It's always annoying when you're starting to date somebody new and then one of your exes approaches them

and starts telling them all kinds of lies about you. Oh my god, that's not just annoying. I know I've had that happen to me a few times where I've been dating somebody new and then my ex will approach them and be like, oh, you're dating Jubal. He's such a thoughtful and good lover. That is obviously a lie.

And that's kind of what happened to Chris who's on the phone for a second date update today. One of his exes tried to hate on him. And that's why he thinks the girl is not calling him back. Chris, how are you? I'm all right, Jubal. How are you today? I'm good, man. Thank you for your email.

I read it and it, like, outraged me at what your ex-girlfriend did to you. This is ridiculous. Yeah, it was bullshit, man. I mean, I'm sorry. Can I say that? Yeah. Before we get into what your ex-girlfriend did to you, first tell us about the girl that you want to call today.

So her name's Heather, and we met through mutual friends. And, man, she's just cute. She's sweet. I'd seen her picture, and I met her at a party and my buddy introduced us. And, you know, I mean, she's, I mean, like the perfect girl. She's, I kind of like short brunettes and she's short and brunette and really attractive and fun and just, I don't know, really witty and kind of challenged me. There's something about this girl. You're right. She sounds like perfection to me. Really witty. So what'd you guys do on your date? We went out for dessert. There's this really cool gelato place that

reminds me a lot of, I don't know, like the perfect date for a romantic comedy. I know that kind of sounds silly. I'm a guy that shouldn't matter, but I think people are more relaxed around dessert. And we went and had gelato. It was was so much fun i think that's a perfect date too wasn't a romantic comedy but i did get a kiss at the end of the night we had fun i went home i was kind of floating on a cloud and then i can't get her to call me back and you think the reason she's not calling you back is because of what happened later that night when you got home right that man that's the only thing i can figure out. I logged onto Facebook, and the guy had checked us in at the gelato place. I wanted the friend who had introduced us to know that we were out on a date, and I'm

not going to lie, the girl was really cute. I was proud of being on a date with her and wanted people to see it. So I tagged her on Facebook, and all of a sudden I looked down, and first off, my ex-girlfriend had liked the post, which is always scary. That's so creepy. That's weird. And she commented on it as well, and I think the comments might be why she's not calling me back. Is your ex-girlfriend just crazy? Oh, she's a crazy ****, man.

Let me tell you, I don't have a clue why. I mean, she was cute, but she was **** insane. It sounds like it, especially from what you put in your email that she said in the comment section. Why don't you tell everybody what she said? Are you kidding me? She said that on your comment section? That was the first one. Did you delete it immediately? I deleted it immediately, but there were also two more under that that I didn't see until I got home.

Why have you not blocked your ex from your Facebook page? Well, I've blocked her now. I mean, I didn't realize she was as nuts as she actually is, but holy s***. Yeah, the second two weren't any better than the first. So after she called her a buck-tooth s**t, what else did she have to say? The second one said, are you going to ignore and manipulate this one too? Oh, whoa. Did you like that one?

And just underneath that put yes? No, no, I deleted it. But the worst one may have been the one that she directed specifically at Heather. And it just said, hey girl, let me tell you fair warning from someone who's been there. One word, herpes. Is that true? Before I say that this is a horrible thing, Chris, do you have herpes? No, I don't have herpes.

I didn't know if she was saying a truthful statement or if she was lying about you. No, she's just crazy. So you deleted the comments, but you think that Heather still might have seen them. That's the only reason I can figure out that she won't call me back. Oh my God, I would have nothing to do with you if I saw exes leave comments like that. Yeah, that's understandable. Because even if she thinks that she's lying about the herpes and stuff, which I'm still not fully on your side, Chris. I don't know if that's true or not.

But even if she didn't believe that, just the fact that you have a crazy ex like that is enough to scare anybody away. Yeah. That's why I'm so concerned. I think she saw the Facebook page and she saw that. She read it and said, that guy's kryptonite. I don't want anything to do with him. That's why I need your help. The date went well, things going well, and I don't have herpes. I like that that's how you defend yourself. Well, I'm going to go ahead and agree with you on this. That's probably why she's not calling you back. I'm guessing she saw them or somebody she knows saw them and told her about the messages. Chris, I mean, you sound like a nice guy, but did you do something really bad to this girl to make her so bitter and angry?

No, I mean, like, I don't really know how to break up with a girl. And so I kind of just got aloof and distant. And she'd send me text messages. And I'd just slowly but surely not return them to the point that she broke up with me. Okay, so she's just bitter. Yeah. She's just bitter. All right.

Well, we're going to play a song. Come back. Call Heather and get your second date update, okay? Thanks. All right. Hang on. Moving 92.5. Brooke and Jubal in the morning.

Second date update. If you're just tuning in for the second part of the second date update, Chris is on the phone with us. He thinks he's not getting a call back because of a crazy ex-girlfriend. He went out with this girl named Heather. They had a good time, even ended the evening with a kiss. But then when he went back home after the date, he checked his Facebook and in the comments section, his ex-girlfriend

left a bunch of mean comments. Things like Congrats, Chris. Looks like you found some new bucktooth s*** to mess around with. And that's just one of them. I guess she also said, are you going to ignore and manipulate this one too? And then to top it all off, her

last comment was, hey girl, let me give you fair warning from someone who's been top it all off, her last comment was, hey girl, let me give you fair warning from someone who's been there. One word, herpes in all caps. So Chris is guessing that Heather saw that and is like, yeah, I don't want to go out with this guy anymore. Chris, I didn't ask you this.

How long has it been since you've heard from her? It's four days. And you didn't hear anything back after that last kiss? No, I mean, like we kissed and we made plans that we would chat the next day, and then nothing. All right, well, I'm going to dial the phone right now, get her on the phone, and get your second date update. You ready? All right, thanks.

All right, here we go. Hello? May I speak to Heather, please? This is. Hey, Heather, how are you? This is Jubal from Brook and Jubal in the Morning. Okay. The radio show?

Okay, yeah. Maybe. Do you know who I am, or are you pretending? yeah yeah i've heard of you guys yeah okay all right so have you ever listened to the show um like maybe on accident most people listen anyway so congratulations so that's awesome hey i'm calling you today because we do a segment on our show called the second date update. It's where you go out on a date with somebody. And then if you end up not calling them back after that date, they email us to see if we can get you on the phone and ask if something went wrong. We recently got an email about you from one of our listeners.

Oh, his name is Chris. You guys went out for gelato. Oh, okay. Yeah. Well, Chris has been trying to get a hold of you, and he's wondering why you're not calling him back. Oh, God. Oh, God.

I feel so horrible. He honestly thinks I'm blowing him off. Yeah. Oh, no. He thinks that you want nothing to do with him. Oh, God. He thinks that you want nothing to do with him. Oh, God. I lost my phone. Like, I lost my phone, like, four days ago or something, and I just got it today.

Like, literally, like, three hours ago, I just got a new phone. That's not even a lie. I've just been, like, trying to put all my contacts back on it and everything. Oh, I feel so horrible that he thinks that. So are you saying you're not blowing him off? No. Oh, my God, no. I had a great time.

I was planning on calling him later today once I got all my contacts back and everything. Well, that's pretty anticlimactic. I was hoping you had something terrible to say about him. Oh, no. Sorry to disappoint you. Yeah, I really liked him. We had a had a great time oh that's so cute in that case could you like email him or call him and tell him that i will be calling him later tonight i could do that but why don't you just do it yourself because chris is actually on the other line listening. Hey, Heather. What?

Hi. Hi. I'm sorry to put you on the radio and have these guys call you. I just, we had such a great date. I mean, we ended it, we said we'd call each other, and then I didn't text or email. I didn't get anything, and I was just worried you didn't want to go on a date again.

I really like you. I'd like to go on a second date. Oh, God. I'm so sorry that this happened. I lost my phone and it's like my whole world got messed up. I'm so sorry that you thought that. And yes, I would totally love to go on a second date with you. Heather, are you sure you want to go on a second date with someone who would just jump to conclusions like that, that you never wanted to talk to them again after four days? I might have done the same thing, honestly. I don't know. Give me something.

This is like the nicest second date update ever. Yeah. I mean, you guys are supposed to be helping me out here, guys. It's just, you know, usually something dramatic happens, and this is kind of boring. Well, I mean, I don't really have any issues. I mean, I guess the more exciting part of this is that, you know, like, we don't know what's going to happen in the future. But, you know, we had a good time. Heather, you don't even understand the things that we hear in these second date updates from time to time. Like, sometimes there was this one guy that we did a second date update with who went out on a date with a girl.

And then he checked them in somewhere. Don't do this. And when he got back to the house, there were, like, comments from his ex-girlfriend, like, calling the girl a skank and saying that he had herpes and stuff like that. Like, we've done second date updates where that's happened. Jubal.

Jubal. Isn't that crazy? That's horrible. That is drama that I would definitely want to avoid. That's horrible. Yeah, can you believe that, Chris? I didn't tell you that story, did I? No, that's really bad.

But Heather, should we go ahead and start setting up our second date? Wait, but before we get into that, I want to tell Heather this story because I couldn't believe it when we did that second date update a while ago where that guy was talking about his crazy ex commenting on his Facebook like that. I mean, Heather, could you imagine if that happened to you? You'd probably never want to date that guy, huh? Yeah, definitely not. I would not want to be in that nightmare situation. Yeah, I think most people wouldn't want to be, I mean, with a crazy ex like that and then, like, claiming that the guy has herpes.

Oh, my God, what? Oh, that's awful. Yeah, that's another thing she said. In that guy's defense, what if none of that was true? Like, I'm just standing up for that guy. What if none of that was real? Oh, you're just standing up for that guy, huh, Chris? Yeah, I mean, you know.

I mean, I didn't hear that second date update, but I mean, if none of that's true, and he doesn't have herpes and the girl's just crazy, it doesn't make him a bad guy. You know what, Chris? That doesn't even matter. It still means that he's attached to some kind of psycho ex that could do crazy s*** to you later on. You know what I mean, Heather? Oh, yeah.

I mean, they make movies about it, so... Yeah, they do. Oh, no. It's a good thing that this second date update didn't end up like that, Heather. I'm really happy. Oh, good. Me too. Yeah, and it's cool that we could reconnect, you guys. This is like the first positive second date update we've had in a while.

That leads me to my question. Would you like to go out on a second date with Chris? I will pay for it. Oh, well, I was going to go out with him anyway, but if you're going to pay for it too, that's awesome. Chris, you got your second date, man. Way to go. Yes. Thank you.

Hey, Chris, isn't there anything else that you want to tell her before we let her go? No. No, I mean, I'm excited for our second date, and I really am sorry I put her on the radio. I thought there was something else, though. No. She has beautiful eyes that we had a lot of fun, and I can't wait to see her again. Okay, yeah, that was it. I don't know what I was thinking. I was thinking about something else, though. No. That she has beautiful eyes, that we had a lot of fun, and I can't wait to see her again. Okay, yeah, that was it.

I don't know what I was thinking. I was thinking about something else. You sealed the deal, Chris. You sealed the deal. It's good. You're good. Well, congratulations, Heather and Chris. I hope you guys enjoy your evening out.

Thank you. And take care, Heather, because it could be your last. You're funny. I don't even know what that means. You will. You will. All right, guys, have a good one.
