Dad, I'm broke and I need a place to stay until I figure out what the rest of my life looks a couple of days when his daughter moves back in. The last time you walked out that door, you looked back at me and gave me a double bird. I was 18. The double bird was how I ended all our conversations. The wheels come off and we try to talk to each other like rational adults. If you watch the news lately, that's not a thing anymore. Series premiere Wednesday, 8, 7 Central on ABC and stream on Hulu.

Listen to Questlove supreme on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcast. Second date update. I feel like this gets brought up a lot. After you match with someone online, how long should you wait before meeting up with them? Two to three hours. Two to three minutes. I feel like people typically talk, like, a week or two. Hey, I'm at your window right now. Can you open it? I'll climb right in. I brought over some special juice for Rush to split. No, that sounds sketchy. I don't see any red flags. Chef's had a weird app. Yeah, what app is that? I'm not gonna matching people. Don't make me the weird one here. I'm just saying. The woman on the phone apparently isn't quite as eager as some of us because she waited much, much longer than two hours to meet up with her guy. Her name is Gail. Gail. Welcome to the show, Gail. Three hours. Hi. How long did you wait before you met up with the guy from online? Yeah, I mean, we chatted on and off for, like, a month before we actually went out. Why a month? I mean, is that, like, something you typically do? I guess. I mean, we didn't, like, chat every day, and I had, like, some work stuff going on, and I feel like it took them a while to ask me out. Oh, and after you talk for a month, is there a lot of anxiety going into that first meeting? Because you've. You've invested quite a bit of time at that point? Yeah, I mean, a little, but I was more excited. Yeah, that's what the special juice is for that I mentioned earlier. Keep you loose, relaxed. I think a lot of people know what you mean, because also, the longer you talk, the more you have gotten to know each other and form chemistry. So it's kind of both. I would be worried that I'd run out of things to say when I finally met him, because I've already covered everything. I mean, what do you talk about with a guy for a month? I don't know, like, what we're doing, TV shows, we're watching, stuff going on at work. Yeah. Ooh, work drama. The weird thing he kept, like, bringing up. He kept saying, like, oh, my, you seem so mature for your age. Huh? Like, he said it, like, three separate occasions. Is that a compliment or a diss? I don't know. I mean, it depends on how old you are. Are you, like, 21 or 25? Okay. Okay. So I could kind of see that. Yeah. I mean, 25, you could go either way for sure. Is he an older gu. Is that why? Yeah. What did he mean by that? No, he's, like, a couple years older. I mean, I don't know. Maybe it's the way I talk or, like, I use correct grammar. I don't know. I don't like. Or maybe the fact your name is Gail. Well, there's that, too. Okay, so it sounds to me like he meant it as a compliment. I mean, I guess. And then at one point, he asked me how old I really was with, like, a smiley face, like, as if I was lying on my profile or something. I don't know. I thought it was kind of rude. Oh, yeah. It could be weird, a joke, though, where, you know, tell me the real age. Make you laugh. I don't know. Yeah, because he's looking at your pictures. Like. I mean, it's all based on photos. Like, I'd be like, thank you. No. Well, no. They'd been talking a few weeks, though, so they have that familiarity. What did you say to him? I said, you'll have to meet me to find out. That's playful. Yeah. Was it right after, like, the conversation about your high cholesterol? Is that why you were old? So what did you end up doing for your date? So, yeah, we made plans to get dinner, and because I'm hilarious, I decided to show up in an old lady costume. Wait, what? Just to troll him for asking how old you were. You went in full costume, the whole thing? I got a white wig. I wore this, like, flowery dress. Did you get a Whopper or something? I had a cane. A cane? No way. That is hilarious. What did Jonathan think when you showed up looking like that? He was, like, finishing a conversation on the phone, and he, like, looked confused as to why. Like, I was approaching him, and, you know, I. I committed to the bit, and I was like, oh, hello, Jonathan, this is Gail. That's amazing. I absolutely love it. What was his reaction? I mean, he freaked out, and then I, like, immediately, like, took off the wig and was laughing, was like, this is a joke. I'm just kidding. I poke fun at you. Turns out I'm a little older. Than I said online. That's really funny, actually. Did he laugh so much once he, like, figured out it was actually me? He was. He was like, okay, this is funny. And we joked about it. I like, ordered a prune juice to be funny. Oh, you just kept it going. Can I get a prune bag? I think that was kind of funny at first that you don't want to over commit to being the old lady. Do they have, like a regular outfit on underneath? I was gonna say it's not very hot. Yeah, I had like a cute dress on and they were at the pancake house at 4:00. Really going in on it. I mean, other than that, was there anything weird or awkward that happened while you were at the restaurant? I mean, conversation was good. I did kind of slip up a couple times and I accidentally called him my ex's name. Yikes. Oh, so mine are still. What's your ex's name? Jared. Oh, that's. I could see that. Two Js. Yeah. Yeah. My ex name is Jonathan. You didn't know that that was my ex's name? He just like corrected me and was like. No, it's Jonathan. I'm like, oh, I'm so sorry. I don't know why. Oh, that was. That's a good cover though, that you didn't delve into. Oh, I keep calling getting someone's name wrong multiple times. That's so rude. I think a lot of people would think, like, oh, she must be going on a lot of dates then. If I'm just like, which one are you? Yeah, but isn't that, like competition for guys? Like, oh, a lot of people want. Maybe some guys. I would probably just cry. Guys, give her a break. She's a senior citizen. So how did you end things with Jonathan that night? I mean, we had a good day. There was a little kiss. Did you take your teeth out before the kiss or. I don't know. We've been like, talking, but it's more like friendly. And he hasn't asked me out again. Okay, so I don't know how he's feeling. I mean. Well, we can find out exactly how he's feeling. Oh, that's a good point. Yep. By using this old timey landline that we have in studio. Dial the numbers, Jeffrey. We're gonna do the rotodial on this one. And we're gonna get your second date update right after this. Thank you. We said right after this. Don't fall asleep now. Coming up next, second date. We gotta knock out this second date quick so we can make it over to the community room and watch People's Court. Oh, I've seen this episode before. Judge. Judge Wobner's gonna give it to him this time. That'll teach you to jaywalk and throw him in the slammer. Okay, old man. Alex, sit down. It is 8am about. So we gotta get out of here. Oh, it's almost nap Dang. Bring it up. Because our listener, Gail, who is 25 years old, by the way, decided to prank her date Jonathan by showing up to dinner dressed as a little old granny. Why did she do that? Because he kept saying she seemed so mature during their online chats and even asked, how old are you, really? And so decided to prank him with the old lady costume. And the date went really well, minus the part where she called him her ex's name a couple times, but they still shared a cute kiss at the end. I didn't hear cute kiss. I just heard kiss. I don't know. What was it, Gail, what was the kiss? It was a little kiss. A little. A little? Okay, everything looked to me as cute. Like a little mwah. Yeah, like as tightly puckered lips as you can get. Okay, maybe that's not sexy. Maybe that's more grandma style. Okay, maybe that's the problem. Maybe you leaned a little bit too hard into the grandma thing and it kind of turned him off. Yeah, you're gonna have to go with pigtails next time in a schoolgirl outfit. I mean, what do you think? Gail? I really have no idea why. And I just. If it is, like, if you, like, snooped around and, like, found out that my ex was Jared, I just would want a chance to explain myself and apologize. Because you didn't tell him that it was your ex's name? Yeah, no, but, you know, I. I really don't know. That would make me feel like you're not over. Not a good. Well, let's ask him what the real deal was. I'm gonna call his number right now and we're gonna do it. That's how I say it on the radio. That's Radio Professional talk. Let's do this. I'm dialing his number right now. Hello? Hey, is this Jonathan? Yeah, who is this? I don't believe you that you're Jonathan now. I can't believe you didn't go in with the old man voice. I thought for sure that we were gonna hear Alan Winterbottom. What old man? What's up? Actually, who's this? What did you say? There it is. It's not A love. You happy now, Brooke? I am. Anyway. How you doing, Jonathan? I'm a little confused, but I'm good. Yeah, me too. No, we're doing something with you right now, Jonathan. You're on Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning on a second date update. I don't. Those words mean nothing to me. I don't know what you're talking. What you're talking about. Honestly, I don't really know what I'm talking about either. But a radio show, and we're on a task, right? I'm on the radio right now. Yeah. Cool. Say hello to the six listeners we have. Hey. Hey. They say hi back. Trust me. Anyway, we're trying to get some help for one of our listeners named Gail, who you went out on a date with recently. Yeah, yeah, I remember Gail. Okay. Yeah, she sounds pretty funny. Did you think she was fun? Yeah, you know, it was a. It was a cute date, you know. I mean. Yeah, I like her. She's. She's cool. Oh, that's good. Good. We did hear about your date because she told us that you went to a restaurant and she was dressed up as an old grandma. She told you that? Yeah, it was funny. We all laughed. It was hilarious. Yeah, it was. It was definitely interesting. Oh, you didn't. You didn't like the joke? It's not that I didn't like it. I kind of don't know how to tell her. This is gonna. I'm just gonna come out. This is gonna sound weird. I think she understands that something odd is going on because she told us you guys haven't really reconnected very much after the date happened. Right. Like, it's more. It felt like it moved into the friend zone, she said. And so she's ready to hear whatever the reason is for that, but she'd just like to get a little closure or maybe fix it. I can definitely offer closure. Okay. But after the date, something changed. What do you mean? Well, I. Okay, I got in my car and I was driving home, and all of a sudden I couldn't help but realize that I was more attracted to her as the grandma. Oh, what? Wait, when she was dressed up? Yeah. And I didn't know how. I didn't know how to feel about it. Yeah, it just. It just did something for me. What about it was more attractive to you? I don't know. I don't know. It just. It unlocks something, I guess. I think it was. There's something about the way her voice. I don't know. Fake grandma voice. I like the maturity. I liked the prune juice. I don't know, it was. It just seemed like. It just seemed like she knew what she was doing. And I found that really hot. I've heard of Big D energy, but not Big G energy. Big Grandma energy. You're into that? It's not so much the grandma thing. It's just like the older woman stuff. I mean, like a woman in charge. A woman who just makes decisions. Yeah, makes decisions, tells me what to do. You know, hearing Brooke talk to you right now, she'll tell you what to do. That's kind of a grandma's sweater. It is definitely hand stitched. Okay. Is that a gray hair, bro? I don't have gray hair, Alexis. I don't know. It makes me feel taken care of. Okay, well, she sounds like a confident woman. It doesn't sound like you should shut the door on it. Yeah, but there's more. After the date, I went back online and I've been talking to more mature women. Oh, you changed the age filter. I bumped it. I bumped it up a little. Oh, God. I mean, no judgment, but I'm just. I'm trying to think of how Gale must feel hearing all of this right now. Well, I was hoping you all would tell. Wait. Oh, what do you mean? Yeah, yeah, what do I mean? I mean, Gale's actually on the other line right now listening. Oh, Gale. Yeah. Hey. Hi, Jonathan. Yeah, it sounds like you guys have a lot to talk about here. Look, I mean, you're cool and all, but I'm. There's something that date just made me realize I want someone older. I'm just confused and kind of shocked. I don't really have to say, like, you want. You want someone like, 50 years older than you. Like, is that why you kept. Oh, exactly 50 would be great. Wait, 50 years older or exactly 50 years? Exactly 50 years old. Okay. Okay. That's the sweet spot for him. I mean, again, it is a good age for women. I'm not there. It is a good age for women. Some of the people I'm talking to online are amazing. What about the woman you're talking to on the phone line right now? Gail, you're. Oh, Gail, you're great. It's not like I don't. It's not like I don't like you. It's just I'm. I don't see us in a. In a relationship. He wants to be with someone who can't have pregnancy scares. Some women get pregnant at 50. It's possible he knows his back. I'd love to hear what you're thinking right now. I mean, I guess I'm kind of, like, offended that you thought I was more attractive when I had a wig on and glasses. It's not that I'm not attracted to you, Gail. It's just like, you're too young for me. He's like, two years older than her. Never heard that ever on the show. Oh, my gosh. I guess I'm glad I could assist in you figuring out your stuff. Yeah, there you go. That was a very mature thing of you to say, a 25 year old. Yeah, I am mature. I'm excited to see you turn into the mature woman. I'm gonna stop you right there before it goes any farther, but I am gonna ask kind of a weird question. Would you be interested in going out with Gale one more time if she dressed up as the old lady again? I don't know that Gail has volunteered for that. Just the voice would be good. Gail, how about you give him a little flavor? Right now? I don't think it's going to work out. Kind of did it for me, too. Is it getting hot in here or what? Okay, so you're feeling what I'm feeling that now I'm getting hot flashes. Premium Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Well, if this is a trend, I think it bodes very well for somebody in this room. Who? Alexis. Now your mom will be hit on by more of your boyfriends. Please don't think my mom is 25. We should have hooked Jonathan up with Alexis's mom. It would have been perfect. It's always good to hear, though. It's. It's nothing you did. I mean, honestly, the only thing she could have done to fix it was just to wait. Wait till she got old or, you know, invented a time machine and aged herself by 30 years and then gone back like opposite of Botox. Inject yourself with wrinkles. But yeah, really no chance for her in that one. Nothing she could have done was but a big self discovery for him. Yeah, she helped him. Something good did come out of this. And if you ever want to get a second date update, you can always email the show. We'll help you out. And if you want to catch up on all of our second dates, they're up on our podcast.
