FULL SHOW: Proposal Rejection Awkward Call, Talk Like a Caveman + Karen Revenge Plan (4/2/26)

Hey, it's Brick and Jeffrey in the morning. Brand new full hour for you with a brand new awkward Thursday phone call. Dude, a guy who has proposed three times and is not giving up yet. No, he's not. Dude, you gotta stick around for this one. Brand new TikTok, lots of fun ahead, but first comments. Amanda said, Jake is so adorable. I love his shot caller questions. He has a great singing voice and he's so cute when he laughs. He has definitely joined my one day meat list. That's cute. Get in line. I think Jake's the funniest person on the whole show. Yeah, in my opinion. I think he's the tallest person on the whole show. Oh, sure, that's for sure. When Jake laughs at your jokes, you know you made it. Yeah, that's true. I feel good now. That's true, that's true. All right, here it is. A brand new full hour starts right now. Here comes Peter. Hey, since we're getting close, let's get some Easter candy stats. Oh, okay. It's a broken Jeffrey in the morning. So right now, the average Easter basket has about a 20% chance of including peeps. Oh. See, Ty, it's for the aesthetic. It's a decor. I will say I'm with you on that one. Yeah. It's the look of it, not the flavor. It brightens the basket. Also, you have to remind kids not everything's gonna be great all the time. That's right. Teach them early. That's what I always said. Just figure out what chemicals taste like. Yeah, and in fact, West Virginia is the peeps capital of the US with a 35% chance of getting peeped on. Dude. I could believe the amount of flavors. Oh, if they had at the store, there was wild. Meanwhile, kids in Arkansas and Montana least likely to get peeps. Okay. But hold on, so this isn't Easter candy. This is all just peep trivia. Oh. Okay, we have to switch this up. All right, let's do, can anyone tell me which Easter candy dominates baskets with a 65% probability you're gonna get one? Broke, tell him. Jelly beans? Oh, I thought it was. Actually, no, this is the first year jelly beans and chocolate bunnies are not in the top five. Oh. Cadbury eggs? Yeah, that's good. Cadbury cream eggs are number five. Okay. I can say Reese's. Be specific. Reese's eggs. Reese's eggs are number one. 65% chance. It's always in Portello. Number two is Reese's peanut butter cups, just the normal ones. Oh, they both make a list. I got a Reese's carrot this year. They made carrot shaped ones. I've never seen a carrot. Every holiday, just peanut butter and chocolate. Yeah. It's becoming that way. Three is Cadbury chocolate mini eggs. Oh, those are so much better than the big eggs. Number four is Hershey's milk chocolate. So all the Christian children are loading up on five different kinds of chocolate. Meanwhile, the Jewish kids, we get unsalted matzah crackers. Once again, number one every year, no choice. There better not be any salt on those crackers. It's so dry. You could have the peeps from my basket, Jeff. Yeah, there you go. Wow, it's some childhood fun and fair. Let's get to a game that's full of those things. The shock collar question of the day. Jake, I have no words. His mouth is full of those crackers. Saltless crackers, go for it. Yeah, I've got some. You know, Easter is just days away, which means families all across the country are preparing for the most logical holiday of the year. Where a giant vest-wearing bunny breaks into your home, hides eggs, and bribes your children with mountains of candy. That's completely and totally normal. It's a day filled with chocolates and pastel colors and epic backyard treasure hunts. And that's why today we're celebrating the numbers behind Easter, the stats, the facts, and the hippity hoppity truth during a special no-bunny business edition of Plenty of 20. You'll say number one through 20. I'll give you an Easter stat. It could be about foods, traditions, dyed eggs. You just have to tell me, is the real number higher or lower? Okay, you have 50-50 chance on each of these. Speaking of wonky dye jobs, let's start with Alexis. This is so rude. Seven. Number seven. Should adults be allowed to get it on Easter egg hunts? A recent poll found that over or under 50% of adults would love to compete in an Easter egg hunt this year. I mean, well, I'm 100% in, so it's hard for me to say, but we were just talking about the other day, all the adult ones, and I saw a bunch of listeners text in that they've been doing adult ones. There's adult ones, like just adults? That's what they said, yeah. Like after dark, like swearing and everything? Like shots, I've heard of ones with shots. It's after dark, you go to a park with flashlights. Yeah. I've seen multiple like events. You should be put on a list if you go to that. No, in hopes it becomes a bigger thing I'm saying over. Alexis says more than 50%? Yeah, 57%. Oh wow. Look at the popular events. I mean, I'll go. Yeah. So, all right, Alexis got hers right. Let's go to Brooke. Let's go eight. Over the years, the most common Easter basket has been chocolate bunnies up until this year, but how do you eat one? 77% start with the ears. You need to tell me if over or under 5% start with eating the butt. Five. What a question. Why are you blushing, Brooke? It's a simple question. I think Jeffy's the fever. Oh, man. Who would go, who would do that? We're gonna learn a lot about Brooke from how she answers this question. It would just be too ridiculous. I think it's gotta be under. Brooke says under 5%. What? It's 2026, Brooke. 6% of people start with the butt. Who looks? We love to eat it from the back. 16% start with the feet. Oh my God. I'm proud of us. I'm gonna start with the belly. Who starts with the face? That feels a little killer. Oh, that feels wide. That's where I start. Right on the nose. Don't wanna get looking at me the rest of the time. Jose, seven and eight are off the board. It's your turn. Let's go number 12. Egg hunts are only our second favorite Easter tradition. Spending time with family is number one. Oh. Yeah, exactly. Easter brunch or Easter dinner is third. Over or under 50% of Americans will also die Easter eggs this year. Over or under half? Well, when I was a kid, we used to always do it. Like I looked forward to it. But that's a thing. I mean, nothing forever. It has to be families with kids. Like people without kids or grown kids or... If adults are hunting, then adults can die their own eggs, I think. Yeah, but I don't feel it, Jake. I think this is gonna be under. Really? Under 50% is what Jose said. Oh, wow. It's over 53% of Americans will die Easter eggs this year. I'm glad to be wrong. That's cute. You gotta put those eggs to use. All right. Alexis has gotten hers right. Brooke and Jose got both of theirs wrong. Jeffrey. I'll take number five. Oh, okay. I was just gonna say hello. I didn't do it. No small talk, all right. Just go right for the feet or the butt. Jeffrey, what do you prefer in a chocolate egg? 41% said solid chocolate. 36% said some type of filling like caramel. And over or under 20% say they prefer hollow chocolate eggs. Ooh, the eggs. Hmm. I mean, I don't think it's caramel. That's just too much of a sticky situation to have to deal with in your mouth. Ooh, see, I like the caramel Cadbury the most. Yeah, me too. I know you like stickiness in your mouth. Yeah. That's funny. I think the hollow eggs is kind of a fun idea because then once you bite it open, you could fill it with stuff. What? Yeah, they have some. You fill it on your own. Yeah, you could put some milk in there. Or some vodka. Salami? Vodka and chocolate. That's terrible. Very tiny bees. You're the ones who want the adult Easter egg. So I don't think it's weird. I think, and chocolate, if it's chocolate on chocolate, it's too thick. I'm gonna say over. All right. That's correct, Jeffrey. 23% and that brings us to an Easter tie breaker. Alexis, we're going to you. If you get this right, you'll be safe. If you get it wrong, Jeffrey's gonna win. Okay. Easter greeting cards are a big deal. If you couldn't find one you liked, it's probably on you. Hallmark has over or under 300 different Easter cards this year. 300? Dang, just for Easter. Are people giving Easter cards? I thought the basket's enough. You know? I never received an Easter card. I guess for my grandma. I get a card with the basket. Yeah. 300 is crazy though. I'm gonna go under. That's wild. Alexis says under 300 Easter cards. Okay. Yeah. 273, very close. Wow. What? That's probably the option. That means Alexis has won today's edition of Balenci of 20. So Alexis gets to choose who gets shocked. They're gonna be singing the song from Willy Wonka, Pure Imagination. Who's it gonna be? I know, Brooke loves Timothy Shalman, the new Willy Wonka. So let's go her. I hate Timothy in that movie. Come with me. And you'll be in a world of pure imagination. Take a look. That was so creepy. That was your shock collar question of the day. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Every villain has an origin story. Yeah, true. I mean, take Brooke for example. What? She wasn't always evil. I'm not evil now. Until one day when she forgot her glasses at home. Oh. And ran over a goodwill donation bin. And did not stop. And from there on out, she's always taken their clothes. Little midnight grabbin' goes with her son, Alder. She got a t-shirt. Stealing donation clothes, Jeff. No, you're not. Alder is. Well, you hold his ankles as he climbs into the tiny hole and grabs as much as he can. Get that other shoe, honey. Well, the woman on the phone today says the moment that she decided to become the bad guy happened while she was waiting in a McDonald's drive-thru. Oh no. One strange encounter made her realize it was time to ruin a stranger's day. Whoa. You're gonna hear what she did in a brand new mass speaker coming up right now. You don't know me. Confession I can't take back. I am. The last speaker. Text to 78592 says, I'm 32 years old and only just now realized the do not operate heavy machinery warning includes cars. I thought it just meant like forklifts and bulldozers and stuff. Okay. That is like. I am scared. That's the first thing you're supposed to think of. All the times you've been on the road. But I could fly an airplane, right? Moped's are fine. Yeah. I'm not gonna lie. I thought the same thing. What? I do think forklift. I'm like, I don't own a tractor. So I'm good. What? Well. They're just warning farmers out there. Yeah. I just never thought about that. Don't get on the backhoe today, all right? Good news is we don't have any safety warnings here on the mass speaker. We'll let you say whatever you want as long as it's a secret about yourself. We got a woman on the line who's ready to give us her own confession. She's chosen Donna as her fake identity. Donna, welcome to the show. Hi, thank you so much. Oh man. Good morning. I don't know if we should be operating this radio show. This was a risky move. But voice changer is on. You are the mass speaker. Whenever you're ready, let's hear your confession. Okay. Well, I've been debating whether or not I should even email you guys and tell you the story. Because I mean, I think it's really good, but it's also kind of bad. Oh. Right place. Good and bad. Okay. Are we gonna start with the bad or the good part? Well, it's kind of mixed in together, I guess. Okay, what happened? So a little while ago, you know, I was leaving work and I just had this really long, really stressful day and I just couldn't wait to get out of there. And I was driving home and it's just super hungry. So kind of on spur of the moment, I decided I'm just gonna pull off and I'm gonna stop at a McDonald's just to grab some dinner. Treat yourself, okay. McDonald's is still fun when everyone agrees. Yeah, McDonald's, yeah, that's a great idea. Sometimes the mood just hits. Yeah. Okay. Exactly, I was just totally in the mood for it, but the line was pretty long. So obviously it wasn't the only one who had that idea, but I was committed. Like I'm gonna get my McDonald's. They're pretty quick there. They're known for fast food. So I think you'll be good. Maybe just wait five, 10 minutes. Yeah. Yeah, so I had to wait and I finally got up to the ordering box. And then I needed seconds to look over that huge menu because I haven't been there in a while. Oh, you don't know, you don't have it locked in your head. Girl, you're waiting. What were you doing? Like pull it up on your phone. They should have the menu like farther down the line, not just right in front of the place. No, down the street. But honestly, who doesn't order the same thing every time you go? Yeah, I know exactly my order. So I'm just scanning and scanning the menu and maybe it was taking a while, but the lady in the car right behind me, she starts like honking aggressively. Oh my gosh. Look, come on now. That's so rude. In a drive through line. I mean, you can't have slow food when you're in the line, right? It is true, but. Yeah, and then I can see her in my rear view mirror and she's like mouthing. I can see what she's saying. She's like, let's go, hurry up. Oh, hey. Overage people scare me too. Like I don't want to mess with that. I mean, look, I understand because I'm tired, I'm hungry too, but he actually does that like to a complete stranger in a McDonald's line. Now you're taking even longer because you're dating one to date with this woman. Exactly. So I quickly put my order in, as fast as I can, but now I'm really angry too. Oh yeah. Now your day just got worse. I can actually. The aggression has transferred via the air into your car. You know, I'm just getting more and more frustrated and angry the more I think about it. But then I had this moment of clarity and I knew exactly what I had to do. Oh, I feel like you're going to be one of those calm psycho people. Yeah. The way you said that has me a little concerned. She's like, I get the gas can out of the back of my head. Yeah. I already have it. I knew this ax would come in handy. No, what'd you do? Okay, so when I go to the first window where you pay, I told the cashier, like, oh, I'd like to pay for me and I'd also like to pay for the woman behind me. What? Wow. Oh, really? I'll kill them with kindness. That is a thing. When they go low, you go higher. Yeah. Very generous. Wow. It's exhausting, but it's the right way to do it. So I'd pay for both of our meals. Yeah. And then when I got up to the second window, they had my order ready. But then I showed them the receipt because I had the receipt for the order behind me too. And I told the guy, look, I put two separate orders in. And so then I took my food and I took her order too and I drove off. Oh my God. Girl, she's still gonna get a free meal out of this. But she's gonna have to wait like four minutes for that. I know, just the inconvenience of it. That's actually really funny. I was wondering, why would you pay for it? Exactly. So I took her order and I drove off and I felt so good in that moment. I was just like total adrenaline rush. And I was just laughing to myself, thinking about how confused that lady was gonna be when she got to a window. And I was like, your friend's not here. Oh, I bet she's still screaming at that poor McDonald's employee. Yeah, I was gonna say this boy's the one who has to suffer. But I did kind of speed home because I was kind of worried that she might follow me or something. So did you end up beating both orders? So I'm like, okay, well, just open her bag and see what's in there. Yeah. And then my heart kind of sinks because along with some other stuff, there was a kid's meal box in there. That's right. Oh, she had a kid on the car. Yeah, he stole a child's food. Maybe she was like, kid's meals, what's wrong with adults getting them still? Actually, no, her kid was probably the one that was like, honk at that lady. She's taking too long, I want my toy. That's good, Jeff. Let's demonize the child. Yeah, I bet it was a child's idea the whole time. I'm guessing you didn't keep the little toy in the Happy Meal as a reminder. Unless it was a good one. No, I did not. I felt so terrible to be honest. Yeah, but you did eat the kid's meal, right? Yeah. I actually gave it to my dog. My dog really liked it. How is that lower? Yeah, well. Diabolical, Donna. Here's some nuggets. All right, we're not gonna mess with you. That's for sure. The text in to 78592. If you have a confession you've been holding onto, we can hide your identity, mask your voice, and make you our next mass speaker. Got your phone staff coming up right after this. If you've ever heard our prank calls before, you know we love one thing. We love to troll scammers. Yeah, we do. Yeah, we're good at it. It's Brooklyn Jeffery in the morning. And the other day, Jose and our producer were in the studio after the show, and one of our multiple phone lines started ringing randomly. So we hit record, because we were in the market for new car insurance. It just so happened. I see. I got what luck. Let's hear how that went in your phone tap right now. Brooklyn Jeffery's phone tap on the 20s. Hello? Hi, Mark. Yes. Hello. Who's this? Hi. Good day to you. I'm calling on a recorded line from A-B-B-S Insurance. Wondering if you'd like a quote today to save you money on insurance. Ooh. Sorry, you said save money? On what? On your car insurance. What's that? It's for your auto insurance. Do you carry auto insurance like your car? I don't remember. I mean, how would I know? Why don't I do this? Yeah. Why don't I do this? I'm gonna transfer you right now to a licensed agent. Could you please stay on the line? Can you stay on the line okay? I'm sorry, what? Are you talking to me? Yes, Mark. Oh, the tone? It was like maybe you turned your head a little bit and there was someone next to you like at work, wherever you are at your insurance place. I'm still on the phone. You know that, right? Yes. Okay. So we're doing auto insurance and I can transfer you to an agent if you just stay on the line. Can you stay on the line? Mark, I'm going to transfer you now. Mark, are you still there? Is it okay for me to transfer you to a licensed agent? Yeah. Hi. What did you mean? Sorry. I'm going to transfer you now to a licensed agent regarding the auto insurance. So can you please stay on the line? Hello? Mark? Yeah? Can you please stay on the line while I transfer you? I just want to know if it's okay for me to transfer you. Can you just say yes or no? Yes or no? Which one? Mark, I'm asking you to let me know if it is okay for me to transfer you. I just need you to say yes or no. There's no way that's a butterfly. Mark, are you listening to me? There's no way a butterfly just flew in my room. Wow. Mark, I need you to focus for me, please. Okay, say it again. Is it okay for me to transfer you to a licensed agent? Have you talked to them? What do they think about it? Do they want to talk to me? Yes, the licensed agents would love to talk to you about your auto insurance, so I just need you to say yes or no that I can transfer you. I'm going to need time to think about it, I think. You need time to think about it if I'm going to transfer you? Just give me 30 seconds. Hello? Mark? Hello, Mark? Okay, I thought about it. And what you're asking me is kind of a loaded question. It's really not. If I transfer you, the licensed agent is going to help you save money on your car insurance. I don't know, sounds like I should talk to a lawyer or something. If you can talk to our licensed agent, I just need you to say yes or no. Oh, okay, now we're getting somewhere. So I need you to say yes or no if I can transfer you. Mark? Hello, Mark? Yeah, hi. Mark here. Unbelievable. Yeah, you can transfer me now, whenever you're ready. I just can't wait to be transferred. Hello? Hello? Broke and Jeffrey's phone taps on the 20s. Broke and Jeffrey in the morning. Is there anything more cringy than seeing a marriage proposal gone wrong? Oh my gosh. It's like you can't look away. No. As the guy drops down to a knee and then gets rejected and suddenly the vibe inside that Dave and Buster's is all messed up. Dang it. Now, imagine that humiliation happening not once, not twice, but three separate times to the same dude. Oh my gosh, Crinn. That's where one of our listeners is right now. Oh my gosh. He's not ready to give up just yet. He's seeking the type of advice that only we could provide in your brand new awkward Thursday phone call. Coming up next. It's awkward. It's Thursday. Thursday. Phone call. Broke, how many times did you make your husband propose before you finally said yes? Whoa. He just did it once. Oh, gave it up to him right away. I know. Yikes. I know, I've always been easy, Jeff. You know it. You know it. Oh my gosh, I was not expecting that. Well, according to chat GPT, who is the expert authority on this show, the most times a man should pop the question after getting rejected is once, maybe twice. My dad proposed, I think, like three times to my mom. They've been married almost 50 years. It looks different for everybody, clearly. But one of our listeners, Joe, needs help because he's already passed the one or two pop the question threshold. Hey, look at that. And he needs a little bit of advice. Joe, welcome to the show. Hey guys. Joe, you're in a scenario. Most people never would be in, brother. Yeah, that's okay though. You know, you're still together. That says something. Like sometimes when someone proposes and they say, no, it's like, oh my God, we shouldn't be together. The end of it, yeah. Yeah, we have a lot of advice to offer you before hearing anything about your story. Joe, wake up. We're pumping him up, Jeff. That's good. Well, let's hear about the relationship that you're in right now. Yeah, it's my girlfriend, Emma and I. We've been together for five years. Did you say her name was M, like the letter? M, M. Okay, sorry. Okay. I call her M sometimes. Sorry. That makes sense. Okay, well, we prefer only formal names on the show. So lock it up. So you've been with her, you said five years? Yeah, five years. We've done everything together. We've traveled to all kinds of places. We have a dog. We bought a condo together. Have you guys kissed? Dude, they bought a condo. Yeah, yeah. Okay. Yeah, we've kissed. All right, just covering all the. How does she, how does she feel about the idea of marriage? This is the thing. We have talked about, we both want to be married. Okay. So I take action. I go and I propose and she said no. Wait, why? Why did she say no? I mean, she's obviously in it with you for the long haul. Yeah, I don't know. I don't know because I've been proceeded to propose a couple more times. I've actually proposed three times in the last 18 months. Okay. Bro, what are you not getting? Like, I'm not. Where are you doing at? Like, how's it going down? I feel like we need the story behind what? Yeah. It's different places, different ways. Two of them I was in public. Oh, well. It was by a beautiful tree in the park. Okay. The worst one, if I can let you know. Yes, let's do the worst. Yay! That sounds fun. What happened? I paid for a firework. What? And you imagine, yes, let's get married and then a nice 15 minutes of fireworks, but she said no. And then we had to sit there and watch fireworks. You can't just after this, no? You guys cancel the firemines. I'll get a re-mine. Yeah, go home and just go to bed. Oh my God. That is so funny. I don't get why she doesn't tell you what's wrong. Does Emma say anything about it? Yes, she has told me she's fully ready once the universe lets her know that she's ready. Oh, this is out of your hands. She's ready. Is she really into astrology, like the planets aligning? No, no, I've never, I don't even know it. No. Well, what does she mean that the universe will let her know? She just tells me the universe will let us both know when it's the time. I even once proposed, I gave her a card that said, hey babe, the universe told me I should put a ring on it. That's cute. That's clever. And her response was, yeah, no, that's not it. Are we wondering if the universe is a person that we need to ask permission from? Yeah. Like my dad's name is universe. That's not a bad idea. Have you talked to her family? Maybe? Well, yeah, yeah, I actually did. I have asked her father for permission all three times. Oh, no, I don't like you having to be asked it every time. You went to her dad on three separate occasions to ask for her hand in marriage? No, buddy's now. He comes back, it happened again, brother. Oh my god. Yeah, he just kind of shrugs his shoulders each time and by the time he said, well, son, I'm surprised you are still with her. Oh. Oh. But he called you son. Yeah. Dude, that's so bizarre. So where are you at? Like, are you willing to be patient enough to wait for whatever this universe moment is? Do you even want to keep asking? Yeah. I kind of do. I mean, I get it. Most guys at this point would have said, forget it. I'm done. If the universe is not giving me a green light yet, then maybe we should separate. But she's making it very clear that she does not want to break up. And she's been happy and cheerful. Even when she says no, it wasn't like a down or no. It was like a positive, optimistic. She's like, no. Let's go back to dinner. Yeah, silly. So, OK, you're definitely in a weird position, but what made you reach out to our show for advice? What are you looking for? Looking for some advice on how do I even talk to her about that? I don't want to propose on your show or anything like that. You want to figure out what the universe, like, when you'll know. I would like to understand what is she looking for? Yeah. Help him unlock the key to her heart to say yes. Jeff, you should call her and say you're the universe calling. Oh, I like it. I like that, but unfortunately, this is an awkward Thursday phone call. And that means Joe is the one that's going to have to do the unlocking himself. Yeah, that's right. So we're going to come back and give you a little bit of advice to help you call your girlfriend of five years to figure out what sign from the universe is she looking for before she says yes to marriage. All right. It's kind of cute, honestly. It's a little crazy, but we're going to do it. Awkward Thursday, right after this. Hold on. It's awkward. It's Thursday. It's awkward. Thursday. Phone call. You got to feel for our listener, Joe. And here's a guy who's been in love with a girl for five years. Aw, they're so cute together. And he desperately wants to marry her. She said no three times to his proposals. But in a happy way. Like a not yet. With a big smile. Yes. Absolutely not. Yeah. And made it clear she doesn't want to break up. She does want to get married. It's just the universe hasn't told her that it's right yet. Whatever that means. Even Joe isn't sure. That's why he's hoping to get some clarity here with us today during this awkward Thursday phone call and find out what exactly is his girlfriend waiting for. What is Joe doing wrong? What's not aligning for Emma to say yes to his proposal? So Brooke, what's your advice? I think you give up on the universe, Joe. Oh. I don't think you wait around for any universal sign. I think you tell Emma, listen, I got a three ask limit. I did my part. You understand the universe better than I am. You do the asking now. It's up to Emma now to propose. Wow. Give up your man card, Joe. What do you say? It's not a man card thing. Yeah. That's better than just giving up altogether. Yeah. I mean, yes. It makes your life easier, right? Like you don't have to plan anything. You don't have to worry. You don't have to spend any more money. It's all up to Emma. You don't think it'll look like I'm giving up and then that'll make her give up? No. I think you're saying like I don't get the universe. You do. It's just one piece of advice. You can use it or not use it. Jose, what do you think? Well, you said you're OK waiting and proposing again, but that may not be the right move for you, man. You need to give her a soft ultimatum. Oh. Uh-oh. That way, she's like, oh, I'm going to lose him. The universe may speak to her. Yeah, it may speed up her timeline if we're going to say yes. Oh, I just got a text. The universe said it's time. What do you think, Joe? I do want this to happen sooner than later. It's getting a little expensive. Too many fireworks shows. Kind of don't want to have to meet with her dad. Joe, you don't have to meet with her dad anyway. Maybe I should bring her dad with me. No. No, that's not. Does have her dad do it for you? Like, hey, Joe would like to propose. Will you finally say yes? That's his game word. We are officially cutting off the advice. Yeah. And we're just going to dial your girlfriend and see if she answers. You got this, Joe. You're going to find out what the universe wants from you. Thank you. OK. Here we go. I'm going to dial her number right now. Let you make your awkward Thursday phone call. Let's do it. Hello. Hey, baby. Oh, hi. I didn't recognize the number. Hi. What's up, Momar? How you doing, Boobie? I'm doing it in your head. How are you? What you doing? Remind me later. Before you come home, I can't on sale at the supermarket if you can grab some. Some what? Some pumpkin? No, the ice cream that you like, that cherry chip ice cream that you like. I just noticed it was on sale. If you want to grab some on your way home. Oh, yeah. I'll get some. OK. What's up, Booboo? I'm just thinking about us and our love and all of these proposals. And let's talk about it. Or how about we don't? If we don't talk about it, then I'll just be thinking about it all day. I was thinking about the universe. How me and the universe, I don't know how to talk to the universe. Booboo, how many times have I told you you don't talk to the universe? You listen to it. You wait. Yeah. Yeah, well, I haven't heard it. And I was just. I know you're confused. And I know I said this to you before, but you have to trust that the universe is going to reveal it. And it's time. It's you. We just have to wait for it coming. Baby, I have been patient. And I've been listening. I don't know exactly what you're looking for. And I'm not. I'm at a point where I don't know if it's worth it that we continue what we want. Wait a second. What are we questioning here? There's none of that. You know, and I know that we're meant to be together. You know, I love you. You know, I want to be with you. I just have to understand I've had this thing. And I just I need to follow it through. What thing? The universe thing? Or I'm confused. If you what thing? Yeah, well, yeah, if I feel like if I tell you, then it's going to ruin it. It's not that it won't be the point. Well, I just need to help. I feel like I'm at my end. I just need a clear path. Oh, no, you see, it's not like that even. It's just it's just it's just. OK, when I was 12, I made a pact. And the path was I want to sign from the universe that the man I marry is the right one. And so what you haven't gotten the sign yet? The thing is the sign it needs to come from you. I baby, I'm very. Oh, yeah, fireworks. We had cheese. I could I know. I know. That's not the sign. Light up. That's not the sign. What kind of what do you mean, baby? It's a word. OK. So it's a word that is only between the universe and I. Just we know. And the thing is, it is the time that we've been together so far. You've not said it. Oh, my. The only reason that you said no to all of my proposals is because I haven't said the magic word that you came up with when you were 12. Oh, my God. Hello. Oh, wow. There's a password. I guess. I guess. Yeah. Hello. Hello, Emma. Hello. What's the word? Awkward. Maybe the word was awkward. Maybe. But this is a radio show. We're called Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Oh, welcome to it. Hi. Joe, what did you do? Oh, goodness. Hey, I was looking for help and they're just going to help help us figure it out. Right, guys? It is kind of fun to leave you hanging a little bit, Joe, but I think we should spend the next five minutes just saying words and seeing if we could get it. What do you guys think a 12 year old came up with? A 12 year old. Is it a person, place or thing? Yeah, can we give us guesses? We're good at games. Look, guys, I know you're all trying to help and I understand that he's frustrated. Yeah, he is. But Joe, the universe will give you the word when the time is right. You just have to work. Can I just guess? Hardbark. Such a maze. Ambulance. Yeah, we don't have enough time for that, Joe. And remember, she was 12 when she made the pact. So you have to think of words that 12 year old girls would like. That's what I was thinking. Baby, I don't know that many words. Amma, you could be losing the most patient loving man, the person you're supposed to be with, because you're stuck on this thing that you made up when you were 12 years old. Can I say, baby, you're not losing me. I'm not losing you, but we might both end up in the Looney Ben. That's positive. All right, honey, baby, boo boo. We'll talk later over some ice cream. OK, I love you and I know that the word will come to you. You're not going to tell him? No, he is. That defeats the purpose of the whole game, Brooke. Dude, it's not a fun game. Yeah. So wait, is he going to like be talking to you like in the bathroom while you're brushing your teeth and he accidentally says the word and then you just break down in tears and say, yes, I will marry you? That's the question that are directed to the universe. I can't ask the universe questions. I'm only supposed to listen. Like, this is a very complicated relationship with the universe. Joe, I feel like we got a lot of clarity out of this phone call, but we are running out of time. At least you know that there is one word that you need to say to unlock a yes to your marriage proposal. Maybe start playing Scrabble together and it'll come up. You know, I'm going to pick up a dictionary and that's a source. We're going to page every morning to her. Joe, it's really good that you love her because I don't know that anybody else ever did. I'd be wrong the next word, though. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. I feel for Brooke right now because I can't get it out of my head. You could hear how badly she wants to know what the word is. Do it honestly. Well, people couldn't see this on the radio, but Brooke actually whipped out her checkbook and was prepared to write a large sum of money just to bribe the woman into finding out the magic word. Do you know how many listeners would be grateful if I were to do that? But Brooke held back, so I'm proud of you for that, Brooke. It is crazy, though, that they've been together for five years. They do everything, vacations and shopping and home ownership. And not once has he said the word that entire time. It has to be like unicorn or glitter. Yeah, those are too normal, too. I have a feeling he's just going to accidentally say it one night like in his sleep and she's going to like wake him up. Like, oh, my God, we're getting married. They're going to say during a fight. Oh, no. She's well great. Now you have to propose. There it is. Well, Brooke, if we come to learn that the word is moist, do you want to know or do you want to be kept in the dark on that one? I love the word moist. Oh, God. OK, it is not moist. It could be. You never know. Talking about cake, you guys. Yeah, sure. And we can, by the way, the word that we can do for you is help. We can help you with your personal life if you ever need it. I have to help. Yeah, we'll try. Can't promise much, but reach out to us and we can give you an awkward call whenever you need it. Go follow us online wherever you get your podcast. We're available at Brooke and Jeffrey. Whenever you hear someone imitate a caveman, yes, usually sounds something like me one steak, me one woman with no baggage. Good one. Well, guess what? Apparently that's not how they sounded at all. What? Really? And we have audio from a world renowned scientist teaching a young man how to speak like a Neanderthal. Is it going to be another accent that turns Alexis on? Most likely you have to hear it yourself. Plus a judge finds out a woman is driving during her virtual court appearance and he lets her have it. All of that is coming up in a brand new. We'll do it right now. You guys heard the latest trend for Easter? What? Apparently candy companies are finally filling those hollow chocolate bunnies. Not with more candy, but with a heaping glob of. Tick tock, click, shop. It gets everywhere. It's tick tock, click, shop where we discuss the biggest tick tock videos from the past week. We're going to get right to it with your first tick tock, click, shock from a Gen Zer named Ben Sanderson, who's living in New York right now. And his latest post has gone viral because it's all based off a new trend where Gen Zers are sharing the best public places during their lunch break to go take naps and cry. Oh, I want to know what's on it. This is for every generation, honestly. So Ben shared his secret spot and it got over one point one million views. Where's he going? The library? Let's listen. I needed a place in NYC to nap. So I looked up on Reddit, where to nap? And it was like all these things being like, there's one secret room in this library that if you go at these hours, the guards aren't there until I read the best idea ever, which I did. I went to the movie theater, paid $15 for a ticket and slept in the recliner seats during the movie, popped in my earbuds, put on my beanie, and I had one of the best naps of my life. Oh my God. Brilliant. Only if you go see a boring movie, you better not be going to see one with loud explosions and stuff. You don't want to see like the Avengers War movie. No. But otherwise, is that a good deal? 15 bucks for a movie theater nap in a recliner? You got the dark room, your earbuds in, and it's relatively quiet. Most of the time they have nap pods at the airport and they're like 40 bucks for like an hour to rip off. Yeah. So this is cheap and you have to buy a plane ticket to if you're leaving for two hours in the middle of your work day to go nap. Why wouldn't you just go home? Well, if you live super far away or if you know you only have an hour. Why was just helicopter back home? Take a nap in the comfort of your own bedroom. Brooks, why don't you just have your own personal nap room like I have? Yeah, exactly. These Gen Zers don't know how to do it. But the video got thousands of comments. One woman named Sydney said for $28 a month, you could get a nap subscription to an AMC theater. They do need to figure out a business model to help save their. This is smart. Another person said, just get free tickets to the Bill Maher show. That'll put you to sleep in seconds. I appreciate that joke. Even Bill Maher would appreciate that joke. That was a tip. Tick tock, click shock. You're next. Tick tock, click shock. It's a viral video from BBC. It got over five million views and it features a young man with a scientist who specializes in Neanderthals, aka cavemen. The researcher convinces this guy to make the noises that in her expertise, Neanderthals would have made back in their time. Oh, like grunts and scouts. I can't wait to hear this. Because you're always curious, like what would they have actually sounded like? She guides him through it. So here it is. Try male human voice count over three. One, two, three. Pitch up your voice. One, two, three. Add a bit of nasal now. One, two, three. Now, the other thing that would be happening, which would actually increase that quality is a very heavy skull that seems to pull down into the throat. Now speak. Now let's make a sound. Just let's make a huge R. Who was mating with that? It was majestic. No wonder they didn't live very long. They hurt each other and decided to all kill each other. Yeah, I think we should have gone back to primates at that point. Totally. So who knows if that's what Neanderthals really sounded like, but that's what this one scientist apparently believes. Dude, the dork of the group sounded like that. That was a TikTok click shock. You're next. TikTok click shock. Comes from an account named Mike and Kaelin. Normally they're posting videos of horses, but they interrupted their usual equestrian content because of what happened recently to them while in the drive-through line at a McDonald's. Oh. Now, apparently a previous customer had gone inside and stole a headset, and he was locked in a car nearby. So he was still on the same frequency and started trolling customers as they put their orders in. So let's listen. Sorry, someone stole one of our headsets and that trolling net. What do you want to eat? Don't listen to your male. Sorry about that. OK. Why don't you go wrong instead? I'm so sorry. Big arch meal with a medium fry. Anything else for your number? Big arch meal, you can hear it. Oh my gosh. And then can I get a tin-piece nugget? No. You can put it on that first, can I? Thank you, both of you. The no is the best. This is the kind of shenanigans I need more of in this video. Yeah. It sounds like Oscar the Grouch was on Crankings. Yeah. My guard says it ain't even good. If you want to watch the whole thing, the screen caption is titled Weirdest Drive-Thru Experience Ever. And apparently the guy did it for over an hour before police finally located him and shut the whole thing down. Oh, so good. He had to shut it down. Maybe give him a full-time job. That was a TikTok click shock. And for your final. Woo, TikTok click shock. This one comes from a judge who was having a virtual court hearing. And the woman he was interviewing about a traffic infraction denied that she was driving while on the Zoom call. Oh, she was calling me to court with Zoom. Spoiler alert, she was 100% driving. OK. Let's listen. You cannot be driving, ma'am. What are you doing? Come on. I'm not driving. I'm a passenger in a car. But I will have my driver pull over and hang on one second. Am I crazy or does it not look like you're driving that car? I'm not driving the car. I'm a passenger in the car, sir. You know you're lying to me, right? I'm sure you are. No, I'm not, sir. Let me see the driver. Let me see the driver. Hang on one second. No. I have to ask their permission. You're not in the driver. You weren't in the driver's side. You think I'm that stupid? It's such a good video. So the results, the judge went ahead and entered a default judgment for lying. And you find her $1,921 for not being available for her court hearing and also lying to the judge. You can literally see her seatbelt strap from left to right in the driver's seat. That's one of those where you go, oh my god, my bad. I'm so sorry. I'll pull over. Yeah, I didn't know I wasn't allowed to be driving. Apparently you're not supposed to lie to the judges either. Let me ask this fake person next to me permission to be on one second. He took that note. They took that note out of the car. Oh, no. Just in time. Yeah, who's driving? You gotta get off the call. So yeah, covered a lot today. Gen Zers crying and napping in theaters. Yeah. Neanderthal voices, McDonald's trolls, and people lying to judges. Yeah. Make sure you follow our show on TikTok too at Brooke and Jeffrey. But those were your TikTok click shots. Stories for the day. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Win Brooke Fox. Woo! Woo! Woo! Does everybody know that it's national twin day today? What? Oh, I didn't know that. Let's have a twin. Well, it's actually perfect because guess who's playing? A guy named Jeffrey. What? It's not a twins work. Your mom had twins and she named them the same. That's confusing. I think she's talking to you, Jeffrey. OK. Yeah, understood. I mean, we're twins. At least name-wise. Wait, hold on. Which Jeffrey's my Jeff? I can't tell, but his voice sounds exactly the same. I know. It's really hard. Oh, my goodness. Tell me something that you drank earlier today. Or hops. My Jeffrey did do that. Or snorted. I like this Jeffrey. I love both my Jeffs. I'll just say, how about some Dixie Vapo rubs? I no longer like this Jeff. I know Vix Vapo rub, but Dix Vapo rub, that's a totally different one. Wait, I mean, it was also rubbing on that. The mental aid and they say, do not put in your nose. Oh, it says do not. So you know. You had to try it. Did you just sniff? I don't associate you. I fully follow that train of thought because Jeffries are always on the same page. So you've got to try one. Absolutely. So Brooke has left the studio in total fear. And now we can get the game started. 30 seconds on the clock to answer as many questions as possible. If you don't know when you can say pass, but you have to beat Brooke outright if you want to win. Are you ready? Yes. All right, let's give a good name to the Jeffrey names sake. Here we go.

Dr. Henry Walton Jones Jr. is much better known by what nickname in the action movies. I pass on that one. Pass. All right. I think I did horrible, but who knows? Well, you still did something. You did. You had interesting answers. That's for sure. Brooke is back in the studio here with us, Jeffrey. So we should let everyone know Jeffrey is a FedEx driver who says he does the same old stuff delivering packages to different people every single day. Hey, are you allowed to make left turns? Isn't that like the thing? Like they're in a left turn? Right turns. You want to deliver? You're making right turns only because left turns are more dangerous, but you have to take a left no matter what. At some point. At some point. No, yeah, you were right. And then you're just white knuckling it, like am I going to make it? Am I going to make this left turn? He's just going to left her right. Oh, oh, oh, right again. Someone give Jeffrey some VIX Vapo rub on his next delivery ride. He uses it a lot. Now, Brooke, it's your turn. Are you ready? I'm ready. Your time starts now. Today is National Burrito Day.

We're going to go over to the scoreboard to check out how you both did with our own Jose. I mean, you suck like you've never sucked before. Balanios. Jeffrey, not you, Jeffrey. You, Jeffrey. You got two correct today. Oh, pretty good. Yeah, better than you thought. Better than you thought? Yeah, it's even better. For double Jeffries. Yeah. And Brooke, three correct. And Brooke. Oh, Jeffrey. What are the answers for everybody? National Burrito Day, a fried burrito is known as a chimichanga. I knew that one. Toy Story Buzz Lightyear is voiced by the infamous Tim Allen. Yeah, I want you to hear it. De Beers is a billion dollar company. They don't make beer, Jeff. They make diamonds. That would be amazing. Ethically, too. Yeah, always ethically. Brooke, of course. No sarcasm there. The current talk show host who was also the first winner of American Idol is Kelly Clarkson. Yes. And Dr. Henry Walton Jones, Jr. better known as Dr. Indiana Jones. I knew that. Well done, Jeff. It wasn't enough to beat Brooke. But just for playing, we're going to give you a pair of tickets to see Charlie Puth perform at the Wa Mu Theater on Sunday, May 3rd. Nice. There you go, Jeffrey. I had lots of fun. You did? Brother, we did too. Actually, to be honest, right before you came on, I was making a delivery. And then when you guys came on, I hopped in the back of the FedEx fan and closed the door. Oh, you just been sitting? Oh, you're hiding. Are you in the dark? No, there's light. Oh, that's cool. Oh, OK. That's cool. I'm not that much of a weirdo now. Take a little nap before you get back to your shit. I love it. And thank you for all you do out there. Yeah, seriously, though. You guys have a good rest of your day. Yeah, Jeffrey. We love you. Come back and play again soon. We're going to do Win Brooke's Box same time tomorrow.
