FULL SHOW: Overprepared Date, Jeff’s Drunken Regret + Jose Got Phone Tapped? (4/1/26)

No gloss, no filter, just stories, spoken without fear. A person who is not generous cannot be an artist. The world will be at peace only when it is ruled by poets and philosophers. Listen to my weekly podcast, the puja bhajjo on the iHeart radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Come for the honesty, stay for the fire. Hey, it's Brick and Jeffrey and we had a brand new full hour for you today. Yes. And Jeffrey apparently got drunk the other night and made a bad decision at midnight. But he's still regretting today. We're going to go over that in a brand new What's On Your Mind, new second dates coming up. We got laser stories, all the fun, but first the comments. Yes, and I saw one from Stitch Kitty who said, Alexis, free white claws if you read my comment. Hey. I'm not above a bribe. I love listening to you guys and I'm certain my coworkers think I'm insane because I always say some of the segment intros out loud every day, such as, hello, it's laser stories. Update on the polls. Come on. Just call me back. And of course it's awkward. It's Tuesday. It just makes me feel like I'm a part of the show. You're a friend from Houston. Hello, that was so rad. And you knew the way to Alexis is hard as well. It's true. Yeah, there you go. So hey, just for you, Stitch Kitty, this full hour is dedicated to you. It's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Sometimes on this show, we'll recognize our hero of the week. Oh, yeah. But never before have we honored our most unlucky person alive. Oh, no. I like they were just making up awards left and right. We have the power to do it. I'm Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. And today's unlucky laddie is a man named Joshua Spreesterbock. Oh, what a name. Back in 2017, he was homeless for a little bit. Oh, buddy. Sleeping outside churches and in bus stops until one night when cops approached him and asked for his information. Okay, are they going to help him get services that he needs? No, well, he didn't have any ID on him. Yeah. But he also didn't want anybody to know that he was out on the streets. Yeah. He made up a random first name of Thomas and then used his grandfather's last name. All right. Castleberry. I mean, okay. I get the reason why he'd do that. Mr. Bock is hard to spell. Good point. So cops went to their patrol car, ran a background check and found Thomas Castleberry recently had broken out of a mental health facility. Oh, one of the odds. So Joshua was put in handcuffs and delivered straight back to the psych ward. Oh, no. Where they probably didn't believe him when he finally told them that he was Joshua. That's right. No matter how many times he screamed to the doctors or authorities, I'm not really Thomas Castleberry. I made that name up. It's also my grandfather's name. Oh, my God. Nobody was buying that. We've heard that before. What a nightmare for him. Do you even get a call when you get put in a place like that? Like it's not like a, ah. I don't know, but fast forward nine years later. Stop. One of the supervisors running the facility determined Joshua was actually telling the truth. Nine years. Nine years. That's a present. So they helped him get legal representation. Yes. And he just won a lawsuit for close to $1 million in damage. Whoa. It should be like $50 million. They're probably like, well, he wasn't working at the time. So lost wages is a little hard to figure out. I mean, he's getting something, man. That's crazy. Good reminder. Be careful what name you give to the cops because it could be an escaped mental patient and you might have to serve their time for them. Meanwhile, Thomas is still living his life. Speaking of escaped mental patients, Jake, he said you want to do electrocute us with a dog shop color? Yeah, it's my job. I can pay for it. Okay. If you say so, bud, do your thing. Happy April Fool's Day, everybody. All right. So they call it in Germany, day of mandatory scheduled humor. Humor. Do I laugh now? Very good. On this show, we've covered a lot of the infamous pranks that some big companies have done over the years to try and trick their customers on April 1st, like in 2019 when Tinder announced a brand new feature called the height verification. I feel like we fell for that one. I think all the girls were excited about that. Guys were scared. Yeah, I was like, dang it. That's why today, in honor of those creative company pranks, we're doing a special April Fool's edition of 20 of 20. We're no fool, Jake. Now, you say number one through 20. I'll describe a viral company prank that came out on April Fool's Day about 10 years ago. You just have to tell me, is that prank totally true or did I lie in April Fool you? We'll start with the woman who fooled her high school track students into thinking she's a real adult. Got it. True. Got him. Number one. In 2016, Coke announced a new variety with a small shot of helium included that creates a squeaky high pitched effect on the drinker's voice. Just order a classic Coke with helium. Is that prank totally true or did we April Fool you? I mean, I don't know if people would fall for it, but I would want to buy one and try it. Just in case. Yes. Squeaky Coke. They should do it if they haven't, so let's say real. Oh. I don't know if it's an option. It's a real prank. Totally true. Real, totally true prank. Easy for you to say. An easy for you to get a point because that was a real prank. I have a picture of it right here. Wow. That's wild. Which one's this one? I don't think that was real. Coca-Cola helium. It looks just like a normal Coke. It's not real. It's a prank. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. Broker over choosing. Broker over choosing. I'm going to go two. Brooke in 2017 Burger King launched whopper flavored toothpaste, taking the iconic flavor of the whopper and combining it with active ingredients for optimal teeth and gum hygiene. Yummy. Make sure you pay an extra 50 cents for extra cheese. Ew. Stop it. Is the whopper flavored toothpaste prank totally true or did we April Fool you? Well, we just talked about the Reese's toothpaste and one of our listeners actually went online and ordered it and then texted it and said their kids have been loving it. This is that crazy. So I feel like people come up with that idea from somebody else. I don't like that. Take that person's kids away. I think the whopper toothpaste is a real prank. Totally true. Brooke says totally true. It is totally true whopper toothpaste. I have a very pixelated image of the whopper toothpaste here from their little ad. Can you order it without onions? I would hope so. Alright, Jose were over to you one and two are off the board. I'm gonna go with number seven. April Fool's Jake. I'm really going with eight. Look at his face Brooke. You guys got him so good. We have 10 minutes for me to recover after that. Mike Drom. We just have to go right into this. Okay number eight. Jose in 2017 Bush's Beans wanted to get in on the fun. So they launched the newest bean variety. Jelly beans. Is this prank totally true? Did we April Fool you Bush's Big Jelly Beans? Put that on your sloppy Joe. It is cute. You know they always do stuff based around the doggy though. They have a little golden retriever mascot. And so I feel like he would be more involved in the prank. You know, like they sent me like it's Bush's cat. Wow they need to get you on the PR too for Bush beans. I'm gonna say there's no way they were not creative enough. This is fake. Jose thinks that's an April Fool. I'm sorry Jose. Come on Bush's. Bush's Jelly Beans was promoted on this day. Also in a can? 2017. I wonder what the liquid is that comes with that beans. Like the big beans comes with the liquid. It is not. In a can it says Jelly Beans. It is in a can that's funny. That's cute. Alright Jeffrey we're talking April Fool's Day pranks. Cause today is April Fool's Day. Yeah. Alexis got hers right. Brooke got hers right. Jose got his wrong. So we're over to you. I'm gonna get this right in order to not get shocked. I'll take number five. Alright. In 2017 Netflix unveiled are you still watching really a feature where a customer service rep shows up at your house if you ignore this prompt too many times. Is this prank totally true to be April Fool you? I'm sorry that sounds like such a good prank phone call idea. Like Netflix is doing a wellness check on you basically. It's too insane. Nobody would actually fall for anything like this. It's gotta be believable too. That's the key. It has to be just weird enough that it could be true. Not so weird that it's just beyond belief. I'll say the problem with this one is who do you even call if you have a problem with Netflix. Like is there people on the other side of it? No. There is no customer service. I'm gonna say it's too unbelievable. You're trying to April Fool us. Jeffery thinks I made that up. And that was an April Fool and that means Jose unfortunately with your great idea for the cat bean commercial you have lost today's plenty of 20. So Jose is gonna be taking the shock today and somebody wanted to hear Backstreet's back by the Backstreet boys. Boom. Everybody. Yeah. Rock your body. Yeah. Everybody's bored. I should have gone to it sooner. I thought it was gonna be faster. That was your shock collar question of the day. Happy April Fool's everybody. Yeah. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Our listeners may not know this but in the past our show has actually won some pretty prestigious awards. I mean not lately. Not in the last like seven or eight years. Definitely not since I've been here. But back in 2011 I remember it like it was yesterday. When Brooke got the call that she had been nominated for most promiscuous radio personality on birth 70. All the nominees were people she'd slept with. I worked hard for that nomination. We were all so proud of her. We couldn't believe it took her that long to finally get recognized. You and me both. But I have a feeling our show is finally about to take home some more hardware. Hey Brooke what have you been up to? For the bronze brain. Most mind-numbing thoughts shared by people who shouldn't be paid to talk for a living. It's coming up in a brand new edition of What's On Your Mind. I hope we don't win. Right now. It's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning and it is time for What's On Your Mind. Hey. Quick reminder as we go around the room today remember some of our stories might sound like we want to give you up. Some may feel like we want to let you down. Some of us might even want to run around and deceive. No. Some stories are going to make you cry. Okay. Make you want to say goodbye. That's right. While learning What's On Your Mind on April Fool's. Hey. So we're going to start off our April first edition of What's On Your Mind with Brooke. You just did a look on your face. You did not see it coming. You look so stupid right now. Brooke what's on your mind? That was great Jeff. Thank you. So my daughter's getting older in sports and for the first time ever we're trying out what travel softball looks like. Oh. So we had our first tournament ever. And I thought cool. So I showed up with a chair and a blanket and I thought that's all I need. People are bringing full on living rooms to these events. I was woefully unprepared. I mean there is a blow up couch out in right field just with a family. There's heaters. There are double stacked wagons that people are hauling around with full on charcuterie boards. Oh. Charcuterie it's a ball game. I brought a couple of carrot sticks and figured I'd get my kid a pretzel from the snack shack. You joined the one percent for softball. It is a wild thing. And at one point my kid gets injured right. Oh no. She's fine. She's bleeding a little bit. It's no big deal. Oh my God. Right. There's no tears or anything. And one of the coaches runs out. Do you have a bandaid? I'm like no. Why? I'm a bandaid. You'll just spit on it. It'll be fine. Luckily this other mom shows up with like three options of tourniquets. Oh. Wow. I'm asking what she needs to perform legit triage on my kid's scraped knee. She actually has the assistant. She's like scalpel. Yeah. Yeah. So I don't know if travel ball is the right fit. But I did like the inflatable couch idea. See. Yeah. Yeah. Moving on up in the world of children's sports. It was intense. It was very intense. Jose, what's been on your mind? Well the other day I ordered flowers from a florist that's out of state because I have a friend who's sick. Okay. And I fill everything out online and I put the order through. And then I see after I click it, like confirm, I see a copy of my message. I realize I messed up one word in the little message. I hate that. Oh, that's the worst. Yeah. And I'm on the phone with this guy and I swear I felt like I was getting phone tapped. What? This was what, yeah. I'm like, it's supposed to say I'm here for you. Yeah. But the word for has been left out. So it just says I'm here you. Yeah. I know. Okay. So we get to the line and he's like, yeah, I don't, I can't, I can't read this word. What? He's just focused on one of the words and the words he cannot get is I'm. And he's like, yeah, I is, is this even a word? I hope. I apostrophe. I'm like the word I'm short for I am and he goes, oh, I'm, I couldn't tell without the apostrophe. Oh, it's in. What do you think it's L M? Even one M like what is going on right now? I'm here for you. Yeah. So then he's like, okay, now I got it. So we fixed the message. And then he says, by the way, you ordered something called the premium treasure bow cave like $100. Oh, I don't know what that is, but I'll throw something together and make it look nice for you. Sounds very romantic. Whatever it is. Throw it together. It doesn't sound like this man has a legit business. You found something online and he's selling flowers. Back out. She didn't get the flowers, but I swear this guy phoned at me. Alexis, what's been on your phone? Alexis, what's been on your mind? So I've mentioned it many times how my struggle with coaching is being seen as a coach and not a student athlete because a lot of the high schoolers think I am a high schooler. So the struggle continues. Yes. I mean, she moves through life with such authority. And I'm three years in. Struggle still continues until the other day. Oh, yes, because I'm here the starting line of the race. And first one of the kids, she has her phone on her and is about to run and she's like, hey, coach, can you hold my phone for me? And I was like, oh my God, yes. I'll hold your phone for you. I'm like an assistant. I don't care. But then the next one came up. It was like, hey, these tissues in my pocket. Sorry, it's kind of gross, but could you hold them? I have to go run. Oh, you're a mom. You're becoming a mother. Didn't even care. I was so excited. I was like, okay, they know I'm not one of them. So as long as they say coach, you're fit with a winner. Yes. Last year, a girl was in the starting line. She's like, oh, I need this bandaid off my finger. She ran over and gave it to me. I couldn't run with a bandaid. I don't know. I probably, after I was like, I probably should have directed that one to the trash can. No, no, she needs to coach to kiss it afterwards. I don't care because I was on cloud nine. I was like, oh my God, they know I'm not racing. They know I'm a coach. I've made it. Okay. And I will hold all their things all day. But everybody needs it. Wow, a human storage closet. Yes, but I felt respected. Can I get 50 bucks for her dinner tonight? By the way, here's my chewed up gum. Yeah. It's been in my hand. I'm like, I'm not gonna make it. You've come so far. All right, Jeffrey, what's on your mind? You ever had a really long stressful week where finally you get to the end and then you decide you just have to let loose and decompress for a little bit? Yes. You mean every week? Well, that was me this past Friday night. All right. When I got home at around midnight, I thought to myself, I just need to have some drinks and have a little bit of fun by myself and then I can go to bed. Like watch a show or something? I cracked open some angry orchard apple cider. Oh, wow. I didn't know he went that hard. I did. I put on YouTube and I was like, I'm gonna go for it. I don't remember a lot after that. You had a lot of juice. How many did you have? Enough to not remember. Oh, the half of one, bro. You woke up the next morning and when I checked my phone, I realized at some point during the night, apparently I did some online shopping. Oh, no. I was thinking drunk texting. Oh, no. I don't know why I wanted this, but I just looked at the picture and was super confused. Like what was I thinking? I'll show you the screenshot of what it is. Yes, ski mask. Yeah, it's a light blue ski mask. It's turquoise even. With the holes cut out just for the eyes and the mouth part. So you can rob somebody with color. Yeah. To be clear, it's not snowing where we live. I'm not planning a ski trip coming up anytime soon. So I was like, why did I want this? You're trying to thaw. I have no idea. So I canceled the order and now I'm scared to look at my Ring Doorbell footage because apparently I did something outside during the evening. Oh, wow. But I don't want to know what it was. I am not going to scroll through that phone and see what it is. No, actually, can I get that back? I am not going left and right there. It just shows it is dangerous to drink alone, especially on angry orchard. Wow. So be careful out there. Thank you for that PSA. That's what's on our minds. Text into 78592. You can tell us what's been on yours. It's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. It's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. We just shared what's been on our minds. So now the text board is lighting up with our listeners telling us what's been on theirs. Someone texted, I am begging you guys to get Jeff to go on cameo so we can request birthday parodies. Seven laugh emojis. That's from Sarah. All you have to do is write like 10 to 20 more parodies a week. I don't see a problem with it. You don't need sleep. Yeah. And only the best people are on cameo. For sure. I just looked up Lisa Rinna's on there. John Love It. Definitely only the biggest stars go there. Another text says, man, I love the show. I'm listening to second date updates on my phone right now. I love Jose's laugh. Three laugh emojis. Hey, thanks. I was curious if this number was really the text line. Yeah, it is. That'd be so funny. Say no. Say no right now. I don't know who you're talking to. He's like, oh, I better delete it then. Yeah, although. Another text says, I drive about 500 miles a day and could not get through it without y'all. I've been listening for years. Y'all make my day every single day. Thank y'all very much. We appreciate y'all. Why are you so awkward when you say y'all? It doesn't flow. Uh-uh. I'm not a y'all sayer. I'm not a natural y'all speaker. I think you should practice it more. Remember he says caramel guys. Yeah, that's true. He's sophisticated. I do too. And by the way, if you think we make your 500 mile drive better, you should try liquor. No. I've been listening to us tipsy. No. It makes us way funnier. No. So much funnier. God. Give it a shot. But I don't know. We're not going to do any more advice for you. Broke in Jeffrey in the morning. You've heard the phrase, do it for the plot. Oh, yes. Yeah. Where you're out doing something and you think, oh, this is a bad idea. I probably shouldn't be here. Why did I even agree to this in the first place? But if you survive it, then it's worth it. Yeah. Great story. I mean, yeah. Just for that story and the experience alone. I promise you one of the dates that we're about to hear from a guy at a restaurant, there is no reason he should have stayed. Oh, really? He should have got up and left a long time ago. But thankfully for us and for himself and for all of his future children that are going to hear this segment, some day down the road, he chose to stick it out and did it for the plot. We're all going to hear it in a brand new battle of the Tinder dates coming up right after this. No gloss, no filter, just stories, spoken without fear. Addiction is a disease and it should be looked upon as any other disease. How did you cope with a reckless father like me? Join me, Pooja Bhatt, as I sit down every week with directors, actors, musicians, technicians and beyond. You don't need to work with the biggest people and the biggest sound to have great music. I have gone through the Saab Siddhi Khachakar, reached the pinnacle, stung by the sneaker and I've fallen down again. Yeah. I am not writing actively anymore and when I see my old work it kind of saddens me. I'm only as good as the last shot that I gave. Mom's gone but don't shut the theater. The show must go on. Listen to my weekly podcast, the Pooja Bhatt show on the iHeart radio app, Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts. Come for the honesty, stay for the fire. I'm going to publish a pop-up picture book of erotic handshakes. Wait till you see page 23. Don't put your finger in the hole. It's Battle of the Tinder dates where two of our listeners go head to head to figure out whose dating life is the most tragic. We'll go over the rules in just a second but first let's meet today's contestants. In this corner she's extremely close with her family and that's why she has a tattoo on her lower back of her dad giving a big thumbs up. Please welcome Sh0ntel Abreel. Hi everybody. So it's like a dad approved tramp stamp? I think it's like a whole portrait. It's just family love. In the other corner she loves to quote the movie Anchorman on her first dates but only the side characters. Say hello to Whammy Tammy. Hi guys. I love Wham. You really would have had to watch that movie in the last five years to understand that reference. Yeah that is true. 60% of the time it works every time. Every time. That's right. Here's how the game works. One contestant will start by telling one of their worst date stories. The other will try to counter with the nightmare story of their own. We're going back and forth for three rounds until we declare a winner. Yes. Let's start it off with Sh0ntel Abreel. Go for it. Well I was out with a guy and he would not look me in the eye. Oh I hate that. Well some people are really uncomfortable with Icon. It's different if it's uncomfortable if they're doing it on purpose. Or if he's looking at the tattoo of your dad. I figure if I'm on a date with him maybe he should look at me. Okay. I'm like dude is everything okay? And he said oh I contact his intimate so he only does it on the third date. Oh my god. Literally I've never heard of anyone that moves that slowly. Let's keep moving on. Whammy Tammy can you counter? So I went out with this guy and he brings his laptop to our dinner date because he said he had to keep an eye on his pet. Oh. Like maybe his pet's sick or something. Like get a smart phone. Yeah. Like the rest of the world. So I'm like okay like maybe he's got a cat, a dog at home, maybe. And I kind of like lean over and he's watching his fish tank. His fish tank? Like on a live stream and I swear if he paid more attention to the fish the whole night than he did me. It's like when parents leave their kids alone for the first time. I'm not used to him not being around my babies. It's a fish and it was weird and to get back ahead of him I ordered the salmon. Oh. That's really a low blow. Okay Tammy that's dark. Let's move on. We're in to round two now so Aubri-El we're back to you. I was coordinating with the guy for a date and he set me to a location to meet him at and it was some random street so I go there and a school bus pulls up and doors open and it's him. No. What? He's the driver. Okay. Is it his personal school bus or does he work for a school? He works for a school. He tells me that this is my route. I'm going to be done soon so hop on. Did you do it? Yeah I did actually. Oh god. Hurry up, hurry up. The kids can't be late for their parents so I'm like okay. So we finished the shift and drive to a bar. It's a party bus at that point. Oh yeah. Totally. It's not the worst date that we've ever heard on this segment so that's amazing. Tammy tossing it over to you. So a guy invited me over to watch a movie at his place and I get there and he didn't have any furniture except for one chair in the center of the room. Oh. That sounds like a typical bro. It was like a wooden chair from like a dining table and he's like oh we can take turns. Take turns sitting. That's amazing. He's willing to share. Dang. He's going to sit there while she sits on the floor. Yeah. So how did that go? Even crazier. He was like I'm going to sit first. I expected me to lean against the wall. He didn't even give you first seat. Onto the third and final round here. That means we need your best stories ladies. So show and tell. What have you got for us? Oh I met this guy. I'm going to bring my camera to our hiking date. We're going to do a fun photo shoot. That's cool. I'm like okay. So I dressed up here than I would normally like for a hike. We get there and he hands me the camera and says I'm ready. And he takes his shirt off and begins posing. Oh. You're the photographer. Yeah he never said he was the one taking the pictures. He just said he likes the pictures. Yeah. Yeah. Whammy tammy this is your last chance. So I'm at a bar and I meet this guy. And he was pretty charming. And we have a few drinks and afterwards he was like hey do you want to walk over to my place. And I'm feeling him. So I'm like yeah let's do it. So we go and it's this huge house. And he has this go around and like ultimately climbs through a window and I'm kind of like is this even his house. Yeah. It was his old frat house from college. Oh nice. Oh my gosh. Sick bro. No. Sick. You can't get in trouble for breaking and entering in those places. No everything's already broken. Yeah. It was just so embarrassing because then there's all these frat guys there and they're just rolling their eyes when they see him. He's the old guy that won't leave. It's like yo what's up pay to pay to capo you remember me. I'm a legend around here. Still bringing girls home. Yeah. All right that's the final bell and that means the match is over. We need to score it. Good luck to our judges Alexis who are you giving it to. Tammy for the guy with the one chair. Oh my god. Having to sit on the floor. One vote for Tammy Brooke. Dude if you've ever been in a frat house Tammy wins. Yeah. That means congratulations whammy Tammy. Thank you. You're a lovely lady of the week how does that feel. I mean I had to suffer for this victory but I feel as well earned. Don't stay in a frat house again girl you're too old. So embarrassing. That was Battle of the Tinderdates. Text in 78592 if you want to appear on the next edition. We got a phone tap coming up right after this. All right it's time for your phone tap and today. Oh wait my zippers I'm done. What? What the heck? April Fool's. Oh god. I made you look Brooke. I did totally look. I'm really looking at your junk right now. I'm going to go left. All right. We have a tradition on this show where we try to do April Fool's phone taps on people and we recorded one earlier this morning with a woman who says she spotted possible fraud charges on her account. So Jose pretends to be a customer service rep. Oh no. And here's the thing on any other day of the year he would try and help fix her issue. Of course. Oh I'm sure he would. Yeah. But because it's April 1st he's a little skeptical because he's been the victim of many pranks in years past. Oh I see. And he doesn't want to fall for it again. Not going to get me. You'll hear it in your special April Fool's edition phone tap right now. Brooke and Jeffree's phone taps on the 20s. Hello. Hi. I'm looking to speak with Jenny please. Who is this? Hi Jenny. My name is Bobby Thompson. I work at credit union. I was just calling because we received an email from you about a potential fraud purchase on your debit card. Yeah. Could you look into that? There's a couple of charges on the other. I don't recall. Oh yeah. I bet you'd really like me to look into that wouldn't you. Yeah that's why I sent an email. Yeah. You'd like that if I looked up your account right? Let me guess. I'm going to start typing and all of a sudden there's some type of invisible gorilla glue on my keyboard. Yeah. Not falling for that one. That happened last year. I'm not letting it happen again. Okay. Okay. Could you just look in my account please? I'm not an idiot. What? Everybody knows what day it is today. It's April Fool's Day okay and I'm not falling for this. I realized it's April Fool's Day but I called into you guys because I'm just worried that there's something going on at my account. Can you please look at it sir? All right. Whatever you say. Just tell me about these quote potentially fraudulent purchases. Well they are real purchases. It's just that some of them are mine and some of them I've never been to or used. Like there's one here for Sheila's Day Spa. I've never been there. Never heard of it. So that's why. Okay. Let me guess. You want me to start typing and taking notes on all this? Okay. You're just being rude and I'm asking you to do your job. So if you're not going to do it. Hold on. Wait a minute. What did she say? Did she say Katie? What? Did she put you up to the, hold on. Katie. Katie is this you? I know. This is you huh? Don't look at me like that Katie. You look guilty. Oh my God. Scoundrel. I don't care if it's April Fool's Day or not. I have nothing to do with any joke that you think this is. I just want you to look into my account and see what is going on. Okay. But only if you promise it's not going to be like last year. Could you just do me a favor? I want to speak to someone else. Could you put me on someone in charge of you? Oh, professional. Then you can I transfer you? I want to speak to your manager. As soon as I press the transfer button, I'm going to get shocked or something. Electrical current is going to run through my body. Oh, got me. Oh, this trick in the book. And when I find out what your name is, I hope you lose your job because you are an idiot. You're an absolute idiot. Well, everybody that knows you is a fool. Okay. Oh, a fool. Oh, a fool. Cool. Coincidence that you called me a fool. You know what day it is today? Listen to me, sir. I am a real person with the complaint and now I got to deal with it. Like you give me your boss because mm-hmm. Okay. You get fired. Oh, I'm going to get fired. Let me guess. My boss is going to call me into the office and the second I walk in, boom, I'm covered in saran wrap April fools. I knew it. I will not fall for that one either. Come on. What is that to do today? Are you bored at your job? Is that why you got to just hit people? I actually am really bored right now. You are? Yeah, because I'm actually not even from the bank or anywhere. I'm at a radio station. You're at a what? I'm at a radio station. This is a prank. My name is Jose from brick and Jeffrey in the morning. We're doing a phone tap on you right now. Are you freaking kidding? Who did this? Your best friend, Delilah, set you up because she wanted to pull an epic April fools prank on you. Oh my God. I am going to freaking kill her and I apologize. Oh my God. I'm so envious because this is on the radio. Oh my God. I sound like such a. If you really want to get back at your friend Delilah, let me take care of it. I'll take her credit score right now. I'm at the bank. Let's go. Let's go. Boom. It's a three. Oh my God. Hey, happy April fools, Jenny. Thank you. You're awesome. You're going to pitch me off and take my day. Broke in Jeffrey's phone taps on the 20s. Broke in Jeffrey in the morning. Some people like to show up to a first date five or 10 minutes early just to scope it out, get their bearings or in Alexis's case to handle the insurance information after she hops the curb and smashes into the corner of the restaurant. But one of our listeners denying it from Alexis over there. She knows it's true. I mean, I'm not going to lie. I think she has a legal case pending. Yeah. Comment on it. One of our listeners purposely arrived over an hour ahead and you'll never believe what he did during that time to prepare for his date. Oh, he's just like an airport. Did it backfire or help him? We're going to find out in a brand new second date update next. No gloss, no filter, just stories, spoken without fear. Addiction is a disease and it should be looked upon as any other disease. How did you cope with a reckless father like me? Join me, Pooja Bhatt, as I sit down every week with directors, actors, musicians, technicians and beyond. You don't need to work with the biggest people in the biggest sound to have great music. I have gone through the Saab Siddhi Khachakar, reached the pinnacle, stung by the sneaker, I've fallen down again. I am not writing actively anymore and when I see my old work it kind of saddens me. I'm only as good as the last shot that I gave. Mom's gone but don't shut the theatre. The show must go on. Listen to my weekly podcast, the Pooja Bhatt show on the iHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts. Come for the honesty, stay for the fire. Broke in 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. Because 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. He's on the phone with us so we always judge that word pretty harshly. 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. You should have sent an audio message to her. You have a great voice, Jameson. I appreciate it, thank you. You're welcome. Are we getting straight to the line? I don't know, I just want Jameson to talk more. Why are you blushing? He's going to quiet. Quiet and whispery. So 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. Okay, I was expecting a little more. I'm going to say I didn't leave a voice note of that. Because 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 Valhalla. I've been searching for you. Valhalla? Like the Viking afterworld? Yes, the Nordic heaven. Wow. Did she get your... Did she get your Viking joke? She ended up sending an eye roll emoji. She's heard it before. She still wanted to talk after that. Okay. 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. Like it got through still. Dude, everyone that listens to this show, how should we pay the time? 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's going. Yes. 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 farmers market, actually. Oh, wow. Not quite the afterworld, is it? But I guess it'll do. But it worked, man. Yeah, it did work. How was the farmers market? That's always a cute date, stuff to look at, stuff to talk about. Yeah. So I actually went to the farmers 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 farmers markets? So you could be a tour guide to her? Yeah. Yeah, I mean, it seemed like 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, Jose. Yeah. This would be Jose's alley. And you're like, 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, no. Pretend you support local weekly when you don't. What's up, Jameson? Someone calls you out like, oh, I met you like an hour ago, didn't I? Yeah. Were she impressed? It only happened once, but you know, it did happen. Okay. 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. Yeah. Everybody knows you. It's cute. Big shout at the farmers market. All right. You're running the farmers market. That's super cool. Yeah. So it's not a flex for you. 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. Okay. What'd you guys connect over? Some of our interest books, TV shows, some of the art we saw at the farmers market. We both like food. You eat. Me too. Do you like markets? Yep. You like farmers? Yeah. Wow. Let's get married. We're giving you a really hard time, Jameson. It does. It sounds like a very sweet. It does. I mean, the fact that there aren't 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. Oh, that's exactly where my head was at. Yeah. So many would be. But was it like when you look back on the farmers 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, did that backfire? Yeah, I think it could have because vendors, they love to talk. Yeah. I tried to get a little bit of a long 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. Okay. Well, that's, I mean, a mimosa, 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 and I guess she didn't really read that. So she tried to give me like a high five or something. One of those situations. I hate leaving things like that. No, you couldn't even hug right. It feels bad to leave on an awkward note. Yeah, it was weird. You know, our navel's kind of connected and, but they also didn't. Okay, actually it's sexier than I thought the way you described it. I was naval so unattractive. I don't like that word. 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. All right. When we do your second date update right after this. Hold on, man. I appreciate it, guys. Thank you. We appreciate you. Hold on. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Second date update. Welcome back to Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Oh. Second date update. So dramatic. As we embark on an epic journey searching for Valhalla. Oh. I liked it. I liked it. It's Val, a woman that our listener Jameson went out with for a day at the farmer's market. 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. 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. Okay. 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, Joe. 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. Take the costume on. I appreciate it. I don't think so. I do it. We all appreciate the visual that you just gave us. That's going to inspire us to work even harder to get you to your goal. You sound good to me. Okay. 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. Soft-spoken. 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 Brook and Jeffrey in the morning. Hey, Val. Hi. Hi. Hi. Good morning, Val. How you doing? Is this real? This doesn't sound real. I don't know what this is. It's not real. 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 AI. No, we're not AI. It'd be a little bit weird if AI was to call you out of the blue and ask about your dating life. Hey, we don't know what AI is doing on the background these days. That's the future. Yeah. You and me, we're together. We don't trust that artificial intelligence. Let's go. I trust her. Okay. There we 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 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 AI's are the ones that don't have the imagination to picture it. So that's okay. That was a bad burn. That was what 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 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, okay. You know Jameson. I do know him. I do remember him, but he's, 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 farmer's market date? Yeah. Like it just felt kind of an original. It was like a pretty boring date. You're talking about the farmer's market date? Yeah. Like it just felt kind of an original and like, like if people were music, he would be like elevator music. Wow. That was such a good comparison. That's a good bird. That's a good bird. Okay. Hold on. I mean, you know, I, yeah, let's leave the jokes to us. Val, that was a little uncalled for. Maybe he shouldn't have put them emos at the end of the date. Maybe he should have put them at the beginning and you would have had a different opinion. Okay, Teen Wolf. Jeez. Is that another hair joke? It's another Michael J. Fox. What? It's Michael J. Fox. 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 laughing right now. Get back to Val, Jeff. Okay, 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. And 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, yeah. 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, duh, I have said that. I feel like that he's boring. Okay. Okay. 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. 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 panther energy. Yeah. That roar. Jameson, did you, you heard what she said, right? Yes, I heard all of it. Okay. 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 a... Wow. Emotionally mature response. That's actually refreshing. 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 hot. It seems unwarranted. Oh man. You know what? I'm glad I hear it now because I'm pretty sure the waitress at the bar we went to won't think that. Yeah. There we go. Wait a minute. You're trying to serve it back. What does that mean? Exactly what you think, you know? Once you left the bar, I stayed back a little bit, ended up talking to our waitress and you know, I got her number. So it's all good here. Okay. 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 Wallflowery 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 gonna enter this. How Jameson is sounding. I'm into this side. No, 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 like snap back like that. I'm kind of in 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, like I feel like I'm not as distracted. And like the voice and the like come back, I'm kind of into this. I could be, I could be swayed. I could be swayed. Really? It sounds like you could be swayed pretty easily. Well, let me say you'd be some trouble. I'm not interested anymore. I think I'll be seeing that waitress. Oh, wait. No way. Dude, what a power move. Is that true? You don't want to go out with her again? No, I'm good. Wow. Wow. Because he heard the truth. He heard her original reaction. Yeah. That's a thing. Yeah. 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. What worked? For the purposes of this segment, we're going to pretend that it still is true. Okay. And 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 sent 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. Waiter, little clown. What an offer. Okay, well, Val, it's up to you. Hey, I'm into it. So, yeah. Oh my God, this guy's got so much wrist. I know. What the heck? But I'm still none 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. Yeah, seriously. Brooke and 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. Do 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 a comment. He knew exactly what she wanted. Yeah. He was able to fully turn things around in his favor by simply not caring and just being like whatever. Yeah. Which is why I don't even care if you find us on our podcast right now. Smooth. Find us. We're not desperate. Don't find us. Like us. Don't like us. We don't care. We don't cry at home. Yeah. We're bad. No. If you go to Brooke and Jeffrey's second date update and you say nice things, we probably won't even read it. We will. Yeah, we're gonna read it. Yeah, I always reply to them. Yeah, or you might. This is a message to all the travelers out there, people looking to go on spring break. Or maybe fly for business. The airports are now saying, please do not arrive early. Oh, no. Oh, no. Oh, man. I thought the day before you got to show up now. Now they don't want to say it because there's too many people. It's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Yeah. A spokesperson for Columbus International Airport in Ohio. What a job. Recently said they're having people get there three to four, sometimes five hours early. Yeah. And it's actually causing more problems. It makes sense. So they're begging people, please don't do this. Just 90 minutes early will do the trick. Oh, because now people are like crowding the airport, taking it out everywhere. Yeah, trying to get through TSA all at the same time. Yeah, and some people's flights are like seven hours later. Exactly. People arriving earlier at times when they shouldn't be creates longer lines for everyone. And if you just space out your arrival times to the airport, to the normal amount, it helps keep things moving along smoothly. Now, the only issue is some airports, some of the bigger ones have not been able to keep people moving through the checkpoints. It's a rare case, very rare. Yeah. But some have reported TSA lines of more than two hours. There's like four or five in the whole country that are like... I don't even know that many. Maybe three. Yeah, it's the one where everybody's calling out sick at TSA. Yeah, yeah. But that's why in New York City right now, there's a new place holding concierge service where someone will stand in line for you. Shut up. And they'll charge $25 an hour for two hours minimum. I would do this. Oh, honestly. This is actually... I'd be the person waiting for that. Yeah, you'd make money. You're the money. Yeah. Another entrepreneur. She's dog walking and lying down holding. There's another entrepreneur named Jimmy Payne who says he's willing to travel to several airports to stand in line for you. Oh my gosh. But you've got to pay him in advance. It's $600 to $1,200 depending on how far the airport is and he'll need at least one week's notice. Oh my gosh. Wow. JfK LaGuardia. Sit down. His bio says, strong legs, strong bladder, zero complaints. Dude, if people are willing to spend that, just get a private jet at that point. If you're in that category of money, don't even show up, please. Don't come to the regular airport. You're not invited. If you have $600, you should be flying private. Yeah, yeah. It's like a huge job. $1,200 on top of your plane ticket. That is insane. Okay, way to sound in touch. Just round up to the $100,000 for the private jet. That is insane. Yeah, there you go. Airports say you're arriving too early. Luckily, we're on time for laser stories right after this. No gloss, no filter, just stories, spoken without fear. Addiction is a disease and it should be looked upon as any other disease. How did you cope with a reckless father like me? Join me, Pooja Bhatt, as I sit down every week with directors, actors, musicians, technicians and beyond. You don't need to work with the biggest people and the biggest sound to have great music. I have gone through the Saab Siddhi Khachakar, reached the pinnacle, stung by the snake and I've fallen down again. Yeah, I am not writing actively anymore and when I see my old work, it kind of saddens me. I'm only as good as the last shot that I gave. Mom's gone but don't shut the theater. The show must go on. Listen to my weekly podcast, the Pooja Bhatt show on the iHeart radio app, Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts. Come for the honesty, stay for the fire. We're adding beer leaders. Posting up on the big screen which section has downed the most beers during the game? Oh, like the actual leaders. Yes, like a competition. Like come on, section 308, 120 more Budweiser's will take the lead. Alright, section 309's passed out. They won. With laser stories. The segment where we read weird news stories around the globe just like everyone else does except we've got a laser. And those other beer leaders just don't. This first laser story is out of a fan favorite, Florida. Remember that Willy Wonka experience last year in Scotland that was such a huge disappointment. It reduced kids to tears. It became international news. Oh yeah. Well, it kind of happened again. Alright. But this time it was Barbie's good name that was dragged through the mud. How did nobody get time for that? How dare they? Seriously. Do you know how hard she worked for everything she had? Drag Ken, not her. Yes, thank you. Unless it's Mud Wrestling Barbie, then she shouldn't be anywhere near the mud. That is not the point of Barbie, Deb. Some folks paid up to $450 to attend the Barbie Dream Fest at Broward County Convention Center in Fort Lauderdale. That is so much money. Yeah, conventions are no joke. But what they got instead was a total nightmare. Uh-oh. The massive space was filled with just a few vendors and cheesy attractions like a 20 foot by 40 foot roller skating rink and the giant... 20 feet long? And the giant Barbie interactive dream house was just a giant cardboard cutout. Oh. Yeah, it was a place flat against a wall just for a photo op. You can't even walk in. I know you're supposed to use your imagination when you play with Barbie, but not for $450. I know. They really downsized her dream house in this scenario too. This is the smallest roller skating rink I've ever seen in my life. Plus all the speakers that were supposed to be there cancelled due to sickness. Were they ever really supposed to be there? That's what they say. People who attended Barbie Dream Fest are comparing it not only to the Wonka experience, but to Fire Fest as well. Yeah. Empty promises. No dreams there, just nightmares. No word if the event organizers will refund disappointed attendees their money. How could they not? Yeah. But it does give Mattel a new idea for their next doll, scam Barbie. Taking everyone's money in the shadiest way possible. Barbie costs $1,000. Scam Barbie just upgraded her dream house. This next laser story is out of Bat-Bay. For decades, there's been a chunk of carved limestone in a Dutch museum that looked like it could have been some kind of game board. It's about 1,700 years old. Whoa. So it's not like they could ask anybody how it would work. Oh yeah, like maybe put marbles in there or something. Yeah. It's like square with some, alright. They didn't know until now. Oh, we don't know how to play? Because a group of archeologists and computer scientists fed it to AI and it came up with several possible ideas. Okay. The main one that was suggested was a blocking game where one player tries to trap the other opponent's pieces until they can no longer move. I like that. Kind of like chess. Yeah, and where marks on the slab support this idea. So scientists tried to replicate what AI said to do and they believe it's actually correct. Yeah. Oh, is it fun? I want to play. If it's true, this would be the earliest relic of Connect 4 out there. Yeah. I'm just kidding. But it would be the earliest board game ever invented. The other intriguing takeaway from this is maybe we're getting to the point where scientists could walk through museums showing AI a bunch of stuff in there that we don't understand yet and it would connect the dots in ways that humans haven't been able to. You know what? And even if AI was making it up, we'd believe it anyway. Yeah, we'd believe it anyway. Better than not knowing. Yeah. Let's go to your next laser story out of Condiment Corner. Everyone in the world goes crazy for McDonald's for better or for worse. Oh, yeah. But ranch dressing, that's just an American thing, right? I think so. You are going to lose your job. Yeah, I thought so. I don't think they do ranch in other countries. Oh, yeah. I say that because Hidden Valley Ranch is looking to hire ranch ambassadors to send over to Europe. I like we're going to spread the good word of ranch. Like missionaries. Yeah. And they're going to spend two months showing foreigners how ranch can complement all of their local favorites. Who's on TV in Paris eating snails and dipping them in ranch? Yeah. To show the locals. Maydays is huge in that country. So I mean, it's not going to be a big jump for them. And it would be two teams of two people doing the work. You don't have to be a couple, but you do have to be cool sharing housing and feeding each other salad dress. Why do you think so? Why do I want a reality show out of this? Yes. Oh my God. Two strangers appeared up to eat food around the world. Ranch rodeo. Yeah. I'd watch. All travel expenses are covered for you. So if you're interested, you can go to our Insta stories at Brooke and Jeffrey. Click the link to their website. Fill out your application to become a ranch ambassador. I bet you. Oh my God, Brooke may not be on the show for very long. Yeah. All the ranch you can eat, man. Oh. Let's go to your final laser story out of Salutation Central. Goodbye. You've probably heard of the Irish goodbye. Yeah. Where you leave a party without saying farewell to anybody. Every time I got drunk, I used to do the same as a French exit, right? What? What's that? No, no, that's what you make out with someone. No. You just leave too. My dad. Sometimes you'll end up puking in a neighbor's bush too. But have you ever heard of the Midwest goodbye? Oh, is that where you stay for 80 minutes and say goodbye? You're too nice. You're too kind. You can't leave. The opposite of an Irish goodbye where you say so long to everybody at the party and it takes absolutely forever. That's my dad. That's my husband and my kids are always dying. You said we were going to go. No, my dad will hunt you down if we're at a bar. We're going to be like, oh, I forgot to say goodbye to Christina. One second. Like, according to the Chicago Tribune, most of it involves lingering in doorways. Quote, we spend so much time standing on a threshold, one hand on a doorknob, resisting leftovers, hugging, promising to return, resisting leftovers once again, listening to just one more story, being unable to extract ourselves. That is the definition of a Midwest goodbye. That's hard for me. I mean, after you say goodbye to everyone, you're like, should I just stay? Yeah. I love all these people. Which is completely different than an Australian. How do you do? Wait, what's that? Uh-oh. You ever heard of that? No. It starts out as a friendly hug where both people lean in at the same time, but then somehow one of you ends up down on them. Oh, I get it. And nobody's mad about it. That's something. That's a good one. That means laser stories has come to an end for the day. We'll do it again, same time on Friday. Win, Brooke, boss! Woo! Woo! Woo! It's almost trivia time on Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning, but it's also April Fool's Day. So we gotta do something fun to mix it up. Are you supposed to tell people about the prank before you do it? Yeah. That's why today, as a special treat for Brooke and for all of our listeners, I will not be hosting this segment. Instead, I'm handing over the reins to the highly capable, always composed, never flustered, Alexis Fuller. Oh, no. Alexis Fuller. Oh, no. Take my microphone and my picture. Okay. I will be observing from nearby, but you can introduce today's new challenger in your own style, Alexis. Go for it. Do you have their names? Yes, I do. It's Allie. All right, Allie. Who describes herself as a chief home officer? Chief? Chief. Chief? Okay, CEO of her house. I thought she was just in a trailer park with those chief homes. No, Allie, are you there? I'm here. I'm here. Okay. Can you describe that for us? Of course. Well, I worked in the corporate world for a long time, and then about a year ago, I started taking care of my kids and family full time. So I needed an official title, right? Okay. You're still working hard. Is you still wearing power suits while you're doing dishes and the dishes? I definitely just did a power stance before I called. Okay, cool. Make a joke about power stances. This is where you make a joke. Power stances. So last year. Sorry. I thought it was just me. Sorry. You had to send me out of the room. Get out. Okay. Get out. She's just going without a hook. Sorry. And Allie, I am hoping you know how this is played because I don't. You have 30 seconds to answer as many questions as possible. You don't know one, just say pass. You ready? And how much you win? How many you win if you get more right than Brooke? Yeah. All right. Are you ready? I'm ready. Okay. Here we go. Your time starts now. Today is April Fool's Day. For one point, make a donkey noise. Heel. If you're driving 60 miles per hour, how long will it take you to drive 60 miles? Um. Oh. Okay. Which one of these does a starfish have? Brains, stomach, or heart? Does or does not? Does. Um, has heart. Okay. In the movie The Lion King, Pumba's a warthog. What animal is Timon? Timon is a lemur. All right. Good job. Um, oh, Brooke. Oh, you can come back. Brooke. Brooke's here. Okay. So, I, today's how I'm nervous, Allie. Today's, I am April Fool's Day. I heard you and your husband have a little prank you do. What's funny about that? Can you explain the prank? Do you want to tell us about it? So, I got to give my husband credit for this. Um, but he brings out the tray of brownies and, and they get passed out. The kids go take a big bite and they were actually sponges covered in frosting. And. I thought it was going to be, my son brought me home brownies. And it was just bees cut out out of brown paper. Oh, only me. We, we, we cut out of brown paper. Oh, brown. You're losing me on that. That's pretty bad. One brownie. You're over Brooke. Okay. Brooke, it's your turn. It is my turn. Are you ready? I'm so ready. Okay. Your time starts now. Today's April Fool's Day. For one point, make a donkey noise. Hey, huh. You're driving 60 miles per hour. How long will it take you to drive 60 miles? One hour. Which of these does a starfish have? Brains, stomach or a heart? Does they have? Yes. Uh, stomach. Okay. In the movie, the Lion King, Pumbas of Warthog, what animal is Timon? Oh man. He's one of those little guys, Meerkat. There are three colors on the American flag. How many on the Japanese one? Two. Okay. Now, oh yes, we are going to find out how you guys did at the scoreboard with Jose. I'm tired. I'm wasted. I love you darling. Come on, Yos. Allie, you got one correct today. Good job. What? Allie. And look, you got five. Oh wow. Allie, I wish I could say that was a joke, but it's true. Brooke did get five. Sorry. But now we will go over the answers that I am reading. I forgot about this part. Donkey noise. Good job everybody. Look what a sick donkey. Yeah, Brooke. What's a sick donkey? Say what kind of donkey. All right. If you're driving 60 miles per hour, how long will it take you to drive 60 miles? One hour. Allie, you didn't get that right. I just, I totally panic. Oh, well, not sorry. I can hear it. It's okay. It's my first time here. Which one of these does a starfish have? That's a stomach. Oh, no brain. In the movie, the Lion King, Pumbaa's a warthog, and Timon is a meerkat. And there are three colors in the American flag and two on the Japanese flag. Do you know which ones? Red and white. Hey, Brooke. Allie, I'm sorry about the loss, but the good news is just for playing you won a pair of tickets to see Charlie Puth perform at Wa Muthi. Why are you yelling? I'm so stressed. I'm so stressed. I'm so tired. You got anything to say, Allie? You probably should talk because you need to say the next thing. It sounds great. When is it? Sunday, May 3rd. She said that. She said that when it was hard to hear. Oh, Allie, I'm so sorry. Through her giving up. No, all good. This was fun. Thank you, guys. Wow. Wow. I don't know how to end this. It's done for today. We'll be back another time. Yeah. Thank you. Same time tomorrow. That's it. That's it. Broken Jeffrey in the morning. Fire.
