Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's Brook and Jeffery in the morning. And I don't
know if you've been to your local community center and
participated in the activities they offer.

Speaker 2 (00:06):
I have.

Speaker 1 (00:07):
Yeah, then Brooke knows many of them have classes they
have like beginner yoga, intermediate swords swallowing what I signed
up for that one twice. But today we call a
guy who's an instructor for a pickleball clinic, Taylor. He's
going to be teaching at a new community center. They're
very excited to have him and feature his catchy new

(00:31):
nickname that has everybody wanting to sign up for classes
in your phone. Tap right now. Hello, Hey there, Jimmy.

Speaker 2 (00:45):
Right, yeah, this is Jimmy.

Speaker 1 (00:49):
This is Terry from the rec center.

Speaker 2 (00:52):
Terry from the rec Center. Oh hey, how's it going.

Speaker 1 (00:54):
It's great. I know you and I haven't met, but
I'm just confirming your slow this Saturday for teaching the
beginner pickleball clinic.

Speaker 2 (01:04):
Oh yeah, I'll be there. I'll be there for sure.
Not my first rodeo. I've been teaching for a while. Now.

Speaker 1 (01:09):
Oh, super, you're funny, I am. Well, yeah, you just
have a way about you. I love it. Okay, Yeah, So,
AnyWho we just got the final flyer back and send
it out to our email list, and not shockingly, the
class filled up immediately.

Speaker 2 (01:30):
All right, well that's really great news. I had no
idea you guys even promoted it.

Speaker 1 (01:35):
Uh huh, no problem. Paddle daddy.

Speaker 2 (01:39):
Huh excuse me?

Speaker 1 (01:41):
Oh, that's the title that's on the flyer, paddle daddy,
pickleball for divorced dads and flirty singles.

Speaker 2 (01:49):
Excuse me? Hey, you guys named the fly or that?

Speaker 1 (01:55):
Yeah, it really pops.

Speaker 2 (01:56):
Right.

Speaker 1 (01:58):
We wanted something with a little sizzle, and we got it.

Speaker 2 (02:02):
Well, I wish that you guys would have maybe let
me know what you guys were gonna call it. I'm
not really a paddle daddy, what.

Speaker 1 (02:12):
Of course you are. I've seen your photos.

Speaker 2 (02:16):
You've seen my pictures? What?

Speaker 1 (02:18):
Oh, I sure have? And your paddle dad from top
to bottom? And how did you see who took on
the bottom? JK?

Speaker 2 (02:26):
Who showed you my pictures? You've seen my Instagram.

Speaker 1 (02:29):
They're just circling around the rec center. Everybody's seeing them.

Speaker 2 (02:34):
I just thought I was teaching a beginner's clinic.

Speaker 1 (02:37):
Well that's exactly what you're doing, silly. Well, I guess
there is more of a social vibe. We got some music,
some flirty drills, some light partner stretching.

Speaker 2 (02:50):
Yeah. No, I just want to teach the pickleball and
be out of there. I'm not interested.

Speaker 1 (02:54):
Well you will you teach the pickle ball. We do
all that stuff, maybe somebody gets paddled.

Speaker 2 (02:59):
No, No, we're gonna keep it professional, brother, We're gonna
keep it professional.

Speaker 1 (03:04):
Look, the sign up sheet is full, so obviously what
we're doing is working.

Speaker 2 (03:09):
It's not working for me though.

Speaker 1 (03:11):
It is though. We even got a guy named Trent
who said he's gonna drive in from three cities over
and he just got out of something great. If you
get my drift, Are you catching what I'm saying?

Speaker 2 (03:25):
I don't think I am, and I'm not doing no
like divorce dad mixing over here.

Speaker 1 (03:29):
Okay, hey, hey, now, no shame in the paddle game.
Paddle Daddy.

Speaker 2 (03:34):
Stop calling me paddle daddy. I'm married.

Speaker 1 (03:36):
Oh okayle Daddy's got columbs. Listen. That's even better. Stability
is sexy.

Speaker 2 (03:43):
Verry, Seriously, you gotta stop doing this because I'm starting
to feel like I shouldn't even take the new gig,
and I'm starting to get uncomfortable.

Speaker 1 (03:50):
No, you can't. You can't back out. Jimmy. We even
sold separate meet and greets with the paddle dad after
the lesson, I prosecco.

Speaker 2 (04:00):
Man, what are you doing. You're like selling one on
one meet ups with me. I just want to teach pickleball.
That's it. You are nothing more.

Speaker 1 (04:08):
You're doing it the peddal daddy way.

Speaker 2 (04:10):
No, there's no paddle daddy. I just cheach pickleball. I'm
not your daddy. I'm not any of the single divorced
people's dad.

Speaker 1 (04:18):
But everybody's so excited for it. You're first is great.

Speaker 2 (04:21):
But it's becoming inappropriate at this point. Do you understand.

Speaker 1 (04:24):
I hear what you're saying. But your first client is
a guy named Mikey, who says he's known you for
twenty years. He's like, my friend Gode, what Mike, it's you, Mike.
I'm not Mikey. I'm just a radio host named jeff
from Brook and Jeffrey in the Morning. And Mikey set
you up for a phone tab.

Speaker 2 (04:47):
Oh man, Yeah, dude, I'm gonna get it.

Speaker 1 (04:50):
He said you have been getting him that you keep
giving him a hard time because he can't skateboard or something,
so he wanted us to get back at you.

Speaker 2 (04:57):
I was telling him about how nervous I let's just
started it.

Speaker 1 (05:01):
You won't be nervous when you get those Spandex shorts
on and start paddling away.

Speaker 2 (05:06):
Oh man, that's good, that's good.

Speaker 1 (05:09):
It makes me want to sign up for a class.

Speaker 2 (05:11):
Honestly, week up every morning was Boom Taps weekday mornings
on the twenties, Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning
