Rooking jew bowls. Second date update. A lot of times in life you get caught up in the moment and then you do something later on you think about and you go, I'm a dumbass. Probably should not have done that. Nathan is on the phone with us right now for a second date update, and that's sort of what happened on his date. Nathan. How you doing, I'm doing all right, You're exactly right. Thank you for your email, appreciate it. Well, we'll let you kind of explain the story of what happened.
I thought it was hilarious actually, just picturing what you said in your email. But first of all, how did you meet the girl that you want us to call today? Her name is Maggie. Yeah, okay, how did you meet Maggie? I met here on okay Cupid. I know, like sometimes it's just people look at that in a hook up site, but um, but I figured that she was worth you know, getting to know a little bit. All right, So normally you hook up with all the other girls, this one
was special. You liked Maggie. How so how long are you chat for a couple of weeks and then decided to go out? Yeah, we set up a date for a dinner date. And what'd you do at your dinner date? Where'd you go? We went to this really great restaurant that I wanted to try. It had just a great water view. Oh fancy. I called ahead to let them know if I could reserve one of the best seats, you know, like with with the best view right by
the water, and they gave that to you. Yeah, drop a name or anything else, because next time, if you're having a problem with that, I will allow you to drop Rose's name and you can do that. Will set you by the bag at the kitchen. So you got the table that you wanted, buy the water. That's cool. Yeah, and you were still excited about this date because everything had panned out in person, right. She didn't turn out to be someone who I don't know, looked more like
job of the Hut or something. No exactly. She looked like her photo, which is rare. It's impressive. Yeah, and how was dinner? Dinner was great, The conversation went well, the food was good. Um, tell us about the part that you think is the reason that you might not
be getting a call back today. It's so embarrassing. And again I thought of this after the date, I was trying to figure out, you know, just sort of playing it through my head and realized that we're having conversation and you know, I'm looking at her and taking her in and sort of looking at her face. Yeah, yeah, exactly, And I noticed that her ear lobes are really not
just are like sort of barely connected. Now, some people have those ear lobes that are Yeah, some people's ear lobes go like straight into their cheek and then the other ones kind of have like a big lobe on its exactly, and it's such a silly thing. But I was just caught up in it and it is like really kind of dangle, you know. And she had kind of big earrings on, and I thought they were cute. It was it was just me like getting caught up in it and we were talking and I thought they
were cute. And I reached across the table and I played with her earlobe. Yeah that is gonna be so weird on a first day, just like while she's stock were you guys touching it all before you played with her ear lobe? Okay, said, that's what I wanted, and that's what I wanted to know because when you put it in your email, I was like, Okay, if they were holding hands or something before, maybe I could see it.
But if she's just in mid conversation and you slowly this is how I picture Nadan slowly reached across the table while gazing into her eye and then just start flicking her ear lobe. That's gonna be weird. It maybe even worse than that. I mean, it wasn't even like we were gazing. She was in the middle of a conversation. She was in the middle of what did you caress the I mean, what did you do with the ear lobe? No,
it wasn't a caress. It was more like he was intriguing, like to see what was her reaction, Like immediately she flinched. I mean it was a yeah, it was inappropriate me. Did she stop talking after that? Did you just like kind of look at you like what did you just do? Yeah? She did kind of like a like can I help
you kind of a thing. And then I just started talking and I was like, you were saying with genetic and I was saying, well, everyone in my family are there attached, and I just you know, so you started talking about her ear after you play her exactly all right. You know what, I don't even know if there's a move you could have done to make that better, if you would have just been like, sorry, I thought you had nice lobes. Hey, this is why I did that.
How did the rest of the evening go after that happened? I mean it seemingly that didn't seem to ruin anything. We continued on. But then looking back, you know, I asked her if she wanted to dessert. This place has they bring out a beautiful dessert selection you can stick from, And she was like, no, I'm not hungry, you know, so that's a sign. And then at the end of the date, I walked her to her door, and I would have wanted to go in for the kiss, and then it just it didn't feel right. So I gave
her a hug. And you should have given her one last flick on the earlobe for the road. So you went in for a hug. And at the end of the night did she say that she wanted to see you again? I said, I'd love to do something like this sometime, you know, Can I give you a call? And she said sure? But you know then I think it speaks more that I haven't been able to get
in touch with her for the last two weeks. I've you know, sent her a text here and there, and it just I haven't really you haven't gotten anything back at all. Yeah, all right, Well, we'll play a song, come back, call her, see if we can get her on the phone, See if we can get her pressed those beautiful ear lobes up to the phone and answer, and we'll get your second date up date. Okay, alright,
all right, hang the brooking jubil in the morning date. Hey, Nathan, Yeah, I think I figured out what the problem is with the date that you went on. Nathan wants us to call this girl named Maggie. On their date. Nathan got a little wrapped up in the moment, noticed her ear lobes and did something that he knows is weird. He reached over and started playing with her ear lobe and it and it's set a really weird thing for the rest of the day because that's an awkward thing to do.
But Nathan, I think I figured out the problem. It's not the fact that you played with their ear lobe. It's the fact that you didn't play with her ear lobe enough. Everybody in here knows, Nathan. As soon as you'd go for the ear on a lady, you gotta go all the way. You know what I mean by that? Nathan? Yeah, I didn't commit. Yeah? Did you only play with one side? Maybe you should have gone for two? Yeah, nobody likes
a lobe. Team's a very good point. All right, Nathan, We're about to give Maggie a call and see if the ear lobe fiasco killed your chances at a second date. Are you ready? Yeah, I'm ready. Okay, I'm gonna call he right now. Hello, Hi, can I speak to mag He please? Hi? Maggie? How are you? This is Jewel from Brook and Jewel in the Morning. Sorry, can I help you with something? You recently went out on a date with one of our listeners, but you're not calling
him back. So he emailed us to give you a call and find out if he did something wrong on the date. Now, the guy that wanted us to call you today knows that he did something a little strange on your date. His name is Nathan. Okay. Nathan says that he's tried to text you a few times since your date, and so he called a radio station. Yes, so he called us to see if we could get you on the phone. Since you're not answering his phone calls and ask you why seriously? Yes? Is it because
he played with your ear lobe on the date? He told us about it? Oh? Did Yeah, he told us all about your date. He said that he met you on okay Cupid and he liked you a lot. Thought you guys are getting on very nicely until in the middle of dinner he reached over and played with your ear lobe. I'm assuming that's probably the issue. The earlobe thing was definitely part of it, part of it, that's
not the entirety of it. Because as soon as Maggie, if I was on a date with someone and they reached across and just started jiggling my earlobe back and forth while I was talking, if they were hot, there'd be a second date, but most people would not want to call anybody back after that. I assumed that it was just the earlobe. What else did you not think was so great about Nathan? Um? It just it seems like he's not somebody who goes out on dates a lot.
Was he just really awkward like the ear lobe thing? And maybe the earlobe thing was a little inappropriate. But he also he kept making like really out of date pop culture references. Hey, there is nothing wrong with that. I'm gonna just pump in and defend it right now. Woo woo is fine. What do you mean? What do you mean out of date pop culture references? Well, it kind of seemed like he went out and memorized a bunch of stuff that he thought would be like relevant
to like have a conversation. Like at one point he was like, oh, my gosh, did you hear that Katie Holmes broke up with Tom Cruise? That happened? And I was like, I was like, yeah, that that happened a while ago. And he's like, oh really, because I just it's so fucking like ten years ago. Yeah, And he made a reference at one point, he's like, oh my gosh, have you seen this new music video dogman style style? He was trying to talk about Gongnom style, which was
also not very relevant. Yeah, how did this come up in conversation? Were you guys talking about pop culture type things? And No? That's that's why it kind of felt like he memorized a bunch of stuff or something, because it was like these little kidbits he would kind of just like throw into the conversation and so so you'd be talking about something completely different he would just kind of spout off like I know this pop culture of fact hage.
That's what it felt like. Yeah, it's like going on pop up video, but which is also another relevant reference. I don't think that show has been on the air end about fifteen years. Yeah, okay, so I obviously felt like he must have been a little weird. I mean, he seemed really sweet, and I felt really bad, and I didn't think it would benefit anybody to like tell him I didn't want to see him. Aren't you kind of curious though? Why the out of date pop culture
references during your date? I just figured he was really nervous, and you don't. Aren't you curious about the earlobe play that you got? What'd you want to hear? Him? Kind of just chocked it up to him being nervous, So don't you want to hear the reasoning behind India that? I mean, maybe, but not enough to want to hurt his feelings. I figured, you know, just maybe just not calling him backwards. Well, I know how to get your answer, though, You said, maybe you'd like to hear the reason on that.
I can get you an answer because he's on the phone right now listening. Maggie. Hey, Maggie, here is Yeah, I'm listening. Why didn't nobody tell me this? I forgot, Maggie. I'm glad I got to hear what you had to say. And I wanted to make a good impression, and I was nervous. I'm sorry, I'm not you know, mister pop culture. But men and women like different things, and I have to admit I did a little online research. Nathan. I
don't think that she's miss pop culture like you were thinking. Okay, and men and women are different, that's true, But did you just start reading things online too? Well? You know, I know that the video didn't just come out, but how I don't know how you pronounced that word. I'm sorry, style all right, whatever it is, and it's still the most watch video on YouTube. It's true. Yeah, the stale
is so that's a relatable. I was trying to, you know, trying to and Tom Cruise has a new movie coming out, and so, all right, people like Tom Cruise movies. But Nathan, don't you think she'd want to hear about your hobbies or talk about your introu I mean, you're interesting people. You can talk about that. Aren't you supposed to relate to people? Yeah? But again yeah, but you're just kind of like to see if you guys naturally get along.
You know, I have to say something really quickly. I mean, I'm actually a little offended that you think that all girls are just kind of really into pop culture, because you know, I'm the kind of person that like to relax. I watch like documentaries, and I go to art sy foreign films and stuff. And the fact that you would sort of assume that the way to all women's heart is by People magazine is that actually is kind of offensive to me. I'm casting a broad neet. We're just
trying to find anything relatable. I wasn't casting a broad net that was trying to impress me with a very limited frame of reference. Well, Maggie, at least he put effort into it. He tried, he read, he prepared, Like girls are on guys, a lot of times, we're not putting enough effort in well, but I would have preferred for him to put effort in getting to know me. I mean, I was asking him a lot of questions
about him. You know, I didn't feel like I needed to go bone up on football and Playboy to impress. But I wouldn't have been I wouldn't have been offended if we talked about who won the World Series two years ago. I was like, why are you reading up on guy stuff? Trying you are? Look, Maggie, I was just nervous, all right. I would like to get to know you, and I would love a few made a suggestion for a second date, whatever kind of thing appeals
to you, beauty salon or whatever. I don't know the truth be told, I might have just chalked the first one up to nerves and tried it again. But after this conversation, I really have no desire. Really, but I think that everything Nathan has said to you is kind of nice. I mean, he's apologize. He did not apologize for the ear lobe thing yet, but I guess that was not the biggest issue with you. I mean, it
just sounds like Nathan was nervous. I think I was most nervous because we had such a good rapport back and forth to set the date up. You know, That's what got me nervous to the data is because I thought that was going so well. Okay, Maggie, let me let me ask Nathan. Let me ask you a question, and then I'll decide. Other than the fact, I'm assuming that you find me somewhat attractive or you wouldn't really want to go out another date with me? What is it about me that makes you want to go on
another date? Well, I mean, first attraction is important, and you're passionate. I did like that you talked about things passionately. That you do seem intelligent and well read, Maggie, would you seem passionate about specifically? I'm going to try not to let it get there, Maggie, will you go out on a second date with Nathan? We will pay for it, and Nathan can tell you in person what he likes about you and what do he thinks is good about
your passion and whatever. I promise it's just going to be you and I talking about you, and I I won't I won't watch any housewive, and I promise I won't flick your ear lobe. I forgot all about that. Nathan. You do seem like a nice person, and I understand what it's like being really nervous on a first date. So I will go out on another date with you if we can agree to just not try to impress and just really try to legitimately get to know each other,
no no pressure or anything. Right, Yeah, alright, sweet, that sounds great, and I won't be so awkward next time. It's okay. I understand what that's like. So it's all right. We got you guys a second date. Maggie, thank you for being understanding. Thank you for being on the show. I appreciate it. Nathan, Yeah, you are right. I can hear through the phone that Maggie has fabulous. Your logo broken juwel in the morning.
