Podcast: iHeartPodcasts

Story #1: The Soulmate Psychic Sketch

Segment Starts: [04:24]

Key Points & Insights

• The Setup:
  Steven (the dater) is frustrated by modern dating apps. Feeling desperate, he pays an online "soulmate psychic" $50 to sketch his ideal partner after a short phone call.
• The Sketch Arrives:
  • Steven is surprised that the resulting sketch is of a very attractive woman.
  • He hangs the photo on his fridge, unsure what else to do with it.

    "I put it on my refrigerator. I didn't know what else to do." —Steven [07:18]

• The Wedding Coincidence:
  • A month later, Steven attends a wedding and meets Zoe, who looks exactly like the psychic's sketch.
  • He builds up the courage, asks her to dance, and feels an instant connection.
  • He teases her with, "I have a surprise for you," and later texts her the soulmate sketch with the caption, "Isn't this crazy? This looks just like you." [08:52]
• The Turn:
  • Zoe replies with "Wow, that's crazy," but the vibe changes. Communication cools off.
  • The hosts joke about whether showing a stranger a psychic's portrait of them is endearing or just plain creepy.
  • Steven acknowledges, "Maybe I shouldn't have sent her the picture." [09:34]

Notable Quotes

• "If you see them out in the world, you could just hold up this photo and be like, shoot, we're soulmates." —Jeffrey [06:04]
• "She said yes. So we're dancing." —Steven [08:12]
• "The caption was, 'Isn't this crazy? This looks just like you.'" —Steven [08:52]
• "Maybe I shouldn't have sent her the picture." —Steven [09:34]

What Really Happened: Zoe's Side of the Story

Segment Starts: [12:59]

• The Call: The hosts call Zoe, who is immediately wary:

  "No, no, thank you." —Zoe [13:37]

• Zoe's Reveal:

  • She explains that after she and Steven met, her mom matched with Steven on a dating app (!), and that this made her uncomfortable:

    "I'm not really up for him wanting to date my mom, so..." —Zoe [14:13]

  • Zoe and her mother are close and share matches.
  • Steven admits he's been “looking for someone older.”

    "I was back on the apps and looking for maybe someone older." —Steven [16:10]

• Zoe's Conclusion:

  • Zoe is unbothered:

    "I can’t just tell my mom who she can and can’t date. …You go enjoy yourself." —Zoe [17:41]

• Steven's Reaction:

  • "She said she's still into me?" —Steven [17:40], showing naive optimism.
  • The hosts riff on the family drama: “We did it! We found the soulmate—it's the mom!" —Jose [17:47]

  "This is so weird." [17:51]

• Jeffrey quips about a potential “stepdad” scenario and Thanksgiving dinners [18:31].
• The cast references real-life celebrity family drama for comic comparison (Miley Cyrus’ family) [21:29].

Story #2: Can I Cut In, Lime?

Segment Starts: [22:02]

Key Points & Insights

• The Setup:
  • Finn, a restaurant server, urgently needs limes for work and cuts in line at a bodega, charming Sienna (an attractive woman) into letting him go ahead by promising her a hookup at his restaurant.
• The Encounter:
  • Sienna takes him up on the promise two days later.
  • Finn comps her a meal, flirts, and as her meal finishes, he gets a co-worker to cover for him so he can walk her to her car—and extends the "date" by grabbing a drink with her at a bar.
• Consequences:
  • While he’s out, his absence during his shift leads to calls from management.
  • Finn is fired after returning to work [27:04].

    "They fired me on the spot." —Finn [27:39]

• The Fallout:
  • Finn tries to contact Sienna, but she ghosts him.
  • He’s left jobless and dateless, reaching out to the show for answers.

Notable Quotes

• "I haven't heard from her. Like, I've been texting her. It's been crickets." —Finn [27:56]
• "I wanted to get a date. That's the thing. I wanted it to be a real date." —Finn [27:22]
• "At least you didn't come back with her to watch you lose your job." —Alexis [27:46]

---

Sienna's Perspective

Segment Starts: [30:45]

• What Happened After:

  • Sienna grew worried when Finn left his own date in a rush due to work calls.
  • She returns to Finn’s workplace the next day, but learns from the manager Finn is “no longer with the restaurant.”

• The Twist:

  • The manager offers her a free drink, they chat, and he asks if things with Finn were serious.
  • Sienna ends up agreeing to a date with the manager and is now seeing him:

    "Yeah, I've actually seen him a couple times since, and it's doing really well." —Sienna [35:11]

  • Finn realizes he's been dumped (and replaced) by his ex-boss.

    "You are dating the guy who fired me." —Finn [35:19]

• Sienna Defends the Manager:

  • She says the manager never spoke badly of Finn.
  • She points out the manager "has the authority" to give out free drinks, so it’s different.
  • Ultimately, she says:

    "He's been super nice… and I can eat there whenever I want." —Sienna [36:46]

• Finn’s Final Thoughts:

  "At least I have my pride and I have my dignity. And I got a really good plan. I got unlimited minutes." —Finn [38:59]

Memorable Banter & Tone

• The cast roasts the irony of Finn’s situation and the manager’s motives.
• Jeffrey: “We are gonna pay for the next date between you and Finn if you agree to see him one more time.” [38:28]
• Sienna declines, referencing free meals from the manager [38:43].
• The team finds dark humor in Finn’s misfortunes, ending on Finn’s reluctant acceptance—and “hope” that’s now firmly medium or lower.

Episode Highlights & Quips

• On Modern Dating Disappointments:

  “You match, it’s going great, and three weeks later someone loses interest and you just never talk again… until you’re 90 and you die alone.” —Jeffrey [04:27]

• On Fate and Coincidence:

  “What if they really are meant to be? That would be the most anticipated second date update ever.” —Jeffrey [21:18]

Welcome to it. You're back to pack classics this Saturday. Thank you for being here. It's Brooke and Jeffrey and you have found our official podcast and we've been trying to give you some more Content over the weekends. And Jake has been doing this great thing he just started last weekend.

[Alexis]

Yep.

[Brooke]

Where he's putting together a long compilation.

[Alexis]

Last week was old Alan phone tap characters.

[Brooke]

Yes. Our phone pranks.

[Announcer]

That we do.

[Brooke]

And we did get some comments on that.

[Alexis]

Yeah, we got. Please keep posting compilations on weekends. More compilations like this.

[Announcer]

What?

[Alexis]

Something on the weekend? Yes, more, more. Well, good news.

[Brooke]

Jake also saw those and got the point.

[Alexis]

Yeah.

[Brooke]

So today we've got a compilation YouTube video right now at Brooke and Jeffrey of Clover.

[Jose]

Yeah.

[Brooke]

And if you don't know who that is, who's Clover? Do you want to describe clover?

[Jose]

Clover is a military ops man. You will totally love him. Well, or he will love you, but

[Brooke]

be frightened of him. Yeah, one or the other. But another prank phone call phone tap compilation today up at Brooke and Jeffrey. So definitely go check that out.

[Zoe]

Yeah.

[Brooke]

And it's all Jose. So let Jose know how much you love him. That's always nice to do in the comments. Your back to back classics start right now.

[Jeffrey]

I'm gonna tell you the number one best thing a guy can do after having a great impromptu date with a really cool girl is after you say goodbye, go home and never speak to her ever again.

[Jose]

Wait.

[Jeffrey]

Just cling to that happy memory and take it with you forever. Quit while you're ahead.

[Jose]

That's what I'm doing wrong, Jeff.

[Finn]

Yeah.

[Jeffrey]

Cause based on our listeners experiences, if you try to do anything else, it is only gonna get worse.

[Kal Penn]

Oh no.

[Jeffrey]

And that happened to the guy in today's second date update. He went home and unfortunately he texted the girl after they hung out. What an idiot.

[Alexis]

How dare he.

[Jeffrey]

And after that one text and everything fell apart. What did he send? I'll tell you, it shocked the entire room when we found out. You're gonna hear it in your second date update right after this.

[Announcer]

Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning Second date update.

[Jeffrey]

I saw something on Instagram recently that basically sums up what I think a lot of our listeners are feeling with the online dating apps. It was a guy who says, I think my favorite part of online dating is, is when you match with someone and you're talking and it's going great and three weeks later someone somewhere loses interest and you just never talk to them again. And you just keep doing that over and over and over until you're 90 and you're single and you die alone.

[Jose]

It's so true.

[Brooke]

What a romantic.

[Jeffrey]

Look, Brooke, aren't you upset that you got married and missed the peak era of dating apps?

[Brooke]

Why did I do that?

[Jeffrey]

Well, we have a guy on the phone who says he also has become pretty frustrated with the online dating experience. His name is Stuff. So, Stephen, welcome to the show, man.

[Steven]

How you doing?

[Brooke]

Yo, you sound down.

[Finn]

Yeah, I am pretty down.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, buddy probably just closed his Tinder app right now before he got on. So it's not going so well for you, huh?

[Steven]

No, I mean, I just can't meet anybody.

[Jose]

Yeah.

[Steven]

Honestly, I was so tired. I did something pretty desperate recently, and

[Finn]

that's kind of why I called.

[Jose]

Oh, you did something desperate?

[Jeffrey]

We like desperate on this show. What did you do?

[Steven]

Well, I saw an ad online. It said soulmate psychic.

[Jose]

Oh, that's a good, catchy phrase.

[Jeffrey]

What does that mean?

[Steven]

For $50, the person was able to

[Finn]

draw your soulmate for you.

[Jose]

Draw?

[Jeffrey]

Oh, that, like a. A sketch of them.

[Jose]

That's actually great because then you can see. Like, when you see them in real life, then you know.

[Alexis]

Why do I feel like they stalk your social media and then draw your ex? That would be so brutal.

[Jeffrey]

But you're right, Jose. If you see them out in the world, you could just hold up this photo and be like, shoot, we're soulmates.

[Jose]

No, Jeff, don't bring a photo around with you. You just know in your head.

[Brooke]

Okay, wait, wait, wait. You all believe that someone can do this?

[Jose]

Well, if it's a psychic, yeah. Brooke's in the you for a living.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah.

[Brooke]

Okay, I'm gonna go with sure.

[Jeffrey]

Brooke already doesn't believe in your soulmate before she even knows anything about it.

[Brooke]

It doesn't sound like he believes in it either.

[Kal Penn]

Well, hold.

[Jeffrey]

We don't even know what the story is. So you actually signed up and did this?

[Steven]

I did this. Twenty minutes later, I get the sketch email to me.

[Brooke]

Oh, it's just. Even over. It's online.

[Steven]

No, no, it was a phone conversation.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, okay.

[Steven]

Talk to.

[Jose]

She draws, right?

[Brooke]

What kind of questions did she ask you?

[Steven]

Well, she was asking me my interest. She was asking me, you know, but

[Jeffrey]

she's not asking for a physical description of your perfect woman. She's trying to get to know you.

[Steven]

Yeah, exactly.

[Jeffrey]

Okay, she's asking you about you, but

[Jose]

then she's drawing the lady of your soul.

[Jeffrey]

What did you think of the picture?

[Steven]

So she's very pretty. That's good.

[Brooke]

Shocking. She didn't draw an ugly person. That is so weird.

[Jeffrey]

Well, that's very lucky for him. I'm sure she draws a lot of ugly people for other people, but what did you do with the photo?

[Steven]

I put it on my refrigerator.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, okay.

[Grainger Rep]

Okay.

[Steven]

I don't know. I didn't know what to do with it.

[Jose]

Yeah, we're going to throw it away.

[Brooke]

I mean, you could put it on your dating app and say, this is what I'm looking for.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, right now you're thinking, brooke.

[Jose]

Okay, you fill in the crack for me.

[Jeffrey]

Well, did anything come of it?

[Steven]

So, like, a month later, I'm at this wedding, and I see a woman there that's like. She looks exactly like the picture.

[Jose]

No way. Really?

[Steven]

Yeah. Whoa.

[Jose]

What'd you do?

[Steven]

Well, first I try not to freak out. I'm like, oh, my God.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, well, now you must feel the pressure on you. So what do you do?

[Steven]

So I build up enough confidence, and I go over there and I ask her to dance.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, Brooke, why aren't you awing yet? This is happening.

[Alexis]

Yes.

[Brooke]

Yes, I am excited for you.

[Jeffrey]

And what did she say when you asked her to dance?

[Steven]

She said yes. So we're dancing.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, my God. It's happening. So now you've opened the door for true love to step through. But the big question is, did you tell her about the soulmate photo that was sent to you?

[Steven]

Well, I told her I have a surprise for you.

[Brooke]

Oh, no.

[Jose]

Oh, my God.

[Jeffrey]

You're going to show her.

[Brooke]

What do you mean you told her that?

[Jose]

Sketchy.

[Steven]

I just couldn't hold it in. It's too weird. It's too coincidental.

[Brooke]

Wait, so that night, we're still at the wedding reception, and you're going to pull out the picture on your phone?

[Steven]

No, I know. I didn't even have a copy of it, honestly.

[Brooke]

Oh, good.

[Steven]

I was like, well, I'll text it to you. I told her, I'll text it to you.

[Jose]

What was her reaction, though? Did she laugh?

[Jeffrey]

I want to know what the caption was when you texted the photo.

[Steven]

The caption was, isn't this crazy? This looks just like you.

[Brooke]

Okay.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, my God.

[Brooke]

How long did it take her to respond to your text?

[Alexis]

Is it bad? My first reaction is, I have a stalker.

[Grainger Rep]

Yeah.

[Jeffrey]

Or are you still waiting for a reply?

[Steven]

Oh, yeah, she responded. She's like, wow, that's crazy. But then it was kind of a different vibe from then on.

[Finn]

She, like, I could tell something changed

[Steven]

now and she wasn't as into me.

[Jose]

Oh, no, maybe you have Android, because that happens and you sent it and it got blurry. Oh, God.

[Brooke]

I knew that.

[Jose]

Brooke, I sent you Green Bubble. She knows.

[Jeffrey]

I don't know.

[Brooke]

I don't think that was it.

[Sean Duffy]

Yeah.

[Jeffrey]

Okay, so looking back on the events that unfolded, do you feel like Maybe you shouldn't have sent her the picture.

[Steven]

Maybe.

[Brooke]

Yeah, he should have just brought her back to his apartment so she could have seen it on the fridge herself.

[Jeffrey]

So at this point, where are you at now?

[Steven]

I mean, what are you gonna do? She woke it back to me. Really? I had to move on from there.

[Jose]

Yeah, don't do what other guys do. Okay, Keep texting.

[Jeffrey]

So did you call the psychic lady again and get. Have a new picture drawn up or.

[Steven]

I'm kind of just back on the apps. I'm like, you know, I'm thinking maybe I need to find out someone older.

[Jose]

But you found her.

[Brooke]

So Wait, wait, wait. Are we gonna call this girl for you?

[Steven]

I mean, yeah. Now? Because it's been a couple months. I need answers here.

[Jose]

Yeah, I mean, you need closure, man.

[Steven]

I know. Anyone would. I need closure.

[Jose]

Absolutely.

[Alexis]

Closure from what?

[Jose]

He met his soulmate Brooke, and she's ghosting him.

[Brooke]

I mean, I've been listening dance for three. Okay?

[Jose]

The best three songs of his life.

[Brooke]

I feel like we're trying to force something here, but I'll be on board.

[Jose]

Let's. Hey, she'll give us answers.

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Jeffrey]

Did we ever get the girl's name, by the way?

[Steven]

Her name is Zoe.

[Jose]

Okay.

[Brooke]

Zoe, the soulmate.

[Jeffrey]

Well, we're gonna come back and call your soulmate Zoe and try and get you your second date update right after this.

[Announcer]

Brooke and Jeffre the morning second date update.

[Jeffrey]

You believe in love at first sight?

[Jose]

Yes, Jeff.

[Discover Credit Card Rep]

What about.

[Jose]

I haven't seen her yet.

[Jeffrey]

Okay, it's a yes from Jose and from the girls. What about love at first sketch?

[Sean Duffy]

No.

[Jeffrey]

Cuz months ago, one of our listeners, Steven, paid a professional psychic to draw him a photo of his future soulmate before he's ever met her. He hung it up on his fridge. And wouldn't you know, just a short while later, he ends up meeting a woman who looks just like that photo when he was at a wedding. Her name was Zoe, and they danced and got to know each other. Everything was on the up and up until he got home and texted her the soulmate sketch picture. Yeah, she really cooled off after that. Yeah, it got me thinking though. Like, how could we help him when we get her on the phone? And maybe we could say that he drew the picture after he met you. Just from memory.

[Finn]

He.

[Jeffrey]

He's a really good artist that. It's not like a soulmate thing.

[Brooke]

I think he just apologizes and says, I didn't.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, that's your answer to everything. The man should apologize for what he did.

[Jose]

Oh, yeah, maybe.

[Alexis]

It's a good photo. It has to be flattering.

[Brooke]

It works. I mean, you can't lie, like, how long is he going to keep up that he's a good artist?

[Jeffrey]

You know, it just came to him in a moment of inspiration.

[Brooke]

You could say.

[Jose]

That's the point. I'm not an artist. It was the heavens that just guided my hand to this beautiful.

[Brooke]

Fine.

[Kia Rep]

Go with it.

[Jeffrey]

Sadly, though, Steven is back on the dating apps now, looking for older women and long distance stuff. Whatever he can get. Because he's so dejected.

[Brooke]

Let's not say that.

[Jeffrey]

But we won't bring that up. I'm just saying his mind is still wondering, though. What about my soulmate Zoe? Isn't that right, Steven?

[Steven]

It's true.

[Jeffrey]

You've never forgotten about her.

[Steven]

Well, I didn't forget because it wasn't that long ago.

[Brooke]

Yeah, but still, a couple months, she could be in a relationship already.

[Jose]

Yeah, that's.

[Brooke]

You know.

[Jose]

Yeah.

[Jeffrey]

Well, I'm glad that we're going in with the positive attitude. Sorry about that.

[Jose]

I promise I will keep trying to be positive.

[Jeffrey]

Nobody in this room is going to believe in love except for me and Jose. So we're going to do our best. Let's call Zoe and see what she has to say.

[Brooke]

The weight of love on your shoulders must be hard.

[Jose]

It is.

[Jeffrey]

It's difficult. Here we go.

[Zoe]

Hello?

[Jeffrey]

Two rings. She answered. I knew it. Zoe, thank you for answering the phone right now. This is Zoe, right?

[Zoe]

Yes.

[Jeffrey]

Okay.

[Brooke]

Did you know that, too?

[Jeffrey]

That was luck on that one. But, Zoe, you're on the radio right now with a show called Brooke and Jeffrey in the Morning.

[Zoe]

Oh.

[Jeffrey]

How you doing?

[Zoe]

I mean, I'm. I'm okay.

[Brooke]

Okay.

[Zoe]

Yeah. Why am I being called right now?

[Jeffrey]

Oh, well, some might say it's fate that brought us to you today, but others would just say it's one of our listeners named Steven who asked us to call you.

[Zoe]

No, no, thank you.

[Jeffrey]

No, wait, hold on.

[Brooke]

Do you remember Stephen?

[Zoe]

No, I'm not. No.

[Jeffrey]

Wow, guys, that picture really worked.

[Steven]

I guess.

[Brooke]

Yeah, well.

[Jeffrey]

So, Zoe. Well, we're doing a segment here called the Second Date Update where we're trying to help Stephen get in touch with you again because it's been a while since you've chatted. Since the wedding.

[Zoe]

Yeah, no, I. There's a reason why we haven't chatted.

[Brooke]

Okay.

[Kia Rep]

Okay.

[Brooke]

Well, do you want to tell us? I mean, it seems like it's very clear why you're not calling him.

[Jose]

I mean, maybe to you, it's clear to him we don't.

[Jeffrey]

We don't know what you're thinking.

[Zoe]

Yeah, I don't think it's clear to him that I'm not really up for him wanting to date my mom, so.

[Brooke]

What?

[Alexis]

Wait.

[Jose]

Yeah, that came out of nowhere.

[Brooke]

Did he hit on your mom at the wedding reception or something?

[Zoe]

As far as I know, he hasn't met my mom, but I don't know if he told you guys.

[Alexis]

We.

[Jose]

Hold on. This is a lot.

[Jeffrey]

What we know is that you guys met at a wedding. You guys danced and had a good time.

[Sean Duffy]

Yeah.

[Jeffrey]

After the wedding, he texted you a photo that looked a lot like you, and then.

[Brooke]

And we thought that was the reason.

[Jose]

Yeah.

[Brooke]

Calling it back. That it freaked you out.

[Zoe]

Yeah, well, I mean, that was creepy anyway, but.

[Brooke]

So where does your mom come into play here?

[Jose]

Yeah. That's weird.

[Zoe]

Yeah. So at the wedding, he said he was surprised that I was single because he thought I was pretty. Whatever. And. Yeah. And I was like, oh, yeah, it's crazy. Even my mom's dating. She's on the apps. Whatever. I just laughed about it.

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Zoe]

And he texted me that photo. Whatever. But after that, my mom matched with him on one of the apps.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, my God. Really?

[Alexis]

Well, your mom tells you her matches?

[Zoe]

Oh, yeah. I mean, my mom and I are fairly close, and she showed me who she matched with.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, Are you thinking that he went and, like, matched with her on purpose?

[Brooke]

I don't know. That it matters.

[Grainger Rep]

Probably.

[Jose]

Yeah.

[Alexis]

Yeah.

[Sienna]

I don't even care how it happened.

[Zoe]

It's just the fact that it happened.

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Jose]

Yeah, that's a great point, Brooke.

[Jeffrey]

Okay, well, we don't know everything about how stuff happened the way that it happened. The only person who has the answers to that would be Stephen.

[Brooke]

Yeah, he may not even know.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, because he didn't mention anything like this when we talked to him. But he is on the other line right now waiting to speak with you, Zoe.

[Zoe]

What?

[Sienna]

What?

[Zoe]

Why? What?

[Jeffrey]

That's how the segment works. Stephen, are you there?

[Steven]

This is awkward. Sorry.

[Brooke]

Yeah. Did you know that you had matched with her mom?

[Steven]

Yeah, I told you guys. I was, like, back on the apps and working for maybe someone older.

[Zoe]

Yeah, you said.

[Sean Duffy]

Yeah.

[Jose]

You didn't say you match with her family member.

[Jeffrey]

You didn't say you went just one generation up.

[Alexis]

Also, why is your mom that young of a dating pool? You should check her account. It's inspirational for the competition.

[Brooke]

Let mom live.

[Jeffrey]

Okay, so you two need to talk about this clearly.

[Zoe]

Dude, what is actually wrong with you? Like, you're gonna. You're Gonna call the station and you're gonna tell them like you're trying to figure out what's wrong. But clearly what's wrong is you're trying to get with my mother after trying to get with me.

[Steven]

We didn't know you were responding to me. You're being kind of cold. I didn't know what to do.

[Zoe]

Yeah, for good reason. Yeah, the first straw was you sending me that creepy picture. Anyway, so obviously I was gonna be standoffish. And then my mom showed me her dating app with you on it.

[Brooke]

Oh, wait. Have you been talking to her mother?

[Steven]

We exchanged the messages.

[Brooke]

Okay, did you send.

[Jeffrey]

Is a date gonna happen between you and Zoe's mom? Is that on the books?

[Steven]

Well, I didn't wanna ruin things with

[Jeffrey]

Zoe, and I. Oh, well, he's prioritizing you, Zoe. Isn't that right?

[Brooke]

Did you send the mom the same picture you sent?

[Steven]

I'm not gonna make that mistake again. No way.

[Brooke]

Okay.

[Jeffrey]

She's learning.

[Steven]

Okay, Stephen?

[Zoe]

I even showed her the picture that you sent her to me, and she still is into you, so you guys can just go have fun.

[Jose]

She's still into it, and she saw the picture.

[Steven]

Wait, she said she's still into me?

[Alexis]

What?

[Zoe]

Yeah. Yeah, you go enjoy yourself.

[Jose]

Oh, guys, we did it. We found the soulmate.

[Finn]

Here's the mom.

[Brooke]

Oh, my God.

[Jose]

Why aren't you cheering with me?

[Brooke]

This is so weird.

[Jeffrey]

So you. You're saying you ship the. With your mom and Steven?

[Zoe]

I mean, I don't know what else I can do. I can't just tell my mom who she can and can't date. So, like, how am I supposed to talk to her about that?

[Jose]

Just leave it alone.

[Brooke]

So at this point, do we offer a double date or.

[Jeffrey]

I don't know. I mean, I'm gonna default to the love expert on the show. Alexis, what do you think that we should do in this situation?

[Alexis]

I mean, it's. I don't.

[Jose]

She doesn't know jack.

[Jeffrey]

That's perfect. Great idea.

[Alexis]

I don't think Zoe wants to sit at dinner with either of them.

[Jeffrey]

Well, she probably should, because soon Steven could be your stepdad. We have to be around a Thanksgiving.

[Alexis]

You need to set boundaries with your mom if you got the same age range.

[Steven]

Okay?

[Brooke]

It's got to be a dib system.

[Jeffrey]

I mean, we. We would normally offer to send Stephen out with Zoe, but I guess Stephen will offer to send you out with Zoe's mom on the first day.

[Brooke]

That is so insulting. I am sorry, Zoe.

[Jeffrey]

Why is that insulting?

[Alexis]

Because that'd be he says that'd be great.

[Jeffrey]

Zoe's already turned him down. He's a free agent. He can date whoever he wants.

[Jose]

Zoe, will you ask your mom for us, please?

[Zoe]

Yeah. No, forget all you guys. I'm sorry. This can't get any worse.

[Finn]

Yeah.

[Jose]

Darn it.

[Brooke]

Actually, I'm actually worried that it can.

[Jose]

Yeah.

[Jeffrey]

Is your grandma still alive? Because you never know.

[Brooke]

Yeah.

Who knew 50 bucks on a soulmate psychic picture could work not once, but twice. Talk about value. Getting your money worth.

[Brooke]

I did not even think about that. It's actually 25 bucks per person.

[Steven]

Yeah.

[Zoe]

At this point.

[Jose]

That's great.

[Brooke]

You could call it a family deal, even family pack.

[Jeffrey]

If you think about it, Zoe was just the breadcrumb that led Steven to his eventual destiny.

[Jose]

Love still prevails.

[Alexis]

The psychic picks big families so that this can happen. She's asking, how many siblings do you have?

[Jeffrey]

Here we go. I mean, what if. I know we're all skeptical, but what if they really are meant to be? With that second date update. Update. Be the most anticipated one we ever did on this show.

[Jose]

Turn this into a movie. We will be a Part of Hollywood.

[Brooke]

Have you guys not been following this? The Miley Cyrus family drama right now?

[Jose]

No.

[Brooke]

Oh, my God. Her mom, Tish, got married to a guy that her younger sister was dating. The whole thing is a hot mess. Those two aren't talking. It doesn't end well. I'm just telling you.

[Jeffrey]

I heard it's a hot, and I like that. It truly is. And we can turn your life hot, too, if you email us for help with your dating life. We'll call that person who's not calling you back. Go and check out all of our second date podcasts, wherever you get yours at. Brooke and Jeffrey.

[Announcer]

Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.

[Jeffrey]

Almost time for your second date. And today, a guy had an impromptu hangout with someone he describes as one of the most beautiful women he'd ever met before.

[Brooke]

That's exciting.

[Jeffrey]

Very. But then his phone rang, and who was on the other line made him literally run off. So now he's trying to save it. You'll hear why he had no choice but to ditch mid hang when we do your second date update right after this.

[Announcer]

Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning second date update.

[Jeffrey]

A guy reached out to us saying he lost his date and his job within 24 hours.

[Alexis]

Yikes.

[Brooke]

That is a tough day.

[Alexis]

Bad day.

[Jeffrey]

And so he needs our help. Specifically, he wants a date with Alexis and a job as our new morning show audio editor. So sorry, editor Ashley, you're out. Found a cheaper replacement here.

[Brooke]

Oh, wait. We're not gonna pay him much.

[Jeffrey]

No, I mean, it's the radio.

[Brooke]

Yeah, I see.

[Jeffrey]

No, I'm just kidding. But apparently Finn. Finn hits the guy's name. He really has had a bad string of luck lately that affected his romantic and his professional life. So let's talk to him about it. Finn, welcome to the show, man.

[Steven]

Hey, y'. All.

[Finn]

How's it going?

[Jeffrey]

Oh, it's going good.

[Brooke]

You weren't fired because you, like, caught with a. Another co worker, a boss or something, right?

[Finn]

No, nothing like this has ever happened to me. Oh, man, it's.

[Steven]

It.

[Finn]

It's ridiculous.

[Steven]

Okay, well.

[Jeffrey]

Okay, well, we're very sorry to hear about your struggles. So why don't you start at the beginning and tell us the story of what happened.

[Finn]

All right. So, well, I was a server at this dope restaurant, and I'm working the bar. Runs out of limes, right?

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Finn]

And so I have to run across the street to this, like, bodega, whatever.

[Brooke]

Yeah, that happens sometimes.

[Finn]

The line is crazy long, and there's only one checkout person.

[Jose]

Oh, yes, that's always like an old person too, with a cart full of

[Alexis]

enough food to feed like a family of 10.

[Finn]

So there's this, like, really attractive woman, and she's at the front and I tell her the story. I'm like, yo, I need to get back to work. Is there any way I can cut in front of you? I just got some limes.

[Jose]

Yeah.

[Finn]

And if you come across the street, I'm gonna hook you up to the restaurant.

[Jose]

Oh, wow, that's a great trade off.

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Jeffrey]

Was she open to that?

[Finn]

Absolutely.

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Jeffrey]

Who would say no?

[Brooke]

I feel like I win the lottery whenever I get hooked up in a

[Jeffrey]

bar, but if I was one of the other customers behind them in line, I would have been like, hey, what about me? You're cutting me too. Do I get free food?

[Finn]

Yeah, I wasn't thinking about them.

[Jose]

Beautiful girl.

[Brooke]

They weren't hot, Jeff.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, yes, I forgot that rule. So she lets you cut in line?

[Finn]

She did.

[Alexis]

And?

[Finn]

And I was like, roll through, I will hook you up. And she showed up like two days later.

[Jose]

Oh, wait, two days later?

[Finn]

Yeah, it was like two days later.

[Jose]

Oh, I thought you were like, yo, come over right now.

[Brooke]

That's what I thought, too.

[Jose]

Open whenever, invite. Okay.

[Finn]

I would be down if she rolled over right then, but it didn't happen.

[Brooke]

Did you recognize her immediately two days later?

[Finn]

Yeah, she was smoking and she sits in like the bar area and I tell the bartender, I'm like, dude, hook her up, like whatever she wants.

[Jeffrey]

However many limes she wants inside of her drink. Give her 20 limes, she deserves it.

[Finn]

Anyway, she's at the bar and I basically comp her meal and I tell the bartender and I'm like, yo, I want to go kick it with her for a second. So, like, cover me because, like, she's leaving and I want to kind of seal the deal. You feel me?

[Jeffrey]

Wow, you're swinging this comp meal situation into a full on date.

[Brooke]

Yeah, but you can't sit down when

[Alexis]

you're in your work uniform too, right?

[Brooke]

Like, you can comp a meal. You can go over to the table and stand up and talk to her. But did you sit down?

[Finn]

No, that's why I had the bartender cover for me so I could like, walk her out.

[Jeffrey]

So this is the girl that we're going to be calling. What's her name?

[Finn]

Sienna.

[Jeffrey]

Okay, Sienna. So you walk her out to like, buy some more time with her. How does that go?

[Finn]

Well, this is where it gets a little complicated. I walk her out and then I was gone a little Maybe too long. Cause, like, walk into a car and then maybe we got a drink. Like.

[Discover Credit Card Rep]

Wait, what?

[Finn]

Anyway, I thought the bartender was covering for me.

[Brooke]

You went to another bar while you're on shift?

[Finn]

Well, I was almost done with my shift. Anyway.

[Jeffrey]

It was his lunch break break. Okay, his second lunch break.

[Brooke]

Yeah, you can't really be calling it ridiculous that you got in trouble for that.

[Finn]

But, dude, my guy at the bar, I cover him. He covers for me. I don't know.

[Jose]

Yeah, I mean, I've worked in bars. Like, usually they do, but if you were gone for, like, an hour or two. Bro, he's got his own section.

[Alexis]

And then if a rush comes.

[Jose]

Yeah, on his own.

[Finn]

There was nobody in there when I left, but, like, when I got back, yeah, it was pretty busy.

[Alexis]

Because you get phased out of work.

[Jose]

Yeah. Then you get that last rush of the night.

[Jeffrey]

Okay, so how did you end up.

[Finn]

End up losing your job because of that? They fired me.

[Jose]

Oh, and you're broke? I mean, just, like, have your back. He snitched on you or what?

[Finn]

No, he just couldn't, like, come up with a story.

[Jose]

Got it. I mean, and it is on you.

[Brooke]

I mean, they're paying you to be on a date. That's kind of. You needed to clock out.

[Finn]

I wanted to get a date. That's the thing. I wanted it to be a real date.

[Jose]

Wait, did you, like, ever kiss her or did you get her number? Like, how did your makeshift date end

[Finn]

before you got fired ended so suddenly? Like, I got her number, and then my restaurant calls me, I have to race back, and then they fire me on the spot.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, wow. They couldn't fire you over the phone. They had to do it in person.

[Brooke]

I think that's probably the right way to do it, Jeff.

[Jose]

Hey, at least you didn't come back with you to watch you lose your job.

[Alexis]

Yeah, true.

[Finn]

I guess so.

[Jeffrey]

But your email said that on top of your job, you also lost a date too. So what happened with Sienna since then, then?

[Finn]

Oh, yeah, I haven't heard from her. Like, I've been texting her. It's been crickets. Like, I have no idea. I mean, I feel like we vibed.

[Steven]

Like, it was, like, a really good

[Finn]

connection or she was just being nice

[Jose]

because you offered her a free drink.

[Brooke]

I know.

[Jose]

Like, sometimes, honestly, we think girls like us and they're just being kind. That was actually more accepting the gift you offered her.

[Sienna]

Yeah.

[Jeffrey]

Now that you don't have the hookup for a free meal anymore, what good are you to her?

[Alexis]

I feel like, maybe she had another date after, that was her pre date drink, you know? And then she's like, all right, maybe

[Brooke]

she's in a relationship. Or maybe she's not even interested in any of it.

[Jeffrey]

Okay, well, let's hope that she's just in a relationship and that this can still work when we come back. Brooke says it's a good thing. Let's try it when we do your second date.

[Jose]

We're kidding.

[Jeffrey]

We'll see what she has to say and get you your second date update right after this.

[Finn]

All right, thanks, guys.

[Announcer]

Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Second date update.

[Jeffrey]

He's lost his job, he's lost his date, but he hasn't lost his cell phone. Cause he's on the phone with us right now.

[Brooke]

That is actually a really good bonus.

[Jeffrey]

Have you thought of that, Finn? Even if you have absolutely nothing, at least you still have your cell phone. And you should be grateful for that.

[Finn]

It sounds like a Liam Neeson film. Like how you.

[Brooke]

I think Liam Neeson's so old, he doesn't know how to use his cell phone.

[Jose]

You should call him like Liam Neeson and just be like, I wouldn't you.

[Grainger Rep]

We will.

[Jeffrey]

We will put you on a date. Now, look, I. I know we ran through a lot of scenarios with you, man, that maybe Sienna, the girl that you met, was just in this for the free meal from you. Or maybe she already has a boyfriend. But here's the thing, is that Sienna gave him her phone number at the end of their meetup. And she wouldn't have done that if she wasn't at least a little bit interested in Finn.

[Alexis]

Or she has a hard time saying no, because that's what I do.

[Finn]

It would have been a fake number.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, exactly, Finn. I mean, that must feel a little bit good. Give you a little bit of hope.

[Finn]

I mean, give me a little hope. I don't know. I don't know.

[Brooke]

I think the hope is that she looks at this phone call from us as like a grand romantic gesture and she falls instantly in love with you because of the effort that you put in.

[Finn]

Yeah, I love where your head's at.

[Jeffrey]

Well, it's not over index on the hope. And that she loves everything and falls in love with all of us and

[Jose]

then already loves us.

[Grainger Rep]

Yeah.

[Brooke]

I was on the Hope Train with you, Jeff. Silver lining it hard.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, it's a little too hard. Let's pump the brakes on it.

[Finn]

I'm on Hope Train. I'm on the Hope Train.

[Jeffrey]

Okay, Hope Train just has a few stops. It doesn't have an express right now. We need a medium level of hope.

[Brooke]

All right.

[Jeffrey]

Something manageable for this. I'm just going to call Sienna. Hopefully she picks up.

[Jose]

Hopefully only medium.

[Jeffrey]

Medium hope that she picks up. Okay, here we go.

[Zoe]

Hello?

[Jeffrey]

Hi, is this Sienna?

[Sienna]

Yes, this is her.

[Announcer]

Okay.

[Jeffrey]

Hey, Sienna. You're on a radio show right now. We're called Brooke and Jeffrey in the Morning.

[Brooke]

Hey, Sienna, thanks for answering your phone.

[Sienna]

You're welcome.

[Zoe]

Can I help you with something?

[Jeffrey]

This is a segment that we do. It's called a Second Date Update, which is where if you go out with somebody and then that person doesn't call you back, we can help try to figure out what went wrong. And today we're trying to help out a listener of ours named Finn.

[Sienna]

Oh, yeah. Okay. Yeah.

[Brooke]

Well, you remember him. I'm actually surprised. Like, it was a pretty brief meeting that you had with him.

[Sienna]

Yeah, yeah, it was.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah. A brief meeting across several days. He.

[Steven]

He.

[Jeffrey]

He told us about when you met at the grocery store in line and you let him cut and then you ended up getting a meal at his restaurant.

[Sienna]

Yeah, that was really nice of him to do.

[Brooke]

I was surprised you waited two days to go back to the restaurant. So obviously you were thinking about that interaction with him or you ran out of food.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, whatever it was, we're trying to help him figure out what happened because he told us you two went out actually from the restaurant and grabbed a drink somewhere. He had to rush back and he hasn't heard from you since.

[Sienna]

Yeah, I was really worried about him after he left because he seemed really nervous about all the calls that he was getting from his work.

[Alexis]

Yeah, more than one. Oh, no.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, God.

[Sienna]

Yeah, when he looked at his phone, he saw that he had some missed calls from work and he finally got on the phone. He just seemed really nervous and. And then he had to leave, like, really abruptly. And I didn't hear from him that night, so I ended up going back to his work the next day, like, just to check on him, to pop in and say hi and.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, yeah, well, that was. That was sweet of you to go check on him. Yeah.

[Zoe]

What was that?

[Alexis]

Like, wasn't working that day.

[Zoe]

No.

[Sienna]

So I asked the manager about him and he just told me that he's no longer with the restaurant and he couldn't elaborate on why for quote unquote, like, professional reasons.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, really?

[Brooke]

Oh, wow. He must have found a better job.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah.

[Zoe]

Yeah.

[Jose]

Improvement.

[Jeffrey]

Okay, well, that doesn't explain why you wouldn't be, like, answering any of his texts or Calls, if anything, you probably should have reached out and figured out where he's at.

[Finn]

Right?

[Brooke]

I know I would have called him immediately at the restaurant when I was told that.

[Jose]

Right.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah.

[Sienna]

Okay, well, then what happened is the manager asked if I wanted a complimentary drink on the house.

[Steven]

House.

[Brooke]

Oh, no.

[Sienna]

So I ended up sitting at the bar with the manager.

[Brooke]

Wait, you and the manager sat together at the bar?

[Jose]

What?

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, the manager.

[Steven]

Oh, my God.

[Brooke]

So he wasn't. He had an ulterior motive is what you're saying, with his complimentary drink.

[Jeffrey]

Okay, managers buy me free drinks at the bar all the time.

[Jose]

That's really good.

[Jeffrey]

Okay.

[Jose]

Yeah.

[Jeffrey]

And then we meet up in the bathroom later. What's the big deal?

[Sienna]

No, he was just being a nice person. And, you know, I. I came in there looking for Finn, and I was worried about him, so he just.

[Zoe]

Just.

[Sienna]

You gave me a free drink, so

[Alexis]

I thought, yeah, love more girlfriends. Yeah, that's what they always want.

[Jose]

Totally.

[Brooke]

Restaurant managers. Totally notorious for being really nice people.

[Jeffrey]

Okay, you guys are sounding really skeptical and hateful over there about the restaurant industry, and I don't appreciate it, so I'm sorry to interrupt you there, Sienna. Keep going. You were talking to this sweet, comforting manager who was worried about you and your feelings for Finn.

[Steven]

Yeah.

[Brooke]

And wanted nothing else from you.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah.

[Sienna]

Okay. So then he asked if things were serious between me and Finn.

[Brooke]

There it is.

[Jeffrey]

Well, yeah, he's worried about you.

[Brooke]

And what did you say?

[Jose]

He's gauging?

[Sienna]

Well, I told him that we had just met the other day.

[Grainger Rep]

Okay.

[Brooke]

Okay.

[Sienna]

And then the manager asked me out on a date.

[Alexis]

Of course he did.

[Jose]

Oh.

[Jeffrey]

We're all shy to continue the consoling process because clearly she needs a lot of therapy.

[Jose]

Well, you need a second drink. Let's do that some other time.

[Brooke]

Were you interested in a date with this guy?

[Sienna]

I mean, obviously not. When I walked in, like, I was looking for Finn, but Finn wasn't there. And I had only gone out with him kind of that one time when he left really suddenly. So, you know, the manager was cute, so I was like, sure.

[Jose]

I mean, you're not like.

[Brooke]

Okay, so wait, have you gone on the date already with the manager?

[Sienna]

Yeah, I've actually seen him a couple times since, and it's doing really well.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, no, hold on.

[Brooke]

That is insult to injury.

[Finn]

You are dating the guy that fired me.

[Zoe]

Oh.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, no,

[Jose]

That's a moment.

[Jeffrey]

Hold on there. Yeah, sorry, Sienna, that's Finn. He's been quietly listening on the other line.

[Finn]

I couldn't keep quiet. I couldn't keep quiet.

[Sienna]

Really? I know you were fired.

[Finn]

He fired me for doing the same

[Steven]

thing that he did.

[Finn]

Oh, my. Like, I can't even.

[Jeffrey]

Okay, Finn, we can tell that you're very upset, obviously.

[Finn]

Just calm down.

[Jeffrey]

No worries. Just. Just take a breath. I know this is. Is a lot for you to process.

[Brooke]

Ironic that he's fired for going on a date while on the clock. And the manager did the same thing.

[Jose]

Hey, you just gotta be the manager.

[Finn]

Is that irony?

[Steven]

That.

[Finn]

Is that the definition of irony?

[Jeffrey]

The manager didn't leave the premises in order to do the date.

[Jose]

Hey, your own bar.

[Finn]

Sure.

[Jeffrey]

So, Sienna, do you want to talk to Finn here? I know he's been waiting to talk to you, so maybe just speak directly to him.

[Sienna]

Hi, Finn.

[Steven]

Hey.

[Sienna]

First of all, I did not know you were fired. He just said that you weren't there for professional reasons.

[Jose]

Because he let him go.

[Sienna]

Well, yeah, I didn't, so I didn't know you were fired, so I'm so sorry. But two, like, giving free drinks thing, like, he is a manager and he has the authority to do that, and it sounds like you didn't, so, I mean, he probably shouldn't be doing that.

[Jose]

Wow.

[Sienna]

What?

[Jeffrey]

She's siding with the manager on this one? Finn, wow.

[Sienna]

He's just super nice and he takes care of me and, like, I can eat there whenever I want.

[Finn]

Honestly, Matt is a. You know, I know I'm on radio. I'm not gonna swear, but he is not a good guy. He is a piece of. You know. What, like, bamboozled you. He is lying to you. He's not a good person.

[Sienna]

That's really weird that you would say all of that about him because he only has nice things to say about you.

[Jose]

He misses you.

[Jeffrey]

That guy that I fired is. Is really just a sweetheart.

[Brooke]

I mean, honestly, the manager never outed. Finn is getting fired is a pretty.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, I mean, Finn, your manager was protecting your image to Sienna, sure.

[Sean Duffy]

Yeah.

[Sienna]

All I can tell you, Finn is like, he's been super nice. He's been super respectful, and he didn't and hasn't run out in the middle of our date like you did.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, that is true. You did go running back to your

[Finn]

job and then got fired from him.

[Jeffrey]

I know, man. It's a hard lesson to learn. But these are the moments in our lives that we look back on. We're like, you know, I do. I choose happiness with a woman or happiness at work.

[Jose]

If you really look back, if you would have just stalked the limes, this never would have happened.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah.

[Brooke]

Honestly, Finn, you haven't given her a good reason why she'd choose you over him.

[Finn]

Because I'm a good guy and he's not.

[Sienna]

Okay, well, he is employed and you're not.

[Brooke]

Yet.

[Jeffrey]

But here's something that Finn does have working for him. We are gonna pay for the next date between you and Finn if you agree to see him one more time.

[Brooke]

And he won't be on the clock. Because he doesn't have a clock to be on.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah. So you can have brunch, lunch, dinner, dessert, whatever.

[Alexis]

His schedule's open.

[Discover Credit Card Rep]

Yeah.

[Jeffrey]

All for you, Sienna. If you say yes,

[Sienna]

I can already get some free meals, so I think I'm okay.

[Finn]

From your manager guy?

[Jose]

At this point.

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Jeffrey]

Okay, well.

[Brooke]

Sorry.

[Steven]

Shoot.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah. Finn.

[Finn]

Nah, you don't have to apologize. At least I have my pride and I have my dignity.

[Brooke]

Do you?

[Finn]

And I got a really good plan. I got a really good plan. I got unlimited minutes.

[Jose]

Okay.

[Brooke]

Okay.

[Jose]

Don't flex too hard, bro.

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Jeffrey]

In your face, Sienna, Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.

[Jeffrey]

Okay, so we started with Finn losing his job and his date, and we ended with still no job or date for him.

[Brooke]

Yeah, but even worse, the manager took the date.

[Discover Credit Card Rep]

Yeah.

[Jeffrey]

But hey, we did get him some closure.

[Jose]

How very much so.

[Jeffrey]

So that he knew what happened with Sienna. And that is all thanks to us. We did that.

[Brooke]

I think he would have been less bitter if he had not known the answer.

[Jeffrey]

But knowledge is power and we gave him that knowledge. So let's congratulate ourselves. And I'd like to go around the room and offer all of us a lunch date with each other. And the station will pay for it. What do you say, Brooke? Are you in?

[Brooke]

Well, if the station's paid, I'm always.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, Jose.

[Jose]

Yeah.

[Jeffrey]

Alexis.

[Brooke]

Yep.

[Jeffrey]

Awesome.

[Kal Penn]

All right.

[Jeffrey]

I've got planes already, so it's a no for me, but you three enjoy that Sizzler.

Actually probably will more if you're not gonna be.

[Jeffrey]
