This is the Second Date podcast. Thank you so much for finding us. On a weekend. Yeah, on a weekend. And this is just a little treat. Okay, when it says classic, these are ones that we have dug up from the vault because we have done thousands of second dates. So you maybe probably have not even heard these ones. Some people are always think they're new and we're like, oh, that's a classic. A lot of you guys have binged these, but not everyone is as committed as you and has heard these yet. Totally. It's definitely split 50 50. I mean, no matter what, we just hope that you enjoy this. We've got two back to back to just make sure that you get all your tasks, all your chores done with one pod. Okay, so you can't get your stuff done without us. You know it. That's right. So it all starts right now. I will say there's not much that really rattles brooke anymore. Cuz 400 radio experience, she's seen and done pretty much everything. Oh, man. Say it again, Jeff. She was there when station one started. Yeah, well, that's what she thought till today when she was put in the most dramatic, uncomfortable situation of her entire radio career. You aren't even exaggerating at all. I mean, honestly. Because our listener said, brooke, please, you need to talk to this person for me. And I don't have boundaries, so I didn't say no. And I probably should have. Did Brooke handle it with poise and clarity, class, or did she crumble under the immense pressure? You're going to find out when we do your second date update. Right after this second date update. We've heard of people getting stood up at the start of a date. Yeah, just never showing. It's not cool. No, it's going to feel so bad. I've been stood up at the end of a date. Oh, where night's over. We say goodbye and then they just leave. That's. Oh, you're just standing at the door. So rude. That's the progression of events there. At least linger for a second before you run away. But it's a whole different thing to get stood up while you're still in the middle of a date. I know, but we've honestly had people going to the bathroom and then. Yeah, like you gotta like. But this is different. This isn't like an excuse yourself to the bathroom mid dinner, then slip out the back situation. This one's more personal. Apparently that's what happened to one of Our listeners, Dana, recently. So let's talk to her. Dana, I'm sorry to hear this happen to you. How you doing? I'm not doing well. I'm a little pissed off right now, to be honest. It's understandable. I mean, I don't even really get how whatever you're describing happened. Really? I'm thinking one of those. I'll meet at the second bar. Let's drive separate. See you never. To learn more about what happened on this date, Dana, tell us the situation. So I got stood up on a vacation date. What's a vacation date? Like, you met somebody at a resort, you mean? Not particularly. I had met this guy Sean on one of the apps. I don't know if it was travel mode or. You know, his search options were everywhere. But we connected. Okay. He's super cute. He's athletic. All of us are on the app, just so you know. And then you meet me and you're like, you talk a lot and you're choking. Well, I had high hopes. Okay, good. And honestly, like, we really got along. We were talking a lot. We're even talking on the phone. And after a couple weeks, he said he wanted to fly me to la, which is where he lives. Okay. Now, is that like a green flag for you, or are you worried about that? Have you done it before? I haven't. At first, I was a little scared, but it was also kind of thrilling to me to be flown somewhere, like, kind of felt romantic. I've heard both, like, amazing stories and horror stories. It's a red flag that his entire family is waiting at the airport. I'm just assuming that's how it went. I don't know, though. Yeah. Did you go. Did you get on the plane? Yeah, I took the invitation, but obviously I was feeling nervous. Like, how was I going to go about this? You know, I didn't. I didn't know him. I wasn't going to stay at his house. I was going to ask, did he get you a hotel or did he offer for you to stay at his place? There's two big differences here. Yeah, no, I mean, I set the boundary pretty quickly, and he offered to get me a hotel room. Good. That's a gentleman. I can't wait to hear the movie. We'll see him. So it. It all turned out really well. Okay. Yeah. No, I mean, like, when I finally met him, he looked like his photos. We hung out all day long. He showed me around the city. That's so cute. Yeah. We had a nice dinner, we went dancing. I Felt like it was a really good date. We got along really well. He was really easy to talk to. Like, okay, well, I don't understand then, because at the start you said you were really pissed. Yeah. So how does that emotion come into play? Well, because the next day after this great date, we had plans to go to this really nice lunch place. It's really hard to get into. And I was really excited about it. And that morning I was hanging out, I went down to the pool and I texted him. You know, was just trying to be like, let's speed up early. This place is hard to get into. You know, I don't live here, so I don't know how long it's going to take to get anywhere. And he didn't respond at all? No. No response. Oh, man. Are you like. I would be kind of like, oh, something must have happened. You know what I mean? Like, you wouldn't assume that somebody would fly you all the way out there and then just. Did you? Right? Yeah. Did you ask? Yeah. So I texted him again. There's still no response. I ended up getting an Uber and going to the restaurant. He didn't show up. Oh, my God. And I text him again, like, where is he? And asking him straight up if he's ditching me. And did he ever respond? He responded later that evening and he said, I'm sorry, I've been unresponsive. I've had some devastating news. Oh, God. Did he share? I mean, God, I mean, that's a pretty good excuse. He did not share. Wait a minute. That could be anything. That's too vague. Yeah, like, my favorite sports team loses. I'm devastated. Like, oh, it was a bad. You assume really bad, like someone in the family died or like he got fired or something. Okay, so you immediately believe him as soon as he says devastating news. He gets a free pass for using the word devastating. Yeah, just as, like, vocabulary, bad. He said devastating. Got to be serious, then. You don't give him the benefit of the doubt in that moment. Never, never give men the benefit of the doubt. We will take advantage every time. Okay. I at least would say, well, I hope no one passed away or whatever you're going through. I'm so sorry. I'm here for you. And then he should say something next. Okay, so, yeah, what happened? Yeah, where did the conversation go from there? Well, I didn't hear from him after that, and I just decided to fly. I flew out the next day. Yeah, I mean, what are you going to do? Yeah, I didn't hear from him. And I'm really wondering, like, what in the world happened? You still haven't heard from him? No. And it's really confusing. And this is why I'm pissed, because we had such a great date that it makes no sense that he would just, you know, say there's devastating news, not share with me what it is. And then. Then he stood me up. Yeah. How long ago was this? Oh, this has been two and a half weeks. Oh, that's a long time. Can I ask. You flew into a new city. He met you at the hotel. Did you ever see his house? No, I didn't, but I didn't want to see his house. Just wondering if maybe there's like a second family or. A family. He's married or, you know, like, he also lives in that hotel. Yeah. I mean, there's so much you don't know about this guy. That's a good thinking. I didn't even think about that. I did my preliminary Google search of the person. I didn't find anything about a second family. But, you know, that doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Did you check the local papers about any devastating news that could have been linked back to devastation column? I love that column. Yeah, I don't even know you check the news. Don't worry, it's online. Why don't you Google some devastating information in the Los Angeles area, and when we come back, I don't think a whole lot of bad stuff happens there. But when we come back, we'll try and get you your second date update. Something bad just popped up with the guy who stood you up in the middle of your vacation date right after this. Hold on. Second date update. When a person you're on a date with doesn't contact you for a few days and then finally replies with, sorry, I just received some devastating news, but doesn't elaborate. Yeah. Should that be a red flag? The ladies in the room surprisingly said no. Well, I think you need to hear the personality. 100% believe him. They said men don't lie about devastating news. Benefit of the doubt, Jeff. That was my exact words. Tomato, tomato. You know, so good at listening. Alexis gives him credit just for using a big word with lots of letters. You can't lie if you're saying devastating. Oh, and spelling it all out in a text. Good point, Alexis. Alexis is sending him flowers and flying him to her now. I feel so bad. That's so kind. Bottom line is, Dana was left hanging in the middle of a vacation date where the guy flew her out to la. And now he hasn't even responded to her for two weeks after he just ditched her. Oh, my God. It's wild. I think that he's got a wife and kids. I'm telling you, it's not just devastating news. He would have elaborated days later saying, oh, the devastating news, the kids are still in this house. That would be tragic. So understandably, Dana wants answers here. We're gonna call him. His name is Sean. Right, Dana? Yes. Okay. I just want to make sure we have that correct. And how mad are you? Are you. Because you said you were. Scale of 1 to 10. I'm just wondering at what point you're gonna yell at him. I mean, if we can get him on the phone and I can talk to him, like my time is valuable. I came to a different city to see him. Like, I did him a favor. Days of your life are gone because of him. Yeah. But you got a good story. Yeah. You do it for the plot, probably. Nice insta stories while you were there, too. Yeah. Okay. I mean, LA is fun, so. Yeah. It's not like we got nothing out of this trip, but hopefully we can at least get some resolution for you. Yeah. Assuming he answers the phone. So I'm gonna dial it right now. Yeah. Good luck. All right. They never wish us luck. I know. So sweet. Here we go. Hey. Hello. Hi, is this. Sorry, we're. We're looking for Sean. Is Sean there? No, he's out for a run. Can I take a message for you? Yeah. Well. Well, hold on. We'll. I think we just need to ask. Who's this? Cousin. Yeah. Who. Who's this? Who. Who is this? Are there several of you? What's. Well, we're a radio show. We're called Brooke and Jeffrey in the Morning. Is this Sean's number? Yeah. Did he sign up for something? Are you a family member of Sean's? My God. I mean, you could say that. What do you mean? Like you're a sister. Darn it. I'm his wife. Oh, my. Okay. You sound beautiful. Right. So. Hi, sorry to bother you. We're a radio show. Do you mind if we put you on hold for a second? I mean, okay. I don't have all day. Yeah, sorry. We'll be right back to you. Just hold on. We put her on hold. Yeah. Okay, we got her. Oh, my God. What the heck? All right, so what do we do? To be the truth, I was like, worst case scenario, no offense, Brooke, I thought you were wrong. Oh, my God. Brooke kind of called it here. Not it's not an entire second family. Or maybe it is. A wife is a second. Is the family. There might be kids there, too, but we have at least got a wife. Dana. Dana, how are you feeling? How am I supposed to respond to this? Do you want to tell her, or are you still in on Sean? We don't know. We're just being clear. We have gift cards. No, this is the first time. We will not be offering a second date at the end. Come on. We can't do this. No, this is awful. Yeah, we agree. First of all, I have been cheated on before. And the fact that knowing now that I might be a participant in somebody else's affair. Yeah, it's so infuriating. Do you want to tell her? Do you want to talk to her? Can we do that or. Because I don't want to tell her, unfortunately. It's not surprising, because unfortunately, a lot of guys do end up doing stuff like this. But how do we want to handle this? Because there's really. In my mind, there's three options for us to go here. Number one, we just hang up. We leave it alone. Hands off of it. The coward's way out. Not opposed to it. Number two, you wouldn't be. Number two, have Dana speak to the wife and fill her in on the truth about what's happening. She's got to do it calmly if she's going to do that. Or we go. Option three, My favorite. Have Brooke speak to the wife for Dana. I was going to say Brooke has been dying to let her rage out onto some sort of. Yeah, you do. You're. You're against cheating. Don't you want to help? And when we started the call, you literally asked, when are you going to yell at him? You can do it now. I think that if Brooke can set this up, I speak to her, but I don't want to. I just don't want to come in and. Oh, my God. Okay. That's a good choice. Dana, I feel like this is going to be really emotional for you. So. So it's good to have Brooke, who's notoriously Even Keel, handle this conversation. I am the opposite of even. This is like a marriage. I mean, we're not ruining it. Okay, here's the thing. We are not breaking up this marriage. That man is the one that broke up his marriage. Absolutely. Fine. I'll do it. Oh, she's gonna really. You're gonna really do it? I mean, somebody has to. This woman has to know. Brooklyn, tell her the truth. Come on, Brooke. I got your Back here, he used the excuse. Devastating news. Let's make it a real thing. Yeah, that ruined that word for me forever now. All right, let's punch the wife back up. Okay. Hello? Hello. Hey. Sorry about that. So we are back and actually my co host, Brooke would like to speak with you. I didn't get your name. What's your name? Nikki. Hi, Nikki. It's a pretty name. So you're probably wondering why we're calling, how he got your husband's phone number. Yeah, I'm gonna tell you. Not great news on that front. Okay. Because the reason we have your husband Sean's phone number is because we do a segment on our show called the Second Date Update. Typically very fun segment. Yeah. So typically, people go on a first date, and when they aren't getting a call back from that person, then we call and find out why. Like, what did they do wrong on the date? Oh, they wore a funny hat. I don't want to see him again. Does that make sense, Nikki? Sure. Yeah. Okay. So that's why we got your husband's phone number. We didn't realize he was a husband. Yeah, your husband apparently flew another woman into Los Angeles to take her out for a romantic time. Yeah. Okay. I mean, we trade off weeks, we do stuff with other people. I don't really see how that's any of your business. Oh, my God. Wait, wait, What? Wait, what? Yeah, that's fine. Are you in an open relationship? Yes. Oh, you don't even understand how relieved I am. Oh, my God. Relieved? Oh, my God. I thought. I thought. Nikki, I was giving you the worst news in the whole world and you were going to end your marriage, but it turns out. Wait, you're saying you have an agreement with your husband to, like, just date other people? Yes. Could you pass some? Is that what this is about? Is that all? Oh, could you write down some of how that. How that works to open your marriage? Cuz Brooke might want to know. I am not talking you through this. Can I go? Can you hear my heartbeat over the radio right now? Seems very worked up. I was so nervous. You know, Nikki, thank you so much. We don't want to steal any more of your time. We really appreciate you sharing with us. Have a great day. Okay? Yeah, great, thanks. All right. Tell your husband, Sean, what's up. Yeah, this is one of those the more you know. Yeah, the more you know, it's like you don't want to know, but when you know, you're like, oh, thank goodness. So Nikki's gone. Hey, Dana. Good News? You didn't break up a marriage. You're one of many women my jaw has. I forgot she was still here. Wait, I'm taking it that Sean didn't let you know that he was in an open, open relationship? No. Okay. It seems like really important information that he probably seems like pre date info. I know. It was devastating. He got his weekends mixed up. It wasn't his turn. I'm sure it wasn't part of the the rules that he had to disclose to the other people. He's in a marriage. Anyway, we are running short on time here, Dana. So I would love to ask, would you go on another date with Sean when he comes back from his run? Now you want to take on a date with Brooke or something? We'll pay for it. Absolutely not. How about a girls night? Me? You go out for some cocktails. Okay. I was obligated just to offer. That's just what I have to do. Yeah. You know man, I've never been so relieved at polyamory in my life. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Hey, it's Ryan Seacrest for Albertsons and safeway. Now through June 24th.

And she's totally cool with it. Yeah, I mean, I did not have that on my bingo card. No. You know, but good on her. I think it was more dramatic for Brooke than anyone on the phone. I think the person dating the guy, the husband is probably more stressful. Yeah. I think I got your back. Okay, thank you.

And by the way, while you're at it, go check out all of our second dates, wherever you get your podcasts. Yeah. At Brooke and Jeffrey. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Certain topics in the dating world are just considered taboo. Just don't bring them up because you're playing with fire. Okay. Like religion. Oh, yeah, exes. Your fetish for hot tubbing clowns. Huh? Don't. Don't mention it. That's a second. Even though chances are she'd probably be into it. Yeah, save her not to talk about it. Who doesn't think a clown is hot? Maybe she pull out her big red nose. I'm sure it would go great, but just don't do it. And I've never seen this particular topic mentioned on any do not mention list, but maybe we should add it because one of our listeners spent the entire night talking about it with his date. And our reaction was, yikes. No surprise. He needs our help. In your second date update. Right after this second date update, imagine the one person you had a huge crush on years ago where you were always into them, but nothing happened. Oh, every girl I've ever liked. Fast forward. And what if that old crush from your past suddenly walked back into your life? Oh, my God, that's so exciting. You had your chance. Get out of here. What are you talking about? It's great. Second chances. Okay, you blew your shot the first time and now you get a do over. That's the question. Do you take Jose's approach and say, well, past is past and just approach it as friends or do you take a chance? Dude, I've never not taken a chance. Dump your current spouse and all three of your children, and you. You just go for it. Please don't tell me we have a married person on the phone. You deserve happiness too, Brooke. Always remember that. You're talking about me. And one of our listeners had an accidental run with an old love interest of his, and now he's come to us for some help. His name is Jason. Jason, welcome to the show. Hey, guys. Jason, I'm crossing my fingers that you're single, buddy. I am. All right. Okay. Okay. Off to a good start. That's all I needed to hear. Sadly, we were have probably kept going, but it just makes her conscious. Feel better? So apparently you ran into some sort of old love interest from your past. Tell us about her. Well, it's a. It's a girl that I used to work with. Okay. Her name's Cassie. And, you know, I. I must have asked her out half a dozen times, you know, back when we worked together. You did shoot your shot more than once. Yeah, well, she kind of always acted like she thought I was joking. You know what I mean? Like, she didn't take it seriously. Well, she was probably just doing that to save your feelings, being nice, brother. Maybe it didn't feel good either way. Okay, what was her response? Always? Well, she always would just be like, oh, you're so funny, or, you know, we work together, you know, that sort of thing. And. Well, then she left. Right. She got a different job about seven years ago. And I guess roughly a week ago, I ran into her at Target. It. Okay. I was like, hey, you know. You know, we kind of shared some old inside jokes and caught up, you know? How you doing? I'm surprised you didn't just ask her out right there. Six times. I'm wondering if you're the reason she switched jobs. Yeah, you know, you're getting ahead of me because I did. I did ask her out. Oh, you did? I didn't really mean to even ask her out, like on a date date, because initially she was, like, hesitant, and I was like, let's just go get some drinks, you know, catch up. Just like friends. And we did. And. Okay, did you say just like friends when you proposed to this? Not really. I was like, it's just drinks, all right? Is there a way to make. Make drinks? Just friend. Like, I just want to go out for friend drinks with you. I don't know. I just. I was wondering if that's what he said to Her. When? When he asked her out. Because then obviously we'd know why she isn't friends. Yeah, okay. Right, Right. Well, I kind of did it in the way that, like, it's just as friends. Unless you say yes, and then it's more. You know what I mean? That kind of thing. Okay. Okay. Leave the door open for whatever possibilities happen that night. Night. Right. So she takes me up on it, gives me her number. I get. We get. The day didn't really go all that well. What? Because I was nervous. Oh, you're up in your head. Yeah, yeah, I was so in my head. So, like, the one reference I had of us together, like, knew, was at Target. So I just kept talking about stuff that I found at Target. Oh, God. Well, hold on. Maybe there's some good stuff you found some girls would love if you talked about Target. Yeah, but I'm guessing that he's not going to Target for the time first. Fun stuff men go for, like vitamins and creams. You're so right. I need a plunger. What. What did you find there, Jason? Oh, I mean, I found lots of stuff from household items to cereals that they don't have at my regular grocery store. Like, compelling secret cereals is a hot topic. I love cereal. Back off. That sucks, too, because you've spent seven years going over in your head what you would have done differently, and then your moment comes, and all you can talk about his cereals at Target. Oh, that does sound bad. Target would be happy with that, though. Like, they would consider that a major romantic win. You might be overselling it a little bit. I wouldn't say that. I've spent, like, the last seven years like, constantly thinking about that. Like, when I saw her, it was like, this is perfect. Okay. Okay. Okay. All right. Okay, that's good. I'm glad you added that to me. I don't. I don't think that sounds like a total disaster of a day. It's just one funny moment. Look, she was laughing. She acted like she was interested in what I was saying. So she acted. That's the key word there. Just like he knows he said it. Yeah, just like she laughed at every other joke that he made when he asked her out. Jason, is it possible that she was just, like, pretending to be interested and have more fun than she really was? I don't know. I will say that I was definitely a lot more confident in how well it went before this conversation. We do have that effect on people, so don't look at yourself for that. She gave me the normal laughs and asking questions, even about different stuff. And so I thought she was interested, and I shot her a text message the next day, like, hey, had a lot of fun yesterday. Would you like to hang out again sometime? And she just responded with, that's not how this works. That's not how what works? I don't. Well, I don't know what this is. It's not how this works. Did you ask her what she meant? Yeah, I was like, not how what works? And she just has not responded at all. Yeah, she doesn't want to get into it. She's like, oh, now. She's like, now he's an idiot. Maybe she's like, saying, that's not how this works. Like, this isn't a romantic situation that's developing here, but I hope not. Yeah, we hope. Yeah. Just. Yeah, it depends on how you read it. You could take it different ways. The only way to know is to actually reach out to Cassie. Or she's like, that's not how this works. You need to have a ring, buddy. No, you can't be proper with it. Let's not maybe really with the target, but. Okay. So how. How long has it been? It's been a week. Okay. Okay. That's the right amount of time. Yeah. Let's reach out to her and find out what she means and hopefully get you out on another hot target date with. When we come back to do your second date update right after this second date update. If you go out on a date and text them afterwards, asking them out again, they write back, that's not how this works. What does that mean? No, but when you say it like that, it sounds like a threat. I mean, it's a mystery. Does it mean you texted too soon? Does it mean we're not a remote romantic thing at all? Or does it mean that you need to try harder? Does it mean you need to read the prologue of the Da Vinci Code upside down at exactly noon in the shadow of the Chrysler Building? And the answer will reveal itself to you. How did you figure it out, Jeff? Well, I'm just throwing out a guess there. Yeah, we're hoping to find out because this one's a little bit different. Jason, our listener, has known the girl we're about to call going back years. They used to work together, asked her out many times until she finally said yes the other day at Target. Went out on one date, and afterwards he got that strange, mysterious text. That's not how this works. Yeah, it's interesting because you said you were so nervous but she sounds so confident. Yeah, I mean, I felt like I was doing okay because she was laughing and smiling. And then when she didn't respond, I was. I started. Started questioning everything. Oh, I bet. But you also didn't call it a date. Like she might not know it's a date. Let's get some answers, Jeff. Okay. Get that Da Vinci Code book out. And we're gonna be very, very clear with her. We're gonna say a romantic date. Oh, call him hot. You went out with a hot guy recently? Yes. With lots and lots of kissing in action. I don't think they had any of that. Well, I'm just. I'm just saying for the next one, we're gonna make sure it's very clear that he's not in the front friend zone when we ask out on the second date. I'm sorry, we're going to go. We're going to send you out on a romantic hot date. Don't scare. This sounds more awkward than I was by myself, I guess. Well, you know this show, Jason, you listen. We'll try and dial it back just a little bit, but I'm calling her right now. Hopefully she answers. Here we go. Hello? Hey, we're looking to speak with Cassie. This is her. Hey, sorry I sound weird there. Hi. Hi, Cassie. Good morning. Hi, Cassie. Hey, good morning. Who is that? This is a whole radio show. We're called Brooke and Jeffrey in the Morning. Oh, my gosh. Hi. Hey, wait. Do you know the show? I kind of like what is happening. Well, this is a second date update. We heard that you went out recently to drinks with one of our listeners named Jason. An old. I'm not gonna say that. An old co worker of yours. Yeah, I couldn't read that. I could read it. I think I could read it. But why answer like that? I feel like that's kind of between him and me. Well, he. He is clueless. So I don't think anything is between you and him. Yeah, we. We heard that you guys went out the other day and we just want to know how it went from your perspective. Like, were you excited? You have a good time? I mean, like, I guess like the date was okay, but I just feel like, I don't know, there's just like more of a me and him thing to talk about. What do you mean? What is. Well, I've been like putting it off because I don't really know how to say it to him. Oh my God. Have you had a crush on him for years and you finally want to tell Him? No, there's definitely one thing that you are pinpointing. Trying to be like there's something that he did wrong. I mean, I think he should know. Okay, look, Cassie, I normally don't do this, and we usually find out a little bit more before I tell you that he's on the phone listening. Listening. But he is. What? Yeah, that's how it works. There he is. Hi. What are you doing? I don't know. You just haven't said anything for, like, six days, I guess. So, like, what gives? Why. Why won't you talk to me? I just. I didn't appreciate your text. What was. What was wrong with the text? Did I say something that was offensive? I just asked if you wanted to hang out. It was just a text. Like, Jason, is that really all I am to you? Just the text? No call, not in person, nothing. Just a text. Oh. I mean, I'm sorry. I just. I don't. I don't know. I. I didn't think about going beyond a text. And that's the problem. That's what you're supposed to say. No, you're much more than just a text to me. Yeah, I don't want to be clingy and call you today. It's because I like you too much. Yeah? Yeah. I mean, did you want me to just show up at your house after us not seeing each other for that long? I just thought it would be the proper way because I wasn't sure, you know, if you wanted another date. But, like, I feel like I deserve romance and deserve more than that, so I don't know. Can I ask you again then? Oh. Oh, I like that. I don't know. Can you. Oh, no. Okay, okay. No pressure here, Jason. You got this. Okay, you may want to wait and ask her later, bro. She wants something big. Nope, she wants it now. Just deliver a super romantic question. Go ahead. Do we have music or anything for him? He's got this. I believe. Oh, just let me get it out. Just let me get it out. Cassie, would you like to go out again? What? Jason, don't say it like that. It was a little. I mean, she set you up. She told you exactly what she needed. Romance. Yeah, you should have sang it. Try it again, Jason. More romantic. Okay. Essie, do you want to go out with me again? No. Add some information about why you like her. His voice was deeper there, though. You gotta give him credit for that. Do you hear you, Jason? It's not. Do you want. What is is because I want to. Oh. Oh, okay. That Was cute, but it's. Will you. Is that bad or good? Is this like an English thing where we're getting corrected if I gotta say it exactly with the words that you want? No. Okay. Okay, Good. I don't hear it from your heart. Oh, okay. It is from my heart. Like, I've just. I've done it so many times. I've asked you, like, five times, what do you want from this man? Cassie, he told us that you. He asked you out a dozen, half a dozen times when you worked together, and you turned him down every time. Well, I didn't realize it was such a burden for you to ask me out. Jason, he's not a romantic guy. He didn't phrase that very well. She was this high maintenance. Oh, high maintenance. It's a pretty high maintenance. Can you just please stay out of our business right now? Like, it's not involving you at all? Yeah. You sound like such a pleasure. We're supposed to try a romantic connection. He's like, jason sat. Sounds like a cool dude, you know, like he wants to hang out trying. He's doing all the things. Yeah. Brook, supporting him. Jason, take some of what Brooke said and use that towards Cassie now. Cassie, do you want to go out with me? I want to go out with you a lot. A lot, a lot. I just want to know if you do. That was the best one yet. He put. He put some. Some more into that. And he had emphasized energy. I'm gonna pass. Oh, my God. You had her ask you 12 times just now. If you say no. She just wasn't feeling it. She wasn't feeling it. Like he really, really meant it, and it was from the heart. He said that he's been thinking about her on and off for the last seven years, no matter what she was gonna say. No, what he should have said is, I've been pondering about you deeply and romantically. That sounds creepy. You love me. Yeah, I think I've definitely had enough of you, stranger my love life now. So I'm gonna hang up on you now. Bye. Oh. Oh. That's our only hope. I feel like we should have tried harder to stop her, but I didn't feel like it. She's exhausted. We're getting a lot of texts in at 78592 saying you actually dodged a bullet by not seeing her again. I'd say a whole missile. Can you think maybe you could let it go now? Now? Yeah, Well, I. I definitely don't feel like. I don't think there's anything I can do with that, I. I just. I think that there was no possibility and it would probably would have been better for her to just say no. That sounded like it was from your heart. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, shoot. Should we call her back right now? Okay, call her back. Now you're in the mode. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.
