2nd Date Update UPDATE PODCAST: Back From Overseas

of a long story with me and Hannah early. Um. Yeah, like he said, I met her in a karaoke bar, and you know, I'm not a good singer or anything, but I just was so tempted to break the ice in some way. I asked her to do a duet with me, and despite my horrible voice, she she put up with it and sang Summer Nights from Greece with her nice. Yeah, I was awesome. It's actually an interesting story. Why you weren't able to call her back for a year.

Go ahead and tell everybody what happened. I had to ship out for the Marine Corps, and you know, I told her i'd call her. I was very much attracted to this woman, but I just couldn't let myself start something that I knew I was going to have to put on hold, you know what I mean. So, are you stationed back here again or I mean your home? Yeah, I am back, and that's kind of why I'm contacting you. Guys. You know, your email says that you promised to call her,

and you feel bad because you haven't. I do, but I you know, I need to let her know that I was doing that for the right reason, you know what I mean. Yeah, it's kind of sweet. I mean, it's like a little love story. They could start some big celebrities on the big screen. This could all work out amazingly. Or or she could be married and have four kids. You don't know, you never know. Oh, I mean, I hope that's not the case. But so since you've

been back, i'm serving your tour. Have you heard anything about her? No. I as soon as I got back and got comfortable, I realized something that I left behind. You know, the old time that I was overseas, she was all I thought about the entire time. Are you worried that she's not going to feel the same I mean, it's been a long time. I am worried. I mean, I have no idea what to expect in terms of how she feels at this point. I mean, it has been a while and she probably thinks that I was

rejecting her. What was it about her? Just the confidence of her that was the biggest thing for me. You know, when she was up there singing karaoke, it was like she looked so comfortable, Like it blew my mind, and I'm really awkward when it comes to doing stuff like that in front of big groups of people. But as soon as I went up there and shared the stage with her, it was like I felt like a completely

different person. I knew at any point after you met her, did you tell her that night, like, Oh, I'm gonna be leaving soon to go overseas. I wasn't sure what to say because I didn't want to ruin the moment that night. I didn't want to let her know that this was all for nothing, basically because I'm leaving. I couldn't break it to her at that point. So how did that end that night? I mean, you guys hung

out after you sang together, and then what happened? You know, I didn't want to push things too far because I didn't want there to be a big emotional connection there, even though they wound up being one anyway for me. But I mean, I kissed her, I said good night, and I told her i'd call her. And I feel really bad for not doing that. And you haven't tried it all since you've been back to get hold of her. No,

I haven't. But I heard from my friends about the whole second day things that you guys do, and I thought that might be a good way to find out how she really feels. All right, perfect. What we're gonna do is gonna play a song, come back, call her and get your second day update. Okay, all right, sounds good. Brooking Cuba in the morning update. Oh it's the old story. Guy meets a girl at a karaoke night. Guy promises to call her the next day. Guy disappears for a

year and now wants to reconnect with her. That's what we're doing right now. In the second day update, Philip is on the phone. Philip met a girl named Hannah at a karaoke night about a year ago. Now. He is in the Armed Services, had to go overseas for a year he didn't call her the next day, ended up leaving, and now he's back and wants to get in touch with her. Philip, how are you feeling right now? To be honest with you, I'm very nervous about this.

You know, I've been thinking about this for a while, and I'm worried that I screwed up. I don't know. I mean, you said you were thinking about her every day for an entire year when you were overseas. Yeah, there are points where I even considered trying to contact her, but I was just worried that it would seem weird coming out of the blue after one date. I don't know, but I do feel very strongly about her. All Right, I'm gonna call her right now. Okay, you ready? All right?

There we go. Hello. Hey, is this Hannah? Hannah? How are you? This is Jewel from Brook and Jewil in the Morning. What this is Jewil from Brooke and Jewil in the Morning. It's a radio show? How you doing this? Is this a joe? No, it's not a joke. I know this is gonna sound kind of weird, but do you remember meeting a guy named Philip at a karaoke night about a year ago? What what's going on? Does that story about meeting a guy named Philip a year ago at a karaoke night sound familiar to you? How

do you know about Phil? Oh? Phil and I go way back. Yeah, I've known him for longer than you have. Phil is back in town. I you don't know this, but Phil didn't call you after you met because he was leaving to go overseas in the Armed Services. Oh my gosh, she was overseas. But he has emailed us and asked us to get a hold of you. Why because he says that he really connected with you that

night a year ago. And now you don't know this, but in his words, he said, he's thought about you the entire time, and now he's back and he wanted to get a hold of you. Did you like Philip? I yeah, Oh my gosh, this is so cute. She's excited. Would you think when Philip didn't call you back the

next day after you met him? Wow? Um? I mean this is like cheesy to say, but it kind of broke my heart really really, you know, have you ever had those moments in life for you like this is big, this is super important, this is like magic Right now, yeah, and it was. And then I never heard from him again, and it was like it had been a dream or something. Okay, so let's see where are you at now. So Philip has been gone a year, he's back in town and he wants to get a hold of you. Wow, I

wish I had, don't. I spent like four months pining over this one evening. But then a couple of months ago, I a friend set me up with a friend, and I've been seeing him for a couple of months. Yeah, but how serious is it? I mean, we're only a couple of months in and you're obviously like, pining over a guy for four months is crazy after one night, a guy that you met on one night, you have no idea about it. But you've been seeing somebody for a little while, Yeah, I have. I've got a boyfriend.

There's something so powerful that's happening here. So you have a boyfriend. Yeah, okay, Now do you want to talk to Philip at all? Um? I don't know. I asked the question because Philip is actually on the other line right now. How are you? Oh my god, are you there? Yeah, I'm here, high listen Honestly, right now, I'm really disappointed, not wanting you by any means, just in myself for letting this go as long as I did. And I

didn't expect you to wait for me. But I really need to tell you that that night it meant a lot to me. That's the first time in my life where I've really felt like I met someone that took me out of my shell, you know, for the first time, I felt like I was around somebody that I could be completely honest with, and and so I could. I couldn't stop thinking about it while I was overseas. But I felt so guilty for not calling you and for not telling you that I was going there in the

first place. And oh, I wish you had. I wish you had. I don't really wish I had. I didn't. I didn't know. I thought maybe you didn't even you didn't have the experience that I had. I just know I want you to know that I did. And I'm not doing this like at this point, all everything that I'm saying, I'm not doing in spite of your boyfriend to try to steal you away from him or anything. I'm speaking completely from my heart. And that night meant

so much to me. It really got me through my stint overseas you know, but I understand if you have a boyfriend. I'm not trying to intrude on that. I decided trying to know how I feel You're You're so sweet and the connection that we shared was so amazing that I wish you'd called me, Sarah. I know the chiming is horrible, but I have to try, you know, I have to when I feel strongly about the person, I can't just give up on that person. So both you guys felt the same way about that night? Yeah,

I think we did. Yeah. And are you like in love with your boyfriend? I mean, have you guys gone to that level? That's a really hard question to answer, actually, And I mean and I and I don't want to sound shallow, but sometimes you meet people and it's just like everything lines up and it just all clicks, and sometimes it takes time to start to uncover that. And my boyfriend is definitely someone that it takes time to

uncover with. Is that what you're saying, Hannah, that like you still don't really feel as strongly about your boyfriend as you do about that night with Philip. I don't know, it's it's more complex than that. I just know if I was in your situation, I would go back to this boyfriend and all I could think about was this man who's come back into my life after a year, and what am I doing? Look, I don't, I don't know.

That's this has gotten really complicated, all of them, and really I'm I'm not trying to create problems for you. That's not something I want to do. That's that was never my intention. But feelings or feelings, you can't ignore them, Hannah. What if we send you guys out on a on a second date, we will pay for it, meet up with him. You guys can have a conversation. You don't have to. It doesn't even have to be called a

date if you don't want it to be. If you have a boyfriend, I mean, that night is so it's like it's one of the most vivid experiences of my life and it feels like it would be wrong to ignore that, and this could get me in really big trouble. No, Hannah, you don't ever have to tell your boyfriend. This isn't something we can ignore. You know, we can't just go on with our lives and pretend that didn't happen. I think it's worth seeing if that was just a one

off fluke or if there actually is something there. And if there is, then I have some hard decisions to make. So, Hannah, you are going to go out with Philip again? Yeah? Awesome? Are you going to tell your boyfriend? Yeah? I am. I mean I want to. I want to be completely upfront about this whole thing. I don't I don't want to leave things to chance again. Okay, my next question, we're running a little light on content. Can we do it tomorrow at seven ten? Can we do it on

the air? Broken Jewel in the morning. That was a second day update that happened a few years ago. Oh my god. Now Philip and Hannah are back on the phone with us to do a second date update update. Hey guys, how are you hid? So this is the first time you've talked since that second day update or sometime we've talked to you guys. Oh my god, I've dying. This was like the beginning of some crazy love stories, how I felt? Yeah? Oh really, well that's so? And

then well I'm really worried about being disappointed. We did We went back to the karaoke place where we first met a year before. And wait, were you still with your boyfriend when you went and met at the karaoke bar? Or had you broken up with him? I told him I was going and by the end of the night I broke up with him. A poor guy. I don't need to celebrate his heartbreak. But did that work out

well for you guys? Are you guys together? What's the story? Well, I mean the connection was like just totally re established. It felt like exactly like it felt the first time, you know, so, and it was like no time had past at all. Oh yeah, and so not ignoring that strong connection that we had. I couldn't help myself. I've decided to propose. Or just a week after that, you guys got games a week where you know, it felt crazy at the time, but it was the best decision

I could have made. You say, you got married a month after? Yeah, you know, we're enthusiastic about the whole thing, and still are. You know, it was very spontaneous, but it just made sense. I spent so long thinking of her, she spent so long thinking of me. Oh my gosh, what did your family and friends say when you got married a month after meeting? Well, we ended up having a really tiny wedding, just really just us at the courthouse because we didn't have the money to hold a

big party. Military money only stretches. So how's it going, Well, well, let's be great. I mean, like we we had to kind of economically find a game plan, but actually lucked out because a buddy of mine he kept telling me over and over again, like, hey man, bitcoin's the way to go. Like, seriously, if you want to make money off of the next big thing, you gotta stuff everything

into that. So I me and Hannah conspired and decided to throw all our money in and luckily enough we were in uh when bitcoin peeked out, and so we sold it off. And you know, we made the right choice. So you guys are like bitcoin rich. Well, I mean we are so oft enough to get by on that we're not working, so I mean, wow, that worked out, dude. We might be taking you know, regular vacations to like you know, Turks and Kaikos and Portugal and um we

went to Japan. Yeah, you guys are rich. Screw you guys. Everything where everything worked out for you have no more carbon to cash it. It all happens. Well, I mean obviously, thanks have to go to you guys. I mean, I mean this, None of this would have happened if not for coming to you guys with all this, and I don't know if I would have had the courage to make this happen on my own. So you guys made

this happen. Thanks so much. Thanks doesn't mean as much as a nice paycheck of that big point money this way, you know. I guess that's a know all right. Well, thanks for checking in and congratulations you guys. Seriously, I thank you very much. We are so happy for you. What a cool story. Thank you. Yeah, you guys have kids, not yet, you know it's on the list. We're having a lot of fun right now. You're practicing a lot

in all those exotic destinations. I'm sure you're broken ahead broken jewel in the morning.
