I'm Emi Olea, host of the podcast Crumbs. For years, I had to rely on other people to tell me my story. And what I heard wasn't good. You really f***ed last night. It felt like I lived most of my life in a blackout. I was trapped in addiction. You had to grab the lamp and smash it against the walls. And then I decided I wanted to tell my own story. Listen to Crumbs on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you

Listen on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. We'll see you next time. a girl. He went to a pottery class in order to meet girls. Tucker, how are you? I am guilty as charged. It looks like it worked, though, so I can't really hate on you too much. So that's where you said you met the girl that you want us to call today. What is her name, by the way? Her name is Sophie. Sophie, alright. So you signed up for this pottery class specifically to meet girls, or you are

actually interested in making pots? No, my buddy told me about this, and we were going to sign up together, and he actually didn't end up doing it. So it was just you by yourself in the pottery. Did you feel like a creeper being by yourself in the pottery class? Yeah.

Trying to get girls? Absolutely, I did. All right. But it worked out for you. Tell us about how you talked to Sophie. So Sophie was right next to me. She's on her wheel. I'm on my wheel.

And I really, I didn't want to talk at first because, again, I feel creepy in this. My buddy Jamie's supposed to be there.

We were going to, you know, kind of wingman this. Right. But it didn't work out like that. And I think she could tell that I was kind of

out of place in there. Did you position yourself next to her on purpose? No, it just happened out that she was a beautiful woman. I mean,

it just happened that she was hot and sat right next to me. Luck? No, it just happened out that she was a beautiful woman. I mean, it just happened that she was hot and sat right next to me. Luck of the draw. Absolutely. So I'm sitting there and she looks over and the first thing she says,

are you making a mug? And I was like, all right, that's a good opening. Yeah. Now, were you making a mug? Was she like being flirty, ripping on your pottery skills? I didn't know

what the hell I was making. So, yeah, what'd you tell her you were doing? I was like, yeah, of course I'm making a mug. What are you making over there? You got a bowl going? And she looked at me and she's like, honestly, I don't know what I'm doing. So this made me feel really comfortable. I'm like, oh, my God, she's kind of in my head right now.

Tucker, I stand corrected, all right? I ripped on you at the beginning of this saying that was not a manly thing to do, go take a pottery class, but after hearing that sexy exchange between you two, what is that a mug? What you making, a bowl? Oh my God, Tucker. Foreplay. That is some hot pottery action that you had going on. Shockingly,

I'm single, huh? Yeah, how'd you guys end up going out? Did you ask her out at that class or did you wait a while? Had you been in the class for a couple weeks together? It was actually after that class, I told her, I said, hey, I know this great bar on the corner. It's got pretty good drinks. They're kind of cheap, but at the same time, it's got some great jazz. Do you want to go? Oh, so you're going to go that night? Just carry that momentum of your great conversation straight into... Mine as well. Yeah. How did it go? I thought it was great. I thought we had a really good conversation. It picked up. We were

talking old high school stories and awkward high school stories and stuff like that. It was funny because she told me about the time that she chipped her tooth. The same exact thing had happened to my sister. We were kind of commiserating about that because being in high school and your tooth is chipped, that's something they can't fix right away.

Sounds like a crazy story. You guys had a good conversation and drank a little bit. Did anything especially interesting happen, or was it a pretty average date for you? I thought it was a very good first date for me. She was really, really funny, which I don't find that a lot in women. Chicks. Not funny at all.

No, no, no. I just get my sense of humor. I just kind of know. So at the end of the night, I was walking to her car back over where the class was. And I went in for the hug. I didn't want to go in for the kiss. I felt there was chemistry, but I didn't want to rush it. I felt like that would be a little bit too forward.

So what did she do after the hug? After the hug, she's like, all right. I'm like, let's like, all right. I'm like, let's get another drink, you know, sometime soon, maybe next week after class. And she was like, sure, sure. But it's been a couple weeks and she has not shown up for class. All right. Wow.

She's definitely probably blown you off then if she's not showing up to the pottery class. So you've just been going to pottery class for fun now. If you think about it for for the past couple times. I've got to finish that mug. How many times have you tried to get a hold of her? I've texted her a bunch of times. She didn't have my number, so I was making sure she knew. I'm like, hey, it's tough.

How are things going? Hey, how's your bowl? I mean... Yeah, and you got nothing back at all? Nothing back. No response whatsoever. And she stopped going to the class. Which is a big investment.

Those are expensive classes. And do you know how important do-it-yourself stuff is to ladies? That's true. We like our crafts. You probably ruined her whole Pinterest account, you jerk. Alright, Tucker. We're going to play a song, come back, call her, and get your second date update, okay? Okay. Alright, hang on a minute.

Moving 92.5. Brooke and Jubal in the morning. Second date update. Hey, Tucker? Yeah. Whatever happens in your second date update today, I want you to promise me one thing. Okay.

You continue to go to that pottery class where you met this girl and you finish what you were working on and you send it to me here at the station. I want to put it next to my microphone every day so I can remember Tucker and his pottery class. I will make you a set of bowls. Thank you. Appreciate it. That's nice.

If you're just tuning in for the second date update, Tucker is on the phone. He wants us to call a girl named Sophie. He met her in a pottery class. He went there specifically for the purpose of meeting girls, and it worked out. They went on a date. Nothing really crazy happened. Had some good conversation. Watched some jazz. Didn't

get a kiss or anything at the end of the night. Just a hug. But now she's not calling him back, and not only that, she hasn't shown up at his pottery class. So, Tucker's pretty sure that something weird happened. But you have no idea what that could be. No. At this point, I just want to know what I did. And there's no way that she could, like, figure out that your plan was to troll for chicks

the entire time? I mean, it might have been a little transparent, but I still think we had a good time. Okay. Yeah, I mean, at the end of the day, if she enjoyed your company, you enjoyed her company, you would think she would call you back. Yeah. All right, well, I'm going to dial the phone number right now, see if we can get her on the phone, and get your second date update.

Ready? Yep. Okay, here we go. Okay. Okay. Hello? Hi, is Sophie there? This is her. Hey, Sophie.

How are you? This is Jubal from Brick and Jubal in the Morning. Oh. Hi. Hi. How are you? This is Jubal from Brick and Jubal in the Morning. Oh. Hi. Hi. What's going on? Why am I getting a call? Why not,

Sophie? Why can't I just call people sometimes? How did you get my number? I'm not going to tell you that just yet. That's creepy. You recently went on a date with one of our listeners. His name is Tucker. He liked you a lot, and now you're not calling him back.

Not only that, but he told us that he met you at the pottery class that you attend, and you haven't been at the pottery classes. So Tucker's thinking that he did something really, really bad on your date. Oh, my gosh. So he emailed us to ask you if he did something wrong. Did Tucker screw up? up oh my gosh um i mean this is so weird i can't believe he called and said this to you yeah we talked to him about your date he told us that everything seemed fine to him you went to that bar watched some jazz had

some fun ended the night with a hug and everything seemed cool and now he can't get a hold of you. Is there a particular reason why? Well, I mean, there was something that came up in a conversation that made me kind of like want to avoid him. Can you tell us what that is? I mean, this is a really awkward kind of personal thing. I don't know if I should talk about it. Personal about you or personal about Tucker? Him.

Okay, the reason I ask is, Sophie, if it's about you, I understand you not wanting to say it. But if it's about Tucker, he's the one that wants to hear it. He went as far as to email us to call you. So he's prepared to hear whatever you have to say. So what did he do that's so inappropriate? Well, he just kind of, what did he do that's so inappropriate? He just kind of, I guess he got

a little comfortable in the conversation that we were having and he just kind of said something very personal about himself that you shouldn't really say when you don't know a girl. Like what? What did he say? Like something you say after too many drinks?

I mean, we didn't drink a lot. I was fine. I mean, I don't know if he just can't hold his liquor, but we only had like a couple drinks. What did he say to you? Did it make you embarrassed or does it make you more fearful of him? Embarrassed for him. And, okay, so we were talking about high school. Yeah.

I guess because we were in a class, it made us think of high school. We were like talking about high school stories and embarrassing moments. because we were in a class, it made us think of high school. We were, like, talking about high school stories and embarrassing moments, and it was fun. We were laughing. And then I was talking about my sex ed class and how my teacher was drawing this giant penis, and we were all giggling, and, you know, we're high school, and then the teacher talks about climaxing,

and that was so awkward. So far, it sounds like we're high school, and then the teacher talks about climaxing, and that was so awkward. So far it sounds like you're into the conversation. You're making me feel a little embarrassed. I don't know. Now I'm very interested to hear what Tucker said. Well, you're making me talk while this is on the air. This is between him and me, but it's kind of funny for me to say. But you must know he was, when we were talking about

the climax thing, he was like, oh, yeah, about that. Sometimes, I just can't. And I was like, what? I was choking on my drink almost. Wait a second, so he just volunteered the information that sometimes he can't

do that. I wasn't sure what he meant. I almost choked. I'm like, what? You can't what? He's like, yeah, the climax thing. And I'm like, okay. Yeah. I kept going.

He's like, yeah, I can't because sometimes the Prozac I'm taking affects it. Sophie, that sucks. So what did you say after that? I mean, was it obvious that you were awkward about that? I mean, the first time I tried to laugh it off, and I thought, okay, maybe he just accidentally said it and tried to make him feel comfortable. But when he kept going with it, I just stared at him, and I'm like, I'm sorry. Sophie, as somebody who's been on antidepressants his whole life, I can tell you that is a side effect. And that's why I don't take them anymore.

One of the main reasons that you take them to get over depression and then you can't do that anymore. And then you get depressed because you can't do that. That's a cyclical thing, you know. I've never known anyone that's taken it. I've never taken it. So I don't know. It is a true thing. But that's still very weird that he would share that with you just kind of out of the blue on a first date.

It just made me think like, okay, first of all, you're sharing a lot with me. It's very, very personal. And it's almost like, are you trying to warn me? Like, you think we're going to go home tonight? I don't know what you're thinking. Just be prepared to be disappointed, Sophie. Be prepared. And then the whole Prozac thing, I don't, why are you taking it?

It scares me. Like, are you crazy? There's lots of people that take Prozac thing, I don't, why are you taking it? It scares me. Like, are you crazy? There's lots of people that take Prozac and stuff like that. And I've taken a lot of stuff. I've taken antidepressants. But I'm kind of crazy. Oh, come on. It doesn't really.

So do you want to talk to Tucker again ever? Not particularly. No? Okay. Well, then I guess I shouldn't tell you he's on the phone and wants to talk to you oh no did he just hear everything i said yes he did oh no yeah i did hey sophie how you doing i'm good not really, but how are you? Tucker, did you know that you said what you said? Yeah, I find that it's better to get that out of the way beforehand than during the actual moment. I will agree with you on that, Tucker, but you probably don't want to do it in the first conversation you're having on a first date with somebody. Tucker, I mean, if we had a few dates and we're really connecting and knowing each other, maybe,

but it was just so much, like, right off the bat, I just didn't know what to do. I completely understand your concerns, and I do apologize. I didn't want to make you feel uncomfortable at all. I just have had to deal with that a lot with women over the years, especially. Tucker. Do you always tell them right away? had to deal with that a lot with women over the years, especially. Oh, Tucker. Do you always tell them right away? No, I mean, no, but I thought, like, I really, honestly,

I thought we were having a good conversation, and, you know, I just overstepped a little bit. Believe me, I did not think we were going home that night. Believe me. But he wanted to warn you, if you do. Well, and Sophie, he didn't bring it up out of the blue. It was already a topic of conversation on the table. It's an honest mistake.

He was finishing your sex education class is what he was doing. Yeah. He was adding to it, making sure you got all the notes. He was enlightening you to the dangers of antidepressants on your sex life. Well, maybe I need to get educated. So it was just too awkward for you to go back to the pottery classes I'm actually I'm cool with the pottery classes I made my little pot

and I'm good that's all I needed every time you're in there and Tucker's trying to mold a thing of clay you're going to be thinking about how it's just limp I can understand that Sophie

come on Sophie would you go out on a second date with Tucker? Come on. It's an honest mistake. Yeah. He maybe shouldn't have shared that. Will you go out with him again?

We will pay for it. I guess it would probably be nice of me to give him a chance to redeem himself. He didn't do anything terrible. He just overshared a bit. Yeah. It was just overshared a bit. Yeah. It was just a little shock to me. Okay, so you'll go out with him again? Sure.

Fantastic. That is awesome. Thank you so much. I really appreciate it. You made Tucker's day. I apologize. I will not expose anything else to you that you do not want to. Oh, okay.

Tucker, just on your second date, just don't talk. How about that? But congratulations, you guys. Broken Jubal in the morning.
