Powered by the Advocates Injury Attorneys. Online at Advocateslaw.com. Sophie is on the phone today for a first day of follow-up, and she's getting ghosted by a guy named Chris. few minutes. We're going to call him and see if it tells us why he's ghosting her and maybe get her another date. But first, Sophie, how are you? Hi. I'm good, all things considered. Yeah. How long has it been since you heard from Chris?

It's been about two weeks now. So a good chunk of time, honestly. Have you been trying to get a hold of him? Um, I was, but then I didn't want to seem crazy. So I kind of, I kind of tapered off. And now I'm texting you guys. They're calling you guys. Okay, great. Well, let's talk about it. How did you meet Chris? Like, how was your date? So everything was really great. I mean, he, the only weird thing is he is best friends with my ex.

And we matched on Hinge. And I kind of was like, and I saw him and I've always thought he was really cute and a nice guy. But, you know, I ended up swiping on him just to like see it's like a social experiment. We ended up matching. So, yeah. And I was like, we were like, ha, ha, this is so weird. But we really hit it off. And we ended up moving off of Hinge and, you know, texting phone calls.

and then about two weeks ago we actually went on a first date okay and he's your friend's best friend is that was he or his exes your exes best friend yeah so you knew him before then while you were with your ex i knew who he was yeah i'd known him for a bit like we'd always been friendly and it was never it was like he was just you know my ex's good friend and so i saw him quite a bit but it was never anything romantic did you guys talk about that before you decided to go on a date yeah we definitely like you know, talked about the elephant in the room and we were like, is this really weird? Is this like messed up? And we were like, no, we're adults. Like, we can, we can do this. Why don't we go on a date and see if it is really weird? So that's what we decided to do. Um, well, how did it go? It was honestly, like, one of the best first days I've ever had. Um, we went to this arcade and we were playing games and we got wings and shots and I just like felt like a kid again. And I mean, not. and I was drinking shots as a kid, but, you know.

Right, right, right. Squeeze its first shot. Got it. Yeah, exactly. Sugar, you know, was a drug at that time. But, yeah, I mean, and then we kissed at the end of the night and was actually really hot. And, um, but then he was like, I don't know. I just felt really weird about Kyle.

That's my act. I'm going to, I'm going to call him and just like let him know. And I was like, I was kind of resistant, honestly. I was like, I don't think you need to do that. But go ahead. Like, go for it. and he was like, okay, I'm going to. And I guess, you know, something must have happened in that conversation because everything

was great. And then he said he was going to call Kyle and has not responded to my text. My calls has completely ghosted me. Anything else you can think of other than your ex's best friends with him? I mean, I think that's a pretty big thing. So I don't know. I don't think anything else happened. Like, it was a really great date.

So something must have happened in that conversation and it makes me sick to my stomach. Well, how would that conversation even? go. Like, I don't even know how I would feel if, like, my friend came to me was like, hey, I'm dating your ex. Is that okay? How would you handle that? Doble? Oh, I'd be fine with it. But then again, that's just how I am. I'd be like, yeah, cool, whatever. You know, unless it was an ex who was like, dude, like, good luck. Oh, shoot. On speed. Sophie, do you got something to tell us about your last relationship? No, I really don't. Yeah, I'm trying to think. Like, it wasn't a great breakup. It was fairly

amicable and it was a while ago, like, you know, I don't really have any hard feelings towards them. Like, it's, yeah. Okay. Well, we'll see if we can figure it out for you. A play a song, come back, and then call him and see if they'll tell us why he's ghosting you and maybe get you another date, right? Okay. That sounds great. Thanks, guys. Yep. Play a song, come back, get your first day follow up next. A foot washed up a shoe with some bones in it. They had no idea who it was. Most everything was burned up pretty good from the fire that not a whole lot was salvageable. These are the coldest of cold cases, but everything is about to change. Every case that is a cold case that has DNA. Right now in a backlog will be identified in our

lifetime. A small lab in Texas is cracking the code on DNA. Using new scientific tools, they're finding clues in evidence so tiny you might just miss it. He never thought he was going to get caught, and I just looked at my computer screen. I was just like, ah, gotcha. On America's Crime Lab, we'll learn about victims and survivors, and you'll meet the team behind the scenes at Othrum, the Houston Lab that takes on the most hopeless cases to finally solve the unsolvable.

Who cares about truth when the lives more entertaining. Hey, everybody. I'm Angela Rye, co-host of Native Lamb Pot with Tiffany Cross and Andrew Gillum, through the lens of politics and culture, we talk with you every week to make sense of this madness. I've been telling Angela, I don't even know how to fight back right now, so what I'm focused on is just looking out for ourselves. That's the truth. We're having the same

debates that American households are having all over the country. Rest is certainly a form of self-care. But if you are watching your full neighbors starve, not be able to pay bills, your rest is selfish. But the thing is, Angela, this is not. the mess we create it. So I do understand black folks feeling like, you know what, y'all got it. We're like family, but we disagree all the time. And we love when our listeners chime in. What would happen if we built our own little Wakandan communities in the rural South? Tiffany, do not run to know rural South. I don't know what's your own. What our audience is asking is, okay, fine, you want me to stop resting. What specifically

are you asking me to do? Stay informed and take actions. Listen to Nativeland Pod on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Welcome home, yeah. Right in the middle of today's first day, follow up if you're just joining us. Sophie is on the phone and she's getting ghosted by a guy named Chris. So in a second, 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, Sophie, why don't you refresh our memory on your date with Chris? Yeah, I mean, it was a really great date because it was really fun, really hot.

but um he is i mean he is my you know ex's best friend so he's like i'm just going to call and give him a heads up because he's my friend and after that i guess i've just not heard from him in two weeks so something must have happened in that conversation yeah yeah all right probably told him not to see you right yeah well let's see are you ready for us to call him yes but i'm also so scared okay here we go Hello? Hi, man, speak to Chris, please. This is Jubel.

Chris, what's up? How are you? This is Jubal. I'm from a radio show called The Jubel Show. Yeah, hi, Chris. I'm Nina also on the show. Hi, and I'm Victoria. Okay, we're in a radio group chat or something?

Yeah, pretty much. Yeah. Have you ever listened to the show before? Yeah, I have. Well, have you ever heard a first-day follow-up before? Yeah, I was wondering why you're calling me, because I'm like, I've heard the show, but I didn't fill out any, like, you know, contest anything. Somebody emailed us about you because the first-day follow-up is a segment where if you go out

on a date with somebody, and then you end up ghosting them, they can email us to get you on the phone and ask why you're ghosting them, and we got an email about you. Do you know who would be from? I'm probably, yeah. Who? It's probably Sophie, right? It is Sophie. You want to tell us why you're ghosting her?

I mean, well, I don't know what she told you, but I mean, we went out, but she's, we matched up online and long story short, she dated my best friend for quite some time and they broke up. I wouldn't want somebody going out, one of my buddies going out with my ex, right? But I thought, okay, well, you know, Kyle's not like me. Kyle's probably cool with it. So we went out and it was, everything was great. But just at the end of the night, I just, you know, felt like, I really need to say something to Kyle just to make sure. So I called him up and I know what I thought. Kyle was like, yeah, go ahead.

Do whatever you want. Okay. Help yourself. He seemed to not have a problem with it. But he didn't tell me that our other buddy, Robbie. ran into Sophie recently and took her home that night. Wait. So now, like, I'm just, you know, that's, that's a little too much.

Like, I know Kyle's cool and I can deal with that. But if she's, like, if she's trying to work her way through her crew to get back to Kyle, I don't know what's going on. So I just, I just kind of stepped back. Okay. Did you think to ask her about that or are you just like, nah, I'm out? No, just at that point, I'm like, look, I don't know. I don't even know what the situation was.

I'm not sure if she's, like, purposely trying to get with Kyle's buddies or, or what the deal is. But I'm just like, now that's two of my friends there she's been with. I'm, I just, I just back now. Okay. Well, thank you for being honest with us. And she's also been with us. Actually, this whole time, she's on the phone listening and wants to talk to you. Oh, well, you didn't tell me that.

Sorry about that. I forgot about that part. Sophie? Yeah. what the hell like that's not that's not true at all that's yeah you could have asked me because I would have told you right that in there that's a complete lie that's not that's not true you didn't go home with Robbie the other night I mean why why would Kyle lie why would Robbie lie I mean we we we know each other since we were kids they're not going to lie to me

I yeah well I think Kyle this is just showing how manipulative and controlling Kyle can be because yeah Robbie did take me home and was like right after the breakup I would definitely a mess like I was like crying I was wasted Robbie was at the same bar as me and yeah he did take me home to my own house we didn't do anything he just he gave me a ride because I should not have been driving in that date so like that was yeah was that's a complete line that really kind of pisses me off honestly I think you should have mentioned that if you didn't like saying you took a girl home is very different than oh I took a guy I dropped her to her house and dropped her off

he meant to say it like that he 100% meant to say it like that i know kyle and like that is that's just really frustrating so like he would say that knowing what the truth was but was just trying to plant that's actually messed up yeah it's very easy to twist the words there but sophy are you sure did like robbie come in your house like was there anything no did he make any moves on you or was it just completely innocent it was come call robbie right now and ask him like yeah nothing happen. So I'm sure that when Robbie told Kyle

that he took you home, Kyle just naturally assumed that Robbie's a player. He's a dog. That's what he does. He chases honeies like it's his job. Right. Like we just assume that if Robbie's with a girl, he's gone there, right? That's how he is

has been since we were kids. So Kyle might have actually thought something hooked up, but I'm not going to say that if Kyle knew other Why is he wouldn't still try to maybe make it seem that way? That is kind of how it can be a real jerk like that sometimes. I'm not going to argue. I mean, yeah, there you go.

I was going to say, wow, you are really in Kyle's corner here. Why don't you, too, Dave? Like, you're very much, like, defending him. I, yeah. Of course I'm going to defending. We've been boys since school bus riding days. I'm going to defending. Of course, but you could have called me.

You could have called me or texted me, been like, hey, I heard this. And I would have immediately. told you. I guess now I'm really hurt that you just sort of assumed the worst of me. Like, I'm like trying to get through the friend group. I almost didn't even, you know, swipe right on you. Like, I almost, you know, for

like, I, because I didn't want to have that impression, now at this point, I'm just like very upset and I don't know how I'm giving you a second chance and I thought you were different. We both know Robbie kind of is like, yeah, I took her home and sort of like let's that sort of innuendo sit there. And I think kind of

knows that too so I think the two kind of work to his advantage just sort of why do you and be a little manipulative about that and yeah I mean we all know Robbie's like oh yeah it's a curho and we're like ha ha okay like we made like a drinking game about it at one point I think so

I was gonna say you you know as well as I do that when Robbie is with a girl that that's pretty much what happens that's how it rolls so I mean like it sounds like you're really into Robbie because it sounds like you know you couldn't do anything except sleep with him

because he's just such a, he's just so irresistible for him. Yeah, I mean, I don't even know how to respond to that. Honestly, I'm not, I mean, whatever. I mean, that's fine. Maybe I will hook up with Robbie. He's probably a better kisser than you were anyway.

Oh, wow. Okay. Well, Chris, would you like to go with Sophie on another day? We'll pay for it. No, I don't think so. I don't think so at all. Yeah, I, yeah, I'm not, I'm not chad 80s for this one. so um at least you found out why you're getting ghosted yeah hey closure is a i want to close her either way

so i'm not mad about that maybe just stay away from that group yeah yeah i think uh i'm done all right well make sure to give you know Robbie another kiss for me away i never kissed him so cool bye jubble's first date follow-up hey guys it's a z fud you may know me as a gold medalist You may know me as an NCAA national champion.
