Second date of to Day. We talk about weird dating trends a lot on our show, and I think it's cool when we hear from listeners who actually try them. Yeah. Like, remember a little while back, we had a couple on this segment that did the Target Date night challenge. Oh yeah, I was supposed to do that with my husband. I never got around to her. Yeah. That's where you buy random stuff from Target and then you have to try and figure out how to make a date out of

those items. It's really yeah, except for the diaper's part in that situation, creative? Or what about the hundred dudes in a hundred hours challenge? Oh I don't. I'm ashamed to admit I only made it to seventy nine. Oh wow before my body gave out. So really disappointed in myself on that one. But one of our listeners says he tried a date night challenge off the internet recently and apparently it went well, but he would like some help from us today. His name's Rick. Rick. How many

dudes did you get through? Did you beat me? No? No? No dudes, man? No? Oh this was it was a different challenge then, what made you? I'm already going through it and you guys are killing me. But before we get to the internet challenge, tell us about the woman that you want us to call. What's her name? How'd you meet her? Her name is Bella. I met her online and this girl was beautiful at least you know, her pictures were that's great. Bella does mean beautiful too, Yeah,

it does. I mean, here's the thing when you saw her? What made you want to do an internet challenge thing? Well, the funny thing was we were trying to figure out a first date, and through the process I was like, wow, this is gonna be awesome because we both thought all of the ideas we had for first dates were like crazy, cliche and stupid. Yeah, okay, so she found this thing and she said at me a link forward. It was like some photo shoot blind date thing. Oh so it's

actually her idea. Yeah, it was totally her idea. It's like people who don't know each other, they can have a photoshoot of their first date done and then that way, like after the date, you can look back at it, like you can like see if the chemistry was there or not, and then if it was a really cool date and like the relationship leads to something. You have this really amazing keepsake of your first date. Okay, the whole photo there's a photographer for a time. There's a

lot of hope in that idea. Yeah, so that so doing the photo shoot is the actual date right exactly? Oh my god, I don't know, man, I get so uncomfortable in photo shoot. It's like, yeah, I think it'd be fine. I know you love being in front of the camera, but not everybody does. It sounds very unique, I will say that. So how did it go? I thought it was going to be awkward. She found a photographer. I went ahead and booked it, and we did this

shoot in the city, and I was crazy nervous. But like when I saw her, she came out in this stunning dress, her hair amazing, Like, I mean, she was beautiful. Like I cannot emphasize that enough. I gotta say genius on her part, because it is such a good reason to make sure that you look like perfect for your date. You can wear whatever you want, whatever looks best on you, and be like, well, that's a photo shoot. Yeah, whatever, what did you wear? I wore a nice suit with

a light purple shirt with a black tie. Yeah, okay, so we were fancy. This was all right. So how was the actual chemistry between you and Bella? I found it to be amazing, Like, you know, as the date went on, we both really kind of relaxed, and I mean there was a moment where like we forgot the photographer was there and we kissed for the first time. You got your first kiss on camera. I did, oh cool. See now you girls think it's cute. I never doubted it. I just like, it's hard for me to be in

front of the camera like that. But have you seen the photos? Yeah? Yeah, Well I have the photos, and that's kind of the problem that I have. She's ghosted me ever since that day. And we were supposed to split the photographer and I have all the pictures, and I have the bill that I had like crazy expensive. I mean she outright agreed to split that with you. When I was buying them online, she was like, yeah, pay for it and or half of it, Like we were going to split it. Okay, did you guys do

anything else? You go grab drinks or anything? Afterwards? Well, we went and we had like there was the street vendors outside or something. Yeah, we like eating each other bacon, rat dogs and stuff. I thought that looks I can't feed each other falafels. Where do you find this photographer? Okay, so you said that you've been trying to text her and she's not answering at all. Yeah, she's totally ghosted her. Wait, have you like texted her like a sample of the

photos because she hasn't even seen him? Right, Yeah, no, I'm not gonna do that. Like, she's got to pay for him if she wants to see him, like, okay, a lot of money. Yeah, you're right. All right, Well I feel for you, man, Let's play a song. We'll come back. We'll call Bella for you, and we're trying to get your second date update. All right, thank you guys. All right second d oh man, Last time I kissed a stranger on camera, I was dressed as a pizza boy, really,

and they paid me. I'm still getting residuals from that. I'm not sure. It's just a fun time. Yeah. One of our listeners Rick, he kissed his date on camera because they hired a professional photographer and did a photo shoot as their first date. Apparently it's part of a new internet dating challenge where you hire a professional photographer and you use that as your date activity. So they took some pictures together around the city, had a great time.

But afterwards, not only is she ignoring his text, she also left him with the bill. Yeah. I was gonna say, this is kind of a rich person trend. Yeah. Yeah, like the target thing was more accessible to everybody when it came to dating idea. Absolutely. Now, Rick, you said you paid a lot of money. You didn't say the exact amount. You said it was expensive. Can you give us a ballpark? Dude? It was well north five hundred dollars. Yeah, yeah,

I was gonna gets eight hundred yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean the thing is, she must have thought you were cute because it was her idea to hire the photographer even though you paid for it. But after the photo shoot, now she's not calling back. I don't know. Maybe the kiss wasn't good, Maybe your clothes weren't fancy enough. Loo,

I have pictures, I have roof. Okay. That's what makes it so frustrating because it's like the financial thing, Yeah, that's one thing, But the relationship part of it, that's that's the part that's really throwing me off. So if she agrees for a second day, or you're going to still hold her to the bill. Yeah, okay, okay, alright, it's gonna be dude. I honestly think you should suck it up. If she's like, look, I do a lot of funny suck it up. Is exactly what they said

when I was the pizza boy. That's so weird. What a flashback. Okay, anyway, let's just make this phone called it Bella and get to the bottom of it. Is you ready to do this? Yeah? All right, here we go. I'm down the number. Now. Hello, Hi? Is this Bella? Yeah, Bella? Did you perhaps order a large pizza du extre meat? I'm sorry? Whoa? I'm sorry? How did that? So? It was good? Okay, I'm sorry, Bella. M Hi, Sorry I got sidetracked. My name's Jeffrey from the radio show Broken

Jeffrey in the Morning. How are you doing? I'm okay. What's going on? We're doing a segment from our show called the Second Date Update. We're reaching out to you because one of our listeners has given us your number. They're trying to get a hold of you. His name is Rick. I know who you're referring to. Um. Okay, I don't really want to talk about that right now. Hold on, Yah, we're just looking for a short answer to help Rick figure out what's going on because he's

really really confused. Rick feels like he went all out for your date. He paid a lot of money, he had a good connection with you, and now he feels like he's been hung out to dry because afterwards you've completely ghosted. Yeah. Look, I really do feel bad about that things just happened. But can you give him an answer? I mean, do you have a why? Like could you imagine being in his place? Like you'd be totally confused?

This guy kisses you, he is apparently attracted to you, and then nothing like just silence, Like nobody wants to be ghosted. It sucks. Yeah, Honestly, the time we had together was great and it was a lot of fun. Um. I did feel a connection with him, but things have changed. What what do you mean? I mean, are you in a relationship? Is that what you're saying? Because I'm sorry.

If I went and did a full photo shoot and I looked so good like he said you did, I would definitely want to see the pictures, and you haven't even seen the pictures yet. I'm just I'm gonna sound like a terrible person if I say this. Well, it's okay, we're all terrible people. Yeah, so we won't judge it. You're a good company. Oh gosh, I actually knew the photographer. He said you. You were the one that recommended the photographers. So that makes sense? Is it? Like a friend? So

he he was my ex? Ah, that's interesting. Why would you do that? I know I was missing him a lot. And oh and when I met Rick, you know, we had the idea of doing something different for a first date. And when the idea came up to do the photo shoot, my brain was just like, what better way to kind of get back at my X? And so you know, I sent Rick the link for his photography page to book him and to try to like make him jealous. Then wait, so your ex even agreed to it because

you had Rick do the booking. Yes, you showed up and your X had no idea it was going to be you until you were there. Right. Oh that, Hey, we're not judging. We're terrible people too, Okay, I mean I know I told you it sounded terrible. I know. So what what did your ex boyfriend say when he saw you show up for the photo shoot. I mean he was jealous. He was definitely holding it together. But I could tell like he just was pissed. I mean, how did it never come out during the day? I

mean you even kiss Rick? I know. So there was one time when like Rick actually went to the bathroom and my ex was just like, how could you do this to me? Like why are you doing this? Yeah? And I just I played dumb and I told him that I didn't know that Rick had booked him. And then I just happened to be acquaintious because I couldn't tell him. Obviously I would sound like I'm crazy. Oh you reason? So you were lying to two men at once, you know. It just it happened all so fast. I

don't know it happened so fast. I mean this thing that you play shoot, that's so wait are you with your X now or what happened there? So after the date, he texted me and we talked and I mean long chat short and we're back together. Those photos going to waste. So you have seen the photos. You can just look at his computer. Yeah, yeah, I mean I actually have seen the photos. I do really look good in them, and I do love them. You've got to pay the

full price. You don't get half. Now, you got to pick up the whole bit that has messed us seriously. It's really low. And the fact that you wouldn't even say anything to Rick, like not even say hey, by the way, I just can't see you anymore. I do feel bad, but I don't know. I didn't want to kind of admit to that. Well. I mean, if you could say one thing to Rick right now, what would

you say? And think about it for one second, because I need to let you know, you actually get to say that Rick is on the other line listening and wants to talk to you. Wait what yea, yep, Ricky there? Oh yeah, So what did you want to say? What do you want to say? Bella, what's your one thing you're gonna say to Rick? Rick? Look, I'm so sorry that you had to hear it. I guess like this.

I didn't mean for any of this to happen. I didn't know how it was gonna You know, what do you mean you didn't know this was going to happen. You plan for this to happen. You send me the lake you are ship in the head. Yeah, and not only do you not have to worry about pan half the bill, but you can tell you a little punk boyfriend that he can eat the god I don't never want to hear from you. You can go drop dead. O little too far, Gosh, I'm sensing that there's still

some sort of connection between them. Wow, it's emotional, fella. You've got to understand he's angry. I mean you definitely passionate. Ye, Rick, I totally get you're angry, but like it was a first date, a photo shoot, and like I mean to wish me to drop dead for something. No it's not, No, it's not a first date. It was a manipulative play. It was nine hundred dollars, so you can make your point. Friends jealous, there was never any shot at it. So

you know what, forget you forget him? I'm out? Oh da. So at this point I would like to ask Bella, will you go am I reading this right to get out on another date with Rick? And here's the great part. None of you have to pay for anything. Will pay for the day, thanks perf for a guy, but definitely no, like why not? Okay, I mean, don't do that again, Bella, Seriously,

what did you learn. I mean, I'm glad that I didn't call him back, honestly, because if we were to go on a second date like the way he just blew up like that, that could have happened later in the releasing. I don't think that that's what you should have learned, Bella. I think there is a bigger, bigger lesson we could have taken it. She got a boyfriend now Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning,
