Josh is on the phone today for a first-day follow-up, and he's getting ghosted by Taryn. So in a second, we're going to call her and see if she'll tell us why she's ghosting him and maybe get him another date. But first, Josh, how long has it been since you heard from Taryn?

Oh, man. I think it's been like six days. I love when they're at the exact number. You know you're feeling that person if you're saying it was six days. Did you try to reach out to her in that time? I did. I tried sending text messages. I've only called there one time, you know, because I don't want to seem like creep.

Sure. But nothing. No response. No like on the text messages. You know, we have iPhones. So she used to have the red, you know, settings on. but I don't know. She just took them off.

I don't really know what's going on. Well, what happened? I would tell us about the date first. All right. So long as we're short, you know, we're on the same softball team. And, you know, after practice last week, I offered to give her a ride home. And just so, you know, guys, there's always been some sort of flirty tension. Like, she literally winked at me during, like, batting practice.

So I see her looking at me. We always lock eyes. We kind of laugh to each other. And you know what we's talking? Everything is going good. And so I told her we can hang out at my place, have a bit. have a beer, maybe chill a bit. And she said yes, very quickly. Uh, so I took that as like a green light to, you know, let's hang out at my place. Yeah. But here's the thing. So my apartment isn't

great right now and I pretty much told her that. I gave her a full disclaimer. I literally told her, I said, hey, it's going to look like one of those post-apocalyptic episodes of orders. I don't know what you guys had seen those shows. Oh no. Okay. Yeah. So she said, she said she didn't care and quote unquote, I'm not precious, she said. And so, you know, I don't know, it just was weird. Like, you know, she came over. We were hanging out and all that good stuff.

And I just don't get it, you know. It just, we were having a good time. And then she leaves. And now I had get no response from her. And we were laughing. It was like one of those random dates at my place. You know, it wasn't planned. It wasn't spontaneous.

We just went over. I had a movie plane. You know, I had chips and stuff. So everything seemed to be going really good. I just, like, I don't know. I don't know what it is. You don't know, you don't know at all why she might be ghosting you? Yeah, I mean, it just, yeah, it just sucks because I really like her.

And I haven't told her that I like her yet. I just, I know that she likes me as well, you know. So. How do you know? I mean, she came over my place, you know. Usually we always go, you know, with a team, you know, to get some, you know, sports bar or something like that. Usually we see each other like in a group setting, but when I kind of just casually asked her, hey, want to go to my place? And she said, yes, right away.

I kind of thought at that moment, okay, I think this is going to maybe the next level, wherever this may be. How messy was your place, though? You say that you warned her and you said post-apocalyptic, but like, are we talking about like mold on things? Whoa. Like kitty litter on the floor. Now that I think about it, I did have a box of pizza out from last week. I feel like this whole conversation started with the big red flag and you keep making it sound so sweet by saying, but I told her though, like you can only get away with so much.

I mean, look, if it's the, if it's my hideous apartment, you know, everything pretty much like, you know, messy everywhere, the pizza boxes and the, you know, I had like datary bottles. That's pretty gross, Josh. And that's going to be horrible, you know, that's going to be like the worst of the worst. Josh is on the phone and he's getting ghosted by Terrence. So we're about to call her and see if she'll tell us why she's ghosting and maybe get him a second date. Before we do that, though, Josh, why don't you catch us up on your situation again real quick? Yeah, I think it was going great. We went back to my place after practice.

You know, we had some lunch there watching TV. And she just ghosted me. She left. And I think that, I mean, I don't know. I think it's the pizza boxes, guys. I mean, I don't know, maybe the Gatorade bottles. I don't know. It was messy.

I told her that my place was a little messy. She said she liked my honesty. So that's where we're at. Okay. I hope you've cleaned. Well, we'll see if that is it. Are you ready for us to call her? Are you guys going to tell them on the phone or not?

Or just, do I stay quiet? Well, you can stay quiet at first. Eventually, we'll tell her. All right. All right, all right. All right. All right. All right.

All right. All right. That's cool. Hello. Hi, man. Speak to Terran, please. This is she. Terran, how are you?

This is a radio show. It's called The Jubal Show. Hi, Taryn. I'm Nina. Hi, I'm Victoria. And my name is Jubal. How are you? Wait, what is this?

It's a radio show called The Jubal Show. Like, I'm confused. I haven't like, why are I calling me? Well, we're calling you because we actually got an email about you. Okay. It's from somebody who listens to the show. And we do a segment on a show that's called the first date follow-up. That's where if you go on a date with somebody and then you end up ghosting them,

that person can email us to ask you why you're ghosting them. And we got an email about you from somebody that you're not calling back. I'm sorry. No, like this isn't real, right? Like, this is a joke. Are you guys joking? No, it's not a joke. Who are you ghosting?

Oh, my God. Is it Josh? Yes, it is Josh. Josh emailed us. He told us a little bit about your date. And he's confused. He said he really liked you and he thought you were into him. He wants to know why you're ghosting him.

honestly, I mean, if he really wants to know, I'm ghosting him because he's a mansplainer, like an aggressive mansplainer. Like, on the date, like, things would be, like, going fine, and he would literally pause what we're doing to explain something to me. And, like, not things that are, like, I don't know what they are. Oh, that might be interesting, but, like, basic things. Like, at one point, we're making out. And he literally paused to say, you know, physical chemistry is just the result of electrical signals in the brain.

And I'm like, why are you interrupting us making out to tell me about this? Like, read the room, dude. That's good. He thought it was endearing. Okay. Well, then he explained to me the rules of softball. To me, me, I've played for 10 years and I'm literally our team shortstop. I'm sorry, but like, there's no excuse for this.

He told me why the glove is shaped the way it is. Like I'm a frickin toddler. Oh, okay. Really? He's hot, like, like ridiculously hot, like extremely freaking hot. That's why I was like, you know, kind of end him at first. But, and I tried to ignore it because he is really good looking. But it's like once I spend time with him and everything was just mansplain this man's way and I was just, I couldn't.

Hold up, hold up, hold up, Hold up, Taryn. Taryn, that's, Josh, he's actually on the phone and wants to talk to you. Oh, my God. So because I know things and I wanted to share them with you,

that's why you're ghosting me because I explain stuff. That's like nerdy charm. I thought that was like a cute thing. I thought you were into that stuff. Nerdy charm. You literally stopped kissing me to break down why some people just click.

Like, who does that? That's kind of cute. I was nervous. I thought you were smart. I thought you'd appreciate insight. Yeah, insight is when someone offers you something you didn't already know. Not when some dude explains how beer is carbonated, like a plot twist. Well, maybe, maybe you could have just said something instead of just ignoring me like that.

And then, you know, you're I'm calling the radio. Like, I thought you were cool. Just, man, I just, you're just like all the rest. Well, you know, you're just like every guy who thinks being condescending of the personality. trait. Look, Josh, you're hot, but that's not enough to sit through a freaking pet talk every time I touch your arm. Cool. Okay. I understand you now. And, you know, I don't date people who lie and go. So, you know, have fun being, you know, mediocre, Taryn, have fun with that.

Okay. I thought you were. I thought you were. I thought you were. I didn't lie to you. Yeah. You know, you know, this is just, I'm embarrassed and you just, so what do we do now? We just, what, say hi and practice? Like, we ignore each other. and would you like another date with Josh? We'll pay for it. I would love another day. No, I definitely just called her mediocre. Josh, I'm good on that.

And also, I'd just like to say, nobody's toilet should look like that. Like, get it together, Josh. Oh. I had told you that my apartment was messy. Okay, you don't have to say that. You know, I was going to let it slide at first, but now I'm not.

It's, it's really nasty. Like, you're a grown man. You need, you need to figure that out. Oh, you can't hold that against me. No, no, no, no, thank you. Nope. Yeah, what do you guys do now for your games? Pretend you don't know each other, get on another team?

I'm open to forgetting everything about, like, I'm open to forgetting this ever happened, and I'm sorry, it, you know, it just, it just sucks. That's all. Yeah, I mean, I think that we were fine at practice before, so maybe things could just go back to the way they were. Pretend like you never saw us toilet. Oh, I'll never forget that.
