Oh, God, Doc, everybody, high for cover. No coincidence that we have double second dates today. Oh, wait on that. That is why. That energy in the air. That's right. I'm a Gemini, so be scared. All right, let's get to it.

We got your second date update classics today. Thank you so much for being here and subscribing. What are you got on comments? Well, I'm going to assume this happened because of Gemini season also. But Anna commented, guys, I was in Gatlinburg last week, Tennessee, and was blaring the podcast and traffic in the girl in the car next to me shouted, Brooke and Jeffrey Fam Unite. Oh, wow. Oh, my God, I love that. And I bet she said it with a cute accent, too.

Oh, yeah. Yeah, sorry, I couldn't do that on here. I'm not going to offend everyone that way. Oh, my God, this is for you, okay? Back-to-back classics, start right now. It's important to remember that just because your buddies think your old stories are funny doesn't mean your dates will agree. Smart lesson.

And one of our listeners says he definitely regrets what he told the woman he was out with recently. He thought it was just going to be a fun, lighthearted tale from his past. But he may have come off looking like a free-loading criminal. Although let's remember bad boys are sexy. Okay. But free loading bad boys. Yeah. So you're going to hear it in your second date update. That's coming up next.

Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Second date update. You ask anybody and you'll get a lot of different responses for what's the best time of day for a date. Oh, yeah. Because I mean, you have the traditional seven o'clock dinner plans, people. I was literally going to say 7 p.m. But then you also have the hikers and bikers who are like, ooh, Five in the morning.

Let's wake up early and go for a ride together while the sun rises on my tandem two-person speed bike. Wait, what? But I got to get up at 2 a.m. first to work out before our bike right at 5. Yeah. And our listener, Rez, he might fall somewhere in the middle of those based on what he chose to do for his first date the other day. So let's talk to him about it. Res, welcome to the show. Hey, you guys.

Thanks for having me. How you doing? Oh, we're pretty good. It's a good time of day to do this show. What time of day do you like to go on your dates, Rez? I'm a gentleman, so I like to go at whatever time is convenient for my date. Hey, that's an answer. I was like, oh, what time is?

Whatever the girl wants, she's in charge. Very smart. Okay, so you ask them when would be best. Yeah, exactly. So tell us about this woman that you met recently. What's her name and what time did she want to go out? So this woman's name is Katrina. And she said she was free on a Sunday.

Huh. Okay. Left me with that. And I was like, well, like, Sunday is brunch day. Yeah. It is a chill day. I think brunch is a great date. Yeah, exactly.

So we did like a Sunday brunch buffet that I really love that I've been to before. And so we met at the place and we hit it off like immediately. Nice. And I was like on my best behavior. You know, I wanted to be a total gentleman. and like open the door, pulled her chair out. Like, I really, really was, like, into this girl. You know, a lot of people like to get rowdy and go wild at brunch,

so it's good that you reeled it in and held yourself in check. Don't push her into the door. Open it for her. Don't push her into it. Let her go first for the omelet section. She gets to do her choice. That's really nice of it. That's cute.

I mean, were you able to connect? Yeah, for sure. I mean, I know Brooke wants to know about your connection and if there was like a vibe going on. That's that kind of what we're doing? I'm more curious about what the selection was like at that buffet. So you want to know if there's crab legs or not? No, I do.

I'm glad you're asking. I almost asked if it was like an oyster, like a seafood buffet. Although I do love when they have a crape guy. When they have a crape guy. Oh, my gosh. Because you said it's a breakfast buffet. So does that mean it's all serve yourself or is there a menu that you can order off of? Yeah.

Like I need a new spot to hit up. Well, I mean, this is my secret spot. I'm not telling anyone. Oh, you're going to gatekeep it. Yeah, I'm gatekeeping. Okay. Okay. There was a carving station, which was sick.

Nice. I was putting down the bacon, but she was just into, like, a ton of different fruit. Oh. Ew. Hey, fruits good. It's usually just one. It's usually just, like, one fruit salad. Yeah.

It's like the worst part of the buffet. Oh. Oh, no. Well, there's a kiwi there usually. I don't take kiwis unless it's out of I'm down on with the kids. The real fancy ones have the smoothie stations. Oh, I never been to that.

Like I said before, like, I won't tell you where this place is, but this place is legit. It has absolutely everything, all the fruits. All the fruits. All the fruits. The secret fruit palace. Okay. You won't ask questions. So, being the gentleman that I am, like, every time I was either going or coming back,

I would ask her, like, is there anything that I can get you? Okay. Running up, getting her a bagel. Getting her some pineapple. When you describe your trips to the buffet, it sounds like you two did some damage at this place. Yeah, which is good, right? I'm imagining him just being the server to her, honestly, at this point. Well, get your money's worth.

But did anything, like, awkward or weird happen? Well, like, I decided to reveal to her this, like, age-old brunch hack that me and my friends have or had. What is it? A hack. A brunch hack. You know how hotels do continental breakfast for the guests? Yeah. Yeah.

So, like, if you just walk into this hotel and you just walk up to the buffet, sit down, get your food, sit down, like you know what you're doing, like you belong there. You can just eat it and leave. I've heard of it. That's very risky, though, because they can ask you if you have a room. You make your show the little coupons, usually, like, the little people or things to give you. That's true. You didn't take her to a hotel, did you? No, no, I just told her that hack.

Oh, good. That hack, that's actually just an illegal. activity. He's in college. Showing up and stealing. I mean, the eggs aren't real anyway. And how old has that Waffle Batter been sitting there? Somebody's got to eat it, Jeff.

I guess. How did Katrina react to hearing your hack? I mean, like, immediately, she just had this look on her face, like, I don't know, like my face was melting off. It was not good. She's a better person than us. That's funny. You would think she'd laugh and talk about, like, how she got free stuff.

in college or something, you know. Unless he did it last week and she probably assumed that you weren't going to pay for brunch this time. Or she's like, wait, have you paid for this meal tonight yet? Yeah. Oh, yeah. I had the back pedal and be like, I only did this when I was 17. Like, I'm going to tip like 30% now.

Yeah. So did the whole energy shift after that combo? Yeah, we wrapped up, hugs, felt really weird. And then we haven't spoken in like a whole week. Ooh. Yikes. Have you tried? Yeah, I reached out. I texted her the next day. Because I was kind of hoping she would text me later that day,

being like I had such a good time or something, and she didn't. Oh, man. I think you did this to yourself. You taught her how to get free food, and she doesn't need you anymore. Oh, that could be it. She's busy. Yeah. You give a person to fish or teach him to fish. I see.

Well, we'll find out when we call her and see if she actually stole your brunch hack and is using it for evil when we do your... second date update right after this. Thank you guys. Hold on. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Second date update. If you're just joining us for the second date update, we've been talking to Rez about his

brunch date at a super secret brunch location that he refuses to disclose on the radio. It's very strange how protective he is of this place. He's gamekeeping. He is, but that's where he took a woman named Katrina recently, and it was going extremely well until he made the mistake of speaking. Specifically, speaking about his brunch hack, where you can get free continental breakfast from hotels if you just walk in and act like you're staying there.

Yeah. I mean, that's stealing it, but yeah. Stealing things doesn't cost anything. So that can be considered a hack. If you look at it in a different way. It was an idea. It did change the vibe for the rest of their date, though, because Katrina did not have the best reaction.

He's hoping we can get things back on track. And in an unrelated note, the CEO of Best Western called in and wants to speak to you after the segment is over. Okay, Rez? I gave them your phone numbers. You can chat later. I mean, I've been to nothing, though. You admit to nothing? You already admitted to it, my name.

We have recorded evidence of it. I'm going to tell you, you should ask for a lawyer if you ever get called in. Don't do your own talking. You know, I honestly, I regret talking about it to you guys. And I regret talking about it on my day. This is ruining my life. Yes. Wow.

That seems dramatic. The good news is we don't know if that was the cause. Sure. She could have some other reason to not be calling you back, but let's dial her number right now. We'll figure out what she has to say. All right. Hopefully she picks up, and this is a good time for you to not say anything. Okay?

You're good at that, though. Noted. All right, here we go. I'm going to dial it right now. Hey, is this Katrina? Yes. Hey Katrina, you're on a radio show right now. It's called Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.

Hey, Katrina. Hi, good morning. Hi. Hi. Welcome to the show. I like Jeff branched out there for a second. Yeah. That was cool, bro.

Freestyle. I know. I really opened up. Sorry, I'm on a radio show. Not a good one either. Yeah. It's called Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning, and this is a segment that we do. You might be familiar with it.

It's called a second date update. Um, I don't know. Is this like a prank? No. No. We do those two. Yeah. I was sorry, jinx. But this one is one where we're trying to help one of our listeners get back in touch with you after you went on a date with him.

A guy named Rez. Oh, okay. Yeah. Look, I'm sorry. There's just no way that I can go out with him again. But thank you guys for calling. No, no, wait, wait, wait. Hold on.

That's okay for you to say that. But could you maybe give us a little bit more information on why? because Rez is really confused. He told us about your brunch date, but he's clueless for the reason you might be blowing him off. And you sound real strong in that conviction there that you don't want to see him again. I don't know.

I mean, I should say he was a really nice guy. He was very polite. He was like offering to get me food. We went to this brunch buffet. Why wouldn't you want that? Why didn't you want to date that? You don't like nice guys? No, I like nice guys.

He's just missing something. missing. Like a tooth? Did something happen at the buffet that turned you off? I mean, yeah. It was honestly, it was so weird. Like I've never experienced anything like this before. It was so strange.

What? Uh-oh. Like I said, he was really nice. He's like offering to go get me food right from the buffet, which was like very gentlemanly of him. Right. I was like, sure, okay, I'll have like some cantaloupe. And then I'd see him walking around.

and he finally comes back a few minutes later, and he's like, oh, they don't have it. Okay. But I could see it from where we were sitting. Like, I could see there was cantaloupe sitting on, like, one of the buffet things. Ooh, maybe he's one of those guys that gets cantalope and honeydew mixed up. I was going to say, why would he lie? You know, Brooke, maybe he's like...

Some men don't know their melons. Okay. I mean, I was like maybe he missed it, right? Maybe he just didn't see it. Like, there's a lot of food there, so I pointed to where it was. And I was like, oh, I think I see it. it right over there. So he gets up, he walks over there, and I see him, like, circling the table, and he's

not grabbing the cantaloupe. And then he brings me back a bowl of, like, berries. And he was like, they didn't have it. So I just got you this. I hope that's okay. What? So did you just get up and go get it finally? Well, no, because I realize I don't think this guy knows what canalope is.

Like, how do you not know what a cantalope is? I truly, I was so shocked in that moment. Wow. So just to be clear, the big red flag in your mind was that this is a man who does not understand what type of fruit cantaloupe is. Like, that's a big turn off to you. Canaloupe shaming him? Like, you're a 30-year-old man and you've never heard of cantalop. What else has he not heard of?

We're going to go on a date and he's going to be like, oh, I can't read. I can't read. You have no cantaloupe to suddenly the poor man can't read? He's like, that is a wild jump to make. Those are basic things, though. Like, if it's one basic thing he doesn't comprehend, then what any other basic thing is going to show up? Well, let's ask him what other basic things he doesn't know and comprehend about

because Rez is on the other line of this phone call right now listening, waiting to talk to you. What are you talking about? He is not. He actually is. That's how this segment works. He could read and write enough to email us, so that's a good sign. Well, you can get chat GPT to do a lot of that stuff for you on that. So let's not give me too much credit.

Res, are you there? Oh, I'm here. Oh, wow. Are you hearing what Katrina's saying about you? I'm being fruit-shamed? Yeah. With good reason, some would argue, but yeah. Hey, I'm sorry.

I didn't know you were on the phone. They didn't tell me. They asked me the questions. I just said the truth. Like, you can't deny it. I obviously would have not said it like that had I known you were listening. I'm sorry. Well, I know now.

I Googled it. Oh. Yeah. Oh, you have to see. We love a man who learns. Yeah, there you go. He took your criticism. He's not offended.

That's pretty good. Yeah, Katrina, this must feel like growth, right? You've encouraged this. I mean, I'm glad he learned. I'm glad that I was able to, like, help him expand his knowledge, like, help the less fortunate in terms of what they know about fruit. Yeah. It doesn't change how I feel.

The less fortunate? The less fortunate? That is so rude. The fruit illiterate out there. It's a real problem. Oh, my. feel like I'm Oliver Twist over here. Like I'm low class or something.

I don't know what a cantaloupe is. Did you hear that literary reference? Again, proof the man reads. He did say twist weird though, Brooke. This is so weird. Like, this is not a class thing. He just didn't know what a cantaloupe is.

He knows now. You guys can go out again. Katrina, I mean, hear me out. In the moment, I did not know what a cantaloupe was. And, you know, like, apparently I should know this. And now I do. Everyone on the show knows. I know, you know, we're all on the same page.

I'm adaptable. I can learn. Look at that. Wow. That's hard nowadays. I was just never around canalove, but like that doesn't seem like enough of a reason not to like me. I mean, I appreciate you saying that. And I don't mean to fruit shame you.

It's just a thing that I immediately felt like a yuck about you not knowing that basic thing. And I appreciate you taking the time to, like, do the research. I wish you would have gone to the bathroom and Googled it instead of like running around and like, you know what I mean? You know what I mean? Well, Desperate Times call for desperate measures sometimes. But Katrina, I mean, in a lot of relationships, a big part of it is doing new things and exploring new things together. That could be your journey with Rez. It's educating him through all of the different types of fruits that exist in the world.

Res may know a lot of stuff that you don't know yet too, you know, on the flip. Oh, vegetables. Nobody needs to know that. I'm just saying you learn new interests and new stuff through people that you date. Are you willing to keep an open mind and give Rez one more chance

and we would pay for it if you'd go out with him another time? I just think it's weird. Like it's his brunch place. He brought me there. They have a lot of cantaloupe there. Like, I feel like he should have known it. We can't get over this.

If he doesn't remember one word in the future. I know, it's like such a small hill to climb. you know, to jump over this moment. Everybody is different, Brooke. It's not your life that we're living here. Katrina has standards, and one of the standards is cantaloupe, or at least knowing what a canelope is. Oh, I guess we all have different boundaries.

So, Katrina, I'm assuming that it's a no from you. That's kind of what I'm hearing. Yeah, I just, I don't think I can get past it. Okay. What if he can name 10 fruits right now? Hey, apple, pear, pineapple, nectarine. I was kidding. Guava.

Guava. Hey, that's a fancy one. There's no way he's picking guava out of a table. There's no way he knows what it looks like. He just Googled fruits right now and he's just looking it up. It's alphabetical word for apple, banana, cherry. Nice try, Rhett. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.

Huge news. We created our own podcast called, Hey, Jonas. We invented a podcast? Well, we didn't invent it. We just contributed to... We're the first people to do podcasts. Pretty, yeah, pretty wide range of podcasts throughout there. But this one's extra special.

So how did we actually come up with a name, Hey Jonas, guys? I honestly don't remember. I think it was on a call about what we should call it. Well, we were thinking I'm originally calling it one of the early names of our band before Jonas Brothers. This is how you guys remember it going down? Yes. I have a very different memory of this.

We were talking about a thing. a bit for the podcast where people could call in and say, hey Jonas. And then I wrote down on my little notepad, Hey Jonas, and offered it up as a potential title for the podcast. But thanks for remembering that, guys. Listen to Hey Jonas on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. Just listen. We don't care where you hear it. Brooke, this might surprise you, but I kind of agree with you on this whole cantaloupe situation. Oh, you've come to my side?

Well, I agree it's a small problem that she should probably get a. over. Right? Sure. But it's more than just he doesn't know the name of one fruit. What is it then? Like, this is just a small slice of a larger picture that Katrina is recognizing where she's thinking, God, if he doesn't know something as basic as this, how is he going to

fit into the rest of my life? Like with my upscale friends and my melon-loving parents will they accept him? Like, what else am I getting myself into? That's where her mind was at. What's going to happen in someone hands are a cum quad? She has no idea what to do. I don't even know what a cumquot looks like. Yeah.

So it's like she's looking down the road of like other problems that are going to be arising if he doesn't know this. Making problems. The real problem is how much fruit she's eating at breakfast instead of pancakes and bacon. Oh, that's the red flag. That's not bad. She must spend a lot of time in the bathroom. Yeah. I'm with you on there.

Should have eaten more meats. But still, you got to respect people for where their line is drawn. That's where she draws the line. Okay. Canelope. I guess. It's a very, very short line. Well, plus you have to weigh in the embarrassment, too, of telling her friends she decided to go out with Mel and Boy again.

That's hard to come back from. But hopefully we can help you come back. If you're struggling to get a second date, email the show. We'll call that person who's not calling you back and go check out all of our second day podcasts wherever you get yours at Brook and Jeffrey. Brook and Jeffrey in the morning. Maybe you've been there before where you go out with someone. And after the date, you realize, man, I don't know if I'm good enough for them. Oh, that's sad, Jeffrey.

I never felt that way. Like maybe she's used to dining on frog legs all grottin, and you're used to senior frogs graw and jaw tequila Tuesdays. Now Alexis is per guy. It's all the guy named grottin. You haven't? One of our listeners is definitely looking for all the help he can get to lock down another hangout with a very classy woman that he met online.

I'm not sure if we're the right group of people to help with this. Excuse me. Very classy. Okay. This isn't the senior fogs, Brooke. Shut, shut. It's like one of us is a corn cop pipe and Brooke just has a cornucon. Yeah, well, we're going to try our best in your second date update.

Okay. We're going to put on an ascot for this one. Mm, regal. Just do it normal style right after this. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning, second date update. One of the keys to successfully dating is just to actually give a crap and try. That's a big key, I feel like that's too much work.

The thing is, don't try too hard, because that comes off desperate. You can't try too little either, though, because then you seem like a jerk, which just doesn't care. Try just right amount. Goldilocks it and try medium till it's just right.

And one of our listeners, William, emailed the show saying he's worried he may have tried too hard on his date. William, you didn't channel your inner Goldilocks for this? I tried. I might have tried too hard. You didn't wake up in a strange house of three bears? Failure. If you're not down in porridge, you ain't doing it right, man.

Well, we can't undo anything that happened, but why don't you tell us about it a little bit? What's the name of the woman that you went out with? Her name is Stacy. Okay. So where did you meet her? I met her online. Okay. And, you know, at first I was actually pretty intimidated just by her profile pictures.

Oh, because she's, like, really attractive to you? you? Well, that for sure, but also she seems to have kind of an extravagant, sophisticated, cultured life more so than myself, I'll say. Okay. What did she put in her pictures to like depict that? There's like pictures of her on a sailboat with what looks to be her very well-dressed family, maybe in Greece somewhere. Oh my gosh. She was, you know, at soccer games in Europe. Oh. That's a match, sir. Yeah, I'm good point, bro. Wouldn't expect you to be fancy enough to know that.

That's amazing. So, yeah, it was really intimidating, which I actually told her that in the initial messaging. Oh. You did? Yeah, I mean, I'm pretty honest, maybe to default. Okay. Well, she obviously liked it because she responded. Alexis, if a guy writes to you, I'm intimidated by you.

I'm like, yeah, I don't know. Is that not a strong move? No, not really. I mean, a football game in Europe doesn't cost that much. It's like, don't be that intimidated. Wow, okay. I'm just saying. They're not expensive.

They're not. I mean, yeah. I'm just saying. I take it bad. Wow. But the bottom line is she responded and. Yeah, she responded all right. She said,

ha ha, you should be. Oh, she liked it. It's my type of woman. So what did you do for a date? I made dinner reservations. Okay. Nice little spot. I got dressed up, even borrowed a nice shirt from my roommate.

Oh, the good shirt that everyone's. Do dudes normally do that? Like share fancy clothes? When you have a roommate life, I used to have a blazer and we had like a community blazer. Oh, you did. Who needs it tonight? Yeah. It's like a large.

I mean, yeah. It's like the little black dress for a vet. Exactly. All you got to do is a button up. Do that pay off for you? I mean, I was feeling good. So that's helpful, I think. And she told me I looked nice.

And she looked incredible. Did you tell her that was scary too, how good she looked? Yeah. I mean, I reiterated how intimidated I was. I'm imagining you, like, cowering at everything. Just wincy and every time she lifts up her fork to eat. You're too beautiful. We're playing it up for you, man.

I'm sure you were fine. I think so. I mean, she was really nice for the most part. I mean, I brought her. I saw that she loves chocolate also on her profile, so I thought I'd bring her a gift and I brought her almond roca. Oh, that's cute. Okay.

Ew. Holy shunner. Sorry. Are we all going to act like that was the best option? Kind of a grandparents' chocolate, but, you know. But good for you. I always see it at this store, and it looks nice. It has like gold foil.

I thought it looked kind of fancy. But she said it's not really chocolate, which I never had really eaten her myself. It's kind of toffee. It is a lot of to coffee. Yeah, that's true. Harsh to say when someone's giving you a gift. That's not actually chocolate. Take us to the highlights of the date.

What were the good moments? Well, during dinner, I wanted to get to know, I had, I was so curious, you know, from her profile and I kept asking her a lot of questions. And I might have kind of asked too many questions. Is that possible? I don't, maybe if it starts to feel like somebody's giving you the third degree interrogating you, which wasn't really my attention. But I mean, if there's not like a real natural flow to it, I guess. You don't want the date to come off sounding like a job interview. Yeah. So tell me here. Where do you see yourself five to ten years from you? Can you think of one question that went too far? I asked her if she's ever been engaged before. Oh. What?

I thought you're talking about... Common first date question. Totally normal. Okay. And what was her response? Well, because we talked a little bit about house relationships. And she had... I was dating a guy in Spain for a long time.

And that's how it came up because she said it was really serious. Oh, man. It's kind of intense. I was not trying to pry, though. Is you not trying to try? I'm sure it was fine. Let's go to the end of the day. What happened at the end?

Well, we had the almond roca for dessert, which was nice at the restaurant. You just opened up the package right there? Yeah, well, because they asked if we wanted any of dessert. She said she wasn't that hungry, but I said, oh, I brought this for you, and that's when I... Oh, presented. She said her wits with the roca, yeah. That's when she turned up her nose and said it's not really chocolate. She did say that, but then we did actually enjoy it together, and I hope she thought it was funny that I tried, even though I failed that, even bringing chocolate.

Some pity roca. Yeah. All right. All right. Well, I'm going to give it a B plus so far. Are you? That's my grade. Maybe like a C.

I'm grading it on a curve. Have you heard from her? Well, I don't really heard from her, but it ended okay. Like, we hugged. We said goodbye. Yeah, that's what Brooke does with her children, though. So we can't really judge by that. And also gives them all in Roca.

They may complain about every food item I give them. The good news is there's a lot of room to improve from here. We're going to try and do that when we come back and do your second date update right after this. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Second date update. If you're just joining us, we're on the phone with William, who went out recently with a world traveler named Stacy. Yeah.

Stacey has studied in the universities of Europe. She's dated the men of Spain and cheered for the football clubs of Lichtenberg, where instead of cheering hooray, there they cheer in reverse. Oh, really? Jose, can you say hooray backwards? Yeah! That's right. It's classy because it's European.

Yeah. Hurroo. Well, hopefully we'll all be saying yaru at the end of the second date. when we get Stacey and William to meet up again. I like it. But obviously, she is clearly a world traveler. He was intimidated by that, which led me to the question. William, why would she want to go out with you in the first place?

Oh, gosh. Jeffers, they came off so hard. He said himself that she's so worldly, she's so traveled. What would be the appeal for her? Well, I'm a nice guy, and I'm open to going on more traveling ventures. I mean, I've traveled a little bit myself. Oh, you've traveled the world? Come on, Jeffrey.

Not everybody can afford that, but I think what it would be appealing is he seems like a really curious guy, right? Like, that's who someone who likes to travel wants to be with. There's websites for curious men. And I think that's a totally different issue, bro. He's like... I think you sound totally fine, by the way, William. He's honestly interested in her adventures.

He asked a ton of questions. Yeah. Have you traveled at all before? Are you not travel? What's your travel experience? No, yeah. I mean, I've been out of the country. I've gone to Cabo twice.

Oh. Okay. Wow. Very sophisticated. I'm driven at Scottsdale before. Scottstale. Wow. Not just Phoenix.

All parking places. Oh, the Paris of Arizona. Okay. But there's something to work with here. It's not quite, you know, the Vienna Opera House, but it's close. So. Yeah. Plus, the positive is she could show him all these places, Jeffrey.

Right. We just have to convince her of that. And he can show her the golf course at Scott's day. Yeah. Let's just get her on the phone. I'm excited to talk to this worldly lady. Let's get her on the phone right now. Here we go.

You ready? She speaks English, Jeff. Have we asked this? Yeah. She does speak English, right? Well, yeah. I think she speaks a couple languages, actually. But English is one of them.

On your date. Otherwise, this call's going to go really, really badly. All right. I'm going to try English on her. See how it goes. Here, I'm dialing the number right now. Hello? Bonjour.

Is this Stacy? Oh. We are looking to be all Stacy. Hello? I'm a pair Brooke. I'm so sorry for this. Hey, at least I use French. I won't try.

Hello. Sorry. Hey, Stacey, I'm hoping this is a radio show called Broken Jeffrey in the morning. Can I help you? Yeah, we need a lot of help. We really do. But mostly we're looking for help for one of our listeners named William because he's a guy who, rumor has it you went on a date with recently.

What is this about a date? Yeah, it's a segment we do called Second. date update where our listeners go out with someone and if they're not hearing back or if they feel like they're getting ghosted they can email us and we'll try and reach out to that person for them. It's a real North American continent type thing.

Yeah. Sorry for being weird about all the North America stuff. It's just we heard that you're very well traveled. Yes, I am well traveled. Who is the guy or which date was this? I've been on a couple recently. It was Willie. Oh, yeah, William. Oh, William, yes.

Yes. You guys went and got dinner together the other night? Yes, we went out to dinner. Okay. Did you enjoy it? I don't know what you want from me here. It was a nice time. I guess is what we want is honesty.

Yeah, we're trying to help out William a little bit because he doesn't understand why there hasn't been a second meetup. He really liked you a lot and thought that maybe they saw some potential between you two. I just, honestly, he just wasn't cultured enough.

after me and I don't know he lacked manners. Oh. Lacked manners. Hold on. Are we nitpicking? Did he not have his fork on the right area of the plate? No, he just, he didn't have, he doesn't have good etiquette. Okay. Can you, example?

Yeah. An example is he kind of yelled out when he had to go to the bathroom, you know? We're in this really nice restaurant. Wait, what? I got to pay. Pottie, potty time. He announced it to like the whole room, or what do you mean? Yes, he just, he got up and he says, I'm going to the bathroom. And it was like, it was a big

announcement. Oh, yeah. Wait, what? That's bad etiquette. Well, Brooke, do you do that? Excuse me. I think he was just trying to tell her where he was going so that you didn't think he was ditching you or something. Well, he could have just said, excuse me for a minute. Exactly. I'll be right back. Harder me. I'll be right back. You have a lot higher standards than I I do. I know. I think that's a little bit picky, at least for us. Is that all that he did? Is that all that he No, we're at a very nice steakhouse, and he waved down the waiter to get more bread. Okay. Is that rude?

What is that? I love that bread. I know. If the bread's good, you want more. Well, it would just seem a little low class to me. What? Waited until they came to refill, you know, my wine. I guess.

A good server at a nice restaurant. It's going to check on you all the time, so you expect them to be around every five minutes. I guess if I remember back to my private school, you are. are supposed to wait for the waiter to come to the table. You're not supposed to shout across the restaurant. Why they ask, hey, can I get anybody anything? Nobody lives by these rules anymore. They're like, they're old.

Well, that's okay to Fuddruckers, Brooke, but it's not okay when you go to an actual respected place. He took her to a beautiful steak dinner, right? He's the one that picked it. He's the one that took you there. Yes, the restaurant was great. It's just, I mean, there's more stuff. He was just so loud.

And I was whispering because there's other people around. and it was just really inappropriate for such a nice place. I'm sorry, guys. Excuse me. Excuse me. I'm sorry. This is William. We were at an outback steakhouse.

What? Wait, what? It's not like it wasn't a Michelin Star type of restaurant. I mean. Oh, sorry. Hold on. Hold on, hold on, William. I need to let Stacy know that William has been waiting on the other line listening to this whole conversation.

He's wanting to talk to you all. obviously. It was an outback? Yes, it was an outback steakhouse. It was the first time I've ever been. It was a very lovely Australian steakhouse.

It was lovely. So hold on. This is kind of funny. You're so worldly that you've never been to an outback, which is not worldly. What do you mean? Stacey, you think that an outback steakhouse is a very like fine dining

establishment? I'm sorry. It's a big compliment for any outback people listening. It's not that it was like the best steakhouse I've ever been, but it was just. It's cute. It felt authentic. Wait, wait, wait.

Did you look around at the other guest? You can wave down all the free bread you want there. Yeah, totally. I have traveled a lot, and not all restaurants are five-star, you know, Michelin restaurants, but they're beautiful and there's culture. So I thought that that was just an authentic, you know, thing. You were giving it the respect. It doesn't really deserve.

There's definitely culture at Outback, but it's not, like, high society culture. Yeah. That's weird. You know, honestly, I'm just happy he didn't take me to a chain restaurant. Chain restaurant. Oh. That would be bad. You know, I wouldn't recommend Googling out back stag house.

That would be awful. You should try Applebee's. It's this little quaint place. Oh, yeah. Great Long Island ice cheese. I heard of the bar and grill. You would maybe a TG on Friday. I don't want to give you too many ideas.

Honestly, I don't even know what you guys are talking about. Oh, okay. Well, good. You know what? Don't worry about any of that. We should be worried about is William, who had a great time with you the other night, restaurant and etiquette aside. And what he really wants is just to see you one more time and give it another chance. Yeah, and you know what?

If you do agree to go on a date with me on a second day night, I really do hope you do. I will take you to a really nice place, and I will show you that I have proper etiquette. I'm a classy guy. I know how to behave depending on where I'm at. Okay. Wow. I want you to give me a chance to you. show that to you. That was a gentleman

response if I have ever heard one. That's well crafted, very thoughtful and all that's left now is Stacey, a yes or no if you want to go out with him one more time, we'll pay for it. And tell us if you're curtseying while you're doing it, please. You know what? I

don't do charity. I'm okay. Oh. Oh. What? You don't do charity? You also hate charity. You like that. Good manners and terrible. You really are worldly, aren't you? I do charity. I don't take charity as but I... Oh, okay.

Will, man, I am sorry, dude. Yeah, yeah, you can't win them all. I guess I'll give it another crack out there. Wave your hands around and ask for help again. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.

Oh my God. It just occurred to me. I totally forgot to bring up the online. Holman Rokas. Oh, yeah. That sounds European and fancy. It's a classy dessert. It's not from Europe, but it is classy.

He should get points for bringing a classy sounding dessert to out back. Okay, classy sounding, I like. My husband used to send those two his grandma in Jamaica, and she called them the candy with the breadcrumbs. I don't know. I don't know. I think if you pull some gold foil-wrapped candy out of your pocket after dinner, I don't care if it's half-melting. That is class. It doesn't really melt because it's so hard.

I totally forgot to mention it, though. I'm losing my touch. Do you think that's what went wrong? It could have been at least some bonus points in his corner for having a little bit of extra, you know, juge. I don't think so. I think, dude, she's a little confused. I mean, she thought the outback was fancy. Well, we didn't get it done this time, but we promised to do better next time.
