Moving 92.5 Rook and Jubal's Second Date Update Now everybody's heard of the three-day rule, right? You go out with someone, wait a couple days before you call them or text them. Well, this guy is excellent at the three-day rule. He's actually gone so hardcore with it he's
Starting point is 00:02:07 waiting eight years to call somebody back after a date there you go that's the way to do it that's the way to make them wonder if they're kind of into you or not wait almost a whole decade and then try to get him on the phone eric is on the phone with us he sent us an email that he wants to try to get a hold of a girl that he went on a date with eight years ago. Whoa. Eric, how you doing, man? I'm doing great, yeah. Long eight years. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:02:34 Why are you wanting to do this right now? Your email is very confusing. Why are you trying to call a girl that you went out with eight years ago? You know, sometimes someone just kind of sticks with you. I haven't been obsessing for eight years, but I just keep wanting to know what would happen.
Starting point is 00:02:49 You know, it's like the door is still open a little bit and I just want to see if she'd just be closed or we should open it full on, you know? How is the door still open
Starting point is 00:03:01 after eight years? I mean, she could have like multiple kids. She couldn't even live. Like, do you know this girl still? She could be a man by now. True. She could have completely gone under a change and be a dude right now.
Starting point is 00:03:14 That's true. Did you guys go out on more than one date? Did you date for a while? No. We only went out once. And the date was so special in your mind that you've been thinking about it for eight years. It was a great date. It was great.
Starting point is 00:03:28 What? What did you guys do? We were both at this concert, and we met there, and we were dancing along, singing along. I saw that we were both kind of mouthing the words to the same song. I think everyone does at the concert. How romantic. It sounds super romantic. But we both were at the bar to get a drink and just started talking a little bit.
Starting point is 00:03:51 And before I knew it, neither of us were paying attention to the concert as much as just really talking and connecting and hanging out even after the concert. And ended up kissing. It was just like a kind of fun, magical night. Yeah, it's one of those experiences, I guess, where you look back and you're like, wow, man, that was really cool. She was awesome. It was a nice night. Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:04:14 I've never had that before, but I've heard of people having those. So you spent eight years. Why not get a hold of her sooner? You know, I got her number the end of that night, and it was just like an unfortunate series of events. I wanted to call, but then I couldn't because I had to go down to California for a couple weeks. And so when I got back, I called her and tried to tell her through a voicemail,
Starting point is 00:04:41 like, hey, you know, I wasn't trying to blow you off. I'd love to see you again. Sorry for the delay. And I just never heard from her again. God, they had voicemail eight years ago, huh? Well, we still have voicemail now on our cell phones. It's a joke. So you think that you waited too long to call her and she was like, oh, screw it, this guy's not interested?
Starting point is 00:05:01 I guess. I don't know. But I was still excited at the prospect of meeting up. Did you try to get a hold of her while you were in California? No. I was down there because my brother was having some problems with the law. And I figured there's just a lot of questions for a first date. You were busy taking care of some family business. Right. Yeah, exactly.
Starting point is 00:05:26 That would be awkward. Can you imagine? Hey, hold on a second. My brother's being detained right now, but I want to let you know I really liked you a lot. Okay, so you waited until you got back to call her, and she never got back to you, and you're assuming that that's what it was, that you just waited too long. I guess.
Starting point is 00:05:42 But it sounds to me like you guys didn't actually go on a date. You just made out at a concert. That's why it was so special, though. We just met at the concert. Like, neither of us expected to meet anyone. We weren't looking to... We were there to enjoy the music, and then we really connected.
Starting point is 00:05:59 And I don't know. It was... I was just so excited to get to know her more. Have you, like, been able to find her on Facebook in the last eight years? No, I looked, but I don't know if I'm like misspelling her last name at this point. It's been eight years. She might just be private. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:15 I have her number still, but I don't want to be the guy that's like calling and calling after eight years. So have you been like rehearsing what you want to say to this girl? Cause you've had eight years to think about it. Honestly, I, I haven't, I, I just kind of want to know where she's at and I think cause she could be married, you know, she could have kids. I like that's all a possibility. And I'm not, uh, thinking that if that's the case, like anything would happen, but I just kind of want to know where she's at, and if she does happen to be single,
Starting point is 00:06:48 then maybe we can go out and get drinks, get dinner. What are you going to tell her? Like, I'm just imagining if I had a guy call me after eight years, I'd want to know a little bit about why it took him so long. Yeah. I mean, after eight years, I just have to know. You know, I just, like I said, if that door is closed, I just want to know that it's closed. I would love it if we could go out again, but I feel like I need some kind of closure with this.
Starting point is 00:07:15 There's probably no way it's not going to be awkward. But it could be flattering. It could be flattering that she's been on your mind for eight years. She could be like, oh, that's so sweet. Or it could be super creepy to her. Yeah, either one. It could go either way. What her name by the way her name is rebecca all right well we'll play a song come back call rebecca and get your second date update right after this okay all right thanks man all right man hang on 92.5 brook and jubile in the's second date update.
Starting point is 00:07:50 That I guarantee you will probably be one of the most beautiful love stories ever. To grace those weird little ears of yours. Eric is on the phone with us right now, and Eric has been burning with a fire deep inside of him for eight long years. Don't let that flame go out, Eric. Wondering what happened to Rebecca, the love of his life. We met one night at a concert. Their eyes locked as they sang along to the lyrics. They shared a beer and great conversation and even ended the evening with
Starting point is 00:08:30 the most beautiful kiss the world has ever seen. Fireworks. And he called her and received no call back. And now eight years later, Eric is left stunned, wondering what happened to his princess that night. And will she be his once again? Eric, does that really kind of recap what we just talked about? Yeah, basically.
Starting point is 00:09:05 If you're just tuning in, Eric wants to do a second date update with a girl that he met eight years ago. He actually went to California for a little while after they met, didn't call her until he got back, and he never received a call back from her. He thinks maybe he waited too long. Before I call her, it's been eight years, so there's a high chance that she doesn't remember who you are because you guys only met for one evening. Do you have a scar on your face?
Starting point is 00:09:24 Or are you missing an arm? Something that would maybe help jog her memory. As far as things to jog her memory, the concert was a Flaming Lips concert. Okay. And it was during the summer, I'm pretty sure. Pretty sure. Even the details of the concert
Starting point is 00:09:45 are fuzzy for you. It was a Flaming Lips concert in the summer eight years ago that you met her. Right. Alright, well I'm going to dial the phone right now see if we can get her on the phone and get your second date update. You ready? Sounds good. Here we go, man. Hello? Hi, can I speak to Rebecca, please?
Starting point is 00:10:12 Yeah, this is she. Hey, Rebecca, how are you? This is Jubal from Brick and Jubal in the Morning. Okay. Sorry, is this a telemarketer? No. I wish you were a telemarketer. It's a radio program, radio show, morning radio show.
Starting point is 00:10:32 Oh, how'd you get my number? I'll tell you that in just a second. Do you have a few minutes to speak with us? Maybe if I know what this is about. Well, we recently got an email to our show from somebody who wanted to reconnect with you. Okay. So weird, right? This is going to be, I'm going to just tell you right now, Rebecca, this is going to be
Starting point is 00:10:54 a very weird phone call. It's going to get weirder. Um, okay. It's not bad. But hang in there because it is not bad. Yeah. It's okay. It's not bad, you said?
Starting point is 00:11:04 Yeah. It's not bad at all. Okay. But it's weird. it is not bad. Yeah. It's okay. It's not bad. You said it's not bad at all. Okay. It's weird, but it's weird. You met a guy eight years ago named Eric at a flaming lips concert in the summer, I believe. And Eric emailed us because he wanted to see if we could get a hold of you to ask you out on another date. What?
Starting point is 00:11:26 Yeah, I know. It is as weird as it sounds. We do a segment on our show called The Second Date Update. What that is is if you go out on a date with someone and then you blow them off, they email us to see if we can get you on the phone and ask why. Wait, eight years ago? Yes.
Starting point is 00:11:41 Apparently you met this dude at a concert eight years ago. You guys hung out, even kissed at the end of the night. Oh my God. I know. That's a really long time ago. It is a really, really long time ago. You made quite the impression. That's what we said.
Starting point is 00:11:53 Do you remember going to a Flaming Lips concert eight years ago? I don't know. I mean, that sounds like something I would have done. I mean, I went to a lot of concerts. I partied a lot. So you made out with a lot of guys at a lot of different shows is what you're saying. Yeah, I went to a lot of different shows and concerts. I drank a lot, so I probably don't have the best memory for that.
Starting point is 00:12:21 Well, I'll tell you, at least according to this guy, you were at a Flaming Lips concert eight years ago. You guys hung out at the bar, drank a little bit, even kissed to end the night. You gave him your phone number, said, call me later. He took a few weeks to call you because he was down in California doing some stuff. He says he called you when he came back, and he has not heard a thing from you since. And you've been on his mind for eight years.
Starting point is 00:12:44 Like, he's been thinking about me constantly for eight years. He doesn't say constantly, though. He says that he's just like you'll pop into his mind from time to time, and he's like, I wonder what happened to that girl, and I would love to see her again. Oh. I mean, that's kind of, that sounds really sweet. I'm trying to remember, but nothing's really coming to mind right now.
Starting point is 00:13:10 Yeah, it was eight years ago. Rebecca, I can let you talk to him if you want. Like, call him up? No, like he's on the other line listening right now. Eric, you there? Yep, I'm here. Well, you there? Yep. I'm here. Well, say hi, Eric. It's been eight years.
Starting point is 00:13:29 Say something. Hey, how's it going? Still like deflating lips? Still like... So awkward. Hey, you said your name was Eric? Yeah. That's me.
Starting point is 00:13:48 Okay. Hi. You don't remember me at all? I'm really sorry. I'm trying to jog my memory here, but... We were at the Flaming Lips concert, and we were singing along. We got a beer together. We ended up kissing.
Starting point is 00:14:08 You gave me your number. Brown hair. Brown hair. That's it, Eric? Like, any more descriptors. Yeah. Yeah, we kept hanging out after the concert. We laughed a lot.
Starting point is 00:14:21 You gave me your number. I mean, I gave a lot of people my number. It's been eight years. There's been a lot of guys. Did that come out wrong? Rebecca, do you mean that how it sounds? I mean, no. I mean, like, I've met a lot of guys.
Starting point is 00:14:40 I've gone on a lot of dates. Yeah, well, I mean, it's been eight years. Eric, I don't think I was expecting you to stay celibate and wait for him all eight years. Oh, wait. Did you have a motorcycle? No. Damn, I thought we were going to get somewhere. Dang it.
Starting point is 00:15:02 It's a brown-haired motorcycle. Just a guy with brown hair with a beard, no motorcycle. Is anything jogging your memory at all, Rebecca? Honestly, I'm really sorry, but nothing's really coming to me. I'm surprised you don't remember anything. We talked for hours. We really connected. It was special.
Starting point is 00:15:24 Do you remember what we talked about? surprised you don't remember anything. We talked for hours. We really connected. It was special. Do you remember what we talked about? Uh, flaming lips. The concert we were at. I might have been pretty drunk at that point. I usually got pretty wasted at concerts. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:41 So, I'm really sorry. I mean, you seem really sweet, and it sucks that I can't remember anything. Hey, Rebecca, what have you been up to these past eight years? Are you single now? You got a husband, wife? Yeah, I'm single. Awesome. I mean, I guess in the past eight years a lot has happened, but I'm single now.
Starting point is 00:16:06 Well, then I need to ask you if you'll go on a second date with Eric. Eric, would you like to go out with Rebecca again? Absolutely, yeah. Rebecca will pay for a second date if you'll go out with him again. Oh, do it. He sounds so sweet.
Starting point is 00:16:21 He's a stranger. Oh, who cares? He's not a stranger. That's what dating is. You go out with strangers. It's just part of the game. He's a stranger. Oh, who cares? He's not a stranger. That's what dating is. You go out with strangers. It's just part of the game. He's an old friend from eight years ago that she doesn't remember at all. But who knows?
Starting point is 00:16:32 Why not give it a shot, Rebecca? You know what? You seem really sweet and cute. Sure. As soon as I find a sitter, I'd love to go out with you. What? As soon as you find a sitter? Yeah, I to go out with you. What? As soon as you find a sitter? Yeah, I have a couple kids.
Starting point is 00:16:48 It's been eight years. I guess it has been a while. I mean... Well, I guess I should ask again. Eric, do you want to go out with Rebecca still? Oh. You better say yes, Eric, else you're going to look like the biggest douche ever.
Starting point is 00:17:01 Hey, come on. Yeah. That does not sound like it. Awesome. Well, successful second date. You didn't say yes just because you're on the radio, right? No.
Starting point is 00:17:16 No. You can hear it. Yeah, Eric, if you've been thinking about her for this long, who cares if she's got like eight kids? One per year? I'll go out with her, yeah long. Who cares if she's got like eight kids? One per year? I'll go out with her, yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:27 Yeah, it'll be fun. I don't know what to believe. Well, we'll send you guys out on a second date. Rebecca, thank you for your time. Thanks. I look forward to meeting you again, Eric. Awesome. And we don't really have many details about that night.
Starting point is 00:17:42 Both of them, it's kind of cloudy for both of them, so who knows? Maybe he could be the father of one of those kids. No, no, no, no, no, no. That did not happen. 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.
Starting point is 00:18:04 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?
