Speaker 1 (00:01):
When you finally meet someone you really like, how do
you get them to stick around?

Speaker 2 (00:06):
I wouldn't know, Jeff.

Speaker 1 (00:07):
I know brooks preferred method of keeping a man is
an electrified security gate and a very big patwalk.

Speaker 3 (00:20):
And stuff.

Speaker 2 (00:20):
I was trying to use personality.

Speaker 1 (00:21):
That's what I'm doing wrong. Yes, one of our listeners
might be doing it wrong too, And she's considering Brooks
way after what happened when she met a guy at
a house party and he literally escaped mid hookup. Whoa,
You're gonna hear what happened and why she needs to
get in contact with him during a brand new awkward

(00:42):
Tuesday phone call. It's coming up next. It's awkward.

Speaker 4 (00:47):
It's Tuesday.

Speaker 2 (00:49):
It's awkward Tuesday phone call.

Speaker 1 (00:52):
The people in this room are no strangers to romantic
encounters that end in total disaster. Why do you think
I'm bands from three minor league baseball parks, two Wendy's
in the Midwest, and the entire backside of Mount Rushmore.

Speaker 3 (01:09):
Wow, that makes sense, It's okay.

Speaker 1 (01:11):
Well, in my defense, there's less people on the other side.
I didn't think I was going to get caught.

Speaker 3 (01:15):
That't realize they carved the other side.

Speaker 1 (01:18):
Yes, they don't. I think they all have. I was
doing most of the carving back there, but I just
I don't bring all that up just to brag. I
say it because one of our listeners reached out after
she had a bizarre romantic encounter that left her feeling
very confused. So, Danica, before we get into this, have
you been to the backside of Mount Rushmore?

Speaker 5 (01:40):
Figured? Yeah, I'm sure we all have figured out.

Speaker 1 (01:43):
But tell us where did your strange encounter happen?

Speaker 5 (01:47):
So a few friends ended up meaning this really hot guy,
Bennett Bennett.

Speaker 6 (01:53):
Isn't that a great surprise when your friends know somebody
that's hot?

Speaker 1 (01:56):
Yes, seriously surprised for you. Okay, so how did you
and Bennett start hanging out or whatever? You guys did?

Speaker 5 (02:05):
So, we were just playing flip cup vibes are great.
We're just hanging out drinking more. You tried to go upstairs?

Speaker 3 (02:11):
Can I pause real quick? You are in high school, right,
I just want to make sure.

Speaker 1 (02:15):
I don't know why would you.

Speaker 3 (02:17):
It's like slip clup is happening. You're going upstairs?

Speaker 1 (02:21):
Never you never eat out of that.

Speaker 6 (02:22):
I know you don't like go to my friend's bedroom
to make out with somebody like that feels like, oh.

Speaker 3 (02:27):
Yeah, thing to do.

Speaker 1 (02:28):
Why are you going to your own house, Danica? You're
giving off high school vibes to Brook right now? Can
you mature it up a little bit of her bedroom?
Is it that you're going friends or is.

Speaker 2 (02:36):
It your parents bedroom?

Speaker 5 (02:39):
These are all valid, to be fair. It was like
this large multi purpose room. They had a projector and
they're watching them on the spectrum like okay, cute.

Speaker 6 (02:48):
Okay, okay, yeah, all your friends are watching the show together.

Speaker 1 (02:51):
You guys do house parties a lot differently than I
would happen.

Speaker 3 (02:55):
Yeah, slip cup love on the spectrum.

Speaker 1 (02:57):
We're just sure it's pick.

Speaker 2 (02:58):
Your own Adventure party. It is Netflix. In the other room,
we're actually raging.

Speaker 1 (03:03):
Do whatever works for.

Speaker 5 (03:04):
You pretty much.

Speaker 4 (03:06):
Okay, okay, it.

Speaker 1 (03:07):
Sounds so it sounds like, is there a romantic vibe
going on with you and Bennett at the moment?

Speaker 5 (03:12):
Totally? Everything's super flirty. I mentioned, Hey, I'm just gonna
run up to the bathroom, go to the second floor bathroom.
Next thing I know, I open the door and he's
right there. It's kind of like, you know, likes the
look and.

Speaker 2 (03:24):
Is that like perfect like you wanted that, because it
could seem a little eager if you weren't expecting the door.

Speaker 1 (03:31):
But you're like, right here, I'm also in the passenger
seat of your car.

Speaker 5 (03:35):
I mean I was a little bit surprised, but honestly,
I was old the buzz, so I.

Speaker 6 (03:38):
Was into it, okay, And it's a good sign, like
he's trying to find like a private place to have
a quick one on one meeting.

Speaker 1 (03:45):
Yeah, it's a nice way to say it.

Speaker 5 (03:49):
Keep it.

Speaker 1 (03:51):
How did your business meeting in the bathroom go?

Speaker 5 (03:54):
So he comes in and close the bathroom. We start
hooking up in.

Speaker 1 (03:56):
The there's a meeting I was talking about, just like
the meetings we have here at work. I'm sure none
of it sounds awkward.

Speaker 5 (04:05):
Yet, No, it's at one point. So at one point though,
we're hooking up and we could hear people outside in
the hallway and there's people that are like looking.

Speaker 1 (04:12):
For him, like are calling me girl, you know the
door that needs a puke.

Speaker 5 (04:21):
I mean, after what happened, I wish that's what was
going on. You know, I'm kind of laughing right being
like oh hah, like we're caught, we're consending adults making
a bathroom, but his reaction is so different.

Speaker 3 (04:36):
Yeah, what was his reaction?

Speaker 5 (04:39):
He just starts freaking out and he puts his fingers
up to his lips.

Speaker 3 (04:42):
He's like, oh no, oh god.

Speaker 6 (04:45):
I mean, we all think that he's in a relationship
and it's his girlfriend looking for him, right, Like, isn't
that exactly where your mind went?

Speaker 5 (04:52):
I thought he was joking until all of a sudden
he starts panicking and he's like, I gotta get out
of here. But instead of walking out the door, he
opens the bathroom window and climbed out into a tree.

Speaker 2 (05:04):
Wow.

Speaker 6 (05:05):
Wait, you're on the second floor. He's willing to risk falling.

Speaker 2 (05:09):
Out, climbing down anything.

Speaker 1 (05:12):
I was in a frat house and that's a totally
typical way to exit a bathroom.

Speaker 2 (05:16):
Destroyed in there in the bathroom, be like I got
a pee, and then leave to go outside.

Speaker 1 (05:21):
Like, I hate to defend him in this situation, but
there could be an explanation.

Speaker 3 (05:24):
She's not at a frat party, Jeff, Well, it sounds close.

Speaker 1 (05:28):
Yeah, okay, yeah, no, I mean objectively, it's a weird.

Speaker 4 (05:32):
Look.

Speaker 3 (05:33):
Yeah, so he escapes out the bathroom window. Do you
see him again?

Speaker 5 (05:38):
Well, so I walk out of the bathroom because people
are banging on the door. I come out, play dumb.
I'm just like, well, I don't know. I hadn't seen him.
I just came up to pee, go back downstairs, go
to look for him. Nowhere to be found, Like, I
can't find him. He did anywhere?

Speaker 1 (05:51):
Weird out, I wonder.

Speaker 2 (05:53):
So now my problem is, what could it not be?
Like we I now I think it's the girlfriend, Like,
what could the excuse? Maybe he does all someone.

Speaker 6 (06:00):
You have to be gossiping with your friends who are
most in the party at this point, right, Like what
did they say? Oh?

Speaker 5 (06:05):
I'm like, vibe the roun. I'm leaving the party. Twenty
minutes later, I get a text from my friend being like, oh,
you missed it. Some dude just fell out of a
tree outside the party.

Speaker 3 (06:15):
Who I bet it was still in the tree.

Speaker 1 (06:18):
He was up there.

Speaker 5 (06:19):
He was in the freaking tree the whole time.

Speaker 1 (06:22):
What was waiting for you to come around and help
him down? Or waiting for you to go back into
the bathroom and let him back in through the windows
so you could continue what you start?

Speaker 3 (06:29):
You guys are heartless? Is he okay?

Speaker 1 (06:32):
Who cares?

Speaker 5 (06:34):
I wish I knew. I got his number from my
friend to text him and see if he was okay,
No answering completely ghosted.

Speaker 1 (06:40):
Maybe he broke his hands on the phone.

Speaker 6 (06:44):
That's easier, you know, you run the risk that this
guy doesn't even remember you, like if he was drunk
enough to fall out of a window and hang in
a tree.

Speaker 2 (06:53):
Like that's the point.

Speaker 1 (06:55):
So this is an awkward Tuesday phone call. You've called
us seeking some sort of ice in this situation? What
are you hoping to do with your call?

Speaker 5 (07:02):
Here? I tell all of it, like what was that?
Why did he just dip and just climb on this tree?
How come he hasn't been returning my calls? And like
are we going to see each other again? I kin't
want to know all the about.

Speaker 1 (07:14):
And is he okay? From his car?

Speaker 3 (07:19):
From anyone?

Speaker 1 (07:19):
That's point number four. We'll get to it, maybe five,
but we'll think of some good advice to give you
before we come back and let you do your awkward
Tuesday phone call right after this. It's awkward.

Speaker 4 (07:30):
It's Tuesday.

Speaker 2 (07:31):
It's awkward Tuesday phone call.

Speaker 1 (07:35):
Some hookups and with a little kiss, snack and a
polite request to sign an NDA, but others and with
a grown man scrambling out of a bathroom window like
a raccoon escaping one of Brook's backyard barbecues.

Speaker 6 (07:53):
They don't get away from the food, they don't get
away the as.

Speaker 2 (07:58):
Yeah, get the joke.

Speaker 1 (08:00):
That's what happened to one of our listeners, Danica, after
she had a little bathroom rendezvous during a house party.
But when the guy's friends came knocking on the door
looking for him, he panicked and climbed out the second
story window into the tree.

Speaker 6 (08:16):
Yeah, and then later after she left the party, fell
out of said treats like that is so important to
this story.

Speaker 2 (08:23):
He became the talk of the.

Speaker 1 (08:24):
Party, kind of totally. The weird part, though, is now
that she's been texting him, every text has gone unanswered,
so she doesn't know if he's okay, why he tried
to escape out the window.

Speaker 6 (08:36):
I think it's weird that all of her friends said
that he's single, because I thought for sure he is
escaping because he was in a relationship.

Speaker 1 (08:43):
That's why she needs our help getting those answers. And
if this goes well, Danica, you said you would still
be interested in hanging out with Bennett again.

Speaker 5 (08:52):
Oh no, No, what happened and he still feels the
same way. I would love to.

Speaker 1 (08:55):
Okay, yeah, well, maybe Brooke has some good advice for you. Brook.

Speaker 3 (08:58):
What do you think I mean?

Speaker 6 (08:59):
I think that's key is that you need to come
at this fun and flirty, not accusatory.

Speaker 3 (09:04):
Do you see what I'm saying?

Speaker 6 (09:06):
Example for her, Well, it's like, oh my god, I
heard and you were the talk of the party, Like
wasn't that wild?

Speaker 3 (09:12):
You know, like make it fun, like you want to
be part of the story.

Speaker 2 (09:15):
What happened? Yes?

Speaker 1 (09:16):
You?

Speaker 3 (09:17):
Why did you leave me?

Speaker 7 (09:18):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (09:20):
You just got to be careful on that one.

Speaker 1 (09:21):
Okay, keep keep it light and flirty. Jose what do
you think?

Speaker 5 (09:24):
Well?

Speaker 2 (09:25):
I like your advice because I think to keep it fun,
light and flirty. You should tell them some tree jokes
to a mili lighten the mood, right, Like was that
party crazy? Especially when you had to make like a
tree and leaf?

Speaker 1 (09:38):
Okay, turn it into a little open mic night on
the awkward Tuesday?

Speaker 6 (09:42):
Are you?

Speaker 2 (09:42):
And that'll keep it light and flirty, just like Brook said.

Speaker 3 (09:44):
And maybe not give you a second d.

Speaker 5 (09:47):
I don't want to kill a mood.

Speaker 2 (09:49):
You're making a mood.

Speaker 1 (09:50):
What do you mean, maybe you lead with the flirtatiousness,
and you sprinkle in the humor. And if you're in
a panic and you need to help yourself out there,
that's your advice. You can use it however you feel fit.
But we're ready to help you. We're gonna step away
and let you make your awkward Tuesday phone call.

Speaker 5 (10:08):
Oh my gosh.

Speaker 6 (10:09):
Okay, hopefully he picks up, but he remembers you.

Speaker 1 (10:14):
That's what I'm.

Speaker 2 (10:17):
That would be devastating like this. Oh my gosh.

Speaker 1 (10:20):
All right, let's not waste any more time. I'm dialing
it right now.

Speaker 4 (10:29):
Hello.

Speaker 5 (10:31):
Hey, is it Bennet?

Speaker 4 (10:34):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (10:35):
Hey, Donne. Is Nica from the house party last week? Oh? Yeah,
Alice's friend. We met went to the second floor bathroom. Okay,

(10:56):
I just want to want to I heard you fell
out of a tree. Are you okay?

Speaker 4 (11:05):
I'm okay. I was a little embarrassed, but I'm okay.
What's up? I kind of need to get going.

Speaker 5 (11:17):
Well, I'm relieved you're okay. I just I don't know.
I texted you that night just to see how you were.

Speaker 4 (11:24):
And yeah, I got your text. I don't know what
to say.

Speaker 5 (11:29):
Sorry, Okay, I mean it's kind of weird. Like avoiding
me after all that stuff we did in the bathroom.
I thought we were having a good time.

Speaker 4 (11:39):
Yeah. Yeah, if you're seeing.

Speaker 5 (11:41):
Someone else, I mean, like, I get it, I probably
would want to get caught either.

Speaker 7 (11:45):
No, no, no, no, I I just didn't want to
have happened what happened the last time when I was
doing something when I was drunk. I just didn't want
that to happen.

Speaker 5 (11:55):
Again the last time. What does that mean?

Speaker 4 (12:00):
My friends always do this to me when I drink.
They find me doing something crazy or stupid or dumb,
and then they film it and they share it to
group chats, and then somehow my mom always finds it
somehow okay, somebody in it or something, and then she

(12:21):
winds up sending all of those videos to my whole
extended family. It's so embarrassing.

Speaker 5 (12:29):
Yeah, I mean, I guess that's totally weird and a reason.
Are you drinking right now?

Speaker 1 (12:37):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (12:38):
I mean I had a couple of beers. It's about it, Okay,
So you and I had a couple of shots of whiskey.

Speaker 5 (12:46):
Anything else?

Speaker 4 (12:48):
Well, you know, I took a couple of hits too,
so cool.

Speaker 5 (12:53):
Well, sounds like a party.

Speaker 2 (12:59):
Finish jealous. What did you?

Speaker 1 (13:01):
Oh god, what's going on?

Speaker 3 (13:04):
I think you're going to understand even if we tell you.

Speaker 2 (13:07):
Yeah, b we're asking the same question.

Speaker 5 (13:09):
I think I would like to know.

Speaker 1 (13:10):
I don't know if you who knows if you're going
to remember this conversation, Bennett. But you're on the radio
right now with a show called Brook and Jeffrey in
the Morning.

Speaker 4 (13:18):
Yeah kidding me. Oh my god, my mom listens to
these stations. She's going to hear this crap.

Speaker 3 (13:26):
Why so concerned about your mother?

Speaker 4 (13:29):
Why do you think I'm drinking?

Speaker 1 (13:32):
So you and Jeffrey have.

Speaker 3 (13:33):
More in common than I realized.

Speaker 1 (13:35):
Been there, bro, Yeah, okay, this is a segment that
we do. I don't know, man, No, it's okay. It's
called the Awkward Tuesday phone call. Danica is a listener
to our show, and she was really worried about you
after you climbed out the window at that party.

Speaker 4 (13:50):
Well, the whole plan backfired on me anyway, because somebody
got a video of me falling out of the damn tree.

Speaker 1 (13:58):
That's the whole thing you're trying to avoid getting filmed.

Speaker 4 (14:01):
And somebody leaked that video to my mom and I
both got out there Oh, I.

Speaker 6 (14:08):
Don't know if I was, if I would feel better
or worse about this whole situation.

Speaker 5 (14:12):
Why I would take the cheating at this point rather
than the mom.

Speaker 1 (14:17):
Exactly?

Speaker 5 (14:17):
Why are they trying to out you?

Speaker 4 (14:19):
Like?

Speaker 5 (14:19):
Why it is weird of fan like.

Speaker 6 (14:21):
At any point, were you actually interested or attracted to her?

Speaker 4 (14:25):
Sure? I would love to, but I don't know if
I can go out with anybody because my mom grounded me.

Speaker 1 (14:31):
After I saw the video. You got grounded?

Speaker 2 (14:33):
Didn't we say? We're not in high school?

Speaker 6 (14:35):
I told you this was a valid question at the
beginning of this call, Bennett, Are you an adult man?

Speaker 4 (14:41):
You know I am an adult man. I've got a job.
I lived with my mother and unfortunately she controls a
lot of stuff in my life.

Speaker 3 (14:50):
Oh okay, it was one of those parents under my roof.

Speaker 1 (14:54):
This is making sense. Why you don't want the videos
leaked out because there's a lot on the line for you.

Speaker 4 (14:59):
You guys, I have absolutely no idea how much she
gives me a breakfast.

Speaker 2 (15:04):
Ever the day, well, she.

Speaker 1 (15:07):
Probably saw the video of him falling out of the
tree late that night, so I brought it up the pancakes.

Speaker 2 (15:13):
She's like, sit down, we need.

Speaker 6 (15:14):
To talk, and I don't know if Danica, after she
got her answers, is still interested in this.

Speaker 5 (15:19):
Yeah, you know what, I may have been drinking more
than I thought that night. Yeah, I can handle someone
having to live at home. I get it. Time to test.
But I'm sorry. You asked him how he felt about
me and he said sure.

Speaker 1 (15:32):
Yes, No, Well that's the alcohol talking, by the way. Yeah,
and his mother.

Speaker 3 (15:40):
Again, there's a lot of red flags.

Speaker 1 (15:42):
Here, okay, well.

Speaker 6 (15:44):
More than there was somehow even at the party.

Speaker 5 (15:48):
Giving me a lot of clarity.

Speaker 1 (15:49):
Yeah, but I think Danica. The good news is we
found out that Bennett is okay after his fall. That
must make you feel good.

Speaker 5 (15:57):
Have you heard anything he said?

Speaker 2 (16:01):
Do you think about it?

Speaker 1 (16:02):
I meant physically he's on the horn.

Speaker 4 (16:04):
Hey, you know I'm on the phone. I can hear
what you guys are saying about me.

Speaker 2 (16:08):
You know, we have a headache.

Speaker 6 (16:10):
Well, he's drunk so much booze. It sounds like you
maybe need to lay off the party in a little
bit there.

Speaker 4 (16:18):
Yeah, I'm not getting any younger. What's your name?

Speaker 6 (16:22):
No, no, my name's Alexis.

Speaker 1 (16:26):
You said to be flirty, but I thought dan was
supposed to be the flirty one that's you a him.
You know, I guess Danica. You got your answers that
you were looking to get from Bennett, at least most
of them. We didn't get to the final one about
the possibility of you and Bennett reconnecting in the future.
That's for a future. Awkward to stay phone call. We'll

(16:48):
call you back when you wake up from your nap. Okay, Bennett,
how do you know it's almost nap time?

Speaker 4 (16:52):
You guys got cameras.

Speaker 5 (16:56):
I can pick him.

Speaker 3 (16:57):
Wow, freaking Jeffrey in the morning.
