We have a couple favorite listeners who have called into our show for help before and one of them is back today for more. MATT-MAN is back for another Second Date opportunity!
The second day. It's a record breaking fourth time this person has been on the show requesting our help. Oh god, it's none other than the Caped Crusada of Romance. When I say caped, I mean he's got his extra long jammies on this morning. Matt Man is that man? Welcome back, Matt, Hey, thanks for having me. You guys, it's like we're starting to be the superheroes of your life. We're helping so much, you know. Yeah, clearly we're not very good at it. But real quick, for those of you who have not heard of Matt Man before, he's a friend of the show. And we call him Mattman because on one of the very first dates we ever heard from him, he went out to a movie premiere dressed as the Dark Night and ever since then, his legend has lived on yes, along with his ever active dating profile. Matt last time that we heard from you, I thought, tell me if I'm wrong, I thought we you had a girlfriend before? Is that right? Yeah? That that one didn't really work out too well. But just because one heads doesn't mean it wasn't a success. Sure, you know, I'm sure you learn from it, grew from it. So now we're doing another second day update. So you must have met someone new, right I did? Yeah, I met I met a girl Jackie on the app. Okay, okay, would you like about Jackie? I mean, right off the bat, she was great. I mean she looked just like her pictures. Was that a bat pun or no? Right off the bat? I was thinking he was going to call her jacker like joker? Yeah? Better? Okay, Well she looked like she said she was gonna look. I like, standards are still very high. Yeah, all right, what'd you end up doing with Jackie? Well, Jackie, she wanted me to pick her up, so, um, I just say to hop in my map mobile. All right, it's an actual card, it's a it's a hun day just like all right, And how are you feeling heading into the date? I was maybe a little nervous at the beginning, so I just thought, Yeah, So I thought I'd bounced it out with some of my patented, world famous Matman humor. Okay, what do you mean? Would you go with a knock knock joke? I started with one of the classics, the old parallel park trick. What's up? I don't know if I'm familiar with that one, So I thought it would be funny if I pretended like I couldn't parallel park. So I asked Jackie if she could go outside and maybe spot me and like tell me if I was getting close or I was going to hit the curb right like around like the third fourth time, I decided, I'm just pretend to drive away. So I drove away. What there's no way she was laughing. I was only gone to like ten seconds, but the look of horror on her face was I could see that. I could see how that could be. And it's funny, Like six months into her relationship, it's not funny the first like literally, you haven't even had dinner with this person yet, laughing funny, it's just like, oh yeah, say she said something like, don't ever do that again, but I need that too funny. She doesn't want to laugh, but I will say if she says don't do that again. Her mindset is that there could be a next time you hang out, even in her anger, some hope there. Okay, this is good so far, I think, or where did you end up taking? Jackie? So you know, I mean, I'm starting to get a little bit of dating experience, so I a better every time, man, I think so, so I thought i'd step up my game. And um, I don't know. You guys might think I'm a nube. But I took her to sushi. That's great, that's a great first. It was good. I mean, there are so many good flavors, So I thought sushi flavors. I've never thought of them as flaying. Okay, so I ordered thirteen roles. What did you just well, yeah, because I've never done sushi. So I just thought like the roles were the like that you thought the individual pieces was a role, but one role has like six to eight slices. Yeah, exactly. The waiter head of bringing like a whole other table just to attach it so we could have all this food. It's like cascading off the side, but like a be dying of embarrassment, like just as you're sitting there, as more and more plates keep being delivered, like it would be so CRUs like a guy to eat Like I wouldn't want a guy to eat less than me. So anything you want in the restaurants, how to sushi night end? It's kind of a mess. We laughed about it and it was fun. Later I actually take a picture with her out front the day. Yeah, is that a bad thing? Alexis doesn't like that. It's a nice thing to take a picture with someone, like, Hey, let's remember this. No different opinions in this room. Really, Okay, maybe that was a mistake of yours, Matt. I don't know. She let me touch her waist. She posted the picture too, Yeah, but she she cropped me out of the photo. I don't think you should be insulted by that. It would be weird. She couldn't really just take a selfie, so, I mean, I never heard from her, like I thought it was a great date. Okay, Well, there has to be some sort of logical explanation for this, and we're just going to ask her directly. All right, we'll come back and do your second date update next second. We're in the middle of another second date update with friend of the show, Matt Many. Just a quick recap if you missed the first part. Matt did a sushi date with a woman named Jackie, gave her a little parallel parking humor before that, and then at dinner ordered thirteen different sushi rolls because he didn't know he thought a role meant the individual pieces of sushi he really need to have done sushi trade. Then he could have just picked one plate at a time. Oh yeah, I would have been better. He tried to go fancy and go to a night restaurant. Cane the things we're looking up at the end of the night though, when they took a photo together in front of the restaurant and Matt, you said you touched her waist, did she touch your grappling hook in return or was there a kiss or any sort of sign of intimacy. Well, a true hero keeps his belt on at all times. But I did get to touch your waist and it was pretty awesome. Okay, yeah, you've done a lot of these, Matt, Like, what do you think went wrong? Why is she not calling you back? I don't know. I think maybe because I didn't know about the roles and individual pieces. Maybe that, okay, we're off. Maybe she thought I was trying to show off. You didn't explain it was your first time at a sushi restaurant. No, you know, I was just trying to be mister cool. Okay, yeah, yeah, okay, what's Let's just call Jackie and see if that really was the case, if she was intimidated by how many roles you can afford in one dinner. I mean I still have some. So she wants sushi, I'll throw that in at the end. We want to send you guys out on a date, but first we got to call her. Let's do it. Hello, Hi, I'm looking for Jackie. Ye, Hey Jackie. My name is jeff from a radio show called Brooke and Jeffrey in the Morning. Hi, Jackie. Oh there's lots of people. Hi. Everyone whole show wanted to talk to you. Oh. We love people that are happy right off the bat. That's awesome. Some breath of fresh air for us because we're doing something called a second date update and oh yeah, it sounds scarier than it is. We're calling because you went out on a date with one of our listeners I would call a good friend of the show. Yeah, I mean he's honestly a VIP member of our listening audience. His name is Matt. Oh yeah, yeah, okay, Matt. Like hearing you laugh about it because we heard you guys had a great sushi date the other night. It was an experience. That's good. I mean, if I saw it was an experience, I'd give that a five stars. That's a good thing, like IMAX calls themselves an experience, right, And for the most part, yeah, some of it was a little quirky, but yeah, it was all. It was all pretty fun. Oh why calling him back. He's been trying to get a hold of you. He wants to see you again. Well, at the end of the night, okay, so we took a picture of us, which was a little different for a first date. But I think if we know anything about Matt, it's that he's he's a bold man and he goes for what he likes and that he just really w wanted to commemorate the night with you right right. And it was a really cute picture. Um. And so when I got home, I showed my roommate the picture and she was like horrified. Why I guess, Like, so we had one of his like hands was like, you know, like around my waist, right, and he said that he was making like a gang sign like with his hand, and I don't know, like like what like throwing west side up. Okay, I don't know. I had no idea what it was, and I kind of thought she was getting at first, but she like had us look it up. And I'm not gonna say, like what it was, but yeah, it was. It was like it was a gang sign and yeah, like a street gang. Is that what you're saying? Like, yeah, it was. It was like an actual street gang, like a famous street gang. What's up? I had no idea Matt was in a gang like that is Are you sure it couldn't have been something he did on accident that happened to be similar. That's what I was trying to like say to her, but she was like no, like she was so sure, and she kind of freaked me out. So I I was like, I'll just play it face just in case. So I was just like, no, thank what if he's like an O gang member, We have no idea, That's what I'm saying. I just want to ask him right now because I gotta let you know, Jackie, Matt is on the other line right now. Oh no, a gang Now I'm in trouble gangs? Don Matt? Are you there? Yeah? Oh my god? Like gang signs? Do you really think I'm a gang banger? It was my roommate. She freaked me. HATTU even like seriously, like do I look like a gang banger? Do I sound like that? Stereotype. Matt, do you know what she's talking about? What hand signal she's talking about? Yes, yes, I do it all the time. Yeah, purpose why would you do it all the time if you know it's a gang symbol Matt. It's not a gang symbol. It's the bat symbol, Jackie, like Batman. Is that what you're saying? Yeah, Jackie, you might. I didn't tell you this mostly for your safety, but right, that's what that sounds like. No, the gang that he's talking about is like a superhero league, that type of gang, what like D and D no Justice League. I'm a Hugeman fan. I'm part of the bat family. It's not a gang. Yeah, loves Batman. Yeah, he's He's a big Batman family. I mean I knew that, but I know a lot of people who are like into that stuff and they don't have like weird hand symbols, and like I do think a gang member is hotter. But it's like it's like a sign I'm trying to make popular with my posse, Like I guess you know you made it up. Oh you know, I'm I'm trying to get it started, you know, like because my hand is like the wig and then if I move my thumb, it's kind of like the head. Yeah. I kind of like that. That way you can be out on the street and secretly know who else is a Batman fan, rather than having to go up and ask like a gang. Yeah flash it when you're walking down the street and you're like with my feet the same time I'm with Tosane this one. You gotta drop it. It's in trouble. It's already getting you in trouble that not someone sees that in the wrong neighborhood, not even a joke. Yeah, I have to actually defend your woman just because you're being a silly or you become the coolest guy in that neighborhood. Just strip cred. I like it, but I mean I don't want to get I don't want to get beat up. I doubt anybody could beat up Mattman. You're just being nice. Who's matt Man? Is that you? So? I didn't mean to out there? Yeah, we call him Matman. Oh yeah, that's my secret identity. Blow now, Well he's popular. Yeah, he makes us laugh a lot. Jackie sweet, No, he absolutely were making me last the whole time, that's all it was. Well, that's great. I mean, if you take out the hands signal, it sounded like you guys had a really good night together. And I mean, yeah, minus him not really being able to parallel park that well. Actually there's a funny story to that. He told me it was a joke, but I don't know. After like the fourth or fifth time, I was like, I don't know, maybe you drive to the next date. Yeah, I think that might be best, and we'll pay for that date if you agree to go on it. Yeah, that's fine. All of these secrets are not gang related and sounds great. All right, Okay, congratulations matt Man. One request though, if we get to she again, please don't order so many roles. I don't think that was necessary. I just thought the roles were I mean, it's like a bread roll, isn't like just say yes, Matt, yes, Matt, all right, you know what, We're just going to call it a win. Good job and Jeffrey in the morning, And I'm really happy that we were able to get another date from Matt Man. I liked her a lot too. I think they could be a really cute couple. Yeah, she was actually pretty chill. Honestly, that was maybe one of the easiest second date updates we've ever had to do for him before. All it takes is calling into our show four times for us to get good at helping you out. You know, the bat signed gang sign mix up. That one's actually pretty easily explainable. Yeah, I really stop doing that. Yeah, honestly, I think if we would have stayed on the phone with her longer, the more likely she would have and ultimately said no. The more that she learned, you know, about him dressing up like a superhero, going to the movies, hanging upside down from pipes and dark alley ways. Yeah, that's where it could have gotten weird. But luckily we didn't bring any of that up. Didn't have time too, So I'm proud of us himself. Yeah, good at that he just did again. I'm hoping she's done and no matter what, best of luck, Matt's a good guy. If you want to be like Matt and email the show over and over and over for help, We're always here. We'll call that person who wasn't calling you back.
