Listen to On Purpose with Jay Shetty on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. A lot of people try to find fun games to play when they're on a first date. Usually it's something boring like checkers or Chinese checkers or Italian checkers. Basically, people play checkers on first dates all the time. But the guy in today's second date update, Mike, chose to play a different game.

He didn't go the checker route. Oh, wow. Yeah, what's up, Mike? How are you? Hey, guys. How you doing? Good. I read your email.

Way to be bold and not play checkers on a first date, man. Yeah, thanks. I thought that was a little too run-of-the-mill, you know? Yeah, yeah.

See, exactly. Mike knows what I'm talking about. Everybody's always playing checkers on first dates, huh? I know, I know. Why are we so obsessed with checkers right now? I don't know, bro. What did you do on your first date?

Well, so we went to a bar, right? And, like, we got to the bar, and I wanted to do something fun, and I wanted to break the ice. And so I decided, like, the two of us should play this game together, you know? Okay, what game? I thought, we'll look at the bar and we'll pick out a person and we'll guess that person's name

and what they do for a living. Oh, I like that game. I play that game. I don't know that there's a name for that game, but I often play that game. Yeah, it's fun.

You get to show each other a little bit of your personality. You laugh. Yeah, and you get to judge people all at the same time. No, it's not judging people. It's super fun. It's just like making

funny backstories about how maybe they worked at a manure plant a while back. Totally, totally, yes. So like after the game, I thought let's go talk to them and like actually see like how did we do. Oh, wow. That's risky. Did you just go up to them and be like, hey, we've been watching you all night trying to guess what you do for a living. And we want to see if we're right. And then ask them a bunch of questions. So, you know, you go up to them and you just sort of like casually ask them about themselves and you just try and like, you know, drop it in. Like, I mean, it's easy to start with

the name, right? And then like you naturally get to like what they do for a living. And like, it turns out we got one guy right. So what did this guy do that you got right well so he works in it and we looked at him we saw his t-shirt it was like a computer graphic and he was wearing some glasses and he's like nursing his drink in the corner and and you know we both we both thought like it and we're talking to him and he tells us he works in IT and as soon as he said that just instinct like she and I high five and he looked at us real weird maybe he just thinks you're really passionate about IT jobs like hell yeah guys can I get in on that high five too

yeah I mean like we totally would have high fived him like it was a great moment okay so it sounds like you had a good time yes it was so much fun like we kept going around and like meeting more people and there's this other table that we introduced ourselves to and we like we hung out with them we laughed i was enjoying myself she was enjoying herself this table like they enjoyed hanging out with us i mean everything sounds great till this point how How'd you end everything? You know, we both had to be up for work the next day. And like, we both decided, let's call it a night. And we walked outside.

I gave her a hug. And it was just like, it was a really nice day. Like, you know, nothing awkward. It was just like a nice hug at the end. And I haven't heard from her since. Did you, I mean, did you get time through all this game and hanging out with your new group of friends to actually get to know her very well?

I mean, I thought so, yeah. I thought we got a chance to show each other how we interact. And, you know, there were no, like, awkward silences that, like, I tend to experience on first dates. You know, we got to sort of, like, we got to sort of, like, hang out with each other each other and like see how we interact with lots of different kinds of people i thought it was awesome okay so after the date you make plans to hang out again we didn't make concrete plans but we both said like yes let's hang out again we both she confirmed that she had a good time okay you know and i was like very clear like this was awesome i'd love to see you again you think she's not calling you back then you know like I don't know there was one moment like during the night when like I

made one joke about one guy that like I just thought it was a joke that like didn't land right you know what was the joke so we were looking at this one guy trying to guess his name and what he does and like his clothes were like real shabby didn't look like he prized like personal hygiene and like i made a comment and a joke about like well he's probably poor oh dude okay that's not really a joke that's just me were you right do you know if you were right? I don't know. I will be steered clear of that guy. Yeah, you don't want to talk to poor people anyway, right?

How did she react when you said that? Did she seem upset? I mean, there was like a look, right? She seemed a little bit like, oh, she winced a little. Yeah. Yeah, of course. He's poor. You're going to wince.

She didn't wince because of that. She wince because she's a little uncomfortable. But I didn't think it was more than that. I mean, like, I'm poor. I couldn't care less if she's poor, right? Like, I'm just joking.

Okay, so you think maybe she's not calling you back because she didn't like that joke. I mean, that's really all I can think of. Okay, cool. Well, we'll play a song, come back, call her,

and get your second date update, all right? Okay, awesome. Thank you, guys. Okay, hang'll play a song, come back, call her, and get your second date update, all right? Okay, awesome. Thank you, guys. Okay, hang on. If you're just joining us for today's second date update, I'm really surprised that Mike, who is on the phone to call Deanna right now for another date, isn't getting a call back because normally women love it when you make fun of poor people on dates mike i'm surprised like that's always been a go-to for me just sometimes just

drive around the city and laugh at homeless people and it's always gotten me so far with ladies that is not that is not fair that is not at all what i meant it was a light joke and it didn't land it didn't land all right if you're wondering what we're talking about, Mike went out with this girl named Deanna. They went to a bar and they spent their night playing a fun game where they would look at people and try to guess their occupation and all that and then even go up to them later

and meet them and then find out if they were right. But he feels like she might not be calling back because he had a poorly timed joke where he looked at someone and said, I bet you that guy's just poor. And his date didn't look like she thought it was funny. It sounds worse here. I never heard. Did you ever approach the poor guy and find out what he did?

No, we steered clear of him. I thought it was probably not best to revisit. Yes, thank you. Just leave that in the past and move forward. And even then, it sounds like you recovered because you said that she was interested in hanging out again at the end of the night. It sounded like it, yeah. And we kept hanging out. We kept meeting these other people.

She had a great time. Yeah. All right, cool. Well, I'm about to dial her phone number right now and see if we can find out why she's not getting back to you, okay? Awesome. Thanks, guys. All right, here we go. Hello?

Hi, can I speak to Deanna, please? This is Deanna. Hey, Deanna, how are you? This is Jubal from Brook and Jubal in the Morning. Brook and Jubal... In the Morning. Brook and Jubal's the first name, last name in the morning. Don't listen to him, dude.

What are you calling me about? What's happening? It's Brook and Jubal in the Morning. It's a radio show. And we got an email about you from one of our listeners. About me? Yeah. His name is Mike, and you guys went out on a date the other night.

Oh. Why did he email you guys? That was a tone change. Because we do a segment on our show called the second date update so mike had a really great time he says he thought you had a good time too but now you're not calling him back so well that's interesting um that's interesting you don't think that he had a good time um you could say that yeah his description of the date is like picture perfect almost like you guys were laughing you're high-fiving, you gave hugs.

Oh, that's true. I thought we had a really good time. I had fun, but apparently he didn't have a good enough time. Why do you say that? I mean, how much do you guys know? Well, we know that you guys went to a bar and then played a game

where you would guess people's occupations and stuff. Uh-huh. Then went and talked to people and found out if you were right. Yeah, yeah. That's pretty much all he told us. Was it the poor joke? He told us about the poor joke, how he tried to make fun of somebody and it didn't really

work very well. No. The whole thing was us judging people. It was, I was, I mean, that was fine. Okay. So you're into that. All right. I mean, I was even joking about somebody saying that they were probably a professional like hamburger eater or something we were just joking it was all in good fun it was

fine okay so if that didn't bother you then why don't you think he had a good time okay so did he tell you like we made some friends he told us that you guys talked to a lot of people yeah yeah yeah there was this one group in particular that we kind of ended the evening with. We were sitting at the table and having drinks and having laughs. We got along really well. Okay, all that sounds good. You haven't told me anything that sounds bad yet. So the point is, I had to work in the morning, he had to work in the morning, so it was time to go.

We give each other a hug. We say, you know, had a great time, like to see each other again. And at this point, you think that you guys are going to go out again? I thought so. Yeah. So we say goodbye. And I get home. And one of the girls from the table sent me a friend request on Facebook. So you know, I accepted her friend request. And like, I had not been home that long. And she sent me a message on Facebook saying that she's like, I don't, I don't know if you know, but this guy that you were in with is back at the bar. And he was like, she told me she's there like in real time,

like telling me like what's going on with this guy that he's like at the bar, like flirting with other girls. When he told me he was going to go home. So he didn't go home. Yeah, but in the same vein, you guys, I mean, it's one date. It's not like you're in a relationship. He has no reason to be.

But I'm just saying it's kind of weird for him to say goodbye to me and go back into the bar where we just had a date and he's hitting on other girls yeah yeah i mean i guess i could see that i'm still on the fence is that weird i would say that's weird like he said he was going home he lied obviously he's not that into me and i'm just not into that okay well he said that he was into you well it seems otherwise okay well maybe you want to ask him because he's actually on the other line listening to this conversation and wants to talk to you.

Are you serious? Yep. Yep. Mike, are you there or have you called another radio show already? No, come on, guys. Yeah, I'm here. Hi, Deanna. Hi, Mike.

Look, there's a completely reasonable explanation to all of this. Okay. I came with a jacket, and when we walked out of the bar i left it in there so i i went back in to get my jacket so you're saying you forgot your jacket and then you accidentally started flirting with other women no no i'm saying that i don't get to like have a lot of nights where i get to like socialize i don't go out a lot and so when i went back in to get the jacket i went back to the table that we had been hanging out with. And I just like stayed and I hung out with them and I had a good time. I wasn't hitting on other girls.

Really? So why would this girl tell me that you were? I have absolutely no idea. I wasn't even talking to her. I was talking to like the other guys at the table more than her. She has no reason to send you that. Like that's way out of line. So you're just telling me that she just made it up, that she just decided to tell me, just make up that you were flirting with other women. Why, what would she do that for? Why would she tell me that? Look, yes. Were there other women at the bar that I spoke to? Yeah. Was I hitting on them? No. Like, not at all.

I hear you. It just seems different than what I heard, and it just felt really crappy, you know? Like, I had a good time with you. Okay, if you're asking me if I am banging anyone that we met. Wait, that's the word that you jumped to? Mike. I think she said flirting. Yeah.

Jesus. You went from zero to 100. Well, I just thought, like, let's put all our cards on the table, you know? Yeah, put it out there, Mike. Well, you did. You put them all out there. Yes, dude. Yeah, Mike, I didn't say you were banging other people. I mean, I feel like I'm being accused here.

Yeah, but she said flirting, Mike. Yeah, well. Well, call a spade a spade. I know, I don't know. I just had a good time. This is such an intense conversation after a first date. Mike sounds like a sketchball. I don't know about a sketchball.

That's a little bit harsh. No, I agree. But both of you sound a little crazy on the phone right now to me. It's not my fault. I was brought into this on the radio. I was happy to just leave it alone, you know? That's true. I'll give you that.

Look, Deanna, I like you. I had a good time. And I obviously wouldn't be calling this radio station to get in touch with you if I was banging somebody else on the phone. Mike, stop it. We get it. We get it, Mike. Deanna, would you like to go on a second date with Mike? We will pay for it.

Assure you he's not banging anybody else at that bar. Please, Deanna, please go out with me again. I swear on my life, on my brother's life, on my mother's life, on my grandmother's life, that I was only going back into that bar to get my jacket. Wow. You hear that, Deanna? People will

die if Mike's lying. So, would you go out with him one more time? I mean, I don't want to hurt his mom. Okay. Yes. So, that's a yes. You'll go on a second date with Mike? Sure, yes. Okay. Sure, yes. Oh, Deanna,

that's amazing. Okay. Thank you. I promise you will not regret it. We'll have a great, great time. Okay. But keep the banging talk to a minimum. Awesome. Broken Jubal in the morning.

Got a text in at 78592 says, that guy is totally lying. He definitely went back to that bar to hit on other women. Yes, he was. If you missed today's second date update, that was taped while Brooke was still here. Jackie is filling in while she's out on maternity leave.

Mike wanted to call a girl named Deanna who wasn't calling back after their date. Apparently, while they were out on their first date, they kind of played a game where they would look at people and guess what they did for a living Sounds fun though. I like that whole thing. And then they'd go up and talk to those people and find out if they were right. Well after they left

each other for the evening apparently they made friends with some people and one of the girls texted her and was like hey that guy is back here again and he's totally hitting on everybody. So she didn't want to call him back because he figured that he was just a player and he went back to the same bar they were just hanging out at to hit on people and he swore that he forgot his coat there and he just ended up like hanging out and he doesn't know a lot of people and have a lot of friends so he was just having a good time

and she bought it and agreed to go out with him again. She had someone that was almost a stranger. Another female that went out of her way to say, girl, he's a dog. And she, I mean, normally girls, you know, that's the kind of girl you want to be friends with. But you know, Jackie, girls are haters like that. If I went back to a bar and I was just randomly having conversations with like five other women that night, somebody's gonna be like,

he's hitting on girls. That's just how it works. All I was doing was just trying to hang out with my friends, my new friends that I met, because I forgot my jacket. Yeah, no. Totally innocent. Anyway, they agreed to go out again. If you want to do a second date update, all you have to do is email the show, and we will call the person who didn't call you back. It is Friday, so Young Jeffries, Song of the Week, just a few minutes away at 810.
