I can't think of a better way to

meet somebody than playing cornhole and eating processed meats. Okay. You know what I mean? No. Okay. I don't think anybody does right now. This is a first date follow-up, and Colleen is on the phone because she's not getting a call back from a dude named Steven, and I guess Colleen met him at a barbecue.

Oh. You know, playing some cornhole, eating some hot dogs. Processed meat. I was going to say hot dogs. You know, like the chicken and the pork, the ones that have like all the nasty stuff, not the whole beef. Yes. And that's where Colleen met the dude she wants to call today. What's up, Colleen?

How are you? Hi. I'm doing good. And I just want to say that I eat processed fake meat. So there you go. So you're a vegetarian? Yes. Oh, all right. Oh, no. I'm processed fake meat. So there you go. So you're a vegetarian? Yes. Oh, all right.

I'm sorry. So you met this dude at a barbecue, and were they actually eating real meat there, and how did you stay there? He was not eating the actual meat as well. So that was something I liked. A fellow vegetarian? Yes.

Oh, wow. Okay, well, that's probably how you guys connected then. It was everybody else was over by the grill, and you two were in the corner just like, look at these idiots. Yeah. Exactly. They're going to die of cancer from all those antibiotics. We're so much better than them. You want to go do some yoga?

Let's go do some yoga right now. Let's eat the grass. All right, so you met this guy. His name's Steven, right? Mm-hmm. Yeah, it was at my brother's barbecue. Oh, your brother's barbecue the grass. All right. So you met this guy. His name's Steven, right? Mm-hmm. While you were at it. Yeah, it was at my brother's barbecue. Oh, your brother's barbecue.

Okay. Mm-hmm. And tell us about how you met him. Well, he was standing over there, and I noticed his burger looked a little weird like mine. Mm-hmm. And I just thought he was cute and went over and just pointed out that we had the same weird burgers together. That's an interesting opening line for a pickup line. Like, hey, you got a weird burger.

I got a weird burger. Let's mash them together. You know, I just go for it. Why not? I just figured I should ask him out. So I did. Okay. How'd that go?

So did he, he agreed? Mm-hmm. Yeah. Okay. How'd that go? So did he, he agreed? Mm-hmm. Yeah. Okay. Where did you guys go for your date? Just like a local bar, like a little pub a couple blocks away for happy hour. All right. And I thought it went really well.

Like we just kept chatting and just like he had the kindest eyes I've ever seen. And he was just so nice and considerate. Kind eyes. Have you ever dated somebody with unkind eyes? What color would that be? What are kind eyes? What do kind eyes, what does that mean? Kind eyes, like, I don't know, you look into them and you just like see someone you can trust. Oh, okay. I don't know, you look into them and you just like see someone you can trust.

Oh, okay. I don't know. Nobody cares about you. I don't know. They just look kind. Okay. So obviously you're like super into this guy, but he's not getting back to you. So is there anything you can think that maybe was a bit off about yourself or the date in general?

Maybe your eyes were unkind. Yeah. Did you ever think of that? Oh, no. I hope they're not. I've had people tell me, and I've heard it in recordings of my own voice, that I have kind of a weird laugh sometimes. Weird laugh sometimes? Is that what you said?

Yeah. Yeah, it's like a, well, I can't do it. All right. We'll see if we can make you laugh somehow yeah at some point now it's gonna be tough now this is not gonna be funny at all anytime you say you have to try to make somebody laugh so you have a weird laugh and you think that that might be the reason that he's not calling you back i mean there was one time where like i mean he was really funny and i laughed really loud. Um,

and then he gave me a, of like a look, like, what was that? What just came out of your mouth? Yeah. But I, I don't think it was enough to ruin a, a date.

Like a great time that we had, like, I hope not. Okay. So then when you guys parted ways in the evening or whenever you guys went out, how did it end? Did you guys say you're going to go out again? Yeah, he said he wanted to see me again and that he knew some really great vegetarian restaurants

and that we kissed, actually. Oh, wow. Oh, okay. Vegetarian kiss. Yeah. Hey, did you kiss with tongue? Because isn't that technically not being a vegetarian at that point? Oh, there kiss. Yeah. Hey, are you, did you kiss with tongue? Cause isn't that technically not being a vegetarian at that point? Oh, there it was.

Was that the laugh? Oh no. Yeah. All right. Well, I don't know. That didn't sound that weird. I don't know how that would be a turnoff where a guy wouldn't call you back for that. Especially if he kissed you and said he wanted to go out again.

I don't know. It was kind of deep though. It was. It was like my dad. It sounded like you were about to choke on your own. Yeah. It's fine. Just on my pride.

That's all. It sounded like you were about to choke or something. There it is again. First date follow-up. Would you guys like me to start the second part of today's first date follow-up off with a really bad joke? Sure. Okay. I do that all the time.

This one is really bad. The way I thought to intro this is really bad. Let's hear it. So be prepared. Colleen, are you on the phone? Mm-hmm. Be prepared for a horrible joke headed right your way, okay? Perfect.

Right in the middle of a first date follow-up, and if you missed the first part, Colleen is on the phone, and a dude named Steven isn't calling her back. They're both vegetarians, which is really weird, because obviously Steven has some beef. Oh, honey. I liked it. You liked it?

That was great. Okay, text in 41061. What did you think about that? I kind of hate myself for it, but that's exactly what happened. Colleen is on the phone, and she wants us to call a dude named Steven. She actually met him

at her brother's barbecue. They bonded over the fact that they had weird looking burgers because they're vegetarians and they went out for a happy hour, had a great time, even ended the night with a kiss and plans to go out later,

but he's not calling her back now and she has no idea why. The only thing that she can think of is Colleen has kind of a weird laugh sometimes. That can't be it though. I couldn't think that could possibly be it.

It was a strange laugh though. It is a weird laugh, Colleen. Yeah, people have weird laughs sometimes. That can't be it, though. I couldn't think that could possibly be it. It was a strange laugh. It is a weird laugh, Colleen. Yeah, people have weird laughs, though. Yeah? Like, she didn't judge people because of it. Yeah, Colleen, has your laugh ever ruined a date for you before? No, but it has ruined a funeral. Oh.

A funeral? Whoa. Oh, no. That's a story for another time. Yeah. All right, well, I'm going to dial this dude right now and see why he's not calling you back, okay? All right. All right.

Here we go. Hello? Hi, man. Speak to Steven, please. This is Steven. Hey, Steven. How are you? This is Jubal from The Jubal Show.

Who is this? Jubal from The Jubal Show. It, who is this? Jubal from the Jubal show. It's a radio show. Oh, um, why are you calling me? I just want to say, see how you're doing.

Can't call you and just check in once in a while? Steven? I call you every, I call you all the time. Don't I? I'm,

excuse me, I'm confused. Like, what's going on? Who, like, did I, uh,

win something? Maybe some booty. Play your'm confused. Like, what's going on? Like, did I win something? Maybe some booty. Play your cards right. Wait, what? Oh, nothing, nothing. You did not win anything. But on the phone right now is me. My name is Jewel.

Also with me is my hot ass wife, Alex Friesch. Hey. And English Evan. Good morning. Okay, hi, guys. What can I, like, why are you calling me? Sorry. I'm sorry, but what is this?

No, it's fine to ask. I mean, it's not every day you get a call from a radio show just being weird with you. I'm calling you today because we do a segment on our show called The First Date Follow-Up. That's where if you go out on a date with somebody and end up blowing them off, they can email us to get you on the phone and find out what happened. And you recently went out on a date with someone named Colleen. How do you know this? Because Colleen emailed us, told us how she met you, told us all about the date, said that even at the end of your date, you guys kissed and made plans to go out later. And

now you're not calling her back and she's really confused and she would like to know she did something wrong. Oh, um, um, okay, well, yeah, just, why don't you just tell her that I'm not interested in going out with her again? Oh. How come? Well, it just, you know, it's just not working out. Like, I just think it's better that we, uh,

you know, do our own thing. Sure, sure. Okay. But she emailed us and she wants to know why. Yeah. So, I mean, just curious, like, what the reason is. She had nice things to say about you. Yeah, she said the date went well as well. I'll tell you what she thinks. You want to know what she thinks it is?

Sure. She says the only thing she can think of is that she has kind of a weird laugh sometimes and it might have weirded you out. No, I mean, she's a nice girl. She doesn't have a weird laugh. I actually found her laugh, you know, kind of charming. It was nice. Oh, okay.

Okay, so why aren't you calling her back then? It's just, I realized this can't really go anywhere. So, you know, I figure there's really no point. Okay, gotcha. Realize that. How come? Is there a reason though? Like, what's the reason?

Um, all right. Yeah, I don't, I don't really know if I want to tell you guys the reason why. Well. That sounds bad. Yeah, is it something about her? Um, no, not specifically her. No, just like, this just can't work out.

So, you know, why waste your time and keep calling her when it can't really work? You said it can't work out. Yeah, no, it can't work out. You guys are both vegetarians, though. Yeah, you guys both. Dude, you could eat so many salads together in bed. It's hot. Kale farts.

Oh, my God. Kale fart Dutch ovens? So much fun. I mean, guys, you know, like, man, I liked her a lot, but it's just not worth getting beat up again over this. Beat up? What?

She beat you up? No, no, no, not her. Who beat you up? Oh, man. Do you have another girlfriend? No. That would explain it. Actually, her brother.

Her brother? Her brother beat you up? Yeah. For what? Oh, you know. Well, I don't know if I should get into this. I've been friends with her brother for a really long time. He's one of my best friends.

Oh, yeah, because you met her at a barbecue, her brother's barbecue. Yeah. Okay. I don't know if she told you that, but yeah, we met at her brother's barbecue. She posted a story of us out together on her Instagram when we were on our date. So after the date, I'm home, and there was a knock on the door and I opened the door and her brother was right there and he just punched me in the face. Really?

Did he say anything to you? Yeah. He only said, don't ever talk to my sister again. And then he left. So, you know, I don't, after that, I just don't think I can see her again. Wow. You don't think Coll can see her again. Wow. You don't think Colleen's worth a few punches in the face, huh? I don't want to get punched in the face again.

I can understand that. So you definitely don't want to talk to her again? I don't think I can, no. Okay, that's unfortunate because she's actually on the other line listening and wants to talk to you right now, Steven. Hi. Hi. Hi. That surprise hit you like a punch in the face, huh? No? Nothing?

Yeah. Hey, Steven. Hey, Colleen. How's it going? Well, it's not going great. I just found out my brother punched you in the face.

Yeah, yeah. So we probably shouldn't go out again. I think he made it pretty clear that he's not into this, a fan of this. This is so ridiculous. I'm a grown-up. What is he doing meddling in my life? I can make my own decision. Is he an older brother?

No. He's younger than you? Yeah, he's five years younger than me. Oh, wow. That is weird. I've never been on a date before and been punched in the face right after, so I definitely wasn't expecting that. Never?

No, never. No. I mean, did you punch him back? No. I mean, I was just so surprised. Like, you know, I didn't even know what came at me. So no, no. Right. I mean, you're bigger than him.

You could have totally taken him. Like, someone needs to put him in his place. So you want Steven to beat up your brother now, Colleen? I want to beat up my brother. That was a really good date. It was one of the best ones I've been on in a long time. And I think we should do it again.

Stephen, you want to get punched in the face again? Hey, would you like to go out with Colleen on another date? We'll pay for it. You know what? I just want to be kind in the face again? Hey, would you like to go out with Colleen on another date? We'll pay for it. You know what? I just want to be kind of direct. I know. I think after what I went through, and I've been friends with her brother forever, I don't think – I'm sorry, but I just don't want to do this again.

Steven, what if we throw in MMA training classes? Yeah. What if I call my brother and just tell him to back off? You know? That's honestly even more embarrassing than getting punched in the face. All right. Well, Stephen, thank you for your time. I'm sorry that you got punched in the face for going out with Colleen.

Probably not as sorry as I am. I'm the one who got punched in the face after all. That's a good point. Well, Colleen, I'm sorry you did not get another date with Stephen, but at least you know why now. You know what, Stephen? I'm going to call you because I want to see you again and I'm going to figure this out. I don't know.

No. Listen to me. Listen to me. We're going to go out again. You're going to go out with me. It's going to be fine. Okay. Wow.

Okay. Okay. She's getting pushed around all over the place. Wow. Okay. All right. You're just getting pushed around all over the place. He's convinced. All right. Well, good luck, you guys. Thank you.

All right. Thanks. Well, you know how you started off with a stupid joke, right? Yeah. I'm going to end it with a stupid joke. Okay. All right. What is it?

Okay, so you know how he's a vegetarian, right? Yeah. Well, he ate a knuckle sandwich. Very good. Thank you. Hey, everyone. It's Katie Couric.
