I'd be here with you if I didn't? What does that mean if I didn't? What does that mean? This show deserves a second chance, Jeff. Okay, I don't know what I did. I'm serious, though. If somebody makes a mistake, are you willing to let bygones be bygones and give them a fair shake? Yeah, I mean, especially if

there's an apology, you know? If you talk things out, I think you can always work through something. Communication is amazing. We have a return caller on the phone today named Scott who you were not too happy with the last time he was on this show. Do you have an apology ready, Brooke? He put a little blue pill into his own drink at the

dinner table, and you used the word creep to describe him. So maybe we need to start with an apology from Brooke to Scott here. Go ahead, Brooke. You said you believed in second chances. Especially if there's an apology. Here's my question.

Have you stopped? No, no, no. Yes, yes, yes. Communication. I am not apologizing. Yeah, that's not going to happen. But what will happen is if you have stopped sneaking those pills into your drink on the first date. Into your own drink.

Hey, hey, still not cool, Jeff, okay? Have you changed your ways, Scott? You know, I think I've gotten a lot better since the last time we talked. Okay. Better. I really do. So now does he get the apology? For what?

He was big enough to look past all the mean things that we called him on the show. Yeah. And give us another chance. I think we should give him another chance with his dating life here. Or he's desperate enough, but okay. I'm kidding, Scott. It's a little bit of a rough room, but welcome back. Yeah, should I leave?

No, you're good, man. You're good. I think you should. Okay. So apparently you've reached out because there's a new woman that you met. Yeah, yeah. Her name's Mandy. Okay. Okay.

And how'd you meet Mandy? I was shopping at a hardware store. She comes up to me and asks me about, like, the stuff I'm looking at. Okay. Like, she needs help. Oh, does she think you... Maybe I look like I was dressed like I work there or something. Or maybe, you know maybe just being a guy.

I'm sorry. If you're wearing a polo shirt in one of those stores, you automatically fake. Was she a white one? Yeah, I was wearing an orange and white polo shirt. Well, this is, I mean, it's giving you the perfect chance to talk to her. So what do you do? Well, you know, I thought she was cute. And I was like, look, I don't know how this works.

I'm sorry. Oh, you're honest. I barely know what I'm looking at here but I thought she was cute and I told her that and I asked her if she wanted to go out she said yes wow just right there on the spot that was really quick so did you end up seeing her for an actual date yeah we did and I really wanted to avoid doing something stupid okay okay that should always be the thing, bro. That is such a good lesson to take from this show.

So what was the date like? We went to the beach. Oh, interesting. Yeah, so we were like hanging out. We were just like people watching. And I thought it would be funny if we were like started to rate the women who walked by. Oh, God. But I didn't do it. I didn't do it. I didn't do it. You didn't do that. I didn't do it. funny if we were like started to rape the women who walked by. Oh, God.

I didn't do it. You didn't do that. I didn't do it. Okay, you had the thought, but you didn't follow through with it. Yeah, no, I want you guys to know all the bad ideas I didn't do. Okay. All right. That's good. This is growth. This is exactly what we wanted from you. It was hard for me to even hear that that was one of your thoughts. Okay.

Was there a worse idea that you had than that? What else didn't you do? Uh, alright, so like, the sun started to set, and I brought my camera, I like to take pictures and stuff, and I started to photograph the sunset. Okay. What I wanted to do was ask

for a model for me. Didn't do that. Oh, you didn't? Okay. That was not too bad. I mean, some women would be flattered by like, oh, you want my picture? Modeling just saying pose is different. Some would be offended that you weren't asking them to model for you. It's like, hey, get out of my frame.

Trying to capture the sunset. Don't make me get more in my head. I tried to do my best. You made the right call. That was smart. Anything else? I also didn't tell her about the camera because, like, I'm a big camera nerd. And I was like, I could go on for days about the tech specs of the camera. Oh, okay. Camera specs hot, Alexis, or not hot?

I don't know. I don't know what it is. You don't know what it is? No, like. Just talking about the different features of the camera? Let's go with not. The aperture. That was a good choice. Don't tell her about the details of your camera camera? Let's go with not. Aperture. That was a good choice.

Don't tell her about the details of your camera. Good call. Yeah. I, for some reason, kept thinking about gas prices. Didn't bring that up. Are you focused on the date at all? Did you talk much? Yeah, what did you talk about?

What did you do? Well, I mean, we talked about our recent dating history. I've been on a lot of dates. She's only been on one lately. Did that rub her the wrong way at all? Did you notice? Once I knew that she hadn't been on as many dates, I sort of backed off and didn't go into

detail. Okay, good. You don't want to hound that. I didn't tell her that I was on the radio and what I was on the radio and what I was on the radio for. For your last one. You're making a lot of good decisions here. So how do you end this night with Mandy? Walked her actually, she walked me to my car

first, I guess. We gave each other a hug. Okay. I considered taking out the guitar from my trunk to play a song, but I did not do it. In the parking lot? Dude. I learned my lesson from Barbie. You don't do that.

Women don't like that. That's right. Well, all right. Maybe not until like the third or fourth day. Then you pull out your Matchbox 20 soundtrack that you wanted to see. Overall, that sounds pretty solid. What's happened since then? You know, I thought it went well, too, but nothing.

Radio silence. Haven't heard a thing. Wow. Interesting. I wonder if you were just, like, two up in your head and you weren't able to actually be yourself. You know, like, I feel like the whole time you're telling yourself what not to do, not how great you are. Yeah, maybe you should bust out those blue pills again and see how it goes. What's back on board?

Okay. Well, you know, you guys made me think that maybe I'm not so great, so. No, no, no. We didn't think that. No, I didn't mean that he wasn't a good person. I believe the word creep was tossed around. Well, it was a bad assumption to make on a first date. You just can't do that.

Has he redeemed himself from the creep label in this date? So far. Yeah. We haven't talked to her yet jeffrey all right so so far it's pretty good we're gonna get the rest of the story when we call mandy for you and try and get you your second date update right after this okay sounds good all right don't move you creep here we go second date update if you missed the first part of the second date we got a returning listener to the show, Scott, back with us.

He went down a list of things he considered but did not do on his date with Mandy. Including he didn't ask her to rate the other women on the beach on a scale of 1 to 10. He thought about it, but to his credit, didn't do it. You get credit when you think about it still, I guess. We're taking baby steps with Scott here. A lot of self-control, Brooke. Also, when they went to the parking lot for their goodbye hug, he considered taking out his guitar for a little John Mayer serenade,

but said no, Brooke wouldn't like me to do that. I actually probably would have fell for that if I was the one on the date for it. I'm sorry, I'm a sucker for a guitar. I'm such a stereotype. I really am. What else you got in that trunk? Yeah. Well, so, Scott, if we call her and she says that you whipped it out, I'm going to be slightly disappointed.

No, I hope that's not what she said. Because I thought you made significant growth here, and that's not a little blue pill joke. That's just an honest observation of you. I want to hear her side of the story. He didn't whip out his growth is what I'm hearing. No, there is something wrong in my head. I just can't listen to anything that you're saying with a

clean thought. I know. I like it. That's you projecting what you want to hear me say. That has nothing to do with what I'm saying. I think the listeners hear it too. I'm saying that Scott has turned a page. The only weird part is his date Mandy has completely ghosted afterwards. So let's find out what that's about.

Scott, you ready to do this? Let's do it. Look at that. You did the whole first half not getting shamed for anything, Scott. I think this is already a good sign of how this fall is going to go. Did we not shame him? He's only said three words. If anything, Brooke is the creepy pervert who's thinking bad thoughts the entire time.

So there we go. But I keep the thoughts inside, Jeff. You said that that's a win. You said, okay, there we go. We're all on the winning page here. Let's call Mandy now. Let's do it. Here we go. Hello?

Hi, is this Mandy? Yes, speaking. Hey, Mandy, this is a radio show. My name is Jeff, and I'm part of Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Sorry, you're what? Sorry, did I say that weird? Yeah, hey, Mandy. Hey.

There's a random person in the background who just said hi to you on the boat. Random. I just told her who I was. I guess technically we work together. That's Brooke. I'm Jeff. And you're on Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning with a whole room full of people. Yeah.

Jose and Alexis are here too. Hello. What are you calling me about? Great question. You get right to it. So this is called the Second Date Update. It's a segment where we try to help our listeners reconnect with somebody after they've gone out with them once. And you went out with a guy who listens to our show named Scott.

Yeah. So what? Oh. Well, so Scott had a really good time at the beach with you. And he was hoping that... It was a nice time. It was fine. I won't speak badly on anybody.

It was a nice time. Okay. Well, if you had a good time, we're just trying to help Scott figure out why there hasn't been a second date. Yeah, he wants to see you again. The way that he described your communication afterwards was radio silent. Which we appreciate because we want to keep the word radio relevant. But we understand Scott doesn't like like that so is there a reason well yeah i mean i feel like it was pretty obvious it was just a complete turnoff for me that he had been on eight dates already this year that he's just kind of juggling all these women. Whereas I'm in a different place. I've only been on one date.

Like it just felt like different life. He's been on eight dates and that's too many for you. Yeah. I mean, he's just, what does he have? Like a little Rolodex. That's not like you could still count that on two hands.

I think that's fine. I don't know. I just, I'm just more traditional person. I'm not's fine. I don't know. I'm just a more traditional person. I'm not into the short-term, casual dating that a lot of guys are looking to hook up nowadays. I'm not looking for that. Do you know that he even

hooked up with all those people or was it just like a bad date? That's true. Did he say he hooked up with them? He had a look in his eyes. He kind of implied it. I wasn't going to ask. You think he'd be bragging about a bunch of failed dates, guys? We can guarantee that one of those dates he did not hook up. Yeah, we got into his dating history before,

and yeah, it hasn't worked out for him. But you're saying he's coming across like a player to you? Yeah, and my belief is that if you spend an hour or two with somebody, you know what you need to know. You know if it's right and if you want an hour or two with somebody, you know what you need to know. You know if it's right and if you want to make things a little more serious. So if he was willing to commit to something a little more serious, I would say yes. But it sounds like he dates a lot and he's not looking for something like that.

Honestly, we don't know what the state of his current dating situation is. All we know is that he reached out to us to get another date specifically with you. Yeah. So that should tell you something. And we should probably ask him about it if he does have a giant roster of girls that he's seeing because he is on the phone right now. What? Can I get a handoff over here?

What's up, dog? He's listening to this and wants to talk to you. Yeah. Hey, man. How's it going? Hi. Wow. She really turned it on was that sarcastic i'm i just wasn't expecting to be having this conversation in this format that was a nervous reaction yeah i'm just not sure what i did wrong you just think i'm a player yeah i'm not a player i'm not getting any younger i mean i'm definitely dating in hopes to meet

someone to be with yeah okay that's a good sign you're not just doing it for the sport yeah yeah i just for fun you can date for fun that's okay too i didn't realize that i had to commit after an hour yeah that was a little weird. It sounds like, Scott, the only way that Mandy is willing to even consider going out with you is if you agree to, like right now, not see anybody else and give it 100% with her. Is that something? That's a big assumption, Jeff. Are you sure that's what she's saying?

That's what I'm hearing. Is that right, Mandy? Yeah, I had a feeling when I was on the date. I don't know if that was mutual. What was the feeling? Just that I could see myself with this person. I could see this progressing into something real. So you did see chemistry.

You just thought, hey, he's in this phase of dating and you're not in that phase of dating, right? And I'm not looking to get hurt. You're so quick to give up on it. Well, you were turned off because you thought that he's dating lots and lots and lots of women all right now you don't want to be amongst a huge list of women yeah if it's me it's me okay so scott is that something that you're even willing to consider dropping any other girl that you're

talking to right now and only focusing on mandy you're gonna to clear the roster, bro? I mean, I'm not talking to anybody else right now. Good answer. Okay, nice. Mandy, he was already only talking to you. Maybe we should just go right to this then and ask Mandy, would you consider going out with Scott again if he says right now he is willing to commit 100% to you, not to anybody else, and basically agree to enter a relationship on this show

it's not potentially you have to give in right now a hundred percent give yourself to her am i off mandy i'm sorry i feel like you're a little laughing at me but like i'm not laughing yeah that is what i'd like okay okay well scott the terms have been laid out. What do you say? Why not? Let's give it a shot. Oh. I don't think why not was appropriate. I mean, I think it's why not. He has no other options right now.

I don't know if you heard that right. He really doesn't have anybody. Congratulations. Scott has agreed to commit 100% to you. Oh, man. Huh. Look, Mandy, I think you're great. I usually don't commit this early, but I honestly, I want to spend more time with you.

Oh, that's actually cute. Mandy, isn't that nice? Are you excited, Mandy? You can't break up with him. I'm glad you said that. You were really open and vulnerable on your end, so I'm going to be that way with you. That technically, I'm engaged. What? Wait, what? wait what oh my god that's why i need the commitment that's why i need the buy-in so i plan to end it with him wait what are you talking about

hold on what was your explanation why like that's why i need to know if he's in this or not with me so if you break off your marriage you can run run to him? That's awful. She needs to know because she needs to know if the backup plan is set before she dumps the current guy. Is that really what's happening? Dude, she's crazier than he is. Scott, you don't need to listen to them. I'm just really excited to spend time with you.

No, we're not hanging out. Maybe, Scott, now you should tell you wanted to raid all the other women on the beach on your date. I didn't, though. Okay. You wanted to. Okay. Well, the good news is, Scott, at the end of the day, the big takeaway, you didn't do anything wrong.

You did nothing wrong. You just ended up with a strict, controlling, pre-engaged kind of nut job. So congratulations. No, not pre-engaged. Very engaged. Very engaged. She's still on the phone. You have fun, you two. I'm going to ask

the radio station to figure out who your fiance is and give me his number. Doesn't he sound so in love? He sounds like he's nervous for the date. Yeah, yeah. We're in a relationship. Now you can serenade her with your guitar, Scott. Good work. Oh man, with that woman on the phone,

now it all makes sense how she's only been with one man in the last year. Yeah. Because that was her fiance. Yes. Oh, God. I never put that together. But aren't we applauding her for what she didn't do? Go on other dates with her fiance?

She still went on this one. But again, that is on us for not saying, hey, how did your last relationship end? Because her answer would have been, it hasn't ended. We're engaged right now. I see. That's all not. I'm just looking for a backup. How did we miss that? Brooke, where were you on that question? My head is not

in the game today, Jeffrey. You've got to step it up on these calls going here on out. That would have saved us a whole lot of time. But in the end, happy ending, kind of? For who? No, definitely not her fiance. For her? Yeah. I mean, she's got the pick of the litter. Yeah, that's

for her. She's got commitments from not one but two different men. I'm sure there's a couple people on the text board that want her too. Yes, but we can have you living your happily ever after if you email the show. We'll call that person who's not calling you back. And go check out all of our second day podcasts wherever you get yours at Brooke and Jeffrey. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.
