Today he’s on our show trying to figure out what went wrong in a Closure Call!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Chapter 1: What is the main topic of the Closure Call episode?
Hey, you found it, the Second Date Update podcast. It's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Thanks so much for being here, especially on a Sunday. Yes. Totally. You know, and Sunday we've really been using to introduce you to all sorts of new relationship drama segments that we do on the show. And today, I think it's the first one we've done on the Second Date Update podcast. Yeah, it is.
We're going to do a closure call. Yes. Those are intense. I mean, sometimes, yeah, they really are. You know, it's probably the most serious thing that we do on the show. Yeah, it is. Good serious. Yeah, good serious. And just emotional, maybe, is a better word than serious. Intense, maybe, yeah.
I don't laugh at all. I cry through the whole thing. All of us.
It's way different. All of us. Grab your tissues. Get ready. God. A closure call is where we have our producer work with one of our listeners to get in touch with somebody from their past. It could be like a family member, a lot of exes. We had a bully one time. Oh, a bully, that's right.
An old roommate that just disappeared once.
Yeah, which is a hint for what today's is, by the way. Anyway, they come up with questions to ask this person that has broken off contact with them. Yeah. For sometimes like years and years and years. Yeah, yeah. And then we read the responses live on air and hopefully at the end, you know, give them a chance to move forward.
Or crush them because they don't know they're going to hear this.
Well, that's not the goal. That's not the goal, but sometimes it does happen. All right, so now you understand what it is. Hopefully you enjoy it. Definitely let us know in the comments. We love reading your comments. We got some today.
Yes, I saw one from so original. Yes, that many O's, okay? Yes. Who said, my favorite moments are when Jeffrey's genuine laugh sneaks out. It's hilariously adorable. Yeah.

Chapter 2: Why is Adam seeking closure?
Oh, boy. You're right. Even my old roommate probably knows more about me than my family.
Yeah, they know all your annoying little habits, your lazy tendencies, and what your soapy silhouette looks like through that shower curtain.
Wait, what? Why are you there?
That's why one of our listeners is so distraught because he and his roommate became real close friends until everything suddenly changed on a random day four years ago. Oh. And he has never got the answers for what really happened on that day. That's why he's enlisted our help for a brand new closure call. We're going to get some answers coming up right after this.
Who knows you better than anyone else? You may think your mom or your sibling or your spouse, but no, the truth is nobody sees you like a roommate sees you.
Oh boy, you're right. Even my old roommate probably knows more about me than my family.
Yeah, they know all your annoying little habits, your lazy tendencies, and what your soapy silhouette looks like through that shower curtain.
Wait, what?
They've seen. That's why one of our listeners is so distraught because he and his roommate became real close friends till everything suddenly changed on a random day four years ago. And he has never got the answers for what really happened on that day. That's why he's enlisted our help for a brand new closure call. We're going to get some answers coming up right after this.

Chapter 3: What happened the day Adam's roommate disappeared?
Is this person just a roommate? Because usually roommates are also your best friends and people that you love, you know, and care about.
You know, he was just a roommate, and then we became really close buddies.
Got it. You know, I moved into a house where I literally found it on Craigslist, didn't know anyone, and then we became best friends.
Well, I mean, that's the easiest way to be friends with somebody, and you know everything about them immediately. Yeah, if you live with somebody, oh yeah.
Yeah, I mean, that's how it was with him. We became great friends really quickly.

Chapter 4: What are the potential reasons for the roommate's sudden departure?
Oh, man. That's great. But some friends you can't live with. There's a difference.
And because this is a closure call, how long has it been since you were roommates with this guy?
Like, he's not in the next room right now, is he?
No, I wish. He's not here. He has been gone for four years now. Oh, wow.
Did he move out of your guys' place?
Yeah, so the way it all went down was things were cool, and all of a sudden, he just wasn't there.
What do you mean? Like in the middle of the night, he moved his stuff out or what?
I would get home from work. I worked really early shifts and I would get home around 2, 3 p.m. And he was there, always there every single day. Showed up at home, the door's wide open.
What?

Chapter 5: How did the show contact the missing roommate, Roy?
I don't have movie night anymore. This is a tragedy. I can't get over him leaving the cat. Did he take his stuff when he left?
He took some stuff. He took like some of his clothes, but he left PlayStation. He left like essentials. Jose's most upset about the PlayStation.
More than the cat. I'm sorry, but we got to give up.
You know where he leaves the PlayStation.
I feel like it sounds like he left for a weekend trip and then was like, actually, this is nicer. I'm going to stay.
Yeah, you went to Hawaii and he's like, oh, I'm going to live here now.
I mean, I know that I wasn't perfect. There were things that kicked him off. I would eat his food sometimes.
Oh, you were that guy.
Well, did he label it?

Chapter 6: What questions did Adam want to ask Roy?
So wait, do you think he was mad at you? Because that's what you're kind of implying.
I mean, me eating some of his food every now and then, or the other big one was that I hardly ever did dishes.
You didn't do your own dishes and you ate his food? You still wouldn't leave your cat and move.
Yeah, it's not that dramatic.
You know, I cleaned the cat's litter and I held up my end of some of the bargain.
Some of the bargain.
I could do more dishes if that was the issue.
But he never talked to you about it?
Yeah, I couldn't have just been about silly little things like that. And I know it's kind of weird because he was just my roommate. And I know it was four years ago. But still, it is haunting me that this person would just up and go. And I really would love some closure. I would love to know what I did.
