Second Date Update.

A truly romantic person can make a date night out of literally any situation.

Oh, that's nice.

And that's why for their third wedding anniversary, Brooke and her husband emptied the septic tank together at her parents' log cabin.

Wow.

Which set the mood just right. Yeah. I hope you didn't go rolling around in the mud, if you know what I mean. Get your waiters on, honey. It looks like there's a clog. And that's how her son, Alder, came to be. Oh, that's good to know. Don't ever tell him that story, though. They'd be matched to the tree roots that were causing the problem.

That's right.

One of our listeners, Jeremy says he came up with a pretty unique date idea that he doesn't think has ever been done before.

And I'm wondering, Jeremy, was raw sewage involved in your date night, or are you not as romantic as Brooke is?

Maybe not as romantic as all that. We'll get there someday. That's a good thing. Good to aspire. But tell us about the lady that you met. What's her name? Sure. Her name's Tessa. We met through a dating app. Okay. Like a lot of people my age do now. How long did you guys, like, text or DM before you met up? We were, like, talking for about, like, three to four weeks. Oh, a long time. So we're on the app. I've been single for a little bit. And we really connected over true crime podcasts. I'm really into it. A lot of people are into that. Okay, so not so much like raw sewage as like human blood and internal organs. See, I think it's still stuff from inside humans. It's still sexy in a way. I think it's gross. Yeah. Oh, that's that weird. Oh, that's great. Interesting. Okay. So you both bonded over true crime. Okay. How do you make a date out of that, though? Are you going to listen to a podcast together? Actually, that's where this is going. So, you know, since we're both into true crime, I have this idea of, like, why don't we just go to the courthouse, you know, and, like, just in on, like, actual trial. Oh my God. Oh, my gosh. You know, real trials are real boring. Alexis, uh, just first thought, guy wants to take you to a courthouse. Sexy or no? Not sexy. No. What if the guy's a lawyer?

I was going to say rich guy wants to take you. Like, am I into it? Like the drama? You know? Like, I don't need to know. Do you know the person on trial? I don't know. I mean, what was it like? Well, it was actually really boring. Yeah. Oh. How long did you guys stay? We sat in on one trial and it wasn't like, obviously, like a murder case or something really huge.

It was just... How long did you guys stay? We sat in on one trial and it wasn't like obviously like a murder case or something really huge.

It was just domestic assault kind of thing and that was boring. Oh my gosh.

No, it's depressing.

Yeah.

Like you're on a first date talking about relationships and then you're seeing the worst of the worst.

But another relationship.

On the bright side, it makes you look really, really good as an option romantic.

It's like, at least it couldn't be that bad.

At least I'm on this side of the jail cell, right?

You stayed through the whole thing?

We like hopped around, you know, like we actually sat in another one.
