Episode Overview

This episode features two classic "Second Date Update" stories, both offering wild, unexpected turns in the quest to diagnose why a promising first date led to radio silence (with a few laughs at the expense of dating culture itself). The hosts—Brooke, Jeffrey, Alexis, and Marcus—bring their signature irreverence and playful banter to each segment, delighting listeners with dating mishaps, bombshell reveals, and a TikTok-fueled twist for the ages.

---

Segment 1: "Secret Mission"

Timestamps: [03:16] – [21:12]

Main Storyline

• Michael’s Dating Dilemma
  • Michael, a returning listener, seeks help understanding why Megan, a woman he met in “real life” at a grocery store, ghosted him after their first hangout.
  • The date: Megan comes over to Michael's for a movie night (her idea). Everything seems relaxed and comfortable, but then she abruptly leaves, saying she needs to grab something from her car—and never returns.
  • After reaching out, Michael receives a terse but direct text: “Hey, sorry, it’s not going to work out between us.”

Notable Quotes

• Brooke: “How does it feel to, like, lower your standards of advice this low?” ([05:52])
• Alexis (on Megan leaving): “That's a dramatic way to leave. Whoa.” ([09:31])
• Michael: “I just want to know what was the turnoff? Because I'm confused. Was it my apartment? Was it something I did?” ([10:40])

---

The Reveal

• Megan answers the hosts’ call, unexpectedly chipper when confronted. She admits the entire “organic” grocery store meeting was a setup.
• The twist:
  • Megan and Michael’s ex are friends from book club.
  • Michael’s ex enlisted Megan’s help to retrieve her guitar, which Michael still had post-breakup.
  • Megan orchestrated the in-store run-in and subsequent hangout at his place to get access and recover the guitar, slipping it out unnoticed.
• Megan reveals she’s actually engaged, and the entire “date” was an undercover mission.

Notable Quotes

• Christy/Megan: “She basically was like venting one day and she was like, my ex-boyfriend won’t give me back my guitar.… We kind of set up to, you know, run into Michael at the grocery store.” ([16:49])
• Michael: “It's more amazing that you pulled it off than… Why would I be angry about that?” ([19:41])
• Christy/Megan (dating advice): “You definitely gotta be more aware of your surroundings. And don't bring people to your house.” ([20:35])

---

Reactions and Takeaways

• The hosts are stunned and entertained by Megan’s devious but oddly admirable operation.
• Michael is more impressed than mad, showing genuine good humor.
• The group jokes about what Michael learned: “Assume every girl you meet wants to steal something from you.” ([20:49])

---

Memorable Moment

• Brooke: “Well, if he’s not giving the guitar back, I say do what you gotta do.” ([23:38])

---

Segment 2: "Three Wheelin’ It"

Timestamps: [24:17] – [41:09]

Main Storyline

• Leo’s Confusing First Date
  • Leo met Christy through a Facebook bike club and asked her out.
  • When Leo arrives at the date, he discovers Christy has brought along another man, David—no explanation or warning.
  • The trio shares an odd dynamic throughout dinner, full of inside jokes between Christy and David. Leo is left unclear whether David is a friend, roommate, boyfriend, or even a stepdad.
  • Awkward group hug at the end, and Christy later texts, wanting “all three” to hang out again.

Notable Quotes

• Jeffrey: “So you want…for us to surgically remove David from the situation and have it just be a one on one with you and Chrissy, cut him out of it.” ([30:41])
• Leo (on the group hug): “I was like, we should all hang out again sometime. And I don't know why the hell I said that.” ([29:32])

---

The Reveal

• Christy confirms she likes Leo, but insists the next outing must include David.
• The real bombshell comes:
  • Christy: “Actually, it’s more than three of us… there’s a fourth.” ([35:29])
  • A fourth person (her friend) was secretly filming the “date” as part of a TikTok challenge—“Two Dates, One Night”.
• Both Leo and David were unwitting contestants, with viewers voting in the comments for their favorite.

Notable Quotes

• Megan/Christy (on the TikTok challenge): “I am really doing well on TikTok right now, and there’s this trend. It’s called Two Dates, One Night.” ([36:11])
• Leo (processing): “I’m honestly weirdly impressed in a way, but…” ([38:05])
• Brooke: “If the tables were turned and you showed up to a dude and he had another girl sitting there—”
  Megan/Christy: “Well, that’s different. I mean, it’s different when you’re a girl.” ([39:02])

---

Reactions and Takeaways

• The hosts are equal parts horrified and fascinated by Christy’s viral dating experiment.
• Leo, while impressed, ultimately declines any further involvement—but Christy tries to keep the content rolling by asking if he knows someone else who looks like him!

Memorable Moment

• Christy: “You just ruined my TikTok.” ([37:41])
• Leo: “David does owe me dinner though.” ([41:02])

---

Host Reactions & Final Thoughts

Timestamps: [41:15] – [44:00]

• The hosts riff on the absurdity of modern dating, social media challenges, and the blurred ethics of involving people in “content” without consent.
• They also muse on their lack of invites to viral TikTok challenges and joke about setting aside self-respect for social media fame.
• Jeffrey: “Sometimes I think you need to put your standards and your self-respect to the side… in the name of social media infamy, it’s a small price to pay.” ([43:34])

---

Key Takeaways

• Episode Tone: Playful, irreverent, empathetic with a side of cynicism about modern dating.
• Memorable Quotes: Packed with quotable one-liners and genuine, big-reveal moments that highlight the bizarre realities of contemporary romance.
• Segment Structure: Each story starts as a typical “ghosted” date scenario, veers into unexpected territory (covert missions, secret social media stunts), and ends with the participants (and hosts) learning something about boundaries, trust, and the wild landscape of the modern dating scene.

---

For listeners wanting classic “Second Date Update” chaos, drama, and plenty of candid host reactions, this two-fer episode delivers huge on entertainment—with lessons about assuming the best (and worst!) in modern romance.

[Brooke]

Alright, it's your back to back Classics today on your second date podcast. That's where we play two previously love. Okay, is that what they say at thrift stores? Yeah, I like that

[Marcus]

second day to

[Brooke]

say it so that you just get a little bit longer of a segment here. So thank you so much for being here and we love it if you subscribe. It does really truly make a difference in the eyes of our bosses. So thank you for doing that. But first, your comments.

[Marcus]

Yeah, Marcus said marriage therapists should play these segments during sessions, then ask their clients if they really want to go back into the dating pool or work things out.

[Brooke]

That is not where it is. I thought that was going.

[Alexis]

Wow.

[Marcus]

Listen guys, it's good to be here.

[Alexis]

It's like taking your cat to a shelter and being like, see all these kids. Could be you.

[Marcus]

It really is.

[Alexis]

You're lucky.

[Jeffrey]

That's so bad.

[Alexis]

Love it.

[Marcus]

Marcus.

[Brooke]

All right, you're back to back classics for whatever therapy session you're in right now. Start well right now.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, we've heard of a lot of creative ways to cut a date short. Oh yeah, there's the classic emergency phone call from your best friend purposely eating food you're allergic to to give yourself a react action.

[Alexis]

That one person did that. Yeah, I remember that.

[Jeffrey]

Or Alexis's favorite brutal honesty right to their face.

[Alexis]

What has she ever

[Jeffrey]

even just talking about honesty Makes her uncomfortable.

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Alexis]

She's like, I kind of want to leave. He's like, what? She's like, I love you.

[Brooke]

That was actually a replay of one of her dates.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, it must be. But today, one of our listeners was ditched mid date in a more brazen way. And normally those people don't answer their phones when we call them, but with this one, we get answers. Answers I don't think anybody saw coming. You're gonna hear it in a second date update.

[Podcast Announcer]

Next, Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Second date update.

[Jeffrey]

Not sure if you remember this, but a few months ago, one of our listeners named Michael did an awkward Tuesday phone call because he had this female friend who was complaining to him about how lonely she was all the time.

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Jeffrey]

So he wanted to convince his best friend to date her just to get Miss Sad Face out of his hair.

[Brooke]

I do remember this. I can't remember how it turned out,

[Jeffrey]

but I remember it doesn't really matter. I guess we did a good enough job helping him with that situation that Michael now trusts us completely. So much so that almost a year later, he wants us to do a second date update. Michael, it's good to have you back on the show, dude.

[Michael]

Hey, it's great to be back. Thanks for having me.

[Brooke]

How does it feel to, like, lower your standards of advice this low?

[Michael]

Well, I think you guys are gonna help me.

[Alexis]

Oh, okay.

[Jeffrey]

It is our honor and privilege to be able to assist you with your love life today, Michael. So tell us what's going on.

[Michael]

I want you to know that before I started dating, even before I had you guys help me advise with my friend, I was in a long relationship before. Then it ended messy. So I was definitely taking a long break from dating. But now I'm back out there.

[Alexis]

Okay.

[Julianne Moore]

Okay.

[Brooke]

How does it feel?

[Michael]

I feel all right. I mean, I finally got on the apps, but why I need your advice is somebody I met in real life

[Leo]

not on the apps.

[Brooke]

Oh, hey, that's fun. How'd you do that?

[Michael]

Well, her name's Megan, and I met her at the grocery store.

[Alexis]

Dude, that's like, such a stereotype. People say the best place to meet a chick.

[Brooke]

Do they really say, is that the gross?

[Alexis]

Yeah. Well, I don't know why, but they

[Marcus]

say that I stop wearing my AirPods to the grocery store.

[Jeffrey]

It's so romantic at the grocery store. Especially when they have the thunder over by the produce section setting the mood in the rainstorm.

[Brooke]

That's hot.

[Jeffrey]

Dude, the timing was this. How did you meet Megan there?

[Megan]

Just.

[Michael]

We caught Each other's eyes. And then we kept finding each other on almost every aisle.

[Brooke]

Oh, you need bread, too? I needed bread. Okay. That's kind of cute.

[Michael]

Yeah, to the point where, like, she jokingly had to ask me, are you following me? With a smile?

[Alexis]

At least she's joking.

[Brooke]

Well, I mean, I'll tell you, when women say that, it's like joking. But also, we also need to know.

[Jeffrey]

One hand on the pepper spray.

[Alexis]

Yeah.

[Jeffrey]

All right.

[Michael]

You know, I asked her right back, though. Are you following me? And then that started off like a mall conversation. We just talked about what was in our cart, you know?

[Brooke]

Oh, yeah, you're going to make tacos tonight, huh? Yeah.

[Jeffrey]

You guys went deep on that first convo. Oh, my God.

[Megan]

Yeah.

[Michael]

And that led to me asking for her number. I just went for it.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah.

[Michael]

Yeah, I got her number.

[Jeffrey]

Wow. Well, I must make you feel really confident after, like you said, you went through that tough breakup for, like, a year ago. Finally going out into the world and meeting somebody that you connect with instantly.

[Brooke]

What have people been complaining? Complaining about? This is so easy.

[Jeffrey]

Did it lead to an actual date?

[Michael]

It did. Yeah.

[Brooke]

And there was no ghosting involved. Well, except for now.

[Jeffrey]

Look how jaded we all are in this room. Like you really met again. Oh, my God.

[Michael]

Well, you're jumping ahead. There was some ghosting. So. Yeah, I mean, we. We did meet up. I suggested we go out for dinner, like at a restaurant just to get to know her more, but she countered with just like, I don't feel like going out. Can we just watch a movie? And I said, sure. And she suggested my place.

[Alexis]

Suggested your place, bro.

[Brooke]

Is it. Or, I mean, like, are you. Because I feel like it's a good sign for just like a one night hangout situation. It's not a good sign if you're.

[Alexis]

I just meant it's a good sign that she's comfortable enough to come to Europe.

[Jeffrey]

She stole Brooke's line. I think it's a very good sign. So how did it go?

[Michael]

I felt very comfortable and relaxed.

[Leo]

We just.

[Michael]

All we ended up doing was just watching a movie, had a couple of drinks.

[Alexis]

Oh, that's. Wait, you guys didn't fool around?

[Brooke]

That's.

[Michael]

No, it didn't lead to any of that.

[Brooke]

That's okay. It's the first hangout.

[Jeffrey]

Okay. This isn't like Brooke's hangout.

[Brooke]

You're not wrong, Jeff.

[Michael]

So then I thought the night would go a little longer, but she said she had to go and get something from her car real quick. She's like I gotta run to my car real quick. I didn't even think of it. I was having a good time. And that's when she just never came back. Whoa.

[Alexis]

That's a dramatic way to leave. Whoa.

[Brooke]

I feel like that's something Alexis would do. Like, 100%. Doesn't know how to say.

[Jeffrey]

I really would literally dip out.

[Alexis]

Or is this a trail? Like, oh, wait, I left it at home.

[Marcus]

It's same with when you're meeting someone at a second bar, like a restaurant to a bar. It's like, see you there.

[Yasso Advertiser]

Yeah.

[Jeffrey]

It's a little concerning, though. Did you reach out to her afterwards?

[Michael]

Yeah, I was concerned. I'm like, I hope no one snatched her up or something. So I texted. Did I call? I even called the number. I mean, no. No reply for quite a bit. And then she finally got back to me and all. She just sent a text over, and it just said, hey, sorry, it's not going to work out between us. That was it.

[Alexis]

And we're so jaded. You're right, because I think that's polite. I'm like, oh, that's nice of her to. She ditched him into his face.

[Jeffrey]

But it's weird that there's no explanation for why.

[Michael]

Yeah, exactly.

[Jeffrey]

After she invited herself to hang out your apartment.

[Brooke]

But I don't feel like your own explanation after only one hangout, Jeff. Like, yeah, that's.

[Jeffrey]

That's a good point, too.

[Alexis]

It's not like you hung out more.

[Brooke]

That's the thing. Like, oh, but we want it.

[Alexis]

Do you want.

[Brooke]

Do you want to see her again?

[Michael]

I just want to know what was the turnoff? Because I'm confused. Was it my apartment? Was it something I did? I don't know. It just.

[Brooke]

I like that you're blaming yourself. That's a good start.

[Michael]

Okay, this might lead to me being embarrassed. Who cares? Let's find out what I did so I can.

[Jeffrey]

You know, if there's something wrong that you're doing, it's good to know it up ahead of time. So let's come back. We're gonna call Megan for you, Michael. Oh, so weird. Brook's husband and Brooke's best friend's name. Don't think about that when we do our next call here.

[Alexis]

And you took her line.

[Jeffrey]

Second date update, right after this. Hold on.

[Podcast Announcer]

Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Second date update.

[Jeffrey]

It was the comeback after the romantic setback. Followed by a slight drawback.

[Brooke]

Oh, okay.

[Jeffrey]

Because our listener Michael finally got back into the dating game after going through a tough breakup about a year ago.

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Jeffrey]

Didn't find his match online, though. Found her in the grocery store.

[Brooke]

Yes.

[Jeffrey]

Holding two big cantaloupes. That's Jose's dream of how they met. But her name was Megan. And eventually they arranged a little Netflix and chill night back at Michael's apartment, which went really well and was her idea.

[Brooke]

That was her idea. It'd be very important to mention.

[Jeffrey]

Things kind of fell apart, though, when she said she had to grab something from her car and never returned.

[Brooke]

Yeah. I'm wondering if she was hoping for something more that never was materializing.

[Alexis]

Oh, that he didn't pick.

[Brooke]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Marcus]

They watched the whole movie.

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Alexis]

I was like, you guys didn't do anything.

[Jeffrey]

Was the had to grab something from the car thing a lie? Alexis says yes, from experience. But we don't know that.

[Brooke]

Yes, we do. She didn't.

[Jeffrey]

We don't know anything for sure. We do know it's not a good sign. Alexis is still confused on what a lie is.

[Marcus]

She didn't want to be there.

[Michael]

Okay.

[Jeffrey]

That would mean that she lied.

[Brooke]

Yes.

[Jeffrey]

Okay. But again, we don't know. We just know it's not a good sign. Also not a good sign. Megan texted him days later confirming it's not going to work. That's why.

[Leo]

No.

[Brooke]

After all of those things, Jeff, I think it's very.

[Jeffrey]

We need to be impartial people in the middle here. Isn't that right, Michael? You want an impartial audience.

[Michael]

Like, I am very hopeful that I'm going to get something positive out of that. It'll be an easy correction to make.

[Brooke]

I think your positivity is really sweet.

[Michael]

Thanks.

[Jeffrey]

Do you hear the condescending tone in her voice? Yeah.

[Michael]

I'm not hopeful to get another date out of this. It's not like trying to get her back with me. I just want to become better at dating.

[Brooke]

Okay. And that's sweet.

[Alexis]

Yeah.

[Jeffrey]

It really is sweet that you think you can get better.

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Jeffrey]

Okay, well, we're all going to try our best for you here, Michael. Let's call Megan for you and see if she answers and what she has to say. Here we go.

[Leo]

Hello?

[Jeffrey]

Hi, we're looking to talk with Megan.

[Megan]

Speaking.

[Brooke]

Oh, hey, Megan.

[Christy]

Hey. Hello.

[Jeffrey]

You're awfully chipper.

[Alexis]

I'd be so scared if I got a group phone call.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, because I don't know if you realize you're on the radio right now with a show called Brooke and Jeffrey in the Morning.

[Christy]

Are you serious?

[Brooke]

Yes.

[Jeffrey]

Yes.

[Brooke]

Welcome to the show, Megan.

[Christy]

Hi, guys. I guess.

[Alexis]

Thanks for answering.

[Brooke]

Okay.

[Jeffrey]

I don't know how to deal with this positivity on the other end. We don't normally get this.

[Brooke]

We've got two positive people that we've talked to today.

[Jeffrey]

That's true. You don't know this, Megan. But earlier, the other positive person we spoke to was a guy named Michael that you went on a date with.

[Christy]

Are you serious?

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Alexis]

We loved his energy, too.

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Christy]

Oh, my God.

[Brooke]

Oh, my God. You're just freaking out.

[Jeffrey]

You sound excited, but no, that's the word. Well, I don't know.

[Leo]

What.

[Christy]

Okay, wait, you said Michael, like, Michael called you?

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah.

[Brooke]

Well.

[Jeffrey]

Well, because we're doing something called the Second date Update. We're trying to help him figure out if when you two hung out and did Netflix over at his apartment, if something went wrong during that night because,

[Brooke]

well, he knows something went wrong because you left and didn't come back.

[Jeffrey]

Well, we don't know what the. The problem was if it was on your end, if it was something he did.

[Christy]

Oh, my gosh. I cannot believe this is happening.

[Brooke]

Wait, all right, well, we're on a

[Jeffrey]

limited time, so we need to have you believe sooner. So start to believe. You're on the radio now.

[Brooke]

Are you excited to hear Michael's name again?

[Christy]

I don't know if I'd say excited.

[Brooke]

Okay, okay.

[Megan]

Embarrassed.

[Alexis]

Embarrassed for you?

[Christy]

Absolutely. 100%.

[Alexis]

I thought it was hateful.

[Brooke]

What happened.

[Christy]

Okay, I don't even know where to begin.

[Jeffrey]

I. I really don't even know if

[Christy]

I should tell you.

[Brooke]

Oh, my God. No. We love humiliating stories. We are walking embarrassments to everyone that we know, like you are in the right company.

[Jeffrey]

We're really just trying to help out Michael because he's really concerned, feeling like he did something wrong on the date.

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Christy]

So let me just say, I've never done anything like this before.

[Jeffrey]

What do you mean? Alexis says that on the first date, too. A lot, so I know that move. Why didn't you put out there just like this? Oh, I swear.

[Christy]

But seriously, guys, I'm a good person. I promise.

[Jeffrey]

Alexis, what are you talking about?

[Christy]

Okay, so I kind of didn't bump into Michael at the grocery store. Like, not by accident.

[Brooke]

What do you mean?

[Jeffrey]

What?

[Christy]

I don't know if he told you, like, we met in a grocery store or not.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, he said you guys, like, randomly kept bumping into each other kind of multiple times in the store.

[Christy]

Yeah, well, I'm kind of like, I know his ex girlfriend.

[Brooke]

Wait, what?

[Christy]

Yeah, like, we're in a book club together, so, you know, we're girl pals. We chill, we talk, you know, and wait.

[Brooke]

So you saw him in the grocery store by chance or you went there because you knew he was going to be there?

[Christy]

Yeah, I kind of followed him there because.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, why?

[Christy]

She basically was like venting one day and she was like, my ex boyfriend won't give me back my guitar, so my God, one thing leads to the next and. Yeah, so we kind of set up to, you know, run into Michael at the grocery store.

[Brooke]

The whole thing was a setup so you could go in and steal her guitar back.

[Marcus]

He didn't see you leave with the guitar?

[Christy]

I didn't steal anything that's hers.

[Brooke]

Oh, yeah.

[Jeffrey]

At least that's what she says.

[Leo]

Returned it.

[Jeffrey]

Is this what really happens at book club? You don't read any books?

[Brooke]

Yeah, Brooke, you do the book for like 15, 20 minutes, you discuss it,

[Jeffrey]

and then you plot revenge against all of your exes for the rest of the time.

[Brooke]

I mean, if it needs to happen, it needs to happen, Jeff. I mean, she's not getting revenge. She's just trying to get her guitar back. That's different. I have had reconnaissance missions like this myself.

[Jeffrey]

I know that's like another 20 minute long story that we don't need to get into. The important thing that we need to get to here. Megan is letting you know that Michael is actually on the other line right now listening to this conversation.

[Brooke]

It's fine. I mean, it's not like you were ever gonna see him again.

[Jeffrey]

Well, kind of ruins your plan.

[Alexis]

I mean.

[Jeffrey]

What do you mean?

[Brooke]

Didn't she already get the guitar?

[Jeffrey]

Michael, are you hearing this?

[Michael]

Yeah. I do not know what to say right now, Michael.

[Christy]

Oh, my go. I'm so sorry. I really am.

[Jeffrey]

That's what you said.

[Michael]

Unbelievable. Tell me, is the guitar from my house gone?

[Christy]

Yeah, I slipped it outside the door when I went to the bathroom.

[Jeffrey]

That's so. I mean, devious, Cunning.

[Brooke]

Jeffrey is like. Doesn't. You're stunned.

[Jeffrey]

I'm shocked. I didn't see this coming because, I mean, what is the history of the guitar? Whose guitar is it?

[Michael]

It's my exes. Yeah, like, why the hell wouldn't you.

[Jeffrey]

Why are you holding on to it?

[Michael]

It was a gift. I just held on to, you know, it was a messy end. I don't want to get into it at all, but I'm trying to get better.

[Alexis]

You're trying to get better, but when

[Marcus]

you say it's a messy breakup, this makes it a messy breakup.

[Alexis]

You're not helping.

[Brooke]

It sound like you were the issue.

[Jeffrey]

Some women hold like Onto the sweaters from their ex boyfriends and cry. He holds onto his ex girlfriend's guitar

[Brooke]

and cries into it, which is expensive. Go with the dirty old sweatshirt.

[Christy]

I'm sorry, man. She just said, like. Basically you kept making excuses, so I wanted to help her out.

[Brooke]

Oh, yeah.

[Michael]

I. I just didn't want to see her kind of thing. It wasn't really about keeping it out of spite or anything.

[Brooke]

Could have left it somewhere.

[Christy]

I will say. Like, you are a really nice guy. Like, you were really hospitable. You were really cordial. You didn't try anything crazy.

[Jeffrey]

And you're not even mad hearing about this, like, elaborate plan to get the guitar back out from under your nose.

[Michael]

It's more amazing that you pulled it off than. Why would I be angry about that?

[Brooke]

It's amazing you didn't know it was missing.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, well, he doesn't sound like he doesn't play. Yeah, it's more his girlfriend's thing. But is there still, like, was there ever romantic connection between you two? Megan and Michael?

[Brooke]

You're gonna make that happen?

[Jeffrey]

Isn't that the goal of this call?

[Christy]

Sorry, Michael. I'm actually engaged.

[Jeffrey]

So you went out with a guy?

[Alexis]

Does your engaged fiance know about this?

[Michael]

Probably.

[Marcus]

It's kind of a funny story.

[Christy]

Oh, yeah. He knows all about it, and he thinks it's hilarious.

[Alexis]

And, oh, my God, he's in it. It's kind of funny.

[Michael]

I'm happy I didn't make a move, so.

[Alexis]

Yeah.

[Jeffrey]

Okay, well, clearly there's no connection between the two of you. But, Megan, Michael did want to get some dating advice out of this segment. Do you have any that you want to share with him to maybe help him out going forward?

[Christy]

Yeah, Michael, you definitely got to be more aware of your surroundings. And don't bring people to your house.

[Jeffrey]

Okay, That's.

[Marcus]

You didn't notice someone stalked you to a grocery store?

[Jeffrey]

Just assume every girl you meet wants to steal something from you.

[Alexis]

Oh, man.

[Jeffrey]

Wow.

[Brooke]

That is a hard reality.

[Jeffrey]

First date, Michael? Back in the dating world after a year.

[Alexis]

I got robbed.

[Jeffrey]

It's a setup to get your guitar out of your apartment.

[Michael]

Lesson learned here.

[Alexis]

Yeah, you got finesse.

[Christy]

Yeah.

[Jeffrey]

at this point, if you're him, do you trust anybody in the dating world going forward at this point? Or you just go straight to online dating with criminals in prison?

[Alexis]

Oh man.

[Brooke]

I mean, is there trust left in the dating world?

[Alexis]

I don't think even current.

[Brooke]

I mean, I think that he, you know, he was the one last shred of hope that we had.

[Jeffrey]

And.

[Brooke]

Yeah, and that's gone.

[Jeffrey]

But if that happened to me and I met somebody and found out it was all just a. A scam to steal from my apartment, that's where I'd be headed. Felon flings.com I'm logging on and taking the easy way out.

[Alexis]

Look, you're going to steal from me anyway. Might as well just tell me you're crying.

[Jeffrey]

I want to just know.

[Brooke]

I ended that feeling like it was all his fault. He should have returned her stuff.

[Marcus]

It was a lesson.

[Jeffrey]

That for sure was a problem. But it's also not great to like, like create a whole ruse about a romantic date and lead a guy on just to steal from him.

[Brooke]

Well, if he's not giving the guitar back, I say do what you got to do. That's what I say.

[Jeffrey]

Justified according to I think everyone got

[Alexis]

a little something for themselves out of this.

[Brooke]

That's right, Jose.

[Jeffrey]

The good news is he didn't seem devastated by it. He was actually Impressed that they were able to pull it off.

[Alexis]

When he laughed, he was like, well, I mean, I don't even play guitars.

[Brooke]

It's like, why wasn't he giving it back?

[Alexis]

Just pride as an ex.

[Jeffrey]

Something good came of it in the very end. And hopefully we can can bring some positivity to your dating life. If you email us, we'll call that person who's not calling you back and go check out all of our second date updates wherever you get yours at. BrookeandJeffrey.

[Podcast Announcer]

Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.

[Jeffrey]

You can tell a lot about a first date by how you leave things at the very end of the night.

[Brooke]

That is so true.

[Leo]

That's a huge tell.

[Jeffrey]

Did you end it with a tender kiss? Double fist bump maybe? Or possibly a lingering wet willy? Each one of those sends a pretty clear message about where you stand.

[Alexis]

You should be wearing earplugs, ladies.

[Jeffrey]

That's for sure. But what does it mean when you end the night with a multi person group hug?

[Alexis]

Oh, what the. I did not see that.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, it's the reason one of our listeners is so confused after his date ended in maybe the weirdest way possible. But he still does have some interest, so it couldn't have been that bad.

[Brooke]

So it's not like a wet willy.

[Jeffrey]

No, it wasn't that. You'll hear what went down in your second date update right after this.

[Podcast Announcer]

Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning second date update.

[Jeffrey]

We've been doing these calls for a while now and found it's not unusual for a woman to bring one of her friends along with her on a first date.

[Brooke]

Yeah, I mean, it's normally usual. Yeah, normally you tell someone beforehand that

[Marcus]

you're gonna depending where she sits at the place too.

[Jeffrey]

That's the thing. Sometimes they're upfront about it and just very open. Sometimes, though, they keep it a secret where they have them hide somewhere in a nearby booth or inside of a decorative plant, spying with binoculars to make sure everything's kosher.

[Brooke]

I'm sure you won't get noticed then.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah.

[Alexis]

So what's a giant plant doing in this McDonald's?

[Jeffrey]

Why is it moving? So we've definitely heard that before. But is it unusual if the friend that she brings with her is a guy?

[Brooke]

Oh, man.

[Jeffrey]

Because apparently that happened to one of our listeners recently. Leo, is that true your date showed up with another dude?

[Leo]

I. Yeah.

[Brooke]

Oh, wait.

[Michael]

Oh wow.

[Brooke]

That can't. I mean, I have guy best friends, like.

[Marcus]

Yeah, me too.

[Brooke]

You know, that could be fine. Did she tell you beforehand that that was what was going to happen.

[Leo]

No, no, actually, yeah.

[Jeffrey]

And by the way, Brooke has hooked up with almost all of her guy best friends, so I don't know if it's a great thing.

[Brooke]

That's because you got to just try it out and see if that's how you like each other. And then you're like, nah, that didn't work.

[Alexis]

Brooke's like, you're bringing a friend. That's another target.

[Jeffrey]

Okay, run us through how this all happened. Like, start with how you met her.

[Leo]

So, like, I met this girl Christy. I'm in. It's this bike club. It's like a group on Facebook, and it's people get together and we, like, ride every, like, couple weekends.

[Brooke]

And that's cool.

[Leo]

I started talking to her. Yeah, no, it's actually awes. Awesome. And I've met a lot of people, but I met Chrissy and I just really liked her and I asked her out.

[Brooke]

Cute.

[Leo]

Okay.

[Brooke]

What a great way to ask somebody out too. Like, you already have shared interests.

[Leo]

Yeah. No, and she's amazing.

[Jeffrey]

I know.

[Leo]

I was so excited.

[Jeffrey]

Okay.

[Leo]

And I show up and she's there, but she's sitting at the table with this other guy. Oh. And she's like, oh, yeah, this is David. Oh, no official title for David or distinction. Like, not my brother or my friend

[Jeffrey]

or my parole officer or what it

[Alexis]

is legally has to be here.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah.

[Alexis]

How was the vibe like between them? Did you feel like they had chemistry? Did it feel friendly? Did it feel sexual?

[Jeffrey]

Good question.

[Leo]

I mean, they were definitely really comfortable with each other.

[Alexis]

Okay, you may tell then.

[Brooke]

All right, this is my first thought is either she is in a open relationship and thought you maybe knew. Could that be it?

[Leo]

Well, did not get a heads up by any means on that.

[Brooke]

Okay.

[Jeffrey]

Okay.

[Leo]

And, like, don't be wrong. Like, David's a nice guy, but, like, there would be moments where they would just talk with each other or make obviously, like, inside jokes that I stayed for the whole.

[Marcus]

That's what I was gonna ask.

[Leo]

I paid for the dinner.

[Jeffrey]

You paid for their dinner? For Christy and for David, it seemed

[Leo]

like he was just part of the package. And I'm still not sure how to unpack that.

[Alexis]

Okay, that's true. I think I could see why naturally you're like, I'm on a date. I offered to pay, so I'll pay for who.

[Marcus]

Of a guy friend, though, to be okay. Like, why would a guy friend want to sit in on you on a date?

[Alexis]

You know, that's why I feel like they really could be besties.

[Marcus]

Like, my best guy friends would tell me, that's weird.

[Michael]

I get it.

[Leo]

That, like, women want to make sure that there's someone around. And, like, I. I can understand that, but I was just so shocked that it was this guy.

[Jeffrey]

Well, yeah.

[Brooke]

And typically, it's like, you want security. If it's somebody you've never met before, you've already met this person. You meet up with them once a month during a bike club. Like, you should have some rapport.

[Leo]

I think I gave a pretty good impression that I'm not a serial killer, but I respect that boundary.

[Brooke]

So wait, did you ever find out who he was?

[Michael]

No.

[Alexis]

How did the date end?

[Leo]

No.

[Michael]

Okay, so we were there for like

[Leo]

an hour and a half. We did flirt. Like, we all had, like, collective conversation.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, so you were flirting with David too? Not just with Kristen.

[Alexis]

Make her jealous.

[Leo]

I mean, I wasn't gonna be rude, but it was so weird that when I left.

[Michael]

Left?

[Leo]

I. I sort of just almost jokingly like, reached out and gave them both a group hug.

[Brooke]

Oh, wait, you group wait together?

[Leo]

Well, they were going to leave together, so I just hugged them both.

[Alexis]

That's a good one. Wow. I actually like it.

[Leo]

I was like, we should all hang out again sometime. And I don't know why the hell I said that.

[Brooke]

You handle it so well.

[Marcus]

Yeah.

[Alexis]

Because if that is her bestie, then he'll be like, oh, he was a nice guy.

[Jeffrey]

Hugged us both.

[Megan]

Yeah.

[Brooke]

Or you just friend zoned yourself.

[Alexis]

Yeah, maybe that's the risk you take when you're on a triple date you weren't planning on.

[Marcus]

That's true.

[Brooke]

That's true.

[Jeffrey]

So where are we at now with you and Christie?

[Leo]

Oh, yeah.

[Christy]

All right.

[Leo]

So the way I handled that gets me into this situation where I'm the one that's not responding. And she has been calling me and texting me, and they wants to know when we should all hang out together. And I don't know why I said it, but. But now I'm like, I really don't want to hang out with David.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, obviously you give him a hug. Like, you basically let him on.

[Alexis]

She's setting you up with him right now.

[Brooke]

What do you want us to do?

[Leo]

My goal is to have a one on one date with her. That's what I wanted originally, and I don't know if that's even possible anymore.

[Jeffrey]

So you want with our call here for us to surgically remove David from the situation and have it just be a one on one with you and

[Leo]

Chrissy, Cut him out of it.

[Brooke]

Okay. Okay.

[Jeffrey]

In the most respectful way possible. We need to figure out how to convince her to do that.

[Marcus]

David's gotta go.

[Brooke]

I mean, nothing on David.

[Leo]

No, he's a cool dude, but he. I don't want him to hang out. I don't want to date David.

[Jeffrey]

Okay, but he's really handsome though, right?

[Leo]

No comment. Oh, my God.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, God. The more handsome he is, the harder this is gonna be. We're gonna find out when we call Christy and try and get you your second date update. Coming up right after this. Hold on, hold on.

[Podcast Announcer]

Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Second date update.

[Jeffrey]

In the dating world, it can be hard to get just one person wanting to hang out with you. But our listener Leo is a lucky man who has interest from two people at the same time.

[Alexis]

You're kind of framing it weird.

[Brooke]

Let's go.

[Jeffrey]

That's the situation. One is his date, Christy. The other is the rainbow dude that Christy came to the restaurant with that night named David.

[Alexis]

Yeah. We can't even say friend because I guess we didn't get closure on it.

[Jeffrey]

That's the thing we don't know. Is David her friend? Her brother. Her brother lover? Her stepdad? We don't really know. That was never made clear the entire night.

[Marcus]

But David got a free meal.

[Jeffrey]

David did.

[Alexis]

And potentially met the stepdad.

[Jeffrey]

It's possible. The thing is, it's awkward because Christy's been asking if all three of them can hang out together again, but Leo isn't really up for that. He wants to cut David out of the picture.

[Brooke]

Look at that. David.

[Jeffrey]

So that's why he's asked us for help.

[Brooke]

You're not David.

[Jeffrey]

No.

[Brooke]

You're Leo. Sorry.

[Alexis]

David is excited for all this.

[Brooke]

Is why I can't juggle more than

[Alexis]

one at a time. She wants to flirt with both of you.

[Leo]

Yeah.

[Alexis]

You don't seem as.

[Jeffrey]

You didn't even consider the stepdad option, did you?

[Brooke]

I think it's so wild. You went through an entire dinner and you still couldn't figure out how David was connected to your friend Chris Date Christy.

[Leo]

I know. Like, it was awkward and I just didn't know how to play that weird,

[Alexis]

like, so who are you? I kind of get it. You're just going with the flow.

[Marcus]

Avoid conflict.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah.

[Alexis]

Yeah.

[Brooke]

I can't wait to hear how David feels about the group hug.

[Jeffrey]

That's right. They did have the three way hug.

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Jeffrey]

So they're initiated by our boy Leo. Yeah, out of panic. It sounded like more than anything, but

[Leo]

I didn't know what to do. I. I Did panic a little. I. It was weird.

[Alexis]

Group hugs are not a bad thing.

[Brooke]

Yeah, so funny.

[Jeffrey]

I think you handled it okay. Wait for this call, but we're gonna try and help you out. Just to get a date with only Christie. If she's even up for that. I don't know. That might not be her style.

[Brooke]

Is only David an option?

[Alexis]

I don't think he's.

[Michael]

No.

[Leo]

No offense, but no.

[Brooke]

Everybody has their own likes.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, but Christy might take offense, so let's call her and see how she feels about it. Hopefully she picks up. Here we go.

[Megan]

Hello?

[Jeffrey]

Hey, is this Christy?

[Christy]

Yeah.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, hey, Christy.

[Michael]

Hey.

[Jeffrey]

How you doing today? Good morning. You're on a radio show right now called Brooke and Jeffrey in the Morning.

[Michael]

Okay.

[Megan]

Yeah, sorry, I'm confused.

[Brooke]

I know.

[Jeffrey]

It's okay. We're doing a segment right now called the Second Date Update. We're calling on behalf of one of our listeners and friends of the show that you went out with recently named Leo.

[Megan]

Yeah, Leo. I mean, I. I've been texting Leo.

[Jeffrey]

Right. We heard a little bit about your hangout, and I don't know the right way to say this.

[Brooke]

This is different than we normally do.

[Jeffrey]

It is different.

[Brooke]

We know that you're interested in seeing him again.

[Jeffrey]

He said that there's been communication about setting up another hangout between you, Leo, and the other guy that was there that night named David.

[Megan]

It was a. It was a fun night. I mean, it sounds like it.

[Jeffrey]

Totally. There's a little bit of a question mark, though, around, and, you know, basically. What. What's going on?

[Marcus]

It looks like Jeff has to do this.

[Brooke]

Well, it's like, why is it so hard?

[Jeffrey]

Well, it's. We're trying to figure out what the dynamic is between the three of you.

[Christy]

Right. Okay, well, I'll.

[Megan]

I'll explain it. But first, like, do you think there's any way you can, like, help me convince Leo to go out with me again? I mean, I really liked him, and I kind of thought he liked me, too, like.

[Brooke]

Yes.

[Jeffrey]

Well, yes, with you. I don't think we'll have any problem getting him to agree to go out with you.

[Brooke]

Honestly, I think it's, like, sold.

[Jeffrey]

The problem that Leo has is with the David part.

[Megan]

No, no. He has to go out with me and David.

[Brooke]

What?

[Jeffrey]

Yeah.

[Brooke]

What are you guys, like, a package or something?

[Jeffrey]

Why is it so important that it has to be all three of you going out at once?

[Megan]

Actually, it's more than three of us.

[Christy]

There's a fourth.

[Brooke]

What?

[Leo]

Hold on.

[Alexis]

What the heck?

[Brooke]

Wait, wait, there's more.

[Jeffrey]

This is a love square now.

[Marcus]

The guys aren't connected.

[Brooke]

It. Wait, is it. Is it another guy, or is it a girl?

[Megan]

Okay, so it is another guy, but it's not what you think.

[Brooke]

I don't even know what guy.

[Michael]

Yeah, please.

[Alexis]

You got.

[Jeffrey]

You got to clear this up for us, Christy. We're really confused because it has to

[Alexis]

be what we think.

[Megan]

No, no, it really isn't. Okay, so the third guy, the fourth person, he was actually filming secretly. He was filming our date.

[Alexis]

Filming?

[Megan]

Filming in the restaurant, too. He was just at another table, kind of pretending he wasn't doing what he was doing.

[Alexis]

What's the point of that?

[Jeffrey]

Yeah. Why?

[Megan]

Because I am really doing well on TikTok right now, and there's this trend. It's called Two Dates, One Night.

[Brooke]

Two dates, one night.

[Jeffrey]

Two dates, one night. Like a challenge?

[Megan]

Yeah, two date, one night challenge.

[Brooke]

So wait, so you set up a date with David and set up a date with Leo at the same time, all for TikTok Tok?

[Megan]

Yeah, and it's doing really, really well. My video, it's like, it's totally going viral.

[Alexis]

Why don't you guys.

[Brooke]

Why didn't you tell him?

[Megan]

Because then it wouldn't be legit. I mean, everyone would know. A stage.

[Alexis]

Oh, no.

[Jeffrey]

So part of the challenge is going on a date with two guys at the same time and neither of them knows about it?

[Megan]

Yeah, but I'm interested in both.

[Brooke]

I like both.

[Alexis]

So, wait, that means in the comments section, they must be voting for who they like the most. Oh, my God. I kind of into this now.

[Megan]

Exactly. There's so many people voting.

[Brooke]

Ok. Oh, my God. Are you some, like, wizard that you're able to get these two guys to stay that.

[Jeffrey]

Brooke, be careful. Your jealousy is showing.

[Brooke]

I think that's crazy. You must be, like, so lovely and, like, such a personable, charismatic person in order to convince two dudes to hang around.

[Megan]

Well, I don't know about that, but I'm not that looking.

[Brooke]

Oh, my God.

[Marcus]

And everyone had a fun night, they said.

[Michael]

Yeah.

[Jeffrey]

I don't know if Leo's having his much fun, though, listening and hearing all of this, because, Christy, you should know, Leo is on the phone right now.

[Brooke]

She's not even videotaping.

[Marcus]

Jeff.

[Jeffrey]

Well, we're recording this for our podcast.

[Megan]

You know, you just ruined my Tik tok.

[Jeffrey]

Okay, I'm sorry. I apologize for that. But we may post a clip of

[Alexis]

this on our Tik tok.

[Jeffrey]

Leo, man, are you still there?

[Leo]

I'm just trying to process What I just heard, I didn't know what to expect. It was weird to begin with, but this was like. I'm honestly weirdly impressed in a way, but.

[Alexis]

Okay.

[Brooke]

I feel like I went through the same emotions.

[Alexis]

And Brooke said that? Yeah, she's impressed, too.

[Leo]

So this is all a social media thing?

[Megan]

Yes. But I do like you.

[Jeffrey]

She likes that you get her lots of views. Yeah, that's for sure. Social experience.

[Brooke]

I mean, what were you gonna do at the second date with Leo and David again?

[Jeffrey]

Again, like, that's the best thing is to have a part two of your video.

[Brooke]

No, but, like, was that going to be the big reveal? Was that when you were going to tell him?

[Megan]

No, I was going to do a sequel first, obviously.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, yeah, she was going to reveal at the double marriage when they're both on the altar at the same time. By the way, guys, this is all on Tik Tok.

[Brooke]

They still don't know who each other are.

[Alexis]

Who will show up at the wedding. We'll see you when the doors open.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, If I'm Leo, I would quit question whether or not your feelings were valid.

[Megan]

Yeah, that's fair. But we did go on a date. It was a good time. And I do like him.

[Brooke]

Oh, my God. Yeah, but if the tables were turned and you showed up to a dude and he had another girl sitting there.

[Megan]

Well, that's different. I mean, it's different when you're a girl.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, because she's hot, Brooke, remember?

[Alexis]

Yeah, that's probably it.

[Jeffrey]

That voids every other rule in the book. So, Leo, you've been listening here. You've kind of heard what Christie has to say. Do you believe her?

[Leo]

I don't think it's that. I don't believe you. I don't understand

[Michael]

what this is or

[Leo]

why you would do it like you were.

[Jeffrey]

Leo, all of social media is hard to understand why things are the way that they are and why things get popular. It doesn't make any sense.

[Brooke]

This feels like explaining any tick tock trend to Jeff.

[Michael]

Exactly.

[Jeffrey]

It's just crazy and weird and people want to watch. Watch it. So we would like to arrange that second meetup, if you're still open to it.

[Alexis]

Leo, we're only paying for one plate.

[Brooke]

Wait, why are we asking him?

[Jeffrey]

Well, things have changed. Because now that Leo knows more about the whole situation and the motives, I think it's only fair, since he's our listener, to get the okay from him first.

[Brooke]

Oh, for sure. I just can't believe you want to.

[Jeffrey]

Well, let's find out. So Leo, I'm just going to go ahead and ask you. Would you be willing to go out again with Christy? Or Christy and David? Or maybe just David?

[Alexis]

Come on, there's options.

[Brooke]

I mean, there's a lot of different ways you can work a triangle camera guy.

[Marcus]

Don't forget about him.

[Jeffrey]

Is there any interest on the other side?

[Michael]

That's not gonna work.

[Jeffrey]

I.

[Leo]

Not for me. No.

[Brooke]

Okay.

[Michael]

Okay.

[Megan]

Well, I mean, I'm a little disappointed. And. And I don't want this to sound weird. It's kind of awkward, but do you know anyone that looks like you?

[Brooke]

Wait for the video.

[Megan]

It's really doing well.

[Marcus]

You can't trick the Leo fans.

[Leo]

You're crazy. Crazy?

[Michael]

Oh, who does that?

[Megan]

I'm crazy? Yeah, I'll be crazy famous pretty soon. So you missed out.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, man.

[Brooke]

I think famous and infamous are two different things.

[Jeffrey]

Still, Leo, you're gonna look back at this call as the moment that both of your ones got away.

[Brooke]

That doesn't add to it too, right?

[Michael]

I don't know.

[Jeffrey]

I don't know how it works either.

[Jeffrey]

I think exactly. Maybe he appreciates all the fame that he's getting from TikTok.

[Alexis]

I feel like he doesn't know.

[Brooke]

I think he's out there wondering who the hell Leo is.

[Alexis]

Maybe that's possible.

[Jeffrey]

Also, I'm kind of offended that none of us have been involved in a two dates one night TikTok challenge. Where is our invites to be in one?

[Alexis]

[Alexis]

Yeah, you're the culprit.

[Jeffrey]

Oh yeah. I should go check out the for your page and see if I'm on. But look, I understand Leo's stance. It's just sometimes I think you need to put your standards and your self respect to the side.

[Brooke]

Wait, you're saying he should have gone out with them?

[Jeffrey]

In the name of social media infamy, it's a small price to pay.

[Alexis]

Oh yeah, clout.

[Brooke]

Yeah, it says the guy who barely posts a picture of his dog.

[Jeffrey]

Exactly.

[Alexis]

Jeff, you could be famous online right now and you wouldn't know.

[Jeffrey]

I could be famous, but I don't feel like it right now.

[Brooke]

That's what it is.

[Jeffrey]

That's where I stand.

[Brooke]

That's good.

[Jeffrey]

I'll be there one day though.

[Alexis]

Okay.

And you could be in another. A nice throuple or maybe in just like a one on one relationship. If that's what you want.

[Alexis]
