All right, here it is Monday.

We're kicking it off with a brand new episode on our second day. So thanks so much for being here. I hope you had a good weekend. And what do we got for comments, Alexis? Yes. Tim Boy said, this is the only thing that gets me through my days is a FedEx driver. Shout out from Charleston, South Carolina. Please stop moving here. Thanks.

Oh, like everybody. Maybe too many deliveries. He can't do any more. Oh, I got it. Okay. Oh, and before we get into the second day, I do have to say hi to Lily and Stella. Oh, okay. We're two high schoolers.

who chased me down at a kids event I was at this weekend. They wrote me a poem even. Yes. Can you read it? No, they just recited it to me. It was a live performance. Wow. You had to be there.

Yeah, you had to be there. So, hey, thanks for listening. And your second date starts right now. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Second date update. You know, if you search Brooke and Jeffrey on YouTube, you might get a case of mistaken. identity.

Oh, yeah. Don't even get me started with those stupid AI videos of us. There are so many weird copycats that use fake AI generated images of me and Brooke. If I look like I'm about to sell you a car, it's done by AI. Or a house. Is it bad, Brooke, when your AI doppelganger has Botox? Yes. Yes.

It is. It is. And somehow lip filler. Like, what is happening? At least AI you is doing good self-care. I saw one where I was in a sequin. jacket for some unknown reason. I mean, that's more realistic.

Yeah, Sequins is making a comeback. But what happens if you get a case of mistaken identity when you're on a first date? Oh. That's how today's caller Noah landed himself here on our show this morning. Noah, how you doing, man? I'm all right. How are you guys doing? I feel like somebody went out with the wrong person on this date just the way Jeff set it up. I mean, your email said there was some kind of weird mix-up that happened during your date.

Why don't you run us through it? All right. So I matched with this really cute girl online. She's just my type. She's got dark curly hair. Cute. Works out. You tell from her profile picks.

She's about 5 foot forward. It's like exactly my type. All right. That looks like one of Brooks AI doppelgangers that I've seen before too. Probably. Yeah. Right. Curly hair the opposite of what you have.

Whatever. Okay. So you were attracted? Yeah. Attracted. and then we were messaging each other back and forth on the app. So we decided to meet up at this bar that's like right by where I work. And it's usually busy.

There's a good vibe around there. So I get there early and I'm sitting there and I'm waiting. And this woman comes up to me. She gives me a big hug. She says, hey, how are you? Yeah, she's like very warm. It's very comfortable. And so she sits down and we start having our conversation.

Okay. Wait, what's your name, this brown curly-haired goddess? Okay, I'll get to that. Hang on. Okay. So meeting people on the apps, you go to the profile, you memorize some things that are on their profile so that you could bring it up and it's part of topics conversation. Okay. So I know she's into yoga.

She likes guys with great sense of humor and she likes dark chocolate. And I'm bringing all of this stuff up. And it's not registering. She said I'm getting all of these things wrong. Oh. What? Oh, does she one of those that used AI to set up her profile? No.

No. No. No. So about 15 minutes into the conversation, we both realized that we met the wrong person. No. Coincidentally, we both set up dates at the same restaurant at the same time. And I guess our dates, we both kind of look enough like each other to where we could mistake each other. Oh, my God.

So she thought she was meeting up with a different guy. too. Exactly. And this girl, the first girl I met with, her name was Chloe. Okay, so wait, the original, the original curly brown hair girl is Chloe. No, no, no, no, no, no. The

mistaken girl's name's close. Okay. Okay, okay. So now you're on a date with Chloe that was completely not planned. Right, exactly. So we're like, oh, shoot, we have our dates that we're supposed to meet, and

they're probably here waiting for us. Oh, God. What was your feeling about that? Were you laughing about it? Were you mortified? It was very funny, but it also kind of sucked, too, because, like, I was having such a good time. And I realized that, like, this is not the person

who I'm supposed to be here with. And you don't want to stand the other person up. And it kind of looks like you planned a date before your date now if the next girl sees you. Oh, good point, too. Yeah, that's bad. So what's your move? So we're both kind of just processing what's happening.

and we both realize, oh my God, we need to go looking for our date. What if you find a third one? Are you a girl who's into yoga and likes dark chocolate, too? Oh, my God, they're everywhere. I kind of hope they're on a date. Like, you find them together, you know? They found each other. Everybody looks alike.

Well, the problem is that her date, she ended up finding out that her date ditched her. Oh, geez. Stood her up. Isn't there part of you that wants to do that to the person you were supposed to meet since you're having such a good time with Chloe? So you can stay on your date? Well, that was the thing. I felt like the gentlemanly thing to do was to continue on with the date that I had set up and not ditch the first.

Yeah, it's the right thing to do. I mean, a real gentleman would have just said, hey, come join this date. It's now a triple date. Yeah, I can handle two at once. Yeah, come on. And the other girl would love that. Yeah, right? Thank you, Alex.

I think you guys watch too many adult films. Oh, what? There's no such thing as too many. Thank you, Jeff. Go on. There is. Okay, so I go back to Chloe. I give her a hug.

I tell her like, I'm really sorry, but I asked her, I was like, how about you give me your phone number? Because we had such a good connection. Okay. So she gave me her phone number. And then I went along on my original date. And that date went, it went okay. It was fine. Oh, but you were thinking about Chloe the whole time, weren't you?

Well, there just wasn't that same connection there. Yeah. And I don't know if that messed me up or whatever, but yeah, it just wasn't the same. Oh, that's cute. It was just natural and fun with Chloe. But just asking as a question, because I don't know, as a woman, would it seem douchey if a guy was like, hey, I'm going to go leave to meet with another girl. But before that, can I get your number? No.

That doesn't come off as like, no. You had this girl get ready to dress up, leave her house and come. I think it was a nice thing that he didn't stand her up. Yeah. She knows the situation. And she may actually go, oh, he still has respect for the other girl. That's a nice. I mean, that's what dating is, right?

Talking to meeting and seeing who's out there. Have you talked to Chloe Sends? Yeah, we have. texted her a little bit, but she doesn't reply too much. Like, her responses are very short. I guess you really need our help then when we come back

and we call Chloe, the girl you weren't supposed to go out with, but ended up connecting with anyway. Who doesn't like chocolate or yoga? That's not her thing. Or humor. Yeah, that was the other girl's thing. We'll make sure to bring none of that in the conversation when we do your second date update right after this. Broken Jeffrey in the morning.

Second date update. Let's recap. real quick. Our listener Noah had a case of mistaken identity where he was scheduled to meet up with a dark chocolate yoga loving woman with dark curly hair and instead

found himself chatting with a dark curly haired woman who doesn't like chocolate and is more into Pilates. Oh, did she say that? Well, I don't know about that last part. I'm just assuming they're different. But it was all an accident and they both realized 15 minutes

in. They were there with the wrong people. Yeah. So out of just pure respect, Noah decided he should go and find his original date and spend some time with her, but he promised to arrange a future hangout with Chloe. Unfortunately, that is not materialized, and that's where he's hoping we can step in to help. Yeah. Do you know what I'm thinking?

It may not be your fault at all. It's not my fault. No, not your fault. I'm talking about, what's his name? Noah. I'm talking about Noah. I don't think it's Noah's fault. Thank you.

Yeah. Well, here's the thing. Like, her original date stood her up, remember? Yeah. So she left that night probably feeling pissed off. And, like, you just kind of got wrapped up into it, right? Oh, yeah. Like, her memory of the night's bad.

Yeah, but that still doesn't explain why she won't hang out with me for another date, though. I could have been the last straw. I hate to be that guy. But, like, there is a straw, and she may just be done with dating now. Yen. Went home, deleted the app. Yes. Until next week.

This was the last chance that she was given, and it fell flat. so she is sworn off men forever. Okay. That was my optimism. Yeah. We're hoping she's done. I didn't hope for that. Isn't it sad?

That's what the world's come to. But here we are. I mean, I'm hopeful too, but it's been like a few weeks. And I just, I don't know. I don't know what you guys can do. We'll get answers at least. Let's see. And if you could be a little bit less hopeful because it puts a lot of pressure on me.

And I don't like that. I can do that. Beautiful. Okay. I'm going to dial the number. Here we go. Hopefully Chloe answers. Hello.

Hey, Chloe, this is a radio show called Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Okay. Hi, good morning. Probably a little shock to hear a radio show calling you. It's not an everyday thing. Yeah, how you doing? I'm confused. That's exactly how we want you to be.

That was so crazy. What are you on today? Dark chocolate. I get that you're confused. This is totally weird that a radio show is calling you. But we're doing a segment called a second date update. Okay. Why are you calling me?

I mean, I guess you didn't officially go out on a date with this guy. Yeah, it was like kind of a half date, an accidental date with one of our listeners named Noah. Okay. Yeah, I remember Noah. Okay. That's good. Yeah, because he said it's been a couple weeks since you guys have talked. So, I mean, that's not entirely true.

like we've been texting. Yeah, he mentioned that you are texting, but it's been kind of sparse where you don't seem very interested in hanging out with him. That's the vibe that he's getting. Well, I mean, I guess it just seemed like he may be like somebody else more. Are you talking about the original date he was supposed to be on? Oh, he told you about that? Yeah.

He filled us in on how there was kind of a mix up for both of you when you arrived at the, was it a bar? I mean, what a funny coincidence. You two walk in both looking for a first date you've never met and you end up sitting with each other on accident. Like that's like early people. It was kind of strange how that happened. But yeah, it just kind of felt like he was just a little more into the other date. How could you tell?

I promise I'm not crazy. Oh, no. Good start. Go, let her go. Let her cook. I'm not crazy, but where are we going? What's happening? Okay, so first I just want to say, like, I fully supported him going on his original date.

That was the right thing to do. Okay. It didn't bother you that he didn't stand her up. No, it didn't bother me at all. Okay. But after I said goodbye to him, I kind of maybe didn't leave the bar. Oh. Oh, that's just going to be painful for you to watch.

Why would you do that? Yeah, to yourself. You're not going to see anything you like. Yeah. So I was just like, when else am I going to get another opportunity to, like, see if the way he was with me was the way he actually is or, like, if he was putting on a front or whatever. So it was a very busy bar. He didn't see me. Yeah, he definitely didn't see you.

He definitely would have brought that up to us. Totally. What did you see? He was, like, smiling at her, and it seemed like they were connecting, like, just as well as he connected with me. And, like, after a while, he, like, put his hands. on her leg and like after they left and maybe kind of follow them a little bit. No. No. Okay.

She's already this far down. Might as well keep seeing it. No. You followed them down the street? I mean, not like down the street. Like they left, so I left and I was able to like watch where they went. And they only went like half a block and there was like a flower bender there. And he bought her a flower and he kissed her cheeks. Oh, man.

Why would you watch this? You went straight PI. Private investigator. Are you sure you didn't misread that as a rejection flower? Like this was a nice date. Here you go. It's our last one. Goodbye forever.

No, it was actually like really sweet. But it just felt like he was really, really liking her. And so when he texted me later, he was like, oh, I was thinking about you the whole time. And like that just felt disingenuous. It didn't look like he was thinking about anything other than that date that he was on. You can't look like something, though, right? Like, maybe he was putting effort in and trying on the day, but that doesn't mean he wasn't thinking about you.

He called us. Yeah. He was probably imagining that she was you. That's weird, too. So, in a way, he gave you a flower. Yes. And he kissed you. That was a practice.

I don't like that. That's creepy. Okay, I don't know. Forget that I say that. I'm just trying to guess because, look, the whole reason that we're doing this. Who's listening in on who now? Maybe they're equal now. Good point, bro.

He's the one that wanted us to call you because he felt that strongly about your connection, and he's actually on the other line right now secretly spying in on this conversation, just like you did. Yes, he can't get upset. Hey, so, all right, I guess, hi. Noah, what are you doing? Look, I was just trying to get in touch with you because I just wanted to know what happened. and like, I'm really sorry to do this,

but I do have to kind of come clean on the whole situation. Wait, what? Wait, what? Well, all of those things that she described did happen, but, like, I didn't have a second date with her. I asked her out for a second date, and she turned me down. Why would you ask her out again, bro? What?

And why would you admit that? Wait, why I'm saying that right now? Was this your first thing ever? So the only reason you're calling Chloe is because the girl you were actually interested in, rejected you? Yes, Brooke. No, honestly, I would have been okay with either one of them, actually. Oh, why are you?

I can make a girl feel special, Noah. You know, I love the other girls on the line, too, listening to this. I've heard that in a rom-com movie once, though. I think it worked. Cloney, are you there? Yeah, I'm here. Oh, my God, we were doubting that you were reading his date, right? Oh, God.

I know what I'm talking about. Dude, so, be honest. If the other girl would have said yes to a date, would you even be on the phone us right now hunting her down? Maybe. I don't know. Hard to speak hypothetically like that. You told us the entire time you were hanging out with the other girl,

Chloe was the only person on your mind. That's what you told us. And her. Yeah. Yeah. I told you that text was disingenuous. Oh. No, no, it wasn't disingenuous because she had ditched me by that point.

That's why. Wow. Wow. Okay. So he really, really was lonely. It's revisionist. as a positive to you, he hasn't brought up you stalking him once as a red flag. Yeah.

Actually, to tell you the truth, I thought that was kind of hot. Nobody's done that to me before. That's so crazy. Why would you want somebody following you? You weirdo? She's arguing against yourself. Yeah, she's like, look, I'm weird. What are you doing?

Don't like me when I'm like that. Like me when I'm normal. I can't tell if you guys would actually be a really good match or a total nightmare together. They'd be a good match. If none of this would have happened and you guys are just going off your personalities. I agree. We would make a great match because I'm not with that girl anymore. She rejected.

Okay. You got to leave it in the past. It's done. Stop bringing it up. Nobody wants me. Why don't you want to go out? I don't know how else I can make it clear that I'm not dating anybody else. You know, we got it.

All you have to do is focus on Chloe going forward if she's even willing to give you a chance here. Come on, Chloe. And I'm going to go ahead and ask her, whether it's a good idea or not, because Chloe, we would like to offer to send you out with Noah one more time, and we would pay for that date if you're willing. To be honest, I really did like him, but I'm nobody's second choice.

Now you're not. You're not my second choice. You're my only choice. That was all those sweet. I think it sounded more romantic in your head, Noah. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Say hello to your. new favorite drinks. Introducing new

I don't think any man in the history of this segment has ever made himself look less attractive to an entire gender than what we just witnessed there. We tried to take his shovel away, but he kept on digging the hole deeper and deeper for himself.

Like literally could have called us back and go, hey, I just wanted to clarify that I was rejected. Yeah. I'm single. I'm single. I know this is a hard concept for a lot of men to grasp, but sometimes the best thing you could say is nothing. Yeah. Just shut up. Take the phrase, you're my only option out of your dating lexicon.

Because it turns out nobody finds that romantic. No, no. And that actually doesn't matter about gender. Yeah, that applies to all. Just don't say it. Yeah. Well, except for one person. Well, us.

Yeah. If we're your only option to help with your dating life, we are flattered. Yes, call us. Call us. Email us. Email the show and we will call that person who is not calling you back. You're our only option, too.
