First Date Follow Up There's a woman on the phone for a First Date Follow Up right now and if I could describe the first date that she went on I would describe it as

a 1970s romantic comedy musical featuring John Travolta It's oddly specific It's very specific and I say that because her email says she met this guy at a karaoke bar and they sang a song from Grease together, which is exactly what I described. So I don't know how the actual date was, but that's what I picture now in my head. Her name's Amanit.

Amanit, how are you? Hi, I'm doing well. How are you doing? You said that you met this guy at a karaoke bar. First of all, before we get into your date, what's his name? His name is Nathaniel. Nathaniel, all right. And how long has it been since your date with Nathaniel?

Well, it's been a week and a half since our date. A week and a half, all right. That's long. Been counting down the hours. So how many times have you tried to reach out to him? Well, just like a few, not that many. I mean, I texted him and i didn't hear anything back so um i texted one more time and then nothing that might not be enough this might be the first

time i've ever heard not enough i would say three times would be appropriate but anyway not what i do is not calling him back that's true yeah so you're getting ghosted obviously how do you meet him first of all well so i was we met him out um my girlfriends and i we went out for um like a fun night on the town and he was out with a group of friends and it was actually his um buddy's bachelor party and we were out there just just us three um girls just like got all dressed up and just wanted to have fun. We hadn't seen each other in a while. But so there was a karaoke bar. It was a karaoke bar. And I usually would never do anything like that.

But my friends like pushed me on stage because this guy needed a partner. And so I got up there and eventually I just did it. And I thought it was really fun. All right, yeah, your email said that you sang the song from Grease. And how'd you do? Was it good?

Did it bring the house down? I think so. I mean, I think it was pretty good. I liked it. I think people were like... Were you guys drunk? Yeah, I, yes. Okay.

And who asked who out, like, on an official date? Well, after he thanked me and offered to buy me a drink, and so I said, sure, why not? And it was fun. We were chatting, like like the whole night we were talking and then he got my number and texted me and he asked me out on a date and we went out it was really fun another fun night I thought at least I had fun where did you guys go we went to a drive-in movie whoa keeping the 70s theme yeah it was like old school I liked it okay well that I mean that's cool I don't know when the last time I went to a driving movie was.

I didn't even know they still existed. Yeah. I don't know. I just have a crush on him still. I think he's really cute and he's really polite and funny. We laughed a lot and I don't know. I'm just kind of into him. Well, why do you think he's not calling you back then?

You know, I have no idea. I wasn't pulling up his phone. I wasn't being needy or anything. I just wanted to let him know I had a fun time and then would like to see him again, but then nothing. The only thing that made me feel like he might be a little bit kind of judgmental is the movie that I picked was, and I really wanted to see it, was the new Space Jam movie. And I was pumped to see it, but he didn't see it. Now that I think back,

he didn't seem that excited. The movie that everybody's ripping on right now? Apparently it's trash, but... Did you guys do anything in the car? Kiss, make out? We did a little bit. You kissed, and then how did things end? That's it, really.

Just a little bit of kissing in the car, and then how did things end? That's it, really. Just a little bit of, like, kissing in the car, and then I went home. So the first time that you guys met, he was drunk, and so were you. And then you guys went out, and now he's not calling you back. Yeah, I'm very confused. What are you trying to say? I'm just, like, maybe he just thought that it was somebody else. Maybe he got confused, or, like, maybe. Strobe light honey. You know. Strobe light honey. Big ogles. Yes. Yeah, he might have thought you looked was somebody else. Maybe he got confused or like maybe strobe light honey.

Strobe light honey. Beer goggles. Yes. Yeah, he might have thought you looked at someone different. You know, beer goggles. Yeah, but at least you could text someone and just tell them at the least maybe that you're not interested

and then they would leave you alone and not wonder. That's true. If that was the case though, we would never be doing this segment. That's true. That's true. I am curious to know why because I don't know.

I thought it was fun and then maybe I could in the future that's true that's true I am curious to know why because I don't know I'm I I thought it was fun and then maybe I could in the future not do whatever I don't know we'll see I mean it could be anything

under the sun okay we'll try and figure it out for you we'll play a song come back and then call him and get your first date follow up okay

okay alright we'll do it next it's the Jubal show nothing but a G thing that would be my go-to karaoke song. Really? I think if I had to do it. Karaoke song.

Alex, what would your SP? Thanks for the info. It'd probably be a country song. Which one? Mud on the Tires? I mean, that's a possibility. Wagon Wheel? There's just so many that I could choose from.

I don't even know. That's putting me on the spot. I'm on it is on the phone. The reason I ask is because I'm on it. Met Nathaniel, the guy that she wants to call for a first date, follow up at a karaoke bar. They did karaoke together. He was there for a bachelor party. He asked her to do a duet.

She did the duet. And then they ended up going on a date to a drive-in movie. And she doesn't know why he's not calling her back. It's been about a week and a half. She's texted him twice and heard nothing. And when we talked to her about it just a second ago, she couldn't think of any real reason that he wouldn't call back. She thought the date went great,

so we're about to call him and figure it out. All right, I'm on it. Are you ready for us to call Nathaniel? Yeah, I am. All right, well, here we go. Hello? Hi, is this Nathaniel? This is he. Who might I say is calling?

Nathaniel, you might say that this is Jubal from the Jubal Show calling. And this is Alex Fresh from the Jubal Show. And this is English Evan from the Jubal Show. And the Jubal Show is a radio show. I don't know if you've heard of it or not. I have. I just wasn't expecting a call from the radio station I listen to. What exactly is this about? Well, we do a segment

on the show called The First Date Follow-Up. It's where if you go out on a date with someone and then end up ghosting them, they can email us to get you on the phone and go,

hey man, that's weird that you're not talking to them right now, so why? Yeah, okay. I've heard this a bit before, so I guess, okay, what is this about?

It's about a date you went on. I think I might know who this is. Is this about I'm on it? Yes, it is. I didn't think I would wind up here after that date, but... You know what? I don't think any of us knew we were going to wind up here, but here we are.

All right, well, what did she tell you guys exactly? Well, she told us that she met you at a bar doing some karaoke. You guys sang a duet together of Grease, Nice Choice. And then you made plans to go to a drive-in movie. You went to a drive-in movie, and everything from her perspective was great. you even kissed a little bit and then after that that's the last time you talked to her and you haven't responded to her text or phone call since and so she's wondering why okay so she basically sounds like she told you everything except for the reason why i'm not

calling her back. You know, the date went great. I was having a really good time. I actually asked her out for a second date because I thought things were going great. I wanted to see her again. But when I asked her out for a second date, she didn't say yes. She said, I would love to. I just have to ask my parents first.

What? When she said that, I said, how old are you? And she said, 26. And I was like, well, why you're 26 years old? Why do you have to ask your parents permission with who you're going out? And she kind of like tiptoed around and she's like, oh, I just like to let them know what's going on and get their opinions and everything. Regardless, it was just very weird. It immediately turned me off.

It's like, well, what else do you need to get permission for your parents for? If like, I want to spend the night at your place or you spend the night at my place, you don't have to ask them permission for that. Like, did you ask them permission to take us to see Space Jam? Imagine what your in-law experience would be like.

Oh, dude, they'd be all up in your business all the time. Yeah, normally I don't think that far ahead, but now when she's asking permission for a second date, I'm just like, okay, I don't... I'm out. I'm just, you know, just sort of like, cards on the table, fold, I'm gonna go home.

I'm not good with poker analogies, but I'm just... I get what you mean. I'm surprised that the parents weren't on the first date with us as chaperones. That would have been the final stroll. You guys are sitting in the backseat. They drive you to the drive-in movie. That'd be amazing. Yeah.

I don't know. Maybe for our next day a week, they can drop us off at the mall or something. I'd rather just, you know, be with someone who acts like, yes, I'd rather just be with someone who acts like they're their age. And, you know, I'm close with my parents, but I'm not calling them up being like, hey, mom, what did this girl I met on Tinder? What do you think about her? And my mom's like, oh, that's a total seven smoke show. You should bang her.

It's a weird thing, you know? All right. Well, thank you for telling us that. That's interesting. I would like to know why she's 26 and still ask her parents for permission to go on dates and do things. Wouldn't you, Nathaniel? Wouldn't you like to know why?

Are you about to bring her on? Well, she's already on, actually. Yeah, she's already on and wants to talk to you and has been listening and you are smart, Nathaniel. I kind of forgot about that. I'm on it.

Yeah. You're on it. Yeah. You're on with Nathaniel now. Hi, Nathaniel. Hi. Sorry I didn't text you and let you know the reason, but at least now you know. Well, I don't know. Right now with my situation, I mean, I have to. I have to ask my parents. What do you mean you have to ask? You're not a kid anymore. You're an adult. You can make your own decisions. You don't need to ask mommy and daddy to hold your hand for everything you do.

Yeah, I guess I don't really have a choice and it kind of sucks, but I mean, that's what it is right now. So why is that what it is right now? Are you like weirdly Christian or something? I'm just very confused as to why you as an adult woman need to ask your adult parents permission to see another adult man. Are you Amish? What's going on here? I'm not Amish. And I don't know that they just, it's always been that way. And they said it's their house, their rules. And until I move out and they want to know where I'm at and what I'm doing.

You could just say, Hey, I'm going out with a guy. You don't need to say, Hey, am I allowed to go out with a guy? Do you at least understand why it's weird for me and why I'd be turned off by it? Especially, like, I'm not asking to, like, go hook up with you while your parents are in the other room. It's just you are going to go out with somebody. Like, do you have to ask permission to go to the bathroom in the house? Like, what's going on in that situation? No, I guess they're just a little bit, like, strict about some things.

And I really like you, and I would like to see you again. And, I mean, unfortunately, that's my situation right now. But I wouldn't be opposed to, you know, like, not telling my parents where I was going and seeing you again. Whoa. You're willing to break curfew? Yeah. Wow.

Well, in the past year, I mean, I've gone on dates with people, but I haven't really found anyone that I liked. But you're different. I would definitely, I would totally break my mom and dad's rules for you. Whoa. I mean, look, you were great. You really are. It's just the situation is a little weird for me. I don't feel like dating someone.

That's not made me feel like I'm back in high school again. So if you wind up moving out, maybe hit me up. But until then, sorry, that's a no from me, dog. Oh, man. All right. Well, I'm on it. I'm sorry we couldn't get you another date. Oh, really?

Are you sure? Because I don't know. I think it'd be really fun and it'd be a good time. My answer is no. Just take it, please. If you keep hitting me up, I might have to tell your mom and dad what you're doing behind their back.
