Speaker 1

Looking jewels a second d What do you do when you've exhausted all options in the dating world, when plenty of fish is thrown you back, and you've swiped so many times you reached the end of Tinder and then your phone explodes. That's what happens when you get to the end of Tinder. Well, you have to call in the big guns and hire a matchmaker. And that's apparently what the guy on the phone for a second Date

update did today. He found the girl that he went out with by using a matchmaker because nothing else on the planet worked for him. Ethan, was that a good recap of why you hired a matchmaker? I guess so. It kind of makes me sound pathetic. Oh that's not what I was going for. I was trying to make it sound like you were just using a creative method that a lot of people don't use. That's I wasn't trying to make it sound pathetic at all. Well, now I'm just sad it makes the girl who decided to

go out with you even more pathetic than you. Oh well that's that's a positive. Yeah, yeah, that's something only the really pathetic one to go out with me. Your email said that you use the matchmaker. I'm just making fun of it because I don't normally see that. Usually it's like online or you meet somebody in person. But why hire a matchmaker? You know? You mentioned tender and stuff like that, And I feel like, even when people say they're kind of looking for relationships on those kind

of sites, they're really not right. And I'm kind of over just going on dates. I want to find something serious. I got all that out of my system, you know, and I want to settle down. So I don't know a whole lot about matchmakers. Does that mean that the girl is also paying this woman to match make her. Yeah, that's the whole point. Yeah. They find someone who's also using their service, who matches you to the best of their ability, and then they get you in touch with

each other. How do they figure out who to match you up with? You have to spill out a profile, and it's a lot like the dating sites online. It's just that this person is more professional and they're more serious, and they're good at sort of figuring out really successfully who your best match is. Oh, you sound like a pitchman, because obviously it wasn't too successful. She's not calling you back. I mean it worked for me. I thought I thought

it was great. I thought it was awesome. Yeah, but apparently the woman you went out with didn't think it was as great. What's her name? Her name's Alyssa. What did you guys do on your date when he went out for lunch? Oh that's very low key. That's the way this matchmaker runs it. They want to make sure the first day is really easy and low key. Okay. And what was it like when I first mat her?

She was so pretty? I was nervous, cute, But when the matchmaker suggested this thing to kind of break the ice. It's a game called first photo, First photo? And what is that like you show a photo when you're a kid or something. No, it's like you each just pull up the first photo on your phone and show it to the other person. Okay, well, I'm glad that they tell you that beforehand. Prepare that could be really bad. Oh yeah, I had to delete a couple before the day.

I'm that kid. So what was your first photo? Then? Mine was just my nephew who i'd just seen him and he's a good kid. And hers was her and her mom. Okay, first off, I was like Oh great, she loved family too. Secondly, her mom was really hot. Yeah, so you end up marrying the mom. If that's what she's gonna age into, we're gonna be okay. And did you tell her that? Did you tell her how hot her mom was? Over and over? Oh no, no, no, no no. So what were the awkward moments on the date? Well, okay,

here's the thing. So we're eating. Everything's going really well, and then I noticed there's like a hair on her face, and I'm like, hey, I don't want it to fall into a food and be this might be a good excuse to touch her, you know, weird, So like rub her cheek. Yeah, like, hey, you got some on your cheek. I don't wanted to fall in your food here, and I go to wipe it off. Are you hoping you like go to grab the hair and then you touch her cheek and time stops and then you guys make out?

Is that what you hope for it? I mean I wasn't gonna say that was going to happen, but if it did, yeah, that would be fine. Okay, So the romantic care on her face, what happened? Well, it was It wasn't just on her face. It was in her face. It was the real hair. It was the hair coming out of her face. Oh man, you plugged her hair on her face right out. How big was his hair? Oh my god, it was big enough for me to see it across the table. Where was the hair? Was

it like chin area or mustache? Aerike on the side of her chin? D Oh? Wow? Was she embarrassed? I mean I think we were both a little dary. She didn't say anything. She just kind of stared at me, and I kind of wiped my hand on the neapkin, and there was just like so anyway, he just plugged through. Huh. Yeah, all right. I didn't know what else to do. Yeah, I mean you were able to recover. Yes. We went

somewhere else for dessert. The rest of the day went really well, and I hugged her goodbye, and it was a really nice hug. It was one of those you know, kind of lingered for a few seconds. Okay, And was it you lingering or her? I think it was both of us. You didn't feel her like pushing you away and you're still holding on. Yeah, I know, nothing like to test And how long has it vin since you heard from her? Took two or five days, four or five days, and have you tried to get a hold

of her. I've called, I've texted, and I have not heard anything. I have not brought up the hair good good idea. I thought, yeah, I thought things were going great. She seemed to really have a good time, So I honestly don't know why she wouldn't respond to me. Okay, well we'll play a song, come back, call her and get your second date update. All right, I really appreciate you guys. Yeah, no problem, hang on brooking jubil in

the morning. Second, if you're just tuning in for today's second date update, Ethan is on the phone and he's not getting a call back from a girl named Alyssa. And I'm actually really surprised about it because he took her out on a beautiful spa day for their first date. It went out to lunch and then he plucked her hair from her face. You know a lot of people,

Ethan paid good money for that. You should have maybe even grabbed some cucumbers at the restaurant and threw him on her eyes and just act like hey, spondee, out of the blue, Well, like we can get a hold

of her. Maybe I'll tell her that, right, Yeah, if you missed the first part, Ethan thinks he's not getting to call back because while they were eating lunch, he reached over to remove what he thought was a stray hair from her chin, and the hair was attached and he ended up plucking a hair from her face and it was awkward for a while. But he does say the date ended with a nice hug. And it's been about four or five days since she hasn't been responding to him, So we're gonna call and find out why.

In just a second, in retrospect, Ethan, do you wish you would have apologized or made a statement about the hair like he'll maybe, you know, maybe that's what I did wrong. Maybe I'm in like not bringing it up and trying to be polite actually made it worse. I don't know. Yeah, maybe she's just embarrassed, or maybe she's just mad that you took her hair and never gave it back. Yeah, big jerk. All right, Well, I'm gonna dollar phone number right now and if we can figure

out why she's not getting back to you. Okay, okay, great, all right man, here we go. Hello, Hi, speak to Alissa, please doci. Hey, what's up, Alissa? How are you? This is Jewel from Brook and Jewil in the Morning. I'm good, I'm sorry. Who is this Jewbil from Brook and Jewil in the Morning the radio show. You're from a radio show. I don't understand why you're calling me. Yes, I am from a radio show. It's called Brook and Jewil in the Morning, and I'm calling you today because we got

an email from one of our listeners about you. What. Yeah, can you think of any reason somebody would email our show to get a hold of you. Did they nominate me for like a makeover? As over? That sweet? No? I wish that was the case for you. We don't really do stuff like that, so no, no makeover. I'm sorry. I don't understand wh would someone email you about me? Then? Because you guys went out on a date and now you're not calling him back? What ye sighting right? His

name is Ethan? Oh my god? Do you remember going out on a date with Ethan? Yeah? That that I do. I totally remember that. Okay, Well, Ethan emailed us because he said he really enjoyed going out with you. But ever since your date, he's been trying to call you, and now you're not responding to anything. So he was wondering why I just I don't want to say him. Is it? Is it because he plucked a hair out of your chin? We just went straight for it, did we?

He told you that, Yeah, he did. He said, that's the reason he thinks you're not calling him back is because he plucked one of your hairs on the date. Oh my goodness, so embarrassing. I don't don't be embarrassing. We all get a straight hair from now and again. I guess so. But why would he tell a radio station there's an email you about it? Well for him, he emailed us because he wants to get a hold

of you. And we asked him why he thinks you wouldn't want to see him again, and that was the only thing he could come up with, because he said, you guys had a really good time other than that. No, no, no, you didn't have a good time other than that. We did. But there's just one thing that's putting me out. And it wasn't that he was collecting your hairs one by one. Wait, hold on, did he tell you he was collecting my hair? No? I was joking, joke, because of the one hair that

he pulled up. Oh my god, my heart skipped be No, he didn't tell us that he was collecting all of your hairs. He just thinks that's the one reason you don't want to see him. I mean, it was completely embarrassing, but that's not what it was at all. No, So there's more to it than that. I don't even know if I should talk about it. I don't want to

put his business out there. Well, he wants his business put out there, like he actually asked us to do this so that his business could be out in the streets. So he said he's willing to hear whatever it is. So if it's on him, then do you mind just telling us? Well, okay, so what did he tell you about the d Well? He told us that you guys met through a matchmaker, went to lunch, and you play a game where you show each other like the last photo you took on your phone to try to break

the ice. Okay, yes, the first photo yeah, and and and we did that, and he showed me a picture of his nephew. Okay, and is that a problem? Is this was his nephew kind of ugly? No, No one's never he was cute though. Deal breaker for me. Yea, I makes my jeans with that line. Nobody kept going on for the next thirty minute. He just kept talking about having babies and kids like he wants he wants kids like now, Yes, he's completely obsessed with having a baby.

That's what I got from it, really, Like, what did he talk about? Well, he said it was a dream of his. Anytime he's out and he sees something that he likes, his baby clothes, he buys it. Yet, yeah, he has a stash need help with baby clothes? Are you kidding? He's a single, single bachelor that has a baby clothes stash, That's what he said. He even knows the room that he's going to convert to the baby room. He's already like nesting like a pregnant woman, like getting

everything ready at the house. Yes he is. He told me he can't wait to hear baby footsteps coming down the hallway, like so baby that was like a little bit too much to share. But I don't know, is it. Is it refreshing to you to find a guy who's interested obviously in family life or is that something you don't want? Yes, refreshing to know that a guy wants to have a family some day I do too, but it's creepy day. It's collecting baby clothes. He doesn't have

a baby. I know, I'd be aware for a single girl even to that. True, Like if you went over to his house after your day and you open up the closet, you just see a bunch of baby clothes. That's not sexy. What was your response to him? I mean my response was just to sit there and so listen to him. I mean he talks still talking about how you can't wait to hear his baby, say dad, at hang on, that's not fair. Who's it? Oh that's Ethan. Ethan's actually on the other line listening and also talk

to you. Hey, Lesa. Apparently he couldn't wait any longer and had to pipe in. No man has been wrong with one. They have a baby. You've been listening to this the whole time? Yeah, because you wouldn't return my calls or my text or anything. So you call radio stations. They haven't called me and list Well. I really liked you, and apparently you thought I was weird. I mean it was really weird talking about a baby that you don't have. But thirty minutes? What was that supposed to say to you?

I mean, is it that weird that you would think about the baby you might have someday for thirty thirty minutes? That long to talk about baby? It was I don't know, on a first date. Even if I if I were out with a woman and she was like talking about the baby that she wanted so badly, that would scare me. It wouldn't I mean, obviously wouldn't scare you, Ethan, but

it would scare a lot of dude. Yeah, But like the matchmaker already found somebody that I knew was like really serious and wanting a commitment to, so I just figured it wouldn't scare that person off. Well that's me, Ethan. I mean, I think everyone agrees that it's sweet that you're excited about fatherhood. I just but the collection of the baby baby clothes? Do you bring that up often on a first date? I mean, first off, to call it a collection is kind of going a little overboard.

It's not a collection. It's not like I have a room full of the stuff. Okay, so how many items? If we're talking about just anything happened to do with babies? I've got like fifteen things, but like they're not all like seven of them are onesies. I'm thinking it's like everybody thinks this is a big Joe kaha ho. It's really funny, But I'm actually prepared for a fatherhood. No, I think it's great. I just think it's great when you find out, maybe like two months into a relationship,

that you're that into it. Ethan. You even told me on a date that you already picked up the names for your kids already. How long have you been planning this, Ethan? I don't know why you guys think this is weird. I've been dreaming about having kids since I was a kid. What are the What are the names of your kids that you don't have yet? If I can ask? Or is that a secret? Well? I mean I want to have a boy and a girl, obviously, obviously, Yeah, and

you get to choose, obviously. He said for a boy would be Ken, and you would name this girl Sanctuary, Sanctuary and Ken. Yeah. The Ken kind of throws me. Yeah, it is when you come up with Sanctuary. Where does you know? You guys get saying whatever you want to say. But I'm probably the only guy in this room on this phone. That's actually preparing for a childhood. I'm not embarrassed about that. I'm not ashamed about that, and I don't think that people should should reject me because of it.

I know I actually agree with what you're saying. I do eat in it. I mean, he knows what he wants. He maybe gave you way too much information on the first date, and that's his bad for oversharing. But I didn't play on having a girl named Sanctuary. Yeah, that one you need to negotiate for sure. Well we could talk. Well, Alyssa, would you like to go out with Ethan on another date? We will pay for it. I don't know about all this done the thing? Where do you all it's crazy?

It's creepy. No, not at all, like every dude that I've known when we were kids, Like we would just sit around the playground and talk about the kids we were going to have one day and do they collect clothing? Yeah, of course, it's a totally normal dude thing. It's a little overwhelming, but I don't think that it's creepy. I mean, Alyssa, I feel like you're not giving me a chance. I feel like we should go out again because I have proven to you that I'm an honest, straightforward guy and

that I have a long term plan. And his clock is ticking, Alyssa, he doesn't have as much time. I guess, well, one more date wouldn't hurt. Oh, so you'll do it. You'll go out with Ethan one more time. I said, yes, Please don't ask me again before chase on mind. Congratulations Ethan, Oh, thank you, thank you so much. I'm so excited, and thank you Alyssa for giving me another chance. And we can talk about thank you, worried. Well, we'll discuss names later.

I'm just kidding. I'm not going to talk about the kids again. Well, good luck you guys. Keep us updated. Okay, thank you guys, and Alyssa. Yes, if he says he's on the pill, don't believe him in the morning. I gotta say, I'm really surprised at the responses on the text message board at seven eighty five to nine two about today's second date update. Here's a text, I love Ethan and it's not weird at all that he's collecting baby stuff. I don't think that's true. And then there's

another one that said that guy's a freak. He probably wears a diaper if you miss a day's second date update. Ethan wanted to call Alyssa. She wasn't calling back after their date. We got her on the phone and found out why. It's because he revealed to her that he collects baby clothes and has like a whole room already set up for when he has a baby. He doesn't have a baby, he just wants to be a dad really really bad, and he's already started planning everything, including

baby names and so on. And she was like, that's a little strange, and she didn't want to call him back. But a lot of people texting in at seven eight five to nine two say, it's not weird at all. Oh, here's the thing, being excited about parenthood awesome. Revealing on the first date that you have all of these things already planned out totally strange. Yeah, that'd be like, as a woman, you have some weird bridal like collection that you've been hoarding and you bring it with you on

a first date. We actually got a text from someone at seven eight five and nine two said I am a woman and I have baby clothes and all that kind of stuff, but I wouldn't bring it up on a first date. So that's I guess that's the weird part. Remember, if you want to do a second dight up date, I have to do is email the show and we will call the person who didn't call you back
