Network, iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. The Jubal Show on demand. First day follow-up. You see those names sometimes where you're not sure how to pronounce it, right? Because the spelling is confusing.

And then there's those other names where you're not sure how to pronounce it because it just sounds, it just looks like it has to be pronounced a certain way. Right. And there's a dude on the phone who's not getting a call back from a woman that he went on a date with. Her name is Reese and he wants another date with her. This is the first date follow up.

That's what we do. Right. But his name, I'm not sure how to say it. Okay. Cause it's, it's spelled A-S-H. Right. So Ash. Right. Yeah. Yeah. I would think, but I feel like if you have a name, okay? Because it's spelled A-S-H, right? So, Ash? Yeah, I would think, but I feel like if you have a name Ash,

it's going to be like, Ash. My name is Ash. Like a Sufa dude. Kind of, yeah. I feel like only those types of dudes would be named Ash. So, Ash, what's up, dude? How are you? I'm good.

How are you guys? Good. Pretty close, honestly. Anyway, man, how long has it been since your date? It's been like a week and a half now. A week and a half, okay. And how many times have you reached out to Reese, right? That's her name, Reese?

Yeah, Reese. No, no. I only actually reached out like once. She has her reads on, so I know she saw the text. Oh, that's heartbreaking. Alright, so you've been left on read, huh? When did you text her? It's been a week and a half, but did you text her the next day?

No, I gave her a couple days because I was also in the phase of, is she going to text me first? So then when it was a couple days, I just reached out to her. And you're probably a pretty chill dude. Your name's Ash. There's no way you can not be a chill dude and be like, I'll just wait and see how it goes with a name like Ash my personality was kind of given to me at birth yeah all right well tell us about your date what'd you guys do all right well i told her that i would like surprise

her with a date idea and then i took her to this animal shelter that i work at oh you're trying to do the whole like look at me i work at an animal shelter and I take care of sick animals. Oh, yeah, I mean, I love animals. And I thought, you know, that's always a nice way to show that you're caring. So that'd be a good idea. You sound like the kind of guy who later on volunteers at the old people's home. Well, I mean, yeah, I have done that before, actually. Are you going to tell us next that you're a firefighter, too?

And you play guitar around campfires? Like all the things? I do play guitar, campfires? All the things. I do play guitar but I'm not a guitarist. It's better than involuntarily picking up trash on the side of the freeway. That's true. We've had a lot of first date follow-ups with someone like that and not someone who just does it out of the kindness of their heart. Anyway, that's not an average date

though to take someone on. Does she seem to like it? I don't know. I'm not really sure. I mean, I thought it would be a cool way to connect with her and, like, break the ice, but I don't know. I think there could have been worse dates, right? I mean, it could have gone better, but I thought it was okay, honestly. Okay. So she's not calling you back.

It's been a week and a half. Why do you think she's blowing you off? Well, I mean, I've been thinking about it, and I think the only thing could be, like, one of the dogs did, like, pee on her shoe shoe and it wasn't a lot, but I think it might have like ruined her overall experience. Do you know she's an animal person? I mean, I thought because she's a girl that she might be, but... Oh, you assumed. Yeah, I assumed. Yeah, that was stupid. So do you just want to find out what happened and why she's not calling you back or you do want a second date with her?

No, I'll be honest. Like we, I thought we had a really good time and she was like, I mean, she was really cool. She was very easy to talk to and I told her a lot about myself. So I thought we were kind of hitting it off and I'd, I'd really just, I'd like to know what happened and if I can get another date. Okay. Question for you. Did she also tell you a lot about her? Like a little bit. Okay. I think it was mostly me doing the talking, honestly. That could be a reason, too.

You think maybe because the dog peed on the shoe, and then also maybe you were talking a bunch. Yeah, now you put it that way. All right, we'll see. We'll try to figure it out for you, okay? We'll play a song, come back, and then call her and see if the dog peed on her. She ruined your chances or you ruined your chances. Either way, we'll see if we can get another date, okay?

Awesome, thanks, guys. We'll do right with it. It's a Jubal show. Email your first date for a follow-up. We got Ash on the phone, and Ash wants us to call a woman named Reese that he went on a date with, and she's ghosted him. And we just talked to Ash about the date. Ash took Reese to the animal shelter that he works at.

He also volunteers at an old folks home from time to time. He plays guitar. Anything else we should know about you and your charitable efforts? No, I think you hit the nail on the head. Okay. And like I'm thinking, I can't think of the guy's name, but he's a singer. He's like a, lives on the beach, plays guitar. He's literally the guy that sits around the campfire and plays guitar.

And all the women love that dude. And he lives in Hawaii. He basically just tans all day. Bob Marley? No, it's not. Bob Marley doesn't, Bob Marley's not with us anymore. Jack Johnson? Yes, Christian, our digital director.

Jack Johnson, that's who I'm trying to think of. You're welcome. I'll find a song of his. I'll play a clip. You'll know exactly who I'm talking about. Mr. Carefree. Trust me. If I play it, you probably know.

Anyway, do you know who Jack Johnson is? I do, yes, I do. That's who I picture when I think of you. Nobody really got that except for Christian, who kind of got it, our digital director. And I'm dying inside though. I thought that was hilarious. Either way, let's get to the date.

Ash went out with a woman named Reese. She's not calling him back. They went to the dog shelter where he works at. He thinks that he's not going to call back because a dog accidentally peed on her shoe

while she was there. And also, he might not have, he might have talked about himself too much and not enough about her so we're going to get her on the phone right now and find out what one of those is the thing and if it isn't we'll find out what it is and try to get another date you ready to go

i'm good to go all right here we go Hello? Hi, may I speak to Reese, please? Yeah, this is her. Hey, Reese, how are you? Yeah, I'm good. Who is this? This is actually the Jubal Show. It's a radio show. My name is Jubal. My name is Alex. My name is English Evan.

And we do a second on our show where if you go out on a date with someone and then end up ghosting them, that person can email us to get you on the phone and ask what happened. And we got an email about you from someone who listens to our show where if you go out on a date with someone and then end up ghosting them, that person can email us to get you on the phone and ask what happened. And we got an email about you from someone who listens to our show. Okay. Do you want to know who it is? Yes, please. Yeah, his name is Ash.

Oh my God. That a**. Wait, did you say Ash or another word? Oh, the other word. Sorry. Okay. Oh, well, what happened?

Oh, my God. I just feel like I am, first of all, way better than ash. And he needs to, well, long story short, I don't know why you guys know, but he needs to rethink the idea of what a date is. Why? Why do you say that? I mean, he told us that he took you to where he works, which was the animal shelter. But, you know, he said that he wasn't really sure how you thought the date went, but he really liked you.

So what is your take on it? Yeah. What did he tell you about the animal shelter date? Well, he said he thought you guys had fun. He thought it would be a cool thing to do. Kind of different than your normal date. He thinks that the reason that you've ghosted him is because while you were there, a dog tinkled on your toes.

Peed on your shoe. Sorry about that. Tinkle toes. Peed on your shoe, though. Is that why? Yeah, it was not a cool thing to do. It was like an animal. It was a grimy animal shelter and a dog peed all over me. Are you kidding me? What kind of date?

Well, what? You don't like that idea for a date? How is that a date? Because he's trying to be cute. Are they adopting an animal to like live together now or what? I don't know. They're going to bond over animals. Is he reposing? Okay, so you didn't like the date. Is that why you're not calling him back? No, I'm not a dog. I'm a bad ****. I want to be taken

out on a date, like a nice date, not to some shelter. Are you kidding me? Okay, so that not a dog. I'm a bad bitch. I want to be taken out on a date, like a nice date, not to some shelter. Are you kidding me? Okay. So that's it then? You just thought the date was bad? Yeah, I thought the date was horrid. Okay.

So, okay, if you didn't go on a date that went to an animal shelter, if you guys went somewhere else, do you think it could have been better? Of course. I mean, if someone treats me like the way I'm supposed to be treated and it's like a nice date,

of course I'm going to be nice. But she didn't know that though. Yeah. It's like a first date, right? Well, just take a guess. Would you want,

I mean, who wants to go to an animal shelter, like a dog and be peed on? I bet you there's a lot of people that would like to do that. And then there's also people that wouldn't. There's people like English Devon who would love to go to an animal shelter and then there's people like Alex who are like hell no just like you're like hell no so I mean but you okay so if you didn't go to the animal shelter and you went with this dude Ash to um some crazy like dinner and a

movie crazy would you like that did you like Yeah. I guess is what I'm asking. I mean, he was fine. I was just kind of distracted by the whole bad date. Yeah. She's the one fine. He's fine. Well, I don't know what else to ask you. So I'm just going to go ahead and tell you that Ash is actually on the phone listening and would love to talk to you.

Hi, Reese. Oh my God. Oh my God. Yeah, so you didn't like the shelter, huh? Hi. No, I did not like... I mean, come on. Of course I didn't like to get

teed up some mongo who lives in a cage. What? I mean, wait, it didn't seem like that big of a deal on the date and i genuinely thought you enjoyed your time at the shelter well i mean i did not enjoy it and you know maybe next time don't act all surprised like don't surprise someone first of all with this like date and then like think that you're doing them some big favor, like horrible thing. Like no one's, have you tried this before?

Like no one's going to like it. No one will ever like it. No one probably ever has. Oh wow. Oh my God. All right. You were just like a completely different person right now, as opposed to the girl I met.

I'm kind of shocked there. And for the record, that's one of my go-to first date spots. And all the other women who went there had a great time. Yeah. I'm not them. I'm a bad went there had a great time. Yeah. Well, I mean, guess what? I'm not them. I'm a bad bitch.

Just deal with it. Wow. Great. Well, I have no desire for another date now. Well, no. Hey, you don't know that yet. She hasn't said yes or no. Let's find out.

Hey, Reese, would you like to go on another date with Ash? We'll pay for it. No, not with him. I'll go on another date. Someone else. All right. Well, great, because I have no desire either, so good to go then. Thank you so much. I think, you know what? A lot of times when people don't go out on another date, we're like,

hey, that wasn't a successful one. They didn't go out again. But it sounds like you guys are in such agreement that you don't want to ever see each other again. I consider this a successful, happy ending. I think so. Thumbs up all around. Good job. Yeah, I'm super pumped and never have to see you again. Amazing.

I would love to never see you again either. All right. Wow. Perfect. I think that actually worked out. Yeah, it did. That was nice. Kind of nice. Okay, here.

I found a Jack Johnson song. Oh. I've never even heard this guy. The one that you think we'll know? I think you would. This dude, it plays in every grocery store in the world when you're walking through there. So he's elevator music is what you're saying. Pretty much, yeah.

Right. You go to an office building that Jack Johnson is definitely on. Okay. So he's been on somewhere where you've been at. Okay, so I don't even know what this song is because I don't know his music very well. I just know that he's handsome and he's tan and he lives in Hawaii and he lives a sweet life. Okay.

This song right here, it's called Upside Down. Yes. This is the guy I was talking about. This is Jack Johnson. This is actually a banger. I know. Actually, every single time I hear one of the songs, I'm like, dude, that guy. I feel like I want to go to Hawaii.

Me too. That's what I mean. That dude just exudes hanging out on the beach in Hawaii and having a velvety voice. If you told me this was Ash, I'd be like, yep. Yeah, me too. All right. Well, there you go. Successful first date follow-up and a little bit of Jack Johnson.
