Rook and Jubal's Second Date Update.
They say it ain't over until the fat lady sings.
Well, I don't know anything about the size of the woman in today's Second Date Update, but I do know two things.
She sang and it's over.
Oh, dang.
And now Nick is not getting a call back.
What's up, Nick?
That's kind of a harsh way to put it.
It's the only thing I can think of.
You said that you met this girl and she's a singer
and now she's not calling you back?
Yeah, yeah, I think I messed up, you know?
Okay, did you meet her at one of her gigs or something
or how'd you meet her?
So I was at a restaurant with some friends and she was performing there.
Right.
And I just thought,
okay,
in addition to being super cute,
she had this amazing voice,
right?
Yeah.
That's attractive.
It really is.
I mean,
there's plenty of attractive women,
whatever,
but the one to have a talent,
you know,
when a woman is talented,
there's something about it. It's just
a magnetism, and I'm drawn to that.
Tell me about it. I've always had a thing for
sword swallowers. Oh. Man.
Yeah. I don't know why.
I almost have a thing for them.
I mean... What's her name, by the
way? Her name is Gia. Gia.
I love that name. Yeah, I love the name, too.
You love everything about this girl.
Yeah, you know, I like her a lot.
That's why I'm upset she's not calling me back.
Okay.
So would you, like, wait until she was done with her gig, like, wait by her car like a groupie or something?
How'd you approach her?
No, no, no.
Okay, so she actually goes from table to table and things.
Like, you know how it's sort of a little embarrassing?
You're sitting there, and then they come right to your table.
Yeah.
You're like, who do I make eye contact with? Because I feel uncomfortable just staring at you the whole time.
Oh, do you want money? What do you want? So it wasn't like a show she was doing. She works for
the restaurant. Exactly. It's an Italian restaurant. Yeah. Okay. And so she comes to each
table and then I was just transfixed, you know, and she had a great voice and I thought I got to
talk to her. And so I waited until we were all done with dinner, and then I approached her,
and she was a really friendly, approachable, nice person.
Okay, and so did you just ask her out right on the spot?
Yeah, I just asked her if maybe we could go out later in the week, and she said yes.
Cool.
Awesome.
All right.
So what did you guys do?
We went out to dinner, and before we went, I had to go pick her up.
Okay, that's even a good sign that she had to go pick her up okay that's even
a good sign that she wanted to give you her address i guess yeah i don't know how i'd pick
her up without her address but well that she's like usually like you would meet at a restaurant
on a first date uh oh okay like that yeah like like she's she's comfortable with you enough
you don't seem creepy like you're going to get her address
And like just show up at random times
Or try to peer through her windows
You know what I mean?
So I go over there
You know she had recently moved in
Right?
And it was a nice place
And she asked if I could
You know like nail
Hang up some stuff
And you know
Oh you said nail
And I was like
Whoa
She moves fast
I like her.
Wait, she put you to work on some chores she had around the house?
Well, there was some nailing and some heavy lifting, taking stuff out of boxes and moving stuff around.
It was actually a lot more strenuous than I expected.
There was some heavy stuff, and I was actually sweating.
So you're no longer a date at this point.
You're hired help.
Uh-huh.
Just a glorified mover, basically.
Did you make her pay for dinner since you did all of her home chores?
Well, I mean, you know, I think most women would probably offer, but if that happened, I would decline.
But that's the thing.
We had a nice dinner, but then things sort of took a bad turn.
What do you mean?
What took a bad turn?
I mean, everything was going great.
You know, I mean, she's an amazing singer.
And I was telling her how great she was and this, that, the other.
And then I said, do you have any aspirations to becoming a real singer someday?
Oh.
Ouch, bro.
Ouch.
You said, do you have any aspirations of becoming a real singer? Oh, ouch, bro. Ouch. You said,
do you have any aspirations of becoming a real singer?
Oh,
wrong words.
Yeah.
And I,
I didn't mean,
you know,
I didn't mean like she couldn't sing or anything.
What I meant was,
you know,
maybe getting a band and doing it full time as opposed to,
you know,
in a restaurant.
Yeah.
Okay.
That's a slam though.
Like if I was singing at a restaurant and you said, do you have any plans of actually becoming a singer one day,
I'd be pretty pissed at you.
You know, I just phrased it wrong.
I mean, what I really meant was, you know,
that you want to be in theater, or maybe in a band on the road,
or, you know, Adele, or something like that.
Yeah, you could have just said, so...
Or Adele.
Do you want to be Adele?
How did she respond to it?
It was weird. It was like everything was going so great.
And then it just turned.
It just became this dark cloud.
And, you know, it just was awful.
You should have just said, like, so what are your aspirations for your singing career someday?
Instead of, like, taking a backhanded compliment.
I know.
I mean, if I had to do it over again I will totally phrase it differently and
artists are egotistical and and they're insecure and and okay well see now now you're calling her
egotistical and insecure I think you really just need to work on the way you say things man so
she seemed up she seemed you're right she seemed upset by your comment did you ever recover from
that no it's like that's the thing the more I tried to get out of it, it just got worse.
Was that it for your guys' date?
Yeah.
I mean, that was basically that.
And then, you know, we got the check and then I drove her home and that was, yeah.
No kiss or anything?
No.
You know, I was going to walk her to her door and all, but she said, I'm okay.
And, you know, she gave me a hug in the car, you know, not even on the street.
She gave me a car and then she, like, closed the car door.
I'm going to tell you, a car hug means that she's trying to get out of there as quick as possible.
Yeah, it was pretty obvious.
So, you know, I would just like to have a do-over on this.
I mean, I feel like I messed up.
Okay, well, we'll play a song, come back, call her, and then get your second date update, okay?
Okay, thanks a lot.
Thank you.
All right, man, just hang lot. Thank you. All right, man.
Just hang on.

Brooke and Jubal in the morning.
Second date update.
When you don't call some guy because he's got a lazy eye that's ignoring. When you don't call him back because he's bad in the sack.
That's ignoring.
You're wondering why I'm singing in Italian, right?
That's not in Italian.
That's in English.
Yeah, as close as you get.
You know what I'm saying.
You're right in the middle of your second date update,
and Nick is on the phone with us,
and Nick isn't getting a call back from an Italian singer.
Are you trying to steal his heart right now, Jubal?
Because he had a thing for that Italian singer,
but now he may have a thing for you.
Nick really liked her.
She was singing at a restaurant that she works at.
She's one of those people that goes around to the tables
at an Italian restaurant and kind of sings to people,
and he actually had the nerve to ask her out after he ate dinner.
They decided to go out, but he thinks everything went wrong because he kind of slammed her
job.
He was trying to give her a compliment and say like, oh, you should think about doing
bigger things with your singing.
He said, hey, Nick, how did you say it to her again?
I said, you know, do you maybe one day want to become a real singer?
A real singer.
And that was it. And he said after that, she kind of seemed a little cold. I said, you know, do you maybe one day want to become a real singer? A real singer.
And that was it.
And he said after that, she kind of seemed a little cold.
And he ended up just dropping her off at her house. And she gave him a side hug in the car.
And that was it.
Now she's not calling him back.
So we're going to try to get her on the phone and see if we can patch things up and maybe get him a second date.
And can I just suggest when we do talk to her, let's just kind of move past this, Nick, as quickly as possible.
Because from the sounds of it, you're really
good at giving backwards compliments
and I feel like if we just
dwell on it, you're just going to dig yourself deeper, man.
Yeah. Okay, yeah, you're right.
I'll try to keep my mouth shut
and, you know, hopefully you guys can give me a second date.
Yeah. Okay. We'll give her
all the compliments and then you can just
make it seem like it came from you, okay?
Okay, cool.
Alright, here we go. I'm going to dial her phone number right now.
Hello?
Hi, can I speak to Gia, please?
This is Gia. Hey, what's up,
Gia? How are you? This is Jubal from Brook and Jubal
in the morning. Wait,
sorry, who? Jubal from Brook and Jubal
in the morning. Like, sorry, who? Jubal from Brooke and Jubal in the morning.
Like the radio show?
Yeah.
Cool.
You're actually familiar with the show.
Yeah, I've heard of the show.
I don't listen to it.
Hey, you don't need to listen to it. Don't worry about it.
The fact that you even knew our names is enough.
I appreciate that, Gia.
Why are you calling me?
I'm calling you today because one of our listeners actually emailed us about you. Okay. I appreciate that, Gia. Why are you calling me?
I'm calling you today because one of our listeners actually emailed us about you.
Okay.
His name is Nick, and Nick recently asked you out.
Yeah, Nick.
Oh, my God.
Oh, you remember Nick.
Nick is ringing a bell, it sounds like.
Oh, God.
Really?
Yes, Nick wanted us to call you because he says you guys went out on a date the other day and now you're not calling him back.
Yeah.
He had the nicest things to say about you, though.
Really?
He told us that you were so talented, he loved your name, you were beautiful.
Really?
Yeah.
Yeah, he did.
And that's why he asked us to call you because he wants to
know why you're not getting back to him. Are you sure we're talking about the same Nick? Yeah,
I think so. He said that he met you when you were working at the restaurant singing. He came up and
asked you out. He does feel like he sort of slammed your job at some point and he feels bad about that um yeah yeah that's true okay well we
talked to nick about your date and we asked him if there's anything that could have gone wrong
and he said he was trying to compliment you and say like man you're a really good singer do you
ever want to get like what's your what's your biggest aspiration and the way he said it i guess
was hey do you ever think you want a real singing job because you sing at a restaurant? Yeah, it was actually pretty offensive. I mean,
I don't know that he meant it to be offensive, but it's definitely not the right thing to say.
Is that why I mean, is that why you don't want to see him again?
Pretty much. I mean, it just seems like he didn't like me a whole lot. Really? He didn't
like you? I mean, just from one comment that you took the wrong way? Well, sorry, I don't want to
put that on you. I don't want to put that on you. He said it the wrong way. You took it how he said
it. I assumed that he meant what he said, but there was more than one comment. He kept doing
that. What else did he say? I mean, it was just like, he said, you're really good at what you're singing, but, you know, maybe you should try doing cooler music.
Like, maybe that's why you're not successful.
Cooler.
Why you're not?
Because it's music no one wants to hear.
Oh, wow.
Wow.
That sounds like straight up rude to me.
He said you weren't successful.
Cooler music.
Exactly. sounds like straight up rude to me cooler music and exactly i'm guessing you didn't ask for his critique either that he was just offering this to you no i didn't ask for his critique and i like
singing classical music yeah wow that's what i'm good at apparently nick doesn't think it's cool
enough though and apparently he doesn't like everything about the way i look and he told me he's not usually into green-eyed girls but somehow he can dig it with me or
something like that oh dude like i get a pass for having green eyes oh my god and that was him
trying to say you have beautiful eyes maybe uh That's not what it sounded like.
Oh my God, no wonder.
Did you ever bring up to him
the fact that he was just
insulting you over and over again?
I mean, what was I supposed to say?
I tried to assume
he was trying to compliment me,
but it still sounded really insulting.
Yeah, you don't want to be around
a dude like that all the time.
It was an exhausting night.
I mean, even if he's trying to be nice, I have to sit there and smile like I'm having fun while
he's hurling insults at me. Hey, it's me, Nick. I need to talk to you. Nick, you're supposed to wait.
I'm sorry. I can't wait. I got to talk to her now.
Gia, Nick's on the phone and wants to talk to you. Sorry, I didn't tell you that before.
Are you kidding me right now?
Sorry.
No.
No, no, they're not kidding you, Gia.
And I'm sorry, but, I mean, I have to talk to you.
Why?
I just, look, I didn't, I wasn't trying to insult you.
You know, it just came out wrong. And I think you're just talented and gorgeous and, you know, I mean, you're an amazing singer.
And all I meant was, you know, did you want to maybe, you know, take this on the road or go do this like a profession instead of being, you know, like a lounge singer?
A profession.
A lounge singer?
You just did it again right there.
A profession.
What?
You think I'm not doing this as a profession right now?
You think my job is just a hobby, but I'm not a professional?
No, I mean, I didn't.
Okay, that came out wrong.
But, you know, I mean, look, I mean.
It did.
Okay, I'm sorry.
It's just, you know, I'm thinking, you know, you have the talent to become,
I don't know, like a huge, like Adele or, you know,
some huge touring singer that plays stadiums.
That's kind of what I meant.
I mean, I meant it as a compliment.
And, you know, if you just commit yourself to doing that, I seriously think you can make it.
Make it.
Like, I'm not serious unless I achieve, you know, like a national tour.
That's your measure of success.
Right.
No, no, no.
I'm just saying, you know, I mean, I'm just saying, you know, are you happy?
Oh, my God.
Nick, you've got to stop, man.
Nick, you've got to stop, man.
Nick, you're doing a terrible job here, man.
I mean, you're basically saying, like, for instance, you can't be a scientist unless you're Stephen Hawking.
Like, there's all sorts of people that do professions.
You need to respect what she's doing, man.
I do respect her. I think she's amazing. I'm trying to tell her she's doing, man. I do respect her. I think
she's amazing. I'm trying to tell her she's awesome and not, you know, I don't think she's
hearing that. I don't think so. No, I'm not hearing that because what you're actually telling me is
that I'm not doing it right, but I haven't succeeded yet. You know, okay, you know, all right.
If you're happy, you know, singing in the restaurant, and that's, I mean, is that what you want to,
that's how far you want to take your singing career?
Is that right?
That's so far.
Are you accusing me of giving up because I sing in a restaurant?
Right?
No, no, I'm just saying, you know, are you, have you taken your talent,
which is amazing, as far as you want to go?
As far.
So we're still talking about distances.
Like, I haven't gone far enough.
No, Jubal, could you please, could you tell what I'm trying to say?
You know what I'm trying to say, right?
I think I know what you're trying to say.
And you're trying to say that you think that she's an amazing singer.
And if she wanted to, she could take over the world with her voice.
And you've got to understand, Nick, on her side,
she wants to be dating someone who's proud of what she does.
I am proud.
I'd give anything to be able to sing like that.
I mean, I'd give anything to have that sort of talent that she has.
She's amazing.
There you go.
That was good.
That was nice.
What do you think about that, Gia?
We've made so much improvement.
Yeah, that sounded really nice.
And it only took, what, what was it, five minutes and three coaches to get you to the next level.
A little bit of coaching and we got you there, Nick.
Well, thank you, I guess.
I guess you can finally hear what I'm saying.
Oh, boy.
A little shock there.
I'm just going to try to put you out of your misery, Nick.
Dang.
Gia, would you like to go out with Nick one more time for a second date?
We will pay for it.
I don't think so.
Yeah.
I figured.
This is just too tiring to have to sit through an entire evening of waiting through this
without someone to mediate and translate.
I just don't want to do that again.
What if I came along and helped translate, Nick?
No.
Do you like that idea? I don't think so to do that again. What if I came along and helped translate, Nick? No. Do you like that idea?
I don't think so, no.
No?
No.
Yeah, I, okay, well, sorry, thanks.
Thanks, Gia, I appreciate it.
And, you know, I think one day you're going to be a great singer, you know.
You did it again.
God, this is hopeless.
She's already dead.
Broken Jubal in the morning.
Texting at 78592.
It says, OMG, can you please let me help coach Nick to not come off like a total a-hole?
We're talking about today's second date update.
This dude Nick wanted to call a girl named Gia.
They met because she was actually singing at a restaurant.
She works at an Italian restaurant and goes around to tables and sings opera.
And they went out on a restaurant. She works at an Italian restaurant and goes around to tables and sings opera. And they went out on a date.
Everything was cool,
except Nick kept complimenting her
but slamming her at the same time.
Yeah.
They'd be like,
oh, cool,
so you've been singing opera
at that restaurant for a long time now.
Are you ever going to become
like a real singer?
He was like the king
of the backhanded compliments.
Yeah, the more he talked,
the more he dug himself into a hole.
It's like, man,
don't add the butt to anything.
Or Anne,
just leave it as
you're a really great singer.
Boom.
Yeah, he wouldn't stop
even at the end of it.
He's like,
I think you're
a really great singer
and you'll make
an even better singer someday.
And you're like, no.
No.
Just say she's a good singer.
She's like,
I already make a living
off of this.
What a cute hobby.
She does opera
and he's like,
you ever gonna sing
anything cool? Yeah. He just didn She does opera and he's like, you ever gonna sing anything cool?
Yeah.
He just didn't get it
and he also didn't get a second date
because she didn't want to go out with him again.
Remember, 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.
