FunTranscript
00:00What's up, it's J.R. Alana. We have no idea why we're standing like this, but it kind of has to do with the 715 Second Date Update, because it has to do with heights.
00:08Yeah, uh, she didn't like them.
00:10She didn't like them, but it wasn't like she was standing on the edge of something, but it had to do with something else.
00:15You'll see what we're talking about and what her deal breaker was.
00:19I'm Superman.
00:20Now we are trying to help out Drew on the 715 Second Date Update.
00:25Uh, he said, he's been better. I feel bad for the guy.
00:28Yeah.
00:28He's super bummed.
00:29Anna was his date, and they went to Whiskey Joe's.
00:33He thought they had a great time.
00:34Yeah.
00:35He said she's different than any other girl he's been on a date with.
00:38He's called her normal.
00:39Normal.
00:40Then he reached out to ask her to do something, and she hasn't responded back.
00:43All right, we've got to figure out what's going on with Anna and why he's getting the runaround here.
00:47Hello?
01:01Hello?
01:02Hi, is this Anna?
01:04Yes.
01:05Hey, Anna.
01:05Good morning to you.
01:06Hope you're having a great day so far.
01:08This is J.R.
01:09Alana and Kevin over here at 99.5 QIK.
01:12We're a Tampa Bay's morning crew, and we wanted to see if you had a couple minutes to talk to us.
01:17Would that be all right?
01:17Morning.
01:18About what?
01:19What do you mean?
01:21There's no way to make it sound normal when you call someone like that.
01:23No, uh-uh.
01:25I don't want you to be freaked out, but we wanted to talk to you actually about a date you recently went on.
01:31We're talking about a guy named Drew.
01:33Would it be okay if we talked to you on the air just for a couple minutes?
01:36I mean, yeah, yeah, sure.
01:38All right, cool.
01:38Thank you so much.
01:39What do you want to know?
01:40Well, here's what we want to know.
01:41I will tell you this.
01:42He said nothing but great things about you, so no worries there.
01:46And we heard about your first date.
01:47We heard you guys had a great time.
01:49I guess you guys talked about a second date.
01:51You seemed excited in his mind about that second date.
01:54And then he invited you to come over to Gulfport.
01:57And I guess you have not gotten back to him since that invitation.
02:01And we just want to know what's going on.
02:03Why are you not getting back to him?
02:05I mean, yeah, he's a nice guy.
02:08Whiskey Joe's was really cool.
02:09I love it there.
02:10But honestly, just like logistically, it's really not going to work out.
02:14So I just kind of, I guess I ghosted him.
02:18I don't know.
02:19Yeah, but we're trying to figure out why.
02:20Yeah, what do you mean by logistically?
02:23Yeah, I mean, honestly, I don't really go to Pinellas County.
02:26I really do not.
02:28Like, there's just no reason for me to ever go there.
02:30I don't have friends there.
02:32But he drove to you for the first date?
02:34Yeah, that was really nice of him.
02:35I appreciate that.
02:37But I'm never going to go to Pinellas County.
02:39I do not go over the Skyway Bridge at all.
02:42So, you know, I don't want to drive over that thing.
02:44It's way too scary.
02:46It's high.
02:47I mean, they shut that thing down when it's windy.
02:48It's literally held up by cable.
02:51So it's just not something I feel comfortable doing.
02:55Well, I mean, I think like thousands of cars go over it every single day, right?
02:58Millions probably, yeah.
03:00So you just, you never go to Pinellas?
03:01Like, you don't go to the beach over there?
03:04No, no.
03:05Clearwater Beach?
03:06Nothing?
03:06Is this a thing, though?
03:07No, I really just never find the need to go there.
03:11Anna, is this like a heights thing for you?
03:13I'm confused.
03:14I definitely don't like heights.
03:17Huh.
03:17But I didn't know this kind of like went over to the car situation.
03:21I mean, I remember when I first moved here, I was deathly afraid to drive over that thing.
03:25You were?
03:25I was.
03:26Oh, yeah.
03:26I tried to avoid it, but I mean, I'm used to it now.
03:28Kevin, do you know people that avoid it because of that?
03:30I don't know personally anybody that will avoid it, but I know it is a thing.
03:35Really?
03:35It is super duper high up there.
03:36It's like 430 feet high or something.
03:39It's tall.
03:40Yeah, because the ship's got to go underneath it, but I've just never heard of someone avoiding it completely.
03:44Well, there's another way to go around, though.
03:46I mean, you can go around the other way.
03:47It takes a long time.
03:48It's like an hour and a half drive to go to.
03:50Where do you live?
03:51I live in Lakewood, Werenth.
03:53Oh, okay.
03:54And he lives in Gulfport, then?
03:55That's a far way.
03:56Yeah.
03:57You're not going all the way around.
03:58Lana, how do you say that?
04:00How can you put a distance on love, for crying out loud?
04:03Well, when the gas prices are the way they are, you can put a distance.
04:07All right.
04:07Well, come on now.
04:08That's way too long.
04:09Anna, we actually have Drew on the phone.
04:11He was wondering what was going on.
04:12I want to bring him back on because I feel bad for the guy because he really was into you.
04:16Drew, are you there?
04:18Yeah, yeah.
04:18I'm still here.
04:19I mean, it kind of blows my mind.
04:22Like, yeah, I heard that was a thing, but I don't know.
04:25You up for moving, maybe?
04:27No, Lana, come on.
04:28They've got to be meeting halfway or something.
04:29Well, maybe you can move.
04:31You don't move after a first date, really?
04:33No, but Drew, go ahead and talk to Anna.
04:35I don't know.
04:36That seems pretty wild to me.
04:38I just, I think that's kind of a ridiculous thing to keep us from seeing each other again,
04:43especially after how well that date seemed to go.
04:46I feel like it'd be super one-sided if I just kept driving over the bridge myself.
04:51Exactly, yeah.
04:52So I feel like it would never work if it's always you coming to me.
04:56I'm really just not going to go over that bridge.
04:58I wouldn't even go as a passenger, so.
05:00Wow.
05:01Really?
05:02It's not going to work.
05:03It's scary.
05:04Gosh.
05:04Okay, well, what have you guys avoided the bridge?
05:06You guys went the roundabout way, and you guys met halfway.
05:09I don't know.
05:10I think it's going to get old quick.
05:11Yeah, I mean, for me, so if I, I know, I'd be willing to try it, but it just, just seems
05:16like Anna doesn't have that, have that same desire, so I don't know.
05:21I mean, I have avoided that bridge all my life, so it's not going to start now.
05:25Huh.
05:26Scary.
05:27I mean, like, my whole family is, like, against it.
05:29You know, listen, I know everybody has their fears, but this just seems crazy.
05:32If he's a good dude, and there's no way that maybe you'd even try to go the roundabout
05:37way one time to, to see this guy again.
05:41I don't know.
05:41I just, I think it might be a waste of time, since in the future, I'm never going to go
05:45over that bridge, and we'll never work.
05:48God, a waste of time.
05:49Okay.
05:50Okay.
05:51Yeah, I think I heard what I need there.
05:54Yeah, Drew, I'm with you, dude.
05:55Anna, I think you're-
05:56Sorry, man.
05:56Yeah, I'm with you, man.
05:57You've got your fears, and that's fine, but yeah, that hurts a bit, but-
06:02No, I think, 100%.
06:03You did what you had to do.
06:04You went over there, and if that's her deal, she doesn't want to come back, I'm totally
06:09with you, man.
06:10Well, Anna, I guess I could appreciate your honesty.
06:12Thank you for that, and I appreciate you coming on with us today.
06:16Drew, just keep doing your thing, man.
06:17Keep dating.
06:18You're going to find somebody, I guess, literally, on the right side of the bridge for you.
06:22I guess I'll put that on my profile now.
06:24There you go.
06:25Okay.
06:26All right, man.
06:26Thanks a lot.
06:27All right.
06:28You bet.
06:29All right, thanks, guys.
