Brooke
Hey, it's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. And man, Jeff's song of the week today goes hard. All right, get ready for that. Plus a brand new second date. Laser stories, lots of fun. Oh, and all the April fool's pranks. We're gonna go over them all that companies did like the funniest ones. So yeah, definitely be here for the full hour. It's about to start. But before we do, we gotta feature you.
Alexis
Yes, and we're featuring Tak Tracer, who said a great segment you guys could do would be to have the whole crew do an escape room together.
Brooke
O.
Alexis
Just throwing that out there.
Jose
I did do one with most of the crew or part of the crew
Brooke
when we were in Vegas.
Jose
Yeah.
Jeffrey
Yeah.
Brooke
We used to do really fun. We used to be able to take a whole trip where we would take a plane full of listeners to Vegas with us.
Jeffrey
Yeah.
Brooke
Oh, yeah.
Alexis
That's crazy.
Brooke
God, it was the days when we still had marketing money.
Alexis
Before my time.
Brooke
Yes. It was before Alexis's time.
Unknown Female 2
Yes.
Brooke
So, hey, you know what? We're gonna run that up to the bosses one more time. Okay.
Jose
It's nice to hear a no.
Alexis
Yeah.
Brooke
All right, let's get to your full hour starting right now.
Jeffrey
Here's some good news to start your Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. According to a new uplifting study, most Americans are just three months away from total financial collapse.
Brooke
And I thought it was two.
Jeffrey
It's three. That's the financial cushion that most Americans say they have left before bills start going unpaid.
Jose
You guys have time to count your money in between our four jobs.
Jeffrey
We all have. That's so cool.
Brooke
What could go wrong?
Jeffrey
And it's not just people facing potential job loss. It could be a medical emergency absorbing one too many price hikes.
Unknown Female
Who knows?
Jeffrey
But roughly six out of 10 adults say they're gonna be out of options in 90 days.
Unknown Female
Yay.
Jeffrey
But good news, eight out of 10 say they'd still doordash themselves a large pizza with all the fix ins.
Jason
Yeah.
Jeffrey
And pay all the extra fees for it. Cause we're not willing to get it ourselves. We have standards. We still think we're better than you.
Alexis
Yeah.
Jeffrey
I mean, yeah, your wife might say, but honey, Domino's is only a block. Let's go pick it up.
Brooke
Okay. I'm worried Jeff is actually broken. Like I was going along with a bit for a minute. But now you're starting.
Jeffrey
No, cuz if you put in a delivery order of $50 or more, then they'll toss in an 18 pack of Parmesan bread bites on the house. That's saving money and eating your feelings.
Brooke
Was this sponsored or not at all?
Jeffrey
We don't have any sponsors, remember?
Jose
Is Jeff asking us for money?
Jeffrey
That's right.
Brooke
No companies have any marketing money left?
Unknown Female
No.
Brooke
Right.
Unknown Female 2
Ok.
Jeffrey
It's great. Couldn't be in a better head space to move into the shock collar. Question of the day.
Jose
Do we have enough money to move on to the shock collar?
Brooke
Do we have enough Prozac for Jeff?
Jeffrey
Good luck being more uplifting than that. Jake, your move.
Will
What a troublesome energy.
Brooke
This is a wild start to the show.
Will
Well, yesterday at this time, we learned some very important stats about Easter. For example, Americans spend a whopping $22 billion on this holiday every year.
Jeffrey
Billion.
Will
Which comes out to $177.
Brooke
Yeah, take that, emergencies.
Unknown Female
Oh, my God.
Will
Is that why people were mad about the price of eggs?
Jeffrey
Oh, I guess.
Will
Well, the only thing more irresponsible than American Easter spending are the terrible answers you all gave to your questions yesterday.
Jose
Oh, yeah, sorry about that.
Will
That's why we're running it back again with more egg based math for another no Bunny business edition of plenty of 20. Just like the day before, you say number one through 20, I'll give you an Easter stat. Foods, traditions or candy hawking rabbits? You just have to tell me, is the real number higher or lower? Okay, we'll start with the woman whose ideal egg hunt comes with mini bottles of liquor inside. That's Alexis.
Alexis
And money.
Brooke
Don't forget seven.
Will
No way. This is perfect. Alexis, what percentage of Americans think the Easter bunny should give out money like our friend the tooth fairy does?
Unknown Female
He just said it.
Will
Is it over or under 30%?
Alexis
Oh, 100 million. Over.
Brooke
Over.
Will
Locking it in quick.
Brooke
Yeah, she's right.
Will
46% of people would prefer money in their eggs.
Jose
Yeah, totally.
Will
We could all use it. Brooke, seven is off the board.
Brooke
Ooh, let's go. 12.
Will
Three in four parents plan on having the talk with their children.
Brooke
What?
Jose
Oh, the birds and the bees.
Will
About eating candy in moderation.
Unknown Female
Oh, my bad.
Will
But is it over or under? 70% of parents who admit to occasionally stealing from their kids. Candy stash.
Jose
Perfect.
Brooke
Of parents steal from the candy Stats anyone today?
Jose
James.
Brooke
Dude.
Alexis
Over.
Will
Over. You're sure?
Brooke
Well, I mean, if they aren't admitting to it, they're lying.
Alexis
So I'm still going over.
Will
Brooke thinks more than 70%. And she's right. The real number is 80% of parents admit to it. So you know the real number is higher.
Brooke
20. Lie.
Will
All right, we're two for two. Jose, we're back to you. Seven and 12 are off the board.
Jose
Let's go 14.
Will
In another poll, Jose, people were asked how they planned to celebrate Easter, and the top answer was having a special meal with family or friends. 21% said that. What percentage said going to church over or under 7%?
Jose
Seven. Ooh. You know what? As a guy who was raised as a Catholic in the church, and we went every Easter and every Christmas, I'm gonna say more.
Jeffrey
Get the church. Does it count with virtual church attendance?
Will
I was gonna say, dude.
Jose
Actually, my parents do attend or just church a lot.
Brooke
Yeah, just watching a TV evangelist. Does that work, too?
Unknown Female
Pops on.
Jeffrey
They have, like, 200 million viewers, right?
Jose
Oh, yeah. Now way over seven. I'm locking it in.
Will
Doordash, some communion crackers, some wine. Jose said over 7%, and he's right. Double that. 14 say they were going to church on Easter.
Jose
I picked number 14.
Will
Boy. All right, they've gone three for three. And I'm in a precarious position, Jeffrey, because that's right.
Brooke
Get them.
Will
Get this right. I am in big trouble.
Jeffrey
Come on, Jeff. As the Jewish man, I'm in the pecurious position. Easter questions, but I'm going to go with number two.
Will
Okay, I'm in good shape, then. All right, in a poll on holidays, what percentage of Americans say Easter is their favorite holiday of the year?
Jose
Favorite?
Jeffrey
Wow.
Will
Is it over or under 15%.
Jose
It's got to be the chocolate, right?
Brooke
I thought it was a magic show.
Jeffrey
There's a magic show?
Jose
I mean, no, not a church.
Brooke
The story is kind of a magic show.
Jeffrey
Oh, yeah. It's like a disappearing at.
Jason
Yeah.
Jeffrey
Oh, my God. He should go on tour Favorites. I mean, I would assume that most people would prefer, like, Christmas and Halloween and Arbor Day.
Jose
Yeah. Arbor Day, Flag Day, Flag Day.
Jeffrey
Yeah. As beloved as Easter is, I can't see it being above 15%. I'm gonna go lower.
Will
Oh, Jeffrey thinks it's Uber.
Jose
I'm the only one to say lower.
Brooke
That's a strong answer, Jess. You like it, I support it. I'm scared.
Will
Brooke says it's Strong. It is 13%. Thanks to the timing, though, we have to go to a tiebreaker. And, Alexis, I'm gonna offer you a diner special opportunity again. This time.
Alexis
What does that even mean?
Will
If you get this right, Alexis, not only will I take the shock, but I will make two eggs, any style, for each one of you here in the room.
Jose
Scrambled over medium, please.
Will
Or if you get it wrong, Alexis, I am Completely safe from getting shocked.
Alexis
Oh, you don't want me to make you eggs?
Will
Alexis, please don't. You can keep the eggs. Do you accept?
Brooke
Yes.
Will
All right, here's your question. So we know that 13% of Americans say their favorite thing about Easter is going to church. But what about attending an Easter egg hunt? Is it over or under? The 13% of churchgoers as their top thing?
Alexis
Egg hunts are everywhere.
Brooke
They're so fun and they're in every city park.
Jeffrey
But are they fun for the adults in attendance or are they only fun for the kids?
Alexis
You watch all the kids just charge at each other and fight for the eggs.
Jose
I think it's great for every fun
Brooke
to relive your childhood through your children.
Jose
You know, now that you're bigger and stronger.
Jeffrey
I do like hearing ear piercing children screams for like 20 minutes straight. That's a good point.
Alexis
Now that we're all on board, I'm going over.
Will
Alexis says that over 13% of people say the best thing about Easter is attending an Easter egg hunt.
Brooke
Let's go, eggs.
Will
And she is wrong. It's 12% just underneath. I'm safe. And I have won today's edition of plenty of 20.
Brooke
If I had rotten eggs, I'd throw them.
Jeffrey
Since Alexis blew it on her last question, she's gonna be getting shot.
Brooke
Wow, Alexis.
Jeffrey
Candy shop by 50 cents.
Brooke
I wanted eggs this morning.
Alexis
I'll take you to the candy shop I'll let you like the lollipop go hey girl, don't you everybody do it til you hit the spot it's like
Will
a Broadway chorus version of Candy Shit.
Brooke
I could tell that that song came out when she was in elementary school.
Jeffrey
Now that's my favorite part of Easter. That was your question of the day.
Show Announcer
Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning
Jeffrey
We've heard about strange things selling at auctions Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning so make some fun. In fact, recently we covered the unbelievable ebay sale of Cheetozard. Oh, yeah, Remember that Cheeto shaped like a Pokemon character? It sold for $87,000.
Brooke
God, I've been searching every Cheeto bag since.
Jeffrey
Well, mark this as another weird one that just hit the auction block. This one in the UK. Cause a 1 1/2 inch dreadlock of Bob Marley's hair Whoa.
Jose
I want a bid.
Jeffrey
It's up online. According to the listing, it's the first genuine example of Marley's hair to be sold in the last 20 years.
Jose
Oh, my God.
Alexis
How'd they get it?
Jeffrey
It was the state.
Jose
Better be selling it.
Jeffrey
It was a fan who got it back in 1978 when Bob was performing on a BBC program and all she did was ask him for it. Which isn't a weird question to go up and be like, hey, can I have some of your hair that was
Brooke
clipping it privately before DNA testing was, you know, available. He was like, yeah, what else could you do with it?
Jeffrey
So apparently Bob just kept nodding and chuckling, seemed just amused by the question till the fan just went for it.
Brooke
Oh, what?
Jeffrey
Grabbed, twisted and pulled off a piece of his hair.
Jose
Oh, that's rude.
Jeffrey
She put it in her memory booklet along with Marley's autograph, which presumably she grabbed his hand and scratched it across her book. And it's been there ever since.
Brooke
Oh.
Jeffrey
So the auction closes in three days. Already the dreadlock is up to three grand.
Brooke
That's not that much.
Jeffrey
Yeah, for a piece of hair, that's a lot. For a lock of hair, I would think that much.
Jose
Because I put three grand down. I thought it was a big bid. Okay, good. I don't feel as bad.
Brooke
I mean, when the cheeto goes for 87,000, you know, comparison.
Alexis
People sell a bag of air for more than that.
Jeffrey
Yeah, but it just makes me think. I think we need to start immortalizing stuff from our show to make a profit off.
Brooke
Jose's got a pile of fingernails over computer.
Jeffrey
Make sure.
Jose
Okay, maybe there is one.
Jeffrey
Lock a few of those up in a plastic bag. You can put those online. Also, Brooke, what do you think about posting your windshield wiper glasses up for auction? Those fishbowl frames, I need them. Yeah, worst case scenario, a kid buys it for three bucks and uses it to burn ants.
Brooke
I think you could light more than just ants on fire.
Jeffrey
Let's get those things up for sale. We got Laser Stories right after this.
Jose
Hello, it's Laser Stories.
Jeffrey
It's the radio segment that's offering a lunch special where they'll surgically enhance your BLT sandwich into a bblt. Hey, Brazilian bacon lettuce. Tomato sandwiched between two meaty hands.
Brooke
Hey, that's right.
Jeffrey
It's all thanks to Laser Stories, the segment where we read weird news stories around the globe just like everyone else does. Except. Except we've got a laser. Those other PB and jail baits just don't. This first laser story is out of Florida. A man named Farren Fullerton was arrested a couple weeks ago. He was trespassing at a hotel. Cause he wouldn't leave after his checkout time.
Jose
Ain't nobody got time for that. Oh, wow.
Alexis
Checkout times are too early.
Brooke
I agree. And sometimes you're waiting for the plane and you. You know.
Jeffrey
Yeah. Okay. Take the side of the criminal right away. That's fine for now. When the cops showed up, they found Faren wearing nothing other than a prison inmate uniform.
Brooke
Why was he there for? Why was he in that?
Jeffrey
Well, upon closer examination, the uniform belonged to the local county jail.
Brooke
Oh.
Jeffrey
Authorities looked into Farron's background and confirmed he was not an escapee from that facility.
Brooke
Okay, that's good.
Jeffrey
But he had been there. So apparently he somehow snuck away with it after a previous stay.
Brooke
I see. It's like when you go to the bowling alley and you're like, oh, my God, these are actually kind of cute shoes.
Jeffrey
Nobody thinks that.
Alexis
No.
Jose
Maybe he.
Brooke
He likes the orange outfit.
Jeffrey
Totally. Brooke. Regardless, he was taken to jail and was not asked to change.
Brooke
Oh, that's good.
Jeffrey
As for what the police department thought, the sheriff said, I've heard of dress for success, but never dress for arrest.
Brooke
Oh, dress for the job you want, Jeff.
Jeffrey
Yeah, he was prepared. Let's go to your next laser story. Out of Alabama, a woman named Carrie posted a TikTok about being on the hunt for a man named Mike. Mike, who her friend had fun with while out dancing.
Brooke
Oh, yeah.
Jose
When you get those good vibes and then you're like, I should have got the number.
Brooke
I love that. And she's wing woman and her friend. That's awesome.
Alexis
He's so good at finding people. Now people post it.
Jeffrey
The friend didn't get Mike's info, but she felt like he could have been her soulmate.
Brooke
Whoa.
Jason
Dang.
Jose
Those are big feelings.
Brooke
Let's not put that in the TikTok video. I don't know if Mike's gonna get a hold of you.
Jeffrey
Well, luckily, the tiktoker shared a short video of Mike Mike, and added that the only other thing they knew about him was his friends kept chirping at him, chanting, mike, Mike, Mike, Mike.
Brooke
Okay.
Jose
While he was dancing.
Jeffrey
So. Well, it's unclear if he saw the video. Laura did. Laura is Mike's wife.
Jose
How do we know it's the right in the comments?
Brooke
I mean, they were just dancing, right?
Jeffrey
In the comments. She said, hi, I'm Michael's wife. He's busy explaining this to our two children right now. Someone asked if she was sure this was the right guy, and she said, oh, yep, that's him. The guy I said forever to over 10 years ago. But he didn't cheat.
Brooke
He just danced.
Jeffrey
I think it was a little bit more than just an innocent dance, bro. Another person also said, I'm Mike's grandmother, and I'm also mad at him. That's funny. But it was probably just a joke. Yeah, but either way, it sounds like Mike is in a heap of trouble, so think twice before you try to track down a mystery connection you met at a bar.
Brooke
Dude whose friends are chanting on a married guy when he's dancing.
Jose
Yeah, that's actually not cool.
Jeffrey
He needs to have some fun after 10 years of marriage. Brooke, how about you give him a break?
Jose
They're like, mike's wife doesn't let him dance.
Brooke
Mike's wife is probably dying to go dancing.
Jeffrey
Yeah, we do not want to expose people and get Mike in trouble again, so.
Brooke
Oh, that's the problem.
Jeffrey
Yeah.
Jose
Is that the angle?
Jeffrey
Poor Mike. Let's go to your next laser story. Out of Great Ideas Incorporated, I never visit here. A startup called Reflect Orbital is saying that when it's dark outside, they want to be the ones to deliver something called On Demand Sunlight.
Unknown Female 2
Bro.
Jose
I saw this, and this is crazy, guys.
Brooke
When it's dark.
Jose
Tell them, Jeff.
Jeffrey
It does sound like science fiction, but it's real. Basically, they want to send up thousands of satellites with giant mirrors on them, and those mirrors would reflect sunlight down to earth at night. And all you'd have to do is open up an app, drop a pin, and then sunlight will arrive at that location in 30 seconds. Double rainbow. Oh, my God.
Jose
Middle of the night. I'd be like, oh, I can't find my keys.
Jeffrey
Boom.
Riley
Hold on.
Jose
Let me just ping my location.
Jeffrey
Boop.
Jose
Sunlight.
Brooke
I am so pissed if I'm trying to sleep and somebody's lighting up their neighborhood.
Jeffrey
The main idea is to help solar farms keep producing energy after sunset.
Brooke
Okay.
Jeffrey
But there's plenty of critics. Scientists are warning the extra light could confuse animals and disrupt our sleep.
Jose
Oh, that cow's not very happy.
Brooke
It only works if it's a not cloudy night, too.
Jeffrey
That's a good point.
Unknown Female
Oh, I didn't think of that either, Brooke.
Jeffrey
And some researchers say the math ain't mathing. Yeah, they're saying it would take literally thousands and thousands of satellites just to match a. A fraction of daylight. And it's probably extremely expensive where you'd have to pay 10k for 30 seconds of sunlight.
Brooke
Wow.
Jose
Do you press your date and be like, yo, you want me to turn the sun on real quick?
Jeffrey
I can totally do it. You might as well just buy one of those sunrise clocks at that point. Watch this.
Jose
Imagine if they turn it on. Too many reflections. It's too strong. Like when you put an ant under a micro. You could hurt. Yeah.
Jeffrey
You get sunburn.
Jose
It could actually zap you.
Jeffrey
Yeah. Let's go to your final laser story. Out of Family 101. There's a new parenting hack on social media that promises you can stop toddler tantrums. And it's pretty simple.
Brooke
Okay?
Jeffrey
All you have to do is shout Jessica.
Jose
That's what she said.
Brooke
But what if your kid isn't named Jessica?
Jeffrey
That's the point. They don't need to be named Jessica, and they don't need to know anybody else named Jessica. But apparently this particular name works wonders, and several parents swear by it. A family physician weighed in, and she said it's just the element of surprise, of shouting a name, really any name, unexpectedly. But tick tockers disagree. They've tried yelling Beth or Tiffany, and it didn't work. It doesn't work the same.
Brooke
Only Jessica.
Jeffrey
Another expert says the Jessica hack works because the brain reacts differently to Jennings.
Brooke
Oh.
Jeffrey
Where you hear and you're like, wait, wait. What J.
Jason
Maybe.
Jeffrey
What's going on?
Brooke
Would Jose work?
Jose
No.
Jeffrey
He needs to have the J sound. Yeah. Joe's would work, and so they'll stop to figure out what's happening. And if this is true, it means that the Jessica hack, it won't work forever because children will start to recognize the pattern and their brains adapt and the interruption loses its effect. So you might have to pivot to a different one. Like Josephine.
Jose
Yeah. Or Santa Claus.
Jeffrey
Gotta be Jack. Oh, that's right.
Jose
Never mind.
Jeffrey
Anything will work on Jose. I feel like, though.
Jose
Seriously.
Jeffrey
I do know the perfect place to try it out, though. This guy's house. Last time I was there, I swear I heard a Skecher scream. Oh, God. And it stopped me right in my tracks. Was not expecting that.
Brooke
Talking shoes. Yes.
Jeffrey
That sound means Laser Stories has come to an end for the day. We'll do it again same time on Monday.
Show Announcer
Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.
Jeffrey
The dust has settled and the ink is dry. We're less than 48 hours removed from April 1, where companies across this great nation of ours push the limits of artificial intelligence to create the most ridiculous phony products you never knew you wanted. Oh, hey, we're talking a new ramen flavor that you've never dreamed Dreamed of, and a pet accessory I wish was true. We're gonna give you the rundown of the best ones from April Fools coming up right after this. April Fools. I mean, it happened in the middle of the week this year and went by so quick, we haven't really had a chance to even cover it. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.
Brooke
Did you pull any pranks?
Jeffrey
Not personally, but we didn't have time. But thanks to all the advancements with AI and social media, it's easier than ever for companies to just type in a prompt to the computer and then post a funny AI photo and say, ha, we messed with ya.
Brooke
Yeah, it was the laziest April Fools I've ever seen. I mean, honestly.
Jeffrey
So now in 2026, there's more and more brands jumping onto the April shenanig wagon. So we're just gonna tell you a few of the ones that move the needle. The best April Fool's company pranks from this year.
Brooke
Oh, I like this, Jeff. I didn't see very many good ones.
Jeffrey
Y. In case you missed it, first up, one of the bigger up and coming chain restaurants right now is Raisin Cane's, the fried chicken place.
Brooke
The lines are forever as soon as one opens.
Jeffrey
And they're mostly famous for their tasty sauce that they have.
Will
Yes.
Jose
Oh, my gosh.
Jeffrey
So Cane's leaned into that by announcing a new chicken sauce flavored cola. If you haven't seen the photo, it looks like a really thick, creamy cola.
Brooke
Oh, it's coming out of the fountain.
Jeffrey
Oh.
Brooke
So, I mean, some people would honestly probably be excited about this.
Jeffrey
Yeah, you need your meal to be thicker. So. Got a lot of engagement. Up next. You probably heard of the product called dude wipes.
Brooke
Yeah, it's like baby wipes, but they have to make them masculine so men will use them.
Jeffrey
Flushable toilet wipes designed for men.
Brooke
Hey, by the way, you shouldn't flush those. Even though they say flushable. Just an FYI. Yeah, it causes huge issues in the sewer system.
Jose
I never knew.
Brooke
Throw them away.
Jeffrey
I'm trustable.
Brooke
The box way.
Jose
You don't just throw that in the garbage.
Brooke
That's where you want to put it.
Jeffrey
Well, on April 1st, they unveiled a new skincare product called Butt Masks.
Will
Yeah, good.
Jeffrey
They called it, quote, the first targeted hydrogel patch designed for your third eye. Just pop it directly into the target zone for 15 minutes while you doom scroll on the phone.
Brooke
I like that it says let it rip.
Jeffrey
Rip.
Will
Yeah.
Jeffrey
If you're just joining us, we're talking about the most viral April Fool's pranks that were done by major brands this year. So these are not real if you're just tuning in. Although probably a few people did fall for them. We're gonna go right to this next one. Uggs posted their social media a brand New Ugg Brella, which is a tiny, colorful umbrella that clips onto the top of your sheepskin boots to protect them from the rain.
Jose
It's like a gibbon for your Uggs.
Brooke
Yeah, it's pretty cute. And it makes sense because those Uggs, they get wet.
Jeffrey
No, Alexis, I could definitely see you wearing these.
Alexis
For sure. You think I want to root my Uggs in the rain?
Will
No, these are cool enough. They should have to do them.
Jeffrey
Yeah, make them mandatory. Next up, a new product from a company called Terry's Chocolate. They shared a photo of a phone case with a tiny pouch designed to carry some heat controlled chocolate for any emergency.
Brooke
Yay.
Jeffrey
So if you're riding the bus and you're scrolling on TikTok and you feel like your blood sugar's getting low, you're covered, there's a little chocolate on the end of your phone.
Brooke
It looks very connected to the phone. Like, you'd have to like, literally chew on the back of your phone.
Jeffrey
Maybe you have to lick it right off. I don't know exactly how it works. Also, a collab that promises, quote, a peanut buttery glaze with a crispity, crunchity goodness.
Will
I'm in.
Brooke
Doesn't sound bad, Jeff.
Jeffrey
Talk about top ramen. Butterfinger edition.
Will
Okay.
Jeffrey
Wow.
Brooke
I mean, look at that photo.
Jose
I love them both, but not together.
Brooke
Not far from pink hat tie though, right?
Jeffrey
I mean, this one I can almost believe, cuz they've come out with all sorts of new flavors. Like the chicken wing ramen. Remember that?
Brooke
Dude, we have macaroni and cheese ice cream and people loved it. I mean, we're just flipping the script on the noodle game.
Jeffrey
They actually made maple syrup and pancake ramen. Oh, remember that?
Jose
No, I do remember the breakfast ramen.
Will
Yeah.
Jeffrey
So I could see them going the opposite, making a dessert Butterfinger ramen and people loving it.
Jose
I think the only shocking thing they come out with now is a real ramen Ramen. Chicken shoyu ramen.
Jeffrey
That's no fun. There's a couple other phony food collabs I should mention that happen on April Fools. There was Heinz Matcha mayo, a green colored mayonnaise.
Jose
You know what I say?
Brooke
Ew.
Jose
But maybe that would make mayo better. To me, I like matcha.
Jeffrey
Why are we just saying that all these are good ideas?
Brooke
Did you not expect that?
Jeffrey
Not really. There's a packaged ice cream soup from Baskin Robbins.
Will
Okay, maybe it's just getting better as we go.
Jason
Yeah.
Brooke
These are the throwaways without a warm milkshake.
Jeffrey
And my favorite from Red Lobster Cheddar Bay Biscuit Pop Tarts. Yes, I do have a picture of it. Does that look good to you with the cheese in the middle? This looks unbelievably good.
Brooke
Why do we not have savory Pop Tarts?
Jeffrey
Oh, yes.
Will
The room has become feral.
Jose
I know. It looks like she's so good. Is the cheddar like the ham?
Brooke
The ham, cheese, cheddar. The whole thing is filled with cheese, and then the outside looks like a Red Lobster biscuit.
Will
Brooke, let go of my wrist.
Jeffrey
I know what. Calm down.
Brooke
Talk to a Pop Tart to make this happen.
Jeffrey
I will say a lot of the people in the comments said they would sell out instantly if they really made them, people would 100% go for it.
Brooke
We could do an egg and biscuit Pop Tart.
Will
All right.
Jeffrey
Okay. We'll move on from there.
Brooke
Oh, my God.
Jeffrey
Do you remember we talked a little while ago about Reese's Peanut Butter Cup Toothpaste?
Brooke
Dude, I'm still on the Maple and bacon Pop Tart. That could work.
Jeffrey
Yes, I remember. Reese's Peanut Butter Cup Toothpaste. That was a real thing? Yes. Well, what about Keebler's Hollow Tree Cookie toothpaste?
Will
Oh, no.
Brooke
I told you. A listener texted in and had ordered the Reese's Toothpaste and loved it.
Alexis
Yeah, so this isn't really good Prank Keeblers.
Jeffrey
Each one is flavored like your favorite Keebler cookie. That was their April Fool's Day.
Jose
I love the fudge drive.
Brooke
These companies are just coming up with disappointment to me.
Jeffrey
But it wasn't just food and drink brands that were getting in on the April Fool's action. A pet company called Spot and Tango did one where, like, you've seen doggy poo bags? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Brooke
We've.
Jeffrey
This company released doggy pee bags.
Unknown Female
Ew.
Jeffrey
Come on, you guys with the tagline, a cleaner future for sidewalks everywhere.
Unknown Female
Okay, hurry.
Brooke
You gotta catch it.
Jose
Oh, my gosh.
Brooke
Getting down in there.
Jeffrey
And finally, you've heard of Hall's cough drops. Well, for April 1st, they wanted to come out with a brand new nostalgic flavor that'd be good for the old and the young.
Brooke
Oh.
Jeffrey
It's a mixture of lavender and Lindt called Grandma's Purse.
Will
I'm going to throw up.
Jeffrey
It tastes just like it's been sitting at the bottom of your nana's handbag for the past seven years.
Jose
Because I love it.
Brooke
That's where all Hall's cough drops.
Jose
It also tastes a little like pennies because it's been in her coins.
Jeffrey
We're kind of 5050 on some of these April Fool's pranks. We do want some. We don't want others.
Jose
You tell us which ones you.
Brooke
Oh, man.
Jeffrey
Text in 78592. Those were the biggest April Fool's brand jokes that companies did this past year. Phone taps coming up right after this. It's almost time for your prank call. It's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. And today we reach out to a guy whose wife went to a charity auction the other night.
Brooke
That's awesome.
Jeffrey
Without him. It had something to do with her work, and she was already downtown. Anyway, so she went, came home, and didn't mention anything significant happen. Happening. Okay, so imagine the husband's surprise when he gets a call from one of the organizers thanking him for their extremely generous donation. It's your phone tap right now.
Show Announcer
Brooke and Jeffrey's phone taps on the 20s.
Kevin
Hello?
Jeffrey
Hi, is Kevin or Pamela in?
Kevin
This is Kevin. How can I help you?
Jeffrey
Hi, Kevin. This is Harvey. Darth. I just wanted to call and say thank you so much for your generous donation last night at the charity banquet.
Kevin
Yeah, I didn't go to the event. My. My wife did.
Jason
She said she was.
Kevin
Yeah, I guess it was something connected to her work downtown.
Jeffrey
Got it. Well, will you just please send on the message that Allies thanks her for her generous donation of $5,000? What?
Kevin
Five grand? Are you kidding me?
Jeffrey
I'm not kidding. We're very grateful.
Kevin
Oh, I'm sure you are. Who you with again? Allies?
Jeffrey
Yes, it stands for affluent lawyers leveraging influence for early sentences.
Kevin
Okay, we need to back up here. But what. What's this charity? What are you doing? Because I wasn't there, and I had no idea she was going to spend that amount of money.
Jeffrey
Okay, I understand. It's basically a fundamental that helps already well off attorneys pull some strings to get their less than desirable clients out of jail faster.
Kevin
What?
Will
Yes.
Jeffrey
And with your generous $5,000 donation, you've helped put at least three convicted felons back out onto the streets, giving them another chance.
Kevin
Hold on a second. That doesn't sound good, what you just said.
Jeffrey
Well, I mean, if you were one of the freed criminals who had his assault charges dropped, then it would sound good.
Kevin
That sounds even worse.
Jeffrey
How so? How's it worse?
Kevin
I mean, it's already confusing enough that the name of your charity is Allies. Well, and I'm sure my wife got confused by that.
Jeffrey
Okay, well, in our defense, it's better than the acronym that we had before, which was Cash Counselors assisting Scumbags home.
Kevin
What's good about putting criminals back out on the street?
Jeffrey
You said earlier that you weren't at the event, right?
Kevin
That is true.
Jeffrey
Last night, one of our highest billers, his name's Phil McDougal. You probably heard of him. But Phil talked about getting a guy nicknamed Fatal off of his third home invasion charge.
Kevin
Wait.
Jeffrey
It was really moving.
Kevin
To be honest. This is starting to sound like some kind of joke and I'm not into it, but.
Jeffrey
Oh, no, not at all. It was actually one of the biggest challenges of his life, and he couldn't get the charges dropped without your donation. I mean, I mean, not yours. It was someone else's. But your donation will help a criminal in the future.
Kevin
We're going to put stop payment on that check, so you better return it because your charity sounds like worse.
Jeffrey
Okay. I think you're not considering all the positive after effects that it has. Did you know your contribution is non tax deductible?
Kevin
We're not even getting a break on it.
Jason
No.
Jeffrey
So the IRS then.
Kevin
We're absolutely putting stop payment on this.
Jeffrey
Okay, well, at this point, we already have the cash in our account and there's not a lot we can do.
Kevin
Oh, I'll be getting that money. I will absolutely be getting that money.
Jeffrey
You won't, but you will be getting a thank you card from a future freed criminal.
Kevin
Wait, what?
Jeffrey
Because we do provide the home address of any donation over a thousand dollars.
Kevin
Are you out of your God mind?
Jeffrey
So you should be expecting a thank you card from someone like Fatal? Probably.
Kevin
No, you're not doing anything like that. And no one's coming to the house.
Jeffrey
Don't be ridiculous. Just because a criminal has your address and knows you have a lot of money to donate, that doesn't mean they're going to show up and rob you. That's prejudiced.
Kevin
No, no, no. I don't need I your general counsel. And I need to know where the hell that I'm I'm getting this check back from. And it better be in my hot hand manana.
Jeffrey
Got it. That's Spanish for next year. Anyway, I would just request that you tell your wife the charity and the prank call that we did were both a massive success.
Kevin
You said what?
Jeffrey
I said prank call was a big success because Pamela listens to a radio show. It's called Brooke and Jeffrey in the Morning.
Jason
And.
Jeffrey
And that's why you're getting.
Kevin
She does. She does.
Jeffrey
You're getting phone tapped right now by me. I'm Jeff.
Kevin
Oh, my God.
Jeffrey
I'm sorry. Kevin.
Kevin
Dude, I'm gonna strangle you through this phone.
Jeffrey
Don't do that. We have criminals that can do that for you after you free them.
Kevin
Yeah, get a lot of strangulations for my five grand.
Jeffrey
You sounded so shocked when you heard what the charity was actually for.
Kevin
I might not be able to sleep tonight.
Jeffrey
No, you could help a convicted convict named Diesel get off of his burglary charge. Oh, my God. He wants to come to your house and thank you in person.
Kevin
Get in line.
Jeffrey
Oh, yeah. Fatal's going to meet you first. All right, after. You'll get along great.
Jason
Yeah.
Jose
Brook and Jeffrey's phone taps on the 20.
Show Announcer
Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.
Jeffrey
Most men tend to have similar thoughts running through their mind at the end of a first date.
Brooke
Oh, okay.
Jeffrey
Where the thinking is now the right time to go in for a kiss. Do I ask them to stay the night? Should I tell my mom to leave the apartment once we start rounding second base?
Jose
Oh, my God.
Jeffrey
I mean, it might be nice to have her in the other room just for more moral support. Good job, honey. I don't know. It's just, you know, typical guy thoughts.
Jose
No, no, no, no.
Jeffrey
Yeah, but one of our listeners says the only question he was asking at the end of the night was, what the heck just happened?
Brooke
Oh.
Jeffrey
He still has no idea what went wrong, but something must have, based on how it ended. You're gonna hear it in your brand new Second Date update right after this.
Show Announcer
Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Second Date update.
Jeffrey
Today we have a quote, unquote, returning listener. Oh, his name is Jason. Why quote, unquote, he says he's been on the show before for this very segment.
Brooke
And you don't believe him?
Jeffrey
Well, I gotta be honest. I looked back into the archives and I can't find his call anywhere. So was he really on the show?
Brooke
No.
Jeffrey
Is he making it up just to sound cool? Because that's totally what I would do. Yeah, but I guess we might be forced to believe him. I mean, Jason, can you at least jog our memory and tell us what happened the last time that you supposedly were on with us?
Jason
You guys had me on twice.
Brooke
Wait, wait. Oh, wait. You were on more than once?
Jason
We did an update. Update.
Brooke
Did we just never air it? Because it wasn't very funny.
Jeffrey
Yeah. Are you a boring guy?
Jason
Well, I'll start from the beginning. That. Yeah, I was dating this girl, Emily, and she said that she didn't want to go back out on a date with me because I had a hard time saying no. No, she Wanted a guy that could push back more, stand up for his thoughts and opinions. And that's what you guys were helping me out with.
Jeffrey
Okay, so you went out with a woman who wanted her boyfriend to say no to her. Does that sound realistic?
Jose
Brooke, he's just a pushover.
Brooke
Dude.
Jose
Sounds like.
Brooke
I love a man who can make a choice. Yeah, indecision is one of the most unsexy traits.
Jeffrey
Yeah, so you said you were on for an update? Update? That means you two were together. What happened?
Jason
Well, I started being able to stand up for myself from time to time and we actually did end up dating for a little bit there.
Brooke
All right, so why. Why did it end?
Jason
Okay, she broke up with me because she got a dog and she wanted to name it Spinner. And taking your guys advice, I was like, no, that's a dumb name.
Jeffrey
Brooke, why would you tell him that a man should stand up to a woman? That's horrible.
Alexis
It's not your dog.
Brooke
Yeah. Geez, B, that is kind of mean.
Jose
It's a little aggressive.
Jason
I mean, no, I said you need to name it a cute human name, like Kevin. Because that's like funny.
Jose
Yeah, we love that.
Alexis
Get your own dog and name it Kevin.
Kevin
There we go.
Jason
Okay, well that's kind of what she said. Well, anyway, I didn't back down, so I was like, no, you're not naming the dog Spinner. And she ended up breaking up with me.
Brooke
Oh, wow. I bet her and Spinner are really happy though.
Alexis
For real?
Jeffrey
After you gave her exactly what she wanted. A guy that says no, and then she didn't like that.
Jose
No to her own life decisions.
Jeffrey
Yeah, it's hard to decipher what women really want.
Unknown Female
It's not.
Alexis
So did you do that again to another girl?
Brooke
Now? Is that. Is that why you're on the phone?
Jeffrey
No, but.
Jason
But good guess, because I am now dating a different girl. Her name is Riley.
Jeffrey
All right.
Jose
Is that a stupid name? Get that out of the way.
Brooke
Human name. So he's okay with it.
Jose
Okay.
Jeffrey
You like her name?
Jason
Humans with human names are ok.
Jeffrey
Okay, that's a bold stance to take, but good for you.
Jason
Okay, so here. Here's the problem. The date only lasted about 15 minutes.
Jose
Whoa, that's not good.
Brooke
Do we even consider it a date at that point?
Alexis
Just a run in at that point.
Jose
Did you plan on it being a quick date?
Jason
I planned a whole day. So I picked her up at her place and it just started like a normal date, you know? How's your day? Where are we going? Like what's Going on, nice to meet you and stuff. And then all of a sudden, we're barely 10 minutes down the road, and she just says, I think it's best if we don't go out, actually.
Jeffrey
Oh, my God. Before you even get to the destination where you're driving to.
Jose
That's trash.
Jason
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like, the AC barely got the car.
Kevin
Cool.
Brooke
Okay. Did she see, like, duct tape and a shovel in the back seat and that's why she wanted to turn around?
Jeffrey
Yeah, she had to.
Jason
I kind of thought. I mean, I never tried to catfish everybody. All my pictures are current online, but I'm like, think, okay, she probably got in the car, thought I was ugly, wanted to go back home.
Jeffrey
Oh, is that fair, Alexis? Does that happen a lot? Look, why are you laughing? Why are you. Why are you giggling about him thinking that he's ugly?
Brooke
Why would that be your first thought, man?
Jose
Put that aside. I mean, if she didn't think you were ugly, what else, like, was Anything
Jeffrey
else happened that was weird.
Alexis
Shovel, Duct tape.
Jason
No, I mean, I said that to her. I said, what do you mean? Like, you want to go back right now? And the only thing she gave me was that it just wasn't what she expected. Like, I mean, I don't know exactly what she meant by that, but she obviously don't want to talk about it.
Jeffrey
Okay, did you use your. The lessons that you learned from before and say, no, you're staying in this car and we are going on this date?
Brooke
That's a great idea, Jeff.
Jeffrey
I think that's a romantic.
Brooke
I think it's kidnapping.
Jason
But, yeah, didn't quite go there,
Alexis
but
Jason
I dropped her off, and that. That was kind of it.
Jeffrey
So maybe this isn't the best question to ask, but I need to know. Was there a kiss?
Brooke
Okay.
Jeffrey
Come on. It would be funny if they made out passionately and then they left.
Jose
He's like, oh, she spent the night.
Jason
No, no, no. I brought her. I bought her flowers, and she just, like, she just threw them in the back seat of the car, got out, left them. I texted her afterwards. No response. Wants. I guess I'm not shocked, but, like, I just want clarity.
Brooke
And it sounds like even if she did say ugly, you could take it.
Jason
I mean.
Jeffrey
Yeah.
Jason
Yeah, I'm a solid six.
Brooke
There we go. All right. Okay, that's not bad.
Jeffrey
There you go.
Brooke
We can work with a six.
Jason
Yeah.
Jose
You're more attractive than anybody in this room.
Brooke
That's right.
Jeffrey
Look how high Brooke's voice is going. Like, yeah, six isn't bad. That's actually really attractive. I believe you. All right, let's see what Riley has to say. If we can get her on the phone, we'll try and get you your second second date update on this show.
Unknown Female
Oh, yeah.
Jose
Memorable guy.
Jeffrey
Super memorable.
Jose
Jason. Remember him this time?
Jeffrey
Right after this. Hold on.
Show Announcer
Then Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Second date update.
Jeffrey
If you're just joining us, we've got a return caller, Jason on the phone, who describes himself as a solid six. But is he a New York six or an Idaho six?
Jose
Oh, we didn't ask that. That's a.
Jeffrey
There is a difference.
Brooke
Come on. There's somebody for Everybody. Even an Idaho 4 out there. All right, I got married.
Jeffrey
But he only brought up his own looks because after just 10 minutes of driving together, Jason's date suddenly changed her mind and said, actually, this isn't what I was expecting, and she has to be taken home. So his thought was, well, maybe she just didn't think I was attractive enough in person.
Jose
Like, she finally looked left 10 minutes into the drive and was like, oh,
Brooke
my gosh, what if it's not about him? What if she wasn't wearing the right outfit? Outfit? You know, like he explained what they were gonna do for the date, and she's like, I don't have tennis shoes.
Jose
No, because she would have just said, hold on, let me run inside real quick. I'll be right back.
Brooke
He's trying to make it not about sad. Yeah, Ugly.
Jeffrey
It's possible. Jason, have you considered that Riley hates herself a little bit?
Jose
Wait, that's what you got?
Jeffrey
How she looks?
Jose
Oh, now I get it.
Jason
Considering that I might hate myself a little bit now.
Jose
Okay, good.
Alexis
This is not going. You've direction.
Jose
Kidding.
Jeffrey
Guys, the thing is, he never got any specific answer. What was such a letdown? So that's what he's hoping to get today at a bare minimum. And then maybe we'll see where it goes from there.
Jose
And this may be the first time the hope is that she thinks he's ugly.
Jeffrey
Yeah. Two people who both don't find themselves attractive could be meant for each other. That's the optimism that you wanted, right, Brooke?
Brooke
No, I was just saying she wasn't prepared for whatever he had planned that day. Not that she was ugly. Yeah.
Jeffrey
Okay, well, we can all hope for different things.
Jose
Okay, she's mad, he's ugly.
Jeffrey
Yeah. Could be the perfect match.
Brooke
Just call it.
Jeffrey
Okay, Jason, I'm gonna call her here in a second, but real quick, how was she looking that night? Your opinion?
Jason
Better than a six? Pretty good.
Jeffrey
Okay, yeah. Okay. There you go. I won't quote you directly on that, but yeah, let's style her number and see what she has to say. Here we go.
Riley
Hello?
Jeffrey
Hey, we're looking to speak with Ryan. Riley
Riley
speaking.
Jeffrey
All right. Hey, Riley. This is a radio show. We're called Brooke and Jeffrey in the Morning.
Kevin
Morning.
Brooke
Welcome to it. Riley.
Riley
Hi.
Jeffrey
Hey, how you doing?
Riley
I'm sorry, who is this?
Kevin
O.
Jeffrey
That hurts every time.
Jose
Yeah, I thought we were gaining momentum.
Jeffrey
Yeah, but no, we're a radio show. We're called Brooke and Jeffrey in the Morning, and this is a segment that we do called the Second Date Update.
Jason
Okay, I know you're not a woman
Jeffrey
who likes her time to be wasted, so I'm going to get right to this. Good point.
Brooke
Je.
Jeffrey
Um, you went out with a listener of our show, a guy named Jason, and he told us the date didn't go how he thought it was going to go.
Brooke
It didn't really go at all.
Jeffrey
Yeah. Is that a fair assessment?
Riley
We didn't really go out.
Brooke
Yeah, right.
Jose
We're sorry about that. That sucks, huh?
Riley
No, not really.
Jeffrey
Oh, right. We heard it was your idea to not continue the date, but Jason is a little bit confused on why you felt that way.
Riley
Yeah, I mean, I don't know how he could be, but.
Brooke
Really? You think it's something that obvious?
Jeffrey
Yeah.
Riley
I mean, we were in the car and he said, we're going to this restaurant. I know the restaurant. I like the restaurant. And then when I'm in the car, he's like, oh, I didn't make a reservation. And I was like, you know, it's a busy night. Like, you probably should have made a reservation. He was like, oh, well, I don't know any other restaurants in the area. Okay, but we have phones, so just Google. But he's like, you know, it's fine. We can just stand outside and do, like, small talk.
Brooke
Oh.
Jose
Oh, that's an awful backup plan. Like, we need to adjust, you know, he should have.
Alexis
It's done better just planning. Before you even get to the restaurant,
Jeffrey
though, Brooke, what's going through your mind? I'm curious.
Brooke
It sounds like an argument. You have, like, three years into a relationship. Yeah.
Jeffrey
So it's a good.
Brooke
Oh, you didn't make reservations. Of course you didn't. You never put any effort into these date nights.
Jose
You know what?
Jeffrey
That's it.
Jose
Bill, turn the car around.
Unknown Female
Yeah.
Jeffrey
So Brooke's saying, it sounds like you belong together.
Riley
Oh, gosh, we absolutely don't.
Jason
Okay.
Riley
I don't want my time wasted like I don't know why you think, like, I can just stand outside for 45 minutes. It's a Friday night. Like, I'd rather hang out with my friends.
Brooke
Maybe he just misspoke, you know? Maybe he meant, like, we'd go to a bar. We'll walk down the street and see if there's something else while we wait.
Jeffrey
Yeah, but I can.
Riley
I said that, and he then clarified. I was like, oh, you mean, like, get, you know, a drink inside or somewhere next door? And he was like, no, we can just stand outside so we don't miss our name.
Jose
Oh, for this.
Brooke
He sounds like a type of person that arrives five hours early for us.
Jeffrey
Yeah, I can understand how that would be a red flag for Riley, where he doesn't plan ahead enough and she's feeling like he doesn't value her time.
Brooke
But that's a fix. I mean, why wouldn't you make that clear to him in that point? Like, hey, it doesn't feel like you really care about your time with me.
Riley
Well, I did say I. I don't think we're a good fit. Do you mind just dropping me back off? And he said, fine, so I thought it was clear.
Jeffrey
Okay, well, we value your time very much, and that's why we don't want to waste any more of your time and letting you know that Jason is listening to this phone call right now. He's actually been on it the entire time and wants to talk to you.
Kevin
What?
Brooke
Yeah.
Jeffrey
Y. Jason, are you there?
Jason
Hey, Riley.
Jeffrey
Hey.
Jason
Are you just making all that stuff up because you think I'm ugly and you're not trying to hurt my feelings?
Jeffrey
Sticking to his first theory.
Brooke
Why would you say that, Jason? That's not what she said at all.
Jason
I was just. Is it illegal to ask?
Brooke
It sounds like it's something that's in your head a lot.
Jeffrey
Well, this is good to get it out of the way. Do you find. Find Jason attractive or not? Riley?
Riley
I mean, I wouldn't have gone on the date if I didn't find you attractive. I was interested, but your lack of planning just felt like you didn't care and you just thought you could. You know, it seemed kind of arrogant.
Jose
Yeah.
Jeffrey
She's mad about you not having a full plan, it sounds like.
Jason
No, it's not that I didn't have a plan. The plan was just called virtual. You know what I mean?
Jose
Just be together.
Jeffrey
You're a gold flow guy. We're adults.
Riley
That's not a thing. You're not gonna waste my Friday night with just Vibes.
Jose
Different personality types for sure here.
Brooke
But why didn't you pivot and say, oh, shoot, we have a 45 minute wait. Let's pop by next door and discover a new spot.
Jason
If we got there and there was like a place next door, you know, I wouldn't say that I was opposed to that necessarily. I just thought it'd be better to make sure that our name could. We could hear our name. Because what if we miss it all together? That'd be bad.
Jeffrey
At least we got to the core and know exactly what the issue was that caused the problem on this date. So why don't Riley, Jason, you two talk to each other, see if there's some natural chemistry when you just are left alone to your own devices. Go ahead. Jason, why don't you start it off?
Jason
Okay, now we got past that little speed bump here. Riley, if I've made reservations this time, are you in to go? Is that if that was the only that was holding you back?
Jose
Oh, yeah, that problem.
Riley
I don't know. I think you have a lot of self esteem issues going on.
Jason
No, there's no self esteem issues. I know exactly where I sit. I'm a solid six. We know this. We've been over this.
Jeffrey
That was you.
Jason
But yeah, just because everything didn't go exactly your way, I think we're already learning how to compromise. I think this is the start of a beautiful partnership.
Jeffrey
Oh, wow, that's good.
Jason
I've shown you that I can take criticism and respond in a favorable manner. Who doesn't want growth in their relationship?
Riley
I do appreciate that. The jumping to conclusions that I thought you were ugly kind of makes me nervous.
Jeffrey
Why?
Brooke
Well, no, let him respond to it. Why? She just went over the self confidence.
Jose
I think he shook a nerve with Jeff.
Brooke
Yeah, Jason.
Jason
Well, like I said before, I feel like I'm about a six and I feel like you're probably around the same area, so it seems like a good fit to me.
Jose
That was a. Like a kind of a jab.
Jeffrey
Smooth, smooth delivery.
Brooke
Are you trying to be funny?
Jason
It's a good match. You know, we're both not classically attractive.
Jeffrey
Oh, okay.
Unknown Female
Classically attractive.
Brooke
Jason, we were there. You did it already. You already turned it around. Oh, my.
Jeffrey
Okay, well, we're both mid. Hold on, hold on. Riley, is your heart beating fast? Hearing Jason say that to you, it's
Riley
definitely the most romantic thing I've ever heard.
Jeffrey
Well, I'm gonna take that at face value and ask, would you like to go out on another date with Jason? Because we'd pay for it and we'd put the reservation in for him.
Riley
Absolutely not.
Jeffrey
Jason, man, I'm sorry that we couldn't get this to work out between you and Riley. But, hey, we look forward to your third attempt at a second date update where we'll definitely remember who you are.
Jose
We gotta make a note or something. Something on him.
Brooke
Yeah, he's Jason the six.
Jeffrey
Okay, perfect.
Show Announcer
Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.
Jeffrey
Something. We really didn't get to break down too much during that. Is it rude to ditch someone just because they didn't make reservations before the date and you didn't find out till you're in the car?
Brooke
Yeah, like, was she rude? A good point.
Jeffrey
Or was she justified in telling him to turn around the car texting 78592? Because I'm genuinely curious.
Jose
I got to say, she was a little justified if you're on the way to a nice date and the person tells you on the way, no, I didn't make a reservation. And you know you're going to have to stand out for two hours. I'd be like, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Jeffrey
Yeah, I mean, I'm here for the food, not for the company.
Brooke
You didn't give him a chance, though, at all.
Jose
Brooke, girls like me don't stand outside for 200.
Brooke
But I will say, at least you didn't cost him any. Any money.
Jose
Yeah,
Alexis
didn't even take the flowers.
Brooke
Yeah, I forgot about her throwing the flowers.
Jeffrey
Yeah, true that part. It was all out of control. Because I agree he probably should have made a reservation, but I do think it was harsh to call everything off just because there was no serious plan in.
Brooke
Well, it wasn't just that. It was that he wouldn't even pivot to go get a drink next door.
Jose
Yeah, come on. I mean, let's even go to Denny's. Like, let's do something.
Jeffrey
Whatever it was, it didn't work out for Jason this time around.
Brooke
I'm sure he'll be back. Oh, yeah.
Jeffrey
Promise you he will be.
Jose
Will we remember him?
Brooke
We need one of those customer cards where you get a punch every time you come in.
Jeffrey
But no matter who you are, if you've been on once, twice, a million times, we're always here to help. Yeah, email the show. We'll call that person who's not calling you back. And you go find all of our second dates, wherever you find them, online. Get it at your podcast at BrookeandJeffery in the morning.
Show Announcer
Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.
Jeffrey
There's some impressive noise records that have been set over the years, like the Kansas City Chiefs, stadium set the crowd noise record at 142.2 decibels.
Jose
Seahawks did it first. Go Hawks.
Brooke
And only five people went totally deaf after attending that game.
Jeffrey
It was impressive. Taylor Swift concerts set the record for most women all screaming at once, not at their boyfriends. There is another record for that, though. Beautiful. And it's a tie between Brooke and Jose for who registered loudest moan while eating their lunch.
Will
Oh, my gosh. Every day.
Brooke
I know, but the food's so good.
Jeffrey
But today, I predict we're going to set a new noise mark. Loudest booing during a live performance.
Brooke
What?
Jose
No.
Jeffrey
Because this time it won't just be Jose, Alexis and Brooke doing it. All the listeners will be booing along together as I butcher my brand new song. There you go. Get them ready because it's coming up right after this.
Brooke
You suck.
Jeffrey
It is time for my song of the week. It's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. And so much is happening over the next few days. It was tough to decide which event do I focus on, because there's Satin Pillow Fight Day, National Fish Fingers and Custard Day, and of course, International Day of Landmine Awareness, which very, very important for us to be thinking about.
Brooke
And you want to be aware of those.
Jeffrey
Definitely. But I've been checking my socials and shockingly, the holiday most people seem to be excited for is Easter.
Brooke
Hey. Yeah.
Jose
Well, it's the one like, happening.
Brooke
I don't know.
Jeffrey
Did not see that coming.
Brooke
I was talking to a mom friend, literally this morning. She's like, did you know Easter was this weekend?
Jason
Yeah.
Jose
Did you, bro?
Brooke
Yeah, it's just early.
Jeffrey
It does change every single year where it is, so it's hard to keep track of. But what's the thing that people are looking forward to the most? I think many would say the annual egg hunt where children are let loose to go gather as many plastic eggs filled with candy as humanly possible.
Brooke
That's right.
Jeffrey
And most of the time, those events, they run pretty smooth, I would say, as long as the adults don't create a scene and get in the way. But every once in a while, if you're picturing like 40 to 50 children, children there, there's always that one kid who's had a few too many grape jelly beans with his Easter brunch, and he's just got that look on his face where he's like, I know this isn't a contest, but I am going to win this thing.
Brooke
I wanted to win so badly that I was so terrible at it. I would get so flustered, like, oh my God, what way do I go now?
Jose
And then you have awful eyes and
Brooke
then the egg's gone by the time I get there.
Jeffrey
No, see, I'm not talking about that kid that just wants wants to win. I'm talking about the kid that will stop at nothing to come out on top, willing to do anything it takes to make sure he comes away with the most candy of anyone there.
Brooke
He's still in the other kids basket.
Jeffrey
That is who my song is dedicated to today. The sugar crazed, ruthless child who has vowed to come out on top at the Easter hunt no matter what it takes.
Brooke
Are you to the egg hunt bully? Is that who you're.
Jeffrey
I am the egg hunt bully book. And I needed a song that captured that level of unhing anarchy. So instead of doing the hit by Green Day, Basket Case. It's young Jeffrey's Basket chase.
Brooke
Oh, I like it very well. You just add an H and the whole thing changes.
Jeffrey
That's beautiful. If you see this kid, do not try to stop him or get him his way. Just let him have it, okay? It's better for everyone. So I'm going to point when I'm ready. Here we go. Points. Do you know I spied on that
Unknown Female
Easter bunny guy so I'd win all
Jeffrey
the candy in the egg hunt.
Unknown Female
I don't follow those dumb play fair Easter rules, so best stay out the way this chocoholic. Sometimes I get hopped up on peeps like Augustus Gloop. The way I eat. I want Maurice's cups. I won't be running up. If I must sabotage my friend, I won't.
Unknown Female 2
Hey, Lucas, I think your dad is leaving the park without you. You better go.
Unknown Female
You can't prove it's me who pushed you in that tree. Not sure how your shoelaces came to be found. My hand swatted yours, now your basket's on the floor. You thought you had four eggs, but now you're three down. Yeah, I run faster in my cleats. I take a cry for Cadbury. I'll lie and tell your mom that your soul and and still yell and you'll be forced to give them up.
Unknown Female 2
Wait, Olivia. Is that a blue egg you have? I heard the blue ones have vegetables in them this year. Like broccoli and cabbage and stuff. Let me take that one.
Unknown Female
Your basket has a hole.
Jeffrey
Cause I cut the bottom. Sweetie, you need to leave some candy for the other kids.
Unknown Female 2
I am.
Jeffrey
It doesn't look like it.
Unknown Female 2
I'm leaving the bad ones with almonds in them.
Jeffrey
No, honey, that's not being fair, is it?
Unknown Female 2
Oh my God. Mom, it's an Easter hunt, not a soup kitchen. Gee, can you just let me win this thing?
Unknown Female
Please, mom, to cause a panic, I'll yell. Bees. Those eggs I dropped are not her Hershey. My dad says that's enough. I said, hey dad, get stuck. I can't leave this Easter hunt until I won.
Unknown Female 2
Hey Aiden, don't search over here. I heard there's a bunch of eggs right across that four lane street. And you don't even have to use the crosswalk to get there. Yeah, hurry, run before someone else hits them. Alexis, what are you doing here? Ooh, pastel colored M and M's. My favorite.
Brooke
Oh wow, that kid sucks. He wore cleats to the A.
Jeffrey
Every inch matters, Brooke, when it comes to winning the e Easter egg hunt. Come on now.
Brooke
I hope that kid made it out of the street. Okay, I heard a car crash.
Jeffrey
Yeah, that was just Alexis trying to peril apart.
Alexis
I think I missed him.
Jeffrey
Yeah, he got across fine. But that was your song of the week for Easter.
Brooke
Yes.
Jeffrey
Good luck to all of your children at this year's egg hunt.
Brooke
Yeah, make it fun for at least one kid.
Jeffrey
We're gonna post a video up on all of our socials at Brooke and Jeffrey. You can see the lyrics there. Text in 78592. You can tell us what you thought about the song.
Unknown Female
Great work.
Brooke
There it is, Jeff.
Jose
We're all ready for our egg hunts this weekend.
Brooke
I'm scared of him.
Jeffrey
Go get him, kids.
Show Announcer
Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.
Jeffrey
Here comes Peter. Because this weekend is Easter. Or at least that's what my Christian friends keep saying. We're going to to be doing a special holiday edition of Trivia with Brooke where all the questions will be Easter themed.

Oh, interesting.
Jeffrey

I don't know why he's laughing so hard.
Jeffrey
Yes, the generosity. This Easter just keeps on going.
Jose
So is the season.
Jeffrey
Let's generously tell Brooke to Get out of here so we can get to the game. You got 30 seconds to answer as many questions as possible. If you don't know when you can say pass. But you have to to beat Brook outright if you want to win. Are you ready?

Oh, the black licorice one I love.

He immediately came up with. He went right to it. Well done, William. Now Brooke is coming back into the studio, and it says here on my screener, will, it looks like you might be leaving our location soon and moving to St. Louis to be where with your family.
Kevin
Thinking about it, I'm still 50 50, but I'm leaning towards that way.
Jose
Follow your heart, brother. Follow your heart.
Brooke
Follow the arch, man. That's it's waiting for you.
Jeffrey
Well, you know what? If this happens, we are going to miss you. So we're going to take this time to reminisce over the three losses that you've already had against Brooke. About a year and a half ago, Will lost 4 to 2. Those were good days. Then around nine months ago, you lost 3 to 1. And then in a close one, you lost 5 to 4. Happy times. When you think back on your life here in this area, you're going to think of getting donkey punched by Brooke over and over again.
Kevin
Don't worry, I got. I got the app.
Jason
I'll still be listening on it daily.
Jeffrey
All right. You can lose from anywhere in the country.
Brooke
That is true anywhere in the world. Really?

Brooke
O Black licorice.
Jose
How did you both immediately come up with that?
Brooke
I love it. I love black.
Kevin
That's it.
Jeffrey
Answers are in. We're going to go to the scoreboard to see how you bolted with Jose.
Brooke
Have you seen the Easter bunny who
Jeffrey
comes on Easter morning? Banos A.
Jose
Will, you got two correct.
Brooke
O.
Kevin
All right. All right. I'll take it.
Alexis
Hey.
Jose
All right. And Brooke? Four correct. Wow.
Jeffrey

You may not move. It's okay.
Jeffrey
Why move when you get to have experiences like this locally?
Kevin
True.
Brooke
Stay here.
Jose
Keep getting beat by Brooke.
Jeffrey
It's fun. Let's go over the answers. For everyone, the official flower of Easter is the lily. The white lily. Specifically, it represents resurrection behind chocolate bunnies and peeps. Reese's peanut butter eggs are the third most popular brand of Easter candy.

Jose
We need to make an app.
Jeffrey
Biggest event of the year. And out of a survey of 5,000American Americans, they say the worst tasting flavor of jelly bean is licorice.
Jose
Black licorice?
Jeffrey
Yes.
Brooke
Do you like black licorice, Will? I love it.
Kevin
I eat it.
Jeffrey
Yeah, it's candy. So, Will, thank you for playing. It wasn't enough to win, but just for being on the show, we're giving you a pair of tickets to see Charlie Puth perform at Wamu Theater, Sunday, May 3rd.
Kevin
All right. I have to come back for that.
Unknown Female
All right.
Brooke
Well, Will, we're really gonna miss you around here, you know? Make sure you write us, okay? Don't be a stranger.
