I feel like the situation that Emma is on the phone for happens to a lot of people. Does it? She thinks she's not getting a call back because she Netflixed and chilled with a dude, but there was no chill.

Just Netflix. Just Netflix. Yeah, he probably was really let down. Yeah, so her email said that's what she thinks happened is the guy was like, so we're just Netflixing, huh? Like nothing else. All right, well, let's just talk to Emma and see what happened. Emma, how are you like, so we're just Netflixing, huh? Like nothing else. All right. Well, let's just talk to Emma and see what happened. Emma, how are you?

Hey, I'm good. How are you? So tell us what's the name of the guy that you want to call today before you tell us about Netflix and not chilling? His name is Liam. Liam. All right. Like Liam Neeson.

Ooh. That's a tough guy. You went out with Liam Hemsworth? That's probably a more up-to-date reference. So how did your date go? Or what did you guys do? So we met on Tinder, actually. And we haven't met yet,

so I just invited him to come over and hang out and just get to know each other, watch some movies. Oh, wow. That's really bold, actually, inviting a guy over, never meeting him before, to your place. Some would say stupid. Yeah. I would be worried. I don't know. I'd be worried inviting a guy over, never meeting him before to your place. Some would say stupid. Yeah.

I would be worried. I don't know. I'd be worried inviting a girl over for the first time too. Yeah. I guess I just kind of felt comfortable with him. Like he didn't seem weird or anything. Okay. Okay.

So you felt comfortable and yeah, I mean, you know, your email said that you think he might not be calling you back because you met on Tinder, like you said, and you just invited him over to watch a movie and maybe he was thinking it was going to be something else. Yeah. So like, I know like everyone does that whole thing, like, Oh, meet on Tinder, come over and like hook up. Like, but like, I didn't,

wasn't really thinking about it like that. Like I was just inviting him to come over and like, literally like, let's just sit on the couch, let's watch some movies, like get to know each other like laugh a little like so that it's like chill because like I feel like going out to dinner is awkward so I was just trying to like make it comfortable and like honestly now I'm scared that he just was like expecting like a hookup and so like that's why he's not calling me back and but I like really like him like I think he's a really like nice fun guy did uh Did Liam seem into the date, though, when it was happening, when you guys were watching Netflix?

Yeah, it was going really well. I thought we were vibing and it was super fun, but then at the end, he got kind of quiet and more reserved. I don't know. Then it was a little bit weird, but I don't really know what happened. Okay. Well, that makes sense with your theory

that he thought he was showing up for something else. I mean, you know, if that's the way I felt and I got invited over to someone's house and I'm like, okay, so we're going to watch like 30 to 40 minutes of something, who cares what it is, and then we're going to inch closer to each other and then closer and then closer

and then she's going to pounce. I'm like, I would, at the end of it, I'd be like, oh, there's no pouncing going on. Yeah. So yeah, I guess, uh, leave. That's the vibe you got. Uh, I mean, like, that's what I'm thinking. Maybe like, I can't think of anything else.

So probably like, I don't want him to think that way because I would actually like to date him. Like, I don't want it to just that way because I would actually like to date him. I don't want it to just be a come over and casual hook up. Well, it wasn't. And now he's not calling you back, so I don't think that's enough. Definitely not that. Yeah, I guess. Was there anything else on the date that happened which you might think could be the reason he's not calling you back? No, not that I can think of. I thought we really got along great.

How did the date end? So, like, we did, like, have a kiss. Okay. But it was nothing, like, big. It was just, like, a little, like, goodnight kiss. And then he left. Like, that was it. That was, you know, it didn't go further than that.

And you haven't heard from him since? No, he, like, he's not responding to me anymore at all. Okay, well, we'll play a song and then come back and see if we can figure out why he's not responding to me anymore at all. Okay, well, we'll play a song and then come back and see if we can figure out why he's not calling you back. Okay, thanks, guys. Yeah, no problem. We'll do it next. It's the Jubal Show. Hey, Emma. Yes?

What size TV do you have? I don't know. It's like maybe a 50 inch? Yeah. That's probably why you're not getting a call back. It's a fine size TV. I mean, it's fine size, but it's not like an impressive TV. Does it have the huge back as well?

The one from like the Stone Age? No, it's not that old. It's not like a 70 inch like curve TV or anything cool like that, right? Yeah. I mean, no, but if you guys want to get me one. Oh, yeah, that's not happening. It could improve your dating life. But maybe that was the deal breaker.

If you're just joining us, Emma is on the phone. She's not getting a call back from a guy named Liam. They met on Tinder. She invited him over to just watch some movies and hang out, which to a lot of people would mean like,

let's not watch movies. Right. You know? And that's why she thinks she's not getting a call back because nothing happened and she didn't even plan on doing that.

She just thought it would be cool to have him come over and felt comfortable enough. But I'm thinking the other reason could be your TV wasn't cool enough and he's like, I just need to date a chick

with a nice TV. We're about to call him and see if we can figure out what the reason is. All right, Emma, are you ready? Yes, let's do this. Okay.

All right, Emma, are you ready? Yes, let's do this. Okay. All right, here we go. Hello? Hi, may I speak to Liam? Yes, this is he. Hey, Liam, how are you? This is Jubal from The Jubal Show. Oh, really? Yeah.

I'm nervous. Why are you calling me? It's kind of cool that you're calling, but I don't know why. Okay. So I'm going to assume by your reaction that you are familiar with the show. Yeah. Yeah. All right.

Well, so I'll tell you why we're calling you in just a second. But of course, with me, as always, is my hottest wife, Alex Freyout. Hi. And English Evan. Hello. Okay. Hi. I'm sorry.

I'm calling you today because we got an email about you. This is awful. I'm dying right now. Do you know why we got an email about you? Okay. Well, I didn't cheat on anybody, so I know it's not that. Like nobody I already know is talking to me, so I'm not being pranked. So what's happening?

Well, what's the other option then since you're very familiar with the show? Oh, no. Yeah, it's about a date, isn't it? Yes, it is. How many dates you been on lately? One. Honestly, things have been weird, so I haven't been, you as as forceful with my my attempts to meet people well that kind of narrows it down then yeah if you've only been on one then uh unless you think

somebody you went on a date with years and years and years ago you know that's probably from who Emma Emma yeah correct yeah so Emma wants to know why you're not calling her back. This is weird. Okay. Have you guys seen the show Snapped? Yeah. Yeah. The wives killed the husband. Yeah.

It's all about couples who snap, but it's always, it's like never the dude though. It's always wives killing husbands. Yeah. So I go over and everything's fine. We're hanging out. All of a sudden she's like, you've got to watch this show. Okay. And I was like, okay.

And so we start watching it. And then she keeps pausing it to talk about and like analyze it. And like, what's going on in a woman's brain? And she's like, yes. Like, she's like talking about like the way you like, or not you. Hopefully, I don't think any of you have murdered somebody. She was very specific about details and like what would you do and what they did

wrong and how they could have gotten away with it and that's weird. I mean those shows are interesting like it's not like you know most women are not crazy like that and don't want to kill their husbands or boyfriends or whatever but like it is so interesting to like watch shows like that to think about people who are like that like are you kidding?

Yeah. Yeah. On a first date to analyze murders and then pause the show and be like, Hey, what do you think about this? It's weird, but there's a lot of people who really like those type of shows. Yeah, exactly. That's, you know, on a first date, I'm trying to get to know somebody and she just has this look in her eye.

Like, like this means something to her. Like it's deeper than the show. Sitting across from you Liam going like I can't wait to marry this man and then kill him. Be on the evening news. Usually though it's because the husband has done something to the wife I feel like. Yeah but I don't think it warrants murder usually.

I mean it depends. Yeah she said that. She's like oh that guy deserves whatever he gets. Oh my god. Okay. And that's the only reason right yeah like honestly she's she's cute and she was fun and playful it was just it was weird those are the good murderers if you can have a good murderer cute fun and playful yeah oh if i'm gonna get murdered by anybody it'd be cute fun and playful i'm not like an angry lunatic you know

kind of fun. All right. Well, I mean, I guess that's a legit reason if you felt creeped out by her. Like I said, I hadn't been on date in months. And then this is what I come back to. I was like, maybe I'll just stay in my house for a while longer. She thought you weren't calling her back because you assumed that you were going to Netflix and chill, but no chill happened. She just watched shows. That's why she thought.

Not that you think she might be a murderer. No, we didn't need to chill. I just felt like a chill running down my spine. All right. Well, I don't know if you forgot, Liam, how this segment works, but she's on the phone, right? Yes, she is. Hey, Emma, are you a murderer? No, I'm not a murderer.

That's exactly what a murderer would say. Exactly. Honestly, I'm shocked. Like, I would have never thought that this is the reason that you weren't, like, returning my messages. Like, yes, I like this show, but, like, it's, like,'s like it's just like it's fascinating and interesting does she sound like a murderer i'm not a murderer like i have a moral code like i would never kill somebody liam come on like i'm not a murderer i know i mean honestly i hoped that you weren't it just it like i said i just felt weird and I didn't even know how to bring it up. And it's like, I didn't want to try and like come off judgy because you can like what

you want. It just felt weird to me. That'd be so awkward if you actually did bring it up. Like, Hey, I need to ask you a question. Are you a murderer? Liam, honestly though, like I really liked you a lot. And like, no way. I hope you know now, like I'm not a murderer I'm not interested in killing you like I hope that like we can move past this because I really enjoyed spending time with you what do you think Liam would you like to go on another date with Emma

we'll pay for it um okay how about this we will pay for another date in a very public place yes right down the street from a police precinct Okay, how about this? We will pay for another date in a very public place. Yes. Right down the street from a police precinct. CCTV everywhere.

Cameras all over. What do you say? I mean, she sounds convincing. And if you're going to make sure I have a security detail, I would be happy to go out again. Oh, yay. We did it! Yes. I'm so excited. I promise I'm not a murderer and we'll have a good time.

And we can go out in public. That's fine. Well, congratulations, Emma. You got another date. Thank you so much. Can't wait to see you on the news, Liam. Next time you call me, start off by telling me what you want. That's what I was going to say, Liam. Congratulations.

You also got another date and it might be your last. The Jubal Show on demand. Hey, everyone. It's Katie Couric. Well, the election is in the homestretch right in time for a new season of my podcast.
