Published Nov 11, 2023, 2:00 PM

One of our listeners thinks he’s found the perfect, ZERO-FAIL, first date location and he wants to share his magical spot in a Second Date podcast!

Second date update.

You know, when it comes to dating, some people prefer to have a fun activity planned out.

Yeah, that's always great, like axe.

Throwing or chainsaw juggling or fire swallowing a little dangerous, that's what makes it fun.

Other people are happy just sitting down in one spot and eating spam out of a can all night.

Yeah, that's a lot of work.

But one of our listeners, Jonathan, actually falls into the first category. He had a fun date night activity planned out. So, Jonathan, I'm picturing you and some lucky lady doing some first date coal mining together.

Wow.

My hot or cold on that guess?

I mean, definitely closer to the hot than cold, but down the mine. I mean I I thought it was a good first date, you know.

Okay, so we'll get to the exciting date in just a second. Who's the girl that you went out with?

Danielle?

Danielle, how'd you meet her?

We met online? We met on Tinder and we were chatting for about two weeks. And I feel like two weeks is that good sweet spot where you, you know, asked for that first date.

Did anything special stand out about your guys's interaction?

Well, more than an interaction she's super beautiful. Just her pictures, Like I kept I kept going back to her pictures just to look at her, and like, imagine me going out with her.

You didn't say a single word to her for two weeks. It was just looking at her photos.

No, no, no, no, not like that.

But you know what I mean, Right, when when you find someone that you think is really attractive and you're excited about, it's hard to not think about.

It, that fine line between romantic and creepy.

Really, look at picture on the website every day.

Yeah, I look at my picture on the website too, don't blame you. So after two weeks, you were able to get her out to go to an activity.

What did you decide to do together?

We went to Dave and Busters.

Played games. That's a great date.

How do you describe it for people that don't know? It's like an adult arcade?

Basically, it's like Chucky she is for adult.

Yeah, describe shots and then you take some shots with a little basketball.

Yeah.

I love David Busters. You know, I just like I geeked out there, you know, you like, I'm sorry to interrupt.

He are you like a regular there?

Yeah? Like I don't know what you would call a regular. But I go often enough that I recognize the people that work there. How about that.

Arcade bars always have someone who looks like they've been there for a long time.

There's that one person has the high score on every machine.

I've worn up David Buster shirt too, So you.

I mean, how did it go with her?

She seems to be having a good time, you know, like she was interacting. I started playing the you know, the car her game, and I go to basketball. I always get the high score, at least for the day.

You were just playing the games by yourself while she watched her. Were you playing them together?

But she said she was okay watching.

Wait, what what do you mean we're playing together?

What do you say? Dude?

You can play the car game you each get in your own car, and then you race with basketball. Yeah, like crash.

I mean we played knock hockey together, not knock hot like a hockey yeah, air hockey, air hockey.

Did she not play because she didn't want to, or because you were a little over eager and just started without her?

I don't know. I mean she I was ordering us food too. I had, you know, the creole and shrimp, which I love there okay, And you know she was complimenting me. She was like saying, how good of a job I was doing.

At the games or at the eating?

Okay, Well, you know, we get that the menu at david Busters is really good and the games are really fun.

What about Danielle? What was she doing?

She was She was drinking, drinking her phone.

Isn't everyone on their phone a lot in general?

Wait? Does that mean she was on her phone a lot, not.

The whole time?

Ah?

Okay, so those sound kind of like red flags, like she wasn't having a good time, I mean, which you may not have noticed because you love the place so much. You were in your zone.

I won her a teddy bear from the Claw game.

Oh and what was her response to that?

She smiled, She said, thanks so much. I like it.

Girls love stuffy, so that's a good thing.

And then I found five dollars on the floor, so we kept playing a little more.

Oh, you found five bucks? Did you finally let her play on the free money?

She didn't seem that interested in plying herself.

She wanted her to play, but she didn't want It's like, why would she agree to a date at Dave and Buster's if she wasn't into video games.

There's a bar and food too. I mean you don't have to all right, Well, I mean how did it end?

Yeah?

That question? I think we know? How did you why?

You know I drove her home.

In the game or in reality in real life?

Okay, I drove her home that fast she wouldn't be alive.

Was the drive home nice? Did you feel that there were vibes going between you two?

Yeah? You know, we were listening to music and sort of like car dancing.

That's cute.

Okay, car dancing now again, participated in the car dancing, was still drinking.

We were both participating. I think she was a little tipsy.

That's a fun, happy Yeah, it's a fun, happy vibe to end on.

Is there any way that you could have possibly misinterpreted the car dancing as her trying to get out of the car and escape.

She stopped and dropped.

Come on, come on.

I'm just.

So you took her home. Was there kiss? Did you walk her to the door?

Yeah? I walked her to this and I give her a kiss on the cheek.

Okay, Okay, that's good.

That's good and good and nothing since you haven't heard from her at all, or you guys have been texting.

No good conversation, I'm missing an action.

Huh. Interesting, Well, this is a classic second date.

It sounds like you just missed on what you should have done.

If you just need a second chance and the next day can go way better if you're not.

At an art into his video games, what happens?

Yeah, well, we've done enough of these to know that's never the case. It's probably that he didn't get enough high scores. He's not a good enough game. But we're gonna find out for sure. We'll come back.

We'll call Danielle for you and get you your second date update right after this. Okay, hold on second date update.

If you're just joining us, lucky you, because we're on the phone with quite the man. He is a superstar basketball player, an elite NASCAR race driver, an evil thwarting superhero, and twelve time Knocky Hockey champion. You'd think that he'd be named Time Magazine's Man of the Year by now, but instead he owns three different colored Davenbuster's T shirts because he loves it there so much that he's a VIP. In fact, that's where he took his date Danielle the other night, and it sounds like Jonathan is the one who did most of the playing.

Yeah, except for wait, what did she play? He calls it not hockey, but it's air hockey.

Yeah, played most of the time she watched, and maybe that could have contributed to her not calling him back afterwards.

She was more of a fan and not a participant.

She wasn't a good mood on the right home. He said that they car danced.

Some of us like to watch, and that's.

Okay, Okay, I did know we were getting there, Jeffrey, but I'm glad you made that statement for yourself.

Jonathan. Do you like to watch sometimes too?

Yeah?

Okay, glad to see some as enthusiastic about it as I am.

He's positive he doesn't like watching.

Yes, that's exactly what I'm saying.

Metal rim basketball, Okay, that's for sure.

You know some weird ways that you describe things, metal rim basketball.

You're my kind of guy, Jonathan. Let's not waste time. We're gonna call Danielle.

I like rubber ball basketball.

Now you made it weird. Other dialing Danielle right now. We'll see if she answers and see if she can tell us what happened? Here we go? Hello, Hi is this Danielle. Guess what Danielle? You're live on the radio. You don't no pressure? That used to be cool back there? We're bringing it back, We're not.

I'm sorry? What is just about?

Hi, Danielle Live on the radio with Brooking Jeffrey in the morning.

Like you're turning this into one of those never meet your heroes type of moment.

Yeah, I'll bring it down a second here, Danielle. Everything that I said was absolutely true. But what we're doing right now is a second date update, trying to reach out on behalf of our listener named Jonathan who you went out on a date with the other night.

Hot date?

Oh oh okay, okay, it's hot date.

How you would describe it?

I'm sure?

Oh oday, Wait.

A minute, my sarcasm sensors going up.

I I was absolutely being sarcastic.

My sensor's never broken. Why so you didn't have a good time?

So what happened was before he came to pick me up, he was like, let's go to Dave and Busters. It's so much fun and I never heard of it before.

Oh so you did you know? It was like an adult arcade place.

Yeah.

I looked it up and realized that it was was an arcade place. So I told him maybe we should do something else.

Oh, you don't like having fun on your date?

Oh you didn't want to do that date?

Why not?

Oh?

I get so loud, There'll be kids running around, like, this is a first date. I'm just trying to get to know the guy.

My kids, she means people's Alexis's age.

I can't.

You wanted something more chill, though, where you guys could focus on each other.

Yeah, so we could have an actual conversation on a first date.

So did he convince you that Dave and Busters was a good idea?

No? I was like, surprise me, you want to do something else? And he was like okay, oh no, surprise, same idea, original plan activated. He picks me up. I was like, so what are we doing? And then he just drove to Dave and Buster's.

No.

Oh my god, what did you say when you guys pulled into the parking lot.

I was just like, wait, isn't this the place that I looked up online that I told you I didn't want to go to. He was just like, well, you know you've never been here before, so at least you should try it.

He has a point, sometimes you should be open to trying new things.

And what do you mean, no, go somewhere new.

She was very specific on what her wants were for the date, and he totally disregarded her, didn't listen to her.

But sometimes you don't know what you really want until you see it.

It's not what we're going to do on a first date. We're not going to say you don't know what you want. I mean, were you mad? Like what were you feeling?

I was just kind of confused. I mean, he's right, like, I've never been there. I should try it. But like you're saying, that's not what I wanted on the first day.

Well, you said you wanted him to surprise you, And what's a bigger surprise than doing the thing that you said I didn't want to do. Actually, he listened to your instructions very very well.

For you.

I wanted a chill night.

And did you have any conversation at David Busters.

I mean, I was just pretty annoyed that he didn't listen to me. Honestly, the only only thing that had me saying was that he kept buying me drinks.

I didn't.

I didn't pass that from boredom.

Okay, so that's very clear you're not calling him back.

At least something nice did happen for you on the dates. Yeah, and you know, I know you say you like surprises. Well, guess who's on the other line listening and wanting to talk to you right now?

Superstar Jonathan. Yeah, surprise you didn't want to talk to you.

He's on the phone.

Is he on the phone right now?

Yes, I'm mirror in the flesh in the audio. In the audio audio, I thought I was gonna show you a good time, and I thought, you know, I would be bringing you out of your comfort zone. You know, david Busters is such a fun place. And I know other people who have gone to david Busters the first time and then they didn't like it, But then the second time they're like, you know what, this place has grown on me.

It's like acquired taste. Like coffee, you have to grow and then eventually you'll be addicted.

No One, no one likes coffee the first time they have it. Kate Middleton didn't want Royalty at the.

Beginning, like the supermodel Kate Middleton. Wait, oh no, that's the one married to Prince.

Yeah, are you friends with the Windsor family?

It's just it's just my point. You know, Kate Middleton didn't want, you know, a life of like exposure to Royalty and you know all the gas David Busters and Dame Royalty.

That's really sweet. He just compared you to Kate Middleton. That's a really really kind gesture. You could be the Kate Middleton of David Busters.

Jonathan, you're a decent guys like I think you're nice. You're just a horrible listener like that hard to understand that I don't want to do something.

Jonathan, did you not hear like you were sitting on the phone when she was going over the whole thing of why she didn't want to do it, why she felt disrespected, why.

But this is coming from a woman who's never tried the mozzarella brushetta at Davis.

I mean, was he right about the brushetta? Was it as mind blowing as he says it is?

It's daven Busters.

It was all right, you're not a sponsor.

I guess you are Royalty?

Are you saying? I just think, Jonathan, like at first date is a chance to get to know someone, not to go to your favorite place so that you can be there and have play the games you like to play.

It's going to share your passions.

But later on, yeah, well maybe that's part of dating. Part of dating is sharing your passions with each other. Now Jonathan has shared his passion for David Busters, Danielle, here's a chance for you to share your passion with him.

Yeah, that's a good idea. He take in someplace that he doesn't want to go. Where would that be? Want? What do you say, Danielle?

I feel like if I say yes, I'm going to get in the car and he's just gonna drive me there.

Like a moth to a flame.

Himself.

I will take David Busters out of my GPS.

GPS he knows where it is, he doesn't need to put it in anymore.

I'm all right, well, sounding like it's going to be an know from you, Danielle.

I I don't think I can do it.

I wouldn't chalk this up as a lost jowt of thing, because I feel like you learned a lot here.

Yeah. I learned that the mozzarella isn't as good as I thought it was
