Speaker 1 (00:00):
He's Brig and Jeffrey in the morning. Welcome to the
Second Day Podcast. And who knew throwing yourself your own
wedding where you marry yourself would.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
Be so controversial? Very true. I think it's a father
daughter dance that got a lot of people.
Speaker 3 (00:12):
Yeah, I did see a few comments in that one
as well.
Speaker 1 (00:14):
Oh yes, I'm referring to yesterday's brand new second Date.
We do have a brand new textual healing coming up
in just a minute, but we want to go over
some thoughts and feelings in our comments section about what
happened on yesterday's show.
Speaker 3 (00:27):
Yeah, we got a lot of like, as soon as
she was manifesting, I checked.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
Out people are into manifesting.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
It's a negative thing, I guess.
Speaker 3 (00:36):
So that's what a lot said about her wedding. But
then a lot of people said she needs to recaption
her photos as saying a self love photo show. More
like about that.
Speaker 4 (00:44):
I think about if she captioned it help.
Speaker 2 (00:47):
This is just a good example if we don't need
to post everything.
Speaker 1 (00:50):
Yeah, you know, like keep the photos for yourself awesome,
But she.
Speaker 4 (00:54):
Had a wedding you would want to post her because it.
Speaker 2 (00:57):
Looks so good. True.
Speaker 3 (00:58):
Oh and this one. If she's paying for the second wedding,
sign me up.
Speaker 5 (01:02):
You know she's obviously very successful.
Speaker 2 (01:05):
Yeah, totally.
Speaker 6 (01:06):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:07):
You know there's somebody for everybody. All right, thank you
so much for always participating. We're getting your brand new
textual healing started now.
Speaker 4 (01:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (01:16):
If you get a text from an unknown number, normally
you just reported as junk block and delete it forget
about it.
Speaker 4 (01:23):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (01:25):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (01:25):
Even if I get a text from Brook, I report
it junk block.
Speaker 4 (01:30):
Delete okay, report that one.
Speaker 2 (01:31):
Yeah that is not funny, write me back.
Speaker 5 (01:34):
One of our listeners got a message from a mystery
phone number, but what it said was too juicy to
toss away. In fact, it's very clear that they know
each other really, and he has to get to the
bottom of who is sending them because if he doesn't,
he might miss out on a sweet opportunity. You're gonna
hear it in a brand new textual healing right after
(01:56):
this textual healing textual there is one place that we
need you to be touching right now, Jeff. It is
not on each other or even on yourself. It's on
(02:17):
your phones.
Speaker 6 (02:18):
Yay.
Speaker 5 (02:18):
Yes, we want you to move those fingers. Ever so
gently and prepared to type out a message that feels
oh so right.
Speaker 1 (02:26):
I feel like I need to ask for my phone
consent when you talk about it that way.
Speaker 5 (02:30):
That's right, I'll unlock you with my eyes. Because it's
a brand new textual healing the segment where we help
a listener craft the perfect message to instantly fix any
problem they might be facing, or, if not fix it,
at least get out of a weird situation. And an
urgent request came in this morning from one of our
listeners named Joe, who needed some textual help. So, Joe,
(02:53):
welcome to the show.
Speaker 6 (02:54):
Thank you so much for helping me. I am in
dire need of healing.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
Oh wow, you do sound desperate it I don't think
that was an insult or anything.
Speaker 3 (03:03):
I mean, he admits it.
Speaker 5 (03:04):
Yeah, okay, let's find out exactly how desperate you are.
What made you reach out to us for help.
Speaker 6 (03:10):
Last weekend, I was at a house party with a
bunch of friends and also a lot of people I
didn't know, and we were boozing it up. I met
a few ladies. I had a good time. Next day
I get a message that says, hey, Joe, I had
a great time last night winki face.
Speaker 5 (03:30):
Oh okay, something happened.
Speaker 6 (03:36):
I did hook up with a couple of late, but
I don't know who it.
Speaker 3 (03:38):
Is those people.
Speaker 4 (03:44):
Anything.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
What does hookup mean to you?
Speaker 6 (03:46):
Like it's second base?
Speaker 5 (03:47):
Okay, all right, okay, do you have any idea who
the message is from?
Speaker 6 (03:52):
No idea, not at all.
Speaker 5 (03:53):
It's just a random number.
Speaker 6 (03:55):
I sat on it. I didn't send anything back, and
then they sent me a second text.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
That's the second one.
Speaker 6 (04:00):
Say They're like, I'm up for round two if you are?
Speaker 2 (04:05):
Wait?
Speaker 6 (04:06):
Whoa?
Speaker 2 (04:06):
And how does that make you feel? Joe?
Speaker 6 (04:08):
I mean, I feel like it's a slam dunk, but
I want to make sure I know what I'm getting into,
especially if you're.
Speaker 4 (04:15):
Like skilled while you're blacked out, Like, dude, good for you.
Speaker 2 (04:19):
So, like, what are your options right now?
Speaker 1 (04:21):
You either show up to a place and just hope
you recognize a person.
Speaker 6 (04:24):
Oh yeah, that's the best case scenario. Worst case scenario.
Who knows how bad it gets?
Speaker 2 (04:30):
So have you responded at all?
Speaker 6 (04:32):
Not at all? Because I want to figure out what
the perfect thing to send is.
Speaker 5 (04:35):
Okay, Well, let's start off with what we know. You
said you think you made out with multiple women at
least two. Do you remember either of their names?
Speaker 1 (04:45):
No, oh, you don't remember that even Hey, I feel
you Joe.
Speaker 6 (04:49):
Okay, there's there's backyard and there's bathroom.
Speaker 5 (04:52):
Okay, ba girl and bathroom girl. Right, do you have
a preference between the two?
Speaker 6 (04:59):
I like the bathroom him one better.
Speaker 5 (05:00):
Okay, but you're not saying no.
Speaker 3 (05:04):
Back girl says, this is guys talk about me after
a party.
Speaker 6 (05:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (05:09):
Now, this is tricky because you're trying to figure it out.
You can't say, hey, yeah, that was fun in the backyard,
or I'll never enter a bathroom the same way again.
So what can we What can we say that's right
in the middle, that doesn't give away he isn't sure
who this person.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
Is, but we do want to still get some information
from them to try to figure it out.
Speaker 4 (05:28):
Yes, I think we make a statement. We just say, oh,
I think I'm still hungover.
Speaker 3 (05:33):
And a photo.
Speaker 6 (05:35):
What about you?
Speaker 1 (05:37):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (05:39):
Smart, I don't know if he's going to remember what
they look like.
Speaker 5 (05:41):
Yeah, well, maybe that's a good opportunity. Here's a picture
of my face hungover. Let's see a picture of yours hungover.
Speaker 2 (05:47):
Or that's an instant turn off. The face hungover actually
that's a good point.
Speaker 5 (05:53):
We're back at zero again. So what is something that's
kind of flirtatious because we're trying to keep the door
open for another connection to happen, but is also like
who are you?
Speaker 3 (06:05):
What's the second text she said?
Speaker 6 (06:06):
Or it was just the one up for round two?
Speaker 5 (06:08):
If you are okay this person wants a round two?
Speaker 6 (06:11):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (06:11):
What if you say where do you want round two
to happen this time?
Speaker 4 (06:15):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (06:16):
And then cross our fingers that they say not the backyard.
Speaker 3 (06:20):
Or not.
Speaker 5 (06:22):
I want to be on the toilet again. We'll see.
I mean, I don't know, maybe what do you think
of that? Joe?
Speaker 6 (06:28):
I don't know. I feel like I'm still leaving myself
open to get screwed over if I said the wrong thing.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
M Yeah, what's your idea?
Speaker 4 (06:37):
You could play completely dumb. Actually you're not playing dumb
and just say, oh my god, I don't think I
saved your number? Who is this?
Speaker 5 (06:43):
I mean that might be a risky one because if
you're the other person receiving that text, they might be
offended thinking like, oh, you don't even remember me, you
got multi numbers. I mean, honestly, I hate to say this,
but I kind of like. I still like Brooks first idea.
Speaker 1 (06:58):
Actually, anyone said to me it was like round two
going down in the same spot, same spot.
Speaker 5 (07:04):
As last time, and then you probably want to be
suggestive with like a winkie face, maybe even the tongue
out emoji with the one winking eye.
Speaker 6 (07:12):
All right, you want to go with that one, sure?
Speaker 5 (07:15):
Or you can go with is round two going down
for real? In flo Rida? Oh no, he's still big?
Speaker 6 (07:23):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (07:24):
At state fairs all across the country's.
Speaker 5 (07:26):
Down place state fairs.
Speaker 4 (07:27):
Why don't we just say we should go to a
flow ride of concert?
Speaker 5 (07:30):
Sometimes I think Brooke had the best idea.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
God, I love when Jeff says that, can you say
it again?
Speaker 5 (07:36):
I'm saying it with extreme disappointment.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
In his arms.
Speaker 1 (07:40):
Did cross it across his chest and he's slunk down
in his chair?
Speaker 5 (07:44):
But what do you think about typing that?
Speaker 6 (07:46):
All right? So if I do a tongue out single
eye emoji, sounds great. Same spot as last time, question
mark and then the same emoji again.
Speaker 3 (07:54):
Why are the emoji's first?
Speaker 5 (07:56):
I like I like more emojist.
Speaker 6 (07:59):
Like Spanish where you put the question marks on both sides.
Speaker 1 (08:02):
I think you need to do like a haha after
same spot as last time, because it's feeling really serious
the way you're responding instead of cute flirty.
Speaker 6 (08:10):
Yeah. Okay, that's a good point, Broke.
Speaker 5 (08:13):
I mean, maybe you can even toss in a toilet
a toilet emoji.
Speaker 2 (08:16):
What if you're wrong?
Speaker 5 (08:17):
Well, then they'll be like what do you what does
that mean? And you can say, oh, sorry, my finger slipped.
Speaker 1 (08:21):
That's not bad because then you put the toilet and
he's right, and then you'd be like, oh, sorry, my bad,
I meant this one.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
Yeah, and you send swing set.
Speaker 5 (08:26):
People mistake their text all the time.
Speaker 3 (08:28):
Yeah, all the people send me accidental toilet emo all
the time.
Speaker 2 (08:32):
You can always say the toilet represented my hangover.
Speaker 4 (08:36):
Yeah good, I actually like you.
Speaker 5 (08:38):
Okay, there's a lot of way we're still backpedal out
of it if it goes wrong, but let's just toss
one out there so you can send that.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
Okay, Okay.
Speaker 5 (08:50):
Maybe one of the sexiest text messages is we've ever
crafted on this show.
Speaker 4 (08:54):
The first time.
Speaker 5 (08:55):
We've worked a toilet into the text. We're gonna come back.
Hopefully this person, this mystery person will respond to you,
and we can keep the momentum going with more textual healing.
Right after this, we're in the middle of textual healing
with our listener Joe, who reached out because he needs
(09:15):
our help figuring out who texted him the day after
a big house party. Maybe was it the girl he
made out with in the backyard or the girl he
made out with in the bathroom, or is there a.
Speaker 4 (09:28):
Mysterious other girl that we didn't need to bring up that. Yeah,
he's like, I forgot about the kitchen girl.
Speaker 5 (09:34):
Yeah, he doesn't know because there's no name attached to
the phone number. It's just a few messages saying had
fun with you last night, up for a round too soon.
Speaker 2 (09:43):
Even if there was a name, he doesn't remember the
girl's name, it doesn't matter.
Speaker 5 (09:47):
It wouldn't be very clear. He doesn't want to give
that away though, that he doesn't know who is texting
and asked for our help and what to respond with.
The best thing we came up with, and best is
in quotations. When I say this, what's for him to say,
I'm down same place as last time? Wink emoji toilet emoji. Yes, yes,
because you can always backtrack and say, oh oops, that
(10:08):
was a mistake. Yeah, Yeah, So the question Joe is,
has this mystery texture responded to our message?
Speaker 6 (10:14):
Yeah, but it hasn't gotten better.
Speaker 2 (10:16):
Oh no, what do you mean? What did they say?
Speaker 6 (10:20):
Let's say no compreende laugh emoji? What does that mean?
Speaker 3 (10:25):
Oh so it must be the backyard girl.
Speaker 2 (10:27):
Yeah, right, isn't that better? Does that mean she didn't
understand the toilet?
Speaker 5 (10:31):
Okay, So if I'm looking at the percentages right now,
the bathroom girl went down to you about twenty percent. Yeah,
backyard girl has gone up to sixty percent, and we
still have about twenty percent left for mystery person. So
now how do we clear this up? Because we can
always say sorry, my fingers slipped, I meant to hit
hard emoji.
Speaker 3 (10:50):
Yeah, do you have to say heart?
Speaker 6 (10:52):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (10:54):
Okay, yellow heart emoji my friendship Mary? Yeah. Sure, that's
just backtracking. It doesn't get us any closer to the
answer of this person.
Speaker 2 (11:05):
So wait, wait, wait, she said what again? No comprende?
Speaker 6 (11:09):
He said no comprende. Then she put a laugh emoji,
and then she goes what does that.
Speaker 4 (11:13):
Mean translated herself?
Speaker 2 (11:16):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (11:19):
Okay, Well we're trying to figure out her name or
what she looks like, like, what are we trying to
find out.
Speaker 5 (11:23):
About it bas room or backyard.
Speaker 6 (11:25):
Okay, at least a name would jog my memory.
Speaker 2 (11:28):
Okay, what about this? What about this?
Speaker 1 (11:29):
You just say, okay, fine, you pick the spot, and
then you leave her making the move on where to go.
Speaker 5 (11:37):
I like that. I like that a lot. You picked
the spot, and I'll meet you there.
Speaker 4 (11:41):
But we still don't know who this person is exactly.
Speaker 5 (11:43):
Sure, but it might get us a little bit closer
with her response.
Speaker 3 (11:47):
Yeah, so we're ignoring her asking what he meant by
the toilet?
Speaker 2 (11:50):
Yeah, we just ignoring it.
Speaker 1 (11:52):
Okay, Yeah, we're going to pretend like we don't know
what that what she's talking Okay.
Speaker 5 (11:56):
In fact, you could start with a laugh emoji like
I'm not listening.
Speaker 4 (11:59):
Yeah, you should just react. You have an iPhone you
can laugh at their comment.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
Oh that's right, okay, okay, ha ha, that's good.
Speaker 2 (12:08):
Haha. That okay, fine, you picked the spot.
Speaker 6 (12:10):
All right.
Speaker 5 (12:10):
It's interesting advice from the only Samsung Galaxy owner in
the room.
Speaker 4 (12:14):
But I get crab from enough iPhone people. I know
how to use one idea of using I'm this.
Speaker 5 (12:20):
Is coming in handy, So go ahead. Have you typed
that out?
Speaker 6 (12:22):
Joe yeah, I did the laugh emoji and I just
said the okay, fine, you picked the spot.
Speaker 5 (12:28):
Okay, all right.
Speaker 4 (12:31):
That was so stressful just to say something so normals.
Speaker 5 (12:36):
And it's so hard. It's not even our texts. We
have nothing on the line here.
Speaker 1 (12:40):
Oh my god, I would overanalyze this so bad after
a party and making out with dudes.
Speaker 4 (12:45):
She's got to give us something after this.
Speaker 6 (12:47):
I just got an answer.
Speaker 5 (12:49):
This girl's invested in you. This is a good sign.
What did she say?
Speaker 2 (12:52):
Decision making good for us?
Speaker 6 (12:54):
She said, not sure what you're on?
Speaker 4 (12:57):
What?
Speaker 2 (12:59):
That's it?
Speaker 4 (13:00):
That's it?
Speaker 6 (13:00):
And then she said, Alyssa said, you're coming to her
thing on Friday. So let's rewind last weekend over there.
Speaker 1 (13:07):
Hey, ok, you're going to another house party and you're
going to make out with another girl that you don't know.
Speaker 5 (13:12):
Do you know, Alyssa?
Speaker 6 (13:14):
Yeah, yeah, she's in our friend group and she's throwing
a rager this weekend.
Speaker 1 (13:17):
Okay, So does that give you a clue of who
this woman is it's texting you?
Speaker 6 (13:22):
Well, yeah, but the thing is, now that I know
if she's in our friend group, that just is even weirder.
Speaker 5 (13:27):
Does it give you any clue to being backyard girl,
bathroom girl, do you know?
Speaker 6 (13:31):
No, it's not pointing either way.
Speaker 2 (13:35):
You're starting to feel useless to me.
Speaker 5 (13:37):
Yeah, I don't know if you know it. If you
belong in this friend group, what if you.
Speaker 4 (13:40):
Kissed somebody else who also has like a boyfriend or girlfriend?
Speaker 5 (13:43):
Like yeah, actually, Jose, maybe that's the reason why they're
texting from a brand new number, because they're hiding it
from their significant other.
Speaker 6 (13:50):
Bird.
Speaker 5 (13:50):
Oh, Joe, you're the secret third piece.
Speaker 3 (13:52):
We're at a party with all their friends and cheated
in front of everybody.
Speaker 2 (13:55):
Yeah, inside a bathroom elect we're in backyard.
Speaker 5 (13:59):
Yeah, makes it kind of naughty and fun, But is it?
I mean, at this point, do we need to be
more direct and like start asking for a name?
Speaker 4 (14:05):
I really think we just go who is this?
Speaker 6 (14:08):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (14:08):
I mean I mean something like that. But it's a
little on the edge because you still are risking offending
them by saying I don't remember your name.
Speaker 3 (14:15):
They're talking about round two of a party then, right,
they're not talking about hooking up. They're just saying run
it back.
Speaker 6 (14:19):
Like, run it back is fine, but round two means
something else to me.
Speaker 2 (14:24):
Maybe they just need round two, like drinking. Yeah, maybe
they did it. Maybe this isn't a person you made
out with at all.
Speaker 4 (14:31):
This could be one of your like anybody, Yes.
Speaker 6 (14:35):
I've made out with a lot of people, so I
doubt it.
Speaker 5 (14:37):
Okay, Well, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (14:40):
I feel like this whole thing has just been some
humble brag to tell us everybody on the radio, how
many people you make out with at parties?
Speaker 5 (14:46):
Yeah, I am jealous for sure of you. Start's working,
but we still need to figure it this person out.
Would it be a good hint to ask, like, who
are you coming with to Alyssa's event? That give a
which particular friend to hang out with them?
Speaker 2 (15:01):
I like that, Jess.
Speaker 4 (15:02):
They could just say my wife's fun.
Speaker 5 (15:05):
Okay, Well that would give you a little bit of
a clue. Yeah, I mean that's the best idea we
have right now. How do you feel about texting it?
Speaker 6 (15:12):
I'm down. Let's go for it.
Speaker 1 (15:14):
Yeah, all right, this is the probably riskiest one we've
said for real.
Speaker 5 (15:18):
Let's see.
Speaker 1 (15:19):
Well, I mean I think it's going to give us
the most information. Yeah, probably just started with this to
be honest.
Speaker 5 (15:26):
Okay, he sent it, but yeah, at the time, we
didn't know that this person was also going to Alyssa's
house party, and it's someone that's in the tight social groups.
Speaker 2 (15:34):
Been in a house party in so long?
Speaker 1 (15:36):
I want to go to Alissa's hot You would be a.
Speaker 5 (15:40):
Good backyard girl.
Speaker 1 (15:41):
Oh dude, I could guarantee I made out with more
people than this guy.
Speaker 2 (15:52):
I love making out.
Speaker 6 (15:54):
I got an answer.
Speaker 5 (15:55):
Okay, are we any closer to knowing who this person is?
Speaker 2 (15:59):
You know?
Speaker 6 (16:01):
I mean not? Yeah, yes, I mean there's a nickname.
But that's as close as I can get.
Speaker 5 (16:07):
What does it say?
Speaker 6 (16:08):
It says if we play Angus and his girlfriend again,
let me shoot first, we'll dominate them.
Speaker 5 (16:15):
Beer pong play what or basketball?
Speaker 6 (16:18):
It's beer pong?
Speaker 2 (16:21):
Did you play beer pong with the girl that you
made out with?
Speaker 6 (16:24):
I didn't make out with her. We just played beer pong.
Speaker 5 (16:26):
Oh okay, so it sounds like it's not the backyard girl,
and it's not the bathroom girl. It's mystery girl number three,
beer pong.
Speaker 6 (16:34):
Girl, beer pong girl.
Speaker 2 (16:35):
Yeah, we didn't make out.
Speaker 6 (16:38):
With No, it's not really my type.
Speaker 5 (16:41):
Wait, what do you mean she's not your type? You
said everybody's your type.
Speaker 6 (16:45):
Well, if I had to rank him, toilet girl goes first,
then backyard girl break beer Pong's not even in the game.
Speaker 2 (16:53):
You're seeing really ungrateful right now. We're helping you out
for next week.
Speaker 4 (16:57):
Drunk you game were your number? You called this on yourself.
Speaker 5 (17:00):
Yeah, So are you gonna actually meet up with beer
Pong Girl?
Speaker 6 (17:03):
Yeah, I guess, But I'm more disappointed that backyard Girl
and toilet Girl don't want to do round two with me.
Speaker 3 (17:09):
I'm sure a new bathroom and backyard girl at the
next party.
Speaker 1 (17:12):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (17:12):
If you text us the address, brookell show up. She
can be all three for you at the same time.
Speaker 4 (17:16):
It's like a triple kid.
Speaker 2 (17:17):
Don't worry, I'll bring my husband to.
Speaker 6 (17:22):
Freaking Jeffrey in the morning.
Speaker 5 (17:25):
Well, you know what they say. Beggars can't be choosers,
And unfortunately for Joe, he's kind of trying to be
too big.
Speaker 2 (17:32):
Yes, you choosey whatever does a begging down? Yeah, he
doesn't care of me. No is your name?
Speaker 5 (17:40):
He was really disappointed that it wasn't bathroom Girl his
top choice. It wasn't even his backup choice backyard girl.
Now he's stuck with beer Pong.
Speaker 1 (17:49):
Lady, which she could be the cutest and the best
out of all of them.
Speaker 2 (17:53):
He just doesn't remember you drinking too much.
Speaker 4 (17:55):
I just hope he never finds out that she's ranked
lower than toilet girls.
Speaker 2 (17:59):
Yeah, yeah, that is messed up.
Speaker 4 (18:00):
I don't know why. It just rubs me the wrong.
Speaker 2 (18:02):
Well, it's not a great nickname totally.
Speaker 5 (18:04):
It's weird that he suddenly had standards.
Speaker 4 (18:06):
Out of the blue.
Speaker 5 (18:07):
The thing is, we don't have any standards on this show,
not for our listeners, not for ourselves. We love you
no matter where we may have hooked up with you.
Speaker 1 (18:15):
That's right, That is right, jeff You know we probably
have yes and so hey follow our socials at Brook
and Jeffrey and shoot us a DM.
Speaker 2 (18:24):
Remind us where it happened.
He's Brig and Jeffrey in the morning. Welcome to the
Second Day Podcast. And who knew throwing yourself your own
wedding where you marry yourself would.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
Be so controversial? Very true. I think it's a father
daughter dance that got a lot of people.
Speaker 3 (00:12):
Yeah, I did see a few comments in that one
as well.
Speaker 1 (00:14):
Oh yes, I'm referring to yesterday's brand new second Date.
We do have a brand new textual healing coming up
in just a minute, but we want to go over
some thoughts and feelings in our comments section about what
happened on yesterday's show.
Speaker 3 (00:27):
Yeah, we got a lot of like, as soon as
she was manifesting, I checked.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
Out people are into manifesting.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
It's a negative thing, I guess.
Speaker 3 (00:36):
So that's what a lot said about her wedding. But
then a lot of people said she needs to recaption
her photos as saying a self love photo show. More
like about that.
Speaker 4 (00:44):
I think about if she captioned it help.
Speaker 2 (00:47):
This is just a good example if we don't need
to post everything.
Speaker 1 (00:50):
Yeah, you know, like keep the photos for yourself awesome,
But she.
Speaker 4 (00:54):
Had a wedding you would want to post her because it.
Speaker 2 (00:57):
Looks so good. True.
Speaker 3 (00:58):
Oh and this one. If she's paying for the second wedding,
sign me up.
Speaker 5 (01:02):
You know she's obviously very successful.
Speaker 2 (01:05):
Yeah, totally.
Speaker 6 (01:06):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:07):
You know there's somebody for everybody. All right, thank you
so much for always participating. We're getting your brand new
textual healing started now.
Speaker 4 (01:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (01:16):
If you get a text from an unknown number, normally
you just reported as junk block and delete it forget
about it.
Speaker 4 (01:23):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (01:25):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (01:25):
Even if I get a text from Brook, I report
it junk block.
Speaker 4 (01:30):
Delete okay, report that one.
Speaker 2 (01:31):
Yeah that is not funny, write me back.
Speaker 5 (01:34):
One of our listeners got a message from a mystery
phone number, but what it said was too juicy to
toss away. In fact, it's very clear that they know
each other really, and he has to get to the
bottom of who is sending them because if he doesn't,
he might miss out on a sweet opportunity. You're gonna
hear it in a brand new textual healing right after
(01:56):
this textual healing textual there is one place that we
need you to be touching right now, Jeff. It is
not on each other or even on yourself. It's on
(02:17):
your phones.
Speaker 6 (02:18):
Yay.
Speaker 5 (02:18):
Yes, we want you to move those fingers. Ever so
gently and prepared to type out a message that feels
oh so right.
Speaker 1 (02:26):
I feel like I need to ask for my phone
consent when you talk about it that way.
Speaker 5 (02:30):
That's right, I'll unlock you with my eyes. Because it's
a brand new textual healing the segment where we help
a listener craft the perfect message to instantly fix any
problem they might be facing, or, if not fix it,
at least get out of a weird situation. And an
urgent request came in this morning from one of our
listeners named Joe, who needed some textual help. So, Joe,
(02:53):
welcome to the show.
Speaker 6 (02:54):
Thank you so much for helping me. I am in
dire need of healing.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
Oh wow, you do sound desperate it I don't think
that was an insult or anything.
Speaker 3 (03:03):
I mean, he admits it.
Speaker 5 (03:04):
Yeah, okay, let's find out exactly how desperate you are.
What made you reach out to us for help.
Speaker 6 (03:10):
Last weekend, I was at a house party with a
bunch of friends and also a lot of people I
didn't know, and we were boozing it up. I met
a few ladies. I had a good time. Next day
I get a message that says, hey, Joe, I had
a great time last night winki face.
Speaker 5 (03:30):
Oh okay, something happened.
Speaker 6 (03:36):
I did hook up with a couple of late, but
I don't know who it.
Speaker 3 (03:38):
Is those people.
Speaker 4 (03:44):
Anything.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
What does hookup mean to you?
Speaker 6 (03:46):
Like it's second base?
Speaker 5 (03:47):
Okay, all right, okay, do you have any idea who
the message is from?
Speaker 6 (03:52):
No idea, not at all.
Speaker 5 (03:53):
It's just a random number.
Speaker 6 (03:55):
I sat on it. I didn't send anything back, and
then they sent me a second text.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
That's the second one.
Speaker 6 (04:00):
Say They're like, I'm up for round two if you are?
Speaker 2 (04:05):
Wait?
Speaker 6 (04:06):
Whoa?
Speaker 2 (04:06):
And how does that make you feel? Joe?
Speaker 6 (04:08):
I mean, I feel like it's a slam dunk, but
I want to make sure I know what I'm getting into,
especially if you're.
Speaker 4 (04:15):
Like skilled while you're blacked out, Like, dude, good for you.
Speaker 2 (04:19):
So, like, what are your options right now?
Speaker 1 (04:21):
You either show up to a place and just hope
you recognize a person.
Speaker 6 (04:24):
Oh yeah, that's the best case scenario. Worst case scenario.
Who knows how bad it gets?
Speaker 2 (04:30):
So have you responded at all?
Speaker 6 (04:32):
Not at all? Because I want to figure out what
the perfect thing to send is.
Speaker 5 (04:35):
Okay, Well, let's start off with what we know. You
said you think you made out with multiple women at
least two. Do you remember either of their names?
Speaker 1 (04:45):
No, oh, you don't remember that even Hey, I feel
you Joe.
Speaker 6 (04:49):
Okay, there's there's backyard and there's bathroom.
Speaker 5 (04:52):
Okay, ba girl and bathroom girl. Right, do you have
a preference between the two?
Speaker 6 (04:59):
I like the bathroom him one better.
Speaker 5 (05:00):
Okay, but you're not saying no.
Speaker 3 (05:04):
Back girl says, this is guys talk about me after
a party.
Speaker 6 (05:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (05:09):
Now, this is tricky because you're trying to figure it out.
You can't say, hey, yeah, that was fun in the backyard,
or I'll never enter a bathroom the same way again.
So what can we What can we say that's right
in the middle, that doesn't give away he isn't sure
who this person.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
Is, but we do want to still get some information
from them to try to figure it out.
Speaker 4 (05:28):
Yes, I think we make a statement. We just say, oh,
I think I'm still hungover.
Speaker 3 (05:33):
And a photo.
Speaker 6 (05:35):
What about you?
Speaker 1 (05:37):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (05:39):
Smart, I don't know if he's going to remember what
they look like.
Speaker 5 (05:41):
Yeah, well, maybe that's a good opportunity. Here's a picture
of my face hungover. Let's see a picture of yours hungover.
Speaker 2 (05:47):
Or that's an instant turn off. The face hungover actually
that's a good point.
Speaker 5 (05:53):
We're back at zero again. So what is something that's
kind of flirtatious because we're trying to keep the door
open for another connection to happen, but is also like
who are you?
Speaker 3 (06:05):
What's the second text she said?
Speaker 6 (06:06):
Or it was just the one up for round two?
Speaker 5 (06:08):
If you are okay this person wants a round two?
Speaker 6 (06:11):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (06:11):
What if you say where do you want round two
to happen this time?
Speaker 4 (06:15):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (06:16):
And then cross our fingers that they say not the backyard.
Speaker 3 (06:20):
Or not.
Speaker 5 (06:22):
I want to be on the toilet again. We'll see.
I mean, I don't know, maybe what do you think
of that? Joe?
Speaker 6 (06:28):
I don't know. I feel like I'm still leaving myself
open to get screwed over if I said the wrong thing.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
M Yeah, what's your idea?
Speaker 4 (06:37):
You could play completely dumb. Actually you're not playing dumb
and just say, oh my god, I don't think I
saved your number? Who is this?
Speaker 5 (06:43):
I mean that might be a risky one because if
you're the other person receiving that text, they might be
offended thinking like, oh, you don't even remember me, you
got multi numbers. I mean, honestly, I hate to say this,
but I kind of like. I still like Brooks first idea.
Speaker 1 (06:58):
Actually, anyone said to me it was like round two
going down in the same spot, same spot.
Speaker 5 (07:04):
As last time, and then you probably want to be
suggestive with like a winkie face, maybe even the tongue
out emoji with the one winking eye.
Speaker 6 (07:12):
All right, you want to go with that one, sure?
Speaker 5 (07:15):
Or you can go with is round two going down
for real? In flo Rida? Oh no, he's still big?
Speaker 6 (07:23):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (07:24):
At state fairs all across the country's.
Speaker 5 (07:26):
Down place state fairs.
Speaker 4 (07:27):
Why don't we just say we should go to a
flow ride of concert?
Speaker 5 (07:30):
Sometimes I think Brooke had the best idea.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
God, I love when Jeff says that, can you say
it again?
Speaker 5 (07:36):
I'm saying it with extreme disappointment.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
In his arms.
Speaker 1 (07:40):
Did cross it across his chest and he's slunk down
in his chair?
Speaker 5 (07:44):
But what do you think about typing that?
Speaker 6 (07:46):
All right? So if I do a tongue out single
eye emoji, sounds great. Same spot as last time, question
mark and then the same emoji again.
Speaker 3 (07:54):
Why are the emoji's first?
Speaker 5 (07:56):
I like I like more emojist.
Speaker 6 (07:59):
Like Spanish where you put the question marks on both sides.
Speaker 1 (08:02):
I think you need to do like a haha after
same spot as last time, because it's feeling really serious
the way you're responding instead of cute flirty.
Speaker 6 (08:10):
Yeah. Okay, that's a good point, Broke.
Speaker 5 (08:13):
I mean, maybe you can even toss in a toilet
a toilet emoji.
Speaker 2 (08:16):
What if you're wrong?
Speaker 5 (08:17):
Well, then they'll be like what do you what does
that mean? And you can say, oh, sorry, my finger slipped.
Speaker 1 (08:21):
That's not bad because then you put the toilet and
he's right, and then you'd be like, oh, sorry, my bad,
I meant this one.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
Yeah, and you send swing set.
Speaker 5 (08:26):
People mistake their text all the time.
Speaker 3 (08:28):
Yeah, all the people send me accidental toilet emo all
the time.
Speaker 2 (08:32):
You can always say the toilet represented my hangover.
Speaker 4 (08:36):
Yeah good, I actually like you.
Speaker 5 (08:38):
Okay, there's a lot of way we're still backpedal out
of it if it goes wrong, but let's just toss
one out there so you can send that.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
Okay, Okay.
Speaker 5 (08:50):
Maybe one of the sexiest text messages is we've ever
crafted on this show.
Speaker 4 (08:54):
The first time.
Speaker 5 (08:55):
We've worked a toilet into the text. We're gonna come back.
Hopefully this person, this mystery person will respond to you,
and we can keep the momentum going with more textual healing.
Right after this, we're in the middle of textual healing
with our listener Joe, who reached out because he needs
(09:15):
our help figuring out who texted him the day after
a big house party. Maybe was it the girl he
made out with in the backyard or the girl he
made out with in the bathroom, or is there a.
Speaker 4 (09:28):
Mysterious other girl that we didn't need to bring up that. Yeah,
he's like, I forgot about the kitchen girl.
Speaker 5 (09:34):
Yeah, he doesn't know because there's no name attached to
the phone number. It's just a few messages saying had
fun with you last night, up for a round too soon.
Speaker 2 (09:43):
Even if there was a name, he doesn't remember the
girl's name, it doesn't matter.
Speaker 5 (09:47):
It wouldn't be very clear. He doesn't want to give
that away though, that he doesn't know who is texting
and asked for our help and what to respond with.
The best thing we came up with, and best is
in quotations. When I say this, what's for him to say,
I'm down same place as last time? Wink emoji toilet emoji. Yes, yes,
because you can always backtrack and say, oh oops, that
(10:08):
was a mistake. Yeah, Yeah, So the question Joe is,
has this mystery texture responded to our message?
Speaker 6 (10:14):
Yeah, but it hasn't gotten better.
Speaker 2 (10:16):
Oh no, what do you mean? What did they say?
Speaker 6 (10:20):
Let's say no compreende laugh emoji? What does that mean?
Speaker 3 (10:25):
Oh so it must be the backyard girl.
Speaker 2 (10:27):
Yeah, right, isn't that better? Does that mean she didn't
understand the toilet?
Speaker 5 (10:31):
Okay, So if I'm looking at the percentages right now,
the bathroom girl went down to you about twenty percent. Yeah,
backyard girl has gone up to sixty percent, and we
still have about twenty percent left for mystery person. So
now how do we clear this up? Because we can
always say sorry, my fingers slipped, I meant to hit
hard emoji.
Speaker 3 (10:50):
Yeah, do you have to say heart?
Speaker 6 (10:52):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (10:54):
Okay, yellow heart emoji my friendship Mary? Yeah. Sure, that's
just backtracking. It doesn't get us any closer to the
answer of this person.
Speaker 2 (11:05):
So wait, wait, wait, she said what again? No comprende?
Speaker 6 (11:09):
He said no comprende. Then she put a laugh emoji,
and then she goes what does that.
Speaker 4 (11:13):
Mean translated herself?
Speaker 2 (11:16):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (11:19):
Okay, Well we're trying to figure out her name or
what she looks like, like, what are we trying to
find out.
Speaker 5 (11:23):
About it bas room or backyard.
Speaker 6 (11:25):
Okay, at least a name would jog my memory.
Speaker 2 (11:28):
Okay, what about this? What about this?
Speaker 1 (11:29):
You just say, okay, fine, you pick the spot, and
then you leave her making the move on where to go.
Speaker 5 (11:37):
I like that. I like that a lot. You picked
the spot, and I'll meet you there.
Speaker 4 (11:41):
But we still don't know who this person is exactly.
Speaker 5 (11:43):
Sure, but it might get us a little bit closer
with her response.
Speaker 3 (11:47):
Yeah, so we're ignoring her asking what he meant by
the toilet?
Speaker 2 (11:50):
Yeah, we just ignoring it.
Speaker 1 (11:52):
Okay, Yeah, we're going to pretend like we don't know
what that what she's talking Okay.
Speaker 5 (11:56):
In fact, you could start with a laugh emoji like
I'm not listening.
Speaker 4 (11:59):
Yeah, you should just react. You have an iPhone you
can laugh at their comment.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
Oh that's right, okay, okay, ha ha, that's good.
Speaker 2 (12:08):
Haha. That okay, fine, you picked the spot.
Speaker 6 (12:10):
All right.
Speaker 5 (12:10):
It's interesting advice from the only Samsung Galaxy owner in
the room.
Speaker 4 (12:14):
But I get crab from enough iPhone people. I know
how to use one idea of using I'm this.
Speaker 5 (12:20):
Is coming in handy, So go ahead. Have you typed
that out?
Speaker 6 (12:22):
Joe yeah, I did the laugh emoji and I just
said the okay, fine, you picked the spot.
Speaker 5 (12:28):
Okay, all right.
Speaker 4 (12:31):
That was so stressful just to say something so normals.
Speaker 5 (12:36):
And it's so hard. It's not even our texts. We
have nothing on the line here.
Speaker 1 (12:40):
Oh my god, I would overanalyze this so bad after
a party and making out with dudes.
Speaker 4 (12:45):
She's got to give us something after this.
Speaker 6 (12:47):
I just got an answer.
Speaker 5 (12:49):
This girl's invested in you. This is a good sign.
What did she say?
Speaker 2 (12:52):
Decision making good for us?
Speaker 6 (12:54):
She said, not sure what you're on?
Speaker 4 (12:57):
What?
Speaker 2 (12:59):
That's it?
Speaker 4 (13:00):
That's it?
Speaker 6 (13:00):
And then she said, Alyssa said, you're coming to her
thing on Friday. So let's rewind last weekend over there.
Speaker 1 (13:07):
Hey, ok, you're going to another house party and you're
going to make out with another girl that you don't know.
Speaker 5 (13:12):
Do you know, Alyssa?
Speaker 6 (13:14):
Yeah, yeah, she's in our friend group and she's throwing
a rager this weekend.
Speaker 1 (13:17):
Okay, So does that give you a clue of who
this woman is it's texting you?
Speaker 6 (13:22):
Well, yeah, but the thing is, now that I know
if she's in our friend group, that just is even weirder.
Speaker 5 (13:27):
Does it give you any clue to being backyard girl,
bathroom girl, do you know?
Speaker 6 (13:31):
No, it's not pointing either way.
Speaker 2 (13:35):
You're starting to feel useless to me.
Speaker 5 (13:37):
Yeah, I don't know if you know it. If you
belong in this friend group, what if you.
Speaker 4 (13:40):
Kissed somebody else who also has like a boyfriend or girlfriend?
Speaker 5 (13:43):
Like yeah, actually, Jose, maybe that's the reason why they're
texting from a brand new number, because they're hiding it
from their significant other.
Speaker 6 (13:50):
Bird.
Speaker 5 (13:50):
Oh, Joe, you're the secret third piece.
Speaker 3 (13:52):
We're at a party with all their friends and cheated
in front of everybody.
Speaker 2 (13:55):
Yeah, inside a bathroom elect we're in backyard.
Speaker 5 (13:59):
Yeah, makes it kind of naughty and fun, But is it?
I mean, at this point, do we need to be
more direct and like start asking for a name?
Speaker 4 (14:05):
I really think we just go who is this?
Speaker 6 (14:08):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (14:08):
I mean I mean something like that. But it's a
little on the edge because you still are risking offending
them by saying I don't remember your name.
Speaker 3 (14:15):
They're talking about round two of a party then, right,
they're not talking about hooking up. They're just saying run
it back.
Speaker 6 (14:19):
Like, run it back is fine, but round two means
something else to me.
Speaker 2 (14:24):
Maybe they just need round two, like drinking. Yeah, maybe
they did it. Maybe this isn't a person you made
out with at all.
Speaker 4 (14:31):
This could be one of your like anybody, Yes.
Speaker 6 (14:35):
I've made out with a lot of people, so I
doubt it.
Speaker 5 (14:37):
Okay, Well, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (14:40):
I feel like this whole thing has just been some
humble brag to tell us everybody on the radio, how
many people you make out with at parties?
Speaker 5 (14:46):
Yeah, I am jealous for sure of you. Start's working,
but we still need to figure it this person out.
Would it be a good hint to ask, like, who
are you coming with to Alyssa's event? That give a
which particular friend to hang out with them?
Speaker 2 (15:01):
I like that, Jess.
Speaker 4 (15:02):
They could just say my wife's fun.
Speaker 5 (15:05):
Okay, Well that would give you a little bit of
a clue. Yeah, I mean that's the best idea we
have right now. How do you feel about texting it?
Speaker 6 (15:12):
I'm down. Let's go for it.
Speaker 1 (15:14):
Yeah, all right, this is the probably riskiest one we've
said for real.
Speaker 5 (15:18):
Let's see.
Speaker 1 (15:19):
Well, I mean I think it's going to give us
the most information. Yeah, probably just started with this to
be honest.
Speaker 5 (15:26):
Okay, he sent it, but yeah, at the time, we
didn't know that this person was also going to Alyssa's
house party, and it's someone that's in the tight social groups.
Speaker 2 (15:34):
Been in a house party in so long?
Speaker 1 (15:36):
I want to go to Alissa's hot You would be a.
Speaker 5 (15:40):
Good backyard girl.
Speaker 1 (15:41):
Oh dude, I could guarantee I made out with more
people than this guy.
Speaker 2 (15:52):
I love making out.
Speaker 6 (15:54):
I got an answer.
Speaker 5 (15:55):
Okay, are we any closer to knowing who this person is?
Speaker 2 (15:59):
You know?
Speaker 6 (16:01):
I mean not? Yeah, yes, I mean there's a nickname.
But that's as close as I can get.
Speaker 5 (16:07):
What does it say?
Speaker 6 (16:08):
It says if we play Angus and his girlfriend again,
let me shoot first, we'll dominate them.
Speaker 5 (16:15):
Beer pong play what or basketball?
Speaker 6 (16:18):
It's beer pong?
Speaker 2 (16:21):
Did you play beer pong with the girl that you
made out with?
Speaker 6 (16:24):
I didn't make out with her. We just played beer pong.
Speaker 5 (16:26):
Oh okay, so it sounds like it's not the backyard girl,
and it's not the bathroom girl. It's mystery girl number three,
beer pong.
Speaker 6 (16:34):
Girl, beer pong girl.
Speaker 2 (16:35):
Yeah, we didn't make out.
Speaker 6 (16:38):

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
