But first, Sophie, how are you hi?

Speaker 4 (00:22):
I'm I'm good, all things considered.

Speaker 3 (00:25):
Well, how long has it been since you heard from Chris.

Speaker 4 (00:28):
It's been about two weeks now, so a good chunk
of time.

Speaker 3 (00:31):
Honestly, have you been trying to get a hold of it?

Speaker 5 (00:35):
I was, but then I didn't want to seem crazy,
so I kind of I kind of tapered off, and
now I'm texting you guys.

Speaker 4 (00:41):
They're calling you guys.

Speaker 3 (00:43):
Okay, great, Well let's talk about it. How did you
meet Chris?

Speaker 5 (00:45):
Like?

How is your date?

Speaker 5 (00:48):
So?

Speaker 4 (00:48):
Everything was really great?

Speaker 5 (00:49):
I mean he The only weird thing is he is
best friends with my ex and we matched on hinge
and I kind of was like, and I saw him
and I've always thought he was really cute, and I
sky but you know, I ended up swiping on him
just to see. It's like a social experiment. We ended
up matching, so yeah, and I was like, we were like, ha,

(01:10):
this is so weird. But we really hit it off
and we ended up moving off of hinge and you know,
texting phone calls, and then about two weeks ago we
actually went on a first date.

Speaker 2 (01:20):
Okay, and he's your friend's best friend.

Speaker 3 (01:25):
Best friend.

Speaker 1 (01:26):
Yeah, so you knew him before then while you were
with your ex, I knew who he was.

Speaker 5 (01:31):
Yeah, I'd know him for a bit, like we'd always
been friendly, and it was never it was like he
was just you know, my ex was good friend and
so I saw him quite a bit, but it was
never anything romantic.

Speaker 3 (01:41):
Did you guys talk about that before you decided to
go on a date.

Speaker 5 (01:44):
Yeah, we definitely, like you know, talked about the elephant
in the room and we were like, is this really weird?

Speaker 4 (01:49):
Is this like messed up? And we were like no,
we were adults, like we can we can do this.
Why don't we go on a date and see if
it is really weird? So that's what we decided to do.

Speaker 3 (02:00):
Well, how did it go?

Speaker 5 (02:02):
It was honestly, like one of the best first days
I've ever had. We went to this arcade and we
were playing games and we got wings and shots and
I just like felt like a kid again.

Speaker 4 (02:15):
And I mean not I.

Speaker 5 (02:16):
Was drinking shots as a kid, but you know, right
right right, I got it, Yeah, exactly.

Speaker 4 (02:23):
Sugar. Sugar you know was the drug at that time.

Speaker 5 (02:26):
But yeah, I mean, and then we kissed at the
end of the night and was actually really hot.

Speaker 4 (02:31):
And but then he was like, I don't know, I
just feel really weird about Kyle. That's my act. I'm
gonna I'm.

Speaker 5 (02:37):
Gonna call him and just like let him know. And
I was like, I was kind of resistant, honestly. I
was like, I don't think you need to do that,
but go ahead, like go for it. And he was like, Okay,
I'm going to. And I guess, you know, something must
have happened in that conversation because everything was great. And
then he said he was gonna call Kyle and has
not responded to my text my calls, has completely ghosted me.

Speaker 2 (03:00):
Anything else you can think of other than your ex's
best friends with.

Speaker 4 (03:04):
Them, I mean, I think that's a pretty big thing.

Speaker 5 (03:06):
So I don't know, I don't think anything else happened,
Like it was a really great date, so something must
have happened in that conversation and it yeah, sick to
my stomach.

Speaker 1 (03:14):
Well, how would that conversation even go? Like, I don't
even know how I would feel if like my friend
came to me was like, hey, I'm dating your exit.

Speaker 3 (03:20):
Is that okay? How would you handle that? Jubile?

Speaker 2 (03:24):
Oh, I'd be fine with it, But then again, that's
just how I am. I'd be like, yeah, cool or whatever,
you know, unless unless it was an ex I was like, dude, like.

Speaker 1 (03:33):
Oh, Sophie, do you got some something to tell us
about your last relationship?

Speaker 4 (03:39):
Oh? No, I really don't.

Speaker 5 (03:41):
I yeah, I'm trying to think like it wasn't a
great breakup.

Speaker 4 (03:45):
It was fairly amicable.

Speaker 5 (03:46):
And it was a while ago, Like you know, I
don't really have any hard feelings towards him, Like it's.

Speaker 2 (03:51):
Yeah, okay, Well we'll see if we can figure out
for you a play on come back and then call
him and see if it tells why he's ghosting you
and maybe get you another data.

Speaker 4 (03:59):
Right, that sounds great?

Speaker 2 (04:00):

If you're just joining us, Sophie is on the phone
and she's getting ghosted by a guy named Chris. So
in a second we're gonna call him and see if
he'll tell us why he's ghost singer and maybe get

Speaker 5 (04:22):
I mean it was a really great day because it
was really fun, really hot.

Speaker 4 (04:27):
But he is dating.

Speaker 5 (04:29):
I mean he is my, you know, ex's best friend,
so he's grandmas gonna call him, give him my heads
up because he's my friend. And after that, I guess
I've just not heard from him in two weeks, so something.

Speaker 3 (04:40):
Must have happened in that conversation.

Speaker 4 (04:43):
Yeah, yeah, all right.

Speaker 3 (04:44):
Probably told him not to see you, right, Yeah, well
let's see. Are you ready for us to call him?

Speaker 4 (04:50):
Yes, but I'm also so scared.

Speaker 3 (04:52):
Okay, here we go. Hello him me, I speak to Chris. Please.
This is Chris, Chris, what's up? How are you? This

(05:12):
is Jewbel. I'm from a radio show called The Jebel Show. Yeah, Hi, Chris,
I'm Nina also on the show. Hi, and I'm Victoria.

Speaker 6 (05:19):
Okay, we're in a radio group chat or something pretty much.

Speaker 3 (05:24):
Yeah, have you ever listened to the show before?

Speaker 6 (05:26):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (05:26):
I have. Well, have you ever heard a first A
follow Up before?

Speaker 6 (05:29):
Uh? Yeah, I was.

Speaker 7 (05:31):
I was wondering why I was calling me because I'm like,
I've heard the show, but I didn't fill out any
like you know, contest.

Speaker 2 (05:38):
Any somebody emailed us about you, because the first A
Followup is a segment where if we go out on
a day with somebody and then you end up ghosting them,
they can email us to get you on the phone
and ask why you're ghosting them. And we got an
email about you. Do you know who would be from?

Speaker 6 (05:50):
I'm probably.

Speaker 2 (05:54):
It's probably Sophie, Right, is Sophie you want to tell
us why you're ghost there?

Speaker 8 (06:01):
I mean, well, I don't know what she told you,
but I mean we went out, but she's we matched
up online, and long story short, she dated my best.

Speaker 6 (06:15):
Friend for quite some time. They broke up.

Speaker 8 (06:18):
I wouldn't want somebody going out one of my buddies
going out with my ex, right, But I thought, okay, well,
you know, Kyle's not like me.

Speaker 7 (06:25):
Kyle's probably cool with it. So we went out and
and it was everything was great, but just at the
end of the night, I just, you know, felt like, man,
I really need to say something to Kyle just to
make sure.

Speaker 6 (06:38):
So called him up, and I know what I thought.
Kyle was like, yeah, go ahead, do whatever you want,
help myself.

Speaker 7 (06:47):
He seemed to not have a problem with it, but
he didn't tell me that our other buddy.

Speaker 6 (06:54):
Robbie ran into Sophie recently and took her home that night.

Speaker 7 (07:01):
So so now like I'm just you know, that's that's
a that's a little too much. Like I know, Kyle's
cool and I can deal with that, but if she's
like if she's trying to work her way through her
crew to get back at Kyle, I don't know what's
going on.

Speaker 6 (07:13):
So I just I just kind of stepped back.

Speaker 1 (07:15):
Okay, did you think to ask her about that or
you're just like now I'm out.

Speaker 8 (07:20):
No, Just at that point, I'm like, look, I don't know,
I don't even know what the situation was.

Speaker 6 (07:24):
I'm not sure if she's like.

Speaker 7 (07:26):
Purposely trying to get with with Kyle's buddies or or
or what the deal is.

Speaker 6 (07:31):
But I'm just like, now, that's that's two of my
friends there. She's been with I just.

Speaker 2 (07:37):
Okay, well, thank you for being honest with us. And
she's also been with us. Actually this whole time, she's
on the phone to you.

Speaker 6 (07:47):
Oh well you didn't tell me that.

Speaker 3 (07:49):
Sorry about that? Forgot about that part, Sophie.

Speaker 4 (07:53):
Yeah, what what the hell? Like, that's not that's not
true at all.

Speaker 5 (07:58):
That's yeah, you could have asked me, because I would
have told you right then and there.

Speaker 4 (08:01):
That's a complete lie.

Speaker 6 (08:03):
That's not that's not true. You didn't go home with
Robbie together, Nyton. I mean, why why would Kyle lie?
Why would Robbie lie? I mean, we wheel each other
since we were a kids. They're not gonna lie to me.

Speaker 5 (08:13):
Yeah, well, I think Kyle. This is just showing how
manipulative and patrolling Kyle can be. Because yeah, Robbie did
take me home. It was like right after the breakup.
I was definitely a mess, Like I was like crying,
I was wasted. Robbie was at the same bar as me,
and yeah, he did take me home to my own house.

Speaker 4 (08:33):
We didn't do anything. He just he gave me a
ride because I should not have been driving in that state.
So like that was yeah, it was that's a complete lie.
And it really kind of pisses me off. Honestly, I think.

Speaker 3 (08:44):
You should have mentioned that if he didn't. Saying you
took a girl home is very different than oh, I
took a guy home to her to her house and
dropped her off.

Speaker 4 (08:54):
He meant to say it like that.

Speaker 5 (08:55):
He meant to say it like that, I know Kyle,
and like that is that's just really frustrating.

Speaker 3 (09:02):
So like he would say that knowing what the truth was,
but was just trying to plant that's actually twist the
word there.

Speaker 1 (09:09):
But Sophie, are you sure Robbie did, like Robbie come
in your house, Like was there anything, did he make
any moves on you? Or was it just completely innocent?

Speaker 5 (09:18):
It will call Robbie right now and ask him, like, yeah,
he's definitely happened.

Speaker 6 (09:24):
So I'm sure that.

Speaker 8 (09:26):
When Robbie told Kyle that he took you home, Kyle
just naturally assumed that Robbie's a player.

Speaker 6 (09:32):
He's a dog. That's what he does. He chases honey's
like it's his job.

Speaker 7 (09:37):
So right, like we just assumed that if Robbie's with
a girl, he's he's gone there, right, That's how that's
how he is has been since we were kids, So
Kyle might have actually thought something hooked up. But I'm
not going to say that if Kyle knew otherwise, he
wouldn't still try to maybe make it seem that way.

Speaker 6 (09:55):
That is kind of how it can be a real
jerk like that.

Speaker 8 (09:58):
Sometimes.

Speaker 6 (09:58):
I'm not going to argue.

Speaker 4 (09:59):
I mean, yeah, there you go.

Speaker 5 (10:01):
I'm just gonna say, wow, you are really in Kyle's
corner here, why don't you two dates?

Speaker 4 (10:05):
Like you're very much like defending him.

Speaker 6 (10:09):
I yeah, of course we've been We've been boys.

Speaker 4 (10:12):
Since school, of course. But you could have called me.

Speaker 5 (10:17):
You could have called me your text me been like
hey I heard this, and I would have immediately told you.
I guess now I'm really hurt that you just sort
of assumed the worst of me, Like I'm like trying
to get through the friend group.

Speaker 4 (10:29):
I almost didn't even you know, swipe right on you like.

Speaker 5 (10:32):
I almost you know, for I like I because I
didn't want to have that impression. Now at this point,
I'm just like very upset and I and how I'm
giving you a second chance. I thought you were different
and we both know. Robbie kind of is like, yeah,
I took her home and sort of like, let's that
sort of innuendo sit there. And I think Kyle knows
that too, So I think the two kind of were

(10:54):
it just worked to his advantage.

Speaker 4 (10:56):
Is sort of why do you and be a little
manipulative about that? And yeah, I mean we all know.
Robbi's like, oh yeah, it's a her home. It's a
her home.

Speaker 5 (11:03):
We're like ha ha okay, like we made like a
drinking game about it at one point.

Speaker 6 (11:07):
I think, so I'm.

Speaker 7 (11:09):
Gonna say you you know as well as I do
that when Robbie is with a girl, that that's pretty
much what happens.

Speaker 6 (11:15):
That's how it rolls.

Speaker 5 (11:15):
So I mean like it sounds like you're really in
a Robbie because it sounds like, you know, you couldn't
do anything except sleep with him because he's just such
a he's just so irresistible.

Speaker 7 (11:28):
Well yeah, I mean I don't even know how to
respond to that, Honestly, I'm not. I mean, whatever, I mean,
that's that's fine. Maybe I will hook up with Robbie.
He's probably a better Tischer than you were.

Speaker 6 (11:39):
Anyway.

Speaker 2 (11:40):
Oh wow, Well, Chris, would you like to go with
Sophie on another day? We'll pay for it.

Speaker 6 (11:44):
No, I don't think so. I don't think so at all.

Speaker 4 (11:47):
Yeah, yeah, I'm not. I'm not shutting any tears for
the Swan.

Speaker 3 (11:51):
So at least you found out why you're getting ghosted.

Speaker 5 (11:54):
Yeah, hey, closure is I want to closure either way,
so I'm not not mad about that.

Speaker 3 (11:59):
Maybe, thank God, stay away from that group.

Speaker 5 (12:02):
Yeah, yeah, I think I'm done all right.

Speaker 4 (12:06):
We'll make sure to give you know, Robbie another kiss
for me. Await I never kissed him. Juble's first date
