Aww, that's so nice. I'm gonna do that to my parents. Hey, if you ever need to borrow one of our cars, feel free to come by the station. We'll leave the keys for you right out there in the lobby. I'm gonna run it till E and then not fill it back up when they bring it back. Fill up Brooks Cardo, never run out of gas and hybrid. Or you know what, if you just need to borrow our ears for a confession. There we go. We can lend those to you too, right here on the masked speaker. Never empty. One of our listeners who's ready to fill our gas tanks up with his secrets. And he's chosen to go by Pat as his fake name today. So Pat, welcome to the show. Give us your gas. Hey guys, how are you? Pat sounds like a diesel man. You're on the green pump, bro. Lovin' what we're hearing. The voice changer is on, Pat. You are the masked speaker. Whenever you're ready, let's hear your confession. My voice is so distinct, guys. I appreciate it. Thank you. You're welcome. What's going on? 20 years ago, we did Spring Break in Jersey Shore, right? Okay. So let's say early 2000s Spring Break, Jersey Shore. We're there. You were with Snooki. You have so much hair, Jelena. We are so there. Exactly. So anywhere I'm near, we're like hanging out on the beach. I ended up meeting the most gorgeous girl ever. Of course you did. I can't believe you would remember her 20 years later. She's drunk. I cannot forget, guys, right? Really? We hit it off immediately. We spent like the entire day together. We had a better house. It was a nice little ranch. It was a nice little beach house. Okay. It ended up being her parents' place. I thought it was her place, but anyway, we just had a blast. We had a great time. You're partying in your 20s. It's not ever going to be her house on the beach. Yeah. I should have thought about that, but anyway, we wake up to noises in the driveway. Her parents are home. Run. Run. Exactly. She goes, oh my God, it's my parents. You got to crawl out the window. Oh. How did you know that? Brooke has forced a lot of men to crawl out of windows before. She can hear by the idling of the car, which car it is. Oh, for sure. That's my dad's truck. Get out of here. So did you get out in time? Well, of course I did. I did. Luckily, it was just a ranch house. It was only like one level, so I just hopped down. I went back to the hotel. My friends were there waiting for me. Oh yeah, walk of shame, baby. That's a walk of pride. Well, that doesn't sound like that bad of a confession. Yeah, why would you keep that secret? Well, the problem is I never got her phone number. At the time, it was like no Instagram, no social media and stuff. Oh yeah. So I wasn't really able to like keep in touch with her. So we just lost contact, but fast forward 15 years later. Actually, there's a sure, right? Another summer trip. And who do I run into? No way. Her parents. You really ran into her again? I really ran into her. Did she remember you? Oh my gosh, yes. I walked up to her. She's just looking so beautiful. And yes, as soon as I walked up, she did remember me. Oh my gosh. This is tell me you're in love and you got married on a rainbow. You shouldn't keep this a secret. Sell this to a movie. I'm going to tell you a very tale love story out of the Jersey. No, it was really nice. But listen guys, I ran into her again, right? Right. It was the same thing. We hung out for the rest of the night. Again, she invited me back to her place. Same place? Actually in that area. So she explained the house. It was like a two story. I wasn't thinking we fell asleep. We had a great night, but we went to sleep. I think it's four o'clock in the morning. And she wakes me up panicking. Oh my God. Oh my God. Wake up. Wake up. She said my boyfriend, he's home. Oh my God. Oh no. Well, I'll go to my assigned window at this point. Oh my God. What did you do? I bet you were heartbroken. Oh my God. She yells to me, get in the closet. Oh wait, what? She wants you to hide? What, for hours? Yeah, that's fine. She's not thinking. But of course I did. I don't know the guy. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So I jump into the closet where I'm just like frantically like getting dressed, putting my clothes on itself. Oh my God. I hear the boyfriend come in the room. He gets in the bed that I was just like, yeah. Oh my God. It's still warm. It's still warm from your body. Thanks for warming it up for me, honey. Dude. They're laying there talking and giggling and kissing and they both fall asleep. How can people do that? I don't understand. No, that's not it. I myself fall asleep in the closet. Oh, that's far in the morning. That's right. So I fall asleep in the dark closet. Oh, I hope you have a sore. I never think about that happening. And then she wakes me up out of the closet telling me he's in the bathroom. He's in the bathroom. So go ahead, jump out the window. Yep, now's your time. Why can't you leave out the door? Well, that would have been a great idea, but it was easier to go out the window. Did you jump out the window of a second floor? So yes, I do. Oh, no. Are you okay? Did you break anything? 15 years later, how was the fall? I'm okay, but I did have to drop down a floor and a half. Yeah. And I hit the window, air conditioning unit on the way down. Oh, no. Yeah, frightened my ankle. I had to lift back to the damn hotel. Man. And then anyway, that was like the last time I seen her. I haven't spoken to her since. Oh, man. What a terrible end to what we thought was going to be a love story. I am just disappointed for you. Well, hold on. Did you go back to the Jersey Shore one more time? They're not the choice. No, I will not. I'm worried honestly if I ever go back to the Jersey Shore again, the next situation would be even worse. Yeah, you got out twice, man. And she keeps adding floors every time you see her. So it just gets more dangerous. Exactly. I don't want to know what comes out the floor too, right? Oh, dude. Oh, sad. Thanks for that story.
