Speaker 1

Are you single and feeling out of the loop. Put away that mouse and get out of the house. Join in the Loop, Seattle's brand new activities club just for singles. Put in the Loop singles dot Com today looking Jebels second d date. You know, in my experience dating, I've found that there is one surefire way to impress the girl that you're out on a date with. Oh, this is gonna be good, and that is to complain about the bill. Complain to the wait staff, complain to the manager.

Causes scene if you can, because that says a lot about you. It says that you're not gonna take anybody's crap. Nobody's getting over on you. And you know what that says if there's a long term relationship between you guys. If you're willing to stand up for being overcharged for a vodka kran now, you're gonna stand up for something bigger for her in the future. Women love it, we do. When you complain about the bill, you are dialed into us.

And that's what John did his first date, right John, Yeah, sadly, this is a fact. Nicol and Dim in the restaurant. No, No, it's just it was a happy hour and well I thought it was happy hour, and so you know, it's just like the bill twice as much what I was expecting. So I wasn't like trying to be I'm not cheap. I'm not. I was just like trying to get what I was supposed to get your email. Sure sounds like you're cheap, John, Well, no, well I should have written

it differently because it was just that. First of all, I'm a huge fan of you guys. I just have to say that I love the show. And second of all, as a fan of the show, you know that I'm not cheap. I'm a good person. Yeah whatever. Oh no, if you're a fan of the show, you know that you're probably a terrible person. Yeah, and you like the show because it's free, John, free entertainment. But if you went to a bar and the bill was twice what you were expecting, you wouldn't be a little confused. No,

I would be confused. But if I was on a date, I probably wouldn't say anything. I think you can ask without making a scene, Like what happened when the bill came Okay, so the bill shows up, and you know I took the bill because I was gonna pay. It was gonna be a gentleman. And I just opened it and we'd only been there for an hour and a half and it was like, but a lot more than I was expecting to pay. So I just called over the waiter and said, I think there's been a mistake

with the bill. And I knew that I'd screwed up because next thing I know, like the managers there, and then the managers tell me that happy hour ended an hour before I thought. And it's even the explanations too long. Well, the fact that the manager had to come over and everything else makes it seems like a lot bigger of a deal. Is that why you feel like you're not getting a call back today? Well there was one other thing. Oh there's more to it. Okay, yeah, what happened? So

about an hour in things are going real well. So I suggested that we should go get another drink, but at my place, all right, and bold move. I wasn't saying like, let's go to my place to hook up. I was saying, like, let's just go have another drink. I mean, I would hope if you wanted to right there you go. I was hoping that at least admit it John, So did this happen before or after you challenged the bill? This was pre challenging of bill. Okay, so you said let's go back to my place? And

she said what she said? I'm sorry, I don't do that on first day. I mean it was cool. I think everything was going well besides those two things, like we were laughing a lot. Can I ask where you met this girl? We met at at a club. Oh my god, and an hour into the date. There's no way an hour into a day a guy I met at the club is asking me back to his house. No, that wasn't the day I met her. I met her at a club like a week before, and then we went out about a week later. And that's when I

asked her back to my place. Oh, I see, what's her name? By the way, her name is Denise. Denise. Okay, so you said let's go back to my place. She said no, I don't really do it on the first date. And then you said, okay, that's fine. But you know what's not fine, this bill? They overcharged me. That's a good way to make a first impression, John, Well, everybody else went well? Was she noticeably upset after all that stuff?

I could tell that things were off. You know when you're like you feel the vibe like you've lost her. That's how I felt. What did you like about her so much that you want to do a second date update to ask her out again? If you already sort of know why you screwed up. So the thing that was really cool and surprising about her? And I know this is going it's not horrible, but she's gorgeous, like

like model good looking. But she's also like hilarious. And I didn't think that she would be so funny, like when I met her at the club and like she was like making fun of me. I was making fun of her, but like in a fun way. She's really cool. So did she make fun of you after you know, the ask her back and the building? No? And so I think that's where I thought that she was kind of upset about how I reacted. How many times have you tried to get ahold of her since your date?

I have called her three times and you haven't heard anything back. Nothing as you honest, I called three times and I texted about two others. Oh, so you've tried a bunch, so you don't take a hit very well to you. I just really liked this girl. She's really cool. Denise is really cool. I wouldn't do this with just anybody. Okay, So do you want to apologize to her for what you did? Well? I already did apologize when we were

at the restaurant. I apologize like after the manager left, and I mean, I guess I'll apologize again, but really I just want a second chance. Okay, Okay, we'll play a song, come back, call her and get your second date update. All right, cool? Thanks a Hi, guys, looking jubil in the morning date. John is on the phone with us right now. He wants us to call a girl named Denise today because she's not calling him back after they went out. He met her at the club

they went out for a date. He says, part of the reason he thinks he's not getting a call back is because at a certain point during their date, when the bill came, he complained about it because he thought it was still happy hour. When happy hour, it ended so much so that the manager had to come over and they discussed the bill, and he thinks that that was a major turnoff because it got weird after that point.

All right, John, before we called Denise, and you apologize to her for that incident and see if you can get a second date. I think it'd be a good idea. Actually if I call the bar that you went to as well, so that I can apologize to them for your behavior. Would you like me to do that too? Yeah? Why not? Let's do it. Let's just say sorry to everybody that was involved in your horrible date, John, Yeah, yeah, yeah, no bleed. Let's call everyone. Okay. Were you humiliated when

the manager came over to talk to you? Of course, because it was at the end of the date. It was horrible. I just wish it I hadn't even said it. Yeah. That's when you look at it and you're like, all right, whatever, it's like twenty five fifty bucks more than I was planning on spending. Might as well just suck it up. All right? Well, I'm gonna dollar phone ub right now. Get her on the phone and get your second date. Update. Okay, Okay, here we go. Hello. Can I speak to Denise? Please? Hey, Denise?

How are you? This is Jewel from Brook and Jewel in the Morning. Okay, what's going on? I'm calling you because we recently got an email about you from somebody who listens to our show. I'm sorry, what's going on here? I don't understand. It's a segment we do on our show called the Second Date Update. Okay, John asked us to give you a call and find out what went wrong on your date because I guess he's tried to get a hold of you a few times and you

won't call him back. Okay, I'll tell you what John told us, because we talked to him and he says he thinks that you're not calling him back because of a moment at the end of your date when he complained about the bill and like the manager had to come over, and he says he felt really stupid after that point. Oh now he lost to me before that? What did he do before that? I mean, guys, I don't know if I want to talk about this. Was it where he asked if you wanted to go back

to his place and you said no? He told you a lot about our date? Apparently he did. He told us all about it because he's really curious what he did wrong and why you don't want to go out with him again. I wouldn't blame you if you didn't want to go out with him. I'd feel like, an hour into the date and he's asking to go back to his apartment. It sounds like a booty call almost. I mean I didn't even want to be there after the first fifteen seconds of talking. Now on what you

didn't like him that like that soon into the date. Yeah, that doesn't make any sense to me, because you hung out with him for an hour or so still and had drinks with the guy. If you didn't want to be there at all, why didn't you leave earlier? I don't know. I guess I've felt kind of stuck like I needed to keep going through with it. So you were looking forward to it, and then fifteen second con send to the date, he turned you off? Yeah, so

what happened? Um? So I walked into the restaurant and I had butterflies because I was excited to see him again and he was already there. He hit a table for us, and he had pulled out the chair for me. He told me I looked beautiful. He kissed me on the cheek. Wait, we sit down and I asked him, I was like, hey, you know, how's it going? How you been? And he answered, oh god, he says, this is gonna sound bad, but I forgot your name? How did he not know your name? I mean, I don't know.

We had talked for like an hour, and I laughed. I thought he was kidding. Yeah, but he wasn't joking. No, he because, no, I'm serious. And he said, look, how I saved you in my phone. And he showed me his phone and he had saved me in his phone as hot girl from the club. I have done that before too. Yeah, and you'll be like texting with somebody like I have no idea what her name is. I hope she says that at some point. I mean, I don't know any girl that wants to be known as

the hot girl from the club. Yeah. No, I don't think it's that bad of an I mean, yeah, but if the guy's sitting down with you on a date and then has to go, hey, I know we've been talking back and forth, planned this whole date, but I don't know your name at all. He doesn't care about your name. He did. So what did you say to him after you found out he didn't know your name? I don't know. I can't. I felt a little like hot off cars. It's like, oh okay, cool, Well, I'm Denise.

I don't didn't know how to respond. I wanted and be mad. Were you just like disappointed because you really had this crush on this guy and then he didn't even have enough energy to put into knowing your name. Yeah, I was really looking forward to this date and then that's how it starts. And from then on I was like, oh, I guess I'll just order a bunch of drinks and have him paid for it. Girl. Yeah, it's a good way to do it. You didn't care about the bill.

Can you put the tab under Denise please named Denise and all caps. Wouldn't you like to just tell him though, like, Hey, this is why I didn't call you back, was because you didn't know my name. Maybe in the future you should know somebody's name before you got with him. I mean, I just figured maybe that's something he should know. But the good thing is he knows it now because he's actually on the other line listening. Yeah, Denise, I couldn't hear you at the club. It was really loud. That's

why I didn't. I'm so sorry. I swear I just couldn't hear you that night. I was too embarrassed to ask you that night what your name was, and I should just ask then, Yeah, when you put me in your phone and ask me my name and put it in your phone, you don't go an entire week. And then I think it's funny to show me that you've given me the nickname hot girl from the club. Well, I was just trying to be honest until you I thought it was kind of funny. I thought, would you

think it was a compliment? I put you in this hot girl? Just a second? Hot girl? What did you want though? Dease? He's not going to put in very smart intellectual woman first. I mean, it's not like it didn't come up in conversation when we're at the club. We told each other our names, and I mean, I am more than just a person with a body. I don't want to didn't mean it means something about him

that that's all he's thinking about. That he couldn't remember my name from the conversation, but all that he remembered was what my body looked like. Okay, okay, so that's all I knew at that moment about you. I'm really really sorry. And if I had had the chance to put in a different sort of thing after our date, I swear that I would have put in the most amazing woman I've ever met, or the beautiful girl who

I'm lucky to have gone on a date. D that's pouring it on a little thick, don't you think, John? Give him some credit to nice? And then you couple that with everything else that happened that night. Yeah, I guess you're right. A lot of stuff did happen. Everything else was good, John, John, you forgot her name, You yelled at the white stuff about the bill, and then you invited her back to your place an hour into the date and she said, no, Okay, Look, I admit

it wasn't like the best date. That was like incredibly unlucky one. The fact that I misunderstood what time happy hour was, that's just like bad luck. I also I heard her name, I just couldn't like hear it well enough at the club. That's bad luck. The only one that's actually my fault is asking her too soon to go to my plate responsible ate for Denise, Would you like to go out on a second date with John? We'll pay for it. I don't know. Come on, just

give him another shot. Now that he knows your name and he knows not to yell at waiters is to me. I mean, it would be really hard for me to start over on this time. Do you want to give him a shot, though, and see if you can do it. I promise that you'll get to know the real meat, that you'll have a wonderful time. I'll be a total gentleman. I just I think that you should give me another chance. And I'm gonna pay for the date so he can't complain about the bill. That's my job at this point.

We won't even go to a happy hour against my better judgment. Bit, Fine, we'll do it. You'll go out with John again. Yeah, awesome job. God, I can't believe we're celebrating a response like fine, congratulations John, you got a second date. Thank you guys. Denise promise you will not regret it. We'll send you and whatever her name is out again and let me know everything goes okay. Broken Jupil in the morning. H
