You know, the great Wayne Gretzky once said, you miss 100% of the shots you don't take. Deep. Meanwhile, our social media coordinator, Alexis, said, I'm taking 100% of these shots.

Can't waste those. I think you missed the point of the... No, I got it 100% of these shots. Can't waste those. I think you missed the point of the... No, I got it. We're going to channel the energy from both of those quotes and funnel them much like a beer bong into this segment so we can get another date for our listener,

Dusty. Alright, just open your mouth up, throat up, and drink. Dusty, welcome to the show. Hey, how you doing? Good. You sound sober, so that's a good start, Dusty. Is it a good start? You guys don't even know.

Hopefully we will soon. Maybe it's a little bit more than alcohol that Dusty's been on this morning. But we want to help you out, Dusty. Tell us about the woman you went out with recently. What's her name? Her name is Courtney. Okay, we met online. Yeah, and she has a wet hair and everything like that Like I don't get it I don't understand why I'm attracted to that The wet hair like body

I that into the wet hair like just wet body in general it looks like your hair's still wet i've never looked cute with wet hair i'm just gonna let you know i get out of a pool and i'm like a drowned rat so good on her okay so courtney had wet hair in her picture and that turns you on how did you end up reaching out to her we texted a little bit and we like we kind of hit it off um nice i met at this restaurant and uh she didn have wet hair, but she was still kind of cute. I was anticipating. I think it was going to be fun. Okay. So how did dinner go?

It was great. We got into a couple TV shows that we started talking about and I really love Ghost Hunters, if you know the show. I've actually seen it. Here's a quick recap if you haven't seen it.

Oh my God, this room just got really cold. Yeah. Exactly. Did you hear that? Yeah. Oh my God, this room just got really cold. Yeah. Exactly. Did you hear that? Silence. We gotta go to commercial.

We gotta play back the tape a million times. It happens all the time and I believe in ghosts. I do, so it kind of freaks me out a little bit. Okay. How did Courtney feel about that conversation? She was a little light about it. She didn't really like get into it. And so I was like, I kind of went into this episode about this mental hospital that I

just watched and it creeped me out a little bit. Okay, so you weren't getting a vibe from her that she was interested, but you took a deep dive anyway. Super deep. I mean, I was trying to get her riled up a little bit. Oh yeah, nothing turns me on like talking about ghosts in a mental ward. Did you get her on your side? Did she come around?

She was intrigued, which ended up reminding me of this children's hospital in town that's abandoned. Oh, my gosh. Stop. Oh, my gosh. I was like,

I've been inside of that hospital and it freaks me out. It just, it was, it's overgrown and everything like that. It's really creepy. Oh, my gosh. No. Dude, the old hospital in my town

got turned into apartments. It was across the street from my house. Yeah. Dude, they have an old hospital in my town turn that turned into apartments. It was across the street Yeah Yeah, mine was just full of meth So what did you do with the children's hospital? So I asked her if uh, if she wanted to go check it out, and she did. You don't think she's afraid she's going to get murdered, like, right now by you? Yeah, I just met this guy on the internet.

Come to an abandoned children's hospital with me. No, like, she knew that I was, like, super into this, and I don't think she did. I think we hit it off very nicely. It's always good in this segment when we have to ask the question, do you feel like she might end up getting murdered? Do you feel like she might be afraid of that? That's how you know a date's going really well. And the guy goes, I don't think so.

You know. Come on, girl. Let's dunk your hair in a bowl of water and go to the children's hospital. Dunk your hair in a bowl of water. But here's the thing. Being scared with somebody can really bond you to somebody. It's not a bad idea. That's a good point.

You know, like, now you're going to have this shared experience together. A like-horrific children's hostel. How was the experience? It was good. We drove around. We found a parking spot, and we started walking around the building. On the grounds. It was completely pitch black.

There was one light in the rafters that was on in the foyer. And I thought, why is the light on? I have no idea. That wasn't on the last time that I was there. Sounds like make out type lighting for me. Sounds like send my location to my roommate and save me. So as we were coming around the corner, I wanted to go take a closer look. And so I kind of went around a corner in front of her and I stopped. I paused and she didn't she stopped.

She couldn't hear anything. And so she called my name and I was I was like, Courtney, I whispered. You didn't. She like she came around the corner and I popped out and I scared her. And that that might have been the thing that I'm thinking that might not be, you know, the reason why she's gone. She just didn't like that. She doesn't like being like jarred scared.

You know, she likes being like psychologically scared, but not like. Not a man jumping out of the bushes. Did she seem mad after that? Is that why you're saying that? Yeah. She kind of seemed a little pissed off. Yeah. She's quite trying to avoid that. Like, look, I'll a little pissed off. Yeah, she's like trying to avoid that.

Like, look, I'll go to this place and you just don't scare me. Dude, but you don't go without doing stuff like that. Like, that's the fun part of it. I love jumping out and scaring people. I mean, was that it for the children's hospital after that? So that was it. So we got back in the car. I drove her back to her car at the restaurant and then she left. And so

we've been texting for a little bit and that it's been fine, but nothing has really kind of sparked anything like that yeah you'd say you got ghosted hilarious so it's like it seemed like it was going really well and then it seemed like it wasn't and and so i've been apologizing over the text but she hasn't been like super receptive but i wanted i'm curious like if that was the reason why, then that was the reason why. Yeah. And it sounds like it's worth another shot and worth another date to see if you guys can. But like a normal date.

Yeah. Let's go to a graveyard. In like an adult's hospital. That's been a big update. We got to get the full spectrum here. So let's play a song. We'll come back. We'll call Courtney for you and we'll try and get you your second date

update. All right. Great. Thanks. Hold on. Second date update. Whispering voices. Flickering lights.

Dripping wet hair over a child-sized straight jacket. So wrong. We can explain. I don't know if it works for the guy on the phone, though. Some might call it spooky, but I call it love. Oh, gosh. Because that's what one of our listeners, Dusty, decided to do for his first date with a woman named Courtney. After spending a casual night at Chili's with some loaded potato skins,

they headed out to the abandoned children's hospital for a little fun. Oh, you want some baby back ribs? I mean, they were trying to be scared. I don't think they were trying to be sexy, Jeff. I know. The main thing to take away is Dusty popped out and scared

Courtney at the hospital. It seemed like she didn't like that very much. And so now the lover of ghosts, Dusty, is being dusted or ghosted. She's not getting back to him is what I mean. And we're going to reach out to her.

Jeff, you put a lot of work into that and I don't think you need to. Are you with us, Dusty? Yeah, that was great. I mean, the thing is you've already apologized for the jump out and scare. At this point, do you think that like, do you think that like do you think

she'll want to go out with you again i hope yeah look i mean if she does she does if she doesn't she doesn't i just want i'm curious i would just want an answer you know okay you like to solve mysteries like i told myself i was going to be unapologetically me and ghosts i love ghosts ghosts are my thing all right so that's the If she's like, he's a ghost nut, then you're not going to be upset, are you? No, not at all. Okay. All right.

Okay. Well, we're going to call her. We're going to try and get her to go out on a date with you, or else. Oh, God. Mwahaha. No, let's just see what she has to say. I'm going to dial her phone number right now.

You ready, man? Yeah. Okay, here we go. Hello. Hey, is this Courtney? It is. Now that's who I'm speaking with. Yeah, my name's Jeff from the radio show Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. How you doing? I'm fine. How can I help you today? Do you listen to the show ever, Courtney? I have never. I'm sorry. That's all right. We're a morning radio show and we do a segment here called the second date update. That's where if our listeners go out with somebody and afterwards, if that person isn't calling back,

they'll email us to reach out and help them figure out the reason why. Who wants to go on a second date with me? Oh, you don't know? Well, it's a guy that really likes you. His name's Dusty. Oh. Okay, there goes the excitement. That was a quick one.

Okay, well, I mean, Dusty told us about the date that you guys had. What did you think? Just her voice she keeps getting higher pitch what was going on uh through dinner that you didn't like he just was like going on and on and on about spirit hunters or oh ghost hunters yeah oh yeah he mentioned that to us that that TV shows came up, and he's really big into that one and just supernatural stuff in general. How did that make you feel? Yeah.

You know, I was interested. He had my ear. Okay. But then it kind of got creepy because, I mean, he suggested for us to go to, like, this abandoned kids' hospital. Right. He mentioned that, and you did end up going there with him. I mean, he felt

like the hospital was pretty fun up until he jumped out and scared you. He felt like maybe that took it a little bit over the edge. That really wasn't the deal breaker for me. It actually was when we got in the car. Oh, we didn't hear

about what happened in the car. Oh, he didn't tell you about that no um well yeah he had to drive me back to my car at the restaurant so the conversation got extremely weird uh he told me that he really really believes in ghosts and you know i kind of like laughed it off because you know all right obviously you do we're having children at this point you've spent hours talking about this like how is how do i not believe is there anything else to talk about yeah i mean we're just talking he's like you know you want to hear something really crazy and i'm like not really what did he say what'd you say courtney He proceeded to tell me that he had been in a relationship with a ghost.

What? You say in a relationship with a ghost? He said it was brief, if that makes me feel any better. Like a romantic relationship or like a... I honestly didn't want any details. He just took me to this hospital and I met him on the internet. I just wanted to get to my car. Yeah, because you're like, you're not supposed to talk

about exes on a first date, right? That is so weird. I mean, I would want to get the details if somebody says something crazy like that to me. Like, tell me more about what you mean. Does she have an Instagram? I don't know, man. You don't want to push it, Jeffrey. You just want to get out at that point. No, you need the

details so that you can make fun of them later when you're telling your friends about it. Okay. Yes. That's valid. Maybe record it. Yeah, I was just concerned that she maybe wasn't a ghost in the beginning of the relationship. Valid. Valid concern.

I need to tell you, Courtney, that Dusty's on the other line listening right now. Oh, no. He wants to talk to you. I love hearing this, Courtney. Do you? What? Are you sure, Dusty? It wasn't a rave review there.

No, no, no. And that's fine. That's okay. Like, if she's not game, she's not game. Like, Courtney, that's totally fine, you know? It was a pass fling, and... Wait, pass fling? She's not jealous, dude.

Like, Courtney, are you there? I don't want to be. Well, I mean, Dusty, you got to talk to her. What do you mean by you were in a relationship with a ghost? It wasn't even like a relationship. It was at my old apartment. Alice was haunting it. Alice?

She actually passed away in that apartment. That makes sense. Her name's Alice. Wait, did you know her when she was alive? No, I didn't. I didn't know her when she was alive. How do you know her name then? Because she told me.

And then I corroborated it with the old landlord. And you legally have to tell somebody if somebody has died in an apartment that you are taking over. Hold on. Hold over. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. You asked, a ghost told you its name and then you asked your landlord and they confirmed, yes, that was the person who died in that apartment. They confirmed it.

Oh, heck no. And then he said, you can stay here if you want to and I'd be happy to give you a discount. And I said, sure, why not? Oh. Wait a minute. That's crazy. But what is this relationship thing? Yeah.

It wasn't even a relationship. It was like we. What was it? It was just a simple hookup thing. She came on into my bed. I mean, you guys live together. It sounds kind of serious. I believe in ghosts.

I just, I can't buy this one. Are you, are you messing with us, Dusty? No, no, man. No, I'm not kidding you around. We just fooled with us, Dusty? No, man. No, I'm not kidding you around. We just fooled around. It wasn't super in-depth. What does it feel like kissing a ghost? How do you kiss a ghost, dude?

I'd love to walk in on someone. It feels very normal. What? Normal. So, Courtney, doesn't that make you feel better? He's just hooking up late at night with a ghost. It wasn't weird. Yeah, that's very normal, right?

Do you use ghost protection? Do you still live there? No, no. Who broke up with who? Who broke up with who? Who broke up with who? Good question. She wanted more than I was willing to.

She wanted an eternal relationship, I would imagine. I will say, that's a woman that you don't want to make mad. No, no, no. No, no, no no no i had to leave i had to go so you're being serious here dusty is there any proof that you can offer us he did the name thing brooke that's crazy to me that's i mean i i think it's just weird that you left that out of your story to us when we talked to you in the first part here you didn't mention anything about she didn't hurry courtney no offense but like your response to that was like oh that's interesting and then yeah i was afraid for my life she wasn't trying to throw any flags oh that is very normal yeah i mean the thing is

i will say dusty doesn't sound dangerous and also his defense, everybody has at least one crazy ex. Yeah. So Dusty just has a crazy dead ex. I just want to know, is it okay for me to get off the phone now? Well, no. We can't let you off until I ask you this question, Courtney, because we'd like to send you out on another date with Dusty, and we'll pay for that.

I'm sorry, Lusty Dusty. It's going to be a no, I think, Dusty. It's a no for me. That's okay. That's okay. I just wanted an answer. That's true. That's what he said.

So I do think, Dusty, that maybe you should, like, reserve the whole ghost hookup story for, like, I don't know, date five. That's fair. Like, maybe on the first first date it's too much to stomach. Maybe after Marriott. She's already locked in for life. Alright man, well no second date.

I really hope that Alice was not listening to this second date update. Oh, we didn't think of that. Does she have to have a radio on or can she just hear us? I'm sure she could just intercept the radio wave. So Alice, if you're listening to this, it was't think of that. Does she have to have a radio on or can she just hear us? I'm sure she could just intercept the radio wave. So, Alice, if you're listening to this, it was all Brooke's idea. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.
