Hey, it's Brick and Jeffrey in the morning. Sometimes we go, should we not post it today? Now we'll post it. I mean, it's kind of crazy.

We have an episode six days a week. Yeah, it is why. And people know exactly what time. Like, if it's late, if Alexis uploads it a minute late, they're like, hey, where's my fix? We love this job. And we're grateful for you because the only reason we have it is because you're listening.

Yes. So let's see what's on the comment section. Yes, I'm going to mess up this name. But it's something like, hey, Thamovic. Definitely wrong. So probably actually nothing like that. I've been listed to you guys for about a year and a half now, basically every single morning at 6 a.m.

Either at the gym or out running. And every now and then I just randomly start laughing like an idiot in the middle of my workout while everyone around me slowly starts wondering if I'm mentally stable or just having a full breakdown before sunrise. All love from Libya and I hope you know where that is. Hey, there you go. That's so cool. Thank you so much for listening.

It's so incredible to hear from listeners all over the world. That blows my little mind. Libbya, that one's in our article, right? No. No, we'll get a map out for hosting. Jose. Don't worry. We appreciate you. And we got your podcast starting right now. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Second date update. We have a listener who sent us an email asking for a second date. And these are her words.

She said, it's tough being on the dating apps as a single mom. Oh, I bet. Trying to find time to go out and also meet a guy who's open to the idea. But recently, I think I finally found someone who's actually worth it. it. Oh, let's do it. Let's fix it for what's wrong. Wouldn't you know he's not calling me back? That's all right. That's why we got your back. That's not good, but that's what we're here for. We'll talk to Eve about it. Eve, welcome to the show. Hi, thanks for having me. Oh, my gosh, I can't wait to hear about this guy. What makes you think that he's finally worth it? Okay, so like you said, I'm a single mom. It's been hard to date. So when I do find somebody that I connect with,

it's really nice because, you know, it's worth a night out. It's worth a nice dinner. It's worth getting dressed up for and that kind of thing. It's worth paying for the babysitter. I know. I mean, there's so much that goes into like just even my husband and I going on a date. You know, the planning and the babysitters and then the canceling. Like, I can't imagine doing it on your own.

You cancel on your own husband for the days. You're looking for a husband. Okay. No, the babysitters always cancel. Oh, I see. Well, that makes a little bit more sense. So you met him on the date. apps. Tell us how the date went. I thought the date went great. Reggie picked me up and went to a salsa bar, like a dancing salsa bar. Oh, that's a like a little sexy date. That's fun. Like food salsa or like dancing salsa? Like the culture of Latin dance. No one eats just salsa. That's just saying that there's a business opportunity there for somebody who wants to jump in and take it. Actually, I'd be there. Like this pickle salsa I just heard about recently. I would drive right. Not far off like a spot show. Yeah.

We're investing. Okay. So a dancing date. Yeah. So, you know, we danced and we had a drink and it was really loud, but like it was really fun. Was he really good at dancing? Like, my roommate got into salsa for a while and I would go to bars with her.

And the people who were into it were unbelievable dancers. You and my ex would go to Latin dance night. And that was the funnest time. But there's people on the floor. They're so good. That are like throwing each other. So what level were you at? Oh, you know, we were the level where we were doing.

our best and having fun. That's perfect. That's the majority. I just wondered if you're on the same page. Yeah, how far did he toss you across the room? How many feet? Thankfully not very far. Oh, wait, you got to go to the bathroom here.

Let me help. The thrower. All right. That's so fun. That sounds like a great night. Sounds like you're connecting. Yeah, and having fun. We had such a great time.

But, you know, those kinds of places, like, they're really loud and it's hard to talk. So we went to another place after that where we could just talk. and, like, get to know each other. Oh, what about it. Even better. Well, it sounds like this guy put it a lot of thought into the date. You know, like, he knew you're a busy single mom that you needed to be treated. And you just need to have fun.

Even if you don't like him, at least he trained to have fun night. Totally. Okay. Yeah, totally. And, like, I really liked Reggie because he was a really good listener. You know, like a lot of guys these days, they only talk about themselves. Like, they don't ask any questions. Oh.

That's not good for any. So, like, talking with Reggie was great. And, like, I learned about him and his family. And it was just really nice to sit down and connect with someone. Is he a single dad, too? I, no, he's not a single dad. Oh, he's a married dad. That's even better.

No, I know. So he knows how it works. No, no, no. He's not married, of course. And he doesn't have any kids, but he does know that I have a daughter, obviously. I'm very upfront with that. Okay. Well, that all sounds great.

at least on the surface, how did it end? I think it ended great. Like, he drove me back to my place, and I didn't invite him up, of course, but I did give him a kiss goodnight. And then I went inside, and I haven't heard from him since. So can you think of any reason why that would be? I've been going over in my head, and, like, the only thing that I can think of is, like, he's a decent looking guy.

He's personable. Like, I had a lot of fun with him. And, like, he probably has. has a lot of options. Yeah. Like, when you're on dating up, you're looking at so many people and you have a bunch of options in front of you. But you're the best option. So what's wrong with him?

He knows. You have options too. Everybody does. Yeah, I do know how that feels to get that. So. You okay, Jeff? What? To get the, you know, great guy, you know.

Why are you so sad? Lots of options available to you. Yeah. He's perfect. You know. Oh, that you're the good. Yeah. Like being, like, being.

Like, the. guy in that position with all these great options, doing all these great things, oppressing all of these women. Brooke and I thought you were getting turned down that other guy. That's what I'm joking. Well, it's just more believable the way Alexis and I... It's just funny on just bragging.

You girls are like, it's okay, Jack. Okay, well, now I don't even want to help. Just drop it and move on. All right, Brooke, you say the nice thing to end this call then. Go ahead. I'm actually really excited to call this guy. I think we can fix it. Well, he's a jerk who's not calling you back. Yeah, that's right. I don't think he's quite that decent.

We're going to find out. I would have called you back as like a good gentleman, but we'll see what his excuse is. No, that's okay. Don't make excuses for him. We'll see what he has to say when we come back and do your second date update right after this. Hold on.

Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Second date update. On this show, we love single moms. Yeah, we do. Our number one single mom is Alexis's mother Barb. She is our personal fave. But number two, at least for today, is our listener, Eve, who's been struggling to meet a good guy that's even open to the idea of going.

Maybe she should hang out with Barb. Barb's not looking for good guys. Let's be honest, Alexis. Eve met a guy named Reggie online recently. They went salsa dancing and they talked and connected. But after the date, Reggie's gone kind of AWOL, which is not cool. Alexis, what would Barb do if this happened to her? WBD.

That's the same thing. I don't know. She'd probably be out on another night out with her friends again, you know, just moving on. Oh, well, I hope that she would feel comfortable calling us for help like Eve did. Oh, you would do that from the bar. You want to do an update with Alexis's mall. If she ever needs it, but today we're stepping in to help our listener, Eve. And if nothing else, maybe get some answers from this Reggie guy. Oh, you're mad at him.

I am single moms deserve better. And Alexis, I hope your mother knows that I feel that way. Okay, I'm done matching my mom on this show for the day. saying we're always there for Barb. Yeah, we are. Barb, if you're listening, we're here for you. By the way, I love your last Instagram pig, Barb, and it's so good.

I would love a new segment. Barb's problem. Yeah. But, sorry, this brings us back to Eve. Eve, we're here for you today, okay? 100%. Thank you. I think this is going to turn out great.

I think that there's either some sort of scheduling thing and maybe he's intimidated that you're like a strong, independent woman. You know, something that could be fixed. Yeah, I'm sure it's going to be something super fun like that. Okay. Hey, that's positive. Yeah, he's intimidated by what a great woman you are.

Yeah, that could happen. Yeah. I'm with Brooke. Maybe we call him and he's like, there's no other day can get better than that day. I sure hope so. Let's call him right now and see what he has to say if he picks up. Here we go. Hey, is this Reggie?

Yes, it is. We're calling. Hello, Reggie. Quiet talker. Hi, Reggie. Hello? Sorry, there's more than one of us. Hi.

You're on a radio show right now called Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning, and we are not. too happy with you right now. Reggie, you sound like a pretty stand-up guy, Jeffrey. You don't need to come in so hard. He said hello, and you got stand-up guy from hello. He took a woman out on a beautiful date. Put some energy into it.

What's this about? The reason why some of us are not happy with you is because you went out with one of our listeners named Eve, a wonderful single mother, and afterwards you have the audacity to not call her. I don't know why my co-hosts are laughing at that idea. It's kind of rude if you ask me. Wait.

Why you're so mad? Eve called you? Yes. Emailed for help because this might be shocking to you, but she had a nice time the other night. I mean, something's weird with her. I think she's like a scammer or a liar. A scam. Okay.

I'll tell you, normally if someone stole something, they wouldn't call a radio show to reach out to that person for you. Yeah, that's why I'm kind of surprised. Okay. It sounds like you planned a great night with her. She told me it's hard for her because she's a single mom. Yeah. Right. The babysitters are expensive.

Totally. She can't afford it. So trying to be a gentleman here, I offer, you know, what if I pay for the sitter and then you can come? Oh. Good. I almost brought that up. I didn't want to put that in the air, but that's a really nice gesture. I think my husband would be okay if I was in a dating app if we could get somebody to pay for the sitter.

That's always good, though. Great, T, you're even more of a gentleman, brother. Okay. I'm kind of apologizing now for coming on so hard at you at the beginning. Oh, now you're feeling bad. I do. That's a good move. I will admit it.

Jeff has a soft spot for kids. Okay. Yeah, so the night of the date, I show up, she comes down. I've them all her to $100. Everything's okay. You know, afterwards, I drop her back off at her apartment. She goes inside. Yeah.

I'm driving down. I realize she left her doggy bag or leftover food in my car. Oh, that's a go back. Oh, okay. Come back, go to the door, the apartment, knock on the door. There was another resident there. So I told the person there, hey, so I went out with a woman, a mom who lives here in the building. Her name is Eve.

Uh-huh. Yeah. I don't know which apartment she lives in, but this is hers. Can you give it to her? Okay. That's nice. And what they say? She says, I know Eve, but she's not a mom.

What? Hmm? And I'm like, well, what do you mean? She told me she had a three-year-old daughter. I thought she had a babysitter. I paid for the babysitter. She's like, no, she has a roommate, but no kids. What? Are you sure? Wait. Wait.

Wait a second. Don't trust the stranger in the lobby, though. I mean, it's an apartment complex. There could be two Eves. It's not like it's a super common name. I mean, it had to be the same Eve because she said that she just saw her come back. Maybe she doesn't know. My neighbors don't know I have pets. Like, you know, we lie. Yeah. And she's like, you know, we don't lie about a kid, Alexis.

Maybe you do. Clearly, we need to get to the bottom of what. what's going out here. Some sort of confusion is going on. And I need to tell you, Reggie, Eve, is actually on the phone already listening to this conversation. What are you talking about?

Yeah. That's how this works. You come in so pleasant. That was a pretty big accusation. Yeah, what's going on? Okay. I am so sorry. Oh, no. Wait a second. Are you not a single

mom? I mean, that's why I didn't bring up my daughter's name because I don't have a daughter. What? Wait a second. We had all this empathy for you. Like, we had a whole discussion about how hard it was for single mom. Jeff almost attacked Reggie before the phone call.

I'm serious. I came at him so hard at the beginning of this. Why would you lie about that? Who wants to be a single mom on a dating app? Yeah, that doesn't help you, does it? Eve, explain. I guess for the money, like, I, I, I, have a roommate. We both just like, we will just say it sometimes on days, you know? Like,

it's a game we play. Just slips out. Do you have a pretend child? Only $100, sorry, charge more. Get out of here. No, but that's why I think actually $100 is perfect because I would totally fall for this. You're not going to ask for pictures of the kid. Okay. Can we stop trying to make her scam better to get her even more money? I just mean it's pretty. I'm disappointed. It's really vulnerable. Maybe don't be that for a second. This is terrible. Why would you call us if the whole thing was a lie? Because she actually liked him. Watch.

Well, yeah, I did like him. Oh, no. What's your plan to, like, go out with Reggie, like, five, ten more times until you eventually reveal, oh, by the way, I'm not actually a mother of any children. And by the way, thank you for the thousand dollars in babysitting fees that you pay for all of our dates. When do the babysitting game and stop? Messed up. Yeah, that's so messed up. Yeah.

Not like that. Like, you're ruining it for actual single moms who want to date these good guys. Like, now they're going to be, like, all skeptical and jaded and... I'm skeptical if Alexis's mom is really a mom at this point. How do you even know? We don't know. I'm pretty sure. I don't know.

Yeah, she's been asking for babysitting money for someone to watch Alexis for years. I'm trying to split it with her 50-50. That's all the whole thing is scam? Oh, my God. That sucks. I mean, there are some girls who just take the money before a date and don't actually go out with the guys, but like, I do. Okay. Well, yeah.

You're right. You're totally a good person. person then. You would at least wait until after the day to accept the money. A real mom would say if other girls jumped off a bridge, would you jump off one, too? Fair. I mean, the whole point of this call. Was to reach out to Reggie to see if he wanted to go out with you one more time. But first, I think Reggie probably needs an apology from you, Eve, and probably his money back. Yeah. Do you want to say anything to Reggie? I do. Reggie, I'm really sorry. I don't have the money. right now, but I, I will repay you eventually. Come on. After she goes on a date

with another guy who pays $100. Before she asks us for the gift card. I wish you guys wouldn't be so harsh on me. Like, I really am trying here. I wish you would have told us the truth. Like, why did you scam us too, man? I mean, I didn't know I was going to be bust on the radio. So you're

only sad and upset when you get caught. It's like when you get a cheater and it's like, well, I was going to tell you. Yeah. So Reggie, I mean, she's apologized and offered to at least pay the money back when she gets it. Do you have anything you want to say to her? Yeah, I'm putting her on blast. I'm putting this all over my Instagram.

I got stream shots of your photo. Mine. Not necessarily. I want other people to know not to get scammed by you. I don't know. That feelsicky, too. So are you saying, Reggie, that you are open to dating her? Or are you done?

Because remember, we will pay for that. next date and the babysitter fee too. Ooh. Wait, is it cost zero dollars if you don't actually have a kid? Yeah, that's exactly what we'll do. So we always offer to send you guys out. I'll watch your pretend, baby. Reggie?

Yeah, no thanks. Ah, darn. Man, God, you could have made a lot of money as a couple, you know? You never knew how the scam would work out when you're married. Yeah, you could have had like three more pretend kids. Got 400 bucks for it. Eve, I mean, has this taught you a lesson? Are you going to change your ways going forward?

Maybe. I don't know. I have to talk to my roommate. I don't know. The scam isn't as tight as we thought. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. IHart Radio is throwing it back. 20s, the decade.

Thankfully, this guy randomly figured it out by trying to bring his date her leftovers and was outed for that. And that was just the universe.

That wasn't anyone's fault. Maybe that's why all those other radio shows ask the little kids to come on and talk for their mommy. Is your kid in the background? Come say hi.
