First day follow-up.
You never know where you might meet the love of your life.
Could be the grocery store.
Could be a farmer's market.
Farmer's market.
I hear there's lots of loves of lives at farmer's markets walking around.
Could be a funeral home.
Wow.
Could be a retirement home.
Nice ass ass grandma.
And that's where Bruce, who's on the phone today
for a first date follow up, met the girl
that he went on a date with,
and now she's not calling him back.
So Bruce is obviously into older ladies.
What's up Bruce, how are you?
Oh, what an intro.
Thank you so much for taking my call.
I hate to break it to you,
I was at the retirement home visiting my grandma.
I love my grandma.
She.
I don't care what your reasons were for being at the retirement home.
I'm not judging that.
I'm not even judging you for asking out older ladies at the retirement home.
Everybody's got their thing that they're into.
So tell us about.
It's a great place for scouting.
Yeah.
Tell us about the woman you went out on a date with.
What's her name?
What's her age?
Ethel. She's 18. Her the woman you went on a date with. What's her name? What's her age? Ethel.
She's 80.
Her name's Nadine.
She's 26.
She actually works at the retirement home.
My grandma.
That's a relief.
She's been trying to set us up for months now.
She works with my grandma pretty often.
I see her when I visit my grandma.
Okay.
Stuff like that.
How long has it been since your
date? Um, maybe like a week, a little over a week ago. How many times have you tried to reach out
to her in that week and a half? I've called like maybe twice, but I have sent her more texts than
I'd care to admit right now. You know what you should have done? You should have asked your grandma to get a hold of her.
I
did, but my grandma
said she didn't say anything
about the date, so that's even
weirder. That's kind of worse, too.
Okay. So that is
a lot of reaching out to her, and she didn't respond
at all? No.
What did you guys do?
So, there's this really cool restaurant right near the retirement
home. And I sometimes take my grandma there and I thought it was pretty cool. And like, I don't
know, they know me there. And obviously I wasn't there with my grandma. So they knew I was like
on a date. And like, I feel like she just didn't like it because it was close there. And I took my grandma there.
She felt like I didn't take it seriously or something.
That's how I feel.
The vibe I'm getting, why she's not calling me back or whatever.
As long as it wasn't a place like Denny's.
You know, where I could see grandma's liking to go.
And it's over Miami.
Was it a diner or was it a really cool restaurant?
Grandma's more of an IHOP lady, but this was just more of like a, I don't want to say like low key, but it's just a nice little Italian restaurant.
Yeah, I don't think that going to a restaurant close to where she works would be a problem.
No.
I don't know.
I had a good time and I thought it went well.
Like when I asked her for her number, she seemed really into it.
I thought we had a good date, but then just complete no calls, no texts afterwards.
I'm like, I don't know what I could have said or done for such a, I don't know, extreme like reaction.
Because it's like now I'm like even afraid to go visit my grandma because there might be this awkward tension.
Okay, well, how did the date end?
Did you get a kiss? A hug?
It was a hug, but like, you know, it was more of like a lunch date sort of thing. It didn't have that. I don't know. It wasn't like in the evening where I feel like that sort of ending happens. I
don't know. Maybe I'm overthinking that. All right. And when you guys parted ways,
did you make plans to go out again in the future? You know how that happens.
Like, hey, that was a really fun time.
I enjoyed myself so much.
So did I.
Would you like to go out again soon?
Yes, I would.
Goodbye.
Yeah, I kind of made some sort of mention as like, you know, we hugged and went our separate ways.
And she said, yeah, that'd be great or something along those lines.
That's exactly what I said.
That is the exact same.
All right.
Well, we'll try to figure it out for you because, I said. That is the exact same. Alright, well,
we'll try to figure it out for you because
everything you're telling us, you're sure not
leaving anything out important in the story because
it sounds pretty normal and sometimes
we'll call someone and they're like, oh yeah, they burned the whole
restaurant down. You should have told us that.
No, I really can't. I don't know.
I can't think of anything. I just feel like
she was just polite and
going on the date with you to begin with.
Like maybe she just doesn't like you
and she just did it to like get it over with.
Yeah.
And maybe to please the grandma as well.
I mean, that could be it,
but I'd rather she had just said no then.
I don't know.
All right.
We'll play a song, come back,
and then call her and see if we can figure it out
with your first day follow-up, okay?
Awesome.
Thank you.
In the middle of your first day follow-up,
if you're just joining us,
Bruce is on the phone.
And Bruce met the girl who's not calling him back
at a retirement home.
And no, she's not one of the retirees who lives there.
She actually works there.
His grandma lives at the retirement home.
So he asked her out
and they went out to an Italian restaurant down the street.
He says everything went fine.
And now she's ghosted him for over a week and a half,
and he has no idea why,
so we're gonna call her and try to figure it out.
You really can't think of anything, Bruce.
I really can't.
I've been replaying the situation
over and over again in my head,
and I thought it even ended well.
Like, I'm really just confused about the whole thing.
Okay.
I'm gonna call her right now
and see if we can figure it out for you, all right?
You ready?
Awesome, I'm going to call it right now and see if we can figure it out for you, all right? You ready? Awesome. I'm ready.
Hello?
Hi, may I speak to Nadine, please?
This is Nadine.
Nadine, how are you?
My name is Jubal Fresh from The Jubal Show. Mine's Alex Fresh from The Jubal Show.
Mine's English Evan from The Jubal Show.
And this is, if you haven't figured that out by now, The Jubal Show.
Okay, I'm sorry, who?
I'm a little confused.
The Jubal Show.
So, like, why are you guys calling me?
Well, The Jubal Show is a radio show, and we do a thing on the show where we, if you go out on a date with someone and then don't call them back, they can email us to get you on the phone and ask you what happened and why you're not getting back to them.
It's called a first date follow up.
Oh, boy.
Can we go back to politics?
I think I'd rather talk politics.
Yeah.
Well, so you went on a date with someone that does listen to our show, and they emailed us.
So you have any guess on who it would be?
I have my suspicions, but I'm going to, instead of opening mouth and inserting foot, I'm going to let you guys tell me what's going on.
You met a guy at the retirement home that you work at, and he wasn't an elderly gentleman.
He was of the young variety.
His name, I think it's Brusset.
Yeah, I know who you're talking about.
So he called you.
He emailed us, told us about your date, told us that you've been ghosting him for like a week and a half.
And then we talked to him on the phone and learned a little more.
And he's wondering what he did because he really liked you.
At this point, he's taken every avenue.
So I'll just put it all out there.
I'm not necessarily ghosting him he spent the entire date wishing his grandma was a ghost so he could have her inheritance and i
personally did not appreciate that at all like all of our residents are like second sets of
grandparents to me like i love our residents so much like i work at the retirement home that his
his grandma's at.
I'm sure he's told you everything.
So he's staying close with his grandma so he can get her inheritance.
He legitimately was saying that, like, he just can't wait for her to die.
What?
Who says that?
That is so insanely sad.
He used those exact words?
Yes.
And she's the sweetest woman.
And the thing is,
is like he just seems like such a snake because he's there a lot.
He takes her out and stuff.
And so I always felt like, wow,
like he really like must be a good catch.
Like what a loving person.
That's what I was thinking.
Yeah, we have a lot of residents
who just like sit there alone, you know?
And like she has company
and she lights up every time he walks in the door.
And now I'm like, he's only doing it because he's like money hungry.
Okay. Question for you guys, everybody, including you. I know we just met,
but I have a question for you. So he's spending time with his grandma to get the inheritance.
So is it a bad thing though? Cause at least he's spending time with her.
I mean, what you don't know won't hurt you, But the truth is, I know and it hurt me. So I
don't want to date somebody like that. Because I truly and honestly care about my residents. And I
care about my family. And like, I want I mean, like, I'm in my mid 20s. I'm thinking, you know,
future like when I date somebody, I want to like not waste time. I want to see you know,
that things are going to lead to somewhere and he clearly is not a family man like personally I'm just not I'm just not into him
anymore and it stinks because otherwise he really seemed like a good guy but I've been wrong before
and I guess I was wrong again and the difference with him is it sounds like if he's comfortable
saying that out loud he's obviously a psycho like no one normal says that out loud, he's obviously a psycho. Like no one normal says that out loud.
You might think it.
Exactly.
You might be like, man, I'm going to get so much money.
Yeah.
And to say it to you is like really weird.
Yeah, because you work there and on a date.
Right.
Plus he takes his grandma out to that same restaurant.
So I'm like, okay, if you are taking her here and you want her dead so you can benefit from it what are you using me for you know like I just felt like if that's like if that's how you're wired then there's like no true altruism here like there's
something up like you want something from me like I don't know he just seems like a snake at this
point and I'm just not interested in his trouser snake at this juncture so just stop texting me
at any point now that'd be great actually yeah let's just tell him to stop texting you then, because actually, Nadine,
he's on the phone listening.
What?
He's on the line
right now? Yeah.
I cannot
with this person. Oh, my God.
Bruce, say hi to Nadine. Nadine, say hi to
Bruce.
Hi, Nadine.
Wow, this is way more awkward than I ever thought it was gonna be um
yeah those were just jokes I just made a joke about it and I guess it was I was nervous it
was poorly timed and stuff like that like I said the thing about the inheritance like when we got
the bill because it was just higher than I thought it was going to be. Cause I eat there all the time. Just weird things like that.
I just didn't, I was just joking.
But yeah, I just see how it comes across as awful.
I mean, I'm pretty sure you said it more than once.
And like the way you're framing it right now is like, okay, like if you said it when the bill came, like I can take a joke.
I would laugh at that.
I would think that's like probably, you know, just ingest, but no, you definitely said
it multiple times. You literally were talking about how you hate going there. You hate wasting
your time. I'm the only reason you even want to come around. Like, don't, don't start with this.
Honestly, like, don't, don't try to like backpedal just because you're on the radio. You did this to
yourself. You need to take your medicine, just like all the folks at the retirement home
need to take theirs.
So it is what it is.
I'm sorry.
It's just not going to work out.
I'll be polite and professional when I see you at the center,
but like,
that's really it.
So you swear he wasn't joking and Bruce used it.
You swear you were joking.
I mean,
like she doesn't even have like a good sense of humor,
obviously.
So it's like,
I don't want to date somebody like that.
Oh, Bruce.
Wow, okay, maybe you're just not funny, so there's that.
I think I have plenty of a sense of humor.
I burned you multiple times in this call, sir,
so I'm really not interested in your back telling.
Well, I do have to ask a question,
even though I'm going to take a wild guess and say that you guys don't want to go out again.
But Nadine, would you like to go on another date with Bruce?
We will pay for it.
That's going to be a no from me, dog.
But you can go ahead and give him the money because clearly that's all he's interested in.
