But for now, we'll get into some questionable relationship advice.

We all want to hit redo sometimes in life. Like Alexis wants to hit redo on her eyebrows. I'm sorry. I want her to redo her eyebrows i haven't told you that yet have i alexis no jeff thanks for doing that right now i have a plan don't worry oh we'll talk about that later. What about when it comes to an awkward situation that happens during a good date? And you don't want to redo the whole night. Just redo that awkward moment. Yeah. That's why Scott emailed us for help.

And Scott, I know you and I have talked about Alexis's eyebrows, but let's not focus on that right now. All right? We're just here to talk about your date. It's so hard not to look over. I had no idea bro talk was going like that these days. Yeah. Bro, did you to talk about your date. It's so hard not to look over. No idea bro talk was going like that these days. Bro, did you see her eyebrows? No way I would date her.

Let's talk about your date, Scott. Who's the girl that you went out with? Okay, her name's Erica. Normal eyebrows? No, not at all. No, I'm kidding. I'm kidding. Exceptional eyebrows, baby. I was No, I'm kidding. I'm kidding. Oh, I was going to say exceptional eyebrows, baby. I was hoping she had like crazy brows.

So what did you and Erica do for your date? Well, we met online and we went to dinner. Okay. Nice place. Everything's going great. I go to wash my hands and I came out and I had like a napkin slash paper towel in between my fly. Like it was just hanging. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

In your pants? Yeah, because I. Poking out through the zipper? Wait, do guys wipe that? No. No, he had it on his lap because he's a gentleman at dinner. And then it got caught in the zipper. That's my dad.

You're assuming. No, it was a nice restaurant. So they don't have like paper towels. They have a nice linen-type thing. So after I washed my hands, I have it in my hand, and I noticed my fly was still down, so I zipped it up, and I just walked out. And it was stuck in there.

Okay. And I just walked out, didn't even know it, and I'm about halfway, and I see her face look at me and then look down and then look back at me. He's about to show me the most inappropriate magic trick either that or you're feeling real confident at that point like oh oh you can see it wow looking down there i did that thing where you turn around because obviously she's looking at something else yeah and i was like what and then i looked down oh so embarrassed and i see it and what do you do

i should have turned around just pulled it out no don should have turned it around, just pulled it out. No, don't pull it. Oh, oh, oh. Yeah, just dealt with it. Yeah, just pull it out of the zipper. Like, it can't be that hard. What did you do? Here's what popped into my stupid brain.

Oh, no, bro. I thought, why don't we pull it out like a magician? Just keep bing, bing, bing. And pulled it out and went, ta-da. Oh, no. Like one of those never-ending scarves up your sleeve? I love it! Oh, no.

The handkerchief trick. Huh. That's an interesting choice. Was she impressed? She started laughing. Oh, that's good. Then maybe you knew your audience. You know, I think she thinks that I did the napkin thing on purpose to be funny,

but, yeah, I did not. Okay. I totally went with it. I'm like, all right, let's go with that. Yes. Yes. I'm hilarious when it comes to napkins. I'm brilliant.

Yeah, you painted this like it was this horrible moment. Yeah. But actually, it looked like it worked to your benefit on the date. Yeah, I'm not done yet. Oh. Oh. Those are more embarrassing things. so i invite her back to my place okay okay and she says yes i'm like all right sweet i open the door and standing there is my dad oh at your place what at my place do you live with your dad or your parents? No. What the heck?

Why is your dad inside your apartment? He just came over. He didn't tell me. He just wanted to come over. This is why you don't give your parents the spare key. No. Obviously, she's not going to believe that it's your house. She's going to think, unless it's like a one-bedroom apartment.

No, I've got a two-bedroom. So I was like, Dad, what are you doing here? He goes, I just wanted to come visit. Ooh, she's pretty. Who's this? Oh, no. That's such a two bedroom. So I was like, dad, what are you doing here? He goes, oh, I just wanted to come visit. Ooh, she's pretty. Who's this? Oh, no. Such a dad thing. So awkward. I hope I'm not ruining your game, son.

What was Erica's reaction? Could you read that? She was a little uncomfortable. Like, hi. Yeah. Yeah, she'd be shocked. I mean, she could obviously sense how shocked you were, though, too, right? Yeah, I hope so.

And at one point, I decided, all right, let me get some drinks. Maybe I can ease the pain. And he was going to leave soon. So I left them alone for, I don't know, five minutes. They were talking. Okay. And I came back, and her vibe was completely different. Oh, no, Dad.

She's already meeting the parents, like, on Thursday. That's so much. Is your dad one of those dads that is like super embarrassing, likes to tell horrible stories about you? You mean like every dad? Yes. He's the quintessential dad joke dad. Oh, boy. You're going to love this one. Now we know where you got the

napkin trick idea from. Apple and tree there. How did you and Erica and your dad leave things so i'm trying to give hints all right dad good to see you good to see you he just plops down on the couch like all right let's watch a movie do you see i made two drinks dad not erica just like uh you know what? I've got an early morning. I'm going to take off.

I mean, you can't blame her. I'm sure you wanted to leave too. Oh, I did. And so I start walking around and he goes, no, we're about to watch Harry Potter. Come back. Oh, dad. Okay, that would have worked on me. All right, I'll be right there.

Yeah. Did you get a chance to apologize profusely um but i have not heard from her since okay that's a hard dad hill to climb up up now i see why you would want to redo a few of those moments from the night and we can't really redo them but we can at least try and get you a redo on a second date so we're gonna play a song we'll come back do you want to call his dad too? Three-way him in? I think we've dealt with enough embarrassing moments.

Let's just try and focus on some positives. We'll call Erica and try and get your second date update right after this. Second date update. The surprise dad. That's not just the name of my go-to move for my bingo dates. It's what actually happened to one of our listeners, Scott, recently during his first date with Erica. Because they went back to his place at the end of the night. And who was waiting there inside the door but his old pop.

Ready to crack a brewski and watch some Harry Potter with his boy. So obviously that situation put a damper on the romance. And ever since, Erica is not responding when Scott reaches out hoping to get another date. So we're going to step in, kind of like his dad did,

and try and get that second date for him. Scott, feeling ready for this? Oh. Oh, yeah. That was a painful recap, Scott. How are you feeling?

I'm hopeful. Okay. That's good. But a little nervous. Yeah, you know, all of this was out of your control. I think anyone would be empathetic of that. You know, we all have cringeworthy parents. Oh, yeah.

And before we call her, Scott, you said that you noticed Erica was talking to your dad for a few minutes while you were in the other room. Did you ever ask your dad what he said to her? I did. I was like, hey, what happened to you? Oh, no, we just made some small talk. Oh. Uh-oh. Nothing important.

And you just took that at face value. Oh, God. I mean, there's no way that your dad would ever swoop in on your dates, right? Oh, you're thinking that? It's not. Oh, no, no, no. It's embarrassing, I bet. I thought he was just going to tell, like, a terrible story about story about like how he got stood up on prom or something like that.

Or maybe he asked her like if she was in Gryffindor or Slytherin or something. Oh, they got into a heated debate. I mean. Let's just call Erica and find out what happened. We're going to dial the number right now and see what she has to say. Let's do this. You ready, Scott? All right, let's do this for better or for worse.

All right. Here we go. Hello? Hey, is this Erica? Yeah, who's this? This is Jeff from the radio show Brooke and Jeffrey in the Morning. We're looking for the biggest Harry Potter fans in the Morning. We're looking for the biggest Harry Potter fans in the area.

You a Potterhead? Oh, God. I like it, but I'm not like a crazy fan. Wait, what is this about? Yeah, exactly. It's not about that. That's just a side question. The real question that we want to ask about

is your date the other night with a guy named scott oh yeah i mean that's okay it's probably a hard date to forget for sure we're doing something called a second date update we're trying to help scott figure out what went wrong when you two hung out together and to be fair, Scott definitely has some ideas of what went wrong already. Or maybe nothing went wrong and it's something totally unrelated to that night. We can focus on what went right.

I heard he made you laugh. That's a good thing. I'm not understanding the second date thing. Like, you're just wanting to know my story? Yeah, because Scott told us his version of the story and he knows that afterwards you haven't been responding to him, and he's just trying to figure out the reason why. I don't know how much he told you. He told us about a little napkin trick that he showed you.

Oh, yeah. And that you thought was funny. Yeah, it was pretty risky. Like, I don't know how, if he knew that I would laugh. Like, you know, he came out of the bathroom with, like, a tissue and a zipper. Yeah. But the risk paid off, right? Great risk, great reward. Yeah, I thought it was hilarious.

And, like, I really, really like funny guys. Cool. Good. Yeah, so I'm going to fast forward from dinner to Scott's house. What was your reaction when you saw his dad was waiting there? Yeah, this is what I want to hear. God. Because we heard that.

Yeah. You can be honest. Well, so originally when I said I'd go back to his place, I actually was totally open to hook up with him. Whoa. No, no. That's going to hurt even more when he hears that. and his dad was there oh my god i can't tell you how awkward that was i bet yeah i can't like the parents are there the worst part is i knew his dad wait what

what no his dad no way you're his daughter from another secret family oh my god that's no way when we tell scott that his dad has another family let her talk what do you mean he knows you knew his dad he's my gynecologist What? No. Wait a minute. He's your OB? He's your, like, special doctor? So he clearly recognized me, and, like, I knew him. Like, I had just gone in, like, a couple months ago. Good news, he recognized your face and not Brooke. I mean. I am blushing.

I am blushing for you. But he's a professional. I mean, like, come on. This guy's a doctor. I know. I know. I know. I, come on. This guy's a doctor. I know. I know. I know. I'm trying.

Oh, my God. It's like this super awkward thing. He's like all casual. Just like, hey, good to see you. It's going to be worse if you have to go in for an STD after dating. Oh, my God. No, I'm trying my best. And at one point, like, I just asked Scott to get me a drink.

Yeah. And like, I talked to the dad and he's like, don worry it's patient confidentiality yeah and i i just asked him like if he could help me like get out of the situation if he can just say like hey scott let's watch a movie so i can just leave oh you wait you asked the dad to bring that up that was your idea way too awkward i guess dad wasn't as clueless as we thought he was. He was actually trying to help her out. Oh my god. That is so hard. I guess the really clueless person is probably Scott

who we should let you know Erica is on the other line listening right now and wants to talk to you. Wait, wait, wait. What? It's okay. Yeah, Scott's there. I think. Scott? What is going on right now? Oh, my God.

Why couldn't your dad have been a dentist? Oh, God. Oh, my God. I'm mortified, but honestly, Erica, I'm very mortified for you. I'm so sorry. Oh, yeah. That's nice. I mean, what are the chances?

It was really, really weird because, like I said, I'd been there a couple months ago, and, like, he's been my gynecologist for a while now. So, like, he knows me. Oh, he knows you. Like, I know. I know. He really knows you. I know.

Oh, my gosh. Okay, Scott, this is a random question, but I think I might also know your dad. What? Does he go by Dr. Butterball? Shut up, Jeffrey. Get out of here. Is that not him? You are not helping.

Oh, okay. Different guy. Brooke, if you're looking for somebody new, Butterball's your guy, okay? He works out of a van. No, honestly, I went and saw a gynecologist once who, during the exam, was like, so, I listen to your radio show all the time. Oh, that's so cringy. And he was trying to like,

you know, make small talk, but it's just, I need separate lives there. And I would assume you need separate lives when it comes to dating and your gyno. Absolutely. Maybe it's only fair, Scott, if you visit her father's proctologist

and then the two of you could be even Steven. Very close family. Okay, I know you guys are laughing about this, but I'm in shock at how coincidental this is. Yeah, for sure. I feel like, Erica, maybe you should have at least hinted to Scott like something was up. Told him something. I wouldn't put this on her. I mean, like, what was I going to say?

Like, your dad's seen my ankles in stirrups. Oh, no. Okay, not that graphic. It's what every woman has to do. Scott, if it's any consolation, he said he'd give you the green light. Green light? You mean like approval?

I don't know what that means. Like, you have to ask your dad, Scott. That just got creepy. I think you need to switch your gynecology no matter what. That was weird. I see it as a good thing. Yeah, dad gives the thumbs up approval. Oh, my God.

No thumbs. Please don't do any thumbs. Whatever. Whatever finger he approves of. No finger. I'm just saying it sounds like maybe there's a chance here. The only way to know is to ask. Erica, would you like? I don't even want this, no. I'm just saying it sounds like maybe there's a chance here. The only way to know is to ask. Erica, would you like...

I don't even want this to happen. I disapprove. Let's see. Erica, would you like to go out one more time with Scott? Please say no. We'd pay for it. I've never said this. We've never said this. I mean, I did really like him. But...

Dude, go out with him. Dump the doctor. Get a new doctor. No, I could get a new doctor. And, like, the green light thing, maybe it just means I don't have any STDs or anything. No, girl. No. It doesn't matter. No, it doesn't matter.

That's a good heads up. I really want to, but I don't think it's the best idea. Yeah. Scott, I mean, how do you feel about that, hearing that? I've got to be honest, this is the one time in my life that I am 100% so happy that she said no. Well, it worked out then. Scott, I know you saw Erica and your dad whispering. Were you able to read her lips?

Oh, no. No. Is that not good? No. Yuck. whispering, were you able to read her lips? Oh, no. No. Is that not good? No. Yuck. Yeah, I'm going to hang up. Is that okay? Hold on. Before you go, Dr. Butterball is on the other

line. Oh, God. This is not covered by our show. I don't know what that means, but yeah, it was nice talking to help her get out of the situation. Yeah, we thought he was just being a dad. Yeah, I thought he was being super clueless, didn't know what was going on. He knew everything and was just trying to get out of the situation.

Will you stop saying he knew everything? I mean, that's the uncomfortable part. He's known it all and he's seen it all. Oh, yeah. I don't know. For me, it's like if he was a real professional, he would have just been upfront about the situation instead of trying to sneak her out. Yeah. That sounds like that would have been more awkward.

It's a really awkward combo. Yeah, but that's your business, man. Like, I don't think that it's awkward to you if you're a gynecologist. I don't know. I think he's a good guy. I'm curious. A good gyno. Yeah, a good gyno.

I think she still needs to not go on the date and also switch her doctor. Yeah, I'm going to go with both on that one. I'm curious, Brooke, if your dad was a gynecologist, is that something that you would be comfortable with? My husband's grandfather was a gynecologist. You would go to your husband's grandfather? No, God, no, I wouldn't go to him. No.

I thought that's what you were saying. But if he wanted, you know, it doesn't bother me that that's his profession. Yeah. No. See my own father? Gross, Jeff. I don't know. Whatever. It's fine. I'm not going to go into Joe. I don't know. Whatever.

It's fine. I'm not going to go into it. Yeah, this is a weird topic. Let's talk about dating again. If you have a date that you went on that didn't go the way you planned, you can always email the show. We'll call the person who isn't calling you back. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.
