(audience cheering)
Anyways, I have been divorced for 30 years.
I live in a 55 plus community.
I recently went on a date and he lost his wife last August.
And we went out to dinner about three weeks ago.
Never heard from him anymore.
Then one of my friends heard
that he was at the gym working out in the morning saying,
"You know what? I've been going out with a lot of women,
but I can't find anyone like my wife."
And when my girlfriend said that,
I says, "Heck, if I knew that,
I would've had a steak instead of a chicken pot pie."
(audience laughing)
Steve, I know better.
I'm something. - [Steve] Yeah.
- I am worth something more. - Yeah.
- You know, I like to have fun.
I'm sharp. I've been told I'm sassy.
- Yeah, I can see that. - [Barbara] Okay.

- And I'm sort of a cougar.

never heard from again. - [Barbara] Right.

- Yeah, a few months ago.
He had no right going out with me.

How long ago was the date?
- Three weeks ago. - That's enough time.
(audience laughing) - I know. I know that.
- How old do you think he was?
- Oh, he's 76.
- Yeah, that's enough time.
- [Barbara] I know. I know.
- You know, once you're 75, you know what I mean?
We just gotta start picking the pace up a little bit.
You know, so. - Yes, sir.
- Why don't we give him another chance?
'Cause sometimes it just don't work out at the beginning.
He was married for a long time.
- 52 years. - [Steve] Yeah, see.
See you gotta - I never had that luck.
I was married several times
and I never had a happy marriage.
I just want somebody to be, to go to a movie with,
go to dinner, go to the beach 'cause I love the beach.
Walk on the beach, watch a sunset, you know?

You know, now stay there.
Now, gentlemen, introduce yourselves.
- I'm Richard. Hi, Steve. Hi.
- Hi. - I'm 63.
Just turned 63 a couple weeks ago.
I live in Burbank and I work in the real estate business.
And I love to get outdoors,
so I'd love to be with somebody
who likes the outdoors, like hiking.
(audience clapping)
- Hi, Steve. I'm Brent Wendell Williams,
aka the great Brentino.
(audience clapping)
And is this Barbara? - Yeah.
- Miss Barbara, my pacemaker's going off right now.
(audience clapping)
I was a former champion gymnast, honey.
And I'm still in amazing shape.
I'm 74, still young.
And guess what? I love to dance.
(audience cheering)
- [Barbara] Lord, have mercy.
Whoa, Steve.
- [Steve] Yeah.
Whoa, Steve. - Lord, have mercy.
- Larry, introduce yourself, sir.
- I'm Dr. Larry Ramalo. Hi, Steve.
I'm a former Air Force chief of surgery and
(audience clapping)
I'm from Palm Desert, California.
And I'm the oldest of the group here. I'm 78 years old.
(audience cheering) - Oh, all right.
(audience cheering)
- So Miss Barbara, what do you think?
Okay, get yourself a drink.
- This is too much. - Yeah.
But you know, miss, so what do you think so far?
- Pretty good. - [Steve] Yeah.
- Not too shabby.
- Miss Barbara, you have the questions
so whenever you ready,
you can start asking any one of the gentlemen
and whatever question you'd like.
- Okay. Richard? - Yes.
- What quality is most attractive to you in a partner?
- I would say mental energy.
I actually get turned on by people who are excited
about what they're talking about and what they're doing.
(audience clapping) - Okay, thank you.
Larry, how do you spend your downtime?
- I very seldom have downtime.
I'm usually busy doing something.
I'm either helping people with their problems
or I'm writing books.
I have about 30 books in the works.
Two of them will come out next month.
(audience clapping) And I, Thank you.
- Brent, for what in life do you feel the most grateful for?
- I have three grown, successful children.
I've got four grandkids.
I just, I'm excited to wake up every day
because really our cups are not half empty,
they're half full and it's the way God intended it.
And you just gotta keep going for your dreams.
(audience clapping) - [Barbara] Okay.
- And go dancing. (laughs)
- Okay. Richard, I have the same question for you.
- Every day I meet people who impress me
with what their journey has been
and the stories that they have to share with me.
That's just what I love about life
and especially in a place like Los Angeles,
where you meet people from everywhere.
- And how about you, Larry, with the same question?
What are you most grateful for in life?
- I'm probably the most thankful
for the fact that I was given a lot of common sense.
And I've learned that I really don't learn very much
when I'm talking, I learn when I'm listening.
(audience clapping)
- Let me explain something to y'all,
what's happening up here.
All these grown man ass answers.
It's a lot of knowledge sitting up here.
I'm learning something.
I'm sitting up in here paying attention right now.
As a man.
- [Larry] Steve's a good man. - Yeah.
- He's a good man. - Yes.
- One more question, Miss Barbara.
- Richard, name three things you'd like
to have in common with your partner.
- Sense of humor is important to me
because I, especially when things are hard,
the best way is to find something funny to smile about.
Communication skills.
And I think the other thing that excites me
is just learning about new things every day.
There's so much in this world
and so I want to be with somebody
who's also excited about what's the next place,
where's the next restaurant,
what's the new place to hike, or whatever.
- Okay. (audience clapping)
Same question, Brent, for you.
What are the three things that you'd like
to have in common with your partner?
- I think friendship, number one.
To be able to communicate with each other
and to build each other up and to go dancing.
(audience clapping)
- And Larry, what is your biggest strength and weakness?
- I thought you were gonna ask me the same question.
- Aha! I did that on purpose.
- My biggest strength is that, for some reason,
I've been given certain skills to the point
where I've saved probably 3,000 lives in my career.
(audience clapping)
And so therefore, helping people, other people
is my main goal and my main purpose in life.
And I try and do that every single day, every single moment.
(audience clapping)
- And what are your weaknesses?
- I try to remain positive. I try and avoid negativity.
One of the main problems in life is chronic irritation.
If you're around people who irritate you all the time-
- Yes, that's true. (Barbara clapping)
- Move on. - Yes.
Yeah.
- Well, Miss Barbara,
we gotta make a decision now. (dramatic music)
I got three fine gentlemen over here.
They all come with different assets.
They all come with a uniqueness.
But one thing about it, all three of them are good men
and they're great gentlemen.
(audience clapping)
So Miss Barbara, you have to make a decision.
(audience cheering) - I need a drumroll!
(drumroll)
I'm going to pick Larry.
- Yay, Larry!
- Larry, come on over, sir.
Congratulations. - Thank you.
- Stand right here next to Miss Barbara. Now.
- I don't wanna turn my back to the audience, okay?
- Miss Barbara, I want you to take your time,
get to know Larry a little bit better.
I'm gonna send the both of you
to one of our favorite Italian spots, Buca di Beppo
for dinner tonight.
And good luck to both of you. Keep us posted.
Just have a nice time.
Thank you, Larry. - Thank you. Thank you, Steve.
- Don't go away, we'll be right back.
