Segment 1: Right To Remain Sexy (03:51–21:01)

Introduction & Set Up (03:51–05:29)

• Premise: Exploring why Nick, who went on a dinner date with Becca, a female police officer, is being ghosted.
• Host Banter: The hosts joke about professions considered sexy, especially firefighters and cops.
  • Notable Quote:
    Jeffrey: "Like who’s not swiping right on a hot firefighter?" (04:45)
    Brooke: "Lady cops are sexy… it’s honestly just the power they have." (05:50)

The First Date Story (05:30–09:54)

• Nick met Becca on a dating app; her profile revealed her cop identity, leading Nick to make a "real cop or a stripper?" joke (she’d heard it 10 times before).
• They bonded over coffee preferences after a failed coffee order anecdote.
• First Date:
  • Location: Mid-range restaurant picked from Nick’s options.
  • Conversation included Becca’s law enforcement background.
  • Unique Moment: Becca asks to switch seats so she can face the door—a "cop move" for situational awareness.
  • Good chemistry, evening ended with a hug and verbal agreement to see each other again.
• Nick is confused by the subsequent ghosting.

Getting Becca’s Side (13:12–17:24)

• Becca joins the call, confirms her comfort with discussing being a cop on air.
• She always checks backgrounds before a date (using her own skills, not police resources).
• Her Issue: She found out Nick is "still technically married" or recently separated, discovering a recent divorce filing—information omitted by Nick.
  • Notable Quote:
    Becca: "I found some things I thought he’d be more forthcoming with. And when he wasn’t… I have no more interest." (14:25)
    Becca: "Honesty is the best policy. We all have a past." (19:34)

Nick is Confronted (17:24–20:59)

• Nick tries to argue it’s not fair for her to dig up his past.
• Claims she might have the wrong Nick—Becca counters by texting him his marriage certificate (public record).
  • Nick finally admits: "It was a mistake. It was a short-term thing. Yes, I was married. Yes, I’m getting a divorce. It’ll be done soon." (19:08)
• Becca makes clear she wanted openness about the separation status on the first date.
• The hosts debate whether it's fair to expect such info up front.
• Ultimately, Becca refuses a second chance despite honest explanations.
  • Becca: "I’m not interested, it’s just a no-brainer for me. You gotta be honest." (20:29)

Segment Takeaways

• Authenticity and transparency, especially regarding relationship status, are non-negotiables for some daters.
• The "cop as human lie detector" trope is validated, as Becca’s investigative skills uncovered Nick’s omission.
• Host reflections on expectations for honesty in dating; some find Becca reasonable, others think Nick’s info was too personal too soon.
• Nick is advised (humorously) to maybe "try a different professional uniform" next time.

Segment 2: Scooter Safety Patrol (24:20–39:40)

Introduction & Set Up (24:20–25:19)

• Marshall reached out after an otherwise solid scooter date went awry.
• Light opening about how unexpected external factors (not just hurricanes or bird poop) can derail a date.

The Scooter Date Disaster Story (25:20–29:56)

• Marshall met Julia online, was drawn to her dragon tattoo and decided to "stand out" with a city scooter date.
• Mid-date, they’re approached at a crosswalk by an ER doctor who loudly lectures them on scooter injuries.
  • Notable Moment:
    Marshall, trying to escape the awkwardness, accidentally runs over the woman’s foot as he leaves, escalating the confrontation.
    • "She’s yelling even louder… I just want to be as far away from the lady as possible." (28:04)

Repairing the Date & Aftermath (29:56–35:46)

• The couple gets drinks afterwards and has more positive conversation, but after the date Julia is distant.
• Julia tells Marshall she’s "going on dates with other people" and is always busy for suggested meetups, leaving Marshall confused but hopeful.

Calling Julia for Answers (32:48–38:05)

• Julia is amiable but blunt:
  • She wants her partner to show extra effort and intentionality.
  • She’s looking for vocal, decisive gestures (calls, concrete plans, not just “Hey, I had a good time” texts).
  • Julia: "A lot of guys have had a good time with me. I want the guy that’s going to put in the extra effort." (35:33)
• Hosts try to defend Marshall’s "respectful" approach; Julia says it’s not enough.
• Julia ultimately asks the hosts to tell Marshall she’s not interested.

On-Air Confrontation (38:05–39:40)

• Marshall, already on the line, thanks her for honesty but accepts the "no."
• Julia is shocked by his passivity, wanting more of a chase:
  • Julia: "I said no to a guy 15–20 times before I said yes. This guy’s still got a ways to go." (38:49)
• Debate ensues: Does "no" mean "no," or is persistence sometimes rewarded?
• Ultimately, Julia stands firm—Marshall gracefully bows out.

---

Host Reflections & Final Thoughts (41:52–43:31)

• Brooke and Jeffrey riff on the game-like nature of modern dating (“Sidewalk Scooter X”).
• They express frustration over unclear dating expectations, advocating for open communication.
  • Jeffrey: "If you have certain rules and expectations about dating, please let us know what they are." (43:08)
• The team empathizes with the rejected daters; Alexis notes listeners are already texting in offers for Marshall.
• The cyclical nature of dating confusion remains the episode’s most relatable theme.

---

Notable Quotes & Moments

• Becca (on honesty):
  "Honesty is the best policy. We all have a past." (19:34)
• Julia (on romantic pursuit):
  "A lot of guys have had a good time with me. I’m looking for the guy that’s gonna put that extra effort in… make me feel like I’m one in a million." (35:33)
• Brooke (on relationship status):
  "If it’s divorced and final, and you’re done, but if you’re in the middle of a separation… you should disclose." (16:13)
• Julia (on persistence):
  "I said no to a guy like 15–20 times before I said yes. This guy’s still got a ways to go." (38:49)
• Jeffrey (pleading for clarity):
  "If you have certain rules and expectations about dating, you please let us know what they are." (43:08)

Episode Tone

The episode maintains a light, teasing, and sometimes sarcastic tone — especially in the hosts’ banter and mock scenarios. While the stories center on real dating frustrations and boundaries, the approach is humorous and conversational, inviting listeners to relate and laugh at the awkwardness of modern romance.

---

Takeaways

• Honesty upfront about major life events (marriage, divorce) can make or break potential relationships, especially if your date is a cop!
• Effort and clarity are frequently cited as crucial—but definitions vary wildly among daters.
• Persistence in dating is a tricky topic: not everyone wants or rewards tenacity, and "no" can mean "no," or not yet, or maybe — communication and boundaries are key.
• The hosts’ empathy and sharp humor help listeners focus on the teachable moments in these awkward dating debacles.

A little special treat every weekend on Saturdays, we do those back to back classics for you. Thank you for finding the second day podcast. It's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning and we still love to highlight your comments. Start this off with I got a big list of them. I feel like, look how big this list is. I really. When Alexis says she reads everything you write.

[Alexis]

She does.

[Brooke]

I really do. You might comment, I might read it three months from you when you write it, but I'll read it. But I saw one from Ire who said, okay. It finally happened. After a year of relentlessly listening to your second date updates, I finally finished them all and the conclusion is, I'll never date again. Oh, thank you guys for bringing me closer to my cat. I'm a Spanish living in Germany. Thank you for bringing me closer to my cat. That's the best tagline ever. I love it. Well, not to spoil your fun, but you do have a chance to go over to our full shows now. Yeah.

[Julia]

Okay.

[Brooke]

We get a brand new full hour for you every day. Your cat can listen with you there. Yeah. Well, that ruin your life.

[Nick]

Yeah.

[Brooke]

All right, you're back to back classics start right now.

[Jeffrey]

What? If you're on a dinner date, you're sat down at your table.

[Brooke]

Okay.

[Jeffrey]

And right before you order, the other person makes a very odd request. For example, do you mind if I facetime my mom with you? Cuz her calming voice just helps me chew my food slower.

[Brooke]

She's gonna stay on the phone even throughout the day. I see.

[Jeffrey]

That'd be strange. But do you just go with it?

[Bowen Yang]

I don't know.

[Alexis]

She was really nervous, baby.

[Jeffrey]

Well, one of our listeners. One of our listeners says his date asked him to do something unusual shortly after they sat down to dinner.

[Brooke]

Oh, okay.

[Jeffrey]

We're gonna see if it had any effect on why he's not getting a call back when we do your second date update right after this.

[Brooke]

Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning, second date update.

[Jeffrey]

There's certain professions out there that are just concerned, considered sexy.

[Brooke]

Oh. Oh, yeah.

[Julia]

Okay.

[Jeffrey]

Like who's not swiping right on a hot firefighter?

[Brooke]

Right. Excuse me?

[Jeffrey]

Oh, okay.

[Brooke]

I thought you were alone or something.

[Jeffrey]

I thought you were gonna say no.

[Brooke]

Or spray me down with a hose.

[Jeffrey]

That's more like.

[Alexis]

That's what Alexis is doing. But she turned her mic on.

[Jeffrey]

Exactly. Or a hunky doctor.

[Alexis]

Yeah, that's the classic, right?

[Jeffrey]

Or a sultry child and family therapist.

[Brooke]

Okay, this is. Let me tell you my problem.

[Jeffrey]

Tell me how my childhood upbringing turned me bad.

[Alexis]

Did you just say abandonment issues?

[Jeffrey]

Oh, yeah. And one of our listeners apparently couldn't resist the lure of a smoke show in a sexy uniform. So let's talk to him about it. His name is Nick. Nick, welcome to the show.

[Nick]

Hey, thanks for having me.

[Marshall]

Okay.

[Alexis]

Wear uniform. I'm getting.

[Brooke]

I am so curious about the profession here.

[Alexis]

Is this like a milkman uniform?

[Jeffrey]

Well, who's this person that you met and what do they do?

[Nick]

Her name is Becca and she's a cop.

[Brooke]

Oh, she is a cop.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, okay, lady cop.

[Alexis]

You cuff me or I cuff you?

[Brooke]

Lady cops are sexy. They are like, you know, their waist always looks so cinched. Like it looks good.

[Jeffrey]

Handcuffs ready to go. And moments of.

[Brooke]

Honestly, just the power that they have.

[Alexis]

Yeah, they're always like, license and registration. And I'm like 5 foot 10 and single.

[Jeffrey]

I'm sure we're all telling you stuff you already know, right, Nick?

[Marshall]

Exactly.

[Brooke]

Now, did you meet her while getting arrested or.

[Nick]

No, we met on the apps.

[Brooke]

Oh, you did?

[Jeffrey]

Okay.

[Brooke]

Okay. If you're a cop, do you share that on the app or is that a.

[Nick]

No, no, that was her picture.

[Brooke]

Oh, it was.

[Nick]

Okay. Of course I made a dumb joke. I said, are you a real cop or a stripper?

[Jeffrey]

Oh, kind of risky, but yikes.

[Brooke]

Did she like that?

[Nick]

No, she was like, haha. You're only the 10th person to say that. Yeah, I guess that was a pretty basic joke.

[Jeffrey]

Yikes. So you're already starting in the hole with her?

[Brooke]

Yeah, but she responded. Isn't that just half the battle? Dating apps?

[Bowen Yang]

Yeah.

[Brooke]

How'd you turn it around?

[Nick]

She did have other pictures on there, and there was a picture of her having a cup of coffee at a cafe. And so I was like, oh, you like coffee?

[Brooke]

I thought for sure you were going to make a donut joke at that point.

[Nick]

I didn't even think of that opportunity that would have been.

[Alexis]

No, no, you already took a jab. You're good, bro.

[Jeffrey]

What did you do with the coffee?

[Nick]

I just was like, oh, yeah. You know, Are you a coffee fan? And she basically got super fired up and was like, you know.

[Alexis]

And then you asked her, what's your drink? Right. Like, that's what you.

[Brooke]

I did.

[Nick]

And then she started going off about how she had gone recently to her favorite coffee shop and they got her coffee order wrong. And she wasn't mad about it, but she was just mentioning. And I was like, yeah, oh, I'll put a bad Yelp review on their site for you. And that made her laugh.

[Brooke]

That's cute. This is a cute connection.

[Jeffrey]

Okay, so this is all the chat leading up to the date.

[Nick]

All the chat leading up to the date. And so I recovered, and I was like, well, let's hang out. Let's go out to dinner.

[Jeffrey]

Nice.

[Brooke]

How was that? Where'd you guys. I mean, was it fancy, or was it more casual?

[Jeffrey]

Was it coffee?

[Nick]

No, it wasn't coffee. It was. I would say it was, you know, mid. I didn't want to go, like, divey, but I also didn't want to go, like, high pressure, super expensive. So went to a place that felt comfortable. Great conversation. We talked a little bit about her working in law enforcement.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah. What is it like to go on a date with a real cop?

[Nick]

You know, she didn't come in the uniform. It was pretty chill.

[Brooke]

Didn't come. Did you expect her at any point?

[Jeffrey]

I don't know.

[Nick]

I know some people get off work and then they just come directly out. No, I wasn't expecting that, I guess.

[Bowen Yang]

Okay.

[Jeffrey]

It would feel like a very powerful move, though, to sit in a booth right next to a cop, and, like,

[Brooke]

I would think that somebody was with their parole officer. Yeah.

[Jeffrey]

Even then you come off as a bad boy at that point. Tell everybody in the restaurant.

[Alexis]

So was she cool, though? Because, like, you're on a date with a cop, I would be nervous the whole time. Did you only have one drink?

[Brooke]

Can you imagine? Like, your tabs are expired, you. And get you.

[Alexis]

That's a good point.

[Jeffrey]

How does it go?

[Nick]

That was on my mind. I was like, I can't tell any stories about my bad boy, early days, all that sort of stuff. But there was one point, you know, we didn't really stick to her working in law enforcement too long. But there was one point where she was like, hey, do you mind if we could switch seats so I can, like, face the door?

[Brooke]

Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. People like that are in law enforcement, like, they always want to see in case they can never be caught by surprise. Yeah. Emergency situation. That's what happens in the movies.

[Alexis]

No, but that's smart, though.

[Jeffrey]

Or it's a good excuse for her to be. Like, when I need to escape from this date, I know exactly where I need to run to.

[Brooke]

I mean, either way.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah. So did you switch?

[Nick]

Yeah, I was down with making that happen, so we did. You know, she's a really smart person. We had really good conversation about lots of topics. I don't know why, at this point she's not texting me back.

[Jeffrey]

Well, how did you. How did the night end?

[Nick]

It ended with, like, a really nice hug. Let's do this again. I didn't go in for the kiss because it didn't feel like we were quite there, but there was definitely some chemistry. And when I said, let's do this again, there was no hesitation. No. Let me think about it. Let me look at my schedule. None of that stuff I can tell the brush off and like an actual let's do this again.

[Brooke]

Right.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah. You should have asked if you could hit the siren in her cop car and driven around the block real quick right along.

[Brooke]

Because no one's ever stick. Never. No one's ever asked that before. I mean, who knows? Maybe she's on an undercover mission and that's why she hasn't gotten back to you, because she's not allowed.

[Jeffrey]

So, wait, Nick, question. Is she the one who suggested that you go have dinner at that particular restaurant?

[Brooke]

Wait a minute. And she had to watch the door? Jeff.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah.

[Nick]

I throw out a couple of options when we were chatting and she selected that one.

[Jeffrey]

Was it in, like, a really shady part of town for no reason whatsoever?

[Brooke]

Or a really nice part of town. Maybe it's a white collar crime. Oh, it could be like embezzlement or something.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, my God. We might actually help solve a crime by doing this second date.

[Becca]

Probably not.

[Brooke]

Well, all right, Alexis, that's not fun.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah. And you know how most cops are when you get them on the phone, they tell you everything.

[Brooke]

Oh, yeah.

[Jeffrey]

They're like an open book.

[Brooke]

Yeah. Those cops. Ye. I don't know that I've ever had that long of a conversation with an officer.

[Jeffrey]

Well, this is going to be a first in a lot of different ways for us.

[Brooke]

Hopefully they don't run a background check on the show.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah.

[Alexis]

What if we have Brook Fleur with the cop?

[Brooke]

Don't. I've never gotten out of a date ever.

[Jeffrey]

This is going to be interesting when we come back. Call Becca and get you your second date update. Right after this.

[Brooke]

Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning, second date update.

[Jeffrey]

Normally our show is getting cops called on us.

[Brooke]

Yeah, that's true.

[Jeffrey]

But today we're the ones calling up a cop.

[Brooke]

That's right.

[Jeffrey]

Tables have turned not to report an emergency, but to get answers for our friend Nick, who went out with a law enforcement officer named Becca the other night.

[Alexis]

So do we just dial 911 and ask for Becca?

[Brooke]

Yeah, I think that's how it works.

[Jeffrey]

We actually have Becca's cell phone number, so it's probably easier to do that.

[Alexis]

Probably more convenient.

[Jeffrey]

Thing is, Nick's not getting a call back after their romantic dinner. Is there a reason for it? Or was the whole dinner a front for a sting operation that she was running to bring down an Italian mob boss?

[Brooke]

I mean, honestly, that sounds like he's making a joke. But she sat facing the door, she picked the restaurant, and now she's not calling him back. Good evidence, Brooke. Thanks, Alexis.

[Jeffrey]

Nick, did you realize when you reached out to us for help that this is where the call was going to go?

[Nick]

I like your imagination. I don't know if that's the case. I just. She's cute, she's smart, she's a great woman.

[Jeffrey]

At least that's what she wants you to think.

[Alexis]

Yeah, dude, sounds like she has a hit out on her. Her back was facing the. She knows that there's a hitman out there looking for dude.

[Jeffrey]

It's possible. Or maybe there's a simple reason and you messed up in some way. Yeah, so let's figure it out. I'm going to dial her number.

[Brooke]

Both are going to be great options.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, whatever it is, we are here for the tea, so let's do it. I'm dialing it right now.

[Becca]

Hello?

[Jeffrey]

Hi, we're looking to speak with Becca.

[Becca]

Speaking.

[Jeffrey]

Hey, Becca. How you doing?

[Alexis]

Officer Becca.

[Brooke]

I'm honestly kind of nervous.

[Jeffrey]

I don't know if we should really mention that it was a little late.

[Becca]

Who is this?

[Jeffrey]

We're Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. And you probably heard my co host say officer Becca, because we heard that you're a cop. And I just want to ask you up front, is it okay for us to mention your profession on the radio?

[Becca]

I'm okay with that.

[Jeffrey]

We're allowed to say that.

[Brooke]

Okay, well, she put it on her dating profile.

[Jeffrey]

He said, but on the radio. I mean, that's a different thing.

[Brooke]

You know, we're sleazier than a dating.

[Jeffrey]

Definitely.

[Brooke]

People probably see her profile than here. Yes, but we're joking back.

[Jeffrey]

Bottom line is we wanted to talk to you about a date you went on recently with a guy named Nick.

[Marshall]

Yeah, that sigh was not good.

[Jeffrey]

So Nick reached out to us because he said he really enjoy spending time with you that night and he's curious if there's a reason why you're not calling him back and arranging a second meetup.

[Brooke]

Honestly, I'd say he's clueless. Like he really expected to see you again.

[Becca]

Yeah. So obviously I work in law enforcement. I've been on the force for some time now, so I'm going to always look up who I'm going on a date with or who I'm spending time with.

[Brooke]

Don't you wish you had that type of access, Alexis? I know, I only have my reverse Google image search.

[Becca]

Yeah, I mean, but like, I did this on my own time. I don't use like police scanners. I hired someone myself.

[Brooke]

You're just doing your own normal. Just. You're probably better at it than us.

[Jeffrey]

You got more resources than the average person.

[Becca]

Yeah, I found some things that I thought he would be more forthcoming with, and when he wasn't, I. It turned me off. I have no more interest.

[Brooke]

Did he lie? Are you saying he lied to you on the date?

[Becca]

He did kind of abstain from the truth. He wasn't forthcoming with information, which I feel is a lie.

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Alexis]

You're dating a cop. You have to be honest. Especially if it's about.

[Jeffrey]

Hold on.

[Alexis]

Can I ask, was it like a criminal thing? Right. That's the only thing you looked up, right?

[Becca]

I don't know if it's appropriate for the radio.

[Brooke]

Okay. If you feel wanted, if it's like a record that is supposed to be private, then don't share it. But if it's something we could. Any of us could find on the Internet, spill away.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, we honestly don't have standards, but we. The part. The thing that you don't. You might not realize, Becca, is that part of being on this segment is the person agrees to hear whatever the reason is, no matter how embarrassing or strange it might be.

[Becca]

I mean, if he agreed to that, then, yeah, I'll share it. Yeah, he was married a year ago to a Russian woman, and she filed for divorce about a month ago.

[Marshall]

Oh, that's.

[Becca]

Yeah, that's a huge part of his life. And to just withhold that information,

[Nick]

that's

[Brooke]

a lot of first date to bring up, though. I'm with Alexis on that. Like, how do you even start? So listen, I had this Russian wife and a month ago, like that, you

[Jeffrey]

were expecting him to Bring that up.

[Becca]

Yeah, I think I was expecting him to tell me if he was separated. Being separated is a lot different from divorce.

[Brooke]

Oh, it's not official yet.

[Becca]

Yeah, I feel like he could withhold a lot of information if he's not forthcoming about the truth, but that's kind of.

[Brooke]

See that. I mean, I don't know. I kind of. I'm with her on that. Like, if it's divorced and final and you're done with it. But if you're in the middle of a separation and I think you can

[Jeffrey]

list it on your dating profile, like, specifically your status. Single, divorce, separating.

[Brooke]

Is that what you look for? Mostly is the mostly.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, the most traumatized would be great.

[Brooke]

So, like, the crier.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, but how? Like, did you even talk about relationships at all on the date?

[Becca]

Yeah, I mean, I hinted about it and I shared about mine a little bit, you know, keeping respectful details private. But, yeah, he said he didn't want to talk about it, and it seemed like he was evading the truth instead of just a private person.

[Jeffrey]

Okay, so can you at least let

[Alexis]

him off with a warning?

[Jeffrey]

You know, Becca, I think the person who's actually going to find all of this the most interesting. Whoa. Is actually Nick himself, who is listening on the other line, has tapped into our phone somehow.

[Alexis]

And that's not against the law.

[Jeffrey]

We did consent to it, though. So he is there wanting to talk to you.

[Becca]

Wow. Come on, guys.

[Jeffrey]

I'm sorry. It's how it works.

[Brooke]

I mean, you wanted the truth out of him. Now's the chance.

[Jeffrey]

Nick, you there?

[Nick]

Yeah, I'm here. So, what's up? Becca, you go on dates with people and you look up their history before you do, so.

[Julia]

Yes, Nick, I'm a cop and a girl, I think.

[Brooke]

Yeah, right.

[Nick]

Well, we were going to a public place, and I feel like that's kind of using your cop resources to look up my history was.

[Becca]

Excuse me. I didn't use police resources. I used my own personal resources. And I just think it's really weird you wouldn't say anything.

[Nick]

I mean, I'm not telling you if that's true or not. I mean, you could have looked that up on some strange site that has false information.

[Alexis]

Fake marriages, fake divorces.

[Brooke]

Okay, I'm actually gonna back him on this because I have a friend whose fiance looked her up when they were dating, and he got all the information wrong.

[Nick]

It's true. You probably have the wrong guy.

[Alexis]

Nick is a common name, Becca.

[Jeffrey]

Is that a possibility? That maybe it's a different Nick and you mixed them up.

[Becca]

It's 100%, Nick.

[Brooke]

Really?

[Bowen Yang]

100%?

[Jeffrey]

How do you know that?

[Becca]

Because I'm a cop.

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Becca]

Okay, I'm gonna text you your marriage certificate right now.

[Nick]

No, no, no, wait.

[Jeffrey]

You can do that?

[Alexis]

You got the marriage certificate?

[Brooke]

I think it's public record. Yeah, I think.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, wow. You can look.

[Alexis]

We should look.

[Jeffrey]

I know how many she has. Or is it not Kidding.

[Brooke]

I'm kidding. Michael, if you're listening, which.

[Becca]

Michael, it's absolutely public record. And I just texted you a photo of it. And there's your wife's name.

[Jeffrey]

Wait, Nick, do you have a text?

[Nick]

Nick, look, here's the deal.

[Brooke]

I defended you.

[Jeffrey]

Wait a minute.

[Nick]

It was a mistake. It was a short term thing. Yes, I was married. Yes, I'm getting a divorce. It's gonna be done very soon.

[Brooke]

What? Yeah, you should have just said that 10 minutes ago.

[Alexis]

We're back at the start, but the truth is out.

[Jeffrey]

Should have been the first thing you said to her when you greeted her inside of the restaurant. Opened up about your separation.

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Nick]

Hi.

[Brooke]

How you doing?

[Alexis]

I'm going through a divorce.

[Brooke]

Becca, if he would have told you that, you would have been okay with it? Really?

[Becca]

I mean, honesty is the best policy. We all have a past.

[Brooke]

Wow. Yeah.

[Nick]

Like, come on. What else do you know about me? Do you look at my record? From what, college?

[Brooke]

Wait, you're still the one being defensive. You just got outed as a liar.

[Jeffrey]

Well, I am curious what you did in college. Yeah, sounds kind of funny.

[Alexis]

I want to know.

[Nick]

It was a stupid prank with a cow. But that's not even the point with cows.

[Brooke]

What? Nick, it's not her fault, man.

[Nick]

Okay, well, I'm not saying it's her fault. I'm saying it's my past and it's not relevant.

[Jeffrey]

In Nick's defense, this is kind of embarrassing information to open up with. Not to mention, like on the radio, but especially on a first date with someone you're trying to impress.

[Brooke]

He's the one that chose to do the radio part.

[Jeffrey]

Well, I know. I'm just saying this is a lot. I'm trying to defend a guy who's in a weird spot here. So, Becca, he has admitted that you were right and he's ready to move on. Hopefully with you. Would you be willing to give him a chance?

[Brooke]

So.

[Becca]

I'm not interested, guys. It's just a no brainer for me. You gotta be honest.

[Nick]

Oh, man, I. I wasn't dishonest. I. I am separated. I'm getting a divorce.

[Jeffrey]

It's just Too late.

[Brooke]

You started with it. Probably wasn't me.

[Nick]

I didn't know she was such a good cop.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, her interrogation skills are next level, dude. So maybe like a different professional uniform, like a coast guard. They won't look up your past.

[Brooke]

How about just be honest on the next day?

[Jeffrey]

That's no fun.

[Brooke]

Why is this so difficult?

[Becca]

Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.

[Jeffrey]

Why do our listeners love it so much when people get busted in a lie? On our second date, calls, literally text into 78592 says, I knew that guy was a liar the moment I heard him. I think I went out with him two months ago before he was separated. Who knows if that's true? But we could ask a certain officer that we know to go and investigate that particular text.

[Alexis]

Oh, yeah, we're friends now with a cop.

[Brooke]

I don't know that it's worth her time. Or our time probably. We're just gonna let that one lie? He needs to work out his own mess.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah.

[Alexis]

If anything, we call her, ask for help. She'll probably run our names and one of us will get arrested.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, I hope she does.

[Brooke]

I'm surprised that we're all sitting here without handcuffs on.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, I know we all enjoy a good pair of handcuffs around our.

[Brooke]

It's not what I meant.

[Jeffrey]

Is that not what she meant? I thought you were going someone else conversation. Anyway, unfortunately, that call turned out to not end in a Second date. No, we can't win them all, but we can always try. If you email the show, we'll call that person who's not calling you back and go check out all of our second dates. Wherever you find your podcast, on Apple, Spotify, even on YouTube at. Brooke and Jeffrey.

[Becca]

Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.

[Jeffrey]

On this show we always report on Karens and over the top public tantrums that go viral online.

[Brooke]

Oh yeah, because it's so like. It's so much tea to talk about it. You know, it's like it's a good

[Jeffrey]

gossip subject, it's funny audio to play on the show, but it's never actually happened during one of our second dates. That is until today. Wait, I'm not even talking about Brooke's role in the call.

[Brooke]

Okay?

[Jeffrey]

I'm talking about.

[Brooke]

That is enough. I tired of that joke.

[Jeffrey]

Okay, call the manager on me.

[Brooke]

Brooke. Go ahead.

[Jeffrey]

I dare you. But one of our listeners says he had a run in with a random woman who started screaming at him in the middle of his first date. Just out in public. And you're never gonna believe the topic that made her go off. You're gonna hear the full story in your second date update. Next.

[Brooke]

Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning second date update.

[Jeffrey]

Sometimes you can plan the perfect date, but then some outside force that you can't control comes into play and changes everything like.

[Brooke]

Like a hurricane.

[Jeffrey]

Okay, yeah, probably shouldn't be going on a date if there's an eminent hurricane about to bear down on you.

[Brooke]

Sometimes you just need love.

[Jeffrey]

I guess I was thinking more like when Brooke was on a date eating her potato salad and a bird pooped on it. But it didn't stop her though. Brooke kept on eating, holding eye contact with that dude dude the entire time.

[Brooke]

Okay, I could usually go along with these, but that one is too far. I would not eat the potato salad. I would then steal his food and eat whatever he was eating.

[Jeffrey]

I'm not sure if our listener Marshall has quite the same resilience as Brooke does on her date. Let's find out though. Marshall, welcome to the show, man.

[Marshall]

Hey, how's everyone doing?

[Brooke]

Oh, it sounds like better than you. It sounds like you had something terrible happen on your date.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, we don't know how terrible Before. Before we get to the.

[Brooke]

Your setup made it feel awful.

[Jeffrey]

Bir poop doesn't sound that horrible on your food. I don't know.

[Alexis]

But before we.

[Jeffrey]

Before we get to the crazy whatever thing that happened that derailed the date, let's start with the girl that you met? Who's she?

[Marshall]

Yes. So her name's Julia. We met online. She's super cute.

[Brooke]

Okay, was there something about her that stood out from everybody else?

[Marshall]

Well, other than her beautiful smile and

[Nick]

beautiful hair, of course.

[Marshall]

She had this beautiful dragon tattoo on her shoulder. And, like, you know, I'm really into, like, tattoos and it was. It was super hot and just. It was just beautiful.

[Nick]

It was beautiful.

[Brooke]

That's awesome.

[Jeffrey]

And that's a good, like, conversation point to come up on a date.

[Brooke]

Oh, I mean, people are so proud of their tattoos. I bet she would love to have a compliment about it.

[Alexis]

Some girls get annoyed because guys always say the same thing. I like your tattoo. Did it hurt?

[Brooke]

You know, I don't think that's bad. It's when you ask what the meaning is. That's the meaning. Alexis hates meanings. I just wanted one because I was drunk. Okay. Butterfly. Cuz it's a butterfly.

[Jeffrey]

Okay, well, at least the initial attraction was there for you. What did you and Julia do for your date?

[Marshall]

Well, I wanted to do something different, right? So I didn't want to be like every other guy that was hitting her up online. So I was like, well, let's do something somewhat romantic and get city scooters and ride around the city.

[Brooke]

Oh, I love that.

[Marshall]

Go to some of my favorite spots.

[Brooke]

Yeah, like, you know, like the scooters that you can, like, use your app on and rent them. Yeah, my husband and I do that sometimes. It's so good.

[Jeffrey]

That doesn't bode well for you, Marshall.

[Brooke]

Oh, no, we bring helmets, though, because there are a lot of people not wearing helmets. I've never seen someone wear a helmet on those. Oh, I definitely do. You're going 20, 25 miles an hour, Alexis.

[Jeffrey]

Yikes. Did you go helmets or. No helmets, Marshall?

[Nick]

No helmets. No helmets.

[Jeffrey]

All right.

[Marshall]

You know, it's funny that you say that, because everything was going well. We got ice cream, we got coffee and everything. But then we're at a crosswalk and this woman comes up, she says, like, you know, she's an ER doctor, and she's like, listen, I've been doing this for over 20 years, and most of the injuries I've seen have come from those scooters right there.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, my God.

[Brooke]

Oh, my God.

[Alexis]

Brooke was right.

[Brooke]

See?

[Jeffrey]

See, that sucks, though. Like, what a mood killer to happen in the middle of your.

[Brooke]

Did you literally scoot off or what are you doing?

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, what do you even say?

[Alexis]

Or did you walk off? Walk the scooter.

[Jeffrey]

So you were safe.

[Marshall]

Well, you know, I'm sitting there, and I'm like, come on, lady. I'm obviously on a date here. So, you know, I kind of laugh it off. Ha. Okay. And so I'm like, let me get out of this situation as quick as possible.

[Brooke]

Brain injuries.

[Marshall]

As I was pulling away, you wouldn't believe it. I ran over this lady's foot.

[Jeffrey]

Are you serious?

[Alexis]

Oh, the irony.

[Becca]

I felt horrible.

[Marshall]

And she's yelling even louder.

[Brooke]

She's in pain.

[Jeffrey]

That's why you gotta gun it and get away from the screams.

[Marshall]

After that point, I was like, I just want to be as far away from this lady as possible. She was okay. I took the tongue lashing, and I'm like, all right, let's just go. And Julia's not really wanting to ride these scooters anymore after that.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, yeah.

[Brooke]

Oh, weird time to park up.

[Nick]

Yeah.

[Brooke]

I mean, did you guys just find a bar or something or a restaurant to go to?

[Marshall]

Yeah, actually, we did. I was like, let's just go over here. This is a nice spot. We got a couple drinks and.

[Brooke]

Oh, that's good.

[Marshall]

Everything just seemed cool.

[Brooke]

Yeah. You read what she wanted, right? Like that. I mean, it's good. Like, some people be like, let's just keep going and ignore the other person's feelings. Why are you laughing every time.

[Jeffrey]

It's like, any drink comes into playbooks. Like, okay, good, good. Thank God. I mean, riding scooters, dangerous, heavy drinking. Thumbs up.

[Brooke]

No, I just. Helmet.

[Bowen Yang]

Yeah,

[Brooke]

I wear a helmet to win night. No, I mean, it's good that he read what she wanted and needed and

[Jeffrey]

salvaged the date from total dessert. I mean, did you salvage it from that point? Did it feel good from that point on?

[Marshall]

Well, I thought so. I mean, we had a great time. We shared laughs, got a couple drinks, and everything was fine. But, well, I've been trying to get in contact with her and have another date for the last two weeks. And she's just always had some other excuse, you know? And she even told me that she's been going out on dates, which is cool. Don't get me wrong. Like, I get it. She's a beautiful girl.

[Brooke]

I say that. Do people say that to each other?

[Jeffrey]

No.

[Brooke]

You don't want to go out with them?

[Jeffrey]

She's telling you I'm seeing other guys. I can't meet up with you.

[Alexis]

That's a bad sign.

[Julia]

I got a date.

[Brooke]

Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday. Sorry, I can't fit you in.

[Marshall]

Well, she did say, let's pick another night, but it just seems like every night I pick there's always something.

[Brooke]

Okay. Yeah. Okay, so maybe she was just saying that because she felt bad about that. That whole being real honest thing with the date, you know, Maybe not though.

[Jeffrey]

But it might be a good sign that she's being totally transparent and telling you what's going on in her life.

[Alexis]

But also, it's hard to reject people, so maybe she's hoping he figures it out.

[Brooke]

Like, how about we just find out?

[Jeffrey]

We need to figure it out.

[Alexis]

Oh, I have an idea. Let's call her.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, we're going to call her. We're all going to have helmets before we make the call. Just because we don't know what disaster might be waiting on the other end.

[Alexis]

Always has five in her car.

[Brooke]

Seriously, you should wear a helmet on those things.

[Jeffrey]

All right, we're going to come back.

[Brooke]

Second dates.

[Jeffrey]

An extra safe edition of your second date update right after this.

[Brooke]

Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Second date update.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, can you guys picture it right now?

[Brooke]

Picture what?

[Jeffrey]

This is the background music I have in my head as Marshall navigates through the busy city sidewalks, cruising at 3 mph without a helmet on.

[Brooke]

Whoa.

[Alexis]

It's like Frogger.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, dodge the fire hydrant, Marshall. Jump the manhole.

[Brooke]

Yep, it's all fun and games until somebody gets hurt.

[Jeffrey]

That's right, because he's an adrenaline junkie riding without a helmet on. That's probably why he called into the show this morning. Just for the high of being on the radio.

[Alexis]

Oh, open sewer coming up.

[Jeffrey]

Isn't that right, Marshall? You got your adrenaline fix just talking to us, didn't you?

[Marshall]

Yeah, yeah, I did.

[Nick]

Yeah,

[Jeffrey]

I see right through you.

[Brooke]

This sounds like the theme song of an 80s like video game, by the way.

[Jeffrey]

Well, we've all been there. The dangerous streets. But the worst part of the date was when Marshall accidentally ran over a lady's foot who warned him that scooters are very dangerous and up causing a lot of ER visits. And of course it ended up happening during his date.

[Alexis]

And Brooke is upset he wasn't wearing a helmet.

[Brooke]

That's not about me. I mean, it's about his date. Like he was able to rescue the night. They went out, got some drinks, calmed down.

[Jeffrey]

At least we thought he rescued it. But it's been two weeks and she still hasn't agreed to another date. Even told him that she's seeing another guy on one of the nights. Kind of harsh, but.

[Brooke]

But honest.

[Jeffrey]

Brutally honest, you know, and maybe that's a good sign. Marcy, ready to call her ear?

[Nick]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Marshall]

Hopefully we can get to the Bottom of this.

[Alexis]

Buckle your helmet up.

[Brooke]

I mean, you don't sound like a dangerous guy. So I think that it's probably not the scooter mishap.

[Jeffrey]

That's what they say about all the most dangerous people in the world. I never would have suspected him to be the killer.

[Alexis]

So nice.

[Jeffrey]

No helmet.

[Alexis]

No helmet killer.

[Jeffrey]

All right, Marshall, let's just do this. I'm going to call Julia for you. Here we go.

[Julia]

Hello?

[Jeffrey]

Hey, is this Julia?

[Julia]

May I ask who's calling?

[Jeffrey]

Yes, you may ask. We are.

[Brooke]

Good question.

[Nick]

We are a radio show number.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, we have to protect our number because we're a radio show.

[Julia]

Ok. What is this about?

[Jeffrey]

This is about a segment we do on Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. That's what this show is. It's called Second Date Update.

[Julia]

Oh, okay. And who is it you're looking for?

[Jeffrey]

For you.

[Brooke]

Yeah, for the star.

[Julia]

Me.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, we heard about you through one of our listeners named Marshall that apparently you went on a date with a couple weeks ago.

[Julia]

Oh, Marshall? Yep.

[Alexis]

What do you mean, oh, Marshall?

[Brooke]

I think that sounded good.

[Jeffrey]

There was a smile on her face when she said his name. For sure.

[Julia]

Why would he have the radio calling me, though? It's just a little confusing because, you know, he has my number. So what's going on?

[Jeffrey]

He's been using that number to try and ask you out, but you keep brushing him off or being busy or

[Brooke]

maybe you're not brushing him off. He doesn't know. He felt like maybe. Maybe you don't like him that much.

[Jeffrey]

That's why he's going through us. He's trying to get some clarity.

[Julia]

You know, it just. How do I explain this? There's nothing wrong with him per se, but I'm looking for a partner in life. I want my ride or die.

[Jeffrey]

Like a ride, a scooter die. Maybe because we heard you guys rode city scooters.

[Julia]

Oh, my goodness. He told you about that?

[Nick]

Yeah.

[Jeffrey]

Apparently this is the background music that was playing the entire time. Because you two are rebels who ride without helmets on.

[Brooke]

Yeah, I mean, it's. It's really. Honestly, ride or die in that situation because you should be protecting your head.

[Julia]

No, absolutely. Honestly, it didn't occur to me until after that woman. Like, she sort of accosted us, but I didn't really think about it.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, we heard there was an old lady that, like, approached you and said riding scooters causes a lot of ER visits.

[Brooke]

I think she was an ER doctor.

[Julia]

She could have maybe been, like, a

[Nick]

little more pleasant about it.

[Julia]

She sort of just, like, started shouting at us. And I think Marshall handled it all right. He got a little panicky.

[Brooke]

Yeah, it sounds fun, though.

[Jeffrey]

And I think Marshall even admitted that it was kind of an awkward moment in the date. But overall, when you look at Marshall as a person, we're not sure why you wouldn't want to see him one more time. Time.

[Julia]

It's not that I don't want to see him. It's not. He's not, like, giving me, like, that wow factor at least. You know, not in a good way. Like, I mean, yeah, he's texted me, but has he called me, you know, voice. The voice and asked me out again?

[Brooke]

A lot of people don't like that these days.

[Jeffrey]

You're looking for.

[Julia]

He also hasn't, like, called me or, like, texted him and, like, let's do this. At this time on this date, he's just like, hey, I had a good time. And I'm like, that's nice, but a lot of guys have had a good time with me. I'm looking for the guy that's gonna put that extra effort into it and make me feel like I'm one in a million.

[Alexis]

What if he's not trying to come

[Bowen Yang]

off, like, super thirsty, though?

[Alexis]

Like, what if he just wants to have a conversation throughout the day and then naturally bring up a date, you know?

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Jeffrey]

I think he's trying to be respectful of you.

[Alexis]

There it is. That's what I was trying to say.

[Brooke]

I mean, sounded really good to me.

[Julia]

Yeah, text is nothing. I want flowers. I want gestures.

[Alexis]

So you're not even sure if he likes you?

[Brooke]

No, no, she's saying that she needs more. She knows that he likes her, but

[Jeffrey]

it's not a grand enough gesture.

[Brooke]

And it's like, in life, she's looking for somebody who's going to put the work in.

[Julia]

Absolutely. So, I mean, if you guys could actually just let him know that I'm not interested, that would be really helpful.

[Brooke]

Okay, so you know what you want, and you don't think it's Marshall?

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, if you want us to tell him no, we could. Or honestly, you could just do it yourself, because he's actually on the phone right now and has been listening in on this whole conversation. Marshall.

[Julia]

Exactly what I didn't want to do.

[Alexis]

You're laughing and smiling.

[Brooke]

Yeah, but he's finally on the phone. Remember, that's what you wanted.

[Jeffrey]

Marshall, you there, man?

[Marshall]

Hey, Julia. Sorry, this is a little awkward. I apologize about that.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, Marshall, I don't know if you heard all that, but she was trying to tell you that she's not that interested and it's probably not going to happen.

[Marshall]

You know what? That's okay. I got the clarity that I needed.

[Brooke]

He's going to give up.

[Marshall]

I appreciate you being honest.

[Julia]

Wait, seriously?

[Marshall]

Well, I mean I texted you and

[Becca]

oh, you're calling me?

[Julia]

Everybody texts me. Are you kidding me? Oh my God, I'm not to be a jerk here but like you went through all this trouble and you like you have me on the radio and everything and I'm like oh, no thanks. And you're just like hey, bye. Like where's the gesture?

[Jeffrey]

He's listening to what you're saying.

[Julia]

He's listening to me saying he's a great guy who's not showing enough enthusiasm.

[Brooke]

Like, like it's fine situations, but it's,

[Jeffrey]

we've learned don't take no for an answer is not an acceptable thing anymore.

[Alexis]

I guess.

[Brooke]

Yes.

[Jeffrey]

That's not allowed.

[Alexis]

The girl's like never call me again. You go, okay, I'll respect that. And she's like, oh, now you're never

[Jeffrey]

gonna give up because I said it.

[Brooke]

Sometimes I mean it, sometimes we mean it. So you have to figure out ways.

[Julia]

I didn't say never call me again. I said, oh, he's really, really sweet, but I'm not that interested. That's like a far cry from never call me again.

[Brooke]

I gotta say though, Marshall.

[Alexis]

Still want him to call you even though you're not interested in it?

[Becca]

Marshall.

[Brooke]

I'm just kind of surprised that you're up more of a fight either.

[Marshall]

Okay, I, well you know what? I'm sorry, I, I, I guess I was just trying to feel out the situation. I didn't want to bother you, but I really wanted to see you again. So do you want to go out with me? I would love to take you out again.

[Julia]

Oh man, I appreciate the offer, but I really am not interested.

[Brooke]

You just set him up to turn him down.

[Jeffrey]

Are you kidding me?

[Brooke]

Jul, come on, give him a chance. Like he went the extra mile. He planned a unique snake date.

[Alexis]

You don't want a chance with this girl, bro.

[Marshall]

Look, Julie, I'm sorry about the scooters. We can wear helmet. We can do whatever you want. We can go to a bar. Marshall.

[Julia]

Oh my God, just stop. Seriously. I already said no. You're embarrassing yourself.

[Jeffrey]

You just told him that's what you

[Alexis]

really want to do.

[Julia]

You guys don't understand how any of this. That's only like eight no's.

[Jeffrey]

Eight nos. How many nos does it take?

[Julia]

I said no to a guy like 15 to 20 times before I said yes. Like this guys still got a ways to go.

[Alexis]

Oh, my God.

[Brooke]

I feel like you're just going to end up attracting Red Flag men. I don't know, man.

[Alexis]

How's it going from here on out, guys? Do we just forever ask girls out and never take.

[Jeffrey]

No. Well, we have to at least ask one more time officially, for the rules. Julia, would you like to go out with Marshall again one more time? We would pay for it. We have to get the. No, I think.

[Brooke]

Oh. Oh.

[Julia]

Oh, I. He's so sweet, but I.

[Nick]

No, I'm so.

[Bowen Yang]

Would you like to go out with

[Jeffrey]

Marshall one more time?

[Bowen Yang]

I would not.

[Jeffrey]

Okay, one more time.

[Brooke]

Yes. Stop. All right, Julian, that's too much.

[Nick]

Just.

[Julia]

Just knock that into him.

[Brooke]

Okay, that's. That's what it really came down to.

[Alexis]

I could have said that.

[Brooke]

We could have just ended it as soon as we got Marshall on the. Sorry, Marshall.

[Alexis]

We love you, though, Marshall.

[Marshall]

It's okay. I guess I wish I would have known sooner, but I mean, I wish you the best.

[Alexis]

There's some girls on the text board that would like your number.

[Jeffrey]

Just so you know, I have a feeling that we're not done with Marshall yet. We're going to have to do seven more second data. Julia. We'll eventually get her to say yes. One of these days, bro.

[Julia]

I'll teach him.

[Brooke]

You'll teach him what?

[Nick]

Oh,

[Alexis]

roll around the city by himself

[Jeffrey]

looking for his next date, beating off into the sunset at a brisk 4 mph. One day you'll come back at that day, buddy. All right.

[Bowen Yang]

All right.

[Marshall]

I appreciate you guys.

[Alexis]

Yeah.

[Jeffrey]

Good luck, man.

[Brooke]

Good luck.

[Becca]

Man, that really was just like an old school arcade game.

[Brooke]

How?

[Jeffrey]

Sidewalk Scooter X.

[Alexis]

It was Frogger.

[Jeffrey]

And we tried to help Marshall beat that final boss level and get him a second date.

[Brooke]

Wait, you're making her the big monster at the end of the video?

[Bowen Yang]

Is that what you.

[Brooke]

You're doing?

[Alexis]

She's like the gorilla.

[Jeffrey]

That's like. But we tried and tried until ran out of lives.

[Alexis]

Darn it.

[Jeffrey]

Good news is he can always pop in another quarter and try again. Eventually beat that game.

[Brooke]

No. What ups there?

[Jeffrey]

I guess I would ask people to text in to 78592 should Marshall keep trying to get another date, but I know 99% are going to say no.

[Alexis]

Brook was the only one who.

[Bowen Yang]

No.

[Brooke]

It's like she was saying what she wanted, and then when he gave it to her, then she didn't want it anymore. I think she. I think she just didn't want him.

[Becca]

Well, yeah.

[Brooke]

Do you know what I mean? Like, I think. I think she could have had him. Yeah.

[Jeffrey]

I think in general, I'm just gonna speak for all of the people out there, for all the women listening. And Brooke would agree with me.

[Brooke]

Wouldn't continue. Whatever you're about. I'm just gonna put it out there, ladies.

[Jeffrey]

If you have certain. Certain rules and expectations about dating, you, please let us know what they are.

[Brooke]

All right, that's valid.

[Jeffrey]

Okay, can we just know ahead of time instead of having to guess what it is you want and don't want? Yeah, I don't know.

[Brooke]

If you guess right, you move up in the ranks real fast. I'm actually with Jeff on that one. I mean, like, a little handbook for everyone, men and women would be really nice.

[Jeffrey]

You ever wonder how far an EV can take you on one charge?

[Nick]

Well, most people drive about 40 miles a day, which means you can do all daily stuff no problem. Go to work, grab the kids at school, get the groceries and still have enough charge to visit your in laws in the next county.

[Jeffrey]

But they don't need to know that. And the best part? You won't have to buy gas at all.
