Welcome to the second date podcast with Brooke and Jeffrey. And yesterday we had our awkward Thursday phone call where a sister who's hosted and her whole family has decided to charge. Not just for the dinner.
Jeffrey
No.
Alexis
But for her grandparents to get VIP.
Brooke
Parking and for a new garage door.
Alexis
And she's still got time to add more fees by Thanksgiving. I mean, she definitely was in charge of the situation. If you didn't hear it, you need to listen. There are a lot of comments about what went down. Your guys comments were killing me, but T card said I need to call my sister and tell her how much I appreciate her after listening to this.
Brooke
Oh, that's true.
Alexis
And then Em said, thank God I only listen from my family. If my sister or brother heard, I feel like they probably might give it a shot. Yeah, that's definitely the one episode you don't want to share with any family members.
Brooke
Literally giving people ideas.
Alexis
I know that. That's a good point. Oops. Well, hey, keep those comments coming. We got a brand new second date for you and it's starting right now.
Brooke
Second date update. You ever see those videos of marathon runners who are in the last stretch right before the finish line and they start celebrating a little bit too early?
Alexis
Do it.
Olivia
Don't do it yet.
Brooke
At the very last second, somebody else passes them.
Anthony
Yes.
Brooke
Or they run right into a car. Oh. Oh my gosh.
Alexis
Dude, I missed that viral video.
Brooke
Well, it also can happen on a first date. Cuz one of our listeners said in his email he got all the way back to his place and just couldn't cross the finish line. So he needs our help today. I don't know if I want to know what that means.
Alexis
Yeah, that's okay.
Brooke
I know Brooke, you like to cross the finish line in the first five minutes, but Anthony does it a little bit differently. Anthony, welcome to the show.
Anthony
What's up, guys?
Alexis
Okay, can we like establish what your finish line is again?
Brooke
You're jumping right to the finish line at the very start of the call. Let's get to. Let's get to the finish line in a normal amount of time. Okay, we'll begin with the girl's name.
Anthony
So her name's Olivia.
Alexis
Olivia.
Brooke
Olivia.
Anthony
Olivia or J. Olivia Olivia.
Brooke
Okay. And according to my notes, it says you met Olivia on a dating app. So what did you do, bond over that brought you together?
Anthony
Well, she had something on her dating profile that made me laugh and.
Brooke
Okay, that's awesome. What was it? The humor?
Anthony
She said, I. I never know what to do with my hands during hugs.
Alexis
During? Don't you just put them on the person's back?
Brooke
You like, embrace, right? But I guess the question is where on the back do you put them? Do you go high? Do you go low? Do you go one of your hands through hair? Yeah, she loves.
Alexis
I do not do that. Okay.
Anthony
Yeah, it depends on the energy, I guess.
Brooke
Yeah.
Olivia
Okay, sure.
Alexis
So you related to that? You thought it was funny.
Brooke
It's silly, right?
Alexis
Yeah, for sure.
Anthony
And I was like, I don't know either.
Brooke
Oh, I'm imagining a hug between you two is very confusing.
Alexis
Okay, so that was your funny response back to her and it, it sparked conversation.
Brooke
Yeah.
Alexis
Yeah.
Anthony
And we said we should hug in person and test it out. So.
Alexis
That's cute.
Anthony
I thought I was in. You know, I thought, I thought that was my green light.
Brooke
That is kind of a green light. What do you mean? Sure, you're getting a hug. It's a smooth line to start things off.
Alexis
So did you go to dinner? What'd you guys do for your date?
Anthony
Yeah, well. Well, we hugged when we seen each other and.
Alexis
Oh, when you very first met.
Brooke
Okay, hold on. Don't tell me you were that guy. That's like, where's my hug?
Anthony
I tried not to, but then she was kind of like put her arms out. So I. I just went in and.
Brooke
O good.
Alexis
That is such a cute first interaction. Yeah, but where did you put your hands?
Anthony
I don't even remember. I was like so caught up in the moment.
Brooke
Oh, it's R rated. Sounds like. Okay. All right. You dog. Anthony.
Anthony
I could tell there's an attraction because every time I talk, she would either touch or slap my hand. So I thought it was kind of flirty.
Brooke
I'm not sure if 100% you're reading that right.
Alexis
Yeah, I don't know, you know people who like slap the table when they're laughing or they, you know, like slap their nudge. Yeah, just like, I gotta get out of here.
Brooke
Slap the waiter as he walks by. Okay, so what you two talk about during your date? Cuz according to your email, it sounds like you bonded over both having bad roommates.
Anthony
Yeah. Yeah. I used to have a roommate who would always leave loads of wet laundry in the washer for a day. You just forget about them.
Alexis
Yeah, it's all mildewy.
Anthony
Yeah. Until my entire apartment smelled like mold.
Alexis
Yeah, I mean, that's a good, like, related. Totally, totally. What was her horror story about her roommate?
Anthony
She had, like, this old roommate who used to keep, like, 40 packs of hot dogs in her fridge or something.
Brooke
Hey, you never know when you eat a glizzy. Come on.
Anthony
Well, she ate them raw. This is the weird thing. She ate them raw straight out of the bag.
Alexis
Can't be good.
Brooke
Well, yeah. So you two bonded over awkward hugs and midnight hot dogs.
Alexis
Yeah. Bad roommates.
Brooke
Okay, yeah, let's go to the finish line part, because in your email, you said you were back at your apartment and what happened.
Anthony
Yeah, I mean, like, our whole conversation. Like, maybe the easiest flowing conversations I've ever had on a first date. That's why I suggested we get more. Maybe more drinks back at my place.
Alexis
Okay.
Anthony
No bad roommates waiting there. Okay.
Alexis
That's funny.
Brooke
How did she react when you asked her?
Anthony
Well, she was down. She actually said, let's go. So we get to my apartment, I gave her the full tour, I hit the bathroom real quick, and I tell her to help herself to whatever drink she wants to get in the fridge. When I came out, she already got her coat back on. She tells me it's later than she thought. And you just had to go, oh, no.
Alexis
Did you have in your fridge? That's weird. That's what I'm thinking. Alexis, what stinks in there?
Brooke
Or there was 10 packs of hot dogs in there and she was like, oh, no, not again. Yeah, she's like, only 10, 20 in this. I'm hungry tonight.
Alexis
I mean, we have heard a lot of stories of people who have things in their apartment that they didn't realize was strange and somebody else found it, like, off putting.
Brooke
It's possible. I mean, other than the pole in the swing in your living room, is there anything else weird that could have, like, driven her away? She's on the swing when he comes out. I gotta go.
Anthony
Boy, it sucks because she hasn't answered my text since that night.
Alexis
Oh, so she.
Anthony
I know I did something wrong with.
Alexis
You and you've reached out.
Anthony
Yeah. But I'm not trying to, like, stalker and stuff, so I just quit.
Alexis
Okay, that's good.
Brooke
We're just saying. I'm not trying to stalk her. Yeah, so now we're gonna stalk her. All right. Or call her. Sorry, I said the wrong word. Yeah, slap her with questions. Verbally slapping is their love language. Slapping hands, she's gonna verbally slap.
Alexis
She's the only one allowed to do that in A relationship.
Brooke
Yeah, we'll leave the slapping to you two and we'll just ask some normal questions when we come back. And call Olivia to get your second date update with awkward hugs and hot dogs.
Alexis
O. That sounds like a cool man.
Brooke
I know. Sounds kind of nice, actually. We'll do it right after this. Hold on. Second date update. Some couples bond over similar TV shows, similar coffee orders, similar unpaid parking tickets.
Alexis
Oh, my God, that reminds me.
Brooke
You too, honey. Oh, Brock. Oh, Call your husband. Let's have a bonding moment. But our listener Anthony today says he bonded with a woman named Olivia over awkward hugs and roommates eating hot dogs straight out of the bag. Yeah, hot dogs and hugs. Is this a funny term? Yeah, it's a true love story packed with delicious preservatives. We're trying to make it come to life today. The weird part, though, happened at the end of the night back at Anthony's place when he told her to go make herself a drink. And by the time he got back to the kitchen, she had her coat on, saying it was actually late and she had to go. So either Olivia truly lost track of time or there's something Anthony isn't telling us.
Alexis
Yeah, about what's in his house fridge.
Brooke
Maybe he doesn't know guys.
Alexis
Like, honestly, how many options he had. That is a good point. Like, it could be really helpful, Anthony. Like, maybe you'll learn something that women don't like about your house and you can change it.
Anthony
Hey, guys. I'm not a weird guy. That's what you're thinking? I mean, I have some weird stuff hanging around, but I'm not a weird guy.
Alexis
Okay, listen. No. No weird guys ever know they're weird guys, Anthony. That might be the self realization we come to.
Brooke
And then fast. He's like, it was the 10,000 ninja stars on my wall.
Alexis
Exactly.
Brooke
No way.
Alexis
What? Not everybody has 20 pet iguanas.
Brooke
Let's find out how not weird you really are, Anthony. I'm going to dial Olivia's number and she hopefully will validate everything you just said. You ready to do this?
Anthony
Yeah.
Brooke
Okay, you got this little weirdo. We're on your side for now, but here we go.
Jeffrey
Hello.
Brooke
Hi, we're looking to speak with Olivia.
Olivia
Yes, this is she.
Brooke
Hey, Olivia. We are a radio show. A bunch of people in the room here. We call Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Good morning, Olivia.
Alexis
Welcome to the show.
Anthony
Hi.
Olivia
What is this?
Alexis
Great.
Brooke
Yeah, this is. It's a segment that we do called the Second date update. Not sure if you're familiar with that. But we're trying to help out one of our listeners that you went on a date with recently. And afterwards, he's feeling like you're trying to distance yourself a little bit. What's that, Jeff?
Alexis
You haven't responded to any of his texts. I mean, she knows. She knows. Yeah.
Olivia
Is this Anthony?
Brooke
No, this is Brooke and Jeffrey. Yeah, the guy that we're talking about, his name's Anthony. That's true.
Olivia
Oh, my God.
Alexis
Wait, is that. Oh, my God, like, oh, my God, so cool.
Brooke
It didn't sound like it.
Olivia
Their managers are so disappointing.
Alexis
Yep. Oh, no.
Brooke
Okay. Yeah, I told them not to come through our show. We thought it was weird, too.
Alexis
Wait, why are you lumping him in with disappointing men?
Brooke
Yeah, what happened?
Alexis
Because it sounds like you guys had a nice date.
Olivia
It's just that every single time that you have, like, you feel like you start to have a connection with the guy, he just immediately ruins it.
Alexis
Oh.
Brooke
Yeah, that's kind of our thing.
Alexis
Yeah.
Brooke
I mean, yeah, but what did he do?
Olivia
Well, we had a great time on our date, but then we ended up going back to his place.
Alexis
Yeah, we heard that.
Brooke
We were asking Anthony about this when we spoke to him if there was anything weird inside of his place that may have come across weird or been a turn off, he said, no, it's a perfect, perfect room. But you left for some reason.
Alexis
It sounds like you were only there for, like, five or ten minutes before you bailed.
Olivia
Yeah, well, that wasn't originally my plan. I was thinking that we might have, like, maybe some, like, romantic time. Because I haven't really felt close to a guy, like, in probably years.
Alexis
Whoa.
Brooke
Wow. You were very comfortable with him.
Jeffrey
That's great.
Alexis
Yeah. You liked him.
Brooke
It must have been a pretty big thing that happened to change from romantic time to darting away from his apartment.
Anthony
Yeah.
Olivia
Yeah. I mean, we were having a great time, but then at one point in the night, he excused himself to go to the bathroom. And, I mean, I'm just assuming he's changing.
Brooke
Okay, what happened?
Olivia
Well, when he's in the other room, he decides, like, from down the hall, he just tells me something that I, like, was not prepared to hear.
Jeffrey
What?
Brooke
Oh, like yelling through the door or something?
Alexis
Yeah, like, he's going down to the bathroom and he says.
Brooke
What?
Olivia
Well, he tells me he has hep C. Oh.
Brooke
He says he has hepatitis C. Oh, that's.
Alexis
That's serious.
Olivia
Yeah. I don't know if I can even say that on the radio.
Alexis
Okay.
Brooke
Are we allowed to?
Alexis
Yeah, people have it, and they should be Open about it. I mean, it's interesting to casually mention it as you're walking away. You know, it seems like a bigger conversation.
Olivia
He seems, like, very confident about it. Like, oh, it's no big deal. Hey, by the way, I have Pepsi.
Brooke
Oh, okay. So did that change your mind?
Alexis
But the yelling it down the hall is the weird part. Oh, God.
Anthony
What? What? I never said that.
Brooke
Yeah, hold on. Hold on there, Anthony, because we need to inform Olivia that that is your date on the other line listening to this. He's been there the whole time. Yeah, that's how this segment works, is we have them quietly listen so that they could hear what they did wrong.
Anthony
And Anthony, apparently I never said I had hep C. What?
Brooke
You never.
Olivia
You definitely 100% did.
Anthony
Oh, no, no, I didn't. There's no way. The only time we were talking loudly is when I was in the bathroom.
Olivia
I know. I asked you, hey, is there anything that I should know? And you said you had hep C. Oh.
Jeffrey
Oh.
Brooke
Seems pretty straightforward.
Alexis
That's a very honest response, which is good.
Anthony
Oh, my God.
Brooke
Not something that seems like you would forget. No, you.
Anthony
You asked me what Dr. I have to mix with, and I told you I have Pepsi.
Alexis
Pepsi. Pepsi.
Brooke
You said Pepsi. Anthony, are you making that up because you're feeling a little bit embarrassed?
Anthony
I swear to God, she asked me, what do you have to drink? And I said, pepsi.
Brooke
And he could have misheard you through the door too, if she's like, hey, anything I need? And he's like, oh, yeah, yeah, drink. Anthony did tell us that he encouraged you to go make yourself a drink while he was using the bathroom. It makes sense that he'd be talking about what sodas to mix with.
Olivia
Yeah, yeah, yeah. He definitely. He definitely did that. That could have been my mistake.
Brooke
Alexis, you've been with a lot of guys who've had hep C. Does this seem like something that would check out?
Alexis
I wouldn't even talk to him through the bathroom door. Don't get that close to a guy in the bathroom ever shouting from down.
Brooke
The hall, like, I'll talk to you in five minutes. I mean, maybe this is all just one really horrible miscommunication. Olivia, do you believe him? That he was shouting Pepsi at you? You were there.
Olivia
I mean, we did have a great time, like, all before this happened. So I guess, Anthony, I can. I can believe you on this one.
Brooke
Okay.
Alexis
Okay, that's good. Maybe you can get together and discuss all the diseases you have and don't have together.
Brooke
Yeah. Okay. I'm just happy that we finally sorted this out because that was. Was quite a misinterpretation.
Olivia
Yeah. Yes.
Anthony
I mean, I have had hep C before, but that was like earlier this year. It's gone now.
Alexis
Wait, I don't think that's how hep C works, my man.
Olivia
Wait, what?
Anthony
I'm joking, guys. Not really.
Alexis
Okay, that is a poorly timed joke. Starting to think that maybe we should double.
Brooke
It felt real. Is it possible that you have Pepsi and Hepsy?
Anthony
I can mix them together.
Brooke
Okay. Oh, all right. I don't know if that sounds appealing. I just.
Anthony
Tomato, tomato.
Brooke
Oh, sure.
Alexis
I don't think this one is tomato, tomato, tomato, kumquat.
Brooke
Different things. A lot of questions are going through my head right now, but the main one is, Olivia, would you like to go out on one more date with Anthony, who is, according to him, totally hep C free. It's really up to you. But Pepsi full. Yes, lots of Pepsi.
Alexis
Don't even drink high C. That's a whole other one.
Brooke
If you're willing to give them another chance, we'd pay for it.
Olivia
I mean, I do. I do believe him that he said he had Pepsi, right?
Alexis
Sweet.
Olivia
Yeah. Maybe before we go out, he should go get tested to make sure that. That he's telling the truth.
Brooke
Okay.
Alexis
That's reasonable something.
Brooke
Anthony, you'll agree to that, right?
Anthony
Yeah. I mean, I'm pretty busy, but I could set up a date, I guess, to go and get tested.
Brooke
This feels pretty important, Anthony. Of think he has it now.
Anthony
Yeah, yeah, no, I'm just. I'm just super busy, guys.
Jeffrey
Okay?
Brooke
I don't know what's going on anymore. Did he say busy or did he shout Hepsy again?
Alexis
Protection's important.

Brooke
Isn't it weird to think that this entire thing could have been avoided if he just had Sprite in his fridge? Oh my God. Shut up. That one choice led to this entire thing. He wouldn't have had to reach out to us. She wouldn't have been running away from his apartment. They might have been engaged by now for all we know.
Alexis
I mean that is quite the commercial for Sprite. Yeah, I see it now.
Brooke
I bet Pepsi stock goes down after this second day Sprite or 7Up. Look, I don't want to get into cola wars started here, but it sounds like the good news is they're back onto the right track and they're not going to yell mixer options across the apartment through closed doors anymore. Yeah, thank goodness.
Alexis
Let's just not talk to each other while we're in the bathroom. Yeah, yeah, it's just a good rule of thumb. Nothing good happens that way. Jeff.
Brooke
Through the door that. Excuse me. Stream with it but yeah. Yes.

Jeffrey
All.
Brooke
This is that classic HBCU vibe. Non stop action. The band is rocking and the crowd lit. Chance in shekel drum beat everybody showing that school pride game like this.
Jeffrey
Yeah.
Brooke
It calls for an ice cold Coca Cola. Ah, crisp and refreshing. That's a game changer right there. Yeah, that taste always hits the right note. Just like a band at halftime. And just like that we're back at it. Passionate fans, school colors everywhere, adding ice cold Coca Cola. That's a winning combo no matter the sport, no matter the yard. Everybody knows fan work is thirsty work. So grab a Coca Cola and keep that HBCU pride going.

Podcast: Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
Episode Date: November 14, 2025
Host: iHeartPodcasts
This episode of "Second Date Update" centers on a quintessential miscommunication that derailed what seemed like a promising first date. Listener Anthony reaches out to Brooke and Jeffrey for help after being ghosted by Olivia, who abruptly left his apartment at the end of their evening together. The hosts dig in to uncover whether it was an awkward hug, a fridge full of hot dogs, or something altogether unexpected that turned Olivia off. As the group investigates, they uncover a hilarious and cringeworthy misunderstanding about soda—and health—that almost ruined Anthony's second date chances.
The episode is lively, playful, and rich with teasing banter. Brooke and Jeffrey engage both the caller and each other with fast-paced jokes and witty commentary, balancing empathy for the daters with a comedic lens on the absurdity of modern dating communication fails. The conversation moves naturally between lighthearted teasing and more sincere moments of vulnerability, making even a cringe-worthy miscommunication feel approachable.
For those who missed the episode, this summary covers:
Listeners are reminded to be clear, especially when talking through bathroom doors, and to double-check before assuming the worst. And, when in doubt, maybe just have Sprite available.
