Speaker 1

Second day, right before we came in studio, I was out in the hall and someone was telling me I'm an unlovable husband who won't amount to anything no matter how hard I tried. When I finally mustered up the courage to hang up on Mom, there was no time left for me to prep for this call. So I don't really know anything about it other than the guy's name is Tyler. Do you need a hug? No, I'm

gooder it down. Okay, Yeah, let's welcome Tyler to the show. Tyler, I want you to know, even though the person that you went out with isn't calling you back or acknowledging your existence, I don't think you're unlovable. Oh I appreciate that. To see Jeffrey sad puppy dog eyes right now, Yeah, I can only imagine. Yeah, good Tyler. But we're going to concentrate on you. Yeah, let's concentrate on your blooming love life and all the people that are interested in

ar what's going on? Who would you go out with? What's their name? And we want the whole rundown. So it was actually kind of like a bait by accident. Okay, how does that happen? So I was going to meet friends at a restaurant and I had to park in a parking garage because it's one of those places where like the garage is underneath the restaurant. Yeah right, oh yeah, And so go to get in, and all of a sudden, I hear, so are you hold the elevator? Hold the elevator,

hold the elevator? So she gets in, beautiful, beautiful redhead, and like this happens in movies all the time and everything, but the elevator got stuck. No wait, was it just you and her? Or were your friends already with you? Just being her? My friends were already up in the restaurant. I oh my god. We thought it was really really funny, Like how often does this ever happen? This is ridiculous. Yeah, yeah, we laughed about it for the first ten minutes. Oh oh,

how many minutes more were there? We were in there a total of about thirty minutes. That's still just long enough to really suck. Dude, I have been stuck in an elevator for forty five minutes. Was yeah, and I am with you, Like the first fifteen minutes is like crazy, and then it starts to get kind of scary. Yeah, you're right, And how broken is this thing exactly? And are we going to become elevator people or something? Elevator people are hot apparently if you're a redhead. Yeah, So

what happens during this thirty minute wait in the elevator? So, like I told her I'm there to see friends for a party and everything, she's actually was running light for a first date in the same exact restaurant. Oh, she's actually going on dates. God, what date is going to believe that? She's texting them like I'll be there. But did she really have a date or is that just what women do sometimes where they're like, oh, I'm here

with my boyfriend. Oh yeah, pretty sure she's on the day because she started to ask me, like, what do I text this person so that they actually believe that we're stuck on? Man? What'd you come up with? Just really like, you're we're gonna believe this million in one shot, I get on the elevator and it actually broke like in one of those rom com movies. Oh my god, So now I'm on a date with another dude? Is awesome? Did her date respond to the text? Oh? He responded

with yeah, sure, I wouldn't believe it either. Trying to put yourself. I think a lot of people would go really like you said one in the Yeah, okay, look, if you just don't like me, then that's fine to say that. Wait, how did you turn that into something for you and her? Though? Like because it sounds kind of flirty. It kind of got there at one point because like also kind of gave me like, help me get out of my date because I don't think this

guy really cares and doesn't believe me about this elevator thing. Yeah, that felt a little bit like flirting and laughing, like, oh, we should totally do that to mess with his head type of thing. Okay, I could flirty like Mike can't go on a date, so now I'm free. Yeah, you're already in a restaurant elevator you guys, Yeah, go to the restaurant after if they're still open. Were you able to turn it into a date after it started working again? Well, well,

you finally started working. We both went to the restaurant I has planned where she went to go find her date and I want to go find my friends. Yeah, and lo and behold, everyone we both went looking forward was gone, Yeah, what they use the stairs? The dish you after only half an hour? Honestly, like I just had like a little cursory glance and it was kind of like I'd rather hang with the hot redhead. Okay, so for yourself, how'd that go? It was really really nice.

I mean we hung out the bar, laugh the whole lot. I got her number because neither of us want to really make it like just a waste of a night after we'd stuck in an elevare. It's like, let's hang out for a little bit more, not trapped in up four by four foot box. And dude, that's awesome. And honestly, when you start a date trapped with somebody, it's all up from there. There's like nothing bad that could happen.

It's like you're bonded. You have inside Joe. Yeah, you really know what each other smells like if you're stuck in an elevator. I never The big question is, did you guys take the elevator back down to the parking after it was over. We thought about it, but no, we took the stairs. Sorry, well what happened in the parking lot? Was there a hug, goodbye? A kiss? I walked her too a car. There was not a kiss. We hugged. I got her number, and I've texted her

since and I just haven't got any response. She could have easily just left, you know, like she could have just said, like, my date's not here. Yeah, yeah, she was interested at some point for sure. Definitely felt like it when she left. But I then told her, like, I really feel like everything in the universe happens for a reason, So it just feel like we were kind

of faded to meet. Yeah, maybe you're faded to meet, and maybe you were faded to never see each other ever again, but you were definitely faded to call her because we're gonna play a song. Come back. We'll reach out to Rachel for you and try and get your second date up date. Okay, that'd be great. All right, hold on there, s are we listening to Elevator music

right now? Yes? We are, And it's for a reason, because if you're just joining, Tyler's first date definitely had its ups and downs, unlike the Elevator that he wrote in, which got stuck for thirty minutes, and that's how we ended up meeting Rachel. Rachel was supposed to meet a different dude at that restaurant, but her plans and her feelings changed after spending a full half hour in a small, enclosed space with Tyler, kind of like a Stockholm syndrome thing.

Oh wait, what's the stock That's where you fall in love with the people holding you captive. Okay, so now we're saying she'd fall in love with the elevator in the set. Oh okay, it sounded romantic. But Tyler, the question that I have here is why is this girl so important that you felt like you needed to reach out to a radio station to get a hold of her? Like, I appreciate you doing it. Don't get me wrong. If it wasn't for people like you, we wouldn't have a

show but out to us for help. I really just felt like an amazing kinship with her, because like we just went to the ridiculous thing of being stuck in the vader of all places, and then like it really felt like kissing it. Like it's just it's meant to be. Like, Tyler, do you feel like you're trying to force the universe's hands? Am I having us help out? No? I think it's not really forcing so much. It's just like let's take a chance. Let's do that guiding the universe. The worst case,

at least you'll get some closure on it, right, that's true? Yeah, And why are you not excited about this? I just if this turns out Tyler, where you like push the emergency button when you saw this cute girl get all the thing, it turns out to be this, I'm gonna be really upset, but upset honestly. And we pushed every single button trying to make this thing move. So even if I had accidentally done that, we would have pushed it back. Okay, Yeah, I guess. I just hope it's

not your game. That was a plan to imprison women and elevator for me, it could be a good trip from But okay, we're gonna call Rachel. We'll see what she has to say. You ready, that'd be great? All right, here we go. Hello? Is this Rachel? Yep? This is Rachel. Hey, Rachel, how are you doing? This is Brooke and Jeffrey in the Morning the Radio Show. Um, I'm sorry sorry, can you say that again? Yeah? He was mumbling through his hands. Yeah, it was really scratching my face as I said that.

That's probably not great, as a radio host. But right now. Yeah, yeah, hey, Rachel, you get stuck in any elevators recently? Oh? Wow, Um, is that what you're calling about. Yeah, we're actually calling because one of our listeners said that he got trapped in an elevator with you and he loved it. Didn't say it like that. His name's Tyler. Um, okay, okay, I'm excited. We I mean, obviously I spent some time together. What did you think of, Tyler? Yeah, that's what we're

kind of doing here. We're doing something called a second day at Update. We were trying to help Tyler figure out what's going on in his dating life with you. Well, it wasn't a date. I was stuck in there with him. Yeah. Yeah, is that not how most of your dates go? That was a joke, Rachel. I'm planning. I have to explain myself a lot. I mean, you guys did go get drinks after being stuck in the elevator for a half hour or so. I don't know. Tyler kind of read

that as maybe you were interested. I mean, I just I'm not really sure what to say. I like, he was nice and everything, and yeah, I mean it was good to have a drink after being stuck an elevator. Okay, so you didn't never have any like romantic feelings towards him at all. Well, so we were at the bar and we got to talking, and when we were in the elevator, like I thought that he looked familiar, but didn't have any idea like if I knew him or anything.

But then, like when we were at the bar, we started talking and we started to tell like what we do and stuff, and then I realized that he's a college professor. Okay, okay, Yeah, so I realized that I was actually in his class like more than a decade ago. It was probably like twelve or like maybe thirteen years ago. Whoa, wow, Yeah, what's wrong with that? Was he just a really bad professor? And you're like, I can't listen to him drone on

any longer? Or it's weird because he was like the old professor when she regular people don't have the instinct to just sleep with everybody. That's I never. I never hooked up with any of my professors, but my husband may have. So you're not getting his own I don't know. I mean, it's just like, is it the age difference for you then yeah, I mean it, and I just like, you know, I just feel like it's kind of weird good.

I mean, he probably doesn't even recognize me. It was like a really big school and he probably had so many students. You don't think that he knew that you were in his class too. Probably not, I hope not. I mean he wasn't acting like I mean so like if you recognized me, he would have said yeah, because it's not like it's his her kindergarten teacher, you know what I mean, she was a grown adult and he's he wasn't hitting on her while she was in class, obviously,

like if he had. Was he creepy when you were in college? I mean no, No, he was just like normal, but like a teacher, just a normal forty year old lusting over a nineteen year old. And he was not as like the hot professor or like the terrible one. And he could have been an adjunct professor. I mean, like, how much older do you think he is? In you? He probably like maybe more than twenty years older than me. Oh that's a big gap. I was I was going

like under ten. Let's see, let's see who's the closest with their guesses because Tyler's actually on the line and can answer that for us. Tyler, how much older are you? I honestly have no idea, Tyler. So there he is. He's been listening this whole time. Wow. So uh yeah, I'm sorry to that. I haven't been in touch. I just when I realized that, I was just like, I just don't know if this is a good idea. Oh I bet your I would be so embarrassed right now.

I'm sorry, Tyler, why is it not a good hold on? Tyler? Did you recognize her from your day's teaching? I didn't. I mean I talked to fairly large classrooms, so it's really like unless the person was somebody that gott into a lot of trouble with me or came to my office a lot. Yeah, well I didn't it first either.

It was only like afterwards that we were like at the bar that I was like, when we started talking, you started talking about that you were a professor, and then I just started to put two and two together, and then I just I was planning to like tell you what happened, and then I just haven't had the nerve and I just I feel awful. I'm sorry. I mean, look, we are two adults now at not. I'm not your professor, you're not my student, um all, honestly, I mean you're

very pretty. I'm quite cute. I hear so, I mean together, come on, Wow, are you blushing right now? Rachel? I hear that. I know, he puts the D. Huh were you attracted to him at all, Rachel? Before you realize he was your old professor? I mean yeah, I definitely feel like we had chemistry the elevator And like, I mean, is it normal to like date someone who needs to

be your professor? Like, I just feel like that's something I should I'm like not supposed to do or something I wouldn't date my high school teachers, right, but your college professor once you're in your thirties, okay, talk to me. Then you're really asking the wrong group of people what's normal to do. More importantly, who cares what's normal? Like is boring? I mean what about what about your friends, Rachel?

What would they say, the ones that you went to college with, if you told them, hey, I'm dating professor Tyler. I definitely think that they would like scream and really surprised. Well, is it like a ya scream or like an e scream A. I don't know. That's if you were happy, your friends would be excited for you. I'm just saying that there are a lot of benefits to dating an older guy. I mean, especially when there's this older guy

who thinks you look amazing in that green dress. Yet oh he has compliments too and remembers when wearing which is a testament to his memory. Has it gone yet? Do we have gift cards for after our meetings in Tyler's office, Because if we do, I would love to send you one of those gift cards, Rachel, and pay

for pay for another date for you and Tyler. Um, I would love to take you out for a fantastic romantic dinner where I will treat you're right and just let you know exactly what I see in you and how much I would love to spend time with you. Would love that, serious, Rachel? What do you think? Um? I think that sounds awesome, dude. A plus, I don't know. We just passed okay, no teachers, we need an official yes from you, Rachel. Is that a yes? Yes? That's yes? Yes? Well,

congratulations Tyler, you got yourself another day. Thank you, Gay extra curricular activity. Yeah, we are now officially the dirtiest morning show. You have a teacher that you've been crushing on, you will hook it up. Broken Jeffrey in the Morning, Broke and Jeffrey in the Morning.
