Richard, grab a mic. How you doing here, man?

I should turn your mic on. There you go. How are you? I'm doing well. How are you? Good. Thanks for coming in. Thank you. I told Richard yesterday this is going to be a little bit like we're going to be fishing with a very short line here. There are so many variables this morning to try to find a woman to go on this trip with him. So let's take it from the very beginning here, Richard. You were, just tell us the dating history, how the trip became available, where you are with it now, where she is with it at now. Just take the floor. Okay. So I met this girl Jill about a year ago at a party I hosted and was going to ask her out, but she left before I could ask her out. Then I ran

into her this year at a Halloween party. I asked her out, and we dated for about a month and a half. She's an amazing girl. Things went well. I thought, you know, this, who knows? But, so I wanted to do something fun for new years, and I'd ask her, hey, would you be interested in going on a cruise? She said, oh, you know, might be a little early for us to go on a cruise, but yeah, it sounds like a fun idea.

No problem. A few days later, she sends me a link to a carnival cruise and says, hey, what about this one out of Tampa? I'm going to be in Orlando. It kind of works out. All right, fine. So things were going well. went out a few times after that and she took me me to dinner and said, hey, by the way, we need to talk, things aren't working out, I'd like to see other people, but I'd like to go on the cruise. So she was breaking up with you, but she still wanted to go to the Caribbean? Well, it was just an awkward situation because of the timing. It was 12 days out before the crew's departed. So,

you know, who am I going to find last minute? My friends are all out of town. So, you know, my friend Pam said, hey, why don't you go on the Burt Show? And, uh, thanks, Pam. Hey, Pam. What's up? Yeah, so she said, come on the Burt Show. She's like, this, this story is strange enough to be on the birchow.

She's like, this is odd and twisted.

Let's shoot him an e-bown.

They'd love this. And she was right. Well. And here you are. Here we are. So, yeah. So we're looking to see if there's anybody that, you know, young attractive girl down to Earth might be interested in going on a trip, 29th through the third to Cozumel and Grand Cayman's.

Okay, so there's a bunch of details we still got to work out here. Okay, first of all, 29th through the third.

So you'd have to be available to 29 through the third. He doesn't have transportation to get you down to Tampa at this point. There's no flight. Right. So you either have to drive yourself or fly down. So that's what? Round trip ticket cost you how much? Four or five hundred bucks at the most. Okay. You might be able even find something less than that. So that's Monday through Saturday. So it's next Monday through Saturday, correct? just to give people. Because I know if they're in their cars and don't have a calendar, then that gives them. Yeah, week from today, you'd have to be in Tampa. Okay. Okay. So you're going to have to find your own way down to Tampa, but as soon as that happens, then you're on the cruise. Tell us a little bit about who you might be looking for ideally ideally um someone in late 20s

early 30s that's fun adventurous like to travel someone that would be fun to hang out on a cruise

even though we don't know each other well it just you know that's such an odd request to say hey

I don't know you but let's go on a cruise. I know it is.

You know, someone that's adventurous enough to do that.

I think that's the first part of it is just acknowledging, okay, for the first 24 hours, this is going to be weird.

Right.

So you're sharing a cabin together.

Yeah, there's one state room.

It's two beds that are separate, but could push together it as a queen bed if needed.

Okay. So. But if not, you can sort of keep them. But you can't keep them separate.

Right. You can see as much or as little of me as you need throughout the cruise.

Okay.
