Speaker 1 (00:00):
The second dated. It's funny. People in dating apps are
just like Goldilocks and the Three Bears. Some people are
very hot and use them all the time, like most
of the kids in the promo department here. Others they're
a little more medium, like someone in this room who
only goes on when her husband's out of town. I
(00:26):
said someone.
Speaker 2 (00:26):
I guess medium is a compliment coming from you.
Speaker 1 (00:29):
And some are very very new to it, like one
of our listeners, Mary Anne, who said she's just dipping
her toe into the online dating scene. Mary Anne, you
haven't matched with Jose or anybody yet.
Speaker 3 (00:43):
No, not yet.
Speaker 2 (00:44):
Okay, I'm shocked you kids.
Speaker 1 (00:46):
I put my zip code to every zip code. What's
it like jumping into the online dating scene.
Speaker 3 (00:55):
It's interesting.
Speaker 4 (00:57):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (00:57):
I'm a little cautious about it. I guess that's a good.
Speaker 2 (01:01):
Way to your attitude.
Speaker 5 (01:03):
Sounds good though, like you look like your hope. You
sound hopeful.
Speaker 1 (01:07):
How are you cautious with online dating?
Speaker 3 (01:10):
Well, I'm a teacher of like younger kids, or like
I just I don't want the parents to find me.
I don't want like any weird pictures of me out there,
you know, to make anything awkward. So I only really
have like a few pictures in my profile, and like
a couple of them I'm like wearing sunglasses. So it's
just there's nothing crazy there.
Speaker 1 (01:28):
It's like you're a celebrity.
Speaker 5 (01:29):
It's like you're so like toy of I mean, but
seriously though, like my kids, teachers are very edited on
their social media's interesting.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
Book has seen their dating profiles clearly pages whatever you
want to say, But I couldn't even tell you only
posted two photos on here? What a tease? Okay, what Marianna?
So who did you match with online?
Speaker 3 (01:56):
There's not a lot of people actually, so I actually
only go by one initial.
Speaker 4 (02:01):
I just go by him for Mary Anne, which may
make people more cautious about you.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
I mean, yeah, backfire, Is that true?
Speaker 4 (02:12):
Marian Yeah?
Speaker 3 (02:13):
No, I really don't get like a lot of messages.
Speaker 1 (02:17):
So who is brave enough to swipe right on you?
Speaker 3 (02:20):
So I did? Finally the sky Cordon actually reached out
to me.
Speaker 1 (02:23):
Gordon masculine name, it is masculine, very masculine.
Speaker 3 (02:28):
I don't know.
Speaker 5 (02:28):
I had a pet lizard, Na, I bet that lizard had.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
A six pat lizards, masculine pets.
Speaker 1 (02:40):
What's Gordon like?
Speaker 3 (02:41):
He's really nice. It was just nice. He was one
of the few people that actually wanted to get to
know me and talk to me and like actually go
out in real life, not just you know, message me online.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
Okay, what did it feel like going into an actual date?
Speaker 3 (02:56):
I mean I was a little nervous, but I mean
I was hopeful. I was. He seemed really nice. So
we were going to go to a music festival. We decided,
Oh that's cute. Yeah, yeah, it was his pick. I
didn't really know a lot of the bands, but you know,
I tried to listen and like get to know some
of them before we went. And there's a couple that
are pretty good.
Speaker 5 (03:15):
Three songs from somebody's YouTube channels, just to make sure
to participate.
Speaker 1 (03:20):
Did it turn out to be fun?
Speaker 3 (03:22):
Yeah, it was fun. He's here a positive attitude and
he's like no pressure, like you know, and I just
I liked being around him, honestly.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
Like, so it sounds like it turned out even better
than you expected.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
Yeah, it was actually like worried for nothing. But when
we went to leave, like it was getting late and
so like we made sure to head out, but I noticed,
like once we got closted, like the exit I did
on my phone. Oh no, and I was like, oh
my god, like I lost my phone somewhere and.
Speaker 1 (03:52):
What a nightmare.
Speaker 3 (03:53):
So he also looked for it, and he eventually found
it under these like tables where you could like stand
around and drink.
Speaker 2 (03:58):
Oh my god. So he's nice and he's a hero.
Speaker 3 (04:01):
Yeah, exactly like everything.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
Did you give him a big kiss as a thank you?
Speaker 4 (04:07):
Get to it?
Speaker 1 (04:08):
Okay, sorry to jump forward.
Speaker 3 (04:12):
Anyway. So he takes me home and we just have
a good night hug.
Speaker 5 (04:17):
Actually weird, you sound so cute and giggly about it,
though I love it was it felt good, it felt right.
Speaker 3 (04:26):
Yeah, I thought we clicked and like, I don't know,
I'm surprised we aren't going out again, Like I texted
him being like I really enjoyed seeing you, Like I
got a lot of fun, Like I love to hang
out again, Like I was really looking forward to, like,
you know, hanging out with him again.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
It's like a long hug or was it like a
quick like I want to know it wasn't.
Speaker 3 (04:47):
Yeah, I mean it wasn't like a side church hug.
I mean like it was you know, it was like
a full hog.
Speaker 2 (04:52):
Okay, wait, you haven't heard from him at all.
Speaker 3 (04:56):
No, and I don't know what to do. It's weird,
and now I'm like, I'm bad.
Speaker 1 (05:02):
I'm still caught up on a church hug because the
hugs that I've had from people in church, they go,
they get pretty intense. I'll tell you, wow, but.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
God, bless you, bless you.
Speaker 1 (05:13):
I've had therapy from some of those church. So it's
been how long since? I don't know? People do it different, So,
so how long has it been since you and Gordon
hung out?
Speaker 3 (05:28):
It was a few weeks ago?
Speaker 2 (05:29):
Now, okay, so you've waited. Wait now you have your
phone back. Have you guys been texting since then?
Speaker 3 (05:35):
Not really. I've tried to get him to hang out,
but he's not really super responsive.
Speaker 5 (05:41):
I guess we need this to work out because it's
like your first time in online dating and it's going
to be bad.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
That's pretty typical, I know.
Speaker 1 (05:52):
And you had fun like normally it's like, oh my god,
I'm never gonna online.
Speaker 3 (05:56):
Again like you had to experience.
Speaker 1 (05:57):
They want you to have another date. I want or
church hugs for you. So we'll try and get some
of that done. When we play a song, come back
and call Gordon and try and get your second date
update right after this.
Speaker 3 (06:08):
Okay, cool, thank you.
Speaker 1 (06:10):
Hold on, Maryanne, the school teacher is on the phone
with us for a second date.
Speaker 2 (06:18):
And he just sounds so innocent when you say that.
Speaker 1 (06:20):
She does. And her very first online dating experience went
just about as well as it possibly could because she
went to a music festival, lost her phone, but found
it before they left, and ended the night with a
steamy church hug.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
She said Jeff that it was better than that.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
Church or not. God was watching and God was like you.
But now it's been weeks and her date Gordon has
been kind of distant, and I know Brooke was surprised
that Marianne left a music festival with her top still on.
Speaker 2 (06:55):
I mean, everybody has different vibes.
Speaker 1 (06:57):
Alexis was shocked that she remembered the music festival at all. Yeah, honestly,
but we're going to do our best here. How you feeling, Marianne,
I'm feeling Okay.
Speaker 5 (07:09):
You're brave because not only were you trying dating apps
for the first time, you're reaching out to us.
Speaker 2 (07:14):
To help like this.
Speaker 5 (07:15):
This is this is a broad move your phone, very
traumatic experience.
Speaker 1 (07:20):
Some would say that you're at an all time low
being on the show with us, but that only the
only way we could go from here is up.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
Okay, back for its compliments, kind of see that?
Speaker 1 (07:32):
Okay, I thought that was a positive thing to say. Interesting,
I'll apologize with a church hug to you.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
Okay, Mary, don't take Jeff's church hugs.
Speaker 3 (07:42):
I think I'll pass. We should just call him a
good idea your loss.
Speaker 1 (07:46):
But let's just do that. We're gonna call Gordon right
now here we go. Hello, Hello, this Gordon?
Speaker 4 (08:01):
This is Gordon. Who's this?
Speaker 1 (08:03):
Sorry? Did we call you in the bathroom or something?
I wait over there?
Speaker 2 (08:07):
Are you wanting that to be the truth?
Speaker 1 (08:09):
I didn't want to interrupt you.
Speaker 4 (08:11):
No, I'm good.
Speaker 3 (08:12):
Who am I talking to?
Speaker 1 (08:13):
Who is this you're talking to? Esteemed radio host Jeffrey
Dubou from award winning morning Showbrook and Jeffrey in the Morning.
Speaker 4 (08:21):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (08:24):
Why, great question we're calling to Did we win the
award because our mom's made us one? No, we're calling
because we're doing a segment called a second Date Update,
hoping to get some answers for one of our listeners
named Mary Anne. Remember going out with Marianna? A couple
of weeks ago.
Speaker 4 (08:43):
Oh yeah, I remember that.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
Yes I did not.
Speaker 5 (08:47):
I'm sorry Gordon to interrupt, but I didn't expect that
type of reaction. She sounds bubbly and lovely and she's
a school teacher.
Speaker 4 (08:55):
That's that's what she says.
Speaker 1 (08:57):
I guess, Oh wow, you're clearly not very fond of Marianne.
But she felt like the date with you went really well.
Speaker 2 (09:07):
Yeah, did you have fun at the music festival?
Speaker 4 (09:10):
Yeah? I had fun at the music festival. It started
out fun, it started out great.
Speaker 1 (09:14):
Well, okay, what's going on? What's with the coldness?
Speaker 4 (09:17):
I mean, I don't know. I don't know what she
told you guys, but she she lost her phone at
one point, and you know, I was trying to help
her find it.
Speaker 2 (09:26):
That is hate irresponsible people. Is that what you're saying?
Speaker 4 (09:30):
Well, I wound up actually finding her phone.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
Yeah, you were you were her hero, that was what
she said.
Speaker 4 (09:37):
Yeah. Well I when I picked up her phone, her
home screen came on and what I saw kind of
broke me.
Speaker 2 (09:46):
WHOA, ok, you what what? She's a school teacher. I
can't imagine it would be.
Speaker 4 (09:53):
I don't know how I else to say it. When
I looked at her screen. It was a picture of
her kissing another guy.
Speaker 1 (10:03):
What kind of guy?
Speaker 2 (10:05):
That doesn't matter?
Speaker 1 (10:08):
Like her father.
Speaker 4 (10:09):
Maybe it definitely was not the way you kiss your father.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
You don't know how I kiss my father. So how
dare you jump to that sort of conclusion.
Speaker 5 (10:18):
I mean, that could have been, like I don't know,
we didn't get her last relationship status, Like maybe she
just broke up with somebody. Maybe she's there could be
other reasons.
Speaker 1 (10:27):
Photo you're on a date with somebody else.
Speaker 4 (10:30):
I don't know. I mean, it kind of all started
to make sense to me.
Speaker 1 (10:34):
What what do you mean? I'm not what do you
what's going on in your mind when you see that picture?
Speaker 4 (10:38):
I mean her her profile is just m and all
of her photos are her with sunglasses on. And then
I see this and it snapped in the clear focus
for me. She's she's cheated.
Speaker 5 (10:54):
God, she acted so innocent, like she she totally played
up the innocent school teacher. And I mean she told
us that she just did m and the sunglasses and
stuff because she didn't want parents of her students to
find her.
Speaker 4 (11:09):
Yeah, she told me the same thing.
Speaker 1 (11:11):
WHOA okay your stances? You're not cool with her cheating.
That's always like two steps. I just want to be clear.
Speaker 5 (11:21):
Why didn't you Why didn't you address her when you
saw the phone and you picked it up and handed
it back to her, Why didn't you say something?
Speaker 4 (11:28):
I just honestly, I wanted nothing to do with her
at that point.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
I guess that makes sense. Why at the end there
was no kiss? Yeah, just a church hug.
Speaker 4 (11:41):
That's what you call church hug? Sure, yeah it was.
Speaker 1 (11:45):
We don't know what to call it at this point.
Speaker 2 (11:47):
Yeah, Okay, that's.
Speaker 1 (11:49):
All I mean. I guess i'd be surprised if she
was still there on the line after this whole thing.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
But why would she call us if she was cheating?
Speaker 1 (11:58):
I don't know what an idiot I can see. Let's
ask Mary Anne, because she's been listening to this the
entire time, Gordon, Mary Anne.
Speaker 3 (12:06):
What.
Speaker 1 (12:07):
Yeah, she's been there the whole time.
Speaker 3 (12:08):
Mary You there, Yeah, I'm here, Mary Anne?
Speaker 1 (12:13):
What do you have to say? I mean, this is it's.
Speaker 3 (12:16):
Not what you think?
Speaker 1 (12:19):
Yeah, what do you mean? You had? You had a
picture of you kissing another guy on your phone screen?
Speaker 4 (12:28):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (12:28):
That was my husband. He passed away last year, and
I just have a memory of him on my phone.
Speaker 1 (12:38):
Oh my god, you were.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (12:45):
I didn't know you well enough yet to really talk
about it, so I didn't want to bring it up
on our first date.
Speaker 2 (12:53):
You know, are you okay?
Speaker 1 (12:57):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (12:58):
I mean I am honestly a little taken aback just
listening to what you said and jumping so soon to
conclusions about me with that, you could have just confronted
me that.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
Night, Gordon, mean, how do you feel right now? You
must kind of feel like boob id right now.
Speaker 4 (13:19):
I'm really sorry to hear that. I just I've been
down this road before, and so I didn't think. I
didn't think. I feel like I had it all figured
out already.
Speaker 2 (13:27):
Yeah, hopefully that's his.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
Whole heartbreaking Yeah sides, though, I feel like the understanding
needs to be there.
Speaker 5 (13:34):
And I mean Marianne, he's obviously been on dating apps
a lot longer because he's jaded and jumps to conclusions,
which is what we did when he explained it. I mean,
when you connect that to just your m profile and
everything and your secrecy, it makes sense. Oh yeah, we
didn't know you lost your husband, like I mean, yeah.
Speaker 1 (13:52):
But if the good news is if Marianne is on
the dating apps, it must mean that she's feeling ready
to put herself back doubt there. Yeah, so that's encouraging.
Speaker 3 (14:02):
It took me a while, but I mean, yeah, I
finally did it.
Speaker 2 (14:06):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (14:07):
I mean it makes sense why it's your first time
ever on dating apps because you were married.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
Yeah, Brooke doesn't play by the same rules as that,
but that's.
Speaker 5 (14:15):
Good for you.
Speaker 2 (14:18):
Oh man, that's hard.
Speaker 1 (14:21):
But wow, I'm glad we got closure a little clarity
in this situation. And Gordon, now that you know that
she's not cheating and what the situation is, we'd like
to offer to send the two of you out on
another date, and we would pay for it.
Speaker 4 (14:38):
I do feel terrible about the assumption, and obviously about
what happened to your husband into you, and other than that.
Speaker 1 (14:44):
Nothing else bad happened.
Speaker 4 (14:46):
Correct.
Speaker 2 (14:46):
You guys are really cute y.
Speaker 4 (14:48):
Yeah, I honestly really did have a good time on
the date, and until I saw that futal, I would
be open to it if you.
Speaker 1 (14:54):
Are, okay, that is fair because based on this I
don't know that mary Anne is still interested. Mary Anne,
are you willing to give him another chance after he
jumped to conclusions?
Speaker 3 (15:07):
I'll give it another shot. We can talk it out.
We'll see where we get from there. I guess excited.
Speaker 1 (15:14):
All right, so's she's the most brilliant ever. No, I'm kidding.
I'm happy for you guys. It sounds like we're sending
you out on another day. Congratulations you two, Thank you,
jeff Church day. I don't know about that, but we
could celebrate by ending this with an entire show church hudg. Yeah, everybody,
(15:44):
bring it in close.
Speaker 2 (15:45):
I'm taking it off to your church.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
Jeff looking Jeffrey in the morning, man. Legit tears coming
from the text board from a lot of people who
are all pulling for Charlotte and her love story.
Speaker 2 (15:58):
I mean, it was beautiful.
Speaker 5 (16:00):
God, this is a couple that I definitely hope that
we get an update from, even if it doesn't work out.
Speaker 2 (16:07):
I just want to hear that everybody's doing okay.
Speaker 4 (16:09):
Still.
Speaker 1 (16:09):
Yeah, and obviously she didn't go into much detail about
what happened with the passing of her late husband because
we didn't want to pry into that.
Speaker 5 (16:16):
Good work, team, Well, why would you ask that that
was on your mind? Just want to know what a
true crime podcast.
Speaker 1 (16:26):
I'm giving us props for not going there. That's what
I'm saying, but you do have to. You have to
give her credit for being courageous and being brave, not
just by putting herself out in the dating world again,
but also staying on the phone while this guy accuses
her of cheating.
Speaker 2 (16:41):
For sure, that must have been so emotionous for her.
Speaker 1 (16:44):
One of the most intense cases of like assuming is
never a good.
Speaker 5 (16:47):
Either that or she's on the other line thinking, oh
my god, this idiot, you know, until.
Speaker 1 (16:51):
He felt Maybe it's a good rule of thumb. If
you ever see somebody else with a phone screen picture
of them kissing somebody, just assume that it's a relative
that's passed away. I don't ever know that.
Speaker 2 (17:06):
Really, that's not the lesson. Yeah, maybe just more open communication.
Speaker 1 (17:10):
Yeah, different lessons this one apparently. But here's a good lesson.
If you ever want to get in touch with somebody
that you went on a date with that's not calling
you back, you can email the show and we'll call
that person.
Speaker 2 (17:22):
Yeah, okay, let's stick to that.
Speaker 1 (17:24):
That's a good lesson. Anyway, It's Brook and Jeffrey in
the Morning.
Speaker 4 (17:27):
Brook and Jeffrey in the Morning,
