Brooke and Jubal's Second Date Update. Today's Second Date Update could go very well or very poorly.

Why this one? Because the dude that emailed us explained the date as the date of his life. Oh, no. Wow. Yeah. Oh, gosh. His name's Trevor. Trevor, what's up?

Yeah. How's it going, man? All right. How are you? Good. Your email that you sent us described the date that you went on as the date of your life. Yeah. It was like my life had turned into one of those ridiculous romantic movies, like Serendipity, you know, the John Cusack. I mean, it was just, it was insane.

I know. Okay. It sounds so corny, but it was. It was totally insane. Why don't you tell us about your rom-com date? I was at lunch with a friend at the Seattle Center, and I saw this girl. Like, she was eating lunch at another table. Trevor, I don't mean to stop you, but the way that you described it now,

everything you say, I've just got a scene from a movie in my head. There's violins playing in the back. So she was eating lunch at another table. She was eating lunch at another table, and she was probably the most beautiful woman I'd ever seen. She was gorgeous, and I couldn't hear her talking with her friend she was with, but every so often I would hear her laugh, she was just, it was, it was insane. Give the man a chance.

Trevor, I apologize. I'm not laughing at you. Yeah, he is. I understand because I feel a bit ridiculous, but it happened. You asked her out. I just decided, you know, what the heck. I went over and excused myself and said, didn't want to interrupt, but you are literally the most beautiful girl I've ever seen in my life.

It's kind of cute. I would love it if you would go out on a date with me. It's kind of cute. And she said yes. Well, she kind of laughed, and she said she was flattered, but she was only in town for a few days. And I said, that doesn't matter.

Let me take you for a night out on the town and show you what Seattle's all about. All right. So we set up a date for the next night. And we just went down to the Pike Place Market. The place was all lit up at night. And we had these little French pastries that are covered in powdered sugar. Oh, they're so good at the market.

So, of course, I get it all over my face. And she just laughs and she wipes it off my face. Dude. It's more adorable. Come on. Right there. That's a scene from a montage in a movie, man. I'm going to start writing this up and we're going to make royalties off this story.

So how did the date end? We ended just at a park and I was just feeling. And it was a clear night that night. So the stars are out. And I start getting a little corny. And I'm like, I have just, you know, feeling. And it was a clear night that night. So the stars are out. And I start getting a little corny. And I'm like, I have a full time. Stuck now? You continue.

I look, I try to carve our initials in a tree, which I'm a total failure at. But because my pen knife is like worthless. But of course, she thinks it's hysterical. Let me go back there for a second there, Trevor. One, you carry it's hysterical. Let me go back there for a second there, Trevor. One, you carry around a penknife. Two, you try to carve your initials in a tree on a first date. This is how amazing this girl is.

And she laughed. She was into it? She was into it. She thought it was cute and ridiculous. And to top it all off, I just jumped on top of the bench that we were sitting on. And I just announced to the world, I love this woman. You did not. You did the jewelry commercial thing where they're standing there and, I love this woman.

The Tom Cruise on Oprah's couch moment. More importantly, you used the L word. Because she was amazing. What did she say? What did she say at the end of the date? She said she had a great time and kissed me goodnight and then she went home. Vanished into the dark. I still feel

like you're screwing with us, dude. No! I swear, it was the most ridiculous date of my life. I sent her a message the next morning and I called and left her a message and she's not calling me back. Where does she live? She was from Detroit. She was in town from Detroit.

But the thing is, it was such an amazing night. I'm willing to go out to Detroit and see her. I'll go wherever she is. You get one shot at love. And he found the love of his life, told everybody at the park. You do realize Jubal's making fun of you right now, right? Not at all. Not one bit.

You know what? That's fine because it was the most ridiculous night of my life. And obviously it is fate. And I've just got to track this girl down wherever she is. Don't let our cynicalness get you down. I support you. Trevor's a listener. He knows.

I mean, at least you know that we were going to rip on you a little bit, right? Yeah. Yeah. I knew it was going to be for it. And I knew the story I was going to tell. So I just knew that it was just going to be never-ending. I'm excited to talk to her.

But it's worth it. I'm excited to talk to her. I'm excited to talk to her, too. She sounds like a wonderful, wonderful person. She may be the love of my life as well. Trevor, all right, we're going to call her right after this. Okay. And see if we can get her on the phone and ask her why she hasn't gotten back to you.

All right. Movin' 92.5. Brooke and Jubal in the Morning. Second date update. Okay, if you didn't hear the first part of the second date update, I'm not going to go into nearly as much detail as Trevor did about his date.

But Trevor met a girl named Alexandra who's from Detroit, actually. Showed her around Seattle. A couple of the highlights. Took her to a park park, tried to carve their initials on a tree, ended up jumping up on a bench in the park and exclaiming that he loved her after they kissed. Basically, like a romantic comedy, not even a romantic comedy, just a romance novel. Yeah. Would that be an OK description, Trevor?

Yeah, I'd say so. Now, Trevor, she's from Detroit, so you're totally willing to make a long-distance thing work. Absolutely. We're going to call her right now, get her on the phone, see if we can get an answer why she's not calling you back. And you can jump in whenever you want to talk to her.

Okay. Hello? Hi, can I speak to Alexandra, please? This is Alexandra. Hey, how are you? This is Jubal from Brook and Jubal in the Morning. I'm moving 92.5. I'm sure you probably have no idea who we are.

No. Okay. We host a morning radio show in Seattle. Okay. And we wanted to call you to ask you a couple questions about a mutual friend. Oh. When you were in town here in Seattle, you met a guy named Trevor.

Yeah. And you guys had a kind of an evening out together, right? Yeah. Oh my God. Things just get more intense with Trevor, don't they? We're calling to ask you why you haven't called Trevor back.

You're calling to ask me why I'm... This is weird. I know. Is it any weirder than your first date? Come on. Here's what this is. We do a thing on our show called the Second Date Update. We're basically just calling you to ask you

why you haven't gotten back to him. Oh, well, I mean, it's really hard. I'm in Detroit. Did you like him when you went out with him? Yeah, I did, I mean, it's really hard. I'm in Detroit. Did you like him when you went out with him? Yeah, I did. I mean, at first I was like a little bit, it's not what I'm used to, like someone being so intense so quickly. Yeah. Yeah. But, I mean, as long as he wasn't like 100% serious about jumping up and declaring his love on a first date.

Like if it was just kind of for fun, I had a really good time. But, you know, you say it's just because of long distance, but didn't Trevor make it completely clear that he would do anything to make this relationship work? Yeah, he did. But it was a first date. Yeah. If I lived in Seattle, maybe things would be different. I don't know. Alexandra, it's solely the Detroit-Seattle thing that you don't live here.

That's it. I would definitely, if I lived in Seattle, go out with him again. Okay. Alexandra, distance shouldn't matter. I know, but I like to stop. Alexandra, this is Trevor. Oh, hi. Hi. I didn't know that you were on. This is Trevor. Oh, hi. Hi.

I didn't know that you were on the phone, too. Oh, my God. Yeah, Trevor is on the phone. Trevor is smitten. Alexandra, I think you know, I had the best day. One night, it just can't be enough. There was something magical there. I know that sounds incredibly ridiculous to say, but I would move heaven and earth to have a second date with you right now.

Wow! Oh my God! Come on, Alexandra! Alexandra, you should see the faces of all, well, everybody in the room because we're all women. You should see the faces, though, of Brooke and Lydia, seriously melting. Now, is that too much for you, or did you find that romantic, too? I have to say,

I wish you could see my face right now, because I'm totally bright red. I'm so embarrassed, but that just touches... I don't know. I'm worried, Trevor, that you're going to maybe expect too much too soon, but how could I say no to, you know, no, no expectations, no expectations. If, if, if it was a fluke and our second date is like a complete disaster,

you'll, you'll never hear from me again, but it's just, it was just too, I mean, I know I came on super intense, and I jumped up on park benches and ruined trees, but it was just... I don't know. It was just such a crazy night. I just feel like you just can't let something like that just happen once. There's got to be more, and you need to go for it. Alexandra? Yeah? Do you believe in love at first sight?

I don't know. I used to think I did, and now I don't, but do you? I feel like I'm in the Twilight Zone right now. This is so weird. All right. I told these guys earlier, Alexandra, that I never even thought about it twice before. But when I saw you at lunch that day, I mean, I know it seemed like a line, but it was also true. You're the most beautiful woman I've ever seen.

And if I need to fly up to Detroit for a weekend to have a second date with you, then I will come out to Detroit. I don't know what will happen after that, but something has to happen. So, you know, whatever I need to do, I will make it happen because you are amazing and I want the second date. At the end of these second date updates, Alexandra, since you're not familiar, we always pay for the couple to go out again if they want to go out again. It'd probably bankrupt the radio station to pay for a plane ticket because we don't have a lot of money here.

We could buy dinner in Detroit. Come on. I was saying dinner. Yeah, plane ticket. I said we can't do it. If he can get himself out there, we'll pay for dinner. And in Detroit, with your economy, it's probably like five bucks anyway, right? It's like living in a developing country. But we'll pay for dinner. And in Detroit, with your economy, it's probably like five bucks anyway, right? It's like living in a developing country. Oh, that's so mean.

But we'll pay for dinner for you guys if he can come out there. Would you be interested if he flies out there to go out with him? Yeah, definitely. Oh! We have to get an update of how the second date goes on this one.

Oh, definitely. I think something could come of this. I really do. I'm not a love at first sight girl, but I'm an incredibly amazing attraction at first sight that can turn very easily into love type of girl. I now understand why romantic comedies do so well. Because people buy into them completely. But maybe every once in a while a romantic comedy is actually based on real life. It has to come from somewhere. It's not a romantic documentary.

Hey. Well, congratulations, you guys. Alexandra, now that you know that Trevor is going to come there, you guys have to sort it out and get back to us and let us know what happened after your date, okay? Okay. I'm kind of excited. I love love. Yeah, me too. Oh, God. Broken'm excited. I love love. Yeah, me too. Oh, God.
