Starting point is 00:02:42 Powered by the Advocates Injury Attorneys. Online at Advocateslaw.com. Trevor is on the phone today for our first date follow-up, and he's getting ghosted by a woman named Ella. So we're about to call her and see if she'll tell us why she's ghosting him and maybe get him a second date. First, Trevor, how long has it been since you heard from Ella? It's been a couple of months, actually.
Starting point is 00:03:02 Whoa. And you still want to get a hold of her? I can't stop thinking about her. What do you guys want to want, you know? You know, the heart wants what it wants. Well, tell us about your day with Ella. Look, I'll keep it real simple. You know, we were kind of just being texting and flirty and stuff,
Starting point is 00:03:18 and she invites me over to this, like, game night kind of situation with their friends, right? And it was super cozy. There were candles lit, snacks, that. you know, everyone was in sweats. It was something really nice. I really enjoyed it. And, you know, I thought I was a gentleman. I brought out a bottle of wine and my kind of like, funny but chill kind of energy.
Starting point is 00:03:37 You guys know how all that goes. Right, right, right. That's pretty much it. Yeah, like, her friends are super nice to me, except this one guy who kept winning everything, like he was born inside of a deck of Luma cards, but that's for the best of time. Mid heads up, I accidentally blurted out one of the answers
Starting point is 00:03:54 that I wasn't supposed to stay. like total rookie move, right? Everyone booed, laughed it off. Okay, chill. But I could tell Ella looked like, how can I say? Like, I broke some, I don't know, some sacred board game code. I accidentally did it twice. I'm so stupid.
Starting point is 00:04:14 I mean, I just also. I know. You're an innocent mistake. You know what can happen. But she's probably feeling like the guy I brought to Game Night is the one that's going to ruin Game Night. Right. I know, but listen, none of us are getting out of this thing alive anyways. So, you know, have a laugh and move on.
Starting point is 00:04:28 Totally, totally, totally. Like, felt fine and felt chill, you know, again, back to laughing, sitting close, we're all cozy. You know, her knee was touching mind and all that. I left thinking, sweet, game night boyfriend material. Yeah, you got some reaction. Yeah, like. That's a science. That's the part, well, listen, that's the part that I'm confused about.
Starting point is 00:04:48 Like, after that, don't know, radio silence, nothing. I texted her the next morning, nothing in the night. Truthfully, I still can't. figure out what it is like did i embarrass her but what the hell happened with do her friends not like me i don't i just don't get it yeah that does feel weird so yeah and i thought okay you know she just it didn't work out it's not meant to be so hopefully i thought i would have moved on from it but i i just can't i'm still thinking about it and i feel over a month and you're still thinking about it yeah i mean whenever she was giving you radio silence though did you think about like oh
Starting point is 00:05:22 let me just try texting like hey what's up well Well, I did, but that's what I'm saying. She didn't respond to me. Like, she's, she boasting me. Okay. So do you think it's the, you blurting out the thing at the board game? That's the reason she's ghosting you? I mean, I think that's a dumb reason to ghost someone,
Starting point is 00:05:40 but sure, that's the situation I have that came to mind that could be a reason. Do they take games really serious? Like, was that, did it feel like high competitive level? Not even, because, like, her friends were laughing. It was just her. She just looked bugged. I don't know where. I don't understand what the hell it was.
Starting point is 00:05:58 Yes, I guess it was that, but that's weird. All right, well, we'll see what it is. We'll play a song, come back, and then call her and see if she'll tell us why she's ghosting you and maybe get you a second date, okay? All right. Good luck. We'll get your first day follow up next. Hey, I'm Jay Shetty, and I'm the host of the On Purpose podcast.
Starting point is 00:06:15 Recently, I had the honor of sitting down with the iconic Chris Jenner. You never quite know what or where life is going to lead you and where it's going to be the best lesson you are. ever learned and not get distracted by the noise. This is a lot of noise. Even if one of your children has been through something really difficult with their partner or an ex-partner, you still love them as part of the unit and the family. These are, in most cases, the fathers of my grandchildren.
Starting point is 00:06:43 I love these men and that love doesn't go away when we experience really challenging times with them. Compassion is key. is key into really feeling what somebody might be going through. Even though you don't agree with them, if you once love them, then love is love. Listen to On Purpose with Jay Shetty on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. On the podcast Health Stuff, we are tackling all the health questions that keep you up at night. Yes, I'm Dr. Priyanka Wally, a double board certified physician.
Starting point is 00:07:21 And I'm Hurricane Dibolu, a comedian. and someone who once Googled, do I have scurvy at 3 a.m. On health stuff, we're talking about health in a different way. It's not only about what we can do to improve our health, but also what our health says about us and the way we're living. Like our episode where we look at diabetes. In the United States, I mean, 50% of Americans are pre-diabetic.
Starting point is 00:07:44 How preventable is type 2? Extremely. Or our in-depth analysis of how incredible mangoes are. Oh, it's hard to explain to the rest of the world that, like, your mangoes are fine because mangoes are incredible, but, like, you don't even know. You don't know. You don't know. It's going to be a fun ride.
Starting point is 00:08:06 So tune in. Listen to health stuff on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. The Big Take podcast from Bloomberg News dives deep into one big global business story every weekday. A shutdown means we don't get the data, but it also. It also means for President Trump that there's no chance of bad news on the labor market. What does a bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich, reveal about the economy? Our breakfast foods are consistent consumer staples, and so they sort of become outsize indicators of inflation.
Starting point is 00:08:39 What's behind Elon Musk's trillion-dollar payout? There's a sort of concerted effort to message that Musk is coming back. He's putting politics aside. He's left the White House. And what can the PCE tell you that the CPI? can't. CPI tries to measure out-of-pocket costs that consumers are paying for things, whereas the PCE index that the Fed targets is a little bit broader of a measure.
Starting point is 00:09:06 Listen to the big take from Bloomberg News every weekday afternoon on the IHeart radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Right in the middle of your first aid follow-up, if you're just joining us, Trevor is on the phone and he's getting ghosted by Ella. So in a second, we're going to call her and see if she'll tell us why she's going to ghosting him, and maybe get him a second date. But before we do that, Trevor, why don't you refresh our memory about your date real quick? Yeah, pretty much.
Starting point is 00:09:30 I'll keep it real simple. I went out on this date with this girl called Ella. I really liked her. I went to her house. We had a nice little game night with her friends, cozy, the snacks and stuff. And I kind of made me f***ed up. I blurted out a couple of answers. I shouldn't have blurted out and maybe spoiled half of the game.
Starting point is 00:09:48 But, hey, everybody else was laughing. She's the only one who seemed bothered by it. And that's it. I texted her the next morning. I haven't heard from her, ghosted, and I want to really try to reach out to her. That has been over a month. All right. You ready for us to call her?
Starting point is 00:10:01 Go for it. Okay, here we go. Hello. Hi, may I speak to Ella, please? This is she. Hey, Ella, how are you? This is a radio show. It's called The Jubal Show.
Starting point is 00:10:20 Hi, Ella. I'm Nina. Hi, I'm Victoria. My name's Jubal. What's up? Hi. I'm good. This is cool. What's going on? Do you listen to the show? I do, yeah.
Starting point is 00:10:32 Sweet. Thank you. Have you ever heard a first day follow-up before? Yes. Great. How excited would you be to know if I was calling you because of that? I would be a little nervous. You know, that's the segment where if you go on a day with somebody and you end up ghosting them, they can email us to get you on the phone and ask why you're ghosting them. We got an email about you, Ella.
Starting point is 00:10:55 From who? You want to take a guess? Okay, I don't know that I ghosted anyone recently. Have you gone on a date with anybody and just, like, didn't talk to him again? I mean, yes, I've definitely done that, but the last day I went on was Josh, but I don't think that, I think that was, like, a mutual ghost. Okay, he goes to each other It's not Josh And it has been a while since this date
Starting point is 00:11:27 Think back to like over a month ago Over a month ago Game night Oh my gosh, this is for Trevor Yes it is Trevor emailed us Told us all about your date said he really liked you He's been thinking about you for over a month
Starting point is 00:11:44 And you ghosted him and he wants to know why Would you mind telling us? Oh my gosh, this is embarrassing Okay, yeah, I will tell you about it. Okay. It was really weird, honestly. We were at this game night, right? It's my friend's house, and he keeps referring to my friend's dog, and he's like, hey, little dude.
Starting point is 00:12:08 He says it, like 50 times, little dude. It's not a dog. What is it? It's a ferret. He thought it was a dog. Okay. These are so cute. I know, they are so cute
Starting point is 00:12:22 But they're very different than dogs And he was Choosing it like a dog He was like petting it and saying like Oh, what a cute little puppy He thought that ferret was a dog Yes Did you correct him?
Starting point is 00:12:37 I don't know that I necessarily was like It's a ferret I feel like It was like self-explanatory It's one thing to like Oh, he's calling the ferret a dog Ha ha ha ha But he was trying to feed it
Starting point is 00:12:50 and ferrets have really sensitive tummies and I felt like I was being like really clear like hey don't feed it and he just kept coming back to like this is a cute little dude he needs to eat like it was so odd too like why was he doing this puppy voice all night it's like one thing like when you first see the animal but all night and like my friends are watching the whole thing and oh it was just so embarrassing okay so the ferret that he thought Thought was a dog is the reason that you ghosted him. Yes. My friend even pulled me aside and was like, hey, can you get this guy to stop?
Starting point is 00:13:28 And I asked him, and he was just, he's so cute. Yeah. Put me in an awkward position. And I was like, I don't want to go out with someone who doesn't have any social cues. Honestly, I can't recognize a fare from a dog. All right. Well, thank you for telling us why you're ghosting him. Yeah, of course
Starting point is 00:13:50 Well, I don't know if you forgot or not But Trevor is on the phone listening and wants to talk to you Yeah Oh, yeah I definitely Okay, Ella Yes That is absolutely ridiculous
Starting point is 00:14:06 It has spur I could have swore I thought it was a dog Oh my God, I'm sorry It was a ferret It's like a pool noodle with teeth I don't understand And so you just don't want to see me anymore because of that?
Starting point is 00:14:22 I mean, Ella, look, I was enjoying my time. If it bothered you so much, why didn't you just tell me that it was a ferret? I just assumed you wouldn't know. I didn't want to make you feel stupid. Well, you're making me feel stupid now. Well, I aren't the one who called into a radio show about a dog ferret. I called about you because I miss you and I have a, I had a good time with it. I want to see you again.
Starting point is 00:14:46 Chairman, we went on one date. And we can go on a second date. If you get over this whole dog fairy thing, look, I can work on it. It takes a second for me to go to a dog part and work on my dog spotting capabilities. What? You're going to bring flashcards to the dog park? If that's what it takes to get a second Ella date, I'm in. That's very sweet, but why would I want to go out with someone who are doesn't know what a dog and a ferret is.
Starting point is 00:15:20 Well, because he knows now. Like, lesson learned, it's not going to happen again. Ferrets are ferrets, dogs are dogs. Like, I get it now. Trevor, I don't want to have to be your teacher. You should have learned that and it's great. Well, you're my teacher anyways because you're teaching me now and I learn. Better late than never, right?
Starting point is 00:15:39 Trevor, you're hot, but maybe you need a little more life experience before you can try to bond with another species. Ella, would you like another date with Trevor? We'll pay for it. Um, not yet. Ella, Ella, they just offered a free date.
Starting point is 00:15:57 If you don't want to go, I'll go off with the ferret, but I need that. I want a free date. Oh, so you only want it because it's free? No, I don't want it because it's free. I mean, yeah, of course, that's too, but it's because it's with you.
Starting point is 00:16:09 Man, you guys are between you and your ferret. I don't know. It's kind of hard to please you guys, and why am I liking it? Why am I turned on right now? Ella, did you see what you just did? You just cracked a laugh. People who don't like people, don't do that.
Starting point is 00:16:25 I don't laugh when I don't like someone in front of me. I was just laughing because it was ridiculous what you said. See, when you said that, you were smiling. I can hear it. I just saw you. And you're smiling right now. I see you. Come on, Ella.
Starting point is 00:16:38 One more day. I promise you no animal species will be mixed up. What do you think, Ella? As long as we don't go to a zoo, I'm in. Really? Wow. Trevor, congratulations. You got another date.
