Episode Overview

This episode centers around Dennis, a listener who went on a first date with Taylor after connecting on a dating app. The unique twist? Dennis used AI (ChatGPT) both to spark conversation on the date and to follow up afterwards—with a custom, AI-generated country song. Taylor ghosted him, and the hosts (Brooke, Jeffrey, Matt, and Alexis) dig into what happened, trying to get Dennis answers and maybe even a second chance. The episode explores the awkward digital-age intersection of technology, modern dating, and authenticity.

Key Discussion Points and Insights

1. Introducing Dennis and His AI Reliance

• Dennis met Taylor on a dating app and admits to using ChatGPT to write parts of his profile and generate conversation topics for the date.
  • Quote:
    • Brooke (05:07): “It’s interesting because you sound like a real charismatic guy that you would be that reliant on this.”
• Dennis says he’s shy and used AI as a “conversation safety net.”
  • Dennis (06:13): “Well, I get a little shy around girls. Women.”

2. The Date: Real-Life Chemistry vs. Digital Assistance

• Their actual date involved dinner and a moonlit walk.
• Dennis used his phone a couple of times to pull up AI-generated conversation prompts, but he tried to be discreet.
  • Jeffrey (06:40): “Only if you got stuck? There was a lull?”
• He decided to go in for a hug, not a kiss, after Taylor awkwardly swatted at a bug—he wasn’t sure if it was a signal to stop.
  • Dennis (08:00): “She kind of snatched or swatted a bug out of the air… is that a sign for me not to?”

3. The AI Song: "Taylor, Where’d Ya Go?"

• Post-date, Dennis tried to reignite the spark by sending an AI-generated country song summarizing their evening and his feelings. He shares the file with the show:

  • Lyrics sample (09:40):
    • “Talked about our families, you even know my mom’s name / You said you loved my playlist playing country in the rain / Then we walked beneath the moonlight, it felt like a movie scene / So Taylor, where’d you go? What does this radio silence mean?”

• Hosts’ reactions:

  • Humor and skepticism. Some found it catchy, but Brooke found it maybe “a little much” for just one date.
    • Brooke (09:03): “It’s like giving a collage picture book after the first date. It’s just a little too quick, too soon.”

4. Calling Taylor: The Confrontation

• The team dials Taylor to get her side.
  • Taylor (13:44): “There’s somewhat of a smile on your face… maybe an awkward feeling.”
• Taylor says she felt more chemistry over text than in person and found Dennis’s follow-ups creative but a little weird and off-putting.
  • Taylor (14:49): “I kind of felt like maybe we had more of a connection over the phone… I’m looking for something more in person.”
• Taylor didn’t outright hate the AI song but thought it was “weird.”
  • Taylor (15:22): “I’m saying creativity points, but I didn’t find it a little weird.”

5. Dennis Confronts Taylor, Fumbles with AI

• Dennis, nervous, attempts to charm Taylor with lines that seem like AI prompts. The hosts and Taylor pick up on his awkwardness.

  • Dennis (16:55): “Things were all… but then we can turn it to on.”
  • Brooke (16:59): “That is the stupidest line. Dennis, don’t read that.”

• Taylor asks for more authenticity and questions Dennis’s over-reliance on AI for everything—from his profile to his conversations.

  • Taylor (18:01): “Is your profile all AI then?”

• She says she wants “real, one-on-one interactions with another human”—not with AI assistance.

6. Aftermath: No Second Date

• The hosts offer to pay for another date if Taylor gives Dennis a second chance—this time, promising he’ll talk only as himself.

• Taylor gently but firmly declines.

  • Taylor (19:50): “Listen, I’m not feeling the art here… I think I’m gonna go. This feels a little ridiculous.”

• The hosts encourage Dennis to rely less on AI and instead trust his own personality.

  • Brooke (19:57): “Just be yourself. You don’t need to rely on artificial intelligence.”

Summary

This episode showcases a modern tech dating faux pas: Dennis leans so hard on AI to communicate and impress that he loses the human element Taylor was seeking. While his AI song is quirky and innovative, it ultimately fails to connect. Taylor values in-person chemistry and authenticity, declining a second date even after Dennis’s explanations. The hosts, through humor and gentle guidance, encourage listeners to put away the prompts sometimes, showing that in love, human connection still trumps algorithmic assistance.

---

For fans of real, awkward romance—and anyone wondering if using ChatGPT is the secret to dating success—this episode is a funny, insightful cautionary tale.

[Brooke]

Hey, welcome to in a brand new episode on your second date update podcast. Thanks for being here. And I'm sure Alexis has something to say about all of the birthday wishes she got yesterday. Oh, yeah.

[Alexis]

That was really nice of you guys. Thank you. I love feeling so lovely at the same time, like, stop too much, you know?

[Brooke]

But anyways, compliments are not.

[Alexis]

Yeah, that's the way to describe it.

[Brooke]

Yes, Alexis, you're stupid. That's better.

[Alexis]

Thank you. What a gift. But more about the blind love is we did yesterday.

[Brooke]

Oh, my God. And the guy who wanted to do one with Brad says, oh, of course it's a Brad. Do you know his name? Because you guys have been texting.

[Alexis]

I know his name because I'm reading the comments right now and I thought I made it pretty clear during the break. The vibe. Okay, but I don't know why the comments aren't really getting the vibe we got. I hope she gives Brad a chance. He wouldn't shoot his shot if he didn't think there was a chance.

[Dennis]

Yeah.

[Alexis]

Or I think Alexis likes him. Or Alexis. I feel the chemistry there and I'm like, are you people being for real? I feel like I can't even.

[Jeffrey]

So can I just make an assumption? These are all men. We're not good at reading vibes.

[Alexis]

Maybe that's why when the server is

[Jeffrey]

like, hi, guys, having a good day? They're like, she's hitting on.

[Alexis]

Yeah, you're right.

[Jeffrey]

So I will just make a blanket statement and say, those are probably all guys misreading.

[Alexis]

You're right. I'm going to go look for the female comments.

[Matt Rogers]

Yeah, see, my take was that they were rage baiting you and you completely fell for exos.

[Alexis]

You got me, everybody.

[Matt Rogers]

You got trolled.

[Brooke]

Either way, it's not good. No, it's not good. All right, let's get to your brand new episode. Starting right now.

[Second Date Update Announcer]

Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Second date update.

[Matt Rogers]

We've heard of people using chat GPT to write their dating profiles for them. People photoshopping themselves with the help of AI looking taller and skinnier and ooh, even my wallet looks fatter. Thanks, AI.

[Brooke]

Please tell me for the first time ever, we're actually getting AI on the phone because they couldn't get a Second date?

[Jeffrey]

Oh, please.

[Matt Rogers]

We're not quite there yet. But how would you use AI after a date to help you get a call back, huh? Well, apparently our listener Dennis figured out a creative way that didn't really work because he needs our help. So I guess we'll get to that in a minute. But first, we do have to get a little bit more information out of him. So first, Dennis, welcome to the show.

[Dennis]

Hey, thanks. Thanks for having me.

[Brooke]

Did you type into Chat GPT what to say back to us just then?

[Matt Rogers]

Are you that reliant?

[Jeffrey]

It's just listening.

[Dennis]

No, that was me. That was all me. Oh, wow.

[Matt Rogers]

Good for you, Dennis. Well, you must be pretty desperate if you're going to AI before coming to us. But tell us about this girl that you want us to call today and how you met her.

[Dennis]

All right, well, I met Taylor on a dating app. We bonded over my Chat GBT script that I wrote. It was really good.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, really good. Like, she knew it was Chat GPT or just in general. She loved your bio.

[Dennis]

I didn't ask her. I don't know. I mean, she was just getting along. It was working.

[Matt Rogers]

So did you meet up for a date irl?

[Dennis]

We met up for a date. We did. We had dinner.

[Matt Rogers]

Now the pressure's on you to come up with your own questions and talk to her directly. How did that go?

[Dennis]

Well, I mean, I only use ChatGPT a couple times, you know, during my day to look down at the screen. I don't think she noticed, though.

[Brooke]

What were you looking for, though? Like, were you looking for, like, cool question prompts or something?

[Alexis]

Notice you typing a prompt Conversation?

[Dennis]

Yeah, Things to ask and talk about. Oh, how.

[Matt Rogers]

How do I compliment her sparkly eyes again without saying the same thing?

[Brooke]

I mean, it's interesting because you sound like a real charismatic guy that you would be that reliant on this.

[Dennis]

Well, I get a little shy around girls. Women.

[Jeffrey]

Got it. Yeah, I understand that.

[Matt Rogers]

So what did you and ChatGPT talk to Taylor about?

[Brooke]

I like how it's. We know.

[Matt Rogers]

Yeah.

[Brooke]

Two of them on a date.

[Matt Rogers]

What the two of you come up with?

[Dennis]

Well, you just gave me some great surface talk, and we talked about family and stuff. Family Also, I wasn't using it the whole time. I would kind of gauge the conversation and figure out where to go, you know?

[Jeffrey]

Okay, so, like, only if you got stuck. There was a lull.

[Brooke]

I'll say. I don't know about using it during it, but I don't think it's bad to come up with a list of like, five questions to get you out of a awkward moment in a date. I think that's being prepared.

[Dennis]

Exactly. And it was ChatGPT that reminded me that I have an older sister and she does too.

[Matt Rogers]

You didn't remember that you had a sister?

[Dennis]

Well, I mean, it just reminded me to bring it up, the connection.

[Jeffrey]

It's like, AI Brownie points.

[Dennis]

And we're both close to her older sister, so that was nice. You know, we bonded over. She loves country music like I do. I mean, listen, I. I've been on a lot of dates, and there was a lot of sharing and a lot of laughing on this date between us, and it just really felt great.

[Brooke]

What did ChatGPT tell you to do at the end? Did it tell you to go in for a kiss?

[Dennis]

It suggested maybe to go for a walk.

[Brooke]

I didn't know we were actually still going to ask him what to do. I was. That was kind of a joke to get a kiss.

[Matt Rogers]

Well, that could be romantic. How did the walk go?

[Dennis]

We're underneath the moonlight. I mean, it was just really pretty and beautiful. I mean, I was just feeling so good, and then I was like, you know, wow, should I go in for the kiss? You know, I was like, did ChatGPT

[Matt Rogers]

think it was a good idea?

[Brooke]

Do. You're not writing still at this point? Please tell me.

[Dennis]

No, I'm not. I'm not on my phone at this time.

[Brooke]

Oh, my God.

[Matt Rogers]

Okay, so you're. You're making the decision to go in for the kiss?

[Dennis]

Yeah. Well, I was going to, but right before I was gonna do it, she kind of, like, snatched or swatted like a bug out of the air, and I was like, is that a sign

[Brooke]

for me not to, like, she was swatting you away?

[Alexis]

Go.

[Brooke]

Shoot.

[Dennis]

Yeah, I wasn't sure, so I just went in for the hug at the end.

[Brooke]

Okay, I think that's fine. Was there any talk about future hangouts?

[Dennis]

Other than her texting me that she got home safely? It's been silence from her since then. It's been like three days.

[Matt Rogers]

That is weird. Now, going back to what we were saying earlier about using AI after the date to help get you reconnected. You came up with a way to do that? What did you do?

[Dennis]

I did. I thought it'd be really creative if I had AI help me make, like, a 30 second song about our date and then send it to her. Oh, yeah.

[Jeffrey]

You can make music on AI?

[Matt Rogers]

An AI generated song?

[Brooke]

Yeah.

[Matt Rogers]

Brooke, you're wincing right now at the thought of it. Why?

[Brooke]

It's like giving a collage picture book after the first date. It's just a little too quick, too soon. I know it didn't take much effort, but.

[Dennis]

Well, I. I thought the song was great.

[Matt Rogers]

Oh, well, you did?

[Brooke]

Yeah. Maybe we'll play it later. I'd love to hear it.

[Dennis]

Oh, my God.

[Matt Rogers]

You know, well, he actually sent us the song.

[Dennis]

Yeah, I said I sent you guys a song.

[Matt Rogers]

Is it cool if we played it right now so that you can hear it?

[Dennis]

Yeah, absolutely.

[Matt Rogers]

Okay.

[Brooke]

Oh my gosh.

[Matt Rogers]

We're load it up. Here's the a generated song he created called Taylor, where'd you go?

[Brooke]

Oh, oh, wait. That's what we titled it.

[Matt Rogers]

That's what he titled it.

[Brooke]

I thought it was a reflection of what a fun night he had.

[Matt Rogers]

Well, let's listen. I haven't heard

[Second Date Update Announcer]

talked about our families. You even know my mom's name. You said you loved my playlist playing country in the rain. Then we walked beneath the moonlight. It felt like a movie scene. So Taylor, where'd you go? What does this radio silence mean?

[Jeffrey]

Is that the new Taylor Swift?

[Brooke]

No, it was a sad song.

[Jeffrey]

It's upbeat, but the lyrics are sad.

[Matt Rogers]

I'd be calling you back after that song.

[Dennis]

Come on, it was good.

[Jeffrey]

No, it was good. I mean, those AI songs were cute. The girls.

[Alexis]

I think it's either funny or clingy. Like I don't know which way you'd take.

[Matt Rogers]

You don't find it romantic in any way that he put in all the extra effort to have AI write a song for them?

[Brooke]

It could be funny. I like that spin on it.

[Matt Rogers]

We'll see what Taylor actually thinks about it.

[Brooke]

Where'd you go?

[Matt Rogers]

I'm so alone.

[Brooke]

Let's play it. Radio silence, man.

[Matt Rogers]

It's slap for me, but talking with families. Oh yeah, He's jamming out to it. Okay, we're going to come back and then we'll try to get you your second date update AI style with Taylor right after this hold.

[Taylor]

Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.

[Second Date Update Announcer]

Second date update.

[Matt Rogers]

I'm not gonna lie. Our listener Dennis had a big impact on me just now.

[Brooke]

Did he really?

[Matt Rogers]

Cuz he made me want to make an AI generated song for our show.

[Jeffrey]

Hit it.

[Second Date Update Announcer]

The first date felt so great. Now they won't even communicate. You're staring at your lonely phone they left you hanging all alone. Don't you worry don't you fear the answers that you need are here. It's the Brooke and Jeffrey second date update. Brooke and Jeffrey's second date update.

[Alexis]

Yeah, it's like a Disney Channel entry.

[Matt Rogers]

You got the kids cheering at the end.

[Brooke]

It did feel like kids incorporated if you're old enough to know.

[Jeffrey]

Like I said, they all kind of sound the same.

[Matt Rogers]

Well, not enough references to how handsome I am in the song, but I'll take it.

[Brooke]

I you who made it.

[Alexis]

You could have told it.

[Brooke]

Yeah, you're fairly Literally sings what you say.

[Matt Rogers]

Room for improvement. But the whole reason I did that, if you missed part one, is because Dennis sent an AI generated country song to his date, Taylor, three days after they met up.

[Dennis]

Because

[Matt Rogers]

give the people what they want. Actually, the voice is exactly the same.

[Brooke]

That's why recording artists don't have to be worried.

[Matt Rogers]

Yeah.

[Dennis]

Okay.

[Brooke]

Where'd you go?

[Jeffrey]

Yeah. Oh, man. Do we have to call, or can we just listen to AI music the whole day?

[Matt Rogers]

I wish. He thought that song would be a fun way to help restart the conversation between them. Unfortunately, no dice.

[Brooke]

I am glad you said it after she had already ghosted you.

[Matt Rogers]

Yeah. So what else do you have left to lose?

[Jeffrey]

We know that's not the reason.

[Matt Rogers]

Something must be up. We're gonna try to figure out what that is and just dial her right now. You ready to do this, Dennis?

[Dennis]

I am. Thanks.

[Matt Rogers]

Okay. All right, let's see what she has to say. Here we go.

[Brooke]

Hello.

[Matt Rogers]

Hi. Is this Taylor?

[Taylor]

This is she. Who's this?

[Matt Rogers]

This is a radio show. We're called Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.

[Brooke]

Real people.

[Dennis]

Hi.

[Jeffrey]

Good morning.

[Brooke]

Real radio. Well, I mean, she's gotten a lot of weird stuff sent to her in the last.

[Dennis]

Yeah.

[Matt Rogers]

So sorry to, like, burst in on your day, but we're doing this segment right now. It's called the second date update date.

[Taylor]

Okay.

[Matt Rogers]

Okay. So basically what that is is where if someone goes out on a date and they're not getting a call back afterwards, we can try to reach out on the person's behalf to see if there's a reason for it. And in this case, we're trying to help out a guy named Dennis.

[Taylor]

Okay.

[Matt Rogers]

Okay.

[Dennis]

Okay.

[Brooke]

There's somewhat of a smile on your face. It sounds like when we mentioned Dennis

[Taylor]

a little bit, I would say maybe an awkward feeling.

[Brooke]

Awkward feeling. That's not always bad, though.

[Matt Rogers]

No, but Dennis feels like you've been kind of avoiding him because you haven't really been responding to any of his messages. And he isn't sure why he does

[Brooke]

not feel like it. He knows that she's in voice.

[Matt Rogers]

That adds to the feeling.

[Brooke]

Yeah. Is there a reason?

[Taylor]

I'm. I'm. I'm. I don't know if I feel comfortable discussing this on the radio.

[Matt Rogers]

Well, you don't have to say anything if you feel uncomfortable with it. It's just Dennis feels very confused because he felt like your date went really, really well.

[Taylor]

Yeah.

[Matt Rogers]

So why'd you say, oh, God?

[Taylor]

Well, I'll give him some creativity points.

[Brooke]

All right.

[Dennis]

But good.

[Jeffrey]

Those are important.

[Brooke]

For what? What did he do that was creative?

[Taylor]

I mean, there was a song, but I just kind of felt like our date didn't. It just wasn't what I was expecting. It didn't sit right with me.

[Jeffrey]

Sit right.

[Taylor]

I'm not sure if you've ever had this, but I kind of felt like maybe we had more of a connection over the phone, and it's just I'm looking for something more in person.

[Brooke]

Interesting.

[Jeffrey]

You guys had more, like, text chemistry than, like, real physical chemistry.

[Brooke]

Why, in this day and age, do you need something more in?

[Matt Rogers]

Chemistry is really overrated.

[Brooke]

Yeah, I mean, you're gonna have to

[Jeffrey]

have a lot of personal moments you need to click.

[Brooke]

Could do those online.

[Matt Rogers]

But. But you did say you gave him creativity points for the song that he sent.

[Brooke]

Good.

[Taylor]

I'm saying creativity points, but I didn't find it a little weird.

[Jeffrey]

Got it.

[Dennis]

Okay.

[Matt Rogers]

Both things, like creativity, weirdly close to the heart in that sense, I think

[Brooke]

maybe more funny, right? You would find it funny.

[Taylor]

You know, I'm just gonna say that I've been considering other dates at this time. I just feel like something was off with him.

[Matt Rogers]

Well, you know, before you start doing that and throwing yourself back into the awkwardness of the dating pool, you said that the chemistry with Dennis was off on that date night. Maybe it'll be better right now because he's on the other line listening, waiting to talk to you.

[Jeffrey]

I can feel the chemistry.

[Dennis]

Hey. Hi, Taylor.

[Matt Rogers]

There he is.

[Taylor]

Like, what are you doing?

[Dennis]

Hold on, hold on,

[Matt Rogers]

hold on.

[Brooke]

What?

[Homeserve Advertiser]

Us.

[Dennis]

I'm reaching out to see how your lovely day is.

[Brooke]

Dennis, put the. I mean, I guess don't put the phone down because you're probably talking on

[Jeffrey]

it, but, like, close the speaker.

[Matt Rogers]

Just talk to Taylor without help. Brooke, she doesn't know what the situation is.

[Jeffrey]

How could you not?

[Taylor]

Okay, I'm just a little confused.

[Dennis]

About what?

[Taylor]

I don't know. But, Dennis, you didn't feel like things were off on our date. Hold on,

[Jeffrey]

Hold on. Let him cook.

[Matt Rogers]

Let him cook.

[Dennis]

Things were all. But then we can turn it to on.

[Brooke]

That is the stupidest line. Dennis, don't read that.

[Alexis]

And he said she wouldn't notice it on the Phone.

[Taylor]

Dennis, I'm not really sure if you're understanding what I'm saying, but I feel like there is a disconnect here, Helen.

[Dennis]

It's just so. Sometimes I get nervous, you know, and like, you like the song, right? The song was okay and.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, change subject.

[Dennis]

Well, sometimes. Sometimes I use AI like before our date to start out and a couple times, you know, during the day and you know, then the song, of course.

[Matt Rogers]

I kind of wish Chat GPT had written that shorter for him.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, you see why.

[Matt Rogers]

Yeah, now I get it.

[Taylor]

So you're saying the song and when we're talking, everything is AI.

[Dennis]

Well, I'm not. I mean, a lot. A lot. I mean, me too, but I feel

[Jeffrey]

like it's just thinking right now.

[Brooke]

Well, dude, I feel like AI has stunted your emotions as a human.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah.

[Taylor]

Is your profile all AI Then?

[Brooke]

We didn't need to bring that up.

[Taylor]

AI helped.

[Brooke]

Yeah, but listen, AI is only as good as the prompt you give it. So he must be a good prompt giver.

[Taylor]

You guys know this is really weird, right?

[Brooke]

According to him, everybody uses it to write their dating profiles. Yeah.

[Jeffrey]

Do you ever use it in your life?

[Taylor]

I don't think everyone. I mean, I especially don't. I just. I feel like if going to have one on one interactions with another human, maybe AI isn't the best. Like especially on our dates.

[Matt Rogers]

But the song.

[Taylor]

No, but the song was also AI. Okay, great.

[Matt Rogers]

I mean, no other human has asked AI to write a song for you before, right? God, I hope.

[Taylor]

I guess I wouldn't know, would I?

[Jeffrey]

Yeah, that's okay.

[Brooke]

Well, I mean, the thing is, like, you didn't get a good gauge of who he is because he was too reliant. Maybe. Maybe he can back off of AI and you guys can actually see if you're compatible.

[Alexis]

Can he do that?

[Brooke]

I don't know.

[Dennis]

Did you hear what she said? We both have older sisters, you know.

[Matt Rogers]

No, I don't think Brooke said that just now.

[Jeffrey]

He just remembered.

[Brooke]

He's just reading old AI prompts.

[Matt Rogers]

You're looking at your phone again. Okay, well, he's great at prompts. And maybe this is a good time to prompt you with a question, Taylor, because we'd like to offer to send you on another date with Dennis. And we would pay for it.

[Dennis]

Come on, Taylor. I'll try to talk to you. Just, you know me.

[Matt Rogers]

Okay?

[Jeffrey]

He's just nervous. You understand that.

[Brooke]

He really was delightful before you

[Taylor]

guys. Listen, I'm not feeling the art here.

[Jeffrey]

Look at Dennis stays logged in and

[Brooke]

you just dude, no, I think it's a lesson. Dennis, Dennis. Just be yourself. You don't need to rely on artificial intelligence. Use your own.

[Dennis]

Yeah, I'm gonna answer you guys. Okay, hold on.

[Matt Rogers]

You know, why don't you email us the response to that?

[Jeffrey]

Actually, we're gonna email it. Give us three different. Separate responses, different styles.

[Matt Rogers]

Which one do we like the best?

[Dennis]

Yeah.

[Taylor]

Guys, I hope that you're all having a great day, but I think I'm gonna go. This feels a little ridiculous. I need to get back to work right now.

[Matt Rogers]

Okay.

[Brooke]

I actually thought she already hung up.

[Matt Rogers]

Yeah. Okay, well, we're gonna say goodbye to you in just a second. Just hold on. Yeah, I got something really good to say.

[Jeffrey]

Hit the song.

[Matt Rogers]

Thanks for being here.

[Dennis]

Hey, hold on. I finally have something started.

[Matt Rogers]

We're out of time, Dennis.

[Dennis]

Ah, shoot.

[Taylor]

Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.

[Jeffrey]

It's kind of catchy.

[Matt Rogers]

We've literally got half a dozen people who actually want to hear the whole song played on our show.

[Brooke]

Yeah, it's like a country playlist in the range.

[Jeffrey]

Okay, if the song blows up around the world, who gets the royalties? It's an AI song.

[Matt Rogers]

Well, wait a minute. The only person who doesn't want to hear it is just Taylor herself.

[Jeffrey]

Oh, the one it's made for.

[Brooke]

Where Taylor go? She left.

[Matt Rogers]

She's gone.

[Brooke]

That's the follow up song.

[Matt Rogers]

So no date for Dennis?

[Brooke]

No. And no new song for us either. I hated that second date.

[Matt Rogers]

Yeah, no one is requesting the A.I. brooke and Jeffrey second date theme song to be replayed. I'm offended.

[Brooke]

Yeah, you wanted like that middle part to be like some sort of breakdown where everybody sings along together.

So clutch.

Soon after, I was in their Kohler Wisconsin foundry watching molten iron poured, enamel applied by hand and the beautiful finished pieces ready to ship. Since 1883, Kohler cast iron has been crafted by incredible artisans and seeing it firsthand gave me a whole new appreciation for their craftsmanship.
