Looking jubil in the morning. You've got to be careful when joking around on a first date because the other person might not get your sense of humor. Like, I don't know how many dates have been ruined that I've been on when in the middle of it, I just dropped my fork and I look her dead in the eye and just go, how many other people know you're out with me right now? That's a really funny joke. They never get it. It just ruins the mood right there.
And Maggie, who is on the phone with us right now to do a second date update, apparently made a poorly time joke on her date and she thinks that's why she's not getting a call back today. We'll find out what her joke is in a second hopefully it's as good as mine. But first let's find out a little bit about the guy that she wants to call. Maggie, how are you? I'm good? How are you good? So you want to call a guy named Ray today? Well,
actually I want you to call him good. Point. I guess that is how the second DA updates work, right, I called him? Well, you want me to call a guy named Ray to day? Where'd you meet Ray. Ray and I met at a bar a couple of weeks ago. I was out with some of my girlfriends, not expecting to meet me buddy, and I meet this great guy and he and I end up talking for most of the night. Did he approach you or did you approach him? He? You know, he approached me. Did he use like a
cheesy line or was he pretty cool? You know? He actually he came over with two shots of fireball, Um, yeah, and he said can I warm you up? And that worked? Huh? Well I was a few drinks in, so, yeah, you're sober, that probably wouldn't have worked exactly right. Yeah, you're the type of girl that never turns down free alcohol, is what it sounds like, right, I'm not. No. So we just started talking after that, and I get home from the bar and he texted me. Was it a booty
call text? Or was it a nice place? He just said it was great to meet me, and he loved to go out for coffee later that week's Yeah, which was great. Normally guys will text me a picture my number, especially if you had a bar and you've been drinking fireball all night. It's like, I know how to I know how to seal the deal. Here, give her a
little sample of the goods. Yeah, yeah, So anyway to h getting pictures, but I didn't this time, which was surprising, and it's so sad that that's the exception to the rule. Is the one guy that doesn't send you is junk, I know. I mean that's kind of the day and age we live in right now. There's a beautiful time we're living in. So how was coffee then? It was awesome. He was very sweet. He you know, pulled the chair up for me when we got to the coffee bar,
and he even paid for my coffee. He was very gentleman. Where standards really are low normally if I get pictures after a night of fireball, yeah, my standards are pretty low right now. But that sounds good. I mean, it sounds like he was generally excited to see you, because sometimes after a you know, inebriated night in a dark bar, daylight dates can be a little shocking, exactly right. So
it was a great date. So tell me about the joke though, you said that you made a joke you thought might have been poorly timed or he didn't get it or something. Yeah, Okay, what happened? So I'm a pretty sarcastic person anyway, and he and I were talking and he says something like, I bet you get asked out by a lot of guys. And I said, yeah, man, you know i've in this past week alone. You're my thirtieth date, ampletely joking. Yeah. He gives me this blank look.
He didn't get it. No, he thought I was being sperited, Like, whoa, you didn't have to be honest, right? Did you clarify for him that it was a joke. I didn't, you know. A few seconds when five him not laughing, and I said, we find kidding, Like, obviously I haven't gone out with thirty guys in the past week because I made that awkward joke. So okay, So that's the reason you think that he's not calling you back is he thought you might not have been joking about dating thirty guys. You
think so? Yeah? I think, all right, Well, how did the date end? Then again, very gentlemanly, he gave me a hug and a peck on the cheek and he said, this was fun. We should do dinner sometime. Okay, that's good. Yeah, so I thought it ended on a high note. You should have messed with him some more and be like, yeah, that's good, I'll fit you in. I got like forty five other dudes if you would get it. Yeah, all right, And he hasn't responded to any of your text messages
a phone call since that day. No, and that was a couple of weeks ago. I'm surprised that you want to see him, just because I think it's pretty unattractive when a guy can't laugh at things. You know, I'm not used to going out with gentlemanly guys. So I mean, he was really sweet, and I get I can't blame him for not getting the joke. You know, we don't even really know if that's why he's not calling you about through now. Yeah, yeah, it could have been something
completely different. Right, Well, we'll find out what it is. We'll play song, come back, call him and get your second date update. Okay, all right, hang on brooking jubil in the morning. Second This could be a second date update. First, Maggie, who's on the phone to do a second day update today, just admitted to us that she has been with thirty guys in the last week. The impressive statistics Maggie, Good
job girl. If you missed the first part of the second date update, Maggie met this guy named Ray at a bar. They went out for a coffee date. After meeting up, she said everything was going well, but she made a joke to him when he said like something along the lines of I bet you go out on a lot of dates. Her response was, yeah, I've been on thirty dates in the past week. The only thing is he didn't get the joke, and he just kind
of sat there like, oh my god. And that's why she thinks she's not getting a call back because he still doesn't think that it's a joke. It's pretty hard to go out with that many people in one week. So hopefully, maybe Maggie, we can get him to realize that and go out with you again. Are you ready to give him a call? Yes for sure. Okay, this one's so weird to me because he asked you to go out to dinner at the end of the day. I mean, he was obviously complimenting your looks when he
said you must get asked out a lot. I don't get that one little joke would make him not call you. I know, I know, so I'm excited to see what the problem is. One little joke. If you didn't get the fact that he was if like he was thinking that you really went out with thirty guys in a week, that's bigger than a little joke. All right, I'm gonna die with one of her right now and see we get him on the phone. Okay, okay, Hello, can I speak to Ray? Please? Yeah? This is Ray? Hey, Ray,
how are you? This is Jewel from Brook and Jewel in the Morning. Who Jewel from Brook and Jewel in the Morning. It's a radio show. Okay, how's it going fine? Any idea why I'm calling you? Uh? No, We recently got an email about you from one of our listeners. Her name is Maggie, and you recently went out on
a date with Maggie. Okay, okay, do you remember that happening? Yeah, okay, Well, Maggie emailed us because she's wondering why you haven't given her a call back, especially at the end of the day when you were like talking about maybe meeting up for dinner or something. She hasn't heard from you, so she asked if maybe we could get you on the phone to find out why. Oh is there a reason you're not calling Maggie back. Uh. I mean, it's just it's probably not going to work out. Oh man, why
is that? Uh? I don't know. I just I don't think we're I don't think we're a good match. Is there a specific reason? Why do you think that? Um Ray, you're a hard guy to read. I agree, Why don't at all? Why don't you think you guys would be a good match? I don't know. I mean, Maggie, she's a really nice girl, probably one of the nicest girls I've met in a little while here. But she just she likes to do a lot of stuff. What do
you mean by that, like drugs? She didn't. Yeah, what do you mean by she likes to do a lot of stuff? She just like, I don't know. We were we were talking about stuff. She was saying all the things she likes to do. She likes to take cooking classes, and she like rides a bike, and she, I don't know, always goes out with her friends. And she sounds like a fun, interesting person. By the thing you said, it sounds like normal interests to me. You're right, She's totally interesting,
normal person. I'm the one I'm not very normal, Like when she asked me what I like to do, I don't really like to do very much, and I don't hold up against her. So you don't have any hobbies or interests. I mean, I like watching TV, you know, hanging around the house, and maybe maybe that's one of the things that she likes to do too. Did you talk to her about that? Well? I think probably she does, but I don't know if I could keep up with all that other stuff. You don't have to go biking
with her or hiking or whatever she likes to dods. Yeah, I don't know. I could just tell I think I think she deserves someone really amazing. I don't know if I'm really up to snuff. You just sound like you just have really bad self esteem, buddy. No, I mean, I'm It's not my fault that I'm like this. It's just it was probably the way I was raised. But I don't have a problem with it. I just don't
think it maybe matches up with her lifestyle. Okay, but don't you think that's a decision she should make, not you for her, because you don't know how she feels. Well. She might even be okay with it now, but I know that in a little bit she's gonna see like what I see now, which is that I mean, she's not gonna like it. I mean, for instance, I don't want to be expected to do things. Hey. Look, I
am one hundred percent with you on that, Ray. Whenever I'm in a relationship, it's the worst when you're expected to do things. But you don't know if she's going to ask you to go bike you can. You know, both have your own separate lives. We're just two totally different people. I mean, she's fun like to do things and I'm not. I'm just boring. Well, maybe have you thought about this? Maybe if you date her, you could learn to do some activities that you like. See that
sounds like a lot of pressure right there. All right, well, Ray, if that's if that's not enough pressure for you, hear some more pressure. She's actually on the other line listening to this conversation and wants to talk to you. What hello, Hi, Nah? Like it really breaks my heart to hear you talk about yourself like that. I don't feel bad about it. And I'm just boring And you're not boring. You don't want to date me. You're being really hard on yourself. Ray,
Are you always like this? I'm not trying to be a downer. I'm just being realistic just how things are. Being honest, Well, I had a really great time with you a couple of weeks ago, and talking to you now you sound like a completely different person. I mean when you asked me what I like to do, didn't you notice that it took me like ten minutes to get back to you On that You asked me what my interests were, and I realized I don't really do anything.
I don't really have any interest, So I don't know. I kind of feel like maybe I should look at that. You are you saying that your date with Maggie like changed your whole perspective on life. I'm just looking at things a little differently now. Wow, Maggie, what did you do? You mean? Right? You really don't think this about yourself? I just think I need to take some time with myself and just you know, I think you're really sweet,
and I think you are really onto something. If you're onto something, and Maggie, you keep doing what you're doing, you're onto something. So Ray, let me ask you this, Ray, I will pay for a second date if you guys go out again? Will you go out with Maggie one more time? Oh? My God? Really likes you, Ray. She thinks you're interesting and fun and attractive. I do, Ray, you know, I like that. You're really sweet and you're gentlemanly. I mean you pulled my chair up for me at
the restaurant. You know, guys don't do that. So I would love to see you again. M hm. Oh what in that list you forgot? Boring? You know I like doing boring stuff too. I like sitting around doing nothing. That's that's fun for me sometimes, you know, if you're just saying that to impress me, that's how you really impress a lot of people. Yeah, I'm super boring. Ray. Is there any way we can get you to go with Maggie again? I mean you're paying for it. Yes,
you're in a slump. You need this. You could be boring and she won't mind. M fine, but don't expect much. So so is that yes? Then you'll go out with Maggie? Yeah? Yes, congratulations, Maggie, you got a second date. I don't so you are excited about this? Well, yeah, I'm excited. It just sounds like he's going a many slump, so I'm I'm excited to help him get out of it. Good. Well, you can be raised slumpbuster, then I'm not in a slump.
This is how I am. Please don't expect more. Well, I'm excited to hear about how this whole date turns out with you guys too. It's close to you know, a romance novel or something. I won't be too exciting broken juwel in the morning,
