That's why Premier Protein shakes are my go to. They have 30 grams of protein, 160 calories, no added sugar and they taste amazing. So they're a healthy choice you'll actually want to make. It's it's not just for fitness. It's for getting after life. 30 grams of protein gives you the fuel you need. It's not just for intense gym sessions, it's just for life. With the wide variety of flavors from cafe latte to cake batter, it never feels boring. It's a flavor for everyone. I personally love the peaches and cream, but maybe you're a root beer floater cinnamon roll kind of person. Premier Protein powers me to say yes to more. Find your favorite flavor@premierprotein.com that's P R E M I E R protein.com or at Amazon, Walmart and other major retailers.

Why have I asked my electrician I found on Angie.com to bury my pet hamster Nibbles in our yard for me? Because I was so moved by how carefully he buried my electrical wires, I knew I could trust him to bury my sweet Nibbles after his untimely end.
Brooke
Huh.
Jeff
Nibbles gone too soon. May he scurry in peace.
Craig
Hey, sorry about your pet, but I just wire stuff.
Jeff
Nibbles would have loved you like a brother.

Brooke
Hey, welcome to it. Your back to back classics this morning and I'm double header. Yeah. This is like people's favorite day.
Craig
Yeah, it is.
Brooke
I mean it's one of our most downloaded days of the week. I don't know what that means, but we. We appreciate it.
Jeff
Sure.
Brooke
And we're about to get started. But we always love to start with your comments. Yeah, Ruby said.
Bowen Yang
I watched Zootopia 2 last night.
Brooke
And I have come to the conclusion that Jeff is the fox, Brooke is the evil sheep, Alexis is the cute little girl mouse and Jose is the leopard cop. What's the girl mouse? Does she mean the bunny? Probably.
Bowen Yang
Okay.
Alexis
Oh, I couldn't remember but I think is the cop like the big. The big chubby guy?
Jeff
The big leopard cop?
Brooke
Yeah. He's so cute.
Alexis
Yeah, he's adorable. Okay, I'm down to be there.
Brooke
And he's kind of like cute and dumb.
Juliet
Ye.
Alexis
Yeah, cute, dumb and yeah, just likable.
Brooke
He is likable. Why? Why do I got to be evil, man? All right, I'll smart bro.
Alexis
You can outsmart all of us whatever and ever you want.
Brooke
At least she's in charge. All right. Your back to back classics start right now.
Jeff
Okay, let me go through my second date checklist of approved behaviors. Regular coffee meetup. It's fine. Check.
Brooke
Yeah, it's great. You get a sound effect for it.
Jeff
Walk around the city and talk about life goals. Another check on that.
Brooke
That's kind of cute. That check is so positive.
Jeff
I like finding out an interesting surprise when you get into the other person's car. Ooh, I don't know if I can really. I'm going to give it a check anyway. You know what? I'm giving it a check.
Brooke
You walk through right through red flags, don't you?
Jeff
Well, that's what we're looking for whenever we do these calls. Little bit of weirdness. And it definitely came up in today's second update. You're going to hear it right after this.
Brooke
Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Second date update.
Jeff
I've got a genuine question. Are coffee dates good?
Brooke
What do you mean? Like good in what way?
Jeff
Well, I just mean some people can interpret them as being too casual or a sign of low interest.
Alexis
Okay, I don't have a low interest, but they're definitely casual.
Brooke
Is it bad that I just feel like they're too sober? But that's just me. You're sober and you're probably not going.
Melissa
Home with them after.
Alexis
Yeah, the thought of maybe a makeout or not a coffee makeout.
Brooke
Leave with bad breath.
Jeff
Brooke thinks most bars are too sober for her liking. So I don't know.
Alexis
You guys want to go to the.
Jeff
Vodka factory, but you know, I think that's nonsense. Cuz these days you don't know which weirdo you might be matching with on the apps. That's true. Grabbing coffee is a safe, low investment date in terms of time and money. Plus you get to see if there's a little romantic attraction when you cheers your macchiatos and your pinkies touch.
Brooke
Don't do that.
Alexis
Wait, don't. If she's getting a macchiato, do not match her.
Brooke
You would order that?
Craig
Yeah.
Alexis
Oh, you would get a more. More like girly drink than she did.
Jeff
Did my coffee cup linger on your coffee cup?
Brooke
Did our lips.
Alexis
Our coffee lips?
Jeff
Something's going on.
Brooke
Pinky down.
Jeff
But that's exactly the idea our listener Craig had.
Brooke
Oh, good.
Jeff
Not with the macchiatos. In terms of a coffee date, that's what he did the other day. Craig, welcome to the show.
Craig
Thanks for having me. Good.
Brooke
Oh, yeah, yeah. I say good like he asked us a question.
Alexis
Good. And you like, have a good day.
David
Sorry.
Jeff
Somebody needs some coffee this morning.
Brooke
It sounds like ye.
Jeff
Craig, thanks for being on with us. Tell us about the date you went out with the other day. Who's this lady?
Craig
Juliet is her name. And I heard the intro there and I agree, coffee dates are good. You can figure out a lot about a person's foundation just on a date.
Brooke
Okay, so it sounds like just even you saying that you're looking for something more serious in the dating world right now. Am I assuming the right thing?
Craig
I think it's time to settle down with somebody rather than do all of these hookups all the time.
David
Yeah.
Brooke
Okay, cool.
Jeff
Okay, that's awesome.
Craig
Get to know somebody rather than get Drunk with them immediately.
Jeff
You had Brooke for a second, and you lost her again.
Brooke
I don't know why you can't do both, but.
David
Okay.
Craig
I'm trying to change.
Jeff
Yeah.
Alexis
Yeah, well, drinking and hooking up, you really don't have a lot of substance when you're sober. You get to know someone, you're building a better structure.
Craig
No, drinking and hooking up, you have too many substances.
Brooke
Yeah, that's.
Jeff
You can just do one. So you said Juliet was this girl's name. How did your meetup go at the coffee place?
Craig
Oh, my God. She's good. She's beautiful. She has beautiful hair, beautiful eyes.
Brooke
That's nice.
Craig
She's ambitious, just like me. My goal is not just to be regular millionaire. I want to be a multimillionaire.
Bowen Yang
Oh.
Craig
All right.
Brooke
And how are you going to do that? Do we want to hear that right now?
David
I have a.
Brooke
Well, I'm just curious.
Jeff
Brooke wants to steal the idea.
Brooke
I mean, some people will say it, but they don't actually have, like, an action plan, except for, like, buy lottery tickets.
Craig
Investing. Investing is the future. I just got to stay the course and be diligent about it.
Brooke
Okay.
Alexis
Investing, stock market stuff.
Brooke
Okay. Did you tell her that? Like, was she impressed?
Craig
I think so. I think she was impressed. I mean, she. I said I want a mansion and a lake house. She said she also wants a mansion on a lake. On the lake.
Bowen Yang
So.
Jeff
Yeah.
Brooke
Isn't everybody wanting?
Alexis
I was like, I'm looking for more, like a shack in the middle of the city.
Bowen Yang
Yeah.
Jeff
I want to hit the median income and no more.
David
No more, no less.
Craig
Yeah. You'd be surprised about how many people don't care about making money or any of that stuff. They just want to vibe and have a good time with somebody.
Juliet
Okay.
Brooke
I think both would be good, but. All right, so she was into it.
Craig
She was into it. And we're just getting to know each other. We talked about our job. She does marketing. She's an assistant marketing director at corporate. She works corporate. I thought that was the coolest job.
Jeff
Okay, there you go.
Craig
And she doesn't even want to do that forever. Like, she wants to get on to even something bigger, which I thought was exactly my vibe.
Brooke
And you guys are talking about, like, big future stuff, like yourself. Like, it's a lot happening at this coffee shop.
Jeff
Yeah.
Alexis
You know, is that why coffee is more like a business lunch kind of thing?
Jeff
About that.
Craig
It's short.
Jeff
It's kind of a professional vibe when you're in there talking about business strategies and things. Where did you spend the whole time, in the coffee shop?
Craig
No, we went on a walk. We went. I said, do you want to go for a walk? She said, sure.
Alexis
Nice.
Craig
And we took our coffees to go. We ended up at my car, actually. And we're just. We sat in the car and talked about life for a while.
Alexis
A good car seat is nice. It's been a while.
Brooke
But she trusts you. I don't know why getting into a dude's car is sketchier than getting into a man's apartment. At least he gave her the coffee first.
Juliet
Yeah.
Brooke
Traps her in the car and takes her away. Okay, got her. Yeah.
Craig
Yeah, we didn't go anywhere. We just sat and hung out in the car and continued chatting.
Brooke
I know. I'm just saying it's a sign that she trusts you. Yeah.
Jeff
That's all.
Bowen Yang
That's all.
Craig
Well, I thought she trusted me, and then I offered to drive her to her car, and she was like, no, I'll just walk. It's pretty close.
David
But I was.
Craig
I thought that was, like, a little cold.
Brooke
Oh, really?
Alexis
Well, you felt the vibe.
Brooke
I mean, I don't know. I think she may have just said that, not even thinking that you would want to drive her. You thought that that was another moment of connection.
Jeff
I mean, we've heard a lot from you, Craig, but maybe it was too much talking for Juliet. Oh, yeah.
Alexis
Especially if I'm all excited on board. You definitely talk too much.
Brooke
It is a good question. Did you do listening to.
Craig
Yeah, of course. It was. The whole day was seamless. I felt like we really connected, and I don't know why she hasn't taken me up on a second date.
Jeff
Maybe it felt to her like there was a lot of discussion and not enough, like, romance.
Alexis
Yeah. Like, did you once put whipped cream on her nose?
Brooke
Don't do that. Don't put. If you did, that's the reason.
Melissa
You're not kidding.
Alexis
Okay, well, then we eliminate by process of elimination.
Jeff
All right, We've eliminated one of the wrong things that could have happened and.
Alexis
Confirmed I'm never gonn have a girlfriend.
Jeff
Let's see if we can call her and figure out if there's anything else when we come back. And reach out to Juliet to get you your second date update right after this.
Craig
Okay, thank you.
Jeff
All right, man, hold on.
Brooke
Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Second date update.
Jeff
If you're just joining us for part two of the second date update, we've got Craig on the phone, and Craig has an interesting strategy when he goes on dates. He likes to talk to them. Which, personally, I'm more of the silent, mysterious type. Let my body do the talking.
Brooke
You just sit and stare.
Alexis
Or dance and let her.
Jeff
Or let someone talk to my body. I'm not opposed to that. That's why I admire Craig. Because on his date, he and Juliet spoke about their ambitious dreams and the giant mansion by the lake that they hope to own together someday.
Brooke
Well, they didn't say together. Well, they both want one.
David
That would be the plan.
Brooke
Yeah. Yeah.
Jeff
And you know what? How cool would it be to do a live update? Update 5 years from now from Craig's private island in the Caribbean? Craig.
Alexis
See how his investments went.
Jeff
Yeah, I see that for you, Craig. I really do. Let's manifest it today.
Craig
This is exactly my plan. You don't have to tell me. Oh, okay, good.
Alexis
I need to work on an Italian accent already.
Brooke
We're in the Caribbean.
Alexis
Oh, I thought you said Italian beaches.
Jeff
It could be like an Italian design.
Alexis
A Caribbean Italian beach.
Brooke
I mean, all new rich people have.
Jeff
Italian designs and fancy Italian cars out in the garage.
Alexis
Thanks for having my back on that one, guys.
Jeff
We got you.
Craig
I want it all.
Jeff
Okay, well, cool. Hopefully when all that happens, one of us can live with you in your giant mansion.
Brooke
Because I don't do floors. Just by the way, man.
Alexis
I'll take the bathtub, bro.
Jeff
Okay, but in the meantime, maybe we'll find you your future partner here. If we can get Juliet on the line and get her to answer. So I'm dialing it right now.
Craig
Good luck, guys.
Jeff
Good luck to you, too. Here we go.
Juliet
Hello?
Jeff
Hey, is this Juliet?
Juliet
Yes.
Brooke
Oh, hi, Juliet.
Jeff
Hi.
Juliet
May I ask who's calling?
Jeff
Well, my name is Jeff from a radio show you may or may not be familiar with. It's called Brooke and Jeffrey in the Morning. Hi.
Juliet
Oh, yeah, I've heard of you guys.
Bowen Yang
Oh, really?
Brooke
Okay, maybe you follow us on socials or anything. Just check in at brookeandjeffrey.
Juliet
I know I don't follow you, but okay, you could.
Brooke
The YouTube is really good. Brooke.
Jeff
So desperate.
Juliet
All right, why are you guys calling me?
Brooke
To recruit social media followers.
Jeff
Apparently one of us needs.
Brooke
But actually stage moming the whole show.
Jeff
The thing is, Julia, we're calling because somebody reached out to our show, asking us if we could try to get a hold of you. A guy that you went out with recently named Craig.
Juliet
He called about me?
Brooke
Yeah, yeah, he's excited about you.
Jeff
Cuz what we're doing here is a segment called the Second Date Update, and we're just trying to help get him some answers because you're not responding to him after you guys hung out the other day.
Juliet
That's right.
Brooke
That is right. Okay.
Jeff
Okay, so we're on the same page there. I guess what we'd like to know is what was your perspective of the date? Because according to Craig, it seemed like a really good time.
Juliet
I think I just have some fundamental differences with Craig that are just not going to work out in the long term.
Alexis
Fundamental?
Brooke
Dude, that's crazy, because that was like the thing that he was talking up with you is that he thought you guys saw eye to eye on where lives were going.
Juliet
And I thought so too, at the very start, but the specifics are a little bit incompatible, I'd say.
Jeff
Okay, well, could you get specific with the specifics? What was it specifically?
Brooke
Yes.
Juliet
So, okay. The date went really well. At first. I was excited to go out with him because he just was. He's kind of a different sort of guy than who I normally go out with. Like, I usually. I've been going out with a kind of shy guys lately. He's more of like a loud, assertive, cocky, like, entrepreneur type guy.
Jeff
Okay.
Brooke
Anytime you say entrepreneur, I start to worry.
Alexis
I mean, there's a range of what that could mean.
Brooke
Totally. Totally.
Jeff
She's worried that someone makes more money than her and that's very intimidating.
Brooke
Like, oh, no, I don't care.
Jeff
But sorry, go ahead, keep going. Juliet. He's ambitious and confident. I don't know what you were saying.
Brooke
You were liking those things about him. You were excited to try that out.
Juliet
Yes. So I also bring in quite a bit of money and I'm looking for somebody kind of similar. I'm a hardworking woman.
Brooke
Okay.
Juliet
So I was excited to go out with him.
Jeff
Mm.
Alexis
Yeah. And I think a lot of people like to date like minded, career wise people right around the same income.
Brooke
I mean, sure, if you want. If you're a driven person, you probably want to be around someone who's driven.
Alexis
These are all well said.
Jeff
These are all positive things. What we're trying to figure out is what turns you off to him. Like, why wouldn't you call him back?
Juliet
So we went on a walk, and at the end of the walk, he asked me to come back to his place.
Jeff
He felt the vibe that much.
Brooke
Oh, that's interesting. He didn't bring that up because I thought you guys just went and sat in the car and talk.
Juliet
Yeah, we didn't go anywhere. So he took me to his place and his place was his car. That's all he had What?
Brooke
Wait, he's living in his car?
Juliet
He lives in his car? Yeah. So he's living in his car to try to save money.
Alexis
Oh, that is so extreme. So he doesn't even have a place to live? He's putting it all in investments.
Jeff
Wow.
Juliet
Yeah.
Alexis
Is that what he said?
Juliet
Instead of spending his money on rent, he's buying banana coin and spank chain and stuff?
Jeff
I don't know. Banana coin? Is that crypto?
Alexis
It is.
Brooke
Is it, Joe? Crypto? 16 year olds by.
Juliet
It really is a real thing. I looked it up after the date and it does exist. I was skeptical too.
Jeff
So what part of that was the turnoff to you?
Juliet
So he has enough money to afford his own place, but he's choosing to live in his car? He is actively choosing to do that, which I just think is ridiculous.
Alexis
So you don't think living below their means is the way to.
Brooke
Well, I have a friend who lives in a minivan and he can come hang out whenever I need him to because he can drive from wherever. Sticky.
Juliet
But would you date him, though?
Brooke
Yeah. No. He's single. Yeah.
Jeff
Okay.
Brooke
It's a good point.
Jeff
I. I will say, when we spoke to Craig, he didn't mention that he currently resides in his vehicle. He just said you guys hung out there. And I would love to ask him about it because he is on the other line right now waiting to talk to you.
Juliet
Ooh.
Brooke
Yeah, good thing they have cell phones, because it's not. A landlady's calling on.
Jeff
Craig, are you there?
Craig
I'm here. I'm listening to all this.
Jeff
Yeah. So why don't you talk to Juliet about what you just heard?
Craig
Well, I told you, Juliet, I told you that I could get a nice apartment if I wanted to. I'm just making a smart financial decision and you could do the same thing. I don't know. Also, I didn't tell these guys that I lived in my car. Thanks for. You blew up my spot there.
Juliet
Well, maybe the reason why you didn't tell them is because that's weird. You're showering at Planet Fitness and sleeping in Walmart parks.
Brooke
That's what my friend does too, because they're everywhere.
Jeff
Yup. Yup. And is your friend super rich? Alexis?
Brooke
I don't know about that. At least that's a van. Like where you're in a car.
Craig
I'm not just in a car. I'm in a Tesla.
David
Hello?
Brooke
Oh, that sounds so uncomfortable to sleep in. They have camping mode and no privacy.
David
It's worth it for the dream of.
Craig
The lake house and the helipad.
David
Which you were on board with.
Brooke
Yeah.
Juliet
Oh, I'm on board with that, but I'm not on board with sleeping in a car where you can't even stretch out.
Craig
Julia, where's your money invested now? I can get your money in the right crypto.
Juliet
Oh, dude, Morgan Stanley's taking care of my stuff. I don't need any help.
Alexis
Keep it that way to stick up.
Brooke
For him a little bit. Like every billionaire has some story about how they struggled.
Bowen Yang
Yeah.
Brooke
Oh, they started it in the garage. They were living with their mom.
Alexis
Yeah, but they didn't have six figures at that time yet. They had no choice on.
Jeff
I think there's a good chance that Craig is going to come back and throw this segment in our face and point to us as the people that didn't believe in him and propelled him to his ultimate success.
Alexis
He's going to buy the radio station and be our boss.
Brooke
See? And remember this moment when I stuck up for you, Craig.
Alexis
We all deserve raises.
David
Craig, I will remember none of this.
Craig
I'm way too focused on investing right now.
Bowen Yang
This doesn't even.
Craig
This is in the background for me.
Bowen Yang
Okay?
Craig
And, Juliet, I'm just so shocked you wouldn't want to hit your wagon to this star.
Juliet
Let me know when you get there if you do. But I don't really want to be. I don't want to be slumming it in the meantime.
Craig
I'm the kind of guy where you either get in on the ground floor.
Jeff
Or you get out.
Brooke
I mean, the good news is, Julia, you never have to stay at his place. He'd always be at yours.
Juliet
Yeah, that's true.
Jeff
And more good news is you wouldn't have to pay for your guys's neck next date, because we would cover that if you would agree to see him one more time.
Juliet
I don't think so.
David
But I bought you coffee.
Brooke
Oh, oh, oh.
Juliet
He had an investment in you.
Brooke
Not I owe you now.
Juliet
You want me to Venmo you or something?
Alexis
She's like, I make more than you do, bro.
Brooke
Just pay him in banana coin or whatever the hell that was called.
David
Yeah, you know what?
Craig
On the way to the lake house stream, every dime counts.
David
So I would like you to Venmo.
Craig
Me for that coffee, please.
Alexis
$7.
Juliet
That is so petty.
Brooke
To 10, easily.
Jeff
I didn't know after Banana Point stock takes off. Yeah. You're going to get up to, like, $10,000.
Juliet
Yeah, no problem. I can afford that. And I can afford my rent, so I'll venmo you.
Jeff
Craig, you won't be.
Craig
Able to afford your rent for long. Not in this economy.
Brooke
Okay, guys.
Jeff
Okay. So there really wasn't much of a romantic transaction here.
Alexis
No, it was very business.
Jeff
Yeah.
Craig
And Juliet, no hard feelings. If you still want to invest, just let me know.
Jeff
Okay.
Alexis
Hey, always started to diversify, right?
Brooke
Yeah, like I'm starting to feel like more of a debt collector than anything else on this segment. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.

Jeff
I'M a little embarrassed about this, but I Vow to be 100% honest with my co hosts and I will tell you after that call ended, yeah, I did Venmo. 20 bucks to Craig to put into spank chain for me. I just, it sounds like my kind of thing. Spanx chains. What's not to like?
Alexis
It sounds cool when you buy now because they're like you have 4 million coins and you're like, wow, yeah, it's already worth a thousandth of a percent.
Brooke
I wasn't gonna tell Craig. That was so annoying to me. I dated a guy who lived in his car and his mom was like a lawyer and his dad was a judge. I'm like, you don't need to live in your car. Yeah, you stop pretending like you're poor. I ha.
Alexis
This is just you on adult timeout?
Brooke
Yes. God, it annoys me.
Jeff
The only thing that we are willing to invest fully in, though, is our listeners. Yeah, email the show so we can invest our energy into helping out your love life. Or at least we'll try and go check out all of our second date updates on Apple, Iheart, Spotify, or Spankify, whatever it is. Wherever you get your podcasts.
Brooke
Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.
Jeff
When you go out drinking, there's three basic phases that you can hit. There's the I'm just gonna have one to loosen up phase. Yeah, it doesn't usually last very long. A little later, you reach the everyone's my best friend and we all have to dance phase.
Alexis
I've seen Brooke in this phase many times.
Brooke
Let's take pics together. That's my favorite phase. I love you all.
Jeff
And then there's the final phase where shame and bad decisions thrive and memories and self reflection, respect go to die. And one of our listeners got deep into phase three the other night during his first date. So now he needs our help to figure out what exactly happened. Cuz when he woke up the next day, he was not in his bed, not in his date's bed. In fact, he wasn't in a bed at all.
Brooke
What?
Bowen Yang
What?
Jeff
Where was he? Has no clue. You're gonna hear what happened in your second date update.
Alexis
Date next.
Brooke
Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning, second date update.
Jeff
I try to think back about the time in people's lives when they partied the most. And I'd say if you went to college, it was probably there. Yeah.
Brooke
God, you should see what happened to my GPA when I moved into sorority house. It's not good.
Jeff
Perfect grades.
Brooke
No.
Jeff
Oh, weird. I mean, the thing is, even if you didn't go to college, it probably happened at the college frat party that you crashed.
Alexis
Also true.
Jeff
That was where you went the hardest. And I know our listener today, David. He didn't go to a college party, but he says he sure raged like he was at one during his first date. Oh, wow, David, you sound like my type of guy, bro. I mean, like 10 years ago, you would be. I don't want anything to do with you now, but we're glad to have you here. Welcome to the show, man.
David
Hey, how are you?
Brooke
Okay. Are you saying this with pride or with shame?
David
Lots of shame, I'll say.
Brooke
Okay, that's where I needed to know. Where we starting at?
Jeff
I would own it. Yeah, but that's okay.
David
Yeah, I'm owning it. But I. I could have made a whole full amount of myself. I have no idea.
Juliet
Oh.
Jeff
Oh, sure.
Brooke
That's even worse.
Jeff
Okay, well, what do you remember? Do you remember this girl's name?
David
Yeah, so I do, because she was super attractive to me. We matched on a dating app, me and Melissa.
Jeff
And Melissa.
David
One of her pictures, she had, like, a oversized band tee and, you know, like, a bunch of piercings all the way down her ear.
Brooke
Okay.
Craig
Yeah.
David
So, I mean, she seemed really cool. Right up my alley. Like, she knows how to party. That's what it seemed like.
Brooke
Okay, so you're going into it thinking, like, this girl can party.
Jeff
This girl's fine.
Brooke
Let's go.
David
Yeah, yeah, yeah, for sure. I. I didn't think she was any kind of prude. Like, I thought that we could, you know, ball to the wall, like, let.
Alexis
Loose and hang and.
Brooke
Yeah, can we say that right?
David
Exactly.
Jeff
Oh, well, it's too late. It's.
Brooke
Interesting. Okay.
Jeff
All right. This girl looks like she knows how to have a good time. So what do you do for your date?
David
We were gonna meet up at a bar, was the plan. I got there, you know, I'm shocked.
Jeff
Party girl wants to meet up at a place where they. Well, you.
David
You knew where this was going, you know?
Jeff
Okay.
Alexis
I wasn't thinking it was gonna be a museum.
Brooke
Did you set up the date when you were talking to her like, all right, let's go party? Or were you like, let's go have a cocktail at happy hour?
David
Well, it wasn't happy hour. A little later than that, but I just said, let's meet up for some drinks.
Jeff
It was a crazy.
David
It started off me getting there a little bit early, and I was nervous because she seemed really cool, and I wanted to seem cool, so I was getting loosened up. You know, I feel like I'm a little funnier, a little. A little more loose when I've had a couple drinks I made.
Brooke
So you're already ahead of her when she shows up. What is it like when she gets there?
David
It was great. We were laughing, having a great time. It seemed like we were really connecting. She seemed super duper cool.
Jeff
Good.
David
Yeah. Well.
Alexis
Maybe not good.
Jeff
What happened?
David
I continue to drink pretty fast and heavily. And we didn't eat. It was around dinner time, and we really didn't eat dinner.
Brooke
No.
David
I don't remember having a single glass of water as well.
Brooke
No. So you got sloppy.
Bowen Yang
Yeah.
Jeff
I'm with you, dude. Water's for the week. Yeah.
Brooke
That's not a cute look.
David
If I want water, I have a Michelob ultra. You know, there it is.
Brooke
That is not okay.
Jeff
Sorry.
Brooke
Where was Melissa in her drinking?
David
Yeah, I'm not 100 sure, honestly.
Alexis
Oh, no, dude, it was that bad?
David
Yeah, I kind of. I kind of browned out. I'll say. I had, like, memories here and there, you know? But I remember I was having fun. Like, we were playing, like, shuffleboard. Like, bar shuffleboard. We had a lot of fun, but I wasn't really counting her drinks, which maybe I should have tried to, like, stick with where she was.
Brooke
Usually a good idea.
David
One of the last things that I remember is leaving in an Uber with.
Brooke
Her or without her.
David
Yeah, I am not 100% sure.
Craig
Oh, dang, bro.
Brooke
She could have fit in the car. I can't believe that Uber even let you in.
David
I'm pretty good at pulling off being blackout. Like, my friends will always say, like, what you really? And then. Yeah, it's a shock.
Alexis
It is a skill. It sounds like you have a high.
Brooke
Tolerance and you drink a lot, but.
Alexis
This is still not.
Jeff
So you made it home?
David
So I woke up in a random, gigantic house that I had never seen before.
Brooke
What?
David
Yeah, I was by myself. Didn't recognize anything.
Brooke
Like, wait, like a suburb house? Like, what type of house? Like, furniture and stuff? Or empty?
David
Like, it was furniture and stuff. Like, obviously somebody lived there, but it was really, really clean, and whoever lived there is probably pretty well off because it was well maintained and the furniture was really nice.
Brooke
Into somebody's house, Was it hers?
David
These are the questions that I want to know. I want to know the answers to these. Like, that's why I need to get in touch with her.
Brooke
Do you have any, like, photos on your photo gallery or anything that could give you any clues?
David
No, none. I literally. So I freaked out. I didn't know where I was, so I started gathering all my stuff, as much of it as I could. I think I left my vape there, but when I was running out the door, there was an older woman that was definitely not Melissa, yelling at me.
Brooke
What?
David
And I don't really know what she said, so I literally just, like, busted out of the door as fast as I could and ran down the street. And, like, I've texted Melissa a couple times to kind of like. I mean, yeah, I'd love to see her again. I'd love to take her out on another date if she'll have me, but really, I just want her to connect the dots.
Jeff
Yeah.
Brooke
Oh, no, I think we all.
David
And she still has not responded.
Jeff
I want to know these answers, too. I tell you to like, yeah, chill out and hit your vape. But obviously you can't do that.
Brooke
Don't do that.
David
I'm like, I. I'm crazy anxious. Cause I have no idea if I've made a fool of myself. Like, I don't know what I am.
Brooke
I can guarantee you made a fool out of yourself. I don't think that there's any question about that. It's just how you did it.
Jeff
Yeah, I mean, this is like a regular Tuesday night for Alexis.
Brooke
I go this hard on Thursdays, actually.
Bowen Yang
Excuse me.
Brooke
Thursday's the weekend. I mean, to be fair. Exactly. I keep it cozy.
Jeff
We're gonna try and get to the bottom of it. We're gonna call Melissa and try and get you your second date update right after this.
David
Thank you.
Jeff
All right, hold on.
Brooke
Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Second date update.
Jeff
If you're just joining us for the date, we're talking to probably the biggest partier we've ever had on the show, at least since Roofer. If you've never heard of Roofer, he's the type of guy who likes to pregame a funeral. But David, who's on the phone today, might actually have him beat.
Brooke
Not with nicknames, though. We need to get David a better name.
Jeff
We'll come up with one for him. But he did admit that he partied a little bit too hard the night of his date with Melissa. Doesn't remember everything. The weirdest part, though, was waking up the next day in some random nice house in the suburbs where some old lady was trying to, like, talk to him or yell at him before he ran out of. Ran out and got out of there.
Brooke
He doesn't know whose house it was. He doesn't know how he got there. He doesn't even know if his date was in the Uber, for goodness sakes.
Jeff
Yeah, and the worst part is he's been trying to figure out what's gone on, and Melissa won't respond to any of his text texts, which is why he's turned to us for help here.
David
So I realized I talking to you earlier. I didn't make a mistake. I just realized that Melissa texted me late last night.
Craig
Oh, what?
David
My heart absolutely dropped out of my shoes because she just texted me, you need to pay for what you did.
Jeff
Oh, no. Was there, like, a sexy emoji after it, maybe? Or was it, like an angry one?
David
There was a. There was a period at the end.
Brooke
Oh, this could have been a puke in the Uber situation.
Jeff
Alexa speaks from experience on that one.
Brooke
He wouldn't Known with his clothes the next morning.
Jeff
Now, maybe he would have smelled.
David
My clothes did not smell great, so anything's possible.
Brooke
Oh, okay. I was gonna say get your credit card ready for the end of this call.
Jeff
I mean, are you. Are you interested in going out with Melissa really, or do we just want the answers?
David
I would love to go out with her again. I mean, I think that's why I got so drunk, is because I was so nervous.
Brooke
Did you hear what the last thing Melissa texted?
Alexis
I wouldn't plan on the date.
Jeff
Yeah, we'll try and nudge her in that direction, but for now, it's just going to be trying to fill in the blanks for you. We're going to call. Here we go.
Bowen Yang
Hello?
Jeff
Hey, we're looking for Melissa.
Melissa
This is Melissa.
Juliet
Who is this?
Brooke
Hi, Melissa.
Jeff
Hey. Sound like you're in a good mood today. That's nice.
Juliet
There are a lot.
Jeff
Of. We're a radio show called Brooke and Jeffrey in the Morning.
Melissa
Oh, I know that show.
Alexis
You do you.
Brooke
Thanks. Thanks for listening.
Jeff
We made it. Melissa knows us.
Melissa
See, that's weird. Hey, what's up, guys?
Jeff
What's up? We're weird.
Alexis
Hey, we're doing a really bad phone tap on you right now.
Bowen Yang
We've done.
Alexis
I'm just kidding.
Jeff
No, we're doing a second date update because apparently, rumor has it you went out with a guy the other night named David. David.
Juliet
Oh, God.
Brooke
Oh, my God. You have to dish because I just know that there is a big story behind whatever went down on your date night.
Jeff
Background for you is that we've heard some bits and pieces of the night, at least the parts that David remembers, but we're hoping to get some more.
Melissa
Parts that he remembers.
Jeff
Yeah, it's. It's a little hazy for him, but we heard that you did text him, I think last night he said yeah, saying that he needed to pay for everything.
Brooke
For what he did.
Jeff
For what he did.
Brooke
But. But that was so vague. He actually has no idea what you're even referring to.
Alexis
He was on Team Blackout, but he.
Jeff
Remembers having a good time with you. Yeah.
Melissa
I don't think that he does remember having a good time with me because so basically, like, we had drinks and then.
Jeff
Yeah. So let me tell you what he told us. Us. Is that he did drink a little bit more than he wanted to because again, he was having such a nice time and he was nervous and.
Brooke
Thanks.
Jeff
You're amazing. But the last thing that he remembers is being in an Uber to he doesn't know where and then waking up in Some random house. Can you help us figure out where he went? Yeah. Or just any. Or even if you know. I don't know if you know anything. Yeah.
Brooke
Were you in the Uber?
Melissa
I was in the Uber, yeah. He didn't even know if I was in the Uber. Are you serious?
Brooke
No, he wasn't sure.
Alexis
Oh, my gosh. Just tell us the story if you can.
Brooke
Was he a mess?
Melissa
Fine. Okay, so he seemed like he was drinking too much and I was like, okay, I think it's really time to go. But he could not even tell me his address. He'd be like, yeah, let's go.
Jeff
Oh, no. Is that a line that you've used before, Jose? Like, I don't know where I live. You better take me back to your place.
Alexis
I live where you live.
Brooke
That's so not cute. Oh, so now you're just babysitting this guy and you can't even get him home?
Jeff
So whose house was it? Was that your house?
Melissa
I wasn't gonna bring him back to my apartment with this like, dude on a first date who's obviously like, way too drunk.
Brooke
Yeah, smart move.
Melissa
So my parents kind of lived near the bar.
Alexis
Oh, my gosh.
Melissa
Yeah, it was like 1am I called my parents, who were, needless to say, not happy.
Alexis
I'm sure.
Melissa
And my mom has like these figurines and he walked in and like, my mom went to grab some water and he like started playing with the figurines and like, he broke two of them.
Alexis
Oh, my God.
Melissa
And he was gonna be like, like thick. So he like asked where the bathroom was and I like, brought him to the bathroom and then he like slipped on a vase and like broke that too.
Alexis
He was one of those, like, stumbling.
Jeff
Yeah.
Melissa
My mom is like, I do not want this person ever in my house again.
Jeff
Oh, no. So going back to your text that you sent him where you said he needs to pay for everything that he did. I'm assuming that you're referring to all the things he broke in your mom's house.
Brooke
House.
Melissa
Yeah. Oh, so it's like you broke all this stuff and like, I didn't know. He had no idea it was my parents house. I thought he knew that the whole time.
Jeff
He's. He's learning a lot of stuff. The more that you're talking because he's actually listening to this whole thing on the phone.
Melissa
Wait, now?
Jeff
Yeah. Remember how the second dates work? They're listening on the other line.
Melissa
Oh, I didn't know it was like always automatically live.
Bowen Yang
Yeah.
Craig
Yeah.
Jeff
David wants to talk to You.
David
So let me start my three part apology by first saying.
Brooke
Are you so shocked that it was her parents house?
David
I'm so shocked that she was with me literally the whole time seeing it, because I was really in. I'm really into you, Melissa. I think that you're very attractive. I thought we had a great time.
Jeff
Well, you're already trying to. It sounds like you're already trying to save it, huh? You're trying to get through.
David
I would like to. I mean, this is the first time that I've woken up in a date's parents house.
Brooke
That is so specific.
Jeff
You can't lose that, Melissa.
Juliet
Oh, Melissa.
Melissa
I'll send you an itemized list of all the things that were broken and maybe then we can take it from there.
Jeff
Oh, that sounds like an invitation.
David
I can come over and apologize to your mom like I appreciate everything she did.
Jeff
Your mom doesn't want to hear from David?
Melissa
Nope.
David
I'd go over and give her some flowers, but I don't even remember what part of the city she lives in.
Jeff
That's a sweet gesture.
Brooke
You may want to check.
Jeff
Did I puke in a bathroom in there? No, not this house. No, the next house.
Brooke
I'd probably check in on how much money you owe first, David, to see if you have any funds left over.
David
Okay.
Jeff
We're dealing with a lot of like debt collecting and finance stuff. Let's get back to like the love aspect of this, which I'm sure it still must exist somewhere.
Brooke
Really.
Jeff
Melissa, is there a chance that you could look past the mistakes that he made on your first date?
Alexis
He was wasted.
Melissa
It's just basically like if you pay my mom back, then you have integrity and you're a cool person enough for doing that that then I would consider getting to know you more. But if not, it's going to be.
David
An incredible story to tell our kids.
Jeff
Before you go down that path, we would like to offer to send you out on a second date that we will pay for.
David
Yeah, I'm gonna. I'm gonna need that after my debt.
Jeff
Yeah, contingent on you paying the mom back first. So it's up to Melissa.
Melissa
I would go out with you if you make it right with my mom.
Juliet
Okay.
Brooke
So maybe you guys could exchange venmos, make it real. Hot.
David
Deal.
Melissa
Yeah, I'll text you my venmo after this call.
Jeff
So it sounds like true love is blossoming before our very eyes.
Alexis
I don't know about that.
Jeff
I don't.
David
So just out of curiosity, how much we think in here, how much do you think that, that's gonna be, I.
Melissa
Don'T know, like, I don't know, two or three grand probably.
Alexis
Oh, I told you those figurines, man, they're probably antiques.
Jeff
That's an expensive second date that David's gonna be paying for here.
David
We're gonna have to take it out of our wedding.
Melissa
That's the spirit.
Brooke
Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.

We have the potential here for an epic update. Update. If they really do go out and see each other again, I. I'm sorry.
Alexis
I think she's just being nice until.
Brooke
Who cares and then never talks. I don't think so. If a dude is willing to pay two to three grand to see me again, I will date him. Do you know what I mean?
Alexis
Because you're gold digger.
Brooke
No, because that's amazing that you're willing to do that like most guys in his position. Right now would have just hung up the phone when they heard that amount of money and never wanted to have contact with her again. Again.
Jeff
Yeah. Text in 78592 if you want producer boy to pursue this in three months to try and find out what happened. Did he pay her back? Did they see each other again?

Will he remember any of it?
Alexis
What if he does the same on the second date?
Brooke
Then we do need to have an intervention.
Jeff
I am proud of everybody here though in the room for being able to get a second date from that. Like I thought for sure there was no chance.
Brooke
I don't think it was us. I think that was him. I think he handled it so well.
Jeff
And credit to her for tricking him into paying her mom back.
Alexis
That's what I'm saying.
Brooke
Saying, is it a trick?
Jeff
I'm impressed by everybody today. Right?
Brooke
There we go listeners.

Yeah.

Episode: "Car Talk + I Woke Up Where?" (Feb 7, 2026)
Podcast: Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update
This special "double-header" classic episode features two signature Second Date Updates from Brooke and Jeffrey in the Morning. In each segment, the team attempts to reconnect singles after a first date that unexpectedly fizzled, unpacking the hilarious, awkward, and sometimes shocking real reasons for the ghosting. High on entertainment (and low on second dates), these updates spotlight two particularly memorable stories:
Both segments blend the hosts’ signature playful banter, honest awkwardness, and genuine empathy as they investigate, call the other person, and—sometimes—make things even weirder.
1. Is the Coffee Date Underwhelming?
2. Meet Craig: Ambition Overload
3. Chemistry — or Business Transaction?
4. Red Flag or Frugality? The Twist
5. Why Juliet Ghosted

7. Uncomfortable Close
1. Meet David: The Blackout Partier

The show’s trademark humor, snark, and light sarcasm shine throughout, with Brooke and Jeffrey constantly riffing on the contestants, teasing each other, and balancing real-life empathy with rapid-fire jokes. Both stories fuse genuine secondhand embarrassment with sharp one-liners and moments of surprising candor.
