First date follow up. Fred is on the phone today for. First date follow-up.
Brett is on the phone today for a first date follow-up.
He's getting ghosted by a woman named Georgina.
Brett, thank you for your email.
Thanks for agreeing to do this segment.
Before we get into your date and stuff,
how long has it been since you heard from Georgina?
It's now been like about a week and a half.
Okay.
Just like no contact.
All right. How many times have you tried to get a hold of her in that week and a half okay just like no contact all right how many times you try to get
a hold of her in that week and a half uh well before that i reached out to her a couple of
times and then after she first got back to me and then she just stopped and so now that i haven't
heard anything i thought maybe you guys could kind of get to the bottom of what's up because
it was really our second date we went on a great first date and like i get getting ghosted after the
first date like who wants to explain that they're just not your type but we hit it off and we went
on a second date and it was great and then like i reached out to her saying you know i had a nice
time she got back to me and then i reached out about going out again and then nothing i just
like don't know what could have been so bad that she's not even getting back to me yeah so let's
talk about the second date then was there anything about it that was different than the first like
did you still feel the connection that you guys had on that first date we had such a great time
we like still were like kind of getting to know each other but like it
wasn't that awkward like job interview kind of stuff it was just like telling stories and kind
of sort of stuff that we have in common and like different like musical tastes and stuff like you
know really just kind of connecting um in general and like both regretful that the night had come to
an end but we both had to work.
And, I mean, the only thing that was a little, like, interesting was I got pulled over when I was, like, driving her home.
I got off with a warning, so it's not like, you know, like I had a arrest record or something terrible.
You know, it was like.
Were you speeding?
Well, they, I wasn't speeding, but they suggested that I had improper lane change.
People are very passionate about blinker usage.
That's true.
If you didn't use a blinker, maybe that's what turned her off.
I just said she would say something.
I mean, we kind of joked about it afterwards, but yeah, I don't know.
Maybe she found someone else.
Did she seem fine after you got pulled over?
Was everything still the same, or was she a little more uncomfortable?
We just kind of laughed it off.
I mean, it didn't seem to change too much, I wouldn't say.
So let's go back to the date, though.
Like, what could have happened?
Is there anything that could have happened there?
No, I don't think so.
I mean, we had like some drinks and some food and like just good conversation, like nothing awkward or awkward or no, I can't believe you think this.
I've gone over it a hundred times.
It's really, we like the same things.
Do you chew with your mouth open, Brett?
No, and I even made sure not to talk with my mouth.
That's another thing that people hate, too.
Yeah.
Yeah, I was on my best behavior,
and Georgina's just wonderfulorgina's just like wonderful
and she's pretty honest and straightforward at least in the like a couple of dates i can't
imagine that she wouldn't just tell me but and you have no idea why she might be ghosting you
other than maybe it has something to do with you getting pulled over i mean that's the only thing
i could think of everything i got to that point i I mean, like I said, we were, when we left, we were, like, both kind of bummed that the night was over.
And that, like, we, you know, we were talking about making plans to do some other stuff.
And when I reached out about that, it just, like, crickets.
Okay, what's the last thing that she said to you at the end of the night?
Be careful getting home, and we'll talk soon.
So like no kissing?
No, no.
We had a good night kiss, but
nothing crazy, I guess.
Alright, well we'll try to figure it out then. We'll play a song,
come back, and then call her and see if she'll
tell us why she's ghosting you and get you another
date if you still want one after hearing the reason why, okay?
Okay, that would be great, guys.
I'd really appreciate your help.
Alright, we'll play a song. Come back and get your first first date follow-up next if you're just joining us for today's first
date follow-up brett is on the phone he's getting ghosted by georgina and he has no idea why so
we're about to call her and see if see if she'll tell us why she's ghosting him and maybe get him
another date if he still wants one brett before we call her just refresh everybody's memory tell
us a little bit about your date with georg. Well, so it was actually a second date.
We had a great time, stayed out later than we planned, had drinks and dinner.
All of a sudden, I'm not hearing back from her.
The only thing I can think of is that I got pulled over on the way home, driving her home,
and that was a little awkward,
but I can't imagine that's a good enough reason
not to even respond.
All right, we'll call her right now, okay?
Oh man, that would be appreciated.
All right, here we go.
Hello?
Hi, may I speak to Georgina, please?
This is she. Who's this?
Hi, Georgina. How are you?
My name is Jubal from a radio show called The Jubal Show.
Hi, Georgina.
That's Nina.
Hi.
Hi.
And that's Victoria.
So there's three people on the phone with you right now.
Why are you guys calling me? Is that something?
I love that that's a reaction. We got an email about you from somebody who listens to the show. You got an
email about me? Yeah. So we do a segment called the first date follow-up. It's where if you go
out on a date with someone and then you end up ghosting them, they can email us to get you on
the phone and find out what happened. And who is this person? Have you gone on a date recently?
A few weeks ago.
Do you remember that person's name?
Um, Brett?
Yes, that's who it is.
This is a fun game.
Oh, God.
Brett emailed us because he said he had a really good time with you, thought you guys had a great date,
and he's wondering what happened and why you're ghosting him.
He knows why.
He got pulled over for a DUI.
Oh. Wait.
He said he just got pulled over
and then he got a warning
and that was it because it was a lane change.
That's not true? No.
No. He actually
had to do like a fertilizer test.
No, I did like a DUI.
Oh.
Oh my gosh.
Are you on the phone?
Yeah, Georgina, that's Brett.
Sorry.
I'm glad I am because you're telling me I got a DUI.
I got one.
So, Georgina, you say that Brett got a DUI.
Brett, did you get a DUI?
I did not get a DUI.
Not at all.
I got pulled over for an improper lane
change when the officer
approached the car. He asked
where we had been. I told him where he was
that we'd been out.
He had me get out of the car.
He had me do a field sobriety test
and a breathalyzer like the whole
nine yards. You forgot to tell us
that part. It was uncomfortable and
embarrassing. You would have gotten
a DUI if you had not talked your way
out of it.
I had a breathalyzer taught my way
out of it. I did a sobriety
test. I
passed it. It wasn't like I
fooled the test. You barely passed it.
You barely passed it.
You barely passed the
breathalyzer these get degrees
what? how do you get out of it?
these get degrees
I passed the test and they didn't say
you did a great job or you
did it with flying colors
he just told me I wasn't drunk
he did not say all that
where are you coming from
why are you BSing
I would have been in cuffs
look how about this?
I'm sorry that we got pulled over.
I was busy paying attention to what you were saying
and, like, changed lanes without, like, looking and seeing there was a cop behind us.
No, it's not your fault at all.
I'm just saying, like, I wasn't driving drunk.
Are you seriously saying because you were paying attention to me,
that's why you changed the lanes wrong?
No.
No, I didn't put on my signal.
You were buzzed.
Let's call a spade a spade.
You were buzzed.
Enough is enough.
I mean, I was obviously not buzzed or in, like, I faced no problems.
I just, like, I'm sorry that I got pulled over.
But, like, what if, like, next time you drive or we get an Uber?
No,
absolutely not.
You embarrassed me the first time.
Why would I take that shot again?
You think he embarrassed you?
Georgina?
Yes.
He embarrassed me.
I don't get pulled over for DUIs.
He's really confused.
Cause I didn't get a DUI.
What are you talking about?
You've never been pulled over.
Were you guys drinking together?
Yes.
Listen, if she went behindi yes listen i would say i think we would have gotten a dui listen to me if you want to put your life in danger that's
your problem not mine you got in the car with me what are you talking about put your life
yeah look you know i mean i appreciate it but like i all you have to say is no, I get it.
It's all right.
Like, you don't have to keep berating me.
I didn't get a DUI.
No.
How about this?
No.
Georgina, would you like to go on another date with Brett?
We'll pay for it.
No.
Okay.
No.
No.
It doesn't sound like he got a DUI, though.
I didn't.
You want me to drive down to the station?
I'll show you.
Be careful with that. No, I would say. He want me to drive down to the station? I'll show you. Be careful with that.
No, I would say.
He was buzzed driving.
I drove home afterwards.
And he talked his way out of it with the cop.
How do you talk your way out of that?
By blowing into a breathalyzer and taking a field sobriety test.
I talked my way out of it.
Look, I mean, the cop thanked me for being so agreeable
because he said it was clear I wasn't drunk.
It's not like...
You realize buzz driving is drunk driving, right?
Yes, and so does the cop.
And he's the one who's like, you're not buzzed.
We had drinks, but we died.
I don't want to go out with you again.
I get it.
I don't want to.
Okay. And if somebody doesn't call you go out with you again. I get it. I don't want to. Okay.
And if somebody doesn't call you back, get the hint.
Oh.
Whew.
I mean, that says it all.
Okay, you weren't buzzed, and you definitely didn't get a DUI.
No, not at all.
And, like, the idea that I embarrassed her somehow by like, I get it.
If we got an arrest,
you had to like get someone to come pick her up or something.
Like I totally understand being embarrassed,
but like I was the one who was embarrassed at like about it happening. But the fact that like,
I wasn't drunk and that like he gave me a warning and just told me to be
careful changing lanes.
Yeah.
I didn't think that like, that was so embarrassing.
It was just embarrassing for me,
but apparently I must have, like, triggered something.
I feel like she was drunk.
I don't know what it was.
I mean, after all of that and her response,
Brett, would you even have wanted to go on a second date
if she agreed?
Well, no, because that's, like, a whole different side.
I mean, she was so cool and, like, easygoing before, and now it's like I've embarrassed her. I mean, she was so cool and like easygoing before.
And I was like, I've embarrassed her.
I've done all these things.
Probably because you didn't use your blinker, like I said.
I mean, not using a blinker saved my life, I guess.
