I cannot get over Alexis's story from what's on your mind today. It will live rent free forever in my head. Me either. I, yeah, I went home ashamed, embarrassed. I was shaking with panic. It was not a good look for me. And I can never step in the mall again. You have to have to listen to at least the brandy what's on your mind.

We've also got a new second date. This is your full hour podcast with Brick and Jeffrey in the morning. but Alexis's story makes today absolutely worth it. I'm glad you feel that way. Please comment. Please comment because we love to read your comments. What are you seeing right now? Well, speaking of that, Ziggy B said, I love listening on Wednesdays

because my favorite part of the show is what's on your mind. I love hearing what goes on in your lives. It makes my life seem normal. Yeah, totally. You're so smart compared to us. Yeah, you are. You're going to definitely feel that today. Your brand new full hour starts right now.

World Cup is still the big big. talk around here. It's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. And I'm just going to go over a few notes you should probably be aware of. About a week ago, a European tourist went viral over his love of Buckees, the big gas station slash mega convenience store chain down in the south. He was so happy when he got food at one in the morning. Oh, yeah.

All the Europeans, in fact, are discovering Bucky's food, including a dude from Germany going off about their big bags of beaver nuggets. Yeah, the beaver nuggets are so fun. Which are just sweet, crunchy corn puffs, essentially. That's an understatement. But again, that was all a week ago. So what has Buckees done since then? They've leased a complimentary shuttle van to go stop at all the major hotels in the Dallas area

so that they can bring tourists straight to and from Bucke's seven days a week. Dude, that's genius. I love that a gas station is finally helping people who don't have cars. Yeah. That's a good point. smart business move. And we mentioned before how TSA has a ranch problem right now with people trying to drink ranch at the security line and smuggle ranch bottles back home to Europe.

Is ranch the greatest thing that America has ever done? It may be hard to argue with. All of this, along with the other American food discoveries that are happening right now, has launched a brand new meme called the FIFA 15. Oh, because they're skating in weight. Similar to the college freshman 15, but instead of 18-year-olds on campus dining halls, this is international football fans discovering the heart-clogging joy of American food. It's so true.

They're probably in the merch areas being like, why would they offer a 4XL jersey? Yeah. You're going to find out. Yeah. And Americans say only 4XL? Exactly. That's tiny. Before you leave, ask yourself, have you gained the FIFA 15?

because if you haven't, you're doing America wrong. Oh, man. We'll show you how to do America right by putting dog shock collars on our necks and answering trivia during the shock collar question of the day. Jake, let's show the Europeans how it's done. Okay, today is National Farmer Day. Oh. It's where we admit that people who can keep a plant alive are officially superior beings.

Absolutely. We love the farmers. While the rest of us are out here murdering succulents and forgetting to water our basil for the 13th, week in a row. No, just get it new. Farmers are casually tilling 700 acres of land and

keeping our entire food ecosystem running. That's why today, in honor of the people who somehow turn dirt, seeds, and sunlight into French fries and cream pies, we're going to find out how much you really know about farm food during a special

not crappy, but croppy edition of plenty of 20. All right. Let's start with the woman who loves crop tops, cropped hair, and cropping X's out of her photos. That's Alexis. The Crop Queen. Yeah, nine.

Alexis, for hundreds of years, Europeans believed which crop was poisonous and refused to eat it. Was it onions? Oh, thank God, for multiple choices. Carrots, potatoes, or beef jerky. Fun fact, beef jerky grows on trees in Europe. Wow. How is that? potatoes or beef jerky?

It's kind of nice. You got a road trip, just pull over, grab some jerky off the trees. That's right. It's a forest of beef trees. Yeah, there we go. Um, onions. Maybe because onions made you cry. They thought it was like a poisonous thing.

That's not bad. Good logic. Let's go onions. Shout out to Shrek. Alexis says onions. Oh, I'm sorry, Alexis. Potato was actually the answer. They arrived in Europe in the 1500s, but many people believe they caused disease

and avoided eating them for general. And then they end up being the best. Yeah. Nothing bad ever happened with potatoes ever again. I just got to fry them, Europe. All right, we're O for one. Brooke, we're over to you. Ooh, 17.

Brooke, what crop did ancient Egyptians sometimes use as payment for workers? Was it cliff bars? Cucumbers, garlic, or uncrustables? Interesting. I'd work pretty hard for an uncrustable. Yes, I mean, it was like one of the wonders.

of the world is how they made the incrustables. I'm going to have to take that one off the list, though. Interesting. And we're going between garlic and... Cucumbers? Cucumbers. You know, I feel like I'd be disowned by my father who hates cucumbers with a really unwarranted passion if I said it.

So I'm going to say they took payment in the form of garlic. She's right. Garlic was highly valued in ancient Egypt and was sometimes given to workers as part of their wages. Yummy. Stinky paycheck. All right, Jose, we're talking about crops because it's National Farmers Day. How about a number from you?

Ooh, let's go five. Which crop can absorb more water than almost any common farm crop, making it useful in flood-prone areas. Is it watermelons, pumpkins, rice, or tapioca balls exclusively for overpriced boba drinks? Well, my first instinct being a foodie was rice. just because you flood rice fields on purpose. Rice can soak up. It can like 10 times its original size or five times.

So I'm just going to go with my instinct and say rice. He's sticking with rice. Just like rice, he's sticking to it. Jose is right. It's grown in flooded fields called patties. Yeah. And can thrive where many other crops would drown. Crazy.

Especially the boba. Jeffrey, we're over to you. If you get this right, Alexis is getting shocked. It's the only one with something wrong. Ooh. At the risk of being controversial, number two. Which crop was a real? originally so small that early versions were about the size of a cherry tomato.

Oh. Was it an avocado? Cute. Was it coming back for another question, watermelon? Hey, tiny watermelon. What about another one, cucumber coming back again? Or tick-tacks. Those are still too many?

Well, size does matter in crops and other areas of life. I've learned that. What's something that started small and shriveled, but a man came by. made it big and thick and juicy. Okay, Jeff. We're still talking about crops, right, Jake? Yeah. Okay.

I thought I read somewhere Tic Tacs were like four times the size that they used to be in like the 1930s. I don't know if it falls under the category of crops, though. Okay. I'm glad you came to that conclusion. I'm going to say that it is cucumbers. Used to be little tiny ones and now they're big, fat, and juicy. Jeffrey says cucumbers?

I'm sorry, Jeffrey. ancient watermelons were tiny and bitter. Farmer spent thousands of years breeding them into giant sweet melons that we know today. I'd love to eat them like grapes. Dude, it's like a melon ball. After all my math, we need to go to a time breaker between Brooke and Jose. Brooke, we're going to you for this one. If you get it right, you're safe.

If you get it wrong, Jose is our champion. Bring it on, farmer, Jake. What fruit, please, Brooke. What fruit grows on the largest herb in the world? Is it banana? Is it watermelon? Is it pineapple? Or is it Skittles?

I'm actually almost positive that it's banana. It is. You're almost positive. Do you want to lock it out? Brooke says bananas. She's correct. Banana trees aren't actually trees. They're giant herbs that can grow 20 feet tall.

And that means Brooke has one today's Plenty of 20. So Baruch gets to choose. To get shocked, they're going to be singing Old McDonald's. Oh, for all the farmers on Farmers Day. Who's it going to be, Brooke? I don't think Jeff's ever been to a farm, so let's make him sing. Three days in a row being shocked is a little bit abusive, but I'm going to keep going for it.

Maybe you should go to more farms. Old McDonald had a farm, E.I, E, I, O. And on his farm, he had a cow. E.I. E.I. Oh, that was your shock collar question of the day. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning You know how some parents put their kids on safety leashes? Yeah.

The other day, management asked me to start doing that to Jose. I can see this. Just to keep track, make sure he doesn't get distracted, roam off, get his tongue stuck to the glass of the break room freezer again. So yesterday, he wore a little backpack, and I just held onto the attached rope, and we went everywhere together. Yes, like a little monkey tail. That's all.

It's the bunny system. It was great. We went in the elevator, the conference room, the bathroom together. That was fun. And so while you think I would know everything that he's been up to lately, he did gnaw through his leash and escape for just a couple hours. Dang it, Jeff. And I don't know where he went, so I'm very excited to hear what I missed as we go around the room and share what's been on our minds coming up right now.

It's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. I was on a diabetes awareness website. Okay. Oh, good. And it asked me if I would accept cookies. And I thought, is that a trick question? The irony. But the question I'm about to ask everybody is not a trick.

It's just, what's on your mind? There it is. Where we go around the room to see what each member of the show has been thinking about lately. Starting with Brooke. Brooke, what's on your mind? Well, you know, I'm switching internet providers at our house, right? Fun. Yeah, not very exciting.

Not a big deal. I didn't happen to time it correctly right. So there's going to be like a three-day gap when one service ends and the other. one starts. I hate that. Like when you move, you got to be sure it overlaps. You know, big deal, whatever. I didn't really I didn't even think that was that big of a deal until we

casually mention it to our children. Yeah, that's the end of a world. They are gobsmacked. They're like, what do you mean? And I'm like, it just won't be there. Yeah. And they're like, Mom, what does that mean? They don't know what life is like without it. The apocalypse is coming. Yeah. They think

that we're pranking them at first. I'm like, it's not a joke. Yeah. It's just not internet. That would be a good prank. You gotta write that one down. How are we going to watch TV?

And I'm like, you won't. Oh. Or you can go back into our DVD collection. Ew. Oh, they want to do that. Yeah. There's dust on those. They're like, how will I text my friends?

Oh, God. So my son is gaming on whose house he's going to stay at. It does make our own unlivable. Oh, yeah. That is. Oh, yeah, you're a beautiful home. But just thoughts and prayers to my children. Yes.

They endure three whole days without wife. I wish them to back. Oh, man. Maybe we should start a go-fund me for them. So they can buy their own in those three-day periods. Seriously. Jose, what's been on your mind? Well, the World Cup is happening in our city.

Yes. And I was invited to some swanky Starbucks invite-only World Cup party over the weekend. And I have no idea how I got invited. Yes. So I get in there and I immediately see all these really like, like kind of hoity-to-to-y people. And rumors start, and they're saying that some celebrities may show up to this event. And you're like, I'm already here. Yeah, I'm like, what, celebrities?

This is cool. So I'm mingling. I'm eating the free food. I turn around. An NFL wide receiver great, Chad Ochosinko just walks up right behind me. And it's like, hey, what's up? And I'm like, oh my gosh. Oh, you recognized him.

Yeah. He's huge. He's a big, I mean, some people would recognize him. I mean, I probably wouldn't. I'm just saying. Like, I know his name. but I wouldn't pick him out of a podcast now. He's a big soccer guy, but he was huge in the NFL

for a long time, and he's like hosting this event, apparently. And I'm like, oh my God, so then I go, Chad, can I get a picture? And he's like, yeah, yeah, yeah, come on. That's cool. And I walk up, and as I pull my phone and I'm like, hey, can I get a video real quick? And he's like, no, you just ask for a selfie. Oh, my bad, my bad, I'm so sorry.

So I kind of like scrambled my phone and I like get a quick picture. And I don't know why, but he's like, all right, thanks. He pats me on the back, starts to walk. And I'm just like, oh man, you look so good. Oh, my God. And then I look, I'm like, did I just hit on him? Did I just accidentally kind of put the vibe out?

It's a lot of touching. Yeah, and I touched him on the back. He didn't turn around. He didn't acknowledge me. And I was so embarrassed. I ended up leaving like 10 minutes later. I was like, you know what? You're actually avoiding him all night.

Yeah. Just make it more awkward. So, yeah, that's how I dipped out after embarrassing myself. Oh, that's good. But the picture came out good. Oh yeah, yeah, he posted it online. No one will ever know how weird that encounter was. You didn't tag him?

No, heck no, I didn't tag. Are you kidding me? Alexis, what's been on your mind? Well, you guys know I like to try to save money on things. What? It's so I... Okay, make other people pay for stuff. Yes, it's over.

I was shopping at Lulu Lemon. Oh, way to save money, Alexis. Well, one of my friends has a discount there, okay? So I was like, oh, I'll just use my friend's discount. So I go to checkout and they ask for the time. phone number and I'm like leaning into it and I'm like oh well I just got a new phone so I don't remember it so give me a minute new phone but your number doesn't change you're pretending to be heard right yeah so full up the number it takes me a minute I give him the number

and then they go so are you Pedro it's a guy's number and I'm like and I'm like yes that's me and I'm really nervous at this point so I'm like oh god oh god and then she's like you you're Pedro and I go mm-hmm yes and then she's like so I'm going to need to C-I-D And then in my purse and I pretended to look for it. Oh, wow. It just made it worse. Don't know when to give up, huh? And I was like, I forgot it.

I forgot it. And then she looks at me and she goes, listen, I am going to have to flag this account now. No. And block it for you trying to use it. And I was like, draw. So I ducked my head and I ran out in shame. No. Because I was so embarrassed.

I just, I just left. I didn't even buy the item. I couldn't get myself to admit. And it was like you were trying to steal now. I don't know, but I'm never showing face in there ever again. Well, I don't think you're allowed to. I'm sure there's a picture of you up at all with her lemons. Oh, Jeffrey, what's on your mind?

So I write and sing parody songs on this show every week. But if you didn't know, there's somebody else in my family who was doing radio parody songs long before I was. Oh, yeah, the nepotism runs deep in the radio parody world. My mom did work on the Dr. Demento show back in the same. 70s and 80s with weird al. And back then, parody songs were definitely different. You know, topics you probably

wouldn't hear today. Okay, what do you mean? Like, give him an example so that they understand. Some of her song titles were chocolate toenails and how to potty train a spider. Okay. So checkmark on that. Mom was way funnier than I ever was,

for sure. But she's continued to do parody songs her entire life. And that leads us to today. Yes. We're basically the last two to three months, she's been asking if she could sing one of her songs, one of her new ones on our show. Hey, that's a little risky. Well, because some of them are a little political. I'll tell you, this one is not political.

Okay. Let's do it then. Let's go. This specific song is for the bee population. And instead of the 1930s hit, singing in the rain with Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers, she wants to do stinging and deranged. Oh, because they're bees. Yeah. Yeah.

Not a kind look to the bee population. No. Yeah, you normally have a better light. Yeah. So she's been really adamant about doing it on the show. Are we going to do it? Are we going to let her on? Are you all into it?

Yeah, let's go. Yes. Oh, my gosh. Sulu. I went ahead. I booked her for four Sundays from now. So make sure to mark your calendars. We don't do a show on Sundays.

Oh, yeah, that's right. Even I was into it. Oh, what a bummer. Oh, Jeffrey. I tried, Mom. I tried. Brooke says no. We don't work on Sundays. Okay.

I guess we'll have to figure out something else. But that's what's been on our mind. Why'd you do that, Brooke? I was looking forward to be singing in Doreen. Maybe next year. Text in 7-8-592. Tell us what's been on your mind. It's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.

It's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Getting a lot of text coming into the text board at 7-8-5-9-2 from listeners telling us what's been on their minds. This one says absolutely love your show. Never stop listening for years and years. I had an existential crisis on that fateful morning when you were no longer on my home station.

But then I found your podcast. Love you. If anybody else is going through that, we put the full show on the podcast. Well, if they're hearing this, that means they found it, I guess. Yeah. It's like when you were blocked by your ex on Insta and on TikTok, but then you found them on Facebook.

Hey, there you is. All good. Another text says, I had a dream last night that I was hanging out with Jose, and he literally told me I talked too much. I'm like, wait, ha ha ha ha ha. Yeah, it's definitely a dream. Definitely not reality. It's a compliment, though, that people are dreaming about you, Jose. Yeah, that's rare. I'm assuming all your clothes are on for it.

We don't know that. Another text says, I am the underwear thief. That's it? Is that the end? Yeah, I'm hoping that's referencing something that we did on the show and not like the start of a national crime spree? I don't know what's going on. We should all count our underwear when we get home.

Yeah, good point. But that's what's on our listeners' minds. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. You ever tried to hold in a sneeze? Yeah, yeah. Seems doable at first. Oh, man. Just a little tickling your sinuses.

But then the pressure starts to build. Oh, it does it? Suddenly, it's not just in your nose. Where is it, Jeff? It's up behind your eyes. Yeah. And then you feel it pounding in your forehead. Uh-oh.

Now your lungs are burning. The muscles in your chest and your throat are seizing up. And you're just rolling on the floor of that Wells Fargo, fighting it, torturing yourself, begging. Don't let it go. Just sneeze, Jeff. That's exactly what it's like to hold in a terrible date story. The longer it stays in you, the more it's going to hurt and you're going to embarrass yourself. I'm assuming you didn't get approved for that loan.

No, I did not. But that's why we have two listeners ready to unload on us, just like two big clans. cleansing sneezes right to our face during a Battle of the Tinder Dates. It's coming up right after this. Two hopeless daters. One dating app that dares you to swipe right. The question is whose love life is more tragic. It's Battle of the Tinder Dates.

It is the dating game show that encourages you to stop sibling rivalry and start sibling intimacy. No, not the action, the playlist on Spotify featuring all the best songs that turn. your sister on. No. With Battle of the Tinder dates, where two of our listeners go head to head to figure out whose love life is the most tragic. We'll go with the rules in just a second,

but first, let's meet today's contestants. In this corner, she's aggressively protective of her dates at brunch. To the point she snaps her teeth and haunts at other women nearby. That's why they call her Goosey Lucy. Oh, look at you.

Yeah, you're almost a swan, Lucy. No? I am here. She was too busy snapping at some woman walking by. And in the other corner, she keeps getting thirst-trapped with shirtless picks of Santa's elves

and has DMed at least five of them. That's how she got the nickname North Pole Nicole. I get it. Those elves are good with hammers. You know, a guy that can fix something. North Pole Nicole, that's me. Okay. She knows it.

Here's how the game. works. One contestant will start by telling one of their worst date stories. The other will try to counter with a nightmare story of their own. We're going back and forth for three rounds until we declare a winner. Let's kick it off with Goosey Lucy. Hit us with it. I was over at this guy's house

and we hooked up right about around midnight or so he tells me that he likes to sleep alone. Okay. Can't blame him. Is that just him saying that you need to leave? Yeah, so I'm grabbing my stuff and he

meets me at the door with this like little goody bag. What? Oh. Do you get a party favor? Yeah, I'm like, okay, what's this? It had like a little string cheese in it, a five-hour energy dream, and some STD medication in it.

Oh. Oh. Lissy's looking out for you. You probably got to take it with food. Yeah, exactly. Sounds like a good man. I don't know what your deal is, Lacey. Is it a cream or a pill? We don't need to know.

No time. Send it over North Pole. Nicole, can you counter? So the guy took me to the driving range, and after my first swing, he says, we're going to need to rebuild that technique from the ground up. Oh, God. Oh, my horse, he's taking so serious. At least he's trying to help.

But when I asked what was wrong, he said that my swing was too tight, and we needed to work it out and loosen me up in his jacuzzi. Oh. Oh. Wow. That is. He's got a jacuzzi. He sounds like a classy guy.

Dude, jacuzis, like, hot tub is one thing, but when you say jacuzzi, I don't know. It's just something about it. The semantics of it. It does. I agree. It hasn't been cleaned in a long time. We're on the round two. That means we need to step it up even better, ladies.

Lucy, what have you got? So this one time I went on the beach at sunset with this guy. I assumed I was there to see, you know, all the pretty colors and relaxed. Yeah. But he tells me no. This was prime time to go. kick over all the bad sandcastles that the kids made all day. No.

I didn't know somebody goes on the beach at night and kicks the sandcastle. Oh, you just thought it was the waves? Yeah. Sorry. No. This guy looks forward to it. Yeah, those are couples in love. Knacking over children's sandcastles.

Again, Lucy, I don't see what your problem is with all these men. Nicole, your turn. I was at a restaurant with this guy, and I noticed him slipping a fork into his pocket. Uh-oh. So I call him out. I'm like, what are you doing? Yeah. And he played dumb.

And I was like, empty your pockets, dude. And he does, and there goes the fork, along with you get this two other spoons. And he admits that he did it because he's an artist. He needs all this silverware to make a sculpture of a nude metal, Sophia Vergara. Oh, my God. Oh, wow. Oh, I wasn't in on this until I hear that. I'm kind of curious.

See, I'm still anti. Go to Goodwill, man. No. It's Sophia Vergara. That's why he needs two big soup spoons in order to pull it off. Okay. We're on to the third and final round. So Goosey Lucy, give it to us.

A guy took me to IKEA because he said he needed to know how we lived together. Oh, do you mean how you would fight? Yeah. That's like a test of a relationship. No, he wanted us to like live together, like pretend in a room. Oh. Oh. what would it be like to live with you?

Interesting. Yeah, so we're sitting in one of those like stage living rooms, pretending it was our house just laughing and kicking. And that's when another customer walked in, and my date tells me that he can't believe that I let a stranger walk into our home. Yeah, and I thought it was pretend, so I just laughed, and he actually was taking it serious and got mad. Man, next thing you know, you're going to use the table without a coaster.

Yeah. So, you know, I have to end the date there. Hopefully you got some Swedish meatballs on the way out. That does sound good right now. I actually got a double order. I needed it to get over that date. You deserve that. All right, Nicole, last chance.

All right. So my date met me at the bar, and I immediately realized I got catfish. Oh, nice. This old man, he's in his 80s. But he, like, doesn't understand. So I pull up his dating profile and I'm trying to explain it to him. And so that's when I showed him, like, the young guy in all of his pictures. Yeah.

And he tells me you look closer. And in every picture, you can see the old man in the background. Oh, what? In one, he's seen the birds. And in another, he's sitting on a bench. Oh, my God. So it was his profile and his grandson shows all the pictures for him. Oh, my God.

That's kind of funny and creative, actually. He doesn't have a lot of photos to choose from. It's like, where's Grandpa Waldo? So afterwards, I asked about his grandson. And this old man was like, you're not in his league. Whoa. Slammed by Grandpa.

Okay, we got the final bell there. That means we need to send it over to the judges to score it. Alexis, who you're giving it to? I'm going to call. I got it right after that old man comment. One for Nicole, Brooke. Dude, no, Lucy had my boat with the STD goodie bag. All tied up, Jose, you get the last say. I think Nicole in the metal spoons.

That means congratulations, North Pole, Nicole. You are our bypassed bachelorette of the week. How does it feel? I mean, I guess good. I love to win, but like, oof. Oof is right. Text in 785, 92. If you want up here on the next edition,

battle of the Tinder dates. We got your phone tab coming up right after this. We talk about dating on this show a lot and sometimes we hear tips on how to make it less awkward, more romantic. Well, in today's call, we do the opposite. When we speak to a single dad before he's even gone out on one date because he's been having a conversation for the last week with this woman named Juniper, but before they can officially meet up, he needs to talk to somebody else. And that's somebody, unfortunately, is Brooke. You'll see how this goes in your phone tap right now. Brooke and Jeffrey's phone taps on the 20s.

Hello. Hello, I'm looking to speak with Michael Picked him. This is Mike. Who's calling? My name is Rebecca Randy. I'm calling from the law firm of Dodger Swindle and Run. I'm sure you've heard of us. No, no, I have not.

What's this regarding? Well, I represent a woman that you matched with on a dating app. Her name's Juniper. Um, yeah. Okay. Well, it's my understanding that you two have not gone out yet, but you have talked extensively on the dating app. Is that correct, sir? I mean, we've been, we've been texting for a while, but we've never met in person. We're on the same page. I just want to clear up a few things before the date. That's why I'm reaching out to you.

Um, I'm sorry. Is there a problem? Why would a law firm be told me about this? Well, I'm just looking through my client's file here, and it says, In the section with a dating prompt that states, you should not go out with me if, you know what dating prompt I'm talking about? I mean, I've seen those. Okay. Well, Juniper's reads, quote, you should not go out with me if you think I can be bought or impressed with your income, end quote. So she's hoping that you're not too well off, but also not completely broke. And she had a lawyer ask me that.

You can imagine. It's not a comfortable question when you're just one-on-one. Yeah, I don't even know how to answer that. Well, based on that, I can just assume that you're not wealthy. So I'm just going to make a note of that right here. What? Okay, next dating prompt. Juniper said, you should not go out with me if you expect a casual encounter.

Why are you hesitating? I don't know. You're still stumbling. Okay, you're not answering as quickly as I thought you would. These are very odd questions, and I don't know why. I see. So you wanted to do casual stuff with her? No, I didn't say.

I don't know what we're going to do. You're right. My wording was wrong there. I meant you wanted to do casual stuff to her. Is that verbiage fit? No. No, we're going to dinner. I want to go to dinner.

We're like single parents. And we don't even know. I don't even know if we're doing a play date or anything. We haven't set anything up yet. That brings me to my next statement here. Juniper wrote that the non-negotiable for her is she will not introduce her children prior to a year of being in a committed relationship. Okay, yeah, no, I saw that on her profile. Right.

But you have children as well, correct? No, I absolutely do, yes. Right. So that's where Juniper's request for you comes in. She would like your non-negotiable to be you don't introduce your children to her for two years. You know, and the formality of this is a little extreme. I did tell her it was extreme and lucky for you I was able to talk her down a little bit. She would be willing to be in the same room as your children,

but she will not have any vocal communication or acknowledgement of them during that time. Wow. Okay, so if things worked out, she would be in my house but not speak to my children? Yeah, no eye contact either. She was specific about that. Oh, and she will also refuse to make their meals and clean up. after them. At least for the first two years, which seems reasonable. How's that reasonable? What are you talking about reasonable? You're joking me right now, right?

Do I sound like a woman who likes jokes? You don't sound like a woman at all. You sound like a robot. I'm a lawyer, sir. One step down from robots. You know what? Okay. You do your job, but I'm over this. Like, I don't... You can tell Jennifer that this whole thing is done. Like, I am done with dating sites. I'm done with dating.

This is ridiculous. Well, that seems extreme. Oh, no, I'm being extreme. She's not looking at my kids. Just for the first two years. Two years. Two years. I haven't even gone out once with her yet.

We haven't been on one date. Actually, that brings me to my last point here. She also requires you to have a good sense of humor and finds this prank phone call from Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning funny. Is that a negotiable, non-negotiable? Say that one more time. What do you say? Juniper's messing with you.

This is actually Brooke from the radio show, Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. She wrote us and wanted to phone tap you. I was losing my mind over here. She said that she's really excited for your first date and just wanted to break the ice with some humor. I was like, who does this? Who does this? There's no way this is possible. Oh, my God.

Brooke and Jeffrey's phone taps on the 20s. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. The great Vince Lombardi once said, winners never quit and quitters never win. Wow. Meanwhile, the great Brooke Fox once said, you're a loser and you'll always be a loser. Oh, wow.

Truth hurts sometimes. I actually have that one framed in a poster above my wine rack at home. Love to read it. Wine o'clock. But I only bring up these poignant sayings because in the dating world, sometimes you have to decide

do I keep trying to pursue this cool person that I like, or is it time to stop and move on to something way easier? That's the main question one guy's facing today. Do they go with Brooks' advice or Lombardis? We're going to find out in your second date update. Next. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.

Second date update. When was the last time someone in this room picked up the book, The Great Gatsby? I'd say, yeah, my junior year maybe. Oh, perfect. Then you obviously remember the entire novel is basically, following Gatsby's pursuit of Daisy, while Daisy the entire time plays hard to get,

much like Elizabeth Bennett from Pride and Prejudice and Mr. Darcy. I thought it was more of a societal look on what wealth does to people. I don't know. Yeah, I mean, it's sort of. I'm more focused on the courtship aspect of it. I hope you don't mind me using early literary references of it, where the man must prove himself through persistence in order to gain her affection. I'm glad you did, but probably.

Probably half of our listeners just tuned out, but that's cool. Including me. Yeah. Perfect. We're right where we normally are. And I only bring it up because our listener, Sheena, says she had a guy like that, someone she really liked. And now he's not calling her back. Okay.

The persistence has stopped. Sheena, welcome to the show. Thank you for having me. Okay. So this guy was going full in. He was going full Gatsby on you. Full Gatsby. And what happened?

Yeah. I mean, he was pursuing. me for quite a while, like hard. But I think maybe accidentally I turned him off. Okay, what's his name, by the way? His name is Matt. We met on Bumble. Okay.

And I mean, I have to be honest, I really loved his directness. Like, one of his very first messages was Saturday, noon, coffee, you and me. Okay. Wow. Some people don't like that. I could never just be like, hi, stranger, let's link up. Yeah, but some people really appreciate it. You know, no nonsense, just like, let's hang out.

Yep. I appreciated the way he did it. I mean, I didn't respond. Oh. But I did appreciate it. Wait, what? Wait. Why didn't you respond if you appreciated it?

I don't have a lot of time for dating. But for the right person, I could hopefully squeeze in for a little bit of time in my schedule. I mean, I'm... 20 minutes of coffee was too much. Yeah. Okay. At that time when he was asking, yeah, it was. Okay.

Again, if I felt like he was worth it right at the jump, maybe I would have made the time. I mean, I didn't delete him. I do want you to know. So how did you show him that you left him on red? Well, I let him pursue me. So there was no response from you, but you didn't delete him. And I assume he messaged again.

He probably messaged me like, I don't know, six or seven times. Clearly, not getting a reply. It doesn't bother him. Eventually, I said no, though. Eventually, I did. Why did you say no, though? Like, he's pursuing you like you want. Why the no?

What's stopping you? My work has been crazy. I had vacation coming up. I was away for a week. Oh, that's bad time. Okay, are you saying that you haven't been out on a date with him yet at all? No.

What? No. I would like to see him in person when I have some time. But actually, he asked me if he could stop by my work and see me. And I said, ew, no. Like, I barely know you. You said ew? Wow.

Yes, because wanting him to come to my work is kind of weird. Don't you guys think? I mean, I can understand you don't want a strange guy showing up at your work unannounced. Yeah. But he's providing a solution to meet your seemingly impossible schedule that you're offering. You have to at least consider that aspect of it. I told you guys I made a mistake. I probably should not have responded that way.

Yeah. Okay. That's self-awareness. That's next. So what happened after the e-no text? He wrote back, okay. And then I left him on, I loved him on read for like three days. Oh, man.

This is exhausting. Yeah, it is. You guys haven't even seen each other in person and I'm already tired. But he doesn't care. Look at him. He keeps trying. Okay. And she's enjoying the pursuit, clearly.

But after three days, what are you right finally? I just uncharacteristically wrote to him and I said, well, and then nothing. Oh, you just said the word well? At a point. That is kind of funny that you're just like, uh, hello. Why on earth do you think he'd want to go out with someone who can't make any time for him at all? It's not that I don't like him. Trust me.

I would have never ever even wrote the word well to him. I would have never initiated a text. But I really haven't had the time. And I was kind of hoping that he would get the hints and just keep pursuing me because that's what I feel a woman deserves of my caliber. I just don't feel like there's any hint in any of your messaging. Brooke, she said well. Oh. Probably with some dots afterwards.

Thank you. That means I wanted him to say something. Yeah, she creeped the door open for him. Why isn't he pulling it like all the way through? I feel like he got what he wanted. He was just chased until he got a reply. And now he's like, game over. I got it.

Are you actually wanting us to call him now and ask him to go on a date with you? Because we can't ask him why he's not calling you back. It feels just blatantly obvious. I would really like you to call him. call him and tell him to start pursuing me again to not give up on me. Is there any cell that we could have of why he should do that? What does he have to look forward to? Yeah.

That I'm interested. That's what he has to look forward to, which is I have to find a place to fit him in my schedule. Okay. Well, it doesn't get any easier than that. What guy's going to say no to that sort of opportunity? I like how all the time she spent on the phone with us, she could have got coffee with him. Yeah. I'm going to text him.

Well, I'm sorry that you're going through this right now. First of all, Sheena, this must be very tough on you. It is. Well, we understand. That's why we're going to come back. We're going to call this quitter of a man and tell him to pull his head out of his butt and get back to pursuing you. Like real men do. I know I loved you guys.

So you understand me. We do. She does show affection eventually. We're going to do it with your second date update right after this. Hold on. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Second date update. What happened to men?

I don't get it I mean one day you're telling them No don't show up at my place of business And then the next thing They're not doing that Wow Talk about being clear and respecting boundaries Yuck! Am I right

Sheena? Yes No you are right That's right No you don't want to reverse of that No he's given up Matt asked her out multiple times Sheena has reluctantly

been forced to turn him down over and over again because her schedule is just too busy and too crazy. And I should have known that the text well meant. Keep going. Yeah. Don't give up. But for some reason, Matt's thrown in the towel. He's waving the white flag.

And Sheena does not appreciate that. That's why she's come to us for help today. And just to clarify, Sheena, at the end of this, are you saying that you want us to to send Matt on a date with you? I mean, I do want to go out with him. It just has to be under my date. terms of fit my schedule. Oh, God.

Please let's not do the back and forth of what day works for you because that sounds exhausting. You guys can do that separately if this works out. Fair. Thank you. I like your energy, Sheena. Don't lose your spark. I won't. Good.

Yeah, you deserve all the things that are coming to you. So let's just dial Matt's number and we'll see what happens. Here we go. Hello. Hey, is this Matt? Yeah, this is Matt. Who's this? Hey, man.

This is a radio show. We're called Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. It's probably going to be a very surprising call to you. True. Okay. I think she meant very exciting call for you. Both, I'm sure. Because we're doing this segment.

It's called a second date update. Super exciting. Okay. Okay. So what that is, is if we have a listener who's gone out on a date with somebody, or in your case has just been talking to someone for a really long time and they've never met up in person, we can reach out on their behalf to figure out if there's a reason why.

Why the date hasn't happened, materialized. I feel like I know you guys are going with this, but maybe. That would be shocking to me if you knew what we were talking about. Let's give him a hint. Well, we got it now, right, bro? That's pretty good. Because we're talking about a girl you've been talking to named Sheena. What?

Okay. He did not expect Sheena. Okay. Well, we've heard that there's been developments in this relationship. We're trying to figure out where your head's at. I tried to hang out with that girl for almost a complete month. And that's just a month that I will never get back. Can I just ask after she first said no to the coffee date, why did you keep pursuing her?

Well, listen, you see on social media that there's this push where it's like, well, guys need to pursue more. Like, you hear it be said. I'm not an emu. My head's not in the sand. I thought that was like emo. No, you're not a lot. Yeah. All right.

But she's pretty. And, like, you got to give it a chance when you actually get a response on there because it's desert. So it's, you know, it's rough. Emu's in desert is the dating landscape right now. Beautiful metaphor. So we heard you two met on Bumble. You chatted for a long time. You said a whole month.

It was mostly one-sided. You chatted. Not her. sending her messages and her every once in a while saying no, that won't work. In different ways because it doesn't fit her schedule. And then you suggested visiting her at work because she was so busy and she responded with, ew. And that was kind of how it dissolved. I mean, I really tried with her.

I even sent her flowers. You did? Oh, that's nice. Wait. She didn't say that. She gave you her address? Yeah. What?

No. I mean, I had to send them to her sister. How do you know her sister? She gave you her sister's address? She said, just to be safe, so I did. And, you know, I still got, like, heard nothing back. Wait, just to be safe, I don't want you to find me, but if you find my sister, that's fine. She was like a sacrificial lamb.

She's got a machete by the door. She'll be fine. Yeah, and I mean, like, I just asked to a casual coffee date and then tried dinner. I tried an activity so I couldn't make any of it Sounds like the sister probably kept the flower That doesn't mean I want you to stop pursuing me Oh

I heard it too Good one Oh God Okay what's going on Yeah Matt so that's Sheena Who's been waiting quietly On the other line until she wasn't I mean it makes sense you'd never heard her voice before

So yeah That's fair This is what she sounds like Yeah she's been waiting to talk to you Oh my God. Seriously? I can't believe you right now. What? You're mad? What do you want for me?

Listen, I'll be honest. With my looks, I match with a lot of idiots on dating sites. I believe a lot of people. A lot of idiots insult them. Hold on, let her cook. And you're the first one in a while who's been able to keep up and to stay with me. like you were fighting to see me for, I don't know, like an entire month. And I really appreciated that. It meant a lot to me.

Oh. How would you know that? How would he do that? What's the first nice thing she said? Is that nice? Yeah, but I had you out like eight times and you could never do it. And you know what? If you really like me, you don't quit.

You ask me out eight more times. It doesn't matter. So, Sheena, you sound like a woman who's got a great career, you've got a lot of things going for you. Why wouldn't you take control and just say, oh, that doesn't work for me. How about Wednesday at 5 or whatever works in your schedule? Excuse me. I am not the man here. That is the man's responsibility.

Okay. To know your schedule to find a date that works? Why are you telling women to do everything and men can sit back and do nothing? She just sounds like an incredibly independent woman who's got her stuff together. I don't understand. Not enough, apparently. Now she needs to be scheduling all the dates for the man. I'm really busy and I want to fit him into my schedule,

but he needs to keep pursuing me until the time is right and I can find space. And then when I do, Matt's the guy that I want to go out with. I mean, that's the first time Matt's probably heard that he's wanted, which is, I assume, nice feeling, no, Matt. I'm mind-blown. And you want me to ask you out eight more times? Yes. 10, 12.

It doesn't matter. There's no number on it. I just want you to pursue me so I know you're serious. It's like a baseball player, Matt. You've swung at eight pitches. You've striked on all eight, but that doesn't mean you don't go back to the plate and keep swinging. Thank you. Coach isn't going to pull you from the game. Usually means you get sent down to a lower team.

Well, she's not ready to send them down yet. She wants you to strike out more. It's not. How about that? You don't know I'm going to say no. That's a good point. Are you free on Friday? No. I have like a work thing.

Okay. How about Saturday? Actually, the thing Friday, I have to go away for a few days. I'm kind of gone the whole weekend for the work thing. Don't choose weekends. Yeah. Is that it? Matt, you don't want to try another day. We don't want to go through all seven days of the week. Monday could be good. Or future months? Monday might be possible. Who knows?

I feel like the person that would know would be you, Sheena. I know, but my schedule just changes so rapidly and there's so much being on. But don't give up, Matt. Don't give up. I like to keep asking. You know what? I think maybe I'll just take it from here. So we would love to have you guys go out on a date.

Oh, how do we even coordinate it? I don't know how to do that, but maybe we can agree to send you on a date at a future time to be determined. And when that time is determined, we would pay for it. I mean, you're talking to the most important woman in the world right now who has the busiest schedule that's ever been. Yeah. You understand me. I love you guys. I knew I'm calling you with the right thing.

You get me. We do. The question is, is Matt up for it? Yeah. Yes. Okay. Beautiful. Way to go, Matt.

I don't think that was the response, but I like that you took it. We got to end it here. We got a yes. Whatever it was. Thank you guys. Okay. I can't wait to get an update in two years. Yeah.

If it's happened yet. Uh-huh. I don't even know what happened just now. Yeah, me either. Matt, you're in love. Just send more flowers to her sister. You're going to love it. For me, and I know this is probably unpopular opinion.

But did it seem like maybe she was being a little unreasonable? Oh, weird, Jeff. Did you come to that conclusion all in your own? I don't want to go too crazy with it. Alexis, what's your take on if a woman wants to be pursued? And in her mind, a guy needs to ask her out multiple times to show his interest. Obviously, that's not you. But how do you feel about that situation?

You can be honest. Yeah, I don't know. She's crazy. Oh, really? Okay. There it is. All right. Maybe in this case, she was a little bit on the cuckoo side.

But he said yes. Did he, though? He said, yeah. He said, yeah. And that was all we needed. Because she stopped it. That's right. So I'm marking it up as a victim.

for us and everyone involved. And you can be victorious too in your dating life. Just email the show. We'll call that person who's not calling you back. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. I don't know about your city, but ours is out of control with World Cup fever. Yeah. And I'm so proud of us.

I mean, we look so good on TV. We did a good job. It's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. And where our studios located, we're one of the host cities. It was pretty exciting over this past weekend. Meanwhile, over in Houston, they're welcoming. teams too. And the BBC hosted their World Cup studio there,

which featured a big backdrop with the Houston skylined in the background. That's cool. So you can see these cool buildings of downtown Houston on the right. And over on the left, you see these rolling foothills and big majestic mountains. Which is a little bit of a problem because Houston

doesn't have mountains. I mean, the tallest thing in Houston is the freeway overram. It's 50 feet above sea level. Yeah. Super flat. So of course, didn't take long for locals to notice and start roasting the studio backdrop online. Oh no. I can't believe they put that as the studio backdrop. They're going to be like, the other rest of the world won't notice.

They're dumb. Immediately some of the comments went viral, like one said, the Houston mountains are actually gorgeous this time of year. The next one says, they should do this. Just build some mountains. It'd be great for tourism. Oh, my God, I not. They could have showed so many other things, like NASA are.

Galveston or... The giant mountains of Kansas. One guy said, I'm pretty sure that's just the city dump overflowing. No, just another gorgeous day in the Houston Alps. Wow. The Alps. I'm getting

altitude sickness up here. And it's also a perfect day for laser stories, which is coming up right after this. It's the radio segment that's Americanizing your dumb European curag with a new coffee maker the Freedom Brew 3,000.

Oh, wow. Featuring a 12-cylinder diesel-powered coffee injector using bigger pods, making louder noises, and ending with a tiny fireworks show above every cup. Wow, so American. Put the American back in your Americano with Laser Stories. The segment where we read, weird news stories around the globe, just like everyone else does, except we've got a laser.

Those other Ameramokas just don't. This first laser story is out of. Kentucky. Two people, a 51-year-old woman named Trisha Crowley and a 48-year-old man named Damon Bennett, are in deep trouble. And it all started when they parked their car in a strip mall area, and it just sat there for many hours. Security let local police know it was there. When officers showed up, they looked inside and they saw Trisha and Damon sitting there looking completely out of it. And nobody got time for that. Come on, guys. At least they weren't driving. Well, in Trisha's lap,

was a bag that had a label on it. And that label said definitely not a bag full of drugs. Looks like we're done here then. Yeah. Thanks for clearing that up. Who knew why they were? I'm never going to know. Definitely was misspelled

as defentelly. Okay. Tricky word. Yeah. And it said full twice. Oh, full full. He also had the term lackey spooge. I don't want to Google search. Whatever that is.

And it was filled with actual drugs. It does sound like a cool gamer handle, though. Yeah. So cops had them get out of the car. Tricia attempted to give the officer a fake ID. Oh, no. And Damon had some outstanding warrants. Did the identification also say definitely not a fake ID?

At that point, it was a full-on jail party. Afterwards, a police spokesperson said, there are people who would see a novelty bag that says, definitely not a bag full of drugs and find it amusing. Then there's people who would put their actual drugs in it. Please don't be those people. Let's go to your next laser story out of Nevada. Fresno County Sheriff's got a 911 call from the Sierra Nevada foothills for a confined space rescue.

Uh-oh. And when they showed up, they weren't exactly excited about the work that needed to be done. Oh. A man had accidentally dropped his sunglasses to the bottom of a honey bucket toilet. No. And instead of walking away, he tried to retrieve him. Oh, it was just good. He fell almost immediately to the bottom of the toilet's tank and started yelling for help.

This is the only time you wish it was full to the brim. I know that's gross. But then it's up on the top. I see what you're saying. Luckily, he only had to endure about 15 minutes at the bottom of the toilet. Dude, that's the longest 15 minutes of your life. Finally, Cruz, able to get him out safely.

Authorities confirmed the man was not injured, but did require a good hosing down before walking away. Just take me out back at that point. Where's the bleach? One witness thanked the officers for being so quick to respond as the victim was definitely in Deep Doodoo.

Oh, come on. It's probably shock. Where's my rim shot? That was good. Deep doo-Doo. I got you. I got you. I got you. Let's go to your next laser story. Out of Only in Florida. 24-year-old Rory Thompson walked into his eye doctor's office after experiencing flashing lights and seeing floaters for the last six days. Oh my gosh.

And he didn't have any injuries to report. No family history of eye disorders. Doctors couldn't believe how much eye damage they saw, though. Retina impairment, widespread bruising, and even a condition called retinal dialysis. Yosses? Yeah. That's the worst case they've ever seen. No bruising here.

These glasses protect anything. After further questioning from the doctors, Rory finally came clean on what had happened. It seems, in an attempt to help his tired eyes, Rory had been using a massage gun on his eyeballs for the past three months. What? You know when you're so tired, your eyes are sore? I can see this. A massage gun? Like on the side, maybe?

Oh, my God. Oh, my God. This'll relax them. Specifically, he used a gun with a small head attachment shaped like a bullet. You know the one I'm talking about. He'd been using it directly on and around both eyes on a weekly basis for the last 12 weeks to help with his eye fatigue. But shockingly, no, it did not help. That hurts when I put it on my shoulders.

I can't imagine putting it on my eyeball. Like maybe on your head so it vibrates your eye, but directly on the eye. No wear near it. Doctors noted he did not have a history of psychiatric conditions or drug use. Yeah, that is something you'd want to look into if the guy's doing this. Turns out Rory was just that dense. They were able to fix his injuries with laser treatment and made him promise to never do that again. Oh my gosh.

Although they really should have a warning label on those massage guns. Don't use on eyes. Just get Rory a cool eye mask. Yeah. One of those that you keep in the fridge. A vibrating one? No. No.

No. Oh, just cold. Nothing that's going to punch you in the face while you're using it. Peach their own. Let's go to your final laser story out of the bathroom chronicles. Not again. It's a good point. It's a more normal bathroom.

Turns out that wash cloths and lufas might not be doing your skin any favors. You're going to tell us they're all full of yucky stuff, aren't you? I'm not going to tell you that. But a recent dermatologist report says washing with your hands is the safest and most effective way to clean your body. I'm a hand washer. Yeah. Yeah. Your hands are less likely to irritate the skin.

And unlike Lufas, they don't sit around collecting bacteria in between showers. Ew. Yeah. I like a little bacteria backup in my crevices. Apparently, lufas can become a breeding ground for germs if they're not cleaned after each and every use. Washcloths, meanwhile, get a little more love from dermatologists, but they still come with a warning. they can provide gentle exfoliation by removing dead skin cells, but using them every day may actually damage your skin's protective barrier.

So you're saying don't eat my lufa? Yeah. Yeah. Or your washcloth. Okay. So if you do use a washcloth, just wash it frequently and hang it up to dry in between uses. But as for lufas, don't use them unless you're this guy. Oh, he's okay with it.

Yeah. In fact, this is just him cleaning him. right now. Him and his tired body. He needs to be relaxed. And that sound means laser stories has come to an end for the day. We'll do it again. Same time

on Friday. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. New player Anthony joins us today. We've actually tracked his cell phone. Apparently he's standing in the alley behind a questionable massage parlor.

Anthony, what are you doing there? And are the special still good. I am definitely not there, Jeff. Okay. I'm going to let you know from experience, if you walk into one of those places expecting a good pedicure and not realizing where you are, you're not going to get it. You're going to get something even better. But we are getting reports. Police are going to be arriving in the area soon, so we should probably move this along. I better to leave then. Yeah. Give you a little time to settle in between the dumpster and the feral cat looking for snacks.

So let's just get to the game. You've got 30 seconds to answer as many questions as possible. If you don't know when you could say pass, but you have to beat Brum. Brooke, outright if you want to win. Are you ready? I am ready. Good luck, my man. Your time starts now. The operating system, Microsoft Windows 98, was released on this day in what year? 1992.

The kind of juice you used to make a Bloody Mary would be tomato juice.
