For years, I had to rely on other people to tell me my story.
And what I heard wasn't good.
You really f***ed last night.
It felt like I lived most of my life in a blackout.
I was trapped in addiction.
You had to grab the lamp and smash it against the walls.
And then I decided I wanted to tell my own story.

Ruck and Jubels, second date update.
A common argument that couples get in is usually over directions.
It happens a lot.
It can make it even more stressful if you're trying to figure out those directions,
and there could be a serial killer following you.
Or a madman with a chainsaw who wants to cut you in half. It can make it very stressful, and nobody knows that better than Matthew right now,
who's on the phone for a second date update.
Matthew, how are you?
Yeah, I'm good.
We'll get to the reason that you think you're not getting a call back in just a second.
But first, tell us about the girl you want to call today.
What's her name?
Her name's Sarah.
Sarah.
And where did you meet Sarah?
Hold up.
We're just like nonchalantly going into Sarah as there is a madman following him.
Like, I'm kind of more concerned about the serial killer than Sarah at this point.
Is Sarah alive?
That's why I said we'll get to it in a second.
How'd you meet Sarah?
We met online a while back.
And, I don't know, we just started talking, chatting it up and whatnot.
And it was, you know, the start of fall.
So it would be the perfect time to go to a haunted house or something fall festivity.
Oh, I was concerned for your safety this whole time.
And it turns out it's just one big haunted house hype.
I just kind of wanted it to be game,
ride, chill time, but
it turned out to not be that at all.
Yeah, according to your email, it seems like
you might have had one of the worst dates ever.
It kind of became like a haunted house
actually, because
after all the games and the people
and, you know, whatever, we
it was just corn maze, and so okay, yeah, like know whatever we there was this corn maze and so okay
yeah like sure we'll do the corn maze and everything's going great you know like we're
hitting it off having a great time bonding and all that but then 15 20 minutes start to go by
and we're not seeing anybody else you know we're lost in a corn maze. And I know that's the point of a corn maze, but it's getting kind of like a long time and it's starting to get dark, darker,
darkest. Just I can see that. Like if you're claustrophobic, like that's not a good feeling.
Yeah. Yeah. I didn't think I was, but I kind of turned into, yeah, it was closing in on
me. So you guys were struggling in the corn maze and that's where all the madness started?
Yeah.
So I wouldn't say we were fighting per se, but we just kind of got short with each other.
And I just know where we were going and where we were coming from.
But then, you know, I wanted to involve her.
So we went her way.
It just wasn't the right way.
So things were not going great and she
started to panic and i asked if she was okay and she was not okay and so i was like okay you know
what what could i do to calm her down because that's the worst thing is being you know freaking
out yeah panicking you could have said hey we're at a corn maze in a pumpkin patch i have a cell
phone on me i can call 9-1-1 if i need to we're fine i don maze in a pumpkin patch. I have a cell phone on me. I can call 911 if I need to.
We're fine.
I don't know if I would have called 911.
I mean, I don't think our life is in danger, but I was trying to use my cell phone as a flashlight.
Oh, gosh.
It's getting that dark?
Yeah.
Yeah, exactly.
And the battery was going down like crazy.
That's scary, too.
This is like a scene from a horror film.
Yeah.
It felt like it.
So like any good horror film, I needed some comedic timing and a little soften
it up and so i told her about this story you know when i was little i got lost in this toys r us and
started to you know get nervous but i ended up finding my mom and then i look up and she's
crying what she was actually crying you made her cry i thought she was laughing but then i noticed
there's tears in her eyes
and I was like, what?
What's wrong? It's like a cute little story.
She was like, all she could picture was this
little five-year-old lost in
Toys R Us and this sad
story.
I thought she was crying because she couldn't
figure out how to get out of there or something. She was actually crying because
of your story? Well, that's what
it turned into. Then she just started crying because of the corn maze.
And I mean, not crying.
She was bawling, like wailing.
And she just screamed at me.
Like, help, boss.
She didn't want someone to think I was like hurting her or anything.
So did your date end there?
Did you just like go, all right, I'm going to find my own way out?
Or did you guys finally make it out of the corn maze?
I thought about it.
But I think it might have been like an hour, an hour and a half maybe.
We were in this thing.
We just started seeing these flashlights like a search party.
And it ended up being the workers of the maze.
They were like, I mean, coming pretty fast too
because they were hearing all these screaming noises.
Crying.
Yeah.
And they kind of looked at me like I was crazy, but whatever.
We ended up getting out and everything was okay.
I just, I don't know where we stand really, because I haven't been able to get a hold
of her.
So wait, you got out and then what happened?
Did you just part ways or?
No, I took her home and again, I was trying to, you know, lighten the mood.
I don't think it was probably the smartest.
Yeah, you apparently suck at that.
Another story about when you were seven and you were left in a Walmart.
No, I just told her that the GPS wasn't working.
Like it was, the GPS was going crazy.
Oh, like in your car?
Yeah, it was just like a subtle thing. You know, I didn't even think a thing of it. And then she did not appreciate that. Oh, like in your car? Yeah, it was just like a subtle thing.
You know, I didn't even think a thing of it.
And then she did not appreciate that.
Oh, dude.
These are bad jokes, man.
So at this point, she feels like you're making fun of her for overreacting in the corn maze, I'm guessing.
I can see where that, yeah, that logic comes in.
And have you talked to her at all since your date?
No, I've been trying to text her, even called her a couple times,
just kind of see how she is because I just want to know about her well-being.
Okay, so you're okay with dating someone
who may be a little emotional?
Yeah, I mean, it was my fault
because I put her in that situation
and if she wanted to go out again,
I wouldn't take her to a place like that.
Okay, all right.
Yeah, big lesson learned.
All right, well, we'll play a song and then come back and call her and get your second date update, okay? again, I wouldn't take her to a place like that. Okay. Big lesson learned.
Well, we'll play a song and then come back and call her and get your second date update, okay?
Alright.
Alright, hang on.

Brooke and Jubal in the morning
second date update.
What are some of the scariest things in life?
Probably sharks.
Yeah, those are pretty scary.
Most likely sharks.
And then there's the corn maze.
Right from there to the...
Okay.
Yeah, those are probably
the two scariest things.
That's it.
What if there's a shark
in a corn maze?
It's impossible.
That would be horrible.
Also, a great new movie
that should come out.
Oh, really?
They had Sharknado.
Why not Shark in a Corn Maze?
Yeah.
Anybody called Sarah Michelle Gellar about that one?
I'm sure she's got a clear schedule for it.
I mean, you put this theme song behind it,
and I'm already frightened.
We'll work on that after the second date update.
But right now, Matthew is on the phone,
and he wants to call a girl named Sarah.
That's what they did on their first date.
They went out to a place that had a corn maze,
and things got bad because they got lost in the corn maze.
Eventually, she was crying because she just wanted to get out of there.
They were finally found by the staff.
They got out.
They drove home, and he made a joke at the end of the evening
about his GPS not working in his car.
She didn't like that joke very much, and she hasn't talked to him since.
So we're about to get her on the phone and find out if we can get Matthew a second date.
You ready to go, Matthew?
Yep.
Okay, I just, you know, hope she wasn't actually crying
because she was scared she was going to be stuck with you forever.
Ouch.
Yeah.
I'm just saying, prepare for that.
We've heard some not very nice, kind things
during these second date updates.
Yeah, like I said, I just want to make sure everything's okay
and she's not completely traumatized,
and maybe we can do something else besides go to a corn maze.
Okay, good choice.
Well, dial her phone number right now. Here we go.
Hello?
Hi, can I speak to Sarah, please?
This is she.
Sarah, how are you?
This is Jubal from Brook and Jubal in the Morning.
This is who?
Jubal from Brook and Jubal in the Morning.
It's a radio show.
Jubal?
No, that's my sister.
My name is Jubal.
Jubal, okay.
And Brook and Jubal in the Morning is a radio show,
and we got an email about you from one of our listeners.
That's why I'm calling you.
Hmm.
Okay.
Okay.
We do a segment on our show.
It's called the Second Date Update.
That's where if you go out on a date with somebody
and then end up not calling them back after,
they can email us to get you on the phone and ask what happened.
And Matthew, the guy that you went out with to a corn maze recently.
Oh, God.
Really?
He emailed us because he says he's been trying to get a hold of you, but you're not calling him back.
Well, that would be correct.
Now, wait, is that reaction because of him or because of how terribly the date ended?
I don't know. All I can say is? I don't know.
All I can say is, I don't know.
It just wasn't a good experience,
so I'll just leave it at that.
I mean, I don't think he meant for you guys
to get stuck in the corn maze
and for things to get that bad.
Yeah, but, you know,
my mother has always told me
that when you hold a man's hand, if you don't feel safe and secure, then he's not the one.
When I held his hand, it was all sweaty and clammy and disgusting.
And he just didn't act like a real man on this date.
Like, I don't understand how we're lost.
Okay?
We're lost. And i'm usually not that emotional
but i showed a lot of emotion i'm crying i'm upset and he's just like sitting down on the
ground with his legs up not gonna move i'm just gonna chill here until someone comes and gets us
like who does that but he sat that? He sat down. Like, this could
have been a real life or
death situation because we're lost.
Let's slow it down. You're in a
corn maze. It wasn't actually a life or death
situation. Maybe not
necessarily, but
what if it was?
You just sit down on the ground and
throw your legs up in the air and like, oh,
I don't know what to do.
Well, I will say to his defense, if you're ever lost in the woods somewhere, you're told to stay put.
Like oftentimes going further is just going to get you into more trouble.
Okay, listen, I'm sorry.
I don't know your name or whatever, but this is not the woods, hon.
It's the corn maze.
It literally goes in circles.
I mean, how much loss could we have gotten?
And I'm just like, get out of my mind.
And he's doing nothing.
Just like, ha ha, cracking jokes.
Oh, I had this happen to me before.
Well, guess what?
It's never happened to me.
So I would like to like, you know, I love my life.
Hello.
You know, and I want to get out of here like now wait
you were really honestly that scared it's pitch black in a cornfield no light no nothing I didn't
want to spend the night there and he was just acting like well someone will find us we'll be
all right what okay so basically you don't think he's the type of man you want to be with
because he wouldn't be able to take care of you in like a life or death
or any kind of situation, basically.
Yeah, I mean, what if it was a real disaster like an earthquake or, you know,
we've had hurricanes and stuff.
What are we going to do, just sit on the ground and chill like,
oh, we'll get swept away, but someone will find us?
I just feel like that's a pretty unfair comparison.
Okay, it's not like I got in a fetal position and was, like, giving up hope or anything.
What's going on?
Oh, Sarah, that's Matthew.
He's actually on the other line listening and wants to talk to you.
Apparently just started talking to you.
Jesus.
Take the whole wheel.
Really?
I wasn't like I was just giving up that
wasn't the point i wasn't trying to be this like wussy guy well that's what it looked like to me
matthew and then on top of that when we get in the car you're like oh yeah my gps is screwed up i
can't even get a call what was that i i was going for another joke. I mean.
Another joke.
I'm crying, and I'm upset, and I'm freaking out.
You want to make another joke?
We were at a corn maze.
It was supposed to be fun, lighthearted, and it just got so serious,
and you were yelling at the top of your lungs like I was going to kill you or something.
So my emotions aren't valid to you?
Is that what you're saying?
That's how you were reacting?
It was like I was your girlfriend
and I was freaking out about something?
You're just like, oh, well, it's just this.
That's how that's your answer?
You know, I was trying to be calm and trying to calm you down.
I mean, what?
I was supposed to freak out too?
No, you weren't supposed to freak out.
You were supposed to validate my emotions
and make me feel like I was safe and secure.
You didn't do that.
I was trying to get your mind off the situation, and I guess it just did not work.
Sarah, I don't think you're—I feel like you're not giving him enough chance.
Like, you were over-emotional.
I'm sorry, but you were in a corn maze. I understand you were scared, but to be screaming and crying
at the top of your lungs and then blame him
for your emotions seems
unfair.
I'm getting emotional all over again just thinking about it.
Like, he doesn't know what my
childhood was. Maybe I got stuck
somewhere and he just made fun of it.
I told you a situation from my childhood
and you didn't seem to care about that.
I did care, Matthew.
I was crying.
You cared too much.
She's right, actually.
Now, you didn't care about it, but now she cared too much, Matthew?
Which one is it?
Look, I don't know, but what I do know is that whenever they found us, they did take us the way I wanted to go.
Oh.
Oh, I wouldn't put an I told you so in there right now, Matthew.
That's probably not super smart.
I'm just saying if you would have trusted me, Sarah, and let me be the man,
I would have saved you and got you out of the situation like you wanted to.
Also, now you want me to trust you after you sat down on the ground
and threw your legs up and made jokes.
Nah, son, I'm not believing you.
Oh, my gosh, Sarah.
We just kept going in circles and circles and circles.
And at the end of the day, it is a corn maze,
and children had done this corn maze.
And since we obviously couldn't figure it out,
maybe we just should have got naked in the corn maze and done stuff.
What?
Would that have been what you wanted?
That is creepy.
Sounds good to me.
At that point, you couldn't even get me.
So.
Okay, come on.
Come on.
You know, earlier when I talked to people at the radio station, I didn't want to go to a corn maze.
But I think we should go back to the corn maze and face our fears.
Show you that I can be a man and take control of the situation.
Okay. All right, Sarah. Hey, Sarah, would you like to go on a second and take control of the situation. Okay.
All right, Sarah.
Hey, Sarah, would you like to go on a second date with Matthew?
We will pay for it.
You guys go back to the corn maze so you can punch a seven-year-old in the face,
show he's a man, and you can handle any kind of adversity.
What do you think?
So let me get this straight.
He wants me to go back to the corn maze,
the place where we had all of this disagreement at,
and try to – no, no, no, thank
you.
Yeah, I don't think you guys are a very well-fit couple.
It'd kind of be like a cute, fun story, the way we started out our relationship, you know?
Yeah, like, you guys went to a corn maze, you questioned his manhood, you know, back
to the corn maze, you probably still would question it again after, you know what I mean?
Like, it'd be a cute story, Sarah.
Yeah, I think I've done enough crying
for the entire year already, guys.
I don't want to do it again.
Thank you.
All right.
All right, well, it's your loss.
You're missing out on this.
And if you think it, you have my number.
No, actually, I don't.
I blocked and deleted you.
Oh, all right. Sorry, actually, I don't. I blocked and deleted you. All right.
Sorry, Matthew.
No second date.
But I'm sure there's a woman out there who will hold you when you're scared.
So don't worry about it.
At the very least, somebody who's not going to freak out and go all lunatic crazy on me at the corn maze.
I mean, that's the type of girl I'm looking for.
Well, good luck, homie.
Find her because I'm done.
Black deleted.
Thank you.
Broken Jubal in the morning.
A text in at 78592 that says,
see, that's why I don't go to corn mazes.
It's ruined three of my relationships.
Talking about today's second date update.
If you missed it,
Matthew and Sarah spent their first date
lost in a giant corn maze.
Oh, man.
She didn't think that he handled the situation like a man.
He was wondering why he wasn't getting a call back.
Yeah.
And she thought he didn't handle it like a man because instead of taking charge and finding a way out of the corn maze,
he just sat on the ground and made jokes and waited for people to find them.
Right.
Matthew said that he's only trying to take Sarah's mind off the situation with a little bit of humor.
But Sarah was
completely turned off by his attitude
and doesn't think that he could handle himself in stressful
situations because of it. They decided
not to go on a second date. I just feel like
she's looking for like a super like pumped up
testosterone dude that
would drive me crazy.
Walk straight through it.
I don't care.
Remember if you want to do a second date update,
all you have to do is email the show,
and we will call the person who didn't call you back.
