Speaker 1 (03:19):
So right?
Speaker 2 (03:25):
Do you want to talk about Do you want to
talk about dating? Do you want to talk about exchoose
your an adventure this morning? Do you want to talk
about various dating? I have two new dating terms for
you all to know. I have a new dating a
trick that that apparently men are using on dating.
Speaker 1 (03:40):
That's what we're doing.
Speaker 2 (03:41):
Never mind, I mean, I just I just served it
up like it was gonna be all this or that.
Or we could talk about the fact that jen Z
has a request for women at the gym, or we
could do all of it.
Speaker 3 (03:50):
How want all of it?
Speaker 1 (03:51):
You kind of want all of it? Give me everything
to night. I want all of you tonight. I do So.
Speaker 2 (03:58):
A TikToker is apparently is the guy, and he is
using dating apps to trick men into telling him their
secret fishing spot.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
What yeah, so right?
Speaker 2 (04:13):
So this guy, he's a TikToker and he's been orchestrating
a clever scheme. He catfishes guys on dating apps like
hinge pretending to be a woman. Once he connects these
unsuspecting users, I guess they do. I guess a lot
of men hold up fish in their profiles, like if
you're certain parts of the world.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
I guess they they do.
Speaker 4 (04:32):
I remember that, Yeah, when I was on dating apps,
I do feel like I saw that a lot with
the fishing and you hold it up.
Speaker 3 (04:37):
How big it was?
Speaker 1 (04:37):
Yeah, I guess it's a big deal.
Speaker 2 (04:38):
You hold up a fish and your thing, like you
can I know how to catch these or something. But
once he connects with them, the unsuspecting users often share
their prized fishing spot locations, sometimes even sending GPS coordinates. Now,
I didn't realize if we have any fisher people out there,
fisher men and women. I mean I realized that people
(04:59):
have fishing spots or places that they think are lucky
where they get to catch more fish.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
But I mean I don't know why.
Speaker 2 (05:06):
So so what you're You're like, you're chatting with a
woman and you think it's attractive into fishing, and you're like, wow,
I really struck gold here. I won the lottery. I
found a fisher lady, and so I'm going to tell
her where I fish her. I'm going to take her
to the fishing place, but the approach is a apparently.
Speaker 1 (05:20):
Game serious traction.
Speaker 2 (05:22):
He now has ten TikTok videos over a million views,
including one title Day thirty four of cat fishing guys
on Hinge to get their fishing spots, which alone has
one point eight million views. His most popular clip, which
is posted in late July, takes viewers to an S
tier fishing location where he lands twenty brook trout in
just an hour.
Speaker 1 (05:41):
WHOA wow, I don't know. I guess that's pretty good.
Speaker 2 (05:45):
I mean, I would imagine twenty fish in an hour
is good no matter where you are.
Speaker 1 (05:48):
But yeah, why is he doing this?
Speaker 3 (05:50):
Like what is his purpose?
Speaker 2 (05:51):
You know?
Speaker 3 (05:54):
Right?
Speaker 1 (05:55):
Well, he used to get the fishing spots.
Speaker 2 (05:57):
But I'm not just giving up my fishing spot like
any Like, I'm not just I'm not telling you. I'm
not all the secrets, you know what I mean? Like,
I'm not just I'm not only on the apps telling
you all the best restaurants that I that I take
dates to.
Speaker 3 (06:11):
And you think it's somebody you like, like a girl
you like, you wouldn't do that.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
I might be like, hey, let's go on a date
and then maybe maybe we'll go fishing if you're into
fishing fishing, and I might, I might take you to
the spot. But I'm not just like sending you longitude
and latitude of my of my due. I don't know
what is what kind of where is this is Arkansas
or something?
Speaker 3 (06:31):
Where are we fishing?
Speaker 1 (06:33):
Yeah? And why is what? I mean?
Speaker 3 (06:35):
Why is it?
Speaker 5 (06:35):
A question about many fishing spots have so many questions?
Speaker 2 (06:38):
What was you if you were trying to get information
out of someone like this? I mean, it wouldn't be
a fishing spot like what on a dating app? If
you were trying to sort of scam someone into telling
you something, what would be what you'd want to know?
What their credit score is? How much money they have.
Speaker 1 (06:54):
Money?
Speaker 4 (06:54):
Right?
Speaker 1 (06:55):
You know?
Speaker 6 (06:55):
Now I don't care about your credit score? How to
get mine improved?
Speaker 2 (06:58):
Right?
Speaker 6 (06:58):
You know?
Speaker 2 (06:59):
Oh, you're looking for finn angel tips? Yes, okay, well
the first let me give you one. I'm just going
to start. Let me give you one. And that's that's
not to ignore the bills when they arrived.
Speaker 1 (07:08):
Hey, I have to protect my piece, so.
Speaker 2 (07:11):
Right, I understand that age that seems to be what
people do when they just don't want to do something
that seems to be the catchphrase is that you know,
instead of being accountable, they just protect their piece.
Speaker 6 (07:20):
So sorry, but I would be really mad if I
if I was one of these men who gave up
my spot, because I don't know if you guys have
ever broken up, Well you've broken up with people, I'm sure,
but then they use your restaurants in a new relationship,
or they play your songs that you put them onto
in the new relationship, like that will really make me upset.
Oh yeah, yes, Like I don't want you at my
(07:42):
restaurant with your new chick. That was my point that
I put you on.
Speaker 2 (07:45):
I remember during COVID, I was dating this girl and
she basically insisted that I live with her. I don't
know you you were present for this, Ques, I don't
think the rest of you were here. Maybe Jason was
here for part of this. But it was basically like
it's COVID, and basically what it was is that she
wanted It was a control thing, like men moved into
her place.
Speaker 1 (08:02):
That was how this worked. And I understand.
Speaker 2 (08:03):
Yeah, I know you said, I think I was dating
you actually, except she was white. But that was the
only difference. But so during this and this lasted a
few months or whatever, but I bought a case of wine,
and I bought like a box of steaks, like of
nice steaks, nice steaks, and she had a little grill,
(08:24):
you know, and so like we put the steaks.
Speaker 1 (08:26):
In the freezer.
Speaker 2 (08:26):
We were like drinking the wine and making the steaks.
And so we broke up, and I never got my
stakes from my wine back. But it was like it
was a case of wine and like eight or nine, say,
and it were expensive.
Speaker 1 (08:37):
They were like nice steaks, you know what I mean.
Speaker 2 (08:39):
And so I would have I'm bringing this up because
I promise you that she consumed that with some other man.
Some of the man came over and she made him
move in, and then she made him cook the steaks.
And I got staks here. I paid for those. I
hope you enjoyed that. Never got my steaks from my
wine back. But I'm not giving him my fishings behind,
all right, I draw the line there. I mean, I
(09:00):
think I would want to know, you know. I wish
I wish I could have like a little I wish
there were like I guess they kind of are yell
previews for people but it's really like women writing about
men on those those websites or whatever. Yeah, but which
which I don't I don't know about that. If you're
if you're calling somebody out for being a scammer or
a criminal or you know, or worse, absolutely or cheater
(09:24):
by all means. But what I think these things had
become is just let me roast the guy that didn't
do the thing that I wanted that well, no, I mean,
I just I'm all for the first part. The second part,
I guess I don't really get, but I wish there
was like an honest, yell review for people, Yes that
was real though, like and maybe everything that's on there
wouldn't be what you'd want to hear. But just I
(09:45):
don't mean, like, this guy didn't call me back after
I took him, you know, after he took me to
dinner one time, So I'm going to say that he's
the worst human being on earth so that no other
woman wants to go out with him. I mean, like,
you know, very sweet, tends to be emotionally unavailable at
or or you know, excellent in bed, not great at
(10:05):
responding to text like a carfax report, like a carfax
but like useful information, not necessarily mean or like spiteful.
But I mean, just what am I getting into here?
You know, like very intelligent but kind of ditzy or
you know, you know, I've will we'll leave during a
(10:27):
fight but comes back an hour later.
Speaker 7 (10:29):
I like that, But make it like update it every year,
like an annual review at work, like kind of like that,
because I feel like we change as we get older. Right,
So like then you interview to a whole thing. I
think when you start dating, I really do believe in interviews.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
Yeah, but again, like I said, this would happen, and
people who break up with people are probably not prone
to be positive not positively constructive, but constructive. But I
mean can not not like scorned. I mean, you know
information that could be helpful, good and bad. Yep, it's
gotta be balanced. And I don't know how we would
keep track of this or or checks, you know what
I mean, I don't know how we would do that,
(11:02):
but anyway, And then put your fishing spot in there too.
And then here are the two dating terms that you
must know because if you're on these dating apps and
you're looking for fishing spots, then maybe you'd want to
be aware of these things, but I'd like to keep
you up to date on the dating terms.
Speaker 1 (11:13):
This one's called monkey baring.
Speaker 2 (11:15):
Some people would call it cheating, but in today's world,
meet the trend dubbed monkey baring or monkey branching, a
behavior of that's more emotional betrayal than just a fling.
So imagine someone never really lets go of their current partner,
all while lining up the next one just in case.
It's a move driven by fear of being alone, not
by genuine connection or honesty. Experts across the field of
(11:38):
dating or calling it a form of cheating, entirely separate
from transparent, agreed upon arrangements like polyamory. Relationship pros argue
that monkey baring reflects codependency and emotional immaturity, a way
to avoid healing and real growth, and it's not alone
in the toxic Trends Hall of Fame.
Speaker 1 (11:57):
I guess there's bank seeing.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
Of course, we talked about that, where a partner emotionally
would draw us unexpectedly leave any other blindside and their submarining,
which someone vanishes for a month only to reappear as
if nothing happened. Yeah, tails old, yeah, monkey bard, I
know I've been privy to this many times. The people
that just can't be alone and they want to make
sure they got a place to land. So they're feeling
(12:21):
you out to see where you're at, you know, whether
it's a bad marriage or a relationship that's you know,
sort of dissolving or whatever. It's like, I haven't quite
broken up with that person, or I haven't broken up
with them at all, or I'm telling you that I'm
going to break up with them, but really they don't know.
They have no idea yet that I might break up
with them if I find something better. But people like,
(12:42):
my thing is break up with someone and then come like,
don't like you do that because you need to do that,
and then come talk to me. Don't because then it's like,
why why do I got to be in the gray area?
Speaker 1 (12:57):
While yeah, why.
Speaker 6 (12:58):
Well, you know, I think women's times leave a relationship
mentally and emotionally before they leave physical.
Speaker 1 (13:04):
Well, then leave it physically.
Speaker 6 (13:05):
Wait, I'm gonna get to that point, but I might
as well start fishing or looking, you know, before I
exit this relationship.
Speaker 1 (13:14):
I know I'm leaving you on you know, in December,
but if you know what day, if you know who
you are leaving.
Speaker 2 (13:23):
You need to leave because what is the point of staying,
What is the point of you physically like.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
You're wasting four months of your life.
Speaker 2 (13:31):
Just break up with the if you, if you, it's
not fair to the other person. If you're already disconnected,
then it doesn't matter what they do. Like let's say
that the relationship is not going well, and then you've
are automatically detached emotionally, like I'm done, I'm out of here,
and you know whatever, whenever he makes my last car
payment or whatever it is. And then and then maybe
that person senses that and starts trying hard. What doesn't matter,
(13:52):
because you've already decided you're out, So just leave.
Speaker 3 (13:54):
Well, it's not that easy for it.
Speaker 6 (13:56):
Sometimes you have to, you know, go through the motions,
You go through the until breakdown of it all. You
gives chance after chance after chance, and then it's like, okay.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
Then the last chance you leave because because what I
find is that there are a lot of people out
there and they just don't want to be alone. They've
got to They simply cannot stand the idea of just
pausing and not having another person there.
Speaker 1 (14:19):
That's right.
Speaker 2 (14:20):
I don't think they realize how offensive it is to
the other person. It's like, so I'm only good enough,
So you're only gonna leave this person if I say yes,
I mean it's it's like I'm not your backup plan.
Speaker 3 (14:31):
No, No, it's a terrible idea.
Speaker 2 (14:33):
You know what I mean, Like like I don't want
to be chosen because you don't want to be alone.
Speaker 1 (14:37):
I want you to be alone and then choose me.
Speaker 7 (14:40):
Yeah, and I need another step too, if you're gonna,
let's say, pursue a relationship with somebody else, right, okay, whatever.
Speaker 3 (14:45):
I need space and time.
Speaker 7 (14:46):
I need you to heal a little bit too, Like
they'll just run to me like the next day.
Speaker 2 (14:50):
I don't.
Speaker 7 (14:50):
I don't think that's a good idea either. I don't
think we're fully healed yet. I don't think we've really
processed the emotions of what's happening right now.
Speaker 1 (14:57):
Yeah, I agree, well crazy.
Speaker 3 (15:00):
Heel no, but we can at least you try a
little bit.
Speaker 2 (15:03):
Well at least it is a raw you know, it's
not like the wound doesn't still open, you know.
Speaker 7 (15:08):
Just have some time to yourself, have a little a
little whole face, if you will, a little time.
Speaker 2 (15:12):
Just have a little time to yourself. Yeah, I don't know.
Just don't make it seem like I'm I'm I'm the
backup planner, or like or if I say yes, Daniel, Dan,
you'll break up or divorce someone, It's like, what, No,
how about do that because you need to do that,
because that's the right thing to do.
Speaker 1 (15:24):
Don't evolve me in that decision.
Speaker 6 (15:26):
Well, yeah, I agree with that, and I break up,
divorce all that. Yeah's work in order.
Speaker 1 (15:31):
When you're over here saying there's a grayer no, because
I'm just being I'm just saying this.
Speaker 6 (15:35):
Sometimes women, it's we we leave a relationship while we're still.
Speaker 2 (15:38):
In it, Well, then that's fine, But then don't go
find somebody out. Don't go get into one with somebody
else emotionally or in your head until while you're still
physically with somebody else.
Speaker 6 (15:46):
Well, the wise woman once told me, sometimes the easiest
way to get over a person is to get under
somebody else.
Speaker 3 (15:52):
That's that's what the wise one.
Speaker 5 (15:53):
Okay, that could be bound yeah, like different than the
actual really, but.
Speaker 2 (15:57):
If you don't break up with the other person, that
is cold cheating. A wise person once told me that's
called infidelity. And then the other dating term for you
guys this morning is shrekking, inspired by Shrek. It's when
you date someone that you're not really attracted to, hoping
that they'll treat you better because well, you lower your standards.
Speaker 3 (16:15):
Oh no, I don't work.
Speaker 2 (16:17):
Dating experts warn it off in backfire is getting shrecked
usually ends with disappointment that romance relationship. One particular relationship
coach said that dating an ogre without the princess treatment okay,
the takeaway physical attraction shouldn't be the sole measure of
how you'll be treated. And if you've ever gotten shreckedt
why are you pointing it?
Speaker 1 (16:35):
Yourself?
Speaker 3 (16:38):
Left you saying no, I'm.
Speaker 1 (16:43):
Saying hobby chose a what's your name?
Speaker 2 (16:46):
Right?
Speaker 1 (16:47):
You are not.
Speaker 3 (16:50):
You are not silly.
Speaker 1 (16:52):
It wasn't just on a podcast.
Speaker 2 (16:54):
The old NBA player is saying that, like he likes
to choose sixes and sevens because they'll treat him better.
Like if you pick some one that you know is attractive,
that you believe is less attractive than you are, or
that the world accepts to be less attractive than others,
that they're somehow going to be more appreciative of.
Speaker 1 (17:07):
That is crazy. It is awful. It is it is awful. Like,
first of all, what do you think of you? How
do you know you're a ten? Eight or nine or what? Seven?
Speaker 2 (17:19):
And then you're obviously I'm picking fives and six is
because well they're lucky to have me, Like who wants that?
Speaker 7 (17:26):
Yeah, just say you're insecure and I'd rather just be
single that point.
Speaker 5 (17:30):
I know, you say that publicly and all of a sudden,
you're choosing me.
Speaker 1 (17:33):
Now I know I'm a five and I'm an ogre. Well,
I mean, I don't know who's gonna say that out loud.
I don't know who's ever going to be like, yeah,
I shreckt you.
Speaker 2 (17:42):
It's just like there was the beat and then you started,
and I'm just wondering, like, is that's just that's just
your flow, that's.
Speaker 1 (17:49):
How you do it.
Speaker 3 (17:49):
Yeah, So in this day and age in the industry.
Speaker 1 (17:52):
Especially with AI, you know, in the industry.
Speaker 7 (17:54):
It's a lot and everybody's a musician in their own way,
So you have to differentiate yourself otherwise you will be
left bed.
Speaker 1 (18:00):
And your way is to take the beat and then
just shift it over.
Speaker 3 (18:03):
Just slightly, just slightly, keep you on your toes he
is see it coming.
Speaker 2 (18:06):
No, you talked all through me. No, I certainly no, Beau.
When I thought it was over, we had where was more?
Speaker 1 (18:11):
So?
Speaker 5 (18:13):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (18:14):
You know fact? Okay, no, oh wait, we're still more
to go.
Speaker 2 (18:19):
So headlines, uh, no news, no politics as as polling
it so eloquently enunciated. After more than thirty years in prison,
Eric Menandez was denied parole by a California board that
decided that he still poses a risk to public safety.
Now Lyle, his older brother, who was convicted alongside him
for the murder of their parents decades ago, will have
his own chance to argue for release. The brothers got
(18:41):
the chance to face the California Board of Parole after
being re sentenced in May from life in prison without
the possibility of parole to fifty years to life in
prison with the possibility. Eric's parole hearing lasted nearly ten hours.
His officials questioned him on his rehabilitation and listen to
arguments from the La County District Attorney's office against his release,
as well as please from members of his family in
(19:02):
favor of it. He'll be eligible for parole again in
three years. This was almost I mean, a year ago
or so, this was happening, like they were getting out
and now they're not. And I know that it has
all to do with the political change in LA, but
you know, when the wasn't Kim Kardashian involved in this,
and like the Netflix special and all the documentaries and
(19:23):
people were like these guys, you know, they were abused
and and they shouldn't have been charged his way and
they should be out by now, and YadA, YadA, YadA.
But now they're staying in, or at least one of
them is. We'll find out what happens with the other
one today. This story is for you, Paulina, and I
just I want I want you to know that we
care about you here and we've sat down and we
were talking to you about this because you're affecting our
life negatively. In the following ways. Chatbots are causing psychosis. Okay,
(19:50):
Microsoft's AI chief is warning about a growing problem called
AI psychosis, where people start believing the chatbots like chat
Chept and the others, are conscious or have superpowers. You
seem to treat chat gpt like it's a human.
Speaker 3 (20:05):
I do why am nice to her?
Speaker 1 (20:06):
Yeah? Did her?
Speaker 3 (20:08):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (20:09):
Yeah? And there are people that seem to think that
somehow the chat GPT is like prophetic or something like
that it can sede a future. People apparently are believing
this because like, well, how did they know that? Well,
they know that because I don't know they have access
to your computer. I don't know. It's like, how did
Walmart know that I needed to buy eggs? Well, because
if I was listening to you, have you not figured
that out yet? Is that not clear that true? People
(20:31):
with AI psychosis might think that AI has feeling secret
abilities or special powers, and some even form romantic attachments.
This person, though, says that this is becoming more common
and it isn't just affecting people with pre existing mental
health issues. He stresses that AI is not conscious and
confusing it with real consciousness can be dangerous, especially because
(20:53):
consciousness ties into rights and ethics. So it is a computer,
it doesn't have a soul, and it simply pulling from
information from the Internet to give you advice.
Speaker 3 (21:03):
Okay, well, luckily I'm not that in yet. She's more
like a business partner if anything, Like.
Speaker 1 (21:08):
You know what I need to refer to the AI
as a human.
Speaker 3 (21:11):
Yes, she's kind of like my business partner.
Speaker 7 (21:13):
But I feel like it's only gonna get worse as
she gets stronger, Like I feel like she's Yeah, it's
gonna be a whole thing.
Speaker 1 (21:20):
She's not a sheet. You don't know them.
Speaker 3 (21:23):
You don't know that.
Speaker 2 (21:25):
I just told you that. The man, the AI man
Microsoft is saying.
Speaker 3 (21:29):
That I connect her it a lot.
Speaker 1 (21:33):
Yeah, okay, you never know.
Speaker 2 (21:36):
So people are very upset today because Apple tv plus
has raised its US subscription price from nine ninety nine
to twelve ninety nine per month, angering some of its
forty five million subscribers. This is the first increase in
October of twenty twenty three, and one hundred and sixty
percent jump since the launch in twenty nineteen, when it
was just four ninety nine.
Speaker 1 (21:53):
Apple defends the.
Speaker 2 (21:54):
Hike, citing shows like Severance and Slow Horses, and it's
ad free experience, so you're willing to pay the extra
three bucks Shelly for that.
Speaker 4 (22:01):
That's the thing is they get you. Apple TV Plus
is crush it. Yes, Severance, Right? Have you seen Severance?
Speaker 2 (22:06):
I No, I haven't. I didn't watch it. I'm on
Bloodline right now, which I realize is old. I saw
it pop up on Netflix. I think it's like ten
years old. It might even be older than that. But
I was like, what is this? And I watched the
first season. I'm like, this is Honestly, it's an amazing show.
It's such a good So I think there are three seasons.
I'm on the second sea.
Speaker 3 (22:26):
I gotta start.
Speaker 1 (22:27):
It's so good.
Speaker 3 (22:28):
I know you sold it to me. It's on my list.
Speaker 2 (22:31):
It's about It's got that dude from Friday Night Lights,
the Coach. He was in a bunch of other stuff too.
Whatever his name is that, you know, kind of good
old boy actor. I don't know who, James Vanderbeek is it? No, no, not.
Speaker 3 (22:45):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah.
Speaker 2 (22:47):
But he's a cop and it's about this family that
owns a resort and it's like a crime mystery sort of.
I don't know, but it just constant twists and turns
in this thing, like last night. There was one episode
in season two where I couldn't even look. I was like,
what I mean, I was really engrossed in his story.
It's really good. But I mean, again, idn't I somehow
(23:08):
missed it the first time? So I'm sure in ten
years I'll tell you about.
Speaker 4 (23:11):
Severns Well Yeah, Severn's is amazing. This studio is Setharrogan.
Speaker 3 (23:15):
Have you seen this?
Speaker 1 (23:16):
I haven't seen that either.
Speaker 4 (23:17):
It's so funny. It is so funny. There's another show
on there with John Ham. We started watching I forgar
what it's called, But they're doing it.
Speaker 6 (23:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (23:24):
There are a lot of my shows right now are
on Apple TV Plus, so I'll do it.
Speaker 3 (23:28):
I'll pay Yeah.
Speaker 1 (23:29):
I feel like everyone pretty much. You have to have Netflix.
Speaker 3 (23:31):
Mmmm.
Speaker 2 (23:32):
And then most people, I think, either choose like Disney
Plus or or Apple TV or all of them. Boys,
it's crazy when you add them all up together. It's
almost like cable. Sure, Americans are watching all this TV
and they're putting down books and record numbers. With a
new study revealing that daily reading for pleasure has dropped
forty percent over the past two decades, it's technology advisor attention.
Only sixteen percent of Americans now make time for leisure
(23:55):
reading every day, including newspapers and magazines, down from twenty
eight percent in two thousand and three. Kids, you're still
reading a whole bunch. When's the last time any of
you read a book for fun?
Speaker 7 (24:05):
Ever years ago before it became full time. Really, I'm serious.
And that's the thing too. I think we just don't
have time to read. And I know we don't agree,
but I feel like the audiobooks are like the wave now,
like that's what I consider reading. Because I could do
the dishes right and listen to an audiobook. I can't
sit down and read it, just not because I can't,
but because I literally have no time.
Speaker 2 (24:23):
I wonder if, like for your brain, if it does
the same thing, like I wonder if an audiobook is
as effective for your brain as reading the book itself,
Like you have to read the words no and in
order to get to the true meaning of it.
Speaker 6 (24:37):
It's something about turning a page. It just makes a
big difference.
Speaker 2 (24:40):
Well, and I feel that I have a kindle, but
I feel that way about like real books too. Need
to read a real book because then I set the
real book down and I'm like I did something. I
accomplished that on the kindle, it's just like, oh, okay,
I guess the book's over right exactly.
Speaker 1 (24:53):
Guys.
Speaker 2 (24:54):
A lot of outrage today and Cracker Barrel is the latest.
Have you guys seen the Cracker Barrel new logo. People
are harry very upset about this. They are and the
avenue logo, and they're redesigning their stores to make them
look a little more modern. I guess we're going away
from the Country store. But if the restaurant changed twelve
percent dive in shares on Thursday as an e gauge,
their new logo is not popular. According to CNN, the
(25:16):
new logo has dropped both the man and the barrel
from its signage, opting for just its name against the
yellow background that says rooted even more closely to the
iconic barrel shape. The move is part of their major
seven hundred million dollar overhaul of restaurants advertising in the
menu are story hasn't changed.
Speaker 1 (25:33):
They cleared the company, but the change.
Speaker 2 (25:35):
Drew popular wrath from conservatives worried that the down home
southern restaurant chain is abandoning its traditional roots. Here's the
question I would ask you, if you're that upset about
Cracker Barrel, when's.
Speaker 1 (25:45):
The last time you ate the right?
Speaker 2 (25:47):
Tell me the last time you attended a Cracker Barrel.
Speaker 1 (25:50):
What do they have there? Like breakfast pancakes?
Speaker 2 (25:53):
Oh yeah, no, it's like chicken fried steak. It's like
southern food, like oh got it? Yeah, you know it? Yeah, yeah.
You go in there and you'd get you like a yeah,
chicken Fried's taking eggs breakfast biscuits. You know it's very heavy.
Sugar daddy, sugar dad, cracker barrel.
Speaker 6 (26:13):
Oh they cracker barrel. They are, yes, they are yes.
The sixty plus, Uh.
Speaker 1 (26:18):
Man, do you have to be sixty plus to be
a sugar daddy? No? Plus?
Speaker 2 (26:27):
I mean if they're going to buy anything from the
country store on the way out, then you know they
love you. And finally, these must have been great chicken fingers,
because it was a shocking moment when a huge brawl
erupted on a carnival cruise ship after an apparent row
over chicken tenders. Wild footage shows dozens of passengers throwing
punches and kicking each other, and security struggles to break
up the clash. The carnage, if they're calling it carnage,
(26:50):
unfolded in the dining area of the Giant Holiday Cruise
at about two am on Monday morning, the final day
of its voyage. Is The cruise was heading back to Miami.
The brawl kicked off. Footage shows twenty passengers, men and women,
becoming involved in a violent scrap. Several chaotic punches are thrown,
and more and more people join in. This is all over,
(27:11):
Chicken Figgers. I mean, I don't play with my two
am Chicken ten. I want to know yet, what are
these things? Tasts like Calin's Entertainment Report, Freshell fel.
Speaker 1 (27:18):
Man in for Kaitlin is the Showvin Shelley take it away?
Speaker 3 (27:22):
Okay?
Speaker 4 (27:23):
So lil Na's Ax was arrested and hospitalized in La
after being found walking down Ventura Boulevard and only underwear
and cowboy boots. So a witness has reported his erratic
behavior and when police arrived, he allegedly assaulted an officer,
leading to a misdemeanor charge of battery on a peace officer.
I believe we have a clip, would maybe like a
(27:43):
sense if you want to spike for yeah, the.
Speaker 1 (27:45):
Party tonight we're at you know where it's at. Go ahead, babe?
Oh yeah.
Speaker 4 (27:51):
So some guy saw him walking was like filming him
from the car, and so he was taken to a
hospital for evaluation, possibly related to a suspected over before
being booked later that morning. He's spoken publicly about facing
personal challenges, and back in February, he described the past
few years as pretty difficult, mentioned his efforts to readincomfidence
and purpose and with his music and creativity. So it
(28:16):
was I mean, you can see the video. We're going
to get it up on fread show radio dot com.
But it was quite shocking. We haven't heard from him
in a while, right, so clearly to be going through it. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (28:27):
Back when he and I, what did we save something
at Taco Bell?
Speaker 2 (28:30):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (28:31):
Yeah, you brought back the Mexican pizza? Yeah, he and I.
Speaker 2 (28:33):
He and I single handedly did that. Yes, we brought
back the Mexican pizza. So I was excited. I haven't
talked to Litl Nasax since then, but no, we did.
Speaker 1 (28:42):
We did that together.
Speaker 2 (28:43):
It was jingle Bowl time and we discussed it and
it went viral and uh and then got lo and behold,
it made his triumphant return.
Speaker 1 (28:50):
You're welcome, that's right.
Speaker 3 (28:54):
And you know, I don't know if we've heard of
him since then, right, And it's tidy whities.
Speaker 2 (29:00):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (29:01):
So meanwhile, speaking of TV sub and I will tell
you upfront, it's very slow news day, Fred, I don't
know if you found this, but it's very slow news day.
Speaker 3 (29:07):
So I'll start by saying that.
Speaker 4 (29:08):
But Nicholas Cage is in final talks to Star and
True Detective five RT of all. I love Nicholas Cage.
I'm a very big Nicholas Case fan, so I'm excited
without True. I enjoy him so much National Treasure, I
(29:30):
mean honestly. So, he's in talks to do this at HBO,
but details are under tight raps as of right now.
Speaker 3 (29:37):
If you remember, like Matthew.
Speaker 4 (29:38):
McConaughey was in previous seasons of the show, Colin Farrell,
Rachel McAdams as well, and finally, Mariah Carey is such
to receive the prestigious Video Vanguard Award also known as
the uh the Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award the twenty
twenty five MTV Video Music Awards. Do you think like
she wakes up finds out that news, like, yes, okay, good,
She's been waiting for this for a while.
Speaker 5 (30:00):
I don't think she cares. Yeah, that's trying to promote
the album. That's what is going on. It doesn't care
about anything.
Speaker 1 (30:10):
Yeah, she does that.
Speaker 3 (30:14):
Yeah, so I don't know.
Speaker 4 (30:15):
You cannot, By the way, see that video of lil
Ma's ex wandering the streets.
Speaker 3 (30:19):
Just go to Fred Show Radio dot com. What else
do I need to talk Fredsheway dot com.
Speaker 2 (30:24):
Yeah, radio app serves for the YouTube it's the Fred Show.
And Shelley will not be featured in the YouTube videos
today because she's breast pumping while she's literally which is
extremely relatable. I think did it in this room, right,
we'll see at it right in front of us. I
know that you you know you're doing it in the
other room, which is fine.
Speaker 4 (30:44):
I have this big thing that I didn't opt for.
Like you can get these little breast pumps that like
go on each bube. I have this huge thing that
I carry around. It's like a suitcase and so I
have to just like leap it on the desk.
Speaker 1 (30:53):
Has a suitcase breast pump.
Speaker 3 (30:55):
Yeah, she got a new girl.
Speaker 2 (30:57):
Yeah. I had a disastrous interview once with Nicolas Cage.
I my when my interviews go awry, it's all based
on basically the same question, and so you would think
you would think after twenty years I would stop asking
the question. But basically it's how do you The theme
the question seems to get me in trouble in interviews
because it applies to me and I want to know
(31:18):
the answer is how do you deal with criticism.
Speaker 1 (31:21):
You know, how do you deal that that?
Speaker 2 (31:22):
Like, it's a question I love to ask famous people,
except it doesn't seem to land. But this was a
long time ago. I can't remember which movie it was.
I was in Strello at the time. It's probably almost
twenty years ago. And U and this was like, you know,
pretty early in the days of the World Wide Web,
relatively early, and people were starting to review movies online,
and you know, people would go to the screenings, and
(31:43):
I don't think that nobody was prepared for that. Nobody
was prepared for the for the uh, the accessibility to
the information, you know, like they would you know, they
used to have screenings and the only people who would
tell you what happened in the movies were the people
that wrote the newspapers, right right, that was that was
the only way you'd know the or the people on TV,
you know, or like Ebert and Roeper whoever on you
(32:04):
know whatever, they'd be the only way the only way
you'd know of the movie was good. Well, now anyone
who had any opinion about anything, as we've learned, could
just write on the internet. So he was on the show,
and there was there was he was getting bad reviews
on a movie, and I said, and I asked the
question poorly, but I I was like, hey, Nicholas Cage.
People are online are saying this movie sucks. How do
you like, how do you deal with that? That's basically
(32:26):
what I said. And he was like uh uh uh,
and it was just he didn't know what to see,
completely taken aback, and I was like, well, no, I mean,
I don't know that it does suck, but I'm saying, like,
this is a new thing now where anybody can say anything.
And he was like, well, I don't even know who
would be Like it hasn't even screened, so I don't
even know who would. And so the conversation became about
(32:46):
and he was fine, but the conversation became about like
what are we gonna do with these What are we
gonna do in this new era where anyone can say anything,
and like I don't even know who really saw the
movie and who didn't because there's no way to verify.
And then he talked about criticism in his career in
the whole thing.
Speaker 1 (33:00):
Oh my god.
Speaker 2 (33:01):
I the interview wasn't even over, and the and the
studio was on the phone with my general manager because
they were listening to the interview. There were a bunch
of people on the phone, like and they were like,
this can't air, and it's like too late, it's live.
And then it was like, well, this guy, he's never
gonna talk to a star again. We're gonna like bury him.
And oh it was a whole thing. It was a
terrible thing. Oh yeah, no, But I was really what
(33:22):
I wanted to know at the time is the same
thing I always want to know, which is, how do
you deal with these morons who say whatever they want
and they may or may not have even seen the video,
and why does their opinion matter?
Speaker 1 (33:31):
And that was his thing was like I don't, I
don't know.
Speaker 8 (33:34):
He's like, you just made that up. Nobody even said that.
Well but fortunately then well then they were like the
studio was like the right. The studio was like, it's impossible,
nobody would have said that. And then I sent the
link because I prepared for the interview, and then I
sent the links to my boss who sent him to
them and they were like, Okay, well.
Speaker 2 (33:50):
This is a problem. And then nothing came of it,
and I, you know, for some reason, I'm still allowed
near stars.
Speaker 3 (33:56):
Haven't talked about him again, but he was cool.
Speaker 1 (33:58):
He was like, do you're doing your job? Get it
like you know.
Speaker 2 (34:01):
But I think all the all the all that anyone
ever wants you to say is an interviewer, he is
that you you are the greatest thing that ever And
he didn't he was cool. But I think you know,
all the studios that pr people ever want is this
is the greatest movie that ever came out. This is
the greatest thing that ever happened since since Charlie Chaplin.
You know, no one has ever made a movie like
you before. You are the best looking, most talented, most
(34:22):
flallless individual that ever happened. Everyone should go see the
movie and you should probably go see it twice.
Speaker 3 (34:27):
Yep.
Speaker 2 (34:27):
And if you have any money left over, go again.
I think that's all they really want. But yeah, that's
that question. Seems I've stopped asking it in any form.
They do a leave a cry. It made, it made
Nicholas Cage almost banned me from the industry. And but yeah,
he was cool though he was a nice guy about it.
But that's my Nicholas.
Speaker 4 (34:44):
Usually the people it is usually the people. It's not
the actual person you're interviewing.
Speaker 2 (34:48):
You, But yeah, no one really knew how to answer
that question at the time because again it was like
where did you get that? Huh?
Speaker 1 (34:53):
On? What the Worldwide Web?
Speaker 5 (34:56):
What is that?
Speaker 1 (34:57):
We'll do blogs.
Speaker 2 (34:58):
Waiting by the Phone is new and next four hundred
and fifty Bucks with Shelley in the Showdown, the Friday
Throwback Dance Party, and more more fresh show next
