Listen to the big take from Bloomberg News every weekday afternoon on the IHeart radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. All right, we got a brand new full hour for you. And to be completely transparent, things have been a little chaotic in our studio this last.

And our listeners have noticed. Yes. Jeff's been MIA for a couple of trivia segments. Jose was with him at one point. People have lost their voices. Yeah. They're back again. Jose's still got a cop. Like, it is chaos. People are noticing in the comment. Yeah, Keney said what's going on over there? Is Jeff okay? And Brooke, were you able to get your glasses fixed? Yeah, the glasses thing, it's really interesting.

Her lens keeps popping out mid-segment. Yeah, and I'm really blind. You know, I looked at my prescription the other day, and it's like negative 14. It's worse than I've remembered. Jeez, I don't even know the numbers, and that sounds about. It's got to top off soon. Like, that's got to be near the end of the other. No, but I did just find out that my contacts were covered by insurance, because

I'm like, I can't survive without them. So that's sweet. What are your contacts, like telescopes? Yeah, pretty much. Yeah, just magnifying glasses that you put in my eyes. Most people with deep planet. See, this is the chaos that we're talking about. I don't know how we got here, but let's just start the full show for you.

You're going to love it. It's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning, and we've got an update. Update on the poll. No, no. Not on the poll. What are we updating then? Just a regular update. Because remember the woman who was suing the amusement park after she got hit

in the face with a duck while riding the roller coaster. Yes, the original duck face girl. That's right. Well, that lawsuit still pending. Oh. So what's the update? No update there. Oh, did we find out what happened to the duck?

No. Zero updates on that situation. But the update I want to tell you about, I don't know if you guys remember this. A different woman got into a disagreement with theme park staff regarding who should get priority when boarding a go-kart ride.

What do you mean by that? We mean like if it should be kids first and then adults? Yeah, like men, women first. She thought she should get to go first and that led to some children in line calling her a Karen. Those children's names,

Alder and Nora. That's right, kids. Call out those Karen. But let's be honest, the whole okay Karen thing that's kind of played out at this point. Let's get more creative with the insults to older women children. Okay? You're better than that.

But regardless, that lady sued the amusement park because there were no... That's how she spent her time and energy. Exactly. Because there were no signs anywhere that said guests should not disparage other guests in the line. Which, fair point. Wait, so she sued the park not because she didn't get to go first in line, but because the kids called her a Karen and she felt bullied by the young children. And there was no signs telling children don't bully the Karen's on the ride.

Oh, there needs to be signs. Now I get it. Yeah, she's totally going to win this one. Yeah. I can't wait till they pull those nine-year-olds up into the stand and get their witness. I know. This is like the sign Jeff wants to put up in studio that says no back-talking Jeffrey.

Exactly. That would be broken every day. Since then, we've learned, shockingly, her lawsuit was dismissed. Citchie. Can you believe that? I didn't predict it at all. But she did ask to talk to a supervisor at that amusement park and yelled at him, for 30 straight minutes. We know that

for a fact. And you know what? I bet that supervisor gets paid enough to make that worth it. Yeah. I'm sorry about the goal cards, lady. Man, Cairns can just not get a win right now. I'm texting if you're a Cairns. Is that what we're hoping for? That is. Just one victory for a Cairn.

But all right, why don't you go install the signs then? We will. In the meantime, let's move on to the shot collar question of the day. And let's all promise to not be Cairns when our digital producer gives us a totally unfair question.

Here we go. Today is the birthday of a Hollywood icon Gerard Butler. Ooh. He's the man best known for yelling this is Sparta. While he earned a 12% Rotten Tomato score in his rom-com

with Catherine Hegel. Oh. Oh. Really? Hey, that's still a higher score than Kim Kardashian has with their new law show. Oh, really? And on the bar itself. Shots fired at Kim. that's impressive acting career has spanned four decades, earning him zero Oscar wins or nominations, which is honestly impressive. He didn't win that with Gladiator?

That was Russell Crow. Oh, that's why. And Russell Crow did win, I think. Yeah. But that's why today, to honor the great Gerard Butler, you'll be quizzed on other famous butlers from television and film during a special Butler, I hardly know her edition of. Plenty of 20. Wow.

So irrelevant, he can't even get a question about it. Nope. Say at number 1 through 20, I'll give you a hint about an iconic butler from a popular TV or movie series. Just name them to stay in the game. Oh, God. Let's start with the woman who has something in common with butlers everywhere, because someone's always cleaning up her mess. That's Alexis.

11. Number 11. Alexis, this person is the gold standard of butlers. He's loyal, he's sarcastic, he's ex-British intelligence, and he's basically Bruce Wayne's therapist with a tray. I need his name. I'm glad you gave this to me because I think this is the only Butler I know. Does he have the last name, though?

He definitely does, and I very much need it. I don't know. I think his name's Alfred, but I don't know his last name. Alfred Butler. Alfred Butler. That's amazing. That's amazing. He could make an A. Butler is incorrect.

His name is Alfred Pennyworth. You got it right, though. he was from the Batman movies. It's because you get your pennies worth when you hire him. That's why. Brooke, I think he's like a trademark zinger as a last name. Brooke, despite that joke, I'm going to let you play this round.

I'm going to pick a butler's favorite number, too. Why? Because of a butt? That's disgusting. Despite both those jokes, Brooke, I'm going to read you a hint. This butler is a master of savage comebacks and eye rolls, and he was the only person in Bel Air who, roast Will Smith and iron

in shirts. Yes, butler Joffrey. Oh, she said it right. She did, Geoffrey. Oh, F-F-R-E-Y. I forgot that correctly. Jose, we're over to you. Oh, man. Let's go number eight. Number eight. I'm nervous, Jake. I don't know a lot of photos of my two butlers I do. He might know this one, Jose. Before he was an AI in Tony Stark's ear, he was the guy

actually bringing him his tea. Oh, my gosh. Ashen is shaking his head. a disappointment that there's... It was another superhero, wasn't it? He's an AI and Tony Stark's here, so some sort of... He was a real person at one point, and then became the computer. He's shaking his head because Tony Stark doesn't drink tea.

Oh, yeah. It's pure vodka, you know that. He got it. He knows all the Easter eggs. Oh, man, I cannot think of it. I remember a girl being his assistant, but what is the AI in his ear? I'm just going to say, shut up to Spider-Man. Jose's going to say Tony starts butler is Spider-Man.

Incorrect. Pepper Potts was the name of his assistant. His AI is named Jarvis. Jarvis when he was a human. Jaffrey, we're over to you. How dare you? 2.8 and 11 are off the board. 19. All right.

Jeffrey, the towering undead butler worked for a family so creepy. Even he looked underdressed. And when he said, you rang. You suddenly weren't hungry. anymore. What Butler am I talking about? I know. Hmm. I feel like this is really unfair to me as someone who's dealt personally with butlers his entire life.

I didn't really watch them on TV and movies. You don't bring up your butler often. You just bring up your nanny mostly. He must have not a mean as much to you. Well, I'm not a pretentious jerk. That's probably why. His nanny had a butler. Exactly. Thank you very much.

So, um, an undead butler. It's got to be somebody from Adams family. Yes. Come on. Come on, Jeff. Let's go with gronk. Oh, gosh.

Grunk. I don't know. I'm trying to think of like a scary sounding name. Oh, yeah, not Gronkowski. This guy's just gronk. I'm gron. Jeffrey says gronk. That's incorrect.

It was another kind of hard onomatopoetic word. His name was Lurch. Lurch. The butler of the Adams family. And that means, despite all of her terrible jokes, Brooke was the only person who got today's plenty of 20, and

she will win. Yeah, I think I would have to pick Jeffrey on this one. Joffrey. Oh, wow. Yeah, I mean, you're just, you know, your talk of all these butlers that you know, and you didn't know Lurch, I thought that was pretty pathetic. It felt like your wheelhouse. Almost heightest. All right, my butler's going to be coming for you, I'll just know that.

You don't even remember his name probably, so. You know, doesn't need to. So I'm going to be singing Fancy by Iggy Azalea. Here we go. I'm so fancy. Oh, because you got a butler. You already know I'm in the fast lane from L.A. to Tokyo.

That was your shock caller question of the day. We got your phone tab. It's coming up in just a few minutes. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. In a few short weeks, we'll all be at the Thanksgiving table trying to survive another dinner with our families. The first half hour was fine. It's the next three hours. Yeah.

And who are you on Turkey Day? Are you the drunk one who's spiking the gravy boat with vodka like Alexis? What? Hey. Gross. Vodka gravy. Makes everyone happier. Just drinking it at the table?

Yeah. Are you the drunk one who's making a move on your cousin like Brooke? Oh. No, I'm just being friendly, Jeff. Is that how you say hello in the Fox House? Or maybe you're the drunk one who takes his pants off to make more room for pie. Like me. You've never heard of Elastic.

Like, there's ways around that. This is much easier. Whichever one you are, channel it as we practice our Thanksgiving manners and sharing during a brand new edition of What's on Your Mind. Okay, pants on though, Jeff. Okay, Alexa spiked that gravy, though. We're doing it coming up right now. It's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning,

and sometimes I wonder if our show would sound more sophisticated if we weren't a I mean, yeah. Yeah, I knew we had accents? Honestly. If we were in Scotland right now, this segment would be called Whitskratlin ruined up in your school, A-Loss? What's going on in your noggin? Nope, it's just a regular old Yankee version of what's on your mind.

With a lot less whiskey. We share what each member of the show's been thinking about lately. Starting with Brooke, Brooke, what's on your mind? Well, I learned something about our place. of employment earlier this week. Okay. And that is to never have a medical emergency here. Oh, I was just planning on having one darn.

I'm going to tell you, don't, okay? Why? So I'm sitting on my desk. We have like an open concept office. And this woman who's with the ownership of the building that we're in casually strolls up and says, hey, anybody having a medical emergency? I mean, literally asks it as if we're having a problem with the printer. I'm not exaggerating.

It's nice of her to ask. It's a kind thing. And we all kind of look around. I'm like, what is happening? Awkward question. Yeah, and she goes, well, somebody called 911 from a studio and said they were having a medical emergency. So I just came up to check it out. Mind you, she is not an EMT.

She's not a firefighter. There's no police officers coming in behind her. She's just a good Samaritan coming up to check on everybody. She's just casually strolling from studio. to studio. Strolley's a good word. No sign of urgency. Luckily, no one was injured it. It was some sort of false alarm. Oh, it was good.

But where were the professionals? It's so good called 911. I feel like she would have done an awesome job even without all the devices. Like, if someone had just stepped up and raised their hand saying I was having an issue, she would have kicked into gear with some sort of McGiver fix.

I don't think so, man. She was so casual. Me of little faith, Brooke. Just stay safe at work. people, okay. Take yourself to the emergency. Exactly. I refuse. Jose, what's been on your mind? Well, I was sick last weekend, and all I wanted was soup, and I love Panera

soup. Panera's like top tier. So I go on to Uber Eats. I'm a pro at Uber Eats app, right? I go click, click, click, boom, boom. Matter of moments, three cups of soup, baby. I'm in soup mode, right? This is all I'm eating, and a side of bread. Next day, I'm craving

the same thing. I go back on the app, and I go to the Panera bread, and And I'm like, what the heck? It says $15.99 extra fee. And I'm like, well, this is wrong. That's a lot. Maybe it's hard to deliver soup because it sloshes around in the car. But I'm just like, this can't be right.

So I go back and I look at my receipt from yesterday. And you had paid it. And I paid over $100. Oh, jeez. For three cups of soup. $100. $1.59 feet. And apparently I ordered it from another city.

It took 45 minutes. get to me and now I know why. So you ordered cold soup. Well, actually, it was pretty cold, but I got to me. That is so crazy. So anyway, I paid $35 per cup of soup. Sometimes I order bagels delivered in from New York City or I'll get my like gelato shipped in from Florence, but I've never had my broccoli cheddar shipped in from an hour

north. I need to try that. Yeah, it's pretty nice. It probably tastes way better. Exotic. Oh, yeah. Next time. Alexis, what's been on your mind?

So we hosted a friend's giving at my house last weekend. Oh, that's cute. We already did it. Yes, and we do it every year, but this was the most. It was 20 people. We came over. Wow. And none of the friends in this room made the Friends Giving, did we?

Sorry. Well, in my defense, our seating arrangement is always a little iffy. Like, we put beer pong tables as kitchen tables because we don't have one. Classy. And then we turn the couches, so it's what you sit on as the seat. Oh, that's cute. Like a bear. As our couches.

And then for food, we do, no turkey. We do rotissory chicken. Great. From Costco. And then while I'm there, I grab my mac and cheese that some people still think I home cook. Okay? And it worked again this year. I got a thumbs up across the table, mid-meal.

And they were like, Alexis, keep it up. Great mac and cheese. But the problem this year is that some people show up early, like six, some people show up at seven. We don't eat until everyone's there. So the food was very cold. We had very cold, similar to your cold soup. You didn't time it right from the grocery store. Did not time it right.

And then we've never had this many people over. we ran out of silverware. Oh, no, you don't think about the silverware. So we did have everybody eat with the serving spoons, like you scooped it, and then you just kept it. Pretty much fits with what's going on so far. That sounds fun still, though. While you're sitting on a couch eating on a beer pong table. Yes, and some people ought to sit on the dog kennel because we did run out of space.

But we made it work, and we gave a lot of wines. I hope that people, like, thought it was good. You know, like, trick them it's better. That's sure it's nice wine, too. Well, so to justice is a $5 wine. I don't think anything's out of nice there. The box got a nice picture. Your 20s are so good.

I love this. I'm sort of not upset anymore that we weren't invited to this one. I'll kick you off the list too, Jeff. Okay, thank you. All right, Jeffrey, what's on your mind? Well, I'm not somebody who typically gets star-struck by people. Like, I think part of it is I went to a private school with a bunch of children of celebrities who went to school with me. Not to mention when I first met Brooke, she was on air and I was in promotions, and she kind of,

of ruin the whole celeb image for me, too. I was not a celebrity. I could tell. Celebrities are supposed to act rich, not have coupon cards. Anyway, I realize there is one type of celebrity, though, that is my weakness. Who's that? Strong athletic former college athletes. Oh.

College? Yes. Are you getting on Alexis? I know. She's a college athlete. I said strong. Yeah. Oh, yeah, never mind.

Because I was at a house party recently, and across the room I clocked this really tall, muscular dude. And he is wearing a hat from the college where I went to school. Okay. So I'm just making casual conversation with him. I'm like, oh, did you go to school there? Like, are you a fan? Or like, what's the deal?

And he tells me, well, I actually played D-Line for the football team. No way. I was like, what? You guys are that excited about it? And he tells me his name, and I don't know what happened to my brain. but for the next like 30 seconds all of my cool is gone and I just keep saying

oh my God you're him you're football guy you're you're him I watched you football you him while he's been out of post college right he hasn't played in years but I'm just like so it's been a long time

that's the moment he realized he's never going to tell anyone that ever again it was so embarrassing I was super star-struck and I couldn't think of anything else to say to him So moral is if you're hosting a party and there's going to be any sort of former college football athlete there, do not invite me. I will kill the mood. It sounds like it.

It sounds like you were really uncool. Did you get a pick at least with them? I did not. Oh, man. But that's what's been on our minds. You could text in to 78592 and tell us what's been on yours. It's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning and we're getting texting at 785 with listeners telling us what's been on their minds. God, it's my favorite week of a favorite day for the tech sport.

I love it. This one says, please, please, we need more of Ronaldo. I love those pranks from Jose. Please bring it back. Make me laugh. I love you so much. It is Rolando, but we also, I always know when you are thinking of it. You can't be much of a fan if you can't spell the name right.

You get that all the time. You want pranks. You got to submit your friends and your family members on our website, brook and jeffrey.com. Otherwise, we won't know who to call. Another text says, hey guys, this is Ricky from Sacramento, currently going through a divorce. Oh, man, sorry, Ricky. If it wasn't for you guys, I don't even know how I could deal with it. I love you.

You're the best. Oh, Ricky, you got this. That's right. We do moonlight as divorce lawyers, and we help Ricky out. We have to, seeing as we cause most of them. I'm going to say you are going to lose more than half of everything if you use us, but. We'll try. Another text says, I think your show needs an entire day where everyone texts in and compliments Jeffrey.

Oh. Yeah, I love that idea. Who said that? Good luck in my parents to be on board with that one. Another one says, give me that mouth to mouth, Brooke. I think I'm drowning. Oh, okay.

Our listeners need you, Brooke. If you could still text, you don't get the mouth to mouth. Yeah. All right. Well, hopefully you're okay, but if you need a divorce lawyer, then you can keep texting in. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. On any reality show, even if you don't win,

at least you'll get something useful out of the experience. Like your 15 seconds of fame? Yeah, kind of like Bachelor contestants gain millions of followers online. Oh, okay. Yeah. Love Island people get a host of brand deals. Seriously. Along with a bunch of things that medically will stay

with them for years and years. Some of those they had before the show. That's a love souvenir. Exactly. But the winners of our segment, Battle of the Tinder dates, they actually lose an average of 12. followers, and they get left on red once again. Oh, no. Brave people to still come on

and do this game. You sure is. It's not going to make you famous, but it will make you a legend in your group chat when you participate in a brand new Battle of the Tinder dates coming up right after this. No one can resist a rule of culture, so here's one for the dating

files. Rule of culture number 72. Chemistry isn't just vibes, it's values.

Power up at Lenovo.com. Lenovo, Lenovo. What up, y'all? It's your boy, Kevin on stage. I want to tell you about my new podcast called Not My Best Month, where I talk to artists, athletes, entertainers, creators, friends, people I admire who had massive success. about their massive failures.

What did they mess up on? What is their heartbreak? And what did they learn from it? I got judged horribly. The judges were like, you're trash. I don't know how you got on the show. Boo, somebody had tomatoes. I'm kidding.

But if they had tomatoes, they would have thrown the tomatoes. Let's be honest. We've all had those moments we'd rather forget. We bumped our head. We made a mistake. The deal fell through. We're embarrassed. We failed.

But this podcast is about that and how we made it through. When they sat me down, they were kind of like, we got into the small talk, and they were just like, so what do you got? What? What? What ideas? And I was like, oh, no. What? Check out not my best moment with me, Kevin on stage on the Iheart radio app, Apple podcast, YouTube, or wherever you get your podcast. On this week's episode of the next chapter, I, DDJakes, get to sit down with Oprah Winfrey, a media mogul philanthropist and global trailblazer. My life, although it may look like an anomaly, it has only been possible because I was obedient to the calls. This episode dies deep into how Oprah turned pain into purpose and what it really means to evolve with everybody watching. Every decision I have ever made has come from sitting with the spirit and asking God, what would you have me do first?

Whether you're rebuilding, reimagining, or just trying to hold it together, this one will speak directly to you. Listen to the next chapter on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast, episodes drop weekly. The Big Take podcast from Bloomberg News dives deep into one big global business story every weekday. A shutdown means we don't get the data, but it also means for present. Trump, that there's no chance of bad news on the labor market. What does a bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich, reveal about the economy? Our breakfast foods are consistent consumer staples, and so they sort of become outsize indicators of inflation.

What's behind Elon Musk's trillion dollar payout? There's a sort of concerted effort to message that Musk is coming back. He's putting politics aside. He's left the White House. And what can the PCE tell you that the CPI can't? CPI tries to measure out-of-pocket costs that consumers are paying for things, whereas the PCE index that the Fed targets is a little bit broader of a measure. Listen to the big take from Bloomberg News every weekday afternoon on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. 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's the dating game show that believes every good first date should be riddled with crabs. No. Because you went out to a fancy seafood restaurant. I was going to say.

Isn't that nice? It's a battle of the Tinder dates where two of our listeners go head to head and sometimes mouth to mouth to find out whose love life is the most tragic. We'll go over the rules in just a second, but first let's meet today's contestants. In this corner, he's not trying to rush things physically. That's good. In fact, he says he's saving himself for his third marriage. Meet self-control Cole.

That's really funny. Hello. Hello, everyone. Glad you held back in your first two marriages. Yeah, exactly. Good job, Cole. And in the other corner, he gets ready for every date with positive mirror affirmations and a strong cocktail of testosterone injections right into the rear.

Say hello to Tiger Shark, Mark. Hello, everybody. Hello, hello. Careful of those side effects, Mark, all right? Hope you're amped up for this game because here's how it works. One contestant will start by telling one of their worst date stories, then the other will try and counter with a nightmare story of their own. We're going back and forth for three rounds until we declare a winner.

Let's start it off with self-control Cole. Get it. Well, okay, so we were eating and she was staring at my chewing, and I asked if something was wrong, like did I have food on my face or something? And she told me I was chewing like an alpha and it was turning her off. Oh, turning her off.

You're chewing too strong. Yeah. I mean, I kind of get it. Like, if the chewing isn't right from the beginning, 30 years into the relationship, you're going to want to kill the other person. For the female on that one, Mark, we're over to you. So this girl invited me over to her place,

and I found out she was very, very shy. She didn't want to talk But she made alphabet soup for us for dinner And only wanted to communicate by spelling out words Oh my God I kind of like that but like what if you're a bad speller? Not to mention dirty talking in bed Yikes

That's gonna be messy All right My head does not go there for her Soup girl Okay, she's got issues Yeah we're on to round two That means Cole tossing it back to you All right so I took a date to an ax throwing bar

and I thought it would be fun, but then she showed up with her own axe. Whoa. That's actually kind of cool. It's like bowling with bringing your own bowling balls. She's got a case for it. Exactly. And then she asked the bar

if they could put up an 8 by 10 photo of her ex on the target for her. Wow. She really came prepared. Well, yeah, and she was insanely good and accurate at it. Like, she hit it every time. Okay. I probably wouldn't ghost her, though, at the same vein.

Like, this is going to be a tricky one. to get out of. Be very nicely friends on her. How did you feel about that, Cole? I mean, it terrified me. I mean, I feel like I need to go into witness protection. Yeah. Oh, wow.

Yeah. We probably shouldn't be talking about it. Hopefully she's not listening to this. You're great, whoever you are. Yeah, impressive. All right. That guy didn't deserve you. Mark, can you counter?

Yeah, I once went out with a girl. We went to dinner, and she pulls out her laptop, and she hits me with a timeshare presentation. Oh, no. What? Oh, God. Does she have a quota? She's kind of fulfilled by the end of the month?

I didn't know if she was showing me what she did for work or what was going on. And if she was actually trying to sell me something, she kept answering, I don't know. It just seems like a no-brainer if you don't take me up on it. Oh, that's a good line. I mean, by week three, you're going to be happy you did it. I mean, an hour later, I wound up buying a condo for a few weeks. Oh, you did? But you didn't have another date.

Wow. Yeah. Oh. Did you at least get a beach-facing unit? It wasn't even worth it. Oh, God. It's not available when he wants. Okay, we're on to the third and final round.

That means we need your best stories here, gentlemen. So, self-control, Cole, what have you got for us? So I matched with this super hot girl, and she told me she had a surprise date planned. All right. And my red flag radar should have went off because she told me to meet her outside of Starbucks at 3 a.m. What? Oh, whoa. What?

I mean, I just feel like she's planning to commit a crime. Some people are mourning people. We got to get them right when they're opening. 3 a.m. is not the morning. Okay. I'm there waiting and she shows up a half hour later and gives me a huge hug. Wait, you actually went at 3 in the morning? Yeah, bro.

She was super hot. She was super hot. Okay, yeah. So apparently, we were first in line to get this hard-to-find Starbucks bear cup. Oh. Oh, those are fire, yeah. What happened? When she bought it, she sprinted back to her car, took off, and then she blocked me.

What? She just used you to hold the spot in line? Yes. Genius. No. Brooke is so jealous right now. That's such a good move, dang. That's awful.

That was a good move, though. Tiger Shark, Mark, is your last chance. Okay, so I took a date to a rooftop bar that she suggested. And we got there, and they had a table roped off for her with an incredible view. Whoa, okay, BIP. Yeah, I was impressed, and I asked her, how did you get this table roped off? And it turns out every Friday she pays the host extra so she can have a perfect view of her ex's apartment to see if he's hanging out with someone. Oh, my gosh.

She's healthy. I like that she's killing two birds with one stone, a day and spying on the ex at the same time. He's buying back. He sees her on a date, too, you know? Oh, that's smart. How did that hangout go? Well, after she told me that she actually reached into her purse and pulled out binoculars. No.

Oh. Okay. Oh, my God. Again, very healthy. Sure. I can't believe you would let her go, Mark. Shame on you. Oh, my gosh.

And there's the final bell, which means the match is over. So, judges, let's score this. Alexis, who you giving it to? I got to go Cole for getting used for the Bear Cup scam. All right. One for Cole. Brooke? I see, I go Mark for timeshare dinner because he's a sucker that bought it.

I'm nodded up here, Jose. You're the final decision. We got to go Bear Cup, Cole, man. Okay. Self-control Cole. There it is. Congratulations. You are our desperado dude of the week.

Oh, I knew it. How does that feel? It feels amazing. I feel very blessed. I think that should be the opposite of what you're feeling, Cole. But, okay. I wish I had a Starbucks gift card to give him. Yeah, I know.

I'm talking like too much of an alpha right now, Cole. You better simmer down. Text in to 7-8-5-9-2 if you want to appear on the next edition of Battle of the Tinder Dates.

Only the best, Brooke. I see. I'll tell you, there's a reason that they warn you. you make sure to check inside before you return it. Especially that coffin. Yeah. It's so that they can avoid super awkward calls, like the one we made today when old Alan Winterbotton needs to reach out to a tuxedo rental store to say he may have accidentally left something inside his rented clothes. And yes, he wants it back in your phone tap right now.

Former lawyer, this is Tammy. Hi, Tammy. It's nice to meet you. Okay, nice to talk to you. Who is this? My name is Alan. Alan Winterbottom. I'm a customer of yours. Well, we certainly appreciate your patronage, so how can I help you today? Yeah, you can help me because I rented a tuxedo and dropped it back off with you guys. just two days ago. Okay.

And I realized that I may have left a personal item inside of it. All right. Oh, my. Well, can you... I feel like a real dunce. Oh, no, it happens all the time. It happens all the time. Oh, you're sweet.

We're pretty thorough when we go through the tuxedo, so I kind of need your help with what exactly you're looking for. What did you leave? Well, yeah, I really don't... know if you want me to tell you that. Well, I mean, the only way I can tell you if we found it is

if you tell me what it is. I guess that's true. Well, okay, I'm not proud to say this, but I think I left my diaper in there. I'm sorry? Yeah.

It was a pretty crazy night and the host was serving cheesecake, and he Even though I'm lactose intolerant, I just said, hey, what the heck? Go for it. You're only 93 once, right? And you're trying to get this back. It's not just the one.

There's that and some backups, too. Oh, God. I had three other folded ones in the front pockets and a huggy special in the back. Those types of things are disposable, so I. You shouldn't want it back. Why are you concerned about getting it back? Hold on a second there, Missy. Have you been to the store lately?

The diaper prices are soaring higher than my blood pressure. Okay. I mean, if we had found them... Wait a second. I'm racking the old noggin up there. There's a chance. Maybe I left them in the old limo. Okay, that is not...

We don't risk limo. I met two skis at the park. that night. Roberta and Roberta's twin, Regina. Okay, sir, you're going to have to talk to the limo company. Let's just say I lost more than a diaper in the limo that night. Oh, yeah.

Still got it. Sir, you're having some great adventures, especially for a man of your age. Oh, wait a second. What are you trying to do there? Are you sweet talking to me? No. You want a slice of the old. Alan Pye, do you?

Okay, Alan. There's a lot of me to go around. I cannot help you with any of this. Yeah, professionally, right? Right, you're on the clock. No, I can help you with tux rentals? That is it. Yeah, you don't know this,

but a lot of ladies want me for my Beanie Baby collection. Oh, Alan. Yeah, I mean, I haven't looked at the prices since 96, but I'm assuming I'll be able to buy me a nice condo down in Florida with that treasure trod. Oh, God. Yeltsy.

Alan, I can't help you if you left diapers in a limo. Well, you could help me if you know of a place with non-lactose cheesecake. Sorry, I don't. I don't think I know anything that can help you. Well, that really is a bummer because right now the only spot that I know of with a good slices Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. You know, you know the radio show that does them prank phone calls and whatnot? Oh.

Yeah, you should listen because it'll really fill up your diaper. No. Yeah, you're on the radio right now, Tammy. My name is Jeff, and we're doing a phone tap on you. Oh, thank God. Oh, my God. Yeah, your manager, Mike, said, you up because he said it's your five-year anniversary

at the shop. He thought you'd get a real kick out of this phone call. Oh, my God. I am so relieved because I had no idea how to deal with that, or how to get off the phone for that matter. You're saying so in your entire time working there five years, no customers have ever

left a diaper in any of the formal wear? No one has ever called in to retrieve a lost diaper. I'll tell you, it happened sometimes. Those limo parties, they get pretty wild. I am sure they do.

Wake up every morning with phone tabs. Weekday mornings on the 20s. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. What are the natural enemies of romance? Bad lighting. Oh, yes. Wait a minute. Literally.

Literally. Morning breath. Morning breath is pretty much a turnoff. Brooks tap dancing routines. I thought that got it all spicy I'm a hofer, okay? Oh, what is that man? I stand corrected, big turn on.

What's a hooper? You shuffle me off to Buffalo, okay? Okay, maybe Brooks stopped talking for a while. Today, the only things blocking our listener from true love are honesty and truth.

I want to tell you about my new podcast called

not my best moment where I talk to artists, athletes, entertainers, creators, friends, people I admire who had massive success about their massive failures. What did they mess up on? What is their heartbreak? And what did they learn from it? I got judged horribly. The judges were like, you're trash. I don't know how you got on the show.

Boo, somebody had tomatoes. I'm kidding. But if they had tomatoes, they would have thrown the tomatoes. Let's be honest. We've all had those moments we'd rather forget. We bumped our head. we made a mistake, the deal fell through, we're embarrassed, we failed.

But this podcast is about that and how we made it through. So when they sat me down, they were kind of like, we got into the small talk, and they were just like, so what do you got? What ideas?

It's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning, and a guy named Corey is back on with us again. Okay. After he tried getting a second date a few months ago. And I know we do a lot of these, so you probably won't remember him.

I'm just terrible with names, Jeff. Let's go. He did make the fatal air of playing the job game with his date, where you each tell each other, what job would you be good at? And he said, groupie for her. Oh, I remember him. Oh, my gosh, I do remember that guy. Yeah, that was such an insult.

Kind of surprised that woman said no to another date with him, but you know what? He's groupie. Exactly. Corey, it's good to have you back. How you doing, man? Thanks. I'm doing great. How are you?

Okay. And before we start, you didn't accidentally offend someone again, did you? Yeah. Like, you're self-aware now. I'm pretty sure I didn't know. I think I did a good job this time. Okay. All right.

That's good. Well, you may think that, but she is not calling you back, so we don't know for sure. Let's get the full story about this new lady, better lady, hopefully. and how did you meet her? The woman was fine. It was not her fault, Jeff. That is such a weird place to place blame on someone calling someone else a groupie.

Corey is our listener, so he can do no wrong. That's true. It is her fault. Maybe what I meant was a better match for Corey. There it is, Jeff. Okay, with a nicer lady. So let's figure out what's going on with her.

Who did you meet recently? Yeah, so I met Charlotte, and I think the problem last time, like you said, it just wasn't a good match for me. So this time, I was like, I'm going to be super specific and just, like, more intentional about it. Are you talking about on the dating apps? Yeah, yeah. Okay.

Yeah. So I just, like, put some information on my profile that would kind of, like, screen out anybody who just wasn't going to be a good fit. That's a good idea. What did you say? No groupies allowed? No. I promise you. I'm staying away from the groupies of anything.

Okay. Okay. Okay. It's safe for a first date. So what did you write on your, as your criteria? for what you're looking for? Well, the first thing, obviously, was to have a sense of humor, because I feel like that was a problem last time.

Does anyone ever think they don't have a sense of humor, though? Yeah. Some people don't have a good sense of humor. Do they know that? But they know, like, are they self-aware? Yeah. I don't think they know it. Some people don't like humor.

Some people are like laughter. Ew. No, thank you. I haven't ever met one, but okay. What else was on the list? Brunette. Got to be a brunette. Oh, weird.

Why is that weird? Why is that? Why can't you like who he wants to like? Because 90% of women don't have real hair color. They could be any hair color you want it to be, you're cutting on the month, you know? Okay, so diet brown before you meet him. Yeah, exactly.

Like, even if you have, like, natural brown hair and you dye it blonde, then we're not a good fit. Okay. Just want it to be brown hair. Okay. You're very specific about what you like, and that's okay. Got to be mid to late 20s. Mid to late 20s.

Are you also mid to late 20s? I'm 32. Okay. But any girl in their 30s doesn't work. I've just found that that's a sweet spot. That's all. Okay. I mean, Corey, you're taking a risk and you're weeding out the people that for sure won't match with you.

Okay. Yeah. What else is on your list? Oh, there's more. Yeah. So they got to be able to parallel park. That's funny. That's like a funny thing, right?

That's like your humor part. It's got to be a joke. I guess it's kind of a joke because it's mildly funny, but I mean it. Like, it's just annoying to me with people like, can't parallel park. Like, you're a grown up and you can't even do that basic skill. I'm just like, get out of here. Not everyone's in the city as much having to power a park every day. So people, like, have a lot of space to park their car every day.

I mean, I don't like guys that get seasick. So, I mean, there's weird stuff out there, you know? I guess that's, all right. I just think of voting with that. Yeah, totally. All right. And you said there was one more? They got to be okay with me being five minutes late to everything.

Oh, you're a late person. You run late. Yeah. That's helpful information because if someone is a super punctual person and that would stress them out, then they're not a good match for you. finally approves of one quality that you're looking for. I was okay with a parallel parking too.

So out of all the criteria, did you get any matches with women or? You know what? I got one. One. There's one. That's what happens when you. Yeah.

That's why we need to call her back and get a second date. And so is that the Charlotte girl? Yeah, that's Charlotte. Okay. So it sounds like you met up with her. How did it go? Yeah, we went to dinner. I was late.

By not by much. Okay. And we had a little laugh about it. And honestly, and then we just had the best time from there. We went to a restaurant, and we sat outside. It was like picnic benches and stuff. And we just talked for hours. So when did you do the driving test to make sure she was legit on the parallel parking?

She was like, you know, I already did it because, you know, she parked when she arrived there. Okay. And then it was close to the curb and it was lined up straight. That's so funny. Okay. Did you measure? Very hot conversation. Yeah.

I mean, she knows all the steps, but hopefully you got the neighbor's security footage to corroborate the actual story. So it sounds like overall she checked all the boxes that she set out. The connection seems to be good. Yeah, the chemistry sounds so great. What's happened since then? We exchanged a bunch of texts. And look, it's not like she doesn't want to go out with me because twice we've set updates. It just both times after she said yes, something came up.

She's like, oh, I'm sorry, I can't do that. I mean, maybe if she's the woman that fits all your criteria, she's a woman who fits a lot of guys' criteria. Yeah, I'm sure that's possible, but I just, I hope she's going to give me another chance. Okay, that's a good attitude. At any point, did you ever ask if she has any deal-breaking criteria for you? Ooh. No, as far as I know, she likes me and has no reason not to.

Okay. So the date was all about you then and what you want in checking all of your boxes. Not necessarily. We just didn't talk about that. She wasn't like, oh, are you this, are you that? I don't know. I thought she liked me. We didn't just talk about me the whole time. It could be a different story when we reach out to Charlotte. Other than it's kind of, it does seem all about him, maybe.

Maybe he was too focused on his checklist. And if she's not okay with it being all about him, then she doesn't deserve him. Well, she's his only option, so I kind of got to get her work. For now, for now, for now. We might loosen the strings a little bit when we call Charlotte and get you your second. date update coming up right after this second date update if you're just joining us

Corey is back with a very specific set of criteria for what he's looking for in a woman right now mid to late 20s brunette good sense of humor ability to parallel park and has to be cool with him running five minutes late to everything

I mean the wedding vows they write themselves with these basically so Corey put that energy out into the universe and the universe gave him Charlotte. The perfect brunette. They had a pretty perfect dinner day, perfect parallel parking job. The only thing not perfect is he can't lock down that second date with her yet. I mean, but they're still texting, which is a good sign.

Trying to plan. Yeah, trying, but she keeps canceling. Yeah, she keeps saying yes and then changing her mind. Corey, where is your head at right now? But I'm just trying to figure out what's going on. It's kind of crazy. I'm kind of sick of this kind of behavior from ladies' office. Honestly.

Oh. That's aggressive. Okay. You might need to add a new thing to your criteria. Yeah. No women who breadcrumb me. Okay. Then no one would respond to him.

This is literally the only person that fit every other thing. We can't add any more to the list. You're saying there's a chance. I'm saying it may not be Charlotte's fault here. Yeah. Well, let's find out. Okay. You might be right.

But Corey, you ready to do this? Let's do it. All right. Here we go. And Corey, remember, I need you to stay quiet until we can at least get her to tell us a little bit information and then we'll call you in okay bum to the word okay I'm scared what if she lied about parallel

parking guys oh my gosh that's gonna be a bomb this could be devastating that's why she's not calling him back I couldn't admit to him I don't know all right sorry hope I didn't ruin it for everybody let's find out here we go hello hey is this Charlotte

yeah Hey, Charlotte. Thanks for answering. You're on a radio show right now called Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Good morning, Charlotte. Wait, what? I said, good morning. And it's not what she's saying. She's trying to understand why she's here.

Sorry, it's a lot of voices. A little overwhelming, probably. But we're a show. We're called Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning, and we'd love a second of your time to just chat a little bit. About your dating life. How did you get my number? Some would say the universe provided it to us, but others, would say a guy named Corey gave us

the digits. Whoa, wait a minute. Corey called you guys? Yeah. The reason that he did it is because he told us a little bit about your hangout the other night when you went and got dinner together, and he's a little bit disappointed that you two

haven't reconnected for another meetup. Does that make sense? I'm just taking this all in. I mean, he said that you guys have been texting that maybe he was just getting the vibe that you keep canceling on him on purpose. Like you don't, you're not maybe as excited about another date

as he is. No, I mean, I thought the date was cool, but I don't know. He kind of has a lot of requirements, I guess, you could say. Yeah. Are you talking about his dating bio, his list on his dating bio? I mean, that was kind of like

the whole conversation when we were on the date was about his profile. Yeah, we heard We heard a little bit about it. But that's where Corey is in his life right now. He's just trying to figure out if there's somebody out there that can meet the types of things that would fit the style of person that he is. And he thought that was you, Charlotte. Oh, okay.

Would you not agree with that? I mean, it would be nice if he didn't have a list. But the day was cool. It was nice. Oh, good. Then I guess we just need to know if Corey's intuition is correct, that you're blowing him off on a list. purpose. Like, is there something specific that's holding you back? Well, there kind of is.

Oh. Okay. If I'm honest, I feel guilty. Oh, you feel guilty. Well, yeah, you should, but why? No, Jay. He's joking. No, but I really do feel kind of guilty. About what? I know he had mentioned to me that he only dates women around mid to late 20s.

Yeah. Which is fine. However, I'm not in that age bracket. Please tell me you're not younger. What? I mean, if you aren't 24, like, where do you fall? I'm in my 30s. Wait, does that mean you're lying about your age on the apps?

Oh, you have to have it set. I didn't think of that. Yeah, I kind of, I kind of did. Charlotte. Oh, you lied on your body. Why do you lie? I mean, it's not a big difference. Why do you lie about your dating age?

I just feel like guys are very specific when it comes to age. And even though, I mean, we're the same age. I'm 32. But I just feel like they want younger and I'm just not there anymore. Yeah, but wouldn't you not want to meet a guy that wouldn't? I mean, like if you met a guy who only wants to date someone in their 20s, then maybe they're not the right person. Kind of weird.

Like if they're that strict on it. I mean, but the thing is, Corey was such a cool guy. And I feel like we hit it off. So this thing, the lie about your own age, that's the reason why you keep kind of waffling back and forth on going out with Corey one more time? I am not looking forward to telling him, but I feel like, I mean, I have to. Eventually, I have to talk to him. I can't just keep ignoring and canceling. And what's the thing that they say about, you know, just ripping off the Band-Aid and getting it over with?

Without knowing you're ripping off the Band-Aid. Yeah. It doesn't hurt his bad. You kind of done that. Charlotte because Corey's actually already listening to this phone call quietly on the other line. So he heard everything. Because he hung up and he's offended by all this.

Yeah, I'm serious if he's there. Corey? Hi, Charlotte. Oh, did you guys hear that? What a weird grunt. Yeah. You don't sound happy. He's like, you know.

We're going to back away and let you two talk this out. I think you need a moment. Yeah. So Charlotte, you lied, huh? Why? I mean, be honest, Corey. Like, if I did tell you the truth, you wouldn't even give me a chance. Like, I got a hat to fib on this.

She's got a point. Well, I guess we'll never know because you did lie. What? Oh, come on. Cory, you're just going to shut her down like that? Remember, she's the only person that met all the rest of the requirements. She's being really vulnerable. She said she was something and found out she's a granny and a liar.

A granny? Are you 32? Wait a minute. Corey. If I'm a granny, then you're a grandpa because of the same age. Like, whatever, it's fine, Charla. I obviously don't want to date you now. What?

Oh, boy, you're really immature. Okay, you're a liar, but I'm immature because I don't want to date you. That's fine. Like, you've never lied before? Come on. I was very upfront. Oh, a little too upfront. Like, you're not like a 10, you know?

Oh, gosh. Oh, God. Oh, man. Whatever. I mean, that doesn't make you look good. You went out on the date with me. So, look, I don't even want to argue about it. I just want you.

I think it's only fair that you, Venmo me half the cost of the dinner. What? Venmo? Cori, what are you doing, dude? I know that she, like, fibbed on her age, but you liked her. I did like her until I found out she wasn't a truthful

person. Cory, I'm not going to Venmo you. This is ridiculous. Like, you ordered street tacos. I think the bill was, like, $8. Like, you can't be that cheap. It was tacos and, like, a drink, right? Well, you can tell it to the judge. What judge?

Do you take it to a small claims court? Very small clue. You have to be joking. Corey, I'm not joking. No, have you heard of Judge Mathis? You want to go to a TV judge? You have a TV show, Judge Mathis? Boy, you're going to embarrass both of us.

Stop it. Oh, you're going to be embarrassed. I've already been on the show twice because of issues I've had with roommates. Oh, what? He's just dying to sue somebody. I don't know if that admission actually makes you look better. I know, dude. Dude, I'm thinking you just need to venal him the eight bucks.

If he's that desperate for it, just get him out of your hair. I'm not doing it. I'm not going to VEMO you. No, this is ridiculous. The Venmo and the court talk aside, it's at this point that I would like to offer a second date. They already. Oh, no.

We're declining. A strong decline from my phone. No, you won't have to pay for these tacos. They'll be on us, Charlotte. And Corey needs to say yes. He's got no one else that matched him on the dating apps. Can you please stop mentioning that? You're supposed to be on my side.

She's a lie to be the one person who did. Yeah. She sounds kind of like a groupie to. me, brother. You know what I'm saying? Anybody else? I am not a groupie. Believe me. I know. Neither was the last one. It's an inside joke. The last one? So what do you mean?

He calls everybody a groupie? Kind of. He was on this show before, too. The fact that you don't get the joke means you're just not meant to be together, Charlotte. So I'm sorry. Don't take it personally, Charlotte. Oh, no, no, no, don't be sorry. This is helping me. Hey, you know what?

Let's just hang up on her because I've got to get back to my dating profile. I've got to add a new criteria. So your new criteria is women who won't go out with me a second time have to be okay with Venmoing me for half the bill for the date. There we go. Do they give you enough characters to put that in there? You're going to get so many matches after that, bro. That's the whole bio now. Yeah. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Man, these are tough second date updates for us to do where everybody's wrong, but also everybody's kind of right. You shouldn't care about other people's age. You shouldn't lie about your own age. I've been telling Brooke for years to put her real

age on the morning show LinkedIn page. But nope, she's still 26 years old for everybody. It's crazy that everyone believes it. I look so good. You know, when everybody disagrees and everybody agrees, there's no middle ground. It was impossible to get them back together. I disagree. Oh, well, okay. I've changed my mind. Okay, then I agree. That's a hard one. I mean, there should be. be more compromise in the world of dating just in the world not everything is a deal breaker

red flag you know or it can be a flag it doesn't have to be a deal breaker yeah but that's not very good for the plot now is it no that's true yeah yeah do it for the plot huh Jeff yeah okay that's what we're all just learned with that way yeah we're all doing it for the plot here you're gonna hear that for the next four months

every single day but six seven right yeah exactly so email the show even if it's just for the plot And we'll call that person who's not calling you back. Go check out all of our second date updates. Great plots on those. They're available online wherever you get them.

Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Tis the season to fall in cuff. Oh, puff in season. Oh, I thought we were getting arrested. Yeah, that's there for a sec, too. Why not both? It's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning, because according to dating experts, fall is the time when most people couple up.

And of course, many of them, on dating apps. Yeah. Which is why I want to ask my co-host to see if they know the top five lies that people tell on dating apps. Do you have any guesses what the top five lies would be? I like you. Give it height.

High. Number one, I'm six feet tall. Okay. Number one lie that people tell us. I mean, guys, I mean, maybe girls will lie about that too for some reason. But why do guys lie? Like, you're going to meet up with her eventually. She's going to see you.

Well, they're just hoping we're really bad at measurements. Yeah. There you go. Maybe that's it. It's just about getting your foot in the door, too. Like, your little tiny foot because you're short. Okay. Unnecessary, Brooke.

It's the same shape of a doorstop? Any other guesses of lies that are being told. Oh, God. It's all going to be. It could be anything. It could be. I heard hiking. Okay.

Number two, I love hiking. Outdoor activities as a hobby is the most common filler. on dating apps when it's totally not true. It's probably because people stress out when they've asked, then they're asked about their hobbies. Like, I don't, what if I don't do anything? I don't want to come off not interesting. Anyone could talk about

walking. I'm single. I go home and I watch Netflix and cry. You can say you in on that. I'll go through the rest real quickly. Number three, I'm looking for something serious. That's a lot. B-S-you-R. Over 40% admit they're really after

something casual. Number Four, I barely use this app. Have you heard that before? Yeah. It's funny because I say that. I go on Tinder once every six months, and I say, and no one believes. She's like, yeah, right. You should just say the opposite.

I'm on here so much. I'm on her daily. Never seen you before. And number five, that's just my roommate in the pick. Oh, of course. If it's really an ex. You're really hot female roommate. Yeah, we're kissing.

Those are the top five lies people tell on the dating apps. If you're looking for love out there, personally, I just listen to the second date updates. Yes. There you can hear real lies. Laser stories coming up right after this. We often think we know our type in dating. Tall, funny, a certain job. But the research shows we're usually not the best predictors of who will actually make us the happiest.

As we often say on the happiness lab, our minds lie to us about all kinds of stuff. and that definitely includes the kinds of things we need to be happy in a relationship. That's why it helps to stay curious. On Bumble, features like shared interests and prompts make it easy to notice right on someone's profile initial sparks of compatibility, like a shared love of cooking or the same nostalgic TV shows. Shared interests and prompts let you showcase your personality right on your profile and connect with people who get your vibe. And with photo and ID verification, you can feel confident the person you're talking to is

real, so you can date with a bit more confidence. When you treat dating as exploration, instead of sticking to a rigid type, you open yourself up to happier, more meaningful connections. So maybe your type isn't tall, dark, and mysterious. Maybe it's loves podcast as much as you do. Stay open, stay curious, and let yourself be surprised. Download Bumble today.

On this week's episode of the next chapter, I, TDJakes, get to sit down with Oprah Winfrey. A media mogul philanthropist and global trailblazer. My life, although it may look like an anomaly, it has only been possible because I was obedient to the calls. This episode dies deep into how Oprah turned pain into purpose

and what it really means to evolve with everybody watching. Every decision I have ever made has come from sitting with the spirit, and asking God, what would you have me do first? Whether you're rebuilding, reimagining, or just trying to hold it together, this one will speak directly to you. Listen to the next chapter on the I Heart Radio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcast, episodes drop weekly. What up, y'all?

It's your boy, Kevin on stage. I want to tell you about my new podcast called Not My Best Month. where I talk to artists, athletes, entertainers, creators, friends, people I admire who had massive success about their massive failures. What did they mess up on? What is their heartbreak? And what did they learn from it? I got judged horribly.

The judges were like, you're trash. I don't know how you got on the show. Boo, somebody had tomatoes. I'm kidding. But if they had tomatoes, they would have thrown the tomatoes. Let's be honest. We've all had those moments we'd rather forget. We bumped our head.

We made a mistake. The deal felt three. were embarrassed. We failed. But this podcast is about that and how we made it through. So when they sat me down, they were kind of like, we got into the small talk, and they were just like, so what do you got? What? What ideas? And I was like, oh, no. What? Check out Not My Best Moment with me, Kevin on stage on the Iheart radio app, Apple Podcast, YouTube, or wherever you get your podcast. And she said, Johnny, the kids didn't come home last night.

Along the central Texas plains, teens are dying, suicides that don't make sense, strange accidents, and brutal murders. In what seems to be, a plot ripped straight out of breaking bad. Drugs, alcohol, trafficking of people. There are people out there that absolutely know what happened. Listen to paper ghosts, the Texas teen murders, on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you. you get your podcasts. It's the radio segment that's mashing together McDonald's and Wendy's to create a limited time sea snack, the filet of fish frosty.

Ew. It's so crows. Now comes in tasty tilapia or halibate chunks. Oh, a halibate would be expensive. My kids don't need to use those gummy sharks anymore. There you go. Put the ocean in your mouth with 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 sardine smoothies just don't. This first laser story is out of Florida. All right. A 44-year-old man named Peter Riera raises chickens for a living. And the other night, he was out at a bar knocking back a few when he got into a discussion about poultry. It could be a hot topic.

As you would if you're a chicken farmer. This is his area of expertise, and it was with three other guys. who'd been drinking most of the night, and that discussion turned into a full-blown argument. Of course. Listen to the expert here, guys. Of course, in his mind, Peter is the foremost expert, and these bozos didn't know what they were talking about when he came to chickens.

There's a lot of chicken idiots out there, Jeff. Like someone talking about radio. I think we know a little bit. You know, we're in it. Well, they wouldn't listen to his opinion, so he did the reasonable thing, pulled a gun, and started firing. Kepoia! Oh my gosh.

After that, cops got involved and arrests were made. Oh, yeah. Here's a clip of a local detective explaining what happened. The shooter evidently raises chickens, and the conversation was about how many eggs a chicken can lay. One victim ran out into the roadway, trying to get away from the shooter. The other two victims hid. We had several phone calls. The shooter himself called 911.

Arming yourself with a handgun when you're under the influence is not a good. idea. There's never going to be a good outcome with that. I really thought he was going to end that with some sort of, why did the chicken cross the road jokes? Yeah, I know. He really was setting itself up for that. I feel like most chicken arguments do end this way, though. It is Florida.

Peter is now facing multiple charges and is being held without bond. Oh, no. For what it's worth, all three men said Peter was way over the top about his chicken knowledge, and that didn't sit well with them. I'm just worried about who's taking care of the chicken

now. You know? Chicken's pretty self-sufficient, though. I don't think so. You are not a chicken farmer. I want him to call it and play you and chicken trivia.

Yeah, there we go. Bok, bach, bach. This next laser story is out of the collectible corner. With Wicked for Good hitting theaters on the 21st, it must be good timing to auction off the original

Wicked Witch's hat. I'll get you, my pretty, and your little dog, too. Oh my God's got to be worth like millions. Yeah, her hat is iconic. The pointy black hat that Margaret Hamilton wore in 1939's The Wizard of Oz will be auctioned on December 3rd. So how much will it get? Speculation is all over the place, especially because the original pair of ruby slippers that Judy Garland wore,

those sold for $28 million last year. Oh, my God. And I'm sorry, right now, everybody loves the witches more. Yeah. I mean, Alpha Energy, absolutely. day. I can see that. So the 28 mil, that's a lot more than expected. As for the hat, last time it sold was only a year ago for $2.9 million. Oh, my God. So are they reselling it now because of the news. Time means everything in the collectibles.

The experts are saying it could go for more than double now. That's smart. That's smart. Who would have ever thought buying a $2.9 million hat would be a good investment. I know. Like, everyone should be making fun of you. What I want to spend my money on is none of your business, okay? If I want to wear the hat around while I cook, then that's my right.

Interesting. He paints himself green. Screw you guys. This next laser story is out of food news. Jello is celebrating its 125th anniversary with three new limited edition Thanksgiving items. Oh. They're calling them no thanks molds because they're shaped like three of the most divisive Thanksgiving foods. Brussels sprouts, cranberry sauce, and pecan pie.

Oh, what boy? Those are like one of my three favorites. I mean, the cranberry I can skip, but I love some Brussels. So to be clear. Wow. This looks like a dinner from a 1970s cookbook is what it looks like. Well, just to be clear, they aren't doing the super weird flavors thing. These are just silicone molds that are shaped like those polarizing foods, not new flavor mixes.

So the cranberry mold comes with actual cranberry jello. but the Brussels sprouts is lime and the pecan pie is orange flavor. It's not very appetizing. It's hard to look at. Yeah, it's not very aesthetic. It's interesting. Jello's a hard sell-o, my kids.

But now your family has a name and a backstory for the bird that it's getting this year. So each no-thanks mold costs $5, and it comes with a kit with a box of jello mix. They're available exclusively on walmart.com beginning today. Hey! Wall Supplies last. Is it ever a good ploy of a company to do no thanks on a food item?

I don't know, but I want to try to make these shot versions. You know, add some alcohol, get it in a little flavor. Good thinking, Alexis. This next laser story is out of holiday headquarters. If you're shopping in a target this holiday season, and it seems like an employee's being extra attentive, they're probably not flirting with you. I think you probably could always assume that, Jeff.

Is anyone on the other sound? Well, I think most of the time they wouldn't even talk to you, but this is just a new policy that Target is supposedly launched called the 10-4 program, which requires their workers to engage with customers when they're within 10 feet of a shopper. Oh, wow, you have to. So basically, all Target employees are going to stay 11 feet away from everyone. They'll try. But if they are within that 10-foot range, they're being told to smile directly at them. Oh, God. That's so creepy.

Eye contact. Then as you get closer, they'll make eye contact and wave or even say hello. Hello. Remember, she's just being friendly. She's not flirting with you. I don't know. Do you ever think she likes? If they are within four feet of a shop,

or employees then must ask if they need help finding anything. Or they're directed to ask how their day is going or a similar pleasantry. Like, hey, you want to wear my red vest and re-sticker things with my price gun? Just friendly chat. I had a friend who worked at Target a long time ago, and she said that one of the company policies is they couldn't have blood clots in the aisles, and that was more than one red target worker called for a game.

Yeah, they're the blood clots. I was like, what? It's a weird policy. Target says heading into the holiday, they wanted to make adjustments and implement new ways to increase connection during the most important time of the year. I like when people leave me alone when I'm shopping.

Me too. Don't ask me how my day is. Yeah, I get if I'm approaching you, but don't approach me. Yeah, I'll come find you. Yeah. Exactly. No, Jay. Eye contact, though. I mean, it's kind of. Just look down, everybody. Yeah. Check me out. Other places have similar proximity rules for customer interaction, including

Walmart and Disney. So, it isn't the first time a company's asked workers to carry around mental tape measures. Dude, Disney will. They'll run up to you and dance with you. The Disney interactions are wild I feel bad for them I know I'm like I'm okay Speaking of mental tape measures

This guy just used a tape measure last night Wait a minute He's measuring socks Oh not the shell For stockings Of course He wants the biggest one Santa can put whatever he wants to

And that's how it means Laser Stories has come to an end for the day We'll do it again Same time on Friday It's come to my attention that I may have missed the previous one or two rounds of Brooks trivia here because I happened to be busy attending to very important personal matters. They were important. The show is what's important.

Whatever happens at the rest drop down the highway is not. Listen, the point is I am back today because I want to be here. And not because police raided that rest stop in a quote, sting operation. I don't care what the newspapers say, my lawyer is handling all of it. So welcome back to the damage control edition of Beatbrook. Please don't tell us anymore, so we're not accomplices. That's all I want. We'll shake hands afterwards and you'll know what happened. I do not entrust you to use the soap. Today on the phone, we have returning player Matthew. He's 0 and 1 against you all time. Matthew,

you believe me, right? Of course I do, Jeff. Thank you, Matthew. It's nice to have an How many sting operations have you been part of, Matthew? The jury's on that one. I'm not liable to talk about that. Exactly. Just because I was in that highway rest stop bathroom doesn't mean I was doing anything nefarious. That's what my lawyer told me, and that's what I'm sticking to. Exactly.

Okay. Where are you going, Brooke? The rest stop? It's to the left. Okay. She's going to go check it out. Anyway, in the meantime, let's play the game, Matthew. You got 30 seconds to answer as many questions. as possible. If you don't know, and you can say pass, but you have to beat her out right if you want to win, and I hope you do. Are you ready?

Brooke is now back in the studio here. And what else should we talk about with Matthew? We are coming up on Thanksgiving here. And according to Matthew, he's told our producer his three favorite things to eat on that holiday. Ooh, I like to discuss this. What do you got? Garlic mashed potatoes, which apparently he mashes himself. Good.

He enjoys his mother's recipe for stuffing and turkey, but only if it's super moist. You like the dark meat. No, my mom taught my wife how to cook it very well, too. So it's a very special method of even the white meat is incredibly moist as well. Do you guys use the turkey bags? Yeah, we do use a turkey bag. That's one of the methods. I do the secret.
