Brooke and Jeffrey Now they understand What we were talking about Let's get to what you came for It's your second date Second date update I've always thought Whoa

Did you? You always thought Someday I'd be 13 Puberty's gonna get me one day One day There it is There it is, buddy. You always thought someday I'd be 13. Puberty's going to get me one day. There it is. There it is, buddy. Congratulations. I've always thought that the airline commercials are doing it all wrong.

Why? You know, instead of talking about how comfortable their seats are or how helpful their flight attendants can be. Yeah, which is true. They should advertise all the hot action that you can get while at the airport. Oh, what? They should advertise all the hot action that you can get while at the airport. I think. What?

And I'm not just talking about the massage tables where I was recently arrested. Yeah. What? You can't do that at those massage tables. The lady didn't ask if I was a real masseuse. I just went for it. You were giving them a. Oh. I'm a giver.

You know that about me. No massage list now. But just think. Hundreds of thousands of people go through those terminals every single day. At least a handful of them have to be cute. And that's how one of our listeners, Logan, met someone recently. One of the handful of cute people strolling through the airport. Logan, welcome to the show.

Hey, guys. Oh, my God. Was she in TSA or what happened? You like a lady in uniform? Is that what you're wondering, Jose? I'm always like, whoops, you need to search me? Because I'm willing. I did not get frisked.

Okay. No, you were actually in the airport or you were on the plane? No, I was waiting by the gate. Oh, yeah. Oh, that makes sense. And you're both leaving the same city. So chances are good that you guys are from the same place. And who'd you meet?

Exactly. So I see her and I quickly took inventory of my environment. I was like, oh, there she is. Six o'clock. Got it. Moved a couple of times. Got to where I was sitting right next to her. So they announced over the speaker that there's going to be a four-hour delay.

Oh, my God. Oh, God. The plane didn't come in. You're the only person excited. This is my window. This is it. You know, I immediately, I could hear her

mumbling under her breath, like, how unbelievable. And I was like, man, I tell you, these airlines are getting to be a real plane in the neck. Oh.

Hey. Pocket dad joke, just gambled with it. She ended up laughing really hard. You're saying the joke landed? Yeah, bingo. We understand each other, Logan. So she liked the humor. What happened after that? So she's like, I don't know how I'm going to kill four hours.

And I was like, well, I got a great idea. What we can do is we can head right over to that bar where I'm going to buy you a drink. Oh. There we go. Wow. I like that better. Absolutely, bro. Dude, smooth, my friend.

I went right in with the card, you know. I'm like, hey, pair of aces, here we go. Atta boy. I'm funny and an alcoholic. You, it's your lucky day. Well, it's an airport. You can drink at any time of the day whenever you want. Absolutely.

That's true. Oh, yeah. It doesn't count when you're at the airport. No, it doesn't. Alcoholism doesn't exist. Oh, my God. I bet she's still laughing, too, right? Because it's so cheesy.

Yeah. No, we're having a great time. You know, I'm throwing out some questionable jokes here and there. Like, she had a book that was in her bag that she moved out. And I was like, oh, you you read you can't read but she laughed and she's like yeah to you and i'm like no not not really you know not well yeah not too well oh so you guys are really hitting it off yeah we're going back and forth before i knew it four Four hours just flew by. Yeah. You didn't say that on purpose. We're going to hit our 10-pun quota.

That wasn't, I swear that wasn't on purpose. Okay, okay. That's natural, man. All right. We got to keep our seats in the upright position for this guy. That's a long time to be spending with somebody one-on-one time four whole hours at the airport bar. Yeah, that is true. Yeah, yeah, absolutely.

I considered it like a little first date. Absolutely, I would too. So what were the odds that you two sat next to each other on the flight? Probably like zero, right? Yeah, we didn't get a chance to do that. We were kind of near each other, and there were definitely glances and looks. Yeah, no, totally.

So when we get, you know, arrival, yay, okay, so nice to meet you. Oh, we'll, you know, give you a call. Oh, for sure. You know, maybe some, some dinner. You're the first one that's role played. We're doing, we're doing a little bit of the nice pleasantry goodbye. And then of course, the reason I'm on the phone with you guys, I reach out, text a couple of times, even a little phone call, nothing in response. She's a hottie.

I'm thinking, was she on her little, I'm not at home, I'm not in my own city. I can flirt around with a guy, but maybe I'm in a relationship. How long has it been? It's been a couple of weeks here. You hung out with her for four hours and you didn't get a read on whether or not she was single? My read was that she was single and that she was available and that she was having a great time with me. I'm just thinking, you know what? I can imagine her acting that way, feeling like no strings attached.

I mean, maybe it was just that, not to be mean, but maybe she was just bored. Yeah. Maybe you were reading more into the dating aspect of it than she was. Hey, she was cackling. Her laughter hit a certain note. Okay. There was a tonality to the laughter that said, I like you. You two obviously didn't kiss or anything, right? Because that would have been a big green flag.

Yeah. No, I didn't get to that. Okay. Okay. That would have been strange. I thought green flag yeah um no i didn't i didn't get to that okay okay that would have been strange i thought green flag was like an airplane pun but i guess it's not no no that would be they're just rare oh yeah i see they don't use flags they use a little poles that light up remember that baton i feel like we can't go to the song until we get just one more airline pun i think we can i think we can go let's just take off and get right over to the song until we get just one more airline pun. No. I think we can. I think we can go straight to the song. Let's just take off and get right over to the other side.

Yay! Brooke did it! No, that was bad. We'll settle for that one. Anyway, we'll get you a second date update and figure out where the turbulence was in this relationship. That's how it's done like a pro. Pay attention.

Second date update next. Second date update next second date update you know 99 of the time your evening would be completely ruined if your plane was held up for over four hours that's a good point totally maybe the whole trip yeah but for one of our listeners logan that wasn't a flight delay that was a flight de yay. I feel like some airline is going to try to market that and I'm going to hate you for it. Because if a flight attendant

comes up and says that, I will kill someone. We're on a little bit of a de yay. Yeah, it's just a flight de yay. We should trademark that. But no, Logan got to spend all that extra time over at the airport bar with a hottie from his flight named Ellie. And the two of them were vibing.

She was loving his airplane puns. Oh, my God. And he kept them coming. Yeah. Even his jokes about being potentially illiterate. She ate it all up. It's magic happening. But once the plane boarded, after that, she's been kind of hard to reach, even harder to lock down a date with.

Hopefully, though, she answers the phone here and we can actually get you another meetup. Logan, how you feeling, man? I'm feeling like you guys are going to bring me home. Like this chick now. Now, keep in mind, this was not a regular girl. This is definitely a hot, hot girl. Okay. Like a model. I'm not a regular girl. This is definitely a hot, hot girl. Okay. Again, like...

Like a model. I'm nervous. You mean to say she was beautiful and her personality really shined. Bingo. Exactly. Okay. Nice, Brooke. Way to set it up.

Good save. All right. It was a whole package. You know, like you go on dating apps and you kind of see the leftovers or whatever's there. Leftovers. My God. She's the main course. Yeah.

Got you. Logan, just let us do the talking here. Yeah. Got it. We're going to dial her number right now. We're trying to do a second date update. Here we go. Hello?

Hey, is this Ellie? It is, yeah. Ellie. What's up? You get a yeah. Ellie, what's up? You get a lot of calls from morning radio shows? Uh, no. Oh my gosh. Are you guys really, are you really telling the truth?

Are you really a radio show, morning show? Yes, we are. Is that exciting to you? Yes, yes, yes, yes. This is going to be easy. Got some good news because I'm reaching out to you specifically because we've been talking actually about you all morning long. Is it good?

I hope it's good. Like, why would you be talking about me? Really good. Oh, yeah. We have somebody who's been gushing about you a little bit on our show. Who? Like, okay, first of all, is it like one of those shows, like the dating show thingy?

Because I love those so much. It is. Oh. The dating thingy because i love those so much it is oh the dating thingy yeah no okay okay okay okay okay okay who's been talking about you're a lot of energy and that's a good thing it's surprising to me so excited when we call you went out with somebody recently you know how these datey thingy segments work and uh they had a good time you probably know who i'm referring to are you guys talking about mike because uh he did go out yeah mike yeah well uh that's who what are you doing hold on uh mike said some really great stuff about you. Yeah. He mentioned you being very pretty.

Yes. That's so nice. Yeah. Brooke, what else did Mike say? Mike. Yeah, Brooke. Our listener. Yes, Mike.

Okay. He said you had a sparkling personality. Oh, sparkling. Yes. Thank you. That's a key word. Yes. Did you shout that about me?

No, that's so great. Oh, yeah. Thank you. Did you shout that about me? No, that's so great. Oh, yeah. I mean, I sense the vibes happening even before we called you. How is that even possible? I just had a sixth or seventh sense about this. So many senses that I'm having. Why are we being so weird? Well, I'm just, let's, maybe we should pivot here and ask you, Ellie, what did you think

about Mike? Like, what stood out to you? You know how, like, you have, like, this vision of a guy that you want to take home to your parents? Oh, absolutely. The guy that you kind of just talk to your girlfriends about in elementary school, like the guy that I want to marry. This was like him.

He was amazing. He was funny. So funny, you guys. He wasn't that great, was he? Marriage? Yeah, he was great. No, he was amazing he was funny so funny you guys he wasn't that great was he marriage yeah he was great no he was really great and he was like he was tall and he was charming yeah i mean we don't have to gosh we don't have to gosh too much about mike i mean we all don't get me wrong we all love mike who doesn't and the fact that he is asking about me makes it even like it's made my day yeah because i mean he wasn't hitting you

up and now he is yeah well i mean i'm just just based on your your sparkling personality and and just talking to you a little bit you sound like you're a really fun time and i'm guessing you probably get hit on a lot you know it sounds so like conceited to say yes i do but yes i do that's okay you can you can own that i think that's fine it probably happens on the phone yeah with girls like that it probably happens to it like random places like when you're at the dry cleaners or like you know during a delay at the airport okay so the other day i'm flying out of the airport, and, like, the flight was delayed, like, some stupid, like, four hours. Oh, really?

Yeah. It was horrible. And this guy, like, sitting next to me, he, like, starts talking to me, and he's making the stupidest jokes ever. He was so dumb. Oh. Oh, no. And then he's like, hey, do you want to go to the bar and get some drinks? I'm like, crap, I've got four hours to kill.

Why not? So, you know, we talked and whatever. And I just, but you know what? He paid for the, you know, drinks, which was really nice, actually. Very nice. That is overwhelming. I thought that guy was pretty funny, though. Don't you think he was kind of funny?

I think he thought he was funnier than he actually was. Oh, ouch. I mean, that hurt me. But he paid for the check and he didn't even tip. I mean, he was a bad tipper. Oh, he didn't tip? What? Okay.

Oh, that does not look good. Yeah. Yeah. No, no, no, no. Mike actually sounds great. Yeah. So wait, like, is he on the phone right now? Is Mike on the phone?

Well, someone is on the phone. This is a bad idea. You guys, I'm really confused what is happening. Yeah, so actually the guy that you were referring to from the airport. The one with the bad jokes, yes. Okay, we don't need to say that. So he's actually the one that called us to get a second date update with you. No.

Yeah, Logan is his name um he's on the other line listening right now logan yeah no that was a lot that was more than what i expected to hear that's for sure you guys no he's on the phone that's not fair yeah no i'm here like you can talk directly to me actually hi um so I'm not a tipper. I actually left cash. I didn't tip on my credit card. I left cash because that's not the polite thing to do. And I bought Ellie three drinks.

One of them was a double. And I also provided fries with extra sauces that also cost extra money. I think she remembers. I know. He's just trying to save his own ego here. It's okay. I think that he should get that opportunity. Yeah, but Logan,

we don't need a breakdown of the bill at dinner. It's just funny to me that she was laughing so heartily and then mocked me later. But at the time when she's getting free drinks, I'm the most hilarious guy in the world. Oh, yeah. Girls do that.

I mean, we're surprised puns weren't funny. Just asking. Yeah. You know, actually, they weren't funny. But, you know, you kept buying me drinks. I said, it's a real plane in the neck with these airlines. That's legit funny. We heard that one already.

I think it's fine. We laughed. Ellie has a different sense of humor. I mean, maybe that doesn't match well. Most hot girls. I mean, she seems to be more on to Mike's type of sense of humor. Can we stop talking about Mike for a second? Honestly, please stop talking about Mike for a second.

I'm so sorry, Logan. No. I honestly thought that maybe I forgot Logan's name. His name was Mike when you started talking about him. Like, that's what I was hoping was happening. Not memorable, Brooke? I just, I wanted Logan to be Mike for you and for

Logan. Both of you. So hold on, hold on, hold on. I'm gathering that everybody on this phone call is interested in Mike, but nobody's interested in me. No, bro. I'm team Logan. Get you a Logan,. No, bro. I'm Team Logan. Get you a Logan, ladies. Thank you.

I'm kind of coming over to Mike's side. Come on, guys. He sounds pretty fucking charming. Not you. It's the puns. Mike, Mike, Mike, Mike. No, no, no. It's Logan.

Logan is the guy that's on the phone, and he's the one that we'd like to send you out on another date with, and we'll pay for that date, and we'll throw in a generous tip on top of it. Hey! Hey, and think about it. He really did tip. You thought that he didn't. He tried to be funny, which is meaning he put effort forth.

Hey, effort is good. I think he deserves another shot. I'm with Brooke. You know what? He was nice enough at the bar, but you know what happens when you drink. You have those rose-colored glasses on. I think that's what's happening.

Oh! Never insulting his boss. Okay. That is insult to injury. I guess the silver lining is we've learned there is a person out there for everyone. And that person for everyone is Mike. We love you, Mike.

Call into the show. Whoever you are, you're dreaming me, guys. We want to meet you. Brash and burn, I got it. Brooke and Jeffrey in the show. Whoever you are, you're dreaming, you guys. We want to meet you. Brash and burn, I got it. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. You know, we never asked, but I'm just assuming Ellie hooked up with Mike. Oh, you think that they hooked up?

Oh, I mean, just from the sound of her voice. Like, she was glowing over the phone, like, smiling just at the thought of his face and laughing just at the thought of his jokes. The vibe was like, I never thought I'd hear from him again. I think it was a one-night stand. Why would Mike need us? Yeah.

Didn't Ellie ever stop and think about that? But, Jeffrey, I can't believe you went along with it. I thought I was going crazy for a second. I'm like. I was like, I mean, we should figure out who this guy is rather than just correcting her and being like no no no not him yeah but the more she said about mike the more the worst logan must have been feeling and then she added the story about logan oh yeah that was the cringe part i don't think he's ever going to listen to this on podcast i want to turn it

into a positive and maybe what we really should have done is we should have asked her if she wants us to call Mike for her for a second date update. We should! I know that'd be a little bit weird, but maybe we accidentally ran into a second date sitch. I feel like it's backstabbing to Logan, but I mean

I'm here for it. How ironic if Mike's like, she's just not funny. Well, she wasn't. I feel like it's our duty, though, to reach back out to Ellie and say, look, if Mike doesn't call you in the next 24 hours, have us reach out to him for you. Because she was a listener, too, and we're desperately in need of content.

We have loyalty to no one. No, we don't. So we apologize. Except to ourselves. So if you have loyalty to us one. No, we don't. So we apologize. Except to ourselves. Yeah. So if you have loyalty to us, too, you can always email us. We'll call the person who isn't calling you back. Get you a little second date update action.
