First date follow-up!
Sitting in the park
waiting for you
you you
oldie but a goodie
What was that?
That was Billy Stewart sitting
in the park and neither Alex or
English Evan has any respect for the oldies that I listen to.
No, thank you.
I haven't heard that song.
I know.
I'm just like, I only know it because he sings it like that.
Do you want me to play it?
I can play it for you.
I mean, if your heart desires.
Oh, God.
I keep that song is going to be stuck in my head this whole time now because apparently
the woman on the phone for our first date fall today went to a park and had a picnic
with the guy that she isn't getting a call back from.
What's her name?
Her name is Michelle.
Michelle, what's up?
How are you?
Do you know that song?
I actually don't know that song.
Maybe you need to sing a little more of it.
You don't?
Thank you.
Three to one.
Everybody, for next Christmas, I'm giving you all a Lowrider Oldies CD.
A CD.
It's just going to sit there, though.
It's not going to be played or used or anything.
Collect dust and then be given the
goodwill.
Okay.
Anyway, enough about Billy Stewart and sitting in the park.
Apparently Michelle was sitting in the park waiting for, uh, what's the guy's name that
you went out with?
Raj.
So tell us a little bit about Raj.
How'd you guys meet?
Yeah.
So we were actually set up by a friend and she knew that I had never been to a picnic
before. So I thought that was really cute that this guy for our first date, you know, he set up by a friend and she knew that I had never been to a picnic before. So I thought
that was really cute that this guy for our first date, you know, he set up a picnic.
Any picnic meal has to be a dip heavy meal.
Yeah.
Cheese, cheese spreads or dipping sauces.
And usually fruit too.
There was fruit. You definitely need something that's easy to eat. You don't want something
super messy like chicken wings.
Yeah. Oh no no no thank you but unless if it's messy then you get to like lick
it off the other person's fingers maybe ew yeah if the picnic's going well did it go that well
did you guys lick sauces off each other fingers we did not but we did have we had a lot in common
which i thought was great like that's cool yeah he Yeah, he seems pretty cool. He had a good sense of humor.
Like, we just had, I felt like we were vibing, but I don't know.
I just haven't heard from him, so I thought I'd reach out to you guys to find out what's
going on.
So you haven't heard from him.
How did the date end?
Did you guys do a little make out at the park?
We didn't, like, we kissed on the cheek.
Okay.
Okay.
So, like, it wasn't overly romantic, but it was still, you know, it was within the boundaries of like, I'm interested in more.
Yeah.
It's not licking hot sauce off of your fingers.
Is that hot?
No, we didn't have that kind of chemistry off the bat.
So, but there's nothing like during the date that you can think of that went wrong or like would be the reason that he's not calling you back?
I mean, I've been thinking about that because, you know, I'm a girl and that's what I do.
And it seems like maybe it was because, like, you know, you brought it up.
You're like, what did people eat at the picnic?
Well, I really didn't eat that much.
I have a strict diet plan that I'm on.
So maybe he felt like, I mean, he didn't ask me about it.
Is that like a New Year's resolution or something?
I'm just really into staying clean. And I've been I have goals for like my workouts. And I'm just I'm trying to
stay true to that. So I mean, what did you eat or drink? Did you did you consume anything?
Well, I did. I had I had a glass of wine because, you know, that's that's allowed on my plan. But,
you know, he had a lot of different, and I'm not eating dairy right now.
I'm not eating wheat.
He had wheat crackers.
There was some vegetables, so I ate the vegetables and the fruit.
So this dude made a whole picnic for your date, and you didn't have any of it, really?
Yeah.
I mean, that's the only thing I can think of.
I felt really bad because he basically brought a charcuterie board, and I mean, I can't really eat any of that stuff.
Charcuterie boards are good. Good job on saying the word. It's a fun word to say, charcuterie board and I mean, I can't really eat any of that stuff. Charcuterie boards are good.
Good job on saying the word.
It's a fun word to say, charcuterie board.
Can you spell it?
It's really hard.
All right.
So the reason you think he's not calling you back is because of not eating his food.
Do you think he was offended or I mean, what would the reason for that be?
I don't, I mean, we were, I thought we were pretty chill with each other, but maybe he
thought that that was me being high maintenance.
Maybe I just expected lobster or something.
I don't know.
And then once you said no to the charcuterie,
that's when it all went downhill.
It's like, oh, fine.
You don't want any of my charcuterie?
Screw you.
Did you guys text or talk at all after your date?
I think I sent a, hey, thanks.
That was fun.
And he said something like,
yeah,
let's do it again sometime
and then nothing
ever happened.
Okay.
That sounds electric.
Yeah,
I don't,
you know,
I don't know,
it's weird.
Well,
play a song,
come back,
call him
and then see
if it was you
refusing his
charcuterie board
that's causing him
not to call you back,
okay?
Okay.
All right, we'll do it next.
It's the Jubilee Show.
Right in the middle of your first date follow-up,
and this is just a warning.
The first date that Michelle went on with this dude,
what's his name, by the way, Michelle?
Raj.
Raj.
It was steamy, hot and steamy.
So hot.
How did you get hot and steamy out of that?
Well, they went to the park.
He made a picnic.
They ate food.
Well, she didn't eat most of the food because she's on a diet.
But there was a charcuterie board involved and a kiss on the cheek.
And now she's not getting a call back.
If that's not the description of one of the sexiest dates you've ever heard of, I don't know what is.
That would be a fun date.
So sorry for that if you got kids in the car.
She really liked him and thought everything went fine.
But now he's not calling her back. And she thinks the reason that he's not calling her back is
because she seemed high maintenance because she wouldn't eat the food that he made for the picnic.
Yep. Michelle, how long has it been since your date?
It's been like a week and a half.
Okay. That's a bit of time.
Yeah.
Okay. And when was the last time you heard from him?
The day after the date.
Maybe he's making charcuterie boards for someone else now. Maybe he's researching.
Yeah. All right. Well, I'm going to dial his phone number right now and see if we can figure
out why he's not calling you back. Okay. Awesome. Thanks. Okay, here we go. Hello? Hi, may I speak to Raj?
This is he.
Raj, how are you?
This is Jubal from The Jubal Show.
And Alex.
And Evan.
Have you heard the show before ever?
I don't think so.
Okay.
Well, good morning.
Well, I'll give you a little bit of information about the show.
It's the three of us.
My name's Jubal.
I'm Alex. And me, Evan. Yeah. So that's The you a little bit of information about the show. It's the three of us. My name's Jubal. I'm Alex.
And me, Evan.
Yeah.
So that's the Jubal show.
I get really thrown off.
I do things the same way every time, and when something different happens, I get really
thrown off.
That's another thing you need to know about the show.
It's also a radio show.
And one of our listeners emailed us about you, Raj.
Mm-hmm.
Okay.
Any idea why?
I have no idea. You tell me.
So you recently went on a date with a girl named Michelle.
Yes. Yes, I did. A couple of weeks ago.
Went on a picnic.
And has some charcutes.
Yeah. I put a lot of time and effort into a cheese board. So she emailed us because she said she really likes your date and enjoyed going out with you and is wondering why you're not calling her back.
Really?
That's why you guys are calling?
Yeah, we do a segment on the show where if you go on a date with someone and then they don't call you back,
we call that person and awkwardly ask them why.
And that's what we're doing right now.
Again, my name is Jubal.
And I'm Alex.
Me, Evan. Yep. And that's what we're doing right now. Again, my name is Jubal. And I'm Alex. Me, Evan.
Yeah.
And that's what we're asking you.
Is there a reason that you don't want to go out with Michelle again?
Well, I mean, I don't know.
She's a nice girl.
We had a good time, but I just, I don't know.
I don't think this is going to go anywhere.
Is it because of the differences you had in food choice?
I mean, I guess I was a little annoyed that I put a lot of time and effort into making this cheese board,
which, by the way, they're not cheap.
Cheese is expensive.
It is.
Cheese is super expensive, and then the prosciutto, the salami, like all that stuff,
and all she did was she had like a couple of berries.
She thinks the reason that you're not calling her back is because she was on a diet and didn't really eat the food that you brought.
I mean, that was kind of weird,
but that really wasn't the reason why.
Okay.
This is going to make me sound crazy,
but when she picked up her wine glass from the ground
and put it up to her face,
her bicep bulged.
Like huge.
Her bicep bulged?
Her bicep bulged?
Yeah.
Like she was jacked.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
Well, how tall is she?
She's like 5'9".
Okay.
She's buff. Okay.". Okay. But she's buff.
Okay.
She likes to work out.
She picked up her wine glass and almost crushed it with her hands because she's got such huge biceps.
I guess I was a little intimidated by it because I'm nowhere near that good of shape.
She's beautiful.
She's super attractive, but that bicep,
I don't know.
I started thinking,
what happens if this turns into something
and we're getting intimate
and then she breaks my neck or something.
I don't know.
I don't think that's how it works.
You could probably ask her.
She sounds reasonable.
We talked to her.
You could probably ask her
to take it easy on you.
Yeah.
It'd be a weird request and I didn't know how to handle it so i just kind of kind of just put it put it put it on the back of my head yeah okay so the reason that you don't
want to go out with her again is because she has bigger biceps than you yeah very very strong
okay thanks for being honest with us raj yeah i appreciate it also i feel like i should be honest
with you now and let you know,
Michelle is actually on the other line listening and wants to talk to you.
Hey, Raj.
Hey.
You were listening the whole time?
Yep.
So now she's angry.
Uh-oh.
Uh-oh, Raj.
Are you angry?
He doesn't like me when I'm angry, Raj.
Are you angry about that, Michelle?
Or is that just weird for you to hear?
That he doesn't want to go out with you again because your biceps are big?
I'm honestly
shocked. Like, I'm not
that big.
Like, I'm still soft, like
yoga strong. I'm not like
throwing tires strong.
Oh, come on. You're so much bigger than yoga strong. I'm not like throwing tires strong. Oh, come on. You are so much bigger than yoga strong.
So like floored that this is the reason that you haven't texted back. Like I get it. That sounds embarrassing. Like I didn't realize that I was that threatening to you, but.
Yeah. I didn't realize that I was that threatening to me either. But then I don't know know. I saw your arms when you were drinking the wine and hardly touching the cheese board.
Is it just because she's got bigger muscles than you or are you scared of her?
I don't understand what the issue is.
Do you not want to live that lifestyle or have a girlfriend that is like that?
I don't know.
Yeah.
I don't know.
I guess maybe it just makes me feel super small.
I mean, next to you.
Well, hey, if you want to work out together, that's totally fine.
Or you can just embrace it, Raj, and just let her hold you in her big arms at night.
Yeah, you could be Little Spoon.
And just literally sweep me off my feet.
Raj, would you like to go out with Michelle again on another date? We'll pay for it.
I'll wear long sleeves.
So what do you think, Raj?
If she covers up her enormous biceps that scare you,
would you go out with her again?
You know what?
You don't have to wear long sleeves.
I thought you were gorgeous.
And, you know, I did have a great time with you.
Aw.
And I was just being stupid.
You know, I'm glad we did this
because I would actually really like to go on another date with you.
Oh, wow.
Okay.
It's been a while.
Yeah.
This is exciting.
Michelle, do you want to go out with him again,
or are you offended?
I would like to because I want to see where this goes.
This is interesting.
Aw, congrats, guys.
We did it.
Woo-hoo.
