First date follow-up.

Selina is on the phone today for a first date follow-up,
and she's getting ghosted by a dude named Justin.
So in a few minutes, we'll call him
and see if he'll tell us why he's ghosting her
and maybe get her a second date.
But first, Selena, how long has it been since you talked to Justin?
10 days. 10 whole days, do you believe it?
I can't believe it.
I know.
She doesn't sound very nice, so I don't understand.
And it feels like it's meant to be, right?
Selena and Justin, what a coincidence.
Right?
We could be the couple that makes it.
I was going to say they didn't make it.
I know, but she could.
Have you tried to get a hold of Justin?
Yeah, I sent him a text, you know, and he did not respond to it.
I mean, it wasn't anything bad.
It was just casual.
I said, hey, hope you're not.
in a lavender donut coma text, nothing.
And then I told him I can't wait to see him again and still nothing.
I guess I don't understand the lavender donut part of that.
I'm going to say that's an inside joke.
That's just an inside joke.
Okay.
I was curious.
So what did you guys do on your date?
Okay, so we met at a food truck festival, which is already cute, right?
Yeah.
Right?
Yeah.
duplicate.
I was wearing, I was wearing my, I'm fun and chill, but also hot outfit.
And he was like in a Patagonia dad gear, very, I hike for fun energy.
Okay.
You profiled him quick.
Uh-huh.
Yeah, yeah.
And we tried everything, tacos, dumplings, these insane garlic noodles, I still dream about them.
And we ended the night sharing a lavender donut under fairy lights.
Oh.
Oh.
Yeah.
Mm-hmm.
And he laughed at all my jokes.
He said I had the best energy he's been around in months.
So, yeah, obviously I thought we were viving hard.
Yeah.
So did you guys kiss or anything?
Yeah, yeah.
At the end of the night, like, you know, well, actually what happened was like I was wearing
like really strong perfume and he started sneezing a lot and I asked if he was allergic
and he goes, no, no, but he started breathing like a pug and a sauna and I was like, oh, shoot.
And then I was like, maybe I gave him a mild asthma attack.
Like, I don't know.
Yeah, but we still kissed goodbye and he didn't die.
So I figured me were cool.
The pugging the sauna thing is throwing me.
Girl, you do have good energy.
You're fun.
Okay.
Yeah, I am fun.
Yeah.
Why do you think he's ghosting you?
I really don't know.
I mean, I was thinking that, you know, the whole.
like, you know, maybe was like really actually allergic
and he didn't want to say anything
and he's maybe in a coma right now, you know?
We don't know.
All right.
Well, let's figure it out for you.
We'll play a song, come back and then call him
and see if he'll tell us why he's ghosting you
and maybe get to a second date, okay?
Yeah.
Selina is on the phone and she's getting ghosted
by a guy named Justin, so we're going to call him in just a second
and see if he'll tell us why he's ghosting her
and maybe get her a second date.
But real quick, Selena, why don't you break?
down your date again and why you think you're getting ghosted.
Yeah, I had the most dreamy date, you know, we went to a food truck festival, we ate a lot
of stuff, you know, we ended the night with a dreamy kiss, and I think he might just be ghosting
me because of the perfume I was wearing, maybe it was too much, you know, and he didn't want
to say anything about that.
I don't know, but like, I feel like we had a great date.
But he was starting to smell, what was it, breathe like a pug?
A pug in his sauna.
Yeah, yeah.
Pug and Asana.
All right.
Well, are you ready for us to call the Pug and see how he's doing?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Okay.
Here we go.
I'm doing.
Who's calling?
This is the Jubal show.
It's a radio show.
Justin, my name is Nina. Hi, I'm Victoria.
What's going on, guys? Not much. Have you ever listened to the show before?
I've heard of it, but I haven't listened to it before.
Okay. Guess what, Justin, you're on the show today because we got an email about you.
Okay. So we do a segment that's called the first date follow-up. What that is, is if you go on a date with someone and you ghost them, they can email us.
to call you and ask why you're ghosting
and you're ghosting somebody
so they emailed us about you.
Yeah, this is about
Selena, right?
Yes, it is about Selena.
Look, she's, well, I had a time
but there was just
like, there was just
something that happened
that I couldn't shake.
Okay.
So that's all it was about.
Do you have time to tell us
what that thing is that you couldn't shake?
Yeah.
She brought a zip off
bag and in the Ziploc bag was just, like, a fistful of her hair.
What?
Wait, what?
Yeah.
We were having this, like, picnic and, you know, she pulls out this bag, like, casually.
And I thought she was bringing out snacks.
Nope, it was her hair.
Her hair.
Did you ask her why she had her hair?
I think I was just taking it.
all in. I was just like
oh
okay
there's got to be a air explanation
to this and that's her hair
and
like it was as if she was just like taking out like
oh yeah like here's the Tuesday pile of hair
oh interesting
every day had its own pile
I asked and
I guess she's tracking
her hair scientifically
I don't know what that means
So many questions.
She didn't really ask that many questions, but she said she loses a certain amount of hair every day.
And so she collects it and she's just checking it for vitamins, whatever that means.
Interesting.
She literally said that, well, she told me the amount of her she loses her day.
And since it was more humid, she was like inhuman, inhuman weather, I lose, you know, 8, 140 strands a day.
And she brought a bag over here.
Who knows that?
Okay, first of all, it's not weird. It's data.
Hey, Justin, that's Selena. She's on the phone and wants to talk to you.
Hi, do you have something against science or something? I had no idea how judgmental you are.
Selena, why are you on the call? Why might be ambushed for this? This is ridiculous.
I just wanted to know why you were ghosting me, and I can't believe this is your reason. Okay?
on a hair growth journey, if you can't handle my routine, you don't deserve the results.
Wow.
Okay.
I don't have to be on the hair growth journey with you.
I do not have to be on the hair growth journey.
Like, why, like a Ziploc bag of your hair, that's like, that's a boundaries thing.
It's not, that's not normal or comfortable for another person you're around to you pulling out
socks of your hair.
Like, I don't get, you could have done it like a little more discreet.
I don't care what you do in private.
I have nothing against science,
but I don't want to be looking at your science
when we're having a picnic.
Listen, there is nothing wrong with what I am doing.
I'm just tracking my shedding.
It's responsible.
It's called file feedback, okay?
All right?
It's called the range, girl.
It's called the range.
You're the range.
That's a little harsh.
I'm curious.
You wore ankle socks with slides.
So maybe let's
not act like you're the pinnacle of
agility.
All right, it was a style
choice. It wasn't like, at least
I wasn't wearing slippers made hair
on my feet.
Oh, that's not that much better.
Okay, okay. Oh, so that was a
style choice. I guess ghosting
was a style choice too,
apparently.
I was I supposed to handle a Ziploc
baggy of hair. I mean, you kissed her,
though. I mean, it's supportive.
Yeah, but that's not something you do on the first aid.
I don't have to know about all your business and science.
I don't need to know about anything more.
Your body is working at that point when we're just trying to enjoy a picnic.
Well, I have to keep it with me to track my hairs as they fall.
Otherwise, it wouldn't be very scientific.
That's a good point.
Good point.
Yeah, but I think science could be paused for an hour during a picnic.
I can't believe this, Justin.
We had such a great time, and you're going to let it go over this?
I'm going to have luscious hair, and you're going to be bald.
All right.
Justin, would you like another date with Selena will pay for it?
No, I think I'm good.
I'm going to be living in fear of being sorted in the spreadsheet.
You'd be in the low testosterone, zero-grit column.
And you'd be in the cholesterol
hair in a villain origin story column.
Wow.
