I'll show her how a real man sews a sweater. Is it all the same guy texting you? Yeah, it's that one dude you text in like 20 times a day. Yeah. I feel like his name's Randy. A lot of the times, though, our listeners just want to know what happened after a couple agreed to go out again. Yeah, even I do. We don't get updates that often. We want to know

are they still together? Did they break up? Well, today we have an update from two people who were on with us a few months ago. You might remember their names are Lori and Jarm. Oh my gosh. How could you not forget Jarm? We paid for them to go out

on another date, so we're going to play their original second date update and then immediately after we'll find out where their relationship is today. Dude, this guy is like infamous to me. It's the return of Jarm in your Second Date Update update

right after this. Moving 92.5 Second Date Update We got an email from one of our listeners who said he wants to apologize to us in advance for what's about to happen in today's call. I don't know what he did yet, but

he's on the phone with us, and his name, tell me if I'm getting this right, is it Jarm? Jarm, yeah. Wow, I feel like you need to apologize for making fun of his name already, Jeffrey.

Well, I just want to make sure it's a unique name. Yeah. Is it short for, like, Jarmongelo? What? It's actually just short for Jarmond. Jarmond. That's a cool name.

Jarmond. Jarm. Jarmond. All right, let's move That's a cool name. Jarmond. Jarmond. All right, let's move past the name. So Jarm, you said you wanted to apologize to us in your email, so go ahead. Go ahead? What? Oh, um, yeah, so I wanted to apologize in advance, um, but... We do not accept.

Oh. Let the man talk. What are you... I'm kidding. I'm kidding, Jarm. What is it? Are you apologizing to us or to your date? I'm apologizing to'm kidding, Jaron. You're apologizing to us or to your date? I'm apologizing to you.

Why? Yeah. Well, because I'm a fan of the show, and I listen to you guys. I listen to the second date updates all the time. Oh, we hate that. You're right. I mean, that's not why we do this at all. Well, so the thing is that I hear people talk about crazy things that they do on their dates,

and none of that happened with me. So that's what I would like to apologize for. Oh, Charm, dude. How dare you? You're apologizing for calling us with a boring story? Yeah, I would like your help, but it really was just a regular old boring date. Okay. That's all right, Charm.

Why don't you tell us the name of the girl that you want us to call? Her name is Lori. Okay. Where'd you meet her? call? Her name is Lori. Okay. Where'd you meet her? We met on a dating app. All right. Which I also got from the show you guys are always talking about. That's a great way to meet people.

Yeah. I feel like it's already going to turn out bad if you're taking dating advice from us. But continue, Jarm. What did you and Lori do? Well, I posted a picture. And I know cool people call it a pic, but she was the only person who matched with me. Jar, go get down on yourself, dude.

Sorry. We think you're cool, man. Yeah, you seem great. Oh, okay. Well, thank you. Thank you. You're welcome. We met at a restaurant, you know, to be safe.

We had dinner. We talked, and it was over. Okay. And what were the highlights there? We need a little bit more detail. Maybe. Um, I guess that's the problem because I pretty much just told you the highlights. So like the best thing that happened is that you went to dinner and talked. Well, there was one possible thrilling moment. Oh, okay. Do tell.

I did try to tell her some elephant jokes to lighten the mood. Oh, can we hear one? Try out some material on us? Oh, sure. Yeah, yeah. I can tell you one. Okay, so once some hunters were after an elephant, and the elephant didn't know what to do.

So he met his friend Ant on the road, and he told Ant this problem that he had. And Ant said, don't worry, just hide behind me. You get it, because he's small. Well, Ant is small. Right, right. That's not going to work very well. So, Jarm, did she crack up like we are? Yeah.

Well, not really. I did try a few more, but I kind of gave up in the middle of my fourth one. Okay. She didn't seem to get it. Yeah. You can't expect all these people that you date to get the highbrow elephant humor. I mean, I would say, like, if she's not laughing after the first one, I wouldn't go to the fourth, but...

But Jarm's an optimist. Yeah. What was the date like at the end, Jarm? We just said goodnight. We shook hands, and that was it. Oh, no. Shook hands. Are you going to be upset if that's the problem, Jarm,

if she was just too bored on the date? I mean, I guess I wouldn't find it that out of the ordinary for me. I mean, I'm not an exciting person. Oh, Jarm. Buddy. I'm not. I mean, it's not something that I struggle with. I've accepted it.

I'm a pretty boring dude. Okay, that's fine. Jarm, we're not going to let you be boring, okay? We're going to pull through for you. Yeah, and this is pretty exciting that you're doing this. Look at you. You're on the radio. You're stepping out of your comfort zone there, Jarm.

Yeah, and, you know, I've heard you guys work miracles before, and considering she's the only person I matched up with, I thought maybe you could work your magic here. Okay. We got this, Jarm. We're going to pull a miracle for you right now. We're going to play a song, come back, call Lori, and get your second

date update, okay? Okay. Thank you. Let me hear you be really excited about it, Jarm. I am. I am very excited. We'll play a song and do it after this. When he goes on a hot date, he's home

and in bed by 8 p.m. Yes, he is. Tell me more. His go-to romantic move is to comment on the cleanliness of your silverware. When he tells an elephant joke, he tells four of them all in a row. He's the least boring man in the world, and his name is Jarm. Jarm! Jarm, are you there? Yes, in the world. Yes. And his name is Jarm. Jarm. Jarm, are you there?

Yes, I'm here. Okay. There he is. There's that intro for you, Jarm. Jarm went out with a girl named Lori, and he's worried he may have been a little bit too boring on his date. But, Jarm, I don't believe you're boring. I think there's something in your life that you're passionate about. We just don't know it yet.

Oh. When I was 14, I had a stamp collection oh i also had a stamp collection charm uh we also had a sick cat that peed on the stamp collection so yes you are interesting charm i love you and we never asked you this have you actually tried tried reaching out to Lori yet, or is this the first time? I have. She hasn't responded. Okay. And what did you like about her? Well, I like that we matched.

Okay. On the app? All right. That the app matched. You're the only one that. Well, they both find each other attractive. That's a good start. They sound perfect to me.

Yeah. Well, technically, she never said that she thought I was attractive, but I can verify that I think she is. Okay. Verified. Confirmed. All right, Charm. I feel like we're going to get the female version of you on the phone here in about 30 seconds.

Let's find out, okay? We're going to call Lori for you right now. Are you ready? I am ready. Are you amped up? My palms are a little sweaty but please yeah help me all right I'm gonna dial the number right now here we go hello hi can I speak to Lori please this is This is she. Hey, Lori, how you doing?

This is young Jeffrey from the radio show, Brooke and Jeffrey in the Morning. Hi, I'm good. How are you? Oh, you sound like you listen. Well, it's so funny because I just talked about this show the other night. What complaint blog were you on this time? No, I was talking about it with a date who I'm now suspicious might be actually the one initiating this call.

You're good. Really? You are good, Lori. What's the name of your date? Jarm. Did he ask you guys to call me? It is Jarm. Did he ask you guys to call me? It is Jarm. Yes, he did.

So, wait, you guys were talking about us. We were, yeah. Was it a fun conversation for you? I mean, he brought it up, the show, that it's like something he listens to and likes a lot. And so we were just kind of talking about it. And I've definitely heard the show before, but it sounds like he listens a lot. Okay. So is that why you're not calling him back?

Because he listens to this show? He must be a terrible person. I wouldn't either. No, no, no, no, not at all. Jarm told us a little bit about your date and he really likes you. And he's caught on to the fact that you're not responding to him anymore. He wants to know the reason why. I mean, it's not that I am not

responding. I just needed a little bit of time. That means you're not responding. No way. That means that you had actually thought about going out with him again. Listen, the date was fun. He's like really cute. He's got this kind of funny Michael Cera vibe thing going on. That's exactly his vibe. Oh my God. I could totally see that. That's a great analogy, actually. I mean, he was worried that he was too boring for you. And it wasn't like a negative thing. He knows fully, very self-aware of his boring level. I think it's funny.

I like his sort of, his personality and his bluntness. I just was having some kind of trouble processing this weird thing that happened. What weird thing? I don't know if he told you guys that he was telling some jokes at the table. Oh yeah. Elephant jokes. We heard the one about the ant. Yeah.

I loved it. We didn't get the other three that he told you, but we heard the ant one. Yeah. Well, I didn't love them. Because they weren't, they weren't very funny other three that he told you, but we heard the aunt one. Yeah, well, I didn't love them. Because they weren't very funny, is that why? No, no. It's not that I don't think he's funny. It's just he couldn't have known.

But I actually have some history with elephants. Your ex is an elephant? No, but my uncle was actually just on a safari last year, and there was a pretty bad accident with an elephant. Whoa. Oh, no. Yeah, and, like, the first elephant joke he made, I tried to kind of, like, avoid it, not really laugh at it,

and just move on from it, but he kept telling these elephant jokes. Oh, my God. How would anyone know though yeah did you tell him that you had an uncle that had a run-in with an elephant it sounds like a joke in and of itself i mean i know it's not because you're being honest i know i know it sounds crazy but like honestly it was really traumatic and i wasn't like really still not ready to talk about it and i definitely didn't want to talk about it on a first date. And I know it sounds crazy, but my uncle was really hurt. I mean, he's still recovering.

Oh, no. Well, I feel like maybe Jarm should know why you were not laughing and why you were turned off by that. Like, you never told that to him? I didn't. You're right. I just wasn't really ready to talk about it. Don't you think he has a right to know, though, that that's why?

I mean, eventually, yeah. He thinks you just don't like him. Everything else was fine. It's just that one thing kept happening, you know? Yeah, well, more is about to happen because Jarm is actually on the phone, and he's been listening this whole time. What? Yeah, he heard, and he really been listening this whole time what yeah he heard and he really wants to talk with you charm wait what hold on he's happening right now yeah yeah he's been

listening sorry oh i just want to say how sorry i am i really i had no idea hey charm um wow hi sorry this is like i'm just a little caught off guard i wasn't really ready for this um if you don't mind me asking um was it an indian elephant or an african bush elephant what why it's not important it doesn't matter i actually honestly don't even know it's kind of besides the point you know yeah yeah again la Yeah, again, Lori, I'm really sorry. Thank you. Can I just ask, was it a kick or a trampling? No, Jarm.

Stop trying to figure out about the elephant attack. Jarm, it really doesn't matter what kind of elephant it was or how the accident happened. I really don't want to keep rehashing this. Yeah, Jarm, this isn't like elephant CSI. We don't need to get to the bottom of this case. We're trying to get back to the date. Maybe, Jarm, you should concentrate on the fact that she actually really liked you.

Maybe say something nice to Lori about how you felt about her. Lori, I think you are beautiful. And I really enjoyed talking with you. And, you know, if elephants are... No, no, no. Get off the elephants. Go with something else. Try something else.

There's literally like an elephant in the room and it's like, it really means it this time. What I was going to say is if elephants are a problem, we don't have to ever talk about elephants again. Okay, that's insinuated, right? I think that's for the best. Yeah, that would be great. I'm just, not yet, you know? It's still really, really fresh. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, I totally understand that, and in the meantime, if you wouldn't mind letting me know if anyone in your family had any sort of traumatic experience with zebras, because I do know a lot about that species. That is a good question, Jarm.

Ask her for your joke. Zebras are safe, Jarm. Zebras are safe. All right. Oh, man, what a joke. Okay, well, I'm sensing some positivity here. So with that in mind, we would like to offer to send you and Jarm out on a date,

and we'll pay for it. Jarm will not make any elephant jokes. I can't wait to hear the zebra jokes. So that's a yes? Is that a yes? I didn't say that I know zebra jokes. I just said that I know a lot about the species but I'll have to look up some zebra jokes

but I'm prepared. Okay, well there you go. He can give you a PowerPoint presentation on the origins of zebras and then throw in a joke. Would you like to sign up for that? We'll pay for it. Sign me up. I can't wait to see the PowerPoint presentation. Oh, my God.

It's a date. I don't know why I'm so shocked. I'm sorry, Jarm. I don't mean to be so shocked, but holy hell. Let's do it. No, I'm thrilled. Hooray. We're thrilled for you, Jarm.

Congratulations. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning you just heard a second date update from a few months ago and we actually have the couple back on the phone with us oh i'm so excited jarm and laurie welcome back hi thanks for having us oh that's a happy voice jar are you there uh i am here, and I am also happy. Yeah, Jarn's back! Sounds like it. Okay, what does that mean? How's things been since you guys were on the show with us a few months ago? They've been pretty good.

It's been nice. You know, it was kind of tough at first. Definitely caught a lot of flack from friends and family for dating a guy that put me on air. Right. That's awesome. So what was the second date like uh we went to dinner uh-huh i want you guys to know that i took your advice and i started the second date off with a zebra joke oh no you want to hear it we said yeah no i want to hear the joke okay what's the joke you want to hear it? Yes. Go ahead.

Okay. Why aren't zebras fans of coloring books? They don't like having to stay in between the lions. Lions. Okay. I don't know if that was worth it, Jarm.

I think that got Lauren to the bedroom with that one. I don't know if that was worth it, Jarm. I think that got Lori into the bedroom with that one. I don't know about all that. So wait, has there been more dates since then? Are you guys like a couple? We've actually been on four dates since the second date, so that would make six dates. Wow. Okay.

So what are you thinking, Lori? Where's your status at? I mean, he's exactly right. Definitely no titles yet. We are just taking it slow. And, you know, yeah, it's going good. So you're not official. Well, we're not official, but we have kissed a few times.

And, you know, I don't want to kiss and tell, but we did kiss. Okay, that's exactly right. Oh, my God. Okay, now my parents are definitely going to give me even more. But, no, we only kiss. We haven't gone all the way. It's just kissing. Okay, good.

We don't need to kiss. Oh, my God. Jarm. Shut it. Oh, my God. I feel like Jarm's going to call us in a couple months and be like, yeah. He's going to forward us some pics. He's like, Lori just sent me these.

And, you know, just like in exchange for us giving you this update, if you guys could pay for it like you did last time. What? You know, just like in exchange. Okay, so you want to get paid for calling us. No, not paid. Just, you know, maybe you would pay for the date. Yeah, okay.

Oh. Do you have anything else? No. Improv is fine. That sounds amazing. Improv is great, Darm. Okay, fine. Yeah, I guess we'll take that then.
