Russell and Penelope first matched on Hinge last month and it only took them a week before they actually went on their first date. Russell tells us that he loved his conversation with Penelope and her smile and that they went to a Nationals game for their first date. Russell shares that they even went on a second date where Penelope came over to his place and he cooked dinner for her. Russell thought things were going in the right direction, but ever since their second date he hasn’t heard from Penelope and isn’t sure what went wrong.
We call Penelope trying to figure out if there is anything else between her and Russell that happened that may have caused things to go wrong and she tells us that she wasn’t a fan of what Russell was commenting on random Instagram posts. Find out what’s really going on in this Second Date Update

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Second date update on Internshohn in your morning show. You're
trying to find your person, You're trying to find the
one you think you do and then they stopped talking
to you. We see exactly what's going on. Russell, good morning. Hey,
how's it going, guys? Good man. I'm gonna be honest.
I was reading the email on this talk with everybody
before we did this, and I'm a little bit perplexed
because it seems like you did everything perfect with Penelope
(00:24):
and uh not the usual kind of boring date. So
let's get into this. You and Penelope first met or
became aware of each other. How oh we master hinge? Okay?
And that was about a month ago? Yeah, okay. And
you say in your message here that you guys took
about a week getting to know each other talking on
the app and texting before we had our first date. Yes,
(00:46):
that's right, all right? And so what about Penelope made
her stand out to you?
Speaker 2 (00:52):
I thought she had a really beautiful smile. I thought
you'd some interesting proms on her hinge and then we
just thought a really good back and forth conversation.
Speaker 1 (00:58):
Okay. And how long you take us to go from
the app to exchanging phone numbers.
Speaker 2 (01:04):
We talked on the app for about a week and
set up our first date and then we exchanged phone numbers.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
Okay, first date was the Nats game. Yes, yeah, did
you guys do the nine nine nine challenge? Nine dogs,
nine beers, nine innings?
Speaker 2 (01:19):
No, we didn't, didn't play.
Speaker 1 (01:20):
Make it to that, that'd be first thought. Okay. So
we go to the game. No kiss in the first
eight or was there a kiss?
Speaker 3 (01:29):
No?
Speaker 1 (01:29):
No kiss on the first okay. But then second day
and this is I was like, oh my god, this
guy has got the moves. Here. She comes to your place,
You make her dinner. Yeah, I came over. I cooked
the dinner.
Speaker 3 (01:39):
We watched the movie That's Nice, had our first kissy, John,
what do you say it like that?
Speaker 1 (01:44):
We did kiss, nothing more okay. And then she didn't
stay over, she went back home. But you guys left
it at i'll see you again this coming week. And
that was about a week and a half ago, fair,
yeah okay. And so sid then no response here, texts,
no calls. She's still following you on on the ground,
but like there's been no nothing. Yeah, I haven't heard
(02:08):
from her at all. That to me just odds. I
feel like guys get so many brownie points for making
the meal for sure, and like, I'm assuming you're decent cook.
Speaker 4 (02:18):
Yeah, I think pretty good.
Speaker 2 (02:19):
She seemed to enjoy it.
Speaker 3 (02:20):
Okay, you'd have to be somebody over to cook for Yeah, yeah,
I clean.
Speaker 1 (02:25):
It wasn't like yeah ask yeah like nothing that would
be like a red flag in your house. Nothing I
can like go.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
I think it's a pretty pretty nice apartment.
Speaker 1 (02:34):
Okay, So before we call her, just to kind of
paint a picture, how long have you been single? How
long has she been single?
Speaker 2 (02:43):
I've been single for a little under a year, and
as far as she told me, she's been single about
six or seven months.
Speaker 1 (02:48):
Okay, because I'm gonna be honest, I miss I'm miss confused,
like sounds like yeah, that's kind of the Okay, so
let's let's call her, get around and get her side
on one. What'd you make?
Speaker 2 (03:02):
By the way, I made some.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
Nice I can't cook at all. Hello, I calling for
Penelope please, Hey girl, it's intern John. I got Sauce
and Rose here as well. Can I talk to you
on the air real quick about something something bad to
see a couple of months of your time?
Speaker 4 (03:29):
Sure?
Speaker 1 (03:30):
Perfect, we're doing a second date update. I got something
on the line here, Russell, if you want to say hello,
nailed that and so Penelope, we're here because Russell told
this kind of the background of you two love birds
that you guys mashed on a hinge about month ago,
talked in the app for about a week. First date,
went to a Nats game. Second date, he made you
shrimp scampy at his place. But he's not her for
(03:51):
you in about a week and a half. So we're
just trying to get your side things, I guess because
it sounds like he did a pretty good job and
there in the wooing, but you're not retraining the wu
so to speak.
Speaker 4 (04:04):
Yeah, so we did have a good time, but I'm
also I'm at that stage in my life where I'm
like looking at the whole picture and you know, we
had fun at the Nats game and I'm I'm a
big sports girl, so he definitely like scored points there. Sure,
you know, we didn't do the seven seven seven challenge.
We did the two two two's challenge, which is you know,
good with me. I'm not like a huge drinker, so
(04:27):
that was that was all good. You know, we did
do a second date. I he was pretty good cook right, yeah,
like he said Trent Scampy, I was impressed, right, thes
was good. Right, So like all things checked, like you know,
face to face, but you know, we follow each other
on Instagram and like you know, I'm a girl, I
(04:49):
do deep dives, right. I look at who they're following
and like see what's going on? And I noticed he's
like leading comments on like different celebrities pages. Okay, uh yeah,
it just it just it totally gave me to.
Speaker 1 (05:04):
Eck, what kind of comments?
Speaker 4 (05:06):
Oh, like dou a lipa, like you put the fire emoji.
It's like, what are we doing in your engagement posts?
Speaker 1 (05:14):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (05:15):
Okay, I mean it's like it's too much for me.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
And so you saw that and that was just kind
of like an ick where it's like you can't you
can't overlook that to yeah.
Speaker 4 (05:26):
Totally, Like I mean, I just like it's like what
are we focused on here? Like are we like cloud chasing?
Are we like interested that he knows this? But like
that I don't. I don't think Alipa is going to
comment on that.
Speaker 5 (05:36):
Like okay, I mean business people I'm a fan of,
and I think I'm allowed to like, Look, if we're
not in a relationship or anything, is that something that
you have an issue with.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
I'm happy to talk about that if anything were.
Speaker 1 (05:51):
To move forward. Okay, let me do this. I'm gonna
put you guys in hold. Are you team Russell or
team Penelope? Eight seven seven nine nine four six eight
one to call nine ninety three three eight to text,
it's second date update on intern John your Morning show.
Second date update on intern John and your Morning Show.
We just talked to Russell and Penelope. They first matched
(06:13):
on hinge about a month ago. Uh took town know
each other, went to a Nats game, he made her dinner.
She's stopped talking to him. She said, it's because she
noticed he I guess why follow each other on Instagram?
You can see your mutual follows and stuff. He was
leaving emojis and comments under various celebrities instagrams. She got
the egg eight seven seven nine nine five four six
(06:34):
state one to call nine nine three three eight to text,
We're putting you on hold. Sauce. Let's just say you
met some guy who's a hot piece of man meat.
Everything checks out, lead to dinner, You follow him and
then see he's leaving fire emojis under dual lileapas Instagram.
Is that nick uh?
Speaker 3 (06:49):
I mean, I don't, Okay, I'll be honest, I don't
follow very many celebrities, so I think that it's like
it seems like she's also involved with the celebrities. She's like,
I think that could be something you've boned over. Honestly,
I'm on his side just because I think it's like
kind of a petty reason to not see someone again,
especially after they bring you to their home, they cook
for you, you say that you had a good time
(07:09):
and everything it seems like you both did, and then
you just kind of you basically ghost them over something
on Instagram.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
I would also do Elipe as one of the most
attractive human beings in history, and she I don't think
she's interested.
Speaker 3 (07:20):
She also just came out that she she just like
told us that she's engaged, So maybe that's why.
Speaker 1 (07:25):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (07:26):
I think it's a little silly to me. I think
it's actually really silly, especially because for some people that
you follow, I think that you see their comments a lot.
I don't know how it really works, but if you're
scrolling through, you'll see maybe one comment on but if
you click on the actual picture for that celebrity, then
you'll see more comments. So I think that's what she
must have done. I'm assuming if they just follow each other.
(07:46):
So it seems like she's pretty involved with slubs too,
So I don't think it's that big of a deal.
Speaker 1 (07:49):
Yes, girl, let me give an elegant city Jennifer, good
morning morning. Well do you want to say a second day?
Speaker 2 (07:58):
I feel like I want more, on said, I don't know.
Speaker 4 (08:00):
I feel like it's harmless.
Speaker 1 (08:02):
It's it's dorky. I guess you know it's a little dorky.
Speaker 6 (08:06):
Yeah, but it's to me, it seems harmless, Like I
don't know.
Speaker 1 (08:08):
I feel like if he's gonna do.
Speaker 6 (08:10):
Already such a good job with these first two dates,
and like they had the chemistry there, like and he
even said that he was willing to stop doing that,
it just made her uncomfortable if they kept dating.
Speaker 3 (08:20):
I feel like the guy should get.
Speaker 6 (08:22):
A second chance. I don't think that's great. There's so
many it's rare to find a good guy, and he
seems like he is one.
Speaker 1 (08:28):
It seems silly to you know that to.
Speaker 6 (08:32):
The curve because it's something so just like a dorky
little thing he does.
Speaker 2 (08:35):
On the side.
Speaker 1 (08:36):
Yeah, I guess it'd be different if, like they were dating.
She said, hey, this makes it feel uncomfortable, and then
he kept doing it. Yeah that kind of Yeah, Okay,
I don't.
Speaker 6 (08:45):
Think exactly, but he made it clear that he'd stop
doing that if they were dating, So I don't know.
Speaker 1 (08:49):
I think that he should get a second chance he'd
be willing to give. Jennifer, thank you for listening, have
a great day.
Speaker 6 (08:55):
Yeah, thank you too.
Speaker 1 (08:57):
Let's go in, Laurel Tracy, good morning, Good morning. What
do you want to say this girl?
Speaker 6 (09:03):
I think I'm more so on his side. If that
gave her an ick, that seems like a minor thing
to give you an ick, and that she should have
talked to him about it, because it seems just kind
of a silly reason if everything else about the date
went well, that's a really bad reason to just totally
give up.
Speaker 1 (09:20):
Yeah, yeah, I don't disagree. I go back to Tracy, like,
no offense to Russell? What shot? Does he have a
dual LIPA? Yeah, this isn't like a random girl. She's engaged.
He's superstar and has followers and yeah, that kind of
a vibe. Tracy, thank you for listening to a great day.
You too, by if you wind you a second update.
