Second Date Update PODCAST: unBEARably Awkward

guy at a bookstore. I went to a book signing for a cookbooks because I really liked this check could be Palio and I'm really into that right now, Paleo. Is he kind of like a Doocy Jim dude? No, that's what was so weird. That's just what I figured. Like all I had today was bacon Like. I woke up and I ate like bacon. Then I washed my mouth with bacon mouthwash, and then at a bacon sound before I hit the door. Paleo. Remember she made me a Doocy Jim girl. So I don't know that I

dressed your opinion. I'm not. I just I have to be gluten free, so I'd rather just be Paleo because it's way more interesting than gluten free. So you met him at this book signing for this Paleo cookbook. Yes, okay, And so we were talking inline and his name is Mike. And when we left, he asked me for my number and I was like, okay, sure, why not? And so he called me like the next day and he was like, hey, can we make dinner plans? And I said sure, way

didn't go Mike calling the next day and everything. I know that never happens, right, Yeah, So he asked me to pick me out to dinner, and I actually even let him pick me up at my apartment, which hardly ever happens, right. Yeah. You don't want somebody to know where you live if you've only met them, like for a brief moment in times. Yeah, but if the dudes from a bookstore, how bad can it be? And I love My initial reaction is like that's so romantic and

Jubils is you're going to get yourself killed? Yeah? Not safe. I agree with doable because that's how I normally am. Usually the first time you meet somebody, you meet out somewhere, so you're not in the same recommend we trust, no one broke you get me? So how did it go? How did her go? So he picked me up and we start talking in the car on the way to dinner, and I said something. I guess this was stupid to say.

I don't know, like I said, this is the first time I've been with a guy in a long time. Did he smile? Did he suddenly start smiling? Like all right? Why did we even bother with dinner? No? I let just say, like out with a guy, not like with a guy. I don't know like I now, but I hear myself saying, and I'm like, oh, yeah, that might have been that, you know, like he might have knows

what he was thinking about that. He's like, wow, she doesn't even know how the birds and the bees work, so like like what is he thinking, like I was a lesbian and now I'm out with a guy. Or did he address it or did it seem to just kind of go away? No, really say anything. He was just smiling. So I was just really happy when we got to the restaurant. Was dinner good or did you make some more mistakes like oh, this is the first time I've ever been with a carrot at any more

of that kind of stuff happened? No? No, so good. Dinner was great. We were laughing. We were talking, you know, everything was fine and we were having a great time. I thought so, And then at one point something just happened, like out of nowhere, his mood just changed, change changed. How he just wasn't laughing, He wasn't He just like just became like stoic looking all of a sudden. Really, did you say something offensive? I don't think so. I

think at that point we were just talking about bacon. Actually, so funny that you said that earlier. Yeah, just out of the his whole demeanor changed. Yeah, he just got really quiet, wasn't making eye contact with him any anymore, He wasn't smiling. He started looking at his phone a lot, And how was everything at the end of the night. Was he the same way or did it pick back up? Well, I mean when he kept looking at his phone and I just asked him, I was like, we can go

if you want to go. Yeah, what did he say? He was like, yeah, that's great. And so what did you do, Diana? I don't know. I really wish that's why I need your help, but I don't know what I did. Did you, I mean, did you ever ask him like, what's going on? Are you okay? Or I mean I did ask him. I was like, is everything okay? Are you feeling okay? He was like, yeah, I'm fine, and just it was so cold. It was completely different than like the rest of the evening. Yeah, sounds like

you guys had a really not awkward drive home. I mean, but he opened the cardoard for me and like gave me a hug and said good night and walked back to his car. So you at least got a hug. Judging about your story, I was going to guess that he just kicked you out going like yeah, all right, I'll see it. That was a fun date. And you haven't heard anything from him since. No, sounds like he didn't hear anything from him, like halfway through your date.

But all right, well we'll play a song, come back, call him and get your second date update. All right, thank you? Ye hang on rooking Jubil in the morning. It's always really confusing when you're talking to somebody and everything's going well and then all of a sudden the mood changes. Yeah. I goes in this conversation with my dad the other day, this deep conversation. Everything's cool, and

then I slowly reached across and tweaked his nipple. What his whole demeanor just changed For me, perfectly normal, but for him, apparently that was weird. And then he didn't want to talk to me for the rest of the day. Whatever. Most dads love nipple tweaking. The same kind of thing happened to Diana, who's on the phone for a second eight update right now. She went out with a guy named Mike. They were having a great time, and then all of a sudden, in the middle of dinner, his

mood just completely changed. He was on his phone, not paying attention to her. And then she said, well, I guess we can go, and he's like, yeah, we should probably just go, and then he dropped her off at her house and he hasn't been heard from since, so we're about to call him and find out what went wrong. Yeah, I really just don't know what happened. And I just really looked like, you know, figure it out and get some closure with it. I don't have any guesses for

you on this one. Like he seemed like such a gentleman leading up to it. He picked you up, he opened doors, that's the thing. He was a gentleman when we were leaving too. He dropped me off. He gave out. He was very sweet. I don't get it. I just don't get it. You didn't tweak his nipple or anything. Not my collection, though. I'm gonna dial his phone of her right now, get him on the phone and get your second day up date. Are you ready? Yes? Kind

of Hello? Can I speak to Mike please? Yeah? Him? Hey, Mike, how are you? This is Jewel from Brook and Jewel in the Morning. What from the radio show? Yeah, Mike? Are you a listener to the show? I think I may have heard you for like a brief second, but then I turned the station roll quick. I'm sweet. Thanks Mike. Well, we actually got an email from somebody who listens to

our show a lot more than you have. Her name is Diana, and you recently went out on a date with her, and she wanted me to call you to find out why you're not calling her back. Oh all right, that's pretty weird, Yeste. It's a segment we do on our show all the time, called the second date Update. If you'd listened for more than two seconds, you would have known that, Mike. So, Diana is confused why you're not calling her back? Because I didn't want to go

out on a second day. There, we've got that out of the way. But what we're wondering is is there a certain reason did she do anything wrong or did you just not phil vibe? It was just I don't know, it just it was just kind of like an uncomfortable date. I just didn't feel like we had any chemistry. And yeah, do you mind if I recap what she told us and then you tell me if it's correct. Yeah, go

for it. Okay. She said that you guys met at a bookstore and then you went out for dinner, and when you were at dinner, everything was going great until like the middle of the date, and then you just kind of shut off and stopped talking to her. She said that, Yeah, I mean she was the one that stopped talking. What do you see she stopped talking to me.

That was not what her story was at all. According to her, you stopped talking and the whole time she was like trying to get you to open up again, and you were on your phone and then the date ended. I was there, and she's definitely the one that stopped talking to me. Like, I don't know, maybe it was something that I said that made her feel uncomfortable. I really don't know what she said that. You guys are

just talking about bacon, and then things got weird. We were talking about day in, but that wasn't the topic that made the date uncomfortable. That wasn't what started the bad vibes. Okay, what was it did? Yeah, well, whenever I go out on dates, like I always like to ask, you know, like interesting questions that you know, just kind of make you think, you know, and also initiate like good conversation. And I asked her what is your greatest fear?

And she said bears? And right after she said bears, the entire vibe changed, the entire vibe. That's when things got really uncomfortable. She was very awkward after that, very easily startled. It was easily started made her frightful. Yeah, I don't know what it was, but like even for example, like the waiter brought her her food and from behind just kind of placed her food down in front of her, and she was startled. Like that startled her a lot.

It was almost as if like a bear delivered the food was like previously attacked by a bear, and she's having flashbacks. All of a sudden, she didn't give me any information, but just she said bear and then she completely checked out. That was pretty much it. Oh my god, Mike, you're lying. What was that, Mike? That is Diana. Diana's on the phone right now. Yeah, I am, And what the hell are you been talking about? So you're denying that you didn't check out when I brought him up

your greatest fear and you said bear, So that didn't happen. No, that didn't happen at all. I was talking the entire time and you checked out completely. Then how come whenever I brought up your biggest fear and you said bears, you were staring off into the distance. You weren't even looking at me. You weren't paying attention at all. It's like I didn't even feel like I was on a

date anymore. No, we were talking about bacon, and then all of a sudden, you checked out and started looking at your phone, and you didn't have any eye contact anymore. You checked out, and we're talking about Bacon's here. I'm so confused. Is that the bears are the bacon guys? I don't I honestly don't know, but I feel like she needs to go see a therapist about this bear situation. Now. I don't know why she's denying this right now, but I am one certain that she is terrified of bears

or the word bear. I really don't know at this point, Dan, are you scared of bears? Just to clarify, I don't like bears, but you know what, they don't petrify me, and I don't think about them and like a scared and stuff, you know what I mean. It's it sounded like you were screaming at every move that other people made because you thought you were about to be attacked. That is the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. Like

I I'm not scared of bears, all right? Well, I hate to ask an awkward question that might shut everything down. It sounds like that's what we have a problem with here. But Mike, would you like to go out on a second date with Diana? We will pay for it. I don't think that's a great idea. Obviously she's very unaware of her trigger words. Oh my god, what fe Because I'd rather if I go out with you again, I'm going to wear a bear costume. Maybe that might that

might help you get through whatever it is. Yet you experience, well so strange. Mike. Thank you for your time, and I do agree with you. Maybe the bear costume is a good thing. Diana. I'm sorry you did not get a second date. That's okay. Thank you so much for calling and letting me know what happened. I feel so unresolved by all of this. I don't know if it

was a Bacon of the bears, but it's driving me lazy. Listen, Diana, if you need a good counsel to help you with your bears, I got like four that I go to so I can help give her the number. Okay, thank you in the morning text in at seven eight five nine two that says, I've never been so confused in my life. I'm with you. It's brick and jewel in the morning. I think that makes everybody getting lots of text in at seven eight five to nine two saying

what I don't understand what the problem was. We're talking about the second eight update. This girl Diana wanted to call a guy named Mike. They went out to eat. They had dinner, and she says that while they were talking about bacon, because they're Paleo, he just got cold and stopped talking. To her and ended the date. Then we got him on the phone and he says that he likes to ask people on first dates what their biggest fear is because I can tell a lot about

a person. It's interesting. I've never been asking. It's a good question. He says that she said her biggest fear was bears, and then she stopped talking. It kind of looked like she was startled by everything because she's so scared of bears. He said that he thought maybe her trigger word. Yeah, and she does not agree with any of his assessment on what happened. She's like, I wasn't cold at all. I wasn't even thinking about bears after that, And he's like, yeah, you were. You weren't even talking

to me. You were just looking off in the distancing about being mauled by a bear. And then when the waiter came up, you got startled because you were so scared of bears. And then she's saying, well, I was talking about bacon and you just stopped talking and then into the date. So maybe they both have triggers and they don't even know it, Like bears is her trigger word and bacon is this guy's trigger words. Someone texted in a good question. Were they even on the same date?

All right, and maybe we just got two random people who happened to have gone out with the same names. Somebody else texted in and said, I think the only thing you need to do is go to the restaurant and interview the waiter. I think we do need to take it a step and they'll be like, I don't know. I asked them if they wanted a Caesar salad and they both stopped talking to me. It's very confusing. But if you want to do a second date update, all you have to do is email the show and we

will call the person who didn't call you. Removing ninety two point five
