Second date up to date. Over the years, we've had people with all sorts of interesting professions call in for a second date update. Oh yeah, for sure. And we've had a few former pro athletes, a movie stunt man, and one time we got a junior level auditor at an accounting firm. I mean that was interesting to me. Most numbers, well most because my parents do all my taxes, so I don't know anything about that stuff. It's fascinating.

But today's phone call is pretty special because we have someone on the line who says they have one of our jobs. And that's a professional stand up comedian, just like joke each other. His name is Harold, So please welcome to the stage. Harold. How I'm going? Everybody? Is that a fake accent? Is that part of your stick? Harold? Fake? Ain't nothing fake about me but my finger nails I got on? Okay, all right, I like this guy. Alright, Harold,

it's gonna take my job. Thanks for being with us. Man. So, um, before we get into your date, first, tell us about the girl that she met. What's her name? Oh? Her name was Ashley? Okay, how'd you meet her? I met her through this date nap, But you know that's a whole another chick kaboodle. Yeah, you never know how boring you are until you start feeling out that darn thing. I tell you, seriously, I feel like this is a setup, the whole thing for his next joke. I'm telling you though.

But you know what, as I was feeling it out, I kid, you're not I realize. Hey, wait a minute, there's millions. I'm talking billions of people out here who's not dating me. What the heck is their problem? Yeah? I feel you, man, I feel that way all the time. I'm like, how came I only have two thousand people dating me? Where are my millions? So? Did she hit you up? Is she the one that reached out to you? The profile? Well? Yeah, I feel it. I mean, you know,

I just want to meet somebody nice. You get into a relationship, YEA, a serious relationship. To me, it's like freaking a marathon. It's all stupid. Huh. I thought you wanted to be in a relationship. Well, I'm just saying I wouldn't mind being in one, but for the most part, you got to go through all this foolish Just okay, can we just focus maybe a little bit. I'm really enjoying your perspective on life, Harold. But can we can

we get to your date with with Ashley? Yeah? But I just very you want to know how I came about doing all of this? Well, okay, we get the idea. You met her online, So yeah, exactly did you do with her? I mean we went out to go e Too this restaurant and Carol, how was the conversation between you and Ashley? Because it's like this one. Yeah, I may I may know why she's not calling you back day. I'll tell ya. I's gonna make her smile and laugh

throughout this whole evening. Are you saying that you ran a comedy bit on her? Yeah, well I'm not really a comedy bit. I just told her through things that I believe ben Like, for instance, I told her, I said, you know what, Ashley? She said what, Harold? I said, you know you're like a jellyfish? Yeah, jelly fish? And I said, your body's rudimentally and I'm just I'm scared to get near it. That was what they call a

Harroldism body. This is where did she laugh? She chuffled out to all get out and then and then I followed it up with. I said, you know what, Ashley? She said, oh what, Harold? I said, you know, relationships are the darkish thing. They're ninety percent of trying to figure out where we're gonna go eat at. Harold isn't here. I really I do appreciate, though you re enacting Ashley answering your questions, because I really feel like I'm there. Can we get back just to the date again? Well,

how do you think your chemistry was? Do you feel a connection there? I did? I mean I was getting ready to walk her up to her door after we concluded a nice little dinner and walk around the lake. But I was telling her what I thought about doing. I'm sort of glad I didn't. She was like, well, what's that I told her? I said, I was going to wear a parachute tonight. Are just hear me out? I don't know why I was gonna wear it, but I find that it was going to start off a conversation.

Wait a minute, we didn't have a bunch of joke. Wait, hold on for curveball and that you told me you were gonna wear a parachute. And when she asked why, you didn't have an answer? Right? I showed it here in my trunk. I said, if I got here and I didn't feel my mojo and I didn't feel like myself, I was gonna craft on this here in parachute and walk in this her restaurant. There was actually a parachute there. Okay, that's what he said. He said he on an actual

parachute in the back of his trump. I thought, it's figuring parachute. You never know when a good parachute joke it's gonna come up, so you but think about it. Somebody was gonna have to ask me. She was going to have to say, now, Harold, why are you wearing this here parachute? But she didn't say that. Well, I didn't wear but I'm telling you, I feel good about myself and I had mymojo. Okay, Well, I feel like I've gotten a pretty good idea. It sounds like you

guys had a lot of chemistry. Maybe let's pass forward to the end of the day, how to the night and with you and I'd like to get to the very finish. What's the last thing that happened. I'll tell you what now, and I'll be very forthright with you. For the first time when I went there. I went in for that they're little kiss and I was ready embraced this, you know, like how they show on television, just alone, drawn out, faint while you were warried. Mary short,

my god, is nothing happening? I mean, heck, but I tell you, I mean. I said, thank you, ma'am, and and I walked about four feet and I turned around and I said, you know, if you want, you can call me c beb bet. I said, yes, it stands for coffee bean, and then she says coffee bean. And I walked another two steps to my car and I turned around and I did a thrust. I said, yes, because not grind. So fine, there we go. I told her, just like next of all, house, I'm good to the

last drop. Wow. Well, that sounds like a pretty great time, Jeff. And in your in your mind when you look back on the day, don't ask you don't think I should moment that could have gone? Okay, All right, okay, let's let's play a song and we'll come back and then we'll try and get you your second date up date. All right, CB, no good, I got a whole plethor of a short you guys about all right? All right,

We're gonna take a short intermission. We'll be back with more of right after this second if you're just joining us for the second date update. We've been talking with one of our listeners named Harold about his first date with a woman named Ashley. Now, Harold is a stand up comedian, and he went into a lot of detail about their night. But here are the main points that I took away. Okay, they went to a restaurant, he

drove her home. Yes, he pulled a parachute out from the trunk of his car, and he even got a short peck at her doorstep, even though he was kind of hoping for a longer, sloppier kiss. Yeah, you are seeing the very end. What's the very end? The CBE the coffee being Well, he has a nickname. He lets to go by CBE, which is short for coffee bean because he grinds so fine. Yeah. Yeah, I feel like he is a really important last end being shot of

his date. One thing was abundantly clear to me, though, and that's that he had a really nice time with Ashley, and he's bummed that she's not calling him back. Now, Harold, about ready to make your phone call here? How you feeling. I'm just so approving of you guys doing this here

for me. I mean, I wouldn't job an the other day and man, I saw this couple holding hands and I just started thinking about this little filly, and I'm like, oh man, this makes me hopeful that one day I can find the right person that hate that couple just as bad as for me. Well, I'm just hoping it's gonna be Ashley. That's what I was feeling for. You can roast people together. I hope that for you too. Harold, Yeah, Harold, we didn't hear. I mean, have you reached out to

Ashley and she hasn't called you back? Why? There are a couple of Texas and I even called, but I got nothing. Okay, So you reach out to her, okay, Texas. Well, maybe we'll have better luck here because I'm ready to dial her number and we're gonna try and get your second day up. Day. You ready to do this, man, Yeah, let's go for it. Remember, I feel have to say this, wait until it's your turn to talk, Jeffrey. I'll handle it from a beginning. I'll call you in when I

think you should talk to her. Okay, I tell you guys. That might be a little tough to do, because hell, I've got a lot of haroldisms. I need to get rid of it. Okay, trying to get you another date, Harold, So just damp in the Haroldism a little bit. Okay, let me try and get some answers from her. Alright, alright, alrighty, Okay, here we go. I'm in a dollar number right now. Hello, Hi, I'm looking for Ashley. Who is this? Hi, ash My name is jeff from the radio show Brooke and Jeffrey

in the Morning. Who did you say this was the on side? Okay, we're a morning radio show. Okay, We're called Brooke and Jeffrey in the Morning, and we're reaching out to you today because we heard that you love comedy. I'm sorry, what is this about, though, I'm confused. Well, we're a comedy radio show, and we have a friend of our show who also does comedy than your friend. I held it might be. I don't know. I'm okay, thank you, hold on, hold on, I'm sorry. I am

fascinated to hear your side of the night. Like he told us about your date and what we're doing here. It's called a second date. Update. We're trying to help Harold understand what went wrong during your first date, because, believe it or not, he doesn't know. Yeah. Wow, that's amazing that he doesn't. I'm yeah, yeah, so what is your help? Yeah, because we all understand that Harold is a one of a kind type of characters. Yeah, he sure is. You know, so is there something about him

or about the date that was a problem for you? Well, you know, to be honest, um, some part of it was fun because he's a comedians of his jokes or even a little bit's fun. Okay, but some of them I don't even have a punch. Fine, you know, like I just I just looked at him. Yeah, you know, he just talks a lot. Yeah, I'm not sure what you mean. But I mean, did he ever take a

second to like ask you questions? No, that's the thing, and that's the thing that made me kind of go like, yeah, he's not going to work because for me, the number one thing I need is a phenomenal lit Well. I mean, sometimes people talk a lot when they're really nervous because they're out with someone that they like. Yeah, but that's okay, Okay, I get it. Did a glass of water, you know, like, take a second. I understand how you're feeling that. Maybe

you don't know if there's a bond there. But I don't know if Harold would necessarily agree with you on everything. You know, he probably would make a joke about it, or trying to. I mean, there may not be a punchline. Did he try? He sounds like a sweetheart in his own way? Does he? How long can you last for that? A day, a week? No, I wouldn't even give it

five minute. Maybe just give it five more minutes because I need to let you know that Harold is on the other line listening, and he does want to talk to you right now. I'm here. He has not spoken an entire one word this entire time. Harold, are you there? It's been hard, I must say, Oh, but but I just want to clearify something real quick, Ashley. I hope you know when I talked about putting one arm around you, getting my other arm putting it around you and squeezing

you tight and just tackling you, I'll be honest. I was talking about relationships. Then my mind went to football and I just went all that doesn't make any sense. Well, that's what that's what happens when you're in love, Like things don't make sense anymore, things start running together. Can I can? I ask Ashley, was there any jokes that made you laugh of Harold's and you said one of about a pat on time to get I don't want to think about that. I don't think. I don't think

we heard that. I can't discuss that one on the radio, so that's a live one, okay. But I tell you, I mean I would love to spend some more time with you so we can go over a few that was funny. No, no, no, no, Harold, you're missing the point, dude, Are you not listening to her? I'm gonna make the next all about her, That's what I'm trying to tell you. Now, how Harold, how are you gonna make it all about her?

I'm gonna just sit back, relax, putting my feet up, have my get guitar, and just stick along while she's stuffing away. Wait, guitar, that's not let's give a little back background track her to talk over. That wouldn't be able to hear the answers if you play the guitar, Harold, Yeah, I mean, because you put me on the spot that I talked so much. I'm not saying a thing. I'm just gonna listen to you. No, that's not what she wants. That's exactly what she wants. She wants a man who

is a very very deep listener. If you're not listening, if you're playing guitar, you can play guitar and listen, Harold, tell it's like a very multi talented person. To tell him, Ashley, tell him exactly what you want right now, Like, just listen to what I say. Ask me questions about me. Don't make me feel like you're testing out the Dolts.
