kind of horror like that. You know what, that's negative thinking. Being a superhero is negative, Thicket, It's so self involved. We need to change our attitude to a more positive outlook. Okay, instead of just saving other people's lives, doing the bare minimum, we need to actually make them better and improve their love lives. You know what I'm saying. Haven't been trying

Is that what you're saying, You're I'm trying to think positive and do more than the bare minimum for these people like Ivan. I've got a lot of baby name

suggestions for your future children. But before we get to that, tell us about the name of the woman that you would like us to call today and have kids with. H Yeah, that's a whole lot to comprehend there. Her name is Bridget. That's a gorgeous name that sounds like the name someone that it's your soul mate. I don't know what Jeffrey's smoking today or whatever, but you got to hit this love pipe. I'm telling you. Let's go back to Bridget. Sorry, tell us more about Bridget. How

did you meet? We met on a dating app. Okay, sounds like Mary. So what what do you guys do on your date? So we messaged a little bit on the app, went out for dinner, got some ramen. Well, boy is a good choice, That's what I'm saying. It's a little bit of a messy first date, but maybe Messi's good character. Remember he's on that positive trade right now. Messi Boy, what was dinner? Like I thought dinner was great, and then we actually went out for a walk afterwards.

That's always a walk is good, but a stroll is better. It's a romantic stroll. Just is what you find in the ram co agree the same thing. It's the same. Um I haven't tell us of like a highlight, you know, like, yeah, you went to dinner and you went on a walk,

but like, where was the connection at. I took her to this old book store and we kind of talked about our favorite books that we loved while we were growing up, and we left little post it notes in the parts of the books that we particularly liked, and we wrote down why we liked him and what drew us to the books, so that when people are going to come in and look at these books, they're going to see these little messages from previous readers of the book.

That's really cute. So, I mean, that's something I would ever do. But Alexis doesn't like to read a lot. But I think that's awesome. So I mean, is that something you planned ahead, like you brought the post notes with you? Oh yeah, yeah, that was a big one that I came up with right before the date. I really liked it. What did Bridget think about the post it note idea? I mean, she seemed really into it. We stayed at this bookshop for like an hour doing this.

Oh my god, that's a lot of going through books. Yeah, and the employee now I have to take all these posts. I don't know how did the rest of the date go. I mean, that was just the end of it there. I thought it ended well. I was like, hey, we should do this again sometime. She agreed to it, and then we said our goodbye, and I just didn't hear back from her. And I've been texting her, and I even texted her right before I, you know, reached out to you guys. I asked her why she hadn't been

getting back to me, and did she respond? She texted back one word reply, Oh oh no, what was it? It was just seatbelts? Seat belts? That did that mean? Did that mean anything to you? Your guess is as good as mine. I have no idea what that meant. Did you wear seat belts in the car when you drove her home? Maybe you didn't wear one and she didn't feel safe that you weren't. To be honest, I don't even remember if I was wearing one. I thought I was maybe I don't really keep track of how

many times I'm wearing a seatbelt while driving. That shouldn't be a deal breaker. Was one of the books that you read about seat belts how to guide? No, I don't remember if any of the books were about seat belts. And that's what I said to her. I was like, seatbelt, what does that mean? And no response. Nothing O seat belt mystery on our hand, and you've come up with no theories. And again that's why I'm reaching out to you, guys. This is kind of out of character for me to just,

you know, put myself out there like that. Well, we're gonna play a song, we'll come back. We'll call Bridget for you, and we'll give her the code word seat belt and we'll see what she says when we do your second date update right after this. Okay, thanks a lot, I appreciate it. Got hold on it. Ivan, I've been thinking about future baby names for when this whole second date thing works out down. No, I'm looking ahead. This is gonna work. And Ivan, what do you think about

our buckle? Like? Buckle like? Okay, that's cute, It's okay. Oh, really, thanks, Brooklyn. Okay, what about what about click? Be again like a robot? No, it's like click like a seatbelt. Yeah, two pieces of them. It's cute. Yeah, it's the one thing that ties the two of them together is the word seat belt. Yes,

but again, I kind of just want that second date. Yeah, I'm just saying, you know, maybe it doesn't sound amazing right now, but when I'm officiating your wedding on June twenty third next year, I just want you to think of those names. He is not going to want us to make this call because you're being psycho, because I believe in love too hard exactly, because well, you're just tuning in for the second date update. Ivan took a

woman named Bridget out to dinner. Afterwards, they took a stroll visited a bookstore where they spent an hour leaving sticky notes in old books like a romantic first date book report, very passionate stuff. It's like the cliff Notes of dating. Afterwards, Bridget wasn't getting back to him, so Ivan just texted her, why are you avoiding me? And she actually was fonded to that, with one thing, saying

seat belt. He's not really sure what that means, but we're gonna try and find out when we call her in the second date up that you ready to do this, Ivan, Let's do it. God, I hope we can figure this out for you, because it does sound like a really romantic date. Yeah. Yeah it was. It was a great date. I really liked her. But beyond all that, I'm kind of just thrown off by this whole seat belt thing. I almost want to find out what the whole seat belt thing was, more so than the date. Hopefully we

could accomplish both. Yeah, a new dating term that we don't know yet, and it's a good like breadcrumbing or ghost. Yeah. Okay, what googled this? Let's find out. I'm going to dial the number right now. Ready, let's do it. Okay, here we go. Hello, Hi, can I speak to Bridget please? Yeah? This is Bridget. Who's hi? Bridget? My name is Jeffrey from the radio show Brook and Jeffrey in the Morning. How are you doing fine? How? I'm sorry? How did

you get my number? Well, we actually got your number from somebody that you went on a date with recently, because we're doing something called a second date. Update. Wait, somebody I went on a date with gave you my number. That's kind of creepy. Yeah, okay, well we get to that quickly. I mean, true, he did it for a good reason, because he really enjoyed his time with you, and now he's wondering why you're not getting back to him. His name's Ivan. Wow, Okay, okay, he sounds like a

really nice guy. Sure, yeah, I mean and he told us a little bit about the things that you did together. He mentioned that you guys went and got ramen, you went to a bookstore, took a stroll, and then after the date he did say that you were avoiding him a little bit, and he asked you why, and you texted him one word seat belt. Actually that's two words. But yeah, we thought that might be the case. But that what Ivan said to us. Maybe that's a whole

other debate too. Maybe in Europe it's different, a little different. Let's forget the second date update and let's break down the word seat belt for the next ten minutes. Bridget. The thing is is he has no idea what you're talking about, but it is a total mystery to him. Wow, you know what, it's actually kind of funny that he still doesn't get it. Okay, it should I mean you're saying it should be that obvious. Yeah, like it should

be painfully obvious. Oh well it hasn't been. Maybe if you just told us, we could pass along the information to ivan. Yeah, that's fine. So he picked me up and we're driving, and you know how like if you don't buckle your seat belt, like that really annoying alarm just keeps going off, thing like buckle up, buckle up. Yeah yeah, yeah, mine's mine, just a dinging noise. But I don't know if you're called talks cars being I

know what it's saying to you. Buckle up, buckle up, buckle up, even though it's ding Yeah, you want the answer or not? Yeah, sorry, rigid apologize. I don't know if he was just like really nervous on the first date or what, but he was completely oblivious to the fact that it kept going off, and like I tried to bring it up. I didn't want I don't know, it's the first date. It's weird, but I trying to be like, you know, hey, do you hear that sound?

And he like, oh yeah, there's police sirens, Like how much more? And like this, you know, it's a cute idea, like we put notes in the books, but we're finding these children's books and like writing notes for him. Um, it's what he had to do, Like he brought post it and anyways, he had to ask me how to spell words to write from the note. Okay, no one judge bad spellers. Get out of here. What's the word? Yeah?

They were easy words, like not more than like six letters. Yeah, but like if you're talking received, I couldn't spell it to save my life. Okay, I before E except after sea. Yeah, exactly is a thing. Yeah, it is, but it's not always true. English is very tricky. But if you're going to a bookstore, shouldn't you be good at words? No? Yeah, I read constantly. I'm a terrible speller. Well, okay, I guess everybody is allowed to have their own personal dating

deal breakers. I'm looking for a guy who's an intellectual, who's smart, who can keep up with me, And I just felt like he was a little like sweet guy but a space cadet. I think you didn't give him enough a chance. I'm sticking up for the bad speller and the partially deaf person. Yeah, I don't know how else could you not hear the dinging. I mean it is a good point. You can go on a date

with him. No, I don't want to. I want you to go on a date with him because I think he really likes you and he thinks that you guys had a connection. Let's see if that's still true after all that was said, because I need to tell you, Bridget, Ivan's been on the other line listening and he heard everything that you just said. Are you kidding? If he's paying attention, I don't know, Ivan, you're still there? Wait nope, yeah, I'm here. I'm kind I'm kind of shocked that that

sounds really petty everything I just heard. Okay, but before you how do you spell petty? You spell it, Bridget, That's how you spell it. I just didn't have this kind of a time, and I'm sorry that we didn't have the same experience. Well then why didn't you say that? Why just be all cryptic with just the seat belt? Which, by the way, are you my driving instructor? Like? Are you setting everybody you date by their driving skills? You know, if you're not, if you're not smart enough to use

protection in the car. It just makes me nervous about everything. Else. Oh, it's a bold statement about life. Wow. Okay, if you're that concerned about protection, why didn't you tell me to put on my seatbelt? You know, I didn't want to be rude. You're an adult, and I thought you can make your own decisions, so I tried to hint at it and tell you, and you were completely Oblivio. Okay, So what I forgot to put my z bel? I'm sorry, I guess, But Jesus, that just sounds a little much

to me. I mean, okay, I mean I think you guys, obviously, Ivan you have kind of hurt feelings right now. And Bridget you didn't know it was on the phone, So it's not your fault for just being honest, like a little brutally honest. Yeah, but like, didn't you? I mean it sounded like you guys connected in some ways, Like he put a lot of effort and thought into creating a romantic date for you. Yeah, for sure. And I think if you will find like a kindergarten teacher or something,

it's like a sweet girl I think she would love. Now, now you're insulting kindergarten teachers. I'm saying somebody who's sweet and patient and can deal with you. Know, well, I don't know anybody who can pass your standards them, because my gosh, it sounds like you're looking for I don't know a robot hard and where the seat belt and is asking for a lot there, Bridget. I think you're just not my person. Dan. What huh? Dang? Okay? Yeah,

you hear how annoying it is? What are you dinging? Dan? Dan? Dan? Is how you're getting back here? I think it's a diss or, maybe ye Dan, okay, Or maybe maybe it's the studio telling me that this is the time for me to ask, would you guys like to would you look guys like to go out on another date? Bridget? We'll pay for it. No, you can save their money. Dan. Oh my god, I'm standing up for you. Stop dinging. I don't know. I feel like he's kind of funny, though.

I mean, did you hear what she just said or did you miss it? I couldn't hear anything she said. All I heard was the digging Wow. Okay, yeah, okay, yes she said no to a second date. I'm sorry, man, too bad. Just want to let you guys know I passed my driver's test with a perfect score, so I don't know what she's ok. The spelling test, though, is a different story. I think moving ninety two point five
