Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update - Second Date Update PODCAST: Pizza Off

Episode Date: January 26, 2018

One thing we preach here at Brooke & Jubal in the Morning is that it's PERFECTLY OK to lie... Especially on the first date, I mean who wants someone to know the real you? Unfortunately, one of our listeners thinks she might have been TOO honest. Was it part of the problem? Yes, but not for the reasons you might think...See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

You know, sometimes when you do these second date updates, I'm less worried about the date, and I'm more interested in, like, how does somebody start talking to somebody at a bar? You know? Oh, yeah. Because, like, it's difficult as a dude to know how to approach somebody. And Edie's on the phone today. She met a guy named Russell. And what was the thing that Russell said to you, Edie, that got you interested?

Like, hey, you want me to buy you, like, a shot and we'll do a shot together? Wow, Jubal. No, no, that wasn't it. No? Not even in that voice? That's a really hot voice. It's shocking because that would be hard for anyone to turn down. What did he say to you?

He actually said, wow, I like your sparkly nails. Okay. Oh, okay. What did he say to you? He actually said, wow, I like your sparkly nails. Okay. Oh, okay. That's actually kind of nice because he's complimenting you without being creepy and noticing actually some detail about you. Other than, you know, your chest. You've got nice nails. You've got nice nails. Want to take a shot with me?

In a different voice. In a different voice, though. Oh, wow. And he was like, oh, I thought I was reliving the date all over again. Is it him? Is he on the line? Yeah. So tell us a little bit about Russell after he commented on your sparkly nails.

So we really just started talking, and we were just, you know, compatible. And so we kind of broke off and just started having conversations and a couple of drinks at the bar. And we were just having a really great time. You sound like immediately you went from sparkly nails into deep conversation. Well, kind of, yeah. So I was like, I'm surprised these guys don't notice the little things. And then he was like, oh, I grew up with sisters. And so we just went to childhood really fast.

Oh, cool. I like your nails. I grew up with sisters. I've never found love before. Straight into that kind of stuff. Well, kind of. And what did you like about your conversation with him? He just, like, really was listening, and just I felt like I was really being heard,

and he was just, like, commenting on things and just really noticing things about me. God, the standards are so low for dudes. All dudes have to do to really make an impact is listen. Yeah, really. Not be creepy. But listening is more than just blank staring and then waiting for your turn to talk. Right. Like he was really engaged in what you had to say. And he was obviously really interested in you as well. Anyway, so we were just talking and then we

got hungry. And so he's like, let's go get some food somewhere. So I'm like, great, let's go. So we decided on pizza because we both like pizza. And he asked me, okay, do you have like a favorite pizza place? And I said, yes, of course. I have the best pizza place in the state. And he's like, no, I'm pretty sure that I know the best pizza place around. So we decided to have a pizza off. What? Dude, that's a good date. Sounds pretty nice, actually. Yeah, I'm in. What do you do? So we went to his pizza place first, and he bought the slice, and then he fed it to me.

Fed it to you, actually. Yeah, that was his idea. And so he's feeding you pizza, and what are you thinking? This is awesome, or this is kind of weird, I can eat my own damn pizza? Well, that was, like, we agreed on that. Okay. Cool. So you agreed to feed each other the pizza at each of the places?

Okay, well, it sounds weird, but you're saying it like that. But those were the rules of the pizza. That's what we decided. It was just like fun and silly, and so those were the rules. Okay. It sounds weird. It doesn't sound weird. It sounds like you were a little drunk.

Well, maybe a little bit. So it's probably good you have somebody feeding you so you didn't get it all over yourself. Anyway. Hey, there you go. Who won the pizza off? Well, I won, obviously. We went to my place. I fed him the pizza.

I won hands down. Oh, nice. Really? He told you you won. So he's not calling you back because he's pissed that he lost to a woman? Well, maybe. I don't know why. Was there any awkward moments during your date? So, he's not calling you back because he's pissed that he lost to a woman? Well, maybe. I don't know why.

Was there any awkward moments during your date? Well, there's one thing that I keep replaying to myself. I'm like, maybe that's what it was. Maybe that's why he's being kind of weird. So, we're leaving, like walking back to my car, and he's like, hey, I had so much fun. I can't believe a girl like you is single. And so, I said, well, I'm not super single. What?

That's like more than a red flag. That's like a red banner, like a red explosion. Well, I know, but I explained, I explained. And so I was like, well, I am like dating someone, but we're not exclusive. We're just kind of dating. Why would you even bring that up if you're not exclusive and it's not a thing? Well, I don't know. It just came out.

And I'm thinking maybe that was a turnoff. Yeah, it could be if you think somebody pretty much has a boyfriend. Okay, so in my defense, he's not my boyfriend. I'm just dating. And I wanted to be just really open about that because it's not something I'm ashamed of. We're not in a committed relationship. Do you think he believed you, though? Because I feel like that's what cheaters say.

Like, well, I'm seeing somebody, but we're not exclusive. Well, I guess what do people say who aren't exclusive? Like, how do you answer that honestly? I was just trying to be honest. I'm dating around. Yeah, I'm dating around. I'm single. Well, I mean, that's basically what I said. Yeah.

I don't know. You brought up an individual person. I feel like that's different, but this is me. Does your husband know you're going to do a second? Cause I wouldn't feel right about it if he didn't. I mean, that's funny, but really I am single though. Like I, I am single. Okay. Well, here's a question then. Why do you want to call Russell and not the other guy that you've been dating? Do you like Russell better? Well, I don't know. We just had so much fun and we connected, I thought, so much that first night. But I just wanted to see, you know, if it was a really special connection, you know, see where it goes.

Okay. And does the other guy know about this since you're so honest with Russell? I have not mentioned it to him yet. Okay. Okay. We'll play a song, come back, and then call him and get your second date update, okay? Okay. All right, hang on.

Moving 92.5. Brooke and Jubal in the morning. Second date update. Right in the middle of a second date update, and if you're just joining us, Edie is on the phone, and Edie wants us to call a guy named Russell. Although, probably doesn't matter if Russell doesn't want to go out with her again because she's got kind of another boyfriend anyway. So he's got options. That's not really fair. Well, it's kind of the truth, Edie. A little bit. No, I'm really not exclusive with anybody. So I don't see what the big deal is. Well, either

way, we're about to call Russell and Edie met Russell out at a bar. They left the bar, and then they had a pizza off because they were talking about their favorite pizza places. They both went to each other's pizza place, had a slice. They fed each other their slices, which I think is kind of weird, but anyway, they did that. And the only awkward moment that Edie can think of is at the end of the night where she did tell him that she's kind of dating another guy, but she is single, but she shouldn't have told him that because that might be why he's not calling back. Yeah. So you don't think that I should have told him then?

Is that what it is? Well, I just think that that could be a reason he's not calling you back because if I went out with a girl and she said she was dating another guy, I might be like, oh, well, she doesn't really want to date me that bad. Yeah, I'm kind of with him on that.

Like, you should have just left it more vague is, I think, our only criticism. I just wanted to be, like, open and honest. If this is, like, really something special, I want to just start it, like, with a clean slate, just honesty. Yeah, see, that doesn't work. That's a lie.

That's not true. That's a great way to start a relationship, but does that mean that you're willing to totally ditch the other guy and just go out with him if that's what he wants you to do? Well, I mean, that would be down the line because we've only been on one date, and I just want him to go out with me again first. Nope. If we're going to do the second date update, Edie, I need you to commit to marriage with him right now. Otherwise, I can't do it. I need at least three more dates before I'm going to commit to marriage.

Okay, cool. All right. Well, I'm going to dial his phone number right now and see if we can figure out why he's not calling you back. Here we go. Okay, awesome. Hello? Hey, is this Russell? Yes, it is.

Hey, what's up, Russell? How are you? My name is Jubal, and i host a radio show called brook and jubel in the morning uh all right yeah just bragging about my job um i'm calling you today because one of our listeners sent us an email about you oh all right we do a segment on our show it's called the second day update so ed, the girl you went out with a little while ago, you met at a bar. She emailed us because she really liked hanging out with you, but now it seems like you don't want to go out again.

No, she didn't. Yeah, she did. Yeah, she did. No, no, no, no, no. Yeah, she did. Definitely did. Definitely. I mean, that's really nice.

I think she's being nice. No, I don't think she's really nice. I think she's being nice. What? No, I don't think she's being nice. I think she really liked you. Yeah. I don't know about that. Do you think that, I mean, she told us that she was dating somebody else, but they weren't exclusive. Did that put you off?

I mean, like, not at the time, but. But now it bothers you. Yeah. Yeah. Why all of a sudden? So she told you about the pizza off then? Yes, she did. Yeah.

Yeah. Okay. So we did this pizza competition. Hers was much better than mine. Okay. I'm sorry for your loss. Yeah. So after that night...

Thank you. So after that night, I decided to, like, go back to her pizza place because I thought it was great and I was going to pick up a slice. Oh. And as soon as I walked in, Edie was there with this other guy. Oh, shit. Oh, wow. Yeah, but she's single. I mean, and you don't even know that she's on a date, man.

It's her favorite pizza place. Of course she's going to be there, you guys. Everyone is freaking out for no reason. Yes, friends jose it happens i don't know that's sketchy yeah i mean their body language really felt like a date it didn't feel like friends it felt like it looked like a date could be a cousin i hold hands with my cousin but you guys even if it is a date who cares russell you're not in a relationship with her. You went on one date. You guys didn't even kiss. Yeah, sure.

But the thing is, is that this guy was like far, far more better looking than I will ever be. Ever be. Yeah. I mean, you knew how to dress. His clothes looked good. It was just, I mean, he was like a Disney prince. I mean, after seeing that, like, I couldn't ask her out again. Wait, so wait, you don't want to date her because the other guy she's kind of seen is better looking than you?

Yes. That is the dumbest thing I've ever heard. Look, like, I've seen this story before, and if you're going to put me up against, like, a gladiator, I'm done. Like, I can't put in, like, my time and my energy and, like, weeks and days to try to compete with this guy. Like, that's not going to happen. So you're just giving up the race before you even start running it.

Oh, man. Oh, yeah. I think that's ludicrous you know i mean this guy could be an idiot this guy could be a jerk this guy could be boring looks aren't everything yeah they're fun for a little while but they don't last you could be the long haul the marathon runner that wins the race russ well it's actually more than that because like they look good together they They look like a couple. They're like, like when you buy a frame and they're in the frame.

Right. Okay. So you're doing the world a favor by letting them date each other because they should be because they're both hot and they'll make hot babies too. They're going to have wonderful children. She is obviously not even that interested in that guy. If she was head over heels for this guy, she wouldn't have ever even gone out on a date children. She is obviously not even that interested in that guy. If she was head over heels for this guy,

she wouldn't have ever even gone out on a date with you, let alone contacted us to call you. I mean, it put a bad, just like a bad feeling in my stomach. Like I didn't even order pizza. Like I just turned around. Wow. You know,

it's bad when another dude is so hot, you lose your appetite. Right. I mean, that's just, it's just how it is. And like, if you talk to her again,

you know, I wish her the best in her future relationship. But it's just like, it's obvious. Okay, well, you can wish her the best yourself because Edie is on the other line listening and wants to talk to you, Russell. Hi, Russell. Oh, God. Hey, are you okay?

I'm so bad now that I'm hearing what happened. I mean, I'm fine. Are you? I don't know what to say. Hey, I feel really bad. I'm so sorry that you saw that. I had no idea. Were you on a date?

Yeah, it was a date. Oh, man. Was it with the other guy? It was the other guy. Yeah, it was the other guy. Well, congratulations, Edie. He sounds amazing. Oh, my gosh.

I totally knew it. I called it. Okay, so, I mean, it was a date, but it was just casual. Like, it wasn't a big deal i had so much fun with you the other night and so i was just really hoping that we could go out again i mean after seeing what else you're dating like i i don't know if i can't what else i i can't like that's all i'm going to be thinking about maybe eddie wants to slum it. Russell, you don't know? You guys, everybody. Edie, tell him what you think

is so attractive about him. Okay, Russell, you have no idea. Like, I dated, like, super wrestling guys in the past, and, like... I'm not feeling any better. I'm not feeling any better. Yeah.

Okay, okay. Here's the thing, though. I felt like we had something really special, and I just felt like we connected almost immediately, and we had, like, more depth in one date than I felt with, you know, other guys in the past. And, I mean, I don't want you to beat yourself up about any of this

because I think you're really good-looking, and I think you're really attractive, and, like, you have such a great personality that i just want to like spend more time with you and get to know you uh thanks um it's just it's it's i don't know like i feel like i'm a great fit for like i don't know like more for like a normal girl like you're really smoking and this dude was really smoking and i like, smoking people should be with smoking people. Like, no,

you have, you have to mix the attractiveness, Russ. Yeah. Throw people for a loop. Okay. I think you are an attractive guy. Like I think I was really attracted to you.

Like, I like Splendor. Like, your whole look and vibe is great. I think you're really attractive. Evie, like, thanks. Like, the compliments are great. But, like, I saw you guys together on this date, and, like, you guys were laughing and, like, could see that you guys were, like, adorable.

It makes sense. And it's like a romantic comedy at a pizza place. I can't. It sounds like Russell just wants to watch a reality show of Edie and whoever you're dating, Edie. I can't even see it anymore. I've got to move on. I can't.

I'm just really disappointed. I really thought that there was, there was something there, and I hope that I wasn't wasting my time going through all of this because I really hoped that we could reconnect and just, like, you know, see if we could be adorable together, too. Oh, come on, Russ. You hear that, Russell? Russell, would you go out on a second date with Edie?

We'll pay for it. I mean, yeah yeah i really would but if i was her i'd say no oh you're not her russ you're just answering for you she wants to go out with you so the choice is yours uh you know what i'll say yeah and we'll probably have a good time but i can just foresee like a day or two or a month or two, she's going to be like, why did I ever do that thing? Wow. Are you calling yourself that thing?

I am. Okay. Oh, my gosh. I think there could be something there. But just like have confidence. I mean, just don't worry about this other, you know, muscly guy. Just forget about him. You have so many great qualities and things that I really appreciate.

Yeah, my pizza feeding skills are just 100%. Exactly, Russell. I bet you that guy's body fat's so low he doesn't even eat pizza. You can eat all the pizza you want with Edie. That's right. I'm carb-friendly. Yeah. And you know what?

That's hot, Russ. That is hot right there. Brooke and Jubal in the morning. Joel, the holidays are a blast, but the financial hangover, that can be a huge bummer.
