First date of follow-up. Powered by the phone today for a first date follow up and she's getting ghosted by a dude named Drew. 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, Jordan, how long has it been since you heard from Drew?

It's been about two weeks now. Okay. How many times have you tried to hit him up in that time? Just twice. Once, like really soon after our date. And then once again, I want to say like three days ago. Okay. And nothing. He just left you on red.

Yeah, just nothing. Okay. Well nothing. He just left you on red. Yeah, just nothing. Okay. Well, let's talk about the date. Let's go back and try to figure it out. I know I'm sorry. This is the worst. No, thank you for doing this. So we met on hinge, right? And he messaged me first, which is already a win in my book. And he saw my photos in Thailand and said something about white lotus which full disclosure I did not know what that was but I was just playing along and making plans to get drinks and he suggested this sports bar because there was a vibe there which honestly wasn't my favorite

but I went with it because he's really cute and you know fun and So yeah, we were just we had a great talk and He's really ambitious. He told me about how he wants to launch his own streetwear brand and Yeah And then someone sent shots over which honestly, I don't, I don't usually do shots, but like again, he's really cute. I'm having fun. Wait back up really quick.

He introduced you to some of his friends. Yeah, I guess this is a bar that they kind of frequent. So a couple of them just happened. I thought that was, you know, like he, it's not like he was like, Oh my friends, we have to go. You know, he introduced me. So that was nice. Okay.

And then after a while they were like, okay, we're going to go do our thing over some bar and then just left us on our own. Okay, good. I was like, these friends do crash the party, try to get you guys wasted and then sit back and watch what happens. That's actually kind of funny. Yeah, no, they were like apropos. They were good.

Okay, good. Okay. Are they the ones that sent you the shots though? That's actually kind of funny. Yeah, no, they were like apropos. They were good. Okay, good. Okay. Are they the ones that sent you the shots though? I, yeah, I think ultimately that's what we figured out, but I wasn't really paying attention. I was like, I was, I was just having fun and like I said, like I don't really do shots

or I was just like, okay, I'm going to get this over with. Okay. Thanks so much about refilling it. Were you feeling it? Yeah. Yeah. Um, I mean, I felt safe enough to like not overly question where the shots were coming from, I guess. Now that I'm thinking about it, I probably should have, but it's okay. It was, it was just a lot of fun.

All right. Well, how did the date end with him? Um, I think I was okay. Like, okay, it got a little weird. So like he's laughing, having fun, we're all cool. And then, like out of nowhere, he had to leave and he made up some excuse, he paid the tab and then he did. And at one point, shortly before that, he and his friends were at the bar and they kept looking back at me which made me feel like self-conscious but I was like what is there something on me?

So I went to the bathroom and the only thing I can think is that my shirt was a little to be true but I thought that that was you know hot and it made me feel good and not a reason to be like grossed out by me or anything. No, Yeah. His friends were pointing at you or looking over at you and talking. What was the excuse that he gave you? Um, just that he had to, I think he said something about like having to get up early the next day and, and do something for building his business, which is okay.

Great. Like, yeah, he's, I know that he's ambitious. I know, you know, he gave me a lot of details about his plans But it was just the way that it happened like it was so sudden to abruptly leave We're seems like something they said might be the reason that he left Exactly and I don't know what it was and I just like I would really like to know what happened Okay Well, we'll try to figure it out for you will 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 you a second date, okay? If you still want. Okay. Okay, we'll get your first day follow up next. We live in a divided country. I am a lifelong Republican. With all kinds of different people. You know, I'm a mother, I'm a grandmother.

The best things in life are on the other side of difficult conversations, but most people avoid them. Staying silent, missing opportunities, and holding themselves back. I know this is true because I used to be one of those people. As a kid, I struggled to fit in and I was afraid to speak up.

That fear followed me into adulthood until I realized something powerful. Negotiation isn't a talent, It's a skill anyone can learn. And it starts with negotiating with yourself, breaking through fear, self-doubt, and the limits we place on ourselves. Now I help people from all walks of life, whether it's people closing multi-million dollar deals, parents setting boundaries, students finding their voice, or professionals advancing their careers. If you want to handle tough conversations, get what you deserve and take control of your future,

this podcast is for you. I'm Kwame Christian, host of Negotiate Anything, the number one negotiation podcast in the world, where you'll learn one simple truth. You don't get what you deserve, you get what you negotiate. Listen to Negotiate Anything on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast.

On this week's episode, I talk with comedian and CNN host Roy Wood Jr. about the lack of African-American star power in Major League Baseball. Baseball needs an Anthony Edwards. And I don't know who that could be. Mookie Betts is Steph Curry. He's exceptional and likeable, million dollar smile. That's important. But you also need Chaos Negro. So you think Anthony Edwards is a chaos agent?

He told, he talked, you saw the clip of him talking to Obama. He was talking to Obama like that was his little brother. Oh yeah, you, what you did, you killed Ben Laden. That's what's up.

And if you're just joining us, Jordan is on the phone and she's getting ghosted by a guy named Drew. So we're about to call him and see if he'll tell us why he's ghosting her and get her a second date if she still wants one. But before we do that, Jordan, break down your date for us again real quick one time. Yeah. one but before we do that Jordan break down your date for us again real quick one time. Yeah so we met on Hinge and we ended up going to the sports bar and a couple of his friends were there and so I got to meet them and then we were having a great time and then all of a sudden he decided like he needed to leave very quickly and he made up this excuse and I haven't

heard from him since and I'd like to know what happened. That's so weird. Well, are you ready for us to give Drew a call? Yes. Alright, here we go. Hello? Hi, may I speak to Drew please? This is him, who's this?

Drew, how are you? This is a radio station. Hello? Hi, may I speak to Drew please? This is him. Who's this? Drew, how are you? This is a radio show. It's called the Jubal Show. Hi, Drew.

I'm Nina. Hi, I'm Victoria. And my name is Jubal. How are you? I'm good. I'm familiar with you guys. Why are you following me? Just to see how you're doing.

Just checking in. You know, we know you listen. We listen to you too when you don't know it. Checking in on all the fans. No, Drew, we're calling you because this is a first time. We're going to be doing this for the first time. We're going to be doing this for the first time. We're going to be doing this for the first time. We're going to be doing this for the first time. We're going to be doing this for the first time. We're going to be doing this for the you listen. We listen to you too when you don't know it. Checking in on all the fans.

No, Drew, we're calling you because this is a first date follow up, you know. If you go on a date with someone and then you end up ghosting them, they can email us to call you and find out why, so we got an email about you. It's Jordan, isn't it? Yes it is. Oh, wow, you didn't even have to think about that.

She told us about your date and she's really confused. Says that you guys were hanging out at the bar, your friends ended up being there too, and at one point you went over to your friends and then it looked like they were pointing towards her and then after that you said you had to get up for work or something and bounced. Mm-hmm.

Well, okay, so first off, thrilled to be talking to you guys. I've been listening for a while, but when Jordan, she was nice, fun, even, but I ghosted her because I cannot be out here dating someone who just confidently uses words, absolutely and completely wrong. What do you mean? Like I tried to let it go. I really did, but she kept using like juxtaposition as if it meant like compromise.

You like wine, I like sports bars, but I think we can find a juxtaposition, you know? Oh, okay. Listen, is that not cute? I mean, if it's one word, sure, I get it. Like, you know, it's like a little quirky cute moment and then you can correct it. But it kept happening over and over again with different words. And then, uh, like my friends ended up being at the bar and, um, she was like talking,

they're joking about something and she just went, this is such an ambiguous situation and it wasn't, it was like super clear I think she meant to say like ridiculous or wild but she was like so sure she's like this is so Okay She seemed well-spoken when we talked to her like it didn't seem like that was going on when we talked to her I Don't know. I don't know that wasn't my experience, You know, like I said, she was nice. She was even fun. But I'm big on words, man. Like you got no basic English language, you know.

All right. Thank you for telling us Drew. And also if you listen to the show. Yeah, you know what happens now? Hi Jordan. Hi. Wow. I'm so sorry that I didn't live up to your English speaking expectations. You knew what I meant though, right? Like that's all that matters. Communication is about intent, right? Like reading people.

Totally. For the most part, but like just basic, first grade understanding of the language is important. Like words mean things, Jordan. And the worst part is like my friends caught it too. Uh, one of them even repeated it back to you like, yeah, girl, super ambiguous. And they were all laughing and you just nodded like they weren't roasting you. I was like, you gotta have a little bit of like self awareness about those. Roasting me?

I, wow. Okay. I don't even know what to say to that. Like I, I, I'm pretty sure I have better than a first grade understanding of the English language. Well, you did say you don't drink shots a lot. So maybe that just kind of threw off your basic understanding of certain words. You know, I don't know.

Maybe because you do sound well spoken now. Thank you. I, I'd like to think that I am at least most of the time. I don't know what you expected as me. Um, but your friends were all of a sudden there and I guess I was trying to impress and just be, you know, conversational with everybody and, you know, I was drunk and like, I don't know, amused. I don't know. Like you're, you're acting like I did

something wrong to you. You were what? You got that one right. You were bemused. What does bemused mean? I think it means confused. I don't know. I'm bemused right now. See, I know how to use words. Totally. I mean, we're all a little bemused right now, you know? Oh my... I was just saying, look, you didn't do anything to me. You were nice. You were fun. It's just not for me.

Like words mean things and I can't, for me, I can't be explaining basic vocabulary every time we hang out, you know? I'm, I'm sure we can find some sort of like explanation, juxtaposition about this. Jordan, you're doing it again. You just did it. That's not what that word means. Yeah, go on. It's just, that's what what that is what that means.

That's what juxtaposed means. No, that's not what it means Jordan. No, when two people disagree, they come to a juxtaposition. That is what that means. Oh my goodness. You guys see what I'm talking about? It's like and you're just getting a little sneak peek. We were out there for like two hours I think she's right. I wish you guys could come to a juxtaposition. I mean I understand

Don't encourage her this can be said No, would you like to go on another date with Jordan? We'll pay for it and you guys can see if you can juxtapose in person No words mean things man, I can't, I can't be doing that. Yeah, I also don't want another date because you clearly don't know words like you think you do. Why don't you go look up juxtapose juxtaposition in a dictionary and you can figure it out from there. Girl, I speak four languages. This is crazy. I hate this so much
