I'm one of the hottest people of all time, though,

(00:45):
wasn't it. That's what Urban Dictionary says about Fred Fred's
show is you pointed something out this week?

Speaker 3 (00:52):
What it is?

Speaker 2 (00:53):
There's a there's an old school phrase that you heard
this week, and you want to know why why it's
not more commonplace?

Speaker 1 (01:01):
Yes?

Speaker 2 (01:01):
In the nomenclature, m h, yeah, you heard me, I
said nomenclature.

Speaker 3 (01:06):
Who's Norman Siri? What's Norman Clay?

Speaker 2 (01:09):
Norman so what's the old school phrase that you want
to hear you want it back?

Speaker 4 (01:16):
Yeah, this like whoever came up with this really did
their biggest one. Like it just hits so different when
somebody says it. The email read for crying out loud,
and I like sat back in my chair like, you
know what. Hell yeah, for crying out loud? Like why
would they do that?

Speaker 3 (01:33):
And so I think we need to put a little
more respect on that term.

Speaker 2 (01:36):
Good morning. Thanks for having us on the radio, on
the iHeart app Live and anytime search for the Fresh
Show on demand. You went to a baby shower, and
I want to know, I want to know from everybody,
what is the most ridiculous thing that you've ever seen
on a registry of any kind? And did somebody buy it?
Like over the weekend I saw dude and he was kidding.
It was his wedding registry and he put a seven

(01:58):
hundred dollars like millennium foulc in lego set all the
way at the bottom. He was kidding. I guess, because
you know, you go through. I've never done this, but
I guess you go through and you you can either
select stuff online or go in the store and scan
or whatever, and he was kidding and he was just like,
I don't know him. And somebody bought it, showed up
in his house and he was like, you know, so
seven hundred dollars a thing. I'm sure that plates or

(02:19):
place mats are you know, a kitchen aid mixer something
would have been appreciated by whoever did the registry, but no,
he got his lego set. It was very excited. But
your friend, this is outrageous.

Speaker 5 (02:32):
Yeah, so I have sort of three baby showers going
on at once, so I could basically see, you know,
the difference in what my friends are putting on their registries.
One of my friends put after Care for Herself on there,
which I absolutely love. I think that more moms should
do that, just some you know, supplements and stuff that
will help with postpartum and I thought that was really
cool to see. And one of my other friends, who

(02:55):
you know what my mom always told me since I
was a little asked for what you need, people can
always say no.

Speaker 3 (02:59):
She may or may not have put a.

Speaker 5 (03:01):
Two thousand dollars rug for the baby's nursery on her registry.

Speaker 3 (03:05):
If you know her, you know she likes the finer.

Speaker 2 (03:07):
Things in like a two thousand dollars rug theory, like
multiple people could go in on that.

Speaker 3 (03:14):
I guess multiple, multiple, multiple, multiple.

Speaker 2 (03:17):
Because it would be the average you would spend on it.
Maybe a couple hundred bucks for a good friend. Yeah,
for a registry, for a gift off of a registry. Yeah,
so you know, ten people can go in and buy
you a rug. Yes, for sure, get out of here,
that's great, for sure.

Speaker 5 (03:29):
She also had and I didn't know this, but she
had this adorable little bougie outfit on there from north Strum,
which I of course bought for the baby comes with
a matching suitcase. And she told me that that's what
the baby's going to be taken home. And it's all cashmeir,
It's beautiful.

Speaker 3 (03:41):
Everything goes together. However, my other friends who.

Speaker 5 (03:44):
Have already taken babies home from the hospital goes, that's
gonna be covered in pooper pee, Like you don't need
to have like an aesthetic to go home.

Speaker 3 (03:50):
And like my friend was like, I think I found
a hat and found a onesie that someone gave me.

Speaker 5 (03:55):
But hey, listen, however, you want to bring your baby home,
go for it.

Speaker 2 (04:00):
Know what Polly were when I first met her but
I remember it was during COVID we couldn't go to
the hospital, so we're all at my sister's house and
she comes home and of course, you know, she's wearing
big comfies and a diaper and whatever else you have
to wear her and basically says, here, enhands me. I
don't know what she was wearing, and probably whatever they
get for. I don't think at that point there was
you know, too much pomp and circumstance. But here, here's

(04:21):
your niece hands I'm like, oh okay. And then you know,
I mean, at that point, it's exhaustion and pain and like,
oh now I have to do this. That must be
a weird thing, Paulina is because I mean, in much
smaller ways I can relate to this. But you know,
there's all this anticipation, like baby's coming, babies coming, baby's coming,
and you're so excited and it's you know whatever, but

(04:42):
you're not having a parent yet. And then all of
a sudden, baby comes out and they handed to you,
and you're all the emotion. I get to meet my
child and you're crying, you're happy, and maybe you take
a little nap, But when did it hit you like, oh,
I this kid is like mine forever, and I have
now that all the fun was fun, but now I
have to actually raise the child.

Speaker 3 (04:59):
Yeah, now she has stay and then we got to
do this when you hit.

Speaker 2 (05:02):
You all at once, or did did?

Speaker 1 (05:03):
You?

Speaker 2 (05:03):
Sort of always have that perspective.

Speaker 6 (05:05):
So I gave birth to her. No, it like took
a minute, but I gave birth to her like what
it was like eleven a m so like, which is
kind of funny because like I always thought birds happened
like the middle of the night or like really early
in the morning.

Speaker 2 (05:19):
Yeah, and then it's like, just go on with your day.

Speaker 6 (05:21):
And they moved us to a different room and then
the nurses like I'll be back, and I was like,
what do you mean I'll be back, because.

Speaker 3 (05:26):
You're not saying like you know what I mean.

Speaker 6 (05:28):
So then that freaks you while because then you're all
sitting there in silence with a child, the human baby,
just right there in her little her little movable you know,
crib thing.

Speaker 3 (05:37):
And then I'm like wow, like we really got to
do this thing.

Speaker 6 (05:39):
And then yeah, she'll you know, he's got a feed her,
do all these things, and you're.

Speaker 2 (05:42):
Like wow, it is kind of funny because you really
never hear about anybody like everyone seems to have a crazy, like,
you know, a crazy birth story. I was born in
Boston and it was, of course, you know, snowy and
early in the morning, three in the morning, and you
know the night We're right right. No one's never like,
yeah it was he was born. It was like eighty
degrees and it was noone this noon, noontime exactly. I

(06:05):
guess people who plan their c sections you can do that.
You could be like, I, let's do it on Tuesday,
run two. That sounds good, you know, But otherwise I
feel like everyone's story is all you know. And then
we had to it was an emergency and I had
to run a bunch of red lot. No one's like, yeah,
we just casually strolled over there and had a nice
baby run three. Yeah, you know, just whatever. You know.

(06:27):
Good morning, how you.

Speaker 3 (06:28):
Doing, Good morning?

Speaker 7 (06:30):
Are you guys?

Speaker 4 (06:30):
I love you guys.

Speaker 7 (06:31):
Oh my god, I can't believe on here.

Speaker 2 (06:33):
Well thank you, No, Ed, we we can believe it.
Believe it. It's happening to you right now. This is
the moment, this is your moment. So you what did
you put on your registry? This is a baby registry.

Speaker 7 (06:43):
No, this was actually my wedding registry, and it was
a five hundred dollars diason it's a second twenty nineteen
and then a three hundred dollars comforter, which I was
in shock that we actually got but found out it
was my mother in law that bought it.

Speaker 2 (06:56):
Okay, well that is I mean it's nice, you may
as well. I mean the worst case is nobody buys anything.
Nobody buys it right right.

Speaker 7 (07:03):
Exactly, And we were shocked that we got it.

Speaker 3 (07:05):
I mean the dyfon was kind of like, okay.

Speaker 7 (07:07):
We're greeting married, but like the three hundred dollars comforter,
what did we need that for?

Speaker 3 (07:10):
It was a joke putting it on our registry.

Speaker 2 (07:13):
So when you do this, do you like say, Okay,
I'm going to put some cheap stuff, and then I'm
going to put some like middle stuff, and then let's
go for a couple high end items and see if
we get them. Yeah.

Speaker 7 (07:23):
Absolutely, you kind of just go scan crazy when you
go in there.

Speaker 2 (07:26):
Okay, because I get that, but like if everything I
wouldn't be offended if you had a two thousand dollars rug,
But then a bunch of reasonable stuff. I mean, okay,
so what you tried it? You know, you try your
five hundred dollars dition, you tried it, you got it,
good for you. But like if everything we're five hundred
dollars and more, I'd be like, who do you think
we are?

Speaker 8 (07:42):
Like?

Speaker 2 (07:42):
Who do you think you do? You know the people
that did? Have you met any of these people that
you're sending stuff out to? You know? Oh that's too funny?

Speaker 7 (07:50):
Yeah, no, absolutely, people can get crazy with those.

Speaker 2 (07:53):
Yeah, Sarah, thank you for listening. Have a great day.
Oh you well, love you guys, I love you too. Yeah,
I mean I guess was the other stuff reasonable or
was it all kind of high end?

Speaker 1 (08:03):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (08:03):
There was all price points and like the baby list
or whatever, lets you choose by price points.

Speaker 2 (08:07):
The freend Show. Good morning, Thank you so much for
waking up with I would agree with this, but your
self proclaimed taste in music, it's probably the quality of
yourself that you are proudest of. That's probably the thing
about you that I hear the most.

Speaker 5 (08:18):
Well, not necessarily taste, but yeah, around music, I like
to curate playlists for specific occasions, you know what I mean?

Speaker 2 (08:26):
Yeah, I mean We've given you the ox cord before
in the car, and I've been very impressed with your skills.

Speaker 3 (08:30):
Thank you.

Speaker 2 (08:30):
I've told you this before though, Yeah, I've communicated this.
This is nothing new.

Speaker 5 (08:33):
I knew my audience, so I believe cores the course.
Breathless was the first thing I've think you were screaming.

Speaker 2 (08:39):
Now, that's just a deep cut and when that comes on,
it's just unbelievable that somebody else would Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 3 (08:44):
You me and Jason Moore scream singing. I don't know
where we were going or coming bop.

Speaker 2 (08:48):
Yeah, I'm not old enough for this, but I uh
Brady a colleague of ours, colleague co war rock friend
the other day is Ray and he likes the yacht
rock like he likes like yah rock, like sixties seventies
and I don't mind it, but that's not my My
wheelhouse is nineties pop, nineties two thousands pop. And I
think the reason is is because that's what I grew

(09:09):
up with. And I've said this a million times. I
think that whatever music you'd like the most has some
tie to your upbringing. I believe this. Yeah, your mom
played at, your dad played at your grandparents played it. Yes,
you know, so for a lot of people was you know,
I grew up in the nineties, so for a lot
of people, it was like Beatles and you know, sixties

(09:29):
seventies music because that's what their parents listened to. And
then as they were growing up that stuff. And my
parents didn't because my father was in radio and contemporary radio,
so like we listened to pop music. So like whatever
I listened to was whatever was current at the time.
I have like almost no appreciation for what happened before
nineteen eighty. I don't even know. I really don't even know. Well,
motown because that's what they grew up with.

Speaker 3 (09:50):
That was my dad. Yeah, Motown is amazing. I love
listening to that still does d.

Speaker 2 (09:55):
And like in our house, it was Whitney Houston, it
was Luther Vandros, it was you know, basically we were
a black household my mom. If you asked, my mom's
musical taste would be gospel, R and B and honestly,
like she she would shock you with some of the
things that she knows and likes, Like she knows every
Luther Vandros song. Ever, we watched CNN documentary and she

(10:16):
knew it all already. Yes, yeah, yeah, we said, I
don't know what he thinks going on in Mom and
fred ze we're watching Luther Vandros documentaries.

Speaker 3 (10:24):
Yeah, my nanna loved him too. He was like, pretty universal?
Are you I'm learning? I thought it was just like
a my nana undead thing, but there you go.

Speaker 2 (10:31):
Like, if you go through our old record collection, it's
mostly M M, it's mostly R and B oh yeah, yeah,
which is for everybody. But I don't know what if
people thought we were like at Homeless and the led
Zeppelin or something, I don't I don't know what.

Speaker 3 (10:43):
That's what I was listening to see.

Speaker 2 (10:44):
There you go, So I don't know, were you really Yeah,
you grew up with that kind of stuff, Zeppelin, the Beatles.
You know, are you being funny just because you have
the shirt on Target? Are you being serious?

Speaker 3 (10:52):
Absolutely being funny?

Speaker 2 (10:54):
Okay, she like almost.

Speaker 3 (10:57):
Didn't land the plane on Zeppelin. I was like, all right,
I'll let her get this lie.

Speaker 2 (11:01):
Off because you're like, you're trying to tell me we
grew up in the opposite house.

Speaker 3 (11:05):
I don't believe that the seventies were great, though. I'm
sad for you seventies rock.

Speaker 2 (11:10):
It's not that I don't tickets. I just don't. It
doesn't resonate with me, like it. It was kind of
like a missed decade.

Speaker 6 (11:17):
Yeah, my stepdad was big on the like all rock
and stuff, and then my mom it was like, I
don't know what I call this. I call eural music.
It's really not because like we all know it. But
it's like the well, the Aqua man, what's his name Aquaman? Right, yeah,
like the Barbie girl guy, Like it's just not mad.
But like that was like that era of like disco

(11:39):
techo music. I call it nineties club music.

Speaker 2 (11:41):
Yeah you had like you had Aqua yeah, god yeah.

Speaker 3 (11:47):
Real McCoy that was our house Robin Unlimited.

Speaker 6 (11:52):
You had Robin and Robin asked, yes, they both were there,
but yeah, house music's outside, Like that's I want my
daughter to grow up listening to that.

Speaker 2 (11:59):
Like Stevie B. That was before. That was earlier though,
that was that was pre.

Speaker 6 (12:02):
Awqua, that was w Yeah, that's like what eighties right,
My girl Susie oh yeah, oh she's my girl.

Speaker 1 (12:09):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (12:09):
Cindy oh okay, the right right, that's Justindy.

Speaker 2 (12:16):
But I do think it's a great quality in somebody
if they have good taste in music. But the problem
is it has to be you know, it's hard to
be objective when it comes to good taste in music
because you you may have great taste in seventies music,
and that's just not exactly my thing. You know, you
may love disco music and be able to curate a
hell of a disco playlist. You might know the beg's
back and I don't know, but I don't, so I don't.
I don't know what you say is your actual Wheelhousekiky?

(12:40):
Like I realized you. You know, you're the double duty qute.
So you over here on the pop station, you're over
there on the hip hop station. I mean, you could
do it all. I've I've heard you on ESPN de
port Taste. It's incredible. Your coverage and Spanish of Football
Americano is unbelievable. I mean it's crazy. I don't know
why you don't speak up when we talk about the
NFL on the show because in Spanish, I mean, you're

(13:02):
calling coward over here.

Speaker 3 (13:03):
No I try, yeah, I try, But.

Speaker 2 (13:05):
What is your actual wheelhouse?

Speaker 1 (13:07):
Like?

Speaker 2 (13:07):
What if you had to like focus in on what
you really want to listen to?

Speaker 3 (13:11):
My favorite era of music? Is probably nineties R and.

Speaker 2 (13:15):
B Okay, oh so like twelve.

Speaker 4 (13:18):
Yeah, also early two thousands pop though, because like that
was that was a.

Speaker 2 (13:23):
Time vertical horizon. Are you like a are you like
a like a white people pop or I don't mean,
I don't mean to make this. I'm not trying to
make this racil but everybody knows exactly what I'm talking
about during that era because you had like, uh, you
had like Three Doors Down and Third Eye Blind and Semisonic,
and you had like these bands that were very clearly

(13:44):
a bunch of white kids. And then and then but
then you also want to just the exact same time,
you had like uh, Keith Sweat.

Speaker 3 (13:51):
And you had Casey and Jojo, Casey.

Speaker 2 (13:53):
And Jojo, and you had one twelve and you had
you know obviously Biggie and yeah too, nineties R.

Speaker 3 (13:58):
And B hip hop.

Speaker 4 (13:59):
That's that's it, right, But then you have the early
two thousand's pop, which is like Britney, Christina, n sc
Ye actually boy, yeah.

Speaker 3 (14:08):
You know all of them. Like that was of home movement.

Speaker 1 (14:11):
So Calwen's Entertainment Report. He's on the Fred Show.

Speaker 5 (14:15):
Miley Cyrus says she lost the lead role in a
movie all over a penis cake.

Speaker 3 (14:20):
Good Morning.

Speaker 5 (14:21):
She was on Monica Lewinsky's podcast and said that she
was dropped from the kids movie Hotel Transylvania after a
photo surface of her jokingly posing with the cake for
then boyfriend Liam Hemsworth's birthday.

Speaker 3 (14:33):
Obviously a joke.

Speaker 5 (14:34):
She said the moment was harmless and actually private, but
the image was leaked after someone stole her camera, which
is very unfair. She called the firing hypocritical, noting I
was eighteen, old enough to work in a kid's movie,
but apparently.

Speaker 3 (14:46):
Not old enough to live like one.

Speaker 5 (14:48):
Miley calls it bachelorette style humor and said it's totally normal,
just not normal for former Disney stars trying to grow
up in the public eye. Word is that Katie Perry
and Orlando Bloom are headed to to break up, but
they're waiting until Katie's Lifetime Store wraps in December to.

Speaker 3 (15:04):
Make things official.

Speaker 5 (15:06):
Since they've been down this road before, I think friends
don't know if the split would be permanent, but stressed
from Katie's recent album one four three getting mixed reviews
along with a not so great reception to our tour,
are definitely not helping tensions in the relationship, and it's
not helping the fact that they haven't sad a wedding date.
They've been engaged since twenty nineteen, which I feel like
is kind of wild. At a Sydney tour stop, also,

(15:27):
Katie joked that a Timtam, which is a chocolate Australian candy,
saved her after a breakup, kind of further fuelling speculation
that the couple is nearing the end after growing apart
and living pretty separate lives. Actress Sidney Sweeney says she's
completely comfortable doing nude scenes these days, thanks to the
confidence and self awareness that she's gained by playing Cassie

(15:50):
from Euphoria. I don't think anyone is going to fight
her on that one if she wants to do that.
During a recent interview with w magazine, she says the
female body is a strong storytelling tool, and when nudity
serves a character's story, she's all in. But she's also
not afraid to push back on scenes that she feels
like are pointless, like if some directors like I think
it should be naked when you're cooking your breakfast in

(16:10):
this scene, she's not scared to be like no.

Speaker 7 (16:13):
Now.

Speaker 5 (16:13):
On the complete other end of the spectrum, Candice Cameron Buret,
who you know from Full House and lots of Hallmark Movies,
says that she avoids scary movies and edgy media at
home because she believes they act like a spiritual portal
that can invite in demonic influences. She shared on her
podcast that her family jokingly rolls their eyes when she

(16:34):
warns against watching horror movies or using products like liquid
death water for this.

Speaker 2 (16:39):
Is one of my favorite debates to have. But two
a thousand people. Oh and by the way, that they
were sexually active adults too, So let's just be clear here.
We didn't ask that. We didn't ask any virgins about this, okay, no, no, no,
no no. We didn't ask those who are who are
wearing purity rings and waiting for marriage. We didn't ask them.

(17:01):
I just think it's funny that they had to say
sexually active adults, because I think you can cheat on
someone non sexually. But maybe that's the question Americans have
defined cheating in modern relationships. So according to two thousand
sexually active adults, many considers behavior like many consider behaviors.
Like harmless flirting, chatting with an X, and watching adult

(17:22):
videos as forms of cheating that could potentially end their relationships.
In Huge Trouble's Prolific cheater every day, multiple times a day,
cheating over.

Speaker 6 (17:38):
Here, like I don't know, like the Blockbuster or whatever
it was at the you know.

Speaker 3 (17:48):
The video store back in the day, and you have
to go in between those beads.

Speaker 5 (17:50):
Yeah, it's all so hot in the beads, and one
of them in their room, in their living room.

Speaker 2 (18:00):
Is that's a reference that there are people listening who
don't know what we're talking about. But back in the day,
they used to have in the nineteen hundreds, in the yeah,
right in the twentieth century or very for a long
time ago, they had places where you could go you
physically walk in, and they had these little boxes and
inside the box was another little box and you put
that into a device it will play a movie. It's

(18:22):
called a VHS tape. Then they had DVDs, which little
CDs had played movies, and you had to go to
the place and get the one you wanted and use
it and then bring it back or otherwise you would charged
enormous fees.

Speaker 5 (18:34):
I think they still have them for our local listeners
at TAJA's by Paris Club where it used to be.

Speaker 3 (18:41):
I'm pretty sure that bookstore.

Speaker 2 (18:42):
Oh you adult movies. I was just describing. I was
just describing the concept as a whole. Oh, I wasn't
even talking what are you thinking about? No, I was
talking about the video rental process. You're talking about going
inside of a store watching something in a booth.

Speaker 5 (18:54):
Yeah, they have the DVDs and you can still run them,
and they actually have an area where you could.

Speaker 2 (18:59):
Go make it all the way home.

Speaker 3 (19:01):
Yes, yes, at least they used to.

Speaker 5 (19:04):
Yes, but they have a lot of DVDs in they're
still I was in there, and.

Speaker 2 (19:09):
You're gonna have to hang out here for a while
and watch the video I just rented. Yeah, but dan
some of them the Blockbuster Video, which, of course I
am an alumnus of Blockbuster Video. I was an assistant manager,
I'll have you know, at age sixteen, which what could
have possibly gone wrong with that? We didn't have any
of that kind of content. But then some of those
stores had like a little closet in the back and

(19:29):
it was there's a little bead partition or a little curtain,
and that was where you could go get the naughty stuff.
But then a friend of mine was listening recently when
we were talking about something similar, and she said that
they didn't have the naughty corner. They had a catalog,
like you had to ask for the book and then
stand there like, right, Hey, can I have the pervy
book please? Like, no, the real pervy one, not that one.

(19:52):
That one's like more. That one's more erotic. I want
the real that's the one. You get it over here,
give it to me.

Speaker 3 (19:58):
What's all this shame king chaining?

Speaker 2 (20:01):
I mean, well, that's your freak flag fly if you're
still going to a store where you have to flip
through some sort of manual to get the video that
you want, and I maybe you're asking for that kind
of shit. Maybe you're a masochist. I don't know. But
when it comes to ADULTA films, fifty four percent of
people asked believe that racy content should be banned altogether

(20:21):
once the relationship becomes serious. So if I watched content
on my own, I'm cheating, that's what.

Speaker 3 (20:31):
No, you're not cheating.

Speaker 1 (20:32):
You're not.

Speaker 3 (20:34):
Cheating.

Speaker 4 (20:35):
But what I define is cheating is anything that I
wouldn't do in front of my partner. So would you
watch it in front of your partner or with your partner?

Speaker 2 (20:45):
Wat, Yes, I would, But I don't know that I
would do the whole the whole Dog and Pony show.
If you know, necessarily into that. That's a whole different asset.
That's an entirely different proclivity. If I if i'm you know,
I want you to watch me do no, that's a
whole different thing. I'm not trying to do all that,
but I mean so I can't. But I look, I

(21:07):
guess if we're being honest, I guess if I'm not
trying to this is very early in the morning. I'm
trying to be like, you know, as a I'm not
sure about this as possible, which is extremely hard for
me to do. But if I found out that my
girlfriend or wife were like addicted to some star, like
watch the videos of the same person over or even
even as soon as I walked out, the Hebrew Hammer

(21:30):
comes on the you know YouTube every single time, and then,
like you know, I would begin to feel self conscious.
I would be like, wait a minute, So the moment
I leave the house, you go and grab some other
stimulus to make yourself happy. In that way. I don't
know if that's cheating, but I definitely think like we
have a problem, you know.

Speaker 3 (21:49):
Pushing you out, She's like, do you have to be
at work?

Speaker 9 (21:51):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (21:52):
Boy, it's two thirty. I mean, like, don't five, Like,
don't she need to you know? Yeah, there's lunch in
there for you and in her and reckference for the
next day. If you, for some reason you don't want
to come.

Speaker 3 (22:04):
Back, which I don't do it.

Speaker 2 (22:06):
I mean I don't want to protein shaking there for
your work out. It put some workout clothing there, don't forget.
We have that membership at the other place where you
can take a shower, so you don't have to come
home at all if you don't want to. Then she's
got the iPad plugged into a generator, right, This thing

(22:29):
ain't gonna die now. So that would I would that
would make me uncomfortable if all that happened. But if
I find out that you look at a movie for
you know, stimulus or whatever, what is you look at
a video? If I find out you look at something
just every I don't know, like that's un cheating. Can

(22:50):
we be reasonable for one reasonable guys?

Speaker 4 (22:52):
All I'm saying is any anything you wouldn't do in
front of your partner to me is cheating. Now, I
think it's okay to have some alone time. But like
you said, next thing, you know you addicted to the
Hammer that you watch it every day.

Speaker 2 (23:04):
Okay, that's crazy. Let me ask you this. So I
don't watch any I don't want. I don't watch any videos,
no content, But I think about people who aren't you.

Speaker 3 (23:14):
You're cheating. What see you're cheating? Now I can't have
my own thought.

Speaker 2 (23:17):
No, so I can't even I can't have any sid
I just it has to just come to me. Well,
and it has it has to be about you.

Speaker 3 (23:25):
Yes or else you got to say in your mind.

Speaker 4 (23:27):
Get that out of there, like think about my ham
We'll see.

Speaker 2 (23:33):
That's the problem is that what you're probably going to
think about is either a fantasy about someone else or
about someone else that you used to get with in
order to help with this. That's that's probably worse than
watching a stranger who you're never gonna meet.

Speaker 3 (23:47):
Exactly, they're not real. I don't know.

Speaker 4 (23:48):
Today these videos were like, you know, big hammers up
the street for ten dollars, you know, meet up with
big camera, Like why is he so close.

Speaker 3 (23:55):
I don't know the way.

Speaker 2 (24:04):
I'm a little insulted because just because I'm watching this
doesn't mean I can't do it in real life. You're right,
You're right. They'll be an ad like, why are you
doing that? You can call this number and someone will
do it for it. It's like, well, yeah, hold on,
wait a minute.

Speaker 7 (24:21):
Do you know where I am?

Speaker 2 (24:22):
So they know where you are? Yeah, they know where
you are?

Speaker 3 (24:25):
Aaron, Yes, Hi, good morning.

Speaker 10 (24:29):
Hi.

Speaker 2 (24:29):
So is it cheating to watch? I mean, we only
got through the first one. I haven't even gotten to
the other things that are modern cheating. I didn't even
mean for this to be about one thing. But do
you think that watching a movie in an adult movie
is cheating? If their partner's not there, I don't think
it's cheating.

Speaker 3 (24:49):
But if you have a partner with uh, good drive,
why watch the movie?

Speaker 2 (25:00):
Well, because again, if you're if you're avoiding connection with
with a person who you are with in favor of
watching something else, then I think that's a problem. But
I don't know that I think it's cheating. I think
you might have like it. There might be some kind
of emotional disconnected or some kind of a connection issue.
But like, I don't know that. I don't, I don't.

(25:21):
I don't know unless unless that's what you're doing. Like
if I literally don't want to get with you because
I would much rather do it myself with some other
completely unrelated stimulus, that's a problem. But if I'm just
at home one day and I'm like, hey, what's going
on here? They're in my area? If you click, Aaron,
if you click on the in my area link, we
have a problem.

Speaker 3 (25:43):
Well yeah, But if your spouse is at home, then just.

Speaker 2 (25:46):
You know, well, now that would make me uncomfortable too.
I wouldn't. I wouldn't like that. I mean if I'm like,
what are you doing? Man's hold on right right? Like
I'm here though, and then if the person were to say, well,
why why are you here? Well, then you know we
have a problem, Aaron. But You're right. If I'm in
the house and you choose that over me, then I

(26:08):
think again, is it cheating or is it just we
have an intimacy problem?

Speaker 3 (26:14):
There's a problem.

Speaker 2 (26:16):
Yeah, I think so too, Aaron. Thank you you why
this has been eye opening. Have a great day you too.
I appreciate you. Okay, So there's that digital interactions and
past relationship often create the most tension. As it pertains
to this study about modern cheating, sixty percent of those
surveys consider chatting with an ex partner as crossing the line,

(26:36):
and more than half view what many might dismiss as
harmless flirting as a betrayal of trust. So, okay, so
my ex from a girl I used tooke up with
fifteen years ago who's married, and hey, I saw your picture.
You look great, have a good day. Whatever, that's cheating, Jason,

(26:58):
what is it?

Speaker 3 (26:58):
Because I'm tired of me in the here because it's
all that's.

Speaker 11 (27:02):
A different level for me like that. So no one
you've ever dated can contact you. No, I can't control
other people do. So that's not cheating if someone just
messages you. But if you're engaging with that, then that
is going to uncover a problem.

Speaker 2 (27:18):
Right. But there are people who I've hooked up with
in the past who are not going to cheat on
their spouses and partners who I still have a good
relationship with. I think that only speaks to that it
was a healthy breakup. I'm more skeptical look cheating or
not cheating. I'm more skeptical of the person who who
none of their exes will talk to them, and they
won't talk to any of them. I'd be like, what

(27:39):
is that about.

Speaker 3 (27:40):
That's a red flag to me.

Speaker 2 (27:42):
Sure there are going to be some that you're not
going to talk to anybody. I mean, I've dated some
terrible human beings, but then but then I've dated some
really good people and I've screwed it up. So you know,
I don't consider myself a terrible human being, but I
consider myself a you know, emotionally flawed human being. So
I've screwed some up too. But that doesn't mean that
we don't have a good dialogue some you know what
I mean. I think it's about communication.

Speaker 11 (28:03):
Like if I'm dating you and you're talking to your acts, like,
you need to be open about that because the last
thing I want to do is find out you're talking
to them unbeknownst to me. But if you're like, hey,
I'm friends with like you can be friends with your acts,
I'm totally fine with that, but don't hide it.

Speaker 2 (28:19):
A third of responders said they would directly confront their
partner if they noticed their significant other was hiding their
phone password. So now we think that's modern shooting. If
I don't give you my password?

Speaker 1 (28:29):
Why not?

Speaker 3 (28:29):
And why are you hiding your password?

Speaker 2 (28:31):
Why do you need my password? It's my phone.

Speaker 3 (28:34):
I don't need it.

Speaker 4 (28:34):
But if you're like, if you're like hiding, like shielding
your phone, like, why are.

Speaker 2 (28:39):
You honering over me trying to get my phone password?

Speaker 4 (28:41):
Well that doesn't matter, but why are your password?

Speaker 2 (28:44):
There are people in my area. That's why I don't
want you in my area. I want them. Wait a minute,
so you have probably have it, and if he wouldn't
give it to you, that's cheating.

Speaker 3 (28:56):
It wouldn't be cheating, but it'd be very suspect.

Speaker 2 (28:59):
Suspect.

Speaker 6 (29:00):
Don't follow him on Instagram, the whole family, and I'll
call him.

Speaker 2 (29:10):
Or lord knows, Yeah, their mom called mom, she called dad. Yeah,
they're in law enforcement. She makes them arrest him, and
it would be so you're right, it would be wild.
Hey Allisons, Okay, So so so let me see you
we're trying to identify modern cheating, which apparently is now
everything that I do every day. You're saying, the real

(29:33):
question is what.

Speaker 10 (29:36):
The real question to me is only fans. If you
are paying somebody and you can possibly interact with them,
in real time, they can send you personalized content.

Speaker 3 (29:48):
To me, that is definitely cheating.

Speaker 10 (29:50):
But I've had other people say it's not because it's
not you're not with them in real life.

Speaker 2 (29:55):
That's a very interesting one to me because I wouldn't
like that, right, Like if I'm dating someone and she's
paying another man, even if it's virtual to you know,
whatever is to make it look more intimate. On the
flip side, I'm very close, very very good friends with
the woman who makes a tremendous amount of money making
these videos on OnlyFans. And she'll tell you she does

(30:17):
not get one damn about these people, like and that's
sound to be disrespectful. She's providing a service, they're providing
her money. That's what it is. If they think it's
more than that, that's fine. But she certainly makes it
feel like it is for their benefit. But what I'm
saying is doesn't does cheating that I guess it doesn't
require both sides to be engaged.

Speaker 3 (30:34):
That would be a line for me.

Speaker 5 (30:35):
I don't need you fallen for someone and having personalized
things like hey, Tim, how you feeling?

Speaker 9 (30:41):
You know?

Speaker 3 (30:48):
That money on me because they're thinking, yeah, right, paying somebody.

Speaker 2 (30:54):
Yeah, I agree, Alison. Thank you have a good day.

Speaker 3 (30:57):
Hi, Fred, are you in my area? The streets on
your street.

Speaker 9 (31:06):

that my understanding?

Speaker 9 (32:05):
Yeah?

Speaker 11 (32:05):
This is yeah, it was a couple of nights ago,
but yeah, I decided to, uh, I am cooking more,
and so I decided to make a debut and new dish.

Speaker 2 (32:15):
And where are you getting these dishes that you're debuting
like magazines, no lazymeals dot com.

Speaker 11 (32:21):
Oh okay, my skill is very low. Okay, so I
go for the easiest of the easy, and so this
one was very easy. I will make anything into a
cast role. Okay, just put anything into a baking dish
there on the oven. But she's on top, and like
we're good, right, well I made this. I made this
castle role, and I could just tell, like Cathley, there

(32:41):
was like I don't know, like this isn't We were
having the same issue when you were at a BATCHI
Fred was looking at me like this ain't seasoned, and.

Speaker 10 (32:48):
Right, like.

Speaker 2 (32:50):
Excuse me, excuse me. When I was the chef at
Benny Hannah a few weeks ago, all right, and you
guys hate the food. I had the food later and
the food tasted fine.

Speaker 1 (33:02):
It was great.

Speaker 2 (33:04):
You need sauce, you need salt dim in the soy sauce.
And problem solved what sauce.

Speaker 4 (33:09):
Or what it was great after but in the process,
I was like, wow, he's getting like he's close to
the finish line, and I ain't seen that salt shake.

Speaker 3 (33:16):
Yet the chicken.

Speaker 2 (33:17):
Really, you know what? How dare you? How dare you've
ever been left waiting by the phone.

Speaker 1 (33:29):
It's the Fredshell.

Speaker 2 (33:30):
Brad, good morning, welcome to the program. How are you?

Speaker 1 (33:33):
I'm a little bit confused.

Speaker 2 (33:35):
Hon Okay, Brad is confused. Let's see if we can
help with the confusion. So we're trying to figure out
if this woman Cassie may be ghosting you. So tell
us about Cassie, and then about any dates that you've
been on and all the backstory here, and then how
we can help.

Speaker 8 (33:48):
So I'm a Cassie at this networking event for other
people in real estate.

Speaker 2 (33:54):
I'm a real estate agent. She's a lawyer.

Speaker 8 (33:57):
She's like cute. We got her number and after the
event I asked her.

Speaker 2 (34:02):
Out on the date and he said yes. We met
up at this cool.

Speaker 8 (34:07):
Bar, and I know she left kind of quickly, like
after two drinks. But I thought we had a pretty
good time. I just figured she had an early meeting.

Speaker 2 (34:19):
Okay, So she kind of took off after the date
like kind of quickly, and two days excuse me, two drinks.
I feel like is the standard, whether you like it
or not for a first date. I feel like that's
kind of like people's comfort level, Like, hey, I'll go
off for a drink with you that way, if I
have one maybe two, and then I want to get out,
I have an out. But at least is how I

(34:40):
look at it, because then if like, let's say you
go for two drinks it goes really well, then you
can extend the date, Hey, you want to get something
to eat, or like, we can go do something else.
But then if it doesn't go well, which I don't
know what happened here exactly, then you've got your out,
like I did my drinks thing, and then we're going
to move on. Did you feel like that? Did you
feel like, hey, we had two drinks and it kind

(35:00):
of fizzled and she walked away. I mean, you must
not feel that way if you were expecting her to call. No,
I don't think it's fizzled.

Speaker 8 (35:06):
I honestly don't know to be because this doesn't happen often.

Speaker 2 (35:09):
Okay, So my man here, Brad, like he's got a
you got a great batting record with these women, like
you're out here just you're getting all the dates he
wants what you're saying, Brad.

Speaker 8 (35:17):
Yeah, I mean I'm a good looking guy preparing myself.

Speaker 2 (35:21):
Okay, okay, I see right, So you're puzzled here because
it's like, hey, we talked to the event and then
we went and had drinks, so that's not really two dates.
But like it wasn't a total flyer. I mean, she
knew what she was getting into, knew what you looked like,
and kind of knew the vibe, and so you know,
you have these drinks and then she doesn't call you back.
You're like, what the heck?

Speaker 8 (35:38):
Yeah, my normal first date is like most people's third
or fourth day.

Speaker 2 (35:42):
Oh okay, I see, well what does that mean? Hold on,
I'm trying to fit What does that mean exactly? You
knew about the Oh so he's closing on? Oh I
got eye My goodness. Okay, So for Brad, the Brad
effect is we don't go to Normally it would be
three dates, not for Brad, Brad date number one Kiki.

(36:03):
You know you know what he's talking about. I'm yeah, yeah,
because Kiki for Big Tim several dates made him wait,
you know, many many dates. But if she going out
with Brad, yeah, lots of years. Yeah, well that might
be part of the problem. Then maybe that's where the
ring is then, but I don't know. All right, well,
let's let's call this woman, Cassie. We're gonna have you
on the phone at the same time. Of course, we're
going to ask questions on your behalf, and at some

(36:25):
point you're welcome to jump in. And the hope is
that whatever's going on we can straighten in out. Maybe
she's been busy or distracted somehow, and if that's the case,
we'll set you up on another date and pay for it. Okay, Hey, Brad,
Hey man, let's call Cassie. You guys, you met in
person at a networking event, you went on a date,
had a couple of drinks, you thought it went well,
but you have not heard from her since then, and

(36:46):
you want to know why. All right, let's call her now.
Good luck, Brad. Hi is this Cassie? Yes, Hi, Cassie, you,
good morning. My name is Fred. I'm calling from the
Fred Show, the morning radio show. The whole crew is
here and I do have to tell you that you

(37:07):
are on the radio right now, and I would need
your permission to continue with the call. Can which hat
for just a second on the on the show, would
you mind?

Speaker 3 (37:15):
I guess I don't mind.

Speaker 7 (37:17):
I don't know how you guys got.

Speaker 2 (37:18):
My number though, Okay, well I'm gonna get to that,
so thank you. I think that was a guest. So
we're calling on behalf of a guy named Brad. I
guess you went out with Brad. You met him at
a networking event and you went out and had a
couple of drinks. Do you remember Brad?

Speaker 1 (37:33):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (37:34):
I do?

Speaker 2 (37:35):
Okay, well you remember Brad? So what happened? Because he
reached out to us and he told us that he
had a great time with you and felt like things
went well on the date. But he's reached out since
then and you haven't responded, So what's going on?

Speaker 3 (37:49):
Honestly, I thought that date was a prank? Like are
you are you?

Speaker 12 (37:54):
Guys? Vamm?

Speaker 2 (37:55):
Did he give you my number?

Speaker 12 (37:56):
Because that was a brank?

Speaker 2 (37:58):
No, I can honestly tell you the day was not
a Why do you think the day was a prank?
We actually had nothing to do with a date. We
only got involved when you'd stopped calling him.

Speaker 12 (38:07):
Oh well, I felt like it was a prank because
like Brad was just very like he's so handsome and
just like charismatic and stuff, and I was just looking forward.

Speaker 9 (38:19):
To the date, like me and my friends got me
all dressed up and I had a friend curl my
hair and everything was great.

Speaker 3 (38:26):
And so then I got there.

Speaker 9 (38:27):
We sat down and we made a drink and instantly
Brad started talking about how hot the server was and
he was like, she's at least this eight and I'm
like okay, and then he's like, can you rate her too?

Speaker 2 (38:40):
And I'm like I guess.

Speaker 12 (38:42):
And then for the like forty five minutes over only
like there's like two drinks. We he went person to
person in that bar and we were supposed to rate.

Speaker 3 (38:52):
How hot or not everyone on.

Speaker 12 (38:54):
The only the woman know only the woman, and I
just I couldn't believe that, like ed no. Then he
asked about me comment or may being pretty or anything.

Speaker 3 (39:04):
But at that point I was like, this is a
prank and I need to get out here.

Speaker 2 (39:07):
So we were talking about everybody but you, every woman
but you all those Brad. I forgot to mention that
Brad is here, Yeah, Brad is after the chat room exactly.
I'm sorry I didn't forget to mention Cassie the Brad
was here. I'm very forgetful. So, Brad, you're on a
date with Cassie, who made an effort to go out
with you and look really pretty, and you don't even
bother to compliment her, but rather go around the room

(39:29):
and talk about every other woman and then objectify them
and rate them. I just want to because that was
the date activity. Obviously she's hot because I after that,
and I guess you would never go out with anybody
who wasn't what an eight pick eight plus? I mean, yeah,
I mean go on a date probably in a plus

(39:50):
if you know, I'm in a pint, maybe a seven
I saw in a pan. Yeah, So so she should
have just assumed that she was among the elites because
you chose her as what is what? I want to
be clear, that's what you're saying. Yeah, okay, and she
should have just assumed that. So, like, it's not your
job on a date to complement the person who you're
on the date with. Instead, we should just focus on

(40:10):
everybody else.

Speaker 8 (40:11):
I mean, I think that would have been rude.

Speaker 2 (40:13):
But if we rate it well, Cassie, I have a question,
how would you rate Brad? Because apparently no one's asked
that question, what would you give him?

Speaker 7 (40:21):
I mean, in terms of the look.

Speaker 12 (40:23):
Bad, I'd say this Sally seven point five. And then
if there's a personality down I'm hearing about it, I
give him a three.

Speaker 1 (40:32):
Wow.

Speaker 2 (40:33):
Okay, yeah you're seven point five. Brad thoughts on that.

Speaker 8 (40:37):
I think she's just sulky at this point. Yeah, I've
already moved on. I'm already thinking about going to that
same Barie out on the date because there's definitely a
lot of eys in there.

Speaker 2 (40:50):
Again, Yeah, that's not work at all. You know, there's
a good amount of seven. I just I don't know
why you're on a date with someone who you're saying
was in your mind attractive, but yet we spent time
talking about how attractive or unattractive everybody else was. Like,
there's kind of a lot of problems with that.

Speaker 8 (41:09):
You know, I like to find if the girl i'm
sing is also inested in another girl, you know, doing
the fun.

Speaker 2 (41:17):
Oh so you're hoping that she would rate other women highly?
And oh, I wow, this is a complicated game.

Speaker 3 (41:24):
The first date we're going to do that.

Speaker 2 (41:26):
We call that the Brad effect, you know. Yeah, yeah, Well,
so Cassie were supposed to be rating women so that
you could maybe include them in the evening kick right
over there.

Speaker 4 (41:37):
No, I can't get over the sound of his voice.
I don't know how she ended up on a date
with this man like that alone is just not doing
it for me.

Speaker 2 (41:45):
But he's Brad. Yeah, yeah, I mean Brad be Brad. Yeah,
you're talking to Yeah, that's the one. Okay, That's why I.

Speaker 9 (41:54):
Gave him a seven point five.

Speaker 3 (41:55):
It's the voice. The voice is so annoying.

Speaker 2 (41:58):
Wow. So he would have been maybe like in the
ads or something. So he must be a good looking
guy then, because if you're.

Speaker 3 (42:02):
Giving any pigs, Brad said some picks over.

Speaker 2 (42:05):
Yeah, why don't you send over a little portfolio and
it will be the judge about that. Normally I don't
even have to talk. Oh, I see, he's so good looking.
Maybe would have been better if you hadn't exactly, Maybe
maybe you shouldn't have talked, and then things would have
gone way better for you. But okay, I Brad, Cassie,
I'll ask the question, but I know the answer. Would
you like to go out with Brad again?

Speaker 5 (42:27):
Oh?

Speaker 7 (42:27):
No, absolutely not.

Speaker 2 (42:31):
What I don't blame you, Brad, I'm sorry, it's not
going to work out. I guess go back to the
bar because you see a lot of a lot of
talent in there. Apparently, yes got to shoot. I'll do okay.

Speaker 1 (42:43):
Caitlin's entertainment reports on the Press show.

Speaker 5 (42:47):
Britney Spears is firing back after ex husband Sam Askari
suggested that their marriage hurt his career, which is laughable,
by the way, and she didn't hold back, labeling two
former partners as effing complete a holes, saying she loved
their dogs more than she loved them. She also called
out to unnamed partners for being cruel humans who didn't

(43:08):
even hold her hand for six years, adding that this
past week has left.

Speaker 3 (43:12):
Her turned off by humanity.

Speaker 5 (43:14):
Brittany wrote she'd rather spend time with animals who show
her loyalty than people who are alive today, and sometimes
I agree with her. After beefing with fellow Tulsa Native
musician John Morland, singer Zach Bryan dropped a new version
of his song Memphis the Blues, replacing.

Speaker 3 (43:31):
His feature with JR. Carroll. So this all started.

Speaker 5 (43:34):
Remember when John slammed the news that Zach had sold
his publishing catalog his publishing rights for millions and I
mean it was a crazy number for I guess how
long Zach has been in the game. But the new version,
or the Morland version rather of Memphis the Blues was
Onzac's twenty twenty four album, The Great American Bar Scene,

(43:54):
but Jr. He replaced him with He's been a keyboard
player in his band also an artist on his own,
so he completely took him off the album. Sabrina Carpenter
is blessing us with a new album, hopefully some more
summer bangers on there. She announced that A Man's Oh
I'm sorry, man's best friend, not a man's best friend
that would be a dog, is.

Speaker 3 (44:13):
Now available for pre order.

Speaker 5 (44:15):
It's another short and sweet one with twelve tracks, including
her new single man Child. The album drops August twenty ninth,
so a little later for the summer bangers, but Manchild
is a good song. And lastly, our iHeartRadio Music Festival
is back if you have not heard September nineteenth and
twentieth in Vegas. Of course, two nights, one stage, and

Speaker 2 (45:08):
Very very it is the freend Show. Good morning, thanks
for having us on the radio, on the iHeart app
live and anytime search for The Fred Show on demand.
All right, So Caitlin has a uh, she has a think.
She has a thought about hotels because we're staying in
a hotel this week on our little field trip. It's
a little, a little romantic getaway. Yes, and you believe

(45:30):
that there are certain things that should not be in
hotel rooms.

Speaker 5 (45:32):
Yes, Like okay, So I'm going to start with a
positive because you know, you're captain positivity and you're inspiring me.

Speaker 1 (45:40):
Thank you.

Speaker 2 (45:41):
No, I'm glad that you've noticed. I think I've been
extremely positive. Why is that you have a look on
your face like you're not kidding. I've been way more
positive than you, guys.

Speaker 9 (45:49):
I know that.

Speaker 2 (45:51):
You are more positive than me I honestly, which isn't
saying much, but I've really I've been trying really hard
and we're like forty days into the month and it's
been a really really difficult years so far. So for
me to like stay above water with the positivity thing
at least eighty seven percent of the time, yep, it's
pretty good now that thirteen is it's a low. It's

(46:11):
a low place, but you know anyway, So.

Speaker 3 (46:14):
Yeah, so I'm starting out with a positive.

Speaker 5 (46:16):
I will say, our hotel has wood floors, does your
room Jesus?

Speaker 12 (46:19):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (46:19):
Okay, well by wod you mean it's more of a
plastic wood. Well it's giving more like machine made.

Speaker 3 (46:28):
But still yeah, positive.

Speaker 2 (46:29):
It's not carpet from the nineteen sixty eight is not carpet.

Speaker 5 (46:32):
I think carpet is discussing in general, let alone like
being in a hotel room and thinking about all the
like skin cells or whatever's on that carpet.

Speaker 3 (46:40):
I know, I'm sorry. So that's a positive.

Speaker 5 (46:42):
But the negative is there are shower curtains, and I
don't think a hotel should ever have a shower curtain,
and it's not like a good curtain either, and it's
just creeps me out and like whose butt cheeks have
rubbed up against it when they drop the soap.

Speaker 11 (46:57):
I have a question because I don't know if I'm
doing it right. Are you am I to split the
two halves or no?

Speaker 3 (47:02):
Yes, but it wasn't built properly, so like it gets
wet on the floor.

Speaker 2 (47:08):
You don't know how to work a shower. This is
the least surprising thing ever. You didn't know how mountains work. Okay,
so you don't know how to work as shower curtain.

Speaker 11 (47:17):
No, but like when there's the two like there's the
two layers or whatever, are you supposed to split like
I've been splitting one.

Speaker 3 (47:23):
Yes, but then it gets all wet. But it's claws.
It's not like drying material.

Speaker 2 (47:28):
It's clearly well, it's not the point of it. It
may get wet, but the point is that the water
would hit the curtain and then run down it and
stay on the inside.

Speaker 3 (47:35):
I'm doing it right, but it's not working the way.
But it's not supposed to like get out.

Speaker 11 (47:39):
Ry quickly, like I have a plastic shower curtain at home,
like like a water you know what I mean. This
is cloth like it's still like like my shirt, like
my shirt is like feels like the shower curtain.

Speaker 2 (47:52):
So you're anti shower curtain. I'm very thankful you're happy
with the vinyl floors.

Speaker 3 (47:57):
Yes, and now I have not used the TV, but
the size of the TV is nice. I've been using
my iPad, but the size is nice.

Speaker 2 (48:04):
Yeah, that's pretty normal. I have an ad in television
at home, and I still watch on my tanage iPad
watch everything. I don't know why. I literally I'm sitting
in the same room with the gigantic television, but I
still watch everything on an iPad. I don't understand that.

Speaker 5 (48:17):
There's iPad shows and there's like TV Like I wouldn't
watch like the super Bowl on an iPad at.

Speaker 2 (48:22):
Home, but I'm more of a live TV guy. Yeah,
and then I watch everything else on a small, tiny thing,
which is why I'm sure my eyesight will it will
be gone soon. Okay, so you don't want a shower curtain,
but you got to remember, like these are tub showers,
so what are they supposed to do?

Speaker 5 (48:36):
Whatever they did, do something different, because, like Jason said.

Speaker 3 (48:39):
Even though it's supposed to keep the water off from
the floor.

Speaker 5 (48:41):
It doesn't and it's stopping wet, and I don't know,
somebody's yabos rubbed against it.

Speaker 3 (48:48):
Like mine, that room for a germophobe.

Speaker 2 (48:52):
I've had to let Jesus take the wheel for hotels
for my whole life because that's been a hotel room
for fifty years. I mean that hotel was probably building
the seventies and it's been remodeled, But like that, that
room has been a hotel room for fifty years. So
they're never gonna they can burn the building down and

(49:12):
probably still the DNA would be lingering somewhere. So there's
no way around it. Like I'm not worried about a
shower curtain or floors or it just here is what
it is. You walk in the room, it just is
like there's no way around it. Yeah, can you only
imagine in fifty years what's happened in that building? There
a ghosts everywhere.

Speaker 5 (49:29):
Yeah, there is a microwave though, Kiki, I should because
you know I've thought about this, you know, as we
talk about hotels, I've never woken up in a hotel
in thought to make a cup of coffee.

Speaker 3 (49:40):
So like, let's take the coffee machine out.

Speaker 4 (49:43):
Okay, take all of that mess off the top of
their put the microwaves back, get us some glass shower
doors and move on.

Speaker 2 (49:50):
But how do you put a glass shower door in
a tub shower? You don't.

Speaker 3 (49:53):
You're not gonna need a tub shower.

Speaker 2 (49:56):
Who's taking a tub? Take it a tub.

Speaker 3 (50:01):
I wanted to take a tub, and I was like,
oh my god, I can't.

Speaker 2 (50:04):
I know, I won't. I won't, I won't.

Speaker 3 (50:06):
But I love a tub.

Speaker 9 (50:07):
Oh.

Speaker 3 (50:07):
I love to take a tub.

Speaker 2 (50:08):
And I think the coffee thing is like, okay, you
know here it is. I don't have to go downstairs.
I don't have to buy it. It's free. Do you
use it?

Speaker 1 (50:17):
Hell? You ever?

Speaker 3 (50:17):
Noah.

Speaker 4 (50:19):
In my thirty years of life, I've never woken up like,
you know what, I'm gonna use this coffee machine, this sugar,
this a little star thing we don't need because it's water.

Speaker 3 (50:27):
It just tastes like water. It's not good.

Speaker 2 (50:29):
So you tried it?

Speaker 3 (50:30):
Yes, I get very upset if it's not in the room,
like I want to know. I want it. Yeah, I
just want it there for the aesthetics, But I will
not use it.

Speaker 6 (50:36):
Because I'll still go to get Starbucks or go to
the lobby whatever, get duncan.

Speaker 2 (50:40):
Oh yeah, you want it for the because they're so attractive.
I've I've also heard that people use those things to
boil water to like cook in and people do crazy stuff.
What people use the irons to cook?

Speaker 3 (50:52):
To give us a microwave and we won't have to
do this.

Speaker 2 (50:55):
Well, that's another thing is I looked inside that microwave.
You kind of want to see what we were working with,
And I'm like, you know, like I think I found
a dinosaur egon there, Like I.

Speaker 3 (51:07):
Don't know, we need them right, And don't cook in
your hotel room. You're sick for that.

Speaker 2 (51:11):
Come on, people. People do a lot of things to
adapt when they're on the go, and it concerns me
a little bit. Like I've heard of people cooking with
the iron, like making like beanini sandwiches with the iron. Yeah,
don't do that.

Speaker 3 (51:25):
This country.

Speaker 2 (51:28):
Yeah, I mean it's a hack. You know what other
hecks that I've seen. You know how the curtains at
the hotel never really connect, They never truly connected. So
if you go in the closet, they have the hangars
that have the little hooks on or the little clamps
on the bottom of them. You can clamp your pants on.
You use the clamps to then seal the curtains together.
But why do the curtains not connect? Like who mismeasured

(51:51):
for the whole hotel? Because they ordered those all at
the same time. Yeah, so why do they never connect?
Like did not? Like people just guessed it's supposed to be.
The size looks like eighty inchest to me.

Speaker 3 (52:03):
I don't I don't know. They want you up, they
want you awake. You can't sleep the day away.

Speaker 2 (52:08):
There's also a hack to make your room even colder,
but it's it's like it looks like a like a
Contra code, like if you played Contra and Nintendo Aba B.
You know, it just starts like starts like up down, updown.
There's a way that you can like get into the
maintenance mode of the thing, push a bunch of buttons,
and then you can override whatever settings they have and
make it even colder. The problem is you can break

(52:30):
the ac that way, and you do that here because
I'm sweating in the radio station. Ye no, because it's
on fire.

Speaker 3 (52:35):
So yeah, and you started it trying to place there
did I tried.

Speaker 2 (52:40):
I can't believe you made that confession this morning. We're
never gonna get invite it back here. You started a fire,
You're the reason, and nobody knew that well up in
the city.

Speaker 6 (52:55):
My latest one was the head ants in the house.
I was like, what did you have to do so
bad in your past life that you'm back as an ant?

Speaker 10 (53:00):
Wow?

Speaker 2 (53:01):
Yeah, No, it's a full intelligence creeping every morning.

Speaker 3 (53:03):
It's intense, that's what you're doing in there?

Speaker 2 (53:05):
Yeah, what'd you tell it? Never mind?

Speaker 1 (53:07):
I would start the bread show is on.

Speaker 3 (53:11):
I have a lot of.

Speaker 2 (53:12):
Respect for people, the Thespians, you know, state actors. It's
very hard to do. I'm sure. I just for me,
I just for some reason, it makes me uncomfortable, like
people singing in a non I should say, in a
non musical way.

Speaker 3 (53:27):
Like a conversational way like that.

Speaker 2 (53:30):
When I do a concert doesn't make me up. I mean,
the crowds make me uncomfortable, but like the event itself
is amazing. But for some reason, people like overacting, like
over dramatizing basic things. It just makes me uncomfortable. And
it's a me problem. It's a me issue. I guess
I'm just too dry and literal and devoid of emotion.

(53:50):
I guess I'm not sure, but like I went to
Dear Revan Hanson, my sister wanted to go for her
for her birthday and went to New York and Broadway
and the whole thing. I actually really liked it. I
thought they did great job and it's a sweet story.
But my parents, my mom just just to sum it up,
my mom and my aunt and my sister are sobbing.
My brother in law is looking at sports scores. My

(54:12):
dad's asleep. I'm just and I'm going, Okay, where what
a motley crew I'm with right now? But I don't know.
For some reason, stage acting just makes me feel weird.

Speaker 3 (54:25):
I just really want you to see Wicked, though, because
it's so good, so good even and I'm not a
musical girl either. Really, Oh, I have to start out
with a sad story. This one really got me.

Speaker 5 (54:36):
Ananda Lewis, famous as one of MTV's early VJs on
TRL and actually the host of the A Nanda Lewis Show,
has passed away at just fifty two years old, following
a very courageous five year battle with breast cancer. Her
sister shared the News yesterday, writing simply, she's free and
in his heavenly arms. And Nanda first went public with
her stage three diagnosis in twenty twenty, acknowledging that she

(54:59):
did skip a regular mammogram actually multiple, due to.

Speaker 3 (55:02):
Fears about radiation exposure.

Speaker 5 (55:04):
Despite doctors recommending a double mess ectomy, she chose holistic
therapies like detox, diet, changes radiation, but later express regret
as the cancer progressed to stage four.

Speaker 3 (55:15):
She has survived by her son Langston.

Speaker 5 (55:17):
So it's so tragic and let this please be a
reminder go get your mammograms, please, please, please please.

Speaker 3 (55:24):
Early detection is everything.

Speaker 5 (55:26):
Switching gears to Ditty, who apparently needed a companionship in
the days after ex Cassie Ventura filed that civil lawsuit
against him. This all according to a conversation he had
with his ex going by Jane Doe in court. According
to new evidence filed in his ongoing federal trial, Ditty
and Jane had a conversation recorded by Christina Korum, an

(55:46):
employee often referred to as Ditty's chief of staff, on
November nineteenth, twenty twenty three, and this date is significant
as it is just three days after Cassie filed that
initial lawsuit that kind of started this whole thing. Two
days after Diddy quickly settled for twenty million did he
ask Jane not to send him any texts, fearing anyone
who reads them may misinterpret their communications.

Speaker 3 (56:09):
He then tells her he needs her friendship during this
difficult time, and while Jane says.

Speaker 5 (56:13):
She's quote so left up and twisted inside, Diddy pushes
tells her she's got nothing to worry about. In another
chat from the same day, Diddy tells Jane his love
for her is real. Then she says she's been crying
for three days, presumably since the lawsuit came out, but
Diddy kept bringing the conversation back to things that they
did sexually sexually, and this is interesting because Jane then

(56:37):
seems to try to discuss more about a previous conversation
that the two of them had in some way connecting
to the situation multiple times, but Diddy stops her and
insists that everything they did together was consensual and asked
her to get some sleep. So he's very much allegedly
trying to hammer this point in, like everything.

Speaker 3 (56:55):
We did you wanted to do as well. There's also a.

Speaker 5 (56:57):
Photo of a broken door included in a recent evidence filing.
I don't know if this had anything to do with
the alleged physical altercation between them that we heard about
earlier this week, and she was back on the sand
yesterday testifying more about these alleged freak offs, including saying
that she used the promise of one of them to
get Ditty to leave a vacation with a different girl

(57:19):
early to come home and see her.

Speaker 3 (57:21):
And lastly, real quick, Ryan Gosling.

Speaker 5 (57:24):
Was rumored to take over the role of Marvel's Black Panther,
and the rumor was spreading like wildfire online.

Speaker 3 (57:33):
But do not worry, there is not an ounce of
truth in it.

Speaker 5 (57:37):
So word was or is that Ryan hasn't been cast,
nor has he even been talked to or I to
play an iteration of Black Panther, the iconic African superhero
played by the late legendary Chadwick Boseman. It seems as
all started from a meme of Ryan's face photoshopped onto
Black Panther posted back in twenty eighteen. Needless to say,
people were losing their spit over the idea of a

(57:59):
classic cultural superhero being played by a white dude. And
it was pretty understandable why people were upset. I mean,
the role was, like I said, for the culture, very
iconic and legendary.

Speaker 3 (58:11):
And not to worry, it is not true. Ryan Gosling
is not playing backpack black Panther. Excuse me.

Speaker 5 (58:17):

Speaker 2 (58:39):
So much, so much. Guys, did you know that the
Bisenji dog, the Bisenji dog breed is the only breed
that doesn't bark. The only dog breed that does embark,
the Bisi. Some smaller dogs have high, pitch y, happy barks,
while larger dogs tend to have deep howls and logos.

(59:00):
But the Basenji is a breed of dog that doesn't
bark at all, although that doesn't mean that they're silent.
According to the American Kettle Club, they make their feelings
known with an odd sound described as something between a
cordal and a yodel. They're so cute, they are very cute.
But they make a little quardo yodel, quordo yodel. But
it's not a bark. It's not a bark.
