Yeah, well, this woman had someone set her up. Unexpected wing woman. Yeah. That's going to be your tease right now. We're going to get it just a second, but first comments. Yeah, Yitzie said, hi guys, I'm 16 from Israel. I love your podcast. They make me laugh when I have a bad day.

Not only that, but when I watch a sports game, I turn the volume off and listen to your podcast while watching the game. What? I don't get it. Goal, strike. Basket. I don't know what they say in that.

At least you're a game. Yeah, can't you tell Alexis's next career is going to be a sports commentator? There you go. All right. Well, thank you so much for listening. We love that you're here. Please subscribe.

It's Brooke and Jeffrey, and here's your brand new second date. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Second Date update. Dating apps have been the most preferred method nowadays for how people meet, but maybe this is the new thing. Oh. Get your children to do the work for you. I mean, I can see this because I have made so many, like, truly amazing friends because of my kids. Okay.

We're talking about romantic hookups here, Brooke. But I'm just saying that these little snot-nosed tiny humans are great vectors of connecting adults. Brooke may get a second husband. Yeah. Good for you. We're all excited about that. And I don't know exactly how it happened with our listener, but according to their email, that's how she got matched up with a man. Oh, hey. You got your third grader to do some matchmaking for you? Let's figure it out. Her name's Coco. Coco, welcome to the show. Hello, hello. Hi, Coco. This whole thing sounds a little bit unusual, unconventional, involving your children in your courtship. I'm very curious how it happens. So can we ask you about that before we get? get to the date? Yes, yes, yes. So, I mean, I'm a single mom. I'm a mother to like a seven-year-old daughter, and she keeps annoying me with wanting a sister. Oh, cute. Okay. Well, why don't you

just go to the sister store and go buy one? She could have just wanted a dog instead, but I don't know. Anyway, but this little daughter of mine decided that she was going to write my number on multiple sheets of paper and handed out to her friends so they can give it to their dads. Oh. Wait, she was actually playing matchmaker? What a little genius. She absolutely was. She's really done on having a sister.

Oh, my God. Hey, take initiative. She's a smart cookie. What to go get her. Wow. Did she even know that she was doing this? No, not a clue. Oh.

And the thing is that it's so innocent. Like, I mean, it's true. you didn't know, like even if you get embarrassed, who cares? Everybody thinks a seven-year-old doing this is adorable. And it's actually brilliant because even if you did meet somebody, if you don't like them, you can say, oh my God, she's doing this on her own. I'm so embarrassed.

It's easy rejection. It's way better than Brooke writing her own phone number in the men's restroom at the school. That's just classes. She doesn't even put her name and it says, hey, boys. You guys are so stupid. But, okay, so your daughter's handing out your phone number to

her friends saying to give it to their dads if they're single. Kind of like handing them out like baseball cards or something like that. Wow. I am dead. Okay. So wait, how many calls did you get about this? Oh, uh, zero.

Zero. Oh, not a lot of single dads? Yeah, no. They probably thought it was weird that my number would just be passed around. So they threw it away, you know, they put in their pocket. They forgot it was there. So how does this turn into meeting someone then? So a few days later,

She's like, guess what, mom, we're going to the dog park. Huh? You don't have a dog, though. You already told us that. Yes, I don't have a dog. But she told me that her friend was going to be there with her dad and that she wanted for us to meet them. And it was more of a play date situation. And, you know, this man had no idea that this was happening.

But I do meet him. And my daughter jumps out of the car. She runs to her friend and I meet her dad. And her dad's name is Corey. Okay. Wait, what were your thoughts on Corey? First look. And?

He looks like a typical dad. You know, but he's funny. Average dad. Is that a compliment? I can't tell. Do you think the average dad at schools are hot, Brooke? There you go. That's what he looked like.

Did you look at your daughter and explain to her you want better? Okay. So tell us about, did you interact with Corey? Like, how does that go? Yeah. So he tries to make conversations. and then asked me which one is my dog. Oh, no.

And that's when I panicked. What did you say? What did you say? I said it was a black one in the corner. Why did you lie? She said she panicked. I panicked. Oh, no.

It was like in the moment. It was such an easy truth, though. Like, oh my God, my daughter knew your daughter was going to be here and they wanted to play. Oh, that's good, Brooke. I wish I would have come up with something like that. But in the moment, I didn't think of it. You know, the black one over there.

Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. Oh, that could have gone smooth. Brooke was right with her. Example, I mean. Well, I mean, at least you have a dog. Well, then, like, 30 seconds later, some lady puts a leash on that dog.

Oh, no. They're not there alone. That's my dog walker I hired. Yeah. Brooke, you are good at this. Take it to my car. It gets worse because then he's like, hey, someone's trying to steal your dog. No.

I didn't think of that. That's what the hell's going on if someone's walking away with your pet. Like, I didn't need that one. This is so funny. Then what do you say? I said it was my nanny. Okay, so now you have a dog that doesn't exist and a nanny that isn't yours. That doesn't exist.

Does it ever get good? Yeah. So I did ask him, I was like, hey, if you want to hang out some time, here's my number, which I'm sure he probably already had. Thanks to my daughter. Okay. And now it's just been eight days and I've heard nothing from him. And you guys can't see me, but I consider him.

myself to be pretty and attractive, okay? So I don't understand why a single guy wouldn't want to go out with me. Okay. I mean, do you think maybe he didn't buy the whole nanny dog lie? Yeah. I mean, he probably thought it was a psychopath. I don't know. Yeah.

I feel terrible because I don't even know this, man. We've never hung out like that, like on a date. And so, I don't know. I kind of want you guys to call him, get a read on him, and see if he likes me or not. Because, like, honestly, I wouldn't mind dating him for real. Okay. Are we going to come clean? Yes, Jeffrey, we already tried faking a dog on this show once, and it didn't go well.

And I don't recommend doing it again. Jose does a great dog bark. That's a little feral dog, so maybe that's a bad idea. We might have to come clean and tell Corey the truth if he picks up and let him know. Like, you're just genuinely interested and think he's a nice guy. Is that the worst thing to say? Yes. I wanted to bring this full circle because it's eating me alive.

You know it's not the worst thing to say. It's not the worst thing. But, you know, I can tell you've got a lot of emotions going on over there, Coco. We'll step in and do the work for you when we come back and do your second date update single dad style right after this. Hold on. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Second date update. If you're just joining us, we've been talking to Coco, a single mom who didn't really go on an official date.

She was kind of set up by her seven-year-old daughter. More questions are arising, Jess. Okay, it's way more normal if you heard the first part. Yeah, but she was convinced to go to a dog park to meet up with a random dad named Corey, where she lied to him several times about multiple things. Yeah, that's not good. But did give him her number and is a little disappointed that he hasn't reached out in the past eight days. She panicked life.

So that's where we're coming in to help her figure things out. It seems so easy. Yeah. Do you think that the dad, Corey, do you think he even understood why you were giving him your number? Do what I mean? Because, like, parents exchange numbers all the time. And it's like, oh, in case our kids want to hang out again. That's true.

Could just be for safety. Just say you have my number. Like, he wouldn't call you back if that was the reason in his head. I mean, I was flirting with him. Fides, but he should have thought that maybe I was interested. That's true. You know, a lot of times us guys do not pick up on that stuff. Especially when a guy is dialed into dog, daughter.

Here we are. He's in dad mode. Coco said that she was extremely attractive that day, too, so it doesn't matter what he thought the man brain should have gone to, I should date this woman. He should have snapped out of it. I hope that's not the first thing that men think of every time they see a woman. That is how man brains work. Yes.

Hot woman, I should date. Yes, I will marry you. It's not the brag you think it is. I'm not saying it's a brag. It's just how these dumb brains work. It's gotten us to this point, and let's keep going. It is time for me to call dad and find out why he's. He no want, talk to woman.

Cool. She likes it. Coco's following along. Let's just reach out. We'll see if Corey picks up. Here we go. Hello. Hey, is this Corey?

Did he say woo-hoo after a blow? I think his phone echoed. Oh. Hello, woo. Hello, yaha. I'm on the phone. Hey, sorry. Corey.

Is this Corey? Yeah. Hello? Hey, man. Brooke is dying right now. Yeah. You're hearing a lot of voices right now. because you're on a radio show called Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.

Woohoo? See, I knew she was going to do it. Yeah. Jeff, you got away from Brumpton containers. I just don't want to lose Corey. Corey, you there? Oh, God. Yeah.

Hey, man. Wait, what's happening? So you're on a radio show right now. My name is Jeff. This is called Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning, and we're doing a segment that's known as the second date update. Yeah. And we're trying to help out one of our listeners that you met the other day, a very nice woman

named Coco. Yeah, so my daughter's friend, mom, right? Right. Oh, you do remember her. You're tracking. See, that man brain just locked right in.

I'm still, I'm not sure what's so what now? What about her? Well, we heard that you two had a little interaction at the dog park and Coco gave you her phone number, but hasn't heard anything from you in

many days. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, I guess I did think about it, to be honest with you. Oh, okay. Just based on what I know, I don't think it would be that great of an idea. Based on what you know, wait, that was kind of vague. You know, what do you know?

So, I mean, you know how kids talk. Oh, yeah, they got all the good tea. Yeah, Brooke tells us all the time. So, yeah, her daughter was telling my daughter that, I guess, her mom wanted to have another baby with me. What? Whoa. Wait. Her daughter told your daughter that her mom wants to have a baby with you.

What do you think about that statement? Corey? I mean, I just met this lady one time at a dog park. Like, what am I supposed to think? No. Yeah, wait, wait. So, down the daughter is unhinged. It's so much worse than it really is.

That's not what she feels. I mean, kid tea is good tea, but because it's usually really exaggerated and not exactly accurate. And then I heard that she just recently got divorced. And it's because she was hooking up with the school bus driver. What? Whoa. Now that is some tea. Wait, why would her daughter know that?

Ooh, yeah, good point. Does that information intrigue you? Jeff. I mean, I'm curious, at least to know. Is you know men process, Brooke? Jack can't even think of this. Jeff another rode a public school bus before. No, but if it had been like this to hold it.

time? I missed out. Yeah, I mean, just for me, that's a lot of drama that I do not need to be involved in. That makes sense. That checks out. But maybe it's not true. Yeah, maybe it's not true. I think we agree. If all that was

factual, we would understand where you're coming from. But the only way to know for sure if it's real is to ask Coco directly, and it's perfect because she's on the other line right now, listening in on this phone call waiting to talk to you. Oh, my God. Hello, Corey

I mean, Coco, you needed to hear what your daughter's spreading on the playground. Yeah. She twisted it. And it's a total misunderstanding. So it's not true? I never told my daughter that I want another baby. My daughter is the one that wants a sister. She's coming up with that.

I feel like we should start with a bus driver. Yeah. Brooke wants to know how hot was this bus driver. No. Why would your daughter say that? Well, I did hook up with a bus driver, but from someone that I met on a dating app, not a school bus driver. Were you on a dating app while you? Not this school bus driver, the school bus driver from three schools over. He's in the other city.

Was that while you were married or while you were married? No, after I got divorced. Oh. He was your rebound. Yeah. It was kind of like the magic school bus. No, no. Please don't.

So you guys hooked up on the school bus? No. No. No. I didn't ride the school bus. She's not Mrs. Frizzle. This is kind of getting out of hand. I hooked up with a man who his job was to be a bus driver.

But not like our daughter's school bus driver. Like, no. The most important part is you did it while you were single as well. Right. Right. Right. Right. Like I know my.

daughter might have misspoken. I just wanted to clear the air a little bit. Like, there's just so many things that are not right here. I'm a normal human being attractive, I might say, and I'm not unicycles. Gotcha. All right. Coco, now that we've cleared the air, all the cards are on the table. Corey, how are you feeling about this? I mean, technically she's still hooking up with school bus drivers, which to me is kind of funky. Well, okay. Is that why you haven't called me because of that? Oh, sometimes you find out their types. We got a lot of bus drivers who are listening. Watch out.

You guys, she didn't say plural drivers. She thought it was one guy who happened to drive a bus. Well, in all transparency, technically I did date a second bus driver, but it wasn't for long. Oh. That's just probably because the app saw that you liked the first one. So the algorithm got set to bus drivers in your area. Right, the algorithm. All right.

Okay. So now that we have all of this new information, for you to process. What do you think about, you know, maybe given Coco a chance and seeing if there's more of a connection between you two? I mean, how many hot single moms can be available right now? Yeah. And she sounds like she's a really loving mother, too.

It was all misunderstandings, man. Yeah, so maybe you go to a movie with Coco and, you know, have some dinner and we'd pay for that. A movie's a terrible first date. Don't do that. You're right. You guys can take a bus ride together. I'll see what kind of competitions out there.

We'll pay the bus fee. Corey? Yeah, I mean, after talking to her and finding out the details, I guess, free dinner, I wouldn't mind giving it again. So he was an average dad with a mid personality. Yeah. I mean, he's processing, too. Let's give him a little bit of a crumb. I'm just saying I'm taking everything into account, and the free dinner definitely speaks the deal.

He does not sound excited at all. But that is a very dad answer. Yeah, free dinner, I can bring something home for my kids. Coco, I'm sorry that he's love bombing you so hard right now. I mean, I feel like I'm a last resort at this point, which is not fun. Well, that's not what you meant, right? Sometimes you've got to take what the world gives you. Right.

Is it a yes or no with Corey? Hell yeah. Yeah. Don't only your kids find out you guys are going on a date. This is going to go viral out there. She's going to be like, my mom's pregnant. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Getting ready for a game means being ready for anything.

Like packing a spare stick. I like to be prepared. That's why I remember 988, Canada's suicide crisis helpline. It's good to know, just in case. Anyone can call or text for free confidential support from a train responder anytime. 988 suicide crisis helpline is funded by the government in Canada. Silver 40 caliber handgun was recovered at the scene. From I-Heart podcasts and Best Case Studios, this is Rorschach, murder at City Hall.

How could this have happened in City Hall? Somebody tell me that. July 2003, Councilman James E. Davis arrives at New York City Hall with a guest. Both men are carrying concealed weapons. And in less than 30 minutes, both of them will be dead. Now everybody in the chambers ducks. A shocking public murder. I scream, get down, get down.

Those are shots. Those are shots, get down. A charismatic politician. You know, he just bent the rules all the time. I still have a weapon. And I could shoot you. And an outsider was a secret. He alleged he was a victim of flatdown.

That may or may not have been political. That may have been about sex. Listen to Rorschach, murder at City Hall, on the I Heart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. You know, sometimes the chemistry between two people is just undeniable. Yeah.

And I'm not even talking about Corey and Coco. I'm talking about Coco and all the school bus drivers in her district. The heat's just palpable there. I feel like the dating scene is not good for Coco right now. No. Like her whole sale on him was like, eh, he looked like an average dad.

And then he wasn't that into it. Yeah. I mean, he did laugh a lot, which I will say maybe there's something in there, like, once he gets comfortable that is more fun and charismatic. There's an underlying sense of humor there, but you can't blame a single dad who just wants a free Costco hot dog. Because that's what we're offering them. Oh, really? That's it. Parents, single parents especially, have super busy lives.

And as long as we hold that carrot out for Corey, some free food, he is willing to stick around and find out where it goes. And if it doesn't work out with them, she can always date. one other school faculty member. I'm sure. It's like a whole dating pool. Yeah, why not? And if you need some help in your love life, you can always email the show.

We'll call that person who's not calling you back. Go find all of our second dates. They're up on podcast wherever you get yours at Brooke and Jeffrey. I became a millionaire overnight and lost everything that actually mattered. Hold on, Sophia. Did you just say they lost everything after becoming a millionaire? That's right. And it gets worse.

It's inheriting too much drama week on the OK Storytime podcast, so we'll find out soon. This person writes, I just inherited a fortune after losing my mom, and now my girlfriend's entire family is coming out of nowhere with her hands out. And my girlfriend is already giving my money away. So the girl he wants to marry is already sending money out the door. Find out how it ends.
