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. Our own. Jose always thinks he's the one that's going to be scared. Jose's fears are right today. Oh.

Because apparently, according to this email, they met while doing one of Jose's absolute worst fears, physical exercise. Oh. I thought you were going to say like a roller coaster. Yeah. 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? Doing good. How about you? Oh, man, Vaughn. Doing good. Yeah.

I mean, what is this? You met a girl at a 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. My husband's at a run club. Should I be concerned? That really is the worst club I could think of. Because 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 uh like an exercising club or a dating type of club

oh it's kind of like a mix of both it's like if you're single you wear black or something dark okay 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 usually he just wears a bunch of pineapple shirts. I don't know. I don't know what that means. How many people are in this club? There had to have been at least 100 people. There's a party.

This is like a big event. It's a crazy thing because there's a lot of hot chicks there. There had to have been at least 50-60%. There's actually hotties there. People who exercise can be good-looking. Oh, that's why. That is strange.

Jose just made the case. It is true. Jose's still not going to join a run club. No. How did it go? Me and my dad-bod bros are fine. We're pretty good. That's how I met Tess.

Tess, okay. Okay. Yeah, she had really nice calves. 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. Oh, my God. I think it's such a good compliment.

You were able to get to know Tess a little bit there? I did, and I got to seal the deal. I got her number. Oh. Nice. You also have a different definition of sealing the deal with a girl. Yeah. So a lot of differences here.

But good. I'm glad you got her phone number. I think just the first deal maybe is what he's talking about. One of many deals to come. I think he like picked up an envelope. 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? Okay. Tell us about it. Yeah. Give 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 her this is how many calories that we burned on our run. What? And now we had to gain it back on the menu. Huh? Smart.

I almost made that comment about burning calories. No. Huh? Smart. I almost made that comment about calories. No. No? No. Don't talk about calories ever with a woman. I don't think that's... I think he's just trying to be like fun and creative and playful with her. I understand his intention.

Not be like, we need to count calories together. That's how it comes off, though. It doesn't matter what his intention was. And also, he's using a note card. Like, don't you have like an... I don't know. Just your phone. How did Tess react to the note card move?

She loved it, but. Whoa. Oh. You loved it. In your face, Brooke. She's not calling you back, so. I thought she loved it. In your face, she loved it.

Yeah. I think that counts as a win. Oh, my God. So, you guys ordered a bunch of food together, right? Yes. Okay. You cheat-mealed it. food together, right? Yes. Okay. You cheat-mealed it. And then she guiltily ate it all.

And they cried. I'm kidding. Yeah. No, what happened next? Well, we just kind of hung out and grabbed some drinks and had a good time. The place that we were at had some really cool tall shelves. Tall shelves? Yeah.

I've never heard that. Like that you would put books on or something? What do you mean? Yeah, yeah. It looked like you put books on it, but they had a bunch of mugs on it. Mugs. A bunch of steins or something? Yeah, kind of like steins.

And so these drunk dudes are by there. I don't know why they're standing by there, but they're kind of hanging out and stumbling around there. They actually bumped one of the shelves that was holding this really expensive looking one. Oh, God. It was about to come down, and I saw that Tessa's right underneath it. I made a quick movement, just pulled her out of the way. She got a little upset, but then crashed right behind her with a mug.

No way. Hero move. Wow. You saved her life. That's the universe, dude. You were put in a situation to protect her, and you did, bro. Good job. Was she grateful, or was she upset by that?

Oh, after she saw what crashed behind her, then she realized that would have been her. Yeah. That's kind of wild. You must be thinking, I'm getting a kiss for sure now. Oh, yeah, dude. You nailed it. It was like one of those kiss moments. You must be thinking, I'm getting a kiss for sure. Oh, yeah, dude. You nailed it. It was like one of those kiss moments. It was.

And she gave me one right on the cheek. Oh. Cute. Okay. That's a hero kiss. You don't just make out. And it's first date. That's cute.

I mean, it means that she's, like, somewhat attracted to you. Yeah. Well, that's the kiss that my mom gave me when I graduated fifth grade. My statement still stays true, Jeff. 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 didn't see her her at the last one but you have texted her yeah i gave her a couple messages she hasn't replied back i was kind of did you send her another nutrients uh 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 him yeah she wanted to hold on to them as a memory of your guys time together sorry no more physical activity

holding these cows in it's gonna be my new excuse for not exercising yeah i want to remember this meal these are love cows i worked out hard today 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. 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. 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. Wow. I mean, that should automatically earn him five more dates. Five? Wow, that's a lot. I was just thinking of me being fake.

That's the superhero fee. Oh, is that? That's why Superman always has dates. Dude, are you serious? That's why he saves Lois Lane constantly. Are you joking me? He's expecting something in return this whole time? Yeah. You think he's working for free?

He's so typical. But he... And exhausting. It's true. But Vaughn hasn't even been able to score one more date with Tess, which is why 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, you know?

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, but there weren't many people watching. Everyone's probably focused on the drunk guys who knocked it over. 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 dialing it right now hello hey is this tess yeah you sound busy sorry t, to bother you. 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. Yeah. It's with a guy named Vaughn that you met at Run Club. Oh, yeah. Okay. That's a funny little chuckle. I can't tell that was a good laugh. Yeah, pretty neutral.

But here's the cool thing. 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 fine. Yeah. Fine? Yeah. But you're laughing still. Is a nervous yeah have you heard this

segment before where we call people or no actually but uh yeah we went to this bar and like we we know we we heard the story from vaughn we talked to him about it because he had a great time yeah and 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 do you know the part where the mug fell off the shelf? Oh, yeah.

Yeah. 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. He, like, swooped in.

It was just, like, the whole place was covered in mugs, like, on these shelves. Yeah. He swooped in, like, in this weird split second to, like, save me from this mug. And, like, 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 Marv. But I thought he said you didn't see it until after it crashed right where you had been sitting. I mean, it wasn't that high up. It wouldn't have killed me or anything. It was so extra, and we had just gone out. We were there max an hour at that point. We hadn't spent any time together alone before that.

I don't know if the time limit has... What does that have to do? Maybe she needs to know her superheroes before they step in. 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 friends stop talking to guys who are like, I'm going to stand on this side of the road

when we're on a walk because it's safer for you there. And they get turned off by that. God, your friends are 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 seemed like he was just obsessed with me, so I just had this major ick after that point. He's on a date with you so he is probably paying attention i don't know if it's obsessive i i major ick i don't want you to get the feeling that he's like obsessed with you always watching and trying to protect you or anything this isn't gonna help jeff this is gonna make things worse at a certain

point i have to let you know that he is actually listening in on the conversation not in like a weird way he just wanted to hear the reasoning unless he was smart enough to hang up already i don't know yeah act like you don't care bro hang up right now are you there von yeah i'm there did you just say, oh, Alexis? Yeah. Because of how it's going to go in a sec. Let's let them talk and maybe they can work something out. Go ahead, you two.

What am I going to do? Just let a heavy glass mug 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 save people. And whether if you're a stranger or somebody I've met for an hour. That's a good argument. Ew. Ew. Ew. That deserves an ew. That's a good argument. Ew. That deserves an ew.

I back that. 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

of a moving car. I'm just saying you step around a corner. I think what she's saying is that she doesn't want to be treated like a damsel in distress. 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 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 like it would depend what your tone was too like you were telling me like 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 like oh heads up like just i'm a normal kind human like have a moment of your time pardon ma'am i think i actually see what she's saying too because you're in public at a bar he's yelling it too that's another layer you would be the worst person to take a bullet. I mean, I'm just saying.

I'm just starting to get the ick from him, too. That's all I'm saying. It reminds me of when I'm driving with my husband and he acts like I don't see the other cars on the road and he's like, oh my God. Literally, I know they're turning, okay? I'm not an idiot. Okay. I know exactly.

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. No, he can't say watch out. He has to be like, excuse me, but perhaps take a look at your surroundings. He can say 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 you to be. So with that said, we would like to offer to send you guys out on another date. I don't want to be too aggressive in offering to pay for it or anything. So we just want to facilitate a meetup of some sort, Tess, if you're open to that. I mean, 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 why you may want to try to be mean right now i think that's your last option yeah do you have anything

else to say to her listen tess i'll put in words that you can understand oh god wow condescending yeah yeah i think anything that he says is condescending That was a little condescending What do you want to say? I'm sorry what was that? I thought you had something that you were going to say He commanded the room like I did I told you

What did you want to say? New phone who dis? No date I'm good Oh you're backing out It's probably better she's going to say? New phone. Who this? No date. I'm good. Oh, you're backing out. It's probably better. She's going to say no anyway. It sounds like Vaughn just got hit in the head by a falling girl. All right.

Better luck next time. We should have warned him, Jeff. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Okay, so Brooke, I know you were kind of joking there. What? But are you seriously saying a guy should not step in to help a woman who's about to get seriously injured? No, I think they can step in. I'm just trying to explain why she doesn't want them to. Like, sometimes it feels like it wasn't that serious of a situation.

It sounds like she'd get a little bonk on her head and he, like, shoved her out of the way. You know, like. Yeah, he made it a big deal. It felt like a little much from him. Okay. I just want to make sure that that's not the side that you're on. Don't help people in danger. That's the stance that you want to take?

Always help people. I mean, not always. Okay. Not always help people. You got to read the room. Well, okay. Read the room. Well, this is good.

Maybe you don't have to take those CPR classes, at least if you're a guy now. This guy just got shot, sir. Would you mind if I call the authorities or anything? Statistically, women get CPR administered to them a lot less than men. Well, good. Because we don't want to come off too clingy. We want to let the women give a chance to resuscitate themselves. It's literally because guys don't want to touch their chest. I'm not joking. It's like crazy. But you know what we will do? We'll help you resuscitate your love life. Because guys don't want to touch their chest. I'm not joking. Like, it's like crazy. Oh, man.

But you know what we will do? We'll help you resuscitate your love life if you give us permission to do it first. We'll call that person who's not calling you back, email the show for help anytime, and go check out our second day podcast wherever you get yours, at Brooke and Jeffrey. We're so done with New Year, New You. This year, it's more you on Bumble. More of you shamelessly sending playlists, especially that one filled with show tunes.
