Speaker 1

You know, a lot of times we do second date update updates to find out what couples have been up to since they agreed to go out again, but rarely, actually never have we ever done one with a pair who said they had no interest in seeing each other for a second time. That's true because it's hard to do an update on something that never happened yet. So that is, until today, we could not believe we got

an email from one particular couple. We'll play the audio for you and then get the brand new update from them right afterwards in your second date update update right now, Rooking Jewels Second date Update. Every guy knows this feeling, walking through the mom, just looking around, doing some shopping, proving out to the music, Maybe gonna head over to pack son and pick up some new flip flops for a vacation you haven't schanduled yet. Who knows, Man, It's crazy.

You have the mom and then you look over there and you're like, oh, hello, is that a lady. There's probably a lot of them at the mall. So you go up and talk to that attractive lady, ask her a question, introduce yourself, tell her she looks beautiful, and she doesn't answer you, so you're like, man, she's playing hard to get, so you just keep talking and you keep talking, and then all of a sudden security comes and grabs you and takes you out of the store

for harassing a mannequin. That happens to me on a lot of occasions, but apparently, in today's second date update, Kendra is on the phone a guy came up and approached her in the mall, and Kendra is not a mannequin. She is a real life female woman. This, Paul would be really awkward if she was. What's up, Kendra? Hi, Yes, it's true, I'm not the Manian nice. Yeah, so your email said that you met the dude you want to call today at the mall. Yeah, that's impressive. That is

like old school style at the mall. Yeah, no online dating. Yeah, so I actually work at the mall. I work at a department store in the perfume section. Oh okay, yeah, yeah, how are you meeting men in the perfume section. Well, it's sort of like a culmination of perfumes and cologns or in the same areas. Okay, I was gonna say, if he's buying perfume, do not believe him that it's

for his mother. Yeah. No. He came out to me and is asking me about like which cologne he should buy and what I'd recommend, and so I was giving him my thoughts on a few different ones and he just he was like, well, what's your favorite one? And oh, that's a line right there that is yeah. Oh yeah. Anytime that I've ever hit on a woman at the mall, that's always what I do, like, well, what shirt do you like best? Do you like the way these fit more? I would just take that as a sign of an

indecisive person. I had no idea. There's usually an arterior motive, but they usually never pick up on it. They're like, well I like that one, but honestly, that one shows a little bit of your love handles for your body frame. I wouldn't wear it, and they're like all right. So he asked you what your favorite one is? Yeah, and I told him and then he's like, great, I'll take that one. So after I rang him up, he was like, so I was wondering if I wear this, will you

go out with me? Oh that's kind of cute. Yeah, that's a good line. And that's when you called him all security, No. I mean I thought it was really cute. And also it's like the fact that he bought it and then asked me out. You know, it's not like he was saying, well, you know, I'm only going to buy this if you go out with me, kind of like you already bought it, which was really it would have been funny if you said no and then he returned it right there. All right, so you guys agreed

to go out. When did you actually have a date, like a few days after that? Okay, we've got dinner and so yeah, it was really nice and he you know, you wore that cologne and he smelled really good. So I mean, obviously you're doing a second date. Update. So you liked the guy? Were you pleasantly surprised though you've known him for two seconds at your job when you're helping him out buy some cologne and now you're at dinner with him. I was surprised at like how awesome

our chemistry was. We had a really great conversation, and I guess I was really tickled that how we kind of played with each other and oh well not physically sickling, but so like with our word you know, just like play jokes back and forth kind of thing. So it was a lighthearted conversation. Yeah. At one point I had gotten a little worried because he started off saying like, hey, you know, um, I know this is the first date, but I think I need to kill him, clean it

out something whoa that? Yeah? And I was like, oh, shoot, like you just come out of prison or like this, Yeah, what what is this? So it's like I have to admit something. I actually was not interested in buying cloth own. I just wanted to talk to you. I knew it. It just sounded like a line to me. So what does that mean? He had been to the department store before and like kind of stocked you a little bit,

and so I don't I don't think so. I mean, I think it's it's more like he was, I don't know, passing by like sometimes like you're walking, you know, through the entrance to get another part, and then I guess you just saw me and then decides that you want to talk to me. That's a compliment. Right When he said that to me, it was it was really I don't know, flattering, because he specifically, you know, played this whole act to get to talk to me and ask

me out. Go back to your date. What happened? So the date was going so well that we actually ended up sharing and for the for me, like, this is something that's never happened before. We started talking a little bit about our future together. What like two of you were just in general, well, okay, so I was talking about my mom and he was like, oh my god,

that's how just like my mom. And then we you know, we started sharing things about our moms and we were like, oh my god, they're so similar, like they would get along so well. And then he was like, yeah, it would be kind of cool if you met my mom. What were you like, I mean, what was your reaction to that? Well, to be honest, it actually it didn't feel weird. It actually felt natural, Like it just felt

comfortable between the two of us. That's the one thing that I could think of, Like maybe he got spooked because we were already talking about a future and he already mentioned like meeting his mom. But but the thing is, I didn't bring that up, you know what I mean, Like that was his thing. He's the one who brought it up. So he scared himself. Yeah, yeah, I guess scared himself, so maybe he read the situation differently than you. Like you're like, oh, this feels normal, and to him

it might have fel awkward. Yeah. I mean that's the only thing that I can possibly think about. How did everything end? Um? He walked me back to my car are and like he just kind of stood there, and I thought he was gonna kiss me. So you know, I was trying to be open, you know, ready to receive. But how did that happen? You just stand there with like your legs and your arms open, like kind of like a gingerbread man. Like, in case this happens, I want you to know my body language. I'm wide open

for it. You sometimes have to be that direct with men. No, I mean like I was just, you know, ready for him to make a move, but then he just gave me a really big hug and then he said call me. I don't think that's bad though. I mean some guys either maybe he missed his moment he felt like, or he doesn't kiss on the first date. Not all guys do. Well, I mean that's what I was thinking at first. But it's been two weeks now and he hasn't responded any of my text. I really wanted this to work out

for you. Yeah, okay, well we'll play a song, come back call him and get your second date update. All right, jubil in the morning if you're just joining us for today's second date update. Kendra is on the phone and today she wants to call a guy named Ryan who is not calling her back. And she really liked Ryan, mostly because they have the same mom. Yeah, that's what she said. They have the same mom, and so she

really liked him and they bonded. They went out to dinner and bonded at dinner talking about their mothers because she was like, my mom's like this, she's crazy lady. And he was like, my mom's exactly the same way. She's crazy La too. We should totally have her mom's meet And I guess they had a really in depth conversation about their families and future and all that stuff.

But that's the reason she thinks she might not be getting a call back from Ryan is because maybe he took it the other way and it seemed like a little too much too soon on their first date. Kindra, are you ready to call your kind of brother? I'm ready to call Ryan? All right? Well, I'm gonna dial his phone number right now, see if we can get him on the phone and find out why he doesn't want to see you again. Okay, it sounds mean like that, why he doesn't want to call you back? All right?

Here we go. Hello, Hi, can I speak to Ryan please? This is him? Hey, what's up Ryan? How are you? This is Jewel from Brook and Jewel in the Morning. It's a radio show. Okay, I didn't. I don't think I entered to winning anything. Is this is about you didn't enter to win anything? No? We do a segment on our show called the second Date Update. Have you

ever heard of that before? No? I haven't. All right, it's where if you go out on a date with somebody and then end up not calling them back after they email us to see if we can get you on the phone and find out why. That's kind of strange. But yeah, and the girl that emailed us about you is named Kendra. Oh she emailed you. Yeah, she emailed us because she said that she had a really good

time with you, but you haven't responded to anything. So she asked us to get you on the phone and see if we could figure out why you don't want to go out with her again. Yeah, I don't really want to talk about it. Wait, so there's a reason. Well, yeah, there's a reason. I mean, I'm not I'm not just some kind of ask blows people off for no reason, Like if I had liked her, I would have called her back. Yeah, and that's why she's confused, because she

thought you liked her. I'm sorry, that's that's just was in the case. I thought you liked her. I mean, the way she described it, it it sounds like you were super into her. I mean I thought I liked her at the start, but by the end of the day that was definitely questioning that. So what changed then? I really don't want to talk about it. Isn't this enough? I haven't I told you enough? No, Actually, you just I've actually piqued our interest more because he said there's

a problem. But now we don't know what it is. Because here's the thing. She wants to know. She's been racking her brains, she's been thinking about you NonStop. I really, she sounds like a really nice person. Can you at least just do her the favor If she really wants to know, you can just tell her that it was it was when we started talking about our families. Don't

know what that means. I don't. Honestly, I don't think she will, because when we talked to her, she said that when you guys started talking about your moms and your families, that was when you both perked up and thought everything was even better. Yeah. No, no, that's when things really took a churn. That was not she okay. She said that you were like our mom should meet. Yeah. At that point I thought everything was going really well. But then she got a little rude about the family thing.

It just shed a little too far, she like, rip on your mom. No. No, Basically, we were talking about family, and we got talking about the holidays, and she sort of made a joke. She said, well, you know, if things work out between us, you're going to spend the holidays at my place. And so I tried to joke back, basically saying, oh, well, next year we'll started at my place.

You know that, like an every other year sort of thing. Yeah, that's actually kind of cute, right, Yeah, it was sort of a cute, too little joke, but all of a sudden she got really serious about it. Whoa, what do you mean? She got serious about it. Well, she refused to even acknowledge this joke and was like, well, no, we're spending it in my place every year or nothing at all. I was like, no, we can switch off every other year. That's the normal way to do things.

So now you're having an argument that people usually have, I don't know, a couple of years into her relationship on a first date exactly. I mean, she got so defensive about it. She's like, I have a huge family and I never missed Christmas, and so you're going to have to compromise and come to my Christmas every single year. I kind of get herself like one of the reasons I love my husband and knew it would work out is because his family does Solstice. They don't even do Christmas.

So I'm like, I own it. Yeah, well, unfortunately my family doesn't do a Solstice or anything. Still, I would be missing my family's Christmas to go to her family every year. It was unreasonable. I mean, you don't think that there's maybe a way you could come to a conclusion later on down the road. No, not at all. There's no reasoning with Kendra. She's basically squatting on Christmas and saying this is my day, It's not yours, it's mine. For the rest of the time, it was absurd still

together to me? Is that bad? Hey? Ryan, I want to let you know that Kendra is actually on the phone listening right now and wants to talk to you. She stop. Yeah she is, Kendra. Say hi, if you're still there, Hi Ryan? Wow? Oh my god? Yeah? So what this whole thing was a setup? Kind of Yeah? Look, Ryan, I told you that Christmas is really important to me. Okay. I remember you saying that, and I just thought it

was ridiculous. Well okay, Well if it's ridiculous, that means that Christmas is not important to you, which means you can spend it at my place. Well that's pretty good point. No, of course Christmas is important to me. That was not even what That was not even what you were saying on this day though. You were saying that Christmas was more important to you than it would ever be to me. Basic. So I never said that. I never said that. You're you're putting words in my mouth. No, that is essentially

what you were saying to me. Ken No, I told you I have a big family. I have never missed Christmas once in my life. Okay, and this is the only time I get to see some of my relatives. And just because I start dating someone, that doesn't mean that, like suddenly I'm going to start missing Christmas. You guys have been on one date. What are you doing? I think I don't have a family too. No, I know

you have a family. We talked about it. Your family can come to my place and stund Christmas with my family, but it's going to be at my house. You already know my family lists far away. It's not even easy for them to get together for Christmas with my own family, let alone your family. Okay, well you know what, Like I mean, some of them already coming from different parts of the country, so they might as well just come over here and all be together. And absurd, Oh my god,

what is happening right now? It's not absurd. I'm telling you your family can come to my place. It'll be great. But like that's it, Like we can compromise and that you'll get to see your family, you'll get to have a Christmas, but it's going to be at my place. You're being so selfish. It's no wonder that you don't have a boyfriend Okay, look who's talking mister. I don't have a girlfriend yet. That's true. You got some common ground there, a single at least, I will say, kedre.

I mean, isn't there like a way like maybe you guys could do Christmas Eve at his place Christmas Morning at your place? There is no compromising on this. I get all of Christmas, including Christmas Eve and Christmas Morning and afternoon. You get all the other holidays, like all of them. I don't care, but I have Christmas. I get Harbor Day, Flag Day. Like no one even celebrates your holidays. I mean like you could do those days

if you wanted to. But I mean, like, come on, like fireworks and the important holiday at those fine, but Christmas is the only important one to me. So you get an important one. I get an important one. Do you guys realize that this is all a hypothetical conversation because you've only been on one date. It's not hypothetical, this is real. I mean, if I promise you, if you just one Christmas, just try it out and come to my place, you will understand what I'm talking about.

You're gonna love it. I mean, your family will love it because it's amazing. It's like I can't even describe. You'll just fall in love with it and then you won't even want to have Christmas any other place. Yeah, that's exactly what you do, isn't it. What do you mean, that's exactly what you want? You really in for one Christmas and then I'm stepped there for the rest of my damn life. No, No, I'm not feeling okay, really, your first one, don't care how good pressure you are

on your own. All the other Christmas you would want to come to my place? Well, you guys have to go out again. Yeah, you're dating already. You realize that, right. I think you guys are married. Actually you don't know it, but you've only been on one date. Ryan, would you like to go out on one more date with Kendra? You guys can have a discussion about this in private if you want, we will pay for a second date. Will you go out with Kendra again? Please? It doesn't

even sound like Kendra wants to go out with me. No. I mean I like you. I think you're great. I just we have this disagreement and if we could just work this one issue out, then I think this relationship could possibly work. Okay, so she is open to going out with you again, Ryan, would you do it? We will pay for a second date. I would consider it, and I will try. It would past all the mean things she's just said, only if she will consider spending

Christmas one time at my family's place. Oh that's a good day, Kendra, just once. Man, Absolutely not never happening. Are you serious? Okay, so good deal. So that's a no, Kendred. You don't want to go out with Ryan again because he wants to spend maybe one Christmas with his family. That is a capital end capital Oh dude, but what if you like fell in love with him and you guys started having your own Christmases. At some point, I

will always be spending Christmas with my family. Ryan, You and your stupid family can go have your little Christmas together. But I'm not going on a second date with you. Sorry. Right, well, I think that's enough for the second date update. I don't know. I don't know what happened, but I think it was a second date update. Yes, I'm not sure, like I was listening to a married couple argue. But Kendra, sorry you didn't get a second date. But at least

I don't care anymore? Okay, cool. Well, one thing the second day update has taught me is I'm even more thankful now than ever before that I don't talk to my family very much. It's broken jewel. And then morning you just heard a very contentious second date update from last year with Kendra and Ryan, and believe it or not, they're actually on the phone with us again. Kendra and Ryan, how are you guys doing well? Good? All right? Yeah, it sounds a lot friendly er. I need to be honest.

When our producers said that you had emailed the show with an update, I thought they were joking. I was like, what's the update. They're still not talking and they still hate each other, but apparently you two had some news that you wanted to share with us. Are you guys together? Yeah, believe it or not? Rough, Yeah, yeah, seriously. Actually after that, I did not have any intention of seeing him again.

I was so angry. Really, I couldn't have picked that up on the phone call at all, that you were angry? She hit it. Well, yeah, To be honest, I did not see us really having a future either. Who though I did. Actually, yeah, would you just text him a middle finger? And then you guys started talking again. No, so okay, Like when you guys played it on the radio, A lot of my friends and family hurt it, and they gave me a really hard time and they were

just like, I don't know what you're doing. You guys have incredible chemistry, and you can't agree on one thing Christmas and basically either just like you made a major mistake. And even my grandma was like, even my grandma was like, if you don't marry him, I will. He really willing to compromise a lot. Yeah, So I reached out to him and I texted him, so are your friends and

family giving you a hard time too? And of course I said yes, And then I told him what my grandma said, and and then I was like, so, do you want to get a drink and laugh about this together? And I would have thought you were setting me up if I were him. Honestly, it became something that we could talk about just the call and how much we

were bothered by our friends and family about it. It was like, and I think we realized what my friends and family had seen and what I saw before Christmas was mentioned, which is that, yeah, we are pretty amazing together and we're really great. So what's the new Christmas custody plan like? And what have you decided on? Oh boy, well, basically what we decided was that it would be a coin toss, you know, fifty fifty. We'd both have even chances every year of having our family slept, all right,

And who's going to be doing the coin toss? I am, I'm going to be the one check checking. It can be one of those fake ones double headed coin. Oh look its heads again my family again. Yeah, we have we have yet to agree upon who's going to toss the coin than I could. Oh, here we go. Hey, look, we don't have time to get into all of this with you guys. We'll let you hash that out on your own. But congratulations for being able to I guess find love. Ye yeah, it was weird. Yeah, well thanks

to her grandma honestly. Yeah. And you know, we do some of these second a update updates with people who were like we hear from them later that they're married and stuff like that. I think you two actually have a chance out of all those people at going the distance because you're already like fifty years married at this point. The way we love you, Yeah, I don't know whether that's a compliment or but I'll take it as it's a compliment. Yeah,
