Man, who knew people loved hearing other people's dating fails so much?
Seriously.
And it's really a universal language.
Yeah.
I mean, honestly, it is all over the globe right now.
What do you mean?
Well, we're getting comments.
One from Austin Mason that says, shout out from Canada.
Hey.
Kizo wrote us and said, shout out from
Tanzania, which is amazing.
Hey, cool. And then
exhausted is the handle. Shout
out from South Africa. Wow.
Just getting shouted at by people all over
the world. It's like a United Nations meeting.
Another one from Serbia.
Isn't that great? I think that's so cool.
Let's get all the continents in on the action as we count down our top ten second date updates.
We're at number six in the countdown today, which is titled No Fun Top Gun.
Ooh.
So enjoy.
Second date update.
When you go on a first date to a restaurant or a bar,
you ever think about how there's probably other couples who are also having first dates at the exact same time right next to you?
I don't.
That's weird.
That's really a bonding thought.
Yeah.
You know?
You're not alone.
I don't think of it as bonding.
Like, I don't want to be out-romanced by somebody else in there.
I thought it was a comforting thing.
No.
Other people were in the same awkward position. It's a competition.
It's not a good look on me. That's why
I always buy flowers and cake
for every woman in the bar.
To prove
I'm the alpha lover of this
sizzler. Oh, you just set the tone, Jack.
I think you just got taken advantage of,
but I appreciate the cake. But one of our
listeners, Cameron, says he definitely
got one-upped by another dude on his date and he was actually cool with it okay so cameron i guess
you're at that sizzler huh i'm sorry man yeah i guess so yeah did your date fall hard for jeffrey
and you just had no control over the situation i mean that's the only explanation i guess yeah
yes i see i apologize already but
tell us about the woman that you went out with what's her name uh her name is lauren okay and
i'm guessing you met on a dating app or something we did okay what did you like
what did you like about her i mean she's really pretty and okay it happened really quick
asked her out pretty immediately. Okay.
Oh, wow.
Like second text message?
Like, hey, sup?
Want a date?
Yeah.
No, I wasn't really wasting any time here.
Wow.
You must be hot if that worked.
Appreciate the efficiency.
Yeah.
I mean, that's going into like the date with not a lot of knowledge, right?
You're pretty blind.
Yeah.
But it's good because, you know, I've had dates where I've talked with the girl online forever and then there's just nothing to talk about at dinner
yeah don't waste all the conversation up front i see what you're saying where did you end up
going for your date well i took her to a hangar where i fly planes
he was coming out of the gate with a flex, huh? Oh, my gosh.
You're a pilot?
You fly planes, bro?
Yeah, so I made a point of making my profile pic of me in a plane cockpit because I figured
that was it.
Oh, that's cool.
That's why she went out with you immediately.
My head goes to free flights.
Free flights.
And he's rich if he's a pilot.
Well, do you own a plane or you share a plane with somebody?
So, not yet.
Okay.
I've been taking lessons. Oh,lexis has officially stopped listening to the conversation i already know people that
are pilots i don't need you anymore she's like you don't have your wings yet
okay so i mean what was the date plan at the hangar though you just walk around some planes
and look at them yeah so i mean i go to this flight school it's 30 minutes outside the city and i thought that would be a really cool first
date you know just super cool give her like exclusive access to an airfield that i can get
into and you know just look around look at the planes that's awesome was there any food involved
yeah peanuts brooke i mean we were planning to go to a bar afterwards, but, you know, I just wanted to show her my thing.
And, you know, she seemed interested.
Oh, so you didn't go flying.
You didn't like take her up in a plane?
No, I'm not allowed.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But that's cool, though.
I mean, it's cool that she was interested in it.
Was she impressed by the plane tour?
She was.
The weird thing is, when we got there there there were some huge letters on the runway it
spelled out will you marry me oh my gosh bro you're moving a little fast yeah no i didn't do
that i didn't do that are you sure because you asked her out second text message i could see
you immediately dude there was a marriage proposal at the same time for someone else that's why you
were one upped on the date yeah i mean it just proves my point that it's a romantic spot but no i mean yeah i mean it was
awkward for a while like just seeing the letters it's like wow you move quick did you guys actually
witness the couple there or did you just see the letters on the runway no no we didn't see the
couple uh we just saw the guy taking off but you said it was awkward like what do you mean it was
awkward for a minute just to see that it was awkward? For a minute, just
to see that, and, you know, she made a joke
about it, and, you know, we moved through it pretty quick, but...
Because it's got to be hard to witness somebody
do something ultra-romantic
right in front of you on your first date
and then have to try and come off looking smooth.
You should have done a sign that's, like, ready
to go to the bar now.
Attached it to a little
paper airplane
and tossed it in front of her.
But I mean,
it sounds like you were able
to make it work.
Did you end up going with her
to the bar?
Well, we did,
but it kind of died there.
Uh-oh.
Why?
While we were there,
we went into this whole
big romantic gesture and everything.
I think we're all kind of hyped up
on looking at planes and everything.
Yeah.
She really wanted to
go up in a plane.
She wanted me to take her up.
Wait, she knew that you didn't have your license yet, right?
I think she just thought we could sneak away with it and, you know, just have like this spontaneous romantic adventure in the sky.
What does this girl want, a death wish?
I know.
Like, I wouldn't meet some random dude who takes me out to a little airfield with some Cessnas and think, hey, pull me up in that plane. Well, it wasn't just that. She wanted to sit in the cockpit, too,
but I had to tell her no. Even just to take pictures, I'd want to do that. Right. That's
just getting experience, but it's more like an educational lesson, it seems like. Like,
that's an airplane, that's an airplane, that's another airplane. Okay, let's get out of here.
It's a good hook for a future date, though. It's like, well, if you stick around, then maybe I will be able to call you.
After what, hundreds of flight hours?
No.
I mean, it kind of paints you, too, as like you continually having to say no, no, no on a date that you're kind of like not fun.
Do you know what I mean?
And I don't think that of you, but I could see from her perspective.
I mean, I guess, but I'm at my flight school.
I didn't want to get dinged.
So I thought just showing her would be enough.
I mean, how did you leave it on the day?
How did it end?
The sparks kind of died down towards the end.
I mean, I still like her and I think we had a good time.
I just, you know, I don't know what else I could have done.
And she hasn't responded to you at all?
No.
Okay.
It's almost like it backfired.
Like you tried to impress her and
you ended up like killing sounds like maybe you should have stolen a plane and taken her up anyway
it would have been a rebel move bold thing to do but let's play a song come back and call
lauren for you try to get you a second date update. Alright. Okay, hold on.
Second date update.
Muscular dudes flying around in
F-16s. Yeah.
Buzzing the tower. Doing an
inverted dive against a Russian MiG
before jetting off into the sunset.
Whoa. I mean, close.
All of that was not
allowed on Cameron's first date.
He could just point
at the planes parked on the tarmac
and say, hey,
isn't that one kind of cool?
It's not mine, so let's move away from it.
I can't even show you inside.
That's because Cameron doesn't have
his pilot's license yet, but
he was able to show Lauren around the
airfield where he's learning.
Yeah, which is cool, and she was interested
in it. I mean, he told her that.
Yeah, but to make matters worse, while they were there,
they saw someone else proposing
with a giant Will You Marry Me
banner. And so after all
that excitement at the airfield, the date
kind of fizzled after that.
But Cameron, today,
we're going to be your goose
for this second date update.
We're going to pull him out of his nosedive?
Is that what you're thinking?
We're going to try.
Just please promise me
that you're not going to eject
until we hit the sweet spot.
Can you do that?
Because that didn't turn out so well for Goose.
That's really nice of you guys.
Wait, no spoilers.
What happened to Goose?
Yeah, I haven't seen it yet.
I haven't seen the new one.
No, that's the old one.
Oh, okay, okay, okay.
That was my joke.
Good thing we're all up on our Top Gun knowledge.
Yeah, whatever.
But bottom line is we're going to call Lauren and see if we can get you another date here.
You feel ready, man?
I'm ready.
Let's do it.
Okay.
And this next date, you know, you just make it a little bit more about her and maybe she'll be more into it.
Yeah, and we'll just hope that there's not a lot of turbulence okay i think there's more airplane puns coming yeah i'm trying
to hold them back i'm sorry let's dial this number and talk to lauren here we go
hello hey is this lauren yes lauren Hello?
Hey, is this Lauren?
Yeah, Lauren. Who's this?
Hey, my name's Jeff from a morning radio show called Brooke and Jeffrey in the Morning.
A morning radio show.
Yeah!
Hey, Lauren. We're all here.
Hey.
Good morning.
Sorry, did we wake you up?
No, I've actually just never heard of this show.
I don't know what's going on here.
Well, we're on Spotify, too, if you listen to podcasts.
That didn't sound really sad and desperate.
No.
But we're doing a segment, a very popular segment.
Very popular.
Extremely well-known and beloved called Second Date Update.
Okay.
Clearly not beloved by Lauren, but we're trying to help out one of our listeners that you went out with recently.
And who's that?
You guys went to an airfield together and then a bar.
Cameron.
I know exactly who you're talking about.
Cameron seemed like a nice guy, like a good dude who wanted to show you a good time.
A sexpot, if you ask me. That's the time that came to mind for me.
Just came out of nowhere.
What did you think of Cameron?
It was a cool date. Actually, it was the coolest date I've ever been on.
What?
It was. It was. I was really interested in the planes and seeing them and everything.
And I was really happy because we didn't just go to the bar and hook up because that's what most guys want to do.
So his date was really what most girls want to do.
Well, I mean, that's great to hear.
So, yeah, I mean, you weren't disappointed in the airfield at all because he was kind of worried about that, that maybe, you know, you expected to go up in a plane and you didn't or something.
No, but I was still excited to go.
That's what I like.
You know, airplanes are cool.
Guys, girls, kids, doesn't matter.
Airplanes are just interesting.
Absolutely.
So if this is one of the best dates that you've ever been on, why not call Cameron back?
Well, I said it was the most original date I've been on, and I liked his choice.
But some things happened.
He made a comment later on, and that threw me off.
One comment?
It doesn't seem like he remembers that.
I mean, do you think it registered with him that he said something that upset you?
Of course.
Can I tell you guys what he said?
Yes, please.
Because nothing's ringing a bell for us.
So I don't know if he told you there was this weird part where we saw a plane taking off.
And it was a proposal.
Yeah, he didn't tell us.
He mentioned that to us, the big will you marry me banner.
Yeah, and that was pretty weird.
But as the plane was taking off, it was the comment that he made that he expects the woman to ask him to marry him.
So I better be taking notes.
Was he serious or was he kidding?
That sounds like a joke.
No, I laughed.
He said he was a feminist, so he believes that women should be able to ask men to marry them.
Is that a bad thing?
Yeah, why is that bad?
Because maybe I'm more traditional, but in my dream the man is
supposed to propose to me like i thought maybe you know this could be a great dream if it turns
out good then he'll do that for me you know oh no you kind of took your dream away yeah
i mean as a first date like maybe he's just trying to read you as an independent woman and he thought
that that would be something that you would also stand behind.
You don't know for sure that he would never propose to you, right?
He's just making a simple comment.
He said for sure, you need to ask me to marry you.
Wow.
Even if it was a woman coming to a man, it would be a strange comment on a first date.
It's true.
On the first date. We didn't know that any of that was coming up in conversation between you guys.
He didn't mention it.
But maybe we should ask him about it.
Because, I mean, I don't know what your dreams say about your perfect man.
Maybe you're dreaming that he's on the other line listening.
Is that a dream?
Well, dreams do come true because Cameron's been there the whole time and wants to talk to you.
Yeah. I didn't realize that would set you off. Dreams do come true because Cameron's been there the whole time and wants to talk to you.
Yeah.
I didn't realize that set you off.
Really?
What?
What do you mean you don't realize that set me off?
Cameron, you're a madman.
A madman?
What does that mean?
On the first date, why would you say I need to ask you to marry me?
Why would you?
I'm letting you know that I'm a feminist and I'm into the cause and into the cause and whatever and you know i just want you to know that up front you know i want you to know that you know you have i believe you have you know agency and i
think assertive women are sexy and okay but so cameron you believe that all women should be
proposing to men or just lauren to you, I think all women should be doing that.
I want to just empower women to propose.
I think it's going to be healthier for our society.
Is this so you don't have to pay for a ring?
I don't because I get what you're trying to say
and I appreciate any man who is open to the feminism.
Don't listen to her.
She's not a feminist.
But you'd be open if the woman wanted you to propose you would be open to
then taking on that role right i mean i could but i you know i'd find a way to screw it up you know
i'd put like a ring on a kfc chicken wing or something you know what i mean like
guys are just like not good at that i think you know my mom proposed to my dad and it was really
romantic okay so you want you want what your parents have
in a relationship you want to marry your mom i'm having this conversation before it's always mixed
some guys are all about it and other guys are like no i want to ask like traditionally so maybe
it's just kind of a more of a surprise to her yeah i mean lauren is this a first for you have you have you never met a guy like this this this is a first and only and a one and done oh
it's that much of a deal breaker for you a deal breaker completely like especially after i saw
that romantic couple going i wanted that immediately and he immediately like crushed
my dream with that.
It's so you don't bring up marriage on a first date.
Never do that. Well, we're coming in for a rough landing here, but I've got to ask before we crash.
There was turbulence.
Lauren, we'd like to offer to send you out on another date with Cameron,
and we'll let you pay it as a feminist.
No, we won't even offer.
Yeah, that's what a good feminist man would do.
You guys are really,
I think we need to do some more research into feminism.
Yeah, I don't know a lot about it.
I think you need to broadcast a bit.
Honestly, Lauren, I do think I know your answer,
but I need to hear it from you.
It's a very strong no from me, guys.
Oh, boy.
That's all right.
I mean, Cameron, you can't be too disappointed.
She doesn't seem like the right person for you.
I guess not.
I mean, she is making her own choice, and, you know, I'm all for that.
Hey!
I love this. I think that's sexy.
If she wants to set women back another 50 years by not proposing, then that's good for her.
Exactly.
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.
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.
Someone else will too. Be more you know what? We love that for you. Someone else will, too.
Be more you this year and find them on Bumble.
