Speaker 1 (00:01):
Welcome to the Second Date podcast, and we are counting
down the top second dates of twenty twenty five.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
Yes, number seven, that's right. And I think there's fewer
and fewer rom com movies that are being made now
because people just don't meet in real life anymore.
Speaker 3 (00:14):
Oh, that's actually like a meet cute.
Speaker 4 (00:17):
Swiping isn't cute so many movies.
Speaker 2 (00:20):
Yeah, it's just not even believable to see it on
the screen. And you can't have a realistic romantic scene
with a drunk dude at two am sliding into a
hot girls DX. They just don't make those films. That's
why today's call was so rare. One of our listeners
turned a super awkward moment into an actual meet cute
that seemed almost too perfect, and you're going to hear
(00:42):
it in your Second Date Update number seven of the
year right now, Second Date Updated. There's a lot of
fun things in life that begin with the word street, street, street, magic,
street tacos.
Speaker 3 (00:58):
Okay, Jeff, I'm getting street meets.
Speaker 2 (01:01):
Yeah, street walkers, right, I feel like I do that.
I walk down a lot of streets.
Speaker 5 (01:07):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (01:10):
Well, today we're going to talk to a street dater.
Speaker 3 (01:13):
Jeffs like why are people giving me money for you?
Speaker 2 (01:16):
I must have really good hair today. But again, this
guy says he's a street dater. He met someone will well,
not stereotypically, but he met somebody while out on the street. Oh, okay,
that's what I met. His name is Drew street Walker. Yeah,
technically Drew street Walker too.
Speaker 6 (01:34):
I think I walked the streets about as much as
everybody else around here.
Speaker 4 (01:37):
Yeah, he's a humble street walk Jeff's neighborhood.
Speaker 7 (01:41):
Okay, we should probably using that phrase.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
But apparently you met somebody while just walking out and
about how did that happen?
Speaker 5 (01:48):
Yeah?
Speaker 6 (01:48):
I was at a bookstore locally, and I like to read.
So I'm leaving the bookstore and you know, I have
my face buried in the book as I'm walking, and
I knock into this woman.
Speaker 3 (01:58):
Oh that's kind of a cute. It sounded like out
of a movie. The bookstore is involved.
Speaker 5 (02:04):
Clumsy, her bag fell, I helped her, and then I
gave her a little flirt.
Speaker 7 (02:08):
Wait, wait, did ever really happen in slow motion?
Speaker 3 (02:10):
I think he's joking about that part.
Speaker 2 (02:12):
I know, Yeah, I imagine the bag falling. He grabbed it,
he picked it up, he ran gotcha. You just knocked
her bag out of her hand by accident.
Speaker 5 (02:23):
Yeah, by accident.
Speaker 3 (02:24):
Oh you really did knock the bag over.
Speaker 5 (02:26):
Yeah, we bumped into each other. It was a pretty
big bump, and you know, everything just kind of flew
all over the place. I helped. There's some stuff fell
out of.
Speaker 6 (02:31):
Her bag, and I said, you know, it's usually old
ladies I knock over and then I just move on and.
Speaker 2 (02:38):
Really funny he.
Speaker 3 (02:41):
Beats him with her I get the joke.
Speaker 6 (02:47):
So then we started walking and we started going in
the same direction. So I just started doing a little
more like joking, like.
Speaker 5 (02:53):
You following me? And she was like, no, you following me?
And we laughed again. Trying to build like a little rapport.
Speaker 7 (03:00):
Bro, Like, you're turning like kind of a bad situation
or a weird situation into like something positive.
Speaker 3 (03:05):
What point were you able to get her name?
Speaker 6 (03:08):
I did ask her name, but we walked a little
more and we'd love to know the name.
Speaker 7 (03:13):
She's like, don't tell anybody what my real name is.
Speaker 5 (03:15):
That name is Sonia.
Speaker 2 (03:17):
Okay, So you and Sonya are just accidentally walking in
the same direction and kind of flirting with each other.
Speaker 6 (03:22):
It sounds like, yeah, We eventually get to a park
and we start walking through the park.
Speaker 2 (03:27):
What when you got into the park? Is that when
you took her bag?
Speaker 6 (03:30):
Then that's when I knocked her over and ran Okay.
Speaker 2 (03:34):
Yeah, gotcha more escape routes than here.
Speaker 1 (03:40):
Did you really have to go to the same way
or were you just pretending so you could plants?
Speaker 3 (03:45):
Like you both just had free time to keep walking.
Speaker 7 (03:47):
Oh yeah, that's true too.
Speaker 5 (03:48):
I walked through that park all the time. Yeah.
Speaker 6 (03:50):
No, this isn't like the first I was going in
that direction anyway. So it's just like a very.
Speaker 5 (03:55):
Good meat cute.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
Okay.
Speaker 6 (03:57):
Eventually we came across a sketch artist and he flagged
us down.
Speaker 5 (04:01):
He was like, hey, you guys want to get a picture.
You thought we were a couple?
Speaker 3 (04:05):
Wait did you get a character drive?
Speaker 5 (04:07):
Oh look I was down, but she wasn't. Okay, I
think first, I think was freak down.
Speaker 2 (04:13):
Yeah, it sounds there's so many like perfect things that
are happening to you along the way on this short walk.
You didn't set this whole thing up. It sounds like,
how could he do?
Speaker 5 (04:23):
No, I didn't set anything up.
Speaker 2 (04:25):
Well, you just have a friend who's like in the park,
with a thing, and he's like, I'm just going to
take her this way.
Speaker 5 (04:29):
I didn't say it was a friend. It was just
a sketch artist. He wasn't a friendly.
Speaker 3 (04:33):
The most that.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
Would be the most elaborate setup ever. You accidentally run
into somebody and then suddenly you call your buddy when
she's not looking, who happens to be an artist, and
tell him.
Speaker 3 (04:42):
To set up quickly in the park.
Speaker 7 (04:43):
I really want to sit down with her for forty
five minutes. This stranger.
Speaker 2 (04:47):
I'm just saying. We've heard people that have like orchestrated
all sorts of weird things in order to make that's true, but.
Speaker 7 (04:52):
This doesn't sound like that job.
Speaker 3 (04:54):
How long is this walk going on.
Speaker 6 (04:56):
We're about twenty minutes into the walk. By the time
she said no to the picture way through the park
and we got to the end of the park, it
was probably about a half an hour.
Speaker 5 (05:06):
We were together and I got a good vibe.
Speaker 6 (05:08):
So I asked her number to go out, and she
gave me a number, and the date just hasn't materialized.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
Ince said, Okay, have you guys talked via text or
phone call?
Speaker 5 (05:19):
No? Nothing.
Speaker 6 (05:20):
I've tried to call a few times, I've lost a
few messages.
Speaker 3 (05:23):
I automatically think that she gave you a fake number.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
Oh, there's no response.
Speaker 5 (05:27):
Yeah, it was her voice on the voicemail it okay, okay, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3 (05:32):
She gave you the numbers. So I'm assuming she's single.
Did you specifically ask her?
Speaker 6 (05:37):
I didn't ask her if she was dating anyone. No,
but I left a few voicemails and she hasn't answered.
Speaker 3 (05:43):
How many yeah?
Speaker 5 (05:44):
Three? Maybe four?
Speaker 3 (05:46):
Oh.
Speaker 7 (05:48):
I don't think I called a girlfriend that many times
in one year.
Speaker 3 (05:51):
I think my mom calls me.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
He felt the connection. So wheneveryone's different.
Speaker 7 (05:56):
Some people love being on the phone.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
So I'm glad you take a break from your extent
of book reading in order to help reach out to
the show. And we're going to try and help you
call this girl. What's her name, Sonya? So yeah, Sonyr Okay,
we'll reach We'll reach out to Sonia, and we'll do
your second date update right after this hold on second
date update. If I hadn't read it on the back
(06:18):
of a Blockbuster movie sleeve, I still wouldn't believe it.
But an accidental sidewalk bumping turned into your classic Hallmark
street walker love story.
Speaker 3 (06:30):
Again with the term. Yeah, that's the wrong use.
Speaker 7 (06:33):
We're trying to make it sound better than it is.
Speaker 3 (06:36):
It's not a Hallmark movie. I'll tell you that one.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
It fits in this scenario because our listener Drew accidentally
ran into a woman outside of a bookstore, knocked over
her bag, and then turned that awkward moment into a
twenty five minute stroll through a local.
Speaker 1 (06:49):
Park thirty I believe. I mean, those five minutes are
going to be precious. When it's only a short amount
of time, you have to get fair.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
And it all seems too perfect to be true, and
maybe was because she's not responding to any of his messages.
Speaker 7 (07:03):
It's always the park scene. Yeah, ruins something in that.
Speaker 4 (07:06):
I mean he left Okay, here's the thing. You left
four voicemails. Yeah, we have not asked what was in
the voicemails.
Speaker 5 (07:14):
I just told her, Hey, it's me Drew by the park.
You need a lot of guys by the park. I mean,
it's true, not even from the park, like the guy
that's adjacent.
Speaker 2 (07:22):
Maybe she thinks you live in the park. After that
that there's a chance though, that if she's not responding
to anything, maybe she wasn't even real, He was real?
Are you sure that would make me crazy?
Speaker 7 (07:36):
Exactly?
Speaker 3 (07:37):
What could just mean? You have a bad drug habit?
Speaker 2 (07:39):
Yeah, we're from the park. Were you microdosing that day? No,
Homark hasn't done that yet. A microdosing Christmas lead to this? Well,
if you over micro dose?
Speaker 7 (07:50):
Yeah, no, wonder.
Speaker 3 (07:52):
One of those kids still in the DARE program.
Speaker 7 (07:55):
I signed that contract.
Speaker 2 (07:57):
Let's let's have all the street walkers unite because we're
gonna call and we're going to get an answer from
this woman to figure out what actually happened, if she's real,
and hopefully if there's an explanation a lot of.
Speaker 1 (08:06):
Kids listening who use that term wrong for the next Christmas.
Speaker 2 (08:13):
This is the education you get here. I'm going to
die of the number right now here we go. Hello,
it sounds real, Jeff, It sounds like a person. Is
this Sonya?
Speaker 5 (08:32):
Yes?
Speaker 3 (08:32):
This is Sonya.
Speaker 5 (08:33):
Who's this? Hey?
Speaker 2 (08:35):
Sonya. We're a radio show called Brook and Jeffrey in
the Morning.
Speaker 7 (08:37):
Good morning, Hi, Hi, Hey, what's this about.
Speaker 2 (08:43):
This is a segment that we do on our show.
It's called a second Date Update, and we're trying to
help out one of our listeners. His name is Drew
who you met the other day outside of a bookstore.
Speaker 3 (08:56):
Did you just laugh?
Speaker 8 (08:58):
Are you sorry? I just I can't believe that you're
calling about him.
Speaker 3 (09:03):
What you remember?
Speaker 4 (09:04):
Remember Drew knocked you over on accident outside the bookstore?
Speaker 5 (09:08):
Yeah?
Speaker 8 (09:09):
Yeah, I remember Drew.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
Okay, Well that's great because he said there was like
a meet cute type of situation that happened on the street,
and then you guys went through a park for a bit.
He left a few messages.
Speaker 8 (09:21):
Yeah, I mean that did happen, and I was actually
open to seeing him again. That's for the messages. The
messages are the problems.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
Well, we asked him about the messages, and he basically,
according to him, he said, it was basically, hey, this
is Drew from the park. Remember I'm Drew.
Speaker 6 (09:38):
Is that what he said? Yeah?
Speaker 5 (09:39):
Well summary interesting?
Speaker 3 (09:42):
Oh no, I'm not curious.
Speaker 8 (09:44):
Like he left me one message that was so ridiculous.
I actually my roommate and I have been like dying
laughing about it. Oh. I actually I wrote it down.
Speaker 3 (09:55):
Wait you wrote down the message because it was that
funny to you?
Speaker 5 (09:58):
Ye?
Speaker 2 (09:59):
Wow, it would it be okay if we know what
the message said?
Speaker 3 (10:02):
Oh?
Speaker 8 (10:03):
Absolutely, I'd love to read.
Speaker 2 (10:04):
It to you because we haven't we haven't heard anything
about it. We just know there was a bunch of messages.
Speaker 3 (10:09):
She is delighted to Yeah, she is.
Speaker 8 (10:12):
Okay, so he told me, he said, I left you
a message you didn't respond to, and I don't like
leaving second messages. But I like you. You're very elegant,
You're very attractive. But I don't play that game. If
(10:33):
I don't hear back by three pm tomorrow, well I'm
no longer interested.
Speaker 3 (10:43):
Because he called us.
Speaker 7 (10:44):
Yeah, it didn't mean it.
Speaker 8 (10:47):
Then she goes on to explain why I should.
Speaker 3 (10:50):
Call him some positives.
Speaker 8 (10:53):
That's good, he says, I'm very smart, I'm great in bed. Okay,
it makes a lot of money.
Speaker 7 (11:05):
But something everybody says.
Speaker 4 (11:07):
I mean, it's one of those things when you say
it's hard to believe.
Speaker 7 (11:10):
It's like discovering.
Speaker 8 (11:12):
So then he says, believe it or not, I'm a
complete catch. I'm one of the only men in the
city that has no issues.
Speaker 7 (11:24):
Yeah, exactly, I'm the best one.
Speaker 3 (11:26):
I have yet to find a person that doesn't have issues.
Speaker 7 (11:29):
Is like a child trying to do reverse psychology.
Speaker 3 (11:32):
Is that finally the end of the message.
Speaker 8 (11:36):
So I don't know what your situation is if you're
just insecure, or if you're on medication half way psychologically
normal and you haven't called me because something bad happened
in your life and you just needed a few days.
Speaker 4 (11:54):
He chet hinge, so specific started out the hinge, then
it got a little better.
Speaker 7 (12:01):
Now we're back, now we're unhinged again.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
Okay. Yeah, So clearly there was a lot happening in
that message, and it could help to get insight into
what he.
Speaker 3 (12:10):
Meant by it, because it's embarrassed right now.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
Maybe because Sonya, he is on the other line listening.
We've got Drew waiting to talk to you.
Speaker 6 (12:18):
Oh hey, hey, Sony, Hey hey.
Speaker 5 (12:23):
Is there something that I said that wasn't true? Was
there something that I said on that voice now that
wasn't That was a lie?
Speaker 3 (12:29):
What?
Speaker 5 (12:30):
Yeah, you can't say that, dude.
Speaker 7 (12:32):
You're coming to kind of hot, Yeah, a little bit.
Speaker 3 (12:35):
I think defensive, no apology.
Speaker 8 (12:37):
Well I'm sorry, Drew. I just like we met for
thirty minutes, we didn't even go on a real date,
and then all of this you're going on about how
great you are, and then you start to come for
me and like blame me for not calling you back.
I just found it all to be a little much
for someone that like.
Speaker 6 (12:53):
I'm know you agree that I'm right, So what was
the problem?
Speaker 5 (12:56):
You don't you don't appreciate being direct. You don't like
guys who are direct. I'm direct, You're making a lot
of money. I'm smart and I'm good in bed being direct.
Speaker 8 (13:09):
More and more doubtful talking about you.
Speaker 6 (13:11):
Know, you're all laughing now, but you won't be You'll
be crying later when I'm out of your life. That's
what's gonna happen if you don't make the right move.
Speaker 7 (13:20):
I mean, I gotta find out how good you are
in bed.
Speaker 5 (13:22):
Bro, So you didn't call me back was really stupid.
Speaker 6 (13:27):
I mean, come on, people like me who are good
in bed and smart and stuff.
Speaker 3 (13:31):
You know, why do you leave with that?
Speaker 5 (13:34):
Stupid person? Is going to give that up?
Speaker 2 (13:36):
I think he's making.
Speaker 5 (13:41):
You know. You know, in this city there are no men,
and I'm a total catch.
Speaker 6 (13:45):
You know that good man.
Speaker 2 (13:46):
I kind of agree with him on that.
Speaker 3 (13:48):
I don't know.
Speaker 8 (13:49):
I don't know, Drew. I feel like the people who
are actually good in bed don't go around talking about
how good they are in bed. I'm not getting the
best vibes from you to be like, it just feels
like that.
Speaker 5 (14:02):
You haven't bragged about being good in bed.
Speaker 2 (14:04):
Yeah, you're not supposed to.
Speaker 3 (14:06):
What are you talking about?
Speaker 2 (14:07):
Listen to any hip hop music? They're all about that.
Speaker 3 (14:09):
Are we going to ignore the rest of the text about.
Speaker 4 (14:14):
What was that?
Speaker 5 (14:16):
I saw her beg, her begs.
Speaker 6 (14:17):
Everything fell everywhere I saw her meds.
Speaker 4 (14:23):
You read everyone's on medications on medication.
Speaker 5 (14:28):
You sound crazy smart and well read, Sonya.
Speaker 4 (14:33):
I thought you were going to come to Drew. This
is honestly, this is shocking to be I thought we
were going to come to Drew and you were going
to be humiliated that this voicemail.
Speaker 3 (14:40):
Was out there.
Speaker 2 (14:41):
But like only somebody who's addicted to meds would be humiliated.
He's perfect, broke.
Speaker 1 (14:46):
Yeah, with no narcissistic tendencies at all.
Speaker 5 (14:50):
You know, I don't clearly good, Sonya?
Speaker 2 (14:54):
Was he read? Are you on the verge of tears
right now?
Speaker 8 (14:57):
I'm just really heartbroken that it can't be with this perfect.
Speaker 6 (15:03):
I'm glad that you can finally admit it.
Speaker 2 (15:05):
Well, Sonya, don't give up yet, because I'm going to
give you a second chance right now by offering to
send you out with the only perfect man in the
entire city with no issues, with no issues.
Speaker 6 (15:18):
She would do that if she went on a date,
if she called me back like a normal person, I
wouldn't have to do what happened. But he just called
me back like a normal person.
Speaker 2 (15:25):
Sonya. It's up to you if you'd like to see
him again or not yelled at a little bit. It's
your choice.
Speaker 8 (15:30):
I appreciate the offer, but I really I'm really not
into theismo.
Speaker 3 (15:39):
Shocking.
Speaker 2 (15:39):
She's talking about me though there like and I get that,
but what about Drew?
Speaker 3 (15:44):
That was really shocking?
Speaker 5 (15:46):
I say not to Drew.
Speaker 2 (15:47):
Also, wow, really, Sonya, I'll tell her.
Speaker 6 (15:57):
True.
Speaker 2 (15:57):
If this woman can't see how perfect you are, then
she and deserve you.
Speaker 4 (16:01):
Wow.
Speaker 5 (16:01):
Thank you.
Speaker 1 (16:02):
You can't read sarcasm, jes he's really thanking you, jeff
I don't read sarcasm.
Speaker 2 (16:08):
Yeah, you hear it, Brooke exactly. Thank you, Drew, thank you.
Speaker 7 (16:14):
He really is.
Speaker 2 (16:16):
Brook Jeffrey in the morning. I feel like we should
have asked that guy in part one, how confident are
you in getting a date one to ten?
Speaker 3 (16:24):
Oh my god.
Speaker 2 (16:26):
I felt like maybe he was a four going into it.
He would have said he'd like thirty.
Speaker 3 (16:31):
Yeah, here's the thing.
Speaker 4 (16:32):
He acts so confident, but we never brought up the
fact that on message too, he said he'd never be
interested again if she didn't call him back, and yet
he was still.
Speaker 6 (16:39):
On the phone.
Speaker 3 (16:40):
Yeah, still left her more voicemails. Yeah still, I mean,
all of what he was saying is not believable.
Speaker 7 (16:46):
It's like a guy who doesn't know how to play
the game. But someone told him right like, hey, if
you ignore a girl or if you're just this.
Speaker 3 (16:53):
And they love ultimatum.
Speaker 2 (16:55):
Yeah, yeah, it didn't work, and he was totally shocked
that she wouldn't take him up on the opportunity. To
be sure, he is a perfect man.
Speaker 3 (17:04):
So many other options he'll be fine.
Speaker 7 (17:07):
Ever said they were perfect and turned out to be
like perfect. Like when has George Clooney been like, oh
my god.
Speaker 3 (17:11):
Do you know what he said this week that was
so annoying to me.
Speaker 2 (17:14):
Let's not go into it. I don't want to go
into it. I don't want to go into it. But look,
if our listeners I kind of do. If our listeners
want to take advantage of the perfect man, you can
go check out our Second Date podcast and listen to
me host.
Speaker 3 (17:27):
That Okay, listen, text in if you want to know
about the George Clooney dirt All Share.
Speaker 2 (17:34):
We'll talk about it off air, but go check out
our podcast wherever you get yours online at Brooke and
Jeffrey
Welcome to the Second Date podcast, and we are counting
down the top second dates of twenty twenty five.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
Yes, number seven, that's right. And I think there's fewer
and fewer rom com movies that are being made now
because people just don't meet in real life anymore.
Speaker 3 (00:14):
Oh, that's actually like a meet cute.
Speaker 4 (00:17):
Swiping isn't cute so many movies.
Speaker 2 (00:20):
Yeah, it's just not even believable to see it on
the screen. And you can't have a realistic romantic scene
with a drunk dude at two am sliding into a
hot girls DX. They just don't make those films. That's
why today's call was so rare. One of our listeners
turned a super awkward moment into an actual meet cute
that seemed almost too perfect, and you're going to hear
(00:42):
it in your Second Date Update number seven of the
year right now, Second Date Updated. There's a lot of
fun things in life that begin with the word street, street, street, magic,
street tacos.
Speaker 3 (00:58):
Okay, Jeff, I'm getting street meets.
Speaker 2 (01:01):
Yeah, street walkers, right, I feel like I do that.
I walk down a lot of streets.
Speaker 5 (01:07):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (01:10):
Well, today we're going to talk to a street dater.
Speaker 3 (01:13):
Jeffs like why are people giving me money for you?
Speaker 2 (01:16):
I must have really good hair today. But again, this
guy says he's a street dater. He met someone will well,
not stereotypically, but he met somebody while out on the street. Oh, okay,
that's what I met. His name is Drew street Walker. Yeah,
technically Drew street Walker too.
Speaker 6 (01:34):
I think I walked the streets about as much as
everybody else around here.
Speaker 4 (01:37):
Yeah, he's a humble street walk Jeff's neighborhood.
Speaker 7 (01:41):
Okay, we should probably using that phrase.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
But apparently you met somebody while just walking out and
about how did that happen?
Speaker 5 (01:48):
Yeah?
Speaker 6 (01:48):
I was at a bookstore locally, and I like to read.
So I'm leaving the bookstore and you know, I have
my face buried in the book as I'm walking, and
I knock into this woman.
Speaker 3 (01:58):
Oh that's kind of a cute. It sounded like out
of a movie. The bookstore is involved.
Speaker 5 (02:04):
Clumsy, her bag fell, I helped her, and then I
gave her a little flirt.
Speaker 7 (02:08):
Wait, wait, did ever really happen in slow motion?
Speaker 3 (02:10):
I think he's joking about that part.
Speaker 2 (02:12):
I know, Yeah, I imagine the bag falling. He grabbed it,
he picked it up, he ran gotcha. You just knocked
her bag out of her hand by accident.
Speaker 5 (02:23):
Yeah, by accident.
Speaker 3 (02:24):
Oh you really did knock the bag over.
Speaker 5 (02:26):
Yeah, we bumped into each other. It was a pretty
big bump, and you know, everything just kind of flew
all over the place. I helped. There's some stuff fell
out of.
Speaker 6 (02:31):
Her bag, and I said, you know, it's usually old
ladies I knock over and then I just move on and.
Speaker 2 (02:38):
Really funny he.
Speaker 3 (02:41):
Beats him with her I get the joke.
Speaker 6 (02:47):
So then we started walking and we started going in
the same direction. So I just started doing a little
more like joking, like.
Speaker 5 (02:53):
You following me? And she was like, no, you following me?
And we laughed again. Trying to build like a little rapport.
Speaker 7 (03:00):
Bro, Like, you're turning like kind of a bad situation
or a weird situation into like something positive.
Speaker 3 (03:05):
What point were you able to get her name?
Speaker 6 (03:08):
I did ask her name, but we walked a little
more and we'd love to know the name.
Speaker 7 (03:13):
She's like, don't tell anybody what my real name is.
Speaker 5 (03:15):
That name is Sonia.
Speaker 2 (03:17):
Okay, So you and Sonya are just accidentally walking in
the same direction and kind of flirting with each other.
Speaker 6 (03:22):
It sounds like, yeah, We eventually get to a park
and we start walking through the park.
Speaker 2 (03:27):
What when you got into the park? Is that when
you took her bag?
Speaker 6 (03:30):
Then that's when I knocked her over and ran Okay.
Speaker 2 (03:34):
Yeah, gotcha more escape routes than here.
Speaker 1 (03:40):
Did you really have to go to the same way
or were you just pretending so you could plants?
Speaker 3 (03:45):
Like you both just had free time to keep walking.
Speaker 7 (03:47):
Oh yeah, that's true too.
Speaker 5 (03:48):
I walked through that park all the time. Yeah.
Speaker 6 (03:50):
No, this isn't like the first I was going in
that direction anyway. So it's just like a very.
Speaker 5 (03:55):
Good meat cute.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
Okay.
Speaker 6 (03:57):
Eventually we came across a sketch artist and he flagged
us down.
Speaker 5 (04:01):
He was like, hey, you guys want to get a picture.
You thought we were a couple?
Speaker 3 (04:05):
Wait did you get a character drive?
Speaker 5 (04:07):
Oh look I was down, but she wasn't. Okay, I
think first, I think was freak down.
Speaker 2 (04:13):
Yeah, it sounds there's so many like perfect things that
are happening to you along the way on this short walk.
You didn't set this whole thing up. It sounds like,
how could he do?
Speaker 5 (04:23):
No, I didn't set anything up.
Speaker 2 (04:25):
Well, you just have a friend who's like in the park,
with a thing, and he's like, I'm just going to
take her this way.
Speaker 5 (04:29):
I didn't say it was a friend. It was just
a sketch artist. He wasn't a friendly.
Speaker 3 (04:33):
The most that.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
Would be the most elaborate setup ever. You accidentally run
into somebody and then suddenly you call your buddy when
she's not looking, who happens to be an artist, and
tell him.
Speaker 3 (04:42):
To set up quickly in the park.
Speaker 7 (04:43):
I really want to sit down with her for forty
five minutes. This stranger.
Speaker 2 (04:47):
I'm just saying. We've heard people that have like orchestrated
all sorts of weird things in order to make that's true, but.
Speaker 7 (04:52):
This doesn't sound like that job.
Speaker 3 (04:54):
How long is this walk going on.
Speaker 6 (04:56):
We're about twenty minutes into the walk. By the time
she said no to the picture way through the park
and we got to the end of the park, it
was probably about a half an hour.
Speaker 5 (05:06):
We were together and I got a good vibe.
Speaker 6 (05:08):
So I asked her number to go out, and she
gave me a number, and the date just hasn't materialized.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
Ince said, Okay, have you guys talked via text or
phone call?
Speaker 5 (05:19):
No? Nothing.
Speaker 6 (05:20):
I've tried to call a few times, I've lost a
few messages.
Speaker 3 (05:23):
I automatically think that she gave you a fake number.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
Oh, there's no response.
Speaker 5 (05:27):
Yeah, it was her voice on the voicemail it okay, okay, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3 (05:32):
She gave you the numbers. So I'm assuming she's single.
Did you specifically ask her?
Speaker 6 (05:37):
I didn't ask her if she was dating anyone. No,
but I left a few voicemails and she hasn't answered.
Speaker 3 (05:43):
How many yeah?
Speaker 5 (05:44):
Three? Maybe four?
Speaker 3 (05:46):
Oh.
Speaker 7 (05:48):
I don't think I called a girlfriend that many times
in one year.
Speaker 3 (05:51):
I think my mom calls me.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
He felt the connection. So wheneveryone's different.
Speaker 7 (05:56):
Some people love being on the phone.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
So I'm glad you take a break from your extent
of book reading in order to help reach out to
the show. And we're going to try and help you
call this girl. What's her name, Sonya? So yeah, Sonyr Okay,
we'll reach We'll reach out to Sonia, and we'll do
your second date update right after this hold on second
date update. If I hadn't read it on the back
(06:18):
of a Blockbuster movie sleeve, I still wouldn't believe it.
But an accidental sidewalk bumping turned into your classic Hallmark
street walker love story.
Speaker 3 (06:30):
Again with the term. Yeah, that's the wrong use.
Speaker 7 (06:33):
We're trying to make it sound better than it is.
Speaker 3 (06:36):
It's not a Hallmark movie. I'll tell you that one.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
It fits in this scenario because our listener Drew accidentally
ran into a woman outside of a bookstore, knocked over
her bag, and then turned that awkward moment into a
twenty five minute stroll through a local.
Speaker 1 (06:49):
Park thirty I believe. I mean, those five minutes are
going to be precious. When it's only a short amount
of time, you have to get fair.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
And it all seems too perfect to be true, and
maybe was because she's not responding to any of his messages.
Speaker 7 (07:03):
It's always the park scene. Yeah, ruins something in that.
Speaker 4 (07:06):
I mean he left Okay, here's the thing. You left
four voicemails. Yeah, we have not asked what was in
the voicemails.
Speaker 5 (07:14):
I just told her, Hey, it's me Drew by the park.
You need a lot of guys by the park. I mean,
it's true, not even from the park, like the guy
that's adjacent.
Speaker 2 (07:22):
Maybe she thinks you live in the park. After that
that there's a chance though, that if she's not responding
to anything, maybe she wasn't even real, He was real?
Are you sure that would make me crazy?
Speaker 7 (07:36):
Exactly?
Speaker 3 (07:37):
What could just mean? You have a bad drug habit?
Speaker 2 (07:39):
Yeah, we're from the park. Were you microdosing that day? No,
Homark hasn't done that yet. A microdosing Christmas lead to this? Well,
if you over micro dose?
Speaker 7 (07:50):
Yeah, no, wonder.
Speaker 3 (07:52):
One of those kids still in the DARE program.
Speaker 7 (07:55):
I signed that contract.
Speaker 2 (07:57):
Let's let's have all the street walkers unite because we're
gonna call and we're going to get an answer from
this woman to figure out what actually happened, if she's real,
and hopefully if there's an explanation a lot of.
Speaker 1 (08:06):
Kids listening who use that term wrong for the next Christmas.
Speaker 2 (08:13):
This is the education you get here. I'm going to
die of the number right now here we go. Hello,
it sounds real, Jeff, It sounds like a person. Is
this Sonya?
Speaker 5 (08:32):
Yes?
Speaker 3 (08:32):
This is Sonya.
Speaker 5 (08:33):
Who's this? Hey?
Speaker 2 (08:35):
Sonya. We're a radio show called Brook and Jeffrey in
the Morning.
Speaker 7 (08:37):
Good morning, Hi, Hi, Hey, what's this about.
Speaker 2 (08:43):
This is a segment that we do on our show.
It's called a second Date Update, and we're trying to
help out one of our listeners. His name is Drew
who you met the other day outside of a bookstore.
Speaker 3 (08:56):
Did you just laugh?
Speaker 8 (08:58):
Are you sorry? I just I can't believe that you're
calling about him.
Speaker 3 (09:03):
What you remember?
Speaker 4 (09:04):
Remember Drew knocked you over on accident outside the bookstore?
Speaker 5 (09:08):
Yeah?
Speaker 8 (09:09):
Yeah, I remember Drew.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
Okay, Well that's great because he said there was like
a meet cute type of situation that happened on the street,
and then you guys went through a park for a bit.
He left a few messages.
Speaker 8 (09:21):
Yeah, I mean that did happen, and I was actually
open to seeing him again. That's for the messages. The
messages are the problems.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
Well, we asked him about the messages, and he basically,
according to him, he said, it was basically, hey, this
is Drew from the park. Remember I'm Drew.
Speaker 6 (09:38):
Is that what he said? Yeah?
Speaker 5 (09:39):
Well summary interesting?
Speaker 3 (09:42):
Oh no, I'm not curious.
Speaker 8 (09:44):
Like he left me one message that was so ridiculous.
I actually my roommate and I have been like dying
laughing about it. Oh. I actually I wrote it down.
Speaker 3 (09:55):
Wait you wrote down the message because it was that
funny to you?
Speaker 5 (09:58):
Ye?
Speaker 2 (09:59):
Wow, it would it be okay if we know what
the message said?
Speaker 3 (10:02):
Oh?
Speaker 8 (10:03):
Absolutely, I'd love to read.
Speaker 2 (10:04):
It to you because we haven't we haven't heard anything
about it. We just know there was a bunch of messages.
Speaker 3 (10:09):
She is delighted to Yeah, she is.
Speaker 8 (10:12):
Okay, so he told me, he said, I left you
a message you didn't respond to, and I don't like
leaving second messages. But I like you. You're very elegant,
You're very attractive. But I don't play that game. If
(10:33):
I don't hear back by three pm tomorrow, well I'm
no longer interested.
Speaker 3 (10:43):
Because he called us.
Speaker 7 (10:44):
Yeah, it didn't mean it.
Speaker 8 (10:47):
Then she goes on to explain why I should.
Speaker 3 (10:50):
Call him some positives.
Speaker 8 (10:53):
That's good, he says, I'm very smart, I'm great in bed. Okay,
it makes a lot of money.
Speaker 7 (11:05):
But something everybody says.
Speaker 4 (11:07):
I mean, it's one of those things when you say
it's hard to believe.
Speaker 7 (11:10):
It's like discovering.
Speaker 8 (11:12):
So then he says, believe it or not, I'm a
complete catch. I'm one of the only men in the
city that has no issues.
Speaker 7 (11:24):
Yeah, exactly, I'm the best one.
Speaker 3 (11:26):
I have yet to find a person that doesn't have issues.
Speaker 7 (11:29):
Is like a child trying to do reverse psychology.
Speaker 3 (11:32):
Is that finally the end of the message.
Speaker 8 (11:36):
So I don't know what your situation is if you're
just insecure, or if you're on medication half way psychologically
normal and you haven't called me because something bad happened
in your life and you just needed a few days.
Speaker 4 (11:54):
He chet hinge, so specific started out the hinge, then
it got a little better.
Speaker 7 (12:01):
Now we're back, now we're unhinged again.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
Okay. Yeah, So clearly there was a lot happening in
that message, and it could help to get insight into
what he.
Speaker 3 (12:10):
Meant by it, because it's embarrassed right now.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
Maybe because Sonya, he is on the other line listening.
We've got Drew waiting to talk to you.
Speaker 6 (12:18):
Oh hey, hey, Sony, Hey hey.
Speaker 5 (12:23):
Is there something that I said that wasn't true? Was
there something that I said on that voice now that
wasn't That was a lie?
Speaker 3 (12:29):
What?
Speaker 5 (12:30):
Yeah, you can't say that, dude.
Speaker 7 (12:32):
You're coming to kind of hot, Yeah, a little bit.
Speaker 3 (12:35):
I think defensive, no apology.
Speaker 8 (12:37):
Well I'm sorry, Drew. I just like we met for
thirty minutes, we didn't even go on a real date,
and then all of this you're going on about how
great you are, and then you start to come for
me and like blame me for not calling you back.
I just found it all to be a little much
for someone that like.
Speaker 6 (12:53):
I'm know you agree that I'm right, So what was
the problem?
Speaker 5 (12:56):
You don't you don't appreciate being direct. You don't like
guys who are direct. I'm direct, You're making a lot
of money. I'm smart and I'm good in bed being direct.
Speaker 8 (13:09):
More and more doubtful talking about you.
Speaker 6 (13:11):
Know, you're all laughing now, but you won't be You'll
be crying later when I'm out of your life. That's
what's gonna happen if you don't make the right move.
Speaker 7 (13:20):
I mean, I gotta find out how good you are
in bed.
Speaker 5 (13:22):
Bro, So you didn't call me back was really stupid.
Speaker 6 (13:27):
I mean, come on, people like me who are good
in bed and smart and stuff.
Speaker 3 (13:31):
You know, why do you leave with that?
Speaker 5 (13:34):
Stupid person? Is going to give that up?
Speaker 2 (13:36):
I think he's making.
Speaker 5 (13:41):
You know. You know, in this city there are no men,
and I'm a total catch.
Speaker 6 (13:45):
You know that good man.
Speaker 2 (13:46):
I kind of agree with him on that.
Speaker 3 (13:48):
I don't know.
Speaker 8 (13:49):
I don't know, Drew. I feel like the people who
are actually good in bed don't go around talking about
how good they are in bed. I'm not getting the
best vibes from you to be like, it just feels
like that.
Speaker 5 (14:02):
You haven't bragged about being good in bed.
Speaker 2 (14:04):
Yeah, you're not supposed to.
Speaker 3 (14:06):
What are you talking about?
Speaker 2 (14:07):
Listen to any hip hop music? They're all about that.
Speaker 3 (14:09):
Are we going to ignore the rest of the text about.
Speaker 4 (14:14):
What was that?
Speaker 5 (14:16):
I saw her beg, her begs.
Speaker 6 (14:17):
Everything fell everywhere I saw her meds.
Speaker 4 (14:23):
You read everyone's on medications on medication.
Speaker 5 (14:28):
You sound crazy smart and well read, Sonya.
Speaker 4 (14:33):
I thought you were going to come to Drew. This
is honestly, this is shocking to be I thought we
were going to come to Drew and you were going
to be humiliated that this voicemail.
Speaker 3 (14:40):
Was out there.
Speaker 2 (14:41):
But like only somebody who's addicted to meds would be humiliated.
He's perfect, broke.
Speaker 1 (14:46):
Yeah, with no narcissistic tendencies at all.
Speaker 5 (14:50):
You know, I don't clearly good, Sonya?
Speaker 2 (14:54):
Was he read? Are you on the verge of tears
right now?
Speaker 8 (14:57):
I'm just really heartbroken that it can't be with this perfect.
Speaker 6 (15:03):
I'm glad that you can finally admit it.
Speaker 2 (15:05):
Well, Sonya, don't give up yet, because I'm going to
give you a second chance right now by offering to
send you out with the only perfect man in the
entire city with no issues, with no issues.
Speaker 6 (15:18):
She would do that if she went on a date,
if she called me back like a normal person, I
wouldn't have to do what happened. But he just called
me back like a normal person.
Speaker 2 (15:25):
Sonya. It's up to you if you'd like to see
him again or not yelled at a little bit. It's
your choice.
Speaker 8 (15:30):
I appreciate the offer, but I really I'm really not
into theismo.
Speaker 3 (15:39):
Shocking.
Speaker 2 (15:39):
She's talking about me though there like and I get that,
but what about Drew?
Speaker 3 (15:44):
That was really shocking?
Speaker 5 (15:46):
I say not to Drew.
Speaker 2 (15:47):
Also, wow, really, Sonya, I'll tell her.
Speaker 6 (15:57):
True.
Speaker 2 (15:57):
If this woman can't see how perfect you are, then
she and deserve you.
Speaker 4 (16:01):
Wow.
Speaker 5 (16:01):
Thank you.
Speaker 1 (16:02):
You can't read sarcasm, jes he's really thanking you, jeff
I don't read sarcasm.
Speaker 2 (16:08):
Yeah, you hear it, Brooke exactly. Thank you, Drew, thank you.
Speaker 7 (16:14):
He really is.
Speaker 2 (16:16):
Brook Jeffrey in the morning. I feel like we should
have asked that guy in part one, how confident are
you in getting a date one to ten?
Speaker 3 (16:24):
Oh my god.
Speaker 2 (16:26):
I felt like maybe he was a four going into it.
He would have said he'd like thirty.
Speaker 3 (16:31):
Yeah, here's the thing.
Speaker 4 (16:32):
He acts so confident, but we never brought up the
fact that on message too, he said he'd never be
interested again if she didn't call him back, and yet
he was still.
Speaker 6 (16:39):
On the phone.
Speaker 3 (16:40):
Yeah, still left her more voicemails. Yeah still, I mean,
all of what he was saying is not believable.
Speaker 7 (16:46):
It's like a guy who doesn't know how to play
the game. But someone told him right like, hey, if
you ignore a girl or if you're just this.
Speaker 3 (16:53):
And they love ultimatum.
Speaker 2 (16:55):
Yeah, yeah, it didn't work, and he was totally shocked
that she wouldn't take him up on the opportunity. To
be sure, he is a perfect man.
Speaker 3 (17:04):
So many other options he'll be fine.
Speaker 7 (17:07):
Ever said they were perfect and turned out to be
like perfect. Like when has George Clooney been like, oh
my god.
Speaker 3 (17:11):
Do you know what he said this week that was
so annoying to me.
Speaker 2 (17:14):
Let's not go into it. I don't want to go
into it. I don't want to go into it. But look,
if our listeners I kind of do. If our listeners
want to take advantage of the perfect man, you can
