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, Elijah, how long has it been since you heard from Isabel?

Oh, let's see. It's been, it's been like a week. So I've obviously been ghosted. Okay. Maybe she was busy. Let's just kind of flesh it out a little bit before we jump to conclusions. Um, I don't know. Okay.

So have you been trying to hit her up? How is that? Yeah, of course. Okay. I even texted her yesterday. I had nothing. Okay. Well, let's talk about the date then.

How was that? Oh, the day was amazing. Like, ah, I took her to this really nice Italian place, you know, the waiters pretend to be your friend. It was so nice. They had the candles. It was romantic. It was fun.

We had a really good conversation. We were laughing about our bad dating experiences. Ah, the energy was just amazing. So did you feel like she was as into it as you were? Oh my gosh. Yes. She just made it so easy, like effortless. And she was like into me

and then she was like challenging me and I was like, oh, I loved it. Like challenging you to like a fight like outside? No, not like a fight like that. But I'd be down. OK, now I know why you're getting ghosted.

Playful, playful. Come on now. Of course, of course. But why do you think you're getting ghosted. Playful, playful, come on now. Of course, of course. But why do you think you're getting ghosted? I don't... dude, I honestly, I think I know. It's this olive thing that I did. You say olive thing that you did? Yeah, yeah, yeah.

She told me she hated olives and I was trying to be funny and creative and I put an olive on the fork and I fed it to her and she looked absolutely mortified. Well, if she hates them then she didn't. Were you just trying to stuff it down her throat? I don't know. I thought she would like change her mind and try a different thing. I love olives. So I was like, how could someone I don't know what I was doing. So she said I don't like olives and you're like here. Pretty much. So, how did you recover after the olive stuffing?

Man, I don't think I recovered. Did the mood after the day after the olive incident change? A hundred percent. I thought I recovered, but now like if she ghosted me and I, that's gotta be it, man. Well, how did the date end? I mean, the date ended with con. I mean, we kissed, but that was, I don't look, it was like, we're having good vibes.

The olive thing happened. The olive thing passed. I thought we left on good terms, but I'm really, really analyzing this. Like, this has got to be it. What did, what was the last thing she said to you? Let me think. She, I was like, so we should do this again, right? And she was like, yeah.

Okay. She was either just being really nice. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Obviously she hasn't texted you at all or gotten back to any of your. Nothing. No, completely ghosted.

And I was trying to be funny. Like with my last text, I was like, ah, I found a new olive pizza place and I don't know if I'm clever, but that a new olive pizza place in a That is funny that's funny She didn't text All right, well see we can figure it out for you We'll play a song come back and then call her and see if she'll tell us why she's ghosting you and maybe get you Another date if you still want one, okay?

If you're just joining us for today's first date follow-up, Elijah is on the phone and he's getting ghosted by Isabelle. So we're about to call her and see if she'll tell us why she's ghosting him. But first, Elijah, why don't you recap your date for us real quick? Okay. We had a really good date. Our energy was amazing.

We're being fun, being playful. I took her to this amazing Italian restaurant and then the olive incident. He, she told me she hates olives, but I was being fun and playful, and I fed her an olive and she looked mortified. And I don't think I ever recovered. I just don't picture you feeding it. I picture you stuffing it down her throat.

Holding her down and being like, eat the olive. I was being playful, guys. Believe you, believe you, you know. All right, well, are you ready for us to call her? Yeah, let's do it. All right, here we go. Hello? Hi, man, I speak to Isabel? This is Isabel.

Hey Isabel, how are you? My name is Jubal. I'm calling from a radio show. It's called the Jubal Show. Hi Isabel. I'm Nina, also on the show. Hi, and I'm Victoria. How are you doing?

Um, okay. What is this? Have you ever listened to this show before? Yeah, is this one of those like radio, like, I don't know, like awkward. I don't know what is this? The radio part is right. The radio part is right. We do a segment on the show called the first date follow up.

That's where if you go out on a date with someone and then you ghost them, 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 that you've been on a date with. Wait, people really do this, okay? Yes, they do. Do you know who would email us about you? It's Elijah, isn't it?

Yes, it is. Elijah emailed us, we talked to him a little bit about your date, and he told us that he really liked you, thought you guys hit it off. He did say that he knows that trying to shove an olive down your throat was probably not the best move, but he's wondering if that's the reason you're ghosting him. I just, I don't trust him. Okay, because of the olive?

No, it's like, I mean, yes, but it's like, I don't know. It's like the man's like too smooth. How so? Wait, what? Do you think charming is a crime now? Is that Elijah? Elijah, is that you? Yes, that's Elijah.

He's actually on the phone and wants to talk to you. Okay. Yeah, it's not just that. It's like, okay, so the waiter asked if he'd been there before and he's like, oh yeah, I love this place. And five minutes's not just that. It's like, okay. So the waiter asked if he'd been there before and he's like, Oh yeah, I love this place. And five minutes later he tells me he's never been, you know? Oh, come on. I was just trying to cool my voice. Like I was a regular, I was panicked. Yeah. And then you said you speak a little Italian

and then you proceeded to butcher the only sentence you attempted. I mean, I've been trying on Duolingo, so I know a little. So maybe he's trying and just not good at it. And then let's not forget the olive incident, which apparently you've talked about. I knew it. I knew it. I was, come on. You got to admit I was trying to be cute. You were trying to be forceful.

I said I didn't like olives and then you went full like, oh, trust me, you'll like it. And I did not. So were you lying during the day, Elijah? No, I wasn't lying. Yes, I had been there. I mean, I've been around the area. I just haven't been there to stay. And I've been practicing my my duo linger.

So I know a little bit Come on So the waiter asked if I had been there and you know, I've been around the road I haven't actually been inside so I kind of bit there Why would you even lie about that? It doesn't make any sense. I was just trying to have conversation with the waiter. You lied. I mean, I kind of get it, though. I was being fun and playful, you know, come on. It wasn't funny to me or playful.

It just makes you seem fake. I don't know. It's fun and playful to say you haven't been there before. You don't have to lie to have a conversation. It just makes you feel phony to me. I don't, it's like, okay, well what else is he lying about? Oh my God. I was just trying to live my truth here. Gee.

No, that's the opposite of what you're doing. I mean, I've been around there, so I've kind of been there. Okay. So other than that, Isabel, is that really the one holdup for you? Is that really why you don't want to see Elijah again? Yeah, I don't, I don't know. I don't do well with fast talkers who overcommit. Sorry. Wow. I don't know. It's just like, how do I know you're not lying about everything? Like I'm, I'm like thinking back to the day and I'm like wait, did you actually go backpacking in the Sierras? Okay, did you actually like run a food truck with your brother? I like don't know what's real

Well, I mean me and my brother honestly, we've talked about a food truck Well is about would you like to go out with Elijah again we'll pay for it no So it's basically what I'm saying. All right. This is wild. Well, is about what you like to go out with Elijah again. We'll pay for it. No. What? Come on, give me one more chance. How are you this delusional?

I don't understand. Seriously, is this all just because of the olive? No, it's because you're a liar. I'm not a liar. What are you? Oh. Jubil's first date follow-up, powered by the Advocates Injury Attorney,
