Speaker 1 (00:00):
Second date, up date.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
We all want to hit redo sometimes in life. Oh yeah,
like Alexis wants to hit redo on her eyebrows.
Speaker 1 (00:11):
Sorry, I want her.
Speaker 3 (00:12):
To redo the stereot controls these.
Speaker 1 (00:19):
I haven't told you that yet, have I? Alexis? No, Jeff,
right now, I have a plan. Don't worry.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
Well, we'll talk about that later though, not about when
it comes to an awkward situation that happens during a
good date and you don't want to redo the whole night,
just redo that awkward moment.
Speaker 4 (00:36):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (00:37):
Yeah, that's why Scott emailed us for help. And Scott,
I know you and I have talked about Alexis's eyebrows,
but let's not focus on that right now. All right,
We're just here to talk about your date.
Speaker 5 (00:50):
No idea, bro, talk was going like that these days.
Speaker 2 (00:52):
Yeah, let's talk about your date, Scott. Who's the girl
that you went out with?
Speaker 4 (01:00):
Okay? Her name is Erica?
Speaker 1 (01:01):
Okay, normal eyebrows?
Speaker 6 (01:04):
No, not at all exceptional?
Speaker 1 (01:08):
I was over had like crazy brows. So what did
you and Erica do for your date?
Speaker 4 (01:15):
Well, we met online and we went to dinner. Okay,
nice place. Everything's going great.
Speaker 6 (01:22):
I go to wash my hands and I came out
and I had like a napkin slash paper towel in
between my fly, like it was just.
Speaker 3 (01:30):
Hanging Wait, wait in your pants.
Speaker 1 (01:34):
Yeah, because I poking out through the zipper.
Speaker 3 (01:37):
Wait, do you guys wipe that?
Speaker 2 (01:38):
No, on his lap, because he's a gentleman at dinner,
and then it got caught in the zipper.
Speaker 3 (01:44):
You're a super.
Speaker 6 (01:46):
It was a nice restaurant, so they don't have like
paper towels. They have a nice linen type thing. So
after I washed my hands, I have it in my
hand and I noticed my.
Speaker 4 (01:53):
Fly was still down, so I dipped it up and
I just walked.
Speaker 1 (01:55):
Out and it was stuck in there.
Speaker 4 (01:58):
It was and I just walked out, didn't even know it.
Speaker 6 (02:01):
And I'm about halfway and I see her face look
at me and then look down and then look back
at me.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
He's to show me the most inappropriate magic trick.
Speaker 5 (02:10):
That and you're feeling real confident at that point.
Speaker 3 (02:13):
Oh you could see it.
Speaker 6 (02:15):
Wow, I did that thing where you turn around because
obviously she's looking at something else.
Speaker 4 (02:20):
Yeah, And I was like what And then I looked down. Oh,
and I see it, and what do you do? I
should have turned around, just pulled it out.
Speaker 1 (02:29):
No, don't pull it.
Speaker 5 (02:31):
Yeah, pull it out of the zipper, like it can't
be that hard.
Speaker 3 (02:35):
What did you do?
Speaker 6 (02:36):
Here's what popped into my stupid brain. I thought, why
don't we pull it out like a magician, just keep
being being keeping and pulled it out.
Speaker 1 (02:48):
Like one of those never ending scarves up your sleeves.
I love handkerchief.
Speaker 3 (02:53):
Huh that's interesting.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
Was she impressed?
Speaker 4 (02:57):
She started laughing.
Speaker 3 (02:59):
Maybe you knew your audience, you know.
Speaker 6 (03:01):
I think she thinks that I did the napkin thing
on purpose to be funny. But yeah, I did not,
but I totally went with it. And I'm like, all right,
let's go with that.
Speaker 4 (03:12):
Yes, it's hilarious.
Speaker 5 (03:18):
Yeah, you painted this like it was this horrible moment,
but actually it looked like it worked to your benefit
on the date.
Speaker 6 (03:25):
Yeah, I'm not done yet.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
Oh those are more embarrassing.
Speaker 6 (03:30):
So I invited her back to my place, okay, okay,
and she says yes.
Speaker 4 (03:35):
I'm like all right, I'm sweet.
Speaker 6 (03:38):
I opened the door and standing there is my dad,
Oh at your place?
Speaker 4 (03:44):
At my place?
Speaker 3 (03:48):
Oh? Why is your dad inside your apartment?
Speaker 4 (03:52):
He just came over.
Speaker 6 (03:53):
He didn't tell me.
Speaker 4 (03:54):
You just wanted to come over key.
Speaker 5 (03:58):
No, obviously she's not to believe that it's your house.
She's gonna think unless it's like a one bedroom apartment.
Speaker 4 (04:04):
No, I've got her two bedrooms. So I was like, Dad,
what are you doing here? And he's I just wanted
to come vivid Ooh she's pretty.
Speaker 5 (04:11):
Who's this?
Speaker 7 (04:14):
Hope?
Speaker 1 (04:15):
I'm not ruined in your game?
Speaker 4 (04:16):
Son.
Speaker 1 (04:18):
What was Erica's reaction?
Speaker 4 (04:19):
Could you read that she was a little uncomfortable, like
hot high?
Speaker 1 (04:23):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (04:24):
Yeah, she'd be shocked.
Speaker 5 (04:26):
I mean she could obviously sense how shocked you were
though too right, Yeah, I hope so.
Speaker 6 (04:31):
And at one point I decided, all right, let me
get some drinks.
Speaker 4 (04:34):
Maybe I can ease the pain. And he's gonna leave soon.
Speaker 6 (04:36):
So I left them alone for I don't know five minutes.
They were talking okay, And I came back and her
vibe was completely different.
Speaker 3 (04:45):
Oh, Dad, she's already meeting the parents like so much.
Speaker 5 (04:51):
It's your dad, one of those dads that is like
super embarrassing, likes to tell horrible stories about you.
Speaker 4 (04:56):
You mean, yes, he's the quintessential dad joke. Dad, Now
we know where you got.
Speaker 5 (05:04):
The napkin trick idea apple and tree there?
Speaker 1 (05:08):
How did you and Erica and your dad leave things?
Speaker 4 (05:11):
So I'm trying to give hints. All right, Dad, good
to see you. Good to see you. He just plops
down on the couch. It's like, all right, let's watch
a movie.
Speaker 3 (05:22):
Do you see I made two drinks dad.
Speaker 6 (05:27):
Erica just like you know what, I've got an early morning. Yeah,
I'm gonna take off.
Speaker 3 (05:32):
I mean, you can't blame her.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
I'm sure you wanted to leave too.
Speaker 6 (05:35):
Oh I did, And so I start walking her out
and he goes, no.
Speaker 4 (05:39):
We're about to watch Harry Potter come back.
Speaker 1 (05:43):
Okay, that would have worked on me.
Speaker 6 (05:47):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (05:48):
Did you get a chance to apologize?
Speaker 4 (05:51):
But I have not heard from her since?
Speaker 3 (05:54):
Okay, that's hard, Dad, Hill to climb up up Now.
Speaker 2 (05:57):
I see why you would want to redo a few
of those moments from the night. And we can't really
redo them, but we can at least try and get
you a redo on a second date.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
So we're gonna play a song. We'll come back.
Speaker 3 (06:08):
Will you call his dad two?
Speaker 1 (06:11):
I think we've dealt with enough embarrassing moments.
Speaker 7 (06:13):
All right, let's just.
Speaker 2 (06:14):
Try and focus on some positives. We'll call Erica and
try and get your second date updates.
Speaker 7 (06:17):
Right after this second date update.
Speaker 2 (06:22):
The surprise Dad, that's not just the name of my
go to move for my bingo dates, it's what actually
happened to one of our listeners, Scott recently during his
first date with Erica. Yeah, because they went back to
his place at the end of the night, and who
was waiting there inside the door but his old pop
ready to crack a bruski and watch some Harry Potter
(06:44):
with his boy.
Speaker 3 (06:45):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (06:46):
So obviously that situation put a damper on the romance,
and ever since, Erica is not responding when Scott reaches
out hoping to get another date. So we're gonna step
in kind of like his dad did try and get
that second date for Scott.
Speaker 1 (07:01):
Feeling ready for this?
Speaker 4 (07:02):
Oh yeah, that was.
Speaker 3 (07:05):
A painful recap, Scott, how.
Speaker 4 (07:07):
Are you feeling, I'm I'm hopeful.
Speaker 7 (07:10):
Okay, that's good, but a little nervous.
Speaker 3 (07:14):
Yeah, you know, all of.
Speaker 5 (07:15):
This was out of your control. I think anyone would
be empathetic of that. You know, we all have cringe
worthy parents.
Speaker 2 (07:22):
Oh yeah, and before we call her, Scott, you said
that you noticed Erica was talking to your dad for
a few minutes while you were in the other room.
Did you ever ask your dad what he said to her?
Speaker 4 (07:32):
I did, Hey, what what happened to you? I don't know,
we just made some small talk.
Speaker 3 (07:36):
Oh oh, and you just took that at face value?
Speaker 2 (07:39):
Oh god, I mean, there's no way that your dad
would ever swoop in on your dates.
Speaker 4 (07:44):
You're thinking, No.
Speaker 5 (07:49):
I thought he was just going to tell like a
terrible story about like how he got stood up on
prom or something like that.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
Or maybe he asked her like if she was in
gryffindor Slytherin something.
Speaker 1 (07:59):
I mean, let's just.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
Call Erica and find out what happened. We're going to
dial the number right now and see what she has
to say. Let's do this, you ready, Scott?
Speaker 4 (08:06):
All right, Let's do this for better or for worse?
Speaker 7 (08:08):
All right, here we go, Helen.
Speaker 1 (08:20):
Hey, is this Erica?
Speaker 6 (08:22):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (08:23):
Who's this?
Speaker 2 (08:25):
Is Jeff from the radio show Brook and Jeffrey in
the Morning. We're looking for the biggest Harry Potter fans.
Speaker 7 (08:30):
In the area.
Speaker 1 (08:33):
You a potterhead?
Speaker 8 (08:34):
Oh god, I like it, But I'm not like a
crazy Wait what is this about?
Speaker 4 (08:41):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (08:42):
Exactly, It's not about that.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
That's just a side question.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
The real question that we want to ask about is
your date the other night with a guy named Scott.
Speaker 5 (08:51):
Oh, yeah, it's probably I mean, that's okay.
Speaker 3 (08:56):
It's probably a hard date to forget.
Speaker 2 (08:59):
We're doing something something called a second date update. We're
trying to help Scott figure out what went wrong when
you two hung out together.
Speaker 5 (09:06):
And to be fair, Scott definitely has some ideas of what.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
Are or maybe nothing went wrong and it's something totally
unrelated to that night.
Speaker 1 (09:14):
We can focus on what went right.
Speaker 3 (09:16):
I heard he made you laugh.
Speaker 8 (09:20):
I'm not understanding the second date thing, like he was
just wanting to know my story.
Speaker 2 (09:25):
Yeah, because Scott told us his version of the story
and he knows that afterwards you haven't been responding to him,
and he's just trying to figure out the reason why.
Speaker 8 (09:36):
I don't know how much he told you.
Speaker 1 (09:39):
He told us about a little napkin trick that he
showed you.
Speaker 3 (09:42):
And that you thought was funny.
Speaker 8 (09:44):
Yeah, it was pretty risky, Like I don't know how
if he knew that I would laugh, Like, you know,
he came out in the bathroom with like a tissue
and a zipper.
Speaker 5 (09:55):
Yeah, but the risk paid off, right, risk great?
Speaker 3 (09:59):
Reward.
Speaker 8 (10:00):
I thought it was hilarious and like, I really really
like funny guys.
Speaker 7 (10:04):
Cool.
Speaker 2 (10:05):
Yeah, so I'm going to fast forward from dinner to
Scott's house. What was your reaction when you saw his
dad was waking, Yeah, this is what I.
Speaker 3 (10:13):
Want to go because we heard that you can be honest.
Speaker 8 (10:17):
Well, so originally when I said I go back to
his place, like I actually was totally open to hook
up with him.
Speaker 3 (10:26):
But that's gonna hurt even more.
Speaker 8 (10:32):
When he opened the door and his dad was there,
Oh my god. I can't tell you how awkward that was.
Yet the worst part is I knew his dad.
Speaker 2 (10:45):
Wait, what, dad, you're his daughter from another secret family.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
When we tell Scott that his dad has another family.
Speaker 3 (10:58):
Let her talk? What do you mean he knows you
knew his dad.
Speaker 8 (11:02):
He's my gynecologist, is your special doctor. So he clearly
recognized me, and like I knew him like I had
just got in like a couple of months ago.
Speaker 3 (11:17):
Good news.
Speaker 5 (11:18):
He recognized your face and not. But he's a professional.
I mean, like, come on, this guy's a doctor.
Speaker 1 (11:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (11:32):
It's like the super awkward thing.
Speaker 1 (11:35):
He's like all casual, just like good to see you.
Speaker 5 (11:38):
He's gonna be worse if you have to go in
for an STD after.
Speaker 8 (11:42):
Oh my god. No, I'm trying my best. And at
one point, like I just asked Scott to get me
a drink, and like I talked to the dad and
he's like, don't worry, it's patient confidentiality. Yeah, And I
just asked him, like if he could help me get
out of the situation, if you can just say, like, hey, Scott,
let's watch a movie so I can just leave. Way
(12:04):
too awkward.
Speaker 2 (12:06):
I guess dad wasn't as clueless as we thought he was.
He was actually trying to help her out.
Speaker 3 (12:11):
Oh my god, that is so hard.
Speaker 2 (12:14):
I guess the really clueless person is probably Scott, who
we should let you know where Erica is on the
other line listening right now and wants to talk to you.
Speaker 8 (12:23):
Wait wait, wait what it's.
Speaker 1 (12:24):
Okay, Scott's there, Thank Scott.
Speaker 4 (12:27):
What's going on right now?
Speaker 3 (12:30):
Oh my god, Why couldn't your dad have been a Dennis?
Speaker 4 (12:35):
Oh god, Oh my god. I'm mortified. But honestly, Erica,
I'm kind of I'm very mortified for you. I'm so sorry.
Speaker 3 (12:45):
One of the chances.
Speaker 8 (12:46):
It was really really weird because, like I said, I've
been there a couple of months ago, and like he's
been my guynecologist for a while now, so like he.
Speaker 4 (12:55):
Knows me, he knows you.
Speaker 2 (12:58):
I know, I know, I know my Oh Okay, Scott,
this is a random question, but I think I might
also know your dad.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
Does he go by doctor Butterball? Is that not him?
You are not okay.
Speaker 2 (13:18):
If you're looking for somebody new, Butterball is your guys.
Speaker 5 (13:23):
Honestly, Like, I went and saw a guynecologist once who
during the exam was like, so I listened to your
radio show all the time, and he was trying to, like,
you know, make small talk.
Speaker 3 (13:34):
But it's just I need.
Speaker 5 (13:35):
Separate lives there, and I assume you need separate lives
when he comes to dating and your you guy know absolutely.
Speaker 2 (13:42):
Maybe it's only fair, Scott if you visit her father's
proctologist and then the two of you could be.
Speaker 4 (13:51):
Okay.
Speaker 6 (13:51):
I know you guys are laughing about this, but I'm
in shock at how coincidental this is.
Speaker 2 (13:57):
Yeah, I feel like, Eric, maybe you should have at
least hinted to Scott like something was up, told him something.
Speaker 3 (14:05):
I wouldn't put this on her.
Speaker 8 (14:07):
I mean, like, what was I gonna say, like your dad,
see my uncles and stirrups.
Speaker 2 (14:11):
Okay, nothing graphic.
Speaker 3 (14:15):
It's what every woman has.
Speaker 8 (14:17):
To do if it's any consolation. He said he'd give
you the green lights light. You mean, I don't know
what that means, Like you have to ask your dad, Scott.
Speaker 3 (14:27):
Whoa that just got creepy. You need to switch your
guy to college.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
I see it as a good thing. Yeah, dad gives
the thumbs up approval. You don't do whatever whatever finger
he approves.
Speaker 1 (14:46):
I'm just saying it sounds like maybe there's a chance.
Speaker 2 (14:48):
Here, and the only way to know is to ask Erica,
would you like, let's see, Erica, would you like to
go out one more time with Scott?
Speaker 1 (14:59):
We'd pay for I've said, We've never said this.
Speaker 8 (15:02):
I mean, I did really like him, but dude, go
out with him.
Speaker 3 (15:09):
Dump the doctor, getting your doctor.
Speaker 8 (15:11):
I could get a new doctor and like the Greek
plint thing. Maybe it just means I don't have any
STDs or anything.
Speaker 3 (15:16):
No, girl, No, it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter.
Speaker 8 (15:21):
I really want to, but I don't think it's the
best idea.
Speaker 1 (15:27):
Scott. I mean, how do you how do you feel
about that?
Speaker 6 (15:29):
Hearing that I'm gonna be honest, this is the one
time in my life that I am so happy that
she said no.
Speaker 3 (15:40):
Well it worked out, Scot.
Speaker 2 (15:42):
I know you saw you saw Erica and your dad whispering.
Were you able to read her lips?
Speaker 3 (15:49):
No?
Speaker 4 (15:51):
Is that not good?
Speaker 7 (15:53):
No?
Speaker 5 (15:54):
Yeah?
Speaker 8 (15:56):
Yeah, I'm I'm gonna hang up. Is that okay?
Speaker 1 (15:59):
Hold on before you go? Doctor Butterball is on the
other line.
Speaker 4 (16:03):
And.
Speaker 8 (16:08):
Like, yeah, I was talking to you.
Speaker 5 (16:13):
Freaking Jeffrey in the morning.
Speaker 2 (16:15):
I definitely think the most interesting part of that entire
call was learning that the dad was actually trying to
help her get out of the situation.
Speaker 1 (16:24):
Yeah. I thought it's been super clueless, didn't know what
was going on.
Speaker 2 (16:28):
He knew everything and was just trying to get out
of the situation.
Speaker 3 (16:32):
But you stop saying he knew everything, seen it all.
Speaker 7 (16:38):
Oh, I don't know.
Speaker 5 (16:40):
For me, it's like, if he was a real professional,
he would have just been upfront about the situation instead
of trying to sneak her out.
Speaker 1 (16:47):
Yeah, that sounds like that would have been more awkward.
Speaker 3 (16:49):
It's a really awkward.
Speaker 5 (16:51):
That's your business man, Like, I don't think that it's
awkward to you if you're a guy acologist.
Speaker 1 (16:57):
I don't know. I think he's a good guy.
Speaker 2 (16:58):
I'm curious, like guy know, Yeah.
Speaker 3 (17:01):
I think she still needs to not go on the
date and also switch her down. Yeah, I'm going to
go with both on that one.
Speaker 2 (17:07):
I'm curious, Brook, if your dad was a gynecologist, is
that something that you would be comfortable with.
Speaker 3 (17:13):
My husband's grandfather was a gynecologist.
Speaker 1 (17:15):
You would go to your husband's grandfather. I thought that's
what you were saying.
Speaker 5 (17:21):
But if he wanted to, you know, it doesn't bother
me that that's his profession.
Speaker 3 (17:24):
No, see my own father.
Speaker 1 (17:27):
Gross whatever. Fine, Okay, I'm not going to go into it.
Speaker 2 (17:31):
But this is but let's talk about dating again. If
you have a date that you went on that didn't
go the way you plan, you can always email the show.
Speaker 1 (17:39):
We'll call the person who wasn't
Speaker 7 (17:40):
Calling you back Brook and Jeffrey in the morning.
Second date, up date.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
We all want to hit redo sometimes in life. Oh yeah,
like Alexis wants to hit redo on her eyebrows.
Speaker 1 (00:11):
Sorry, I want her.
Speaker 3 (00:12):
To redo the stereot controls these.
Speaker 1 (00:19):
I haven't told you that yet, have I? Alexis? No, Jeff,
right now, I have a plan. Don't worry.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
Well, we'll talk about that later though, not about when
it comes to an awkward situation that happens during a
good date and you don't want to redo the whole night,
just redo that awkward moment.
Speaker 4 (00:36):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (00:37):
Yeah, that's why Scott emailed us for help. And Scott,
I know you and I have talked about Alexis's eyebrows,
but let's not focus on that right now. All right,
We're just here to talk about your date.
Speaker 5 (00:50):
No idea, bro, talk was going like that these days.
Speaker 2 (00:52):
Yeah, let's talk about your date, Scott. Who's the girl
that you went out with?
Speaker 4 (01:00):
Okay? Her name is Erica?
Speaker 1 (01:01):
Okay, normal eyebrows?
Speaker 6 (01:04):
No, not at all exceptional?
Speaker 1 (01:08):
I was over had like crazy brows. So what did
you and Erica do for your date?
Speaker 4 (01:15):
Well, we met online and we went to dinner. Okay,
nice place. Everything's going great.
Speaker 6 (01:22):
I go to wash my hands and I came out
and I had like a napkin slash paper towel in
between my fly, like it was just.
Speaker 3 (01:30):
Hanging Wait, wait in your pants.
Speaker 1 (01:34):
Yeah, because I poking out through the zipper.
Speaker 3 (01:37):
Wait, do you guys wipe that?
Speaker 2 (01:38):
No, on his lap, because he's a gentleman at dinner,
and then it got caught in the zipper.
Speaker 3 (01:44):
You're a super.
Speaker 6 (01:46):
It was a nice restaurant, so they don't have like
paper towels. They have a nice linen type thing. So
after I washed my hands, I have it in my
hand and I noticed my.
Speaker 4 (01:53):
Fly was still down, so I dipped it up and
I just walked.
Speaker 1 (01:55):
Out and it was stuck in there.
Speaker 4 (01:58):
It was and I just walked out, didn't even know it.
Speaker 6 (02:01):
And I'm about halfway and I see her face look
at me and then look down and then look back
at me.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
He's to show me the most inappropriate magic trick.
Speaker 5 (02:10):
That and you're feeling real confident at that point.
Speaker 3 (02:13):
Oh you could see it.
Speaker 6 (02:15):
Wow, I did that thing where you turn around because
obviously she's looking at something else.
Speaker 4 (02:20):
Yeah, And I was like what And then I looked down. Oh,
and I see it, and what do you do? I
should have turned around, just pulled it out.
Speaker 1 (02:29):
No, don't pull it.
Speaker 5 (02:31):
Yeah, pull it out of the zipper, like it can't
be that hard.
Speaker 3 (02:35):
What did you do?
Speaker 6 (02:36):
Here's what popped into my stupid brain. I thought, why
don't we pull it out like a magician, just keep
being being keeping and pulled it out.
Speaker 1 (02:48):
Like one of those never ending scarves up your sleeves.
I love handkerchief.
Speaker 3 (02:53):
Huh that's interesting.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
Was she impressed?
Speaker 4 (02:57):
She started laughing.
Speaker 3 (02:59):
Maybe you knew your audience, you know.
Speaker 6 (03:01):
I think she thinks that I did the napkin thing
on purpose to be funny. But yeah, I did not,
but I totally went with it. And I'm like, all right,
let's go with that.
Speaker 4 (03:12):
Yes, it's hilarious.
Speaker 5 (03:18):
Yeah, you painted this like it was this horrible moment,
but actually it looked like it worked to your benefit
on the date.
Speaker 6 (03:25):
Yeah, I'm not done yet.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
Oh those are more embarrassing.
Speaker 6 (03:30):
So I invited her back to my place, okay, okay,
and she says yes.
Speaker 4 (03:35):
I'm like all right, I'm sweet.
Speaker 6 (03:38):
I opened the door and standing there is my dad,
Oh at your place?
Speaker 4 (03:44):
At my place?
Speaker 3 (03:48):
Oh? Why is your dad inside your apartment?
Speaker 4 (03:52):
He just came over.
Speaker 6 (03:53):
He didn't tell me.
Speaker 4 (03:54):
You just wanted to come over key.
Speaker 5 (03:58):
No, obviously she's not to believe that it's your house.
She's gonna think unless it's like a one bedroom apartment.
Speaker 4 (04:04):
No, I've got her two bedrooms. So I was like, Dad,
what are you doing here? And he's I just wanted
to come vivid Ooh she's pretty.
Speaker 5 (04:11):
Who's this?
Speaker 7 (04:14):
Hope?
Speaker 1 (04:15):
I'm not ruined in your game?
Speaker 4 (04:16):
Son.
Speaker 1 (04:18):
What was Erica's reaction?
Speaker 4 (04:19):
Could you read that she was a little uncomfortable, like
hot high?
Speaker 1 (04:23):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (04:24):
Yeah, she'd be shocked.
Speaker 5 (04:26):
I mean she could obviously sense how shocked you were
though too right, Yeah, I hope so.
Speaker 6 (04:31):
And at one point I decided, all right, let me
get some drinks.
Speaker 4 (04:34):
Maybe I can ease the pain. And he's gonna leave soon.
Speaker 6 (04:36):
So I left them alone for I don't know five minutes.
They were talking okay, And I came back and her
vibe was completely different.
Speaker 3 (04:45):
Oh, Dad, she's already meeting the parents like so much.
Speaker 5 (04:51):
It's your dad, one of those dads that is like
super embarrassing, likes to tell horrible stories about you.
Speaker 4 (04:56):
You mean, yes, he's the quintessential dad joke. Dad, Now
we know where you got.
Speaker 5 (05:04):
The napkin trick idea apple and tree there?
Speaker 1 (05:08):
How did you and Erica and your dad leave things?
Speaker 4 (05:11):
So I'm trying to give hints. All right, Dad, good
to see you. Good to see you. He just plops
down on the couch. It's like, all right, let's watch
a movie.
Speaker 3 (05:22):
Do you see I made two drinks dad.
Speaker 6 (05:27):
Erica just like you know what, I've got an early morning. Yeah,
I'm gonna take off.
Speaker 3 (05:32):
I mean, you can't blame her.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
I'm sure you wanted to leave too.
Speaker 6 (05:35):
Oh I did, And so I start walking her out
and he goes, no.
Speaker 4 (05:39):
We're about to watch Harry Potter come back.
Speaker 1 (05:43):
Okay, that would have worked on me.
Speaker 6 (05:47):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (05:48):
Did you get a chance to apologize?
Speaker 4 (05:51):
But I have not heard from her since?
Speaker 3 (05:54):
Okay, that's hard, Dad, Hill to climb up up Now.
Speaker 2 (05:57):
I see why you would want to redo a few
of those moments from the night. And we can't really
redo them, but we can at least try and get
you a redo on a second date.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
So we're gonna play a song. We'll come back.
Speaker 3 (06:08):
Will you call his dad two?
Speaker 1 (06:11):
I think we've dealt with enough embarrassing moments.
Speaker 7 (06:13):
All right, let's just.
Speaker 2 (06:14):
Try and focus on some positives. We'll call Erica and
try and get your second date updates.
Speaker 7 (06:17):
Right after this second date update.
Speaker 2 (06:22):
The surprise Dad, that's not just the name of my
go to move for my bingo dates, it's what actually
happened to one of our listeners, Scott recently during his
first date with Erica. Yeah, because they went back to
his place at the end of the night, and who
was waiting there inside the door but his old pop
ready to crack a bruski and watch some Harry Potter
(06:44):
with his boy.
Speaker 3 (06:45):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (06:46):
So obviously that situation put a damper on the romance,
and ever since, Erica is not responding when Scott reaches
out hoping to get another date. So we're gonna step
in kind of like his dad did try and get
that second date for Scott.
Speaker 1 (07:01):
Feeling ready for this?
Speaker 4 (07:02):
Oh yeah, that was.
Speaker 3 (07:05):
A painful recap, Scott, how.
Speaker 4 (07:07):
Are you feeling, I'm I'm hopeful.
Speaker 7 (07:10):
Okay, that's good, but a little nervous.
Speaker 3 (07:14):
Yeah, you know, all of.
Speaker 5 (07:15):
This was out of your control. I think anyone would
be empathetic of that. You know, we all have cringe
worthy parents.
Speaker 2 (07:22):
Oh yeah, and before we call her, Scott, you said
that you noticed Erica was talking to your dad for
a few minutes while you were in the other room.
Did you ever ask your dad what he said to her?
Speaker 4 (07:32):
I did, Hey, what what happened to you? I don't know,
we just made some small talk.
Speaker 3 (07:36):
Oh oh, and you just took that at face value?
Speaker 2 (07:39):
Oh god, I mean, there's no way that your dad
would ever swoop in on your dates.
Speaker 4 (07:44):
You're thinking, No.
Speaker 5 (07:49):
I thought he was just going to tell like a
terrible story about like how he got stood up on
prom or something like that.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
Or maybe he asked her like if she was in
gryffindor Slytherin something.
Speaker 1 (07:59):
I mean, let's just.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
Call Erica and find out what happened. We're going to
dial the number right now and see what she has
to say. Let's do this, you ready, Scott?
Speaker 4 (08:06):
All right, Let's do this for better or for worse?
Speaker 7 (08:08):
All right, here we go, Helen.
Speaker 1 (08:20):
Hey, is this Erica?
Speaker 6 (08:22):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (08:23):
Who's this?
Speaker 2 (08:25):
Is Jeff from the radio show Brook and Jeffrey in
the Morning. We're looking for the biggest Harry Potter fans.
Speaker 7 (08:30):
In the area.
Speaker 1 (08:33):
You a potterhead?
Speaker 8 (08:34):
Oh god, I like it, But I'm not like a
crazy Wait what is this about?
Speaker 4 (08:41):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (08:42):
Exactly, It's not about that.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
That's just a side question.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
The real question that we want to ask about is
your date the other night with a guy named Scott.
Speaker 5 (08:51):
Oh, yeah, it's probably I mean, that's okay.
Speaker 3 (08:56):
It's probably a hard date to forget.
Speaker 2 (08:59):
We're doing something something called a second date update. We're
trying to help Scott figure out what went wrong when
you two hung out together.
Speaker 5 (09:06):
And to be fair, Scott definitely has some ideas of what.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
Are or maybe nothing went wrong and it's something totally
unrelated to that night.
Speaker 1 (09:14):
We can focus on what went right.
Speaker 3 (09:16):
I heard he made you laugh.
Speaker 8 (09:20):
I'm not understanding the second date thing, like he was
just wanting to know my story.
Speaker 2 (09:25):
Yeah, because Scott told us his version of the story
and he knows that afterwards you haven't been responding to him,
and he's just trying to figure out the reason why.
Speaker 8 (09:36):
I don't know how much he told you.
Speaker 1 (09:39):
He told us about a little napkin trick that he
showed you.
Speaker 3 (09:42):
And that you thought was funny.
Speaker 8 (09:44):
Yeah, it was pretty risky, Like I don't know how
if he knew that I would laugh, Like, you know,
he came out in the bathroom with like a tissue
and a zipper.
Speaker 5 (09:55):
Yeah, but the risk paid off, right, risk great?
Speaker 3 (09:59):
Reward.
Speaker 8 (10:00):
I thought it was hilarious and like, I really really
like funny guys.
Speaker 7 (10:04):
Cool.
Speaker 2 (10:05):
Yeah, so I'm going to fast forward from dinner to
Scott's house. What was your reaction when you saw his
dad was waking, Yeah, this is what I.
Speaker 3 (10:13):
Want to go because we heard that you can be honest.
Speaker 8 (10:17):
Well, so originally when I said I go back to
his place, like I actually was totally open to hook
up with him.
Speaker 3 (10:26):
But that's gonna hurt even more.
Speaker 8 (10:32):
When he opened the door and his dad was there,
Oh my god. I can't tell you how awkward that was.
Yet the worst part is I knew his dad.
Speaker 2 (10:45):
Wait, what, dad, you're his daughter from another secret family.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
When we tell Scott that his dad has another family.
Speaker 3 (10:58):
Let her talk? What do you mean he knows you
knew his dad.
Speaker 8 (11:02):
He's my gynecologist, is your special doctor. So he clearly
recognized me, and like I knew him like I had
just got in like a couple of months ago.
Speaker 3 (11:17):
Good news.
Speaker 5 (11:18):
He recognized your face and not. But he's a professional.
I mean, like, come on, this guy's a doctor.
Speaker 1 (11:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (11:32):
It's like the super awkward thing.
Speaker 1 (11:35):
He's like all casual, just like good to see you.
Speaker 5 (11:38):
He's gonna be worse if you have to go in
for an STD after.
Speaker 8 (11:42):
Oh my god. No, I'm trying my best. And at
one point, like I just asked Scott to get me
a drink, and like I talked to the dad and
he's like, don't worry, it's patient confidentiality. Yeah, And I
just asked him, like if he could help me get
out of the situation, if you can just say, like, hey, Scott,
let's watch a movie so I can just leave. Way
(12:04):
too awkward.
Speaker 2 (12:06):
I guess dad wasn't as clueless as we thought he was.
He was actually trying to help her out.
Speaker 3 (12:11):
Oh my god, that is so hard.
Speaker 2 (12:14):
I guess the really clueless person is probably Scott, who
we should let you know where Erica is on the
other line listening right now and wants to talk to you.
Speaker 8 (12:23):
Wait wait, wait what it's.
Speaker 1 (12:24):
Okay, Scott's there, Thank Scott.
Speaker 4 (12:27):
What's going on right now?
Speaker 3 (12:30):
Oh my god, Why couldn't your dad have been a Dennis?
Speaker 4 (12:35):
Oh god, Oh my god. I'm mortified. But honestly, Erica,
I'm kind of I'm very mortified for you. I'm so sorry.
Speaker 3 (12:45):
One of the chances.
Speaker 8 (12:46):
It was really really weird because, like I said, I've
been there a couple of months ago, and like he's
been my guynecologist for a while now, so like he.
Speaker 4 (12:55):
Knows me, he knows you.
Speaker 2 (12:58):
I know, I know, I know my Oh Okay, Scott,
this is a random question, but I think I might
also know your dad.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
Does he go by doctor Butterball? Is that not him?
You are not okay.
Speaker 2 (13:18):
If you're looking for somebody new, Butterball is your guys.
Speaker 5 (13:23):
Honestly, Like, I went and saw a guynecologist once who
during the exam was like, so I listened to your
radio show all the time, and he was trying to, like,
you know, make small talk.
Speaker 3 (13:34):
But it's just I need.
Speaker 5 (13:35):
Separate lives there, and I assume you need separate lives
when he comes to dating and your you guy know absolutely.
Speaker 2 (13:42):
Maybe it's only fair, Scott if you visit her father's
proctologist and then the two of you could be.
Speaker 4 (13:51):
Okay.
Speaker 6 (13:51):
I know you guys are laughing about this, but I'm
in shock at how coincidental this is.
Speaker 2 (13:57):
Yeah, I feel like, Eric, maybe you should have at
least hinted to Scott like something was up, told him something.
Speaker 3 (14:05):
I wouldn't put this on her.
Speaker 8 (14:07):
I mean, like, what was I gonna say, like your dad,
see my uncles and stirrups.
Speaker 2 (14:11):
Okay, nothing graphic.
Speaker 3 (14:15):
It's what every woman has.
Speaker 8 (14:17):
To do if it's any consolation. He said he'd give
you the green lights light. You mean, I don't know
what that means, Like you have to ask your dad, Scott.
Speaker 3 (14:27):
Whoa that just got creepy. You need to switch your
guy to college.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
I see it as a good thing. Yeah, dad gives
the thumbs up approval. You don't do whatever whatever finger
he approves.
Speaker 1 (14:46):
I'm just saying it sounds like maybe there's a chance.
Speaker 2 (14:48):
Here, and the only way to know is to ask Erica,
would you like, let's see, Erica, would you like to
go out one more time with Scott?
Speaker 1 (14:59):
We'd pay for I've said, We've never said this.
Speaker 8 (15:02):
I mean, I did really like him, but dude, go
out with him.
Speaker 3 (15:09):
Dump the doctor, getting your doctor.
Speaker 8 (15:11):
I could get a new doctor and like the Greek
plint thing. Maybe it just means I don't have any
STDs or anything.
Speaker 3 (15:16):
No, girl, No, it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter.
Speaker 8 (15:21):
I really want to, but I don't think it's the
best idea.
Speaker 1 (15:27):
Scott. I mean, how do you how do you feel
about that?
Speaker 6 (15:29):
Hearing that I'm gonna be honest, this is the one
time in my life that I am so happy that
she said no.
Speaker 3 (15:40):
Well it worked out, Scot.
Speaker 2 (15:42):
I know you saw you saw Erica and your dad whispering.
Were you able to read her lips?
Speaker 3 (15:49):
No?
Speaker 4 (15:51):
Is that not good?
Speaker 7 (15:53):
No?
Speaker 5 (15:54):
Yeah?
Speaker 8 (15:56):
Yeah, I'm I'm gonna hang up. Is that okay?
Speaker 1 (15:59):
Hold on before you go? Doctor Butterball is on the
other line.
Speaker 4 (16:03):
And.
Speaker 8 (16:08):
Like, yeah, I was talking to you.
Speaker 5 (16:13):
Freaking Jeffrey in the morning.
Speaker 2 (16:15):
I definitely think the most interesting part of that entire
call was learning that the dad was actually trying to
help her get out of the situation.
Speaker 1 (16:24):
Yeah. I thought it's been super clueless, didn't know what
was going on.
Speaker 2 (16:28):
He knew everything and was just trying to get out
of the situation.
Speaker 3 (16:32):
But you stop saying he knew everything, seen it all.
Speaker 7 (16:38):
Oh, I don't know.
Speaker 5 (16:40):
For me, it's like, if he was a real professional,
he would have just been upfront about the situation instead
of trying to sneak her out.
Speaker 1 (16:47):
Yeah, that sounds like that would have been more awkward.
Speaker 3 (16:49):
It's a really awkward.
Speaker 5 (16:51):
That's your business man, Like, I don't think that it's
awkward to you if you're a guy acologist.
Speaker 1 (16:57):
I don't know. I think he's a good guy.
Speaker 2 (16:58):
I'm curious, like guy know, Yeah.
Speaker 3 (17:01):
I think she still needs to not go on the
date and also switch her down. Yeah, I'm going to
go with both on that one.
Speaker 2 (17:07):
I'm curious, Brook, if your dad was a gynecologist, is
that something that you would be comfortable with.
Speaker 3 (17:13):
My husband's grandfather was a gynecologist.
Speaker 1 (17:15):
You would go to your husband's grandfather. I thought that's
what you were saying.
Speaker 5 (17:21):
But if he wanted to, you know, it doesn't bother
me that that's his profession.
Speaker 3 (17:24):
No, see my own father.
Speaker 1 (17:27):
Gross whatever. Fine, Okay, I'm not going to go into it.
Speaker 2 (17:31):
But this is but let's talk about dating again. If
you have a date that you went on that didn't
go the way you plan, you can always email the show.
Speaker 1 (17:39):
We'll call the person who wasn't
Speaker 7 (17:40):
Calling you back Brook and Jeffrey in the morning.
