Second Date Update You know, Brooke always says, there's nothing sexier than a subservient man who can admit he's wrong.

Oh my God, I'm turned on right now. She's so dumb. You're so dumb, I don't say that. The more tears, the better. Oh, yeah. She definitely has a type. That's why I'm a little bit worried that she might fall in love with the listener who's asking for our help today. Oh, is it a sad guy?

He openly admits he screwed up on his date. Man. I do like a man who could admit that they're wrong. That's right. So, Charlie, fair warning. Brooke might try and steal you away from the lady that we're supposed to be calling here. But welcome to the show man charlie hey how's it going you notice brooke was the first one

i mean i was gonna i was gonna go with chuck but i didn't know if we were there yet we'll save that for a little bit later but charlie uh we want to help you out tell us about the girl that you want us to call today. What's her name? Her name is Megan. Okay. Uh-oh, Brooke. It's fine. I know. I'm a little disappointed. It wasn't my name. It's okay. I guess, where'd you meet Megan? I'm assuming a dating app. Yeah, you know, she's

one of the apps. I feel like that's how everyone meets these days. Yeah, I know. I feel like it's a stupid question that we even ask anymore. I know. We hit it off right away and had a good conversation online. So then I asked her out, and then, yeah, I just... At this point, I think I kind of screwed it up. Okay.

Oh, so it's like the lead-up, the talking, all that was, like, awesome. That's all good. So before we get to the really sexy part where you screwed up, first tell us about what you ended up doing for your date. Okay, so I thought it would be fun. You know, we're both into Marvel movies.

We were talking about that online. So I asked her if she wanted to go see one. Oh, nice. That's cool. Why is that? I mean, that's a great idea, especially when you're both fans. So she was, like, totally cool with it.

And I asked her if I could pick her up, and she said that that was fine. She was down for that. Okay. So, you know, so good. Yeah, especially, I mean, big sign of trust right from the beginning that she'd let you pick her up. Yeah. So then I drove there.

And, like, I had planned on, you know, getting a drink with her before. I thought, you know, I'd pick her up. We'd go for a drink. Totally. But then the parking lot was really packed. And everyone was there early wanting to see it. So, you know, the drinks beforehand didn't really work out. Bro, that's why you got a car bar, dude.

Come on. You're making a mistake. Drink before. Take a couple pulls out of the bottle in the front seat, bro. Once you're parked. No? Okay. You are 18 years old, right? Get to know you moment.

Yeah, so it was already getting kind of stressful because I couldn't find parking. I had her in the car. I wanted it to be perfect. So, you know, luckily someone left. I had her in the car. I wanted it to be perfect. Yeah. So, you know, luckily someone left. I found parking up front. So we're, you know, back on track. Okay. And then the movie starts and it was intense.

Like, I really liked it. It was a very, you know, powerful movie. A lot of action. Did you have any time before, like, even when you're looking for parking to connect with her, though? Why does that matter? A little bit, yeah. Who cares about that? I want to hear about the Marvel movie.

That's the whole point of a date, Jeffrey. Those movies are long. Yeah, that's true. Fine, did you have to connect with a girl? Great. Jeff, did you talk? Well, I mean, we talked, like, small talk in the car, and, like, I mean, I have to pay attention to the road and stuff, so I wasn't talking as much with her as I normally would have.

I think a lot of dudes can relate to that, being like, you're stressed because you want everything to go so smooth that you had a plan in your head. Then it's like all the parking's down the street and I couldn't find this. And the next thing you know, in your head, everything's falling apart. Just a bad tone for the date. Yeah. You know, like we're here to find out what went wrong.

Right. And that could be something. Yeah. So let's learn about what went wrong. What was it? So this is what I think I started to screw up. I deal with stress by vaping. What?

Oh. Oh, yeah. Well, I mean. In a movie theater? Brooke, don't patronize him. He's a sad boy, okay? Just let him have his moment. Yuck.

Yeah, like I need to take out my vape when I get stressed, and it just like calms me down. So here I am sitting next to this pretty girl, and like I just really needed to vape, and I didn't want her to see me do it. Oh, you have to secret vape. I turned away from her. I pretended I actually dropped my keys. So I bent down, took a quick hit from under the chairs, and the smoke disappeared.

I didn't think anyone knew except the kid next to me. He looked at me weird, but whatever. Probably smells like a strawberry colada. You vaped underneath a child? Well, kids do this every, I guess. I don't know what the kids do these days. But it made me feel more relaxed. Okay.

Got it. Right, because you're hitting nicotine or whatever. Yeah. So then a couple of times I tried to talk to her a little bit during the movie briefly. But, like, she didn't really respond. Like, I'd say, this is cool. and she'd just say, uh-huh. Yeah. She probably was just trying to focus on watching what was happening on the screen.

I don't know, dude. There's no way she didn't know. I don't think it's the vaping. I think it's the not sharing. It'd be like if you pull out a flask and didn't know her, you know? Oh, yeah. I'd be like, I mean, it's like smoking. It's like the same thing.

Yeah, it's just new age. You know? So, Charlie, do you think maybe Megan saw you do it? Well, I don't know. So let me just tell you what happened. So we left the theater. Everyone was hyped and talking about the movie. It was so good.

And I said, let's go next door and grab a drink. And she said I should probably get back. So I started to get a little disappointed. But I was like, wait, are you serious? Like, it's only 8 o'clock. Like, why wouldn't you want to get a drink with me? Oh, you went to the matinee. That was the first problem.

You actually said that to her, though? Are you serious? Yeah, because it was only 8, and I thought it would be fun. Okay, alright. I mean, she told me she had an early day the next morning, so I drove her back. Oh, that must have been an awkward car ride. Yeah.

And, like, she got out of the car even before I could try to hug or kiss her. So, like, I just don't know what happened. Like, did she see the vape? Like, I'm thinking probably, but, like, maybe she just doesn't do it or it was a turnoff. It's just like Brooke said. It's just like smoking. Some people are like, oh, I don't do it, but I don't mind. And other people are like, oh, that is so gross.

Yeah. So who knows, like, what her thoughts on that are. Like Alexis is like, ew, a 4 p.m. date? Disgusting. I'm sorry, you're going to a superhero movie at 4? No wonder there were so many kids. For your information, it was a 5.15. It wasn't at 4 p.m.

Happy hour had already started. Let's just play a song. We'll come back, call Megan for you, and we'll figure out if it was the vaping that turned her off or if it was something else that happened at the Marvel movie. We'll do it in the second date update next. Second date update. One of our listeners, Charlie, took his date out to a Marvel movie,

and he did all the right things. He bought the tickets himself. He drove them there. He attempted small talk. You know, we ask a lot of these guys in the world. Just like to be attempted though. You gotta give him credit. Sure. The one thing

he maybe did wrong was vape in the theater mid-movie underneath a child's chair. Yes. And then not offer to share said vape in the theater mid-movie underneath a child's chair. Yes. And then not offer to share, said vape. When he was trying to hide it. But, you know, we never asked in the first part, Charlie, this was a superhero movie.

Did you wear a cape to it? Because we've had other listeners dress up for their movie experiences. Were you in full costume? No, no. But this is giving me stress again. I think I just need to plan a much less stressful date next time.

But it's a movie, dude. Yeah, but it was like opening night for a really popular movie. Yeah, that does make sense. I would also add to your list, like don't ever vape in the movie theater again, but you know, just maybe as number two. Thanks, mom. I appreciate it. He's an adult. He can do what he wants to do. ever vape in the movie theater again but you know just maybe as number two thanks mom i appreciate

it he's an adult he can do what he wants to do but he's like also don't go swimming after an hour all right well we're gonna call megan right now we're gonna ask her what the deal is if it really was the vaping and secret underneath the child or maybe there's some whole new problem that we didn't even know about just the whole date maybe maybe she didn't like his parking skills guys just don't bring up the vaping under the seat if she doesn't bring that up like that would just be cool not to do that in case she didn't see the clouds okay i don't make promises all right here we go hello hey is this megan yes megan what's up Hello? Hey, is this Megan?

Yes. Megan, what's up? It's your best friends over at Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Hey, Megan! Very friendly. How you been? Yo! Hey.

She's being so polite. Like when someone's like, hey, remember me? You're like, yeah. Hey, friend. Do you ever listen, Megan? Yeah. I like you already. I believe you, Megan.

I like you, Megan. I'm going to take you at your word. And so obviously you know why we're calling. We're calling because you love Marvel movies. I do. Very smooth. Yeah. Are you going to surprise me with tickets or something?

Oh, man. That would be cool. Well, you just went and saw the most recent movie, so? Oh, man. That would be cool. Well, you just went and saw the most recent movie, so you should be good. Yeah, I did. How do you know that? Well, because one of our listeners, Charlie, told us that you and him went out on a little date. Oh.

Oh. Energy check. Charlie. What do you think about Charlie? I i don't know i don't know well we're hoping to know a little bit more than that because part of something we do on this show is called the second date update that's what this is and he's trying to figure out why after your date you've gone kind of cold on him oh okay even during the date when you chose to leave at 8 p.m.? Yeah. I mean, that was obviously an excuse, right?

Yeah. OK. Should he know? Was it really apparent why you wanted to leave early or were you just not feeling it? I think he should know. OK. Really? Well, he didn't say that I could say this, but I'm going to go out on a limb here and say, were you turned off by people who vape?

Uh-oh. Jeff. What do you mean? I'm just his vape. Are you cool with the vape? I don't mind. You DTV? You were such a dork in high school.

I don't understand what you're getting at. Are you saying he was vaping on the date? I don't understand what you're getting at. Are you saying he was vaping on the date? I don't know. What was your reason for not calling him or wanting to see him anymore? Well, it was like opening night of this movie and the parking lot was super crowded. And Charlie just kept getting like really flustered, like driving around. And then finally just pulled into a disabled spot what and whipped out a placard to put on his mirror oh I didn't know Charlie was disabled or does he have like yeah he's not he's not disabled

oh if he was disabled he would have headed straight for that parking spot in the beginning. Yeah, you're right. Yeah, because he said, sometimes I do this. Sometimes. So he has a, but how do you get a placard? Only a doctor can give you one of those. I mean, I didn't even want to ask because I was just like so turned off at this point. It's all I could think of during the movie.

Is that why you didn't talk to him much during the movie? Yeah, people who do that are the scum of the earth. That's so bad. I'll tell you, Megan, he never brought that detail up to us when we asked him about the date. Because it doesn't even phase him, Jeffrey. I bet he uses it all the time. Maybe he's so high he didn't even know where he was parking because he vapes wait oh there's just so many strikes why do you guys keep bringing

up vaping was he vaping on the date like i didn't think he was i don't know you know you know who's better to answer that question is probably charlie yeah who just so happens to be on the other line right now wanting to talk to you wait charlie you're on the phone right now yeah yeah i'm here wow wow yeah charlie so i can explain though what happened like i can you know it's actually kind of a nice story and it's like touching to my family. Oh, family touching. I love that. I was very close with my grandmother. I know we didn't get into this on the date

because we didn't go for drinks. Like I probably wouldn't have explained it, but she died a few months ago. And, you know, I was so close with her. And before she died, she said to me, she's like, part of your inheritance until it expires is i want you to take my parking pass and every time you use it i want you to think of me that is the cutest thing i've ever heard that is a nice thing to pass down are you lying brooke

he told me she like really wanted me to have this like she didn't have a lot of money like You lying. Brooke. No. Sorry. His grandma. It's his grandmother. He told me she like really wanted me to have this. Like she didn't have a lot of money. Like she didn't leave me a lot of things that I just, I always smile and think of her when I use it. So I wanted to treat Megan. Well, like we were going to a date,

we were late and I was like, Oh, like this is like a gift from grandma that we could get into the movie right before it starts. Megan, Megan, there you go. There's the explanation. Do you feel bad about yourself now? Is she crying?

Is that what you're thinking? Megan, are you crying too? I don't know what to think. I've never heard of that before. And I'm pretty sure that's still totally illegal to do. And doesn't take away from like the fact that we took a spot of someone who could be disabled. Or another grandma. Your grandma's just up there somewhere looking down, laughing

at whatever old person had to park in the back and use their walker to the front. Plus, you're at a 5 o'clock movie. There's probably tons of grandparents at that point. I think of that. I love the show. And now they're like, well, of that. The Earth Show. The Earth Show. Diner, and now they're like,

well, our movie. That's tough. That's what my grandma wanted me to use it for. Something like this, like when I'm out on a date, she always wanted to see me like with a nice girl.

Like I'm sure she was smiling watching this from up above. Oh, there's my grandson getting some action tonight. And there's the old lady in the back struggling to get there. Yeah, I mean, Megan, I really think you were going in a little bit too hard on him here.

Really? He has a dead grandmother. Well, I think we all do. The majority of people do. Yeah, and I would hope that I would get a little bit of grace for that. Not for, like, doing something that was not only illegal but, like, morally wrong. It was her dying wish. It just is a question.

Like old people make questionable decisions all the time. And they're wise for it. We should listen to them. Respect your elders. Are you questioning my grandmother's sanity before she passed? I'm just questioning more than that. You know what I'm questioning? Is there love happening on the line right now?

That's my question. And I would love to keep this going. That's what Charlie's grandma would have wanted, is for you to go out on one more date, and she would have wanted us to pay for it. So we're just going to guilt Megan into a date right now. I like it. I don't know.

I'm probably going to have to pass on this one. The grandma story is too weird. Did his grandma also give him a vase? Is that what you guys are... Oh, maybe. Her name was Jewel. Sweet Jewel. She knit a little holder for him.

You guys, it's okay. Please don't bring my grandma even more into this than she already is. Sorry, man. We're not trying to disrespect. I like grandma. She was so nice. So, what did we learn from this? I always keep my promises. I never said Charlie

vaped under a child's chair in a movie theater. Didn't say it. It never left my lips. You kept bringing it up. Not exactly like that. Both of you, it's done. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. All right, let's just be honest for a second.

Who hasn't parked in a disabled spot for like two minutes while they ran in real quick to grab something? Okay, I've done it. I'll admit it. You have? Yeah. Really? You actually left the car. I pulled in.

I get to get a prescription. If I was sitting and I left the car running, I was in it, and that way I could see somebody. I'm with you, Brooke. But I've never parked a car. I shut the door and got my prescriptions because I'm a diabetic. That doesn't count. I know Alexis has run over four disabled people, but she's never parked in one of their spots. Not true.

No, they were elderly. Yeah, there's a difference. Oh, excuse me. I gave them, like, five five minutes and they took too long. I know, Brooke, you're saying that you haven't done it, but I'm just, I'm waiting for TMZ to leak that photo. Oh my God. Where you parallel parked in a wheelchair lane at the Goodwill. God, that's terrible.

Move over, limpy. I gotta limpy. I got to get in. Anyway, if you ever want to get a second date update, reach out to us, the sensitive people here at Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. We are. I feel like, Jeffrey, you're using that spot all the time now by the way that you're talking about it. Jeffrey's the most concerning in this line. It is. Anyway, you can always email us. Yes.

We'll call the people who aren't calling you back, and we won't out your secrets. Yeah. Sure you won't. Or we won't. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.
