2nd Date Update PODCAST: Fake Dog

to talk to Marco, who is a go getter? What's up, Marco? Hey, what's going on? Guys? I feel not much. I really I enjoyed reading your email and I love the creativity and how you got your date. Yeah, yeah, I thought it was pretty creative. Yeah, it's very creative. Go ahead and tell everybody how you scored a date with a girl that you want to call to day. What's your name, Erica? Erica?

Tell everybody how you scored a date with Erica. Okay, So I live like two blocks from this little dog park in my area, so I always seeing Erica out there with her dog like all the time. She's like really cute, really pretty, like great sense of style. Um, and I'd see her there like all the time. I saw her almost every single weekday, like she was out there whenever I'd walk past, like you know, get ready to go for work or whatever. She was always out

here pretty much. Right. No, yeah, it sounds kind of STALKERD. You do have a dog and all of this? Right? No, not really, I mean not really. Okay, it sounds really STALKERD. I promise, I promise. I had did intentions though, um but so I would walk back every single day, and like I always was like trying to get up the nerve to talk to her, but I didn't have a dog, so I thought it would look really creepy if I just like walked over into a dog. Part I was like, hey,

you know what's going on? Um So I was trying to figure out, you know, how I could talk to her. And then I realized, my buddy Nick has this chocolate lab that's like really awesome, like really sweet dog named Toby, Like I know him really well. Um so I kinda hinted to him, maybe you let me borrow your dog for a day. Did you tell him what it was about when you were borrowing the dog or did you just ask him? Oh? No, I oh, of course I told him about it. He was I mean, he was

into it. So so you know, whatever, man, when you went to the dog park with your borrow dog, did you tell her that that wasn't actually your dog you were just dog sitting or did you try to pass it off as that's my pup? Oh no, Toby was totally my dog at that point. All right, It obviously worked for you because you scored a day. Yeah. So actually we like, we we got to talking while we were at the park. You know, the dogs met, they

seem to like each other. So um, I told him, you know, I live really nearby if you want to come by and chat and talk a little bit and the dogs can hang out, I guess, like one on one. I don't know if doggy dates or like a thing at this point that I didn't all about, but so like we brought them, brought them over for like a little doggie play date. Wasn't it obvious though, that it wasn't your dog when she walked into your apartment and there's no like water bowl or feed bowl, or you

don't have a place to put your leash. Boys, I mean, well I did, like when she she went to the bathroom, like as soon as she came in, and I put out like a little bowl. I mean it wasn't like an official dog bowl, but you know I put out like a bowl of water, like you know. I tried to think. I tried to think as quickly as I could about it. A dog owner, I think it's a great idea. I mean I don't know, like how much different do I I don't need to like baby proof,

you know, it's not like with a baby. I was like, I don't have to have like, you know, the electrical outlets like change your well, if this doesn't work out for you, that could be next. Women love dudes with babies. Actually, one of my buddies just had a baby, so that look, you got options for days. So how did everything else go once you got to your apartment? I mean things were going all right. Um, you know, we talked for

a while and then I told her. I was like, you know, I'm about to I'm about to make dinner. Do you want to hang out? I figured, you know, maybe a little dinner, a little wine, things that get happening a little bit. Um. She seemed pretty into it.

She's like, yeah, yeah, of course, and then her dog started getting kind of like I don't know, I don't want to say like angry, but like, you know, he started getting like snippy a little bit um, and she was like, oh, this is this is when he eats dinner usually, And then I kind of like freaked out for a second. I was like, oh God, I don't have any dog food. Luckily, she's like, oh, he eats he eats like a very specific type of dog food anyway.

I mean, of course he's likely specific type. So she's like, you know, I think we'll get going, and I was like, all right, you know whatever. Her dog kind of blown up my spot here because he's got to go eat his yeah, exactly. So you know, we exchanged numbers and stuff. So she said she'd get back to me, you know, maybe take like a rain check on the dinner. But unfortunately that has not happened yet. How many times have you tried to reach out to her. I've texted her

three times? Three times. You know, at some point in the future, you're gonna have to come clean about the dog lie, Like, you can't keep hanging out with her and every time going to borrow the chocolate lab before you go pick her up. For a date. I mean, I'm not above splinging his dog. I mean I figured no, but like down I don't know, down the road. Every I feel like every couple has one of those like cute like, oh, you know, I stopped you at the park for a while, you lied about being a dog

owner so I could come meet you. Do you live off a busy street Marcot? Do you live off of a busy street? It's pretty busy, so okay, Well then one day the dog ran out in the street and oh and then now you get pity dates out of it. Dude, just consult me. Okay, do you think that's that's pretty genius? Yeah, all right, Well you haven't heard anything from her at since she's aft your house? Okay? And have you seen

her at the park while you've been walking by? No, that's the other weird thing, Like she was there like almost every weekday, and now like I haven't seen her. It's like a week and a half maybe, and I haven't seen her at all. All right, Well, play a song, come back, call her and get your second date update. Okay, awesome, great? Thanks? All right, man hanging frooking jubil in the morning. We're right in the middle of a second date update, and if you're just tuning in, Marco is on the phone.

Marco had a very creative way to meet the girl that he went on a date with. He borrowed his friend's dog so that he could talk to her at the dog park. Apparently he lives by a dog park. He's seen her there before, but he doesn't have a dog, and he's like, how do I go into this dog park without a dog and not be a creep? So he borrowed his friend's dog. They talked for a while,

went back to his apartment while the dogs played. He was gonna make her dinner, and then she said, oh, I have to leave because my dog's getting anty and he needs his special food at home. She left, walked out the door, and he hasn't talked to her since, right, Marco, you ready for your second date update? Yeah, definitely. I think she called you out on your lie. Why didn't you just tell her you were dog sitting? You know, maybe in hindsight that might have been a little better idea,

but I wanted to. You know, she's a dog owner, I'm a dog you know. It was I thought it would be the mess you just almost called yourself a dog owner. She's a dog owner. I'm sort of a dog owner. A lie if you believe it, that's true. That is very true. All right, man, I'm gonna doll her phone number right now and get her on the phone and find out why she's not calling you back. All right, awesome, here we go. Hello. Hi is this Erica? Yeah, hi Erica. My name is Jubil and I host a

radio show Brook and Jewel in the Morning. Have you heard of it? Who is this? My name is Jubil. I'm calling you today because one of our listeners asked if I could track you down and get you on the phone. And yeah, it's just as creepy. Sound Um that does that's weird. I'll explain. His name is Marco and you recently met him at the dog park. He's been trying to text you because he wants to hang out, but you haven't been getting back to him, so he asked us if we get you on the phone and

find out why. Oh my gosh, really he called a radio station. Yes, I just tracking me down. That's really cute. Do you like Marco? Well, yes, I'm being honest. I really really liked him. Um, I sort of just don't want to seem like over eager, like I like him too much because he's kind of like my dream guy. What what why are you calling him back? Then? He's a silly girl. I'm actually just hoping that it sort of happened like organically and we naturally just like run

into each other at the dog park again. Um, but it hasn't happened yet, So I wonder why. I wonder why you guys haven't been able to meet up at the dog park. I mean he's probably always there with his dog. Was dog named Toby. Toby. Yeah, No, I don't know. I haven't seen him at all. Strange. No, he was super sweet and he just seemed like so nice. Oh yeah, that's cool when like two dog owners can find each other. I've always thought that was really cool

because you guys have like a common interest. Oh my gosh, I know. I'm obsessed with dogs. I love them, and it always just like touches me when a guy really like is sweet to animals, I think that it sends a lot about them. And like he really seemed to lost Toby, So that was Is that like the number one thing that you like about him? Is his responsibility. And um, honestly, the number one thing that I really

liked is that he seemed so honest. And I've dated so many guys before that have turned out to be total liars and two bags, and I just feel like you can't trust a lot of guys these days, and he just seemed so trustful and just so Yeah. But like I said, I do not want to be the over eager, like the eager beaver. I don't want to drive him away with like being like a little schoolgirl weirdo. All right, you don't want him to know that you

feel that way about him just yet. No, no, no, no, no, he needs to We need to ease into that and get to well you're gonna have to ease into it a little faster because he's actually on the other line listening to this conversation and I would like to talk to you. What Yeah, no, guy, Marco, Hey, go oh my god, um embarrassed, No, don't be embarrassed. That's sweetest thing as I had ever heard before. Oh my god, you probably think I am totally psycho. No, no, not

at all, not at all. I thought it was like the nicest thing anyone's ever said about me. Oh my god, I don't believe this is happening. Well, it's good to hear you again. It's good to hear you. Um, I'm sorry I didn't text. I know I should have responded. I just didn't want to like push it or whatever. But I've been wanting to respond. No, it's okay, don't worry about it. I totally get it. I mean, I'm sorry I kept texting you. I just really wanted to see you again. I thought we had like a really

I mean, I had a really great time. I was hoping you, Oh my god, so much fun. I just feel I've actually been at the Doc Truk like hoping that i'd run into you. Yeah. I was hoping to bump into you too, but I don't. I guess maybe we just weren't there at the same time. Yeah, okay, Well, why don't we get together, like I don't know, today, bring Toby and I'll bring butters, and now we can hear. Um, what what do you think Marco? Like? You? Guys both obviously like each other a lot. Why is it taking

so long to say yes, Marco? U? No? Today's um kind of it. It's not just a kind of a whole week has kind of been a little bad. No, Marco, you have to tell her. Tell me what? Um so, Toby's not really um with us anymore? Oh serious? What does that mean? I don't I mean, I don't really want to talk like specific about it. But um it was an accident. Oh, come on, Marco, Marco, what are you doing? Man? What happened? Marco? Come on? All right? Oh okay, God just give me. Let me talk to

her for a second. Um wait, what's going on? Is you okay? Are you okay? Okay? Yeah, No, I'm fine. Um oh yeah, Marco's perfectly fine. Erica, Why are they laughing? Marco? I don't get it, Okay, I'm fine. Toby is there was an accident? Stop it, Marco. Man, I was like a carr. I was joking earlier when I said you could do that, Marco. Marco, just tell her why you did it. She may understand what's going on. I'm really confused right now. I can't believe you actually tried that.

All right, hold just all right. If you don't tell her, I'm going to tell her right now. Marco. You want to do it, you don't want you do, then you let me talk for a minute. Okay, Okay, I can do this. Um so, Erica, who is gonna sound like really bad? But just hear me out. I don't know, Okay, So I wasn't fully, like a hundred percent honest about everything with you, Erica. Um okay, Toby's not really my dog? Um what I It's just I've seen you every day I live. I mean, you saw how close I live.

I see you there like all the time, and I just every time I see you, I've always wanted to come up and talk to you, but like I never wanted to seem like that weirdo who goes to the dog park without a dog. So I asked a friend of mine if I could borrow his dog for the day. I know, even saying it like it sounds really weird, but I like, I promise, like my heart was in the right place, Like I just I wanted to talk to you, and I I'm not really good with like openers.

I guess like I thought, like, you know, this could be a good icebreaker. Like wait, okay, so you lied to me. I mean lied is a strong word. Yeah. No, I I just I really wanted to meet you, and I thought this might be the easiest way. I'm really sorry. It's just like bothers you a lot, but I wanted to talk to you, and I didn't really have the guts to just you know, you're beautiful, I mean like and like, I don't know, just like seeing like the way you interacted with Butters, Like I was like, this

chick seems awesome. I mean, I just I really wanted to talk to you, and I didn't have the guts to do it. Erica, that's so cute. You got to give him a second chance. Remember, he did try to tell you the dog died. I'm just I panicked about that. He's kind of an idiot, but he's an adorable one give another. Okay, I'm just trying to get this straight. So you just borrowed Toby. Is that even his name? No? Yeah, his name's really told me okay, Okay, everything else was

true except the part that he was mine. Okay, So you just borrowed Toby to meet me because he kept seeing me. That's actually like really sweet. There's a lot of trouble just meet me. Yes, yeah, well, I mean it was worth it. I mean, after the night we spent together, like hanging out and just talking like I wish it had been like under one hundred percent truthful situation, but like, hey, Erica, think about it this way. At least he borrowed the dog from a friend and didn't

steal somebody else's dog. The silver line. Yeah, it is very sweet. Yeah, like, I've never had a guy go through this whole like backstory, and I definitely never had to guy borrow a pet me. I mean, well, Erica, would you like to go out with Marco again on a second date? We'll pay for it, Yeah, I will live. Yes, congratulations Marco, you got a second date. Awesome. Oh my god, that's so great. I'm so happy, Marco. Don't go like borrow friend's cat before the next day, I go, I

got a cat down. I was thinking bringing a ferret dinner broken jubil in the morning.
