Hey, it's Brig and Jeffrey, and we've got a brand new second date podcast for you today. The guy, I mean, we always talk about often in these how they're not putting in enough effort these days. This man showed up an hour early to his date just to make sure he was prepared. Yeah. And it still didn't work out. So where does that leave us? I guess we're going to find out here in just a second. But first comments. H said, I love listening to this podcast. I almost finished studying sciences at college and I'm going to uni in a few months to study optometry. You guys have helped me get through hours of revision and other boring tasks like cleaning my room. I hope you guys never stop. Good for you. I love a good optometrist. You could study Brooks's eyes. Yes, big glasses. Oh, yeah. All right, here it is, your brand new second day podcast right now. Broken Jeffrey in the morning. Second date update. Experts say with all the competition nowadays on the dating apps, your first line has to be airtight. Oh, you might not get a second chance. And that's why our listener, Jameson, says he came up with his own strategic approach and apparently he was successful, at least for the moment. Well, I mean, he's on the phone with us, so we always judge that. I do wonder if the line would work on us. So Jameson, welcome to the show. Hey, guys, glad to be here. Jameson, Jeffrey wants you to use a line on him. Just your voice alone is working. Honestly, audio message to her. You have a great voice, Jameson. I appreciate it. Thank you. OK, so are we getting straight to the line? I don't know. I just want Jameson to talk. Why are you blushing? I don't know. Quiet and whispery. What's up? You said you met a girl on the dating apps. What's her name? Yes, her name is Val. All right. And what was your strategic approach that you used? So my opening line was I've been searching for you. That's OK. I was expecting a little more. I'm going to say I didn't leave a voice note of that. It's like the whisper voice with the searching is. I take it back. Yeah. So she responded to that. Yes, she was very confused, but she was like, what do you mean? And I responded. You're Val Hala. I've been searching for you. Val Hala, like the Viking after world. Yes, the Nordic heaven. Wow. Wow. Did she get your. Did you get your Viking joke? She ended up sending an eye roll emoji. She's heard it before. She still wanted to talk after that. So. OK. Sometimes and no one's going to agree with me on this, but someone in the world will jokes are so bad, they're good. Yeah, no, I don't think it got through still. Dude, everyone that listens to this show, how should we say that? Good point. I mean, yeah, it must have worked if you're able to get a date with her, because I'm assuming that's where your story is going. Yeah, so we talked for a little while. We kind of matched interest. And so one thing led to another and we ended up going on a date to a farmer's market, actually. Oh, wow. Not quite the after world, is it? I guess it'll do. But it worked, man. Yeah, it did work. How was the farmer's market? That's always a cute date, stuff to look at, stuff to talk about. Yeah. So I actually went to the farmer's market roughly an hour early. Whoa. Because I wanted to familiarize myself with the vendors and whatnot. So I went around, had a few conversations being myself familiar. You pre-funded a farmer's market. So you could be a tour guide to her? Yeah, I mean, it's a good idea for me. You know, that is kind of sweet to be like, hey, if you like strawberries, I know exactly where they are. You're going to love this. Yeah. This would be Jose's alley. Listen, this honey comes from a special group of bees that only feast on clovers. Also, I kind of wanted to make myself look like a big shot. So when we were walking around, you know, people would know me. I get a little recognition. Oh, you support local weekly when you don't. No. What's up, Jameson? Yeah, I'm like, oh, I met you like an hour ago. Yeah. Was she impressed? It only happened once, but you know, it did happen. OK. That one time must have felt good. Dude, you know, I won't lie. I kind of felt like I owned the place a little bit that day. So yeah, everybody knows you. It's cute. Big shot at the farmer's market. You run in the farmer's market. That's super cool. So it's not a flex for you. Well, I'd love to hear like, did you and Val connect over stuff or were you just going around showing off how cool you were? I bought her an iced coffee and then we kind of just talked about stuff after that. OK, what did you guys connect over? Some of our interest books, TV shows, some of the art we saw at the farmer's market. We both like food. You eat me too. You like markets? Yep, you like farmers? Yeah. Yeah. Wow, let's get married. We're giving you a really hard time, James. It does. It sounds like a very sweet. It does. In a way, the fact that there are these crazy things happening is good. You're having kind of a normal date. Yeah, I mean, that sounds good now, but she's not calling me back or like returning my text, so I don't know what's up. Well, I mean, I'm sure Alexis is thinking what I am. She's intimidated by the king of the farmer. That's exactly where my head was at. So many would be. But was it like when you look back on the farmer's market, was there any moments that you think could have been seen as a red flag for her? Any like lulls in the date? You know, I kind of thought I may have spent more time speaking to the vendors than her. Oh, oh, did that backfire? Maybe. Yeah, I think it could have because vendors, they love to talk. Yeah. You know, I tried to get a little bit of a alone time with her at the end. So there was a bar across the street. We went over there, had a few mimosas, but it only lasted about 20 minutes before we had to go. Oh, OK. Well, that's I mean, I'm a mosa farmer's market. It's a cute day. It is. Yeah, I thought it was cute, but I guess she didn't. You know, when we left, I went in for a hug, but it kind of became awkward and left on weird energy, I guess. How is the hug awkward? They can be really bad sometimes. Yeah, I went in for a side hug. I guess she didn't really read that. So she tried to give me like a high five or something. One of those situations. OK. I hate leaving things like that. No, no, you couldn't even hug right. It was bad to leave on an awkward note. Yeah, it was weird. You know, our navel is kind of connected and but they also did. OK, actually it's sexier than I thought the way you described it. I was navel so unattractive. I don't like that. It's kind of hot, but. All right, the bottom line is Val is not calling you back. So let's go on an official search for Valhalla. See if we can bring her back to the Promised Land and reconnect her with Jameson. When we do your second date update right after this. Hold on, man. I appreciate it, guys. Thank you. We appreciate you. Hold on. Broken Jeffrey in the Morning Second Date Update. Welcome back to Broken Jeffrey in the Morning Second Date Update. So dramatic. As we embark on an epic journey searching for Valhalla. Well, that's really. I liked it. It's just it's Val, a woman that our listener Jameson went out with for a day at the farmer's market. Yeah. And now she's not calling him back. So we've decided to band together and take up his noble quest to say not tomorrow, not yesterday, but now. Yeah. Valhalla shall be ours or Jameson's. Or it's going to end with a Viking funeral. I don't know. Something will occur in the next few minutes. I promise you that. OK. All right. Maybe we need to cut the music. I'm sorry. You didn't sound into it. And I was kind of excited about it. I tried, guys. I did my best there. You were a good quest leader. Honestly, I don't know much about Viking lore, so I really should have watched more History Channel. Bottom line is we need to help Jameson get his girl. Yeah. There you go. How do you feel, Jameson? So I dressed up as a Viking for Halloween once five years ago. Hey, all right. The costume on. I appreciate. So I do it. We all appreciate the visual that you just gave us. Nice. That's going to inspire us to work even harder to get you to your goal. You sound good to me. OK. All right. You don't sound nervous at all, by the way. We're excited. Yeah. You don't sound anything. I don't know. I guess that's just my personality. Yeah, you are kind of soft spoken. Well, we like it. Yep. Like a true Viking. That's right. Very calm and collected. Yeah. All right. Let's board our boat and take our epic journey. We're going to call Val and see if she answers. Here we go. Hello. Hey, we're looking to speak with Val. This is Val. Hey, Val, this is a radio show. We're called Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Hey, Val. Hi. Hey, good morning, Val. How you doing? Um, is this real? This doesn't sound real. I don't I don't know what this is. It's not a dream. We don't sound real. Oh, we could be AI. Are you Jeff? No, I think it's the radio. Yeah, that's what I it sounds like. No, we're not. It'd be a little bit weird if AI was to call you out of the blue and ask about your life. Hey, we don't know what I do in the background these days. Yeah, I don't know what I do. OK, you and me, we're together. We don't trust that artificial intelligence. Let's go. I trust her. OK, there you go. She doesn't have the AI voice. Well, welcome to the show. Yeah, you wouldn't trust her if you were in the studio right now. Why? With her Michael J. Fox haircut. But that's that's a different story. I don't even know what that would look like. Dude, there's three people who can picture it right now that are laughing. And the AIs are the ones that don't have the imagination to picture it. So that's OK. Happening. That was a bad burn. That was. Now Jeff does sound like AI because he could have come up with a good joke. Boom, roasted. Joke landed moving on. So. Val, joke complete. Sorry, Val. Sorry, Val. Here's the thing. We're we're kind of a jokey, funny show. We like to have fun with each other, but we're really serious about one of our listeners, a guy named Jameson that you went out on a date with recently. Oh, OK. You know, Jameson. I do know him. I do remember him, but he. There really wasn't much to remember. It was like a pretty boring date, I would say. Oh, no, that's not what I thought. You're talking about the farmers market date. Yeah, like it just felt kind of an original and like like if people were music, he would be like elevator music. That was a good comparison. That's a good. Hold on. I mean, you know, I've yeah, let's leave the jokes to us. Now that was a little uncalled for. Maybe he shouldn't have put them imosas at the end of the day. Maybe he should have put them at the beginning and you wouldn't have had a different opinion. OK, Teen Wolf. Geez. Is that another hair joke? It's another Michael J. Fuck. Yeah, Michael J. Michael J. Fox was texted right now. This is so good. Can we start using someone from the last 10 years? Maybe he is or 30. Yeah, he's still doing his thing. There's a millennial crying in their car. Get back to Val, Jeff. OK, fair, fair enough. Why was it boring? He just like was boring. It's like the color gray. He was just millennial gray. Oh, oh, I don't even know. Like, I don't get why he is reaching out to you guys. I haven't been responding to him, so I don't really know why he isn't taking a hint. Well, he is understanding that you're distancing yourself. He just wasn't sure if there was a specific reason for it. And your reason seems to be that he was too boring for you. I mean, I have said that. I feel like that he's boring. OK, OK, listen, that's your take on the experience. And that's fine. We appreciate you being honest with us. So now it's our turn to be honest with you. This is exciting. This is usually the fun part of the call where we tell you that Jameson has actually been listening in on this call the entire time. Like a quiet little wallflower on the side of the room waiting to jump in. No, no, no, no, no. Yes, Jeff meant like a panther ready to attack like a Viking. Not in a scary way, but yes. I was just trying to make something more exciting. Totally. Jameson. Hey, Val, how's it going? There's that. Jameson, did you you heard what she said? Right. Yes, I heard all of it. OK, well, what do you think? She's saying things about you and your personality. Honestly, it's fine. I'm not for everybody. So it's whatever. That is such an emotionally mature response. I love that. Well, I'm glad. Honestly, Jameson, you heard everything because I feel like you weren't getting it when I wasn't responding to your text. So if this is how you needed to hear it, I'm glad. And maybe you'll find somebody else who's a different shade of gray for you. You know, you're still so mean. It's unwarranted. You know what? I'm glad I hear it now because I'm pretty sure the waitress at the bar. You went to won't think that. Yeah. Wait a minute. What does that mean? Exactly what you think, you know, once you left the bar, I stayed back a little bit and ended up talking to our waitress. And, you know, I got her number. So it's all good here. Wait, OK. I did not expect to hear that from you. Jameson, you really did that? Yeah, you know, we're not exclusive. So I figured why not expand my options, right? Oh, good on you. I guess he doesn't seem upset that this didn't work out. Yeah, no wonder. Which is fine because I mean, everybody seems happy then, right? Maybe, but suddenly Jameson isn't sounding quite as boring in Wallflower anymore. Oh, are you turned on, Jeff? Sounds like a man that takes charge and goes out and gets what he wants when he wants. All of a sudden, Jeff wants to go to a farmer's market. I'm going to enter this how Jameson is sounding. I'm into this. Sorry, this is Jeff. I'm the host of the show. Oh, no, no, no. What did you just say? I'm kind of into this side of Jameson, though. I didn't really know that he could snap back like that. I'm kind of into that vibe. I'm more into that vibe. You like when he challenges you? Now that I'm just hearing his voice with no farmer's market around, I feel like I'm not as distracted. Oh, the voice and the comeback. I'm kind of into this. I could be swayed. I could be swayed. Really? It sounds like you could be swayed pretty easily. Well, let me say you do some trouble. I'm not interested anymore. I think I'll be seeing that waitress. Oh, no way. What a power move. Is that true? You don't want to go out with her again? No, I'm good. Wow. Because he heard the truth. He heard her original reaction. Yeah, that's a thing. Val, you just blew it. You guys, I think he's joking because I just got a text message from him with a little heart emoji. Oh, really? Did you do that, Jameson? I don't text until. I don't text until. Oh, mysterious. Now I'm starting to think that the waitress thing is not true. For the purposes of this segment, we're going to pretend that it still is true. OK. Because I'm sensing there's interest from Val, we would offer to send you two out on another date if you're open to it. He said no, right? Well, I don't know. He said he's in a heart emoji. Where are you at, Jameson? Yes or no? I won't date her, but I'll break her off a little something. Oh, what an awful. OK, well, Val. It's up to you. Hey, I'm into it. So, yeah. Yeah. Oh, my. This guy's got so much. What the heck? I'm going on at the same time. You just turned an absolute no. He's the most boring guy in the world. And I am super into this. Give Millennial Gray a chance. Broken Jeffrey in the morning. Well, look at that, guys. We reached Valhalla and it's a lot different than I pictured it would be. Yeah, that was weird. He is not the person that I thought he was. No, I mean, you think you know somebody for four minutes and then they go and change on you. Well, maybe Vikings do talk soft, but carry a big stick. Kind of like Jameson. You guys think he played us like the market like he got on with us early before he talked to her and then sealed the deal. I don't know. He was good, though. Yeah, he was really good. We didn't even see it coming. He knew exactly what she wanted. He was able to fully turn things around in his favor by simply not caring and just being like whatever, which is why I don't even care if you find us on our podcast. You know, find us. Don't find us. Like us. Don't like us. We don't care. We don't cry at home. Yeah. No, if you go to broken Jeffrey's second date update and you say nice things, we probably won't even read it. We will. I always reply to them.
