Second Date Update PODCAST: Ditched at the Movies

I know that I read I read your email. Why don't you tell us a little bit about the girl that you want to call today? Where'd you meet her? We met online? Um, the first time I've ever done this. Met at someone online and I don't normally date, so I was really nervous going in. Um, so you don't normally date at all? I know I haven't dated and sometimes so this is like kind of my way of getting back into it. Wow, okay, so this is the first date you've been on in a long time. What's

her name? Her name is Hallie Hallie like halle Berry. Yeah, I mean she's that gorgeous. Yeah, even when you met her in person, she turned out just as pretty as her online profile. That's what I was so nervous about, because I've heard horror stories from people about, you know, disastrous meet up. So I was shocked. She looked better than her picture. So you told us you haven't been on a date long time. You're not a very good conversationalist.

Was your date with this girl awkward? It wasn't awkward. I mean the time we had together, which was somewhat brief, was was I thought it was really nice brief. Okay, why was it brief? What did you guys do? Well? Um, we met at a bar and then we went after her to go see a movie, and about five minutes into the movie, she went to use the restroom and that was the end of our date essentially. Are you telling me that she did sho well? No, I mean

she got up to go to the restroom. I asked her if I could take her, and she said no, and she went up to the bathroom and I waited for five ten minutes went by like I'm still waiting, So after about twenty minutes, I went out into the into the hallway and I asked one of the ushers if they had seen a beautiful young lady going to the restroom and uh, okay, that could be creepy. First of all, did you explain to them that you were

like out on a date with her? I mean no, no, it was yeah, yeah, I think I think she knew. I think no, she knew. I was referring to the to my fate. Okay, you're not just standing outside the bathroom. Hey have you seen any beautiful young ladies go in there?

Because so cute? No, I am. After I talked to the usher, I went and waited outside of the bathroom for you know, thinking she'd come out, And as someone was going in, I asked her if she could check to see if if Hallie was in there, and I described her And when the girl came out, she said that no one was in the bathroom. So what did you do? Then? You just stood out there? You call her right? Then you just leave? Or do you go

back in the movie. Well, the first thing that came to my mind was that she must have had a family emergency or something. People you know, like I spent a little time with her, but she didn't come off as a type of person, you know, so I'm thinking something could have been really wrong. I think that that may be a little naive. Did she ever text you after and say, hey, sorry, I had to run there was a family emergency. No. I've reached out to her, but I haven't heard back. Why do you even want

to talk to her? I would be so pissed if I were. You still sound fine with it. I mean, I just can't picture her being the type to do something like that. Like our time was brief, but like we had a really nice conversation when we were in the bar, and she seemed really genuine and there wasn't like an awkwardness really, so I I just I don't know. I have a hard time believing it's that. So I'm

worried that something could have happened to her. Did you do anything while you guys were watching the movie, like try to make a move on her that made her uncomfortable? No, I mean she left five minutes into the movie, so there was no time for that. Even Okay, it sounds to me like she ditch you. Was there anything weird that happened in the bar before you guys went to the movies? No, I mean the bar was great. I

got there a little early. The pre game just because I haven't had a dating so long and my nerves sometimes gets it. So I wanted to be really relaxed, and I was, and we had like a really a good time, Like you weren't wasted or anything. You didn't go a little bit too far in the pre game. No, I had two drinks before she came, that's it. But there were shots one, one fifty one and were just all right. So you said you've tried to reach out to her. Look, I know that you think that she's

a nice person and wouldn't diet you. But if she had really had an emergency, I would think that she would have said something. You said that you reached out to her. How many times have you tried to get hold of her? I haven't spoken to her in ten days, but in ten days I've called her ten times. I called her. I called her every day. Are you leaving a message every time you call? Oh? Yeah, of course, I'm I'm worried about her. I'm telling you like this

just seems so out of character. So I really, I'm sure that something would have happened, and I wanted to, you know, I wanted to beave any assistance I could, you know, I wanted to see her again too. There's no way you could possibly know some Wood's character by having one drink at a bar and then spending five minutes in a movie theater with them. I talked to her at least three days before we met online, so it wasn't like this was our first time talking. We had.

Oh yeah, you're good, then you're perfect. What we're gonna do is we'll play a song, we'll come back, we'll call her and get your second date update. Okay, okay, thank you? All right, man, hold on brooking jubil in the morning. Second, if you're just tuning in for today's second date update, Curtis is on the phone with us.

He wants to call a girl named Hallie. Today. They met online, went to a bar shortly before they went to a movie, and then five minutes into the movie, his date said she had to go to the bathroom, and then she disappeared, and he hasn't heard a word from her since. Curtis, you on the phone. I'm here, all right, man, we're about to call her. You know what I think happened? Okay, Because you're saying maybe she had a family emergency or something and had to leave.

I think that maybe you should have waited longer at the movie theater, because maybe she went into another theater. I was actually watching that movie, probably looking for you, Like, oh my god, he ditched me. Do you really think that's what could have happened. No, I don't think that's what happened. I think she ditched you, Curtis. But we're going to call her now and find out. You guys

don't know her office. She's cool, she wouldn't do that. Okay, Well, we're going to call her right now and find out exactly what happened. Okay, Curtis, I'm worried about you. Are you going to be able to handle some bad news? Yeah, I'm gonna be fine. I'm telling you she's You're you're not giving her enough credit. All right, Curtis, I'm gonna doll the phone number right now. Let's see if we can get her on the phone. Okay, okay, all right, here we go. Hello, Hi, can I speak to Hallie? Please?

Who is this? This is Jewel from Brook and Jewel in the morning. I was looking for Hallie. Why do you want to speak with her? I just have a couple questions for her. Is this, Hallie. Why do you want to know? I have something interesting to talk to Hallie about. Do you know, Hallie something interesting to talk about? Yes, I'm calling from a morning radio show and I recently received an email about a girl named Halle and this is the phone number that I have for her. So

he received an email. Yes, do you know Hallie? First of all? Okay, fine, I'm Hallie. Okay, perfect, awesome, I'm glad we can figure that out. Listen, I got an email about you from one of our listeners, and I wanted to still just a few minutes of your time if you have a second Okay, who is it from? His name is Curtis? Oh, okay, yeah. And Curtis emailed us because he said, you guys went out on a date and you sort of ditched out in the middle

of it. Like he said, you guys went to the movies, and then he said you were going to the bathroom and then just took off and he hasn't been able to get a hold of you ever since. So he asked if we could maybe get you on the phone and find out why you left the date. Well, I mean sometimes things like that happened. Really, that doesn't happen a whole lot. Did you ditch him on your date? It's a little more complicated than that. I don't think

it is. If you leave five minutes into a movie, that is ditching someone, Okay, but you don't know the whole story. Well, would you mind telling us the whole story? Yeah? I don't know. It's kind of weird telling this to someone I've never met before, and I know I can understand that. But imagine this. Imagine if you went on a date with somebody and then they just ditched you in the middle of the date. You're probably wondering what you did wrong? Right? No? Not really? Okay, Well a

lot of people would be wondering. And Curtis has been racking his brain trying to figure out why you left the date. Can you give us any information to tell us if he screwed up, or if he said something weird, if he acted weird anything. He definitely acted weird. I mean, he's he's not used to dating. Just because you go out with somebody who's, you know, maybe nervous, doesn't mean you should ditch him. I don't know if he was nervous. He just doesn't know how to act in social situations.

I'll tell you this, Hallie. We talked to him a little bit about your date, and he sounds like a nice guy. He just sounds a little bit awkward. Yeah, he was very awkward. Okay, well what did he do specifically that was awkward? Where do I start? Just at the beginning would be great. So we were supposed to meet up in a bar and then go to a movie. So I showed up, and right off the bat, it was clear that he'd probably had a couple of drinks

before I got there. They saw him across the way and then he saw me and he shout clear across the bar. Hey, well he was probably excited to see you. Yeah, big deal. Okay, fine, maybe you give him a pass on that. But then I sit down and he took it upon himself to order me a drink. Like you didn't ask what you wanted, He just ordered it for you know. It was like what would Milady like? And not even like it's like I know what Milady would like and orders me a drink, and he ordered himself

another one. And when the drinks came to the table, he busted out like this Lord of the Ring's gallum impersonation calling his drink my precious, I'm like rasping it to his chest. Had you guys bonded over Lord of the Rings before he said, you guys talked about it? I mean, I guess you had mentioned he like sci fi but really weird. But come on, he's a little dorky. That doesn't give you a right to just ditch somebody. Okay,

well that was dorky. But then from that he started talking about space and how amazing space is and how he just loved it and the idea of being witless in space and being able to see the world from afar and floating there. Wouldn't it be amazing to have sex and space? Oh? No, I agree with him. It probably would be pretty interesting to have sex in space. Yeah, that didn't interest you at all when he brought that.

I had known the guy for like twenty minutes. What was your reaction when he asked about having sex in space and said, yeah, that sounds really cool by that? Why didn't you just make an excuse why you had to leave? Then? Well, I was thinking maybe it'll get better. I'll give him or I'll go to the movie with them. But then when we sat down. I realized that he had chosen a sci fi movie, and God only knows what that would have brought up with them. So you

just decided to call it quits right then and there. Uh. I couldn't see myself sitting there for two hours while he geeked out over the sci fi movie. I'm sure, I mean, he was nice enough. I'm sure there's someone out there for him, but it's not me, And you don't feel like you should have responded to him at all, just to say, hey, sorry, I'm all right. Well you've actually kind of already told him though, because he is on the other line listening to this conversation right now.

Let's talk to you. He's on the phone right now. Yes he is, Curtis. Yeah, I'm here. Say hi to Hallie. Hi, Hallie. Curtis. So you didn't have anything going on with your family at all? I was I thought you had a family emergency or something. No, everyone in my family is fine. I just can't understand someone not responding when someone asked if your family's okay. That's just so strange to me. I don't know that's strange to you. Everything that night

was strange to me. Well, you could have fooled me. You seemed like you were having a great time. Really, you know, my friends all really like my gollum and pression. So I don't know what that's about my Fresshion. I mean, I think it's strong. It's not the best, but it's strong. I don't understand the hate on that. I think it's funny. Curtis, Oh my god, Helly, he's adorable. Oh my Blumisha. I mean, how does she not find that enduring? Honestly, don't know.

I mean, Hellie, he's he's cute, he's funny. It was bizarre. I mean it sit me in the middle of a bar, a crouded bar, and he's doing this impersonation. It wasn't just the voice he like embodied the character, round him down and hovering over his drink. He was just committed to his impression. Halle. I don't think I should have to defend my Lord of the Rings impression. I mean, I don't understand. I don't know where that's coming from. I'm not asking you to defend it. I just don't

have to be around for it. So because I did a gallum impression to try to be funny for you, like, you won't go out with me again? Chris, It wasn't just that. What was all the sex and space stuff? I find the universe very interesting and it it came up in our conversation. No it didn't. It didn't. Well, it takes two to have a conversation, so obviously it did. You don't think it's interesting at all having sex and space. I don't know what to say right now. You know what?

Hellye though, I would love to ask if you'll go on a second date with Curtis, we will pay for it. No, are you positive? I'm positive positive. I guess some girls that aren't into sci fi and humor, but that's her loss. Yeah it is, Curtis. You know what, Curtis, You'll be all right. You'll find somebody who's more your speed. Man. Yeah, I think so. I'm not going to let this discourage me. I mean, if there's a lot of fish in the seas,

yeah there is. And in the meantime, if you want to get together and talk about the sex and space thing, I'd be totally interested to have that conversation with you. Cool, right, Yeah, it does really cool. Broken jewel in the morning,
