Look, I just want to. I want to apologize and explain again. I just wasn't paying attention because I was on my phone, and I didn't realize that it was the men's restroom that I was walking into. Okay. I just. I went to the last stall and I opened it, and that's where we, you know, met, I guess, officially, you know, for the first time. What's important here, Drew, is I just want you to know that I was only running out screaming creeper, because I thought that you were in the women's restroom, which I feel really stupid saying now, because clearly I was the creeper in that situation. So, anyway, I just. I want to make it up to you somehow. Like, maybe. Maybe I can take you out to dinner. And I guess, I promise if either of us needs to use the restroom, we'll go into separate ones and I'll read the signs better, I guess. I don't know. Next message.

[Jeffrey]

That's the funniest image of a girl walking into the men's room, opening a stall and going, greenberg, get out of here. I knew I'd get up and go. I'd be like, I'm sorry.

[Brooke]

The sad thing is, is if no one witnessed it, they probably actually banned the guy from the place.

[Host Jeff]

You know what I mean?

[Brooke]

Because they're like. He's like, no, no, no. I swear. Yeah, right.

[Jeffrey]

This guy was in the bathroom stall.

[Lilia]

I swear.

[Host Jeff]

Although walking in on someone while they're in the toilet is Brooke's love language.

[Brooke]

So it's interesting that she's found him attractive in that position. She was kind of coming on.

[Host Jeff]

Yes, that bar had to offer that.

[Harper]

Next message.

[Joanna]

Hey, I hope this isn't gonna ruin things, but my dad's gonna drive us on our date, and it's not what you think, like, you know, like DUI or. Well, it's.

[Jordy]

Well, actually.

[Joanna]

All right, it's a dui, but, yeah, I. I mean, I don't want to make this weird, but I was thinking, like, if my dad's coming, maybe would you want to, like, invite your mom to come? Yeah, I don't know if she's, like, single or anything, but since my dad's coming and if your mom was there, too, you know, maybe that would be cool, because my dad's dropping us off at the burger place. He's probably just gonna, like, sit there and wait till we're done, and then after, he'll take us back home, so. I mean, we could do whatever we want there. He's. He's pretty relaxed about, like, rules and stuff like that. He's not gonna bug us, so I don't know. If you want to ask your mom, just let me know if she's down for something like that.

[Harper]

Next message.

[Brooke]

I just feel like somebody needs to explain, like, ride shares to him.

[Lilia]

Yeah.

[Brooke]

You know what I mean?

[Alexis]

Like, this is a chance.

[Brooke]

This is a moment that you spring for that, like, I understand you can't drive. You don't have your Dr. Driver's license. You made a terrible choice. But, yeah, let's take care of it.

[Harper]

In a different way.

[Jeffrey]

May not be worth saving the 20.

[Host Jeff]

Yeah.

[Lilia]

Yeah.

[Host Jeff]

But you know what's even better double date idea than that?

[Brooke]

What?

[Host Jeff]

Is gathering around the iPad with your family and watching the Brooke and Jeffrey Tick tock.

[Brooke]

Why are you shovel dating with your family?

[Host Jeff]

I'm just going off of this. So many strange and sensual segments are available to consume for brothers and sisters and mommy.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, I don't want to go there.

[Host Jeff]

Make sure you watch the video of us in studio reacting to our favorite loser line of the week before you hit the lights and spin that bottle.

[Alexis]

Baby, you're gonna get us taken down.

[Lilia]

I don't even.

[Brooke]

I don't even want to have family dinner with my own family after you said all that.

[Host Jeff]

I'm just showing you how to get it hot. All right. Turning up the heat by going back to these clips. Oh, yeah.

[Harper]

Next message.

[Lilia]

Busted.

[Harper]

Okay, ladanian, I don't know why you felt the need to lie to me about who you are, and I'm feeling pretty stupid for believing you, but did you think I was not gonna go home and look you up. Like, I thought a white guy's name would be Ladanian and he was a star running back in the NFL. You do realize that all that information is available on the Internet? Yes. So you totally freaking lied to me. And I really, really wanted to believe you because I just thought, well, even though he's short, maybe out of shape, maybe he's like super fast or crafty on the field, I really wanted to believe you, but absolute bull. And your little friend Levy or whatever the hell his name was, pretty sure he was not the person that you said he was either. So lose my number. Don't text me. Good luck with your freaking fake NFL career, idiot.

[Host Jeff]

So you're telling me there's two white, pudgy guys running around telling women they were pro NFL running backs named LA, Damian and Le'Veonian, Thomason and Levy. They're giving out the loser line to these women afterwards. That's the ultimate troll.

[Jeffrey]

She's like, look, you may have faked your career, but I have your number.

[Host Jeff]

Number.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, I got the last laugh.

[Host Jeff]

She believed it for a second.

[Brooke]

I mean, that's the scariest part, is that people are buying into the story.

[Harper]

Next message.

[Joanna]

Dude, I swear, I've never been so shocked in my life. And, like, I'm sorry that I had to walk out of the bar on you after like 15 minutes, but it was just like, who lives like that? Seriously?

[Lilia]

No one.

[Joanna]

And I mean absolutely no one is using Brita filters anymore. I can't even believe you still have one. I actually care about what goes into my body, okay? So that's why I drive out like once a week to the well outside my grandpa's house, okay? They get pure, natural, non government treated water. Do you not realize the British part of the Chinese government and they're making them every time you buy a brittle. Congratulations. You just founded the new Chinese nuclear weapon, so good job.

[Brooke]

I love conspiracy theories. Brita, filters are gonna.

[Jeffrey]

That's the new thing.

[Host Jeff]

Who knew that Brita was making the nuclear weapons for all of China's military?

[Jeffrey]

That nuclear weaponry tastes so crisp. Yeah, very delicious.

[Brooke]

Can't wait till he gets dysentery from his grandfather.

[Host Jeff]

Remember, listen to loser line regularly at this time every week. And make sure you subscribe to the Brooke and Jeffrey tick tock.

[Brooke]

Yeah, no. No filters here, Jeff.

[Host Jeff]

No, you can hear all of your favorite loser lines right there. Now we're gonna do a phone tap right after this.

[Brooke]

Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.

[Host Jeff]

Today we call a woman who's a rare type.

[Brooke]

Okay.

[Host Jeff]

She doesn't like going out to restaurants or to big sporting events or concerts. No, she prefers spending her time at the library.

[Brooke]

Oh, okay.

[Host Jeff]

According to her partner, Steve, she checks out books all the time and really loves it. The only thing she doesn't like is the city recently reduced the hours that they're open.

[Brooke]

I mean, seriously, it is not easy to get to the library these days.

[Host Jeff]

Made her very upset. Now the city's about to make another major change that she's probably not gonna love. You're gonna hear it in your phone tap.

[Brooke]

Right now it's another phone tap.

[Host Jeff]

Weekday mornings on the 20s.

[Harper]

Hello?

[Host Jeff]

Hi, is this Abigail?

[Lilia]

Yeah, speaking.

[Host Jeff]

Hi, Abigail, this is Dave from the public library. I hope it's okay that I give you a call. Has found your number in our system.

[Lilia]

Sure. What is this about?

[Host Jeff]

Well, I know that you're always one of our best, most loyal patrons, and we're really appreciative. You always return books on time every week. We wanted to thank you for that.

[Lilia]

Oh, of course.

[Host Jeff]

Now, we do need to speak with you about some changes that are going to be coming down the pike over here.

[Lilia]

What kind of changes?

[Host Jeff]

Well, as you're aware, the city is in a little bit of a budget deficit again.

[Lilia]

Yeah, probably for the 28th year in a row. They can't seem to get anything right.

[Host Jeff]

Yeah, you know, that is fair. They don't manage their money very well. But as you know, the library does fall under the city umbrella. And so while we will not be upping the late fees like some people.

[Lilia]

I always return my books on time anyway.

[Host Jeff]

Right. No, I understand that. I'm just saying, starting next month, we're going to be instituting a cover charge similar to a bar or a club. A cover charge?

[Lilia]

What does that mean?

[Host Jeff]

Have you not been to a bar or a club? I guess you could go to the library, so probably not.

[Lilia]

It's none of your business, frankly. Can you just elaborate?

[Host Jeff]

Well, so if you have a book that you've reserved, let's say, and you just want to walk inside, that'll be $7 at the door.

[Lilia]

$7?

[Host Jeff]

Well, $10 on the weekends because, you know, Saturdays and Sundays are our most popular days.

[Lilia]

What kind of half wooded idea is that?

[Host Jeff]

We just. We need to find a way to supplement the deficit because we don't have enough money to stay open.

[Lilia]

So you're going to punish people for going to the library?

[Host Jeff]

No, not punish. We're gonna charge people, not hit them.

[Lilia]

This is not okay. You cannot charge people to Go into the library. I'm there every week and I wouldn't pay a quarter to get in.

[Host Jeff]

You're right, you wouldn't. You'd have to pay $7 or $10 on the weekends.

[Lilia]

Hey, smart ass, that was just an example. I wouldn't pay a century.

[Host Jeff]

Well, good, because we wouldn't accept cents. We would only do.

[Lilia]

I got it.

[Host Jeff]

We'd only accept credit cards. Okay, I'm sorry. You just. You seem a little bit upset.

[Lilia]

Yes, of course I'm upset. I go to the library every week. I take books out every week. I return them every week. Okay, now you're telling me I need to pay you to come into the library?

[Host Jeff]

Yeah, exactly. I've heard all that already. I'm just trying to relay this information to you.

[Lilia]

Well, it's unacceptable.

[Host Jeff]

Well, you need to accept it because it's happening.

[Lilia]

I will not accept it.

[Host Jeff]

You know what? I'm gonna let you think about it for five seconds and then check back in with you.

[Lilia]

It does not matter how long I think about. It is unacceptable.

[Host Jeff]

3, 2, 1. Have you accepted it now?

[Lilia]

No, I have not accepted it because. Is there a manager I can talk to?

[Host Jeff]

I'm the last employee who works here. So what? You know what I'm going to do for you? If you come in today, I'll knock a dollar off of your cover charge.

[Lilia]

I already told you, I will not be paying to come into the library.

[Host Jeff]

It's only going to be $6. Do you accept it? Give me five seconds. Five.

[Harper]

Edie.

[Lilia]

I do not accept it.

[Host Jeff]

Three.

[Lilia]

Oh, my God. What is wrong with you?

[Host Jeff]

All right, I'm knocking it back up to $7. I'm sorry. The deal has gone away.

[Lilia]

I don't even know what to say.

[Host Jeff]

Also, I don't really know if this matters at this point, but in an effort to connect with the younger generations here, we're going to be rebranding and no longer call this the library.

[Lilia]

That's the dumbest idea I've ever heard in my life.

[Host Jeff]

We're going to be calling it Dee's Books.

[Harper]

This has to be a joke.

[Host Jeff]

That's books with a Z.

[Lilia]

There is no way that you or the city or anyone in this world could come up with an idea this asinine.

[Host Jeff]

Well, you're right. It wasn't me or the city. But your partner Steve might be asinine to come up with it.

[Lilia]

Oh, my God.

[Host Jeff]

Yeah, your partner Steve emailed our show, Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning and he said he want us to do a prank phone call. On you.

[Harper]

Oh, okay.

[Host Jeff]

Steve said that you love the library so much and you really hate change, so he wanted us to mess with you, and we thought, okay, well, maybe we can combine both.

[Lilia]

Both? Oh, yeah. You had me going. That had to be the dumbest idea I ever heard. Charging people a cover with a library.

[Host Jeff]

These books.

[Lilia]

I don't even know what's happening right now.

[Host Jeff]

Me either, honestly. I'll see you at the library, all right?

[Lilia]

I hope so.

[Host Jeff]

Probably in the self help section. Okay.

[Brooke]

Wake up every morning with phone tabs. Weekday mornings on the 20s. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning on.

[Host Jeff]

A first date at a nice restaurant. What could go wrong with the meal?

[Jeffrey]

Not a lot. You probably got a chef cooking for you.

[Host Jeff]

I mean, like, you eat it way too fast, and now you're just staring at them for the next 50 minutes doing nothing.

[Brooke]

Yeah, it's like every dinner date with my husband, that man shovels the food.

[Host Jeff]

Or maybe your card gets declined and your mommy has to come and pay for you. Although kind of a good flex that your mom loves you enough to do that. So there are plenty of options, and we've actually heard a lot of them on this show. But one of our listeners says he made a different restaurant faux pas and it happened early while he was still holding the menu.

[Brooke]

Yike.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, no.

[Host Jeff]

We're gonna find out if it derailed his chances in your second date update. Right after this second date update, the results are in. In it's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning because recent studies have shown about 50% of couples now meet online compared to just 22% only five years ago.

[Brooke]

That's crazy. That's a huge jump. It's like the pandemic, like, super.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, it made it really normal, really quick.

[Host Jeff]

Yeah. So now, going forward, Brooke, if you want to spice up the relationship with your husband, you're going to have to make him a dating profile.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, okay. At least you get to pick Is.

[Brooke]

You know, I think I could make him a really good one. I mean, to be honest.

[Host Jeff]

Well, I think joke's on you. He already has one.

[Brooke]

Wait, what?

[Host Jeff]

Apparently, you guys are. You're looking for a third right now, according to him. And we're not going to go into that because. Wait a minute. I want to talk right now.

[Jeffrey]

I'm excited for that day.

[Host Jeff]

To Jordy, the listener who wrote into our show because apparently he met a girl out in real life bucking all of the latest trends.

[Brooke]

Dude, you're in the minority now.

[Host Jeff]

Irl, Jordy, good work. Welcome to the show.

[Jordy]

Hey, guys.

[Brooke]

Hey, so where'd you meet this woman?

[Jordy]

So I met Harper at this German bar. Actually, you know, I was playing bocce ball. Do you guys know what that is?

[Brooke]

Bocce ball.

[Alexis]

I've heard of it.

[Jeffrey]

On my rooftop, on my apartment complex.

[Host Jeff]

Like, you toss big. These, like, big, colorful balls onto, like, a field, and then you try to toss other balls towards the ball.

[Jeffrey]

One goes farther and quick.

[Brooke]

It's an Italian game playing at a German bar, but whatever.

[Host Jeff]

Yeah, yeah. Okay. So you said her name was Harper?

[Jordy]

Yeah, yeah, she was actually a waitress there.

[Brooke]

Oh.

[Lilia]

Oh.

[Host Jeff]

I assumed that she was gonna be, like, playing in the stall next to you or something like that, right?

[Jordy]

No, no, no, no, no. She was super cute. And, I mean, she was super helpful, too, because I actually had to have this, like, long talk with her to tell her to cut off one of my drunk friends.

[Alexis]

You cut off your friend?

[Brooke]

Lame.

[Jeffrey]

You had to do it, like, nicely. Like, tell them I told you.

[Brooke]

I'm sure that's happened to you, and you just don't.

[Host Jeff]

Yeah, totally.

[Jeffrey]

If you have good friends, friends, if.

[Host Jeff]

Anything, probably makes you look kind of good to her because you seem like a responsible guy. Oh, yeah, exactly.

[Jordy]

It's like watching Jerry Springer. It's like you look better than those people.

[Brooke]

Oh, can I ask real quick? Was there an indication that she was interested in you? Because cute waitresses get hit on all.

[Jeffrey]

The time, and they smile and they do their job, and everyone thinks they're getting hit.

[Host Jeff]

I know. Brooke tries to get them to be the third in her relationship.

[Brooke]

I mean, Harper is a hotel name.

[Host Jeff]

But again, sorry, that is a conversation for another day. Tell us, how did you work Harper? That's not the right way. How did you get Harper to agree to a date? There it is.

[Jordy]

Well, I just simply asked her on the way out. I was like, look, are you single? And she said, who's asking? And I said, I am.

[Brooke]

Good response.

[Jordy]

Yeah. And I just said, I'd love to take you out sometime. And she actually gave me her number.

[Brooke]

Oh, dude, if we dive. Listen, it's our loser line.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, we are on the loser line.

[Lilia]

Awesome.

[Host Jeff]

Is that your only meetup, or did you guys actually have a date?

[Jordy]

No, no, we had a date.

[Host Jeff]

Oh, okay.

[Lilia]

Okay.

[Host Jeff]

So it is her number.

[Jeffrey]

Because we all thought, oh, she probably just gave you your number to get.

[Host Jeff]

Rid of it, right?

[Brooke]

So what did you do?

[Jordy]

We went out for drinks, little food. You know, she looked amazing. I mean, when she was, like, out of her waiter outfit.

[Alexis]

Didn't need to mention the second part.

[Host Jeff]

She Knows.

[Lilia]

Yeah.

[Jordy]

I mean, I did have one embarrassing moment on the date. We tried to order some quiche Lorraine and I said quickie loran. You know I didn't take French in high school. Like, excuse me.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, well, you're also clashing with the bocce ball and the German don't want.

[Brooke]

To be elitist by being able to say quiche.

[Host Jeff]

That's a tough word. What was her reaction?

[Jordy]

She totally laughed it off. It was a little embarrassing. But after that, like, I think it kind of of lighten the mood a little bit. And from there, like, the day was great.

[Brooke]

Especially if you can be self deprecating about it.

[Lilia]

Yeah.

[Jeffrey]

You know what I mean?

[Brooke]

Like, it could almost even turn into like your inside joke together.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah. Oh, let me remember the next thing I speak German and then you just ruin it. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Jordy]

So we actually, like kissed at the end of the day, so that was nice. And she was the one who texted me that night saying that she got home safe and that she couldn't wait to see me. So, like, it seems super clear. Right?

[Brooke]

Are you sure you didn't read that wrong too?

[Lilia]

There's no way to read.

[Jordy]

No, no, it was in English, I think.

[Host Jeff]

Okay, so you. You've. You've had a solid first date. You kissed her at the end of it, she's the one saying, I can't wait to hang out again.

[Brooke]

And how long has it been?

[Jordy]

It's been like 10 days or so.

[Jeffrey]

Well, something must have happened in her life. Like, I already have a feeling. This is not your fault.

[Brooke]

Oh, I can see that. Like, we're. I don't know, maybe work got crazy or there's a family emergency emergency, or.

[Jeffrey]

She rekindled something and was just like, oh, who knows?

[Host Jeff]

But what's happened in those 10 days? That's a long time. Have you asked her? Like, what have you done?

[Lilia]

Yeah.

[Jordy]

Yeah. I mean, there was one time where I thought one date was gonna work, but then she asked about a different date, so I. I don't know.

[Alexis]

Okay, so yeah, hot bocce ball player came into her work.

[Jordy]

Might be.

[Host Jeff]

Okay, well, we can reach out to Harper for you and see if she agrees to going out with you one more time. If not, then you might have a backup option because Brooke and her husband, you know.

[Brooke]

But in the meantime, Jeffrey is not online.

[Host Jeff]

Oh, that's right.

[Brooke]

Yeah, we only like the online one.

[Host Jeff]

Yeah, you need to be able to keep some distance.

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Host Jeff]

Sorry. But you know what? We'll work on Harper first and try and get you Your second date update. Right after this second date update. We're in the middle of a second date update with our listener, Jordy and Jordyn. Jordy likes cute waitresses at German bocce ball bars. He likes to mispronounce quiche Lorraine just to seem vulnerable and flawed.

[Brooke]

How did he say it? Kiki, somehow.

[Host Jeff]

Yeah, you said quickie. What did you say, Jordy?

[Jordy]

I said quickie. Loran.

[Host Jeff]

Quickie. Loran. And he really likes to receive texts saying, I can't wait to see you again, because that's exactly what his date Harper said to him after they went out. So why is she not jumping at the chance to hang out again?

[Brooke]

Yeah, she's the one that said she wanted to.

[Host Jeff]

Jordy, you think there's another guy who mispronounces French words even worse than you do? Maybe that's her thing.

[Jordy]

Yeah, maybe.

[Lilia]

Yeah.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, he tried to order me a quabernet. Savin gone.

[Host Jeff]

Oh, go.

[Brooke]

Oh, yeah.

[Host Jeff]

That's hot. Yeah.

[Brooke]

I don't even know how you mispronounce du jour.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, how do you you so much? You can't mispronounce it?

[Jordy]

I mean, look, Harper's a really cute waitress. She probably has a lot of guys asking her out.

[Brooke]

Oh, my God. I bet she's saying no 50 times.

[Jeffrey]

A day like every other table.

[Brooke]

It's so annoying. But that's why you're so special, is that she said yes to you and you guys had a great day and.

[Jeffrey]

She went out and she said she.

[Jordy]

Yeah, but, like, look, guys, if that's it, if that's the thing where she has another guy, like, just convince her that I'm a good guy.

[Host Jeff]

Oh, okay.

[Alexis]

Hopefully she thinks that already.

[Jeffrey]

You know what?

[Brooke]

In the five minutes we've spent with you, you totally will vouch for you.

[Host Jeff]

Thank you.

[Brooke]

You're welcome.

[Jeffrey]

Like a good guy. I mean, honestly, not even kidding.

[Host Jeff]

Yeah, a lot of good guys insist how good they are.

[Brooke]

Yeah, that's right.

[Jeffrey]

Okay, maybe that is a little.

[Host Jeff]

So we're just gonna trust you on that. And we're gonna call Harper. Let's see if she answers. Okay. All right. I don't know you. I mean, you seem nice from a little bit. We'd be spoken.

[Jeffrey]

Okay, you just stay where you're at, though, buddy.

[Host Jeff]

We don't know you.

[Brooke]

Yeah, let's get her on the phone.

[Digital Jake]

Here we go.

[Harper]

Hello?

[Host Jeff]

Hey, is this Harper?

[Harper]

Yeah. Who's calling?

[Host Jeff]

We're a radio show calling called Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.

[Lilia]

Hi.

[Host Jeff]

Good morning.

[Lilia]

Hi.

[Harper]

Harper.

[Host Jeff]

That half of the Room isn't very excited to talk to you, obviously, but.

[Alexis]

I don't think she's excited to talk to us.

[Host Jeff]

This half of the room is very confused.

[Brooke]

Just don't want to come in too hot.

[Harper]

Jeff, what are you calling for?

[Brooke]

See?

[Host Jeff]

Yeah, we're working. Yeah, this is. This is something we do called a second date update, and one of our listeners named Jordy asked us to reach out to you.

[Brooke]

Ringing any bells?

[Jeffrey]

I said.

[Harper]

What do you. What do you want me to say?

[Host Jeff]

You remember Jordy? Okay, we're just trying to help him out because according to Jordy, he says he's been putting in a lot of effort trying to figure out a good time that would work for you to meet up just because he felt like you guys bonded, connected.

[Brooke]

Is it just something where the schedules aren't aligning?

[Harper]

No, there was just like a lot of effort.

[Lilia]

That's kind of a problem.

[Brooke]

What?

[Jeffrey]

Too much effort?

[Brooke]

What do you mean?

[Host Jeff]

Yeah. Can you elaborate?

[Harper]

I mean, like, on the surface, when I met him, like, I was working and then we went and hung out and like, he was a good guy and. Well, that's kind of like what I was looking for.

[Brooke]

Yeah, like he's what you were looking for.

[Harper]

I mean, yeah, like, I thought so.

[Brooke]

Okay, so what changed?

[Harper]

So we hung out and it. It wasn't until after that I realized something was off.

[Brooke]

What?

[Harper]

Like, I had every intention to go out again.

[Host Jeff]

Okay, okay, what's the problem?

[Jeffrey]

Is it something about him?

[Lilia]

Yeah.

[Harper]

He gave me three options to hang out all in a row. Like Friday, Saturday, Sunday. Like, why is he so available?

[Host Jeff]

Wait, what do you.

[Jeffrey]

Hold on. Did he want a three day date or he was just like, pick a day and we can do that one?

[Harper]

No, he was like, these are all the days that I'm available. And I have this belief, me and my friends do that there's a guy between the age 24 and 32 ish. If they have that much time to hang out, it really means that he's a loser.

[Brooke]

Yikes.

[Host Jeff]

You're calling him a loser because he gave you multiple options of times where. Or he wants to hang out because he likes you.

[Harper]

Yeah, because like, they're all in a row and it's like, okay, he should be grinding away, planning for his future, maybe not working or like working on a promotion or getting somewhere.

[Brooke]

Maybe he is like, in my mind, you're a waitress. So he's probably just trying to give you options because it's probably hard to align schedules. Like, he probably figures you work on the weekends.

[Harper]

I Mean, that sounds like an excuse he'd use.

[Host Jeff]

I guess it sounds like he's doing it for you. Because nowadays we hear from a lot of women who tell us guys don't put in enough effort. They want the easy thing. They don't really care. Yeah, Jordy sounds like the total opposite. Like he's willing to do whatever just.

[Alexis]

To see you plans the other days that you say you can't.

[Harper]

Yeah, but he didn't say that. He was like, I'm wide open. And I'm like, well, what else are you doing with your life? Just pursuing me.

[Host Jeff]

Okay, What?

[Jeffrey]

Okay, sadly, this makes sense, but doesn't mean we agree with it.

[Brooke]

I don't know that it does make sense to me. He's not a loser. Like, you liked him. You liked everything about him. You said that he checked all your boxes. Basically, yeah.

[Harper]

I mean, he did. He actually had decent hygiene, which.

[Host Jeff]

See? Okay, but he's too available for you.

[Brooke]

Maybe that's why his hygiene. So good. He has got time for it.

[Alexis]

I mean, you don't want to date someone who wants to hang out every single day. Sometimes, like, they need to have a life.

[Host Jeff]

Well, sure. Oh, yeah.

[Harper]

And especially in the beginning, getting to know who they are. And it just seems like he's just wide open to do whatever. And I'm like, but we're trying to build who we are as people.

[Brooke]

What would you want his response to be when you say, hey, I can't wait to see you again? What should he have written back to you?

[Harper]

He shouldn't have. He should have just let me hang for a bit.

[Host Jeff]

Okay, now that was a red flag.

[Brooke]

Okay, well, it's kind of like a game.

[Host Jeff]

I don't. I don't even want to tell you that this. Because. Oh, no, it's not that. He's, like, super available to talk to you at any time. That's not what this is.

[Brooke]

He was so busy. It's like we had to call him so many times just in the middle.

[Host Jeff]

Of his extremely hectic day. He's taken a little bit of time to jump on the phone right now to talk to you because Jordy's there.

[Jordy]

Hey, Harper.

[Harper]

Oh, so you've been on the phone.

[Host Jeff]

Just a little bit.

[Harper]

Yeah, just a little bit.

[Host Jeff]

Like, barely.

[Jordy]

I heard you call me a loser who I has too much time on his hands.

[Harper]

Well, yeah. They asked me to be honest. And I was honest. They asked me what was up.

[Brooke]

I mean, that's what Jordy wanted. He wanted to know he did want.

[Jordy]

So you think I'm a loser because I want to go out a second time. Like that part doesn't make any sense.

[Harper]

It's just. It's just a little red flaggy to be able to hang out three nights in a row. And like, my perfect guy would never do that. He shouldn't have all the time in the world for me, you know?

[Brooke]

I'm sorry, my perfect guy shouldn't have all the time in the world for me.

[Jordy]

To be totally clear, I didn't want to hang out with you three nights in a row. I gave you three options.

[Harper]

Okay, you're just being a little way too chill at this time of your life. You know, now's the time to work hard and we're gonna chill later.

[Brooke]

Yeah, well, girl, you're serving steins in a German bar. Like, I mean, I'm just saying, like.

[Alexis]

Let'S not hate on the probably makes more than I do here.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, let's be real.

[Brooke]

Well, it's just like, what are you doing to do the same thing?

[Harper]

Well, you don't even know me, so how about you shut your mouth?

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, Brooke, shut your mouth.

[Host Jeff]

Who are you complaining about people bringing you alcohol out of anybody in this room?

[Brooke]

I think being a server is a great job, but she's like expecting him to like do all these big great things like jobs. What are you doing to plan for your future, Brooke?

[Host Jeff]

Stay in your lane and keep not tipping people after they give you great service.

[Brooke]

Yes.

[Jeffrey]

Shut up. Don't talk on the radio, lady.

[Brooke]

I just like, I hate, hate when people do that.

[Host Jeff]

This is about Jordy. Jordy. She's concerned that you're too free and you're too available. Prove to her that that's not true and how much you got going on.

[Brooke]

Tell her you don't want to date.

[Jordy]

Yeah, I mean, it sounds like that would be more attractive to you. I mean, I. I just don't understand why you want to play these games like we met in real life. I thought you were a good person.

[Jeffrey]

Okay, that's actually a point.

[Host Jeff]

How busy are you right now?

[Jordy]

I mean, I. I'm kind of busy. I'm not totally busy.

[Jeffrey]

I mean, I gotta be busier. You're super busy.

[Lilia]

Right, Right.

[Host Jeff]

Slam.

[Jordy]

Okay, like, look, I'm looking to get busier.

[Host Jeff]

I'm looking to fill my schedule.

[Lilia]

Right?

[Harper]

See? Red flaggy much?

[Brooke]

I think he sounds like a nice guy.

[Host Jeff]

That's not what she wants. She doesn't want that, Brooke.

[Brooke]

But you did want it that night.

[Jordy]

Look, look, Harper, let's rewind. Pretend I didn't call you for two weeks? Are you turned on now?

[Harper]

It hasn't been two weeks. It's only been 10 days.

[Host Jeff]

We're imagining, Harper.

[Harper]

I mean, the reality is you sent me a lot of freaking texts with like a lot of freaking dates and now you have me on a radio show.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, it does look bad.

[Brooke]

Gives her the ick, huh?

[Jeffrey]

It's pretty bad.

[Host Jeff]

You know what the thing is? We made him do it.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, we got all the time in the world.

[Host Jeff]

He didn't even want to be here.

[Brooke]

He didn't have time to.

[Host Jeff]

No. But he was kind enough to take a little bit of time out to do this with us. Just so that I could ask you if you would like to see Jordyn one more time and we would pay for that date. I don't even know if he's free. Honestly, Jordy, are you even free?

[Brooke]

Interested?

[Jordy]

Not anymore. I'm. I'm all booked up for a while now.

[Alexis]

Finally he got it.

[Host Jeff]

I'm sorry.

[Jeffrey]

Minute she's like, so I'll see you next weekend?

[Harper]

I mean, I'm not really into these games that he's playing with me and I'm not going to fall.

[Jordy]

Look in the mirror, sweetie.

[Host Jeff]

Oh God.

[Jeffrey]

That was talking like Brooke.

[Host Jeff]

Now this is not good. Okay, you know what? No second date, all right?

[Jeffrey]

We are not tipping them either.

[Host Jeff]

This is going bad. Look at Jeffrey in the morning. Got a text into 78592 that says, with that outlook, I hope she's ready to die alone.

[Brooke]

Oh my God. I mean, honestly, I think she just doesn't actually want a boyfriend. Yeah, you know, like everybody's saying that she's like looking. She says she's looking for something, but she found out it cuz like what?

[Jeffrey]

She just wants to be wanted.

[Host Jeff]

And the outlook that I think they're referring to is the theory that if a guy says he's available to hang out with you multiple nights in a row, that means he's a loser and must have absolutely nothing going on in his life.

[Jeffrey]

Can I correct that? Cuz when girls try to hang out with me and I tell them I'm sorry. I got two jobs, I'm streaming video games every single night. It also deters that. Don't act like a busy guy. Cannot deter women.

[Jordy]

I.

[Host Jeff]

It also matters what you're busy doing.

[Brooke]

I got my DND club on Friday and Saturday night, so I can't hang.

[Jeffrey]

Out, but I make tons of money.

[Host Jeff]

Hello?

[Lilia]

Hello? Hello?

[Host Jeff]

You know, guys just give up. It's going to be easier if you just quit because Actually, they're going to feel more attracted to you that you've given up on them.

[Jeffrey]

Really hard to get.

[Brooke]

Not define all women based on her. I mean, just too late.

[Host Jeff]

She speaks for all women.

[Jeffrey]

And now we.

[Alexis]

Just got canceled on by two guys.

[Lilia]

Alexis.

[Host Jeff]

Who saw that coming. But you know what? If you need help with your dating life, go ahead, email the show. We'll call that person who isn't calling you back. And go check out all of our podcasts. We are the home of the second date. Update wherever you get yours at. Brooke and Jeffrey.

[Brooke]

Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.

[Host Jeff]

Oh, this is your final reminder. Take your last hot selfies of the year now before your body is ruined by cramming your face with pounds upon pounds of delicious holiday foods.

[Lilia]

Yay.

[Host Jeff]

Because, yes, eating season is coming down the pike.

[Brooke]

Oh, yeah.

[Host Jeff]

And we're going to celebrate that by undoing the top button on all of our pants and playing a game guaranteed to clog your arteries and stop your hearts in the good way.

[Brooke]

I can't believe we're not just taking our pants off.

[Host Jeff]

Trying to have a little bit of decency.

[Jeffrey]

Still remember their lame.

[Host Jeff]

We're going to do it in a brand new edition of Riffing Around. Yes, a special eating season version of the game that tests your musical knowledge and asks, are you smarter than a radio dj? Probably. But now you can actually prove it when we play Riffing around coming up right after this. Do you smell that? Either Brook's got another bun in the Dutch oven, or it's time for a fresh baked edition of Riffing Around. Riffing around, where I play the instrumental of a famous song and my co hosts apparently take off their clothes.

[Jeffrey]

First me started stripping. This is gonna get dirty.

[Host Jeff]

And then they show their complete lack of musical knowledge by trying to guess the tune. And because Thanksgiving is right around the corner, all of today's songs have foods in the title.

[Brooke]

Oh, my God.

[Host Jeff]

They're not all necessarily Thanksgiving foods. But they are foods. I can assure you. Assure you.

[Jeffrey]

Okay, okay.

[Host Jeff]

And Jose obviously has the advantage as the resident foodie of the show, but, Brooke, this could be right up your alley.

[Brooke]

I'm a resident eater. I don't know that I consider myself.

[Host Jeff]

A foodie, but we're gonna start with a girl who uses a cooked turkey as her reference for the ideal spray tan. Alexis, name this food themed song. Need the title. The correct title.

[Alexis]

Why am I blinking at it?

[Lilia]

No.

[Brooke]

What is it called? I know. I can't think.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, my God.

[Host Jeff]

Talk to me, baby. I need a guess. Can't go through all the lyrics here. 3.

[Brooke]

Oh, I know it.

[Host Jeff]

2. 1. All right, we're going to Jose if he can steal.

[Lilia]

Oh.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, man.

[Brooke]

Come on, give it to me.

[Host Jeff]

Need a guess?

[Jeffrey]

I don't have one.

[Lilia]

Brooke.

[Host Jeff]

Cake by the Ocean. Cake by the Ocean by DM mc I knew it.

[Brooke]

I was good.

[Jeffrey]

I couldn't think of the lyrics. I'm diabetic, so I'm not allowed to know that song.

[Host Jeff]

We're on to you. Your reputation as a mother is on the line if you fail to correctly identify this food themed song. It's a classic.

[Brooke]

High in the sky.

[Lilia]

Oh. Oh.

[Host Jeff]

She got one of the words in the title.

[Brooke]

Pie in the sky.

[Host Jeff]

What is it, Alexis? Steal it.

[Alexis]

It's the beginning of the song. You can't play just the beginning.

[Host Jeff]

All right, we're subtracting a point from Brooke for arguing about Jose. Can you steal it?

[Jeffrey]

I'm gonna go with taters.

[Harper]

Wrong.

[Jeffrey]

Mashed potatoes.

[Host Jeff]

The correct answer was American pie by Don McLean.

[Jeffrey]

You claim to like to be Benny.

[Brooke]

Inspired by Miss American. You can't subtract tracked a point because you made a poor musical choice.

[Host Jeff]

Down to negative two. Brook is trying to set an all new record low on the show for some reason.

[Jeffrey]

You and I may win just because she got go.

[Host Jeff]

All right, we're on to Jose. All those nights watching food videos on the toilet will have paid off if.

[Jeffrey]

You can guess like tacos or Chinese dumplings.

[Host Jeff]

Let's see if you can get this song changing up the vibe a little bit with this.

[Brooke]

I know. Oh, hey, this isn't family Thanksgiving, is it?

[Host Jeff]

I think I know it.

[Jeffrey]

Oh. Oh, Peaches.

[Host Jeff]

I knew Jose was gonna get Peaches by Justin Bieber.

[Jeffrey]

That's one of Jose's favorites down in Georgia. I love this song.

[Host Jeff]

No. We're on to the second round here. The score is Alexis zero. Jose's in the lead with one. Brooke taking up the rear with negative two. How dang it.

[Brooke]

I was up one. Jeffrey. Oh, my God.

[Host Jeff]

Attitude does not fly on Riffing around back to Alexis. Alexis, please name this food theme song.

[Alexis]

Watermelon sugar.

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Host Jeff]

Harry Styles.

[Alexis]

Baby kiss me Harry Styles.

[Jeffrey]

I have it written down already. I knew it was coming.

[Brooke]

I can name that song in two notes.

[Host Jeff]

Oh, really? I thought it only has to be.

[Jeffrey]

The hook of the song.

[Host Jeff]

Brock, what are the rules? Chance to rethink, redeem yourself. I will double your points here. If you can correctly guess this food themed song.

[Alexis]

It's about to complain again.

[Host Jeff]

Very popular song all over the world.

[Brooke]

I love food, food, food that's not it.

[Host Jeff]

Surprisingly.

[Brooke]

I'm gonna go with turkey legs.

[Host Jeff]

No, Alexis. Steal it from her.

[Alexis]

I don't know the meat, the word.

[Brooke]

Bites of dust.

[Lilia]

No, it's not.

[Brooke]

That sounds like.

[Jeffrey]

Got it.

[Lilia]

Another one.

[Alexis]

Really?

[Jeffrey]

Got it.

[Alexis]

A fruit.

[Jeffrey]

Wrong.

[Host Jeff]

Jose, take it.

[Jeffrey]

What is butter?

[Host Jeff]

Butter by bts, of course. Jose jumps into soul control. Control the lead with two.

[Digital Jake]

Correct.

[Host Jeff]

And again, I'm going to give you double points, cuz this one's tough. If you can correctly guess this song. Oh, my God.

[Jeffrey]

Dance too much. Booty in the pants. Dance too much.

[Alexis]

Is that the real song?

[Jeffrey]

What's it called? What's it called? Peanut Butter Jelly.

[Host Jeff]

Peanut Butter Jelly.

[Jeffrey]

Peanut Butter Jelly. The baseball bat.

[Host Jeff]

It's peanut butter jelly time, by the way. Boy. Wow, Jose.

[Brooke]

I haven't heard that in so long.

[Alexis]

Impressive.

[Host Jeff]

You're four correct. Alexis says one. Brook. Still negative two there. Let's go. Third and final round. And this one, we're going to mix it up a little bit. Not looking for the song with food, but the artist who's associated with food. I need the artist that's associated.

[Alexis]

Their name has food in it.

[Host Jeff]

I'll say it for the third time. Artist is associated with food.

[Jeffrey]

Wait, wait.

[Lilia]

Got it.

[Host Jeff]

Here we go. Alexis, name the artist that sings this famous song.

[Brooke]

Oh, oh.

[Alexis]

Black Eyed Peas.

[Host Jeff]

Black Eyed Peas.

[Jeffrey]

Wow, that was fun.

[Alexis]

Say my guesses are easy one more time.

[Brooke]

I just sighed. That's all I did. I just sighed.

[Host Jeff]

Brooke, insert disparaging comment here. Name this song. No, don't name the song. Name the artist who sings this song.

[Brooke]

The Cranberries.

[Jeffrey]

She already preguessed it.

[Host Jeff]

It was too easy for her. She gets one correct. Bringing her spirit.

[Brooke]

Gave me triple points on that one.

[Host Jeff]

And back down to negative two.

[Jeffrey]

You had it in your grass, then.

[Host Jeff]

You questioned it and you lost it.

[Jeffrey]

All right, technically, if you double negative two, it's like minus four. Yeah.

[Host Jeff]

I mean, minus two is actually generous. Jose, to take it home. Name the artist who sings this song.

[Brooke]

Oh, Young Gravy.

[Jeffrey]

Jose does it.

[Host Jeff]

10 points for Jose. And the winner of Ripping Around Thanksgiving edition is. Jose Belano.

[Lilia]

Yeah. All right.

[Jeffrey]

I want to ride around in the gravy boat. We're all doing it.

[Host Jeff]

I'm Jeff.

[Jeffrey]

Row, run.

[Host Jeff]

Row your throat. Dubois. Your phone tap is coming up right after this.

[Brooke]

Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.

[Host Jeff]

Today. We've got Lilia on the phone, who is playing you from the Big island this morning.

[Brooke]

That must be nice.

[Jeffrey]

I believe it's Lili.

[Lilia]

Yeah. Then yeah.

[Host Jeff]

Well, yeah. And we're not great with Names over here. Because I told Alexis that out in the hallway and she said, oh, the Big island of Virginia.

[Brooke]

Names or geography? Jeff. Or we don't even know the word.

[Host Jeff]

We're not good with anything, okay?

[Jeffrey]

She's like, oh, Staten Island.

[Brooke]

So, dude, what are you doing on the Big island right now?

[Harper]

I work over here.

[Host Jeff]

You? Oh, God.

[Brooke]

Wait, what are you gonna eat today? That's what I want to know.

[Host Jeff]

There's so much to choose from.

[Harper]

You know, the poke.

[Brooke]

Oh, come on. I'm getting too excited. I've gotta leave.

[Host Jeff]

It's a good strategy. You're, like, throwing Brooke off with this food talk, and she's already beat you once. Brooke? She's 10 against you all time.

[Brooke]

Then I gotta go. I don't know.

[Host Jeff]

She doesn't have anything. Lilia, you know how the game works. You got 30 seconds to answer as many questions as possible. If you don't know when, you could say pass. But you do have to beat Brooke outright to win. Are you ready? Yes, I am. Good luck. Your time starts now. Travis Barker celebrates a birthday today. He's the drummer of what famous band? Oh, my God.

[Harper]

Pass.

[Host Jeff]

Manometer is used to measure what? Distance, pressure or length.

[Harper]

Length.

[Host Jeff]

In basketball, what is the penalty called when someone uses both hands to bounce the ball?

[Jordy]

Double dribble.

[Host Jeff]

Name the famous French sculpture of a naked man sitting down with his hand on his chin. The Federal Railroad Administration says, how many times does a train need to blow its whistle before it can move forward?

[Harper]

4.

[Host Jeff]

That's a good question. 4 train whistles. I didn't even know this was a thing. It's awesome. So Brooke is coming back in the studio and I see in my phone screener here, Lilia, that for Thanksgiving, you're going down to Mexico to visit family. Oh, my God.

[Harper]

Yes.

[Jordy]

I'm going to Guadalajara.

[Host Jeff]

Oh, my God. Just tropical place. The tropical place.

[Brooke]

Amazing food, right?

[Host Jeff]

Eat on Thanksgiving in Mexico.

[Brooke]

I don't know that they're celebrating chicken.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, Brook, they celebrate our thanks, okay?

[Host Jeff]

The whole world does exactly what we do.

[Jeffrey]

America, bro.

[Host Jeff]

[Brooke]

Everyone surrounds around us. I forgot.

[Host Jeff]

Tourist.

[Jeffrey]

Have any Thanksgiving specials around here?

[Brooke]

I love how humble and thankful we are.

[Lilia]

I know.

[Jeffrey]

Have fun. Great.

[Host Jeff]

I hate us. Okay, Buck, you ready? Your time starts now. Travis Barker celebrates a birthday today. He's the drummer of what famous band?

[Lilia]

22.

[Host Jeff]

A manometer is used to measure what? Distance, pressure or length Pressure. In basketball, what is the penalty called when someone uses both hands to bounce the ball?

[Brooke]

Double hands.

[Host Jeff]

Name the famous French sculpture of a naked man sitting down with his hand on his chin.

[Brooke]

The Thinker.

[Host Jeff]

The Federal Railroad Administration says, how many times does a train need to blow its whistle before it can move forward?

[Brooke]

Three times.

[Host Jeff]

Ooh, she went with the triple blow.

[Brooke]

Oh, it could be four. Here comes the train.

[Host Jeff]

Find out in a second. First, let's go to the scoreboard with Jose.

[Jeffrey]

Take your pants off. I don't even know your name. Leia. You got one correct today.

[Harper]

Oh, man, it was a tough one.

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Harper]

Yeah, it was.

[Jeffrey]

Brooke, you got three.

[Harper]

Nice.

[Brooke]

Brook couldn't get me this time.

[Host Jeff]

All tied up. One and one all time. Let's go over the answers real quick, though. Travis Barker Salad celebrates a birthday. He is the Drummer of Blink 182.

[Brooke]

I miss you.

[Host Jeff]

A manometer or a manometer?

[Brooke]

Manometer probably is right.

[Host Jeff]

I don't know. Manometer is used to measure pressure in a confined space, like in a boiler.

[Jeffrey]

And if it was a manometer, it would measure length for sure.

[Host Jeff]

And basketball. The penalty when somebody uses both hands to bounce the ball is called the double dribble. You were so close. The famous French sculpture of a naked man sitting down with his hand on his chin is called the Jeffrey, AKA the Thinker.

[Brooke]

She just laughing. She just thinks you guys are on fire.

[Host Jeff]

Sweet lady.

[Jeffrey]

She likes us.

[Host Jeff]

And the Federal Railroad Administration says before a train can move forward, it's got to blow its whistle two times.

[Brooke]

Two times. My grandmother always told me it was them going, here comes the train. I think it's real. I'm telling you, my grandma wind flies. We spent a lot of time on trains with her.

[Host Jeff]

Yeah, we know. It's a very depressing life. Okay, so, Lilia, unfortunately, we couldn't get the victory there. But just for being on with us, you do get some free Brooke and Jeffrey swag.

[Harper]

Thank you, guys. Love you guys.

[Host Jeff]

We'll be back to win Brooks Buck. Same time tomorrow?
