Need Lasic trust the experienced team at the Lasic Center at Evergreen Ice Center. No glasses, no contacts, no limits. What will you do? Lasik at Evergreen dot com Rooking Jewels. Second date update. For today's second date update, Ember is on the phone and she sent us an email saying that she looked past a deal breaker because she liked the dude that she went out with so much, but now he's not calling her back. Oh, proof that you

shouldn't look past your deal breakers. Like my deal breaker if I go out with a woman and she has like a family, like a healthy family, dynamic deal breaker for Mesh wants functional families and no daddy is huge, huge red flag from Ember said she looked past the deal breaker. We'll find out what that is in the second But first, Ember, how are you doing. I'm I mean, I'm good. I'm just on the edge of my seat waiting to find out maybe what happened with this date.

But I'm good. I'm doing good. Well, slide all the way back into your seat because sometimes these phone calls can take a long time. Okay, I'll the last We'll try. Okay, Yeah, tell us a little bit about your date. So I met the guy on a dating app. M. I kind of just recently started doing the dating app thing. I wasn't meaning guys as naturally anymore. So okay, I always think it's funny when people sound like so embarrassed by that. I'm but the majority of people do it. It's a

normal thing. Yeah, you know. I have friends to do it, and they've met guys. They're really into that way, so I thought I might as well try. Okay, So the guy's name on the app is Sparky. I thought it was kind of cute Ember and sparky like Emma. I mean, think of all the flame play on words you could have at your wedding if you guys got married. I like how you're picking guys online too, Like, his name sounds cute. Well, all about the word play? Why? Yeah,

so you matched with the guy based on name alone. Well, not completely, but it was kind of what caught my attention intially. Right, your email said that you looked past the deal breaker. Why was the date so good that you were able to look past whatever your deal breaker is? Well, let me call you like the rundown of date first? So we went for a swing dance lessons fo Yeah, he decided on that, and I thought that was kind of cool, and that's already a great idea. I already

liked sparky. Way to go sparky, and that could go really poorly if you meet some dude online he's like, hey, I want to go swinging with you. It's you know, there's two things that could happen from that. And it seems like you got the best result. Yeah, we're not. Depending on your preference, I don't know. No, I definitely got the result I wanted with the swing daping. So

how are the classes. Well, we both weren't that adept at it, but he was trying really hard to get the stuff down and I thought it was really cute that he was putting such an effort for us. Right, so you're having fun. Yeah, we had a good time, and after that we went to get dinner, and that's when the deal breaker issue came up. I called him Sparky and he was like, well, actually that's not my real name, and you're like, yeah, no kidding. Yeah, I

didn't expect that. So he was like, actually, my real name is Ryan, and okay, perfectly good name, but unfortunately my ex's name is Brian. Oh a little too similar for you. Yeah, we ended on real bad terms. So wait, that's your deal breaker, is that you won't date anyone

with the name similar to Brian. Well, I didn't realize it was a deal breaker until that came up, and then, you know, it just kind of reminds me of Brian, like it's only one letter off, like a confused and like, you know, make jokes about it, and I don't want to think about that path, you know. So wait, did you tell him that after he said that his name was Ryan? Well, no, because I had a good time and I liked the guy, and I didn't want to be a weirdo own be like, oh, well, my X

had a very similar name. So so you know, and I hope that's okay with you. Okay, good, I'm glad I did not say that. Yeah, yeah, and go into great detail about how bad your breakup was with a lot of people like hearing that on a first date. So it's probably good you didn't go that route. Yeah. I didn't want to go into detail or even bring up any x ya. Obviously that's not cool, so I was willing to overlook it. So how did the day end?

After the name thing, he gave me a hug, like I totally forgot about the Ryan Brian thing for the rest of the time we were together. I real issues when it goes. Yeah, when he said his name, you had like a look at disgust, and he actually went beast right. My faith tends to give away my emotions sometimes more than I'd like it too. So maybe it was taking a little too long to order and you stood up and you're like, you never know what you

want when we get here. You're always changing your mind, Brian, this is another problem with you, right, Maybe a PCSD kicked in. Okay, well we'll find out. We'll play a song, come back, and then call him and get your second date update. Okay, okay, thank you, all right, hang up brooking jubil in the morning dates. You know, deal breakers are kind of a funny subject when you talk about

dating Brook, Do you have any deal breakers? No? I was always pretty hoping I wouldn't I wouldn't sleep with you. I wouldn't sleep with you. That's a deal breaker. Yeah. I dated guys with missing front teeth once that lived in their car. I mean, hey, I was willing to look past really anything. Literally, Yeah, don't very accepting would I wouldn't say it's a good thing, but it was

my thing. People tend to be a little bit more particular, like Ember, who's on the phone for a second date update right now, and she was willing to look past a dealbreaker to try to get another date with the dude we're about to call. Just to remind everybody, Ember went out with a guy named Sparky, that's his nickname. She didn't know that his real name is actually Ryan and it's really close to her ex boyfriend's name, Brian,

and that was the deal breaker. She felt really uncomfortable about that, but she was still like, whatever, I'm gonna still try to go out with this guy. And now he's not calling her back. Ember, when we were talking earlier, I didn't hear what do you like so much about Ryan? Like? Why were you willing to look past this dealbreaker? We just gone along. He seemed smart, We had great conversation, and I just thought there was a spark, like I don't know what to say. You were giddy, is what

you were saying. I liked him, like I was into it until he reminded you of your ex and then but it was just the name, nothing beyond that. Well, we'll give him a call right now and see if we can figure out why he's not calling you back. Here we go, Hello him, I speak to Ryan. Uh. This is Ryan Ryan. How are you man? My name is jew Bil from a radio show called Brook and Jewel in the Morning. What is that the radio show Brook and Jewil in the Morning. It's the show where

we do fun and wacky calls. I don't know you've heard it before. Oh yeah, yeah, I guess I've heard of you guys. Okay, cool. Have you heard any of the fun and wacky calls we do, because that's kind of what we're known for, fun and wacky calls. So this is one of them. Oh that sounds so lame when you describe it, like, who knows? Maybe both? What's going on? I don't really get why everyone's laughing. I can. I can understand that it probably makes no sense to

you at all. Um, Well, we do a segment on our show called the Second Date Update, and you went out on a date with a woman named Ember. Yeah yeah, yeah. Ember. Ember emailed us because she said she'd like going out with you, but she hasn't heard back. So she's wondering if she did something wrong. I don't know if I should talk about that. Can you at least tell us whether or not you had a good time on your date with Ember? I mean that's not really that personal. Um. Yeah,

I guess we had no kay time. Oh what a cell? Yeah that sounds like you were miserable the entire day. I wasn't miserable. I guess I was just kind of confused. Okay, Well, here's the thing. Ember emailed us because she's willing to hear whatever you have to say. She wants to know. She said that she wants to know the reason. Yeah, she's actually the one that's confused. She thought you guys had a fantastic time. So can you just tell us what you were confused about? It's not a barrassing about you.

Um okay, I I mean I show up and she's all orange orange, like the color Yeah, like color like a bad spray tan or something. I mean, amongst other things. Yeah, like her skin was orange, her hair was orange, and all her clothes were orange. Yeah. So wait, is that different from what her profile pick was on her dating account? Well, I mean she had like orange hair in her picture, but like I couldn't see her clothes, Like her clothes weren't orange, you know. Okay, but so she has orange hair,

and then she decided to wear orange on your date. Yeah, um, she wore a maniac. I don't even know how he felt safe. I mean, it's not that bad. It's just strange that like everything's orange, you know, the way literally orange, the color orange is the reason that you don't want to go out with her again. Yeah, And it wasn't just that she was wearing all orange. She ordered orange food for dinner. What what do you mean kind of orange food? I mean, like she ordered carrots. Like we

went out to dinner, she ordered carrots. Okay, so she likes carrots. What else? Okay, well, okay, so she ordered carrots. Then she ordered butternut squashed soup. Yeah, that's very particular. And those are both like app that's not a meal. She ordered like two apps. That's not even you know, which is a crime in and of itself, like for god's sakes, Yeah, I mean it's here, She's going out of her way to range order orange food. Um. Interesting. Yeah,

and she never brought up her obsession with orange. No, she just just like went on like she was dressed like a normal person and like I didn't have orange hair and orange skin and acted normal. Are you curious at all? Why the orange? I mean yeah, like obviously I wanted to know, but like they couldn't ask her. It's like a rude thing to ask on a date.

It's like, why are you all orange? Yeah? I guess that is kind of rude, But I know how we can figure it out because she is actually on the other line listing and wants to talk to you right now. Wait what Yeah, probably on an orange phone. I'm not sure, but Ember, are you still there? Yeah? Hi, Ryan, what's up? Oh my god, I'm sorry. I had no idea you were there. Um well I am. So are you? Like, are you obsessed with orange? Or did it just happen to be a day where you wore an orange outfit

because it matched? I mean, I don't think I'm obsessed with orange. I like orange, I like to match. Sometimes I wear orange, sometimes I don't. I wanted to show my personality and my favorite colors orange. But like, why did you order Range food? Then? Like, did you do that on purpose? Were you trying to send a message? No? A message to who the other orange people? Like, I'm letting everybody in this restaurant now that I'm down for

the orange. I mean, you just kind of went on like you're dressed like a normal person, but you're not. You're an orange person. I'm not an orange person. I like the color orange. I thought it looked good on me, and yeah, orange is one of my favorite colors. Why is that a problem? Sorry, it's just like overwhelming. I showed up and like, you're all orange, and it just took me by surprise. Seriously, your deal breaker thought I won't launch because I had a deal breaker too, and

I looked past mine. What was your deal breaker? It was your name. I just got a bad relationship a little while ago. Some named Brian. So it's a little close to home, the whole Ryan thing. Okay, well that's like one little thing. Like your whole life is orange. That's different. My whole life is not orange. But I looked past my deal breaker. That's the point. And what I'm trying to say. You need to be able to look past the orange thing. I'm trying. I don't know.

I don't know what the extent of your orangeness is. I don't understand this argument, Like we're arguing about a color, literally, the color of my outfit, the color of the food, like whatever. I mean, I thought we had a good time. Didn't you have a good times? I guess I did. But I don't know if I can like look past this. What are you being serious? Ryan? Like what if she was wearing all black? I mean that's something people do all the time, or all blue or all red. Yeah, well,

you know, like purple's my favorite color. But you don't see me wearing all purple and like ordering eggplants, you know. I guess it's just the fact that, like she never talked about it, and I felt like I couldn't ask about it, and like it was all I could think about. It's just like why she was all orange? You know. So I'm telling you now it was honestly just a coincidence that it all happened that way. I just like

the color orange, not twenty four seven orange. It's just you happen to catch me on an orange day, I guess, Yeah, Bryan, you caught her on an orange day. Let's try and do a different color. Would you go out with Ember one more time for a second day. We'll pay for it. I just I don't know what if she didn't wear orange? Yeah, I mean that's a really simple solution. Yeah, I won't wear orange if you go out with me again. Like, wasn't I like a juicy, like hot orange at least?

I mean if you wear like a mix of colors, you know, like a normal like a diversity of colors. Yeah, that you have a diverse outfit, somber. You're willing to go through your closet and see if you have multiple colors to wear that night, so you're not wearing all of one color. You're sure you have that ability? Oh my god, I'm not colorblind. Okay, I definitely have that ability. So I'm putting myself out there. Would you please go out with me again? I think we could get past

this issue. Okay, yes, okay, yeah, I'll do it. Hey, aren't you glad? That worked out? Oh? Man, too soon? Broken Juwil in the morning,
