Bryce is on the phone today for a first date follow-up, and he's getting ghosted by a woman named Tessa. So in a few minutes, we'll call her and see if she'll tell us why she's ghosting him and maybe get him another date. But first, Bryce, how long has it been since you heard from Tessa? Hey, yeah, it's been about nine days, I guess. Okay. All right.

That's the definite ghosting. Tell us about the date. Yeah, so, I mean, we went to this really quirky little diner pop-up that only serves pickle-themed dishes. What? Interesting. Yeah, everything had pickles in it. And, like, they had all different kinds of things. Like, they pickled lots of different stuff, too.

That's cool. So, like, even the dessert, yeah, it was super fun. Like, even the dessert had, like, elements of pickle in it. Oh, I love that sweet and salty. That's perfect. And I thought, and she, you know, I thought, I figured she would be into it because in her profile, it said, you know, adventurous with food. And I thought, like, let's just, you know, why not go full send on this one. Yeah.

Oh, that's a great idea. Yeah. It went really well. I think, you know, we had a lot of fun, too. I mean, like, we spent just hours laughing. She's hilarious. She's like one of these girls who's sarcastic, but in that way, if you're not sure if she's roasting you or. or a little bit of both maybe and it just works.

You know what I mean? Like she's yeah. You're like, you're like, slap me. Not quite. You know what I mean? But like you had a little bit of a fun edge to her.

And I like that. I need that. You know, it's good for me. And she's just, she's gorgeous. I mean, like she made eating a deep fried pickle

look like a runway moment. If you know what I mean? Like, yeah, Paris and Milan with pickles. It was amazing. Oh, you know,

like we did like, like the, we did the whole milkshake two straws, you know, like the old school rom-com, it was, it was adorable until it wasn't. So, yeah. Oh, until it wasn't. So what happened? I did, you know, like the pickle toss trick where you flick a pickle slice into your mouth. Okay.

And that did not go. Yeah, that did not go great. Um, it did not. Okay. So like I tried the thing and the pickle hit this like went behind me over my shoulder, this older lady right in the eye. Oh. Yeah, it was not great.

I apologize like a million times. Tessa laughed really hard. Like she, she thought it was hysterical. She was laughing. But I'm worried, like, maybe she thought I was a little immature or reckless. Okay.

I don't know. It's definitely an embarrassing moment. Yeah. Yeah, but she laughed. So that's kind of a good sign. Right. It was, again, though, I don't know if she's laughing at me or with me.

Yeah. One of those walks. line down the people. How did everything end with her? I mean, I thought it ended well. I thought we were going to hang out after. She seemed like it was good and then just kind of haven't heard from herself. Okay.

Bryce is on the phone and Bryce is a pickle flipper. Well, he's an attempted pickle flipper. But he's getting ghosted by a girl named Tessa and we're about to call her and see if she'll tell us why she's ghosting him and maybe get him a second date. But first, Bryce, why don't you recap your date real quick for us? Yeah, so we went to a pickle-themed pop-up for dinner, and I thought it was really great. We seemed to be having a good time until I tried a pickle flip, tried to flip a pickle into my mouth, and I missed, and I hit an old lady in the face. Oh, man.

That's rough. And I don't think that was good. Okay. Yeah, maybe that might be why. All right. Well, we'll see if hitting an old lady in the face with your pickle is the reason that you're not. getting ghosted. I couldn't help it.

I couldn't help it. But we'll see if that is the reason. Are you ready for us to call her? Yeah, I guess so. All right, here we go. Hello. Hi, may I speak to Tessa, please? Is this she?

Hey, Tessa, how are you? This is a radio show. It's called The Jubel show. Hi, Tessa. I'm Nina. Hi, I'm Victoria. Hi. And my name's Jubal.

And how you doing today, yeah? I'm okay. How are you? Good. Thank you for asking. Do you ever listen to the show? I'm not sure. Okay.

I don't. A little bit shocked. Yeah. Well, we do a segment on the show. It's called the first date follow-up. What that is, is if you go on a date and you get ghosted, you can email us and we'll call the person that's ghosting you to ask why they're ghosting. So are you ghosting somebody? Oh, my God.

This is so. Did Bryce call it? It's Bryce. It's Bryce. Yes. It's bright. We talked to him. He told us a little bit about your date.

He said he really liked you. He thought you were awesome. But he's wondering why you're ghosting him. Do you have a minute to tell us that? Yeah. Yeah, sir. It's because he's a tow shoe guy. A toe shoe?

You know those shoes? The shoes were the individual toe pockets. Oh, no. He wanted the on the date. To shoe. Yeah. Two words. He wears toe shoes.

On a date. On a date. Hey, not ironically. It wasn't ironic. He called him his pickle hunting shoes. I can't. I just can't. I can't, you guys.

Hold on a minute now. Wait a minute. Listen, those are high performance minimalist shoes, okay? Like, they promote natural foot posture. Yeah, Tessa, that's Bryce. He's on the phone listening. Hi. Hi.

Hi. I don't, I like, those are good shoes. They promote good foot posture. I'm sorry. You say that again. They promote natural football. Okay. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

They promote looking like a swamped goblin. Oh. I mean, Bryce, you got to be honest. They're kind of ugly. They are. You said you like unique guys. I don't. Yeah.

Yeah, I said I like unique guys. I didn't say I like guys who like live in a forest barefoot. Wow. So this isn't about the pickle incident at all, right? You ghosted me over my footwear. Yeah, yes, exactly, uh-huh, yes. Price, it was a lot of toe. It was an aggressive amount of toe.

I don't pretend like it wasn't. I didn't even think you were looking at my feet. Honestly, I'm surprised you know this. I wasn't. I told you at the end. They just, like, they reared their five ugly heads, just sharing the face. My toes are nice looking, just for the record. Okay.

I'm nice looking toes. My feet are not ugly. That's good. I mean, I didn't see your feet. feet. It was what the feet were in, but you, I mean, I was going to say obviously you get it, but I'm not sure that you do. Wait, but do people wear these out in public? I thought people just, like, wear them in the water and stuff. I've seen people sporting in public before. Every once in a while, I've seen, I've seen, but most of the time I thought it was just, you know,

for running or. Yeah, of course people wear them in public. They're actually better for you than regular shoes. Like your foot, your foot health is actually, it's like a huge part of your overall health. These shoes are super beneficial. Like, they're really good for you. You know, they say the stomach is the second brain. Well, but I believe your feet are like your third brain. Or third and first brain. You have two.

Okay, you got to take care of the feet. I don't think your, what? Your feeder should not be making your dating decisions then. I don't, how is it working for you? Let me ask you something, Tessa. You've dated other guys before, right? Mm-hmm. How nice were their feet?

Yeah. I don't know, I try not to see someone's feet on the first date as a rule. Okay, not on a first date, but answer the question. I know that most guys don't take care of their feet properly. It's true. It's true. It's a good question. Yeah.

I mean, look, I might ask for some statistics and facts and figures. I'm not going to, you're not wrong. You got me there. Well, think about this. All right. You liked me. You thought I was a nice guy. And I also take really good care of my feet.

They're manicured. They're in good health. You never have to worry about getting athletes foot from me. I feel like my third and fourth friend. I feel like I have a step up on the competition. I feel like selling it. I mean, clean feeder thing. Tessa, would you like to go on another day with Bryce?

I would be open if he doesn't tell me. any more of his toes. Maybe. Was it no athlete's foot's really getting you, huh? It is a, you know, most guys' feet aren't the best, though I guess it, now that I'm thinking about it, it is kind of a plus. Do you have any other shoes where I don't want to see your toes? Like anything, Vance, Converse, I mean, I'll take literally anything.

Anything else? Yes, I have other footwear, and I promise I won't wear the toe, shoes. on a date with you again. So is that a yes, Tessa? You know what? Yeah, I guess so. I'll give it another shot. But one toe out of line and I'm out of there.

All right, great. Thank you. I promise you will not regret it. I will not show you my toes until the proper time. Joubles' first date follow-up.
