You should be. Do them a lot. Where we try to help people figure out why they're getting ghosted after a date and then also try and get them another chance. Right. Now, I'm sure a lot of people might hear us doing that kind of selfless work and they'll call us heroes. Oh, I don't know that they've ever done that. Well, if not heroes, maybe love gurus. No.

Patron saints of one night stands. Closer. Whatever you call us. Our job really isn't complete unless the couples we connected actually make it the distance. Really? You think so? Yeah, that's our goal. I mean, it doesn't feel that great to get, like, one more date out of them,

but if we're able to, like, actually help them build a relationship, that feels good. It is pretty amazing. That's why occasionally we like to check back in with our listeners and see where they're at with a second date update update. I love these. Dude, and people love these. They request them all the time. I just can't wait until we get a baby announcement.

That's what I'm waiting for now. Yeah, they name it Brooke or Jose. Yeah. So, you know, that's what we're going to do today. We're going to check in with one couple who was on with us a few weeks ago. And they had one of the craziest first date experiences we've ever heard on the show. But we're going to play their original second date call first. And then we'll speak to them and find out how things are going immediately afterwards.

It's coming up in your second date update update right now 92.5 second date update we got an email from a guy named logan for a second date update and he says his first date was a murder mystery dinner i've heard about those then he says, things didn't go so well. Okay. So obviously when he says things didn't go well, it must mean she was murdered. No, dude. It's pretend, Jeffrey. Or perhaps just maybe she was the murderer. The audience gasping is not helping our cause

right now. I don't know. I think I'm murdering this intro right now. You are killing it. I don't know if that's in a good way or not. It makes all of you accomplices to murder. Yes! You would be the worst villain ever.

Will you stop? I'm going to lose my breath here. Okay? Let's keep going. All right, let's continue and talk to Logan. Logan, before we begin the second date investigation. Oh, that's what it is. Just tell me, is there blood on your hands? Oh, come on. Almost.

Murder! It's a gas! Tell us about the girl you want us to call today. What's her name? Her name's Sabrina. So I want to know, how did you guys end up at a murder mystery party? So we have some mutual friends. They knew we were both single.

They set us up. Okay. And this was right around the time my friends and I, once a year, we do this big murder mystery. Wow. There's like 20-something people. We get it catered. We rent this big old house. We decorate it.

So Logan and his friends are rich. Yeah. I don't know. We rent this big old house. We decorate it. So Logan and his friends are rich. Yeah. I don't know. We're all chipping in. You know, there's an open barn. Yeah, rich. Open barn. I want to get in with your dorky friends, Logan.

So how did the murder mystery dinner date go? Not so great. Okay. So there was mutual friends at this thing. So I thought, you know, she wouldn't be completely by herself in a group of people. Yeah. And the whole thing was 1940s themed. So when she showed up, I mean, she looked spectacular.

Like, she went all out. She really got into it. Like, the hair, the makeup, the outfit. And, like, she looked gorgeous. Dude, and it's awesome that she went all in, right? Yeah, I thought that's a really good sign, right? And a good sign that she knew other people there because it would be pretty intimidating if you didn't

know anyone, but... Yeah, exactly. I was trying to be, like, you know, thoughtful about that. Okay, so why do you say things didn't go well? So, I don't know if you guys have been to one of these before. You've got a packet, and it's got, like, information about your character because you're, like, pretending to be somebody. She and I were joking about, like, about like oh come on what does your packet say you know like jokes it was fun yeah and

then like sometimes you'll have an accent or you'll you know like you're supposed to get fully into character so you're like acting it sounds hard this is fun it is a little hard you have to like read a whole thing and then and you have to become a character you have to remember all the facts about yourself like where you're from, who you're associated with, who you know, who you don't know. So, you know, it's sort of like live action Clue. Yeah. And so she was getting really into it, which was fun.

We were having a really good time. And then suddenly the lights go off. Oh! Was that planned? Someone didn't pay the electric bill, obviously. Is it part of the show or what happened? It was definitely part of the show. They're out for a few seconds. Then they come back on and she's gone.

And my first thought is she ditched me. Oh, what? Yeah. And I was like, oh, this can't be happening. We all hear a scream from upstairs and we run into the bedroom and there she is dead. Oh, no. She was the first one to kick the bucket in the game yeah my friends who were in charge of putting out the packets i don't know what they were thinking they gave her the first victim card you know i felt really bad obviously

because i wanted to have fun solving the mystery with her right that was like the whole purpose of this date and now honestly you can't even really hang out with her. You can't just like hang with the body while everyone's around and just whisper. Well, I kind of did. I was in there and then like other guests were coming in and they were like drinking and like eating hors d'oeuvres like around her. And like she was there for like an hour and a half. Oh, my God.

I know. I know. Wow. At first I think it's like, oh oh she's such a good sport yeah and then like i said an hour later people found clues they solved the crime we all go back downstairs to like you know okay we solved it now let's just have a good time and she was like i gotta go and i was like oh you know i'm so sorry this is not how i wanted to go and i said i'll go too we can go get a drink just the two of us and she said no no i had a good time don't worry but you know, I'm so sorry. This is not how I wanted to go. And I said, I'll go too. We can go get a drink, just the two of us.

And she said, no, no, I had a good time. Don't worry. But you know when somebody says that and you know they're not telling the truth? Yeah. Right. I had a great time laying on the floor for two hours. Can't wait to do it again.

I mean, I would be pissed at your friends if I was you. Yeah. Oh, I am. But they said, oh, it's the luck of the draw. But I don't know. I feel like they could have, like, they knew the situation. Yeah. Oh, I am. But they said, oh, it's the luck of the draw. But I don't know what to do. I feel like they could have, like, they knew the situation. Yeah.

You could redraw. I feel like we can resuscitate this date. Get it? Get what I did there? Yeah. No, but really, like, it isn't your fault. You didn't do anything bad,

it sounds like, and she should give you another shot. I would like that. I would like your help. So have you spoken to her since your date? No. Nothing. How long has it been?

It's been a couple of weeks. Hmm. Okay. Well, my friends, it seems we have a mystery afoot. Who murdered Miss Sabrina? Oh my God. What was the motive? And why would she ditch Sir Logan without a proper shagging in the conservatory?

Why do I feel like I suddenly need to scream? We'll get to the bottom of these questions and more after we play a song. Come back. Thank you. And call Sabrina and try and get you your second date update. All right, Sir Logan. Awesome. Thanks, guys.

Okay, hold on. Your date dying in the first 15 minutes of the night. Yeah. It's not good. I'm laughing, but you'll see why. We don't hear that a lot on these second date updates. Never was. I hopefully never again, either. That's what happened to Logan.

He showed up for dinner with a girl named Sabrina. Within minutes, she was dead. Come on, don't say it like that. Tell them the truth. Okay, I should probably clarify. This was a murder mystery dinner. And her character was randomly chosen to be the first victim of the night. So she was, quote, murdered and had to lay on the floor for the next hour and a half until the game was over.

So Logan feels terrible about how that played out, and he wants a second chance at a real date. Yeah. So, Logan, I don't know why this is running through my mind, but were you more attracted to her when she was alive or dead? What? Why would that be the question? Definitely when she was alive.

Okay, good. Everyone has their weird kinks, so I don't know. Yeah, that's right. I mean, I never asked, were you able to have any conversation with her when she was a corpse? Yeah, I mean, we did, but as the hour or so went on, kind of stopped wanting to talk. Okay. Understandably.

She became more corpse-like as the time went on. Yeah. She's like a super. She's really in character. It's really admirable. I think she's getting more and more angry. Okay, yeah. Well, hopefully she's cooled off and that she's ready to, I don't know, talk.

Cooled off like a dead body, bro? Talk to us. Yeah, I sure hope so. I'm hoping that you guys can work your magic. All right. We're going to dial the phone number right now and try and resurrect your second date update, okay? All right. Sounds good, guys.

All right. Here we go. Hello? Hi, can I speak to Sabrina, please? This is Sheep. Hi, Sabrina. My name is Young Jeffrey, and I work for the morning radio show

Brooke and Jeffrey in the Morning. Do you have a moment to talk with me? Can you tell me, like, what this is about? Well, we do a segment on the show about true crime murders. And we heard that you were recently killed. What? Oh, my gosh. Why did you let him ask the question?

Is that true? Were you killed recently? Wait, what is happening yeah most dead bodies we call are usually confused i see what you're talking about now jeffrey i'm sorry sabrina okay what we're really doing is something called a second date update that's where if you go out with someone and afterwards they're not calling you back, you can reach out to us and we'll call the person for you to try and figure out the reason why. Oh, okay.

So to tie it back in with the killing and the murdering, you recently went out with a guy named Logan. Yes. Yeah. Yeah. That's a weird answer. Yeah. We heard about the murder mystery party yeah so logan feels a little bit bad about how that all went down dude he feels so bad that you got killed in the first 15 minutes of the party that was terrible yeah it wasn't good It was a pretty big bummer If it makes you feel any better

I hear that you make a lovely corpse That's like an insult It's not though Because for real, your patience to lay there And just continue to play along For an hour and a half I applaud Well, I didn't want to like

Screw up their game, so I was just following the rules, going by the packet. That's nice of you. But it did screw up your date a little bit. Yeah. It was a little weird. But why didn't you want to hang out with them after the game was over? I mean, I realize that you may have been a little angry

laying on the floor for an hour and a half, but. It just didn't feel like it was gonna work out see i kind of i have some good information and i know that i was meant to die at that party like they didn't want me to hang out with logan no one wanted me someone didn't want me to get to know him what you're saying that someone killed you on purpose? Yeah. Logan said that it was chosen at random. I mean, sure. But no, it wasn't.

I feel like we have our own personal murder mystery now. I know, the mystery deepens. Who really killed her? Who killed her chances? Why do you think that? So, I don't know how much y'all know, but I had some friends at the party already. And so at the end of the night, like, I talked to them and see what was up. And Logan, he was in this long-term relationship for a while.

And his ex did not want me there when she found out I was coming with him. And he wasn't there there but she got the host to kill me off oh my god she put like a fake hit on you yeah pretty much are you sure so his ex girlfriend told the host to kill you off early to ruin his date yeah that is diabolical man but still that's not his fault I mean that's the crazy ex's fault right yeah but still like that's pretty crazy to do that to your exes someone that they're just hanging out with like you're just gonna put me on ice for like an hour and a half i don't know it's like another level of petty that i am not prepared to deal with now Wow. Man, I'm wondering how Logan feels.

I'm sure he didn't know any of this. Oh, he's going to be pissed. Because, Sabrina, we didn't tell you, but Logan's been on the other line listening, and he wants to talk to you. Are you serious? Uh-huh. Yeah.

Logan? God, I had no idea that she did that. I am so sorry. Yeah, I mean, but she did, and it really wasn't cool. I'm so sorry. Yeah, I mean, but she did, and it really wasn't cool. I'm just letting you know. And I agree with you. That was not cool. She is not happy

that I broke up with her. I'm the one who ended the relationship. She is trying to get back at me. I'm so sorry. I mean, you're saying get back at you, but I think she still, like, wants to get with you. She can think whatever she wants. It is not happening. I mean, you're saying get back at you, but I think she still, like, wants to get with you. Yeah.

Uh-huh. Sounds like that. She can think whatever she wants. It is not happening. So you're for sure over her, Logan? Oh, my God, yes. Yeah. This is just one of many things in a long list of reasons why we are not together.

And I was, like, hoping to, you know, meet somebody who is a good person and doesn't try to ruin people's lives. I mean, that makes me nervous. What else is she capable of? I mean, you probably don't know this, but she found my Instagram and she liked all of my photos on it. That's like another level of unhinged. Maybe you take really good Instagram photos, though, and she's just a fan. Oh, my God. I'm actually more freaked out about the Instagram likes than I am about her killing you at a party.

Isn't that weird? I thought that was innocent, but finding her personal pages? Yeah. Oh, man. It's pretty sadistic. Yeah. I mean, I don't know what to say to that. Like, you're right.

She is not well, but she's not going to actually try to kill you. Okay, well, you say that, but she's literally already killed me. Fair point. Oh, man. I mean, the only thing is Logan actually sounds like a really nice guy. And, you know, people have some crazy exes. I mean, if anything, it proves that he's very lovable. Does it?

I don't know. I think so. I agree it proves that he's very lovable. Does it? I don't know. I think so. I agree. I agree with that, Brooke. His ex really likes him? I mean, yeah, like, if his ex is willing to go through this much of a project just to, like, sabotage him, it must mean that he's really, really great. Yeah, I guess I never thought of that. Well, with that in mind, I would

love to send you guys out on another date. We'll pay for it. I mean, if you don't say yes, then his ex is probably just going to wear your skin and go out with him anyway. The ex is a bit of a turnoff, but I know he didn't know anything that she was doing, and I know that he feels really bad about it. He was clueless. So wait, what? What's your answer? So is that a yes or a no? I mean, as long as I am not coming back

to my apartment with a dagger in the door with a note saying, don't date Logan. But maybe we should give it another chance. Yes. All right. Congratulations, Logan. You got a second date. Thank you guys.

Sabrina, thank you so much for agreeing to that. Yeah, sure, Logan. You got a second date. Thank you, guys. Sabrina, thank you so much for agreeing to that. Yeah, sure, Logan. Let's just make sure that wherever we go next, it's safe. Yeah, bodyguard. Yeah, that's not a bad idea. Maybe hire one. Yeah, it'll be safe. We can go to my house and do the one-on-one murder mystery.

Oh, my God. Is that pretty easy to figure out who the killer is if there's only two of you? Well, I think it sounds good. There's going to be a stabbing going on a little later. Oh, all right. Lucky you, Sabrina. Moving 92.5.

A lot of times after a second date update, we'll send out emails asking couples if they have any news on their situation. Yeah, for sure. But this time, they reached out to us. Oh, they did? Saying they had an update that they wanted to share so they're back again sabrina and logan welcome back you guys wow hi

people don't want to come back i know that i mean that has to mean something positive is happening in your life right yeah yeah so what what's happened since we spoke to you did you guys go out again yeah we did we gave it another shot we went out again but we had like a issue trying to go on our first date what what do you mean so we were driving to a restaurant and his ex-girlfriend was essentially like tailing us like following us no way she turned into like a legit stalker yeah like i could see her car in the rear view mirror as we were driving and oh my god so we tried to get rid of her got out of the car walked a bit got an uber took that someplace random shut up got another uber and then took that to the restaurant where we had the reservation oh my, my God. To an undisclosed location in the desert.

And she still showed up. Yeah, she was your server. That would have been funny. But no, we fully lost her and had an amazing time. Wow. And it only took you four hours to get back to your car at the end of the night. Well, it sounds like you guys have chemistry right now.

Does that mean you're a thing? Are you dating? Are you official? Are you hiding in a bomb shelter? Not quite, but, yeah, we've been dating. It's been weird, I mean, with, like, his ex-girlfriend, but it's kind of been exciting, honestly, to, like, have to sneak around a little bit, make plans.

Like, you never know what she's going to try next. I feel like you're cheating on each other. You're into this? It's kind of fun. It's exciting. I don't know. I agree. It's added a level of excitement. It's like an excuse to role play. Is that what you're doing?

I mean, fear is somewhat of an aphrodisiac, so I can see how it would work for you guys. Congratulations, I guess. Yeah, I hope you guys invite her to the wedding and have to dodge her somehow. We'll be careful. Okay. Well, thanks for the update, you guys.

Keep letting us know. If we don't hear from you in the next few weeks, we're going to get worried. For real. Okay. All right. All right.
