Ruck and Jubal's Second Date Update.
Business conventions are good for three reasons.
One, you get to learn new techniques about whatever industry that you're in,
maybe help you increase your business.
Number two, the sex.
And then number three, the sex.
What?
What business?
Those are the three reasons that business conventions are really, really good.
What are you talking about?
Anytime you meet somebody at a convention, you just assume you're probably going to be having sex with them.
Are you in the porn industry?
What industry are you in?
Everybody knows that about business conventions.
It's like you're in town for one night, you're there for the weekend, and you're just there.
You go and you learn whatever it is that you have to learn for the day.
Then you go out drinking at night and usually probably hook up with somebody.
All right.
And that's where James, who's on the phone today, he met the girl that he wants to call at a business convention.
So I'm assuming that they slept together.
Did you, James?
We did not.
What are you doing, man?
Come on.
It's a convention, girl.
They're so easy.
I guess I don't know if that's true yet.
Oh, okay. Is that the way it is? You know what what I haven't been to a business convention in a long time so
is that a marketing company for like a couple years and was terrible but that's
what I remember always thinking every time I had to go to convention was like
I'm gonna get lucky did you ever by myself what you're saying our business
conventions like what I think they are?
You know, it's a lot of people.
We're trapped in a space, you know.
Yeah, when you get out, I guess things could happen.
It happened for me this time, but, you know.
Why don't you tell us a little bit about the girl that you want to call today?
Yeah, her name is Kira.
We met at a convention.
Really?
I come in out of town.
Interesting.
You met at a convention?
We were talking about that.
Convention shock, right?
I come in from out of town every couple of weeks.
That's where I met her.
And we just kind of hit it off.
Have you ever seen her before?
No, no.
This is my first time seeing her was at this specific convention.
Did you guys actually go out on a date or did you just hang out all day at the convention?
Well, we like hung out and then I said, you know, hey, do you want to grab some dinner
tonight and leave it in tomorrow if you want to grab dinner tonight?
And she said, yeah.
I mean, was it clear that it was a date?
Because I feel like if you're hanging out all day with business people, it could just
be like, hey, we're both from out of town.
We both have to go out to eat.
That's when the sex happens.
Oh, of course.
Sorry.
Have you never been in business before ever?
Apparently not.
I mean, she knew that this was more than a dinner date.
Honestly, I was kind of hoping that we would end up having a little bit of sex maybe at the end of the night.
There you go i actually knew that already because i read your email and it says at one point you started actually asking her about
getting physical with each other what uh yeah after a few drinks i did that sounds so awkward
to me well i mean you know we had we're having a couple of drinks, and I felt comfortable. I felt like she was comfortable, too.
So, you know, I mean, it wasn't, I guess, to look back at it,
it was not the kind of move I should have made.
How did you approach that with her, though?
What did you say?
You know, I was just like, how about, you know, I got my room key,
hotel's right next door, you know.
I was trying to be fly, and it was not fly.
What did she say to you back?
She kind of got a little uncomfortable and was, like, ready to go, and I felt awful.
You know, I'm a human.
And I offered to walk her back to her hotel, and she said no, no thanks, and got a cab.
And I just went back to my place, and, you know, I tried to reach
out.
I did, because I felt bad, and I haven't heard from her.
What did you do by trying to reach out?
You text her or call her?
Yeah, yeah, you know, sent her a text.
That seems to be the easiest way to get a hold of her, and I haven't heard anything.
I think the problem was that you actually asked her to, like, go to your hotel.
You know, everybody knows the way you approach that is you just slide your room key across
the table and wink three times. Lesson learned. And then you go, uh-huh. And then she'll
just pick up on that hint. I mean, like, you know, like all joking aside, I really, really
liked this girl. And I mean, that's why I wrote in because I want to try to make this happen,
you know? So do you want to apologize to her for being maybe a little too forward
and then ask her for a second date? Absolutely. I want to apologize. And you want to apologize to her for being maybe a little too forward and then ask her
for a second date absolutely i want to apologize and i want to see if you know if i can't get a
second chance you know you feel like she's got the wrong impression yeah you know that's like
that's not really me that's not really you but if she would have said yes to going back to you
so it's you sometimes so sometimes that's you, but you would actually like to date her.
I mean, there's two sides to each person, right?
Yeah.
Before all that happened, I really do think we had an actual connection.
And I'm very interested and attracted to her.
So you think you just messed up by trying to get it back to your room same night that you met her?
I totally messed up.
I totally messed it up.
I mean, we were drinking,. I totally messed it up.
I mean, we were drinking, and you know how it is.
You take signs that might not be there, you know?
Yeah.
All right, well, we'll play a song, come back,
call her, and get your second date update, all right?
All right, thanks.
All right, hang on.

Brooke and Jubal in the morning.
Second date update.
We've got James on the phone with us, and today he wants to call a girl named Kiera.
They met at a convention.
He thinks he screwed up their first date because during dinner,
he asked her if she wanted to go back to his hotel room.
Not to, like, check out the great deal on Wi-Fi that they have there or the great amenities.
To do stuff that adults do with each other in hotel rooms on occasion.
Yes.
And she turned him down and said no and hasn't talked to him since.
But he'd like to get her on the phone because they met at this convention.
He's in town once in a while.
He wants to go out with her again, like on an actual date,
and not just try to, you know, get some butt.
Some butt?
Yeah.
Get some butt?
Yeah, that is one sexy way to put it.
Oh, my God.
How could a girl say no?
You about ready to give her a call and see if you can do some damage control and get another date?
Let's see what happens.
All right.
You know the tough part about this for you is convincing her that you're not just interested in sex.
Right.
Because you already went there, so how do you go back and be like,
no, I promise that wasn't the only thing that I'm interested in.
I would actually like to date you.
Charm?
Yeah, maybe. You think you have some of that, James interested in. I would actually like to date you. Charm? Yeah, maybe.
You think you have some of that, James?
Well, I guess we'll find out today.
If you had charm, you would have been able to get her to go back to your room.
You wouldn't even be having this problem.
Yeah, I guess it's the power of persuasion, then.
I think just be honest and true to yourself, James, is probably the best goal here.
Yeah, I'll just apologize and let her know that I was just too forward
and see if we can't go back and try it again and show her who I really am.
Okay, cool.
Well, I'm going to dial the phone right now and get her on the phone.
You ready?
All right, let's do it.
Okay.
Hello? Hello?
Hi, can I speak to Kiera, please?
Speaking.
Hi, Kiera.
This is Jubal from Brook and Jubal in the Morning.
How are you?
This is who?
Jubal from Brook and Jubal in the Morning.
Jubal.
I'm sorry.
I don't know who this is.
Okay.
I'm calling from Brook and Jubal in the Morning.
It's a radio show.
Okay.
One of our listeners recently emailed us about you asking if we could get you on the phone.
Someone wants me on the phone?
Yeah, sort of.
We do a segment on our show called the Second Date Update.
It's basically if you go out on a date with somebody and then blow them off,
they email us and ask if we can get you on the phone and ask if they did something wrong.
Who would do that?
His name is James, and you recently met him at a convention.
God, really?
Yep.
James emailed us and asked if we could get a hold of you because you're apparently not
answering any of his text messages.
Did you like James at all?
Well, I liked him on our date until the very end, but no.
Are you talking about the point where he asked if you wanted to go back to his hotel room?
He told you that?
Yeah, he did.
Yep.
He told us because we asked him about your date and about meeting you.
He said that he really liked you, but he also felt like he kind of overstepped his bounds there.
And he felt bad about it.
He kind of overstepped his boundaries?, and he felt bad about it. He kind of overstepped his boundaries?
I mean, did he tell you everything?
That's all I know is that you guys met at a convention,
went out for dinner, and he asked you to go back to his room,
and that's the last he heard from you.
That's all he told us.
Okay, so did he tell you towards the end of dinner,
and I understand we both had a couple of drinks,
but did he tell you that he said to me,
hey, you know, I'm in town every couple of weeks and i would love to have you as my friend with benefits
that is seriously what he propositioned you he was already trying to get me back to his place
that night which i figured out yeah i mean i'm not stupid it's not my first convention but just
be like hey baby i'm in town every couple of weeks. You could be my regular friends with benefits.
What the hell is that all about?
Is that really how he said it?
Because that's not how he explained it to us at all.
Well, I'm sure he's being all sweet when he explains it to you guys.
He doesn't want to sound like a f***ing d***.
Yeah, good point.
I mean, when I said no, because seriously, I've known him over dinner for maybe an hour and a half.
Yeah.
He accused me of being a prude.
No, he didn't.
He sure did.
How did he say that?
Because I value myself as a human being, not just as a woman, but as a human being.
He just doesn't want to spread my legs over cheap wine and.
So what did he say to you?
I mean, did he flat out call you a prude?
He did.
He called me a prude at dinner, and that was that.
And then I got up, and I went to go get a cab, go back to my hotel.
That is so crazy.
Like, the way he painted it was how much he enjoyed your company
and how great he thought you were.
Like, I would have never guessed he was that sleazy.
I would have never thought he was that sleazy when he so very nicely asked me out after
we hung out all day.
But as it turns out, he's no different than the majority of the sleazeballs who go to
these conventions.
They're like, hey, time to hook up.
Wife's not around.
I mean, they're all f***ing kids.
Does this happen a lot at conventions?
Oh, my God.
Yeah. I mean, they're all f***ing kids. Does this happen a lot at conventions? Oh my God, yeah.
I mean, everyone who's ever been to a convention knows it's just like code for one big s*** step.
That's funny.
You was right.
I was joking about that earlier.
We were talking about it and I was like, that's the way at least I would think of conventions.
I mean, I guess you get a bunch of horny businessmen out there.
Is this the first time something like this has happened to you?
Actually, it is because this is the first time I've ever said yes to going to dinner with anyone.
Normally, I just go, I do my thing, I hang out with whoever's there, and I just go back to my hotel room and go to bed.
So, he told us that he tried to text you after your date.
Oh, yeah, he sure did.
Oh.
Did he not just apologize in his text?
No, no, no.
I mean, he did.
He's like, listen, I'm sorry if things got out of hand.
And I wrote him back.
I'm like, just don't contact me ever again.
And then the guy has the balls to say, well, you don't know what you're missing with this.
And I'm like, what?
That's so gross.
He really said that to you?
He really.
I still have the text message.
Oh, my gosh.
He left all of that out.
It didn't...
From his side of the story,
it sounds like he was very sweet to you
after, like, I really apologize
for asking you to go back to my room.
That was so wrong of me.
Wouldn't you love to just kind of
talk to him about it, though?
Actually, I really wouldn't like
to talk to him about it.
I hope I never talk to him or see, though? Actually, I really wouldn't like to talk to him about it. I hope I never talk to him
or see him again. Oh.
At all. That's a shame, because he's on the phone
listening right now. He wants to talk to you.
What? Yeah.
Kira, don't you think you're
over-exaggerating this?
No, I seriously am not over-exaggerating.
I have those text messages that you sent
me, and you're like a foul, crap
pig, and I don't want to talk to you anymore. K and you're like a foul, crafty pig.
I don't want to talk to you anymore.
All right, well, here, please, you know, just hang on one second, all right?
I apologize for the text messages and, you know, like, it isn't really me,
but at the same time, we were both drinking a lot.
I don't remember sending you that text message.
I remember apologizing, but I don't remember saying anything about my d***.
I wouldn't do that.
I thought it was just another piece of proof
that what a disgusting f***ing pig that you are,
that I saved it,
showed it to all the women that I know
that are going to the convention in a week
to make sure that they didn't as much as even say hello to you.
That's so awesome.
But you know what?
You were the one that went out with me.
Didn't you just say that you knew that's what these conventions were all about,
and yet you came out to dinner with me?
You can't play football on me.
What?
I went out to dinner with you.
I didn't go back to your hotel room with you and then suddenly become a prude.
There's a big f***ing difference.
I'm learning.
Well, but here's the deal.
You got me going.
We were there together, and then all of a sudden you're going to walk away?
That sounds like a prude to me.
What? We were drinking. You were flirting. You were trying to get me going. We were there together, and then all of a sudden you're going to walk away? That sounds like a prude to me. What?
We were drinking.
You were flirting.
You were trying to get me going, and you got me going.
Oh, my gosh.
Oh, my gosh.
James, why do you have to say it like that?
Stop.
It's true.
You did it to me.
You got me going.
Oh, my gosh.
Seriously, you guys, I'm so sick of this guy.
He's a pig.
If you can't tell that, all of you are delusional.
I don't think anybody doubts that.
Everybody's on your side with this one, Kira.
Once I heard the phrase, got me going, a few times in there, I'm on board.
Hey, Kira, regardless, would you like to go out with James again on a second date?
I'd love to pay for it.
No? Hell no. What if we don't get him going again on a second date? I'd love to pay for it. No?
Hell no. What if we don't get him going
as bad on this date?
I would sooner
go out with my dog.
Yeah, yeah, you know, whatever.
You prude. You need to learn how to throw your
signals out.
Yeah, it's definitely Kira's fault.
Go get a
prostitute next time, honey.
Well, you know what?
There's another convention coming up.
I'll see what I can do.
Now you guys got me going with that whole prostitute thing.
And when you got me going, you got me going.
