[Brooke]

Hey, it's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Starting your week with a brand new second date episode. Thanks for being here today. You never know who you're gonna meet. Especially if it's a sexy shoe salesman. Oh yeah, what a team. Better get those toes done before you buy shoes. Next. Just saying. Because one lady definitely met that guy. So we're gonna hear that in just a second. But first comments. Yep. Or okay, prepare for this one. I'm gon warn you, it's a long one.

[Redfin Advertiser]

No, you'll see.

[Brooke]

Hey guys. Ruby from Sydney, Australia. I've been listening for about two years now every morning on my way to work. But two days ago I crashed my car and nearly died while listening to the Sunset Scribbles episode. But after it happened, all I could hear was laughter from all of you while it was blasting from my car and it was so loud I couldn't help but laugh and cry at the same time. It really helped me in that moment. Thank you guys.

[Jeffrey]

Absolutely. Upside down in your car. I'm just going.

[Brooke]

I'm reading this cuz she commented, I'm assuming alive and well and okay, but in a hospital bed in a full cat. Yeah, I don't know. But Ruby, we hope you're okay. We hope you're okay. I always think about that like if I were to ever crash my car and like there was a song playing, would I always associate that song?

[Jeffrey]

I'd probably have a sports radio talk on in the most boring way to my life.

[Brooke]

So hopefully you don't associate us with that now. Yeah.

[Claire]

Yeah.

[Brooke]

All right.

[Jeffrey]

With us.

[Brooke]

I hope you're on those good pain meds.

[Dan]

Okay.

[Claire]

Yeah.

[Brooke]

Ruby, get well and thanks for being here. Your brand new episode starts right now.

[Redfin Advertiser]

Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning second date update.

[Jeffrey]

When you meet someone special, what's the first thing that usually draws you in? Their eyes.

[Brooke]

Oh. Their laugh.

[Jeffrey]

Their hair. Their laughs.

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Jeffrey]

Speak for yourself. No, today it's their feet.

[Brooke]

We're gonna start here. They usually end up here in the end.

[Jeffrey]

I'm not trying to be creepy about it. The reason that I bring it up is because our listener, Claire, says she met a guy that she's interested in at a shoe store.

[Brooke]

Oh, she's like the modern day Cinderella.

[Jeffrey]

Could be. Claire, does it ever go through your mind that shoe stores are the hotspots for all the pervs? It's where they congregate.

[Claire]

No, I don't think so.

[Jeffrey]

Okay. You don't hang out at the shoe stores that I hang out at. So clearly, everybody, shoes.

[Brooke]

I've never had a weird interaction at a shoe store, Jeff, so I think this may be just you.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, I will give you some addresses that will change how you. But okay, maybe this is a different type of shoe place. So tell us about how you met this guy. What's his name, by the way?

[Claire]

Yeah, mine wasn't pervy at all. His name was Dan.

[Dan]

Okay.

[Claire]

Met him while I was basically. He wasn't actually helping me. He was helping this girl that was next to me.

[Brooke]

Actually, he's an employee there.

[Jeffrey]

Or is he just a random guy that goes around helping people?

[Claire]

No, he was super sweet. He actually does work there.

[Jeffrey]

Okay, that's all right.

[Claire]

Like I said, he wasn't helping me directly, but he was helping a woman that was next to me. And every time he would go get her some shoes, he kind of would, like, chat up with me a little bit and, like, be like, oh, those shoes look great. You know, I mean, like.

[Brooke]

I mean, out of all the departments you could work in, it would be the easiest to meet someone in the shoe department because you're just there longer. Like, you're saying, like, you're waiting for other shoes to come back from the back.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, and your shoes are off, so it's not like you can, like, get up and leave.

[Claire]

You're kind of stuck there, you guys. He was really nice. He was like.

[Brooke]

And more than just like, I make commission nice.

[Claire]

Like, I mean, that was the best part. I wasn't his customer. He wasn't making any commission off me.

[Brooke]

Did you make a move?

[Claire]

Yeah. Here's the thing. I went up to go buy my shoes, and I told the girl that was checking me out. I actually gave her my number and said, can you give it to that guy over there? That shoe guy over there? And she did.

[Jeffrey]

Wow.

[Claire]

I thought, you know, why the heck not? I never find anybody in the wild anymore. We see dating apps, you know, What?

[Brooke]

I mean, this is great.

[Jeffrey]

Feet stores are better than Tinder. Now. Who would have thought we'd gotten to that point in life? But we made it. It came full circle.

[Dan]

Jeff.

[Jeffrey]

This is awesome. So did he reach out to you?

[Claire]

He did. He totally reached out to me. And he suggested a Mexican place, A Hole in the Wall. It was really nice.

[Jeffrey]

Nice. Did you get the fajitas? Like, how much attention did you want? Jose wants to ask specifically about the menu. We do know that.

[Brooke]

See, all I wanted to know is how many margaritas she had, because that's going to be.

[Jeffrey]

Was this like a lunch date or, like a happy hour type of date?

[Claire]

It was more of a happy hour.

[Dan]

Okay.

[Jeffrey]

How was the connection between you and Dan?

[Claire]

I thought it ended up being very natural. I was very happy. Like, I left.

[Jeffrey]

Okay, Was that Dan or was that the margaritas, though? That was.

[Brooke]

Why can't it be both?

[Jeffrey]

That's true. But maybe something specific about Dan that happened that made you happy.

[Claire]

It was really playful between us. I felt really good. And at one point, we were feeding each other chips and salsa. So.

[Jeffrey]

Little messy.

[Dan]

Yeah.

[Claire]

But it was kind of sweet. It was really sweet.

[Jeffrey]

That is cute. Okay. That was, like a romantic move.

[Claire]

It was.

[Brooke]

You got to know who started that?

[Jeffrey]

Who's the first person?

[Claire]

I kind of started it. I kind of wanted to, like, show him that I was playful. And he reciprocated.

[Jeffrey]

So you see that in romantic movies where, like, at a certain point they feed each other, like an hors d' oeuvre or something.

[Brooke]

I don't know if I've ever met anyone outside of my toddlers. I really, truly can't think of making

[Jeffrey]

a cake and you put some frosting on your husband's nose and you guys have a frosting fight.

[Brooke]

No, Maybe I'm not romantic enough.

[Jeffrey]

I mean, don't you think it would be nice at our next show dinner if at one point we all just stopped and fed the person to our. Right. Put a sushi roll in the next person's mouth.

[Brooke]

I'm sick. I can't go. Sorry.

[Jeffrey]

Okay, well, just the three of us, then.

[Brooke]

Well, it doesn't matter what we think or do. It's that you liked it, and you think Dan liked it because then he fed you. Right. That's the indicator that he was into it.

[Claire]

He did feed me back. Yeah. It wasn't just me feeding him. Yeah.

[Brooke]

Be careful with sharp tortilla chips.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah. You have a gum or. All right, I mean, this is sounding pretty good. How does the date end?

[Claire]

So Basically, we got to know each other, we talked about our jobs, and then when we left, he walked me to my car, obviously, but he did not try to kiss me, which, you know what I was.

[Sophia Bush]

Brooke's outraged.

[Brooke]

Well, I am. The only reason I say what is you just fed each other. You would think that, like.

[Jeffrey]

But you feed your toddler, you're intimately

[Brooke]

connected in a different type of way. Right?

[Claire]

Yeah, I totally know what you guys are saying, but I was actually okay with it. I don't really like the kiss on the first date.

[Brooke]

All right, yeah, that's read you right. So that's good.

[Jeffrey]

So even if he had gone for the kiss, you would have said no?

[Claire]

60% no.

[Brooke]

Okay, 60%.

[Jeffrey]

All right. So that's how you left it. What's happened since then?

[Claire]

Not a whole lot has happened. I've texted him and he just kind of hearts my text. I'm kind of confused.

[Jeffrey]

Well, it started off so great. I don't. I can't imagine what would have made him not want to kiss you and not want to call you back. So let's try to figure that out for you. Maybe she wore a really ugly pair of shoes on the date.

[Brooke]

Well, I bet he is judgy about shoes. It's a good point.

[Jeffrey]

We'll find out.

[Brooke]

Some people think a shoe says everything about a person.

[Jeffrey]

I don't know who those people are, but we'll find out if your shoes weren't sexy enough when we come back. And do your second date update right after this. Hold on.

[Redfin Advertiser]

Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Second date update.

[Jeffrey]

How does that romantic saying go? Couples who love each other feed each other.

[Brooke]

I've never heard that. Is that something that's hanging in your kitchen?

[Jeffrey]

It should be one of those cute

[Brooke]

little laugh love signs.

[Jeffrey]

Our listener Claire is well on her way to that because on her first hangout with Dan the shoe salesman, they were hand feeding each other chips and salsa at a Mexican restaurant. And you don't do that on a first date unless there's an obvious connection happening. Not to mention the flowing margaritas. Probably. Yeah.

[Brooke]

I mean, I do think we have to send them to an Italian restaurant if they go out again just so they can lady and tramp some spaghetti. Maybe it's kind of their thing.

[Jeffrey]

Or a breadstick. Oh, yeah. There was no kiss at the end of the date. So, Brooke, what's running through your mind? Why wouldn't she be getting the call for date number two here?

[Brooke]

God, it's so hard to know anymore. I mean, how single was this Guy like you met him out in the wild. Did you do any Internet research on him?

[Claire]

I mean, he doesn't really have social

[Jeffrey]

media, so you've already had your hands in each other's mouths at this point. So what could be stopping him from wanting a little bit more of that?

[Brooke]

Why? Is it going in?

[Claire]

Yeah.

[Jeffrey]

At least a finger or two. A finger and a thumb. I gotta get my thumb in there, push it all the way to the back. I don't know how you do it, Claire. Let's just call Dan and we'll see if he picks up and hopefully has some answers for us. You ready?

[Claire]

Thanks, guys. Yeah.

[Dan]

Yeah.

[Jeffrey]

I think she's kind of over us at this point.

[Brooke]

So people by this point in the call regret their decision. Perfect.

[Jeffrey]

We're right on track. Let's dial his number. Here we go.

[Dan]

Hello?

[Jeffrey]

Hey, is this Dan?

[Dan]

Yeah, who's this?

[Jeffrey]

Hey, man. This is a radio show called Brooke and Jeffrey in the Morning. How you doing?

[Claire]

Hey, Dan.

[Brooke]

Hi.

[Jeffrey]

What up, Dan? Good morning, brother.

[Dan]

Okay, why are you calling?

[Jeffrey]

We're calling because we're doing a segment. It's a really popular one called the Second Date Update. Not sure if you're familiar with that.

[Dan]

Okay, so. But why are you calling, though?

[Jeffrey]

So the way that the segment works, the Second Date Update, is we're trying to help out one of our listeners who went out with you recently says she had a really nice time and is confused why there hasn't been a second hang.

[Dan]

Oh, okay.

[Jeffrey]

Okay. So this is a woman named Claire.

[Dan]

Yeah, sure. Of course.

[Jeffrey]

You say, wow.

[Brooke]

Interesting.

[Jeffrey]

So what was your. What was your take on Claire?

[Dan]

Claire's really nice. Claire's really sweet. I had a good time with Claire.

[Brooke]

That's awesome.

[Jeffrey]

I don't know.

[Dan]

It's a bit of a mixed bag for me, really.

[Brooke]

I mean, were you. Were you impressed when she was the one that gave her number to your friend at work?

[Dan]

Yeah. That was nice. You know, that's not something that happens all the time. That made me feel good.

[Jeffrey]

Okay, cute, but you used the term. It was a mixed bag. Usually that's like good and bad.

[Dan]

Well, there's nothing bad. She didn't do anything bad. Let me be clear about that. I'm just a little. A little more of a maybe.

[Jeffrey]

What's making it a maybe and not a definite? Yes.

[Dan]

So, like, when we're walking to the table, I felt someone touch my back.

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Dan]

And she was like, hold on. She adjusted my collar. She just. My shirt collar was a little crooked. Okay.

[Brooke]

I mean, I could see how Some people would be. Because you just met her, Right?

[Dan]

Like, it was fine. I appreciated it. I just. I noted that, like, oh, this person is very comfortable with me right away. And I just, like, you know, we had just met, but it was sweet.

[Brooke]

Okay.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah.

[Brooke]

Okay, so this isn't a bad check yet.

[Dan]

Yeah, none of these are bad chicks. I just don't know how to take it.

[Jeffrey]

You're just noting. Was there anything else?

[Dan]

So we order our food, and they bring the chips and salsa.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, we heard a little bit about the chips and salsa. Tell us about it.

[Dan]

Oh, you did?

[Jeffrey]

We did. She said that you two fed each other.

[Dan]

Yes. Yeah, she fed me, and I fed her back. But mostly Deb was just, like. I thought it was pretty funny.

[Jeffrey]

Okay.

[Brooke]

So again, it's interesting because I would have thought, you know, you're listing these things and you're just noting them, but you're laughing, and you sound like you're remembering the moments fondly.

[Dan]

I'm laughing because when we were finished, she takes her napkin and she wipes a little bit of salsa from the corner of my mouth.

[Jeffrey]

She takes her napkin and wipes your face with it?

[Dan]

Yeah.

[Jeffrey]

What was your take on that?

[Dan]

I was surprised by it. I laughed out loud. I can't remember the last time somebody wiped my face for me.

[Brooke]

Probably your mother did it.

[Jeffrey]

I didn't want to say that.

[Dan]

Okay.

[Jeffrey]

But did she ask, like, hey, you've got something there, or did she just go in for it?

[Dan]

So she, like, said, oh, you got a little something, and just, like, went

[Jeffrey]

and did it as she's doing it? Yeah.

[Brooke]

All right.

[Jeffrey]

You know, it's funny because you can see this kind of person, she's just comfortable with you. She's trying to be kind, but you're crossing a boundary, potentially. Right?

[Dan]

Yeah. It wasn't that boundaries were crossed. It was just that I just wasn't there yet. We were still just getting to know each other.

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Dan]

And then she's, like, putting my napkin on my lap for me.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, geez.

[Brooke]

Well, you don't want a little smothering.

[Jeffrey]

Okay. But you don't want a dirty lap. So I could see why she did

[Brooke]

that, but she cares, you know? Like, she's doing sweet things.

[Dan]

Totally. I get that. And no other girl would ever do that for me or ever has done that for me.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, she stands out. That's sweet. I mean, she's looking out for you. She's watching over you. Even listening in on this phone call. Call to make sure that you're okay. Right now, she's there always.

[Dan]

Oh, that makes sense.

[Brooke]

Really? Does it? You think it fits with everything else?

[Jeffrey]

Because I'm serious.

[Dan]

No, I mean, I just didn't. That she's on the phone. Of course she is. I didn't think about that.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, she's really there, Claire.

[Claire]

I did hear all of it. And you know what? I do like hearing the voice of my dirty little Danny on the phone.

[Dan]

Danny.

[Brooke]

Wait, do you know. Wait, Dan, do you know that. That nickname already?

[Dan]

Yeah, she was using it at the restaurant.

[Jeffrey]

What the heck?

[Bowen Yang]

Dirty Danny.

[Jeffrey]

Is it like a. Like a dirty. Like a sexy thing or is it.

[Dan]

No, it was like when she went to wipe my mouth, she was like, oh, that's my dirty little Danny. And then it just came back throughout the night.

[Brooke]

Oh, she said it in like a turned on tone, though.

[Jeffrey]

Interesting. You know what? There's a lot happening. We should step back from this and let you two talk to each other. So Claire, talk to dirty Dan for you.

[Claire]

You should know that I obviously like you because I don't do that with everyone. And I want to say that I know that I untucked your shirt at one point, but why? Because he ate a little too much. And I could tell

[Jeffrey]

you the little

[Brooke]

big guy that is the un. Like that is.

[Jeffrey]

I like her more.

[Brooke]

Now you untuck it to take the shirt off. I mean, at some point in the date, but not.

[Jeffrey]

But what does Dan think of that?

[Dan]

That was actually. That was funny. What?

[Jeffrey]

You like that?

[Brooke]

If a man came over and unbuttoned my pants because they look all tight after I feel I'm going to tell you, it is not going over.

[Jeffrey]

Somebody shouldn't have had that six slice of pizza. Here we go. Untouch your shirt. Slap your belly. Oh, my God. But you don't sound totally opposed to it.

[Dan]

That's why I was telling you guys. It's like a mixed bag. Like, we do kind of fit in certain ways.

[Jeffrey]

Okay, I do see what you mean. You like being doted on just a tiny bit or you're just thinking, do

[Brooke]

I like this Doted on or mothered? I don't know. But even mothered, I don't do that for my kids.

[Jeffrey]

I know. That's where it crosses the line with this dirty Danny so stuff. It's like right in the middle, you

[Claire]

know, like I told you guys, I want to be married and I want to be a mom one day.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, the instincts. Yeah, the maternal instincts are kicking in early.

[Brooke]

I'm going to tell you post kids, you're going to feel very Differently about also having to mother a man.

[Claire]

I. I guess you're right. I mean, here's the thing. I just truly believe that we do need to spend more time together, Dan. So I guess I'm sorry I untucked your shirt if you didn't like it, but I thought I was being helpful. That's all I'm going to.

[Dan]

Wow.

[Jeffrey]

Claire is just laying it out there, Dan. She really wants to see you again. And if you're willing to give her one more chance, we would pay for that date.

[Brooke]

I will say, I. It does sound like she's hearing you on some of these boundaries.

[Dan]

Totally. And it's on. It's partly on me for not speaking up, but. Claire, I would love to go on another date with you, provided you that you understand that I just, like. I'm a little bit of a slow mover and I'm going to have to, like, get to know somebody a lot more before I just like to. Oh, this is a person for me. Whoa.

[Jeffrey]

Using his big boy voice to lay down boundaries early in the relationship. Claire.

[Claire]

Totally understandable. I just want to let you know I did hold back a little bit on this date. I almost put the straw to your lips for the margarita, and I chose not to

[Brooke]

look at that restraint. Dan.

[Dan]

Hey, you know what? I sense that I saw you go for my drink and then pull away from me.

[Claire]

There you go.

[Jeffrey]

Okay.

[Brooke]

It's gonna be interesting to see where this goes.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah. But it sounds like this is a success. We're gonna send you two out one more time. And Dirty Dan, you're gonna have to behave yourself.

[Brooke]

I don't think she wants him to behave himself. I think that's what gets her excited.

[Claire]

Danny, I'll be watching you.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, God.

[Brooke]

One, two.

[Dan]

I love it. This is funny.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, God.

[Claire]

Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.

Yeah. But I think she's gonna let him know that he does like it. Yeah.

Brooke, you have my full permission at our next show dinner to untuck my shirt. Post dinner. If you feel like I've eaten too much, slap his belly.
