Brooke and Jeffrey: Second Date Update - Summertime Challenge: Fancy (Pet) Food Reviews

Episode Date: September 17, 2026

We've seen the texts and comments and we couldn't let Summer end without the "You Wouldn't Dare Summertime Challenge" happening! It's all going down at one time, in studio and there's some mystery meals ready for each and every host!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

I just want to let everyone know that we survived. We survived what's about to happen, okay? Gosh, but I'm still pouting about it. You've got a brand new episode on your hands, and I'm going to let you know that the second-day audience is not prepared for it. No. Here's the deal. This show, we do a lot of other stuff besides second-date updates and awkward Tuesdays.

And every year, we do something called the, what is it? It's the worst name ever. Summertime Challenge. Summertime Challenge. How dare you? Yeah, that's right. How dare you summertime challenge? You wouldn't dare.

That's summertime challenge. Obviously, it's catchy and we all remember the title. Super short, simple. And in the past, we have done stupid things. Like, we did an Olympics where we had to put mayonnaise in our pants. And then sit down and do sit-ups. I did a fast food decathlon. If you already follow the social medias,

it did get reposted this summer, where I went through Jack in the Box 10 times in a row and couldn't order my next thing until I had already finished. What I just got. I did finish it. Okay. I did complete the challenge.

You were good. We thought we were out of it. We thought it wasn't going to happen. Summer was anything. Yeah. Producer Boyd never said anything. Yep. Until today.

Yeah. And so I would like to put a disclaimer on the next brand new episode and just say, I'm sorry. Go to our YouTube, African Jeffrey, to watch it. Yeah. Someone call my lawyer. Okay. Here we go. Well, this is probably a bad sign.

What? Our digital producer is setting up cameras in the studio right now, and I don't know why. A photo shoot? We're not doing a photo shoot. We're not scheduled to do any second date call or awkward thing. Brooks' makeup is, let's just say, taking a mini break right now. I put on red lipstick today. Thank you very much, Jeffrey.

I made my point. But apparently, whatever's about to happen is going to be up on our YouTube at Brooke and Jeffrey. Uh-oh. Maybe it'll be fun. Yeah, sure. Why don't we know about it? I don't know. It's being kept a mystery, so get ready for whatever our producer is setting up.

He's saying it's going to be a special mystery segment. Don't like that. Why? That's never a good thing. We're going to find out coming up right after this. This just in, summer's almost officially over. Oh, don't say that. Yeah.

It's come and gone so fast. It's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. And did we accomplish everything we wanted out of it? No. Not really. I mean, did we have some vacation time? Sure. Did we enjoy fireworks in July?

Yeah, I guess. Speaking of fireworks, the summer of cyclospora had things shooting everywhere. Extremely memorable summer. Yeah, so I guess we lost some weight. Yeah. But I do feel like there's one thing that we missed. And since the official end of summer is on Tuesday, we don't have a lot of time. We've got to do this now.

What is it? Are you ready to do a little you wouldn't dare summertime challenge? No! So many listeners have texted the morning yet. It's over, Jeff. It's not officially over. We did the Ashton living with his parents thing instead of the summer challenges. That was just a personal crisis.

That's not a summer challenge. What are your guys' thoughts? Did you think our producer would actually forget about this? We've been doing this for six years now, and we're not just going to take. a summer off. And since technically it is still summer, we do have a little bit of time left. He wants to squeak it in there. And this one is going to be a little bit different. We're not filling each other's diapers with mayonnaise and doing sit-ups in a public park. I appreciate that. We actually did that. And we should probably post a throwback video.

It'll be worse than that. It wasn't diapers. It was just our actual pants. It felt like a diaper when we were done. And we're not having to a fast food decathlon. We couldn't afford to do it even if we wanted to. I did go back to Jack in the box this. You finally made it back. I did. Proud of you. She got over the trauma.

But no, this year, we're doing it right now, right here in the studio. Oh, Ashley. We make that look fancy. This is Ashley. Yeah. So here's what's happening. Four mystery bowls are being brought in studio on a royal platter. And underneath each one is a mystery.

I don't even. No, I've not been brought in the loop on this. Ashton, our technical director, has been working on it with our producer. And he's the only one who knows what's inside each bowl. I didn't want to hate you, too, Ashton. Ashton, tell us what's going on. Well, something that all four of you have in common is that all of you are pet lovers. Oh, my God, we're eating cats and bun.

Oh, my God. I have to open the bowl. I have not had lunch yet, so let's do it. So to prove that your love for all animals, you are going to sample their food. Oh, no, I'd rather eat the cat or the dog now. And then you give us an extra fancy review where you talk like this using pretentious words to describe your unique dining experience. It's cute you think we can do that. Oh, yeah.

He sounds so fancy. I think you can, and I know you will, Alexis. So good luck. This is what we've been reduced to is eating pet food. Ashton, this was your big idea. This is as good as you can get. This is all the creativity you could deliver. It's the end of summer, Brooke.

I don't know what you want for me. So good luck, everyone. May the feast be ever in your favor. Okay. So all the bowls have a number on top of it, and we each have to choose a number, and that's going to be our bowl that we're going to sample. We don't have to eat the whole thing,

but we're not allowed to use our hands or shaking. or try to figure out what's inside. So. Just face down? Like a dog. So Alexis, you're going first. Pick your number. Okay, number three. How are you excited about this?

All right, Alexis, as you remove the covering off the top, Ashton will describe what your summertime meal is. And I've heard rumors that some are going to actually be worse than others. So take your top up. Or take your, take your, open the bowl. All right, Alexis, you are going to be eating duck, chicken, and quino-flavored wet dog food. That sounds so good. You get that at like a French restaurant.

Can you do it? Do you need something to pee? Yeah, could you guys water? It smells so bad. All right, Alexis, try. Her hand is shaking. How do dogs look forward to this? Oh, my gosh, she ate it.

Okay, well, now remember, part of your challenge is to do the fancy food review for what flavors you're getting. It's a British accent, right? Sure. Whatever you think is fancy. It tastes like what it smells like. It tastes like disgusting. Yeah.

Like, puke. Like if I ate food, threw it up and then eat it again. Oh, ate it again. Which dogs like. Yeah, put that on the bag. Okay. So there you go. Gross.

Alexis has completed officially her summertime. You wouldn't dare. Oh, thank you. Ew, Ashton. And I guess that means we're on to Brooke now. I'm sweating. I'm, like, kind of queasy. I'm not even lying.

Well, time to choose your number. Which bowl are you going to go for? Four. It's looking at me. Okay. Ashden will tell us what's inside. All right, Brooke. You chose number four.

That is chicken-flavored cat treats with a crunchy outside and a creamy inside. I mean, you got dry food. That is like. Creamy inside, though. Oh my God. You want me to eat this? All right, let's do a countdown for Brooke. Here we go.

Three, two, one. Oh, my God. Oh, wow, the crunch. At least you got the sound on the light. Oh, wow. Oh, Brooke's spitting it out, too. Is it creamy on the inside like it was advertised? Water doesn't help.

Really? Let's do the fancy food review, Brooke. And make sure to use three of those fancy words. Shut up, Bastian. There was nothing transcendent. or artisanal at all or refined about this disgusting bowl of rubbish. Oh, okay. So, I'm getting that she likes it.

That was my accent. I said rubbish. That is disgusting. Was it creamy inside? No, there was no cream. That was only hard. Well, Brooke has completed her challenge and, wow, look at that. We are out of time. You can't be.

You too. We are all done. But you know what? Seriously? Luckily for us, it's a two-part segment. For our surprise, you wouldn't dare summertime challenges. That's for you is right. Two more to come as we count down the final few days of summer.

What's under the last two mystery bowls? We're about to find out, sample them, and give our fancy pet food reviews. Management if you're listening, cancel us. Right now, cancel the show. We'll do it right after this. God, I wish I had mayonnaise. my pants right now instead of this. I do too. You haven't even had to do it yet.

It's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Make sure to subscribe to our YouTube so you can actually watch this. You're going to want to be a part of it. But if you're just joining us, we're squeezing in a last second edition of our annual universally beloved segment

that you wouldn't dare summertime challenge. How is it possibly the worst one we've ever done? Honestly, I would take Jack in the box triathlon, decaplon, whatever, all over again. They're feeding us for free and we're complaining about it. It's not for humans, Jeff.

But there's still about a week of summer that's left until it's officially over. So right now, for our challenge, we've got a bunch of bowls in front of us with mystery meals inside of them. Those meals are pet food meals. And our task is to sample one, then give it a fancy food review about what we just put our mouth. And so far, Alexis has done a duck chicken quinoa wet dog food. Very, very fancy sounding. Brooke, meanwhile, then did chicken-flavored cat treats with a crunchy outside and a gooey interior. There was no cream on the inside. Well, now it is Jose's turn. Jose, it is time for your

fancy pet food review. Which number bowl are you choosing? I think I'm going to go too. All right. I'm nervous for you. Jose. I'm just going to throw up a meeting. Don't be nervous. Let's grab bowl number two and put it in front of Jose. So we're going to remove the lid as Ashton tells us what is inside.

Jose, you picked number two. You are going to be eating a quail duck and chicken dog jerky. Oh, jerky. Refined. You love quails. This was locked. Who locked the ball? They're all taped.

It's sealed in the flavor. Oh, my God. It smells like the foot of a dog expired. Oh. Like if a dog got gang green. Yeah, well, the stinkiest cheeses are usually the most flavorful. So I think that's a good sign. Jose, whenever you're ready, you can sample your dish and then we'll hear your fancy food review.

It's a hard junkie, right? It's like a sticky one. It's a sticky joke. It's got a little, it's not sticky. It's in the middle. It's moist. Ah, extra flavor. It's not.

Well, at least it's not dry. Mine was very dry. Mine was mushy. I'm percussing. Honestly, Alexis got the worst one, and that set the tone for me. Like, I am checked out of this. Okay, but don't finish the whole thing. I want to try some of that when you're done.

See, how do you guys joke like that? I don't know that that one looks as bad as the rest of us. It looks like normal jerky to me. It smells like fish food. Okay, we'll do a count. It sounds like... Yeah. Let me get a little.

Brooke, we want to smell more? Yeah, that's it. It's fish food. I could see that going inside of me. Anyway, what is it in? So we need to do a countdown. Oh, my God. Are you ready?

Quail duck and chicken. Does that make it better for you? Actually, theoretically, it should taste pretty good. I could see you doing a food review on your page about this, Jose. No, not on dog food. I mean, it's a place that hasn't been tapped. They do say if you want to go viral, niche. Yes, so here we go.

This could be your future. Oh, my God, please don't go viral. Here we go. Don't look like on this. Three, two, one. Oh, that's a big bite. Oh, you did a big bite. I'm doing after two.

Oh, I'm going to have to do. Oh. I think he likes it. Was that his fancy accent? That was. It was like a flavor changer. It's a mystery. Whatever that is also isn't good.

Okay. These are expired. Can I get a taste of that a little bit too? No. I just want to get a nymph. No one's going to taste it. Wow, that's wasteful. Okay.

How would you describe this in your fanciest review? It tastes ethereal. like garbage odifferously trash and sumptuously shi can I say that

poopy I think in England that means something else so it's probably fair okay I spit on it Jose I think maybe you got off easy getting some jerky

I got off easier than Alexis I'll tell you that I feel like they're a smell it in my mouth oh yeah it is my turn Do we still have time or do we have to go to commercial? This is going to be an off-air stuff. Okay.

So that leaves me with one bowl left. Bowl number one. My eyes are watering from gagging. I'm going to take the lid off. And Ashton described to me what is about to go inside of my body. This is my personal favorite. You are eating steak frets with beef pumpkin and sweet potato and gravy wet cat food. What?

What? This definitely looks like it was. looks like it was predigested. Oh, you just showed it to us. Yeah, it definitely slides slowly around the bowl.

This isn't even funny. I don't know why we're doing this. Okay. Okay. That is disgusting. My face is in my hoodie now. I am so glad. I'm plugging my nose.

I actually feel bad for you. Why? It actually looks like capuque. You know what? It doesn't smell that bad. It's got fruit chunks in it. It's got little chunks of mango. Shunks!

I couldn't even follow Ashen's description. There were so many things listed there. Beef, pumpkin and sweet potato. Sweet potatoes and pumpkins? In gravy. Oh my God, this could be a PSL if you just put a little coffee in there. I'm about to throw up over years more than mine. Okay, so I think if you're going to eat some pet food, you have to eat it like a pet.

And that means no utensils. I want the authentic experience. Can I get a countdown on it? Yeah. I do a hundred from a hundred, so I don't have to process. I'm in the mouth. Ewe. Okay.

Ready? Three, two, one. I'm not looking. No! Jeff! Okay. Change the station. Change the station.

Turn off the video. No, honestly. Oh my God, I'm not looking. It's dripping down your beard. I'm going to throw up. We've had chili cookoffs here that are much, much worse. Oh my God. I'm not just kidding.

What is what is this? I'm not. You're going to get. I don't know what's happening because I'm not watching anymore. I throw up. It's an exquisite aftertaste. How is anyone attracted to you? Exquisite?

Exquisite. Notes of savory, a bit of sweet, a bit of nuttiness. And an aftertaste that's purely reverberant, if I do say so. 10 out of 10 stars. 10 out of 10 stars. You wouldn't fit your own dog that. That is nasty. I would keep it for myself.

Why would I waste the good meals? I can't look at you the same. That was quite delicious. You can't see it if you're not watching the video right now. He didn't go in just once full face into this food. Like get a mouthful and have it all over his beard, but he went in a second time and had more. There's a little on my microphone. In your beard.

Okay. Okay. Well, officially we have. I don't know whether to be in my beard. impressed or just never talk to you again. That was the worst part of the challenge. The point is we've done it. We have completed another year of you wouldn't dare summertime challenges.

I'd like to request a trade to another morning show. Yeah. Before next summer. None of us were ready for this, but we put our heads together. I can't even look at you. You put your face into the pet. Our faces in and we did it. I'm hoping personally there's some leftovers.

Did you switch your mouth out? Why would I get that flavor out? Let it marinate in there. For the amount of time it was stuck in your beard. I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't. I'm not lying. There's still some left over. Ew.

Okay. I don't want to feed my pets out anymore. I want to give them real food now. Now I see why people make the switch.
