Second date of today, we got an email from one of our listeners name Michelle. She says her date was going pretty normal until it ended extremely weird, and now she doesn't know what to think. She didn't get into specifically what was weird about the ending, but I'm assuming probably towards the end of the night the conversation went to the Mount owen Moa. What what did you just say? That's a big flightless bird that once roam New Zealand. At least that's where my mind goes when I'm on
a weird date, the now owen Moa. Is that what happened Michelle? Talking about birds? No, not birds exactly, but Jeffrey is so obsessed with birds, like everything, not just any bird. It's the Mount o Moa. It's just all awkward. You got to give it credit. Okay, Sorry, Michelle, but we all learned something just now, So that's good. Was your date weirder and ending than that was? It was
definitely strange and I'm not really sure what happened. Well, before we get to what was weird, what's the guy's name? His name is Dylan? Okay, and where'd you meet Dylan? I meant him on a dating app. What stood out about him? He seemed really fit. Yeah, like seemed like he was like an active guy and like you know, in like good shape, not like beefy or anything. But you say that in Jose's just really jealous that I'm sorry.
It has nothing to do with your date. So, I mean it's kind of important because you're attracted off people's look right away, you know, the only thing that I also noticed that I was attracted to other than his apps, which we're we're looking at. He was texting like really funny and he said, oh, you know, this is where I'm going to drop a corny line, and then he sent me a bunch of corn emoji. So what did
you guys end up doing on your date? Um, we just met at like a local casual bar just to like talk over a beer had protein powder in it. So you guys are both the whole time. No, not that right. So how did it go? Oh, it was just kind of a normal date. You know, we're just hanging out talking about normal stuff, Okay, And I mean during it, because you can always tell whether or not you even want to go out with this person again, how are you feeling? Yeah, I mean He seemed like
a really nice guy. It seemed like we had some stuff in common. I like rock climbing, like going to the bouldering gym, and he had also done some of that, so we were bonding over that and that was really cool. So right, Yeah, I mean, I guess I was interested in him for sure. So when did the date get weird?
So we were just sitting there talking and hanging out, and then all of a sudden, he looked at his watch and he made this weird face and then so that he had to go, that he forgot he had something important to do, and he's so sorry, and then just like got up and left. Did he have a smart watch where he was reading text messages on his watch? No, No, that would make sense. He just had like a regular old watch. It's like, oh, this is the time I'm to turn into a pumpkin. I must rush exactly, Like,
are you awareabole or what's happening here? That's weird that he would schedule something in the middle of a date too. Yeah, I didn't even know if he had something actually scheduled. He didn't really explain or say anything. And we hadn't even hung out an hour you know, so none of this made sense. So did you? I mean, do you feel like it was something about you that all of a sudden he was repulsed by and he had to run from the bar? Oh? Yeah, that's immediately where Brooks's
mind goes that there's clearly something wrong with you. Michelle. No, we were vibing, so I don't I don't think so. The only thing that came to my mind was that he had another date. Oh that he like double booked himself. Yeah, maybe at Dude with chiseled abs. Yeah, that's what happened. Yeah, it's not bitter over here at all. Don't worry go with the chubby guy. He would never ditch it night exactly. And he wants to eat. Yeah, he's gonna stay hilarious. So, Michelle,
have you reached out to him after your date? Yeah? I texted him a couple of times, just saying like, hey, is everything good? And he wrote me back and said like, everything's all good. But you know, I asked if we wanted to try and meet up again and have like a more proper date, and he never brought me back. He never wrote back. Yeah. Yeah, I mean he's obviously not into you, but who knows why, what are you
talking about? Why? He's obviously not into you. But you know what, I guess we'll try and get a date from your Sadly, what side points? Did he likes you? I mean, I'm not trying to be a jerk, but that's just the reality of dating. Wow, okay, Michelle, I think you're wonderful by the way. You're wonderful and you're you're amazing at dating. And what we're gonna do right here is we're gonna call Dylan and we're going to find out all the amazing reasons that he should go
out with you again. Oh yeah, we're also going to discover why he doesn't like you. So come on, you're good with that, right, We're going to change our attitude, play a song, and come back and get your second date of it? All right, totally thank you. If you're just tuning in for the second date update, we're talking to Michelle right now. She went out with a guy named Dylan, and Dylan's handsome, he's fit, he's funny, he's charming. Dylan. Oh wait is this me? No? Oh sorry, I'm looking
at my bio on the radio website. That's my bad. No, that is so cute. No, Dylan's weird. Dylan's a weirdo. Other than being super toned and having nice abs, we have absolutely nothing in common. But apparently him and Michelle went out to a bar. They had a few drinks together, and at one point Dylan checked his watch and looked surprised and suddenly told her that he had to go. No explanation beyond that, and so she's been having a hard time reaching him ever since. Then, Michelle, are you
ready for this? I'm ready for this. Yeah, you better be, because I'm gonna tell you he's gonna drop the hammer. I don't know. I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding. I don't know. But I know that you've been racking your brain because there's not a woman alive that doesn't overanalyze every second of a date. Oh can you think of anything you said that would make him feel like he had to run? Well, I'm just saying, like, did she
bring up marriage? She dropped the elbomb? Where are you at? No, we didn't talk about any kind of like past relationships. We only talked about positive things. But I don't know, like maybe has like a medication he forgot to take. I really have no idea. All right, I like that. Let's blame him for once. Yes, let's try that. All right. Well, we're gonna call Dylan now and we're going to figure out once and for all what his deal is. Okay, yeah, great, Okay,
I'm gonna Dallas phone number right now. Here we go. Hello, Hi, can I speak to Dylan please? This is he Hey, this is young Jeffrey from brook and Jeffrey in the morning. How are you? I'm doing fine, Howard? How are you? I'm wonderful. Thank you for asking me that. It's nice Dylan. No one ever asks. They don't. There's like a bunch of people on the phone there with you. Yeah. Yeah, this is my radio cohorts. That's what I say, co hosts. We're a radio show, Dylan. So there's a couple of
us in the room. Yeah, and there's like people listening besides me, And Okay, I don't think I have time to explain to you how listening and how radio works. The reason that we're calling you is because we're doing something called a second date update. Oh okay, can we talk to you about your dating life right now? Um? Okay, I'm taking that as yes, not all of it, just one date? Yeah, okay, specifically with a girl you went
out with recently named Michelle. Oh yeah Michelle. I remember Michelle. Okay, then why aren't you calling her back? Dylan? Oh? I mean I intend to. I really think she's pretty cool. Actually, I've I've kind of got a plan in the works. Okay, So yeah, I just have to wait till later tonight. You know I didn't late. Okay, what's going on? Are you in a relationship and you're planning to break up with your girlfriend tonight and then you're going to call
Michelle back for the second date? What can you? Spoke a little bit too quickly there, Brooke? So why can't you just call her now? Why do you have to wait? No? Um, it's just important. I have to wait till six o'clock. Why are you all about time? Man? That is so weird. She told us on the date that you like looked at your clock and you're like, I gotta go, and you ran out of the date. Oh she told you that? Yeah,
I mean obviously left a pretty big impression. When you think things are going well and then suddenly your date ditches you. I mean I was having a really great time. Um, so why would you run away? No, it's not I didn't run away, It's just I had to end the date there at that time. Why, because we had reached fifty six minutes? Oh my god? That why fifty six minute is such a random number. No, no, no, it's actually very specific. So there's this really cutting edge article
in this mental health magazine. Oh no, and it says that the optimum time for like the peak enjoyment of a first date is fifty seven minutes. So if I set my watch and at fifty six minutes, I know I need to wrap it up, and then you know, that'll increase the chances for a second day and a third day. Hold on, the article says, oh, you're optimal time for a first day to fifty seven minutes. You looked a minute early. No no, no, I set it for one minute, shy, so I could wrap things up,
you know, and then leave right at the peak. Why didn't you set it for like fifty minutes so that you could have had like seven minutes to casually wrap things rather than sprinting out. Well, are you guys even saying why don't you just go with the flow? On a date and just feel the mood of everything and then realize, Okay, now it's time for this to be
over like a normal human being. No, no, no, I mean studies have proven your chances of the date going poorly increase by sevenfold after fifteen minutes from the fifty seven minute marks. So if I tried to like offend it a little bit or anything, I would have probably lost track of time. And then it's like, you know that X Y axis just starts plumbing, Dylan, I understand that there's studies. Is there any studies on how your chances decrease with a woman if you just ditch her suddenly?
I mean I didn't ditch her suddenly. Like I said, I had a really wonderful time, but I have to go or something right, And then you haven't been calling. No, no, no, guys, guys, guys, guys. No, Like I have to wait until six pm tonight because linked to that fifty seven minute first state experience is a locked in seventy five hour waiting period and that is the optimum time to call and then ask for a second date. Oh God, dude, why don't you just
talk to her right now? Oh? Seriously, this is exhaust No, I mean that's not like part of the plan. Well, I'm throwing a wrench into your plan because Michelle is actually on the phone listening. She wants to talk to you. Yeah, I Dylan, what how weird? I didn't know you were on the song. This is not good for the plan, Dylan. Forget the plan. Just talk to her. I'm not playing games. And this whole thing that you just came up with,
the whole plan is it is just like strange. Yeah, I mean, I mean I didn't come up with it, like a lot of top notch people researched it and wrote it up in the Men's Health magazine. So I mean, I cool, But you couldn't, like day, You couldn't explain something at the end of the date. You just kind of wanted to like use me as bait. No, no, no, no, no, It's just I really liked you, and you know, I've had some dates where we just tried to see how the date would go and they didn't end well. So
I mean I read this feels very manipulative to me. WHOA, he walked away from you, Michelle because he likes you? Yeah? Does that make sense? For sure? Michelle. I'm understanding what he's saying, and I yet that the intention was good and positive, but this feels it just feels very juvenile to me. I think it feels juvenile because you're talking with me like six and a half hours before like the optimum time, and I was gonna call you, and so it's like I think it's having like adverse effects
science like on the whole plan. Oh my god, wow, Yeah, we threw off the time continuing with this call. Yeah, it was working. She wants to see him. She called us to call him exactly. Yeah, that is true. But now that I know that it was all a big calculated plan, I don't know. Man, that feels just weird. It feels like you're gonna be playing games the entire time, our entire relationship. Again, it's gonna be okay. Well I
don't want to. I don't want you to pitch a vacation, but we have to wait forty five days and then we can't kiss until two thirty four on the four and a half date. Like, I think what she's say in Dylan is that it's really sweet that you really wanted things to go well, but maybe just be more relaxed. Oh so you mean like follow the play in but just be a little relaxed with it. No, I could call her at six o five and seven, Dylan, Dylan, you need to take the plan, print it out, set
it on fire, throat in the trash. Yeah, okay, she doesn't want your plan. She just wants you to be you exactly. Oh can you do that? That is a great ask, Dylan. That is what people are looking for in the dating world. Okay, but just so that everybody knows her finding out about the plan wasn't in the plan shocking, So it's like a contingency. That's just we know. Well, how about we make a new plan where we'll send you guys out on a date and we'll pay for that date if you guys see Oh yeah, is that
a good plan, Dylan? I mean I think I can get down with that plan. Okay, look at that. Look he's flexible. See Michelle's FLEXI Well, he's willing to go with the flow. Yeah, and don't forget about the six pack abs. With all those things together, Michelle, are you willing to go out on a second date with him? We'll pay for it. I will go on a second date under my circumstance. Boo. She's coming up with a plan. Now we meet at twelve forty three on a flat day, Dylan,
she sees, She sees you. You're perfect for each other. I don't know about this, but I'll give it a try. Congratulations, Michelle, you got a successful second date update. Thank you. I don't know if there's going to be a third, but we'll see how the second one goes. Broke and Jeffrey in the morning,
