Connor thought he found something rare—an actually fun first date. He and Gia went on a scavenger hunt through an art museum, complete with riddles, playful banter, and shared earbuds. Connor was captivated by her wit, charm, and the way her mind worked. But after a week of silence, he reached out to The Jubal Show for answers.

Turns out, while Connor saw romance, Gia saw chaos. From bad British accents to climbing on fountains and debating modern art with a docent, Connor's enthusiasm came off more like a one-man improv show than a romantic date. But can espresso and chamomile actually balance each other out?

Listen to find out if Gia gives this over-caffeinated connection one more shot—or sends him back to the friend zone with no foam.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
First Date follow Up powered by the Advocates Injury Attorneys
online at Advocateslaw dot com.

Speaker 2 (00:07):
Connor is on the phone today for a first day
follow up and he's getting ghosted by a woman named
Gso 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. But first we have to find out
about the date. Connor, how long has it been since
you talked to you.

Speaker 3 (00:22):
It's been a little over a week, and I've I've
tried everything. I've tried, calling, texting, you know the works.

Speaker 4 (00:28):
Okay, Well, that's a frustrating feeling. Maybe she lost her phone.

Speaker 3 (00:34):
That would be a good, excellent right, you be hopeful.

Speaker 5 (00:38):
Why don't you tell us about your date?

Speaker 3 (00:41):
Okay? So we did something that's I don't know, I
guess it's a little quirky. It was a scavenger hunt
at the Art Museum downtown. And basically, you like download
this app, right, and it gives you all these clues
and like riddles to solve, and you basically like run
around finding stuff, like, you know, the ugliest statue or

(01:03):
the most romantic painting. And we were like when we started,
I was like, you know, do you ever watch like
Amazing Race or any of those like reality shows. And
she was like, yeah, let's yeah, I love those. I
love that stuff. So I was like me too, Let's
like pretend we're on one of those. So I don't know,
there was like a lot of playful banter conversation. Some

(01:24):
of those conversations got like pretty deep, and we were
like it felt very like easy and intimate because we
were doing things like we were sharing our earbuds to
listen to the audio tour and we were like, we
kept making fun of how the like narrator sounded very dramatic,
So I don't know, we were just having fun, you know, yeah.

Speaker 5 (01:44):
And it seemed like she was super into it too.

Speaker 3 (01:47):
Oh totally. It was easy. We were it. To me,
it was like we were in our own bubble. Like
even at one point, like we sat we were sitting
and we found this like weird abstract sculpture that was
on the like scavenger hunt, and we just sat there
and before I knew it, I looked at my watch
and forty minutes had passed. We had just been like

(02:08):
talking and I don't know, like you know that kind
of when something like that happens. It just feels like
you clicked and it doesn't happen that much. So I
really felt like we clicked.

Speaker 6 (02:17):
Yeah, okay, So why do you think you're getting ghosted?

Speaker 3 (02:21):
Well, that's it. I don't know, because I guess I've
never had a date that I would actually describe as
like fun. I feel like I meet a girl, I
go out on like the obligatory coffee date. We have
small talk, or there's like an awkward dinner where you're wondering,
oh am I paying for this? Or we splitting it

(02:42):
like it's just so awkward. And this was not any
of that. It's kind of like we were I don't know,
we were on like a little adventure, you know.

Speaker 6 (02:52):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (02:53):
And I think the part that was like I'm not
trying to sound corny or anything, but like the part
that was most attractive is that I got to see
her brain at work, you know, like how she saws
stuff and like how she thinks and how she approaches
the world. And I was just very very attracted by
what I saw.

Speaker 5 (03:12):
Yeah, you're into her, into her?

Speaker 6 (03:18):
I am.

Speaker 3 (03:18):
It's weird, Like she even when she even made this
super dry joke about modern art that like no one
else would have caught and I to this like a
week later, I'm thinking about it every single day, Like
the joke like replays in my head, and I'm like,
I don't know, it's just so smart, you know, you
don't you don't run into someone who's like as attractive
but also so interesting and so easy to have fun with.

Speaker 5 (03:41):
Yeah, are you smart too?

Speaker 4 (03:43):
Because I mean, if we're thinking about what could have
gone wrong, I don't know if she's super intellectual and
maybe you can't think of anything, like there weren't even
any awkward moments.

Speaker 3 (03:54):
I didn't have any, and like I'd like to think
that I'm pretty smart, which is why I'm always looking
for intelligence as like a part of the package. So no,
I mean, I don't think that would be it. I
would be pretty surprised if she didn't find like, you know,
she didn't feel like I was keeping up.

Speaker 2 (04:11):
Okay, well we'll see if we can figure it out
for you. Then we'll play a song, come back call
her and see if she'll tell us why she's ghosting
you or if you lost her phone.

Speaker 6 (04:19):
Yeah, and then we're never to get you a second date.

Speaker 3 (04:22):
Okay, thanks. I would appreciate that.

Speaker 2 (04:24):
All right, we'll play a song come back and get
your first date follow up next.

Speaker 1 (04:28):
First date follow up powered by the Advocates Injury Attorneys
online at Advocateslaw dot com.

Speaker 2 (04:35):
Right in the middle of your first date follow Up
and if you're just joining us, Connor is on the
phone and Connor is getting ghosted by a woman named Giso.
We're about to call her and see if she'll tell
us the reason she's ghosting him and maybe get him
a second date. But first, Connor, why don't you break
down your date again real quick with you?

Speaker 3 (04:51):
Yeah? It was perfect at least on my end, and
I thought she had fune. We went to the Art
Museum downtown. We like downloaded this app where you can
go on scavenger hunt and solve riddles and like find
different pieces of art, and it was it was everything
I looked for and to date, it was fun, it
was easy to talk to her. We totally clicked, and yeah,

(05:12):
I just really feel like I got a glimpse into
not only like not only her, but like how her
brain works, which, like I said, sounds kind of corny,
But I am really into this girl, So I'm really
hoping that there's some I hope there's some fluke that
I was asked to Why she's not like responding to me?

Speaker 6 (05:29):
Okay? Are you ready for us to call her?

Speaker 3 (05:32):
As ready as I'll ever be?

Speaker 6 (05:33):
All right, here we go, Hello him, I speak to you. Please?

Speaker 7 (06:05):
Well okay, I don't remember submitting to anything.

Speaker 8 (06:08):
But.

Speaker 2 (06:10):
Well I don't think you did. But we did get
an email about you from somebody who listens to the show.
That's why we're on the shoe. Oh cool, okay, you
have the most chill attitude. Well, we do a segment
on the show that's called the First Date follow Up.
That's where if you go out on a date with
somebody and then you end up ghosting them, that person

(06:32):
can help.

Speaker 6 (06:32):
Us call you to ask us why you're ghosting them?

Speaker 5 (06:36):
Who are you ghosting?

Speaker 6 (06:37):
So Connor, Yes, it is about Connor.

Speaker 2 (06:42):
He said that he really liked you, thought your date
was great, and it's confused that it's been you know,
over a week now and you haven't responded to him.

Speaker 6 (06:49):
Do you mind telling us why?

Speaker 7 (06:51):
Yeah? Well, oh my goodness. The date was fun, like
surprisingly fun. He's you know, clever and charming, but also
he was just a.

Speaker 6 (07:03):
Lot a lot What does that mean?

Speaker 7 (07:06):
Well, you know how people can just like there's a
line of like too much sometimes. At first we were
clicking and like I thought it was, you know, cute,
how into the scavenger he wasn't, you know, I love
like interactive things and games and everything, but he kept
making like literally everything into a bit just the whole time,

(07:26):
like narrating the date in a god the worst fake
British accent I've ever heard. You know, it's cute the
first time, but not like you know, an hour later,
and then you know, trying to solve clues that like
weren't even you know, part of the game, and you know,
high fiving strangers like like not everyone listen to to

(07:46):
this dude, you know, yeah, I mean that's kind.

Speaker 5 (07:51):
Of a warm energy, you.

Speaker 7 (07:52):
Know, yeah, I mean like like this old guy just
kind of looked at him weird, which actually was pretty funny.
But then he like he climbed up on a fountain
to like look for another clue.

Speaker 3 (08:04):
I don't know.

Speaker 7 (08:05):
It set off his emotional arm and this was then
sing like a docent uh huh yeah, yeah, like he
got into like an argument with him and like they
were starting to like call security.

Speaker 3 (08:20):
He was arguing.

Speaker 7 (08:21):
About whether this, like you know, I've seen it in
different TV shows where it's like a banana or a
fire extinguisher or something just like on the wall, whether
that counts as art, you know, like having this debate
about modern art. And it was just like I feel
like those two tables just kind of like explain it
the best. It was just like chaotic energy, and I
was just like at first I was excited, but but

(08:44):
then by the end, I was just exhausted. Wait.

Speaker 3 (08:47):
Wait, that's why you got to me because I was
too fun.

Speaker 9 (08:55):
You guys didn't she was on here, you didn't.

Speaker 3 (08:58):
You didn't say anything. I mean you were laughing and
we were having a really good time. We're having fun.

Speaker 7 (09:05):
We were, But then I also laugh when I'm stressed,
like I'm nervous, you know, like I'm not going to
tell someone that I barely know like how to not
act when they're having fun. And yeah, some of it
was fun and funny, but then I was just like,
by the end of it, I didn't feel safe leaving
you on supervised in public.

Speaker 9 (09:26):
I feel like you should have had one of those
bad beliefs. Listen. Yeah, I wasn't trying to be extra.
I just I really liked you.

Speaker 3 (09:37):
I was nervous, so I leaned into the jokes because
it felt easier than like being awkward or quiet or
like too serious.

Speaker 7 (09:46):
I get that. However, it's like okay to be quiet
for a little bit in a museum, you know, there
wasn't any room for just like being and like stopping
and observing. It was just like onto the next, on
to the next. It was like being stuck in an improv.

Speaker 3 (10:00):
Oh well, look, I know I can be a lot,
but but like on that date, I swear I was
not putting on a show. I was genuinely having one
of the best dates I've ever had in my life.
And I was just so surprised and it was so
refreshing that you were so smart and funny, and you
you made art to me feel like less pretentious. So

(10:20):
I just didn't want it to end.

Speaker 5 (10:22):
Geah, he loves your brain.

Speaker 3 (10:25):
Okay, Well, that's really sweet.

Speaker 7 (10:27):
Actually, thank you.

Speaker 3 (10:31):
I mean, listen, I'm not looking for you to change
your vibe or anything. Like if you're Camra Mail, that's great,
But I don't know Camma Mail and Espresso Espresso can
work together, balance through thatselves, each other out or whatever.

Speaker 5 (10:44):
Right, so you're Espresso.

Speaker 8 (10:50):
I mean, I do like lavender more than cam meal.
But what you want to be a lot like yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly.
See I can be a whole day macchiato if you'll
let me.

Speaker 2 (11:03):
What do you think, Geo, you want to let him
be a macchiato? Would you go on another date with.

Speaker 7 (11:12):
Okay?

Speaker 3 (11:13):
Let me think. I appreciate the honesty.

Speaker 8 (11:15):
I do.

Speaker 7 (11:17):
I did have a good time, minus apart where I
thought we were going to get a band from the museum.

Speaker 3 (11:20):
Forever there's coming up. I will not climb on fountains.
I will not climb on fountains. That's where I will.
I will not get in fights with the dose and
and there will be no fake accents and requested.

Speaker 7 (11:36):
It like maybe their next date is maybe signing up
for an improv show or something.

Speaker 3 (11:42):
I mean, I think you should give we should give
it one more shot.

Speaker 7 (11:46):
Yeah you will, you will yeah, because even today maybe
last Yay.

Speaker 3 (11:52):
All right, sweet, this is awesome. Oh yes, this is
exactly how I hope this would go. This is great.

those lattes and play the next thing.
