All right, we hear you, we're listening, and I promise tomorrow starts our brand new episodes for the second date podcast. Pinky Promise. Yes, Pinky Promise. We're so excited. It is definitely drama-filled, so you're not going to want to miss it. And today, we just got a classic for you to enjoy, all right? Before we get to it, comments, Alexis.

Yes, Tyron Banks said, when I go fishing and don't catch anything for a while, I put on this podcast and then a fish bites as soon as I put it on. Hey, like a jeans. So we help. I guess. Everybody cast your pulse. I don't know the saying. There we go. We know Jeff's really into birds.

Maybe he's talking to fish subliminally on the air. That was my fish face. Oh, you're talking to them. Okay, yeah, let's start this, please. That's what I said in fish. Brook and Jeffrey in the morning. Second date update. Here's a dilemma you might face in the dating world.

Let's say you have a hot date scheduled. Okay. But the day of, you are just out. out of it. Whether you're sick or you're jet lagged or just depressed because of what happened on Love Island earlier, whatever it is, you know you're not in the best shape. Do you cancel, you reschedule, do you ask a friend to sub in that night for you? Is that option?

A lot of things you could do. This are good for me, bro. I wasn't. But I bring it up because one of our listeners knew he wasn't in peak form for date night. and now he needs our help. His name is Lawrence. So Lawrence, welcome to the show. Hey, thanks for having me.

Yeah, bro. Zero to 100. Where are you at right now? I'm like a 20. I don't know, 19. Oh, you're still on. Oh, wow. Wow.

Most people don't, Brooke doesn't normally ask people to rate themselves on attractiveness on a scale of 100. It wasn't attractiveness. It was like how he was feeling, Jeff. Okay, before we move on, a scale of 1 to 10,000. Yeah. I'm kidding. All right.

with the rating scales. Tell us, you said in your email that you knew you weren't in the best form the night of your day. Why did you say that? So the day before, I had gotten back from this bachelor party in Vegas, and it was crazy. Oh, no. You were hungover. I feel way less bad now. Yeah, that is true. I'm sorry. This is different. Why would you schedule a date the day after a bachelor party? Yeah. Because I really thought this girl was cute and I thought I was my only shot. I really just wanted to meet her where she was at. And you were going to be a responsible guy at the bachelor party in Vegas.

That was the plan, but obviously I didn't follow through. This is like when you have a Pilates class the morning after a night out. You know, if you're like, I'm going to make it. So there's more steak when it comes to a date. Those classes are expensive to cancel. But at the same time, if you feel like this is my one chance to actually go out with this really cool person, you're not going to skip or like pass on it. You're going to do whatever it takes.

Yeah. So I get why you would go out with her. But the vagus thing from the night before, you were sleep deprived. That's what you were trying to tell us. On top of him over. It took forever to get a ride home from the airport. When I finally get home, I ended up staying up, editing my fantasy baseball lineup, which was not a good choice. Hey, dude, you know, I just had one, too.

So I don't blame him at all, guys. It takes an hour to edit your lineup. The sympathy I had is gone now. Jeff set it up like you were going to get really sick or something out of your control. I know. I thought food poisoning. You stayed up all night. Do we know? Maybe he was sick on top of all of this.

Look, I came in last place last year. That can't happen again. Okay. The girls are getting you know. This is so dumb. And then I finally get to sleep and my dog woke me up in the middle of the night for no reason. Okay. Yeah, I'll get it.

People that complain. Tell us what did you do with April? What was your date idea? I ended up taking her to a bowling alley. I did it on purpose because it was noisy. and, you know, I wanted to get some of my energy up, and I took some of the focus off of me. Okay.

Okay. Wouldn't that suck? No, I mean, the thing is you can have a couple beers, feel a little bit better. I mean, I get your thought, you know? Like, you don't have to be the entertainment because you're not up for that, right? Exactly.

You know, as soon as she turns around to throw a strike, you could just take a little nap for two minutes. So tell us, how was the vibe between you and April? It was good if I remembered anything that she said or like anything besides the inside of my island. Okay, anytime someone says it was good, but I don't remember anything she said. I'm exaggerating a little bit.

I remember some of it, but I remember being really tired and not being a bad. Okay. So what do you remember? Kind of spacing out a little? I remember we ended up having some greasy food, had some laugh. And then after that, we left, and I was walking out of the bowling alley.

And as she was leaving, I guess she thought I was funny or something. So she was like, do you want to get another drink somewhere else? Okay. That's a good sign. That's a great sign. And my mouth said yes, but my body was like, hell no. Oh, she could just tell. Yeah, my mouth does stuff that my brain never agrees to all the time. So I see where you're coming from. I know, but, you know, it's life.

Okay. So now you're going out for another drink, even though you don't really feel up for it. Or did you go home? No, we went out for another drink. We went to this two little urban bar that she's been dying to go to, and we had a couple more Is this a moment of regret? Like, things had gone well. You should have just chopped it up to a victory.

Yeah, that would have been smart. I just wanted to do anything that she suggested because she was so cute. Yeah, you were happy. Did she know you were in a bachelor party the night before? No, I didn't tell her that because I didn't want her to get the wrong idea about what we were doing there. Oh, yeah. Oh, it does sound a little. Why would that be the wrong?

Yeah, I don't get it. I was chill. We just played soft golf and drank. But, sure you did. Honestly, that's not what people think of when they say bachelor party, right? Yeah, lots of glitter at those top golf places that gets on your, on your clothes. Oh, he likes that. Yeah.

He's really tired, so he thinks I'm funny. Anyway, let's fast forward to the end when you and April left from each other. How did that go? So we were leaving the little bourbon bar, and I walked her to her car, and we had a nice hug, and that felt good. And then I went home and I slept for 15 hours. Oh, my gosh. God, that type of sleep feels so good. Yeah, it really is.

Yeah, it felt so good. But then when I woke up and I texted her, she didn't answer. And then she hasn't answered me since. Okay. That's why I contacted you guys so you can call her and find out what's up. And she hasn't even gotten the full you, you know? Yeah, true. Like if she liked and enjoyed a night that night, when you're on, it's going to be great.

Yeah. Now, let's do that for you. We're going to reach out to April. You get about three minutes to take a quick nap, so you're at 100% when we come back. Everybody, the listeners do. Yeah, we'll all do it. And then full energy for our second date update when we continue right after this. Hold on.

Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Second date update. This second date update is brought to you by our new sponsor, Holy Sheet, Mattress, and Pillow Emporium. Heavenly comfort at unholy prices. If you're severely hung over from a raucous bachelor party in Vegas, get horizontal and recharge in one of our premium queen-sized mattresses equipped with rubber sheets for an extra fee. Hey!

See, missed opportunity if we actually had a sponsor like that. You know, you should send that to the sales department. I'm sure that they will be on it, on the phone with holy sheets as we see. They really should. Second date update was built for a mattress store sponsor, But if you missed it, our listener, Lawrence, was dead tired going into his date night with April after his bachelor party experience. But he powered through and the hangout at the bowling alley and the bourbon bar was fun, at least the parts that he can remember from that. But we're going to try and step up and save it for him.

Here's the deal, guys. April's super cute. I don't know if I did something wrong or if she got back together with like an X or something. Okay. I don't think that's it, my man. I mean, I think. that maybe a good area of growth for you would be maybe admitting when you made a mistake, right? It's a second date update, not a therapy.

Well, I'm just saying you played victim a lot to those fantasy baseball teams, victim to the bachelor party. Nothing is more unattractive than someone playing victim to stuff like that. I am with you there. Like, those are your choices and you made bad ones, and that's fine. And maybe I made a bad decision coming to this. I don't need to hear this from my fucking mom. Oh, okay. Okay, Lauren, slow it down.

You ask my thoughts, and that was my honest thought. Well, maybe you can sugarcoat them a little bit for our lovely listeners. If people want advice, they need to be open to criticism. Anyone that comes on her show does know. All right. You know, bottom line, I don't think she knew I was tired. I think it's something else. Something else that did wrong.

Really? Okay. There we go. All right. See, and that's being open, and I appreciate that to other options. It's the optimism that we've been waiting for for the first three minutes. Now, let's just dial your date, April. We'll see if she answered.

and hopefully we can get some information out of her. Here we go. Right. Dialing it right now. Hello. Hey, is this April? This is she? Who's this?

Hey, April. We're actually an entire morning radio show called Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Hey. Hi. Welcome to the show, April. Good morning. Hi. Am I on the air right now?

You sure are. with the most positive and optimistic, uplifting show that you will ever talk to. Yes, that's what we're known for. It is. Okay, what's going on? What is this? Well, this is a segment that we do called Second Date Update. I don't know if you've ever heard of that before, but basically it's where we try to help our listeners get back in touch with somebody after going on a great first date with them.

Okay. This is not necessarily great. Well, I mean, we hope that it's great, right? Yeah. Okay. Sorry. I didn't say who you went out with the other night. It's one of our friends named Lawrence. Ah, okay. Right? You guys went bowling. Ooh. Yeah.

She means that not sarcastically in any way. I didn't actually mean sarcasm there at all. Exactly. It sounded like a fun night. We're wondering to get your perspective on how the whole evening went. Um, it was fine. It was mostly fine. Mostly fine. Okay.

Okay. Like, mostly fine. Like, I'm planning on call it and back. I mean, I don't know. I just, I'm mostly like, this is kind of strange to be, like, blasting out on the radio. You know what I mean? Totally. Yeah, we get that. Yeah. And all we're really looking for is to help out Lawrence because he is a little bit confused. Uh, okay. Well, I mean, look, most of the date was positive. He's a fun guy. He's cute.

Good. Okay. But, I mean, I'm surprised that he doesn't know. Like, I mean, I think there was a point where we kind of, at least I definitely couldn't, and I thought he probably also felt we could not come back from. Uh-oh. It's never good when someone says us. Yeah.

A point you can't come back from. Could you tell us more about that? It's pretty bad. Uh-oh. Oh, no. What happened? Yeah. All right.

Well, we went out to, you know, whatever. out for the whole night. And he walks me to my car. Okay. So this is the very, very end of the evening. It's the very end of the evening. And I like, things had gone well. We were certainly flirty. And at that point where you're like hoping for a kiss or like how well? Well, that's the vibe I was getting for sure. And then we get to my car and he just kind of stands there. And I'm like, okay, I'll make the first move. I lean in to kiss him. Yeah. And he was very like what I thought was polite like just like being very gentle and he's just kind of like not really doing too much with the kissing and then it's kind of just like not much is happening at all he's a bad kisser

my eyes well yeah you could say that because when I opened my eyes I realize that he's sleeping he has fallen asleep oh standing up I mean he was kind of leaning against my car but he was out he fell asleep mid kiss who's the bad kiss him are you that doesn't feel good Let's not feel good. Let's not focus on line. When did he wake up? When I was like, dude, are you asleep? And then he just kind of like opened his eyes and laughed a little bit and was like, okay, see ya.

Oh, God. I don't know if he. This is a little awkward, but are you sure we kiss? Oh, shit. Okay, yeah. Yeah, I thought it was just like a super long... Wait, is that him? Yeah, sorry, April.

Is he on his call? The way the segment works is we have the other person waiting on hold on the other line to talk to you and normally we call them in, but I think he felt like he had to say something. Lawrence. Are you joking me right now? He's been listening this whole time. He needed to hear it.

He really did. He doesn't even remember kissing you. Yeah, Lawrence, you didn't bring up anything about a first kiss when we talked to you. Because I thought it was a super long hug. I don't know. Oh, my God. This is exactly what I'm talking about.

This is humiliating. No, don't. It's embarrassing to him, not to you. It's actually impressive. Yeah, Lawrence, you've got to explain to her. Oh, oh, here's what you don't know, okay? Oh, God. I went to a bachelor party the night before in Vegas,

and then when I got back, finally, I was up until, like, 4 in the morning editing my fantasy baseball line. I didn't mean all those details. Yeah. Okay. I didn't really get a lot of arrests the night before, but I just thought you were so cute and funny,

and I just wanted to power through because I really like you, and I'm sorry. And it wasn't my best. And I'm going to wrap it up. All right. That was a lot. I wasn't expecting you to say that much. But April, do you hear what he's saying?

He was exhausted from a long trip before. Yeah. I mean, I'm hearing him. It sounds like he's super responsible. I mean, fantasy baseball priorities. No, I get it. Well, he showed up to me. That's true.

It was so important for him to meet you that despite how tired he was, he was willing to do this anyway. That's a good angle. if we can spin it that way. I mean, I think more is that he made a mistake and he would love a redo, right? Because he knows he screwed it up. Well, I did kiss her which is better than I thought, so I didn't really screw that one. I mean,

99% of the date was awesome. You don't remember the kiss. You definitely don't get to count it. No, you're not getting like points for that at all. She said you were a bad kisser dude because you were basically like kissing a dead person. She was the one who initiated

the kiss. At that point, I was a dead person, but the next time I will be fully a lot. Oh, God. I mean, he did have pretty nice lips, but still. You did stick around for a very long time with a very

tired man. Just imagine how great he's going to be when he's fully rested at 100%. Oh, God, be a bowling. I actually agree with Jeff on that. I mean, like, you wanted that kiss at the end of the night. I mean, sure, it was the death of the date. But if you could redo it, it may be great. I bet on the next

state, he'll even let you change his fantasy baseball lineup for him. No, that is not cool. Don't you mess of the man's fantasy. She doesn't want that. Okay, you know, good. Maybe that's date three material. But we are interested in date number two, April. He's not lying.

We really want you to go out with him again and we'll pay for it if you say yes. I mean, can you promise that you're going to get a full night's sleep and like never ever tell anybody besides everybody that's listening to this show that you fell asleep during our first kiss? It would be a great story at a minute, though. I will not do that again. All right. The promise is there, April.

All right, but I'm not paying for a single thing. Not one single thing. Okay. You're like all the women that we have on this show. Awesome. Congratulations, you two. You're going out again. Yay.

Awesome. Alexis, do you approve of this couple? You ship them? Hey. You would like a wreck like him. Broken Jeffrey. in the morning. Against all odds, it's another successful second date update.

They're actually going out again. Hey! Who knew you could fall asleep mid-kiss and it's still cool? It's actually pretty impressive. And my wish for them is I hope it's not just the first kiss. I hope they hit all of the major dating milestones while he's asleep. Yeah, like mid-proposal even. Yeah, meets her parents asleep.

The first I love you is while he's dozing off. They get engaged mid-nap. Just, oh. Signed to the paperwork on their first home. Well, I'm sure they're going to go back and listen to this in podcast form and fall asleep mid-second date. You are inspirations to all of us and all of our listeners, you too.
