Five Rooking Jewels. Second date Update. Whenever somebody claims that they're sick and they can't go on a date with you, that's when you show up to their house to make sure. You have to make sure that they're not faking it. And that's exactly what Andrea did. Who's on the phone to do a second date update right now? She called the dude out for being sick, and now he's not calling her back. But apparently it worked out better than what it sounds like. I'm saying, Andrea, what's up? How
are you? Hey? Juwel hey, Brooke, Harry, y'all good. So why don't you tell us a little bit about the guy that you want to call today? What's his name? His name is Mike? Mike okay, and how did you meet Mike? We work in separate places. We were just at the same bar for an office happy hour, and you thought maybe you could help merge companies a little merger. Huh maybe I was I was thinking more. You know, he could just do a feature on our next pay So what do you like about this guy? He had
a really sweet personality. I mean, he was just he was really smooth. He Uh, I went to order my drink at the bar and he just he's like split up next to me. He's like, after I said my drink, he told me his drink and he's like, oh and put them together. All okay, So I just it was really sweet. Oh he might put him on the same tap. I thought you meant he wanted you to mix drinks. I was like, that's weird. A merger, right, So anyway, he took care of your drinks. It seemed like a
nice guy. Yeah, yeah, it seemed like a really nice guy. I mean we started talking and he's got really popping blue eyes. Total sucker for that. And by the end of the night he asked me out. Okay, so in your email you mentioned something about him getting sick, so you needed to go over to his place. Okay. So the day of the date he texted me and he had to cancel because he said he was sick. Well that sucks. Yeah, you know, I felt bad. I mean,
I'm a compassionate person, I'm nice. So I offer to come over to his place as a care package, and he agreed. Oh oh, well, that's really thoughtful of you, especially for someone you haven't even actually gone out on a date. With yet. Well, I did have a little bit of a double motive. I mean, I've I've been burned on a first date before, so I just wanted to make sure he was actually sick. Yeah, I mean I wanted to see if he was actually telling the truth.
What happened when you show it up? Um? I knocked on the door and he opened it. He was he was actually sick. I mean, yeah, he looked, he looked terrible. That's what you want to hear from somebody who's interested in you. Man, you look terrible. Yeah, he looked. He looked worse than terrible. So he wasn't lying to you? Then it was? It was bad, definitely not lying, probably actually kind of underplaying. And how long did you hang out with him in his house while he was sick? Um?
You know, I offered to stay as long as you liked him, and he seemed to really, you know, appreciate the care package. So what was in the package? Lube? What? No for the throat? Yeah? Yeah, I brought him some soup, some crackers, a little bit of candy, unique pretty pretty kosher stuff, the normal get well stuff. Not Maybe that's where you went wrong. Maybe he's one of those guys that likes a good lube to solve his cough. All right, Well, I will keep that in mind next time he's sick.
Nothing subes a wet cough like some lube. So how did things end with him? It actually ended a little bit uncomfortable. Really, why? Yeah, so we seem to be having a good time. You know. I asked her to stay as long as he would like. I thought maybe he'd like the company. Um, all of a sudden, he kind of abruptly went, well I should rest, and you know, really awkwardly, just like put on my shoes and said bye. I mean okay, after you just brought him a get
well package. Yeah, so he just kind of killed and I'm just like you're talking. He's like, I need to rest, get out. It wasn't that rude, but he did motion towards the door, like you need to leave. Wow. Okay. Did you feel like he was angry or he was just uncomfortable because he was sick? Kind of afford to tell. I mean, he was sick, so I'm just hoping he was in a bad mood. And have you talked to him since then? No, he hasn't texted, He hasn't called. I mean, not even like a thank you for the
care package. Nothing. So he's either blowing me off or his sickness got worse and now he's dead. At least you could take some solace in that, Like maybe it was a really bad cold and that's the reason he's not calling you back, not because he did something wrong. Yeah maybe. I mean, I'm just as confused as you are. I mean, he asked me out right, and I choked himself the care package, and now I haven't heard from him.
Oh no, okay, so weird. All right, Well we'll play a song, come back, call him and get your second date update. Okay, okay, all right, hang on brooking jubil in the morning date. Today's second date update is less of a second date update and more of a welfare check. Just called to see if this dude is still alive. If you're just joining us. Andrea is on the phone and she wants us to call a guy named Mike today.
They met at office happy hour, and then when they scheduled their date, he told her that he was sick and he couldn't meet up. Then she tested him and said, oh well, how about I bring you a care package? Because she thought one that he might have been lying, and two it would be a nice gesture, and he actually said yes. She brought over the care package and he was really sick. They hung out for a little while and eventually he said, hey, I need to get some rest. You need to go, and that's the last
that she's heard from him. So, Andrew, if I call this number and somebody answers and asks me if I'm next of Ken, should I hang up then? Or oh my god, yes, please just hang out then like it ever happened. Okay, do you I mean, do you feel pretty foolish that you basically accused him in your mind of lying and then you were wrong? Um? Yeah, I
mean I was definitely surprised he was actually sick. But I mean there's no reason to not call me back, you know, for another date, yeah, or at least just to say thank you, because he didn't even thank you for the care pact exactly. I'm just really confused. Okay, Well, I'm gonna dial his phone ub right now and see if we can get your answer. Okay, Okay, here we're going. Hello, can I speak to Mike please? This is Mike. Oh good, you're feeling better. I've been so worried about you, Mike,
in this cold you had. Who is this? Oh? This is Jewil from Brook and Jewel in the Morning. How are you doing? Um? I'm okay. What's broken? Jubil in the Morning. It's a good question. I don't really know, but according to most people, it's a radio show. Yeah, okay, and we're calling you today because we got an email about you from one of our listeners. Sorry, what are you talking about? Well, we do a segment on our show.
It's called the second Date Update. It's where if you go out on a date with somebody and then end up not calling them after they email us to see if we can get you on the phone and find out what happened. Technically, you didn't really go on a date with this person, but they're still wondering why you aren't calling them back. Okay, that sounds pretty messed up. But her name is Andrea. Okay, okay, you remember Andrew. She brought you a care package when you were sick.
I guess, yeah, I guess you could say that. What do you mean? I guess you could say that wasn't it filled with things to make you feel better? When you're sick. Yeah, it was technically, I don't know. If somebody says I want to make you a care package, you kind of expect a bit of care in that package. And she came over and it was literally a paper grocery bag with can soup in it and like salting crackers and like candy, but not even real brand name candy.
Like what a care package? No, I'm just saying that, you know, it's clear that she said I want to bring you a care package and then stopped at the store and literally grabbed the first thing she saw it. And that's what a care package is. She stopped by the store, I got you things you needed. Yeah, but if you're going to go out of your way to do a thing for a person, I'm just saying, you know, either put some thought in it or wait till our first date. I don't even know this girl. And this
is the first impression. For the second impression that I'm getting is like, here's some stuff that I like, I have in my house. Is that why you're not calling her back because of the little effort she put into a care package for you? Well, no, it's not just that that. I mean that was disappointing to say the least. But then the thing is, like the energy was so weird.
So I'm sick, right, and she comes over and, you know, instead of kind of like hanging out and maybe getting to know me, like the first question, she's asking really specific questions about how sick I am. And she asked me if I get sick often, and like what my symptoms were, and like it felt kind of I felt like I was on trial a bit, like or that you're at the doctor, yeah, or that I was at the doctor, but neither of us are doctors, so I don't I didn't know what her angle was, you know, like,
how paranoid are you? What are you testing me? You want to see if my genetics are good? I don't get sick that often twice a year, Thank you very much. That's kind of what it felt like. But did you I mean, it could have been that she was nervous and it's the first time you guys have hung out
without alcohol and she didn't know what else to talk about. Well, it just seemed to me that she didn't totally believe that I was sick, Like I had to answer all these questions about how I was sick and how sick I really was, and I felt like they kept going on. If it was one or two questions, that would be one thing. But at a certain point I was like, do you want a doctor's note? He should have supplied
her with one, I guess so. So it was her careless package, not a care package, and her constant grilling you about being sick that made you not want to call her again. Oh well, I just yeah, I gotta I gotta kind of possessive sense about her, and I'm not into that. You know, I don't get that sense about her at all. And she's actually on the other line listening and wants to talk to you, so we could ask her if she's possessive like that. Wait, she's
been listening to this whole thing. Yeah, Andrea, Hi, how are you doing? Oh my god, I'm I'm so sorry. I didn't know you were listening at all. Um. Yeah, I did hear everything, Mike, and it's really interesting to hear your take on how things happened. Um well, I just you should know. That's how I felt at the time. And I was called by a radio show, which apparently you send an email to, which doesn't help my general
feeling about the whole thing. I mean, I was just really confused because it seems like, you know, I thought I had, you know, reached out and did a really nice thing for you, but apparently it didn't quite come off as kindly as it was intended. Well, your intentions weren't very clear to me, you know, And if you do this in the future, maybe put a little more thought into that so it won't seem like you just showed up with a bag in order to get into
the door and find out some information. Wow. I mean, when you've been lied to once, sometimes you're going to see how many liars are out there. Okay, So you were testing me, so I was right. I just wanted to see if you were all right and make sure you know there wasn't any red flags, you know, immediately
up front. I mean, if you like me and we haven't even gone on our first date, Yeah, our first date, So probably best not to take the time when I'm sick to grill me and find out whether I've killed anybody. But Mike, I mean, you've got to listen to her explanation right now, because it does kind of make sense. Yeah, it makes sense to a paranoid person. She's been burned a bunch, Mike, give her like a little bit of a break. I mean, you're the jerk that's complaining about
the quality of care packages over here. She brought me cam soup. I could go get canned soup from the store. That's not care I didn't know if you were lying. I mean, if you're a liar, like you only get caned soup, like I'm not going to pull out like my mom's homemade recipe like that takes four hours to make for a little liar, I just didn't get a good first impression. So if I got to stick around for the good soup, I don't know if that's worth it. Well,
let's see if it's worth it. Mike, would you like to go out on a second date with Andrea? We will pay for it. Well, we'll buy the ingredients for the soup that you can make. I can confidently say no, Yeah, this is already way too nuts for me. Okay, okay. Well, knowing that, then I suppose would also like to not go out because apparently, no, Andrew, you can't do that. You can't go back and say no. I'm saying no, Yeah, yes,
I can. I am saying no right now. Wow. Okay, Mike, you hear that you could have had a date, but now you don't get one because Andrea decided no, that's fine, that's just fine with me. Did you hear me, Mike? I said no, yes, all right. Sorry you couldn't get you guys to go out again, but at least you both agree that Andreas said no. Texted at seven eighty five to nine two says that guy's a pretentious douche with like a lot of osa talking about today's second
date update if you missed it. Andrea wanted to call this dude named Mike. He got sick when they were supposed to go on their dates, so she put him to the test and was like, well, I'll bring you a care package, and he accepted because he was actually sick. She really wanted to see if he was lying to her,
and he wasn't. He was sick, but the reason that he wasn't calling her back was because he didn't like the care package that she brought over because it contained regular, average canned soup and some candy that wasn't even like special candy. Yeah, own candy. Ridiculous, So he wasn't into it because of that, and then she got upset and
at the end turned it around on him. So we asked if they want to go on a second date, update a second date like we always do, and he said no, but then she said no, you don't get to say no. I'm saying no. No. I really think if we back it up, this weirdly wouldn't have worked out anyway because first date, and she's already like a private detective thinking he's like lying about being sick, and that was his point too. He could tell that she was testing him to see if he was actually sick,
so he wasn't into it. But she says, no, that's all that's the most important part. Can't fire me. I quit. Remember if you want to do a second date, update off, you do his email the show and we will call the person who didn't call you back.
