First date follow-up.

Lisa is on the phone today for a first date follow-up.
She's getting ghosted by a dude named Russ.
So in a few minutes, we're going to call him, see if he'll tell us why he's ghosting her,
and maybe get her another date.
But first, Louisa, how long has it been since you heard from Russ?
It has been an entire week since we last had any contact.
I know.
How many times have you reached out to him in that week?
Well, honestly, like the night after our first date or like the night of our first date,
like after I went home, I texted him.
Thank you.
You know, it's like I had such a great time.
And then he did respond the next day.
And then like that was really it. Like the conversation just stopped there.
Like he didn't have any banter with me after that at all.
So it was like literally just that night and the next morning.
And that's it.
Did the date go well?
That's the thing.
Like it went awesome.
Like it was so good.
Like textbook.
It was great.
Tell us about it.
I was talking to him for a few weeks before we ever like met up in person,
which I think is important to mention.
Cause like,
I really don't like to
meet up if i feel like someone's like a waste of my time but this guy really seems like great
so like okay fine like we'll just do coffee like let's not get crazy do something casual
and so that's what we did we went to like my favorite little coffee shop and okay i know this
is like silly but like right off the rip when we got there, there was this, just this woman with her dog.
And Russ immediately, like, just bent down and started, like, loving up on this dog.
Oh.
Like, that warmed my heart.
I'm like, I'm such a dog girl.
Like, this is great.
And then, I'm sorry, the dog peed on his shoe?
Just a little bit.
It was just like this puppy was so excited.
So she just straight up peed on his shoe.
And then it was so funny.
But then the dog mom was like, let me pipe through.
Like, coffee.
I'm so embarrassed.
I'm so sorry.
So we got free coffee out of it.
And yeah, so his shoes will be fine.
I'd let anything pee on my shoe for free for free coffee oh that's good to know walking down the hallway i'm like you must want free coffee
that is like the cutest little coupon and like that's how we felt like it was just such a cute
little date and then honestly like we were having such a good time that we just like kept it rolling into dinner like we did coffee we were talking for a long
time and just like enjoying each other's company so we said why not we went out grab dinner oh my
gosh you could see like every star in the sky was a beautiful night and like it even ended in like a
sweet like nothing crazy but like a sweet little good night kiss so the vibes were
right for me like i was i enjoyed myself so i don't really get it well he kept going too like
i feel like dates don't get a second location if they're not going well did anything happen maybe
on the date that could have been a little bit of a rub okay i will tell you like the one thing that
i can think of after like racking my brain i guess
like during dinner he did get up to go to the bathroom and like maybe he was just trying to
like dodge the conversation we were having because like i will be accountable i was ranting a little
bit about my like work nemesis that's funny that word that's so funny okay like maybe i shouldn't have used it
like maybe that made it sound like like i'm being dramatic but this is like this is a reply all type
girl she's a girl who wants to take credit for my work like she's just a thorn in my side and i was
just kind of like i was letting a little steam out so maybe he thinks i'm like suspish because
like i have a nemesis in general.
Yeah.
I mean,
I can see how somebody would think that'd be like,
okay,
maybe she's just got a problem with everybody.
Cause they don't know you very well yet.
Right.
Right.
Right.
Literally.
That's the only thing I can think of.
And it was like a little snippet of like an overall great night.
Okay.
Well,
we'll play a song,
come back and then call him.
See if he'll tell us why he's ghosting you and maybe get you another date, okay?
Okay.
All right.
We'll play a song, come back, and get your first day follow-up next.
Hey, everyone.
It's Katie Couric.
Well, the election is in the homestretch, and I'm exhausted.
But turns out the end is near, right in time for a new season of my podcast, Next Question.
This podcast is for people like me who need a little perspective and insight.
I'm bringing in some FOKs, friends of Katie's, to help me out, like Ezra Klein, Van Jones, Jen Psaki, Astead Herndon.
But we're also going to have some fun, even though these days fun and politics seems like an oxymoron. But we'll do that thanks to some of my friends like Samantha Bee,
Roy Wood Jr., and Charlemagne the God. We're going to take some viewer questions as well. I mean,
isn't that what democracy is all about? Power to the podcast for the people. So whether you're
obsessed with the news or just trying to figure out what's going on, this season of Next Question is for you. Check out our new season of Next Question
with me, Katie Couric, on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
I'm Dr. Laurie Santos, and to welcome the new year, my podcast, The Happiness Lab,
is releasing a series of happiness how-to guides to help you in 2025.
I'll distill the wisdom of world-class experts into easy-to-digest, actionable tips.
It's about never feeling good enough.
I feel like I'm always failing.
You'll learn how to handle relationships, how to be inspiring, and how to find your purpose.
We make it this big pie-in-the-sky thing, and then of course we're all frustrated because no one knows how to get there.
Struggling with tough emotions?
We have a how-to guide.
Worried that you're not enough?
We got you.
Self-obsessed and want to get over yourself?
There's a guide for that too.
The ability to approach somebody and make them experience desire for you in minutes or even hours is a rare and rather unnecessary skill, historically speaking.
The Happiness Lab's How To Season starts January 1st.
Listen on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

follow-up, Louisa is on the phone and she's getting ghosted by a guy named Russ. So we're
about to call him, see if he'll tell us why he's ghosting her after they went on a date
and maybe get her another one. But first, Louisa, why don't you get everybody up to
speed on your situation? Sure. So I finally met up with a great guy after talking to him for a while.
He has like big dog dad energy, which we love to see.
He had a great date.
We did kiss at the end.
This man is now not texting me back.
And a dog did pee on his shoe.
If you missed that part, I am sorry about that. The dog did pee on his shoe if you missed that part i am sorry about that
and also i do have a work nemesis that i may have ranted about a little bit
okay i think that's where we're at so is either the dog pee or are you ranting about the work
person that could be the things that you're thinking them as an option right right could
be that well here we go are you ready for us to call him oh my gosh yes that. Well, here we go. Are you ready for us to call in?
Oh my gosh, yes. I guess so.
Okay, here we go.
This is Russ.
Russ, hey, how are you? My name is Jubal. I'm calling from a radio show. It's called The Jubal Show.
Hi, Russ. Hi. Oh, oh. The whole show is here, Russ. My name is Russ. Russ, hey, how are you? My name is Jubal. I'm calling from a radio show. It's called The Jubal Show. Hi, Russ.
Hi.
Oh.
The whole show is here, Russ.
My name is Nina.
Hi, and I'm Victoria.
Yeah.
Hi.
How are you?
Hi.
Hi.
I've never been on the radio before.
I'm okay.
I'm okay.
Yeah.
Hi.
What can I do for you?
Well, we're calling you today because we do a segment on the show and it's called the
first date follow up.
What that is, is where you go on a date with somebody and you end up ghosting them.
That person can ask us to get you on the phone and ask why you're ghosting.
And we got an email about you from somebody.
Oh my gosh.
I think I know where this is going.
Okay.
You want to take a shot at it and see if you can guess who it is?
Uh, it's Louisa Luisa yes it is Luisa
she asked us to call you because you won't get back to her and she really liked you and thought
your day went well and she's wondering why you're ghosting oh okay uh I mean look so here's the deal
guys okay Luisa is awesome she is so cool she's really on it she's gorgeous she's hot she's really hot
and she's really funny and has so much personality and you know for a first date she brought so much
awesome personality and I feel like I really got to know her in our time um honestly the reason why
I haven't been contacting her really is it's honestly nothing to do with her me it's I'm a
I'm a really esoteric kind of person like I'm really in touch with like the energy that's going
on in my world and like the stars and astronomy and things and I I just feel like right now I feel
like I am extremely bad luck that sounds like such a weird thing to say as a reason why to not do this. All this month, crazy things have been happening to me. Uh, and, and they continue to happen on
the date as well. I don't know if she told you this or anything, but right before I got there,
there was this dog, right? And the dog, I went to go down and, you know, pet the dog. And then
right as she walked up to me, I stood up to greet her and the dog on my phone yeah sorry oh okay okay okay well there's some other things that you know
she may have not realized that happened on the date that they'd be like oh my god i can't i can't
you know do anything right so after the dog peed on me i was cleaning up in the bathroom and on the
way back in i opened the door and swing and it hit the server in the face and dropped the tray of stuff and i'm like oh my god
i just smashed this guy in the face and and i was like oh my god so i i helped the guy up you know
and and continued on i got back down and we're sitting down and i realized we're about to get
that down and i realized that an ex of mine was also there at
the same coffee shop with i don't know if it was a friend or a date or something but i was like oh
my god this is not happening so i said let's let's just go sit behind like a plant like in this like
corner area which kind of feels like a weird thing to say i'm like let's go sit here in the corner
where no one can see us but i was like all right let, let's do it. So we did it. And, you know, I said, oh, we can just know each other.
I'm focused on each other.
And then to top it off, I lost my phone.
So I realized while we're in the middle of conversation,
I feel my right pocket is empty.
And I'm like, where the F is my phone?
And I'm like, in my mind, while maintaining a conversation,
being like, how do I get up and look for the phone
without looking like a crazy person
and completely just nose diving this date.
So I kept like getting up and kind of looking around while also trying to
have a conversation.
I didn't want to just be like,
Oh,
I lost my phone.
So I ended up not finding my phone,
but we just left the coffee shop and I didn't say anything because I didn't
want to make a whole thing out of it.
I had to go back the next day and someone luckily found it and turned it in
and she didn't know any of this.
I didn't tell her any of this because I was like, this is not too much to tell this person on the first day.
What a nightmare.
I know.
I had like a three-act tragedy going on.
Meanwhile, like I was trying to be on this date with her.
So I don't think she knew about most of that stuff going on.
I don't think I let on much.
But just to be honest with you, big point being, I really
did like Louisa. I really, really
did. I think she's really
such a cool person and I'm definitely
very attracted to her, but
I just feel like right now, I need to
figure myself out a little bit and get myself
kind of back together and let things
go smoothly for a bit before I'm like
ready for release.
Okay, Russell, thank you for telling us and being honest with us. I appreciate that. go smoothly for a bit before I'm like ready for really diving into something.
Okay, Russ, well thank you for telling us and being honest with us. I appreciate that.
Yeah. I'm sure
Louisa probably does too because she's actually
on the phone listening and has been
listening this whole time. Oh my god.
Oh my god.
I should have suspected that. I should have
known. Oh my god.
Okay, Russ, I am so serious right now.
This is, like, not part of your, like, perceived bad luck.
This is a good thing.
We're going to get through this.
But, like, I'm not going to lie to you.
I am dead right now.
This is, like, one of the funniest things I've ever heard, like, in retrospect.
Because this is, like, a lot a lot of like pieces are coming together
for me that i did not know were part of a puzzle at all so wow just wow i i i hope i hope you could
appreciate the uh the mental gymnastics i was doing while we were while we were sitting together
on that date but uh yeah so i i'm glad you get a chuckle out of that.
In the moment, it was not funny, but in hindsight, it is absurd.
I mean, I'm going to be so real with you. Like now that you've said all of this, like I 1000% remember in the cafe, you doing some kind of like millennial Macarena, like just padding your pockets a little bit.
And I'm like, so like there's a little bit of it, like for the most part,
you were pretty slick though. Like for the most part,
I did not know your soul had left your body.
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you so much. Thank you.
I did do theater in high school. I appreciate the compliment.
Sounds so well matched.
You guys really do sound like you should go out again.
Russ, would you like to go out with Louisa again one more time?
We'll pay for it.
I mean, listen, here's the thing.
I really am, like, embarrassed by this.
Like, I know I'm glad.
Like, I appreciate, like, that she's willing to, like, take it in stride.
I am generally a really, like, confident, like easy-going kind of person.
This has been a very...
It's not the worst-case scenario,
which has kind of been why I was like...
Russ, you should just say yes.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'll just say yes.
I don't know why I'd say yes.
Well, congratulations, Lisa.
You got it on your date.
Oh, my gosh. Honestly,
was that Nina? Like, what a girl's girl to bully this man.
I really appreciate you.
