Second Date Update: Show Me The Baby

Second date of day. We have a listener who sent us an email asking for a second date, and these are her words. She said, it's tough being on the dating apps as a single mom, trying to find time to go out and also meet a guy who's open to the idea. But recently, I think I finally found someone who's actually worth it.

Oh, let's fix it for what's wrong?

Whoy?

Didn't you know he's not calling me that.

That's all right, that's why we got your bat.

It's not good, but that's what we're here for. We'll talk to Eve about it. Eve, Welcome to the show.

Hi, thanks for having me.

Oh my gosh, I can't wait to hear about this guy. What makes you think that he's finally worth it?

Okay, So, like you said, I am a single mom. It's been hard to date. So when I do find somebody that I connect with, it's really nice because you know, it's worth it's worth a night out, it's worth a night sinner, it's worth getting dressed up for in that kind of thing.

The babysitter, I know.

I mean, there's so much that goes into like just even my husband and I going on a date. You know, the planning and the babysitters and then the canceling.

Like I can't imagine.

Do you cancel on your own husband?

Okay, you the babysitters always kids.

Oh I see, well that makes a little bit more sense. So you met him on the dating apps. Tell us how the date went.

I thought the date went great. Reggie picked me up and to a salsa bar, like a dancing salsa bar.

Oh, that's a like a little sexy date.

That's fun, like salsa or like dancing like the culture.

Okay, no one eats just salsa.

That's just saying that there's a business opportunity there for somebody who wants to jump in and take it.

Actually there I just heard about recently, I would.

Okay, so a dancing date.

Yeah, so, you know, we we danced and we had a drink and it was really loud, but like it was really fun.

Was he really good at dancing?

Like my roommate got into salsa for a while and I would go to bars with her and the people who were into it were unbelievable.

Dances would go to Latin dance night and that was the funnest time. But there's people on.

The floor so good that are throwing each other.

So what level were you at? Oh?

Uh, you know, we were the level where we were doing our best and having.

Bad that's perfect. I wondered, if you're on the same page.

How far did he toss you across the room? How many people?

Thank, not very far to go to the bathroom here?

All right, it's so fun.

That sounds like a great night.

Sounds like you're connecting.

Yeah, yeah, we had such a great time. But you know those kinds of places, like they're really loud and it's hard to talk. So we went to another place after that where we could just talk and like get to know each other.

Oh what about.

Well, it sounds like this guy put a lot of thought into the day, you know, like he knew you're a busy single mom, that you needed to be treated and you.

Just need to have fun, even if even if you don't like him at least.

Yeah, totally. And like I really liked Reggy because he was a really good listener. You know, like a lot of guys these days, they only talk about themselves, like they don't ask any questions. So like talking with Reggie was great, and like I learned about him and his family, and it was just really nice to sit down and connect with someone.

Is he a single dad too.

No, he's not a single dad.

Oh he's a married dad.

No, No, no, he's he's not married, of course, and he doesn't have any kids. But he does know that I have a daughter, obviously, I'm very upfront with that.

Okay, Well, that that all sounds great, at least on the surface. How did it end?

I think it ended great. Like he drove me back to my place and I didn't invite him up, of course, but I did give him a kiss tonight and then I went inside and I haven't heard from him since.

So can you think of any reason why that would be.

I've been going over in my head and like, the only thing that I can think of is, like, he's a decent looking guy. He's personable, Like I had a lot of fun with him, and like he probably has a lot of options, you know, like when you're on dating app, you're looking at so many people and you have a bunch of options in front of you, but.

You're the best options. What's wrong with him?

Everybody does? Yeah, I knew, I do know how that feels to get that.

So, uh, what what.

To get the you know, great guy. You know, lots of options available to you. Yeah, he's perfect, you know you're yeah, like being like the guy in that position with all these great options, doing all these great things, oppressing all of these women.

I thought you were getting turned out the other guy.

It's just more believable the way it's.

Are like, it's okay, yeah, okay, Well now I don't even want to help, so just drop it, forget it all right. If you say the nice thing to end this call, then go ahead.

I'm actually really excited to call this guy. I think we can fix it.

Well, she's a jerk who's not calling you back, so I don't think he's quite that decent. We're gonna find out. I would have called you back as like a good gentleman. But we'll see what his excuse is. That's okay, don't make excuses for him. We'll see what he has to say when we come back and do your second date update right after this. Hold on on this show. We love single moms. Yeah, our number one single mom is

I know she'd probably out on another night out with her friends again, you know, just moving on.

I told her that she would feel comfortable calling us for help like Eve did the bar.

You want to do an update with Alexis.

If she ever needs it. But today we're stepping in to help our listener, Eve, and if nothing else, maybe get some answers from this Reggie guy, because I am single. Moms deserve better, and Alexis, I hope your mother knows that I feel that way.

Okay, I'm done nudging my mom on the day.

I'm just saying, we're always there for Barb. Yeah, Barber, if you're listening, we're here for you. But Instagram, I would love.

A new segment Barb's problem.

Yeah, but sorry, this brings us back to Eve.

Eve.

We're here for you today, Okay. One hundred per cent.

I think this is going to turn out great.

I think that there's either some sort of scheduling thing and maybe he's intimidated that you're like a strong independent woman, you know something they could be fixed.

Yeah, I'm sure it's gonna be something super fun like that.

Positive.

Yeah, he's he's intimidated by what a great woman you are. It happen, Yeah, I'm with Brook. Maybe we call him and he's like, there's no other day can get better than that. I sure hope. So let's call him right now and see what he has to say.

If he picks up, here we go, Hello, Hey, is this Reggie?

Yes, Hello, Reggie quiet talker, Hi, Reggie.

Hello, Sorry, there's more than one of us.

Yeah, you're on a radio show right now called Brook and Jeffrey in the Morning, and we are not too happy with you right now, Reggie.

Reggie, you sound like a pretty stand up guy. Jeffrey, you don't need to come in so hard.

He's said, Hello, and you got stand up guy from Hello.

Oh, he took a woman out on a beautiful date. Put some energy into it.

The reason why some of us are not happy with you is because you went out with one of our listeners named Eve a wonderful single mother, and afterwards you have the audacity to not call her. I don't know why. My co hosts are laughing at that idea. It's kind of rude if you ask me.

Wait, you why are so mad?

Yes, emailed for help because this might be shocking to you. But she had a nice time the other night.

I mean, something's weird with her. I think she's like a scammer or a liar.

Okay, I'll tell you. Normally, if someone sole something, they wouldn't call a radio show to reach out to that person.

For you, Yeah, I'm kind of surprised.

Okay, it sounds like you planned a great night with her.

She told me it's hard for her because she's a single mom.

Yeah.

Right.

Sitters are expensive. She can't afford it. So trying to be a gentleman here, I offer, you know what if I pay for the sitter and then you can come.

Oh good move.

I brought that up. I didn't want to put that in the air, but that's a really.

I think my husband would be Okay if I was in a dating app, if we could get.

Somebody, you're even more of a gentleman brother. Okay, I'm kind of apologizing now for coming on so hard to.

Chow at the beginning.

Feel that's that's a that's a good move. I would admit it for kids. Okay.

Yeah. So the night of the date, I show up, she comes down. I have them on her one hundred bucks. Everything's okay. You know. Afterwards, I drop her back off at her apartment. She goes inside. Yeah, I'm driving down. I realized she left her doggy bag or left over food in my car. Okay, come back, go to the doors apartment. Knock on the door. There was another resident there, so I told the person there, Hey, So I went out with a woman, a mom who lives here in

Okay? What they say?

She says, I know Eve, but she's not a mom. What And I'm like, well, what do you mean? She told me she had a three year old daughter. I thought she had a babysitter. I paid for the babysitter. She's like, no, she has a roommate with no kids.

What way.

I mean as an apartment complex, there could be two Eve's. It's not like it's a super common name.

I mean it had to be the same Eve because she said that she just saw her come back.

My neighbors don't know I have pets, and I don't lie about a kid.

Clearly, we need to get to the bottom of what's going out. Some sort of confusion is going on, and I need to tell you, Reggie. Eve is actually on the phone already listening to this conversation.

What are you talking about?

Yeah, that's how this works.

Come in so pleasant. That was a pretty big accusation.

What's going on?

Okay, I am so sorry.

Second, are you not a single mom?

I mean that's why I didn't bring up my daughter's name, Like, don't have a daughter.

Empathy for you?

Like we had a whole discussion about how hard it was for single mom.

I came at him so hard at the beginning of this. Why would you lie about that?

Who wants to be a single mom on a dating app?

Yeah?

That doesn't help you, does Eve explain?

I guess so the money, Like I have a roommate. We will just like we will just say it sometimes on dates, you know, like it's a game we.

Play just slips out, you have a pretend one hundred dollars, sorry, charge more, get out of here.

But that's why I think actually a hundred bucks is perfect because I would totally fall for this.

You're not going to ask for pictures of the kids, Okay? Can we stop trying to make her scam better to get her even more money? I just means, maybe, don't be that for a second.

Terrible.

See, why would you call us if the whole thing was a lie?

Because she actually liked him? Watch?

Well, yeah I did like him.

Oh what's your plan to like go out with Reggie like five ten more times until you eventually reveal Oh, by the way, I'm not actually a mother of any children. And by the way, thank you for the thousand dollars in babysitting that she paid for all of our dates.

Stop messed up.

Yeah that's so messed up.

Yeah, like you're ruining it for actual single moms who want to date these good guys. Like now they're going to be like all skeptical and jaded.

And I'm skeptical if Alexis' mom is really a mom at this point, how do you even know?

We don't I know she would ask you for babysity money for someone to watch alexusca.

Oh my god, that sucks.

I mean there are some girls who just take the money before a date and don't actually go out with the guys, but like I do.

Okay, well, yeah, you're right, you're totally a good person. Then you at least wait until after.

The date longer.

A real mom would say, if other girls jumped off a bridge, would you jump off one too?

It's fair? I mean, yeah, the whole point of this call was to reach out to Reggie to see if you wanted to go out with you one more time. But first I think Reggie probably needs an apology from you Eve, and probably his his money back.

Yeah.

Do you want to say anything to Reggie?

I do, Reggie, I'm really sorry. I don't have the money right now, but I will repay you eventually.

After she goes on a date with another guy who pays one hundred dollars for the gift card.

I wish you guys wouldna be so harsh on me, Like I really am trying here, Like.

Why did you scaned us too?

Man?

I mean, I didn't know it was gonna be busted on the radio, So.

You're only sad and upset when you get caught.

It's like such a cheater, and it's like what I was gonna tell you. Yes, Reggie, I mean she's apologized and offered to at least pay the money back when she gets it. Do you have anything you want to say to her?

Yeah, I'm putting her on blast. I'm putting this all over my Instagram. I got stream shots of your phone going off. I want other people to know not to get scammed by you.

I don't know.

That feels icky too.

So are you saying, Reggie that you are open to dating girl or are you done? Because remember, we will pay for that next date and the babysitter fee too if it costs.

A zero dollars. If you don't actually have a kid.

That's exactly what we'll do. So we always offer to send you guys out.

I'll watch your pretend baby, Reggie. Thanks darn god, you could have made a lot of money as a couple. You know, you never knew how the scam would work out.

When you're marry.

Yeah, yeah, you could have had like three more pretend kids, got four, Eve. I mean, has this taught you a lesson? You're going to change your ways going forward.

Maybe I don't know. I should talk to my roommates.

I don't know. This scam isn't as tight as we thought. It's brooking Jeffrey in the morning.

Brooking Jeffrey in the morning.

This is a good lesson for any guy out there who's going out with a single mom. You need to say, show me the baby. Oh really, you're a mom, just supposed to believe you.

Tell you there's not a mom out there that wouldn't immediately show a picture of.

This that's normally naturally honestly.

Or just even see their lock screen. Their lock screen is going to be a picture of their children. It is.

I mean, I've heard of catfish on the dating apps before, but baby fishing is definitely a new one.

Man still can't believe she was so confident that her like scam worked that she called us.

I mean, how many dating scams do we not even know about? That happened on this show right under our nose. People lying about something that we never uncover. I don't know. Thankfully, this guy randomly figured it out by trying to bring his date or leftovers and was outed for that, and that was just the universe.

Maybe that's why all those other radio shows asked the little kids.

To come on and talk for their mommy. Yeah, you can to the background because.

You got to prove it.

You got prove it.

But you don't have to prove anything to us. We'll take you at your word for the most parts. We really are just email the show. We'll call anybody who is in calling you back, and go check out all of our podcasts wherever you get yours at Broken Jeffrey
