Second Date Update. You know, Halloween is a time for costumes, for candy, and for love. Is it? There's just something about it that brings couples together. I always thought of it more of a hookup holiday, but that's just my opinion. It's the only time of year you'll ever see Tinkerbell go into second base with a Ninja Turtle. That's the romantic power of Halloween.

And one of our listeners got caught up in the spark of Halloween. Her name's Melissa, and in her email, it's kind of interesting, she said she never actually went on a date with this person. Now, Melissa, we want to help you, but you've got to tell us a little bit more about the situation. What's

this guy's name? Well, his name is Carl, and I felt a little weird about reaching out to you What's this guy's name? Well, his name is Carl. And I felt a little weird about reaching out to you guys because it's not necessarily a second date update. It's more of, I guess you would say, like a misconnection. Okay. So where did you? Yeah. That's from Craigslist.

But I'm glad you're not there. I'm glad you're with us instead. Right. Where did you meet Carl? I met him at a pumpkin patch, actually. Okay. With my nephew. That's a romantic spot. pumpkin patch, actually. Okay. With my nephew. That's a romantic spot.

Wait, what? Your nephew? With her nephew. Oh, with her nephew. Oh, okay. Sorry, I did not hear that. Okay. So I was trying to say pumpkin patch is a romantic place to go. He really was dressed like a ninja.

Yeah, I know. Okay. So how does Carl come in? Well, it was kind of weird because I wasn't originally going to go to the pumpkin patch. I had a really busy day, but my nephew kept bugging me. He really, really wanted to go. So I decided right before the pumpkin patch closed that I would take him. Dude, that's a perfect time to go to because then you're like, oh, sorry, we have to go.

They're closing in 10 minutes. Can't stay any longer. I was like, oh, let's get this over with really quickly. Or you just drive out to a field anywhere and be like, oh, they're all in 10 minutes can't stay any longer i was like oh let's get this over with really quickly or you just drive out to a field anywhere and be like oh they're all out of pumpkins sorry let's go home auntie this looks like wheat okay so how did this go it went really good i like going late because there's less people the later you go and when we first got there there was just it was kind of empty There wasn't that many people there. But you know kids, they're so picky and they take forever. And he just wanted the absolute perfect pumpkin.

He wanted to go through the whole patch. So we're almost at the end of it at this point. And he still can't decide. He's complaining, this one isn't big enough. This one is a weird shape. This one's too green. Wow. You're like, oh my god, this is just like how I talk about my dating life. Typically, to be honest. So where does Carl come into the

picture? Yeah, but Carl came in to save the day. He was really good with my nephew and he just thought it was so funny. And he kind of at first thought he was my son. And I was like, no, no, he's not mine. So is Carl like another customer at the pumpkin patch? Yeah, that's what I'm wondering. No, he actually is a farmer. And he's like the typical looking farmer, you know. I don't know. He kind of reminded me of that guy on the paper towels, you know. Hot paper towel guy.

Brownie. Brownie. Brownie. Brownie, sorry. Brownie's a different paper towel so okay so uh brawny man came by to save the day at the pumpkin patch yeah we were one of the last people there, and we were way out, like, towards the end of it, and it was a long walk back to the farm where you have to, like, check out, and of course, my nephew

had to pick the absolute biggest pumpkin there was, and I could not carry it. I could barely lift it. Oh, that big? And Carl was nice enough to help out with that. Wow. And use his nice enough to help out with that and use his brawny muscles. Yeah. And I just thought it was so sweet

and he brought it all the way back to the farm and... Oh, that is nice. Yeah, I mean, we got a little flirty with each other on the way back when he was carrying the pumpkins and I don't know, I kind of felt like there was a connection there and I kind of regret like losing him in the shuffle before I checked out with someone else. And I don't know, I kind of felt like there was a connection there. And I kind of regret like losing him in the shuffle before I checked out with someone else.

And I don't know, I kind of I feel like there was good conversation. We definitely had chemistry and just I don't know, I'm still thinking about him. Wait, how did you get his phone number? Well, I don't have his number, but I do have the number of the farm, the pumpkin patch. What? You just want us to call the pumpkin patch and ask? You just wanted to call the pumpkin patch and ask for a hot guy in plaid? Yeah, I mean, basically. That's different.

Did you tell him your name? How would he remember you? He knows that my name is Melissa. But is there anything else? I mean, this guy sees thousands of kids probably every day. He can't be like, you helped us with the pumpkin? Oh, yeah. Remember with the obnoxious four-year-old nephew

who was not satisfied with anything? Yeah, the nephew who was not satisfied with anything. And I am a redhead, so maybe I stand out a little. Okay, redhead. That'll do it. This is so awkward. Why? So we're just going to call the pumpkin patch and say what?

Hey, it's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. We're looking for Carl. Hey, Carl, you want to go out on a date? Is that what we're doing? Well, something like that, I guess. Okay, well, I hope he's at work. Why? I don't know.

We don't know if he's single. We don't know if he's not single. I mean, I guess take a chance. That's what makes it fun. We'll find out. Exactly. Hey, hot Carl. That sounds like something you shouldn't Google.

I don't know why. That sounds like a drink I don't want. Oh, I Carl. That sounds like something you shouldn't Google. I don't know why. That sounds like a drink I don't want. Oh, I thought it was a sandwich. No? I don't know. Sounds dirty. All right. Well, I want to call one.

Okay. Call a hot Carl. Go find us a hot Carl. Let's find us a hot Carl. We're going to play a song. We'll come back. We'll call the pumpkin patch and ask to see if Carl's there. All right. Okay. That sounds good okay hold on if you're just tuning in for the second date update we're on the phone

with melissa who met a guy at the pumpkin patch recently his name is carl he in her words looks like the guy from the brawny paper towels. Just manly farmer type. Hot lumberjack. He helped her choose out a pumpkin and carry it back to the front desk to check it out. But after that, she kind of lost him, never got his phone number. So what she wants us to do is to call the pumpkin patch and ask if we could talk to Carl who works there. It's very romantic.

It is. I like it. Are you sure about this, Melissa? Oh, I'm 100% sure. Yeah, I feel like he definitely thinks we have a connection as well. But why aren't you calling? Like, why do you need us to do it? Well, honestly, I really love your show, and this is one of my favorite segments.

So, I don't know. I thought it was a good reason to call you guys. I'm glad. I like it. We've never done something like this. All right. And then you guys, you know, if it works out, then we have you to thank for helping us. Yeah. There you go.

I mean, I want to talk to Carl. He sounds like a hunk. He does sound like a hunk. But he has, like, this deep, husky voice. I do want to hear his voice. Okay, let's get him on the phone. Oh my God. I hope he remembers the redhead with the four-year-old nephew.

Yeah. I mean, don't be insulted if he doesn't remember you. Okay, Melissa? I'm serious. I think he'll remember me. Okay. All right. He meets a lot of people if he works at a pumpkin patch.

If for some reason he's like not into me or maybe he's seeing someone or married, I don't know. But I can hang up and you guys can just keep talking i see why you're using us okay i get it you're hiding behind us no you don't give up okay even if he is married just a roadblock hot carl is yours hot carl's only come around once in a lifetime you can't let that.

So I do have to ask, would you like to go out on another date with the spirit of Carl? The spirit of Carl? No, I am, like like literally petrified. We'll pay for it. I don't know if ghosts accept real money. They can carry pumpkins.
