One of our listeners swears he has a VERY good reason that’s totally “not sketch at all” for wanting to make sure his date location was EXTRA PRIVATE… We’re gonna hear him out in a brand new Second Date Update!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Chapter 1: What is the Second Date Update all about?
Hey, you found it. The home of the second date update. It is Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. And thanks for being here on the podcast. You know, I love all the comments we've been getting from all over the world. And I think this one really sums up what these second dates are. Nicola Huber in Brazil wrote, the call just gets worse and worse.
Oh.
it's true it does it's like a guilty pleasure listening though you know we love when you comment we love when you subscribe even more so uh please do it and hey just sit back and enjoy the second date update it's brand new and it starts right now second date update a lot of so-called dating experts will tell you that it's good to bond over things that you both love
Why did you use dating experts in quotes? That is true.
Well, I'm saying like the same TV shows, same sports teams, same mom. I don't know if I really trust that line of thinking. One of our listeners says he was drawn to a woman based on what they both hate. And that actually sounds healthier to me.
That can bring you together.
So, I don't say this often, but let's spread the hate today and talk to Ethan and learn about his date. Ethan, welcome to the show.
Oh, Ethan.
Hey, guys.

Chapter 2: Why did Ethan choose an extra private date location?
I stopped bringing in salmon, okay?
And where did she say that line? Oh, it's on her dating profile. Ah. Okay. So you saw that and you were like, this is my type of woman. Exactly.
Well, and it's probably a good opening, right? Like, for you to strike up a conversation.
Yeah, because there's actually a guy that does that at my work, so we kind of bonded.
Nothing harder than talking about bad-smelling food. Hot fish, Alexis. Stick with it.
Every office has at least one of those people, but that's cool to bond over that.
It was an opening to see her personality and man, she's funny and we just got along so well after that.
That's awesome. What a great start. Sense of humor is so important. For sure.
Well, not for everybody. Some people all bond over how much they hate humor.

Chapter 3: What bonded Ethan and Aria on their first date?
Yeah, they're like, did you just tell a joke? No. Ew. Good. Gross. How dare you laugh.
But okay, you guys end up meeting up for a date?
Yeah, I wanted to pick a place like a restaurant so I could get to know her. A place that wasn't crowded and that's important to me, just us focusing on getting to know each other.
That's good, bro. I don't know. I get worried about that. Non-crowded places mean bad food to me.
I think the positive, though, is quiet, and you get a little bit more intimate time.
And you can actually talk. The whole staff is probably listening to every word you say in the conversation. It's dead quiet. Yes, a first date just came in. I love sitting next to a first date and Ian's dropping in.
Okay. Well, it's nice that you got exactly what you wanted. How did it go?
It went well, and I'm also not a fan of cameras.
Okay, we have a lot of things that you hate so far.

Chapter 4: What went wrong after Ethan and Aria's dinner?
To be fair, they also usually don't work. Or fake. I work in a restaurant. They're all fake.
I feel you, though. The people at the radio station use my image on stuff all the time, and it's really annoying.
Jeff, security cams? No, he's talking about the promotional pictures.
Yeah, pictures everywhere around here. It's on the cars. It's on the flyers. Give me some space.
I'd like some privacy.
He's buying pretty big in it. It looks like you like it.
I'm with you, though, bro.
You're talking to millions of people daily in one privacy. That's funny.
Did you tell her the thing about how you hated security cameras?

Chapter 5: Will Aria give Ethan another chance?
Sweet. Good.
Nice. She must have had second thoughts, though, because a few minutes later, as we were walking and just having a good conversation, she said, you know what? On second thought, I got to get up for work in the morning, so I got to go. And I was like, are you sure? And she said, yeah. Really?
I don't know. I think it's fair. I think it could have been one of those moments where it's like you got the devil and the angel on your shoulder. And then the devil's like, do it. It'll be fun. And the angel's like, no, you have a meeting in the morning. Don't.
Yeah, yeah. What do you think, Ethan? You think she was being honest with you that she really had to go work the next day?
I'm not so sure. And it's been like eight or nine days since then. And it feels like... Things have shifted, so I don't know why, and I need your help to figure it out.
Right. What did you do with that 30 seconds to make her change her mind?
What were you talking about? You were like, hey, I have 13 security cameras in my house, by the way.
Ring doorbells? Uh-oh. No, no, that's right. No, he doesn't like the security camera. Oh, that's right.
So maybe that's what he said. Hey, by the way, I have no security cameras. There's no traces of me anywhere.
