First date follow up.

Bobby is on the phone today for a first day and follow up and he's getting ghosted by Mila.
So in a second, we're going to call her and see if she'll tell us why she's ghosting him and hopefully get him another date.
But first, Bobby, how long has it been since you heard from Mila?
Hey there.
It's been about 10 days.
Have you tried to reach out to her in those 10 days?
Yeah, I've texted her like twice.
I sent her a meme or two, but it's been nothing.
Okay, well, why don't you tell us about the date?
Sure. Yeah. So we met at a potluck that a mutual friend was throwing. And it was her idea to make, you know, everyone to bring like a homemade dish thing. And I love to cook. I love being in the kitchen. So I brought my mom's like famous egg casserole. And mine had been slightly overcooked, but it was still edible and I think really good. And Mila showed up with like this like amazing like professional charcutory board.
so many different cheeses I could not stop eating it.
And we talked for like the entire night, like for so long, you know, it was like it was a really good vibe.
That's great.
So did you feel like Mila was into the vibe?
Did she love that you were eating her cheese?
Yeah.
Absolutely.
Like we, we were talking with a group outside and it felt like it was just us too.
Because like we were just talking between us like the entire time, like back and forth.
And like we were talking about like cooking.
to like the best way to make walk,
which I have some very strong feelings about.
So, I mean, it felt really
natural and good.
Why do you think she might be ghosting you?
Okay, well,
the only thing I can think is that
I might have like overdone it
at the potluck.
Like we, I think I tried to impress her too much.
But basically, she mentioned that how much
she loves Flan.
And I
tried to like whip one up from
scratch just like using whatever I could find in the kitchen.
Uh-huh.
Um, I thought it would be like really cute and romantic.
Um, but it did not go very well.
Like I, I set off the smoke alarm.
Uh, and, uh, the flon turned out more like, like a soup.
It's pretty impressive that you were able to make an impromptu flon.
Yeah.
I'm just trying to picture it.
She's like, I love flan and you go, bet.
Watch this.
Yeah, I might have, I might have been feeling a little too confident.
Okay. And did the flaunt taste any good?
You know, it did taste it fine. The consistency was a little weird.
But she, like, laughed it off, you know.
But then she got, like, kind of quiet after that.
So I don't know, like, I don't know if I did give her the egg or I don't know.
I just like, how do you recover from a fire alarm?
I mean, that's quite a, like, I mean, or the whole party's got to stop for a second and then restart up again.
Yeah, I mean, you just quit.
We just ripped the smoke alarm out of the ceiling.
It was no big deal.
All right.
And so the flan or the failed flan, I guess, is the only thing you can think of that might be the reason that she's ghosting you.
Yeah, because, like, everything else went, like, so naturally at the party.
So I don't know.
Tell us what happened with Mila again.
Yeah.
So we met at a potluck, but a mutual friend put together.
And we really hit it off.
We were, like, talking all night.
And then I tried to impress her by, like, making a flound from scratch, and it did not go very well.
But it's not like anyone got hurt or anything, but, you know, I think I might have just turned her off.
I don't know.
I've never known anybody that's gotten injured from a flawn.
Flon.
But it could happen.
It's possible.
Well, we'll see.
Are you ready for us to call her?
Yes.
Okay.
Here we go.
I'm going to dial her phone number right now.
Hi, man.
Speak to Mila, please.
This is she.
Mila, how are you?
This is the Jubal show.
It's a radio show.
Hi, Mila.
I'm Nina.
Hi, I'm Victoria.
And I'm Jubal.
How are you doing?
Oh, my God.
Are you serious?
Yeah.
Do you listen to a show ever?
I have heard you guys before.
This is wild.
Thank you.
Well, if you've never heard a first date follow-up, what you do on the show.
That's a segment where if you're ghosting somebody, you can email us, and then we call
that person and see if they'll tell us why you're ghosting them.
So we got an email about you from somebody.
Do you know who would email us?
Is it about it?
about Bobby?
Yes, it is about Bobby.
He told us all about meeting you at the party and said it's been about 10 days.
I thought you guys really hit it off, liked you a lot, but doesn't know why you're not calling him back.
Would you mind telling us?
Sure.
So, okay, first off, Bobby's sweet, really sweet, but he's kind of chaotic.
Okay.
Okay.
The potluck was fun, but I've never seen someone try to make a flan out of,
of nothing.
He told us about that.
He thinks that him trying to make a flon and then setting off the fire alarm and all that
stuff might be the reason that you're ghosting.
Oh, no.
I mean, it was, it was very sweet.
It was kind of insane, but it was very sweet.
But there was this girl there, Emily, who would not stop flirting with him.
She was trying to help him.
She was like, oh, my God, you're so brave for making the flan.
It's amazing.
What?
What?
It was not an amazing flan, you know, and I'm just, I'm not interested in chasing anyone.
That's not how you define bravery.
Well, I mean, the fire alarm did go off, so, you know.
I'm just, I'm not interested in, like, fighting over some guy, you know.
He's nice, but.
He said he texted you a couple times.
Yeah, but, I mean, I just, it seems messy and chaotic and not for me.
Like you'd think the other girl that was flirting with him, he's also interested in her?
I mean, I assume so because she was so flirty.
So I'm just kind of like, that's cool.
Do your thing, you know?
Did he flirt back, though?
Was he given her the time of day?
I mean, he was so excited about the flan that I'm not sure.
He just seemed really, really excited about everything.
So it was hard to tell?
Yeah.
You're like someone who's a little less excited about life?
There was just a chaotic element to it that I'm just not sure about, you know?
Okay.
Okay.
Well, thank you for telling us why you're not calling him back.
Speaking of chaos, Mila, I don't know if you know this or not, but Bobby is actually on the phone and wants to talk to you.
Oh, God.
He's been listening.
Hey, Mila.
What's up?
Hi.
Wait, wait, Mila, you really think Emily was flirting with me?
Really?
Yeah, she ate two pieces of that flan.
Like, nobody wanted to eat that one.
No, that's right.
Well, I thought she was just being nice.
I mean, she was being nice, but, like, Anna, get into your pants kind of way.
Oh.
I mean, she was, like, grabbing your arm while you were cooking,
and she kept, like, laughing at literally everything he said.
I mean, this is what women do when they're into you.
I guess I didn't notice.
Honestly, I was really just trying to make sure I didn't, like, burn up the,
the kitchen.
You all fair, because he almost did.
Mila, where were you this whole time?
Like, were you off in a corner watching him make it while Emily was flirting with him?
Or were you standing there trying to, like, still get attention?
No, I was kind of off in the corner at that point.
Like, I sensed it and I just was like, I'm out.
You know, like, it's just, I don't know.
Maybe it's like self-defense.
I'm just not interested in getting in the middle of, like, something that was clearly
happening, like, you know?
Yeah. No, I get that. Sometimes you're just too tired to, like, to fight for it and be like, look at me. I'm so cute. Like, it's exhausting. Yeah. But. Yeah. Yeah. I don't really do that. You know, I was just kind of like, you're sweet. Go have fun. She's all over you. Like, try not to burn anything down. Well, Mila, would you like to go on another date with Bobby? We'll pay for it.
I mean, I guess I misread it because I thought you were into Emily. But if she's not in the picture, I would be open to that.
Oh, yay.
Not cooking, though.
There you go, Bobby.
You got another date with Mila?
Well, actually, now that I, like, know this about Emily, I think I kind of want to text her.
What?
What?
Wow.
I thought you went into Emily.
Shameless.
Well, I mean, she's, like, really into me like that.
Then, like, I'd kind of be stupid not to go for it.
What?
Oh, my.
Well, I guess I did read it, right?
Oh.
Um, I don't know what to do now.
I feel really weird.
Yeah, I mean, Mila, like, no offense, but like, thank for telling me.
Like, you're awesome.
You're really cool.
Like, your guac recipe sounds awesome, but, um, I mean, Emily's, like, really pretty.
And, like, way out of my league.
Oh, wow.
Wow.
Interesting.
All right.
Wow.
Back to that chaotic thing.
Mila, thank you for your time.
And Bobby, good luck with Emily, I guess.
Mila, I'm sorry.
Wow.
That's okay.
Kind of what I expected, to be honest.
So there you go.
Wow, guys, thanks so much for doing this.
This is so cool.
