Why, it's the Jubal Show with your drunk aunt Mina. Hi. And then there's everybody's younger sister, Victoria Ramirez. Hi. And who could forget the newest member of the show, The Hip Divorce, who loves scrolling on hinge, almost as much as he loves his college-aged daughter, producer Freeze. Good morning.

And then there's me, I'm Jubal, and this is the Jubal Show, and it's the time week where we check in and see what's going on in our lives. So, Nina, what's up with you this week? I think I made a little bit of a commitment. This is a good thing. So I don't know if you know this about me, but I've moved four times in the last five years. Wow. Actually, a lot more than that if you add on more years.

But this is very exciting because I just got a new couch. Hey. And it feels really good because we have new energy. I got rid of all of the old stuff because my life was pretty much in storage for three years also. Man, it's very complicated. Let me just simplify this. I use sage. I got all the bad energy out.

I have a new couch. And basically, when I walk into my place, I feel like a new person. A whole new. And the couch I bought new. Sweet. But that's the commitment. Do you know what I'm saying? It costs a lot to get a couch.

Yeah, it's expensive. I'm saying, I'm saying this is my spot right now. Right. I'm committing it to it. It's like it's the human equivalent of peeing on something like a doll. Ew. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You got your couch in there.

It's like you peed on it. Yeah, exactly. Lift your leg and log on to IKEA. I have my mark. Victoria, what's up with you this week? Well, guys. is, do you remember last week, I think it happened? We got an email, or a few weeks ago, whatever it was.

We got an email from someone about possibly doing like a live event with them. Yes. Okay, we thought we had like been responding back and forth to them because there was a person who's like pretty big on like TikTok. Do you not want to say their name? Yeah, this is weird. This is weird. Okay, it was with Bethany Frankel.

Yeah. That's a real housewife if you don't know who she had. And she's been on TikTok. Yeah. But so. I don't know why. I don't know why Victoria is being secretive about it. Yeah.

I don't know why either. I didn't mean to be protected. accepting Bethany's privacy. Well, okay. Yeah, they asked us to come on her Instagram and then do like an interview thing. Yes, and we had to do a tech check. So Jubal and I did a tech, tech check the other day.

And I couldn't log on to our Instagram. I couldn't figure out why. Minds you, it turns out it was only a button I was impressing. So I'm like, my bad. Oh, so we could have done it? The whole time. Yeah, we could definitely.

But she cost you a couple thousand, but no, no, no, big deal. It's a good thing we didn't. Because I was talking to someone who works in social media yesterday. It was a scam. Really? Dude, like, she's like, well, does it come from like a Gmail? And I'm like, yeah, this guy's email. And she goes, Victoria, what does it say?

And I was telling her, and she goes, that's a scam. Yeah, so they were trying to get into our... We were trying to hack our Instagram. And thankfully, because I didn't press the button. Because you didn't know what to press the button. They couldn't. Good job. But they messaged me yesterday asking about, like, hey, like, any other things.

Yeah, because they thought you bit and they were ready to cash in. Well, now I'm like, you wasted my time, so I want to waste yours. That's wild. So then I responded. And I told. him like okay like i think we got it all fixed i think we'll check again but also would she like to come on our podcast it'd be so cool we can offer her this we will need payment up front but what are your thoughts and what do you say i don't know he hasn't responded yet but i'm hoping to keep us going for

a few weeks just like scaring back yeah that's good that we didn't know how to get on yeah right i was like oh gosh things work out for a reason yeah it's crazy wow there's a freeze what's up with you? I got a memo on my door yesterday telling me that I have 48 hours before they're going to come into my apartment and check the fire alarm. And I don't like that. Like, this is the first time I've been in a situation where I've had an apartment complex where I've had something like this happen and it feels invasive to me. Well, it's their building. So they have the right to do that and they're making sure that it works in their place. Actually, I don't know all the legalities behind it, but they get to come in and out all the time. Yeah, it's just weird. I just feel like I should hide all my valuables and like.

I feel weird about it. Just make it worth their time. What do you mean? They open the door, be like, oh, I just got out of the show. Sorry about that. Part of the issue, though, is that they're doing it in hours that I'm probably not going to be there. That's the problem. That's where it feels weird.

You can take the day off. Just go shopping, get some weird stuff and lay it out. Just be on the couch. I'm waiting for you. Hey, boys. What's going on with you? Um, well, I think my neighbors, like, I know that my neighbors think I'm weird, but now I'm wondering if they might want to, like, call the authorities on me. Um, okay, so I have a stop sign right outside of my house, right, on the street that we're on, and there's like a text message group with all the neighbors.

And they text all the time and they're like, hey, do you want to come over and we're having this party on Saturday? How many times have you come over, Jewel? Zero. Things are including me, but... But the other day, I stole the stop sign that's outside of my house. Yeah. Right. Like, for what reason?

It was kind of dangling, and I wanted to use it for something. So I looked at the stop sign. And there was a text message the next day. Did anybody see who stole the stop sign? And then there was, like, this whole thread about, like, how upset they are, that somebody stole the stop sign. Oh, my. And now we're on the radio time.

We stole the stop sign. I hope they don't talk to the dog walker, dude, that I have. I've come during the show to walk my dog because the stop sign is like right when you enter the house, you can see the stop sign. Also, I stole a don't park. Do not park sign. Why? So, like, he's just seeing signs pile up so, like, he could incriminate me.

I'm just like, I shouldn't set those things right where people can see them. I should be a little more stealth. Or you should not steal them. Well, if you were to use them for, like, art or something, hypothetically speaking, would you get in trouble for that? Yes. You do get in trouble for stealing. It's still bad. But if you were to display it as art.

They don't know I could have paid for it. It would be a fake. I'm not a real stop sign. A doppelganger stop sign. What's that called 3D printing? Yeah. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. What reason did you have to steal a stop sign?

Because I want to use it for an art thing. Told you. And so I've been wanting to take that stop sign for a while. And then one day it was just loose. You're like, this is my opportunity. Well, thank you, God. All right. You gifted me the stop sign.

This is your sign. And then I was driving. I had another idea, and I needed a no parking sign. And I was driving by a construction site, you know, early in the morning. So I pulled over and grabbed a few of the no parking things. Sure, that makes sense. They're not after grab. They're not just like a take whenever you need to do a street.

Isn't that like when you put a free couch out? It's another jubal phone frame. Weekday mornings on the 20s. There, this is Pete Eakins. I'm calling from Chakes. I was looking for the bride to be, Kylie. Hi. Hey.

You know, you can actually talk to the coordinator, though. I believe you have her number. Yeah, I do. But if you need it again, I can find it. Yeah, I do have your wedding coordinator's phone number. I know you're getting married here in a few hours, so you've got to be pretty stressed out. I was just calling to give you a big congratulations myself. Okay.

Well, thank you. We're getting our hair and makeup and stuff done, so I'm going to pass you up to the coordinator if you don't mind. Getting guess it up. I can give you that number. Just give me a second. All right. Hey, real quick, though, I did need to run this by you instead of the coordinator because it's kind of a big deal. okay so um we had a little bit of a snafu with the cake today what do you mean

what would a snafu mean i don't know exactly what i can look it up with no no i'm so sorry what do you mean what's wrong with the cake oh okay yes so we were testing out this brand new technology that we have um we started delivering our cakes with drone via drone it's really cool so yeah so i'm guessing it's not cool based on where this is going what happened well um Um, okay, so your wedding cake that is supposed to be at the venue is at the venue. Okay. But the drone crashed right outside, and so it's all over the pavement at the venue. Our drone system, this was our first test run of our do drone delivery.

Okay, so again, it's my wedding day. What do you expect me to do? That is... There has to be cake at a wedding. Right, yeah. And, you know, that cake took us quite. while to create. So not going to be able to make a replacement one in just a few hours.

Okay, so you're telling me that there's no cake for my wedding. No, there is a cake. No, no, not a floor cake. I'm talking about cake people can eat. Just to correct one thing, it's more like a parking lot cake at this point. Yeah, I was looking at the, you know... Okay, that's not helpful. You just called me to tell me you're an idiot.

Okay, well, I think those words are kind of harsh. You think those words are harsh? Listen up, you stupid motherfucker. I don't know who peed in your mom, but I cannot deal with this stupid shit anymore. Get me a refund. Get me a person that can actually fix this. Somebody's got to be in charge of you. Okay.

What we do. Do you like confetti cake? It's always delicious. Who's your boss? I cannot speak to you. You are too stupid to have a conversation with on the phone. Who is in charge? Well, I don't know if stupid is the right terminology.

If you are the tippy top of this cake company. I did create a drone technology in order to be able to deliver these. Oh, sure, we should all feel super good about that, you moron. But I cannot believe that you would be the person that actually is in charge that I can talk to about how to actually rectify the situation. Give me the number or the name of someone who is in charge of you. You're literally ruining my wedding. I cannot believe. Chicken wings.

Chicken tenders. I cannot. Chicken tenders. What? What if I have one of my guys stopped by the grocery store pick up some chicken tenders? and some Jojo potatoes instead of a cake. That's a fun thing to do. You can spin it to the people that come to your wedding and be like,

hey, we decided to not go with a cake. We had something way better. Jojo's and chicken wings. I'm willing to pay for it myself. You want me to serve chicken wings instead of cake. That's where we're at right now. Jojo's a jojo potatoes as well. They're delicious.

Okay, okay, okay, okay, idiot. You're saying I should just go and get chicken wings. No, I'll get them for you. I'll get them with your drone. Oh, yeah, you're going to get them with your drone. That's going super well. You know, you can come, you could just run that thing through my veil and really make a mess out of the whole situation, you moron. Honestly, sure.

Bring me. Bring me the chicken wings. So I mean, stab you in the eye with a potato, you son of a bitch. Well, then Kylie, I'll let you know that this is actually Jubal from the Jubal show doing a phone prank on you. And your fiance set you up. What? Yeah, your fiance set you up. You wanted to play a prank on you.

It's a joke. Bro. Bro. It's my wedding. Yeah. Okay. All right. Okay.

Okay. Well, now instead of a wedding, I'm pregnant with divorce. Wake up every morning with Jubal phone pranks. Give us three minutes and we'll give you everything you need to know for the day. Brought you by Muckles Shoot Bingo in Auburn. Your home from Mishingo. It's time for Nina's what's trending. I'm about to tell you why you should never give a camel Botox.

But before I get to that story. I was just about to do it too. Yeah. I know. And that's the first thing I think whenever I see a camel is me. Man, they need both. Top of my list of things they do today. I know, but silly, you guys don't do it.

Again, I'll tell you why in a minute. But first, this makes me very sad to report. But Britney Spears was arrested on suspicion of a DUI. Oh, no. I've been wondering what she's been up to. Well, that. Right before she was arrested for her DUI, she had posted a video on Instagram

of herself, of course, dancing in basically lingerie with a few slips here and there. So she was arrested not that far from her home and taken immediately to the hospital, where they were able to draw her blood to find out her blood alcohol content level. Which means she was denying them the tests. Yeah. I mean?

Yeah, I guess so. That's what they do. If you say, yeah, if you say no to their field sobriety tests, they'll say, okay, well, then you're going to come with us and we're going to take your blood. Yeah. And you're in the way, in the carway, they're like, hope the blood level goes down. Right. Can I have some water?

So she's allegedly telling people that she has, she had a 0.06, the legal limit in California is a 0.08. However, you can still be charged with DUI, even if officers are seeing you drive erratically. Isn't it a 0.08 everywhere? I think it is. But also, yeah, if you have alcohol in your blood and you've been driving poorly,

they can still charge you with a DUI. Really? Even if it's not above the legal, like, oh. I mean, that makes sense. You look like you're driving all over the road. We're going to get you. I think about you can be lightweight, and that 0.06 really takes you out. That makes sense.

It's different. Yeah. So pretty sad, but she's due to appear in court on May 4th. Thankfully, nobody was hurt. She's fine. She did deactivate her Instagram, so you're going to have to wait for those videos. But they're saying that her sons are going to be spending some time with her. It sounds like she needs a little extra love to try to get her right back on track.

I know. It's really hard to watch. Do you guys follow her? Yeah, it's a spiral. It's really sad to watch those videos. I know. And they always have millions and millions of likes, and I know these people just like,

want to support her because they love Britney Spears. But in a way, do you see it as enabling? Yes. Yeah. I do. I do. I definitely do. And back in the day, I used to be one of the first people that would rip on her for

all our crazy behavior. Really? But now, yeah. But now I don't. You feel bad for her. Yeah, I do. And I feel bad of some of the things that I've said in the past, like making fun of her, because I'm like, man, she's got some serious mental health problems.

And I think when you like it, I think it does enable it because it makes her keep doing it. Exactly. You know? But I think people like it. And she disabled all the comments on all of them. Like, she never posts and leave. the comments on, it's just for the likes. So if she sees the likes, it's just

encouraging her to continue to do it. It's just sad. But then technically also isn't the following enabling her? Because if you don't give her a following, she's not... For sure, but how are you going to turn that around? I mean, yeah. It's almost like you give the follow. It's like, okay, I'm here to support you and cheer you on, but then when you're liking, like... I'm not going to sit here and watch the train

wreck, you know? Right. Yeah. So, hopefully she does really get it back on track. And she gets the help that she needs. Microsoft has just filed a patent for an AI for AI to play Xbox with you. Wow. Yeah.

So it's not even just that you're going to be playing against AI. Like it's your homie and you're just like, hey, let's go play a game. There's actually the option to let AI play for you if you get to a place in the game. That's got to the point where people are so lazy with video games. You can't beat this level or this one tricky point. Well, AI will be it. That's the fun of a video game is like having to try to do it and do it and do you get it. I know.

That's dumb. If I can't beat this level, I'll just let the game beat itself. That's so stupid. It is stupid. But there's also rumors that Xbox may be going away altogether. I don't think so. So the fate of Xbox is still kind of up in the air. I don't think so either.

Xbox, I think, might have succumbed to the power of the PlayStation. Well, it's not even just that. It's that Microsoft has a new CEO and they want to focus on AI. So can't they just like still like keep giving us games? Like I don't really play that much. I play when I go to my dad's house, my brothers. Xbox? Yeah.

I think you. There's not many people who are going home to play the Xbox these days. Everybody I know is trying to get on PS5 or PS4. Just I'll play Nintendo and be happy. I just love a little Mario Brothers action. I found my old Nintendo. So much fun. I have one.

I have an OG Nintendo. It doesn't work, but I can't get rid of it. I like how Victoria just called it Nintendo, too. No. No, it's fine. You literally sounded like an elementary schooler, though. I'm going to play Nintendo, Mama. Can I play Nintendo?

Mama, where's the Nintendo? Can we go home from the store so I can play some Nintendo? That's really cute. Thanks, Mom. Oh, my God. Well, just for that, Victoria, you're the one that needs to hear this story because you shouldn't be giving your camel

Botox. Whoa. Whoa. How does you say camel? My head goes somewhere. I'm talking about legit camels. Apparently, there's a camel beauty show festival that's held every year,

and the camels will be disqualified if you use Botox and lip fillers. Wait. A camel with lip fillers. Okay, now I got a Google. I knew you're going to. There goes the radiddle. Today's daily radiddle.

Listen, 20 animals were already disqualified. Why? Because of lip filler in Botox. Oh, my God. But do yourself a favor today in Google Camels with lip filler. You guys use this animal cruelty. It really is. Why are you giving them bo-tok?

Do yourself a favor. Google Camels with lip filler. with lip killers. I don't support it, but also I kind of do because the pictures are very funny. Things I never thought, a sentence I never thought I'd hear.

Now you did and now you've been warned. Oh my gosh. That's what's strange. What is the Botox even doing? I don't know. The forehead wrinkles. It gets rid of those nasty camel forehead wrinkles, I guess.

That's so dumb. Speaking of this, these camels that have had the Botox and lip fillers do look like a lot of aging celebrity. That's what I pictured. That is, I've got to look at it. It's helping the camel's self-esteem, okay, guys.

Getting ready for a game means being ready for anything. Like packing a spare stick. I like to be prepared. That's why I remember 988, Canada's suicide crisis helpline. It's good to know, just in case. Anyone can call or text for free confidential support from a train responder any time. 988 suicide crisis helpline is funded by the government in Canada.

Hi, this is Joe Winterstein, host of the Spirit Daughter podcast, where we talk about astrology, natal charts, and how to step into your most vibrant life. And I just sat down with a mini driver.

The Irish traveler said when I was 16, you're going to have a terrible time with men. Actor, storyteller, and unapologetic, Aquarian visionary. Aquarius is all about freedom-loving and different perspectives. and I find a lot of people with strong placements in Aquarius are misunderstood. A son and Venus and Aquarius in her seventh house spark her unconventional approach to partnership. He really has taught me to embrace people sleeping in different rooms, on different houses, in different places, but just an embracing of the isness of it all.

This episode is a must listen. Listen to the Spirit Daughter podcast starting on February 24th on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen to your podcast. I'm Clayton Eckerd, and in 2022, I was the lead of ABC's The Bachelor. Unfortunately, it didn't go according to plan. He became the first Bachelor to ever have his final rose rejected. The internet turned on him. If I could press a button and rewind it all I would. But what happened to Clayton after the show?

made even bigger headlines. It began as a one-night stand and ended in a courtroom with Clayton at the center of a very strange paternity scandal. The media is here. This case has gone viral. The dating contract.

Agree to date me, but I'm also suing you. Please search for it. This is unlike anything I've ever seen before. I'm Stephanie Young. This is love-trapped. This season,

an epic battle of He Said She Said. and the search for accountability in a sea of lies. Listen to Love Trapped on the Iheart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. It's time to catch a cheater. Only on the Jubal Show. We have a major update on today's To Catch a Cheater. To refresh your memory,

we did a To Catch a Cheater a little while ago that ended like this. What is it? You're cheating on me, and I just finally found out. You haven't been coming to bed. You've been staying up late on your computer, you're minimizing the screen.

You've been clearing the browsing history. You've been telling me you're going out with friends that aren't even in the country. And you're come home smelling like other women. Like, what the hell? Hey, listen to me, please. I'm begging you. I'm really not cheating on you here. Okay, this is going to be real good.

Well, actually, you're going to feel like a d'clock when I tell you what's going on. Oh, yeah. I'm going to feel like such a jerk when you're sending flowers to Margaret and a pretty kitty. What is a week away? my cat died five years ago what are you talking about well every year you know on her anniversary we always get super sad think about adopted another cat I know how hard it's been for you you know all these years without her

so what I've been doing is I've been up late at night trying to find a cat that looks exactly like Chloe and I finally found one from this woman who breeds cats and her name is Margaret. I was going to pick up the kitten this weekend and surprise you with it. I'm not super comfortable with you like picking out a replacement cat for Chloe and then just surprising me with them. Like, because then what am I supposed to do if I don't feel like it's the right cat? I mean, there's a reason I haven't gotten a new one for five years. So you go through all this, you make me think that you're cheating on me for weeks and weeks and weeks. And then you're like, oh, I just bought you a new cat. What? Like, are you thinking?

I didn't know you thought I was cheating. I didn't even say anything. So when I came and was like, hey, so I've noticed that you're acting different. Are you seeing someone else? Is there something else you want to talk to me about? Because I'm getting really concerned. Like that didn't get through your dense brain that maybe I thought you were cheating? Yeah, we have been together for 10 years.

And I guess I know that you don't like surprises. But I mean, I don't know. Does this mean we don't want the cat anymore? I will come and see the cat this weekend. Okay. And we will talk. I love you, but I don't know if I really like you right now, Kyle. We're going to need some time on those.

You just heard a clip to catch a cheater from a little while ago, and now we have to follow up with it because one of our listeners named John is on the phone. And John thinks that that guy is actually cheating. John, what's up? Hey, what's up, guys? Okay, so you heard that to catch a cheater and you think that this guy is actually cheating? Yeah, so that dude is definitely the guy that was cheating on my sister. He did the exact same thing to her.

The exact same thing? Okay, so his wife thought he was cheating and he said he was getting her a cat. And you're telling me that you're sure this is the same guy that cheated on your sister and he also tell her he was going to get her a cat? Oh, I hope not. A hundred percent. Same exact thing. I was like, this sounds familiar.

What? I had my sister Elizabeth listen to the segment. She confirms that is definitely the same guy, same dumb excuse. Plus, he was dating my sister while he was clearly, you know, married or whatever. Oh, I was going to ask. Okay, so if what you're saying is true, that guy's thing is to cheat on someone and then when he gets caught, say he was buying him a cat? That's a weird.

Yeah, I guess that's his dumb excuse, but he used like the exact same thing. I was like, that's weird. And then I heard you guys talking about it. I was like, this is the guy. Like, it's too familiar. So it is. It's for sure the guy. So he was cheating on your sister with somebody else that wasn't even the wife.

Oh, yeah. This guy's a scumbag. Like, I just want to know him. Like, this guy is. Wow. We have his wife, Jackie, on the phone. And this is going to be the first time that she's hearing about a girlfriend and the possibility of him cheating on that girlfriend

and saying that he was also going to get her a cat. But, uh, man. Jackie. Hey, how are you? Good. What do you think about what John? John has to say. Honestly, I really hate to say it, but I'm not super surprised because, like, the whole thing

rubbed me the wrong way and seemed weird when we had that, you know, previous conversation. And ever since, people that have heard it and, like, know us have been coming up to me and being like, you know, he's, I think he's definitely cheating. Okay. Well, you're open to us calling your husband in just a second and having John call him out for cheating on his sister and then you can also reveal that you now know he's cheating. Oh, 100%. And, John, thank you so much for, like, being willing to come and do this because I really do

want this to just be put to bed once and for all as awful as it is. Oh, 100%. Like, I'm sorry you have to deal with it. This guy deserves it. I'm sorry for your sister. Like, maybe she and I should go out for coffee. It sounds like a good. Oh, what is that?

Weirder things are not. If you're just joining us for To Catch a Cheater, we're about to do a huge update. Apparently, somebody who told us that they weren't cheating might actually have been, and we're about to call them. I'm talking about this guy. Well, actually, you're going to feel like a bitch when I tell you what's going on. Oh, yeah. I'm going to feel like such a jerk when you're sending flowers to Margaret and a pretty kitty. What is a week away?

My cat died five years ago. What are you talking about? That's sad. Well, I know how hard it's been for you, you know, all these years without it. So what I've been doing is I've been up late at night, trying to find a cat that looks exactly like Chloe, and I finally found one from this woman who breeds cats and her name is Margaret. I'm not super comfortable with you, like, picking out a replacement cat for Chloe and then just surprising me with them. Like, because then what am I supposed to do if I don't feel like it's the right cat?

I mean, there's a reason I haven't gotten a new one for five years. So you go through all this. You make me think that you're cheating on me for weeks and weeks and weeks. And then you're like, oh, I just bought you a new cat. What? Like, are you thinking? I didn't know you thought I was cheating. I didn't even say anything, though.

So when I came and was like, hey, so I've noticed that you're acting different. Are you seeing someone else? Is there something else you want to talk to me about? Because I'm getting really concerned. Like, that didn't get through your dent. brain that maybe I thought you were cheating. Yeah, we have been together for 10 years, and I guess I know that you don't like surprises, but, uh, I mean, I don't know if this means we don't want the cat anymore.

I will come and see the cat this weekend. Okay. And we will talk. I love you, but I don't know if I really like you right now, Kyle. We're going to need some time on those. And now one of our listeners named John is on the phone, and so is that guy's wife, Jackie, because John just told us that he recognized Kyle, the guy who was in the To Catch a Cheater that you just heard, as the guy who cheated on his sister, and he also blamed it on a cat.

So we're going to have John just call him right now and just call him out. Kyle isn't going to know that his wife, Jackie, is actually on the phone. And you're sure that this, you're sure that this is the guy, John, that was cheating with your sister. I'm 100% sure I thought the story was like so screwed up and so familiar I was like this gotta be the same guy I mean my sister confirms

this is for sure the guy John did your sister get a cat no there's never a cat there's no cats so weird all right and Jackie you're gonna be on the phone too

to see if you can actually catch Kyle cheating yep I'm ready to go Okay, here we go. Hey, is this Kyle? Yeah, this is. Who's this? Hey, this is John.

Remember me? John, who, buddy? I don't really recognize your voice. John, yeah. Come on, man. I'm Elizabeth's brother. You remember? We met at my mom's birthday party, actually, last year.

Oh, shit. Hey, what's up, man? I'm really sorry about what happened with your sister. Uh, yeah, you mean how you were cheating on her? And then you gave her some dumb-ass lame excuse about how you were trying to buy her a cat or something because you're a piece of shit. Look, dude, I mean, I feel really bad about that. And I don't really know what I could do about it now. And I don't know, you just call me to talk to shit or what's up, man?

Yeah, because you're a piece of shit is why. You're a f***um bag, bro. And you're not, I don't know how you treat women like this or why do you think you're going to get away with it. Well, yeah, like, you know a cheated on her. Like, what's the point of all this? Like, what are you doing? Oh, so you are a cheating scumbag. Who uses a excuse.

Oh, what the fuck? Are you guys... Yeah. Kyle, what's up? It's the Jubal show. Yeah, hi, Kyle. We're back. What's up?

And that's your wife, Jackie. Yeah. What the hell is going on here? What's going on? That's what we all want to know. We all knew that you were lying. We all knew everyone. Everyone knew that you were lying.

And John called in because he had actual proof. You have wasted my entire life. You've wasted my entire life. This is just your M-O-A to just go sleep around and then use an excuse of a freaking... Do you think we're all Taylor Swift in the me music video where we just see a kitten and we're just all going to let you get away with whatever? Like, what the fuck is wrong with you? Listen, don't listen to know what this kid says, Jackie.

I love you, baby. Don't let this rule... What? That's both of shit. You were cheating on me. Oh, you're a douchebag, bro. doing it with a lot of other people too. You just admitted that you were cheating.

We just heard you say it, Kyle. You said that you were cheating. I don't know what you were doing my sister. You were married, a piece of shit. Yeah, and you were cheating on me. You were cheating on someone that you were cheating on me with. You can't even say no way now. Yeah, you've been big time caught,

and why are you offering people cats as a way to, like, get out of it? That's all we want to know. I feel like you guys record my voice. I love cats as much as a nice. Oh, my, AI. Yeah, I don't believe everything you hear. Oh, my God. That's what it is. It's fake news.

Jackie, I'm so sorry. Well, it's a good thing I already had divorce papers drawn up. Oh. Listen, I don't know who you guys think you are, but I'm going to come after you. You're going to get some serving papers, and I'll see you in court. John, come at me, but you guys to knock you out on site. You guys, too, jubal, get out of you. You're going to.

Okay. All it only takes is one testimony for me, dude. You're fucking dead. Yeah, whatever. I'll see all you idiots in court. Okay. Okay. He hung up.

Jackie, I'm so sorry. And John, thank you for, you know, helping us actually catch cheater. Damn, for real. Don't be sorry. Yeah, I know. I'm sorry. What a tool.

They're cool. First date follow up. powered by the advocates injury attorneys online at advocates law.com. Amanda is on the phone today for a first day follow-up and she's getting ghosted by a guy named Kyle. So in a few minutes, we're going to call him and see if he'll tell us why he's ghosting her and maybe get her a second date. But first, Amanda, how long has it been since you heard from Kyle? Hi, guys. It's been a few weeks now.

Okay. That's a good amount of time. What is it about Kyle that you want to get a hold of so bad? Oh, my goodness. It's like, it's really rare. I think that you meet someone like Kyle. We had this lovely first date and a really just lovely connection. And I think it would be a real shame if we don't reconnect in that way.

I don't know. It just, it's something felt really right. What felt so right that you just don't want to kind of move on to the next person? I mean, okay, is it helpful to just explain everything that went down? Yeah. Okay. So I don't date very much. I'm a single parent.

but I met him at this basketball game. Our kids are little. They're like five and they're in this little basketball league. And, you know, we were there on a Saturday and we were both cheering and we ended up just sort of bonding and talking about being single parents and just met a general chaos of life. And he just, he's so charming. I don't know. I've got a few times, but he really is. We just totally hit it off.

And then, you know, nobody, who asks somebody out anymore, like in person? Like, when does that happen? But he asked me out to dinner. and we're like, you know, when we don't have the kids, let's go out. And that's a huge step for me. Like, I haven't been out at all since my ex-husband. So that was pretty special. And, yeah, I mean, he planned the whole date.

Total gentleman about it. He took me to a steakhouse, which is kind of fancy. And we were, we just had a great conversation. We were talking at one point, and I was, like, talking so much that I blew the little, like, tea light candle out in front of us. And he was like, hold on. And he got up and he got another one, which was so cute. Oh, that is cute.

Um, yeah, he knows a lot about wine and he's just very cultured in that way. And so he picked a great wine for us and just felt like a real instant connection, a lot of laughing. There was also so random, but maybe not random. He's good at planning dates, I guess. But there was like a band that played. It was a very old school vibe. And we ordered dessert. And that was nice enough for me.

But he literally grabbed my hands and we started dancing. Oh, that's cool. To live music. And, you know, we had a few glasses and wine at that point. The wine was great and the music was great. And it just was such a great night. And I really loved how I felt when I was with him. That's romantic.

He sounds like an excellent date. Do we know he's single? You said he has a kid. Like, could he possibly? I mean, one of the benefits of the Little League, so to speak, that we're all a part of is that I definitely have vetted with other parents that he is single. Okay. Okay. I know.

Yeah. You know, there was just some cuddling and gifting on that first date. And I thought, hmm, okay. We're definitely going to do this again. Why do you think he might be ghosted? you. I mean, I thought a lot about it and really only like a couple things. I mean, you know, everybody has their insecurities. Like I definitely, I'm like, oh, you know, maybe he wasn't attracted to me or any of those things had gone through my head. But the big one is, oh man, I can't

believe I'm saying this on the radio, but I reached over and I cut his steak for him at the like, I instinctively went to cut the steak at the steak house. And I, it was just, it was just force of habit, you know, I have a little one. And I, when I pulled back, I was like, oh, sorry, I'm a virgin. What? It was totally a joke. I just was like, oh, I'm a virgin.

Sorry about that. Like, I'm new to this. Like you're a dating virgin? That's funny. That's funny, though. You know, Madonna, could call me. I feel like a virgin again. Like, I'm very, like, new to this again.

Yeah. Yeah. I think that's funny. I don't know if I would ghost you over that, you know? Yeah, we laughed it all. I don't think it's ghosting material. I mean, I hope not. He might have been alarmed, though, by somebody reaching over to touch his steak,

but I used to hang out with this couple, and she would cut his steak every single time they went out. Like, he'd wait to eat for it. Really? So some people are into it. Huh. It was weird. Amanda is on the phone, and she's getting ghosted by Kyle,

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 first, Amanda, why don't you break down your date with Kyle one more time for us real quick, before we call him? Yeah, I met this guy at our second. his basketball games. He took me out for dinner. It was super nice. It's been a couple of weeks. And I texted him. I literally saw him after the next basketball game and he like rushed away. And it was super weird. So yeah, we just let to know what happened and what I did.

Okay. Well, are you ready for us to call him? Yeah, I guess so. All right. Here we go. Hi, may I speak to Kyle please? This is Kyle speaking. Hey, Kyle. How are you? This is a radio show. It's called the Jubal show. Hi, Kyle. I'm Nina. Hi, I'm Victoria. And my name is Jubal. How are you? you. I'm okay. What's going on? Not much.

Have you ever heard the show before? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, great. Well, Kyle, we got an email about you from somebody. That's why we're on the phone. Okay. So, I don't know if you've heard the segment that we do, the first eight follow-up, where if you get ghosted, you can email us and we'll call the person who ghosted you

and ask why they're ghosting. Oh, wow. Okay. So we got... It's just about Amanda? Yes, it is. Well, you knew that right away. We talked to Amanda a little bit about your date.

She said that it was very romantic, awesome, actually. Yeah. Wow. But says that you're not calling her back and she doesn't know why. Can you tell us? Oh, boy. I don't. Okay.

So our kids play in the same basketball league together. I'm sure, you know, she probably right. Yeah, we went out. It was a lovely time. It was really nice. And, you know, I just, I'm looking for something different. I'm a single dad, and I want to have fun. And she just, and she or she's a great mom, but my kids got a mom,

and I kind of just want a girlfriend. And she's, I just noticed she was sort of in mom mode all the time. What does that mean? Okay. Well, she's really caring. She's really affectionate. And I had a really good time, but she just can't cut loose. She's very, well, she was kind of high strung.

Well, to be honest, I wound up going out with one of the other women from the basketball league. What? Who? Hey, Kyle, that's Amanda. She's actually on the, I don't know if you remember these or not, but she's on the phone and wants to talk to you. And obviously he's curious about who you went out with. Oh, yeah. No, I forgot.

Yeah. Hi. Hey, how are you? Wait, sorry. You know, I've been better. You're gosing me because I'm too much of a mom. Is that, like, is that what we're going with here? No, look.

Okay, yeah. No, you're really sweet. I just, I'm not really dating to find a partner right now. I'm just dating to have fun. And, you know, I think it's awesome. I think you're a great parent, but I really just need a girlfriend. And, you know, I'm, wow, this is embarrassing. You want someone to take shots and, you know, forget their responsibilities.

forget their kids. Yeah, no, that makes a little sense. I was like, a great idea. Oh, come on. No, no, no, no. I can relax. I can have a good time. I can be a dad and I can just be a man and, you know, you're just you're a mom and that's awesome, but I need a woman

who's more than just a, you know, just one thing. That's so crazy. Kyle, you're a dad. Like, do I have to remind you of that? You are a dad. You are a parent, too. Okay. Look, I can go out. I can have fun with people and I don't need to just be a dad all the time. I, uh, look, sweetheart, I contain multitudes, right?

What? I need a woman who does that too. I don't think you say sweetheart like that and then say I can be a dad and a man. I mean, aren't you a dad all the time? You're a mom all the time if you have children. But I understand what you mean by being able to separate being a person, but I don't know that that's really what you're saying. You're saying you just kind of want somebody reckless. It has nothing to do with me. Not reckless. I mean, what I care about my kids. I think, you know, it's not about that.

But if I'm going out with a woman, I don't want to just talk about kids stuff all the time. And, I mean, it was kind of weird. She tried to cut my food up for me. Who did you go out with? Can you just tell me that? Lisa. Sorry, Lisa, the 22-year-old referee at the basketball game. She's literally not a parent.

He's not a parent That makes perfect sense Which is definitely not a parent Yeah Okay So clearly you're just You're a dad who wants to date somebody Who's like basically your daughter

Kyle Would you like to go out with Amanda again On a second date? We'll pay for it Oh wow Sounds very very tempting No you guys Why don't you guys all go out together

that sounds like a good time. It does. Yeah, well, thanks for calling. I appreciate it. Yeah, and you have fun being the oldest man at an EDM show, Kyle. Thanks for you to come. Getting ready for a game means being ready for anything. Like packing a spare stick.

The news right here on the Jubal Show, a California Highway Patrol dog detected $2 million worth of cocaine at a stop recently. It's the first time that much cocaine has been sniffed in California since Charlie Sheen was making headlines. It's the Jigle show. And it's time for real news or fake news. The segment where I read a news story from the week that's gone viral and you have to tell me if it's a real news story or a fake one that people actually believed. Here's your first headline for real news or fake news. Companies begin serving targeted ads directly to your door. Companies begin serving targeted ads directly to your door.

In a bold news step toward maximum personalization, several major tech companies announced a revolutionary average, a revolutionary average. advertising model this week, sending actual human beings to wherever you are to deliver ads in person. After years of tracking history, location data, shopping habits, etc., companies are now planning to serve ads with laser precision. The new system uses data to dispatch brand ambassadors to places that you frequently visit. So if you spend time in the snack aisle at the grocery store, a random stranger may approach you, holding a family-sized bag of chips and begin listing the limited time offers on it. If you pause too long looking at vitamins, all of a sudden, the representative will materialize beside you and begin describing probiotic benefits.

Some companies are even having doorstep delivery ads where trained marketers knock on your door to read sponsorship content directly to you. That's been happening for a long time. Instead of just being the ads that are served on your phone that are creepy, now you'll just be out and someone will be like, mm, those Oreos look delicious. And did you know they're on sale today? Right, right. Meanwhile, I'm thinking about the Gucci model that could be showing up in my door, and I'm like, okay.

Smart thinking. I might like this. I'll look up a bunch of Victoria's secret stuff just so it's on my algorithm. Real new story or a fake news story? I don't know why it's creepier when you do it. I'm going to go with fake. Fake? Yeah, I just feel like you can't do that.

Victoria, is this a real new story or a fake news story? She's stumped. I'm not, well, I'll say, yeah, um, fake. Why are you looking at me? What's real. You're thinking it's real? Okay. I mean, I could see this happening.

The way that they target ads now is crazy. It's all the marketing anyway. Producer Freeze, is this a real news story or a fake news story? Companies begin serving targeted ads directly to your door or wherever you're at. I think it's real because it's like the antithesis of everything being AI and impersonal. Oh, that's a good point. Companies are probably like, we need to get, you know, personal, bull, human interaction behind this product. Yeah.

I'm worried about violence. Well, it is a fake news story. Yeah, it is. But people did believe it. It was shared over 20 million times with people actually planning protests and writing to Congress about privacy issues. Wow. But honestly, I could definitely see companies doing that. Yeah.

I mean, like I said, that is something that in the back of my day, you know, people knocked on your door and solicited constantly. So going back to that, wouldn't surprise me. But if the Oreo guys following you around, don't you see people, like, beating them up? Like, I told you, I don't want Oreos right now. You see me in the protein shake aisle. Why are you following me with Oreos? It's real news or fake news. Segment where I read a news headline from the week that's gone viral and you have to see if you can...

And then you have to see if you can figure out if it's a real news story or a fake one that people actually believed. Here's the next headline for real news or fake news. Scientists say that just thinking about working out can actually make you more fit. Are you serious? Here's the surprising claim. A study suggests that simply imagining yourself actually. exercising can have measurable physical benefits, potentially similar to actually working out. The research behind it, researchers at Ohio State University studied how the brain affects muscle strength and movement.

Participants had their wrists immobilized in casts for four weeks so that their muscles would be weakened from lack of use. One group was instructed to imagine themselves doing strong muscle contractions like lifting weights for about 11 minutes a day, five days a week. The other group did nothing. The surprising result, the group that practiced mental imagery retains significantly more muscle strength than the group that did nothing. No way. Researchers found they were roughly twice as strong as the non-imagining group at the end of the experiment. Why they say it works, the brain's motor cortex plays a big role in controlling muscles. And mentally rehearsing movements can activate those neural pathways even without physical movement.

Is this a real new story or a fake one, Nina? I wish this was real, but I'm going to go with fake. I just can't imagine. Yeah. Victoria, you think it's real or fake that you can just think about working out and you'll be more fit? No, that's fake. That's not how that works. Okay.

Producer Freeze, is this a real news story or fake news story? Scientists say that just thinking about working out can make you more fit. Exhibit A, look at me. It's fake. All right. That is a real news story. Visualizing yourself working out can actually. help make you stronger.

I should be looking way different than I do right now. Please create a meditation for this two bowl and sit around and let's get fit by meditating. I'm here for this. You can learn a lot of things just by visualizing it. It's crazy. We're not actually doing anything. Right, but neuroplasticity. So in your brain, it connects those same things that you would be doing if you're learning it.

So the chemicals are being released by your body. It's not as effective as actually doing the work. But if you do both of those things, then yeah, it's like double. How hard do you have to focus on it? Like, am I picturing myself doing a squat or, like, am I feeling myself doing a squat? I would imagine you're picturing yourself doing a squat. You're picturing yourself doing a squat, what it feels like, what it feels like when you contract the muscle, like all that kind of stuff. And then eventually your brain starts to make those connections.

But interesting. They say it could be really useful for older people. Yeah. To get strength. They can just sit there and think about working out. They don't have to walk all these miles or anything like that. They can just mentally do it. No excuses.

You're sitting in traffic. Do those squads. Here's your next headline for real news or fake news. The segment where I read a news story that's gone viral this week, and you have to see if you can tell whether it's a real news story or a fake one that people actually believe. Kentucky Meat Shower Festival celebrates 150 years. The Kentucky Meat Shower Festival celebrates 150 years. It's not a meat festival, a meat shower.

Meat Festival. Meat Festival. Festival. Here is what the Kentucky Meat Shower is, according to this news story. The meat shower is something that happened on March 3rd, 1876

near Olympia Springs in Bath County, Kentucky. For several minutes late in the morning, chunks of meat fell from the sky over an area roughly 100 by 50 yards. So that's a big area. Yeah, that's a huge area. About a football field. Witnesses

say that, sorry, one witness says that she was outside making soap on her porch and it looked like it was snowing meat. It was so long ago they were making soap on their porch. Dases range from small flakes to chunks several inches wide and they've never been able to figure out why there was a meat shower all of a sudden in Kentucky. That's scary. And they have a festival every year and it's back, baby. Kentucky Meat Shower Festival celebrates 150 years. Nina, is that a real new story or a fake one? Can this be real?

I'm going to go with real. I would love to attend a meat shower. No, what? Victoria. I like steak. Kentucky meat shower celebrates 150 years. Is that true or a fake story? It's fake.

This isn't cloudy with the chance of meatballs. It's like, I don't know what kind of meat shower y'all think that's happening. It's fake. Producer Freeze, the Kentucky meat shower celebrates 150 years. Is that true or false? I love steak, too, but I'm not eating one that falls out of the sky. I'm going to say it's fake. All right.

Well, this story is 100% true. What? Yeah. Back in the 1800s, there was a random... Everybody's Googling now. Meat shower. Meat just fell out of the sky. Scientists examined samples after the event, and it studied that the...

And their studies found that the meat was a mixture of muscle tissue, lung tissue, and cartilage. Gross. The fighting has also indicated that it came from an animal, though the exact species never determined. Early guesses would be beef, lamb, deer, bear, or horse. So something exploded, basically. So there was just meat falling from the sky out of nowhere back in the 1800s in Kentucky. Do they have planes? They had planes back then, right?

1800s? No? No. What did you say, Victoria? You said a bird threw up? Yeah, like I'm guessing like birds were throwing up. Like on our Instagram, relax, someone said that that's why I have a, vultures were throwing it up.

That is the, that's the most widely accepted explanation today. Really? Is that vultures puked up a bunch of meat. They were flying and it all fell from the sky. I don't like steak anymore. Other than that is completely unexplained. I was thinking like maybe a carcass had got gassy or something and exploded. Like that was what I was thinking happened.

That's crazy. That's really disturbing. Give us three minutes and we'll give you everything you need to know for the day. Brought to you by Muckle Shoot Bingo in Auburn. Your home from a shingo. It's time for Nina's what's trending. Nothing is safe from the Epstein files. Now they're putting a spotlight on Jurassic Park.

What? Yeah. He even got into Jurassic Park somehow. He even into Jurassic Park. That dude had everybody in his pocket. For real. I'll explain the connection coming up in just a second. But first, Victoria, did you hear about Tate McCrae's new man?

Oh, yeah, the hockey guy, he lost a tooth. Sorry, a hockey guy. But I think it's him, right? He lost a tooth. Yeah, Jack Hughes. He's an Olympian athlete. He scored the winning goal in whatever. Team USA's hockey game.

He has, him and his brother were on, both on the USA team. And their mom played hockey also. Oh, really? Yeah, their mom was, I'm pretty sure Olympiad also. You know a lot more about this than I thought. Yeah, I just wanted to make sure you knew because they were confirmed. Tame McCray is officially off the market and she is dating the hockey player, Jack

Hughes. And he has no teeth right now in the front, but he will get them fixed. Next, this is kind of exciting. They're getting ready to build another sphere. If you've never made it to see a show at the sphere in Vegas. I hear it's worth it because I've never gone. I really want to. I do too. I want to go too. Yeah,

it looks so cool. We should go together, guys. I wanted to go see the Backstreet Boys. I told you, I was down for that. Oh my gosh, the Millennium Tour. What's the next one you want to go to? I'm so mad of myself for not going. But anyway, I don't know. I'll keep you posted. But they're coming up with the Spear Jr. that they're getting ready

to pop up in Nashville. So it's basically going to be just like the sphere in Vegas, but smaller. It's kind of cool. Nashville is popping. Yeah, why smaller? Well, probably because they don't have as much space as Vegas. I feel like it's Nashville's like in the country.

They should like find the space. I feel like it should be just as big. I would imagine it would be close to Broadway, like close to where all of the bars and places are. I've never been in Nashville, but it looks amazing. Like the exactly what you're talking about. Like the whole downtown area, everybody's telling me it's like basically Vegas. I mean, it's not huge. It's like a street, but it is like popping street.

Yeah. So, yeah, I could see it over there. and then it'd be just all kinds of experiences. Yeah, every kind of genre, though, is also popping off in Nashville. It's not just country music anymore. So, Sphere Jr., let's look out. And lastly, how the heck did Jurassic Park end up in the Epstein Files? Seriously.

Well, paleontologist Jack Horner was just recently fired from his university job for being in the Epstein files, and Jack Horner is the paleontologist that Dr. Allen Grant from Jurassic Park was based on. Oh, wow. Dang, little Jack Horner sat in a corner. Doing some things he probably shouldn't have been doing. That curds in way got him in a lot of trouble. It's amazing how many people

and they found stuff on in the Epstein files. You know what else is shocking? You just went down this rabbit hole last night, right? I mean, I've been going down it. But further. There's like 3 million pages of things. But you know what else is shocking? What?

UK leaders and big-time people in the UK who had associations with Epstein are being arrested. Yeah. And tried. And what is happening in America? We're being running in the wars. Maybe they're resigning and being asked to resign.

Are they? They're facing no legal implications at all, really. They arrested Prince Andrew. Good for the UK for taking it seriously. And shame on America for, like, still letting it be okay. Preach, Jewel, preach! Yeah, I'm just sad. The Jurassic Park had to get.

I knew that. I knew you're going to be so luxurious. What is that? That's what you're going to sound like when you move away? Yeah, we'll move over there. What is that? Hello, governors. Hello.

Cryed. Oh, wait, that's the wrong place. That's wrong place. Stop trying. But it is crazy, though. That's ridiculous. That is pretty ridiculous. It is.

But, of course, you know, Jack was like, n'uh. I didn't talk to him. I just talked to him about the Dino's chicken project. It's amazing how many people are listed in the Epstein Files, all these situations that they've been with them in. And nobody saw anything. Right.

Nobody ever knew that the guy was doing this, ever. It's always not, uh-uh. Bill Clinton has been like in being talked to for like three days straight. And every single thing that comes up, he's like, I had no idea. With everything that's going on, you have a photo of me in the guy's hot tub. Right. I got to kind of feel like you did something. They're like, this is you in a pool with Jil Zane Maxwell and like three other women.

Right. Were they part of your presidential entourage? Yes, they were. Do you think that was inappropriate? Well, no, I had no idea. Right, right. Yeah, right. Come on.

Yeah. It's a conspiracy. C-O-N-Spiracy. I did not have sexual relations with that woman, but I had them with all these other women. Right. Those are the ones I didn't do it with. This is what you both do,

he's practicing is Bill Clinton. In fact-exempts. Yeah. That is what's trending. Jubils. Dirty little secret. Hello. Jubal.
