Second Date Update PODCAST: Rope Swing Fail

a second date update. Once again, the curse that is Mother Nature ruined his date. What's up, Josh? How are you doing? Guys? Please tell me you don't agree with him, right, Josh? I don't know. There's like ups and downs, right because I thought it was a great idea before this one. Um, so like I don't fully agree, but I mean there's moments, Okay, there's moments when Mother Nature's just a yes, yeah, exactly. And this sounds like a case of just that, Josh,

according to your email. So before we get into your situation, what's the name of the girl that you want to call today? My name is Rachel. Rachel okay, and where did you meet Rachel. I met her on Tinder. Okay, and did you guys connect because you both love the great outdoors? Yeah, I mean kind of. Yes. We were talking about a couple of things to do, you know, we matched up, and do you like hiking? I like hiking? Doesn't everyone like hiking on dating profiles though, Yeah, that's

the standard thing everybody puts. I like hiking and I'm into food. It's like what you put down when you can't think of any real true hobbies that you have. But I do. I actually do like hiking. I always come hiking with my dogs. My dog's name is Girlfriend. Oh my god, that's really cute or desperate. Look at it, Josh, I'm telling you you've already won a lot of Brownie points. Yeah. She's a good dog. Okay, so you do want to do a second day update with your dog or you wanted? Oh, Rachel,

I want to call Rachel because she's she's the person. Yeah, so did How did hiking go with Rachel? It was nice. We met in the parking lot um and then we uh and we walked on down the path, got to there was about like ten minutes into the day. We were laughing. We're having a good time talking, and girlfriend was running around all up in front, all through the valley. I'm gonna get so confused when you're calling your dog girlfriend this entire thing. I know, I'll just refer to

her as my dog from now on. Okay, there you go, that would be helpful. Yeah, all right, so your dog's running around, you're out there with Rachel getting eaten by mosquitoes and sunburn. Probably sense horrible, But okay, you guys sound like you're enjoying yourself. Yeah, we're having a good time.

So I found this, um, this rope swing. It's hanging from this solid branch just right in the middle of this valley, right and then she gets on the swing and I accidentally push her from like length wise down the valley, so she didn't have a place to step off of onto the different sides of the valley. Does it make sense? No, Like, is this swing over a

canyon or something? I don't understand when you're saying valley. Yeah, it's like a slight valley where you can go up on one side of the valley and put your foot in a little knot on this little kind of kind of swing thing, and you can you can kind of step off it and swing back and forth. So it's like a rope swing that would go over water, but there's no water. There's this exactly like it used to be. It used to be a river, but it's now not

a river. Got it? Okay, there's an opportunity that if you fell off into the valley or the dry river bed or whatever, you could hurt yourself pretty bad, which is unfortunately what happened. She fell off the rope swing onto the ground. Yeah. I mean, she got up on the rope swing right, and I pushed her lengthwise down the valley and she wasn't able to stop properly, and she tried to get off of it, and she got her foot stuck and she accidentally fell onto the ground

and scraped up her entire leg. How did she react? I mean, obviously she's in pain, but like, well, I mean obviously, like I went over to see like how she was doing when she fell, but she was a little fisted and she said, you know, clearly, that's not the right way to push me. That's funny, and I was I felt really bad. I ended up helping her up and getting her up off the ground, but I guess it ended up semi okay. She ended up like

leaning on me the entire way back, which was nice. Wait, and I'm like, in the back of my head, I was like, no, no, no, but she's hurt. Yeah, she had to limp the entire way back so badly that she had to lean on you for support. It was kind of cute. Great plan, Josh, I like it. What happened at the end? Did she just get in her car and leave? No? Like I asked her. I was like, so, I mean, this was like a terrible idea, but why don't we do something safer next time? How was that

let's actually just go to dinner or something like that. Oh, and you said you've been texting. As she stopped talking to her, guys are still kind of talking. It's kind of like it's just off and on. Like she texts me, I text her, I really don't know, Like it seems like she's blowing me off, but I don't know. Okay, Well, play a song, come back, call her and find out if she is blowing off. And if she isn't, it

might ruin your chances of getting a second date. But we'll see in your second date update coming up right after this looking jubil in the morning. If you're just joining us for today's second date update, Josh is on the phone and Josh is what we referred to as a swinger. That's right, and that might have ruined Josh's first date because Josh took his date for a little swing in action. And apparently when you swing too hard, people get hurt. You know what I'm saying, Josh, Yeah, yeah, yeah,

possibly yeah yeah. If you missed the first part of today's second date update, Josh took a girl named Rachel hiking. They went hiking and then they found a rope swing on the trail somewhere and they swung back and forth on it. He did fine, and then when he pushed her, he pushed her the wrong way down like a little ravine or something, and she ended up falling because she couldn't get off the swing, and she scratched up her leg.

And then they ended the date after he patched her up and sent her on her way, and she's been texting with him but kind of giving him the blow off. So we're gonna find out if it's another case of swinging gone wrong when we call her in just a second, any last thoughts, Josh, No, I hope you guys can get to the bottom of this. She's a she's very beautiful and she's really fun. She did like a super symmetrical face. What that's okay? I mean, yes, she must

be very photographic. She's very photographics. You know what they say, symmetrical faces are good jeans. No, you know that's a that's a thing, right, Josh. I thought you were so normal until you just started analyzing the distance between her eyes. Sorry, it's just I don't know, it's something that I noticed about anyway, She's very beautiful. Here we go, Josh. I'm gonna find out why she doesn't want to go out with you. I'm gonna do her phonn him right now.

Here we go. Hello, Hi, may I speak to Rachel? Please? This is Rachel. Hey, what's up, Rachel? How are you? This is Jewel from Brook and Jewel in the Morning is the radio show. Yes, we actually got an email about you from one of our listeners. What from who? Well, his name is Josh, and you guys recently went on a hike together. Oh okay, I can't tell. That's a good laugh or not good laugh. Yeah, Josh. Yeah, so I was not expecting this call. Wasn't expecting to be

on the radio right now. Why is he sending emails about me? Well, because we do a segment on our show called the Second Date Update. That's where if you go out with somebody on a date and then end up blowing them off, they email us to see if we can get you on the phone and find out what happened. And Josh kind of thinks that you've been giving him the runaround. I mean, I don't really think

I blew him off. Well, he says that you guys, you know, been texting a bunch, but you'll kind of disappear for a few days, and then every time he asks you out, you say you're busy. I mean, you know, I don't know. Some stuff has come up. I've had a couple of extra works. If happened, I don't know. It just hasn't been the easiest to meet back up with him. Yeah right now. But Rachel, when you really

like somebody, you make time. Okay, true? Yeah, I mean sure, okay, So Rachel, should I just go back to Josh then and say, hey, Rachel absolutely wants to go out with you. She likes you a lot, and she can't wait. Okay, all right, please don't know. Obviously you don't really want to go out with him again? Can you tell us why? I mean, he's a nice guy, he's fine. Um, he just has some weird habits. I guess there are a couple of weird tendencies I found out. I don't know

what are they. Um, I don't know. He's got weird ideas about his dog. I feel like weird ideas about his dog. I don't know. Um, he told us that the dog's name was Girlfriend, which I thought was kind of funny. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it was kind of cute. But then I don't know, it's just kind of creepy in the long run, I felt like, um, really it was creepy. Okay, now I'm really concerned because you said weird ideas about his dog, and now the word creepy has come up. Should we be on the phone with

police and not you? Now? No, I mean it's something that shocking, I guess, or that I don't know. Are you just not a person that likes dogs very much? Movie? Yeah? I love dogs, I love I have pets. I love my pets. It's just I don't like, I don't make out with them in front of people. WHOA, that's make out. That's a bold statement there, Rachel. Josh making out with girlfriend a little? I mean, oh really Okay, now you really have to face it was an been face kiss

what whoa? Let's let's rewind here a second, Rachel. So now you really have to explain when did he make out with this dog in front of you? After we took a little hike, we found like the swing, like a little rope swing, and you know, to cut to the point, I ended up getting hurt, okay, falling. And it's not that I'm really upset about getting hurt, like an accident, prone like whatever, But it was just when he came to check on me, he was, you know,

asking how I was. He was checking, you know, looked at my leg and then he was like, hey, do you want do you want my dog to like lick your wounds? What was wait? Yeah? Was he be serious? Like your bloody open wounds on your leg? Yeah? Like I was just cut like all down my leg, like

a big gash like on my thigh um. And I mean like I was still kind of coming out of it from like just the shock of like falling and like getting myself back together, and he was just like no, no, no, like he's like treating it like you know, the dog's tongue was medicinal and he's just like now there's like there's enzymes and the tongue and it helps break down things like this is how dogs, you know, heal their wounds in the wild, like they just look at back

to health. It'll stop the bleeding. And I was like, okay, can you just like poured some water on it, give me your t shirt maybe, Like so you didn't take him up on the dog, Like huh, I didn't, okay didn't. I just smell a little weird about it. Where does the dog makeout session happen? Well, like after I was like I don't know, you know, and he was just like, no, look,

it's fine. And so then he just gave he gave girlfriend a big kiss in front of me, and that just made me wonder like how like how much more is he doing this? Is he carrying around an albox? Was he expecting me to kiss him? After that? Like I don't know, Like it was like there's a few thoughts in my head after that, And I hate to ask for more graphic detail. But was it like tongue to tongue and dog kiss like he like opened I mean, yeah, the togs kind of came out there. There's definitely some

looking exchanges on the faces. It was looking each other. Yeah, there was just like a lot there was a lot of looking action around the mouth. Muse like full lip contact. You know, there's nothing wrong with that. I think a lot of people would argue with you. Is that Josh on the phone? Yeah, actually it is. He's been on the other line listening and wants to talk to you. Are you are you serious? Hi, Rachel. I had no idea that that was what the thing was that you

thought was weird. I mean, it was just it was a little off putting. It was just a little in the end, I think. Okay, but no, no no, let me explain. Like I wanted to show you how clean a dog's mouth was. I wasn't making out with the dog. I wanted to show you how clean it was. So it would lick your leg, hey, well your tongue for touching. So it really looked like you were you were heading for a makeout such to me, Well, yes, our tongues were touching. But that was just to prove to you

that dogs have clean mouth, you know. I mean that's fine. I've had a dog licking before. I just don't do it like that on purpose. Like I understand, it's fine. I mean, I'm just not trying. I'm not trying to have that dog be by doctor right now. I'm like my wounds, I get. I thought it would be good. I thought it would be it would be useful. I don't know, Josh, how okay. One, I don't know that your facts about dogs having clean mouth are true. I

think that's an old wives tale. And two, why on earth would you think it's a good idea to one kiss your dog and then offer to have your dog clean up I mean, essentially a stranger's wounds. The simplest way that I can actually say that that dog, Salima, has a lot of white blood cells in it that are it's very good to help clean out wounds, clean out scrapes, get all the gravel outside of you know. Look, I mean like even if you have a sunburned girlfriend,

can lick that right off for you. Oh so wrong, Josh. It sounds like you've done a lot of research in finding reasons for your dog to lick you. I not for not to like me, No, no, no, just to like heal No, just stick with Aliba. Josh, that is weird, man till stuff like that to me. I don't know, it's a little gross. I mean we were out in the woods that day anyway, so you don't know what she was already looking up off the ground, what she was sniffing. Like anything that goes in that mouth is

going to be cleaned out by that mouth. Good point, Josh, that's what they say. That's what they say, right, oh, Rachel, Rachel, after hearing everything that you just heard, Josh and his dog would love it if you would go out on a second date with them. Would you be interested? We will pay for it. I'm sorry, but I think I think I'm gonna have to pass. Yeah, I mean yeah, probably for a lot of reasons. I mean, you definitely would always be second tiered a girlfriend anyway, exactly exactly.

He's already got one girlfriend, so no, no, no, yeah, I am making a mistake, Rachel. His girlfriend's just the one little faster in my life, my tongue. He works in many different ways, Rachel. Whole thing are you sure you're sure you don't want to go out. Josh and his mysterious toime, Yeah, I'm gonna I'm gonna say now, I'm gonna say now. Yeah really didn't help your faith. Well, unfortunately, Josh, it just has to be you and your dog for a little while, which I don't think you're gonna mind

very much, so I think you're good. Actually, broken jewel in the morning,
