First day follow up. Usually when you go out on a first date with someone and they don't call you back, you can kind of speculate on what the reason is. You know, like, oh, it's because I pick my nose and eat it. Yeah, that would do it. Yeah. Like, that could be a reason. It could.

Never been a reason in my case, but it could be a reason. It sounds personal. But it's even weirder, though, when you go out on a first date and you can't think of any reason they didn't call you back. Yeah, because then it's like, oh, my God, what did I do? What could it possibly be? And that's the situation Bethany is in right now. Bethany emailed the show because she met a dude named James,

and now he's giving her the cold shoulder. Or the not hot shoulder. The not hot. Anyway, Bethany, how are you? Hi, I'm good. How are you guys doing? Not too bad. So tell us about James.

Okay, well, James, I don't know. He's just not calling me back. I don't know why. Where did you guys meet? We met on Facebook. Okay. He was a friend of a friend. He commented on one of my posts,

you know, like everyone's on Facebook now. You're hot. Yeah. I don't know. But yeah, I guess. I just,

that's how dudes normally are when they comment like that. But anyway, sorry. So he commented on a post and then, I mean, I know, I guess he thought I was hot. I don't know.

But yeah, he commented on the post and then he asked me out and I was hot. I don't know. But yeah, he commented on the post. And then he asked me out. And it was fine. I mean, we went for a drink, like an early, you know, like a happy hour. And he came back to my place. He watched a movie. And he even, he stayed the night. Oh, wow.

That's a big deal. Yeah, it's a huge step. Yeah, I mean, we didn't go you know all the way or anything but like he had a home run huh i mean the first day you know but um yeah yeah we we slept in the same bed i thought everything went well you know yeah and then he just and then so nothing happened in the next morning was awkward? Like he just left or what? How did it end? He had to go to work.

So, you know, like we said goodbye and he was a little bit in a rush, but I didn't think it was weird. So he didn't seem, he didn't seem odd or anything. Like you make weird noises in your sleep and it bothered him. I mean, he seemed okay. He just seemed like in a bit of a hurry, but, you know, he had to go to work. Okay. I didn't think it was weird. And so when did you try and text him?

I tried, you know, I waited a day because I didn't want to seem too eager, but then I texted him like the next day and then nothing. And then how long has it been since it? It's been like a week. Okay. Okay. You guys slept in the same bed and nothing happened? I mean, we like kissed, but, you know, we didn't, a week. Okay. Okay. You guys slept in the same bed and nothing happened? I mean, we like kissed, but you know, we didn't, you know.

Okay. So you kissed, but didn't you know? I personally don't know. Does anybody want to explain? I'm not sure. Do you know, Alex? Do you know Jubal? Well, I think I know.

And I do know that Evan has only you knowed with one person his entire life. So he probably doesn't know exactly what you know me. But I do know one thing. I you knowed with one person his entire life. So he probably doesn't know exactly what. He probably doesn't know. You know me. But I do know one thing. I don't like asking questions with a question. Answering questions. I don't even know what we're doing anymore. Yeah, I mean, something must have happened though.

I mean, people say this all the time though. They do. I can't think of anything that I did. Yeah, because they don't want to admit that there's maybe something wrong with them. Or that like they can't think that the weird thing that they're doing could possibly be it. Yeah, because most think that the weird thing that they're doing could possibly be it. Yeah, because most people think the weird things that they're doing aren't weird.

And they're normal. When a lot of times they're not normal. Right. Okay, Bethany, think hard. I mean, is there anything that you did that you think might have rubbed in the wrong way? Something that he didn't like. No, I've thought about it and I've gone over the night in my head. Honestly, I can't think of anything.

Nothing. Okay. That's confusing. Like I said earlier, it's so I've gone over the night in my head. Honestly, I can't think of anything. Nothing. Okay. That's confusing. Like I said earlier, it's so weird when you can't think of a reason. All right. Well, we'll play a song and then call him and see if we can figure out why he's giving you the frigid cheek. I think cold shoulder works.

Okay. Clavicle. Clavicle. The cold clavicle. I like that better. We'll see if we can figure out why he'sicle. The cold clavicle. I like that better. If we can figure out why he's giving you the cold clavicle right after this. It's the Jubal Show. If you're just joining us, Bethany is on the phone and she got the cold clavicle of death.

The cold shoulder, the cold boulder holder. I don't know. Whatever. The cold thing. It's freezing. From a guy named James. James is not calling her back. Bethany and he went out for a happy hour about a week ago.

Ended up back at her place watching a movie. He slept over. They actually made kissing faces on each other. Nice. Before they went to sleep. Is that right, Bethany? Yeah, we kissed. Yeah, his face kissed your face before you guys went to sleep.

And then you woke up in the morning and he went to work and everything seemed fine. And now he's not calling you back and you can't figure out, you really can't think of any reason. Are you a bad kisser? No. Well, how do you know that? Have you kissed yourself? Yeah.

I've had only good reviews. Okay. Whoa. You don't know until you kiss yourself in the mirror. And I did that once. Not a good kisser. Oh no. Unfortunately.

Oh. All right. Well, I'm going to dial this phone number right now and see if we can figure out why he's not calling kisser. Oh, no. All right. Well, I'm going to dial his phone right now and see if we can figure out why he's not calling you back. OK? OK. All right. Here we go.

Hello? Hi, may I speak to Jamesames please this is he hey james how are you this is jubal from the jubal show who are you question i've been asking myself for a long time uh jubal from the jubal show it's a radio show have you ever heard of it uh no no no. No. Okay. Well, I just explained it to you. It's a radio show. I'm the host of it. My name is Jubal. With me is my hottest wife, Alex Freyash. Hi. And English Evan. Hello.

Hi. Calling you today because we got an email about you from somebody who does listen to the show. About me? Yes. All about James. That's what the email was titled. That's not what it was titled. Do you have any idea, James, why they would email us? Not really. Yes. All about James. That's what the email was titled. That's not what it was titled.

Do you have any idea, James, why they would email us? Not really. No. Okay. Would you like us to explain it to you? Yes. All right. Well, we do a segment on the show where if you go out on a date with someone and then don't call them back after, they can email us to get you on the phone and try to figure out what happened. And recently you went on a date with a woman named Bethany. Oh yeah, I did. Yep. And Bethany emailed us, told us about your date and she's also confused because you're

not calling her back and she doesn't know why. Um, okay. Uh, what do you want me to do well we'd like you to tell us why you're not calling her back she wants to know I mean we also want to know but really she wants to I mean she's nice and everything

but you know it just got weird towards the end what did she do that was weird um so basically we're at her house like after the date and i mean literally things have been fine like it was you know she said that you guys watched a movie and you slept over and she also said that like your faces were kissing at one point. Our faces were kissed. Yeah, we made out.

That's the way I describe it. Your face was kissing her face. Your face was inside her face. Yeah, or hers. I don't know whose face was inside of, but somebody's face was inside somebody's face. That's what we got from it. Yeah. So, but yeah, she said you guys made out and everything seemed fine and she literally cannot think of a reason why you wouldn't be calling her back.

She sleeps with a lizard. What? Did you say she sleeps with a lizard? Her pet iguana, to clarify. So the iguana sleeps in the bed with her? Yes. She did not mention that. No. Yeah, we were getting ready to go

to bed and then she was like, hey, hang on. I gotta get Larry. Larry. And then she comes back with a cage with an iguana in it. Oh my god. Wow. And you're like,

hey, where's Larry? I thought this was going to get really interesting. So I put the iguana in bed with you guys to sleep. Yes. I was like, this is Larry. And she said, yes. So that made you uncomfortable, I'm assuming?

I mean, do you like sleeping with iguanas? I mean, I never have. I might. But I probably wouldn't. Yeah. And, like, I didn't want to be rude, so I, like, stayed on my, like, upper half of the bed and crunched my legs up and, like, tried to fall asleep.

Yeah. I would be scared. Yeah. How big was this iguana? It was like probably a foot and a half, two feet. Wow, big. That's a big Larry iguana. Like, no.

Yeah, I don't know if I'd want to sleep in the same bed as an iguana named Larry either. So I guess I don't really blame you. Thanks for being honest with us, James. Yeah. I mean, you know, like, no disrespect, but like, and she was just acting like it was a human being, too.

Like, she was talking to it like it was a human being named Larry. That's pretty weird. Well, iguanas have feelings, too, I guess. Hey, James, I do have to let you know something before we say goodbye to you.

What? I don't know if Larry the iguana is around, but I do know that Bethany is actually on the other line listening and wants to talk to you. What? What do you mean? She could hear everything? Yeah, yeah. I could, James. I can hear.

I mean, I don't know why you have a problem with a pet. Seems a little weird to me. I could, James. I've been here. I mean, I don't know why you have a problem with a pet. Seems a little weird to me. I mean, Larry's my pet. I love him. Larry is an iguana that you let sleep on your bed.

Yeah, some people sleep with their dogs and cats. I mean, yeah, okay, so mine's an iguana. I mean, I kept him in the cage. It's not like I took him, usually I take him out of the cage, but I was trying to show some respect, because I know you haven't slept with an iguana before. First time where you keep it in the cage, after that you snuggle

up with it? Is that how it works? Yeah. Oh, sorry, dumb question. I mean, I guess, thank you. Iguanas get out of their cages all the time. I'm sorry. I let him out of the cage.

I was like, he's out of the cage half the time we're together. Look, Larry is snuggly. He's sweet. He's my pet. I just, I don't understand why you have a problem. Like some people are dog moms. I'm an iguana mom. Okay.

Well, I am. An iguana mom, okay? Well, I am. An iguana mom. Okay. Yeah. And I mean, if you don't want to cuddle up to Larry, then I don't want you cuddling up to me. Ooh. Damn, this has changed.

Hey, real quick, though, before we get there, James, would you like to go out on another date with Bethany? We'll pay for it. Um, no. I'm sorry for it. Um, no, I'm sorry. No, you sure? Yeah.

The Guana mom thing is just, I'm not an Iguana dad. Good. You don't deserve me or Larry. The Jubal show on demand. Ugh. We're so done with New Year, New You. This year, it's more you on Bumble.
