Speaker 1 (00:00):
You know, it's not the holidays without a little drama.
Welcome to the Second Date podcast with Brooke and Jeffrey.

Speaker 2 (00:05):
And yesterday we had our.

Speaker 1 (00:07):
Awkward Thursday phone call where Hey, sister who's hosting her
whole family, has decided to charge not just for the dinner,
oh no, no, but for her grandparents to get VIP park.

Speaker 2 (00:18):
Yeah yeahge door, and.

Speaker 3 (00:21):
She's still got time to add more fees by Thanksgiving.

Speaker 1 (00:24):
She definitely was in charge of the situation. If you
didn't hear it, you need to listen. There are a
lot of comments.

Speaker 3 (00:30):
About your guys' comments were killing me. But t Cards said,
I need to call my sister and tell her how
much I appreciate her. After listening to that, em said,
thank god I only listened from my family. If my
sister or brother heard, I feel like they probably might
give it a shot.

Speaker 1 (00:48):
Yeah, that's definitely the one episode you don't want to
share with any family members.

Speaker 2 (00:53):
I know that's a good point. Oops.

Speaker 1 (00:56):
Hey, keep those comments coming. We got a brand new
Second Date for you and it's starting right now.

Speaker 4 (01:02):
Second Date update. You ever see those videos of marathon
runners who were in the last stretch right before the
finish line and they start celebrating a little bit too early.
That's a very last second somebody else passes them, or
they run right into a car.

Speaker 2 (01:23):
Oh gosh, did I miss that video.

Speaker 4 (01:26):
Well, it also can happen on a first date, because
one of our listeners said in his email he got
all the way back to his place and just couldn't
cross the finish line. So he needs our help today.
I don't know if I want to know what that means.

Speaker 2 (01:42):
Yeah, that's okay.

Speaker 4 (01:43):
I know, Brook, you like to cross the finish line
in the first five minutes, but Anthony does it a
little bit differently. Anthony, Welcome to the show.

Speaker 1 (01:52):
Okay, can we like establish what your finish line is again?

Speaker 4 (01:56):
You're jumping right to the finish line at the very
start of the call. Let's let's get to the finish
line in a normal amount of time. We'll begin with
the girl's name.

Speaker 5 (02:06):
Her name's Olivia, Olivia Olivia okay, And according to my notes,
it says you met Olivia on a dating app.

Speaker 4 (02:17):
So what did you to bond over that brought you together?

Speaker 6 (02:21):
Well, she had something on her dating profile that made
me laugh, and she said, I never know what to
do with my hands during hugs.

Speaker 2 (02:32):
Don't you just put them on the person's back.

Speaker 4 (02:34):
But I guess the question is where on the back
do you put them? Do you go high? Do you
go low? Do you wonder?

Speaker 2 (02:41):
Answer? Yeah, I definitely I do not do that.

Speaker 6 (02:46):
Okay, it depends on the energy, I guess.

Speaker 4 (02:49):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (02:49):
Okay, so you related to that. You thought it was funny.
It's silly, Yeah, for sure.

Speaker 6 (02:53):
And I was like, I don't know either.

Speaker 4 (02:58):
Between you two is very good.

Speaker 1 (03:00):
Okay, So that was your funny response back to her
and it sparks conversation.

Speaker 6 (03:05):
Yeah, and we said we should hug in person and
test it out.

Speaker 2 (03:09):
So that's cute.

Speaker 4 (03:10):
Okay.

Speaker 6 (03:11):
I thought I was in you know, I thought I
thought that was my green light.

Speaker 2 (03:15):
What do you mean?

Speaker 4 (03:16):
That's sure? Getting a hug to smooth line to start
things off.

Speaker 2 (03:20):
So did you go to dinner? What did you guys
do for your date?

Speaker 7 (03:23):
Yeah?

Speaker 6 (03:23):
Well, well, we hugged when we see each other and
oh when.

Speaker 1 (03:26):
You very first met Okay, hold on, don't tell me
you were that guy that's like, where's my hug?

Speaker 6 (03:31):
I tried not to, but then she was kind of
like put her arms out, so I I just went
in and that.

Speaker 1 (03:37):
Is such a cute first interaction. But where did you
put your hands?

Speaker 6 (03:42):
I don't even remember. I was like so caught up
in the moment.

Speaker 4 (03:48):
All right, you dog, Anthony.

Speaker 6 (03:51):
I could tell there was an attraction because every time
I talk, she would either touch or slap my hand.
So slap I thought it was kind of flirty.

Speaker 4 (04:02):
I'm not sure if you're reading that right.

Speaker 2 (04:05):
Yeah, I don't know.

Speaker 1 (04:05):
You know people who like slapped the table when they're laughing,
or they you know, like slap.

Speaker 4 (04:09):
Their name, yeah, or just like slapped the waiter as
he walks by exactly. Okay, so what did you talk
about during your date, because according to your email, it
sounds like you bonded over both having bad roommates.

Speaker 3 (04:23):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (04:24):
Yeah, I used to have a roommate who would always
leave loads of wet laundry in the washer for a
day you just forget about. Yeah, until my entire apartment
smelled like mold.

Speaker 4 (04:36):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (04:39):
I mean that's a good, like relatable, totally totally. What
was her horror story about her roommate?

Speaker 6 (04:44):
She had, like this old roommate who used to keep
like forty packs of hotdogs in her fridge or something,
come on, or she ate them Rob this is the
weird thing.

Speaker 5 (04:57):
She ate them rawd well queens gross.

Speaker 4 (05:01):
Yeah, so YouTube bonded over awkward hugs and midnight hot dogs.
Yeah okay, Yeah, let's go to the finish line part.
Because in your email you said you were back at
your apartment and what happened?

Speaker 6 (05:16):
Yeah, I mean, like our whole conversation, like maybe the
easiest flowing conversations I've ever had on a first date.
That's why I suggested we get more, maybe more drinks
back in my place. No bad roommates waiting there.

Speaker 2 (05:29):
Okay, that's funny.

Speaker 4 (05:30):
How did she react when you asked her?

Speaker 7 (05:33):
Oh?

Speaker 6 (05:33):
She was down. Let's go. So we get to my
apartment and I gave her the full tour. I hit
the bathroom real quick, and I tell her to help
herself to whatever drake drinks. She wants to get in
the fridge, and when I came out, she already got
her coat back on. She tells me it later, and
she thought, and you just had to go.

Speaker 2 (05:57):
Did you have your fridge axis stinks in there?

Speaker 4 (06:00):
Or there was ten packs of hot dogs in there?
And she was like, oh no, not again.

Speaker 2 (06:04):
Yeah, She's like only ten.

Speaker 4 (06:08):
I'm hungry to that.

Speaker 1 (06:09):
I mean, we have heard a lot of stories of
people who have things in their apartment that they didn't
realize was strange and somebody else found it like off
putting possible.

Speaker 4 (06:19):
I mean, other than the pole and the swing in
your living room, is there anything else weird that could
have like driven her away? She's on the swing when
he comes out, I gotta go.

Speaker 6 (06:28):
It sucks because she hasn't answered my text since that night. Oh,
I know it's something.

Speaker 2 (06:34):
And you've reached out.

Speaker 6 (06:36):
Yeah, but I'm not trying to like stalk her and stuff,
So I just quit.

Speaker 4 (06:41):
We're just saying I'm not trying to stalk her, but
now we're going to stalk her. Alright, her call her sorry. Yeah,
slap her with questions. Slapping is their love language, slapping hands.

Speaker 2 (06:55):
She's the only one allowed to do that relationship.

Speaker 4 (06:57):
Yeah, we'll leave the slapping to you two, and we'll
just add some normal questions when we come back and
call Olivia to get your second date update with awkward
hugs and hot dogs.

Speaker 2 (07:06):
Man, sounds it sounds kind of nice.

Speaker 4 (07:11):
We'll do it right after this second date update. Some
couples bond over similar TV shows, similar coffee orders, similar
unpaid parking tickets. I'll call your husband. Let's have a

(07:34):
bonding moment. But our listener Anthony Today says he bonded
with a woman named Olivia over awkward hugs and roommates
eating hot dogs straight out of the bag. Hot dogs
and hugs. It's a true love story packed with delicious preservatives. Yea,
we're trying to make it come to life today. The

(07:55):
weird part, though, happened at the end of the night
back at Anthony's place, when he told her to go
make herself and by the time he got back to
the kitchen, she had her coat on, saying it was
actually late and she had to go. Yeah. So either
Olivia truly lost track of time, or there's something Anthony
isn't telling us.

Speaker 2 (08:14):
Yeah, about what's in his house in the fridge maybe, Uh, guys, Like, honestly.

Speaker 1 (08:20):
How many guys had that is a good point, Like
it could be really helpful Anthony, Like, maybe you'll learn
something that women don't like about your house and you
can change it.

Speaker 6 (08:29):
Hey, guys, I'm not a weird guy, that's what you're thinking.
I mean, I'll have some weird stuff hanging around, but
I'm not a weird guy.

Speaker 1 (08:35):
Okay, no, no weird guys ever know they're weird guys, Anthony.

Speaker 2 (08:39):
That might be the self realization we come to.

Speaker 4 (08:42):
And then fast forward he's like it was the ten
thousand Ninja.

Speaker 2 (08:44):
Stars on this wall exactly, No way, what not?

Speaker 1 (08:48):
Everybody has twenty pet iguanas.

Speaker 4 (08:51):
Let's find out how not weird you really are, Anthony.
I'm gonna dial Olivia's number and she hopefully will validate
everything you just said. You ready to do that?

Speaker 2 (09:00):
Yeah, okay, you got this a little weirdo.

Speaker 4 (09:05):
Bron your side for now, but here we go. Hello, Hi,
we're looking to speak with Olivia.

Speaker 7 (09:18):
Uh, yes, this is she.

Speaker 4 (09:20):
Hey Olivia. We are a radio show. A bunch of
people in the room here we called Brook and Jeffrey
in the morning.

Speaker 2 (09:27):
Welcome to the show.

Speaker 6 (09:30):
Hi.

Speaker 7 (09:32):
What is this?

Speaker 4 (09:33):
Yeah, this is it's a segment that we do called
the second Date Update. Not sure if you're familiar with that,
but we're trying to help out one of our listeners
that you went on a date with recently and afterwards
he's feeling like you're trying to distance yourself a little bit.

Speaker 1 (09:47):
No, jeff, you haven't responded to any of us texts.

Speaker 7 (09:57):
Is this Anthony?

Speaker 4 (09:58):
No, this is Brook and Jeff Free Morning. Yeah, the
guy that we're talking about, his name is Anthony. That's true.

Speaker 7 (10:07):
Oh my god?

Speaker 2 (10:09):
Wait is that? Oh my god? Like, oh my god,
so cool?

Speaker 7 (10:13):
Their manners just so disappointing.

Speaker 4 (10:16):
No, okay, yeah, I told him not to come through
our show. We thought it was weird too.

Speaker 2 (10:21):
Wait, why are you lumping him in with disappointing men?

Speaker 4 (10:25):
What happened?

Speaker 2 (10:26):
Because it sounds like you guys had a nice date.

Speaker 7 (10:29):
It's just that every single time that you have like
you feel like you start to have a connection with
the guy, he just immediately ruins this.

Speaker 4 (10:38):
Yeah, that's kind of our thing. I mean, yeah, but
what did he do?

Speaker 7 (10:43):
Oh? We had a great time on our date, but
then we ended up going back to his place.

Speaker 4 (10:53):
You were asking Anthony about this when we spoke to
him if there is anything weird inside of his place
that may have come across weird or been turn off.
He said, no, it's a perfect, perfect room.

Speaker 1 (11:03):
But you have for some reason, it sounds like you're
only there for like five or ten minutes before you bailed.

Speaker 5 (11:08):
Yeah.

Speaker 7 (11:08):
Well that wasn't originally my plan. I was thinking that
we might have like maybe some like romantic time because
I haven't really felt close to a guy like in
probably years.

Speaker 1 (11:21):
Whoa wowfortble Okay, yeah you liked it.

Speaker 4 (11:25):
It must have been a pretty big thing that happened
to change from romantic time to darting away from his apartment.

Speaker 6 (11:31):
Yeah.

Speaker 7 (11:32):
Yeah, I mean we were having a great time. But
then at one point in the night he excused himself
to go to the bathroom. And I mean, I'm just
assuming he's changing.

Speaker 4 (11:43):
Okay, what happened.

Speaker 7 (11:46):
Well, when he's in the other room, he decides, like
from down the hall, he just tells me something that
I was not prepared to hear.

Speaker 6 (11:56):
What.

Speaker 2 (11:57):
Yeah, like he's going down to the bathroom and he said.

Speaker 7 (12:00):
What, Well, she tells me she has hep C.

Speaker 4 (12:05):
Oh, he says he has hepatitis C.

Speaker 2 (12:08):
That's that's serious.

Speaker 1 (12:10):
Yeah.

Speaker 7 (12:10):
I don't know if I can't even say that on
the radio.

Speaker 2 (12:12):
That's okay. People have it and they should be open
about it. I mean, it's interesting to casually mention it.

Speaker 1 (12:19):
As you're walking away, you know, it seems like a
bigger conversation.

Speaker 7 (12:24):
He seems like very confident about it, like, oh, it's
no big deal. Hey, And by the way, I have hepsi.

Speaker 4 (12:31):
Okay, change your mind.

Speaker 3 (12:33):
But the yelling down the hall is yeah, oh.

Speaker 6 (12:38):
God, what what? I never said that?

Speaker 4 (12:40):
Yeah, hold on, hold on there, Anthony, because we need
to inform Olivia that that is your date on the
other line listening to this. He's been there the one time. Yeah,
that's how the segment works, as we have them quietly
listened so that they could hear what they did wrong.

Speaker 6 (12:53):
And Anthony apparently never I never said I had hept
what you.

Speaker 7 (12:59):
Definitely one hundred percent did.

Speaker 6 (13:02):
No, No, I didn't. There's no way. The only time
we were talking loud is when I was in the bathroom.

Speaker 1 (13:09):
I know.

Speaker 7 (13:11):
I asked you, hey, is there anything that I should know?
And you said you had pepsi?

Speaker 2 (13:17):
Oh, straightforward.

Speaker 1 (13:20):
That's a very honest response, which is good, Oh my god.

Speaker 4 (13:24):
Not something that seems like you would forget.

Speaker 6 (13:25):
No. You you asked me what drinks I have to
mix with? And I told you I have pepsi.

Speaker 4 (13:32):
Pei pep good, pepsi pepily. You said pepsi? Anthony, are
you making that up because you're feeling a little bit embarrassed?

Speaker 6 (13:43):
I swear to god, she asked me, what do you
have to drink and I said pepsi and he could have.

Speaker 4 (13:48):
Misheard you through the door or too.

Speaker 2 (13:49):
If she's like hey, he's like, oh yeah.

Speaker 4 (13:51):
Yeah, drink. Anthony did tell us that he encouraged you
to go make yourself a drink while he was using
the bathroom. It makes sense that he'd be talking about
what sodaes to mix with.

Speaker 7 (14:01):
Yeah, yeah, he definitely, he definitely did that.

Speaker 4 (14:04):
That could have been my mistake, Alexis You've been with
a lot of guys who've had hepsi. Does this seem
like something that would check out.

Speaker 2 (14:11):
I wouldn't even talk to him through the bathroom door.

Speaker 3 (14:13):
Don't get that close to a guy in the bathroom ever,
sting from down there.

Speaker 4 (14:21):
I mean, maybe this is all just one really horrible miscommunication, Olivia.
Do you believe him that he was shouting pepsi at you?
You were there?

Speaker 7 (14:33):
I mean, we did have a great time like all
before this happened, So I guess Anthony, I can I
can believe you on this one.

Speaker 1 (14:43):
Okay, maybe you can get together and discuss all the
diseases you have and don't have.

Speaker 4 (14:51):
Yeah, Okay, I'm just happy that we finally sorted this
out because that was quite a misinterpretation.

Speaker 6 (14:59):
Yes, I mean I have had pepsi before, but that
was like earlier this year. It's gone now.

Speaker 2 (15:05):
I don't think that's how he works, my man.

Speaker 6 (15:09):
I'm joking, guys, not really.

Speaker 2 (15:11):
Okay, that is a fairly time joke. I'm starting to
think that maybe we should like it felt real.

Speaker 4 (15:18):
Is it possible that you have pepsi and hepsi both?

Speaker 6 (15:23):
I can make them together.

Speaker 4 (15:24):
Okay, I don't know if that sounds appealing.

Speaker 1 (15:27):
I just have tomato tomato, sure, tomato, tomato, tomato, kume quatting.

Speaker 4 (15:36):
A lot of questions are going through my head right now,
but the main one is, Olivia, would you like to
go out on one more date with Anthony, who is,
according to him, totally hepsi free. It's really up to you. Yes,
lots of pepsi yeh.

Speaker 2 (15:51):
Don't even drink high Sea.

Speaker 4 (15:52):
That's a whole lot of If you're willing to give
him another chance, we'd pay for it.

Speaker 7 (15:59):
I mean, I do I do believe him that he
said he had pepsi?

Speaker 4 (16:05):
Right?

Speaker 2 (16:07):
Very sweet?

Speaker 7 (16:09):
Yeah, maybe before we go out he should go get
tested to make sure that that he's telling the truth.

Speaker 4 (16:15):
Okay, that's something Anthony, you would agree to that, right.

Speaker 6 (16:19):
Yeah, I mean I'm pretty busy, but I could set
up a date I guess to go and get tested.

Speaker 4 (16:24):
It feels pretty important, Anthony, he has now.

Speaker 6 (16:29):
Yeah, No, I'm just I'm just super busy. Guys, I
don't know what's going on.

Speaker 4 (16:37):
Did he say busy or did he shout HEPSI? Again?

Speaker 2 (16:41):
Just protection, it's important.

Speaker 4 (16:44):
Just be cautious out there, Jeffrey in the morning. Isn't
it weird to think that this entire thing could have
been avoided if he just had sprite in his fridge?
My god, shut that one choice led to this entire thing.
He wouldn't have had to reach out to us. She

(17:04):
wouldn't have been running away from his apartment. Yeah, they
might have been engaged by now, for all we know.

Speaker 2 (17:10):
That is quite the commercial for sprite.

Speaker 4 (17:11):
Yeah, I see it now. I bet PEPSI goes down
after this second day Sprite or seven up. Look, I
don't want to get into cola wars started here, but
it sounds like the good news is they're back onto
the right track and they're not gonna yell mixer options
across the apartment through closed doors anything.

Speaker 1 (17:28):
Yeah, Thank goodness, let's just not talk to each other
while we're in the bathroom.

Speaker 2 (17:32):
Yeah. Yeah, it's just a good rule of thumb. Nothing
good happens that way, Joe.

Speaker 4 (17:36):
I don't know if I go the door that extreme
with it, but yes. So if you need help with
your dating life, though, unless you're talking to closed bathroom doors,
you can always reach out to the show. We'll call
that person who's not calling you back. You can go
find all of our Second Day podcasts available online wherever
you get them. Apro and Jeffrey

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

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.
