First day follow-up. It's gotten a lot of action

in the dating world since COVID started. What? Parks. Parks have gotten a lot of action. Like, you mean a park with grass and stuff? Yeah, because people weren't able to really go anywhere and do anything.

Just parks in general, going on picnics, going on walks in the park, meeting at the park. Who knows what you're doing in the park after dark? That was a rhyme, and I did that on purpose just so I could rhyme. But Aiden is on the phone for a first date follow-up today, and he wants to call a woman named Lila. And apparently they went to dinner, and then guess where after that? Where?

The park. Anyway, they went to the park. Aiden, before we get into how you met her and all that other stuff, how long has it been since you talked to Lila? It's been two weeks. Two weeks. Okay, that's a long time. And in that two weeks time, how many times have you tried to reach out to her?

I played it real cool. So two, maybe three. Okay. Yeah, it wasn't a lot because I know that can get real creepy real fast. Yeah, for sure. You don't want to be pushy. And she didn't respond at all? Not at all.

Okay, so she obviously doesn't want to talk to you. First, before we ask you why, how was the date with Lila? Obviously, you liked her a lot, but tell us about it. Yeah, man, the date was actually really cool. You know, we went to go get dinner at this real nice spot and then like we walked through the park, which is really cool because it was like the evening, the sky was real pretty. So it was a really nice night. We had a lot of fun. I really enjoyed it. It really seemed like she was too. It sounds like a really nice night. We had a lot of fun. I really enjoyed it. It really seemed like she was, too.

That sounds like a very romantic date. What did you guys do while you were there? Oh, all we did, we just talked. We got to know each other. We talked a little bit about our families, our relationship with our parents, stuff like that. A little basic stuff. I mean, I could see how going on a walk in a park

would be really enjoyable if you liked the person that you were with, you know? Although, okay, so she's not getting back to you and you spoke about family. Is your family normal? Or are they in jail or something? No, no, my family's actually really normal. I got a couple of brothers.

On the family thing, though, did you maybe overshare too much about your family? Did you maybe be like, hey, do you want to come meet my family this afternoon or this evening or tomorrow or the day after tomorrow? Or you want to meet my mom? Or I've already planned the wedding. Things like that. Did you get a little too intense about stuff, maybe? No, no, I didn't.

Especially because I'd be more worried about my family meeting any girl I brought. So I wait and wait before I push it to that point. Did she seem like she was into you? She did, so I'm a little confused. I don't want to say I'm hurt, but I'm just a little confused why I'm not hearing from her.

I think going for a walk in the park and having dinner being too romantic? Probably not. Taking a helicopter to the dinner in a different country, maybe that's too romantic. But just going for a walk in the park. That sounds like a nice date.

Well, then, what do you think went wrong? You can't think of anything? I mean, when we went to dinner, our waiter was a little bit of a jerk. I tipped low. You tipped low? Like below 20%? He was a real

jerk. I was like 15. Well, 15's not bad if you don't have the best service, but... It was more like 5. More like 5%? Okay. So you basically stiffed the waiter. Yeah. But he had it coming, but...

Did you make a show of it? No, I really didn't, but she could tell I was real aggravated about it and stuff. Even when I get bad service, I still have a hard time tipping less than 20%. Yeah, it is tough to do. When your weight is as bad as this guy was, shoot, it's not hard for me.

Yeah, I mean, if she saw you basically not give the guy a tip, that could be a turnoff. I know if I was with someone and they didn't tip the waiter, it depends. If the guy was terrible, I might be on board with that. But if they didn't tip, as a former server myself, I would probably not want to call them back. So maybe that's it. All right, well, we'll play a song and then come back and call her and see if we can figure it out for you, okay? Okay, thanks. Yep, we'll play a song and then come back and call her and see if we can figure it out for you. Okay. Okay. Thanks.

Yep. We'll do it next. Tim is on the phone and he went on a first date with Lila. They went to dinner and went to the park. They walked around. He said everything went great. It's been two weeks since he's talked to her and she hasn't responded to any of his texts or phone calls.

He said he's only reached out about three times, so nothing creepy. And we asked him what the reason was that he thinks he's not getting the call back. And the only thing he can think of is that he pretty much didn't give the waiter a tip because he said the waiter was a big jerk face. He didn't say jerk face. Those are my words. And I know I went a little hard on that one, Aiden,

but I feel like you thought the guy was a jerk face. Yeah, no, I would never call somebody a jerk face. Yeah. That's way too far. Yeah, that's reserved for the worst of the worst. So Aiden said the guy was a bad waiter and he didn't tip him well and he thinks that maybe Lila saw that and that's the reason she doesn't want to call him back. So ready to call her, Aiden?

Yeah, let's do this. All right, here we go. Hello? Hi, may I speak to Lila, please? This is she. Hello, Lila. My name is Jubal from the radio show, The Jubal Show. And my name is Alex Fresh.

And I'm English Evan. And we're all from the radio show. Um, okay. So have you ever heard of the Jubal show before? I have. Oh, you have. Okay. We do a segment on the show called the first date follow-up.

It's where if you go out on a date with someone and then you don't call them back, they can email us to get you on the phone. Oh, all right. Well, since you know, that's why we're calling. So do you have any idea about who we're calling about? Yeah, I think I do. Is this about Aiden? Yes, there it is. Okay. Correct. We're calling about Aiden.

Okay. Do you want to tell us why you're not calling Aiden back? Right. So I have to say that it really, it was a result of the date that we went on. You know, we had a nice time, but he would not stop smoking. Smoking what? Yeah. Smoking cigarettes. Oh, you don't like, you're not a smoker?

No, I'm not a smoker. And honestly, a few would have been fine, but he did it the entire night. How do you do that in the entire night? Didn't you guys go to dinner? Was he taking breaks at dinner? Mm-hmm. Oh, wow. Oh, my gosh.

How many cigarette breaks do you think he took? I mean, I bet he had to get a new pack at the end of the night. Okay. Question for you. Do you smoke? I don't. Do you vape? I don't vape either. They're different. Blow those clouds, bro. Anyway, um, I like the, and when you guys went to the park, that's kind of one thing at dinner though, taking breaks during your date, I could see that

definitely being a turnoff. Yeah. Dinner was long. I mean, it was about two hours and he would take a break and then we're going to the park and we're walking, we're talking, we're looking at nature, but he's blowing smoke, and it's going back in my face. I'm choking, and it's just not fun. If you're not a smoker, that's not the best feeling. Yeah. Is smoking in general just a turnoff for you, or do you feel like he's a chance smoker? It's not the worst thing.

Look, I like going out, and I know usually most events at night they tend to have smokers and it's fine and I like him. It's just, he would have to cut back on the smoking. That's asking a lot

of someone too. If they really like their cigarettes, you know, I used to smoke and I loved my cigarettes. You did? I did.

I mean, can't you like not do it on a first date though that much? I mean, if you have to like one? Yeah. Not around that person either?

Yeah, none of you take a break. Like, hey, I'm really enjoying the story about your personal life and getting to know you. One second,

I'll be back in 15 minutes. I really need to circuit. Gotta go smoke. Yeah, so I didn't feel right asking someone to just cut back on their own smoking,

so I just figured I, you know, wouldn't ask them for a second date. All right. Well, Lila, I'm going to need to take a smoke break real quick.

And I'll just tell you that Aiden is actually on the phone listening. Oh, that's right. Yes. You forgot about that part, huh? Aiden, are you still there or did you have to go grab a smoke? That's ridiculous. Like we had a, I mean, we had a fun time going on the date, but now you're not going to talk to me or call me back because I was smoking?

I mean, it was a lot. Like, you didn't notice that I was coughing and kind of taking steps back behind you? I mean, yeah, I noticed that. I didn't think it was going to be a deal breaker though yeah i mean like i said like a couple cigarettes are fine but like dude the entire time i mean well i mean i've been smoking for a while like it's just what i do you know but i mean yeah i'm not gonna i mean i'm not gonna cut, especially if it was somebody who wasn't going to tell me that. You just kind of disappeared on me. Do you think, Aiden, you could have taken a bit of a break

from the smoking scene as it was a first date? I guess so. I'm not going to lie. I guess so. I probably could have took a break on the second date if there was going to be one. But, I mean, I guess we could have talked about that. Aiden, did you at least offer her a cigarette?

Well, yeah. Yeah, I did. And she said she didn't smoke. So I was like, oh, okay, cool. Yeah, I mean, he did offer it to me, but I just said, no, thank you. I'm not interested. Well, did you, I mean, did you at least like him other than the fact that he smokes like that? Yeah, I mean, I did like him, but honestly, Aiden, you'd have to cut way back on the smoking, man.

So, all right. So that's what it is. It's just the fact that he is a chain smoker and you don't like to, and you don't smoke in general and you just don't want to go with someone who can't, you just don't want to be out with someone

who's constantly smoking. He thought that you weren't calling him back because he didn't give the waiter a tip. Wait, what? Yeah. Did you know that?

I didn't even, no, I didn't even notice that. Wait, you didn't tip the waiter? Well, I mean, I barely tipped him because he was a, he was an asshole. Oh, no, that's messed up, man.

I've been in wait service. That's messed up. I mean, he was a jerk. You don't remember all that? Got your order wrong. The water had no ice in it. Like, we both were real frustrated with it. I mean, I'm frustrated.

Maybe it's just because I've been a waiter. Like, I know it's not always their fault. Sometimes it's the kitchen. Yeah, you were a waiter. Once he gets a real job, he can get a real paycheck. Oh, my. Yikes. Oh, that's an interesting attitude.

That's the attitude I would expect a smoker to have. Everybody knows smokers and their inability to tip. Shots fired. What the hell is that supposed to mean? I think that means it's time for me to ask if you guys want to go on another date. Lila, would you like to go on another date with Aiden? We'll pay for it. Yeah, no, it doesn't sound like he's giving up smoking anytime soon.

The past. Doesn't seem like she's going to be interesting anytime soon. Oh, okay. Are you guys sure Because it literally Sounds like you I mean it's a match Made in heaven

Right now My heart Is about to beat Out of my chest Are you sure We'll pay for it Yeah exactly We'll pay for it
