First Date Follow Up - The Jubal Show - Christa & Charlie: One Tiny Moment in the Uber Ended This Date Before It Started

Episode Date: June 18, 2026

Christa thought her rooftop astronomy date with Charlie was headed in the right direction—even after a clumsy mishap that had everyone staring. They laughed, talked for hours, and seemed to have real chemistry. But six days later, Charlie completely vanished. When The Jubal Show's First Date Follow Up tracks him down, the reason for the ghosting has nothing to do with spilled drinks, awkward moments, or bad conversation. Instead, it all comes down to one unexpected interaction during the ride home that Charlie says he simply couldn't get past. Was it a misunderstanding, a red flag, or something completely ridiculous? Listen to find out if Christa can clear the air and turn this ghosting into a second chance. Ever been ghosted after what you thought was an amazing date? Do you REALLY want that Second Date? The Jubal Show has your back! On First Date Follow Up, we track down the person who disappeared to get the real reason why. Awkward, hilarious, and sometimes downright shocking—First Date Follow Up delivers the truth, whether you want to hear it or not. Will there be a second date or just secondhand embarrassment?

Krista is on the phone today for a first date follow-up, and she's getting ghosted by a guy named Charlie. So in a few minutes, we're going to call him and see if I'll tell us why he's ghosting her. And maybe get her a second date. But first, Krista, how long has it been since you heard from Charlie? Hi, it's been about six days, six days, texted twice.

Did you guys, like, how did you leave the date? Did you have a plan to see each other again? We would. I guess it seemed like there was, yeah, potential for a call. I thought that it ended as well. But then again, I don't know, maybe there was, I made this, well, I kind of made a mess at the event that we... What do you mean by that?

Okay, so, like, so we met at this, it was actually really cool. There was this rooftop astronomy event thing. Like, there were, like, all these telescopes, and there was, like, live jazz. Oh, wow. Yeah, no, it was amazing. And there were, like, cocktails in teapots, and we were, like, using cocktails out of teacups. It was really cute. That's really cute.

Super cute. I am not the most graceful person. And I accidentally, I was like looking through this telescope and I just accidentally knocked over this tray of the tea cups. And it landed. So there was this is this broader guy there. And basically I spilled like a bunch of cocktails over this like really fancy. the star chart that's this like a show. Oh, man.

Yeah. And everyone saw and everyone gasped and it was really not cute. But actually like it's funny because Charlie was like really sweet about it and like laughed about it and helped me clean it up with you know these like meager like cocktail napkins. It was so I mean, I think you know that was not great. but I still thought that, you know, we had like a new home and I thought that things were going well. I'm glad he helped you clean up because what was he supposed to do?

It would be like, oh, I'm not with her. And just bowels. Exactly. That is pretty embarrassing, though. I'm sorry that happened to you. Yes, me too. But it's like, yeah, not the first time, not the last. Sure.

Okay. Did the date continue past the rooftop or was that the spot? Yeah, no. We, we, like, talked after that super embarrassing incident and, like, I don't know. We, we had a new girl home. We, like, talked about music. And I just, I thought that there was a spark. I mean, I know I made a mess.

But, like, I was really nervous. And I'm, like I said, I'm kind of a clumsy person. So I don't know. Krista is on the phone and she's getting ghosted by a dude named Charlie. So we're about to call him. And see if he'll tell us why he's ghosting her. and maybe get her a second date. But before we do that, Krista, why don't you break down your situation for us again real quick?

Yeah, so I met Charlie at this astronomy event with like telescopes and all this stuff. And while we were there, I like build a bunch of drinks over this like star chart. And maybe that was the reason. But like, I don't know. We just like clicked even after that and took an Uber home and like chatted. Did the Star chart ruin the event? I hope not I mean

I'm just curious I know that the guy who is like running it was really upset Oh Yeah no it was definitely like not the thing to do All right well we'll see if that is the reason Are you ready for us to call him? Yeah, all right let's do this Hello

Hi may I speak to Charlie please This is Charlie Hey Charlie how are you this is a radio show It's called The Jubal Show. Hi, Charlie. I'm Nina. Hi, I'm Victoria. And my name's Jubal.

What's up? Oh, really? How are you? Yeah. I'm pretty good. Why is the radio show calling me? We're calling you because we do a segment on the show called the first date follow-up. That's where if you go out on a date with somebody and they end up ghosting you, that person can email us to get you on the phone and ask why you're ghosting them.

So we got an email about you from somebody, Charlie. Did you know who it is? Or do you think you know who it is? I mean, I mean, I've got a pretty good idea right now. Really? Who do you think it is? Would it happen to be Krista by chance? Yes, it is Krista.

I was Philly. You got it right. You won nothing, I guess. But yes, it is Krista. Do you mind telling us why you're ghosting Krista? She's really curious. She said she liked you a lot, but can't figure it out. I feel like this sounds weird without the context, but she's just me and an Uber.

And I just, I don't want any part of that. What? I have to explain. Okay. We were taking an Uber, and she just starts just casually singing every lyric to this early 2000's boy band song. And when I say it's singing, I mean like every single line. She's doing the Corey Dress number and everything. And, you know, whatever.

I like myself. She likes her stuff. That's cool. But in the middle of it, I try asking her a question. And she just aggressively just... Like, and I'm just, I'm not trying to date someone who's just comfortable disrespect to me with, it's like a violent, you know. Okay. Okay, see if I felt disrespectful with the shish.

There's a very disrespectful, you know. Yeah, I guess that's true. There are different ways you can shush somebody. Yeah. And there's a disrespectful way for sure. Yeah, this was full, you know, finger up in the face, spit coming out of the mouth when she, so it just wasn't a good look. So that's, that's it, though. Other than that, it was good?

I mean, before, yeah, but, you know, I'm sure a lot of good things happened before terrible things happened and you don't just look back on the good things and try to ignore the bad. So, you know, life is short and I'm not going to tolerate that sort of thing. Yeah. Okay. Before you know, you could be married for years and then you think back like, man, if I would have just paid attention to that shush.

Yeah, I haven't spoken in 15 years. Yeah. Yeah. They're lingering. Shush. Hey, I'm walking proof. Don't let that happen to yourself. I get it. Well, Charlie, thank you for being honest with us. Krista is actually on the phone and wants to talk to you. Wait, she's here? You mean she actually let me talk without Shish and me?

Yeah, I guess. See if she continues. What? I thought it wasn't that bad. Yes, hi. I'm here. Oh, yeah. She's here. Yeah. Hi, Krista. Like, for real? So, like, how are you going to ghost me over singing a song? I was just into it. Do you not like you? music? Like what? Oh, no, no. I like music. It's just you're really downplaying it. You're saying you were just singing. You were just full on choreography, dance number like we were in a music video. And look, I thought it was kind of cute, but you shush me like your librarian on steroids or something. And again, you just turn into a different person. And like I said, it was disrespectful.

It was bye by by. Like honestly, dude, who tries to chat? during an in sync classic you know what I mean? Do you have like librarian issues or like what's the deal? Well, it made me want to say bye bye bye to you, okay? It was really disrespectful. It had big, it had to be quiet peasant energy to it. And look, I just haven't been just that way since third grade story time. So maybe I do have some trauma that you're unlocking.

I think you do. I think you do. Oh my God. It was really meant to be a fun shush. Like I really, it's like you're acting like I threw something at you. Like I, it was like a sarcastic shush. Well, Charlie, would you like to go on another date with Krista? We'll pay for it.

Look, I don't like being disrespected. Nobody does. And throughout all of this, I just heard a bunch of excuses. I haven't heard any apologies or even any reasons why I should give you another chance. So tell you what, if you can give me a reason and I'll let you speak without shush and you because I'm respectful, then maybe. but if not then I'm out. Okay.

All right. I'm Charlie. I'm very sorry for the power. I got lost in the moment with in sync. The beat took over me. Here is why you should definitely take me out again. Okay. I bake really good cookies.

Like, handsop eating them cookies. I'm really silly, obviously. And yes, I, I do sometimes break out into spontaneous dance breaks. That's kind of my love language. I have awesome relationships with both of my parents, so I don't have any family drama, and I volunteer at a rescue on weekends.

So, you know, if you have a pup, then we're basically soulmates. Charlie? I'm not doing a lot. That was pretty good, you know, fresh cookies. Look, honestly, I might need to see a therapist, so whatever happened to me in third grade. But apology accepted. Look, on the condition, no more weaponized shushing. Otherwise, then I will be saying bye, bye, bye, bye.

So, second date it is. Hey! Hey! Congratulations. Christopher the win. Jubil's first date follow-up. Joy is essential and it's also elusive. But now, there's a new and excited.
