Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. You know, my childhood best friend was named Louis. Oh, I like that name, Jeff. Me too. Till one day when we were playing Ninja Turtles and Lewis wanted Donatello to use the twin katanas. And I told him, no, Leonardo has the katanas. Donatello has the big wooden stick.

Of course you would have an argument. So naturally I called the cops. And long story short, wasn't allowed to play at Louis' house anymore. Oh, okay. But imagine my surprise when I opened up my email this morning and saw Louis emailed the show for help. Did he come crawling back to you, Jeff? Did you just get out of prison, Louis? Louis, you finally ready to apologize and admit you were wrong, or is this a different Lewis?

I swear I would never mix up what weapons the turtles have. Thank you for saying that, Lewis. We don't mess with that. That's right. Why can't they interchange them, though? I mean, like, they've done all this training. Brooke, get out of the studio. You ask dumb questions like that.

Each turtle is trained for each weapon, Brooke. You dedicate your life to a weapon. You don't just give it to someone else, Brooke. God, now we've got all the time we've wasted explaining the Ninja Turtles to Brooke over here. Meanwhile, we don't get to hear anything about Louis' date. Louis, I am sorry for Brooke. Did you go out with someone who was a turtle lover, apparently? I wish.

Oh, okay. It would have been easier. what do we know about the person you went out with what's her name her name is jamie okay so we met online beautiful profile picture uh oh so we've been doing this lately with all of the people who match through like an app or something can you pull up her profile uh yeah yeah did we ever get word on if people enjoyed us doing this or not i mean we asked i'm gonna say that i enjoy it so i mean it's not hurting yeah it does make it feel like we're part of like the online date experience with them yeah are we gonna swipe right yeah exactly he already did well would we do the same? Read some of the stuff that's on Jamie's profile for us, Lewis.

Yeah, so Jamie says she's 5'3". She's got long brown hair. She talks about being in a dance class, which is great. What kind of dance? I don't know. But she is in shape. I like to work out as well. Were all those things true when you met up with her?

Was her hair long and brown? Was she dancing? Could she dance? She was 5'3". Did you pull out the ruler just to make sure? You're 5'4". Maybe just a measuring app on your phone. You said the point.

Could you stand back a little bit further? Okay. All that stuff matched up. She has a dog. I have a dog. That was all great. That's cute. She has listed on here Myers-Briggs FPW.

Oh, gosh. Myers-Briggs. What? The Myers-Briggs personality test. It tells you what type of person you are. Oh, boring. I can't remember all the different combinations, but there's a bunch of different combinations you can be.

Oh, interesting. Okay, that is interesting. So yeah, I swiped and we met up and planned a date. What was it like the first time you guys saw each other? We hit it off. We got along really well. We had planned to grab a drink or two and then we were going to go on a ghost tour. Oh, that's fun.

Tell us about the ghost tour. What was that about? I've never been on one with a date before. I've been on a couple with friends, but I thought, oh fun and like she gets scared like you've taken multiple ghost tours in your life come on why not okay so it was your idea was she into it she was totally into it yeah she said that sounded great so i bought the tickets then we were going to meet up at the pickup spot for uh the little bus ghost bus that sounds fun yeah what was the highlight of that for you and her like where you made a connection brooke wants to know if you did drugs on the

like did it get spooky or anything on the tour i want to know yeah was there like any like hugging or something i don't know like she got scared and jumped into your arms i would love to say that that was the case, but we didn't end up going on the ghost tour. Oh. Oh.

Oh, no. How come? Why? So like three quarters of the way through the drinks, ghost tour starts in like 20 minutes. And Jamie's like,

hey, you know what would be really fun? Let's go see a movie across the street instead. What? Yo. I already paid for the ghost tour tickets.

Also, who wants to go see a movie last night? And I didn't want to be a d*** and be like, well, I already paid. Like, no. So I was like, maybe she's afraid. I don't know. I didn't want to push back too much. That's considerate.

No. I would have pulled a Lewis move and called the cops on her right there. So did you go to the movie instead? Yeah, we went to the the movie and the movie was fine there's no ghost tour though no yeah it was you know two hours of us just sitting in the dark and i didn't want to like hold hands like we weren't right at that point yet right because you'd only had two drinks or a drink beforehand right so exactly yeah so movie was fine and then

the end of the night was just kind of awkward because it was like all right thanks for good night i will talk soon oh the whole time i'm just like man i wish we would have gone on the ghost tour right because that's like an experience it's something you can share together so since then she'll respond to my text with like a couple words not really a lot of punctuation, and has been very noncommittal to hang on again, and I cannot figure it out. You don't have any idea? I have no idea.

There are no red flags that I can think of. So she only drinks one drink. She changes the date right in the middle of it and doesn't call you back. It's questionable if she even knows who the Ninja Turtles are. Why do you want to go out with her again? Yeah, I was wondering that. Is she really hot? She is very hot.

We clicked on all other levels, and I'm just like, I do something? Or maybe there's something else I totally missed. Dude, maybe her ex-boyfriend is a ghost, and she's scared she's going to run into him. That's the best theory that we have so far. But we're going to try and confirm it when we play a song, come back and get your second date update right after this. All right, Lewis? Cool.

Thank you. Hold on. Second date update. You know who says no to a ghost tour? Who? A real life ghost. Oh, wait a minute. Doesn't want I probably... A real life ghost. Oh. Oh, wait a minute.

Doesn't want to be found out on the tour. Another theory, perhaps? Because in the middle of Louis' date, Jamie said, nah, let's not do the ghost tour that you planned and already paid for. Let's instead do a movie and then I'll ghost you. Yeah. Oh. And that's what happened.

But here's the thing is that Jamie is hot. So Louis can't just let it go. He wants answers. Brooke, is that okay with you? Yeah, I'm fine with it. I mean, I think it's weird that you would cancel a ghost tour. Did she know that you had already had the tickets? I just think that's kind of rude.

I mean, we had a plan. I don't actually know if she knew i had the ticket oh okay that makes a difference see that's why you gotta pull them out and wave them in front of her face so that she knows that they're real it's probably just my mistake just an email or a code on her his phone yeah well something show her the evidence i was imagining them on the ghost tour and then he's like oh my date is getting scared. And then everyone looks at him and goes, what date? And it's like, oh, she's a ghost. Oh, because she's a ghost.

That would have been a cool moment, but they never went on that tour, so it never happened. But maybe we can send you out on another ghost tour if we get her on the phone here. Are you ready to do this? Yeah, let's go for it. Let's find out if she's real or not. I'm dialing the number right now. I think she real i think ghost can answer phones we'll see here we

go she's in the phone line hello ghosty no she would have said hello maybe it's just a bad phone connection is this is this jam, yes, this is Jamie. Hey, Jamie, what's up? You're on the radio right now with Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Hey, good morning. Hi. Yeah, cool. Do you listen?

Did I win something? A lot of people ask that. I like people's positive attitudes towards life. We give a lot of stuff away, guys. We don't usually call them up and just give things out for free. Also true. But we do have something that we want to give to you potentially another date with someone that you went out with before named lewis oh oh wait a minute obviously we're doing a second date update with you here jamie and we're trying to figure out what happened, what went wrong on your date with Louis.

Well, very, very simple. We just are in a match. Oh. That's it. That's it? Is it something that's really obvious that he should know? Yeah, I mean, I thought we were a match, you know, based on his dating profile, but I think, you know,

he might have stretched the truth a little bit. Oh. Oh. Okay, you mean like he lied about his height or his weight or something or used an old photo? Oh, yeah. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, nothing like that. The thing is, like, I thought we were both ENFPs, and it turns out that he's actually an ENFJ. Oh, wait, wait, wait.

Say that again. What did you say? He's a what? She's talking about that. He's an ENFJ. So are you talking about that Fort's an enfj so are you talking about that fort i don't know what is it the briggs personality test is that what you're talking about yeah myer briggs we don't know what the letters stand for oh my goodness okay well you guys gotta

do it because i mean it's a personality test right and he has been tested like forever is so incredibly accurate and it's basically designed to identify a person's strengths and preferences, right? Yeah. Okay. And it's huge in psychology. Like all of my friends do it. It's awesome. Do you work in psychology?

No, no, no, no. But I mean, everybody puts it on the dating apps. I mean, I'm on dating apps. Alexis, you put it on your dating app? Maybe I just didn't understand what it was. I've never seen it. That's why you're single then. I didn't put JFB or whatever it is.

So we'll find the man of your dreams if you put it on your dating app. Okay. What's your personality type? I am an ENFP. That stands for? ENFP. Yeah. So basically, I am an extrovert.

Uh-huh. Oh, that's an E. Okay, that's an E. The N stands for intuitive. Intuitive, perfect. The F for feeling and the P for perceiving. Okay, so. Okay.

All right. Wow. I'm just switching over to another radio station, getting a breakdown of personalities. I know. I tried to hide my yawn. So she's an extroverted emotional person is what i heard well perceiving yeah i mean i'm very intuitive and i'm very yes so did you have to take a test to find that out i don't know so why doesn't that work with him because he's an

enfj what's a j so because he's a J, which is judgmental, you know, they're structured like they're they're structured in a way that they're not flexible. Wait, what are you talking about? He's not flexible. He told us that you switch the date plans in the middle of the day and he was cool enough to like go along with it. I was testing him because I thought he was a P and I thought the reaction I was expecting was like, oh yeah,

sure. Let's do it. Like, you know, be excited about it. And instead he was like pushing back. And that's when I realized he's definitely a J. Well,

he's probably pushing back because he paid money already to go on this ghost tour that he talked about you with. And his idea was more fun. Well, it doesn't matter how much money he paid. The point is it was just a test to see how flexible he was and he wasn't. So he failed the test. Sorry. Okay. Well, it doesn't matter how much money he paid. The point is, it was just a test to see how flexible he was. And he wasn't. So he failed the test.

Sorry. Okay. Well, let's do a test and find out what happens when you put an ENFP with an ENFJ. And you get a WTF? The BNJ. That's our show. There we go. I can follow now.

All right. We've lost our last listener officially. But hopefully we got Louis on the line. Louis, you there? Yeah, I'm here. Ooh, I hope you BYOB'd, brother. Bring your own beer? Yeah, because this is going to be bumpy ride.

I'm just trying to join in. I don't know. I don't really know what's going on. How do you feel about being called a J? I am angry. I'm a little angry. Oh, you're angry. Yeah.

We went out on a date and you decided to test me. Oh, that's what you're angry about. That is a little. Well, I mean, yeah. Why wait? You know, if I'm in this to get somebody, I'm not going to be waiting and see what happens. Get somebody. Just test you right off the bat and see if we're compatible.

If we're not, then we move on with their separate lives and that's it wow you're telling me that i'm the judging person you are acting kind of jay about his unwillingness to change i'm very perceptive though like how he is so that's why i had a feeling that he was a day and that's why i said to him but you're being judgmental about him now for not doing what you wanted to do. Yeah, you were being J about his P being J. I think more than anything, like, do you really want to be with someone

who's exactly the same as you? Well, that's what the whole test is about, is to find a perfect match. And if he is a J and I'm a P, we're not a match. But I don't think, like, I mean, if it was as easy as science, right, like we all would have, no one would be single. You would have been able to put your name into an algorithm and found the perfect person.

Not everybody's doing the test, though. I know, but I just think you may be missing out. Do you know how many single people are here that don't know anything about the tests or, like, don't understand what is going on here? Yeah, someone asked me what my love language was, and I was like, English. I don't know what that is either. I'm here to tell them this is what they need to do. You're just so hard up on this test.

I just think you may be passing on great people. He seems like a good dude. Spoken like a giant bee. Wait a minute. Just single love. That stands for Brooke,. Spoken like a giant bee. Wait a minute. Just single-minded. That stands for Brooke, right? EFB. Okay.

Whatever it is. I'm just saying, me and Brooke. I think it's bountiful. Look, Jamie clearly knows exactly what she wants from a guy. Like, that's what she wants. And just because, Brooke, you're not a fan personally of the test doesn't mean that it doesn't work. Well, I just want them to be more open. I'm just, I'm rooting for Louis here, man.

I'm just trying to get him a second chance, Jeffrey. Isn't that what we're supposed to be doing? Louis, can you change your personality to fit into Jamie's lifestyle? Yeah, let me just get right to that. Okay, great. Because once you do, once you finally switch over that J to a P, then we can send you guys out on a date and we'll pay for it. Yeah. You know what, I personally

think we're just done with the acronyms. I would be fine if I never heard another one. You want us to STFU. I get it. I'm all in with him on that one. Well, looks like we're not going to be able to send you guys out on a date. No, he has spoken like a true INFJ now.

Oh, burn! Wait, what's the I for? I don't know. It sounded like a burn, though. Figure it out. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. I get a lot of people texting into 78592 saying Myers-Briggs is the best tool for helping you. Not just with your relationships, but with your friendships, your work life.

It actually helps you find a balance. Has anyone in this room done it? Never. I thought Myers-Briggs was like a paint company. Yeah, it does sound like it. I have no idea what you're talking about. I mean, talking about it sounds like talking about paint. Does it take a long time to do?

I actually went online to try to test myself. After an hour of answering questions I'm almost 10% Obviously told us everyone in this room is impatient I can't wait to find out which four letters I am But you know, I think she will find somebody out there. That's her perfect letter combo. Sure. Let's hope for her.

It's a real sterile way to find a match, but okay. Good luck. A lot of people are using it, Brooke, so we can't hate on everybody. And a lot of people are still single. But if you don't want to be single anymore, we might be able to help you with that. Email the show.

We'll call the person who wasn't calling you back. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Ugh, 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 this year and find them on Bumble.
