1. Introduction to the Second Date Update Segment

The episode kicks off with Matt Rogers introducing the "Second Date Update" segment, where Brooke and Jeffrey engage with listeners who have faced challenges in securing a second date. The hosts aim to provide insights, humorous commentary, and sometimes direct intervention to help listeners navigate the often tricky landscape of dating.

2. Listener Story: Isabella's Unique Encounter

Isabella calls in to share her unique dating experience with Justin, an Uber Eats delivery driver. She recounts how their first meeting was quite unconventional:

• Matt Rogers [03:05]: "Today's caller, Isabella, met a guy in a pretty unique way too."
• Isabella [03:17]: "I hit him with a log truck." (Note: This is likely a metaphorical or humorous exaggeration to describe the intensity or suddenness of the meeting.)

Isabella explains that while arranging her food delivery, she encountered Justin, leading to an immediate spark. Their initial interaction seemed promising, and she took the initiative to text Justin through the app, hoping to arrange a second meeting.

• Isabella [06:22]: "I hope to get a chance to drop off food by my place again, with a winky smile."

3. What Went Wrong: Phone Interruptions During the Date

The first date between Isabella and Justin was marred by frequent phone interruptions, primarily due to Isabella attending to calls from her mother and work. These interruptions created an awkward atmosphere, leading Justin to cut the date short.

• Matt Rogers [07:47]: "I can't think."
• Isabella [08:12]: "Yeah, I know it wasn't a good look on my part, and I know I messed up."

Isabella expresses regret over not managing her phone better during the date, acknowledging that her constant phone usage may have signaled disinterest or lack of attentiveness to Justin.

4. Hosts' Intervention: Calling Justin for His Perspective

Determined to uncover Justin's side of the story, Brooke and Jeffrey decide to reach out directly. They call Justin to discuss Isabella's experience and understand his reasons for not pursuing a second date.

• Matt Rogers [10:08]: "Why are you calling me?"
• Jeff [11:27]: "We're a show called Brooke and Jeffrey in the Morning, and we just called you."

5. Justin's Clarification and Explanation

During the call, Justin clarifies a confusing part of Isabella's story regarding "baby talk" during the date. Initially, Justin thought Isabella was speaking to her pet, but he soon learns it was a professional interaction with her long-time assistant.

• Justin [16:15]: "Guys, I was talking. It was a work call, and I was talking to my assistant, who I've known for over a decade."
• Isabella [16:13]: "It's the baby voice for me, Justin."

Justin explains that his "baby talk" was a playful interaction with his assistant, whom he has a decade-long friendship with. This misunderstanding highlights the importance of clear communication during dates to prevent misinterpretations.

6. Reflection and Conclusions

Despite the hosts' efforts to mediate, Justin remains uninterested in pursuing a second date with Isabella. The primary issue stems from the distractions caused by phone interruptions, which impeded meaningful connection during their initial meeting.

• Matt Rogers [17:35]: "Yeah, I probably would have, but now I don't know what to think."
• Jeff [17:26]: "I mean, answer the phone. That's annoying because it's... not a big deal."

The episode emphasizes the significance of being present and attentive during dates, underscoring how external distractions can negatively impact potential relationships. Brooke and Jeffrey conclude by acknowledging Isabella's honesty and encouraging her to take these lessons forward in her future dating endeavors.

Notable Quotes:

• Isabella [04:23]: "No, she means that your heart skipped a beat because he was high."
• Justin [14:54]: "I was so shocked, and I was afraid that she was gonna say yeah. I thought it'd be best if I just sip my drink, tip my hat, and get out of there."
• Matt Rogers [19:31]: "Push the button and call. It'd be very easy."

Timestamp Highlights:

• 03:05: Introduction to Isabella's story.

I'm so glad you found them. Follow like Whatever you're supposed to do on these podcasts and just sit back and listen.

[Matt Rogers]

Second date update. We've done so many of these second date calls. What's the strangest way we've ever heard of two people meeting? Can you guys think of one?

[Isabella]

God, whenever you ask me to remember them that. It's so hard, Jeffrey, I can't think.

[Matt Rogers]

The only one I can remember was back in 2018 with the colliding zip lines. Fortunately, they didn't both make it, but at least they got to know each other for a few seconds before the other one had to let go.

[Isabella]

Was there one going uphill and one go? I doesn't know.

[Matt Rogers]

It was a crash course to love a little bit too soon. But hey, that's something. You guys remember that anyway.

[Isabella]

Totally.

[Matt Rogers]

Today's caller, Isabella, met a guy in a pretty unique way too. Hopefully this one is still with us. So, Isabella, welcome to the show. I heard you hit him with a log truck. Is that true?

[Bowen Yang]

Maybe that's why he's not calling you.

[Matt Rogers]

I shouldn't be tell story for you. Why don't you tell us the story of what happened? What's this guy's name, first of all?

[Bowen Yang]

So this guy's name is Justin, and he's pretty damn cool.

[Isabella]

Okay, what makes Justin so cool?

[Bowen Yang]

Well, he's pretty to look at.

[Isabella]

Oh, he's on.

[Matt Rogers]

How did you. How did you meet him?

[Bowen Yang]

So, just randomly, I think. I want to say about a week, week and a half ago, I ordered some food through one of the apps.

[Isabella]

Okay.

[Bowen Yang]

The entrance to my building is a little hard to find. That's why I went ahead and called Justin.

[Isabella]

Oh, he was a delivery driver.

[Bowen Yang]

He was the delivery driver. And, you know, I just thought I'd make life easy. I went downstairs, I waited, and then finally I saw his car pull up, and I just kind of waved him down.

[Isabella]

Oh, my gosh.

[Bowen Yang]

Yeah. And I was in my sweatshine. I was just chilling. And the thing is, when he got out of the car.

[Isabella]

Yeah?

[Bowen Yang]

I think my heart stopped.

[Isabella]

Oh, that is so cute.

[Matt Rogers]

Or was it like a medical emergency? Are you okay?

[Bowen Yang]

Oh, my gosh.

[Matt Rogers]

The cutest heart attack. Oh, my God.

[Isabella]

No, she means that your heart skipped a beat because he was high.

[Bowen Yang]

Exactly.

[Matt Rogers]

Yeah. Okay.

[Isabella]

Oh, my God. Were you immediately like, oh, my God, how do I make a connection? How do I make a connection? Like, going through your mind? Yeah.

[Bowen Yang]

First thing I thought of was, oh, my God, I look like crap.

[Matt Rogers]

Like, oh, man.

[Isabella]

No, but I always like that. Meet them when you're at the Lowest. So everything you do from then on is going to be, like, better, right? I guess.

[Matt Rogers]

But it's hard to hit on them and be like, you know, I got a bottle of wine upstairs and a bra. Alexis, you used to be a driver of food, right? Did you get a lot of people trying to, like, run? I hate confrontation.

[Isabella]

I tried to drop that food off as fast as I could. I drive away fast, remember? That's why she's so good at track.

[Matt Rogers]

So how did you, like, approach him? I wouldn't even know what to say.

[Bowen Yang]

Yeah, so when he gave me my food, I couldn't help myself. I started flirting with him.

[Isabella]

Yeah.

[Bowen Yang]

I said, you know, just little cute things, like, how long you've been doing this?

[Matt Rogers]

And that's always a good question.

[Isabella]

That's so funny. Do you come here often?

[Matt Rogers]

Yeah. That is, like, the Uber question to ask any type of driver. How long you been doing this?

[Isabella]

That's when you're, like, in the car. This guy has, like, other orders to take. That's a good point.

[Matt Rogers]

Yeah. How long did the interaction.

[Bowen Yang]

I mean, I want to say a good five minutes.

[Matt Rogers]

Oh, wow. That's a long time.

[Isabella]

So he didn't care about other people's orders. He was ready to take another order.

[Matt Rogers]

That's actually a good sign, bro. Do you think that he stuck around? Was he into you?

[Bowen Yang]

Well, I was hoping it wasn't just for the tip, but I think he was kind of entering the. Right after he dropped off my food, I immediately sent him a text through the app.

[Isabella]

Oh, right.

[Bowen Yang]

I said, I hope to get a chance to drop off food by my place again, with a winky smile.

[Isabella]

Oh, my God.

[Matt Rogers]

You got to order dessert right away.

[Isabella]

That is so risky, though, because, like, you don't know if this guy's in a relationship, you know? I mean, you don't know anything about him, but I. I love that you took the chance.

[Bowen Yang]

If I didn't take the chance, I would have wondered.

[Matt Rogers]

Right. Yeah. Shoot. Your shot. So did something come of it, or was that the end?

[Bowen Yang]

Yes, it actually did. He called me, we started chit chatting, and then we decided to meet up.

[Isabella]

Oh, yeah.

[Matt Rogers]

Oh, a real date.

[Isabella]

Now, wait, like, that same night or.

[Bowen Yang]

No, no, no, no. Like, a couple days later, we met up with a happy hour.

[Isabella]

Okay.

[Matt Rogers]

Okay. And is this, like, you're eating other people's food that you're delivering with him, or is this a real happy hour?

[Isabella]

That would be a really good happy hour.

[Matt Rogers]

You're just sitting in the backseat chilling.

[Bowen Yang]

No, no, guys, it was a real Date.

[Matt Rogers]

Okay, What'd you do?

[Bowen Yang]

We met at the location. It was a happy hour. I gussied up, of course, because I didn't want to. Remembering that image of me.

[Isabella]

Yeah, right.

[Bowen Yang]

Okay, so we went in, we got a couple of drinks, we started to sit down. Chit chat. Here's the problem. I started getting a lot of phone calls. Well, they just randomly happen. Like, one was a work call that I had to pick up. Another one was my mom, and she was freaking out because she couldn't take a screenshot of something.

[Isabella]

Oh, God.

[Bowen Yang]

I spent like 15 minutes telling her, no, mom, you hold both of them together.

[Matt Rogers]

You hold on.

[Bowen Yang]

I mean, I had to. She. It's my mom. God forbid something was wrong.

[Isabella]

I always silence my mom. I'll call you later.

[Matt Rogers]

Yeah, I'm hoping something's wrong. Not answering.

[Bowen Yang]

He was really nice about it. He had a smile, and he's like, don't worry about it. I get it. But I could tell as every call came through, I could see he was starting to get annoyed.

[Isabella]

Yeah.

[Matt Rogers]

Yeah. Because you keep answering the call.

[Isabella]

Yeah.

[Matt Rogers]

Annoying to anybody. You silenced them and addressed it.

[Jeff]

Wow.

[Matt Rogers]

I'm getting a lot of calls. I'm sorry about that. That's one thing. But you're answering them. So.

[Isabella]

So that's a regretful moment for sure.

[Bowen Yang]

Yeah, I know it wasn't a good look on my part, and I know I messed up.

[Matt Rogers]

So what's happened since then?

[Bowen Yang]

Well, the date only lasted about an hour, and he said he'd call me back, and he didn't.

[Isabella]

The one call you actually wanted.

[Bowen Yang]

All right, I'm hoping you guys could help me out.

[Isabella]

I'm sure he feels like you weren't even that interested. You know what I mean?

[Matt Rogers]

Like, yeah, this is more like, he obviously is interested. It's the. Why is it the phone calls? Like, what was it? You know, these are good questions. Let's remember them for when we come back. And call Justin, the Uber Eats driver that Isabella met while he was dropping off her food. Yeah. Is it a true love connection? We're gonna find out when we call him. In your second date update. Right after this second date update, apparently we met the one person in the entire country who admits when they're on a date with a cute guy, they're gonna pause that date to help their mom figure out how to screenshot her own phone. I don't think anybody else would have done that, but Isabella did. Yeah. She's not getting a call back from Justin. It could just be because you're such A great daughter. He's intimidated by it. I think she's just not very self aware. I could see you just answering the phone. Next thing you know, you're talking, you look up, oh, my God, I'm on a date. What am I doing?

[Isabella]

It feels like you. Yeah, exactly.

[Matt Rogers]

Yeah.

[Isabella]

Easily distracted.

[Matt Rogers]

I can see it. Yeah.

[Isabella]

Isabella, does that make you feel better?

[Bowen Yang]

Not really.

[Isabella]

Okay. At least she's honest. At least she's honest.

[Matt Rogers]

But you know that you're on a radio show right now and you know that we're going to call Justin for you to try and get you a second date here.

[Bowen Yang]

Yes, I'd love that.

[Matt Rogers]

Okay. Okay.

[Isabella]

We never asked. Did you ever, like, text him after the date and apologize or be like, my bad.

[Bowen Yang]

Yeah, I should have in hindsight, but no, I didn't. I just called him and I thought during the conversation I could bring it up, but I never got a call back.

[Isabella]

Oh, okay. So you were just waiting. So this is going to be the first call from you.

[Matt Rogers]

And to be fair to you, you don't know if that was the main problem on the day. Maybe his reasons are totally unrelated to the phone call.

[Isabella]

It could be, but hopefully there's not more problems.

[Matt Rogers]

Yeah, he's like that. And it could be a personal problem on his side that has nothing to do with it.

[Isabella]

Let's blame him. I like it. Jeff.

[Matt Rogers]

All right, let's call him right now and accuse him of being a bad d. Go. Hello? Hey, we're looking to talk to Justin.

[Jeff]

Yeah, this is him.

[Isabella]

Hey.

[Matt Rogers]

Hey, Justin. We're a radio show calling you. Okay, sorry.

[Isabella]

Just tell them who we are. Jeff, just continue the sentence.

[Matt Rogers]

We're a show called Brooke and Jeffrey in the Morning and we just called you. Jeff wanted you to know that if you didn't know.

[Jeff]

Okay.

[Matt Rogers]

Okay, yeah, sorry. I'm not very good at my job. Justin, you're gonna learn that as this call goes on.

[Isabella]

We're here to help him, Justin.

[Matt Rogers]

But we have a lot of fun, so that's cool.

[Jeff]

I'm sorry, why are you calling me?

[Matt Rogers]

Good question. Because we do this segment called a second date update where we try to help our listeners get in touch with people that they've gone out with once before. They want to see them again. So that's the case with you and one of our listeners, Isabella.

[Jeff]

So what did she tell you?

[Isabella]

Oh, okay.

[Matt Rogers]

Right to business. You remember, Isabella.

[Isabella]

But listen, he said that you said that with a smile on your face.

[Jeff]

Yeah, it's definitely a smile. I don't think it's for the reasons you think it is.

[Matt Rogers]

Beaming. Well, I mean, here's what we know about your guys's date. There was happy hour. She said that it didn't last very long. There was only like, an hour that you two spent together, which, I mean, we do a lot of these. That's pretty short for as far as these interactions go.

[Jeff]

Well, that's how long I was happy. I guess.

[Isabella]

It wasn't happy hours.

[Matt Rogers]

Okay, did it have anything to do with the fact that she was on the phone for, like, most of the time?

[Isabella]

Yeah. That is regrettable.

[Matt Rogers]

She brought that up to us.

[Jeff]

Yeah. You know, the phone calls weren't great.

[Isabella]

Yeah, she knew that. She feels so dumb.

[Matt Rogers]

And apparently one of them was from her mom.

[Jeff]

Yeah, there was one from her mom, which, honestly, that wasn't a big deal. My mom really sucks at tech too. I literally just got done texting her about how to use her Apple tv, so I get it.

[Matt Rogers]

Oh, okay.

[Isabella]

So your understanding of that.

[Matt Rogers]

She was really self conscious about that one. She thought maybe that was a deal breaker.

[Jeff]

No, I mean, like, answering the phone. That's annoying because it's. Your mom is kind of endearing. But, you know, there was another phone call. That was what kind of turned me off.

[Isabella]

Really? Oh, she said a friend. Maybe a call too. Is that what you're talking about?

[Jeff]

Yeah, definitely a friend.

[Matt Rogers]

Why are you laughing?

[Jeff]

Okay, so here's the long version of this, I guess. But we were talking. Whatever. About our lives. We do, blah, blah, blah.

[Isabella]

Yeah.

[Jeff]

And she said she had a cat.

[Isabella]

A cat.

[Matt Rogers]

A cat?

[Jeff]

A cat?

[Matt Rogers]

Yeah. Okay.

[Jeff]

Like, she loves this cat very close to the cat, teaching the cat tricks. Okay. Then goes to say that my cat, like, we talk. She talks. She does these things. And I mean, I've seen like, Instagram videos where a cat. It sounds like they say I love you when they're really just, like, chirping or whatever.

[Matt Rogers]

Okay, that's funny.

[Jeff]

Yeah, exactly. I'm like, oh, sweet. But after the mom calls, the phone goes off again, but her voice totally changes.

[Isabella]

How so?

[Jeff]

Instead of being like, oh, hey, mom, it was like, hey, baby.

[Isabella]

Like that, like, pet talk voice. Like when you talk?

[Jeff]

Yeah, like, baby, talk to who?

[Isabella]

Who was on the other end?

[Jeff]

Well, I mean, we just got done talking about her cat, so immediately I think she's talking to the cat.

[Isabella]

What?

[Bowen Yang]

Yeah.

[Isabella]

How is the cat calling her?

[Matt Rogers]

Yeah.

[Jeff]

And she's like, are you up on the counter? You shouldn't be on the counter.

[Matt Rogers]

That's not allowed.

[Jeff]

Okay, so how the hell did the cat call the Phone?

[Matt Rogers]

Yeah. Did you say anything to her? Like, did you bring up. Is that your cat that you're talking to?

[Jeff]

Absolutely not.

[Matt Rogers]

No way. No way.

[Isabella]

Cats use Alexa to make calls.

[Jeff]

Yeah, I was just so shocked, and I was afraid that she was gonna say yeah. I thought it'd be best if I just sip my drink, tip my hat, and get out of there.

[Matt Rogers]

Okay.

[Isabella]

It could not have been her cat calling her. Like, how that's the best option.

[Matt Rogers]

They have little buttons for animals to talk. You can easily program one of them out of here. Let's find out, because Isabella is actually on the other line wanting to talk to you all about this right now.

[Isabella]

Isabella?

[Jeff]

Of course she's on the phone.

[Matt Rogers]

Why?

[Jeff]

I mean, you could have just led that she's here.

[Matt Rogers]

It's kind of how the segment works. Maybe your cat's there too. Isabella. Let's hope.

[Bowen Yang]

That's ridiculous.

[Isabella]

Wait, it's ridiculous?

[Bowen Yang]

You make me sound like a crazy person. Who. What the heck are you talking about?

[Matt Rogers]

She wasn't talking to her cat. She was talking to her dog. Come on.

[Jeff]

Yeah.

[Isabella]

Who was on the counter exactly? Alexis, who were you talking to?

[Bowen Yang]

Guys, I was talking. It was a work call, and I was talking to my assistant, who I've known for over a decade, and we work together in a design shop.

[Matt Rogers]

What?

[Isabella]

You talk baby talk to your co worker and tell her to get on.

[Bowen Yang]

Guys, we're best of friends. When I told him, did you get on the counter? He understood that because, well, sometimes you have to get on the counter to manipulate the lights, so he should have been using a ladder instead of putting his yucky shoes on the countertop.

[Isabella]

It's the baby voice for me, Justin.

[Matt Rogers]

Does that explain the baby voice to you?

[Jeff]

No, it's your assistant, the person you hired, and you're gonna talk like a baby to your assist.

[Bowen Yang]

We've been best of friends for 10 years. We joke around.

[Matt Rogers]

No, that's how every. That's my professional voice here, too. Isn't that right, bro? Don't you want to do a prank phone call?

[Isabella]

There would be workplace violence if you talk to me like that.

[Matt Rogers]

Oh, somebody's cranky. I think somebody needs to go to the break room and have a snack.

[Isabella]

I don't know how instantly I can go to rage. Dude, are you being serious, or are you just trying to cover up the cat? Is this true, guys?

[Bowen Yang]

Talking to a cat like a baby sounds insane to me.

[Matt Rogers]

To us too. Justin, where's your head at? We're not here in front of you.

[Jeff]

Where's my head At. Okay. I kind of wish it was the cat now.

[Bowen Yang]

Come on, Justin. Are you being serious? Like I said, we've been friends for so many years. Like, we have this rapport. I could talk to him like that and he'll turn around and be mean to me. I mean, it's just. We're just friends.

[Matt Rogers]

Is part of your friendship. I mean, think about it this way, Justin. If that call never happened and you never heard her talk that way, would you still be interested in going out with her?

[Jeff]

Yeah, I. I probably would have, but now I don't know what to think.

[Isabella]

Well, I mean, it seems like it. You could give it another shot and.

[Matt Rogers]

Who knows, maybe like in a few years down the road, she'll start talking like that to you.

[Isabella]

I don't think that's a sell.

[Matt Rogers]

I do. I do. Yes, I do. Yes, I do. Love you. It's worth at least finding out because we would offer to send you guys out one more and we'd pay for that date.

[Bowen Yang]

I'm willing to do a redo if you are.

[Matt Rogers]

Yeah, we know you are. That's why you called. The whole point is it's his decision.

[Isabella]

Yeah. That was her big girl voice, Justin.

[Jeff]

That was the big girl voice. Okay, if we can promise that phones go on silent and away, I would do it again.

[Matt Rogers]

Okay.

[Isabella]

Okay.

[Matt Rogers]

Can you do that, Isabella?

[Bowen Yang]

I will do one better than that. Oh, if you get a chance to meet my co worker, I will let you talk to him that way.

[Isabella]

Wait, wait, Justin. You want a baby talker co worker? I think that's what the offer was. I'm not.

[Matt Rogers]

I like that offer. I'm out.

[Jeff]

I'm done.

[Matt Rogers]

We had him and then we lost him. No.

[Isabella]

Did he say no?

[Matt Rogers]

Yeah, he sounds cranky too. It's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. When we first heard these two met over a food delivery order, I was thinking, oh, this is going to be the first ever second date meat ugg. What's a meat? You know, instead of meet cute because she was disheveled, she said she didn't have her makeup on. It's a meat ugg. But we didn't even talk to them about that when they were both on the phone together. No, we just focused on her weird baby voice calls.

[Isabella]

It's interesting. He wasn't worried about the sweatpants and the messy hair at all.

[Matt Rogers]

No, actually, no. As soon as the baby voices started, then we all kind of chimed in and went into our own baby voice talk.

[Isabella]

Yeah, it was a little sad.

[Matt Rogers]

I still really, really, really w Like, yeah, my cat called me. I was talking to my cat.

[Isabella]

You were so adamant, Jose, that cats can call people during this whole thing.

[Matt Rogers]

Have you guys not seen the there's.

[Isabella]

Got to be a way they could.
