Second Date Update. I know Brooke has said multiple times, almost suspiciously, that she's not on any dating apps. Yeah, she always brings it up. Hey, Brooke, what are you doing over there? Not swiping on range of men online, that's for sure. I am not on dating apps. I think, yo. See, she's doubling down. What do you want me to say?

We're all going to believe her on this, but let's say Brooke was on the apps. Okay. What would her profile say? Oh, my gosh. Probably, give me your name, phone number, and how many Cheetos you can fit in your mouth. And she'd pause awkwardly after phone number. Yeah. So nobody would understand the Cheeto joke.

And are those puffs or the classics? Yeah. I mean, I'm not sure what that means. Also, I come from a clown family. Ask me more. He's a magician, okay? Don't ask, I'll tell you. means but I come from a clown family ask me more it would probably be a total disaster but what about the normal people out there what's on their dating profile let's find out and talk to Elena who emailed the show for help help okay welcome to the chaos hey elena hey everyone how are you elena would swipe right on

me right elena totally yes yeah way to be nice elena do you into the ladies or the guys well right now we're talking about trey okay okay and what does trey have on his dating profile that stuck out to you you know what a couple things i mean one physically beautiful eyes gorgeous smile i mean just typical like drop dead and then an average of 10 cheetos right enough with the frito-lay obsession yeah okay so he's a beautiful man yeah and what did stick out was he loves adventures he like wants to fill his time with his hobbies of adventures. What does that mean? That's so vague. Like, is he specific on that?

Well, he liked biking. I mean, just lots of, like, outdoorsy stuff. Okay. Adventures makes it sound like he likes to get out and travel and see new things. Yeah, rock climb. That's what I think of. I mean, that's a really nice thing to say in your profile, even if it isn't true. Yeah, it's true.

So did you meet up with him? We did. We got some drinks. And right when he walked in, he looked so much smaller in person. Like his pictures, yeah, made him look just a little bit more like. Are you talking height wise? Are you talking size? Everything.

Everything is small. It was like... Yeah, and so... I'll let it from your voice. It sounds like you were disappointed in how he looked physically. Is that true? Usually smaller on a guy isn't exciting.

Yeah, no. Well, it's not about the size, but how you use it. A girl's obsessed about height. Yeah, I wasn't. He said everything. That's muscles. That's everything smaller.

It's just a difference. Okay, so I did bring it up. I was like, you know what? I'm kind of surprised. Like in your photos, you look just a little bit more. Wow. What? That is bold.

What did he say? Well, I wasn't mean about it, guys. I don't know. But also, if he's a catfish, he should get called out. I mean, if it's on purpose. That's the other thing. There's so much craziness online. But he was laughing about it.

He says, actually, I'm on a health kick. And I was like, oh, really? What kind of health kick are you on? And he's like, it's a huge health kick. So I've definitely lost, like, 30 pounds recently. I was like, oh, okay. And you're like, you didn't need to. I liked you when you were bulking. didn't know that's what i was thinking i didn't know you could shrink from

that stuff too like height wise but well i couldn't see his height but you know what i'm saying like small so anyway you not believe this this man tells me he has a treadmill in every single room in his house what was that a joke no so i start laughing because i'm like oh wow crazy health kick yeah and he says no really my buddy and i cleaned out a warehouse that had a bunch of treadmills ellipticals blah blah blah so they sold a bunch of them but there were just some leftovers so i kept a lot of them what so he's got like a little mini 24-hour fitness in his apartment either that or he's got an area in each room to throw all of his clothes on drying rack okay so this isn't a red flag to you

nice to mix up the scenery. It keeps him motivated. If he keeps seeing the treadmill, he'll want to eventually get fit. It was intimidating, too. It was intimidating for you a little bit. A little bit, too. But you know what? The conversation, we ended up laughing about it.

And then it was like, we're having drinks. But we started having those fun, like, hey, let's go on another date. Let's see each other again. Yeah, and it turned out super fun. having those fun like hey let's go on another date let's see each other again let's yeah and it turned out super fun and out of the blue he says to me hey what would you do if i show up at your house tomorrow and say hey let's go to the virgin islands and we leave in three hours that's crazy and i was like heck yeah oh said yes. You're like a wild child. You're ready to go.

Was that a joke or was he serious? You know, I think he just threw it out hypothetically, the trip. But I am an adventurous lady. That's interesting. So he sounds like, I mean, also like he's just a big dreamer, right? Like he's always got some big grand plan. And you love that idea. Yeah.

And it was fun to like daydream like that and yeah so how did that night end not in the cayman islands no not in the payment unfortunately well we said bye with a with a hug which was kind of no kiss yeah no kiss you think a guy like that would go in for a kiss if he was really wanting to take you i thought so too and it was a hug that wasn't as big of a hug as she was expecting because he's so small. My arms just kept going. Yeah. He just touched her own elbows.

And he wasn't there to pick you up the next day like he threw out there. He definitely didn't come by. Okay. He didn't come by. It's been like a week. It's been a week. Yeah, but I don't know when I did. I keep thinking, was I too much like a friend almost?

I don't know. Sometimes those big dreamer people can also be big flaky. Yeah. You know what i did i keep thinking was i too much like a friend almost like no sometimes those big dreamer people can also be big flaky yeah you know what i mean like it's like a lot of talk and not a lot of follow through he's like off hiking a mountain somewhere that could be but your email to us said that you've been texting with trey a few times well i've been texting he just hasn't responded maybe he's just waiting for you to show up at his house what if he's literally in the cayman islands and was like oh i forgot to pick her up yeah it's like the jamaican version of home alone but we're gonna hopefully bring it to a happy conclusion when we come back we'll call trey for you and try and get you your second date update get you over to one of those islands right after this, okay? Awesome. Alright, hold on.

Second date update. One man, one woman, and 20 treadmills. All running at the exact same time. How romantic! It's a 400 meter sprint to love. You'll put this one!

At least that's how it's going for our listener Elena. Oh, it's so funny. The guy that she was recently out with named Trey because they went and grabbed some drinks. She learned that he really does have treadmills in every single room of his house. That's just nuts. That was the weird part of the night. Afterwards

it got a lot better from there and they were laughing together. They were planning future dates and he even threw out a theoretical of maybe taking her to an exotic island showing up at her house and just whisking her away i know and it got her really excited but it's been a week since that date happened and there has been no second date and no trips abroad oh you know it's like you felt like you recovered from the very beginning but maybe he just really was insulted when you told him he was smaller than in his pictures. Yeah, well, maybe because you patted him on the head after you said that.

Do you think that's possible, Elena? Possible? I don't know. It was a pretty fun conversation after that. Yeah. You could see his reaction. I couldn't get over a guy telling me I looked bigger than in my pictures. I don't know that I'd call him back. But he's also working out a lot. Yeah, that's true.

Let's see. We're going to call him right now. Hopefully he's not in the middle of one of his treadmill workouts. That would be amazing if he was. He's so small, I imagine it's like a hamster. I'm in the kitchen. Let's try and call him. Here we go.

Hello? I think we're safe. It's quiet. Okay, I think we're good. Hey, is this Trey? Yeah, this is Trey. Hi, Trey. You're on the radio right now with a show called Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. How many people are on the phone?

Wait, what'd you say? Answer your first question. Four people are in this room. And this is a radio show called Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning that you're on right now. Hey. Why? Yeah.

Great question. You're sharp. We like that. This is a segment called a second date update. And we're trying to help out one of our listeners get a hold of you and maybe even see if we can hook you up for another date. Because you went out with her already one time. Name Elena. Oh.

Oh. You remember her, right? Yeah, I know. I know who Elena is. Okay. Did she have you call me? Yeah. That's how the segment works we uh we kind

of get a vibe of how the first date went and then we reach out on her behalf to try and figure out how we can get you two back together there's a reason she's confused it sounds like on your date you guys were talking a lot about like going out again and how fun that'd be i mean yeah we had a good time she seems like like she's fun, and that's great. She said a lot of the same stuff about you. Yeah, there was, I don't know, there was a moment, though, that was kind of a deal-breaker for me, so I don't think that's going to be working out.

Oh, no. Well, that's all right. I mean, you're allowed to have your opinions on stuff, but it would help if maybe we could know about the moment and pass that along to Elena just to help her out. Right, make her feel better to have some... Closure. Insight.

Would you mind sharing? Okay. Weird. Okay. I guess I should explain that I have this thing that I do when I go out on a date with someone for the first time. It's kind of like a litmus test. Oh. Okay.

We've heard a few of these before. We do a lot of these dating segments, and there's a lot of people that have different types of tests when they go out, and they usually don't end very well. Yeah, but Brooke still, she loves them. Yeah. It points them into a marriage now. I mean. I usually ask something to the effect of, like, if I show up at your door tomorrow and say a plane's leaving in three hours and we're going to the islands. You want to come?

Oh, that's the test. Actually, it's fun. Well, she mentioned that to us. And she said that she was on the floor, right? Yeah, she told us it was a fun hypothetical question that you asked on the date. Yeah. Did she tell you how she responded? She seemed excited. Yeah, I'm down to travel or something like that yeah no that's

the that's the wrong answer to that question that's like the worst answer you can give me wait let's go is the wrong answer if you're inviting someone to do something and they agree i thought you were like adventure boy what's the right answer the right answer is let me check and see if i can or you know let me look at my schedule or, you know, I'll have to tell to my friends or anything, really anything else that indicates that you've got a life of your own that you're living. Oh, you drop everything for a stranger. I can kind of see that. But it was a hypothetical question.

Like you weren't actually doing it. Like, honestly, if you actually showed up at her door, she probably would have to make some prearrangements. Yeah. And maybe, but she got very excited. She kept saying, you know, I'm going to pack my bags and be ready to go. She had no indication that she has any responsibilities, that she has a

career to worry about. Wait! Hold on. There's no responsibility? Hold on, Elena. Spontaneous. Well, it's too late to surprise him with it now, because, Trey, you probably heard your voice at this point. That's Elena who's been waiting to talk to you.

Trey, you're so funny because you know what's so funny about my responsibilities is I probably make three times what you make. Oh! Wow! I mean... I guess that's a flex. Like, good on you, Elena, but why do you bring that up?

I don't think that's true. How are you going to test somebody? Okay, hold on. We need one of you at a time. Trey, what do you have to say to Elena that she makes three times as much as you? I say that's really unlikely. I don't believe that's true. And even if it were true, it has nothing to do with anything right now.

Okay. He sells treadmills on the side, guys. So if you ever need a treadmill or anything like that, he's very good at selling those things. All right. Let's settle this once and for all. Let's all go around the room and say how much money we may pay you. Brooke, you start us off. Yeah, Brooke, you first. Well, I mean, Trey, that should be great news for you because then Elena can pay for the

Cayman Islands vacation and take you with her. The tables have turned. Let's hop in the TJ and fly down there. I'm sure she's got one. I mean, this all seems so silly. You guys are fighting about a hypothetical question. Is it just a hypothetical question or, Trey, do you really do this and actually take women to islands if they give you the right answer and say, let me check my schedule first? You sound very eager, Jeffrey.

I want to know because I'm a very, very busy man, Trey. I've got a lot of hobbies and responsibilities. If she answers, you know, she gives a good answer to the question, we get a second date and maybe it goes from there. Okay. Wow. So it is in the cards. It's like a door to that.

Not with me. It is in the cards, absolutely. Yeah, I've done it before. But it's not something that's going to happen the first night we meet. Okay, you're like the troll under the bridge with the riddles. If you answer that correctly,

then you can pass. Alina, I'm hearing you saying, like, no, not for me. Like, why are you so closed off to it? Are you, really? Yeah. I would never, now that I know he tests

and that there's all these hypotheticals, it's just, no, I'm over it. There's not all these hypotheticals and all these hoops. It's just one question. But now I kind of see her point because it's like he could be like, hey, do you want dessert? And she's like, no. And he's like, oh, well, you just failed another test.

It's a lot to judge someone's entire life on how they answer that question. And again, another hypothetical. You know what, guys? It's my prerogative to ask the questions I want to ask on my first date. Sure. The fact that she brought up money right away to try to one-up me is a huge red flag. It's a really low-class move. It tells me I made the right choice.

You're the one that said I didn't have responsibilities. I just wanted to let you know that my house is fully paid off. And I have plenty of things to go around. So that's the thing is you didn't even ask, but you're going to bring up that I don't have responsibilities to make yourself look good. Babe, I don't think so.

Does anyone else? I mean, I know you guys are kind of fighting right now, but I really feel like they're a good match. I know. Hypothetically, hypothetically, if that never happened. We might have been if she didn't get me on the radio to put me on the spot. Oh, now it's this.

Okay. Now it's our fault. See, that's her test now. Yeah, it's always my fault. That's the thing. This is the type of guy he is. I see now. Oh, man.

I'm the winner. Yay. What? Okay. You're not. Even though this is going horribly, I'm going to ask anyway to send you guys out on a second date that we would pay for. Yeah, we make so much money. Locally, though, we can't cross country borders.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Let's keep it within the area code. Not in the Cayman Islands. Maybe like a Caribbean restaurant. Anybody? That's a big hard no for me. That's a no for me. Oh, okay.

It's just a little joke. A little jab. Elena was great. We had a lot of fun on that first date, but that's a no for me okay it's just a little joke a little jab elena was great we had a lot of fun on that first day but it's a no for me okay well mutual no at least now i'd like to offer to send trey and me to a private island trey elena will you pay for it not me definitely not your No, come on, you make all the money. Your house is already paid off. Come on. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Catch Jon Stewart back in action on The Daily Show and in your ears with The Daily Show Ears Edition podcast.
