• Mike’s Account:
  "So I went over and I said, my name is Mike. She said, my name's Amanda. It was loud. We were in the front. I said, well, let's catch up after the show, and then I just dropped the ball after that."

  — Co-host (07:32)

[Host (possibly Burt or main show host)]

THE Birch show all right, Jen Hobby. How does Love lost and found work here?

[Love Lost and Found Contributor]

Basically, this is when two people meet and they make some sort of connection and maybe have enough of a conversation where they would know something about that other person, but for one reason or another, they didn't get the digits and store it in the phone correctly or whatever. Chickened out. And then a couple days later they're going, man, that could have really been something. So come to us and tell us the story, how you met and everything, every detail that you have about that person. And we put it out in sort of an all points bulletin to the bird show community. And everybody comes together and tries to track that person down.

[Co-host or Commentator (possibly Sharia)]

I think this is a smooth transition from Run DMC into this guy, you know, because I'm sure he's great dancing. Yeah.

[Host (possibly Burt or main show host)]

I mean, he hears this, he's probably on his head right now spinning right now, one handed.

[Co-host or Commentator (possibly Sharia)]

No, he's doing that, you know, he's doing that run step before he starts spinning.

[Host (possibly Burt or main show host)]

Hey, Mike.

[Mike (Breakdancer and Guest)]

Good morning. Good morning, y'. All. How you doing?

[Host (possibly Burt or main show host)]

Good, man. How are you?

[Mike (Breakdancer and Guest)]

Good. I was gonna say it's a perfect day with Rev. Run on for me to come as well.

[Co-host or Commentator (possibly Sharia)]

So I am very impressed that you're still breakdancing, my friend.

[Mike (Breakdancer and Guest)]

You know what? I don't know if I'd be impressed, but I have a good time with it.

[Co-host or Commentator]

Can we call you Mike or do you have a street name?

[Mike (Breakdancer and Guest)]

Not yet. I should have one, though.

[Host (possibly Burt or main show host)]

It's Mikey Love, man. Okay, Mikey Love doing Love Lost and Found here. I mean, we could already pretty much. We could sort of edit our search right now because this happened last week, Right.

[Mike (Breakdancer and Guest)]

It was on the 17th, I think so a couple weeks ago.

[Host (possibly Burt or main show host)]

Okay.

[Love Lost and Found Contributor]

Okay.

[Host (possibly Burt or main show host)]

And it was at the Pete Yorn show.

[Mike (Breakdancer and Guest)]

Yep.

[Weight Watchers Advertiser]

At Center Stage Break Dancing at Pete Yorn.

[Love Lost and Found Contributor]

How do you even do that?

[Co-host or Commentator (possibly Sharia)]

Challenging yourself?

[Host (possibly Burt or main show host)]

Yeah. Where do you do that at? Center State?

[Co-host or Commentator]

Hey, bro, will you search for some Pete Yorn music? Just because I would like to hear. I know it's in there. It's gotta be.

[Mike (Breakdancer and Guest)]

So, see, that's the beauty of it. If you know Pete Yorn, and obviously you guys do, that's the last place anybody should break dancing. And really, I'm not good at it. I'm the last person in the world that should be breakdancing, period, let alone at a Pete Yorn show. So combine those two.

[Host (possibly Burt or main show host)]

Is this some Pete Yorn? Is this him?

[Mike (Breakdancer and Guest)]

That'll do it.

[Host (possibly Burt or main show host)]

This is it right here.

[Mike (Breakdancer and Guest)]

Yeah, this is Pete yn.

[Love Lost and Found Contributor]

I do break dance to this.

[Mike (Breakdancer and Guest)]

You don't. Really, you don't.

[Host (possibly Burt or main show host)]

He says you shouldn't.

[Weight Watchers Advertiser]

Were you drunk?

[Love Lost and Found Contributor]

Yeah. Why were you doing it? Just to sort of be a show off or what?

[Mike (Breakdancer and Guest)]

No. For some reason, I usually end up breakdancing just about every time I go out. It's just something that I end up doing. But.

[Co-host or Commentator]

How old are you?

[Mike (Breakdancer and Guest)]

I'm 35.

[Co-host or Commentator (possibly Sharia)]

That's all right.

[Co-host or Commentator]

You should never do that after 23. Just so you know.

[Mike (Breakdancer and Guest)]

Yeah. You know, I'm enjoying it.

[Co-host or Commentator (possibly Sharia)]

It's one of the original generation of breakdancers. I mean, you know, he's classic.

[Host (possibly Burt or main show host)]

I mean, everybody else now sort of posing.

[Co-host or Commentator (possibly Sharia)]

Yeah, right.

[Host (possibly Burt or main show host)]

I'm assuming take the man out of

[Co-host or Commentator]

the streets, but you can't take the streets out of the.

[Host (possibly Burt or main show host)]

I'm assuming that there wasn't a whole bunch of breakdancers at Pete Yorn. So, I mean, either she saw you or she didn't. She's not gonna go. I wonder if it was the breakdancer with the dark hair or the guy with the blonde hair. The guy with the green shirt. I mean, you're the only one there doing this, right?

[Mike (Breakdancer and Guest)]

Yeah, I'm pretty sure. Yeah.

[Love Lost and Found Contributor]

Okay.

[Co-host or Commentator (possibly Sharia)]

In some cases, when you make that connection, you don't get the number. It's usually because you chicken out. I'm assuming maybe because you were on your. Spinning on your head and just didn't have access to a pen or something. Right.

[Mike (Breakdancer and Guest)]

You know what? I didn't chicken out. Actually, I did talk to her briefly. One of her came over to me and said, that's my friend. She's interested in you. You need to come talk to her.

[Love Lost and Found Contributor]

Okay.

[Mike (Breakdancer and Guest)]

So I went over and I said, my name is Mike. She said, my name's Amanda. It was loud. We were in the front. I said, well, let's catch up after the show, and then I just dropped the ball after that.

[Host (possibly Burt or main show host)]

All right, this is a real man. This is a real key fact here. Did she say she was interested in you before she saw you break dancing or after she saw you break dancing?

[Mike (Breakdancer and Guest)]

After.

[Host (possibly Burt or main show host)]

Good.

[Love Lost and Found Contributor]

Oh, well, there you go.

[Co-host or Commentator (possibly Sharia)]

You're in.

[Co-host or Commentator]

Were you afraid that she said, didn't see the break dancing, went up to him high, saw the break dancing, and

[Host (possibly Burt or main show host)]

then left and then. Yeah. Wouldn't respond to.

[Spinquest/Weight Watchers Advertiser]

Right.

[Co-host or Commentator]

Then went hiking and I ran?

[Mike (Breakdancer and Guest)]

No, she definitely. She definitely saw it. She. That's why I think she's. She's the catch, because, you know, she knows all the feet yarn words, and she isn't offended that I'm break dancing at, you know, a Pete Yarn show. So she's got to be cool.

[Love Lost and Found Contributor]

What does she look like?

[Mike (Breakdancer and Guest)]

She's got blonde hair, medium height, I guess, straight blonde hair, relatively long. I mean, it was very short, you know, exchange. So that's about all I got right now.

[Co-host or Commentator (possibly Sharia)]

And you were toward the front. You say you toward the front of the. I mean, were you in front of the stage, or where were you?

[Mike (Breakdancer and Guest)]

Yeah, on the floor.

[Co-host or Commentator (possibly Sharia)]

Okay.

[Mike (Breakdancer and Guest)]

Small. Small floor there.

[Co-host or Commentator]

Sure. In the pit.

[Co-host or Commentator (possibly Sharia)]

Oh, that's right. Because he had to have a space to do his thing.

[Mike (Breakdancer and Guest)]

Yeah.

[Host (possibly Burt or main show host)]

Do you know her friend's name?

[Mike (Breakdancer and Guest)]

I do not. She was there with a girlfriend and that girlfriend's boyfriend. Hmm. Three of them.

[Host (possibly Burt or main show host)]

Well, there is really not. Now, you said you talked to her for a couple of minutes. She must have given you something.

[Mike (Breakdancer and Guest)]

No, really, it was. We were just making eye contact throughout the night, and then it was, I'm Mike. I'm Amanda. Let's talk after the show. And that was it.

[Love Lost and Found Contributor]

Dang.

[Host (possibly Burt or main show host)]

Huh?

[Co-host or Commentator]

It's gonna be a tough one.

[Love Lost and Found Contributor]

She didn't come find you after the show. You weren't looking for her after the show?

[Mike (Breakdancer and Guest)]

Yeah, that's where I dropped the ball, because I sort of forgot, like, for a second that I was supposed to do that, and then everybody was funneling out, and then it was too late.

[Love Lost and Found Contributor]

He says she might have been waiting around for him.

[Co-host or Commentator (possibly Sharia)]

He got mad.

[Co-host or Commentator]

She wanted to be the left side of your caterpillar.

[Host (possibly Burt or main show host)]

Maybe he was dizzy at that point.

[Co-host or Commentator (possibly Sharia)]

She's like, I just got rejected by pregnant.

[Host (possibly Burt or main show host)]

All right, so all we have is a name, dude. I mean, that's really not a lot. Blonde, medium height.

[Love Lost and Found Contributor]

If you could estimate her age, what would you say?

[Mike (Breakdancer and Guest)]

27, 28.

[Love Lost and Found Contributor]

Okay.

[Host (possibly Burt or main show host)]

But nothing concrete. She was there with a girlfriend. And you do know that the girlfriend was there with her boyfriend.

[Mike (Breakdancer and Guest)]

Yeah. Because she came over and said, that guy is not her boyfriend, he's mine. She's interested in you. You need to talk to her.

[Co-host or Commentator]

Oh, dude, man, you really dream it was set up.

[Mike (Breakdancer and Guest)]

That's why I'm 35 and single. Come on.

[Host (possibly Burt or main show host)]

There's a reason why we're on the radio doing this now.

[Mike (Breakdancer and Guest)]

That's right. True.

[Co-host or Commentator (possibly Sharia)]

So really, we just, I mean, we just have to look out that one of the three of them are listening

[Love Lost and Found Contributor]

or somebody that went to the Pete Jordan show, or if you have a

[Host (possibly Burt or main show host)]

friend named Amanda that, you know, you went there that night, then you may be the key for us. I mean, because we're not. We don't necessarily. Inevitably, we're looking for Amanda, but if you're sort of the bridge to get to her, then call us also. 404-741. Q100.

[Co-host or Commentator (possibly Sharia)]

It's gonna be tight.

[Host (possibly Burt or main show host)]

Yeah, I don't think we've ever been successful when we just had a name. The only thing that makes us stand out, obviously, is it's a small venue. Yeah, you were breakdancing at a Pete Yorn show. So others saw you and if they were there with Amanda, know who she is and know who you are.

[Mike (Breakdancer and Guest)]

So shot in the dark.

[Co-host or Commentator]

But you know what else might come of this is you might get. We might get a phone call or email message on Facebook or something from somebody who's been looking for a 35 year old breakdancer, you know, and there could be a woman out there who's like, God, you know what? I just haven't found that guy who's got everything. He's got it together, he's got a job, he likes Pete Yorn, he break dances.

[Host (possibly Burt or main show host)]

He's 35, he's a home run.

[Love Lost and Found Contributor]

He's actually in that top 10. Somewhere on that list, somebody's like, oh,

[Co-host or Commentator (possibly Sharia)]

when I was young, I loved breakdance

[Co-host or Commentator]

because Burt believes in destiny the way you believe in Beatbox. And I think there's a good chance that the phone will, you know, that the phone will ring or the email light will light up saying, hey, what about me? I'm not Amanda. But I appreciate doing the worm.

[Host (possibly Burt or main show host)]

If this is true breakdancing destiny, then Amanda is either listening or one of her friends are.

[Mike (Breakdancer and Guest)]

Okay, well, I appreciate any help that you guys can give me.

[Co-host or Commentator]

Electric boogaloo, partner.

[Host (possibly Burt or main show host)]

We'll try mine. Thanks. We'll give you a call back if we get any leads.

[Mike (Breakdancer and Guest)]

All right, thank you. See ya.

[Host (possibly Burt or main show host)]

Not a lot to go on here.

[Love Lost and Found Contributor]

Microphone's not ringing.

[Host (possibly Burt or main show host)]

Not a lot.

[Co-host or Commentator]

He's hanging his head like the end of the robot.

[Co-host or Commentator (possibly Sharia)]

Okay.

[Host (possibly Burt or main show host)]

All right. If you know an Amanda, did you

[Co-host or Commentator (possibly Sharia)]

look all those terms up like you had to, didn't you?

[Mike (Breakdancer and Guest)]

That's awesome.

[Co-host or Commentator]

Hello me in the streets.

[Host (possibly Burt or main show host)]

It's in his soul.

[Spinquest/Weight Watchers Advertiser]

Look at him.

[Host (possibly Burt or main show host)]

It's in his soul.

[Co-host or Commentator]

I'm gonna go have to get some spray paint and tag something.

[Love Lost and Found Contributor]

He's on urbandictionary.com right now.

[Mike (Breakdancer and Guest)]

Thank you.

[Host (possibly Burt or main show host)]

If you know of an Amanda that was at Pete Yorn on the 17th, that's really the only thing we have to go on. You know Amanda or you know her friend that was there, then give us a call or shoot us an [e-mail] or call us.
