So we're going to see if we can find out why and maybe get him another date if he still wants one in a second. But first, let's find out about the date. Aaron, how long has it been since you heard from Monica? Hey, guys. I love the show, by the way. I love you, Aaron.

It's been four days. Four days. Okay. You sure you're getting ghosted? I think so at this point. I mean, here's the thing. I felt like the date went great uh we met on bumble i mean like everyone that's kind of the only way you can

meet nowadays um but she is beautiful you know she's kind of got like this i don't know this real like kid you know youthful energy to her you know so we were talking about like disney movies you know just like i'm a big kid at heart too i i love cartoons i love i love all that okay and uh we went out for sushi and she was laughing she seemed to be having a good time um i i don't know i i really don't know i i thought it went well um i was a gentleman didn't try to kiss nothing so I yeah I really would I would love to possibly have a second date if she is interested and tell us about this I know what happened sushi was good sushi was good huge seafood fan but you know I thought it would be something kind of a little more interesting but I

was still pretty impressed and um having some sake with it definitely helps i'll say that so wait you're the guy that's like let's go to sushi and then gets california rolls and then everything that's cooked like shrimp tempura hey man what's wrong with that i knew that let me just go to a different restaurant i don't know or maybe you just really like california rolls i sorry. I didn't mean to clown you right now. I just found that funny. No, you're good. I mean, it was just fine. I'm not a big seafood guy, I guess.

Okay. Okay. Is Monica a seafood gal? Was she enjoying the sushi? She seemed to. Yeah, she seemed to be really into it. And I don't know. I thought it might be something a little better than just taking her out for, you know, beers and burgers or something, you know? Sure. Did you feel like she was flirting with you?

Yeah. Yeah, I really did. And like I said, even when we were like chatting, you know, we seem to have a lot in common. We seem like both, you know, I said the kids at heart. You know, I'm someone who I love to, to you know to make my date laugh and she definitely seemed to be clicking with my humor so i hope there can be a second one can i ask you said you were a gentleman and that you didn't try to kiss or anything now granted y'all met on bumble not maybe that's more of like a tinder thing but could that have been what she was looking for she wanted more of the because bumbles when the

woman reaches out to the man after that they after they match yeah something like maybe she wanted more of a hookup i i don't think so um i'll be honest that's not really what i'm looking for i mean again she's she's very beautiful that's not that i'm not attracted to her but i am kind of more in the market um you know for something more long term okay um but i didn't get that vibe either i mean i didn't i didn't feel like she was disappointed and i didn't make the move and there is there other than i mean is there anything else you can think of that might be the reason you're getting ghosted i don't know maybe maybe i wasn't talking enough or something i i mean that's kind of the only thing i can think of but she generally did she seemed to be laughing she seemed to be

having some fun um seemed to be smiling a lot so yeah i really i don't know if you say you weren't talking enough did you mean you just sat there and looked at her while she ate sushi and tried to tell you things? Because you know what? That might do it for me, too. Because then I'd be tired. You have to work really hard. I wouldn't say that. Here's the thing is that, you know, she was telling me about her childhood, family.

And, you know, she's kind of been kicking around the ideas of going back to school and stuff like that. And I generally enjoyed listening to her and listening to what her plans were. So, OK, that's cool. All right. Well, we'll see if we can figure it out for you. We'll play a song, come back and then call her and see if she'll tell us why she's ghosting you and maybe get you another day if you still want one. OK, sounds great. All right. We'll play a song, come back, get your first day follow up next. We're so done with New Year, New You.

This year, it's more you on Bumble. More of you shamelessly sending playlists, especially that one filled with show tunes. More of you finding Gemini's because you know you always like them. More of you dating with intention because you know what you want. And you know what? We love that for you. Someone else will will too. Be more you this year and find them on Bumble. Hey, everyone.

So we're about to call her and see if she'll tell us why she's ghosting him and maybe get him another date. But before we do that, why don't you catch everybody up? Aaron, what's the situation with Monica and the ghosting? Yes, we met on Bumble. We went out for sushi. I thought at least it went really well, but I haven't heard anything in the past few days. And I'm really hoping that I can possibly get a second date.

Okay. Maybe, you know, go somewhere where you like the food instead of taking her to sushi where you don't really like seafood. I'm sorry. Maybe that's the reason, you know. That's kind of flaggy to me. Yeah. No offense. It just, it kind of is.

So maybe if that's it, then this is savable then. Yeah. We'll see, Erin. We're about to call her. You ready? Let's do it. All right, here we go. Hello?

Hi, may I speak to Monica, please? This is she. Monica, how are you? My name is Jubal. I host a radio show. It's called The Jubal Show. Yeah, and the whole show is here, too, Monica. My name's Nina.

And mine's Victoria. Wow, hi. Hi. Hi. Is this real? Yes. Do you listen to the show? Yeah, I do. Yeah.

Sweet. Okay, cool. How would you like to be on it? Well, it depends on what for. Let's say you were on it for the To Catch a Cheater segment. Would you want to be on it for that? No. Okay.

What about a first date follow-up? You know, where you go on a date with someone and then you end up ghosting them and we try to find out why? Oh, um, um, sure. Okay, cool. It works perfectly then because that's what this is. Wow. Okay. Do you know who you're ghosting, Monica?

Um, I have a feeling. Is it Aaron? Yes. Ooh. Are you ghosting Aaron? Because it's only been a couple days, but he's pretty sure you're ghosting him. I'm not purposely ghosting him, but I guess it has been sort of happening, yes. Why?

Okay. Well, we were on a date, and he was really nice and everything, but on the date, he brought a rubber fish toy. A what? Like a rubber fish, like the kind of like a kid would play with, like in a bathtub. He called it Flippy. Fun. My nephew's got some of those.

What? Okay. He named it Flippy. Yeah. Yeah. He was he named it Flippy. Yeah, yeah. It was like, I don't know. He introduced Flippy in the beginning and, like, put it on the bar next to his beer. And I thought it was just, like, him being silly at first.

Like, oh, he's playful. Okay, you know, we're at sushi. Like, he's going to bring this, like, rubber fish, I guess. It was a weird choice but whatever uh but he like he just kept referencing flippy and like talking to flippy throughout the evening and like yeah i didn't like i didn't want to be mean but um or like call him out if it was like it was like a was flippy getting stressed out watching everybody eat its friends yeah i mean that's kind of a weird place to take a fish. It was just kind of weird.

I don't know. It was just a little weird and maybe uncomfortable. So, yeah, I guess that's the thing. Did it look like he brings Flippy with him everywhere? That's what I would gather. Yeah, like it was like his, like, pal. That's really nice of you to just kind of understand that some people have, like, nerves anxiety and maybe flippy's his friend i don't know how i would handle that actually that's a really interesting situation monica yeah it was i don't know it was like you know playful but maybe

not exactly you know my vibe so i was just like maybe maybe you know i don't know it was also weird did like the at the end of the date did like the three guys hug it out together or did you get a separate hug from flippy it did feel like he was like a third wheel like he was like oh wow okay outside of flippy monica how was the date outside of that it was fun outside of thatlippy, Monica, how was the date? Outside of that, it was fun. Outside of that, it was like, you know, I think our personalities match. We're playful. Like, we're both kind of like dorky in a fun way, you know. So, I think outside of that, it was, you know, fun.

It was just the toy. Okay. Well, thank you for telling us and being honest with us. Yeah. This is going crazy. I'll be honest with you now, too. Aaron is on the phone. He's been listening this whole time.

I don't know if Flippy is with him, but he does want to talk to you. Oh, wow. Is Flippy there? Okay. No, Flippy is not here. He had a doctor's appointment. I'm kidding. I'm kidding.

Hi, Aaron. Listen, I'm sorry. I sometimes, ask my friends, I sometimes have a weird sense of humor. And I know that you were telling me that you, you know, you love to talk to your cats a lot. And so I just, I don't have any pets. It was dumb. I thought it would just be kind of like a fun little icebreaker.

I didn't mean for it to be that weird. That's actually pretty cute. I do not bring Flippy with me or sleep with him or anything like that. Well, I hope you're not sleeping with Flippy if you're trying to date other people. Trying to date other people trying to date monica okay i do talk to my cats but i did tell on my head you know

i thought we were alive you know i don't know yes it's true but hey i mean listen cats are great listeners nothing Nothing wrong. Kind of the same thing. Again, it was just kind of meant as a silly, dumb joke, minus an icebreaker. I really did have a great time, though. So if you are up to it, and I promise Flippy will be in no way coming to the date, maybe we could try again. Monica, would you like to go out with aaron again we'll

pay for it oh that's nice um yeah i mean yeah as long as there's no like stuffed animals either like nothing you know just us and then i'd be down i can't believe you gotta say that but that's kind of cool yeah no i mean uh, Flippy said he's already starting to see someone else. Oh, boy. Just let me know when you like the odd again. Okay, yeah.

Well, I'm glad we got that out of the way because I did like you. Oh, yeah. Time. So you got flippy blocked.
