How does the show introduce today's Second Date Update segment?
All right, welcome to the official podcast. Thank you so much for being here. Before we get into today's brand new second date podcast, what do we got on comments?
Yeah, well, on yesterday, Brooke Breaks You Up, Big Till commented and said, since you guys do Brooke Breaks You Up, you should start a segment called Alexis Arranges a Date, where callers call in to have Alexis get them set up on a date with somebody they like.
We've done that. Let's lean into more of the alliteration and go Alexis Arranges Annulments. Oh, man. Just find any newlyweds that don't want to be wed anymore. Aren't they talking about Alexis S.U.
What listener suggestion and banter set the tone before the story?
out? Oh, that's not as fun. No. They're talking something else.
But you're right.
That is, yeah. All right.
Good point.
We'll work on it. We'll work on it. Right now, enjoy this episode. It's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.
Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Second date update.
Here's a little secret. When we get emails for this segment, sometimes people like to share their dating journey.
Oh. There's no secret there, Jeff. It's like in the title.
No, I mean more than just like the date that we're talking about. Like I matched with 52 people and I found 51 had dated my stepdad. I see. But that means this one is good to go.
Man, that stepdad. Must be a pro athlete. Well, we need the context to know why they're here.
Exactly. It's helpful in that way. And I was just using that as an example because this segment can obviously get weird. And today our listener Melanie mentioned in her email that she had a bump in the road on her dating journey recently. And she'd be willing to share that with us. So Melanie, I know that the guy that you're emailing about, his name is Scott. But apparently there was a date scheduled before that. Can you tell us that story?
Yeah. So not my best moment. Uh-oh. Yeah. That's right.
We've always had, everyone's had those moments.
So what happened?
So we're meeting at a bar, basically. And then he texts me that he's going to be 15 minutes late. And I'm like, oh, that's not a big deal, whatever. At least he's texting me.
Yeah, gave you a heads up.
More time to take shots beforehand. Go ahead.
Yeah.
I used to do that, though.
I really used to do that.
We can get loose.
And I'm sure that that worked out really well for you guys.
I fit in three.
You're 15 minutes late.
This is your fault. Okay. So what happens?
So he comes up to me. He shakes my hand, like, really awkwardly. And then he says, I forgot my ID at home. So sorry. I'm going to go back and get it. And then he never comes back.
Oh.
Girl, that's not anything to do with you. Yeah, what do you mean not your best moment? That's his bad.
Why are you embarrassed about it?
Well, because obviously he saw me and then didn't want to do the date. Oh, you think it was an excuse.
I hate him, Melanie. You don't listen to him, okay? You're hot. You're beautiful. You deserve someone better than that.
Okay, laying on a little bit thick.
Well, that's messed up, man. It is messed up, though. He shook her hand. He said hi. No, we're not defending him. Yeah.
We're saying good riddance to that last guy. Let's move on to this new guy, Scott. Oh, I thought this is the guy we were calling.
How does Melanie describe the awkward first date that went wrong?
No, he was the last loser.
He blew his shot.
Tell us about this new man.
Well, I took a break from Tinder for like a month because that was just... Yeah, it shook you. I get it. Right, exactly. And so I thought, okay, I'll try again. And that's when I met Scott. Okay. And he asked if we could just go for a walk on our date, which I loved that idea. Yeah. You don't need an ID to go on a walk.
I mean, it sounds kind of cheap to me. That's a free date.
You guys, I mean, you're probably nervous even for a walk at this point because of what had just happened to you.
Yeah. But it was nice. And he was really cute. He gave me a flower, just one. But, you know, we walked a lot all around the city, just talked about all kinds of stuff, hobbies, and both of us like to travel, so we talked a lot about that. Nice. And then it turns out I know one of his roommates, actually.
Oh, really? Okay.
