if you just had a cooler name? Sorry, Jeff. I love my name, too. Okay, good for you guys. But I just think something like, you know, Ace or Lando. I'm glad you weren't in charge of naming yourself. It could have been worse. Zeppelin.

I mean, that's cool. Jeffrey hasn't done me any favors. Especially in the dating world. Nobody goes, ooh, his name is Jeffrey? He sounds hot. Yeah, you sound like a butler. So one of our listeners, though, emailed us, and I know he's legit because he signed it A-Mart. How cool is that?

Like K-Mart, but with an A? Yeah, exactly. Let's talk to him. What up, A-Mart? Hey, what's up? What's up? Oh, dude. Oh, sweet, him. What up, A-Mart? Hey, what's up? Oh, sweet, dude. Where'd you get the name A-Mart from? Well, you know, my name's Anthony, but

all my friends call me A-Mart. You know, I don't know if it had anything to do with the fact that I wore K-Mart clothes at one time when they were in business, so I don't know. Didn't we all? That layaway did my family right. All right, A-Mart. We just called Brooke Walmart. That't we all? Yeah. That layaway did my family right. All right, Amart. We just called Brooke Walmart.

That's for a different reason. Who did you go out with? I went out with a girl named Kylie. I mean, we met online on a dating app. Okay. Kylie, all right. And what'd you like about Kylie? Kylie likes fishing like I do.

Oh, sweet. Hey, that's hard to find a girl that's into fishing. Not for compliments, huh, Alexis? I like that type of fishing. She's not scared to bait her own hook, so, I mean, I'm impressed. I don't know what that means, but it sounds sexy. Jeffrey also doesn't fish. I don't think it was a euphemism.

Oh, she's not? Okay. He's not talking about his hook? No, no, no. I got you. Cool. Well, she sounds great. Yeah, she's not? Okay. He's not talking about his hook? No, no, no. We're talking about putting a worm or something. Cool. Well, she sounds great. Yeah, she was awesome. She definitely had a nice figure. Oh, okay.

Oh, yeah. Did you take Kylie out fishing? No, we didn't go fishing on the first date. We actually went to a bar. That's relaxed. That's cool. All right. Yeah, yeah. We actually went to a bar. We didn't get to talk that much online. So we got to really, really, really get to know each other on the date in person.

That's good. What was it like? To me, it was great vibes, you know. And I kind of share something with her. I'm into composting. So I know it's not the sexiest conversation. Yeah. Just one of my things that I'm into now.

Sweet, dude. Good for the environment. It's pretty amazing. Stuff can just go back to dirt. Wow. I hope your conversation was good. You make me want to take my pants off saying stuff like that. And she's a lady who already likes fishing and worms.

I mean, you need worms for composting as well. Well, you know, the compost is not going into a landfill and nothing. It's actually natural and it's healthier for the garden. Oh, yeah. You don't have to tell us.

We're sold. But how long exactly did you talk about composting on this date? Like 10 minutes? No, I think I really did consume a lot of the conversation with it

because, you know, I'm so passionate about it. I didn't have any thoughts as if she was looking at it as it's weird. I didn't really get an indication of that. Did she ask you a lot of questions? Was she the one at least leading this or were you just monologuing? I was just monologuing. There's an honest moment. Maybe I went over the top a little bit, but I end up going to the restroom. I didn't want to leave her very long, but the line was long. So when I got back, you know, I wanted to, went in to just give her a hug.

And she was like, really kind of standoffish. Oh, really? Yeah. Just because you took a long time at the bathroom? Maybe all the things before that. I really don't know what it was. I really liked her and I thought things were going well. I don't know if it was me talking too much about

my passion of composting. Yeah. I don't know. Sometimes when, like, you're left to sit and think by yourself for a minute and reflect on what just happened,

you're like, ew, that was worse than I was. Yeah. I want to go. I was in it. Yeah. Totally. What about fishing, though?

Didn't fishing come into the first date if you guys bonded over it? Oh, yeah. Well, we bonded over the fishing, though? Didn't fishing come into the first date if you guys bonded over it? Oh, yeah. Well, we bonded over the fishing, but I think me talking about composting kind of took over. I mean, I'm excited about it. And since we were vibing, I just wanted to really share to see if she was, like, feeling that conversation. But to be honest, I don't think she was. I don't think she was. I don't know, man. I think if I was a woman out on a date with a guy named Amart talking about eggshells going into my garden, I would be ready to go.

I'd be so turned on. You're saying coffee grounds, too? Guys, we have to stop this. Coffee grounds are great for worms. Oh, now we're talking about worms, too? We got to play a song, man, because it's getting steamy in here. Oh, we're going to go to the song. Buttons are coming off.

It does actually get warm. It creates heat as it's close to you. I mean, honestly. Yeah. Sexy. So how long has it been since you went out with Kylie? It's been over a month. Oh, you could compost a lot of garbage in a month, I bet.

Yeah. I mean, I really would like a second chance if it's possible. Yeah. I'd love to go back out with Kylie. Maybe a better listener and more interested in her next time. Yeah. Save the composting talk for like the 27th date. Yeah.

Honestly. That's a good thing to remember. Let's play a song. We'll come back. We'll call Kylie and try to hook that worm for you. Get your second date update. That was a hot joke. Thank you, man.

Amar knows. We're going to do second date update right after this. Hold on. Second date update. What a bummer. You go out with a cute girl, buy her drinks, compliment her figure, and then wow her with a detailed breakdown on the sensual world of composting. And then after all that trouble, you go in for a hug at the end of the night and the girl blocks you out?

Wow, bro. That's just cold. Which I've learned is not what composting is. Composting generates heat, according to Brooke. Brooke knows. A little bit of warmth there. Yeah, but that's what happened to one of our listeners named Amart. And Amart, you said this date happened about a month ago,

and you've tried reaching out to her a few times. My question is, do you just want to know what went wrong here, or are you still hoping to get another date with Kylie? I want both. I mean, I want both. I did try to text her like four or five times, and I did ask, did I do something wrong? But I got no response. And you didn't send her any links to more information on soil, right?

No, no compost talking. Okay. I like how Brett goes, too. Look, if I didn't talk about composting enough, just let me know. She's talking to her friends like, this guy's dirty. No, I mean like literally dirty. Like he likes dirt. For a good reason.

Yeah. I don't think that's what she's going to say. All right, A-Mart. I think she may have just been a little bored on the date, but we can recover from that. It's a lot to hear. On a scale of one to ten, how confident are you going into this?

I'm going to go with three. Oh. Oh. Well, he knows. At least you know you messed up. Sometimes we're on the phone. People have no idea what happened. Well, I'm at a seven. And put together, he knows. At least you know you messed up. Sometimes we're on the phone. People have no idea what happened. Well, I'm at a seven.

And put together, that makes a ten. Maximum confidence going into this call. Let's do it. Weird scale, but okay. Here we go. I know we could add opinions. We could do whatever we want. Our show, our rules.

Let's call Kylie. We'll see what she has to say. Yeah, let's get it done. That's right. All right. Okay, here we go. Hello? Hey, is this Kylie?

This is she. Hey, what's up, Kylie? Hi. Hi, Kylie. Hi. Who is this? We're a morning show called Brooke and Jeffrey in the Morning. Okay.

Are you familiar at all? Nine times out of ten, I ask that question and most people say no. So are you the one? It sounds somewhat familiar. Oh, we'll take that as a win. Big win. It's a good day for us now. Hopefully the bosses are listening. Yeah, I'm really confused.

What's going on here? We're just trying to generate some fun small talk before we get into the deep convo. Some camaraderie between us, Kylie. We want to ask you about your dating life. What? About my dating life? Mm-hmm. Okay, why?

Because one of our listeners says that he went out with you recently. He calls himself Amart. Oh, oh. Okay. You know who I'm talking about? Oh, yeah, Amart. Yeah, that's Anthony, right? Yeah.

Right. He sounds like a sweet guy. Yeah. Oh, yeah, he was nice. It just, it was a little strange, I guess, of a date and kind of took a different turn and just, yeah. What part of it was strange to you? What did he tell you?

I mean, only good stuff, really. Date at the bar, compost compost talk very sexy composting he did not say very sexy he was worried that maybe he monologued for too long yeah he didn't have to say sexy it was implied just adding that piece in alexis and i think you may have been a little bored yeah yeah i'll admit it the the composting seemed a little obsessive. He talked about it a lot, but that's his thing. That's fine. That's good for the earth.

Okay. Do you hate the environment? I don't, but I kind of was curious, like, what are his personal bathroom habits as far as composting? What all does he use for composting? Did you say his personal bathroom habits in terms of composting yeah i mean he was the one that brought it up and i i didn't really want to delve in too far as to what wait hold on does he have a compost toilet is that what you're saying it was something to do with i don't know if it's his own matter that comes out. We have a compost toilet

at my family's cabin. I mean, you do. You gotta put some peat moss in there and you gotta turn the thing before you leave. You're not helping as much as you think you are. It's not that bad. It kind of turns to this ashy nothingness. You've now made

it even worse. Is that what grossed you out, though? That's what turned you off? It wasn't the greatest of conversations, but that wasn't the end-all, be-all of the date. Oh, really? It was something a little bit later on. I don't know of anything else that happened during your date. He said he went to the bathroom and he was in the line for a long time.

Oh, right. Did you think that he had left you in it or something? He did go to the bathroom and he was gone for a while. And I just thought, well, I need to go use the restroom myself. So I went and got in the line and here he comes out of the bathroom finally. And the attendant said, no, you need to go back in there. You didn't wash your hands. Wait, the attendant actually called him out on that? The attendant said, no, you need to go back in there. You didn't wash your hands. Ew.

Wait, the attendant actually called him out on that? I mean, that'd be sweet. I wish more of this happened. I don't know a whole lot of guys that do, though. It's so gross. Religiously gross. No, yeah. In that moment for me, that attendant deserved a tip.

Because to call him out and say, you need to go back in there and wash your hands. I was like, oh, no. not the guy I'm here with. He didn't wash his hands. That is embarrassing. Maybe he was just in a hurry and he forgot. Yeah, because he said that he was worried that you were kept waiting at that table for so long. Now I feel bad because he's actually been waiting

for a long time on the other line wanting to talk to you. So let's just rush him out, no hands washed, and put him on with you. Amar, are you there? He's on the phone? Yeah. Okay. I'm here. All right.

Hi. All right, cool. This is as awkward as that attendant in this conversation, I think. Amar, why don't you apologize? Well, not apologize, but just address what she was talking about. Kylie says you weren't washing your hands. No, I didn't wash my hands. I just believe in the more natural thing.

What? What's the natural thing? Bacteria growing all over your hands is the more natural thing? It's the natural killer. It's not. Washing your hands prevents disease and sickness.

Oh, no, Brooke, we already heard you go off on that. I heard that washing actually weakens your immune system. That when you have your dirty hands... This is what every frat guy ever says. No, you need to expose yourself to germs in order to build up

your immunity so you don't get sick. Is that it? It's actually the smart thing to do. Is that it? Because I feel like smart thing to do. Is that it? Because I feel like you and Jose are more sick in this studio than anybody else. Kylie, don't you understand? It's a health thing. It's good.

It's good for you. No, it's good for you to keep your hands washed. Yeah. Well, I'm not opposed to washing my hands. It's just I do wash my hands under just water, you know. It's just I don't use the soap. Okay. Broke, you seem like

you should be on board with this more than anybody else. You use only organic materials. You were excited about that toilet thing, right? Yeah. You don't compost. Yeah, guess what I do

after I use the compost toilet at my parents' cabin? You don't shower for two weeks after. I wash my hands. Dude, washing your hands is so vital to public health. Really? Did the cavemen wash their hands with soap, Brooke? No, and they live to be like 16 years old, Jeffrey. Hot 16 years. In Brooke's defense, her hands are the

only thing she washes. I mean, Kylie, is that really a deal breaker for you? He didn't wash his hands one time so we could rush back out to spend more time with you? No, it didn't really sound like that to me. To me, it sounded like he's really not into it and that he doesn't ever use soap. And just for me, that's not my cup of tea. I'm sorry. I'm just imagining him just hand deep in his compost, working at just what's under his fingernails. Take your fantasies somewhere

else, Brooke. It is not. It's called being one with the earth. Yeah. He's connected. It's like the movie Avatar. Yeah. He's like father nature. Right. Honestly though, Amar, I do think you're going to struggle a little bit in the dating world

if you don't start using soap and water. You're going to have to go places without attendance. Well, she shouldn't have been spying on me. She wouldn't have ever known that. That's a good point. Oh, it's her fault. Okay, here we go. Kylie, would you like to apologize for spying on me?

No, I was in my own line. Thank you. Are you sure? I'm fine. You could give that apology to him in person when we send you guys out on a second date that we pay for. I appreciate it, but when I haven't responded to text messages in a month, I'm sorry. I just come out with it.

You don't want a meal of finger foods with him? He's a grown man. He can do it. Yeah. Well, Tali, I have a great immune system. I haven't had an STD in over three months. Oh, nothing to do with it. That's a record for this show.

Doesn't have to do with washing your hands. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. You know, everybody has their unique quirks, okay? And I feel like we need to be more accepting of them as a show because we're hearing them more and more. No, not washing your hands is not a quirk. It's just gross. Yeah, it's gross. I mean, you will not find a doctor on the planet that would recommend not washing your hands.

Oh, good thing we don't trust doctors anymore. Okay. What about washing your body every month? Every month? Yeah, once a month would be great. I wash my body once a month You could sure learn to be more accepting With some of our listeners or even some of us like when Jose bites his fingernails and makes a pile of them on the desk

Accepting of that instead of being all judgmental. Maybe say something nice to him like, wow, that was an impressive pile. Yeah, I'm hygienic. Can you? I don't like long nails. And sometimes you forget the pile of fingernails on the table. And so then they turn that kind of yellow color after they've been sitting for a week. I was hoping that we could be a little bit more accepting of people and their flaws on this show.

That's a lot for me to ask. Things have gotten less. Less accepting, Jeff. If you ever want to get a second date update and be judged for every little mistake you've ever made, email the show. We'll call the person who's been calling you back. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Ugh, we're so done with New Year, New You. This this year it's more you on bumble more of you

shamelessly sending playlists especially that one filled with show tunes more of you finding gemini's because you know you always like them more of you dating with intention because you know what you want and you know what we love that for you.
