Second Date Update. It's extremely rare on our show when we find two people who actually met in person and decided to go out on a date. I know. I say it's like one in 20 of these things, right? It's just rarer and rarer. But for one of our listeners, Scott, who's on the phone with us right now, that did not happen. Jeffrey, why even bring it up then?

I'm just saying. He's part of the normal people now. He met her online and slid in her DMs like a boss. I honestly don't know much else about their rendezvous besides that, but I do know he's on the phone right now. Scott, welcome to the show. Hey, everybody. Thanks for having me. I'm always curious. Like, you didn't know her at all?

No, just one of those like weird connections. Okay. So what did you say in her DMs to get her attention? Can we get her name first? Oh, I guess. She's a person, Brooke. Right now, she's just a hot lady on Instagram to me. Yeah, what's this piece of meat's name? Her name's Alexandra.

Alexandra. Okay, we promise to be more respectful going forward. Now, what did you say to Alexandra in her DMs? Well, so I saw a photo. It was photos from BritCon. Like, I was just looking at photos. From what? Say that.

What? BrickCon. It's, like, the largest Lego convention. Oh. I took my kids to that. Oh, and you didn't know what it was? Oh, you didn't know what it was? I mean, I don't know.

It was down at the, you know, event center. So it's... Just wanders into random buildings with her children. I call it the Lego thing. It is amazing, though. What photos did she have? Like, it was a picture of her with, like, one of the exhibits in the background, which was, like, the London Bridge.

Yeah, that one's cool. So what did you comment on that photo? I said I took that same picture, LOL. So it wasn't a sexy DM that you gave her. Just a friendly one. No, just sort of like, oh, this is so cool. Like, I love this photo. That exhibit was actually my favorite.

Okay. Okay. What did she say? Did she reply? She was like, oh, my gosh, mine too. I stood in line for like two hours waiting to get this picture. And I was like, I did too. And I'm looking back at the selfies that I took while I was standing in line.

And I see her in one of my own selfies, like 10 people back. You guys were there at the exact same time in the exact same line. Yeah, yeah. That is weird. Did you send her the selfie so she could see? I mean, look, when you have a perfect weigh-in, you've got to use it.

Yeah. How did you present it, though? You weren't like, hey, I have a secret picture of you. No, I was like, two hours, try three. And then sent the photo of me in line, too. I was like, oh, my God, that's you in the background, isn't it? Oh. Okay.

Oh, my God. I bet she reacted just like we did. Like, whoa. Or, wow, that's creepy. No, she was like, no way. Small world. Do you turn this into a date? I did.

I was like, let's go do drinks and then go to the Lego store. Brilliant. Perfect. I think it's fantastic. Keep it rolling. In retrospect, I'm kind of like, maybe we should have done the Lego store and then drink. Oh, because then you could have brought your Legos with you and built some stuff. Yeah, and being drunk in the Lego store is not necessarily the greatest idea.

Out of my way, kids. I'm the one who's the money. You don't have any money. I was thinking one or two drinks, not like you guys are out doing shots. I don't know how to do one or two drinks. No, but they put up like big setups in the Lego store. You know what I mean?

To like showcase what you can do. So like sometimes being all a little tipsy around there is like, whoop. Oh, it's almost scary. Oh my God. It's not like that happened? I've never heard that break anything. Oh, it's almost scary. Oh, my gosh. Did something bad happen? Did you break anything? I broke the wing off of one of their little models.

But it wasn't a big one. And somebody can definitely fix it very easily. I just sort of like hid it away. Yeah. Okay. I don't know, though. It's like drunk adults, small children. They're really the same type of people.

Did you feel like you were building like a connection with Alexandra that time? I definitely thought so. Because the last thing that we did in the night, right, is I bought a model, like a Build Your Own model of the International Space Station. Wow. So you're showing her you got money, too. Yeah.

Well, I showed her that I had date number two lined up right in that box. You guys can put it together. That's clever. Okay, well, I don't understand the problem here at all was she excited good foreplay too yeah i've never heard that what was her reaction to that it seemed good to me a little i i thought we had a great i'm calling you guys because i'm confused yeah yeah and looking back is there anything that you think maybe could have gone wrong on the date the only weird thing

that i can think of and i like admit that this was probably an ill-advised choice is i've been drinking like a lot of coffee oh yeah coffee's great but i was definitely like oh i feel like my teeth look disgusting oh and so i was like googling what are quick ways to like whiten your teeth a little bit this is before the date that you're googling this yeah yeah before the date okay and i saw that if you put a little bit of like vapo rub on your teeth supposed to like do some quick whitening i bet it would just taste like freaking peppermint the stuff that's like you put on your chest to help with congestion and stuff yeah i saw somewhere that there's a meme that said that's just spicy vaseline you really did that yeah i did that i mean i'm look i'm not proud of it but i was panicking you know. Did you kiss her like she might have tasted this?

Or her lips are still numb from the experience? It smells like peppermint, right? In my head, all I could feel was that smell, but I don't actually know if she could smell anything. It is like a medicine-y, weird. You kept it on for the whole date. Yeah, but it doesn't stay on like the whole, you know what I mean? Yeah, but it's like. Is it reapplying?

Like in Beauty Queen stuff or like dance, like people used to put Vaseline on their teeth so that they would smile the whole time. But sometimes what happens is your smile drops and you just look like you're grimacing. Is your face stuck in one position, bro? Or you talk the way Brooke was just talking. You can't put your top lip down.

Look, I've been spending the whole night talking like this. Okay. That would be obvious. That's good. We avoided that. It feels like there's a lot to choose from at this point. Still a mystery. We'll pick option A through Z when we call her and try and get you your second date update right after this.

All right? Thank you. All right, man. Hold on. Second date update. One of our listeners, Scott, is on the phone, and he slid into his date's DMs. Yeah. Apparently, they were both at BrickCon together, the big Lego exhibition.

God, I didn't even know it. That's so crazy. Yeah, didn't realize until they checked back at their photos and saw they were both there at the same time. Cool. So he asked her out from there, and they had drinks, hit up the Lego store. I mean, perfectly themed date. And even bought a really cool set that they could build together on their second date, which never happened.

Not yet. Not yet, Jeffrey. Stay positive. That's what we're going to try to do here. But regardless, if we get her on the phone and of what she says, Scott, if she's not up for it, I already spoke to Jose and Alexis off the show, and they say that you can bring that space station Lego set here and work on it with them because they have a lot of downtime here. Like, those are way too hard for me.

I don't find them fun. Jose would be distracted in one minute. Are you interested in building it with them? I mean, look, it's not a bad consolation prize. Okay. Awesome. Is it not, though? That sounds like my personal health.

I'll cheer you on while you build it. Yeah. But we should also mention that Scott told us about a quick teeth whitening hack that he did right before the date. He put VapoRub on his teeth. He didn't believe that his date, Alexandra, noticed. How could she not, though? That is the hard piece. It's kind of clear.

I don't know. I don't think we should mention it unless she brings it up. Okay, good call. Because it sounds like it was a non-factor from his story. And he's just trying to make himself the best version of himself. I've done it before. Oh, is it hurt? I didn't put it on my teeth, though.

I put it on a different section. Oh, so it probably did hurt a little bit. It did feel kind of good. They probably noticed. Oh, they noticed. They requested it. Let's go back to Scott. Scott, we'll talk about the Vicks hot, boy. Let's go back to Scott. Okay.

Scott, we'll talk about the Vicks hot tub later. Hot tub now? What the? Not even a kiddie pool, Jeff? I go all in. Anyway. Okay. Here we go.

I'm going to call Alexandra. Let's try and get your second date update here. Hello? Hey, is this Alexandra? This is Alexandra. Who's this? Hey, my name is Jeff, and there's actually a whole bunch of people here. Yeah. Hi.

What's up, Alexandra? Brooke, Jose, Alexis. We're all part of Brooke and Jeffrey in the Morning. Yeah. It's a radio show. How can I help you um well you could help us by uh maybe talking to us a little bit about your recent date you went on with a guy named scott wait you're you're calling me about a date that i went on yeah this is part of a segment that we do called

second date update oh it's where our listeners want to go out with somebody a second time, but they're having trouble organizing the date. It's a good thing. I mean, Scott really liked you. Okay. I'm sorry. What was your question? Did you say, okay, you'll go on the date? Because that would make this really easy.

I would just hang up now. That's not our question. I mean, it will be eventually. Not yet. Why don't you start by telling us what you thought of Scott and your time together? Okay. He seemed nice and I had a good time. Oh, good.

Did you like his date idea? He said you guys went to drinks and Legos. Yeah. I mean, he was a little bit more into Legos than I was, but like, it was nice to have like a shared connection. Okay. Okay. What was your favorite part of the night? I don't know.

I guess like looking around the Lego store together. Oh. Fun. And then let's go to the worst part of your night. Oh. Play a little hot and cold here. Yeah. Okay.

A little contrast game. I mean, it is important information that we need. Maybe the worst part was when it ended. Aww. is that the case alexandra um no not exactly so you do have a worst part well i don't want to be mean i understand that but the deal is for our listeners when they sign up to do this they understand that they might hear something that sounds a little controversial or a little unpleasant, but they're totally cool with it. Yeah. I mean, Scott's open to growing, right? Sure.

He's a chill guy. Okay. I don't know. We went and had a few drinks first, and then we went to the Lego store. We were walking around, and there's this part in the back of the store it's like really dark with a black light and like they have like the glowing legos oh cool oh yeah we were like looking at those back there and he like grabbed a box and he like turned around to show me and he smiled really big and i don't

know his his teeth were like glowing they're like glowing green oh that makes sense like from the from the black light okay i don't know what it was like if it was just affecting his teeth weird i was i i i don't know i it just really freaked me out and yeah it just acted like exactly what i was saying is probably what happened okay wait no we didn't talk about this part alexandra uh i don't know if you heard that scott is there on the other line and Clearly embarrassed a little bit. Uh-huh. What? Yeah, that's how the segment works. We have them listening.

So, yeah, this must be exactly what I was talking about, you guys. What? This is super awkward, but it was just like a dumb thing that I did to try to whiten my teeth a little. Or a lot. I don't understand. Like, what's the dumb thing that you did? You put in a glow-in-the-dark dentures on accident.

Darn it. I hate when I do that. I put VapoRub on my teeth to try to make them look a little whiter. There it is. What? It must have showed up on the blacklight. Yeah, it does. I forgot that that is a reaction to it, though.

Is it really? Yeah. I know normal teeth, like, are supposed to glow blue in black light, but green is... Probably like the green hue. Yeah. Does Vapor Rub even work like that? I don't know. How does his teeth look?

That's up to you. I mean, in the black light, it was really weird. But not in the black light. They looked normal. Oh, so it worked. Hey! Okay. There we go.

No yellow staining or anything like that? I don't think so. I don't know. I never should have went back there. You never would have known. Well, that's what happens when you drink. You're naturally drawn to blacklight areas and clubs and bars. You could understand. I mean, as a female like who hasn't done a beauty

hack that's backfired right yeah no i i get that i just that's a little weird right whatever works for beauty that's what i hear if i'm coming clean about everything i might as well just come clean about everything it's that and i have a hair implant and that's it. That's all my secrets on this show. Oh, fake hair. Okay. I mean, I don't think she noticed. No. So they must be really good, Scott, or she doesn't care. Honesty hour.

That's really interesting, Scott. You have hair plugs, huh? Yeah, but it's that and that I did a dumb thing with VapoRub, and that's all I got. See? Just trying to improve himself. Maybe we could even things out, and Alexandra, you could share something that you do to make yourself appear more beautiful. See? It could be lip filler.

Maybe a little tissue stuffage. Just be vulnerable here for a second with him. He was vulnerable with you. I mean, I guess sometimes I use lemon wedges on my knees. What? Oh! What does that do? For what?

Is that like smooth skin kind of thing? Yeah, it's supposed to like smooth out the skin down there. Okay. A little citrus cap. Look at that. She's got wrinkle-free knees, Scott. Yeah. F you thought she couldn't get cuter. And her knees are packed with vitamin C.

Yeah. Kind of a weird, odd, but perfect couple. Yeah, in a weird way they go together i will happily try rubbing lemons on my knees okay okay you guys should do this together yeah you should be rubbing lemons on each other and vapor rub everywhere while you build that international space station set together you just described one sexy night we could help make that happen and offer to pay for a second date if you're willing to see him one more time alexandra um oh come on with the lemons and the vicks it's gonna smell

amazing it was just some don't forget the hair plugs too you didn't even notice they must look You look great. Come on. Give him a chance. Okay. Yeah. Sure. Wait. Yes. We got an okay shirt. Oh, my God. Take it.

Take it. You guys worked some magic on this show. Yes. That's right. Scott, you should feel really good, although there's like a 95% chance she didn't really mean it when she said yes. That's still a 5% chance she did. That's right.

She was sticking on to it. That's right. So should I like call you, Alexandra, or text you? Oh. I'll get back to you. Oh. Oh. Okay.

Okay, so now I think it's only 98%. That sounds like love to me. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Does anybody realize what we just pulled off here? If it happens. Yeah. Well, theoretically, we just got off here? If it happens. Well, theoretically, we just got a man

with hair plugs and a mouthful of VapoRub a second date. Who loves Legos? Are we miracle workers or what? Come on. We are heroes. Good for him. Men, you should shout your beauty regimens to the rooftops. Whatever you gotta do to feel better.

She's not perfect either. She's got a couple lemon knees down there. But still, I'm proud of us for what we accomplished, even if she only did say yes because she knew she was on the radio. Milkshakes for everybody today. Thanks, Jeff. Are you buying? Yeah, sure. I'll buy.

Wow. I do not believe that either. Yeah, sure. 95% chance that happens. And remember, just like building a Lego set, a relationship starts by laying that first brick. Aw, that's sweet. And maybe we can help you lay it. Just email the show. We'll help you lay that brick and call that person.

Let's maybe not do that analogy anymore. Oh, was that a bad thing? I heard the whole thing out. Felt right to me. We'll call that person and call you back.
