This is an iHeart podcast. On the latest episode of Next Question with me, Katie Couric, I sat down with Jasmine Crockett, Democratic representative of Texas. She's holding out the fork for her party in one of the most conservative states in the union. I think that ultimately who will become the Democratic nominee for president will be someone that has been out there and has shown that they won't allow themselves to be punched and just say thank you. Like, they will punch back. Listen to Next Question with me, Katie Couric, on the iHeart radio app, Apple podcasts, or

First date follow up powered by the Advocates Injury Attorneys online at AdvocatesLaw.com. Matt is on the phone today for a first date follow up and he's getting ghosted by somebody named Bria. So in a minute we're going to call her and see if she'll tell us why she's

ghosting him and maybe get him another date. First, Matt, how long has it been since you heard from Bria? Yeah, you know it's been it's been about a week now I gotta be honest this is the first time I've ever been ghosted so I'm not really sure if that's a long time or not Wow Congratulations I appreciate that. I try to be selective of the idea. A week is a long time.

If you go out with somebody, usually if they like you, you know, maybe a couple of days go by where they don't text you, but they'll get back to you. Have you tried reaching out? I'm hesitant about it just because I want it to be like a single, you know, thoughtful thing. Like not exactly a grand gesture. I don't want to be like a dork about it, but I do want to make sure that it is memorable. I want to make it, you know, and that's the thing.

That's why I'm calling it is because I want you guys to help me out with this. I really don't know what I'm doing. This is totally new territory for me. OK, so you want to get her attention with something more of a hey, how you doing text? Exactly. I want to be. Yeah. Yeah. Much more of a can she is dating with intention and I want to make sure that I am someone who's, uh, you know, intention is worthwhile.

That's cute. So a picture. Okay. How did you meet Brea and Matt? How did you meet her and how was the date? Yeah, we, uh, so we met on hinge and we were talking, you know back and forth for a little bit making sure that you know We really you know how to feel for one another. I saw on hinge her photos Where she was hiking and that showed me that she's really active and she appreciates nature and that's that's all me. I love that

We went to a rooftop For drinks, you know right at sunset. So it was going to have very, very beautiful views. And indeed we got treated to that. That was great. And it was really romantic. There were plants. It seemed kind of an intimate setting. And then, so I'm glad we were there because we started just acting like we were on vacation. So we made up stories for ourselves. We were looking around us at the different couples of different people, making up stories for them. You know, it was a lot of fun. It was it. And then she was a lot of fun.

One of the things that I really appreciate is just how she beams with everything, you know, just big smile, laughing, contagious laughter. At that point, we started about, you know, what we want and goals and what our passions are, what drives us. And, um, and seemed, it really, really seemed to fit. And this is why I'm concerned about the ghost thing, because, you know, I hope she's all right. I hope that I didn't come across too strong. Uh, uh, you know, we, we ended the day with a hug, like a nice tight hug. It was, um, it seemed promising.

And so I want to make sure that everything is kind of, uh, how I thought it was in my head. And then I don't know, maybe, maybe I messed up. I hope I didn't. Well, it sounds like it went really great. For the most part, is there anything that happened that could be why? I mean, you know, I'm, I'm competitive. I'm maybe overly competitive and I asked her if she was seeing other people You know just because she said she was dating with intention But I wanted to know kind of how that went and yes, she did say that she was kind of dating It didn't sound like there was anything serious going on. But maybe I just came across as too intense with how I asked

How did you ask did you reach across the table and grab her hand and stare deep into her eyes and said, are you seeing anybody else? Yes. I might like that. I can't quite remember. So maybe I was in a bit of an altered state of mind. The drinks were flowing that evening.

OK, so that might have contributed to it. Are you crying? I don't remember any crying. I probably would have contributed to it. Are you crying? I don't remember any crying. Probably would have liked that too. Please don't be dating anybody else. Oh man, Matt. We'll see if we can figure it out for you.

We'll play a song, come back and then call her and try to get you another date and find out where you're getting ghosted. Okay? Thank you guys. I appreciate that. All right. We'll play a song, come back, get your first day of follow up next. Just like great shoes, great books take you places. Through unforgettable love stories and into conversations with characters you'll never forget. I think any good romance, it gives me this feeling of like butterflies.

So essentially Republicans came up with a narrative and Democrats decided to play into that. And that only hurt the Democrats. I'm Kitty Couric. Jasmine Crockett, Democratic representative of Texas, is not known for holding back. And our recent chat on Next Question is no exception. But when you hear how she got to where she is, her intensity makes perfect sense. It's just hard to imagine a world where you don't have enough people that care to do right by people. And so that same passion that carried me through as a public defender,

that led me to want to change laws and thinking about the harm that will happen, not just to my constituents, but just generally, like, I carry that weight with me because you've seen it up close. Yeah. Listen to Next Question with me, Katie Cour seen it up close. Yeah. Listen to Next Question with me, Katie Couric on the iHeart radio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

If you're just joining us for today's first date follow up, Matt the advocates injury attorneys online at advocateslaw.com. If you're just joining us for today's first date follow up, Matt is on the phone and he's getting ghosted by Bria. So we're about to call her and see if she'll tell us why she's ghosting him and maybe get him another date. But first, Matt, why don't you catch us up on your situation? Yeah.

Um, Bri and I went on a date and you know, beforehand we met on hinge. I was very attracted to all of her photos. We met up. It seemed like it was going really great. We had a lot of fun just making up stories about ourselves when it came to this fun little game we were playing. But I feel like I really got to know her. I was very, very attracted to her

and she was basically like just sunshine. And so I wanna know what happened with it. Okay, and you think that the reason she might not be calling you back is because you asked if she was dating other people. Maybe. I honestly don't know. And I'm looking for you guys to help me out with this. Okay. Well, here we go. You ready to call her? Please. Let's see what's up. Hello. Hi, man.

Speak to Bria, please. This is she. Hey, Bria. How are you? My name is Jubal and I'm calling from a radio show. It's called the Jubal show. Hi, Bria. I'm Nina.

Also on the show. Hi, and I'm Victoria. Oh, hi. There's a lot of people here. How are you? I'm okay. How are you? I'm good.

Thanks. I'm good. I'm good. I'm good. I'm good. I'm good. I'm good. I'm good. I'm good. I'm good. I'm good. Oh hi, there's a lot of people here. What's up girl? Yes there is. How are you?

Uh huh, I'm okay. How are you? I'm good, thank you for asking. Have you ever listened to the show before? I have. Well, we're calling because we do a segment on the show called the first date follow up where if you go out on a date with somebody and then you ghost them, they can email us to call you and ask why you're ghosting them.

Uh huh. So we got an email about you from somebody. Yeah, okay. Who you ghosting, Brea? Well, I'm guessing, is this Matt? Yes it is. So Matt emailed us and we talked to him a little bit about your date.

He really liked you and he is wondering why you're not calling him back. I mean, it feels kind of weird to say but I just think he's too pretty. You think he's too pretty? I think, yeah. I think, I think he's too pretty and I think he knows he's, he's a, he's a handsome lad and that is, that was a little bit of a turnoff for me. Was it confidence or arrogance?

Well, so like it started off, he just kind of seemed to talk a lot about himself and he seemed to just always be catching his reflection in a mirror or window. Just like seemed very taken with it. And he also was kind of talking about his internet presence and how many followers he has and just repeated that a few times. And I just kind of felt like I wasn't really being paid attention. You know, it's a first date. So I expected some questions about me and he just kind of seemed to be talking about how fit he is and how he's going to start a fitness page.

You know, like I, I know that he, we talked about hiking and like being outdoors and being fit and like, I'm definitely about that, but like I'm also a person and I felt that, yeah, we got to talk about things bigger than internet presence. It sounds like he was trying to impress you. Oh. Doesn't it? Like he showed up with all of his toys and was like, look at this is what I have. Do you like it?

I could see that. I could see that. And, you know, I was trying to ask him about things that, that he was interested in, but I kind of expected him to ask me about some stuff. You got to make a connection on your date. And I feel like you actually have to, you know, like ask questions and sort of be interested. Can I ask you a question? Sorry. Wait, wait, what was that?

Maria, that's Matt. Matt is actually on the other line listening and wants to talk to you. I thought it was just you guys. No, I'm sorry. Matt's here too. Yeah. And I guess he has a question now. I wanted to ask, um, did you have a fun time on our date? Otherwise? Okay. Valid. Um, it was a question about, uh, so I'm going to say 50 50. I mean, we did have fun. Like it was fun pretending like we were on vacation and coming up with all kinds

of stories for the people around us. But you know, it was a date where I was trying to get to know you and I thought you would be trying to get to know me. So anytime I felt like I brought up, you know, bigger topics, you know, I thought it, you just kind of always steered it back to you. So I'm looking. Yeah, there are a couple of I hope they don't come across as just excuses here. First off, I I kind of had maybe a couple

shots before the date to calm my nerves because I was definitely really getting looking forward to getting to know you. Oh. And. Yeah, yeah, of course he did. And I feel like I honestly I do genuinely, Brea, feel like I, you know, I feel like I did actually get to know you, you know, like you're a great listener. And I mean, the work you do with animals is brilliant.

What? I don't work with animals. I'm not quite sure what that is. What were you drinking? I might've had way too much. I had two shots that might've quadrupled. I genuinely though, I, I mean, I really appreciated her energy and I think that she was, she's just sunshine. She's just sunshine in human form. And I, I understand that I

have totally, totally overly concerned about my looks and everything. And that shouldn't be something that I'm worrying about on a first date with my business. I kind of have to be on all times and I should have unwinded. That was one of the reasons I had no shots as well. Um, but humbly, I would love a second date. Can you, could you just tell me what color my eyes are? You're beautiful green eyes. Well, they're blue. Brie, would you like to go on a first date with Matt?

We'll pay for it. We'll pay for it if you want to try to give it another shot. We're in the same place. I know. Were we? Did this happen? It sounds like we need another first date for sure. I need to remember at this time.

Well, if you can promise that, you know, maybe we do an afternoon thing. Maybe we have some coffee. And if we talk about some things a little bit bigger than internet presence, I think maybe. I can agree to that. You said you drive a hard bargain, but those are agreeable terms Drea I am so sorry that Clearly I was in a different place in time. I was not listening to a single or you said And I really appreciate it. Yep. You know what this this next one. I'm going to listen to everything

I'm gonna let you do the talking. Let's go with that. How? Well, I do like a person who can own their mistakes. And, you know, we're not always going to be perfect every time. So, yeah. Cool. Well, congratulations, Matt. You got a date with Bria for the first time ever.

I'm about as impressed as you guys are over there. Bria with the blue eyes. I'm about to. That's cute. From the first time ever. I'm not as impressed as you guys are, really. Rhea with the blue eyes. I'm not as good as my lucky stars. Jubal's first date follow-up. On the latest episode of Next Question with me, Katie Couric, I sat down with Jasmine Crockett, Democratic representative of Texas.
