or wherever you get your podcast. Hannah is on the phone today for a first day follow-up. She's getting ghosted by a dude named Luke, so in a few minutes, we're going to call him and see if they'll tell us why he's ghosting her but first Hannah how long has it been since you heard from Lou? It's been about a week. I texted him a couple times but nothing just radio silence. Really?

So did you feel like you were going to hear from him? Was the date good? No, it's so weird because he was texting me right after the date. Like that was fun. We should do it again and now poof, absolutely nothing. Why don't you tell us about the date? Oh, okay. So here's the deal.

We went out for sushi, which I love. I thought it was a super solid start. He even let me pick out the restaurant, which was cool. I didn't think that a guy who doesn't like raw fish would suggest sushi, but cool. We ended up ordering way too much food. It was kind of a mess that we were both just like cracking jokes about it, especially when he nearly flung a piece of sashini across the table trying to use the justice. Oh.

Yeah. It was cute. So afterwards, we went for a walk, which was really sweet. It was chill, low-key, and it just felt like we were on the same wavelength, you know? Yeah, flinging sushi and, you know, sweet conversation. So why do you think you're getting ghosted then? Oh, man. Honestly, I don't know, because I thought it would really, really great.

There was just, like, something about it. I mean, it was so funny. but maybe I messed up when I paid for dinner behind us back. The bill was just like way more than we expected. And I had ordered a really fancy socky and Wagyu advertiser without even thinking about it and I felt bad. So when he got up to use the bathroom, I just went ahead and paid for the whole thing.

So when he came back, I told him it wasn't a big deal. I'd marry you. I said, that's sweet. That doesn't sound like a reason to ghost you at all. Right. I mean, I can afford it, but he seemed like kind of irritated. He kept saying, you know, I could have paid for that. And I tried to explain that it didn't mean anything.

I just felt guilty for ordering the expensive staff, like, unconsciously. But maybe he thought that I was implying that he couldn't afford it or something. But I didn't really need it like that. I was just trying to do something nice. But now I'm wondering if it, like, came off totally wrong. Well, did he say thank you? Did like, aside from the fact that he's like, I could pay for it too, was he appreciative of it? Yeah, no, he did.

It just like, it just like shifted divide like a little bit. But like not enough to, like we still were planning on hanging out again. We both had talked about how it was fun. So I don't know. Hannah, why don't you refresh our memory on your date? Okay, we went out for this super fun sushi date, but I ended up paying. at the end because I thought I'd order two extensive things. So I'm worried if that's why he disappeared.

Okay. I mean, I don't know. I could see some guy being like, I don't want to go out with you again because he wouldn't let me pay. I could actually see that happening. Well, because he's probably like if he's thinking like, okay, well, what do I have to bring to the table or like somehow feeling bad about it. I don't know.

We'll see. You ready for us to call him? Oh, here we go. Okay. Here we go. Hello? Hi, man. I speak to Luke, please.

Uh, is Jen. Who's this? Hey, Luke, how are you? This is the Jubal Show. It's a radio show. Hi, I'm Nina. Hi, I'm Victoria. And my name's Jubal.

What's up? How are you? I'm sorry. Is it like a prank or something? No, it's not, actually. We're calling you for a different reason. Have you ever listened to the show before? Yeah, yeah.

I just, I didn't expect you to call me. Okay. Well, we're calling you today because you're ghosting somebody, and we do a segment on the show. call the first day follow up, you know, where if you go on a date with someone and then you end up ghosting them, that person can email us to ask you why you're ghosting them. So do you know who would have emailed us about you? I am guessing this is about Hannah, right? Yes. You got to correct. Congratulations. You've won nothing so far. Are you ghosting her? I'm not like ghosting her intentionally. I don't know. I don't know. I don't. I don't know. I don't. I don't. I don't. I don't. I don't know.

The date was super fun. She's super cool, but it was, honestly, it was just something that happened after. Okay, so you are ghosting her intentionally. Wait, she said she texted you and you didn't call her back, so.

Um, yeah, so, yeah, here's, okay, okay, but why?

Yeah. So, uh, the deal is, uh, so, uh, you know,

after our date, it was, it was really good. And, uh, my buddy, uh, So I was telling him about it and, you know, staying, so she paid for the meal and I, you know, behind my back and I don't know.

I just thought it was kind of weird. So I'm telling him about it. And he actually see a picture of her and I showed him a picture and he just started cracking up. And it turns out that he went out with Hannah too. Oh, okay. You don't want to go out because of that? No, no, no, no, no. It's not, it's not only that. It was that she did like the same exact thing with him. They went to like a steakhouse and got all like this expensive stuff and like behind his back she paid without telling him. And and then he was saying that like happened a bunch of times and he did. And he said his words that by the end he felt like she was treating him like some sort of boy toy that she could like, you know, control with. their money.

Oh, okay. And you don't want to be a boy toy. No. Is that what she's doing, though? Or is that just, I mean, I don't know. I think it's like nice that she wants to treat you. Maybe not every single time, but do you think that she was making you feel like a boy toy at all, Luke, when you were out with her?

I mean, I'm not going to like jump to that conclusion, but it just like it felt weird, you know? Like, it just felt really weird. Oh. Wow. So because I'm too generous, I'm getting ghosted. Case you forgot, Luke, that's Hannah. Hannah's on the phone listing and wants to talk to you.

Ah, oh, Hannah. Hey, how are you doing? Oh, hi, Luke. I'm sorry, I didn't realize I was making you feel like my personal sugar baby. Seriously, look, I obviously had no idea that it. Andrew was your friend. Also, Andrew seems like super okay with the fact that I was paying for a lot of things. I have a nice job.

He seems grateful. This is, this is to me. I mean, yeah, I mean, that's Andrew, of course. You're buying something, but it just, like, sounded like a pattern. And I don't know. I didn't want to get wrapped up in this whole, like, you're paying for everything. And I'm just along for the ride thing. I mean, that's not it at all.

I'm just, you know, trying to not seem like a money-grubbing woman myself. I have a nice job. So I wanted to get what I wanted to get without feeling guilty. So what? Isn't that a nice thing that I can take care of myself? Yeah, but I mean, like, you know, I can take care of myself too. And it just feels weird that you're just paying for everything. I don't know.

It just feels really weird. and I don't know. It's just like you do what I'm behind my back. Cool game. Well, that's fine. I'll find somebody who's hot and proud to be with a woman who can also take care of them. But wait, Hannah, what is it about paying for your men every time you go out with them that's like so important to you? Like, what is it about paying behind their back and, like, doing it every time that you like?

Not doing it every time. I just don't want to feel like I'm beholden to a man because I want really. nice things and I'm not expecting anybody to pay for that when they don't really know me yet you know but you know I mean this is so weird that you're missing out I mean you're just missing out you didn't even get to the part where I buy you clothes yet you know I want like a man I want a man who adores me and it's secure enough to you know be okay with that I mean I could buy my own clothes Because I buy my own clothes. It makes you sound like I can't do this.

Well, I mean, you could really, really use a stylist and some new clothes because, man, that outfit was not really impressed me. But I'm done trying to impress someone who gets scared off by a little generosity. Well, Luke, would you like another date with Hannah? We'll pay for it. I don't even need an option. That's true. We shouldn't pay for it. I don't think I could, you know, I guess survive a whole wardrobe overhaul to, you know, to refer to a pretty woman me.

So I don't think so. All right. Well, no hard feelings, though. Good luck. Finding someone who won't spoil you too much. Okay, baby boy. Oh, dang. Hey, Portlandia fans.
