Speaker 1 (00:01):
Second brooke. If a guy offers to cook for you
on a first date, Yeah, is that a sexy move?
Or are you thinking, Ah, he's trying too hard. I
don't like it. No, I love it? You do? Yeah?
I do? Especially if he can actually cook. Oh yeah, yeah.
He goes into the kitchen and he comes out to
the table with the best hot pocket that you ever

(00:22):
ever taste it. And he's made it look pretty too
by put in a colorful toothpick flag. You marry that?
If he cut it in half? How do I still
put in my mouth on it? We've heard some home
cook meals go very well on this segment, so I'm
not so well. We're going to find out how it

(00:44):
went for one of our listeners named Todd, who said
he cooked for his date the other night and now
he needs our help. Todd, what's up man? Welcome to
the show. Hey, how are you doing? Did you go
with the og ham and cheese? Because that is my
personal Oh yeah, I'll take ham and cheese all day.
That's more of a lunch just for me. Okay, Hey Todd,
can I ask are you a good cook? Because I

(01:05):
think the effort of cooking, whether you're good or bad.
Is is sexy to ladies. But are you like a
chef or something? Now, I wouldn't say I'm a chef.
I have worked in a kitchen before. Okay, I can
cook too, like really really good at towing dishes. That's
pretty much it. But like it works well. I mean
I cook a mean shrimp Alfredo. Okay, are we just

(01:28):
going to talk about his food? Are we talking about
his can we? I do want to just talk about
the culinary side of it, but we should focus on
the girl that you went out with. What's her name?
It was Laurie Laurie and I'm guessing you went with
the shrimp alfredo. Did you talk that up? It's funny
because I met Laurie online and in her bio she
had put like her favorite foods it's seafood, right, Oh nice?

(01:50):
And so you know, you got to have a good
opening line. So actually my opening line was is, hey,
so you like seafood? Just say you know, my shrimp
alfredo is a real catch. God do you like that, Alexis?
I don't like Tribalfredo's on the wrong person. Ask you know,
Alexis just wants a bank statement. That's the first text

(02:10):
and then she'll make a decision from there. You should
have followed up with I'm just being krill with you.
It's possible to overdo it though. Did she like it? Yeah?
I mean she gave a little ll and then we
were texting for like a week. Oh it was really
it was really flirty and really good. And invited her
over to prove it, you know, and she was down. Yeah.

(02:34):
It means a lot, like I feel like when people
go to someone's house on a first date when they
meet on an app. That's why it's so clutch that
you guys chatted for a week before she agreed to
do that. Trust each other a little bit. How did
it go well? I thought it went really well. I
was really nervous because I really liked her. I thought
she was really cute. You know, I did maybe go
a little above him. I lit a lot of candles

(02:55):
in the house, and you know, when she showed up,
she knows just like, oh, are we doing a seance?
And like that she said that hysterical Yeah, it's like
you didn't bring the weigi board. No, no, no wegie board.
I was just like I just thought I was like, oh,
I was just trying to set the atmosphere, you know,

(03:16):
raising the dead. Did she laugh? I mean? Was she cool? No? Yeah,
she was cool, you know, and uh, I had a
fresh garlic bread that I had made garlic bread. Bro
was the food ready when she got there? Did you
guys cook it together? No? No, the way I set
it up, it was basically like halfway done because I
kind of did want to finish cooking the meal, you know,

(03:38):
while she was there. Yeah, but yeah, I mean I yeah.
I served her the food and it was good, and
she said she liked the food. I was like, I said,
I was really nervous. I felt like a thinking back,
I might have been asking about the food too much,
you know when you're like, oh, how it is good,
and then like five minutes later, oh, he tastes the
fresh basil. You know, it's kind of like an a

(04:00):
needy waiter at the minutes like are you sure? Okay,
what do you guys do after dinner? After dinner, we
sat down on the couch for a movie and it
was nice. We weren't necessarily as close as I wanted
to be on the couch, but I thought this was
a first date, you know, when she just screwed over
a little bit. It's your couch. That's kind of awkward though,

(04:22):
once you're sitting and then you move over, you know,
like you have to do it right as the sitting happens.
I like to slowly in show the like every minute
you just slide like a little bit closer until she
doesn't even realize all of a sudden, she's in your arms.
She that's not the movie you went with though, Nah? No,

(04:45):
I mean I was a little nervous, to be honest,
and you know, I sat down first, and she kind
of sat down where she was gonna sit down. Oh yeah,
that's a good call. Yeah, okay, Like she didn't sit
on the opposite end of the couch. But she wasn't
like my last ye work were touching at all? Yeah, no,
we weren't. No, what I mean, how did it end?

(05:05):
How did the night end? Well, when the movie was over, okay,
she stayed for the hard after. She wanted to like
have another glass of wine and talk a little more
about Right after the movie was over, she was like,
I gotta go. Yeah, And I did kind of feel
like there was a little bit of a drop off,
you know, and that like it the light was definitely
over and so she went home. And that's why I'm
talking to you guys. You know, it's just been very

(05:27):
very sporadic communication, the energy that I mean, she's still
kind of texting me, but I just feel like it's
totally different now. I don't know what went wrong. I
mean the food. I know the food was great, but
I was a little nervous. Yeah, your nervous energy maybe
got the best of you. It could just be a
classic case of what a lot of girls admit to,
which is they just wanted a free meal. If a

(05:48):
guy off a free, fresh cooked meal, you don't sit
through a yeah went on too long, like he ate
a bunch of alfredo and you're laying on a couch
for two hours. I'd be like, oh yeah, I mean,
I've heard of being friend zoned before, but chef zone.
Maybe you got put in the chef zone. We'll find
out when we call her and get your second date

(06:10):
update right after this. All right, all right, second Italian food,
fine wine, and sitting ten feet apart from each other
on the couch while watching The Goonies? Did you find
out something about the movie that we didn't know? No?
I made an assumption I wasn't sure that you know,

(06:32):
now that I'm saying it, What would have been a
better move, Todd, as if you'd bought a smaller couch
so that physically couldn't sit that far away from it.
Actually really smart in a two seater. Why they call
him love seats? He just slaps his knee, all right,
plenty of your own. But that's because Todd invited a
woman named Laurie over to his place recently to show

(06:52):
off his cooking skills, which he thought went pretty well.
But after their date, Laurie's not texting him as much
as she was before. Could it be that your famous
shrimp alfredo was so delicious it sent her into a
delayed food coma, and now she's just on her couch
sleeping it off for a long time, for a week.

(07:13):
It's that tasty. Yeah, what do you think they're Todd?
Oh yeah, maybe uh it, Yeah it was really good. Well,
we'll find out, but we do want you to send
us a sample to the studio, just so that we
can be sure. It's called reset. You gotta come over,
you gotta come over. I do it at my house
with all the candles and everything. The candle seem to
be like that made me one of the things that

(07:34):
went wrong. She did note that it could be a
seance and why is the ghost of Abraham Lincoln on
this day? But we'll see what she asked to say,
and maybe it's none of those things. Could be something
totally out of your control. We'll call her and find out.
All right, Yeah, let's see, here we go. I'm gonna
call her number right now. Hello, Hey, is this Lorie? Yeah,

(08:07):
well she is conscience, so we're gonna have to strike that.
Where now are you asleep? I'm away? Who's funny? Yeah,
we're a radio show called Brooke and Jeffrey in the Morning.
Oh my goodness, I know you guys. Sorry, Hey, it

(08:28):
should happen more often than it does, so we appreciate that.
I know somebody recognizes me. Well, this is good that
you listen to us because we're doing a second date update.
Pliar with that, I think so, I mean, I know
your voice is weird to talk to you on the phone.

(08:49):
Not sure what that is, but what's up. We're trying
to get a hold of you on behalf of our
listener who cooked for you the other night named Todd
Oh Shrimp Alfredo guy. Yes, yeah, okay, warehouse full of candles. Yeah,
there were a lot of cudels. Like, I'm like, is

(09:10):
it guientist Santaria. I don't know. From the way that
you're talking, it sounds like maybe you like Todd. Yeah,
I like, he's really nice. It's just I feel we're
talking about this on the radio. Um me too, I
feel weird about it. So we're all in the same
boat here. Everything you say is on the radio, jap.
But obviously Todd reached out to us because he's feeling

(09:33):
a little bit confused that in the week following your date,
the communications kind of dried up. Yeah, well, okay, so
it's a weird situation, like they did not mean to happen. Like,
I'm in a weird situation right now. Oh man, it's
an X, isn't it. I'm not saying this one person.
I'm on a dating app, so I'm not exclusive with anybody.

(09:54):
You're dating multiple people right now, just too. And they
both happen to be chefs, And I swear I did
not intend this to happen. Like, wait, is Todd counted
in the two? Yeah? I mean you just want to
one date with him and He told us that he's
not a professional chef, that he just he likes to cook. Yeah,
well the other guys like legit chef, you stick piece

(10:17):
a good cook too, So I mean, I don't did it? Like,
why are you not calling Todd back? Though? Like, I mean,
are you just too busy with the other dude? Are
you hanging out with him more often is better? I
don't really know what to do, Like I've never been
in the situation before, and like one's really good at Italian,
the other is really good at Mexican name, but he
makes the deciladas and they were like to dive for

(10:41):
You're you're basing your love life on how well they
couldn't cook. Why are you stopping talking to one? Keep
it up cheating? I don't know what the rules are.
There's no rules. Yeah, there's no rules. Alexis is right.
I meanial one, She's right. You've gone out on one date.
You didn't even sit next to him on the couch.

(11:02):
He said, I think you're fine. Like, I'm kind of
used to the dating app thing, and like for me,
it's a little strange to be dating more than one person,
and I feel like I make a decision you know
what I mean, you're not comfortable juggling multiple guys, like
the women on this show are. Yeah, they don't care.
That's what even pre dating apps, it's what dating is, right.

(11:23):
I think she's already thinking if she likes them both,
eventually one of them she'll probably become What were you
waiting for to make your choice? I don't know if
they're like some balls and they're both great cooks. I
mean you say, wait, a man's heart, there a stomach,
but you know, oh yeah, I'm with you. Girls. I
have an idea. Have you considered a real life cooking competition,
like the chef you come over and you're like, look, boys,

(11:47):
you're cooking for your livelihoods right now you're cooking for me,
and then you yell at them, really mean, like like
something is the wrong way, but like his Italian, the
only thing you can cook? Are like, okay, all right.
I mean we're talking and we're joking about this a lot.
But I do wonder how Todd feels because he's been

(12:09):
listening the entire time. What wait, Laurie, you're serious, You're
you're seeing two different chefs. I mean, it really did
not intend to happen. It's not like I'm trolling for
chefs I promised you. I mean I didn't want to
believe that them when they were saying, you know, ladies
love a free meal. But that seems like you're running
a train on the you know, the cuisine line. I

(12:32):
told you by accident. No, it's just what she put
in her dating profile. She said she loves Sea their
only pick up line. Yes, it's how are your inta,
I mean, I don't cook Mexican food, but I'm sure
my food is better. Oh that's a little throw down,
So you're not You're not intimidated by the other chef

(12:53):
that possibly could be cooking better than you. Todd, I mean,
I'm honestly shocked. I didn't know, Lauria. I didn't know
you were you were seeing someone else. I mean I
thought we were just having a date. I didn't know
there was anyone else in the picture. Well, like, I'm
my dating app and I'm meeting different people and trying
to get like out of my comfort zone. But like,
are you saying you're not meeting anybody else? I mean no,

(13:14):
I'm not. I mean, I'm you know, I try to
focus my attention on one person. I'm not, you know,
disrespecting what you're doing, but heads up would be nice. Hey,
I eat at a different guy's house every night of
the week. Just letting me know and then I know.
I mean, look, I get it, like we just met,
we've only been on one date. But no, I'm not

(13:34):
I'm not seeing anybody. It would just be nice to
know what you're doing. Yeah, so where do you stand
with the other guy? It's like I said, it's out
of my comfort zone. So I'm just kind of trying
to sew with it. I bet mister Enchilada's didn't use
as many candles in his apartment. Yeah, the candles, you
know there, So that's one point for Todd, but he
may have paired it with a fresh margharita. We're tied

(13:55):
one to one now keeping score. Can I ask an
important question all food aside, personality wise, who do you
like more? No, that's all in all serious. If they're
really both great guys, are can you just share the

(14:17):
wealth a little bit like Alexis needs. Okay, well, I'm
gonna throw out an idea that's kind of unique. All right,
I propose that Laurie, you and the Mexican chef get
together and go over to Todd's place and have Todd
cook for both of you. Yeah, then Todd, you and

(14:39):
Laurie get together and go over to mister Mexican Chef's place.
But I'm not trying to get involved in the thruble. Yeah,
I'm all about this all right, Okay, suddenly you were
uncomfortable just say, two men separately, and now you want
them all in the same room. Bye on for a week?
Why do we have both chefs come to our studios

(15:02):
cook for all? Concluding Lorie, we can all do a vote.
I'm not making out with him. I don't care. I
want some tacos. We'll kiss him for it. I'm willing
to get some good shrimp. But we would like you
to get back together with Todd, Lorie, and we would
pay for you to meet up again. Yeah. I would
really like that. I would like it if he's okay

(15:24):
for a second day. I was happy to hear that
she was a little shy on the couch because I
was also a little nervous, So maybe we could get
out closure. Oh there you go. I mean that's the
thing about the couch. It's harder to get closer to
the Mexican chefs because of all the beans and everything involved.
Oh wow, that's what all the scented candles in his
room are four. Yeah, she's like, whatever you do, not

(15:46):
lift the blanket ups working Jeffrey in the morning. Why
is the text board blowing up right now suggesting I
dress up as one of the chefs and make out
with both of them. I don't see at all. Actually
that's not the tech sport. I wrote that down on
this piece of piece. This show is so confusing sometimes.

(16:11):
But no, like Brook said, I am interested in getting
an update from those two. But yeah, it certain you
think texts coming on pieces of we're going old fashioned.
You know, the technology of year isn't great. But you know,
once the dust settles and dinner time rolls around, she's
going to be over at her place thinking don't want Mexican?
Or do they want to tell you him to know?

(16:34):
Tough choice, but a great choice for real, and she's
gonna get it cooked from both of the critic Yeah,
either way, she wins, and we want to help you
win in your dating life. Email the show. We'll call
that person who wasn't calling you back if you want
to check out any of our second date updates, go
