Second Date Update: Unidentified Family Opportunity

to the show. Thanks for having me. Guy. All right, from your laughter, I can tell the alien thing wasn't your idea. Yeah, yeah, or we're aliens behind that intro? They never know. Yeah, sorry to weird you out, Eric, I don't think you are. Sorry, Oh, no, no problem. I getting aliens exists. Okay, all right, he's very confident about that. But we're gonna shift from the aliens and focus on your date. Unless you went out with an alien, who who'd you go out with? I went out with

a human woman, okay, or so she says. Her name was Carrie actually, and we just met online. Yeah what was special about her? Oh? Well, yeah, we chatted for a few days. I suggested drinks and it was Her response though, was a little like weird to it, Like the night that I suggested, she said she had something going on, but she was like, okay with blowing it off to come hang out with me. Oh she told you that. Yeah, she said it exactly like that, And you know, I was like, okay, as long as not

important or anything. See, I would think that's risky. It feels like you're making yourself too available, like you're too desperate. I would be worried, like what kind of message I'd said, But you liked it. Yeah, I thought, I'll just look at us her being eager, and that made me excited to go hang out with her. Okay, so what did you do for your meet up? Exactly? We met at a bar and when we got there, like we just connected. I thought she was super cute, funny, and it was

refreshing to see it's a nice, normal person. Oh okay, I mean, what do you think she thought of you? I thought it was great, you know, like we were talking for twenty thirty minutes and she was laughing at please and I didn't even think we're funny. So I don't know, it felt to me like she was also with a good time. Okay. When I suggested another round, she said, yeah, of course. It got kind of weird

in the conversation though. We started talking about families and I don't know, this is a weird coincidence came up like she had mentioned that she had this cousin and I knew the cousin that she was talking about. Oh my god, No, it's too serendipitous to just happen by accidents. Did they really know each other from a past or was it alious? She knows his cousin at least that's what Ah? Wait, you know her cousin? Sorry? Yes, yes, I know her cousin. Yeah, we just knew each other

in college. Actually I haven't him and buddy seven or eight years, but we were good buddies at the time. That's good. It's really cool, and I mean it makes for an easy like, oh my god, I'd love to see him. We should all go hang out. Oh well, she told me that actually the plans that she canceled was a family barbecue and that her cousin was gonna be there and so we should go check it out. Now, wow, no, did you go? Then you would meet the entire family on the first date. And that's what I kind of

told her. I was like, Um, isn't that weird for a first date, you know, and she said, no, don't worry about It'd be funny, funny. I mean maybe she's got a super chill family. Yeah. Yeah. So we went left the bar. What was that, Like, is that awkward? Well, I mean I had a cool time. You know. We ended up chatting with the cousin. I ended up chatting with her little brother who's like in high school. Now I'm a teacher, so we talked a lot about classes. Yeah,

that's great. And the family was like friendly, they're polite to me, and they're kind of funny. So like I thought that the whole thing was actually kind of cool. Yeah, I mean this all sounds so positive. Yeah. Did something go wrong? So the way it ended because we had drove there together, but she was with her family, you know. I gave her a hug, said goodbye when it was time for me to like start heading on out there, and she decided to hang back and be with her family,

which makes sense, Yeah, totally. And we talked about seeing each other again, and I thought like, Okay, this is going to be really cool and everything. But she's actually been sort of ghostly me since then. She responded at all. No, not even a single responses. I've been tried to reach out to her, but I can't even think of what it could be. You didn't have any strange interactions with any other family members of hers, because I mean she could have gotten a report like, oh that guy stay clear.

Oh no. And I met some people, but mostly I just kept talking to a little brother and we talked mostly about pol Okay, that sounds healthy and awesome. Are there any like large gaps of time that go unaccounted? Was it daytime when you got there, and then nighttime all of a sudden when you left, probably because barbecue later in the day's ghost The mystery deepens. We're gonna try and explain these unexplainable things when we continue your second date update right after this second let's look at

the facts. Eric went on a first date with a woman named Carrie. Check. Carrie has a cousin who just happened to attend the same college as Eric. Carrie cousin college. That's three c's. You take three C and turn it upside down. Looks like alien footprints to me. I'm sure our listener Eric is seeing the exact same signs as I am, aren't you, Eric, I just I just don't even know what's going on. You and I should meet together and talk about other theories that I have at

a library soon. But first we're gonna call Carrie for you and ask her to explain the unexplainable. O. Thank you, thank you. Yeah, I don't know what was going on? Can I ask you? Eric? Because I mean, good theory, Jeff, But what do you think? I don't know. I think this is a reach, but like maybe there's a world where I like spent too much time apart from hercue like it was a date, you know, it's some sort

of alternate dimension. I know, you mean, like she was jealous of you, vibing with her little bro, or you know, just not giving her enough attention. I'm a date that we're supposed to be going that you know, we didn't think of that. That could be the reason it has a head scratch for me, Man, I like, I really feel like that might be a stretch. I'm still leaning towards aliens are behind date all because I don't want to subscribe to the idea that you're just a bad dater.

But for your benefit, I'm hoping that extraterrestrials are behind this. But let's just call Carrie and get to the bottom of it. All right, here we go, we are, We're gonna pick up this device and try and reach out to carry Let's do it. Hello, Hey, is this Carrie? Um? Yeah, you had to think about that for a second. It sounds like Carrie, what's up. We're a morning radio show called Brooke and Jeffrey in the Morning. Hey, Carrie. Hello, It's okay for you to be skeptical of us. We

get that a lot. But we're doing something on our show, trying to help out one of our listeners who's having a hard time getting a hold of you. That's different. Yeah, yeah, for you, not for us. We do it. I mean honestly, we do it every day. Yeah. There's like literally thousands of these calls, but you're just one of the thousands, and we would like to put you back in touch with a guy that you went on a date with recently named Eric. Oh yeah, um yeah, I don't like

him whom you brought him to your family's barbecue. That's weird. That you would even tell you that, Well, I just I mean it in like you liked him at one point. Yeah. Yeah, Because here's how this works. We talked to Eric before we called you, and we heard about your guys' first date about getting drinks and the strange coincidence that he knew one of your cousins. Yeah, so did you like him then during all that part? I mean I did. I actually thought everything went great at the barbecue and

I was going to hang out with him again. What happened between Everything's going great and we're having a good time together at the barbecue too? I hate him? Okay, I think she didn't say I hate I said I don't like him. That's how that's how it came into mind. Okay, what, well? What changed? Well? Okay, well, everybody in my family liked him, but my younger brother liked him the most. He's a freshman in high school. Yeah, and we heard Eric's a teacher, so it seems like it was easy for him to,

you know, find subjects to connect with your little brother on. Yeah. Maybe a little too easy, because I actually found out the reason you liked him the most is apparently Eric has agreed to write an essay for my brother in his English work class because he's a teacher. What a good guy, A smart move. Is that what your little brother said, because I highly doubt a teacher would do that. Like, maybe your little brother got confused. I don't know how

he got confused, because he was so excited. He's like, I only have to pay him fifty bucks for it. Take kids money. Yeah, willing to help your brother with his academics. And that's a tournaments that poorly that they need to get fifty bucks from a high school kid exactly. And I mean it's a huge essay for like a quarter of his grades. Oh geez, Like what is this guy doing? Like I didn't okay that he didn't even tell me about that conversation. I'm pretty sure that's against

the rule. Believe your brother no matter what. Like, God, that's just wild to me. We didn't hear why would he make that up? Well, I don't know. We didn't hear any of that from Eric, and I feel like we don't know the whole story here. We should probably get the rest of it from Eric himself, who's actually on the other line right now. No way, I carry Oh yeah, Oh, he needs to be called out. If that's a case, Carrie, that's a weird coincidence that he

was just there. Yes, Carrie, Carrie, I hear you, and I'm not saying that you're wrong, but I'm shocked that you're saying what you're saying right now your job. You didn't offer to do my brothers English let paper. Is that what you're saying you didn't he's lying exactly though he's not lying, but like maybe he just didn't share

everything that was going on. I'm talking to your brother at the party, that's not I was talking to him at the party and he was just complaining on about how no one and in the family's helping him, how stressful to classes, and how much you appreciated being to talk to me, you know, being a teacher. He didn't. I only took the fifty bucks because he insisted on being nice and I didn't even take anybody from it. He then mod it to me, but he already paid

you do. He just sent me at random, like notice on Benmo saying, hey, I appreciate the conversation on what's coming up. It's Eric, Eric. I think maybe you should take a breath because you're sounding a little bit defensive and nervous here. You're talking really really fast. Yeah, I just had a really nice thought. Okay, I'm supposed to believe that you didn't ask for the fifty bucks, like, I don't know why he would just spend fifty bucks. And did you send it back to him, And did

you offer to write this paper anyway? Or did you just offer to help him, like like, why would you think you're going to write the paper, because even if you don't get paid for that, that's not ethical, right, Yes, exactly, I only offered to give him some tutoring. I don't know how he phrased it to you. It sounds like he was saying, like someone's going to do is work

for him. But I'm a teacher. I would never do something like that, like he needs to learn, you know, you know, because Zone and the family was supporting him. It's funny that none of this came up when we talked to you the first time. Eric, I didn't even feel like a big deal for me. I forgot a bull about it almost. I want to believe you. I want to believe you the tutoring part. But it's just

like the fifty bucks in Venmo makes it feel different. Yeah, because if he were touring him, wouldn't you talk to his parents and arranging. I mean, I know he's a senior in high school, but like, it sounds like it's not the first time this kid's cheated. Also, i'd like to say yeah without being asked, He's like, I know how this works. Yeah. It seemed to me like he

didn't want anyone else to know. And then I was just doing him a favorite, you know, and I really want to him press obviously you on our date, and so I said, like, Okay, no big deal. Normally I charged two hundred dollars for true right, I actually believe him now really, Yeah, I'm gonna trust him. Well, I thought about it for I'm gonna trust him over a seventeen year old. Yeah. I think Brooks just trying to get the family discount for her kids. I mean, it

doesn't really matter what we think about it. It really just comes down to carry. I think that you should go out with Eric one more time, give him the benefit of the doubt, and we would pay to send you on another date if you're up for it. Um, I might be up for it, But Eric, I feel like you need to do something like apologize to my parents, or like give my brother the money back, clear the air something before again, he's already writing his entire essay

for him. What more do you want? Well, I why you did not do that, Carrie. I had a really good time with you. I'm excited to see you again. Done and done. I'll get that money right back. Good guy, Carrie. So two dates meeting the parents both times. You guys are moving fast in this ship. Good for you. Okay, are you excited? Eric? Yeah? It just might have a cleared up. You know, you don't always connect with everybody go out with. Yeah, that's true. She's kind of a

lame sister. You don't always connect all the dots. But finally we have the answers. It it wasn't Aliens, it was Venmo. Stay tuned for the next unsolved mysteries involved it, though well solved mysteries on Brooke and Jeffrey in the Morning, Broke and Jeffrey in the Morning,
