Starting point is 00:01:43 And I said, what? What I would do if I didn't feel like I was being accepted is choose an identity that other people can't have. I knew something had happened to me in the middle of the night, but I couldn't hold on to what had happened. These are just a few of the moving and important stories on my 13th season of Family Secrets. Listen to Family Secrets on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. All right, son. Time to put out this campfire. Dad, we learned about this in school. Oh, did you now? Okay. What's first?
Starting point is 00:02:16 Smokey Bear said to... First, drown it with a bucket of water, then stir it with a shovel. Wow, you sound just like him. Then he said... If it's still warm, then do it again. Where can I learn all this? It's all on smoky bear.com with other wildfire prevention tips, because only you can prevent wildfires.
Starting point is 00:02:35 Brought to you by the USDA Forest Service, your state forester and the ad council. First date follow-up, powered by the advocates injury attorneys, online at advocateslaw.com. Jordan is on the phone today for a first day follow-up, and he's getting ghosted by a woman named Elise, so in a few minutes we'll call her and see if she'll tell us why she's ghosting him
Starting point is 00:02:55 and maybe get him, the second date that he so desperately desires. Oh. But first we got to find out what happens. So Jordan, what's up? How long has it been since you heard from Elise? Hi. It's been almost two weeks.
Starting point is 00:03:07 Okay. Okay. So it's been a little while. Have you tried to reach out to her? Just the once. I didn't really want to push. I didn't want to be that guy. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:03:16 Sure. How was the date? Or how did you guys end the date? Oh, we ended it with what felt like a good hug. It wasn't rushed. It wasn't, it was felt intention. It was a solid hug. I mean, with the ending of a good night, really.
Starting point is 00:03:33 It didn't warrant a ghosting. Not that I thought. Okay. Well, tell us about the date. Okay. Well, we actually, we met in real life, which doesn't really happen anymore. Wait, like for the first time you ever met was in real life? Yeah, it was like, yeah, it was like face-to-face.
Starting point is 00:03:53 It reminded me of high school, good times. Well, how did you meet in real life? Well, we were waiting online at a food truck, and we just started chatting. Oh, okay. Eventually, I got to it and asked her out to a cool taco spot, and she agreed, so that was nice. And we ended up meeting at the taco spot and ordered tacos, got margaritas. She suggested sharing everything, which I thought was really cool, like family style. Okay.
Starting point is 00:04:25 Yeah, it was, I mean, for me it was fine. We got to try because we got different things. I got to try her fish hot tacos. She tried my carnitas. It was, you know, it was nice. All right. I know you didn't mean that to be funny, but it was. All right, so you enjoyed each other's tacos.
Starting point is 00:04:46 And then what happened? Honestly, after, after dinner, we just kind of went for a walk. I just hung out, went for a walk and talked more. And that's when we kind of called it. And I gave her a hug, which felt, like I said, intentional and good, solid. And that was that? Okay. Was she giving you signs on the date?
Starting point is 00:05:07 Like, she'd want to see you again? Like, did it feel that was surely going to happen? Well, she felt, it felt, I don't know, it felt grounded. Like it was calm. Like it was, it was easy to talk to. And it was like, I didn't have to perform her anything. I could just be myself, which doesn't often happen. Sometimes when you first meet somebody,
Starting point is 00:05:28 you know, it's like, front, right. Why do you think she's ghosting you? I have no idea. I honestly, I replayed everything. We thought, I was wondering if it was something I might have said. Maybe I talked about my ex too much, but she asked about my ex. I didn't like bring it up awkwardly.
Starting point is 00:05:47 Okay. We ended kind of on good terms anyway. It was a relationship that fizzled out and that was that was that, That was that and kind of left it to, it left it there. What was she asking? So what was she trying to find out about you by asking that question? Like how you guys ended?
Starting point is 00:06:01 Yeah, just why, why did we split? Okay. Okay. And it wasn't like she asked about your ex and the floodgates opened and it was like three hours long of you just talking about your ex now. No, no. Jordan is on the phone and he's getting ghosted by a woman named Elise.
Starting point is 00:06:16 So we're about to call her and see if she'll tell us why she's ghosting him and maybe get him a second date. But first, Jordan, why don't you remind us about your date a little bit? Okay, yeah. So we met in person at a taco truck. We shared tacos and margaritas. We had a great time, great hug.
Starting point is 00:06:36 And I haven't heard from her, but I think it's because I talked about my ex too much. I don't know. I hope not because she talked about hers too. So that would be kind of a double standard. And she was asking about, like, I don't know, you're kind of asking the questions. All right, Jordan. You ready for us to call her? Yeah, let's do it.
Starting point is 00:06:52 Okay, here we go. Hi, man, speak to Elise, please. This is Elise. Elise, how are you? This is a Jubal show. It's a radio show. Hi, Elise. I'm Nina.
Starting point is 00:07:17 Hi, I'm Victoria. And my name's Jubal. What's going on? Oh, my God. Hi, sorry, what's going on? Lots of people. What's happening? This is a radio show.
Starting point is 00:07:26 It's called the Jubal show. And we do a segment on our show called the first date follow-up. So what it is is if you go out on a date with somebody and then you end up ghosting to that person, that person can email us to call you and ask why you're ghosting them. And we got an email about you, at least. That's why we're on the phone. Oh, uh, wait, what? You said, I was, wait, you got an email from someone.
Starting point is 00:07:51 I'm so confused. His name is Jordan. You went on a day with a dude named Jordan a few weeks ago. Wait. No, I like Jordan. Oh my God. No, I don't ghosting him. You're not?
Starting point is 00:08:04 I did not mean to ghost him. Jordan said that you haven't talked to him for like almost two weeks now. And he's trying to get a hold of you. And he responded. And he's, no. No, I liked Jordan.
Starting point is 00:08:18 Wait, is he okay? Where have you been for two weeks? So let me think. The morning after, like right after our date, my sister went into labor. Like early,
Starting point is 00:08:30 she went into early labor, like an emergency C section early. But, Like I sent the whole like next day at the hospital. And then for the next few days, I was running back and forth. Okay. From the hospital, helping my sister and my brother-in-law, just going to their home, going back to the hospital, back to board, back and forth. Like, I flew out of town, you know.
Starting point is 00:08:55 So like I. Sure. You're busy. I'm still out of town right now and I'm still like fratigals. Oh. I feel like I feel really bad. I'm telling myself. I'd respond once things calm down, but then, like, things just have not calmed down.
Starting point is 00:09:10 And so, like, days have, like, turned into chaos. I feel really bad. Oh, okay. Well, at least Jordan is actually on the phone and wants to talk to you. Hi, your sister. Is she okay? Oh, my God. I need to, like, I didn't know you'd be here.
Starting point is 00:09:29 Hi, she is okay. Thank you for asking. She's great. Actually, she's a new mom. She's really happy, but I'm sorry. Oh, that's great. Well, congratulations to your sister and your family. That's awesome.
Starting point is 00:09:43 I'm not cool with you. Not calling me back for two weeks. Oh, my God. I'm really sorry. That's on me. I guess I definitely should have tested or something, but. I'm just saying this. I feel like, you know, two weeks is a lot.
Starting point is 00:10:04 long time and I feel like if we're going to see each other, if I'm going to be somebody that's going to be seen, it's like, I've got to be a priority too. You know what I mean? Wow. I mean, it's she, your sister was the one that had the baby. I mean, how hard is it to help out without taking 15 minutes to make a home call? Wow. My God. I don't even like I don't know what to say here because I feel like you were such a different person on the day and what you're saying now is so I I'm like I'm like flabbergasted right now like you I'm so disgusted I don't even I genuinely don't know what to say I'm the one that's out around for two weeks darned
Starting point is 00:10:48 what did you want me to do I went on one date with you yeah but but doesn't make any any sense we had tacos together now every time I drive by that place I think of your fish tacos and I And I get upset, man. I cried like twice since I've driven past that place. Why? Okay, that's really weird, Jordan. There's no such thing as leaving someone on ghosted. There's just being ghosted.
Starting point is 00:11:16 This is getting really, really weird. Would you like another date with Jordan? We'll pay for it. You know, I did, and now I absolutely don't. I don't care who pays for it. I would rather spend time with my sister and my sister's new beautiful baby. This is so cringe. Like I'm so,
Starting point is 00:11:35 I'm cringing. I'm sorry, at least. No, listen, it's, it's cool. We had the chat.
Starting point is 00:11:42 We talked about it. It's no big deal. Whatever. It is what it is. But tell your sister, I said congrats, okay? Yeah,
Starting point is 00:11:50 that won't mean anything because she doesn't know you. Oh. Oh, so then us saying that too doesn't help. But congrats. Joubles's first date follow up. Only on the new hits 106.1.
