Second Date Update.
What would hold
back a fun, attractive guy
from going out on a few dates
right now?
Maybe like a lack of funds?
That could be. That's a good point. Maybe
no time. Yeah, maybe his parents
are his roommates.
It could be a little embarrassing.
Or maybe he just got
engaged. And he's
like, yeah, I probably should stop
dating other people at this point.
Oh, boy. You've just now decided
this? I bring it up because one of our
listeners was engaged
until about a year ago.
When his fiancé
broke things off.
Aw, buddy.
And then ever since that point, he hasn't even had the urge to go out with anyone else.
I bet.
Until recently.
That's awesome.
When a special lady changed his mind.
So let's talk to RJ about it.
First of all, RJ, I'm sorry to hear about your engagement, my man.
Yeah, it was pretty rough.
But, you know know i'm getting
through it i'm pushing through good we're sending negative vibes to your ex and positive vibes to
you thank you i thought you were giving them to him
don't write hallmark cards okay i'll stick to radio stuff so tell us about the new girl that
you met who is she all. I met this woman.
Her name is London.
I met her at a happy hour.
Oh.
In person meet up.
Okay.
In person.
Rare, right?
Is it a friend happy hour or co-worker happy hour?
It was like a co-worker happy hour, but I don't work with her.
We have work friends, so she was there.
Okay.
Right.
And so we lock eyes.
And you know how you just instantly feel a connection when you lock eyes with someone
never that has not happened to me
I don't really like eye contact
are you serious?
you don't ever like make eye contact with somebody
and be like ooh I just want to make out with them
I mean I do think that but usually they run away
oh wow
I'll be honest that happens
a lot to me as well
alright that's good something clicks the drinks are flowing I don't know what it's like. I'll be honest. That happens a lot to me as well. Okay. All right.
That's good.
Something clicked.
The drinks were flowing.
The conversation was going great.
Nice.
And again, it's been a long time.
So I was feeling awkward, out of place.
But the connection was so strong that I still initiated.
And it was working out really great, you know.
That's awesome.
Was the connection strong or were the drinks strong?
Which one was it?
I feel like the connection was strong, but I don't know anymore after what happened.
Uh-oh.
What happened?
So the drinks are flying.
We're having a good time.
We end up back at her place.
Oh, dang.
Things are going really well.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
You know, I'm still out of practice.
So the music is playing and we're kissing.
And then all of a sudden, you know, you know that song Lady in Red?
Oh, my God.
Yeah.
Do I know?
That's my ringtone.
She's dancing with me.
She doesn't know it.
No, I don't know it.
But Brooke's singing is not.
Alexis doesn't know it.
It's like an 80s song.
Yeah, it's good.
It's real good.
Very romantic.
Very romantic. So we're slow dancing. And I mean, it's good. It's real good. Very romantic. Very romantic.
So we're slow dancing.
Oh.
I mean, I haven't been to her place before, and it's dark.
Uh-huh.
So I might have fallen over the coffee table.
Oh.
Where you fell?
I may have seriously injured my ankle.
Seriously?
Oh, no.
Oh, no.
Yeah, but you know what?
She was really sweet about it.
She gave me some ice, and, you know,
I ended up staying on the couch for the rest of the night.
That a boy.
Smart.
I mean, it's nice that she was really helpful,
but it sounds like it kind of killed the romance. Yeah.
Oh, definitely killed the romance.
There was nothing that happened after that.
We pretty much just got situated,
and then she went to her room,
and I slept on the couch,
and I left early because I had a doctor's appointment.
Okay.
So I said bye through the door.
Wait, for the ankle?
Yeah.
It was like, I got to get this looked at.
Oh, wow.
So you got online and, like,
booked yourself an appointment that night or something.
Yeah.
It was that bad.
It was definitely difficult to sleep that night with all the pain and stuff but you know i'm not gonna leave like a loser
okay i don't think i thought you were a loser well like a loser you know
are you in a walking boot now like what happened uh so it was a pretty bad strain so i had some
compressed on it.
Okay.
Okay.
Had she called to like check in on you?
Because like that would be, I mean, it's an automatic easy way to contact somebody.
I didn't hear anything back. You know, I thought I would have gotten a, oh, how's your friend?
Everything okay?
You know, let's try again another time.
Maybe she thought you had weak bones.
She doesn't want that.
I mean, even if you're
not interested in someone you'd still at least check on them like hey how's your right unless
you were really really whiny and complaining about it the entire time which i mean people
who handle injuries and sickness bad no it hurts so bad you mean men alexis
not like i had a cold, you know, but. That's brutal.
Okay, so how long has it been since that hangout at her place?
It's been a couple weeks.
Oh, dang.
Have you heard anything from, like, the co-worker friends that know her?
I haven't heard anything.
I'm so confused.
Weird.
This is definitely weird.
We're going to come back, and we're going to call London for you.
The person, not the city.
Yeah, we can't afford to dial one first.
Yeah, that'd be a little strange to do.
But we're going to come back, we'll reach out,
and we'll try and get you your second date update right after this, all right?
All right.
Okay, hold on.
Second date update.
Now I know.
Alexis has been to 30 weddings in a row this year,
and this song apparently has not played at any of them.
I don't think it's played for like 30 years.
I don't think it's played at any weddings.
They actually played Baby Shark at the wedding I was last at.
That's how you know.
Pretty similar.
Anybody who's familiar with this song is officially
old. But the reason
why we're playing it right now is
because our guy, RJ,
is going to forever remember this song.
Not as a happy time, but as
a painful one.
Because he was slow dancing with his date
in her apartment, ended up tripping
over a coffee table, and hurt
his ankle, which totally ruined
their romance.
Oh my gosh.
He had to spend the rest of the night on the couch.
Like legitimately hurt his ankle.
Had to go to the doctors the next morning.
Right.
Booked one that night.
The weirdest part is afterwards, his date London hasn't reached out to him at all to
even ask if he's doing okay.
And you know, we didn't ask you, is that a red flag for you?
Should be. and ask if he's doing okay we didn't ask you is that a red flag for you should be you know usually it is but for some odd reason this connection it's like i just oh she's hot enough that it's
okay she doesn't care is that what you're saying or the ankle medication is really messing up your
head right now you're not thinking right maybe i don't know i just gotta know what's going down
like what happened yeah all right well we have an idea of what maybe caused it.
Possible there's another answer for what went on, but let's just call.
Another twist in the story.
Oh, don't do that, bro.
Like, they twisted the ankle.
Oh, I didn't get it.
Yeah.
Just like Lady in Red.
You got to be old to get that one anyway.
All right.
Let's just dial this old school phone that we have.
See?
God, everything is old around here.
Oh, can't keep up with the dads.
Let's just do it, man. RJ, you ready?
I'm ready. Let's do it.
Here we go.
Hello?
Hi, we're looking for London.
This is she.
Hey, London. Not sure if you've ever been on the radio before, but this is for London. This is she. Hey, London.
Not sure if you've ever been on the radio before, but this is your day.
Oh, welcome to the radio.
Hi, what is this about?
Well, we're a morning show called Brooke and Jeffrey, and we're doing something called the second date update.
I've heard of those, but who are you guys?
Wait, who are we? Oh oh that's a pretty deep i swear we're
the only program that has ever done this on the face of the earth very original over here the
second date oh geez okay well just so you know so if you've heard this segment before you kind
of get the gist we're trying to help out one of our listeners with their dating life after they went out with you okay and there's a guy that you met up with a
couple weeks ago named rj oh my god yeah you met him at happy hour it sounds like you guys had a
great night um i don't know if i would call it great that's not the word i would use
i do remember rj yeah well he didn't have a great
time either even he says that it didn't go exactly the way he planned you don't know what her word
she would use is maybe her word is fantastic oh it's better is that the case freaky maybe
i mean there was a freak accident that happened. It still could be good, Alexis.
I know.
It sounds great to me.
Like a freak accident where he tripped over your coffee table and hurt his ankle?
Is that what you mean?
I mean, that's just the beginning of the wild ride that was the evening.
What?
Oh.
I thought he just laid down on the couch.
He told us he laid down on the couch and, like, you got him some ice.
You couldn't walk.
How wild could it be?
Yeah.
That was kind of the end of the story for him.
Yeah. No, I got him some ice, but was how wild yeah that was kind of the end of the story for him yeah no i got him some ice but i don't know about any sleeping um he said he struggled to sleep because his ankle hurt yeah i mean i'm sure it did but that didn't seem to stop him at all
from what what did he do well i went to bed and in the middle of the night, I hear a really loud noise. Probably trying to find the bathroom or something.
Okay.
No, like it sounds like a vacuum.
And as I get closer to undoing my door, I'm hearing him like making noises.
Do you know what I mean?
Like groaning.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Hey guys, guys, guys, guys.
Can I just interject?
Can I defend myself right now?
Wait, defend yourself from what?
Vacuum groans.
Oh my God.
RJ, are you calling me on the radio?
Yeah, that's how this segment works, London,
is that we usually have the listener
silently waiting on the other line
until we hear what the problem was.
And I just thought that maybe he was groaning in pain,
but why are you jumping in?
RJ, I'm really not happy with you because I feel like we were about to get to the good part there yes why are you stopping
this all right so first of all first of all i know what she heard wait what did she hear
yeah groaning noises i could so once again i'm in all this pain i'm trying to figure out you know
you go to the you go to the websites, you go online.
No, guys, he's laying on the couch, vacuum underneath a blanket,
perched like a tent, and he's making noises.
Oh, dang. Okay, okay.
Wait a minute.
RJ.
I understand how crazy this sounds.
It sounds and looks crazy.
Wait, vacuum?
Let me explain.
Okay, okay.
Is it just the hose?
The pain is intense i'm like let me just look up online
remedies for you know relieving pain in your ankle okay and i can drop an article that says
you can use the suction of the vacuum to help manipulate the blood in the swollen area she's
laughing london's laughing don't think about it. This sounds ridiculous. Think about it. Okay, so hold on.
It sounds like, Jose, you are on RJ's side there.
You think he was just vacuuming his ankle?
If you've ever sprained your ankle and gone to physical therapy like when I did in football,
they massage and they try to get blood flow.
I've never heard of suction, but technically he is right.
If you can get blood flowing around the area, he does that.
Did the nurse massage your ankle with their mouth and make it suck?
No, no, not mouth.
There were no vacuums.
Why wouldn't the ankle be on the ground to do said vacuuming?
Why would it be under a blanket?
I didn't track with a lot of injuries.
No vacuums.
No vacuums.
RJ, seriously, I was happy that you left without any question,
and I figured after your night, your wild night with my vacuum,
that you got what you question. And I figured after your night, your wild night with my vacuum, that you got what you wanted.
London, no!
Did you keep the vacuum after that?
No, and it was my neighbor's vacuum!
Oh, man.
Should we have been calling Hoover
for your second date update?
I'm hoping that he didn't use the vacuum the way
I'm pretty sure he did because I was cleaning up cat poop earlier with that.
Oh, no.
Oh, I'm going to be sick.
Gross.
All right.
Bottom line, I did not use that vacuum for what you thought or what it seems like I was using it for.
I promise.
Okay.
Benefit of the doubt, I guess.
I doubt that.
And you know what? I promise. Okay. Benefit of the doubt, I guess. I doubt that.
And you know what?
The only reason I didn't even bring that up with these guys is because I thought you were asleep.
I didn't hear anything. Oh, I'm sure you did.
I'm sure you did.
I don't know if that helps your argument, dude.
I will say, RJ, one quick and easy way to prove it to her is you could just forward on that link of that article about the vacuum and the injuries.
I will send it right now.
I feel bad for this guy.
He literally is like
in the worst pain,
can't sleep,
trying to help himself
and we're all here
making fun of him.
I think he helped himself.
I didn't mean like that.
We could do an experiment
in here,
bring a vacuum in
and test out the theory.
No,
someone has to be hurt first.
We can hurt Jose's ankle pretty easily.
It's a white breeze.
Yeah, I can roll in by accident.
So I'm looking on the tabs on my phone right now.
It's not on here now, but when I find it, I will send it.
Right.
He's quickly making a blog post as a doctor.
Yeah.
Okay.
Well, while RJ tracks down that website, I do need to ask london would you like to go out on
another date with rj that's something that we would pay for is it would be something wild for
me to turn down a free date but i think that this is gonna be it oh god this second date update
sucks in more than one way rj i Jeff. RJ, I'm sorry, dude.
Couldn't help yourself.
But if you want, we can send you a gift card over to like Dyson or something.
Oh, that's expensive.
Gift card, actually.
What about a shop vac?
That sounds like more your style.
Yeah, exactly.
You can just use a hand vac, I think, at this point.
Come on, guys.
I really did use it for my ankle.
Okay.
Even if I wanted to, I wouldn't do something like that in a stranger's apartment.
There you go. You wouldn apartment There you go I believe you
Why not at all?
We're getting a lot of texts into 7592 about what we just heard
One guy said, I actually tried that with a vacuum when I was 16 and I had to go to the hospital
What the heck?
Now I don't know what he means by tried that
Which one? Which thing did you try?
You know? The ankle injury or
never mind. Maybe we don't want to know.
Don't do it. A lot of people are saying
they can't find the link to that
medical tip either. Weird.
I'm sure he's going to find
it eventually and send it to her
three years from now and she's going to feel
so dumb after he built a whole website
just to put the link on there. Exactly.
That is exactly right.
I want to see the suction marks on his ankle.
I don't want to be involved anymore.
We all need to take
a shower after that.
The good news is that call
went so horribly that your
love life couldn't possibly be any worse.
Don't dare.
Or could it?
Text in 78592 or email
the show if you want us to call that person
who isn't calling you back. Please no more household
devices.
