now on the board.

Speaker 3 (00:15):
Well, Kaylin Banks love lady found our podcast this way.
My husband introduced me to your podcast.

Speaker 4 (00:20):
On our honeymoon.

Speaker 3 (00:21):
We listen to hours and hours well in the car
and now six months later, we're still listening together on
road track.

Speaker 2 (00:26):
Oh they're still married six months later. Di grats. I
love it. I love it.

Speaker 1 (00:31):
Well.

Speaker 2 (00:31):
Your brand new episode starts.

Speaker 4 (00:32):
Right now, Second Date Up Date. It's broken Jeffrey in
the morning. And when you turn thirty years old and
you're still single, some people handle it just fine, yeah,
but others not so much. They start looking around wondering,
why am I the only single person at the bar

(00:53):
right now?

Speaker 5 (00:54):
You're not?

Speaker 2 (00:55):
You just feel that way, No, I am.

Speaker 4 (00:56):
Everybody else is making out except me.

Speaker 5 (00:58):
Oh my gosh.

Speaker 2 (00:59):
That doesn't mean they're together with anyone.

Speaker 4 (01:01):
Oh, my friends are getting married now and they're having kids.
Maybe I should start thinking about adopting my seventh cat
just to keep the other six company. You know, I
want to be a good cat.

Speaker 2 (01:12):
Bob Seven's lucky.

Speaker 4 (01:13):
Yeah, but it's easy. You can get self conscious and
down about it, or you can be proactive and do something.
And apparently that's what our listener, Angela has decided to
do when she turned thirty recently, and she said, I
got to switch up my dating tactics, so let's learn
about it. Angela, Welcome to the show.

Speaker 1 (01:33):
Hi Guysay thirty Angela.

Speaker 5 (01:39):
Birthday. Oh my gosh, thank you.

Speaker 2 (01:44):
You're not You're not what I get it.

Speaker 4 (01:46):
So you said in your email that you switched up
your dating tactics at thirty. What did you do?

Speaker 5 (01:51):
So? I've been single for way too long and I
was like, okay, let me try something different. So I thought,
all right, I'm obviously not going to be on like
the four best thirty people in the world, so why
don't I do my own version of that? And I
came up with thirty for thirty dating.

Speaker 2 (02:13):
Oh, thirty for thirty datings.

Speaker 5 (02:15):
That means I have vowed to go out on thirty
dates before the end of the year.

Speaker 4 (02:23):
Okay, thirty dates while you're thirty years old.

Speaker 3 (02:28):
Okay, it's like the thirty before thirty bucket list that's trending.

Speaker 2 (02:31):
This is thirty guys.

Speaker 5 (02:32):
Well okay, yeah, it's been rough. I mean I've had
to like speed it up. I'm on nineteeen, like I
completed nineteen. But the thing is that I don't know
if I want to go in twenty because I really
like thinteen.

Speaker 2 (02:49):
Okay, good.

Speaker 1 (02:50):
I feel like you should have some fine print in
this that if any of the numbers turn out awesome,
you don't have to continue, because that's the whole point.

Speaker 4 (02:57):
Yeah, so I'm assuming that we're calling one per two
guy here, But before we get to that real quick,
because just because this is so interesting, your situation is
so unique, could you tell us like some of the
highlights and low lights from your thirty for thirty experience.

Speaker 5 (03:12):
Okay, four was a nightmare. Okay, he took me excellent
and I beat him, and like the rest of the date,
he was kind of just sulking, like, yeah, four was
a nightmare. Twelve brought his mom.

Speaker 2 (03:24):
Oh yeah, all you need to say.

Speaker 5 (03:26):
And she was only supposed to stay for like thirty
seconds and she ended up seeing the whole date.

Speaker 1 (03:30):
Oh she hold his hand?

Speaker 2 (03:33):
Did tell me it was being a good boy?

Speaker 6 (03:34):
You like to?

Speaker 5 (03:36):
Yeah? Absolutely? Her and I still talk.

Speaker 4 (03:38):
Oh okay, out of the last eighteen dates, you got
a mom out of it? Hey, yeah, what.

Speaker 5 (03:46):
Can I say?

Speaker 6 (03:47):
These dudes know that you are on a challenge or
do you just go on the dates naturally?

Speaker 4 (03:52):
So that's a really good question.

Speaker 5 (03:53):
So like when I first started, I was telling them
like trying to be all transparent, wait one two episode
and then they acted all weird and everything was just
weird about the date, and so like breeing on, I
haven't said anything about whatever was.

Speaker 4 (04:06):
It'd be a good litmus test to see how the
guys are about it. If they're chill.

Speaker 2 (04:09):
I mean, I don't know how chill they'd be about it, Jeff.
They don't really want to be considered a number.

Speaker 4 (04:13):
Oh yeah, unless you're a ten out of ten.

Speaker 1 (04:18):
But that's what That's what date nineteen was. Does he
get a name or do we just call him nineteen?

Speaker 5 (04:22):
Nineteen is a nineteen out of nineteen? His name is Damon?

Speaker 4 (04:25):
Oh wow, and he gave him a nineteen rating out
of a nineteen.

Speaker 5 (04:31):
Dinner was like really good, like it was he a
genuine guy? Like he just has a really nice smile,
no pressure, We went for a while. We kids feel
like a really nice kiss. It was super cute and
I thought he would be calling. And I don't really
want to go on to twenty, like I really want
to go out with him again. And if I'm asking
you guys, can you please help?

Speaker 4 (04:52):
Okay, well hold on here, you skipped really fast. So
what's the deal with Damon's mom?

Speaker 5 (04:59):
I hope I'm or next week?

Speaker 4 (05:01):
Okay, you want to meet this mom? That's good.

Speaker 2 (05:03):
Did anything weird happen on your date with Damon or awkward?

Speaker 5 (05:07):
No? I mean he get on a Mexican place, he paid,
and I mean all was well, yeah, he was fine.
I think like maybe almost two hundred bucks, Like it
didn't really make everything was chill.

Speaker 6 (05:19):
Well, you know, that's a nice salsa.

Speaker 5 (05:28):
He got a kiss out of it, and I want
to see him again.

Speaker 2 (05:31):
Okay.

Speaker 1 (05:32):
Do you think there's any chance he could have found
out about the thirty for thirty?

Speaker 2 (05:36):
Like are you posting about it on your TikTok Alexis
said that some of these are trending.

Speaker 5 (05:43):
Yeah, okay, I am posting about it on my Insta.
But I don't ever give my I never give my
socials out to anybody. I just start dating, right. I
don't know how he would find out about that, because
it's like not my name on my Insta.

Speaker 4 (05:55):
But that's what I was going to say.

Speaker 3 (05:57):
Have you heard you the latest one and it was
a good date?

Speaker 2 (05:59):
I would have that upset.

Speaker 6 (06:00):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (06:03):
Yeah, that's a couple of men, right, thank you.

Speaker 4 (06:05):
So how long has it been since you and Damon
hung out?

Speaker 5 (06:08):
Oh my god, it's been like a week and a
half and I haven't heard from him.

Speaker 2 (06:12):
Okay, like you've texted, you've called, or I.

Speaker 5 (06:15):
Don't really double text, but I did text, or I
did do a call, and like that's plenty, right yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 4 (06:22):
I don't do anymore.

Speaker 6 (06:22):
That's the problem is some people don't get that hand
and then they keep going. What you need to do
is have a radio station call.

Speaker 1 (06:28):
Yes, what if he's doing a thirty for thirty and
he's only on number seventeen.

Speaker 2 (06:32):
Yeah, that's why that would be the pit.

Speaker 5 (06:36):
Wait's true here, Like that's not even it?

Speaker 4 (06:39):
Do double dates?

Speaker 5 (06:40):
Side?

Speaker 4 (06:41):
Yeah, Well, we'll try to figure out what's going on
with Damon when we come back. Call him and hopefully
get some answers on your thirty for thirty second date
update thirty dates with thirty men on your thirtieth birthday.

Speaker 2 (06:56):
Your thirtieth year.

Speaker 4 (06:57):
We got that doesn't sound as sexy.

Speaker 2 (07:01):
You can't do it all in one.

Speaker 4 (07:01):
Day, Okay, but they get it. You understand. We're doing
second date update right after this sold on second Date Update.
Welcome back to a special second Date Update thirty for
thirty edition. And what is thirty for thirty? Yes, it's
a little dating challenge our listener Angela gave herself when
she turned thirty years old, where she decided, I'm gonna

(07:24):
go out on thirty dates with thirty different men before
she turns thirty one.

Speaker 1 (07:29):
Yeah, because she wants to be in a relationship. Like,
the goal is not to just do this, but it's
also to find someone.

Speaker 4 (07:35):
Yeah, and also a little brag too.

Speaker 2 (07:37):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (07:38):
The thing is she hasn't even reached thirty guys yet.
She stopped at nineteen after she met Damon, A who
has turned out to be everything she was looking for.
In fact, she sounds fully ready to go all in
on him if she could just get him to answer
her damn calls. Yes, So we're gonna step in and
try and make that happen. Now, Angela, do you have

(07:59):
a guy number two twenty lined up just in case,
because we might need to put a little pressure on
Damon with a little Hey. If you don't, somebody else will.

Speaker 5 (08:06):
Yeah. I don't have a twenty.

Speaker 2 (08:09):
Don't, okay? Okay, you really are committed to this guy?

Speaker 5 (08:13):
I am?

Speaker 4 (08:15):
Okay. Well, if I think we're on agreement though that
if we get him on the phone, we're not bringing
up the thirty for thirty challenge to him unless he
already knows.

Speaker 2 (08:22):
About it, right, unless he saw her Instagram.

Speaker 4 (08:26):
We just go by number nineteen. Yeah, yeah, it's really
it's your business, Angela. If you want to bring it
up to him, that's your decision. We're not going to
say anything. But let's just call his number. We'll see
if he picks up, and here we go.

Speaker 5 (08:46):
Hello.

Speaker 4 (08:48):
Hey, is this Damon?

Speaker 7 (08:51):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (08:51):
It is?

Speaker 5 (08:52):
Who's this? Hey?

Speaker 6 (08:53):
Man?

Speaker 4 (08:54):
This is a radio show actually called Brooke and Jeffrey
in the Morning.

Speaker 6 (08:58):
Hey, good morning.

Speaker 2 (08:59):
Sounds like we caught you. You're busy right now or something.

Speaker 7 (09:02):
I mean, it's not that I'm busy, I just don't
I don't know why the radio stations calling me.

Speaker 4 (09:08):
Oh, that's funny, because we know you. At least we've heard, well,
not in a creepy way, in a good way. We've
heard a lot about you. I don't think that's how
I said it, but we've heard glowing reviews about you
from one of our friends, a listener to our show,
a woman named Angela.

Speaker 7 (09:27):
Oh, the girl I went out with that, Angela.

Speaker 4 (09:29):
Yeah, because what we're doing here, it's called the second
Date Update, and we're just trying to help out Angela.
She feels like after your hangout, you've been blowing her
off a little bit.

Speaker 7 (09:38):
Yeah, I've been. I've been blowing off a lot, like
I don't want to hang out with her no more.

Speaker 4 (09:44):
Oh, okay, all right.

Speaker 2 (09:47):
That sounds like something wrong.

Speaker 4 (09:48):
Well that's really interesting to hear, because when we delved
into your date, she couldn't figure out anything that went
wrong that night.

Speaker 2 (09:56):
Yeah, it sounds great. Sounds like from the way you're talking,
it should be obvious.

Speaker 7 (10:01):
Well I feel more taken advantage of than.

Speaker 4 (10:06):
And not in a good way, like the bad way.

Speaker 7 (10:08):
Yeah, I feel violated in my pocket.

Speaker 4 (10:12):
Hocket.

Speaker 2 (10:13):
She said that you paid for dinner. Is that what
you mean?

Speaker 7 (10:16):
Yeah, I paid two hundred dollars.

Speaker 5 (10:18):
She didn't tell y'all that.

Speaker 4 (10:19):
Yeah, she said two hundred dollars, but she made it
seem like that was totally agreeable and that you were
happy to offer that.

Speaker 7 (10:27):
That's totally not true. I mean I was actually kind
of corked into it. Yeah, Like she does videos, she records.

Speaker 2 (10:36):
Videos, videos of what she's like an influencer.

Speaker 4 (10:38):
Like on the date she was recording videos, she was
doing full reviews.

Speaker 7 (10:42):
That's why she ordered two hundred dollars. It wasn't that
we were caught up having a great time.

Speaker 4 (10:46):
Oh my gosh.

Speaker 1 (10:48):
No, oh wait, she like ordered one of everything on
the menu so she could try it.

Speaker 7 (10:53):
Yeah, and I mean it's like the whole menu and
not the happy hour with menu.

Speaker 2 (10:58):
It was my god. And then I mean the weird
part is you're at dinner and then they're on their phone. Yeah, according, yeah,
Like did she even talk to you?

Speaker 7 (11:07):
No, she told me to kind of be quiet, So.

Speaker 4 (11:09):
I don't now I understand a little bit more. Why
you feel like you were used.

Speaker 2 (11:15):
Yeah, well but you kissed. I thought she's told us
that you had a great kiss.

Speaker 7 (11:19):
I mean, hell, yeah, I'm not gonna turn it down.

Speaker 2 (11:23):
Everybody suffered through the least.

Speaker 4 (11:24):
Yeah, you deserve a review on how your kiss was
because video. In fact, we might be able to give
it to you right now, since Angela has been on
the other line listening, wanting to talk to you.

Speaker 7 (11:35):
God, why why okay, okay.

Speaker 4 (11:41):
Angel are you there, I'm here.

Speaker 2 (11:44):
Oh you sound embarrassed.

Speaker 4 (11:46):
Don't be embarrassed, you, I'm upset. Why didn't you tell
us that this was for a food review.

Speaker 5 (11:51):
Was a food review, That's what he's just assuming.

Speaker 4 (11:55):
But hi, Damon, Damon, Damon talked to Angela here?

Speaker 7 (12:02):
Hi you hey, yeah, whatever. You're kind of faking the
funk right now. You know that you had your phone
out the whole time. We really didn't connect on anything,
and you didn't even eat all the food.

Speaker 3 (12:15):
It was just like you were.

Speaker 7 (12:17):
Order the most expensive dish to take one bite and
move on to the next dish.

Speaker 5 (12:21):
No, oh my gosh, Like I know, I had my
phone out, but it wasn't a fee. And honestly, Dan,
we had like it was two hundred dollars. You had
an appetizer. I had an appetizer. You had an entree.
I had an untrust.

Speaker 7 (12:35):
Wait, slow down, you had all of that alone yourself,
and I remember it because I was the cameraman. Remember
you told me this fall.

Speaker 5 (12:46):
No, Oh my god, I'm so sorry. I I feel
really happy about that part. To tell you wasn't a
food review, Angela.

Speaker 4 (12:52):
You got to explain why were you making him film
you while eating the food.

Speaker 5 (12:56):
It wasn't for a freevie like honestly, I like you.
And the reason why you're on the show today is
because I turned thirty as you know, earlier this year,
and I just made a personal goal to go out
on thirty dates for my thirtieth year of life, and
I wanted to do a video for Instagram and you're
number nineteen. Okay, damn, that's what's going on. You're number nineteen,

(13:20):
and I don't want to go in the twentieth though
I don't like I'm trying to tell you I like you.
I don't want to go on the twentieth. I like
you a lot. And that's what the video was about.
It wasn't like trying to ord up a bunch of food.
It was just doing my own little silly thirty for thirty.
That's it.

Speaker 7 (13:34):
Okay, So what happened to the other eighteen dudes, the other.

Speaker 5 (13:41):
Eighteen or wherever they are. I didn't go out on
the second date with them. I didn't like them. I
wasn't interested. And now this is where it stops.

Speaker 4 (13:48):
So none of it was actually about reviewing the food.
It was just kind of full content to talk about
the dates.

Speaker 7 (13:54):
Yeah, if that's the case, why wasn't I in the
video at all? I was just filming eating.

Speaker 5 (13:59):
Because I repaid your privacy, Like I wasn't going to
put you on blacks like that?

Speaker 4 (14:02):
Actually, yea, I am curious, Angela. Did the other eighteen
dudes all have to pay for your meals too? And
film you eating? Also? Great question?

Speaker 5 (14:10):
So the thing is that you'll have to right making anybody.

Speaker 4 (14:15):
Strongly suggested that they do.

Speaker 1 (14:16):
I guess, Oh my god, I mean, David, where are
you at knowing that this was all part of a challenge.

Speaker 7 (14:23):
I mean, I don't like being a part of somebody's
elaborate game that they're trying to have to like boost
their own self esteem, because you have not game.

Speaker 5 (14:33):
So it's not games, it's goals, it's goals and objectives.

Speaker 7 (14:36):
I'm numbered nineteen, like you got ten to fifteen more
people to go, Like, come.

Speaker 5 (14:41):
On, I don't have anybody else to go. I want
to stop with you.

Speaker 4 (14:44):
Yeah, that's that's the point. This may have all started
out as like a fun experiment for her, like an
interesting way to meet people, but once she met you, Damon,
she decided I'm out. I'm fully committed to Damon if
he's willing to give me another chance.

Speaker 2 (14:57):
Yeah, And she.

Speaker 1 (14:58):
Didn't even want to tell you about it because she
knew that it probably wouldn't feel good, you know, like that, like.

Speaker 2 (15:03):
It'd be weird.

Speaker 4 (15:04):
In fact, she rated you a nineteen out of nineteen,
which is the highest rating you can have. Yeah, up
to twenty.

Speaker 5 (15:11):
You know, if we went out again, it would be
like no phone, Like I wouldn't do any of it.
I mean that was literally just some social stuff, Damen,
Like it's not anything like that. Like I'm just doing
it all right enough.

Speaker 2 (15:25):
I like it. Damon's taking charge.

Speaker 7 (15:26):
What do you need to say if we go out again,
no phone? How about this we go out again, you
spend it two hundred on me?

Speaker 2 (15:32):
Okay, Wow, there's a challenge for you.

Speaker 4 (15:35):
I like that too.

Speaker 7 (15:36):
That's a challenge. How about you and your challenge on that?

Speaker 4 (15:39):
Okay, So it's a yes. From Damon. Now it's up
to Angela. Will you accept his terms and conditions?

Speaker 5 (15:46):
No? I don't like his energy.

Speaker 4 (15:48):
What what you gotta be, kidneys?

Speaker 2 (15:51):
We worked so hard for you, you better pay for
that date.

Speaker 5 (15:54):
No, I'm not. I gotta first of all, like just sload.
I didn't make you pay for anything, but this whole
added that energy is not going to work for me.
Like you say, Okay, why don't we make it like,
be a little more polite about it? Like he's been little.
I don't do. I didn't know you was gangsta.

Speaker 2 (16:13):
That was ridiculous.

Speaker 5 (16:14):
Wow.

Speaker 2 (16:15):
Man, you know he's not in your challenge. That's all
he's doing it.

Speaker 3 (16:18):
No, he's not.

Speaker 5 (16:19):
It's my challenge. Find your own challenge.

Speaker 7 (16:21):
Wow.

Speaker 4 (16:21):
Time is running out on this segment, so damon, any
last words before we let you go?

Speaker 7 (16:26):
Wow, don't let the gameplay.

Speaker 5 (16:28):
You played a game?

Speaker 4 (16:29):
Okay, Well he got played.

Speaker 2 (16:30):
Bro, says the guy that's out two hundred bucks.

Speaker 4 (16:33):
Yeah, rook, Jeffrey in the morning. Oh imagine Brook, one
day you end up going sixty for sixty sixty dudes
in your sixties.

Speaker 2 (16:46):
No, dude, I do not want to enter the dating
game again.

Speaker 6 (16:49):
That's true.

Speaker 4 (16:50):
It does go up and get older, challenge gets older.

Speaker 2 (16:53):
Dude, She said, no, I know what is now.

Speaker 3 (16:57):
I'm like, there's a reason she's been on nineteen and.

Speaker 6 (17:00):
Her intentions were a little shady.

Speaker 1 (17:02):
At the end, I thought it was like so cool.
He was like matching her energy. He's yeah, you know,
you want a person that will push back a little bit,
you know.

Speaker 4 (17:10):
And the take gave too much, took too little, whatever
it was. But looks like angelus to move on to
guy number twenty in her thirty for thirty quest. And
I just told you, Okay, I hope whoever that guy
is has a good job in steady hands, because clearly
dinner's not going to be cheap and he's going to
have to hold the camera the entire night.

Speaker 2 (17:27):
You know what, I don't even want to follow her
on socials.

Speaker 3 (17:29):
He doesn't have to remember right, right, right choice, that's right.

Speaker 4 (17:33):
Maybe that's what modern chivalry is. It's not about opening
doors and pulling out chairs anymore. It's holding their cameras
and choosing to pay the bill. Yeah, I'm just going
to ask that on the next date.

Speaker 6 (17:42):
Excuse me, but do you think I could use your
phone and take a picture of you?

Speaker 4 (17:46):
What a gentleman. Yes, the dating world's weird, and that's
why we're here to help. If you ever need it,
reach out to the show. We'll call that person who's
not calling you back. And go check out all of
our second date updates. They're online where you get your podcasts.

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
