You're going to hear all about it. And our brand new what's on your mind. We got a full hour, brand new episode. Thank you for being here with the Brooke and Jeffrey podcast. Yeah.

It's going to be a fun one. The scam. The scammer continues. Yeah. Today, yeah, every day this week, we're doing those phone pranks on the scam calls we get to the station. And, dude, the scammer reactions are pretty funny. Yeah. It's funny because, like, they can't just get off the phone.

phone. They want your money and your info. So it's like trying to deal with us is really fun. Oh my God. Enjoy that. And before we get to the brand new full hour, what do you see, Alexis? On the comments. I saw one on TikTok from Falafel who said, hello, this is Saif from Iraq. Love your show. I started listening to the full show from the start on YouTube. I'm now at May 13th, 2025. I still have a long way to go. Can you shop me out so when I reach this episode, I can hear it. Hey, shout out. When you hear this, you've made it. We're talking to you in the future.

Yeah. Hope life is still great and hope you're still enjoying this. And still listening? Yeah. Awesome. It's awesome to make you smile. Yeah, exactly. All right, brand new full hour starts right now.

I've got something that's been trending online, and I hope it's okay for me to say it on live radio. Just say it. Oh, is it inappropriate? It's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. It's two words. Uh-oh. And, oh, is this going to be my last day on the air? I don't know.

Is this bad or does Jeff just not know what it means? I know. I can't tell if it's like some sort of profane phrase or you're just working up the courage to say something nice to someone. Whatever. I'm just going to say it. The two words, Grandma showers. I am concerned. Isn't that like a baby shower?

Yeah. Yes, exactly. Not as naughty as it sounds. Grandma shower similar to a baby shower, but for the upcoming granny to be. Why are you talking like it's a bachelorette party? Well, I don't know the details of what happens that one, so who knows what really goes down. It's definitely controversial online, because yes, people are doing it and using the term, but there's a large number who don't like that the grandparents get to be the center of attention

when the spotlight should really be focused more on the parents who, are about to have this child. He does feel like the mother-in-law is that wear the white dresses to the wedding are probably the ones throwing this. It's like, I'm finally going to be a grandma. Yeah, it's all about me. Others say it really depends on the dynamic in the family because in certain situations, the grandparents actually end up watching the kids more than the mom and dad do. Dude, I'd be careful with that more word.

My dad would adopt Mateo if he could. He sees him all the time. You're nephew. Very involved parents. Well, and you know, Grammy and grandpa need to be. prepared for it, and if it sounds like something you might want to do, remember there's no double-dippin

at Grandma's shower. It's for first-time grandparents only. You don't get one for a grandkid number two and three and four and five. Who's making the rules? Yeah, wait a minute. Do you actually ask for presents? Yeah. That's kind of strange. But I guess that's coming from

me. I have a hoarder mom who's kept everything I've ever touched, and so she had all of my own toys for my kids to play with. Another event, not quite as popular. as Grandma showers, Grandma Shockers. Now, that one actually sounds dirtier to me. We're going to demonstrate during the shock collar question of the day. Jake, show Nana what's in store for her to roast.

Well, Grandma likes it. Come on now. On this day back in 1990, the Simpsons became a weekly staple on Fox. Yay. And cartoons never were the same again. This quirky, dysfunctional yellow family broke all the traditional rules of television. They had smarter jokes, they had edgier satire, and loving depictions of Homer choking out his own son. It's animated so they can get away.

What a good dad. It's no wonder the show's been going strong for over 35 years. Dang. But how well that each of you really know the Simpsons? We're going to find out during a special Springfield Showdown edition of Plenty of 20. Now, each of you will say a number 1 through 20 in. response, I'll give you a question about the Simpsons TV show. Just answer correctly to stay in the game. Okay. Let's start with the woman who bleaches her hair to match the same color as the Simpson's skin.

That's Alexis. That is a Simpsons yellow. It's naturally jaundiced. That's right. And 11. Which Springfield character is famous for shouting, hi didily ho, neighborino. I need a first and last name. And we can't help her. I know Simpsons expert, but I think it's Ned Flanders. Yay! All right. Right, Alexis. Good work. Alexis starts every answer in this segment with, I don't know anything about this, but here's the exact right.

I think that's how she lives her life. Pretty much. I don't have a backup, so it better be that. Brooke, we're over to you. 11 is off the board. Oh, Simpsons. Okay. I was nine when it came out, so give me nine.

Oh. What is? the name of Krusty the clown's sidekick and producer. Okay, I just got it. I'm nervous about this, man. This is a deep cut. I don't know if I would get this right. Okay, I almost thought Sponge Bob, but I think I'm mixing up the words.

And Bob is in it. He's got the curly hair. It's tip of her tongue. Something Bob. Rob Ross, you're close. He doesn't curly hair. Oh, Side Show Bob! Yes!

Yes! Side Show Bob! Bob Terwilliger is correct, Brooke. What's like Kelsey Grammar, by the way. Next time I listen, yes. We're over to Jose. Uh, seven. Even though the phrase changes, the first three words stay the same.

What is Bart's favorite three words to write on the chalkboard during the opening credits? Three words. Starts each phrase on the chalkboard. Oh, it starts. I was like he does a different one each time. Oh, man, I knew he was going to give me an obscure that I'm not going to remember. Oh, man. You're asking Jose a wrong.

reading question in the middle of a Simpson's show. Okay, so I went to Catholic school, and I used to have to write on the board like Bart Simpson, and they would make you say, I will not, because you're not going to do it anymore. So I think it's, I will not. Yes. Correct, Jose. My fellow get in trouble guy. It was worth getting in trouble in school for that one.

Oh, wow. Jeffrey, we're over to you. Need a number, please. 16. What is the name of the Springfield Elementary Principal? I need first and last. These are good. It's so hard because you can picture them.

Exactly. Or you know one of the names. Yeah. See, this is another TV show that my parents refused to let me watch when I was growing up because it was too edgy. It was going to make me into a bad person. I used to make fun of kids like you on the playground. Yeah. You're going to watch it? The Simpsons watchers. See what happens to them?

You're bullies. Yep, that's exactly what happens. His name is principal. I know that. Principal, the name Burns comes to mind. Principal Burns. That's the name. That's too bad.

What, you're going to bully me in the middle of my answer? Thanks a lot, bro. They bring you off. Is that your answer? I don't know. I don't know anybody else. I'm not going to accept that. His name is Seymour Skinner.

Yes. His mom, y'all see more. We're talking about it. We're talking Simpsons trivia for the 35th anniversary of the Simpsons being a weekly show on Fox, and we're back to Alexis. I need a number, please. Oh, three. Alexis, what is the official name of the bar

where Homer hangs out with his friends? It's two words. There's one word on the sign. It's a two-word name, though. Duffer, duffer, duff. Not really close to the name, but that's a beer they serve there. Oh, is that what it is?

You can't get enough of that wonderful duff. Oh, that's the beer. Oh, so I didn't make that up. Also, Jeffrey's thoughts on Hillary. No, you're right. Oh, yeah. The bar. Is that what the beer's named after?

I'm still going to go Duff beer. The name of the bar is Duff Beer. That's incorrect, Alexis. The name of the bar is Mo's Tavern. They hang out with Mo, and that means Jose and Brooke didn't get any wrong and have won today's edition of Plenty of 20. Well, no surprise, the bullies of the show come out on top. They get to bully who gets shes.

shocked while they sing yellow by Coldplay. I wonder who it's going to be. We both know. We're like Nelson. God, he would listen to Coldplay. Yeah. Jeff. Yeah, of course it is.

Look at the stars. Look how they shine for you. Oh, my God. That's like if Ralph Wiggum tried to sing that song. I think that's a funny reference. I like it. That's good. You're going to be embarrassed when you look up who that is.

I already am. That's your shock. Call our question of the day. Phone taps coming up in just a few minutes. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Experts always say a cluttered desk is a sign of a cluttered mind.

And if you look at each person's work spaces here, Alexis's desk, I mean, spotless. Someone would even say empty. I don't even have a desk. Jose? Yeah, he's not allowed to have a desk anymore because the last time we gave him one,

he brought it into the bathroom with him. and it completely disappeared. Nobody knows where it went. It fit perfect. I know, but... Come on. And then, of course, there's Brooks desk. Oh, boy.

Which, yikes. Yeah. It's like, you know... Bad. There's very bad. There's red strep paint on it from two years ago. You don't I clean that out. Oh, really?

Yeah, I'll just say... I'm using that as a candy jar now. I'll say, we found a rabid raccoon underneath it gnawing on a half-eaten sandwich from 2022s. Oh, wow. He was fed. If you want to take it as a positive, good for you, Brooke. So who knows what we're about to get as we go around the room sharing our various states of cluttered thoughts

during a brand new what's on your mind coming up right now. It's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. And when you walk into a 7-Eleven, you wouldn't think it's a $34 billion company. But somehow it is. The ones in Japan look awesome. Just like when you listen to us talk, you wouldn't think that we're a nationally syndicated radio show with millions of podcast subscribers all over the world, but somehow we are. Trust me, I'm just as baffled as you are, especially during this segment where we go around the room sharing what's been on our minds. Starting with Brooke, Brooke, what's on your mind?

Well, over the weekend was the opening ski day for our family, our first day up in the mountain. Is it allowed to ski on the mountain at that point or you guys going rogue? So we drop our kids off at their ski lessons and then my husband and I take one run and I'm like, hey, let's head over to this double chair. We get on the chair halfway up it stops. Which is normal. That's normal. Because people fall. Totally.

Because people fall. We get the start. Not in the middle of it. But 10 minutes goes by, no movement. All right. Concerning. A little weird. Is that longer than usual?

30 minutes go by. No. This is so odd. You're cold? And we are not moving. Oh. When suddenly a ski patrol person is sliding down underneath everybody's chair below us and yelling up, the lift broke. No.

My worst nightmare. We are going to have to emergency evacuate everyone. No. What are you doing? A helicopter? Trampoline? What do you do? How do you get off of a lift when you're like, what, 20, 30 feet up in the air?

It's a long process. Two hours later. Oh, are you kidding me. We are still sitting there together, and my husband is mad at me. Okay? You missed it. He did not want to go. It's not ready yet.

He's mad because as ski patrol comes back down to check on everyone to make sure people don't have hypothermia. You know, there's a lot of panic attacks happening at different points on the lamp. I'm panicking now. I'm chopping it up with them. I'm laughing. I'm making jokes because it's not their fault. They're doing a great job. And my husband's like, what are you doing?

We're going to be the last chair off this thing. Because they're like, Chair 98's fine. They're laughing. Yeah, that's a great time. So they finally bring the rope. Yes. There's a rope? It goes under your armp pants.

I won't go into the whole thing. I have a video of me being wasted down that we can put up on our social. Did you make your husband record it? No. We called it a day after that. We didn't do any more, right? You're like, let's get back to the top of the mountain, huh? Yeah, quitter.

Jose, what's been on your mind? Well, they say as an adult, it's harder to make new friends, but I think I may have accidentally done it. Oh, really? Really? That's good. This past weekend, I went over to my best friend's house to watch football. Okay. And he has a one-year-old baby.

Aw. Now, his baby doesn't talk much, and it sleeps a lot. Very shy. Oh, one of those shy non-talking. Yeah. Yeah. But towards the end of the game, my buddy's holding the baby, and we're sitting next to each other on the couch. And there's a commercial on, and I just laugh at the commercial.

And next to me all of a sudden, I hear a little baby laugh. So I look over. And we make eye contact. He's looking at me, right? And so then I'm like, did he just mimic me? So I look him right in the eyes. And I go, ha, ha, ha, ha. And the baby goes, ha, ha, ha.

And I realize it clicked. Like, me and the baby are communicator. It was incredible, because the only times you held my babies, they both screamed and terribly. So anyway, once we realize that I have made this connection for the next 20 minutes, it's just me and the baby laughing back and forth, back and forth. 20 minutes of just laughing? Everyone was so annoyed because they were trying to walk.

So anyway, I did make a new best friend. I did make a new best friend. We have a lot in common. We both like to nap a lot and wear PJs all day long. You can really get each other. I know. So I don't know. Maybe I got to start attending like baby functions at libraries.

Maybe babies are my friend demographic. The snacks are good. Yeah. How to think about the snacks. So exciting for you. Alexis, what's been on your mind? Okay, so when the New Year hit, I was like, all right, I'm going to make some goals for this year. Really?

Good. I thought you're pretty anti-resolution. Well, okay, well, not health goals. I already run a lot. Not career goals. It's just don't get fired. Okay. This trickled down to my family, you know?

And I'm like, how about I try to talk to my family a little more? That's good. That's a good goal. So I call my grandma the other. day. Why? We talked, because it's my grandma. I gotta talk to my sweet grandma. Yeah, once every five years. And I don't see her a lot and we talked for like 30 minutes on the phone. And I'm like, she's like, thanks for calling and catching up. And I was like, yeah, grandma actually like, I'm going to try to start calling once a week. Like that's my new goal. That's good. And then she goes,

why do we make it every two weeks? Oh, that's a little much. Smartly. For Graham thing. And I was like, what are you doing? I was like, no, like, I'm in just once a week, really short call. And she's like, no, pull. And she's like, no, pull. You know what I did your calendar every other week we'll talk. Okay. And I was like, okay, so I didn't miss hear her. She actually doesn't want me to contact her that much. She can only take so many of your stories in a short time.

Can you tell you why? No, no reason. I mean, I guess I'll find out in two weeks. If she answers the phone, that is. Yeah, that's true. She's like, I meant months. Yeah, it gets worse. Who's getting blocked by their mom?

All right, Jeffrey, what's on your mind? I think there might be a trend that's happening that nobody's talking about. What's that? Because I haven't seen it in the media. I haven't seen any articles on it, but I am witnessing it happening firsthand. Okay. Because it started when I was just driving around town recently, and I saw this car passing with a Christmas tree on top of it.

Wait, like an old one? No, it didn't look dead or anything. It looked like a new, healthy tree. Oh. I thought that's kind of weird. But the next day I saw another car with another tree on it. And then I went to the grocery store. I'm walking into the store.

a lady is driving through the parking lot, literally almost runs me over, comes within six inches of, like, plowing me down and I had to jump back. Her head is fully turned toward the grocery store, and I'm like, what's distracting her? Sure enough, there's a display of secondhand, lightly used Christmas trees in front of the store. What? See, exactly. I didn't know about this either. How is it not dead? I don't know.

But they're real trees that people have used during the holiday. returned back to the store when they're done, and now new people can buy them again at a discounted price. Maybe it's for, like, Martin Luther King? Or they're chopping it up for compost or something. You can take them to goat farms and they, like, eat them, right? Don't they like... I don't know what people are using them for,

but they're buying these old-used Christmas trees. Yes. What? I have not seen this. Has anyone else? No. My parents get the flyers of the boys got to come pick up the trees. You've been stuck on top of a chairless for the last seven days.

Of course you haven't. I am just disappointed that our producer. wasn't on top of this, especially because I had to basically risk my life to find it out. Oh, well, you know, I like how the Christmas tree is more important than the near-death experience that you had. Yeah, I want to stay on top of the trends. Okay, all right. That's what's been on my mind, and you can text in 7-8-5-9-2.

Tell us what's been on yours. It's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. It's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning, and we shared what's been on our minds. So, of course, the listeners feel like they should text in and tell us what's been on their minds. I love it. Probably because we asked them to do that. Yeah, we did. Thanks for sending these in.

This first one says, What's on my mind is my HR lady. I'm a knitter, and I knitted a few adult blankets, and I've been thinking about giving her one, but not sure if she would like it. Oh, yeah. Blankets are the best, like adult-sized or adult-themed?

Oh, wow. Good question, Jake. I mean, it is HR, so you do need to be careful. Yeah, is it appropriate to give handmaid gifts HR? Alexis, someone gave you underwear once. So maybe you're the expert. Yeah, she did. Not just one.

It was like a 10-0. pack. Not that she got for Alexis. It's stuff that she didn't want. She gave me other feminine, hygienic products as well. Very thorough. Another text says, just wanted y'all to see what AI says about your show. Apparently, Brooke and Jeffrey have been happily married for almost a decade.

Wow. Congrats you, you two. Always trust AI, guys. I've been saying that for years ever since I read my vows to bro. And finally, one text says, what's on my mind? I started listening about one and a half years ago and yes, have binged the whole show multiple times. My entire life, friends and family have always teased me because I never really laughed. I rarely thought things were funny.

And when I did, I smiled. I'm not kidding when I say that binging your show has brought my laugh out for the first time in my life. Everyone has commented on their own that I actually laugh all the time now. It turns out I do have a sense of humor. I just needed you guys to spark it. Now we have a problem. She's laughing too much. It's overcompensated for your whole life.

Like someone medicate that woman. And look what she did. Now she's making all of us cry. Oh, seriously. Now we're depressed. Thanks a lot. Yeah. We do appreciate all of our listeners.

We really couldn't do this show without you. So we're thankful for the messages that come in like these. And now we're going to bring the mood even farther down right after this. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Most people get excited at the idea of rapidly advancing new technology. Oh yeah, it is pretty cool, man. The only people who don't are Brooke and cheaters. I'm sure that's just like a weird coincidence.

So I don't want AI to take our jobs and now suddenly I'm lumped in with cheaters, Jeff? It's true. Because technology makes our lives easier. Brooke would say too easier. Unemployable. Yep. Your smart speaker hears everything. Your smart doorbell records every one.

No one calls us smart anything. Yep. The smart cell phone tracks you everywhere. Yeah. Which is great unless you're trying to sneak around on your significant other. Oh, no. So while Brooks stands with the cheaters hating technology, we stand with our listeners who got cheated on. Yeah.

As they share their stories about cheaters who. couldn't outsmart their cell phones during a brand new busted. It's coming up right after this. Sneaky husbands, two-time-in-wives, bad boyfriends, even worse girlfriends. They thought they could get away with it,

but now they're about to get busted. In the children's nursery rhyme, hey-diddle-diddle, the cat and the fiddle, we all know the dish runs away with the spoon to have an affair in the pantry. But nobody ever talks about the dishes, wife, the salad bowl, who he left alone in the cupboard while she was pregnant with his baby flatware.

Oh, my goodness. A six-piece set. Wow. Disgusting. I know. What a dead meat. I just wish that salad bowl could come on our show and share the full story of what happened at that debauchrous dinner party with her dirty dish of a husband.

Dude, I hope she got with a saucer just to pay him back. I hope so, too. Because that's what Busted is all about. shaming your exes for their stupid, philandering life choices. And we have a few listeners on the phone ready to tell us their stories of betrayal and extramarital forkplay. Starting with Julie, tell us how you busted your significant other. My mom got back into dating recently, and she asked me to help her set up her up. Okay.

I don't know. I'm sorry. It just worries me when any story starts with your mom when we're talking about cheating. Oh, yeah. Yeah. that together. Did you really help her? Did you sabotage her? No, I did. I helped her set up her app.

Okay. Showing her how to swipe. And while she was doing it, to one of the people, she says, oh, this guy's super cute. Like, he could almost be twins with your boyfriend. Oh, no. Oh. Wait a minute. Please tell me your boyfriend as a twin brother.

Yeah. Yeah. Turns out it wasn't a lookalike. It was my actual boyfriend. No, no. So your mom's like, swipe right. Yeah. Oh, God.

We have the same taste. Yeah, and to make it even more disturbing, he matched with my mom a week later. Wait, what? Yeah. They didn't go out. Please tell me they didn't go out. She swore to me that they never went out. I hope she was telling the truth.

Oh, God. Why is there a part of you that doesn't trust her? Oh, man. That's a tough transition going from boyfriend to father-in-law. Yeah. Rough. Good luck with that, Julie. Let's keep going to Ben.

tell us how you busted your significant other. Okay, so this happened a few years back. I get home from work and I see this fire department's on the second floor of my apartment complex. Oh, no. That's always scary. Somebody's having probably a medical emergency or something. Or they're having a bachelor party up there and it's like very realistic. Stippers are here.

Wow, they're outside the building. This is real. Yeah, maybe. They'll call the fireman, right? Yeah. And they said the elevator got stuck and some people were trapped inside of it. Oh, no. That's scary.

Yeah, I know. Yeah, no, yeah, I felt bad for them. So another half hour goes by. And I hear a bunch of, like, clapping and, like, cheering and stuff. So I open my apartment door and I go see what's going on. And out of the elevator comes my neighbor. Yeah. And with him comes my girlfriend.

Oh. Oh. Oh, they're stuck in there together. Oh. Yeah. Stuck in there together. Yeah, right? Very peculiar.

And she's got hickies on her neck and everything. Oh. Oh, God. They had to keep warm for survival. Is that what it was? He was trying to mouth to mouth, but he kept missing her mouth. Yeah. Oh, geez.

I don't know if they had to keep warm because it was July. Oh. Okay. Oh, you know, it got a little hot and heat in there, I guess you can say. Yeah. Wicked the sweat away. And I'm sorry, how tacky. Hickees are so tacky.

What are you, 12? Yeah, no, it wasn't a good side to see. So I asked, obviously, what the heck happened. Yeah. And, you know what she told me? She had the nerve to say, what else am I supposed to do to pass the time? Oh. Oh.

I'm like, are you kidding me? You don't have any games on your phone? Yeah. You're texting me. Not as fun as this. Oh, that sucks, Ben. I'm sorry, man. We got time for one more.

Finally, let's go to Madison here. Tell us how you busted your significant other. Okay, so I went to Italy with my girlfriend. We were part of this group tour. And at first I was like, okay, this tour guide, this like, man, Italian tour guide is like kind of learning with her. But I'm like, that's in my head. We're here together.

This is like a big romantic getaway. And in Europe, the men are always kind of like overly friendly, it feels like. Especially men who want tips at the end. That's true. Yeah. Fair. Right. That's what I'm assuming.

I'm like, okay, he's being charming. Whatever, whatever, whatever. Yeah. So the next day, though, we're doing this couple's wine tasting and this big group are part of, but we get selected to be in like a special individual room with our own little Somali situation. It was very, very cool. Hey, that's awesome.

That's fun. My girlfriend has to use the bathroom, so I go and, like, hang out there by myself for a second, but then 10 minutes goes by. It's, like, me halfway through a glass of wine, and hers is, like, on touch. Yeah. And I get up and try and find her, and she's, like, back with the tour group on the tour guide's lap. Oh. What? Do you think this is Santa?

I know. It was so bad. After that, we get back to the hotel. I'm like, so what's up with that? And she tells me she's in love with him and wants to move. Italy. Oh, wow. That's a fairy tale. Did she quite a tour?

Eat, pray, love before she went. No, guys, this is like, lesbian nightmare. She did. She married the guy. Oh, my gosh. Are you kidding me? She invited me to the wedding. What? Wait.

In Italy? Did you go? She wanted me to be in the wedding. No. Oh, wow. I never would have met this tour guide if you didn't book us this couple's trip to Italy. Yeah, no. That was kind of. the logic behind it, I'm like, do you see how that might not be?

Oh, no. But I bet the wedding had really good wine. Oh, yeah. And those Italian guys. It's not talking about it. Oh, yeah. Anyway, sorry. Sorry, Madison. We do feel bad for you. But hit up our text board.

7-8-5-9s. If you have a funny story about how you caught your ex-cheating, you could be on the next edition of Busted. We got your phone tab coming up right after this. It's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning, and we're continuing in our week-long event of scam the scammer. prank calls. Yeah, we're getting them.

A lot of credit card debt right now. I took out way too many loans and nobody ever told me that a psychology degree would not equal six figures. Okay, okay, slow down. One person at a time, please. Oh, could you not hear us? I could hear you, but you were talking over each other and it was hard to understand anything you're saying. We're just so relieved that someone is here to help us with all of our debt. Yeah, this is actually really nice. Uh-huh.

Great. So tell me about your debt situation. one at a time, please. Okay. Well, I've been trying to check the checking account because I'm trying to figure out exactly what the balance is. Okay. Okay, okay. Okay.

Okay. Okay. Oh, what's the problem? It's very frustrating to hear both of you speak at the same time. Let's just hear from Melody. Okay, we can do that. We really can. So tell me about your death situation.

Yes. So I encourage some of my. For a high-interest credit card back in 2019, it was 70 to 80% interest, I think, but I'm not sure what APOs. I can't understand you. Oh, so was our phone connection bad? You can't let your husband talk at the same time as you. Oh, well, we're in different rooms. I don't know if you understood that.

We're in different rooms, so I can't see him. I can't see when he starts talking. Well, then go in the other room. Oh, we can't be in the same room right now, though, because I have my cat with me, and he's allergic. Oh, my gosh. man. You have no idea how frustrating this is. I don't know how to solve this and help you in this moment. I mean, he hasn't talked over me in the last 30 seconds. He really is a good listener, right, honey? Yes, I'm trying to be a good listener. See? Okay, fantastic. So let's all three come together.

You be quiet and let's be. Yes, honey, you be quiet, okay. Well, but I think she's talking to me. Right. I'm speaking to you. Yes. Okay. Same. Can one of you please speak to me and tell me your situation while the other one is quiet, please. Yes. So here's the thing. We missed some payments on our 2019. Are you guys really couldn't afford? And we bought it on Craigslist, but I should have checked the car fax.

I don't even know if I can do this. I think she's talking to you, honey. I thought she was talking to you. Oh. I hate you. I hate you both. I have never experienced anything like this in my life. So wait, did you still want our Social Security numbers or?

Sure. Are you laughing because you think this is some kind of joke? I was really trying to help you people. Oh, with our financial vaporization. Oh, yeah. Correct. Okay. Yeah, I don't want my finances.

You guys are in bad shape and you're going to be really sorry when you find out what's going on in your bank account. Oh, our bank account? How do you know a lot about that? Oh, yeah. Because actually, I checked our FICO score the other day. I'm not doing it to get a lot. I just was worried that somebody would get into it. It's insane.

Brooken Jeffrey's phone taps on the 20s. On this show, we're definitely no strangers to bizarre first dates. That's for sure. That is so true. Or to bizarre first dates with total strangers. Hello. It's almost the same thing. Or just weird stuff that goes down while you're out with somebody.

Yes. But today we encounter a first of its kind because our listener starts his hang out with a woman he met online. Then an hour later, that woman's gone. And he ends up with someone completely different sitting at his table. What the heck? How, why, and more importantly, who? You're going to find out all those in a brand new second date update. Yeah.

Next. Brook and Jeffrey in the morning. Second date update. Brooke, back in your dating heyday, or as you sometimes call it, your revolving door years, safe to say you had some interesting dates and relationships that ended in, like, bizarre ways. Okay. But have you ever started a date with one person and then ended it with a completely different one? I would take talent I don't have. Okay.

Family reunions do not count, by the way. Gross, Jeff. You're so gross. No, I only ask because apparently that's what happened to our listener, Ethan, who has reached out requesting our help today. Ethan, welcome to the show, ma'am. Hey, how are you? Oh, man. How do you go from one date to another in the same night?

That is, that's some gymnastics. Yeah, it was probably one of the most confusing and strange dates I've been on. Can I ask, are you interested in getting a hold of date number one or date number two? Yeah. The original person that I was going on the date with, that's who I'm interested. Interesting. Got it. I thought it'd be who you ended the night with.

Well, let's start at the beginning. Tell us what happened. Okay, so I matched with this girl named Brianna. From the initial chat, she was very friendly. She has a great smile. And so we set up the first date. Just go to this little bar and grill. Okay.

I got there first. So, you know, I got the table. Good. Good, man. She showed up. She looked great. She compliments me, too. Like, my outfit and, like, you know, it's very rare for the woman to give the compliment first.

Dude, never happens. Yeah. She's like, I love that shirt. I'm like, you know, thank you. Wow. I feel like all the women listening should give more compliments. Well, I do if the guy's actually stylish. Oh, I mean, you've got to work for it.

I'll compliment a stylish guy. Just saying. Everyone got to be stylish. All right. Okay. So after the compliments, how did the, dinner, drinks? Like, what were we doing?

Yeah, so, you know, we get a drink and we're chatting for a little bit, going really well, getting to know each other, you know, better than I would say most other dates from the get-go. Okay. So you're feeling at this point, okay, this could be something. Yeah, so waitress comes back and we're pouring our food order in, and that's kind of one thing, you know, start to change here. Uh-oh.

Oh, okay. How? So she, like, looks at her phone, and she's like, I hope you don't mind. my mom's going to be stopping by. What? That's not the end of the world, though I'd be like, oh my God, I loved me your mom. On the first date? Hey, if she thinks that he's good enough to just have mom swing by and drop something off,

I don't know. Why is mom stopping by? I don't know. I thought she was joking at first, right? But a couple of minutes later, mom shows up. What? Oh, no. She introduces herself.

Her name's Debra, and then she pulled a chair up. No. Oh, she's joining this date. No, she sits down with you? Yeah, like, and this is right when the waiters at the table and we're about to order food, so the waitress not knowing anything, she asked the mom what she wants to eat too. Yeah. So the mom's like, oh, I'll just get something to go.

That still means she's going to sit there and tell the to go order. Yeah. And it means you're paying for that, which is fine. You take care of the mom. Is this normal to Brianna? Can you tell? I don't really know. Like, she doesn't seem like it's off-putting or anything.

anything and like, how was the mom? Was she pleasant? Was she weird? Jose wants to know if she's single. Yeah, because he is interesting. Yeah, she was like super nice. Very similar to Brianna. Very talkative, approachable. That's good. Nothing out of the ordinary.

So at what point, you know, when does mom leave? That's the thing. So 50 minutes later, food comes out. Brianna's eating and like, she looked at her phone and she's like, oh, I got to go. What? Who? Brianna or the mom? Brianna? No.

Wait, what? She's like, I got to go. She asks her mom to box the food up. She gives me a hug goodbye. She says, like, oh, we'll talk later. Right? No apology. No explanation.

She said sorry, but she was just kind of like rushing out of there. Like an emergency or she had to give to something. What? Oh, my gosh. Okay, so now at this point, Brianna has left the table, and it's just you and Brianna's mom having dinner together. Yes. It has to be some of a test with, like, how her mom is reading you after she's leaving.

It does feel like this, like let the mom figure this. Yeah. No. That must have been so awkward for you. It was a little bit. What kind of saved me is the mom's to go food arrived. And so that kind of like signaled the end of, I guess, the date, if you will. How did the date end?

Was there a kiss? No, it's mom single? Is this like if me and my mom went out and we're like, all right, who gets, who's he a better fit for? That would be a crazy way to set somebody out. How did you and Brianna's mom leave things? So, like, we walked out together. The mom gives me a hug. And I'm just kind of like, what just happened?

Yeah, you got like strapped out. But it sounds like you already passed the paternal interview portion of the dating process. So that's good news. Wait, Brianna hasn't reached out to you after this? We've been texting here and there since that night. Okay. Okay. But not as much as I like.

Okay. I see. It feels different, you're saying. Yeah, but the issue is that her mom is texting me more than Brianna. Wait, her mom has your phone number? How did that happen? I guess Brianna gave it to her. Say what.

She was just like, hey, great to meet you the other night. And then she asked me how's my days going. Wow. That sounds like a post date test. Yeah, that's like a follow-up. And why would if the mom was going to text you, it would be on a group chat, right? Like, it would be with Brianna for sure. It would be more appropriate for sure.

Brooke sounds like she already knows exactly how things are going to go when her kids start doing. You get that group chat going. Any boy, your daughter, text, you're in that group chat. I'm just going to be in a disguise secretly from another table watching them. Oh, you don't actually join them. That part crosses the line. That's normal. I see.

So let's try to bring your dating life back to normal when we call Brianna here. I can't wait for this. And we'll ask her what's going on between the two of you when we do your second date update right after this. Hold on. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Second date update. If you missed it, Ethan just told us about one of the stranger first dates

that we've ever covered on this show. I honestly can't believe he wants to see this woman again. I mean, honestly. It's out there where he went out with a woman named Brianna, and in the middle of it, Brianna's mom showed up to the restaurant. Which honestly, that part isn't even that mind-blowing. We've heard of it happening before.

Totally. She's not by. show that that's like normal. I know, we're like, that's cool. We thought she was just going to get it to go order and go. Yeah. Drop something off maybe. No, the head scratching part was where Brianna got a text mid-dinner,

and she suddenly had to go, leaving Ethan to finish the rest of his date alone with Brianna's mom. And Briana's mom is the one that's been texting him more. Right. So the good news is the rest of the date went great. He even got a mom hug at the end of it. So that's got to feel good, right? Ethan, that mom already approves of you dating her daughter. Ah.

Yeah, that's one way to look at it. Oh, my God. I'm just trying to be optimistic here. Can I ask, how many texts a day do you think you're getting from Brianna's mom? Probably, like, four or five, like, kind of, you know, throughout the day, you know? And how many are you getting from Brianna? Like one every, like, three or four days. Oh, man.

Maybe we should just call the mom. Honestly, she's the one that's going to want to go out with you. The mom's trying to feel you out. I don't want to talk to the mom. I want to talk to Brianna. No, moms love getting phone calls from people. Oh, they do. I don't know.

This is a family that has wild boundaries. Or no boundaries. I'm really eager to talk to either one of them. So let's call up Brianna first. We'll see if she answers. Here we go. Hello. Hey, is this Brianna?

Yes, thank you. Hey, Brianna. We are so excited to talk to you. Yes. That's an understatement because you're on a radio show right now. It's called Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Okay. What?

Yeah. Yeah. I know it might be a little unusual for you, but we do this segment. It's called The Second Date Update. And we're trying to help out one of our listeners that you went to dinner with recently. Okay. It's a guy named Ethan. What's the problem?

I don't understand why you all are reaching out about him? Well, there's no problem. just Ethan's a little bit confused about what's going on between the two of you right now. Because he told us that he felt a really strong connection with you. He was so excited about you. Like you're cute. You have a great smile. Wonderful personality.

He is so sweet. He was really nice, too. He was very nice. Oh, yeah. He mentioned that you brought that up. And he said that he had a great time, not just on the app, but on the date with you. And then he said your mom showed. up.

Yeah. That was really nice. She happened to be in the area and she could stop by and order some food with us. Wait. Okay. She happened to be, that wasn't like planned that she would swing by? Not necessarily planned. My mom, she just went through divorce and actually just moved to be closer to me.

And so just go out, get to know the town and things like that. And when she was out and texting, I let her know where I was at the date with Ethan and thought it would be nice to stop by. So that's what happened. Dude, that was so nice of Ethan to buy her mom dinner. Yeah. What a good guy. Gentleman thing to do. We're trying to read between the lines here.

And maybe you just need to tell us, like, you weren't trying to set your mom up with Ethan. Right? No, no, no. Okay. All right. We didn't think so, but we just had to get that out there. I definitely thought so. Why did you?

Speak for yourself. Why did you leave? Why did you have to leave in the middle of dinner? Oh, so he told you that. Okay. Well, he was left with your mom. That's a pretty big plot point in the date night. Yeah.

So when my mom got there, it just seemed like they were kind of having a fun conversation. And he seemed like a nice guy for her to be friends with. And I thought, you know, but the conversation. continue with them and I could find something else to do so I wouldn't feel like I was interrupting. Wait, what? Wait, you left so that your mom could hang out with Ethan? You're trying to get your mom a friend.

Like a foodie. In that case, you know, if she's friends and has more of a social life, then I can have more of a social life and get out and start dating more. You're pounding your mom off onto a new person so that she can hang out and you can have independence. Not any person Ethan he's super nice Oh no the nice guys finished last thing is like screaming right here Last nice guys finish first with moms I guess

We'll see how nice he's still feeling When we get him on the phone because he's actually on the other line right now Wanting to talk to you Brianna Oh So he heard that all of that Yeah everything He knows the plan now So Ethan are you there

Hello, hey Brianna It's awkward Hi Ethan Yeah, so That's what happened there It wasn't intentional in any way But it just kind of was on my part to leave Oh wow

Yeah, but like the day was going well We were viving on our date there you know, we both had a great conversation. So why would you do that? I know, we were. It's just, it was really nice to watch it blossom, this friendship blossoming with my mom and you. What?

There's no 20-something-year-old man that wants to be friends with somebody's mom. Please don't judge Ethan that way, okay? He can decide for himself. That's true. And they have been texting a lot. He told me, you guys have been. talking like a couple of times throughout the day.

Oh, Ethan. That is a good point. You are answering all of her mom's text messages. Mom or new BFF? What do you want to call? Yeah, exactly. What's her name in your phone? Brianna's mom. Oh, right. Okay, we haven't got to that. Okay. I mean, are we, do you want to be friends with Brianna's mom? Yeah, what do you want more? Friendship with Brianna's mom or a romance with Brianna.

Can't you have both? Are both not on the table? Yeah, I'm going to say no. for me because I just can't see myself dating one of my mom's friends. No! No! No! No! You set them up! That is wild. This is wild to me. Yeah, dude. To all of us, bro.

You got friend zone to the mom. That's a new level. My mom zone. Breonna, you were so nice and kind and different than all the other girls I've gone on dates with. And you know who's nicer than me? My mom. What do you think I got it for? You were also going to

Crette, do some nice little day dates and things like that. You called it a date? Uh-oh. Oh, day-dates. You guys know what I mean. It wasn't like a date like that. No, we understand this is very, very sweet.

It's like a play date. In a strange way. Ethan, I want to be very clear with you. My mom is not attracted to you in any way. Okay. Okay, well, I felt a little harsh and unnecessary. No, that's not good news, Alexis. That's more of an insult. Anything that's been said.

She's like, by the way, don't try anything. So I called this radio station to try and set us up on the second date. And out of this, I'm just getting that your mom doesn't even think I'm good looking. He's ugly, but he's sweet. Everybody in their friend group, they need to have that ugly friend. Absolutely. So that they look better. He's not ugly.

Ethan. You're hot and handsome, I'm sure. Brooke has never seen you, Ethan. Hey. I'm also a. Mom. Yeah. Maybe Brooke wants to be friends with you.

I'm good, dude. He dresses really well. Oh, wow. Stylish guys get compliments. And mom points. So we... What is the question, Jeff? I mean, normally the question would be, would you and Brianna like to go out again?

But it sounds like that's already going to be a no. So instead, I'm going to ask, Ethan, would you like to go out on a friend date to put-put-put-golf with Brianna's mom? Wow. And I guess we would have to. fun that. That'd be so cute. Well, I'm going to answer for my mom. I'm going to say a yes.

Oh, okay. Now, Ethan, it's all up to you. Oh, boy. I'm sorry, your mom is nice, but it's going to be a no for me. Oh, my God. I didn't see that coming. Friendship. Doesn't last sometimes.

Who's going to tell the mom? It's not going to be me. Ethan, you're an adult. You need to practice to her. No. Oh, my God. Ethan. Not the breakup tank.

What have you gotten yourself into? What are you doing to me, Brianna? Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Man, I feel like a failure. Why? Why? Because he got just mom zoned on top of being friend zoned by the girl? No, not even that.

That's the first time I've asked for a date with someone's mom and they said no. Oh. I always get yes on mom dates. That's true. Yeah. Is it me? Did I do something? wrong? I feel like I could have done better.

It's not you. Remember, this wasn't a day they wanted friends for mom. I know, but I could have sold it more. Like, what if he was able to do laundry at her mom's house? And she showed him how to use those downy scented beads in his load. So suddenly, Jose wants to go over the mom's house. I was going to say. Everybody

wants to be her friend now. Yeah, it didn't work out. That was wild. No, that was maybe one of the craziest ones we've ever done. Her mom must be so obnoxious that she'll pawn him off on anybody. I don't need to be mean She's just like

Yeah, just take the date I don't even care You need friends so bad mom Get my mom out of here Seriously The next time we ask somebody If they want to hang out With somebody else's mom

We better get a yes Okay, okay So if you're thinking about calling in Yes Remember that You can always email us If you want help With your dating life

Whether it involves your mother or not Yes Reach out to the show We'll call that person Who's not calling you back Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning In America We love

love to sue people. But apparently they like to do it in Italy too. Who would have thought? It's a Brooklyn Jeffrey in the morning, but I know this because a Sicilian man named Salvatore Cotini is going after a restaurant. Not because he got sick from their food. There wasn't any altercation with a waiter or problems with the staff. In fact, he had an absolutely lovely meal when he was there.

Was he suing it because it was too good? No, the issue was he didn't realize that while he was, was dining there, the restaurant was filming a promotional video. Showing off the romantic ambiance and the patrons enjoying their tasty cuisine and drinking their fine wines.

And Salvatore just happened to be there that night and was not aware he was being filmed. Okay. But guess who did find out his wife who saw the video on TikTok a few weeks later and spotted

Salvatore dining with his mistress. Oh, he got caught shooting. He's got to take the mistress to the good restaurant. Like, take his wife at least, you know? His wife wouldn't appreciate it the way his mistress does. But you can see in the video, Salvatore, cheering cheering whine glasses, and then leaning in to smooch this other woman.

Wow. And they got a kiss in the commercial, too? It's like a perfect scene. It makes me want to go there even more, I know. It's so romantic. You could date anybody there. Yeah. And thanks to that video, Salvatore is now getting divorced.

And he's suing the restaurant for breaking up his marriage. I like that it's the restaurant's fault. Obviously, it's so romantic. It wasn't his fault that he was caught there. And I'm sure he wouldn't have gotten caught had it not been for them. Exactly. Our condolences go out to Salvatore. We hope that he takes down his wife in the upcoming lawsuit.

And we will keep you updated on this grave Italian injustice. Yeah. Laser stories coming up right after this. It's the radio segment that's helping gym bros hydrate even harder with a new non-FDA approved beverage called H2BRO. Yeah. Water infused with creatine, testosterone, and a Romanian steroid harvested from killer sandworms.

Oh, yeah. Make your muscles jealous of themselves. Wow. Jim chicks are going to love this. My right arm is so mad at my. left arm. It's laser stories. This segment where we read, weird news stories around the globe, just like everyone else does, except we've got

a laser. Those other water weaklings just don't. This first laser story is out of the happiest place on Earth. Now, I need to qualify this. Some are saying this story is fake news. Others are saying it's real and it got leaked by somebody over at the mouse house.

Okay. We'll be the judge of that. A news article recently came out that said Disney was offering select customers a $10 million park ticket. Okay, I already think it's false. Yeah, what does that even mean? It's essentially a forever lifetime pass where you and up to three other guests can go to

any Disney property on any day for the rest of your life. Wait, double rainbow. Oh my God. Jeff, on any continent? On anywhere. Whoa. Any Disney property, anything. Dude, if I could go to the Japan one, that would be amazing.

How could that possibly be worth? $10 million. Because, Brooke, on top of that, it also allows you to stay at any Disney-owned hotel absolutely free. I mean, after the $10 million you pay totally free to stay at their hotel. Because it's like a thousand bucks a night. It really is. Like, I look at the prices and I'm like, sorry kids, we're staying at the roadside motel across the street, which was awesome. If you do this, there is no required checkout times, meaning you could live at the Disneyland resort and go to the park for free every single day. Well, you don't live in your own house.

It was my last 10 million. Yeah. The perk that has most people interested, the $10 million ticket also gives gas access to all of the secret Club 33 locations. Now we are talking. Even if right now we said, yep, let's get together a million dollars. There's a wait list to get into Club 33. There's hundreds of people with millions of dollars waiting before you. This surpasses any wait list to get you free access.

People wait their whole lives to get into this. Why, though? Classism is part of Disney magic. Always remember that. It really is Classism. I don't see the allure. Sorry. If the average cost of one day at Disneyland for a family of four is $1,200, this ticket pays for itself after only 8,33 visits, which is only 22 years if you go to Disneyland every single day over that span.

You just need to live at Disney. It's a bargain. At the end of 22 years, you're going to go to Disney. you're not going to have enough friends to use up the three extra passes that you're getting. Well, keep in mind, this ticket does last a lifetime. So if you buy it for your newborn, that could easily get them their money's worth over the course of their life. Honey, you don't get college, but you do get Disney. What a great way to start.

Let's go to your next laser story out of the Netherlands. A woman named Mariki Voslouge was sad that her teenage son didn't want to cuddle with her anymore. Ain't nobody got time for that. Oh, man, that time comes too quickly. He was 14 and wanted to spend more time with friends. Oh, buddy. And he wasn't home as much. So Mariki's answer to not having him close anymore

was to knit a life-sized version of him that she could hug constantly. Oh, my God. Okay, is she selling him on Etsy because I'm preparing for my future. Brooks already in. Wait till you see the pictures. I'm going to put these up on our Insta stories at Brooke and Jeffrey so you can see what we're working with.

Oh my gosh. Do you want to describe what you're seeing in these photos? It's actually pretty incredibly. How talented. It's very talented in a creepy way. Yeah, I mean, the face is a little unnerving because it's a crocheted face, so it kind of looks like one of those like killer masks for some reason. They definitely look haunted if you ask me.

I mean, the crocheted teenage boy isn't on his phone, so that's nice. Yeah, well. He's on a crochet phone? finished product is a weird yarn child with a hat, pants, and a sweater, along with headphones around his neck. You'd be weirded out if I had that next to me? At this point, Brooke, I don't think we can get any weir with you. But the mom says her son actually liked the idea and even helped her make it.

Yeah. You got to choose what outfit she's going to put you in. Also, it's like, yeah, if it gets you out of my hair, mom, heck yeah. She's gotten so much response online, both positive and negative, that she's, She wants to turn it into a business idea called knit a teen. Okay. So just send in a few photos of your 13-year-old, and for just $99, you'll get a fully knitted version of them back in six to eight weeks.

How is that only $99? How many hours? I mean, less than a blanket. It's huge. She's like a live person taxidermy. Yeah. It's like while they're still here, enjoying as a doll. That's it.

Let's go to your next laser story out of Word World. It's often a compliment when someone, calls you a celebrity doppelganger. Hmm. Even if you know you're more of a poor man's version of whatever that celebrity is. Yeah. But now there's a special slang word for that. What's that?

Gen Zers have been tossing it around. It's called choppelganger. Oh yeah! Chopelganger. It means you look like someone's doppelganger, but a little ugly. Yeah. That's really funny. And yes, I know most of us know this, but if you don't,

it's choppelganger because the word chopped is now being used to to call people or things unattractive or undesirable. So Choppelganger's been picking up steam in recent months after somebody on social media apparently coined the term last year. It's perfect. For example, on TikTok, a woman claims people refer to her as Mick Jagger's chopperganger. And she said, if you think someone has a chopper ganger, just keep it to your dang self. Isn't Mick Jagger himself a chopper ganger?

Feels like it. I mean. He's hardly a human at this point. Let's go to your final laser story out of Techtown USA. Samsung pulled 2,000 people and asked for features they hope their phone will have by the year 2036. So here's the top ones, number four, that it'll last an entire week on a single charge. I want someone to steal it, but I invented this in my head years ago. One day, every room will have a charging signal.

That doesn't sound like cancer waiting to happen. I'm telling you, it's going to happen. Nikola Tesla was actually working on that before the government had him murdered. See? Funfax. Come on, guys. Universal charging. True story.

We start with fake news and end with conspiracy. Someone's going to be a billionaire. It's true. Look it up. Number three thing we'd want our phones to do by 2036? Real-time language translation. Ah. That's getting close.

Actually accurate translation. That would be incredible. Need it. Number two, 3D holograms. Those are phones that project holograms so you could have a 3D meeting or, quote, manipulate objects in 3D. Okay. We don't need those pictures. Somebody does. And the number one thing we'd want our phones to do in the next decade is anticipate our thoughts and auto insert them without us having to type. Wow.

Mind-reading, Brooke. It does that when it comes to buying stuff for me. But it should know what you want to say to your mom on her birthday without you actually having to say. Oh, like, you'll get a text. It's like, thanks for the birthday. And you're like, I didn't say happy. Oh, thank you, phone. Yes.

You could literally text your family and friends without lifting a finger. Without actually being involved. Yes. 2036 is going to be amazing. Cool. And lonely, Jeff. Absolutely. Regardless, this guy is stoked about it.

Just imagine how many 3D hologram rebocs he can project up onto his bedroom ceiling in 2036. The future is glorious. And that sound means laser stories has come to an end for the day. We'll do it again. Same time on Friday. We're joined this morning by Stacey, a brand new player who's always wanted to try to go against Brooke because she says, quote, some days she's good at trivia.

Oh, depends on the day. What type of trivia you might ask. Stacey says she knows some Disney characters. Oh, yeah. So will she get lucky and maybe get a goofy? Who knows? Brooke, how are you with your Disney characters? Is that a strength of yours? Can you name the

seven dwarves? All of them right now? I bet I could. Do you want me to start? It takes a while. I think we should talk to Stacy instead. Brooke quit on trying to name the characters. I could. Yeah, I totally know that, but you know what? We probably don't want to do that. Stacey, you can't tell she's afraid of you already,

can't you? Frowny one? No, that's grumpy. Grumpy. Hey, how about this? Stacey, if you were one of the seven dwars, which personality would you be? Maybe happy.

She sounds like Confucii more because she isn't sure if she's happy or not. Is that dopey? Which one is confusing? I don't know. Okay, but you definitely be working on mind. Classic confucii doesn't know. I knew it, Stacey. We got to make a new one now.

Yeah, let's get to the trivia game. Hopefully you're smarty for this one because you've got 30 seconds on the clock to answer as many questions as possible. Well, if you don't know when you can say pass, but you have to beat her outright if you want to win. Are you ready? I'm ready. You got this. Your time starts now.

It's like a great date and a chihuahua. Okay, that's cute. And it says that you enjoy TV shows for fun. Do you have any recommendations for us? Anything we should be watching? Well, right now I'm into Fallout. So, yeah, there's a second season of fallout. That's the one based on the video game, right?

Yeah. Yeah. It's pretty Disney adjacent, right? I don't think so. Is that appropriate for your dogs to watch? My dogs, they don't care. Okay. Okay.

I mean, how would you rate your experience, Stacey? I always like to know as a new player? It was a little nerve-wracking, but I enjoyed it. Okay. All right. Well, this was great radio. Wait for Jeff to close it out. I was waiting for a better question from Brooke.

But I guess we'll get that during the next edition of this show. Okay. It's better than that, dude. Yeah. Well, maybe that's the peak. Radio has peaked. Wanted to know how she felt, Jeff. Well, Stacey, we're glad that you're feeling the way you're feeling.
