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.
Starting point is 00:01:29 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.

Starting point is 00:01:51 No glasses, no contacts, no limits. What will you do? LASIK at evergreen.com. Moving 92.5. 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,
Starting point is 00:02:12 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?
Starting point is 00:02:32 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.
Starting point is 00:02:45 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,
Starting point is 00:03:08 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
Starting point is 00:03:23 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.
Starting point is 00:04:09 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
Starting point is 00:04:38 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.
Starting point is 00:04:54 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
Starting point is 00:05:12 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
Starting point is 00:05:36 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.
Starting point is 00:05:52 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.
Starting point is 00:06:12 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.
Starting point is 00:06:33 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.
Starting point is 00:06:55 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.
Starting point is 00:07:10 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
Starting point is 00:07:36 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.
Starting point is 00:07:50 Alright, hang on. Moving 92.5 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.
Starting point is 00:08:06 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?
Starting point is 00:08:15 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.
Starting point is 00:08:26 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.
Starting point is 00:08:41 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.
Starting point is 00:09:01 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.
Starting point is 00:09:17 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?
Starting point is 00:09:44 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?
Starting point is 00:09:57 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.
Starting point is 00:10:13 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.
Starting point is 00:10:29 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.
Starting point is 00:10:52 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.
Starting point is 00:11:20 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.
Starting point is 00:11:50 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.
Starting point is 00:12:05 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.
Starting point is 00:12:29 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
Starting point is 00:12:46 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,
Starting point is 00:13:22 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.
Starting point is 00:13:42 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.
Starting point is 00:14:09 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
Starting point is 00:14:26 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
Starting point is 00:14:44 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
Starting point is 00:15:10 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.
Starting point is 00:15:25 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.
Starting point is 00:15:44 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.
Starting point is 00:16:08 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.
Starting point is 00:16:22 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.
Starting point is 00:16:45 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,
Starting point is 00:17:00 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.
Starting point is 00:17:26 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.
Starting point is 00:17:42 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.
Starting point is 00:18:01 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.
Starting point is 00:18:16 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.
Starting point is 00:18:32 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
Starting point is 00:18:52 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,
Starting point is 00:19:07 all you have to do is email the show, and we will call the person who didn't call you back. Moving 92.5.
