The guy on the phone that wants us to do a second date update today did something on his first date that I find unacceptable, despicable, deplorable, even. You don't have a lot of standards.

No, I don't. Will, before I rip into you, how are you, sir? I'm good. I don't think I screwed up that badly. Wow. It sounds like that was hard to sell. For me, Will, if I would have gone on this first date with you, I would have left right when I got to the restaurant to meet you.

Are you, do you have no heart? Welcome to the show, Will. What Will did on his first date, we'll get into how you met the girl and everything else, but Will took his dog on the first date. What? Do you guys think that that's... No, that's not it. That's kind of awkward.

It's weird, I think. It depends. What kind of dog do you have? It's a chocolate lab. His name's Cody. He's my best friend. No, honestly, I've taken Cody on more than... this isn't the first date I've taken Cody on. So you take your dog on all your dates?

If the girl doesn't love my dog, she's not going to love me. If the dog doesn't love the girl. That's cool, man. Like, you and I would never be able to date. That's all I'm saying. So you're looking to find another dog lover, and you like your dog. That's all right. I like to date people with souls. Yeah, there it is. So did you tell her, though, that you were taking your dog on your date before you guys went out? No.

We were texting a bunch, but no, she was a little surprised. What's her name, by the way? Amber. Amber. And how did you meet Amber? It was actually a blind date. Set up by some coworkers. All right.

Okay. And now, did she like your dog? Did she pass the dog test? She seemed like she liked him. We ordered him a little steak, and he ate with us. And afterwards, we went for a walk around the neighborhood, and she was, like, doing... Can I interrupt you real quick? Yeah, yeah.

Were you in a dog-friendly place, or did you show up to a fine-dining steakhouse with a dog? No, it was a nice restaurant, but they have like a patio. Like, I've eaten there before with Cody. It's like an outside patio. You can climb up right next to you. So they allow your dog in there. Okay. Not in the restaurant, but on the patio, yeah.

Here's the thing, Cody. I feel like dogs are people's kids sometimes. They treat them that way. So it would be weird if some guy brought his daughter on a first date with me and just, you know, wanted her approval of me. That's a little far. Come on. This is a dog. I'm not tying up my daughter next to the table. I'm just saying bringing her on a first date. Yeah, bringing it on the first date. Well, it's kind of weird. I mean, you would want to check and be like, hey, is it cool if I bring my dog? If you don't know her that well, you would think so. So anyway.

Wait, I really don't get what you guys are so, I mean, what is the big problem with it? Why is it so outlandish that I brought my dog? Well, because not everybody likes dogs, and you would think that on a first date you would just go out with the girl, unless you were like, hey, let's go walk my dog. If a girl doesn't like dogs, I don't want to be anywhere. I don't want to be involved with her at all. I think they would be actually attractive. I mean, it shows you're responsible. It shows that, you know, you love someone besides yourself, that you can take care of

someone. Yeah. So how did the date go? Like the dinner? It went really good. I mean, we had great conversation. Food was great. And she was laughing.

And we went for this walk afterwards. And I was teaching her some commands with Cody. And she was laughing. And we went for this walk afterwards. And I was teaching her some commands with Cody. And Cody was listening. And like. You didn't make her like pick up the dog poop or anything while you guys were on the walk, did you? No. No, no, no, no, no. Actually, Cody behaved himself.

Okay, good. Oh, good. He held his bathroom duty for. Oh, he was respecting your date. And that's nice of him cody's a gentleman was everything cool when you guys split ways when you're done at the evening and yeah cody actually tried to hop in the back of her car so i took that as a good sign cody's trying to get lucky uh i went in for the kiss and like she did sort of like a real quick peck and then got in the car.

So I was like, oh, okay. But, I mean, it's still good, though. I thought, I mean, I'm really kind of confused why she's not getting back to me. I thought it was great. So she did kiss you, though, at the end? Yeah. It wasn't like she was trying to get out of there and this girl never wants to see me again. Yeah.

But it was also like, oh, we're not going to stand here and make out on the street. And how many times have you tried to call her or text her since your date? Probably an embarrassing amount, no. Like five. Have you talked to your coworkers

that set you up? Yeah, I just said, you know, I had a great time but I haven't really asked them like why isn't she getting back to me. You didn't want to look pathetic. Yeah.

Yeah, calling a radio station is better. Have you sent the dog over to her house with a note on his collar? That would be cute. I tried that.

Oh my goodness. No, I haven't done any of that. I'm just confused and I'd love if you guys could help me out here. Yeah, man. Alright,

well we'll play a song, come back, call her and get your second date update okay awesome all right hold on i stand by what i said in the first part of the second date update, people who bring their dogs on dates are the scum of the earth. That is ridiculous, dude. I am so fired up that I refuse to be a part of this second date. I'm walking out. Shut up, dude. Jose, you got it from this point on.

Okay? Jose's going to get it, huh? We'll take over. No, no. I refuse. Will is on the phone with us right now. Will wants us to call a girl named Amber. They were set up through coworkers.

The only thing really notable about Will's first date is that he brought his dog on the date, with us right now. Will wants us to call a girl named Amber. They were set up through coworkers. The only thing really notable about Will's first date is that he brought his dog on the date, something that we think is kind of strange because he didn't tell her that he was bringing his dog. They went to a restaurant, ate, went for a walk, did in the evening with a little bit of a kiss, but he hasn't heard from her since. Will, are you ready to give Amber a call?

I'm definitely ready. Just when I hear your voice, man, it just shivers and sends up my spine. Well, I'm probably the only one in this room that's on your side. I think it's kind of cool to bring your dog along. Thank you. But if it turns out that she doesn't like your dog, is it like a no-go no matter what? Yeah, absolutely. But she did like it.

That's why I'm confused. She liked my dog. And to clarify, I support you. I think it's great how much you love your dog. I just think that it's a possibility you paid more attention to the dog than the woman on the date. All right, all right. I mean, okay. But we were all allowed mistakes, right? Did you pay more attention to the dog than her? No, I don't think so. But I mean, also, I'm a guy and I'm half an idiot. I bet you did.

All right, I'm going to dial the phone number right now. Get her on the phone, okay? All right. Here we go. Hello? Hi, is this Amber? Yeah, this is Amber. Amber, how are you?

This is Jubal from Brook and Jubal in the Morning. I'm sorry, what did you say your name was? Jubal from Brook and Jubal in the Morning. Okay, how can I help you? Well, you recently went on a date with one of our listeners. I did? Mm-hmm, and they emailed us about you. Okay.

That answers nothing yet. His name is Will and he emailed us because he really liked your date and enjoyed meeting you, but apparently you haven't been responding to any of his text messages or phone calls. So he told us about your date and then asked if we could get you on the phone to find

out why you don't want to see him again. Oh my goodness, really? Yeah. Is it kind of, I know it's weird, but is it kind of making sense now, this whole situation? Yeah, it makes sense, but that's really, really awkward.

What do you want to know? Well, I just want to know if he did anything wrong or if there's something that he could change in the future when he goes out on dates. Well, I mean, the long and short of it is that he, you know, sometimes you go on a first date with somebody and you just realize you don't really have chemistry. There's just certain things that kind of turn you off. And for me, that happened after we had dinner we went on a walk and i don't know how much he told you about our date but i'll tell you what he told us he told us that

you guys went to dinner he did say he brought along his dog and didn't tell you and then he said you guys went for a walk at the end of the evening you shared a short little kiss and then he never heard from you again yeah all. All right. I guess you could say I learned a lot about his character. He let his dog poop right in the middle of the sidewalk, and he didn't pick it up. He kind of tried to pretend like he didn't see it happen. I can't stand it when people do that. Now, are you sure that he didn't see it? Oh, he saw it. He definitely saw it. It's a chocolate lab. You're not going people do that. Are you sure that he didn't see it? Oh, he saw it.

He definitely saw it. It's a chocolate lab. You're not going to miss that. And he just left it there. Yeah, he just left it there. And I don't know if it was that he didn't have bags. I was trying to see if he had bags. I don't think he had one of those little dog, you know, bag dispenser things on his leash.

I don't know how many times I've done that downtown. In downtown Seattle, people let their dogs go all over the sidewalk. It's so annoying. I know. over the sidewalk. It's so annoying. I know. It's disgusting. It's really gross. And you know what? It shows a total lack of respect for the community. Why didn't you say anything to him?

I was shocked. I couldn't believe that anybody would do that, especially on a date when you're trying to impress a girl. So, yeah, I mean, even if you don't pick up your poop normally from your dog, if I was out on a date with a girl, I might do it. Like, I don't recycle, but if I was out with a girl, I might throw something in the recycling. You know what I mean? So you feel like that's like a character flaw.

I mean, if it happened and it was embarrassing and whatever, you don't have a bag, like, I would have at least called attention to it. Like, hey, I'm sorry, you know, let me run in here and get a bag or get napkins or something. It just, to me, that was like, just showed his laziness and taking care of his dog. And then not only that, his dog was like farting under the table the whole night. He probably was. It is a dog. He doesn't really know how to behave himself at a restaurant. Amber, thank you very much for being honest with us and telling us why you don't want to go out with Will again. I appreciate that. Yeah.

I also want to let you know that Will is listening and he's on the phone. Oh, my gosh. Hey, Amber? Amber, Cody did not... I never saw that. I never... Honestly, I always pick up Cody's number two. That did not happen.

It happened right when we left the restaurant. We turned the corner and it was, right there on the corner. He pooed a big pile of it, too. Why didn't you say something? He was holding it in because he was farting under the table. Gross. Wait, wait, wait. Time out.

You're talking to me about respect for the community. Why didn't you say something? I didn't see that. It's not my job to respect the community when it's your dog pooping. Like I said, I didn't see any dog dispenser bag thing. I use the wrappers that newspapers come in. I keep them in my back pocket. I don't buy the plastic things that go on the leash.

Will, how do you not notice that? Because a dog's not a horse. It doesn't just fall out while they're walking. They usually stop. Here's the thing. I might have not noticed it because I was distracted by her. In a good way. But if she's saying that she saw it and she didn't say anything, that's the problem.

There you go, Amber. Will is saying he was distracted by your beauty so he couldn't see his dog go to the bathroom. That's ridiculous. If there's a child in your presence and there's two adults talking you're talking but you're also keeping an eye on on the kid you know it's kind of the same thing with a dog like you're talking but your eyes are on the thing that you have responsibility to take care of you know and so my awareness was on the dog and what he was doing and well when you let him you didn't say anything why didn't you say something? Why is that my responsibility? You know what? I don't even want to go out with you again. It sounds like you hate dogs.

I love dogs. I'm a dog person. Well, if you're a dog person, why are you such a jerk? Amber, do you feel like a jerk? I don't even know what to say right now. This is absolutely ridiculous. She's not a jerk? I don't even know what to say right now. This is absolutely ridiculous. She's not a jerk. She likes dogs.

She just wants to see them taken care of properly. If she wants to see them taken care of properly, why didn't she take care of them properly? And let me know that that happened. I see where this is going. Down the line, he's going to want me to be his mother, take care of his dog, do his laundry. Nope, sorry.

It all starts with one thing, and that's if you pick up your dog's poop, you can tell a lot about a person. I'm going to ask you guys anyway. Amber, would you like to go on a second date with Will? Dog walking. Thank you, but I'll pass. No, even if you pay for it? Nope, not a chance.

Will, anything you want to go out with her again? No, I'd rather shove my face into a campfire. That is a second date first. It is. He'd rather shove his face into a campfire. I've never heard that before, but all right. I like it.

Well, I guess you guys can both agree to disagree. Thank you very much for your time, Amber. Will, appreciate your email and you listening, man. All right. Thanks, guys. Maybe pick up after your dog from now on. Broken Jubal in the morning. Ugh, we're so
