Second Date
Hosted by Second Date
Radio hosts mediate disputes between listeners and their dates who ghosted them, culminating in a three-way call to find out what went wrong.
A daily dose of cringe comedy and relationship drama, structured as a three-act play for radio. It's a modern dating intervention where hosts act as playful but probing private investigators, first hearing a listener's story of being ghosted, then cold-calling the date for their side, and finally orchestrating a live, often awkward, confrontation.
“The core distinction is the ambush-style three-way call that forces a direct confrontation between the two daters. Unlike simple advice shows, it manufactures a real-time resolution (or implosion) for listeners' entertainment.”
Who hosts this show
This show is a popular, long-running segment from the nationally syndicated radio program "The Jubal Show," hosted by Jubal Fresh and Brooke Fox. In each segment, they take a call from a listener who has been ghosted after a date. The hosts then call the other person to get their side of the story before putting both parties on the line together to mediate the conflict and see if a second date is possible.

What you'll be asked on this show
The format is a rigid three-act structure. First, the hosts build rapport with the caller (the 'ghosted'), asking questions to establish the date's origin, what they did, and the caller's theory on why they were ghosted. Next, they call the 'ghoster' under the pretense of a radio survey, asking about their dating life before revealing the true purpose of the call. The final act is the confrontation, where the hosts bring the original caller onto the line and mediate the ensuing, often-awkward conversation, always pushing towards the final question: "Will you go on a second date if we pay for it?"
The segment is a recurring bit called "Second Date Update." Hosts Jubal Fresh and Brooke Fox employ a tag-team, good cop/bad cop style, using humor, teasing, and song parodies to set the scene. They first interview the caller, summarize the story for the audience, then call the other person to get their side before revealing the original caller is on the line.
