So in a few minutes we're going to call him and see if he'll tell us why he's ghosting her and maybe get her another date. But first Lucy how long has it been since you heard from Brandon? It's been two weeks. Two weeks. Okay. Have you reached out to him? Did you try?

Yeah I did. I invited him to a game of Tiki ball, but he didn't respond. Oh no, okay Well, let's see if we can figure it out when I tell us about the date and how you guys met Yeah Well, you know how it goes. I met Brendan on the app We talked briefly back and forth good chemistry before deciding to meet up at a local bar by us. We both like to play pool or both go at it. So yeah, it was kind of fun. It was like a hot challenge to build some flirty chemistry.

And we definitely did. We turned it into this drinking game. And any time one of us missed a shot, we would drink. You said you guys are good, so did you end up drinking a lot? Like you know, for people who aren't good at it like me, I would get hammered. Yeah, you could say that. We got a little handsy, not in like a gross way, you know, but we played a few games. We danced around, talked, we kissed each other, we shared an Uber home. It was a good time. It was definitely a good time.

You shared an Uber home so like you went home together? So, he made sure that I got home first. Oh, that's nice. He's definitely a gentleman. Yeah, he took good care of me. He's not like the other guys I've dated. Did he try? No, he didn't. He was such a gentleman.

I mean, we had a great kiss in the car, but then when it was time to go home, he said good night and didn't even try. That's refreshing. Yeah. So, I mean, as you can imagine, I was pretty excited to see him again. So, yeah. Well, why do you think you're getting ghosted then? I don't know. I did have this one moment where I kind of freaked out a little bit, not on him, but

we were like having a little moment in the corner and this drunk girl walked by and bumped into me and she made me spill my beer all over my brand new top. I kind of freaked out a little bit on her. I snapped, but I like dialed it back before I went too far. I apologize to Brandon. Describe snap like start

throwing chairs. Hey girl, do you know you just did that or was it like rawr, you know, snapping? Yeah, I like like a verbal like what the, you know, and just kind of, I don't know, I, I, I have been more becoming in the past, but, um, I, I don't know, I didn't, I didn't think it was that big of a deal and I totally apologize to Brandon for doing it. Um, that girl was definitely a mess.

Like she was not innocent, you know? Um, so yeah, I, I don't know. I'm afraid that he was just like being polite in the moment and saying it was fine. And maybe I might've turned them off from it. It's not normal for me to do that. But when someone deserves it, I, I'm like, you know, I'm only human, but I want him to know that I'm not gonna just freak out on him randomly like that, you know? Right. Would that turn you off, Jubal?

It depends how it was. Yeah, I think it might turn me off now, but past me would've loved it. What? Yeah, especially if you turned around and freaked out on me, I, but past me would have loved it. What? Yeah, especially if you turn around and freaked out on me, I'd be like, whoa, she's hot. Thankfully I've learned my lesson with that though. But it might be a little bit much, so we'll see.

We'll play a song, come back, and then call him and see if he tells us why he's ghosting you, maybe get you another date, okay? Okay, thanks y'all. All right, we'll play a song, come back, get your first day of follow up next.

Conservative podcasts can have a major political impact, but the Mycelis brothers, three siblings with a serious media strategy, are building an alternative to that. On the latest episode of Next Question with Katie Couric, I sat down with the brothers behind the Midas Touch Network to talk about how they built a progressive media powerhouse from the ground up, why audience interaction is the key to political influence, and what it takes to fight disinformation at scale, one download at a time. We should be focusing on the issues

that actually occupy a lot of the mental space in Americans' minds, but are filled with conspiracies, and we should fill it with the truth and solutions.

First date of follow-up powered the advocates, injury attorneys online at advocateslaw.com.

So in a second, we're going to get him on the phone and see if they tell us why he's ghosting her.

But first, Lucy, why don't you catch us up on your situation? So basically I went out with this guy. He was super hot, super cool, we had a good time, great chemistry. I may have snapped when a girl dropped her beer on me and I'm just worried that maybe I might have scared him off from that. But I wanted to know that that's not who I am. Like I would not just randomly do that to him. Right.

Okay. That sucks. Are you ready for us to call him? Yeah, let's do it. All right, here we go. (*phone ringing*) Hello. Hi, may I speak to Brandon, please?

Yeah, this is Brandon. Brandon, how are you? My name is Jubal. I'm calling from a radio show. It's called The Jubal Show. Hi, Brandon. This is Brandon, please? Yeah, this is Brandon. Brandon, how are you? My name is Jubal. I'm calling from a radio show. It's called The Jubal Show. Hi, Brandon. This is Nina. I'm also on the show.

Hi, and I'm Victoria. What's up? How are you? What? It's a radio show? Yes. And we're calling you because we do a segment that's called the first date follow up. That's where if you go on a date with somebody and you ghost them, that person can email

us to get you on the phone and ask why you're ghosting. So we got an email about you from somebody. Ha ha ha ha ha ha. Okay. Okay. Do you know? I'm sure it'll be good. Yeah, we think so too.

Who do you think would email us and say that you're ghosting them? I don't know, you tell me. It could be a couple of people, but. Oh, all right. Okay. Well, this is about to get really good then, Branton. Her name is Lucy.

Oh, yeah, Lucy, I remember her. Okay. Do you remember liking Lucy? Do you remember going on a date with her? Oh yeah, we had a great time, man. That girl is hot, smoking, I mean, um, um, um, um, um, yeah. Okay. I remember. Okay okay so then what's the deal

she's so bomb why are you gone she's sneaky she's sneaky she pulled some stuff on a date man that was just not cool like what we went out we had a great time and you know it ended up where we were in a bar having a good time. We staked out our little corner and we were actually relating to each other pretty well. Touchy-steely, kissy-kissy. I was into her, she was into me, I thought. And then some random dude walks up to her out of nowhere and he's like, what's up Lucy?

I'm like, who is this clown? And she's like, having small talk with him. She turns her back to me and like almost starts arguing with this guy. It doesn't introduce me. Doesn't tell me what's going on. And I'm like, what is, what is the deal here? What is she hiding something? She's smiling and flirting and all this stuff with this guy. I'm like, wait a minute. Wasn't she just kissing me then? Oh, it gets worse. We start playing pool. All of a sudden she sees a group of people, I guess, over the other side of the room with this guy. She walks over to him and just starts hanging out with him. Like she came to the bar with them.

I'm like, we just got done kissing, petting in the corner and now you're over here with a whole other group? What the hell is going on? Did you ask her? Yeah. And she apologized and she's like, uh, oh, it's just somebody I used to hang out with, you know, it's no big deal. But it just sounded weird, you know, and the whole thing just, it just didn't feel right. She was way too mysterious and you know, I was waiting for to even take me over there and introduce me to these people but it didn't happen I wasn't even upset about that I mean you know things happen but she was gone like 15-20 minutes oh that's a good amount oh that's a long time yeah she's hugging and laughing with these people with her back turned

like she's trying to block me out I'm like sounds sneaky reminded me of an X. I was chit chatted out. Well, okay. Thank you for telling us. And now I'll let you know that Lucy is actually on the phone listening and wants to talk to you. Oh, thanks guys. Appreciate it. Yeah. That's okay. Clear some stuff up for both of you guys, you know. Lucy. Hey, yeah. Hi, Brandon. Lucy. Hey, yeah. Hi, Brandon. What? Oh my God. Yeah. I can't believe you left. I want to tell you. Okay. I don't think I was gone for that long. And two, that was so unbelievably awkward for me. I did not think that these people were going to show up there. These are people that I like know, and I'm trying to kind of like fizzle out.

And so it was super awkward for me. And I did not want to introduce you to these people. Like I didn't want to mix that, you know? I understand what you're saying. It's just that the only true part about what you just said is I didn't want to mix that, you know? I understand what you're saying. It's just that the only true part about what you just said is you didn't think because you didn't take me into consideration at all. You left me hanging. And I mean, I just watched you have a beer poured all over you. Obviously I'm kind of into you if I'm still sticking around.

Okay. I mean, I definitely did not think it was a big deal. We were just talking. I mean, if you hadn't seen it was a big deal. We were just talking. I mean, if you hadn't seen some people that you knew and you were talking to them, I wouldn't be so sensitive about it. Well, let's flip the script. Let's say that I take you out and I leave you somewhere and I go to talk to a bunch of girls that I know. And then I come back and say, Hey, it's no big deal.

These are just some girls that I know. How would you feel about that? If I'm being like completely transparent and honest with you, that guy was my ex and I really don't think that there was any world where you two needed to be like talking and meeting each other and whatever. And so like with all of our old friends there, it was like weird for me and awkward. And so I wanted to just kind of like be like, what's up, but also not mix y'all together.

You know, I'm trying to fizzle that out. I'm trying to get away from that. I think that you're a great guy. I've ever heard in my life. I really like you and I did not at all want you involved in that. It just sounds sneaky and you want to talk about being uncomfortable? I'm on the radio.

She's telling you the truth. I'm on the radio. What if your guy is listening to this? Well, I guess he knows that I'm not interested anymore then. I'm just saying the whole thing sounded shady to me. That was why that was why I ghosted you. I don't even know what to say at this point. I'm just kind of confused. Where do we go from here? Well, let's flip it again, Brandon.

What if your ex-girlfriend showed up and you were with Lucy? What do you do? Introduce them. Do you? You would introduce them? Yeah. I don't know if I would. Yeah.

It's my ex-girlfriend. The way Lucy looks, if you met my ex-girlfriend, oh, I would definitely introduce him. I don't know, man. Lucy is an upgrade. I definitely used to be a different person. I did not want those stories coming to you. I would much rather just ease into this thing with you. I would definitely introduce Lucy.

I would definitely introduce Lucy. I would definitely introduce Lucy. I would definitely introduce Lucy. I would definitely introduce Lucy. I would definitely introduce Lucy. I would definitely introduce Lucy. I would definitely introduce Lucy. I would definitely introduce Lucy.

I would definitely introduce Lucy. I would definitely introduce Lucy. I would definitely introduce Lucy. I would definitely introduce Lucy. I would definitely introduce person. I did not want those stories coming to you. I would much rather just ease into this thing with you. Bren, would you like to go on another date with Lucy? We'll pay for it. I mean, it's just funny that you think I couldn't handle that. So in a public situation, you just decided that, nah, I couldn't handle it.

I'm gonna ease into it. I don't know. You know what, anybody can make a mistake, let's do it. Okay, great. Okay. You got another date, Lucy. All right, let's go. Let's do it. How about we go somewhere and not bump into your ex?

You know what, that sounds like a plan to me. Jubal's first date follow-up.
