Miguel
Kicking off your weekend with a brand new second date podcast. Thank you so much for being here. It's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.
Alexis
Yeah.
Miguel
Yes. And okay, you two, what do think the success rate of taking a one night stand with a person you met at the club and turning it into an actual relationship?
Brooke
I don't know.
Miguel
You were gonna say zero.
Brooke
Well, you try it once and then you realize it's a zero. So I'll say 1%.
Miguel
In my experience, I think if you're annoying enough and you keep going back, they'll keep you around eventually. Yeah. Well, it's exactly what one of our listeners is going to try to do today. So we wish her luck apparently. And let's get to some listener comments. Alexis. Yeah, I saw one from. I'm gonna say it wrong. Sar Sevenan. I like it said I have to stop listening to your podcast while I'm driving. I was about to crash my car.
Brooke
Oh, yeah.
Miguel
So.
Brooke
Well, you can listen. Just don't look down at your phone.
Miguel
Yeah, no, I think it's not a shock. I think because they're laughing or laughing, maybe crying. We don't know.
Brooke
I just thought you need to drive in silence at this point.
Miguel
Or just anger. Like this is where my life has come. Yeah. All right, be safe out there. Let's get this brand new second date started right now.
Jeffrey
Second date update.
Brooke
When you have that option to spend the night over at your date's place the first time you hang out.
Miguel
Yeah.
Brooke
How do you make that decision?
Miguel
Wait, people say no?
Brooke
Well, yeah. I mean, do you pull a brook and just consult your bottle of wine until you say yes?
Miguel
That's funny.
Brooke
Give me 10 minutes, I'll reply. Do you pull a Jose and check their fridge to make sure they have good breakfast options for the next morning? Or do you pull a Batman villain move like two face and flip a double headed coin?
Miguel
Oh, wait, that's again the same answer.
Brooke
That I heads again. Yeah, didn't see that coming. Guess I'm staying the night with you.
Jeffrey
Or the other way, Jeff. Imagine telling a girl I gotta go.
Brooke
The coin doesn't. Yeah, that's true. I didn't think about that. But I only asked because one of our listeners had to make that decision, wondering do I stay over or do I go home? Right now I'm back with Brooke though, like, is this a really difficult way.
Miguel
You always pack a bag of extra clothes, leave in your car?
Jeffrey
Yeah.
Miguel
Thank you.
Brooke
Is that a trick? You got have much more of a game plan than I realize.
Miguel
But we are so easy on this show.
Brooke
Let's talk to our listener and see how she feels. Jackie, welcome to the show.
Jackie
Hi, you guys.
Miguel
Hi, Jackie. Are you better at playing hard to get than we are?
Brooke
Yeah. Jackie, stop hitting on us.
Jackie
I don't know.
Brooke
How did you make your bedtime decision?
Jackie
Well, it was really spur the moment, I guess.
Miguel
I. So you didn't pack a bag like Alexis is what you're saying?
Jackie
No.
Miguel
Okay, okay, okay. Who did you go out with?
Jackie
His name is Miguel.
Brooke
Okay, okay. You like the Latin boys?
Jackie
I like that a little bit.
Jeffrey
I mean, it doesn't mean he is.
Brooke
For sure, but most likely. I don't want to assume anything about him. He's probably like a super white guy.
Jackie
Yeah, no, he is Latin.
Brooke
Nice. Okay, okay.
Miguel
Now I don't feel Jose's excited.
Brooke
I already like him.
Miguel
Yeah.
Brooke
What was the lead up before that decision?
Jackie
Well, I met him on Tinder, so we had been like communicating for a while and I was out with my girlfriend and we were like taking like, you know, cute girl snaps. It's Friday night. My homegirl was like, he should send him this snap. You look so cute and like invite him out. I'm like, oh my God, right?
Brooke
Your girl gassed you up and they're the ones that told you to invite him over.
Miguel
Dude, I've been out with a single girlfriend before where we're like yeah. Have them come and they meet for the first time while we're all there.
Brooke
No way. As a guy, that'd be a little bit intimidating.
Miguel
Yeah, I know, but that's the test, right? Is a guy up for it?
Brooke
So how did it go?
Jackie
It went great. He showed up. It was like a bar club. Like, they played music. So he asked me to dance. And when I tell you he can move.
Miguel
Oh, boy's got rhythm. Okay.
Jackie
He can really dance.
Miguel
You are giddy right now.
Brooke
I love it.
Jackie
Well, he just. I don't know. It was a good date, right? I had fun.
Miguel
Can I ask how much alcohol was consumed at this point?
Jackie
A lot.
Miguel
How much before he got there? Like, did he show up and you were already.
Jackie
I wasn't, like, gone. I was like, everybody at the bar getting tipsy, like, you know.
Miguel
Okay.
Brooke
You weren't brooking it on the first.
Alexis
That's.
Miguel
That's fine. I'm never gone. The key is a glass of water after every drink.
Brooke
That sounds way too responsible. We're gonna edit that out. Okay, so, Jackie, keep going. What happens after that?
Jackie
So then, like, the lights come on and everyone's gone. Like, my friends are gone. What they left are, like, cleaning up. Yes. They left me.
Brooke
But isn't that a good sign? Like, when the girls feel like you're safe enough to be on your own with this person, they're like, okay, she's got it.
Miguel
No. You don't ever leave a girlfriend without checking in.
Brooke
Yeah.
Miguel
First ever.
Jackie
Remember, I drinking, like, a lot. So there is a high percentage chance that I told them that I was. Okay.
Miguel
Okay. Yeah, okay. Okay. And you felt safe with this guy?
Brooke
So the lights came on. They're shutting the bar down, and your friends aren't there. What happens next?
Jackie
We were hungry. Cause, you know, we had been drinking. So we got, like. Yes and hot dogs and, like, tog.
Miguel
I like how you're trying to make this sound all very classy. We talked. I mean, we made out. You were making out at this point, right? I mean.
Jackie
Yeah. In between bites.
Brooke
In between hot dog bites?
Miguel
Yeah, sure.
Brooke
Oh, yeah.
Miguel
Okay.
Brooke
So obviously this ends up over back at Miguel's place somehow.
Jackie
Yeah, he said that his place was, like, up the street, and it's not normally something I would do.
Miguel
We all say that. You don't need to, though.
Brooke
Yeah.
Jackie
But I said yes.
Miguel
Okay.
Jackie
And we had a good time.
Miguel
I mean, the description of this, though, just sounds like. I don't know. I feel like he was maybe under the understanding this was one night of fun. Yeah, it Sounds like it is.
Brooke
Brooke. How dare you? It's Tinder. And are you not remembering the hot makeout session in between wiener bites? Also true.
Miguel
I just. I don't know if your expectations are matching. Maybe what his were.
Jackie
Well, I. I kind of wanted to continue to get to know him. Like, I didn't see this as a one off.
Miguel
Did you tell him that?
Jackie
I felt like it was implied for my profile.
Brooke
No.
Miguel
That's good.
Brooke
You do not want to be on the first day. Like, by the way, I see this going long term. That's not a good thing to say to a guy.
Miguel
By the way.
Brooke
I could die like this.
Miguel
You guys. There's a next morning. They could obviously talk about how she hopes this isn't the last time she sees him and that she sees something more with him.
Brooke
Clingy.
Miguel
I'm just saying, like, what was that like?
Jackie
So we didn't have like a ton of time to talk because I got picked up. But I did text him later.
Miguel
Okay.
Jeffrey
Okay.
Brooke
Did he respond?
Jackie
See, that's why I need help. Because when I read it, it sounds like he's just being polite. Like it's a different tone to his text now rather, when we were snapping the night before, it was very. He was more into me.
Brooke
That's weird. When I text super drunk and super sober, I sound exactly the same both ways.
Miguel
She had talked to him sober, you know, like you said you had been talking to him for a couple of weeks on TikTok. So you can tell a vibe that that is true.
Brooke
Like you woke up and you're like, oh, you don't look like what I remember.
Miguel
And the lights went out at the bar. So he saw her in full light.
Brooke
Bar light.
Miguel
That is bad lighting.
Brooke
But clearly something is off here and you deserve some answers. So let's come back and call Miguel and hopefully he picks up and gives us a little bit of insight when we do your second date update. Right after this second date update, if you missed Jackie's first date, let's quickly go down the checklist of her hangout with Miguel. Okay, so is he a good dancer?
Miguel
Yes.
Brooke
Check. Did her friends approve? Check.
Miguel
Those are two good things.
Brooke
Could he make out while also eating a street meat dog at the same time? Check and check. Oh my gosh. So it's.
Miguel
I may have the same type of men in mind.
Brooke
Seriously. No wonder. Spicy. No wonder it ended with a little sleepover back at his place. But Jackie's hoping it wasn't just a one night stand thing for sure. Thing is she can't deny that Miguel's been acting differently towards her. At least over tax. He's being more polite now than he is being flirty.
Miguel
Right.
Brooke
And we just want to help her figure out the reason why. We just think he's sober now.
Miguel
The one thing I'm concerned about is that you were sounds like pretty drunk that night. And he may share a story that could be embarrassing.
Brooke
Did you consider that, Jackie?
Jackie
I mean, I don't think there was anything embarrassing that happened.
Miguel
Okay.
Brooke
Okay.
Miguel
So you're willing to hear whatever it is?
Jackie
I mean, yeah, but that's why I'm calling, because I like this guy. I thought we had a good connection on Tinder and we had fun with my friends. Even my friends are like, well, where's Miguel? And I'm like, I know.
Brooke
Here's the thing. If it does happen to be something embarrassing that you don't remember, the good news is Brooke has done something 10 times more embarrassing sober.
Miguel
Probably even.
Brooke
Yeah, in fact, we all have.
Jackie
That makes me feel better.
Brooke
Okay, good.
Miguel
The comparison bar is very low.
Brooke
Yeah, so we're always there. Real quick. Do we want to go around the room and give awful examples of how we've embarrassed ourselves? Maybe we should save that for once we hear what the issue is. Got it. Okay, let's see if Miguel answers the phone. I'm going to dial his number right now. Here we go.
Alexis
Hello?
Brooke
Hey, is this Miguel?
Alexis
Yeah, who's this?
Brooke
Hey, man, we're a radio show. We're called Brooke and Jeffrey in the Morning. Hey, there's more than Jeff.
Miguel
Yep. Hi, Miguel.
Alexis
How can I help you guys?
Brooke
We're calling because we're in the middle of a second right now. That's called a second date update. Sorry.
Alexis
Well, I'm just confused. What does this have to do with me?
Miguel
Great question.
Brooke
Okay, well, if you don't. If you don't know what it is, it's where we have a listener who has gone out with you and had a really nice time. Was hoping to meet up again, but that hasn't been happening and she's not really sure why.
Alexis
Who is it?
Brooke
I don't know if you're seeing multiple people, but the girl who reached out to us about you today, her name is Jackie.
Alexis
Jackie. Okay, Jackie from Tinder.
Miguel
Yeah, that's right. Is that how you have her saved in the phone? Sounds like. Yeah, sounds like her name. You guys met up?
Alexis
Yeah, we. I met her and her friends at the club.
Brooke
Right. We heard the story from her and it sounded like a really fun night with the Stuff at the club, and it ended up back at your place after some street food, hot dogs.
Miguel
She said her friends even liked you.
Alexis
Yeah, she's fun.
Miguel
Okay. All right. Were you going into the night just expecting to just have fun for one night? Like you weren't thinking of her maybe as a multi night type of lady? I don't want to say relationship, because I don't know that that's what she's looking for, but.
Alexis
Yeah, no, we. We. We had a situation the next morning.
Miguel
What?
Brooke
A situation? What happened?
Miguel
She said that she had to hurry out because the car was waiting for her.
Brooke
Mm.
Alexis
Well, yeah, so I heard her get up and call somebody to pick her up. Yeah, I told her, like, you know, I can call you noob or whatever, and she said, no, no, it's. It's okay. It's okay. So then she jumps in the shower, and about five minutes later, there's a knock at the door. And I open up, and her mom.
Miguel
What?
Brooke
Oh, no.
Miguel
Her mother is standing at your door?
Alexis
Yeah, apparently she was. Her.
Brooke
Right.
Miguel
Oh, my God.
Brooke
Wow.
Miguel
I cannot imagine calling my mother after a night like that.
Alexis
Yeah, she was unhappy.
Brooke
Unhappy?
Miguel
What?
Alexis
Yeah, she was not happy.
Miguel
Oh, wait. What did she say?
Alexis
She started grilling me. Like, did you have fun last night? She said, how many partners have you been with?
Brooke
Oh, no, it was real.
Alexis
Really, really awkward.
Brooke
Yeah, that totally explains it. Actually, I wouldn't be calling people back either.
Miguel
So. Wait, did Jackie ever come and interfere or know that this was happening?
Alexis
It took her a while to get out of the shower and get her stuff on and everything. So in my mind, before that whole awkward situation with her mom, I was probably gonna hang out with her again. But to meet her mom on the first day like that, where she's grilling me.
Brooke
Oh, yeah, and you can't never recover from that.
Miguel
And it's the morning after. Like, her mom will always think you as that guy.
Brooke
But it could be a funny story if you're able to spin it the right way. Oh.
Jeffrey
Depending if she's a cool mom.
Miguel
Why would Jackie call her mother?
Brooke
That's a good question, Brooke. And actually, we should find out, because I have to tell you, Miguel, that Jackie is on the other line right now listening to this phone call.
Miguel
Yeah.
Alexis
Is her mom on the line, too?
Brooke
I don't know of Jackie. Talk to Miguel here. What? Jeez.
Jackie
Hi, Miguel.
Alexis
I'm so sorry you heard all that.
Jackie
I. I'm just. I don't know. It's weird because, like, I was waiting for you to, like, call me Back. You know, just like text. Text me back or something.
Miguel
Jackie, did you hear the stuff of like, why didn't you take up his offer on getting an Uber instead of calling your mom? Okay, well, no, I get that. Cause you're in your. You look like the morning after. It's tough in an Uber, but it's.
Jeffrey
Better than with your mom.
Miguel
I'm just saying.
Brooke
Yeah, but what if the Uber driver's cute? Y where Alexis is coming from?
Miguel
No, but you do have all your friends you went out with.
Jackie
Okay, but like my. My mom, she was like nearby. She was leaving church and it's like life spend money on an Uber.
Brooke
She came from church to pick her daughter up after a one night stand. She's not.
Miguel
She was upset.
Brooke
Wow.
Miguel
Did you know that she was so upset she had to have lectured you in the car, said something to you.
Jackie
My mom usually picks me up from my one night stand.
Miguel
Oh, wait.
Jeffrey
Oh my God.
Brooke
She's used to this behavior. Mom knows the rundown. Okay? It's another Sunday. You know what to do after.
Miguel
Jackie, this is probably why they're all one night and not more. Yeah, that's a good point.
Jackie
I mean, she doesn't need everybody. I just happen to be in the shower. I didn't know she was gonna grill you. Miguel, I'm so sorry. I didn't. I had no idea she was gonna do that. I mean, my mom is my best friend. She's my favorite person in the whole world. And I really didn't wrong with her coming to pick me up after church. I mean, she was in the area. I didn't want you to have to send money on Uber. I didn't want to inconvenience anybody.
Brooke
I mean, Miguel, what do you think?
Alexis
Listen, I get it. Like, I'm super close with my mom too. And I've had my mom pick me up from some really sticky situations. But like, I was under 18 at the time and, you know, I'm an adult now.
Miguel
You're an adult?
Brooke
It's been a while.
Alexis
It was just really off putting for to feel like your mom doesn't like me already, you know? Like, that was. It was just really weird.
Jeffrey
She loves you.
Jackie
She was just asking about like the other day, like.
Miguel
Wait, she was asking about Miguel?
Jackie
Yeah, she was asking like, have you heard from him? He seemed like a nice guy.
Brooke
Oh. Sometimes moms come in really, really hot when they. They just want to like, make sure that he's a good guy. They're not actually angry.
Miguel
And you already ripped the band aid off with her. Like, there's no way you could get lower and she knows where you live for the next time. Yeah.
Brooke
Oh, yeah.
Jackie
I mean, he did say that she would pick me up if it ever did happen again.
Alexis
Okay, this is so weird. Like, I've never dealt with any this before.
Brooke
Well, we'd like to let you deal with it one more time and send you on another date with Jackie. And we'd pay for it.
Miguel
I bet Jackie could even promise that her mom won't come or pick her up or.
Brooke
Or maybe go have any mom and not her.
Miguel
Any interaction with you.
Brooke
No, she'll have her grandma come and.
Jeffrey
Get her this time.
Jackie
I mean, Miguel, I thought that we had like, a really great time. I think that it's gonna be better. Like, mom doesn't have to come, but I also just want to say, like, isn't my mom really hot? Like, that's how I'm gonna look in like the next 20 years. Like, she looks amazing. So if you pick me. If you pick me, Miguel, like, I'm gonna be hot for the rest of my life.
Brooke
Not a lot of people come on the show and try to sell themselves by saying how hot their mom is.
Miguel
I should try this, though.
Brooke
Yeah, but it's up to you. Miguel, we're running out of time here, so we need an answer honestly.
Alexis
That was the weirdest pitch I ever heard. But Jackie, I'm down for it.
Miguel
Oh, she got those good jeans.
Jackie
Oh, my gosh.
Miguel
You know, the first person she's calling after this is her mom.
Jeffrey
Brook and Jeffrey in the morning.
Brooke
Before I say anything about this, I just want to say, make sure if you miss any of our second date updates, you go to our YouTube page at Brooke and Jeffrey.
Miguel
Yeah, they're all up there.
Brooke
We put them up every week along with our awkward Tuesday call calls. And man, maybe this should have been an awkward Tuesday phone call. Having your mom come from church to pick you up after your one night stand.
Miguel
Oh, and then lecture the one night stand. Oh, yeah, like that was the part that. How did she go from like, lecturing him to I like him? Where is Miguel?
Brooke
Mom came in with the tough love after every one night stand.
Miguel
That is going to be one mother in law to handle for somebody.
Brooke
Oh, yeah, man, why didn't we ask though? We should have specifically asked who picked her up up after the date.
Miguel
Because who would have it a million years thought it would be her mother.
Brooke
Well, whose job is it to ask that question? Alexis, we need to put you on this. Okay? From now on.
Miguel
Okay?
Brooke
Anytime. We do a second date. You are asking the driver's name, a physical description, license plate number, and relationship status.
Miguel
It's not gonna get me like flagged or anything for asking all that information.
Brooke
It's just gonna help us. This is a good learning moment so that we can help our listeners email the show and we will call the person who's not calling you back and grill them like her mom did.
Miguel
Yep, that's right. And Jeffrey in the Morning.
