Listen to Carefully Reckless on the Black Effect Podcast Network, iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcasts. I'm Emi Olaya, host of the podcast Crumbs. For years, I had to rely on other people to tell me my story, and what I heard wasn't good.

You really f***ed last night. It felt like I lived most of my life in a blackout. I was trapped in addiction. You had to grab the lamp and smash it against the walls. And then I decided I wanted to tell my own story. Listen to Krumz on the iHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hey, you found us. It's Brooke and and Jeffrey in the morning on our second date podcast. Not like, is that hard to find these days

since we're charting on the top comedy charts every week on Spotify. You're welcome. I go to bed every night and I just stream it on 5,000 different laptops. Oh, you're the one that's doing it. That's how we're getting there. I'm sorry guys, but I'm tired of those ratings.

Oh. All right, hey, thanks for being here. And don't forget, we do have 45 more minutes of this painful show. If you can endure it, over on our main feed, just go to Brooke and Jeffrey for that one. But right now, let's get to what you came for. That's a second date.

Yes. Yes. Second date update. Just doing this segment, we hear from couples who meet in all sorts of strange new ways. Yeah, for sure. But this one is going to be particularly terrifying for one person in this room. Oh.

Jose always thinks he's the one that's going to be scared. Jose's fears are right today. Oh. Why? Because apparently, according to this email, they met while doing one of Jose's absolute worst fears, physical exercise. Oh, oh. I thought you were going to say like a roller coaster or something, Jeff. I was like, what?

So Jose, let's try to keep the whimpers and begging for mommies to a minimum here as we talk to a guy named Vaughn about his first date. Vaughn, welcome to Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. How are you doing? All right, doing good. How about you? Oh man, Vaughn. We're doing good. Yeah? Doing good, how about you? Oh man, Don. Doing good.

Yeah, I mean, what is this? You met a girl at the gym? Is that what he's getting to? No, I participate in a run club. I don't know if you've ever done one of those before. Wow. My husband's in a run club. Should I be concerned?

That really is the worst club I could think of. Yeah. Cause mine would be like video game club where you sit and don't move. Hey, they usually end at a bar. Yeah, that's actually kind of fun though. Okay, is this like an exercising club or a dating type of club? It's kind of like a mix of both. If you're single, you wear black or something dark.

Oh. If you have a girlfriend or boyfriend, you wear a color. Okay. Brooke, what does your husband wear to his run club? Well, he's going to be wearing an orange reflective vest. After this report. She's like, usually he just wears a bunch of pineapple shoes. I don't know what that means. Okay. How many people are in this club?

There had to have been at least a hundred people. There's a party. Oh, this is like a big event. Okay. Cool. it's a crazy thing because there's a lot of hot chicks there like had it been at least like people who exercise can be good-looking Jose still not gonna join a run club. No. No. How did it go? Me and my dad, Bob, bros are fine. We're pretty good. That's how I met Tess. Tess, okay. Okay.

Yeah, she had really nice calves. Oh, dude, she's like, I'd like to thank stairs. That's what I'd like to thank. Well, the fact that you didn't get maced right there is a win in my book, so. Oh my God, I think it's such a good compliment. You were able to like, get to know Tess a little bit there. I did and I got to see of the deal I got her number

You also have a different definition of sealing the deal with But good I'm glad you got her phone number I think just the first deal Yeah, one of many deals Yeah, were you able to turn it into a date? Yeah, we met up a few days later at a bar. Perfect. And I had a great time. Oh, you did?

OK. Tell us about it. Yeah, give us the highlights. All right, so I've been watching my diet lately. So I compiled this note card. Note card? I told him this is how many calories that we burned on our run What and and now we had to gain it back on the menu, huh?

No, no Don't talk about calories ever with a woman. I don't think I think he's just trying to be like fun and creative and playful with Need to count calories together No card like don't you have like How did Tess react to the note card move Oh, yeah, and your face she's not calling you back I think that counts as a way. Oh my god. So you guys ordered a bunch of food together, right? Yes Okay, okay cheat meal then and then she guiltily ate it all

Yeah, no what what happened next well we just kind of hung out and grab some drinks and had a good time The place that we were at had some really cool tall shelves tall shelves Like you would put books on or something. What do you mean? Yeah? Yeah, it looked like you put books on but they had a bunch of bugs on it mugs Yeah, kind of like steins and um so these drunk dudes are by there they're i don't know why they're standing by there but they're kind of hanging out and stumbling around there and they actually bumped one of the shelves that was holding this really expensive looking one oh god i was about to come down and i saw that tessa's

right underneath it and i made a quick movement just pulled her out of the way She got a little upset, but then crashed right behind her the mug Saved her life. That's the universe dude. You were put in a situation to protect her and you did Was she grateful or was she upset by that? Oh after she saw what crashed behind her then she realized Yeah, that would have been her. Yeah. I mean that's kind of wild You must be thinking I'm getting a kiss for sure You nailed it. It was like one of those kiss moments. It was and she gave me one right on the cheek I mean it means that she's like somewhat attracted to you.

That's the kiss that my mom gave me when I graduated fifth grade. My statement still stays true. Romantically I don't want to look too much into it. So how long has it been since your bar date happened? Oh man. That was like two weeks ago. Oh. Okay.

So you've had a couple run clubs in there too, and you haven't seen her or heard from her at all? Yeah, I went to one and I didn't see her at the last one. But you have texted her. Yeah, I gave her a couple of messages. She hasn't replied back. I was kind of... Did you send her another nutrients table?

That's my problem. Is it possible that she didn't want to burn off all those calories that you gained together that night? Oh, she liked them? Yeah, she wanted to hold on to them as a memory of your guys' time together. Sorry, no more physical activity. I'm holding these cows in. It's gonna be my new excuse for not exercising. Sorry honey.

I want to remember this meal. These are love cows. I worked out hard today. Sorry. Anyway, let's come back. We're gonna give Tess a call for you and try and get you your second date update right after this. Second date update.

It is rare on a first date where you get an opportunity to look like a real superhero. That's a good point, Jeff. It is rare on a first date where you get an opportunity to look like a real superhero. That's a good point, Jeff. But our listener, Vaughn, swooped in to save the day when a falling beer mug was careening straight towards the head of his date. My goodness. Tense. And before it struck her, Vaughn reached out with his powerful arms and pulled her to safety

as the mug shattered in the exact spot where she was standing. I mean that should automatically earn him five more dates. That's the superhero fee. That's why Superman always has dates. That's why he saves Lois Lane constantly. Are you joking me? He's expecting something in return this whole time? Yeah, he's a man. You think he's working for free?

He's a man. He's so typical. But he's exhausting. It's true, but Vaughn hasn't even been able to score one more date with Tess, which is right. He's reached out to us for help. But Vaughn, how did it feel to know that you had your Superman moment?

Oh, I felt like the man of the restaurant. I was that guy. You're the star. You were him. Did people applaud you? Were they asking for your autograph and shaking your hand as you walked out of the bar? No, you'd be surprised

that there weren't many people watching. Everyone's probably focused on the drunk guys who knocked over. Yeah. Next, you just have to work on your laser eye vision and you're going to be set dude. So let's call Tess for you right here and try and get you your second date update. You ready? Yeah.

I'm down there right now. Hello? Hey, is this Tess? Yeah, what's up? Hey, what's up? Hey, what's up? Hey, what's up? Hey, what's up?

Hey, what's up? Hey, what's up? Hey, what's up? Hey, what's up? Hey, what's up? Hey, is this Tess? Yeah, it's Tess. You sound busy. Are you busy, Tess? Sorry, Tess, to bother you. Oh. Who is this? We're a radio show. We're called Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning, and we're really, really excited to talk to you about a date that you went on not too long ago. it's with a guy named Vaughn oh that you met

at run club oh yeah okay but here's the cool thing you got we know that you got to spend some one-on-one time with him at a fun bar that had cool shelves in it. We've heard. Yeah, yeah, it was a it was fine. Yeah. I mean, yeah. Well, laughing still, is it a nervous? Yeah. Have you heard this segment before where we call people or? No, actually.

But yeah, we went to this bar and we know we heard the story from Vaughn we talked to him about it because he had a great time yeah he's been wanting to see you again and the reason he reached out to us is to try and figure out if there's a reason why you haven't met up again oh great okay well if you heard the story then you probably do you know the part where like the mug fell off the shelf Oh, yeah, yeah Yeah, that was like that was a pretty cool moment for him I mean not for you because you almost got hit by a mug but pretty amazing that he saved you from it, right? I

Thought it was so weird. It was just so extra. There was no need to do that. You like what we want It was just like the whole place was covered in mugs like on these shelves He swooped in like in this weird split second to like save me from this mug and like I was like, you know like why I was like, ew, like why? She said ew. Wait, he was stopping it from hitting you on the head. Yeah, but I feel like I would have seen it like before it did, like he didn't need to go out of his way to be the savior of the bar.

But I thought he said you didn't see it till after it crashed right where you had been sitting. I mean, it wasn't like that high up. It wouldn't have like killed me or anything. It was just, it was so extra and we had just gone out I was we were there like max an hour at that point like we hadn't spent any time together alone before that I don't know the time limit had what's that? Maybe she needs to know her superheroes before they step in

Batman I don't know you yet I mean, it's at least an hour and three minutes. Listen, Batman, I don't know you yet, and you can tell me a little bit about your life. I've had a friend stop talking to guys who are like, I'm gonna stand on this side of the road, like when we're on a walk, because it's safer for you there. And they get turned off by that. God, your friend's awful.

Why is it awful? Okay, so you were saying you would have preferred that he stood back and just let you figure out if a mug was about to hit you or not and deal With it on your own. Yeah, it just seems like he was just like obsessed with me So I just I have this like major it after that point With you, so he is probably paying attention

I don't want you to get the feeling that he's like obsessed with you always watching and trying to protect you At a certain point I have to let you know that he is actually listening in on the conversation Like a weird way. He just wanted to hear the reasoning it was he was smart enough to hang up already He just wanted to hear the reasoning it was he was smart enough to hang up already Are you there von yeah, I'm there Let's let them talk and maybe they can work something out go ahead you two What am I gonna do just let a heavy glass box fall on your head and potentially give you a concussion? I need to be very clear about, like, me as a person,

I don't need you to step in for me ever, and you doing that literally like an hour into our date was very weird. I just like, I can do things myself. I'm not an idiot. Yeah. Yeah, I'm sorry as a man I naturally have to be in the position to say people and whether you're a stranger or somebody I've met

Okay, so if you two were like walking across the street together and there was a car coming at you Tess You want him to step back and just let nature take its course I think that I am NOT dumb enough to step out of the way I think what she's saying is that she doesn't want to be treated like a damsel in distress like she wants to be treated like she can handle her own emergencies okay whether it's a car pummeling towards her or a mug falling from her shelf, let the girl do her. So if this scenario plays out a second time, you don't want me to give you a heads up? Like, hey, look out! Like anything?

Is that too aggressive? Nothing. That probably would have been less gross than you weeping in. I love how it's gross. And it would depend what your tone was too. If you were telling me I'm a child that can't fend for myself in the world, yeah, I'd probably be offended.

But if you're telling me in a nice way, oh, heads up, I'm a normal kind human. Ma'am, have a moment of your time I actually see what she's saying to cuz you're in public at a bar yelling it to I'm just starting to get the ick from him to What I'm driving with my husband and he acts like I don't see other cars on the road and he's like, oh my god! Literally, I know they're turning, okay? I'm not an idiot. That's a good example. Well, I think if anything, Vaughn has definitely learned his lesson to not help you or look after you in any way.

He can say, watch out, he just needs to say something cool. No, he can't say watch out, he has to be like, excuse me, but a look at your surroundings watch out just in a cool tone Vaughn you're capable of doing that right? I'm just really confused right now perfect. That's exactly where she wants So with that said we would like to offer to send you guys out on another date And we would I don't want to like be too aggressive in offering to pay for it or anything so We would I don't want to like be too aggressive and offering to pay for it or anything so we just want to Facilitate a meetup of some sort tests if you're open to that I mean not like I feel like I would but the fact that you're still really confused is not like I'm not understanding why you're so confused because I just explained to you

Yeah, do you have anything else to say to her listen Tess I'll put in words that you can understand What do you want to say? I'm sorry New phone who dis no day, I'm good Just got hit in the head by just got hit in the head by a falling drone. All right. Better luck next time. We can board again.
