Lauren is on the phone today for a first day follow-up, and she's getting ghosted by a guy named named Tommy so in a few minutes we'll call him and see if he'll tell us why he's ghosting her and maybe get her a second date but first Lauren how long has it been since you heard from Tommy it's been about a week now okay pretty standard for the like freak out moment yeah have you been reaching out to him in that time yeah uh yeah I texted him but you know because I wanted him to text me first I didn't hear anything from him so then I figured I would

send him a text, but I haven't heard anything back. Such a stressful game. Why don't you tell us about the date? Yeah, so I really liked him because he just had that effortless music guy kind of vibe. You know, like a worn-in denim jacket,

that messy hair, that it looked like it just was effortless, but it probably took him actually like flowered it. Perfectly placed hair. Yeah, he also, yeah, he also knew every lyric without it being annoyed. and he just felt really passionate, grounded, and electric to me.

The date was fun. He invited me to see one of his favorite bands at his local dive bar, and it was fun. They had really good nachos there, and, yeah, the date was going really great. He got me a drink. He introduced me to a couple of his friends, and he kept saying things like, just wait for the bridge. This part changes lives.

and then something awkward happens. Okay, what's the awkward thing? Yeah, so this is what I think made him ghost me potentially. Yeah, so during one of the slower songs, I thought it would be cute to vibe along, so I lit the little tea light candle on our table, and I waved it gently like, you know, a concert lighter. Oh, right.

That's cute. Yeah, but the wax on the, the candle melted and it's splattered all over his jeans. Oh, no. Yeah. Yeah. He jumps up yelling all my

legs on fire and I was like, oh my gosh. I tried to help by patting it down with a napkin, but that just smeared the wax everywhere. And it also probably looked pretty awkward with me doing that on his leg in public, you know.

Yeah. That's funny. Yeah. so yeah that was a really awkward moment for me I wish it didn't happen but he actually laughed it off and even joked oh you really brought the heat tonight that's what you said after that I was like okay I thought I really messed up but you know he made light of the situation and didn't you know take it too seriously didn't make a really big deal out of it so we stayed for the encore we danced a little bit we even shared some fries on the way out and then And like I said, nothing. I didn't hear anything from him. No text, no follow-up, no response to my text that I sent to reach out to him. So I don't know exactly what's going on, but I'm thinking maybe did I ruin his jeans?

And is he mad at that? Okay. Did I root in night because of that? And maybe his trust in candles because of the wax melting on him. I'm just not sure what's going on now. with him. Okay, well, we'll play a song. Come back and then call him and see if he'll tell us and maybe get to a second date if you still want one, okay? Okay, yeah, thank you. All right, we'll get your first day follow-up next. On the latest episode of next question with me, Katie Couric, I sat down

with Bernie Sanders, who is 84 years old, has spent 34 years in Congress, and he can still pack a rally with people a quarter of his age. Denver, 34,000 people come out. Salt Lake City, 20, thousand people are, you know, huge turnouts. People are really dissatisfied about the status quo. His fighting oligarchy tour with AOC and other young progressives has become a movement, but is his message too far to the left? Well, he certainly doesn't think so. Is that sound like a radical idea, Katie.

Is that too far left for you? Okay, okay. I get your point, Bernie. We talk about the billionaire class, the cost of living. And of course, the government shutdown, not to mention the current state of the Democratic Party. To me, the failure of the Democratic Party has been an unwillingness to recognize the relationship.

Right in the middle of your first day and follow up and if you're just joining us, Lauren is on the phone and she's getting ghosted.

by a dude named Tommy and we're about to call him and see if he'll tell us why he's ghosting her and maybe get her a second date if she still wants one. But before we do that, Lauren, why don't you break down your date again for us real quick? Yeah, so Tommy was like this cool music guy.

I was really into him. We had a great and fun date at this bar. We saw one of his favorite local bands there and it was fun, but at one point things got awkward because I lit up the little tea light candle on our table and I waved it. like a concert lighter and then the wax

melted onto his jeans. I tried to like awkwardly and quickly, you know, wipe it off but that didn't really help that smear to everywhere. And he ended up actually laughing it off, but I still fell awkward

about it, especially now that he apparently has ghosted me. So I'm not sure exactly what's going on and if he's upset with me for that or whatever the reason is. I think this wax comes out. But anyway, we'll see if that's it. We'll be ready for us to call him? Yes, I am.

Okay, here we go. Hello? Hi, I may I speak to Tommy, please? Hey, Tommy. How are you? This is the Jubal show. It's a radio show. Hi, Tommy. I'm Nina. I'm Victoria. and my name's Jubal. How are you? I'm a little confused, to be honest. What's this? Have you ever listened to the show before?

No, sorry, I haven't. Okay, hey, that's fine. We do a segment on the show, and it's called the first date follow-up. What that is, is if you go on a date with somebody and you end up ghosting them, that person can email us to get you on the phone and ask why you're ghosting. And we got an email about you from someone you went on a date with that you're not calling back. Any idea who that would be? Yeah.

Was this Lauren? Yes, it is. So Lauren emailed us. She said that she thought you were awesome, but you haven't gone back to her at all after your date, and she's wondering if you wouldn't mind telling us why you're ghosting her. Yeah. Okay, well, this is going to be a little awkward,

but I ghosted. her she was fine she was she was lovely actually um but i ghosted her because she uh she booed the opening act yeah she told us you guys went to a bar to watch like some uh a couple bands that you like or whatever and she thought that you might be ghosting her because she spilled wax on your pants with a candle oh god no i i it was wax i didn't care that was that was fine i booed the opening band Yeah Like how

Was she just like Boo? Or like Boo get off the stage You suck I mean I know She uh

I mean The opener started And that's my buddy up there She was booing your buddy Yeah Yeah She booed my buddy Um

She she stood there Midsong And said Boo this is Not the vibe I had been, dude, I just wanted to die. I was so embarrassed. It's been a long time since I've seen somebody actually booed somebody.

It's not yet in a venue like that. What did you say to her? Did you say anything? Like, that's my friend? Yeah, I told her, you know, I was, he was a vibe, you know, he's good. And she just kind of rolled her eyes in me, so that was it. Oh, man.

Okay, so you made that decision early in the night that you were just out. Yeah. finished the day. I didn't walk out on her. I just finished the day and chalked right up to a bad evening. Well, yeah, thank you for being honest with this, Tommy. I appreciate it.

Now I need to let you know that Lauren is actually listening and has been wanting to talk to you. Really? Hi, Mr. My friend is a vibe. Yeah, hi, Lauren. Hi, Tommy. So I think that's pretty ridiculous to me. You go to me because I booed the old.

opener? You, you told my friend he sucked. I don't see why I should want to be around you again. I'm sorry. Oh, I was just joking, and he even laughed about it. You said try singing from your diaphragm, not with ego. I don't think there's a lot there for us, hon. I mean, you know what?

That guy was wearing fingerless gloves and quoting John Mayer. I'm pretty sure he'll live, just because I booed him, you know? I don't think that's such a big deal. And honestly, Tommy, he wasn't good. I mean, it's just constructive criticism. You don't Yelp review bands in real time. That's insane. Well, I felt like you brought me to see a middle school talent show or something.

Oh, no. Yeah, they shouldn't be up there if they can't handle any feedback, especially if it was constructive feedback, like how I was providing. Booing is not constructive criticism, Lauren, and that's something that they teach in kindergarten. I think we're done here. I don't want to talk to you anymore, Lauren. I'm sorry.

Okay, yeah, well, I'm sorry. I mean, I don't know what to tell you, Tommy, but he just wasn't good. What did you want me to do? Just live? No, smile and nod like I had to do for the rest of the date. Oh. See, even you thought he was bad.

You were smiling and nodding while he was performing. Tommy, would you like another day with Lauren? We'll pay for it. Not a chance in hell, my man. Okay, fine. Just have fun with your music that no one wants to listen to anyway, besides you, I guess. And your friend's never going to get better with an enabler like you for a friend.

Oh, man. And if you ever change your mind, just call me. Okay. All right. Jubil's first date follow-up On the latest episode of Next Question with me, Katie Couric, I sat down with Bernie Sanders. We've talked many times over the years,
