First day follow-up.
You see those names sometimes
where you're not sure how to pronounce
it, right? Because the spelling is confusing.
And then there's those other names where
you're not sure how to pronounce it because
it just looks
like it has to be pronounced a certain way.
And there's a dude on the phone who's not getting a call back from a woman
that he went on a date with.
Her name is Reese and he wants another date with her.
This is the first date follow up.
That's what we do.
Right.
But his name,
I'm not sure how to say it.
Okay.
Cause it's,
it's spelled A-S-H.
Right.
So Ash.
Right.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I would think,
but I feel like if you have a name,, it's going to be like, Ash.
My name is Ash.
Like a Sufa dude.
Kind of, yeah.
I feel like only those types of dudes would be named Ash.
So, Ash, what's up, dude?
How are you?
I'm good.
How are you guys?
Good.
Pretty close, honestly.
Anyway, man, how long has it been since your date?
It's been like a week and a half now.
A week and a half.
Okay.
And how many times have you reached out to Reese, right?
That's her name, Reese?
Yeah, Reese.
No, no.
I only actually reached out like once.
She has her reads on, so I know she saw the text.
Oh, that's heartbreaking.
All right.
So you've been left on read, huh?
When did you text her?
It's been a week and a half, but did you text her the next day?
No, I gave her a couple days because I was also in the phase of,
is she going to text me first?
So then when it was a couple days, I just reached out to her.
Yeah, and you're probably a pretty chill dude.
Your name's Ash.
There's no way you can not be a chill dude and be like,
I'll just wait and see how it goes with a name like Ash.
My personality was kind of given to me at birth.
All right, well, tell us about your date.
What did you guys do?
Well, I told her that I would surprise her with a date idea,
and then I took her to this animal shelter that I work at.
Oh, you're trying to do the whole, like, look at me.
I work at an animal shelter, and I take care of sick animals.
Oh, yeah, I mean, I love animals,
and I thought that's always a nice way to show that you're caring,
so I thought that'd be a good idea.
You sound like the kind of guy
who later on volunteers at the old people's home.
Well, I mean, yeah,
I have done that before, actually, yeah.
Are you going to tell us next
that you're a firefighter, too,
and you play guitar around campfires?
Like, all the things?
I do play guitar, but I'm not a firefighter.
Oh, my God.
Okay, Ash. I mean, it's better than involuntarily picking up trash on the side of the freeway. do play guitar, but I'm not. Oh my God. Okay,
Ash.
I mean,
it's better than
involuntarily picking up
trash on the side of the
freeway.
That's true.
Yeah,
who a lot of people,
we've had a lot of
first aid follow-ups
with someone like that
and not someone who
just does it out of
the kindness of their
heart.
Anyway,
that's not an average
date though to take
someone on.
Do you,
does she seem to like it?
I don't know.
I'm not really sure.
I mean,
I thought it'd be a
cool way to connect
with her and like
break the ice,
but I don't know. I think there could have been worse dates, right? Like, I mean, it could have gone better, but I thought it was okay, honestly.
Okay. So she's not calling you back. It's been a week and a half. Why do you think she's blowing you off?
Well, I mean, I've been thinking about it and I think the only thing could be like, well, one of the dogs did like pee on her shoe.
And it wasn't a lot, but I think it might have like ruined her overall experience.
Do you know she's an animal person?
I mean, I thought because she's a girl that she might be, but... Oh, you assumed.
Yeah.
Yeah, I assumed.
You know, that was stupid, yeah.
So do you just want to find out what happened and why she's not calling you back or you do want a second date with her?
No, I'll be honest.
Like we, I thought we had a really good time
and she was like, I mean, she was really cool.
She was very easy to talk to.
And I told her a lot about myself.
So I thought we were kind of hitting it off.
And I'd really just, I'd like to know what happened
and if I can get another date.
Okay, question for you.
Did she also tell you a lot about her?
Like a little bit.
Okay.
I think it was mostly me doing the talking, honestly.
That could be a reason, too.
You think maybe because the dog peed on the shoe,
and then also maybe you were talking a bunch.
Yeah, now you put it that way.
We'll see.
We'll try to figure it out for you, okay?
We'll play a song, come back, and then call her
and see if the dog peeing on her shoe ruined your chances or you ruined your chances. But either way, we'll see. We'll try to figure it out for you, okay? We'll play a song, come back, and then call her and see if the dog peeing on her shoe ruined your chances
or you ruined your chances.
But either way, we'll see if we can get another date, okay?
Awesome, thanks, guys.
We'll do it right after this.
It's The Jubal Show.
We're in the middle of your first date follow-up.
And we got Ash on the phone,
and Ash wants us to call a woman named Reese
that he went on a date with, and she's ghosted him.
And we just talked to Ash about the date.
Ash took Reese
to the animal shelter that he
works at. He also volunteers
at an old folks home from time to time.
He plays guitar.
Anything else we should know about you and your charitable
efforts?
No, I think you hit the nail on the head.
Okay. And like I'm thinking,
I can't think of the guy's name, but he's a singer.
He lives on the beach, plays guitar. He's of the guy's name but he's a singer he's like a lives on the beach
plays guitar
he's literally the guy
that sits around the campfire
and plays guitar
and all the women
love that dude
and he lives in Hawaii
he basically just tans all day
and it's like
Bob Marley?
No it's not
Bob Marley doesn't
Bob Marley's not with us anymore
Jack Johnson?
Yes Christian our digital director
Jack Johnson
that's who I'm trying to think of
You're welcome
You don't know I'll find a song of his I'll play a Jack Johnson, that's who I'm trying to think of. You're welcome.
I'll find a song of his. I'll play a clip. You'll know exactly who I'm talking about. Mr. Carefree.
Trust me. If I play it, you probably know.
Anyway, do you know who Jack Johnson is?
I do, yes. I do.
That's who I picture when I think of you.
Nobody really got that except for
Christian who kind of got it, our digital director.
I'm dying inside, though. I thought
that was hilarious. Either way, let's get to the date.
Ash went out with a woman named Reese.
She's not calling him back.
They went to the dog shelter where he works at.
He thinks that he's not going to call back because a dog accidentally peed on her shoe while she was there.
And also, he might have talked about himself too much and not enough about her.
So we're going to get her on the phone right now and find out what one of those is the thing.
And if it isn't, we'll find out what it is and try to get another date.
You ready to go?
I'm good to go.
All right, here we go.
Hello?
Hi, may I speak to Reese, please?
Yeah, this is her.
Hey, Reese, how are you?
Yeah, I'm good. Who is this?
This is actually the Jubal Show. It's a radio show. My name is Jubal.
My name is Alex.
My name is English Evan.
And we do a second on our show where if you go out on a date with someone and then end up ghosting them,
that person can email us to get you on the phone and ask what happened.
And we got an email about you
from someone who listens to our show.
Okay.
Do you want to know who it is?
Yes, please.
Yeah, his name is Ash.
Oh, my God.
That a**.
Wait, did you say Ash or another word?
Oh, the other word.
Sorry, yeah.
Okay.
Oh, my God. Well, what word? Oh, the other word. Sorry. Yeah. Okay.
Oh, well, what happened?
Oh, my God.
I just feel like I am, first of all, way better than Ash.
And he needs to, well, long story short, I don't know why you guys know, but he needs to rethink the idea of what a date is.
Why?
Why do you say that?
I mean, he told us that he took you to where he works, which was the animal shelter.
But, you know, he said
that he wasn't really sure how you thought
the date went, but he really liked you. So,
what is your take on it?
Yeah, what did he tell you about
the animal shelter date?
Well, he said he thought you guys had fun.
He thought it would be a cool thing to do, kind of different than
your normal date. He thinks that the reason
that you've ghosted him is because while you were there, a dog
tinkled on your toes.
Peed on your shoe.
Sorry about that.
Tinkle toes.
It wasn't me.
Peed on your shoe, though.
Is that why?
Yeah, it was not a cool thing to do.
It was a grimy animal shelter and a dog peed all over me.
Are you kidding me?
What kind of date?
Well, what? You don't like that idea for a date? How is that a date? Because
he's trying to be cute. Are they adopting an animal
to like live together now or what?
They're going to bond over animals. Is he reposing?
Okay, so you didn't like the date. Is that
why you're not calling him back? No,
I'm not a dog. Like I'm a bad
I want to be taken out on a date
like a nice date, not to some shelter.
Are you kidding me?
Okay.
So that's it then?
You just thought the date was bad?
Yeah, I thought the date was horrid.
Okay.
So, okay, if you didn't go on a date that went to an animal shelter,
if you guys went somewhere else, do you think it could have been better?
Of course.
I mean, if someone treats me like the way I'm supposed to be treated
and it's like a nice date, of course I'm going to be nice to someone I call them back.
But she didn't know that, though.
Yeah, it's like a first date, right?
Well, just take a guess.
Would you want, I mean, who wants to go to an animal shelter like a dog and be peed on?
I bet you there's a lot of people that would like to do that.
And then there's also people that wouldn't.
There's people like English Devon who would love to go to an animal shelter.
And then there's people like Alex who are like, hell no.
Just like you're like,
hell no.
I'm a bad b**** too.
So,
I mean,
okay,
so if you didn't go
to the animal shelter
and you went with this dude Ash
to some crazy,
like dinner and a movie.
Crazy.
Would you like that?
Did you like him?
Yeah.
I guess is what I'm asking.
I mean,
he was fine. I was just kind of
distracted by the whole bad date.
She's the one
fine. He's fine.
Well, I don't know what else to ask you, so I'm just
going to go ahead and tell you
that Ash is actually on the phone
listening and would love to talk to you.
Hi, Reese.
Oh, my God. Oh, my god yeah you uh so you you didn't like the shelter huh
hi no i did not like i mean come on like ash of course i didn't like to get like
teed up some like you know mongo who lives in a cage what i mean wait you didn't it didn't
seem like that big of a deal
on the date, and I genuinely thought
you enjoyed your time at the shelter.
Well, I mean, I did not enjoy
it, and, you know, maybe next time
don't act all surprised. Like, don't
surprise someone, first of all, with this, like,
date, and then, like, think that you're
doing them some big f***. Like,
horrible thing. Like, no one's, have you tried this
before? Like, no's going to like it.
No one will ever like it.
No one probably ever has.
Oh, wow.
Oh my God.
All right.
You are just like a completely different person right now as opposed to the girl I met.
I'm kind of shocked there.
And for the record, that's one of my go-to first date spots.
And all the other women who went there had a great time.
Yeah.
Well, I mean, guess what?
I'm not them.
I'm a bad bitch.
Just deal with it.
Wow.
Great.
Well, I have no desire for another date now.
Well, no.
Hey, you don't know that yet.
She hasn't said yes or no.
Let's find out.
Hey, Reese, would you like to go on another date with Ash?
We'll pay for it.
No, not with him.
I'll go on another date.
Who knows?
All right, well, great, because I have no desire either.
So good to go then.
Thank you so much.
I think, you know what?
A lot of times when people don't go out on another date, we're like, hey, that wasn't
a successful one.
They didn't go out again.
But it sounds like you guys are in such agreement that you don't want to ever see each other
again.
I consider this a successful, happy ending.
I think so.
Thumbs up all around.
Good job.
Yeah, I'm super pumped and never have to see you again.
Amazing.
I would love to never see you again either.
All right.
Wow.
Perfect.
I think that actually worked out.
Yeah, it did.
That was nice.
Kind of nice.
Okay, here.
I found a Jack Johnson song.
Oh.
I've never even heard this one.
The one that you think we'll know?
I think you would.
This dude, like, it plays in, like, every grocery store in the world when you're walking through there.
So he's elevator music is what you're saying.
Pretty much, yeah. You go to an
office building that Jack Johnson
is definitely on. So he's
been on somewhere where you've been at.
I don't even know what this song is because I don't know his music
very well. I just know that he's handsome and he's tan
and he lives in Hawaii and he lives a
sweet life. Okay, this song
right here, it's called Upside Down.
Yes.
This is the guy I was talking about.
This is Jack Johnson.
This is actually a banger.
I know.
Actually, every single time
I hear one of the songs,
I'm like, dude, that guy.
I feel like I want to go to Hawaii.
Me too.
That's what I mean.
That dude just exudes
hanging out on the beach in Hawaii and having a velvety voice.
If you told me this was Ash, I'd be like, yep.
Yeah, me too.
All right.
Well, there you go.
Successful first date follow-up and a little bit of Jack Johnson.
