Okay.
About knowing and going and snowing.

Flowing.
I'm sure there's some about growing.
Frozen, let it going.
Yeah.
There we go.
One of our listeners, Johnny, is on the phone with us because he said he had one of those
feelings during his date where he just knew something was special about the woman he was with.
Oh, I love these.
That's why he contacted us.
What's up, Johnny?
Thanks for having me, guys.
I really appreciate it.
So I love these romantic stories, but there's also, it makes me so nervous because there's so much on the line.
Like with normal second daters, they're like, yeah, we went out once.
They're not calling me back.
You know, you don't lose a whole lot.
But Johnny, it sounds like you're already invested.
Yeah, I just felt this strong connection.
Her name's Maya, by the way.
We met on a dating app.
We didn't ask for her name.
Do not give us her name.
We like nameless people.
Play by our rules.
So sorry.
Her name's Maya.
That's cool.
Yeah, we met on one of the dating apps.
And then instantly, she just had such a unique look.
This is something that I really like.
She didn't have perfect teeth.
And I really like that.
Okay.
You like crooked teeth.
Yeah, exactly.
You should go to England sometime, man.
You would love it over there.
I mean, it just shows to me that she's not rich.
She didn't have dental work done. She's not too full of herself. She's to me that, like, she's not rich. She didn't have, like, dental work done.
She's not too full of herself.
She's not bougie, you know?
Right.
Okay.
And she's not caught up in, like, aesthetics or, you know, whatever.
Yeah.
Or she doesn't have a dental plan.
Yeah, that too.
Who knows?
Or she likes her teeth.
Yeah.
Could be that simple.
So what did you and Maya do for your date?
So it was supposed to be just, like, a quick coffee date, you know?
But it went so well. We just bonded.
We kept talking about how our parents used to take us to baseball games.
And it might have even been that we were at a couple of the same games and just never even knew it.
Oh, that's cute.
Yeah, it was really, I don't know.
I really liked it.
And we ended up hanging out even more then.
Like afterwards, I was like, do you want to just kind of go to the park?
So we went to the park.
We rented tandem bikes. And she was like, yeah, she was like do you want to just kind of go to the park so we went to the park we rented a tandem bikes and she's like yeah she's like really into it i mean tandem bikes always sound like
they're a romantic idea but i don't know if they're actually romantic in practice because i
think about riding a bike and sweating and heavy breathing i think it's cute but like two minutes
in i'd be like okay this is a bad idea was it was it romantic johnny i think the idea of it was more
romantic like i had fun because i was with her but to be honest like now that you say it like
i was sitting in the back and she was in the front okay good call why is that a good call dude you
don't want the girl sitting behind you one you can't see around a dude very well right because
you guys are taller typically and two exactly like you just you don't know like if you have like crack sweat or something
like you just don't need to be concentrating on that for the entire time i mean your pants are
hanging down too low maybe your like little hairy crack is hanging out i don't know there's just a
lot of variables there and it's smart to put the girl in front i have a feeling that you have some
experience with this i mean i've just i've thought this this out. I have. So how did it go on the tandem bike? So we were pedaling around the park
and this group of teenagers were there and they started kind of making fun of our tandem bike.
What do you say at someone that's like mean about a tandem bike? Ha ha, you found love.
What kind of insults could you possibly throw?
Losers. I think they're just
unhappy people in their own lives.
But when we
circled around them, we ran into them again
and I kind of felt like I have to defend
her honor. I can't let them call her a
loser or anything like that or us.
I threw a stick at one of them.
You threw a stick at the teenagers?
Just to scare them, not to injure them.
Nobody was injured.
I mean, I would have gone with just ignoring them
because they're teenagers, but
I'm sure they'll never call
out anybody on a tandem bike again
after that stick incident.
Scare them to the core.
So how did this date end?
So basically, we just rode around for a little bit more,
called it a day, but we kept in touch
via text. Like I really felt a strong
connection. And then she said she was
going to go out of town for a few days to be with her
folks. But now it's been two
weeks and I haven't heard anything
back. I'm almost wondering, did I scare
her away when I threw the stick more than
the kid? That could be. I mean,
either that or I mean, it could be just as simple as she didn't feel as strongly
as you did.
You know, sometimes people have a hard time judging that when they're overly interested.
Right.
Was there like a kiss or a hug at the end of the date?
There was a hug and a kiss on the cheek.
That's sweet.
That's always a good sign.
Yeah.
And it was a day date.
You know, it's kind of weird to go in for a full
make-out session on a day date. Especially after a bike
ride. Yeah. Speak for yourself,
Brooke. Okay.
Parks make you
excited, apparently. Yeah.
That's why he's not allowed on them anymore.
So,
alright, well, here's what we're gonna do
for you, Johnny. We're gonna play a song, we'll come back,
and we'll call Maya, and we'll call Maya,
and we'll try and get you your second date update, okay?
Sounds great.
All right, hold on.
All right, if you're just tuning in for the second date update,
we're on the phone with a guy named Johnny.
And Johnny sounds like your all-American guy.
Yeah, for sure.
I mean, he loves baseball, he loves tandem bikes,
he loves throwing sticks at rowdy teens in public parks.
Oh, come on.
But most of all, Johnny likes a woman named Maya,
who he met online and had an instant connection with.
He wants to know why she's not calling him back.
Johnny, have you considered that maybe she met a guy with a bigger bike.
Jeffrey, it's not the size of the bike, okay?
It's how you drive it.
Okay, maybe a guy with a bigger stick then.
Okay.
We had a tandem bike.
That's a pretty big bike.
Oh, he doesn't get it.
That's a good point, Johnny.
Real good point.
Try fitting that bike into her trunk. Yeah.
Johnny, you know, I am rooting for you in this.
I just want to let you know.
I really hope that you get another date with this girl.
And I hope that it just comes to the fact where she said that she was going to visit her parents.
And maybe she extended her stay for two weeks.
And that's why she hasn't called you.
Like, I haven't felt this way about anybody in a long time.
So hopefully that's the case.
I mean, we're going to try and get you back on that tandem bike.
Fingers crossed.
Hopefully you're not by yourself.
That'd be sad.
Okay, here we go.
I'm dialing the number.
Hello?
Hi, can I speak to Maya, please? Yes, speaking. Hi, Maya. Hello?
Hi, can I speak to Maya, please?
Yes, speaking.
Hi, Maya.
My name is Jeffrey from the radio show Brooke and Jeffrey in the Morning.
I'm hoping you have a second to talk with us.
Okay.
We're doing something called a second date update.
It's a segment we do on our show
where if you go out on a date with somebody
and afterwards, if they're not calling you back,
you can email us and we'll reach out to that person for you
to try and figure out the reason why.
Yeah.
Okay, so you're calling me then?
Yes.
That's how this works.
And I'm calling you about a guy that you recently went out with.
His name's Johnny.
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
I'm trying to read your emotions and I'm having a hard time here.
What did you think about Johnny?
Um, I don't know.
It was fine.
Hmm.
Yeah, because Johnny told us about your date a little bit,
because he mentioned you guys got coffee together,
and it went so well, according to him,
that you went to a park and rode some tandem bikes.
And was that fun?
Yeah, I mean, the coffee was nice.
He told you a lot, huh?
Yeah, I mean, he had a lot of kind things to say about you.
He really thinks that you're a really special person.
That's nice.
I don't...
This is just weird for me that he told you about our date i understand it's a weird situation yeah on the radio we get that he didn't share anything too personal i mean
he just really wants to understand why you guys haven't gone out again i mean was there an incident
that happened or did he say something kind of weird or off-putting?
I don't know if he told you that the whole thing with the teenagers,
like there were these kids that were kind of giving us a bad time.
Yeah, he told us about that.
And then he threw a stick at them to defend your honor.
Oh, he told you that.
Okay, yeah.
Did that impress you?
No. No.
What, trying to beat up teenagers with a stick?
Oh, you are quick to violence.
I think I want another date.
Yeah.
I think he actually kind of regretted that a little bit.
Like, he knew that that was maybe silly that he did that.
But he wasn't trying to hurt anyone.
Just a reaction.
Yeah, I mean, it was, like, super weird when he did it.
And then, like, we both like baseball baseball and his throw was really wimpy
that was the more awkward part to be honest with you really i mean that was a little sissy throw
i'm not gonna lie underhand it oh my god i will say growing up playing baseball it is kind of a
manly sign if a guy can throw a baseball or a girl like anybody like i would agree like
watching someone who's bad at throwing a baseball throw it is maybe the most i mean it's an instant
turn off yeah like a limp wrist a weird elbow all your respect is gone or like a weird grunt like
but give him a break he was on a bicycle when he was throwing, right? It's a funny visual, though.
It is, but is that really a reason to not call a guy back for a date?
Well, no.
I mean, after we said goodbye, I was getting in my car,
and I saw him jogging back to the park.
So I thought that he might go beat up one of the teenagers or something.
Oh, no, not cool.
Please don't tell me he did that.
Yeah, that is over the line.
Did you follow him?
Did you drive around to see?
Well, I kind of found a tree and I hid behind it.
And I was looking.
And he did go back to the group.
And I got kind of scared.
But instead of fighting with them, I started vaping with them. with them did you go out with an undercover
teenager didn't know it what's up bros you got any juice i got my jewel right here let's go
are you joking i'm not joking you're joking he wasn't vaping he went with the teenagers and was
like chilling with them and passing around vapes, which is like
super. What? Strawberry clouds,
bro. Oh my god.
So wait, what do you
think? What do you think?
Like he went back to like apologize
and then that turned into like a
love session or? I don't know
if he's like actually a really young
guy and he like knew them
and he just lied on the dating
app like i don't know i don't know either maya but i do know one way we can find out okay we can
just ask him directly because i need to tell you he's been on the phone yeah johnny hey so you weren't supposed to
see that that's really embarrassing i mean yeah i did do everything she said but it's not what it
seems like i just wanted to make sure i didn't scare them so much. So I just wanted to go apologize and like a peace treaty to smoke a little vape.
Like a peace pipe but instead of vape?
Yeah.
Is that really what happened?
Yeah, I just felt bad that they might be scared and I didn't want that to turn into like a psychological issue for them
where they're scared of going to the park that an old man on a tandem bike might throw a stick at them so you didn't know my maya what do you think i mean okay so hi johnny um
how old are you like legitimately the same age on my dating app i wouldn't lie about like everything
is true remember that i i will say now that she brings it up, Johnny, you do sound kind of young.
Yeah.
And you brought her to a coffee shop.
You guys didn't have alcohol.
Like, that's another indication.
Are you 21?
Do you have TikTok?
This is the real test.
I am 21, and I do have TikTok.
I don't know.
Brooke has it, too.
So how old are you, Johnny?
I'm 25.
What year were you born?
You're not going to trick me with this.
I don't want to feel like this guy who's lying.
Answer it.
Well, if you're 25, then you'll know what year you were born.
I can't do the math.
I trust him.
I know.
I can't do the math either.
Dang it.
He got us.
It doesn't matter.
Maya, where are you at with this?
Do you believe him?
I mean, if you're not a teenager, why are you just vaping with random teenagers you threw a stick at?
It's not a good look for a 25-year-old, bro.
Look at these clowns.
They were older teens, not younger.
Oh, 19.
Yeah.
I don't think that argument has ever held up in a court of law.
I just wanted to make sure they were okay.
You know, I did throw a stick at them.
It didn't hit them.
I didn't throw it with full force.
That's nice.
But I wanted to go back and just, you know, talk to them like,
yo, that's not cool what you did.
I don't know what to believe.
Me either.
I mean, if that's true it's kind i mean
you've got that right maya okay i'm trying i'm really trying here she's like yeah it's kind of
creepy i mean but if he's not lying you guys it is nice to be with someone who can make a mistake
and then fix it or apologize for it immediately that's's a mature thing to do. That's true. Well, at this point, I need to ask
you, Maya, would you like
to go out on a second date with Johnny?
You guys can vape together on a tandem
bike.
And then we'll pay for it.
We'll buy you jewels.
Listen, I truly do
not want to get in trouble legally
or whatever for dating
a kid. I can't
believe what I'm hearing here.
What if he could prove his birth
date? I don't want him showing
up with a fake ID. No, thank
you. This has been literally
the worst.
First of all, thank you for the youthful compliment,
but no, no fake ID
needed. Yeah, we're just going to have his
mom come and bring his birth certificate
and then we'll show you in person that way.
It'll be easy because he still lives with her.
I'm embarrassed.
So, sorry, Johnny.
I guess no matter what we say,
she's not going to believe your age
and that means no date.
Yeah.
I thought we had something.
Maybe go talk to your bros.
They'll make you feel better.
Yeah.
We did add each other on ps4 so yeah
