In this episode of 'Intern John & Your Morning Show On-Demand,' the hosts tackle a second date dilemma involving Jordan and Kaya, who met while walking their dogs in the same neighborhood. After a successful first date at a Greek restaurant and a casual kiss, Jordan hasn’t heard from Kaya in two weeks. The mystery deepens when Kaya reveals on the air that she was turned off during their first date when Jordan picked her up with a lit candle—complete with an open flame—in the back seat of his car. The hosts and callers react with shock and concern, emphasizing the extreme danger of driving with an open flame, citing risks like fire, flying wax, and potential injury. While some jokingly romanticize the gesture as a 'symbol of love,' the overwhelming consensus is that it was reckless and inconsiderate. The episode ends with a mix of humor and cautionary advice, urging listeners to prioritize safety over romance.
Never drive with an open flame in your car—especially in the back seat.
A romantic gesture can backfire if it compromises safety.
If someone ignores your texts after a date, it's a red flag—not a sign to keep pursuing.
Physical safety should always outweigh symbolic gestures in dating.
Use air fresheners or scented products instead of candles for car ambiance.
