Speaker 1 (00:00):
Fred's show is on Fred's Biggest Stories of the Day.
As we mentioned, Pope Francis has passed away. He was
eighty eight years old. The Vatican's announcement comes less than
a day after the Pope made a high profile appearance
in public. Just before that, he held a brief meeting
with the Vice President JD.
Speaker 2 (00:16):
Vance.
Speaker 1 (00:17):
His death will prompt a period of morning after which
all cardinals under the age of eighty will convene to
pick the next leader of the Catholic Church. Typically takes
between two and three weeks for a new pope to
be chosen, and if you're not Catholic, they all go
into this like house castle, I don't know what it is,
the Vatican, and when they decide, white smoke comes out
(00:37):
of this chimney thing, and that's when we know we
have a new pope. I guess they decide amongst themselves,
which I was just talking off the air. I've been
in one fraternity recruitment bid session where we decided who
was going to get in the fraternity and who wasn't,
And I have to imagine this is no different.
Speaker 2 (00:55):
Didn't you feel awful about yourself? Because I certainly did.
Speaker 1 (00:57):
Oh my God, it was so nasty. Yeah, like we
we voted not to let some guy's brother in an
actual relative, Like it was so bad.
Speaker 2 (01:08):
Well, I mean a bunch of twenty years.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
I mean, if you wanted a fraternity or sorority, you
know there's and it's different for sororities, different from fraternities.
It's probably even different based on the fraternity. But at
my college it was Deferred Russia. It was January, so
you'd go there, you know, freshman year, you did first semester,
and then January you'd come back and everybody pretty much
had a good idea where they were going because you'd
been sort of recruited the whole first semester, and you know,
they'd buy your beer and stuff and tell you that
(01:31):
you were cool, so you know whatever, and then you'd.
Speaker 2 (01:33):
Go where your buddies went or whatever.
Speaker 1 (01:35):
So usually they would like like my fraternity went after
like a whole group of us, like fifteen of us,
and there's like we'll take all we want all of you,
like if you'll all whatever, and we all went because
it was like, well, this guy lived across the hall
and this guy was my roommates. We all like, but
they meet and it's like it's like a week long thing,
so like everybody gets to come the first day and
(01:55):
then they whittle it down to where you're only now
getting invites and by the end of the week. I
think it was a Saturday morning or Friday morning. You
go to the student center and they give you an
envelope and there's either an invitation to be in a
fraternity or there isn't. And for some people there was
there weren't you open. There's nothing in there that was embarrassing.
I've heard for the girls now they'll call and tell
(02:16):
them ahead of time, like, hey, there's no bid for you.
Speaker 2 (02:17):
Don't come out of here. I hope something it'll be embarrassing.
Speaker 1 (02:20):
And at my college, if people didn't get into the sorority,
the sorority specifically that they wanted, this was it was
not uncommon to see a moving van man in back
of the dorm at about eleven am on mid day,
which for girls was Saturday, and it was here's dad
schlepping all their stuff out because they're transferring. Oh yeah,
oh yeah they did. If they didn't get into the
(02:40):
best sorority or whatever. I think at SMU was Kappa
at the time, it was like, you know, I'm a
fifth legacy Kappa. I have to be a Kappa. I
have to I have to be a Kyle, I have
to be a whatever. I have to be a Theta.
And then if you don't get it, then off you
go call dad a moving van and like you know,
(03:00):
it's like some guy you know in his Lulu Lemon outfit,
just you schlepping all these toachs full of stuff because
we're going home because it's over. But yeah, and then
but I don't know if it was like this in
the sororities, but the final meeting was like we'd all
sit around and we came down to I don't know,
(03:20):
let's say they were forty guys and we could take thirty.
And so we'd sit there and we'd go name by
name and some were like universally yes we want them.
And then there was always there, always three or four
five that it was contentious, and then people like would
vote with like it was like it was like political,
Like there'd be guys going hey, before the meeting, Hey,
look I need your vote on we don't want this guy.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
I didn't even know who it was.
Speaker 1 (03:41):
But like if an elder in the fraternity was like, hey,
I need your vote, and I was on like that camp.
I was like in that little facet of the fraternity.
Then I would vote with that guy and people would
stand up with like tears in their face and be like, no,
we got to have him, like he's my he's my cousin,
or like he's my best friend's brother, you know, Wherever
and El Paso, and we got to have him. You know,
(04:03):
it's like I gotta ge him in here. And then
we'd vote the guy out. I think I all what
took was like two or three no votes and then
they weren't in. They were gone next. It was so bad.
Speaker 2 (04:13):
It's not great.
Speaker 1 (04:14):
No no, But I think I bet you that's what
this cardinal thing is like, where they all get together
and then they somehow decide among them which one of
them is being called upon my god, but I gotta
think more than one of them is thinking they're getting
the message?
Speaker 2 (04:28):
Yeah, who gets the message?
Speaker 1 (04:31):
Like we got to figure in a group of however
many men that is cardinals. You know, there's a few
that probably think they're better than everybody else, and they're
probably coming and they be like, I'm the Cardinal of
New York City, you know. And then the other guy's like, no,
we never pick an American, so no, you know, and
then the other guys, I am the cardinal of I'm
already cardinal roam guy, I already live here. You don't
(04:52):
have to pay for my relocation, you know, just move
me over.
Speaker 2 (04:55):
Wait.
Speaker 3 (04:55):
So there's no like board of directors for this, Like
it's literally amongst whatever, ten people.
Speaker 2 (05:00):
Look this up. Just that's crazy. There's that new movie
too that's getting a lot of one. Uh, it's a
show or a movie. It's a movie about cardinals. I
thought that one at the Awards shows. Hold On the.
Speaker 1 (05:12):
Catholic Church follows the centuries old process to elect a
new pope, known as papal conclave, which occurs after the
pope dies or resigns.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
Following the death of the pope, The Catholic Church Conclave
is the movie.
Speaker 1 (05:25):
By the way, they do this, oh whatever, Yeah, they
get all the cardinals together. I'm trying to get the
exec process here. It's just so the word somewhat accurate
about this. Anyway, they get all they get all the
cardinals together, and they somehow choose amongst themselves who needs
to be the most powerful religious figure.
Speaker 3 (05:47):
And I'm gonna say this now on record. We would
say this on this radio show for years. Now is
the time for a rebranch. So if you're listening Vatican,
now is the time.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (05:56):
A lot of people would tell you that Pro Francis
was like the first step in that she was he
would it's pretty open minded about things that have traditionally
not the Catholic Church has not been open minded about.
Speaker 3 (06:04):
Yes, and he's a great first step. So now let's
take it another step further.
Speaker 2 (06:07):
Jason Brown Gay yho, Jason Brown Gay is the guy. Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 1 (06:12):
Anyway, he passed away, so very sad. Two injured over
the weekend in north of Norfolk State University is shooting.
Another shooting. This is the second last week. It happened
on the campus in Virginia on Saturday, leaving two men injured.
The incidents at place around eleven thirty pm Presidential Parkway
known as Greek Row on campus. So that was the
(06:36):
second one last week. At least twenty seven states in
America are now impacted by the ongoing measles outbreak. So guys,
now we got measlesick in ten with Louisiana Virginia and
Missouri have reported their first measles case of twenty twenty five.
All three cases were linked to international travel at least
twenty seven states in America and are now impacted by
the outbreak. Measles is a contagious virus that compromises the
(06:58):
immune system, making those infected more susceptible to subsequent infections
like pneumonia. Vaccination significantly reduces the risk of contracting the disease,
with the vaccine showing ninety three percent effectiveness after one
dose rise in a ninety seven percent effectiveness after a
second dose. The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame the
fan voting ends today. Apparently, Mariah Carey is among the
(07:22):
artists that are sitting outside the safe zone. Mariah Carey's
not going to get in. Wow, how could this be?
A Fish is in first place with over three hundred
thousand votes, making up the top six. Bad Company, Billy Idols,
Cindi Lauper, Soundgarden, and Joe Cocker.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
Fifties Legend.
Speaker 1 (07:39):
Chubby Checker is in seventh place, which does not guarantee
induction into the Hall of Fame. Mariah Carey is among
the artists that are sitting outside the Safe Zone. The
inductees will be announced next month. Wendy's was seemingly among
the haters of the recent all female Blue Origin space
flight So is Kicking Yes, posting some snark on social
media after it touched back down. So Wendy's posted on
(08:04):
x U let me see here. They posted can we
send her back? Referring to Katy Perry like to space
And apparently now the fast food chain is is being
asked to offer an apology to Katy Perry because Katy
Perry is very upset that they said it. Now. Wendy's
is known to be snarky on the socials. Wendy's has
(08:24):
the social media account that everybody needs to ask yes,
that every corporate every corporation needs wants to hire whoever
writes Wendy's tweets because they're on top of it. And
now we're talking about Wendy's right, So it's perfect. We
always bring a little spice to our socials, says Wendy's
in response. But Wendy's has a ton of respect for
Katy Perry and her out of this world talent.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
So they had to get it in there again. I
love these people.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
They also posted a joke about Perry kissing the ground
upon her return to Earth, but this was their statement.
Someone close to Perry told People magazine this wasn't harmless banter.
This was a billion dollar brand using its platform to
publicly to meet a woman. When billion dollar brands join in,
it's irresponsible. Wendy should do the right thing in the
(09:11):
name of their core values, apologize and do better in fairness,
Wendy's makes fun of everybody, men included. Yes, and we
all made fun of Jeff Bezos when he did this,
by the way. Yeah, so let's let's just for the record,
this was not necessarily all about I don't think, I
don't think anything to do with being a woman as
much as it did with everyone talking about being astronauts.
Speaker 2 (09:32):
And no, it's because Katie's annoying. Let's just call spa.
I'm it seemed like she was on something.
Speaker 1 (09:37):
I mean, good for her for being whatever, whatever sort
of euphoria she found after visiting space for twelve seconds
is amazing or whatever she visited. No, it's great, but
it's like it did seem a little off. And then
he got Gail King over here going, well, why don't
you try it.
Speaker 3 (09:50):
Okay, yes, Gail, Kay, Gail two oclock today it's er
welby Okay.
Speaker 2 (09:54):
Okay, Gail, I'd be happy to let sign.
Speaker 3 (09:57):
Me up if you put yourself in that kind of
position right like you're doing doing this like crazy, never
been done kind of thing. This is so wild, like
you have to be ready for either the backlash or
the memes that you know it's all coming, Like, come on,
are you that not self aware?
Speaker 1 (10:09):
Especially when you land and it appears that you're cracked out.
I'm sorry, but she was. It didn't make sense. It
was just babble.
Speaker 2 (10:16):
It didn't make sense.
Speaker 1 (10:18):
Still, so anyway, we all love Katie Perry around here,
but it was and I'm I'm sure Wendy's would be
happy to make it nice frosty and make it all right.
And I don't know why this is even a discussion
or who had the balls to even say this, but
it turned out that women are not dumber or more
mentally unstable during that time of the month. Women's cognitive
(10:38):
abilities remain stable during your menstrual cycle. Throughout history, popular
narratives have often portrayed menstruation as a condition that in
pairs thinking or decision making but according to a recent study,
no significant or consistent differences were found in attention, creativity,
executive function, intelligence, or motor performance during that time. And
whoever tried to question that I pray for you, you're
(11:04):
going where the pope is, Well, actually you're you're well,
you're going away. You're probably not going to where the
pope is if you're dumb enough to say something like them.
It's National Kindergarten Day Today. The Entertainment Report will do
blogs new Waiting by the Phone Money, which show Bisquiki,
all coming up friend shows,
Fred's show is on Fred's Biggest Stories of the Day.

I interview experts, celebrities, thought leaders and athletes so that we can grow our mindset, build better habits and uncover a side of them we’ve never seen before.
