Ruck and Jubels, second date update. We get a lot of emails in for the second date update that describe people going on some pretty strange dates. And normally, they sound terrible to me. I always think that they're really bad ideas. And today's is one of those, but it actually sounds really cool to me. Okay. So it's probably super weird. Then it's like they went to a cemetery and dug up old bodies.

For some people, they might feel like it's a cemetery. They went to an airport. They weren't flying anywhere, but they went to the airport for their date. You can't even get into the good restaurants if you don't have a ticket. We'll get into what specifically they did at the airport in just a second. But first, I want to find out more about the dude she went out with. Her name's Hillary. Hillary, what's up?

Hi, guys. How are you? Not too bad. This sounds so weird. Was the airport date your idea or his idea? It kind of came out between the both of us organically. Really? We'll get to the date in just a second because it's weird.

But anyway, the dude that you want to call today, what's his name? His name is Wobb. Wobb? With a W? Yeah, it sounded like that. Wobb. Well, Rob. Rob.

Okay. I don't know. My name is Jubal. I can't judge somebody if their name is Wob. So I thought that's what his name was. How did you meet Rob? I met Rob online on all my dating sites. Okay.

And what struck you about him? Well, we had been talking for, gosh, about like four weeks online. And through that, like he has a really sarcastic sense of humor and so do I. So we were just able to kind of have a good time going back and forth. And chatting for like four weeks is a long time before you actually go out. Yeah. You know, you want to kind of take your time getting to know somebody before you kind of meet in person. Plus, I'm a single mom.

So that's something that I just I'm very cautious about before I meet somebody in person. Well, and you have like one day available in the next six months to actually probably hang out. Right, right. Okay, so you guys finally connected. And now I want to hear about your date. So, you know, kind of we're going back and forth. And we were a little bit bored with just the typical coffee date or dinner date, because it's kind of an interview style. And we had already got to know a lot about each other beforehand. So we thought it would be cool to meet at the airport and people watch and make up stories about them and their life and where they were going and where they were coming from. So, OK, I love it.

So you went to the airport to judge people? A little bit. Okay. I'm in airports all the time. I love the airport for that specific reason because there's so many different stories in there and you don't know where people are going and I like to make up things in my head too.

It'd be fun to do it with somebody else though. Yeah. And we went specifically to the arrivals gate. So there was like a girl there that was holding up a sign. She hadn't seen her boyfriend. And the story we made was that she hadn't seen her boyfriend in like six months. So she was all dressed up and had this sign. It had like a home cooked dinner.

Oh, that's so cute. Yeah. We were there because we wanted to see like the people that were happy to see people coming, people that were frustrated wherever they were going. Yeah, that's what I think, too. So many pissed off people walking out of the airport. So, wait, how was your time with him, though? Did you get to know him better through this process?

I did a little bit. You know, obviously seeing somebody in person and, like, enjoying their mannerisms, you don't have that opportunity over the phone. So that was cool. He looked like his pictures. But, yeah, it was fun. It was fun to see like how I felt being around him first. And I started to get a little giddy and like girlish.

I kept like hitting him in the arm. So I was like, why am I hitting this guy? You're like, oh my God, I'm in third grade all over again. No, we had a really great time. But there was kind of like an awkward thing that he said. What did he say? Well, there is this guy who, it was pretty clear he was a bodybuilder, like this huge hunk of a man that came through. And Rob leaned to me, and he was like, oh, I bet that guy's, you know, coming into town to cheat on his wife, and he's looking for his mistress right now.

Whoa. you know, coming into town to cheat on his wife and he's looking for his mistress right now. And it threw me off because I had shared with him that one of my exes is a bodybuilder who had cheated on me. Oh. So. You shared with him before he made that comparison? Yeah, like in passing. I mean, we hadn't gone through like the details of the depths of our past relationships,

but I had said it in passing i feel like that's kind of rude i don't know if he was like making that his passion was kind of like a haha remember or if he just completely spaced and just said it like on his own what did he say what was his response was he embarrassed he was embarrassed i mean we had a great rest of the time we kind of it was a little awkward moment. So in my head, I'm thinking maybe he's comparing himself to that guy we saw at the airport because they look totally different. Yeah, but we hate that guy. He cheated on you.

Right. We hate him. We don't like him at all. But he had a really great body. Okay. I see. I know if I was Rob, the dude you were on a date with, and I made a comparison like that, I would have been sitting there awkwardly because I would have felt bad.

I'd have been like, damn, I didn't mean to bring that up. Yeah, it definitely was a little awkward, but I felt like we got back on track. Like, later on, we left the airport, we went and got some drinks. After drinks, we shared some smooching. This all sounds so positive. Yeah. Yeah. And so, afterward, we've had a phone phone call and we've texted a little bit.

And I feel like he's kind of pulling away, which is fine because we're not, you know, in this committed relationship. But if you're like somebody and you kind of want to spend more time with them, I would think that you would put a little bit more effort and see them more than just once in person. So you think he's blowing you off? Yes. I think he is blowing me off. Okay. Well, we'll play a song, come back, and call him and get your second date update, all right?

Okay, cool. Okay, hang on. Moving 92.5. Brooke and Jubal in the Morning's Second Date Update. Hello, ladies and gentlemen. This is your Crofton Jubal flag speaking. We're about to embark on a second date update. Just want to let you know things could get a little bumpy and we might experience some turbulence.

So we encourage you to keep your seatbelt on through the whole flight, even if the sign is illuminated. Also, never flown a plane before, so we're probably going to crash and die. Wait, what did you just say? Probably going to crash and die because I've never flown a plane. Dang it. Why did I introduce the second part of today's Second Date Update like that? Well, it's because Hillary is on the phone, and she went on a date with a dude named Rob, and their first date was to the airport.

They actually met up online, went to the airport to sit there while people were arriving, and then they had fun talking about people and making up stories of why they were coming into town. And she said it was great, except there was an awkward moment when some big buff bodybuilder dude walked off. And Rob, her date, was like, I bet you he's getting into town to see his mistress to cheat on his wife. And it seems like Rob may have forgotten that Hillary actually had something like that happen to her.

With a bodybuilder. And then it was all awkward after he brought that up for a little bit. And Hillary's not sure if he was just feeling bad or what. Anyway, they texted back and forth a little bit. And now he's not really getting back to her. So we're about to call him and find out why. I mean, you said you're a single mom. He knew that going into the date, right?

Oh, yeah. That's not anything that I hid that was on my profile. We talked about it. Something else that could have shocked him. Yeah, I don't know. I mean, it's hard to find good guys out there and connect with. So it's totally blown my mind because there was a spark. I just don't know what's going on.

All right, well, see if we can get him on the phone and maybe get that spark to grow into a big, huge flame again. Whoa. Why are you so weird when you say things like that? Oxygen helps fire, so I'm going to blow on his spark a little bit. Don't blow on anybody's anything. Leave his spark alone. I'm dialing his phone right now, Hillary. Thank you.

Hello? Hi, is this Rob? Yeah, is this Rob? This is Jubal from the radio show Brooke and Jubal in the Morning. I'm not interested if you're trying to sell me something. No, I promise you I'm not trying to sell you anything. I'm calling from a radio show.

Why are you calling me? Because we do a segment on our show. It's called The Second Date Update, and you went out with a woman named Hillary recently. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. Oh, wow. What recently? Yeah, yeah. Yeah. Oh, wow. What a positive response, Rob.

So Hillary emailed us and told us about your date, and we said that we would try to figure out what happened. Do you have a minute to talk about that? I guess so. Okay. Well, she said you've texted a little bit, and you've talked a little bit on the phone. Are you blowing her off? I mean, yeah, I guess so.

I mean, I don't know how to say this, but yes, I am. It sounds like, I mean, from her description, you guys had a lovely time and a great connection. We did. I mean, Hillary, she's a really cool lady and I liked spending time with her that day. I just don't really see a future with us, though. Can you tell us why? She really wants to know.

I mean, I don't want to hurt her feelings. This isn't probably the best place to get into that. Yeah, but it's the place she chose to do it. Before anybody does a second date update, we always tell them they might hear something they don't want to hear. Yeah. And she sounds like a really strong, confident woman.

I mean, even if you do hurt her feelings, I don't think you're going to destroy her or anything. Yeah, no, she is. You're right. Okay, every time we've been in contact, you know, it hasn't been so good, like every time. What does that mean? So we met on our date.

She brought a box of Girl Scout cookies because she has a daughter who is selling them. And so I'm like, yeah, okay, and I bought a box. Okay. But, like, every time we've talked, like in the phone call and all in all the texts, she brings up the cookies every time. Do you want another box of cookies? Would you like more cookies? Enough of the cookies. She's just trying to sell you Girl Scout cookies nonstop.

What? Every time we've talked. So wait, you already bought a box and then she wants you to buy more? Yeah. I've never dated anyone with a kid before, but I tell you what, they're in the Girl Scouts. I mean, I love kids. It's not a big problem. They're in the Girl Scouts.

I'm not interested. Oh, it's like a scam. Rob, maybe she's just using it to, I don't know, have something in common with you because you obviously enjoyed the Girl Scout cookies. Like a way to like jumpstart conversation I listen we've talked on the phone once and we've texted numerous times and every single time she's bringing up the damn thick mince or whatever they are I wish that thick mince too yeah they should so she's just like a crazy Girl Scout mom. Oh, well, you called her that.

I would never call her that, okay? You said that, not me. I'm just saying I don't want any more cookies. Okay. Well, Rob, we can give her that information because she's actually on the other line listening and wants to talk to you. No, that's not true, is it? Yes, it is true.

Hey, Rob. Hillary. Hey, Hillary. Well, I didn't know the Girl Scout cookies were such a prominent part of our conversations. I'm sorry for that. But who doesn't love Girl Scout cookies cookies so that's a little weird always selling i i do like any kind of cookies but i don't want boxes and boxes and boxes of them okay okay wait wait first hold on a second it's only seasonal that these things are ever sold so it's not like

this is something that you would be buying over and over and over and over again. So most people like to buy a lot of boxes and put them in the freezer because they love them so much. They want to hoard them throughout the year. We have people that are asking us over and over again, do you have more Girl Scout cookies? And so I kept giving you the opportunity if you wanted to buy more. We had more before we sold out.

I was very aware that you had cookies. I mean, you know, Hillary, even from your text, you were like, my daughter's going for the record in sales. It would be great if you bought a whole bunch. Oh. Well, I mean, as Girl Scouts, it's a really great thing because it promotes leadership. It promotes community and self-worth. So that's something that we, I mean, as Girl Scouts, it's a really great thing because it promotes leadership. It promotes community and self-worth. So that's something that we, I mean, I want to support that. But yeah, there's prizes if you're the top seller and you're true.

And I just didn't know that you hated the Girl Scouts. I don't hate the Girl Scouts. You said that. I never said that. But you bought one box. I mean, who buys one box of Girl Scouts. You said that. I never said that. But you bought one box. I mean, who buys one box of Girl Scouts cookies? Somebody who only wants one box?

That's ridiculous logic. I think you have to buy ten at least every time. At least. Oh, so you agree with that, Hillary. Hillary's got me wanting to buy cookies right now. You are a good saleswoman, Hillary. I literally have three more boxes left. So if you want them, like let me know and I can get them.

Okay, well, let's do that later. Let's focus on trying to get another date with Rob, Hillary. Remember the goal. Wow, I feel like you haven't given the cookies a fair shot. Think of the cookies. Hillary, Hillary, are you still interested in going out with Rob again? You know, I'm torn because I feel like if it really was the cookies, why didn't he say something about that ahead of time?

Because literally now I feel like an idiot that I've been going on and on and on about these cookies. But you guys realize if you would have met outside of Girl Scout cookie season, none of this would have been an issue and you would be on a second date already. Maybe a third or a fourth by this time. Exactly. Thank you. Yeah, so, you know, Girl Scout season comes around again and then I'm hanging out with, you know,

a car salesman trying to make quota. Wait, but then we would have been together for a whole year and you would have fallen in love with me and fallen in love with the Girl Scouts and understood what this is all about. You would have been peddling cookies too is what she's saying. You wait one year and you're going to be hawking those things like nobody's business.

I don't know. Maybe you guys are right. Maybe I'm missing something. I have no idea. Okay. Well, Rob, do you want to try to find out? Would you like to go on a second date with Hillary? We'll pay for it.

Jeez. You know, Hillary, we got along really great in our date. out would you like to go on a second date with hillary we'll pay for it geez uh you know hillary we we got along really great in our date and uh how about when girl scout cookie season ends we'll get together hey that's a compromise rob if you can't take me during girl scout cookie selling season i don't think we are a fit. You can't handle me at my worst. You don't deserve me at my best. I'm kind of with you on that one, Hillary.

Exactly. Wait a second. So you called a radio station to call me to see if we'll go out again. And I agreed, even with the damn Girl Scout cookies. And you said no? Because Girl Scouts are for life. Like, you can't just cut that off during a season.

And the fact that it was this big of a deal to you, like, I can't move forward with that. Oh. What am I supposed to tell my daughter about you, that you don't support her hopes and dreams? Wow. That's not true. I bought a box of cookies. I bought a box of cookies. I bought a box of cookies. One box, Rob.

One box. Nobody does that. Yeah, I don't know exactly what just happened, but yeah, we won't go out. That's fine. I don't care. Okay. Well, Hillary, I'm sorry you didn't get a second date, but at least you know why now. Yeah, I mean, that's fine, whatever.

But from what we were talking about earlier, I do still have those three boxes if anybody has any problems. Just email us. We'll see if we can get those three boxes sold. I'm in if there's Samoas. Broken Jubal in the morning. Joel, the holidays are a blast, but the financial hangover, that can be a huge bummer if If you are out there and you're
