So it's just a little bit extra long episode on Saturday. You can listen to it while being productive doing nothing. We don't really know what you guys are up to when you're hearing this. Falling asleep. That seems to be the number one use of this podcast. It really is. Yeah. So I do have a comment from M. Brock.
Jeffrey
Yeah.
Brooke
Who said listening while sitting at the hospital doing my three A three hour glucose test. Glucose test for gestational diabetes on a Saturday morning. Thanks for being here with me. Dude, that liquid you have to drink. I am so sorry. Oh, it's kind of like.
Jeffrey
Oh, there's a liquid.
Brooke
Yeah, it's like melted popsicles, but thicker and sweeter. Oh, wow. Okay. I'm tasting it right now at the hospital with this. It's not great, but you know, stay with it. And hey, good luck on the pregnancy. That's so exciting. Thanks for being with us. Your back to back classics start right now.
Jeffrey
It can be hard to recap an entire first date in just a sentence or two.
Brooke
Wow.
Jeffrey
Yeah. But today we spoke with a listener whose whole night could be summed up by the little drawing he attempted to make on a cocktail napkin. Aw, that's kinda cute. Well, it would be. But the drawing did not go the way he planned.
Brooke
Oh, dang.
Jeffrey
And neither did the rest of his night.
Brooke
Oh, goodness.
Jeffrey
You're going to understand why when you hear what he was attempting to doodle for her in a brand new second date update. Coming up right after this, Brooke and.
Brooke
Jeffrey in the morning Second date update.
Jeffrey
I feel good that we're like an adoptive home for lonely single men and women until they eventually find their permanent homes.
Brooke
That's true.
Jeffrey
And leave the nest.
Brooke
We just foster them.
Jeffrey
Yeah, we're like a picture. And the loveless stray that we're bringing in today, his name is Luke again for a second time because Luke has actually been on the show before.
Brooke
We've had a lot of return people lately.
Jeffrey
Yeah, that's what I'm saying. That's why we're a safe place straight.
Brooke
Just always come back.
Jeffrey
And like a pigeon, you just keep coming around. Last time Luke was on, he was irritating a young woman by posting a photo of them together onto his Instagram, but didn't ask her permission to post at first.
Brooke
It is the one where she didn't like her look. Because he didn't use a filter.
Jeffrey
Exactly. Right. So like I said, lessons have been learned. Luke, do you know better now? Pictures are a. No, no. Only post videos of them without all of.
Brooke
It's fine if you use the right filter. Don't you remember that whole segment? He's not with her now, so he's got to delete the photo. Yes, that's true. Or you leave it up to me.
Jeffrey
Luke, you're in a better place though now. Leave it up.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Yeah, I am. I am better now. I, I, I didn't think it was that big of a deal, but I am not going to make that mistake ever.
Jeffrey
Okay, that's good. How his guys get in trouble.
Brooke
I love when you say you're better, but you're back with us.
Jeffrey
Well, it's good cuz apparently there's a that we're trying to track down for you. Tell us about her.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
So her name is Lisa. I met her on Tinder and lately I've been trying a new strategy.
Jeffrey
Okay.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
I try and let the person know who I am. I mean, because if they know who I am, then it'll be a lot harder to ghost me.
Brooke
At least I would think be harder to ghost you.
Jeffrey
Wait, hold on. What do you mean, know who I am? What?
Brooke
He just means as a person.
Jeffrey
Oh, okay. I'm sorry. That's also a good point.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
I mean, cause you know how like first dating are. They want to know, like, what's your job? What do you do for a living?
Jeffrey
You're trying to not keep it so surface. You're diving a little bit deeper early on into the date.
Brooke
The essence of who you are as a person.
Jeffrey
Yeah. So how did you accomplish that with Lisa?
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Well, one of the things that I like anybody that I'm dating to know is that, I mean, I used to be in a band.
Jeffrey
Cool. That's a cool thing.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Yeah, I mean, I try and do like a funny lead up into the date and give them hints about my musical talents.
Brooke
Give them hints?
Jeffrey
You don't just tell them straight out that I, I was in a band. Can we get a loaf of bread? Sorry about that. Wow, you're so skilled. Were you in a band?
Brooke
Why wouldn't you just not tell her?
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Yeah, I mean, that's not really fun. I mean, there's no mystery behind it.
Jeffrey
Okay.
Brooke
So annoying though when someone's dropping hints for you to obviously ask them, you.
Jeffrey
Know, I don't know, how do you drop a hint? What's your Tactic.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Okay, so what I did at dinner when I was with her was that I drew a picture of a microphone on a napkin.
Jeffrey
Okay, like you were doodling or you.
Brooke
Were like, let me draw a picture while she's talking to you.
Jeffrey
Oh, yeah, that could be rude.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
It wasn't like I was completely ignoring her. I mean, you know, I can walk and chew gum at the same time.
Brooke
Okay, did she know it was a microphone? Did she pick up on your hint?
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Um, she didn't really say anything. She just kind of gave me a look.
Brooke
I mean, the shape of that is not good.
Jeffrey
I was thinking that, bruh.
Brooke
Yeah, it's a shape that can be mistaken.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Yeah, I tried to put, like, dots on the top of it to show it was a microphone.
Jeffrey
Okay, she's not getting this.
Brooke
You never clarified.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
No, I didn't want to blow the surprise, honestly.
Jeffrey
Okay, did you still want her to guess? It's a night long game of charades.
Brooke
And then she doesn't know she's playing Pictionary, Jeff.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Pictionary.
Brooke
You're right.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
So then later on I did. I played something for her on the jukebox. A little Macklemore. I'm going to pop some tags.
Jeffrey
Hey, that's a fun song.
Brooke
I don't want to hear that song. Yeah, how is that a hint that you're in a band?
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Well, I thought it would be, but I. I just kept telling her, do you like this? Do you like that?
Brooke
Oh, man.
Jeffrey
Okay, all right, so maybe she thinks you're just kind of random because your attempts at giving your hands were bad.
Brooke
You're not even currently in the band.
Jeffrey
Right, well, that's right. This is an old story, but it's the essence of who he is from his youth. Don't listen to them, Luke. What? What happened next?
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Okay, well, we finished our drinks and I was like, I have to take you somewhere for dinner. Do you trust me?
Brooke
Oh, God. Handle that drawing. I'm gonna guess she said no.
Jeffrey
What did she say?
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
She said no. Yeah, she got in my car. Anyway.
Brooke
Okay, someone needs to teach her. That's not. That does sound like an Alexis move where you just wanna.
Jeffrey
Yeah, okay, she's being playful. Where'd you go for dinner?
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
I drove it to my place and, you know, I had dinner there, waiting. I also had my karaoke set up and.
Jeffrey
Oh, this is where she's gonna find. Oh, this is another hint.
Brooke
You're gonna karaoke, just the two of you. And you're up.
Jeffrey
Hey, that sounds fun. Brooke, leave him alone.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
So I wound up singing The Macklemore song to her while she ate.
Jeffrey
Why are we even calling her? Yeah, bro, this is a train wreck.
Brooke
Oh, buddy.
Jeffrey
Okay.
Brooke
I mean, maybe she liked it. Okay, okay. Teasing you a lot, but maybe she liked it.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
She did clap after the song.
Brooke
Oh, that is good. She did like it. Did she find out you were in a band?
Jeffrey
Play more Macklemore.
Brooke
Oh, yeah. Good question.
Jeffrey
Did that come up? Oh, yeah.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
No. After all that, when I was driving her home, I. I did try one more hint. And so I did try and play another surprise song, which was Macklemore again.
Brooke
Wait, was it Thrift Shop again or a different song?
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
I mean, I really like Thrift Shops.
Brooke
It was not. Hey, you know what, though? If this works out, that's your song as a couple.
Jeffrey
That's it. That's the wedding song. That's everything. Okay. Did you end with a hug? A kiss? Anything like that?
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
A hug.
Brooke
Did she mention anything about seeing you again or.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
We did not. That's why I'm curious.
Brooke
You're curious.
Jeffrey
Okay. Have you hit her up at all? I think we all are. So, Luke, you've been on with us before. You know how this works. We're gonna call her and ask why she doesn't appreciate a brave, courageous man who's willing to just be himself and give her a live musical performance during dinner.
Brooke
I mean, we could talk to her, or we could just play Macklemore for her for four minutes and see what her response.
Jeffrey
I do have a thought about what music to bump in with when we come back. I don't want to spoil which one it's gonna be, though. I mean, nobody guessed.
Brooke
I'm not guessing.
Jeffrey
Okay, we're gonna come back and do it with your second date update right after we pop some tags.
Brooke
I already hated that stuff. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning, second date update.
Jeffrey
I pulled Thrift Shop, the knockoff karaoke version, off the Internet for this, because I picture this is what Luke sang to his date Lisa while she ate dinner at his place.
Brooke
I can't believe we haven't asked for a sample from Luke.
Jeffrey
Yeah.
Brooke
Of his skill.
Jeffrey
Well, I think that's. That's reserved for his romantic serenades. Got it. I don't want to confuse that. That all really happened. But, Luke, we never asked you. Did you dance for her while you sang?
Brooke
Oh, I'm sure Luke has choreography. Don't you, Luke?
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
I stepped, like, from left to right, side to side.
Jeffrey
Wow. Okay, now, the whole point of doing all of this, this fun, mystery, creative date that you set up was to Let Lisa know that you used to be in a band so that she could get to know the real you. You forgot to actually tell her that. So my forget and then never came up. So that. My question now is, if we do get Lisa on the line, do you want us to tell her that information or should we save it for you?
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
No, I think I still want to tell her. I think that was the whole point. I thought we should just follow through.
Brooke
Okay, I'm still confused how the knowledge of you previously being in a band really opens up who you are. Yeah, it just sounds like maybe you think that that's what chicks like.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Well, don't. They do.
Jeffrey
It is true. I mean, Alexis, a guy who's formerly in a band. Come on.
Brooke
Imagine performing in his garage for his mom.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Wow, you're not far off.
Jeffrey
Everything starts somewhere, right?
Brooke
All right, because he's again.
Jeffrey
Okay, well if Lisa says no, then Alexis is on deck. But let's call Lisa first. Here we go.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Hello?
Jeffrey
Hey, is this Lisa?
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Yeah.
Jeffrey
Hey Lisa. We're a radio show. We're called Brooke and Jeffrey in the Morning. Sorry to interrupt your day.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Okay, what's this about?
Brooke
Great question.
Jeffrey
Yeah, we. It's about a thing that we do called a second date update.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Uh huh.
Jeffrey
And we also play music.
Brooke
Oh, no, big lovers of music.
Jeffrey
We take requests, if you have any, like to do a shout out on the radio right now.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Ah, no, no.
Jeffrey
Oh, okay. We call you for shout outs. Yeah, that's fine. But back to the second date update thing that we do. Not sure if you're familiar, but you went out with one of our listeners recently. A friend of the show. Actually one of our more talented friends named Luke.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Okay, all right.
Brooke
Sounds like it was a pretty memorable night with Luke.
Jeffrey
Right.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Well, what did he tell you about the date?
Jeffrey
It was.
Brooke
I mean, full of surprises.
Jeffrey
Lots of surprises, Lots of fun. There was drinks, you went back to his place, he had dinner ready for you and then even performed a song live, which we all thought most guys would never go through with all of that for just a first date. We were pretty impressed. We're wondering.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
So he didn't tell you anything else?
Jeffrey
I mean, well, it felt like a lot.
Brooke
He did tell us that, like going back to his place was a surprise. Yeah, I don't know how that felt to you.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Yeah, normally. Normally I would not.
Brooke
Right, right.
Jeffrey
But you did go back with him and got in his car. Because I think you probably got the same vibe that we got speaking to him, that he's a good dude and he sounds like, he went through a lot of trouble to make this date really fun and different.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Well, truth be told, I was very hungry.
Brooke
Oh, you're hungry? Well, you know, I get it. Sometimes I make poor decisions when I'm hungry.
Jeffrey
Right.
Brooke
You're like, ah, safety.
Jeffrey
But he had food ready for you. That must be nice.
Brooke
Yeah. Was it a good dinner that he made?
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
His parents were there.
Jeffrey
Oh, no, wait, at his place. That's why dinner was ready.
Brooke
He didn't come. I'm gonna guess it's not his place, Jeff.
Jeffrey
Oh, well, okay, so wait, he took.
Brooke
You back to his parents house? Is that what you're saying?
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
I'm guessing that was his parents house. Here's the thing. I was eating. His parents were not eating.
Jeffrey
Weird.
Brooke
You're sitting at the table with all of them.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
No, it was set up like a kid had set it up to perform in front of his parents like a living room gospel.
Brooke
That's what I was imagining, but it was.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Yeah.
Brooke
How did you know?
Jeffrey
There.
Brooke
Wow.
Jeffrey
Okay.
Brooke
He left that detail out. We did not get any information about his mom and dad.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Yeah, big, big, important. Very important.
Jeffrey
Okay, well, personally, I would have felt more safe having his parents there. They're like the chaperones of your day to make sure everything goes well. Yeah. That way if he wants a drink too, right? Yeah. Someone's got to drive you back.
Brooke
It's a good point.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
I did not feel that way. I felt like it was super weird.
Jeffrey
Well, I get it. For some people, I understand parents on a date, that's a red flag. For others it's not. Well, some people it's not a big deal. And that might be where Luke stands. And we should probably ask him about it because he is on the other line right now waiting to talk to you. Lisa.
Brooke
She says. Shocking, right?
Jeffrey
Lukey there?
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Yeah. Hey, Lisa. Hi. For the record, it is my place. It's just that because we were already out, I asked my parents to make dinner and have it ready.
Brooke
No.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
How else was I gonna make sure that everything was ready for you?
Brooke
Okay, if you live with your parents, that's okay. You don't have to lie.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
I didn't lie. They have a key to my place and they come over and make dinner all the time.
Brooke
Oh, then they sat and hung out while you performed.
Jeffrey
Why didn't you kick them out? No, this isn't a bad thing, Lisa. This is a guy who has a very good relationship with his mom and dad.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
No.
Jeffrey
Well, I'm sorry. Okay, tell me this. Did you or did you not clap after his performance.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
His parents clapped louder.
Brooke
His parents slept well as they start.
Jeffrey
See everyone.
Brooke
Yeah. Why did you not tell us all of this part?
Jeffrey
It would have helped us if we had known your parents were there.
Brooke
Yeah, man.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Well, I kind of set it up like a performance restaurant kind of thing. They were just there to help.
Brooke
Okay. You're at your home with your parents playing restaurant.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Yeah.
Jeffrey
Yeah. At least they didn't play doctor. Yeah. He's got a fun, youthful spirit to him. Broken. That can't be broken.
Brooke
I think the thing is, you are a really nice guy. I think maybe you just need to be more upfront with people.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Okay, Lisa, did you not like Macklemore? Luke, Macklemore is not the issue. The whole date was the issue. That was weird. I think anybody would think that that whole situation was weird. When I was singing, did I have the music up a little bit too loud? You know, because I wanted it, like, you know, really up high for energy.
Jeffrey
Okay, good question.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Oh, my gosh. You're not listening to what I'm saying at all. It wasn't that.
Brooke
He's like.
Jeffrey
So you might need to be more specific.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Oh, my parents. Dinner was pretty bad. My mom makes some amazing food.
Jeffrey
Okay, maybe it's just an off night for the cooking.
Brooke
The casserole didn't hit like it was supposed to.
Jeffrey
We could tell her to try again.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Luke, I think that you need to learn what self awareness is.
Jeffrey
That's a good thing. I don't know that Macklemore song, so maybe he should look it up. I'm gonna be somewh.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
I'm gonna pop some tag. $20.
Brooke
Hey.
Jeffrey
Listen to that voice.
Brooke
So enthusiastic. Okay, is that the only song he knows.
Jeffrey
That part.
Brooke
Yeah. Yeah.
Jeffrey
Bottom line, Lisa, we all agree Luke's a good guy. His tactics are a little unconventional, but that's just what makes him so unique and special. Intentions are pure. And clearly his parents would approve of going out with you again. We all approve of it. It's just up to you. We would pay for another date if you say yes.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Listen, you can be a nice guy and still be a weirdo. And enough so that. No, I do not want to go out again.
Brooke
Oh, man.
Jeffrey
Not a weirdo and a nutso. No, that was a little too harsh. Yeah.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
What if I play a different Macklemore song?
Jeffrey
I'm sure that there's another lady who appreciates Macklemore and your musical talents. Yeah. And you'll meet her soon. Okay. Text word's gonna fill up, brother.
Brooke
Oh, yeah, Already just text flooding in.
Jeffrey
Read One. Brooke?
Brooke
Yeah.
Jeffrey
There's so many. Yeah.
Brooke
I just can't choose. It's.
Jeffrey
It keeps refreshing. Yeah. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.

Brooke
Oh, really?
Jeffrey
No, he was. I'm sorry. Luke was a good guy who puts effort into his dates, Wants ladies to get to know the real him.
Brooke
Yeah, but Jeff, he doesn't like. All he wants ladies to know is that he was used to being a band. Like he wasn't honest about anything about his life.
Jeffrey
That's who he is.
Brooke
Dishonest band.
Jeffrey
Well, I don't hate on him for his truth. That's so true. I don't care how long I have to wait by the text board for a woman to text in that actually is willing to appreciate him. But how hard can this be? He checks all of the boxes. He's close with his parents. He does napkin art. He used to be in a band.
Brooke
Nobody has those boxes.
Jeffrey
He likes rap music by white guys. Yeah, somebody out there has to.
Brooke
Are we calling that rap music?
Jeffrey
Something rap adjacent. Don't you speak of Macklemore that way. Come on, ladies. Go out with Luke. Give him a chance to show him the real you or the real him. Yeah, he'll show you something that would sing for you.
Brooke
That was impassioned.
Jeffrey
Anyway, we do want to help. If you have somebody who's not calling you back, email the show. We can call them for you and get you a second date update. Go check out all of ours wherever you get your podcast at brookeandjeffrey.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.
Jeffrey
Morning. When you think of the world's hardest working, most thankless jobs, you might think sanitation workers, 911 dispatchers for sure. Alexis's hairstylist. Oh, my gosh, how selfless.
Brooke
She cries to me all the time after she sees Alexis.
Jeffrey
But can we add airline public relations to that list? Oh, my God. It seems like every week there's a new horror story that these poor people are having to spin. Like. No, we promise. Our flight crew cares deeply about the passengers. They only punch that one in the throat out of concern for their safety.
Brooke
Yes, sure.
Jeffrey
And just when you thought nothing good happened on airplanes this year, one of our listeners came through.
Brooke
Oh, right.
Jeffrey
And his story about how he met a woman on his flight might inspire everybody listening. That love really can happen when you least expect it.
Brooke
Oh, that's so cute.
Jeffrey
No throat punches whatsoever. It's so sweet. It's coming up in your second date update. Next.
Brooke
Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning second date update.
Jeffrey
I always thought meeting someone on an airplane was so 2014.
Brooke
Oh, my God. You literally just rolled your eyes. Why did you.
Jeffrey
10 years ago, head shaking back and forth. But we've actually had a couple people reach out saying that it's happened to them recently.
Brooke
Yeah, I always think it's amazing.
Jeffrey
Now, one guy we couldn't use cause he was like, hey, you want my peanuts? And turns out he wasn't talking about his in flight snack. That was something else.
Brooke
Pretzels. Now, Jeff.
Jeffrey
So while that situation is in court, we're gonna try a different one with a new guy named Brad. Okay, let's talk to him. Brad, you didn't leave any of your snack mix on her in the middle of the flight, did you?
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
I hope not. No, I don't think so. Guys.
Brooke
Okay, let's be more sure of ourselves. Brad.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Okay.
Brooke
Okay.
Jeffrey
I think you know Brad. Let's start from the very beginning. Brad, who is this woman that you met?
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
So her name is Tiffany. She's this awesome girl. And look, I'll be honest with you guys. I just recently got out of a relationship, so I wasn't really even looking for anything.
Brooke
They say that's what it always happens, right?
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Yeah, I wasn't looking for anything. You know, I'm just sitting down on my flight, getting ready to go back home to see the family and everything. And this hot girl walks on the plane. And you guys know when you see somebody attractive walking their plane, you're always like, oh, please sit next to me, sit next to me. If there's an empty seat.
Jeffrey
Oh. When they're walking down the aisle to board the plane. I know.
Brooke
Me too. Stay away.
Jeffrey
Open mouth, sleeping for three hours.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
I hope you're not next to me. Yeah, the attractive one never sits next to me. Except for this one time.
Jeffrey
All right.
Brooke
Oh, man. When she was, like, putting her stuff in the overhead, were you getting nervous?
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
A little bit. And then also, what got me a little bit more nervous was when she did sit down. Like, I had the aisle seat, she had the window seat. So now I'm holding my breath that nobody's coming over to sit in the middle.
Brooke
Yeah. Or you just ask. Really chivalrous. You're like, you know what? You have the aisle. I'll take this middle one and just sacrifice to sit next to her.
Jeffrey
People would be so happy. Like, oh, my gosh, of course. Take the middle. Yeah. I never thought of that.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
That was my plan the whole time. Every time somebody walked in, I was like, okay, what excuse can I give them to sit in the aisle?
Jeffrey
And I put it, you don't need one.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
That's amazing.
Jeffrey
So did somebody come?
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
No, that's the best part. So the doors closed. Nobody came right up the seat, right between us.
Brooke
Oh, man.
Jeffrey
Take off for love.
Brooke
I mean, how did you strike up a conversation? Was it pretty immediate?
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Yeah, it was just, you know, I helped her. I tried to help her with her bags, and then I asked her. I was like, look, if you want the aisle seat, I can switch. You know, just anything. Anything I can say just to start the conversation.
Jeffrey
Wow.
Brooke
Okay.
Jeffrey
Okay. How did the flight go?
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
It went great. We were talking. She had, like, this cute little. Like, when I made her laugh, like, hard, she would uncontrollably snort for a second, and of course she'd apologize.
Jeffrey
That's cute. Aw.
Brooke
When somebody else snorts, when they laugh, it's cute. I see.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
I'm definitely feeling this girl. I'm thinking she's feeling me. Like, the vibes are great. The conversation's going great. And look, it was a. You know, she's going back to see her family, going back to mine. But it was a long slate. We were both kind of tired, what have you. And conversation kind of died down. I ended up watching the show on my phone and then knocked out and fell asleep for the rest of the flight.
Brooke
I think that's okay, though.
Jeffrey
That happens. Maybe you weren't too clingy.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
So I don't know. I mean, I'm hoping I didn't drool. I'm hoping I didn't fart in my sleep.
Jeffrey
You're an ugly sleeper. Possibly.
Brooke
Is that a common thing for, I.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Don'T know, like at home? I don't think so. But I mean, you know, you never know when you're sleeping on a plane and you have to like sit in uncomfortable positions and you don't know.
Brooke
Yeah.
Jeffrey
Yeah. So at what point during this flight did you get her number?
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Before I fell asleep. So before I fell asleep I got her number.
Brooke
She gave it to you?
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
We were kind of making plans. Like there was a new restaurant back home and we like, we were going to try it out and again, everything seemed super enthusiastic. We seem to be feeling each other. I knocked out on the plane, which I'm kicking myself. I should have just. Just kept talking to her. Figure something out instead of watching a show and falling asleep.
Jeffrey
I don't know. Playing sleep is so clutch. Yeah.
Brooke
I think if you didn't you wake up at some point, see her again.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
I slept all the way until we landed, so I had like 10 extra minutes. So, like, nice to meet you. You know, I'll see you later. I'll give you a call. What have you and kind of just went our separate ways.
Brooke
Okay.
Jeffrey
Alexis hearing the entire day. What are you thinking? Do you think something happened when he was sleeping? Oh, I don't know.
Brooke
It could have been an ugly sleeper.
Jeffrey
Would that be a turn off to.
Brooke
You if your mouth's open and you're like making noises on the play? I mean, it is kind of a look into the future of your relationship with somebody snoring next to you the whole play.
Jeffrey
Sadly, still not a deal breaker for me. Not for you.
Brooke
You're alive. So funny.
Jeffrey
So what's going on with you guys now?
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Now I'm texting and she is responding, but it's not like with the same enthusiasm as original.
Brooke
Okay.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
I'm trying to hammer down this date and it's like for her, something keeps coming up or she doesn't quite respond in time and it's like, take a breath, buddy.
Jeffrey
You sound like you're really, really wound up in there. Should just go back to sleep.
Brooke
He needs to lower the oxygen mask.
Jeffrey
Yeah. So how long has it been since this flight happened?
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
It's been about like a week and a half. I mean, not too long, but we should have seen each other by now.
Jeffrey
You're trying to keep the momentum that you had on that flight going before it fizzles out. It sounds like.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Exactly. Gotta strike while iron's hot.
Brooke
Okay, well, I think it's lukewarm right now, but we're gonna still strike.
Jeffrey
All right, let's. Let's get the hot water going or whatever you do.
Brooke
It's an iron.
Jeffrey
Okay, let's put it poke at the fire. Let's get smell.
Brooke
Sure.
Jeffrey
I don't know. I don't deal with irons, bro. Anyway, we're gonna come back, we're gonna try and get you your second date update with Tiffany right after this. Okay?
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Thanks, guys. Appreciate it.
Jeffrey
Hold on, man. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.
Brooke
Second date update.
Jeffrey
Two people meet on a flight, they exchange laughter, phone numbers, and then everything goes dark.
Brooke
Whoa, wait, what?
Jeffrey
I'm not talking about the first episode of Lost.
Brooke
Oh.
Jeffrey
I'm talking about Brad.
Brooke
Oh, hey, Brad.
Jeffrey
Who fell asleep on his flight after meeting Tiffany.
Brooke
Okay, yeah, they were hitting it off.
Jeffrey
Before his 3,000mile high snooze fest, but after he. He woke up, he just hasn't been able to keep that momentum going. Yeah. Now Alexis thinks it's cuz he's an ugly sleeper with a bad credit score.
Brooke
But I don't think she's safe. Okay, maybe she was bad Brad, but.
Jeffrey
The bottom line is he's willing to do whatever it takes in order to see her again in person. Even reach out to us for help. So good on Brad for going the extra mile.
Brooke
Like a mile. Like.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Oh, like.
Brooke
Yeah, got it.
Jeffrey
Got it. I didn't even think of that. Wow. More clever than I even realized.
Brooke
Are you our platinum member today? No, don't bring up members. I don't want to hear Jose talk about it.
Jeffrey
How we feeling?
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Anxious. I don't know. We're gonna, I guess, find out one way or another.
Jeffrey
As long as we're not sleepy before we head into this call, then I think we're gonna be golden. All right.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Hopefully. Yeah.
Jeffrey
Yeah.
Brooke
Can you imagine? He falls asleep in the middle of the call.
Jeffrey
Too bad. Look on us more than anything. But here. We're about to call. Are you ready to do this?
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Yes, sir.
Jeffrey
Here we go. I'm going to dial her number right now.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Hello?
Jeffrey
Hey, is this Tiffany?
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Yes.
Jeffrey
Hey, Tiffany. And this might be weird, but you're on the radio right now with Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.
Brooke
Hey, Tiffany. Hey. Welcome to the show.
Jeffrey
Sorry, that's weird.
Brooke
That's not weird.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Very strange, but okay.
Jeffrey
Oh, good. We are strange. We got over it pretty quick. So proud of you. We're. We're doing a segment on our show. It's also. It's also a weird segment. It's called Second Date Update where we try and help Our listeners.
Brooke
Don't laugh.
Jeffrey
Try to help. Our listeners go out on another date after they had a nice experience with someone, sometimes 3,000 miles, 300,000, 30,000 miles in there.
Brooke
I mean, they're not in space.
Jeffrey
Jeff, how high do you fly a plane at?
Brooke
You met somebody on a flight? Tiffany?
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Oh, my goodness.
Jeffrey
Yeah.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
What is happening?
Jeffrey
I don't know what's going on.
Brooke
It hasn't been pressurized.
Jeffrey
But look, we're calling on behalf of one of our listeners who's been trying to get a hold of you. His name is Brady.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Yeah, okay.
Jeffrey
Okay.
Brooke
Is that a good okay, Tiffany?
Jeffrey
Is it ever? Brooke?
Brooke
One time maybe.
Jeffrey
We're hoping for a positive answer. Well, we figured since, you know, you're not calling him back or you're being kind of slow with your responses, we just wanted to figure out what's going on because Brad is a little bit confused. He felt like you had a good connection on the plane.
Brooke
Yeah, he was hopeful that something would come of it.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
All right. Yes. Okay.
Brooke
So. Yes. You had a good connection with him too.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Yeah, I mean, to start with. Yeah, we had a really nice conversation, which I fly a lot and that doesn't often happen, so it was really nice to have somebody who was, you know, funny and animated and seemed interested and stuff. So that was. That was nice.
Jeffrey
Good. Sometimes when you meet someone on a plane, you have to act like you're enjoying their company and you're not. So it's good that you really did like his. His, you know, his attention.
Brooke
And can I ask, like, when you got to your seat and you saw him sitting there, were you like, ooh?
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
I mean, he's. Yeah, he's cute. I mean, like I said, I fly all the time, so I wasn't like, looking for anything like this or thinking about it, but.
Jeffrey
Yeah, you were just. Okay, so you have this, you know, cute guy on the plane that you admit you had a good connection with. That was very rare for you. What made everything change?
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
I mean, look, I just. He has obvious things happening that I just really. I don't like drama, and I don't really want to get involved with whatever is happening with him.
Jeffrey
What kind of drama? We didn't hear anything about that.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
I mean, do you really want to know what happened?
Brooke
We love dramas. Not really, Jeff. Yes, well, he just deprived his head of people. I mean, he does. Cuz he does not remember any drama from your guys's, like, meeting on the plane.
Jeffrey
Craig. Then he fell asleep and that was it.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Exactly. Yeah. He wouldn't. He wouldn't remember what. What was happening because he was. He was asleep during.
Brooke
Oh, wait.
Jeffrey
Oh, it was while he was.
Brooke
How could drama happen? That's. He was breathing so loud. I told you, Alexis.
Jeffrey
Loud, open mouth.
Brooke
Was he ugly sleeper or a sleepwalker?
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
No, no, no, he slept.
Jeffrey
Walked the whole plane. That'd be amazing.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
So he falls asleep. He'd been watching something on his phone. So his phone kind of drops, you know, like between us a little bit. And then I realized his phone is like just blowing up, just non stop.
Jeffrey
Like. Oh, like texts. He's getting texts or what is.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Okay, yeah, yeah, he's just getting tons of texts. And so I just sort of glanced at it like, just to sort of make sure it wasn't like some sort of a family emergency or something now that there's so much you can do when you're on a plane.
Brooke
But come on, you weren't worried about that. You were just curious. It's okay, you can be honest.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
I'm sure. I'm sure it was a little of both. So then I could see, obviously it's some girl who is just being very aggressive and texting like non stop. And it was, you know, all caps and there was. I mean, I don't know what was happening, but clearly there's some drama going on with some girl and that's not something I want to get involved with, so.
Brooke
Yeah, you don't even know. It could have been his sister. It could have been a cousin.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Like, I mean, I don't. I don't know for sure, but it is definitely. I mean, if you saw the text, you would have thought the same thing as me.
Brooke
Do you remember what any of them.
Jeffrey
Let's find out for sure right now, because you don't know this yet, Tiffany, but Brad is actually on the other line right now listening.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Oh my God.
Brooke
He's not dramatic at all.
Jeffrey
No, he wants to just jump in on this conversation. I'm guessing he's just sleeping. Brad, you there?
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Yeah, I'm here. Hi, Tiffany. How you doing?
Brooke
Very cool, calm and collected.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
So do you work out all your drama with your. With your other. Okay, I do not. I'm not a fan of drama either, but there were some loose ends I had to kind of tie up and it's done. Like I don't have to worry about it.
Brooke
There was drama.
Jeffrey
Hold on, wait, hold on. Brad, look, we always assume that everybody who emails into the show to ask for second dates is single.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Exactly.
Jeffrey
Are you not like maybe you're dating multiple women right now? And if You. Like, if you are, that's okay. But. But can you confirm that you're single?
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
I. I am 100 single, and by the time the plane landed, I was 100% single as well. So, wait, so, like, meeting somebody on a plane, you were, like, breaking up with somebody, like, for somebody that you had never even really met before? Is that what we're saying? Okay, I don't want to sound like a creeper. I'm not. I'm not. I didn't break up with her because of somebody that's not on the plane. I'm just. Look, her and. Her and I, we had issues. It wasn't gonna go anywhere anyway. Like, I was just trying to find, I guess, the motivation or.
Jeffrey
Okay, but wait, wait, wait, wait. Was she your ex when you boarded the plane, or was she your ex when you got off the plane? Yes.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Thank you. Emotionally? Yes.
Jeffrey
People say, oh, we've been emotionally broken up for a year.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
No, no. And he doesn't like. Like drama? Are you kidding?
Jeffrey
That is drama.
Brooke
And then you fell asleep in the middle of dumping her.
Jeffrey
Good night. He was tired from flirting so hard with Tiffany right before that. It takes a lot of energy out of you to break up with somebody.
Brooke
How long was this relationship?
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
It was six months. It wasn't a whole lot.
Brooke
Okay, long enough. That's on the line.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
That's enough to, like, form quite the attachment on her. I mean, I don't know this girl, but. But clearly on her side, it meant a lot, and that clearly hurt her. And it's. It's pretty cheap to, like, text somebody when they physically cannot call you back because you're on a plane. I would never trust somebody who did that.
Brooke
Wait, he didn't cheat? I mean, honestly, like, okay, pretty low that he would text her and just break up with her that way, but he didn't cheat. Like, he will dump you before he cheats on you. Yeah, sure. Things were clean.
Jeffrey
I mean, Brooke, you don't know 100 what they did on that plane, so let's not jump to conclusions.
Brooke
You fell asleep.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
I wasn't. See, I didn't cheat. I didn't have two women at. Time is. It's like a connecting flight. I went from one flight to the other.
Brooke
Boy, he just had a layover. This is a layover.
Jeffrey
Very tight connection.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Don't say layover.
Jeffrey
Well, bottom line, Tiffany, Brad is a romantic, and he saw something that he liked when he boarded on the plane, and he went for it. Yeah, and he's continuing to go for it by going through Us. That's why we're going to offer to send you guys out on another date.
Brooke
On a date?
Jeffrey
Your first date, I guess, technically. And we would pay for it.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Well, how lovely of you, but no thank you. I had nothing to do with you sleeping. And that will be the last time I see you sleeping. So thank you.
Jeffrey
Quick Brad, text her a picture of you closing your eyes.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Yeah, that'll show us.
Jeffrey
Gotcha.
Luke/Brad (guest speakers)
Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.

Good thing it was a long flight.
Brooke
I still can't.
Jeffrey
It was crazy. I mean, he may have been sleeping, but Brad was clearly also doing work before that. Ditching the old and upgrading to the new.
Brooke
I mean he didn't cheat or anything, but I gotta say, her instincts spot on.
Jeffrey
Yeah, she actually saw the tag. She didn't want to share his business, but she said no. Believe me, if you read it, you would have known.

Podcast: Brooke and Jeffrey
Episode Theme:
A double-header of “Second Date Update” classics, featuring two tales of first dates gone awkwardly off the rails: one centered on a guy’s not-so-subtle hints about his musical past (“Pop Some Tags”), the other about an in-flight spark derailed by unfinished business on the ground (“Love At First Flight”). Both episodes showcase Brooke and Jeffrey’s comedic chemistry as they unravel why things went wrong—and rarely right—when the second call comes.
This week’s extra-long episode serves up back-to-back “Second Date Update” segments, where the team tries to help listeners who got ghosted after a promising connection. As always, the goal is to get some honest answers—and maybe another date—while providing listeners with high entertainment and copious cringe.
Luke is back on the show, having previously gotten into trouble for posting a photo of a date without permission.
This time, Luke tries a new approach:
The 'Microphone’ Doodle:
Karaoke at Home:
During the call with Lisa, a key fact surfaces:
Luke had left out this detail. He insists: “For the record, it is my place… I asked my parents to make dinner and have it ready.” (16:20)
His parents clapped “louder” after his song than Lisa did (17:07).
Brad, recently single, notices an attractive woman (Tiffany) on a flight home.
“You know when you see somebody attractive walking the plane, you’re like ‘please sit next to me, please’... Except it never happens. Except for this one time.” – Brad (24:19)
Their seats are next to each other with an empty middle seat, which remains vacant. They hit it off:
Conversation is easy; Brad eventually falls asleep after getting her number and discussing future plans.
On the second call, Tiffany reveals:
Brad’s version:
Tiffany, put off by the drama and the mid-flight breakup, declines a second date:
| Timestamp | Speaker | Quote | |-----------|----------|-------| | 07:16 | Brooke | “The shape of that is not good.” (re: microphone drawing) | | 14:51 | Lisa | “His parents were there.” | | 17:43 | Lisa | “Luke, Macklemore is not the issue. The whole date was the issue. That was weird.” | | 19:14 | Lisa | “Listen, you can be a nice guy and still be a weirdo. And enough so that—no, I do not want to go out again.” | | 24:19 | Brad | “You know when you see somebody attractive walking the plane, you’re like ‘please sit next to me, please’… Except it never happens. Except for this one time.” | | 34:30 | Tiffany | “It was some girl who is just being very aggressive and texting non-stop… all caps.” | | 36:04 | Brad | “I am 100% single, and by the time the plane landed, I was 100% single as well.” | | 37:56 | Brad | “I didn’t have two women at a time—it’s like a connecting flight. I went from one to the other.” | | 38:27 | Tiffany | “That will be the last time I see you sleeping. So thank you.” |
