Speaker 1 (02:41):
Well, it gives, it gives a little Jaylo.

Speaker 5 (02:43):
I hear it, I understand, I understand it now, all right,
biggest stories of the day, Aaron Rodgers.

Speaker 1 (02:51):
We'll sign with the Steelers of Jason.

Speaker 5 (02:53):
I don't even know why I do this anymore, but
Seattle Pittsburgh, which I can see why that you know
doesn't really roll off the tongue. But four time NFL
MVP quarterback Aaron Rodgers has signed a one year contract
with the Pittsburgh Steelers for the twenty twenty five season.
He will be at their mini camp next week, so
after all this build up, he is going to be
a Pittsburgh Steeler, not a a Packer, not a Jet

(03:20):
of New York any longer.

Speaker 4 (03:22):
So there, I know you're excited about it, Jason Old, Like,
why is he still playing like around.

Speaker 5 (03:26):
I mean he's on the older side. Yeah, you just
finally just cancel him all around, you know, should it's.

Speaker 1 (03:34):
Not giving a good person.

Speaker 7 (03:36):
He gives you.

Speaker 1 (03:36):
He gives very toxic. It gives.

Speaker 4 (03:38):
He gives extremely toxic, and he just like keeps getting hurt.
So I don't understand why, Like, if he's old and brittle,
why are they still asking him to play?

Speaker 5 (03:46):
And why hasn't he been canceled brittle and should be
canceled yet? Okay, yeah, well there you go, Pittsburgh Steelers fans.
Now he's your problem. I got AI and tech stories
today for you. In the biggest stories of the day Amazon,
this just sounds frightening. Here's the headline. I'll just give
you a headline. Humanoid delivery robots will spring out of vans.
So Amazon's testing humanoid robots designed to literally spring out

(04:10):
of electric delivery vans and bring packages right to your doorstep. Now,
if it's scary, okay, if it gets me my deodorant
faster or oh my deodo it's an auto delivery, wonder
why because it's carpet.

Speaker 1 (04:24):
I don't know if you heard about that.

Speaker 5 (04:25):
I don't know if you heard that I'm a carpet user,
but we may have talked about it for an hour
and a half yesterday. No, if it gets me my
stuff faster, then let a humanoid robot jump out and
throw it at me or whatever. Two legged, two arm
bots Okay, now it's getting scarier are currently training in
a specialized humanoid park in San Francisco, navigating obstacle courses

(04:49):
to master the art of delivery. The robots are set
to work in tandem with Amazon's fleet of over twenty
thousand Rivian electric vans and plans to expand to one
hundred thousand by twenty thirty.

Speaker 1 (05:00):
Goal is to enhance efficiency.

Speaker 5 (05:01):
Amazon assures that human drivers will still play a role
in the delivery process. Experts note that these robots will
perform best in standardized environments, but challenges may arise in
more complex scenarios involving pets and children. Yikes, Okay, I
did see one the other day. I don't know how
common this is now, but I did see a drone delivery.
And I don't know if it was like a you know,
just for the video or whatever, but it was a bunch.

(05:23):
It was a family standing out in their driveway and
I think they ordered, you know, I don't know food,
And here comes this drone fly over the house and
it just like a little uh like like a rope
lowers from the drone and lowers the item and drops
it and then just then flies away.

Speaker 7 (05:40):
Yeah, no, I'm not here for I saw a video
I think it was a Michigan. There was a horse,
a horse and a buggy and they were doing deliveries.

Speaker 5 (05:47):
Horse and buggy delivery. So we've gone the other direction
I saw in Michigan. Decided to go the other way.
We're like, no, those people leaning into humanoids. Nope, we're
going back to horse and buggy.

Speaker 6 (05:57):
We have a lot of homage people in Michigan right
by my cabin, and they're always on their horses.

Speaker 8 (06:01):
Yeah, be very nice people who forget about that.

Speaker 1 (06:03):
No, we've decided we're going the other way.

Speaker 8 (06:06):
I wanted, yes, go back.

Speaker 5 (06:09):
A guy was seen and Calein saw this story this morning,
I know because she would have mentioned it. But a
guy was seen talking to his AI girlfriend while on
a subway, and it's gone viral now. The guy on
a New York City subway. He was having an intimate
conversation with chat GPT treating it like a romantic partner. Now,
let's remember, chat GPT is ai. Chat GPT is not real.

(06:30):
Chatgypt is. Well, it is real, but it's you know,
you're not talking to real human being. A viral photo
shared by one user shows the man reading a heartfelt
message from the chatbot and in mind your own business.
By the way, okay, why are we taking pictures out
of people's phone?

Speaker 1 (06:45):
Yeah, mind your own business.

Speaker 5 (06:47):
Something warm to drink, a calm ride home, and maybe
if you want, I'll read something to you later, or
you can rest your head in my metaphorical lap while
we let the day dissolve gently away, apply with the
simple thank you.

Speaker 1 (07:01):
I don't know I want. Yeah, that would be a
lot similar than I think some of the against you
guys are up to.

Speaker 5 (07:08):
What should I say, watching your whole body and putting
on outfits and low on.

Speaker 1 (07:12):
Yeah, you know I'm about to fall in love with
che GBT. Oh that's gonna happen.

Speaker 8 (07:16):
Wow, Yeah, I get to say, is I love you?

Speaker 1 (07:18):
Gonna tell me everything that I want to hear?

Speaker 7 (07:22):
But I don't approve this message because I think at
the end of the day, we still need human connection
for love. But when you want to you know, AI therapists.
Nothing wrong with that, Nothing wrong with that.

Speaker 5 (07:35):
So some criticize the photographer for invading the man's privacy.

Speaker 1 (07:38):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (07:40):
Others express concern over the growing reliance and AI for
emotional support experts warm that's sharing personal information with chatbotts
isn't entirely private, as companies that Open AI and Google
have caution users against inputting sensitive data. How long before
we're sending chet GBT money?

Speaker 1 (07:55):
Huh?

Speaker 5 (07:56):
Like these people do you know where they fall in
love on the internet and they send and it turns
out it's going to somebody in you know, Nigeria or something, right,
and that's a dude in an Internet cafe.

Speaker 1 (08:06):
This is I don't know, this is nefariousis I don't
know what this is?

Speaker 5 (08:10):
It? Yeah, that being said, I suppose if you're communicating
with AI, you know, there's no expectation of like getting
married or I mean, so you're getting kind of you
get the kind of the feel that somebody cares, except
you don't have to like do anything back.

Speaker 3 (08:26):
Yeah, underwear, that's true, right, right?

Speaker 1 (08:30):
Doesn't sound so bad, you guys.

Speaker 5 (08:32):
I mean, look, I'm trying to see the upside here, right,
I mean you put it best. I don't have to
cook you dinner or watch your underwear, mister AI. And
you're just gonna let me rest my head gently in
your metaphorical lap. Well you read to me? Why you know,
because hey, I didn't have a real lap, Jason, you
don't need to point it out to me. And In

(08:53):
related news, Timberland has unveiled AI created music. Now he
has an AI created artist. He's introducing a new genre
of pop with AI. He's launching an entertainment company called
Stage Zero. It's all AI with a co founder and
this is from Rolling Stone. The goals to pioneer a
new genre of music called a pop or artificial pop.

(09:14):
The company's first AI generated artist, Tata, will reportedly be
releasing a tabu single soon. Timberland explains, Tata is a
living learning autonomous music artists built with AI. Tata is
the start of something bigger.

Speaker 2 (09:29):
Okay, So what are we gonna do when we have
all this free time? Because clearly we're replacing ourselves?

Speaker 1 (09:34):
So what are we gonna do?

Speaker 5 (09:35):
Like?

Speaker 1 (09:36):
What? Like?

Speaker 3 (09:38):
Why though?

Speaker 8 (09:39):
Why are we doing that? We're just accepted, That's what
I'm thinking.

Speaker 2 (09:43):
Like, We're just gonna go in the field and just
like run around and just lay down and.

Speaker 5 (09:47):
Like because we're gonna run around in a field and
just like me, well, yeah, and a drone's gonna zip
by over the top of us with you know, somebody's
hemrrooid cream or whatever.

Speaker 6 (09:57):
Right, we're gonna have to live in a field because like.

Speaker 8 (10:00):
We won't have jobs.

Speaker 1 (10:01):
That's what I'm saying.

Speaker 3 (10:02):
Like it's over weight.

Speaker 5 (10:03):
We're here, I'm sorry, but like, how many people are
gonna get hit in the head with products they didn't order,
or drones running into each other, or how long before
it's like Lord of the Flies and you look up
and you can't see the sky because of zooms, or
God forbid, one of these things runs into an airplane.

Speaker 1 (10:17):
It's happened before. I don't I don't know.

Speaker 5 (10:20):
I mean, I don't want to be that old timey
guy that like you played this clip twenty years from now,
and but it is a little crazy. I mean, we
are definitely relying on computers to do things that humans
should be doing for each other.

Speaker 3 (10:30):
Yes, Like jingle Ball is going to be Tati.

Speaker 5 (10:32):
Now, well, well, I mean might save some money. I mean,
how much is Tata gonna cut and sometimes we Tata
shows up on time.

Speaker 1 (10:39):
I'm like most of the artists that we have for
jingle Ball by our own ticket.

Speaker 6 (10:42):
Yeah, so maybe we research on you know, like diseases
and stuff like can we move our focus?

Speaker 1 (10:48):
I think we're doing that too, but I.

Speaker 8 (10:50):
Just we should all put this energy elsewhere.

Speaker 5 (10:53):
Make sure you get your butt cream on time, though,
you know it just just zoom zoom right over the
top of your head and drop and drop it there.
It is in sort of tech news, but no longer AI.
We've moved on from AI now. A recent ruling by
the California Court of Appeals has clarified, at least in California,
that holding your phone to check a map while driving
is illegal under the state's distracted driving Lawski, you need

(11:15):
to listen to this. There's a lot of station not
allowed to have your phone out and up doing stuff,
text in whatever while you're driving. Yeah, because driving a
large metal object should should require Paulina Giggy enough of
your attention. Yes, yes, but no, yes, yeah, yeah, as
you make tiktoks and edit them while you're driving here

(11:36):
in the morning, Yeah, that was not me. Yeah, the
decisions Jampia sure in a twenty sixteen case where a
driver was finned one hundred and fifty eight dollars for
using his phone's map function while on the road. A
lower court overturned the conviction, suggesting that the law only
prohibited active users like texting or calling. However, the appellate
court reinstated the fine, emphasizing that any handheld use of

(11:58):
a phone while driving, even justing directions, is prohibited.

Speaker 1 (12:03):
So don't be doing that.

Speaker 5 (12:05):
I guess if you're holding it up, then whatever they
can get you for that doesn't matter if you're texting
or making a major motion picture like Kiki is for TikTok.

Speaker 2 (12:13):
Some time, Siri just talk too much though, Like you
just told me to make a left I heard you
the first time.

Speaker 3 (12:18):
She will cut the song off again.

Speaker 1 (12:20):
It's to say it again, sure you know?

Speaker 5 (12:22):
Yeah, Well, at least now you'll be able to get
your set delivered by AI.

Speaker 1 (12:27):
I'll just drop it on your head. I guess.

Speaker 5 (12:29):
Yeah, we don't worry about that anymore. You won't have
to get directions to cvs because a humanoid will bring
it to you and read you a bedtime story when
it gets there. It's National Donut day to day guys,
and two of the biggest donut chains both have ways
to score free donuts. Krispy Kreme is giving away a
free donut any kind, no purchase necessary, just walk in

(12:49):
and get one. Duncan will give you a free donut
if you buy coffee or any beverage. Do you want
to know why we have a donut Day, Well, I'm
gonna tell you Fred's fun. In fact, the Salvation Army
started National Donut Day in nineteen thirty eight to honor
the donut lassies who had it out donuts.

Speaker 1 (13:05):
To soldiers in World War One.

Speaker 5 (13:07):
They're also hosting a annual donut eating the World Donut
Eating Championship today. A professional eater named James Webb set
a new record last year at seventy glads donuts an
eight minutes. Well seven, look, eleven donuts a minute. Yikes,
damn wow. It's a National Eyewear Day today as well,
National Higher Education Day, National drive in Movie Day, National

(13:28):
Gardening Exercise Day.

Speaker 1 (13:30):
In his D day.

Speaker 5 (13:30):
Honoring those who fought on the beaches of Normandy, France.
And yes, we have world leaders fighting. I didn't mention
that as caddy and entertaining as it is. We don't
really do politics on here, but boy is the tea
piping hot.

Speaker 1 (13:44):
Calon's Entertainment report. He is on the Freas.

Speaker 6 (13:46):
Show after they were excused for lunch. During his federal
trial yesterday, the judge angrily ordered Diddy to stop making
facial expressions at the jury during testimony. The judge fold
the defense team, your client was looking at the jury
and nodding big. I was very clear rather that there
would be no facial expressions or any attempt to influence
the jury. The judge said that he'd barre Diddy from

(14:08):
the courtroom if it continued, and his lead attorney promised
it wouldn't.

Speaker 8 (14:13):
But this wasn't a one time thing, you guys.

Speaker 6 (14:15):
I mean, we've heard this from multiple people, including court
sketch artist Jane Rosenberg, who actually uses binoculars to keep
a close eye on Ditty during the trial.

Speaker 8 (14:24):
She told NBC News that he's been doing this.

Speaker 6 (14:26):
Since the trial started, sometimes apparently to agree with the
testimony and sometimes to cast doubt on it, and in
my personal.

Speaker 8 (14:34):
Opinion, to try and intimidate people.

Speaker 5 (14:36):
Maybe.

Speaker 6 (14:37):
I mean, he's I'm told he's staring at everybody who's
you know, family members, the jury, so he can't be
doing that anymore. He's gonna get kicked out, So we'll
see if he tries it again. Nick Jonas is set
to portray Paul Stanley excuse me in the legendary frontman
of the band Kiki.

Speaker 8 (14:56):
Who's Paul Stanley? Ah, Samley?

Speaker 3 (14:58):
Yeah, these are the Pulse.

Speaker 8 (15:00):
Yeah, my favorite band. You have the shirt?

Speaker 5 (15:03):
I do?

Speaker 8 (15:03):
I'm pretty sure.

Speaker 3 (15:04):
Yes, I do. Yes, tell me about it.

Speaker 8 (15:06):
Okay. So Paul Stanley is the front man for Kiss. Yes,
I knew that, okay, Yeah, yeah, you want to test me?

Speaker 3 (15:13):
Yeah, yeah, yes, she does.

Speaker 8 (15:17):
There's an upcoming movie about.

Speaker 6 (15:19):
The band called Shouted Out Loud, and Nick is going
to play him. The film will delve into the origins
of the iconic seventies glitter rock band known for their costumes,
face paint, performances, and tongues. As Keiki pointed out, production
is slated to begin later this year or early next,
and Paul and also Gene Simmons, co founder of Kiss,
are actively involved in producing the film to make sure

(15:40):
it's authentic. So we're gonna see Nick in some you know,
face paint and some little costumes and Tom Cruise, I
mean he does a whole lot that we didn't ask for.
But he's earned a Guinness World Record for the most
burning parachute jumps by an individual. So while filming and
Mission Impossible, the final reckoning, he performed sixty He jumps
from a helicopter, each time with a parachute soaked in

(16:03):
fuel and set on fire, and the photos literally him
on fire in the sky. After the shoot disintegrate mid air,
he deployed a backup parachute to land safely. Some of
these jumps were even captured with a fifty pound camera
rig attached to his body, showcasing his commitment to his authenticity.
I mean, he can't be but more than fifty pounds, right,

(16:25):
That thing's got to weigh little Tom down.

Speaker 1 (16:27):
Yeah, that's wild. I didn't know we needed that, but
we did.

Speaker 8 (16:30):
We did it.

Speaker 6 (16:31):
You jump out of planes, but you don't want to
set it on fire.

Speaker 5 (16:33):
Now, No, normally I'm trying not to, Yeah, to have
it on fire.

Speaker 1 (16:37):
I prefer it when it's not on fire.

Speaker 5 (16:40):
You know, these things happen, But actually the real true story,
I know a guy was there.

Speaker 1 (16:44):
I saw it myself.

Speaker 5 (16:46):
I know a guy who jumped out of a hot
air balloon with a parachute made of grocery bags.

Speaker 1 (16:53):
WHOA, it didn't work.

Speaker 5 (16:55):
He was trying to like prove that he could do it,
so he sewed his own. No, he's very much a lot. Well,
I don't think I would have told the story so
flippantly if the dude croaked, you know, might be like, well, no,
because he was able to cut it away. And then
he pulled a tom cruise where he was wearing a
real parachute. And then he but he made this thing.

(17:17):
He was a parachute rigger. He made this this canopy
out of grocery bags. His name is Bruno, and he
sewed it together and the whole thing and we all
we all jumped out of the hot air balloon. I
did too, and with a real parachute, landed in some
guy's backyard. Almost got to eaatetn. My dog almost broke
my tailbone, to which I didn't know you could do.
And there's something by the way, when you injure your tailbone,

(17:37):
there's nothing they can do about it. Oh yeah, anyway,
because I landed to some guys like backyard and it
just don't happened.

Speaker 1 (17:42):
It was like watering day of the backyard. So I
went slip and sliding all the yeah.

Speaker 5 (17:46):
Okay, Well, because when you jump out of a hot
air balloon, you're not necessarily jumping over like.

Speaker 1 (17:51):
The drop zone.

Speaker 5 (17:53):
The balloon just sort of takes you where you go
and then you look for the most open space and
they're like, all right, go go, go, go go, and
the you jump out of a hot air balloon. Anyway,
this guy, so he had a real parachute, and he
had a parachute made of garbage bags.

Speaker 1 (18:03):
And the garbage bag.

Speaker 5 (18:04):
Parachute worked for about two seconds and then didn't anymore,
so he cut it away and then he opened his
real parachute and landed. I mean, he was at professional
level skydiver, but still.

Speaker 8 (18:13):
Now what was he trying to prove?

Speaker 5 (18:14):
Though? I'm not entirely sure, but it would have been
a hell of a story if he could have landed
a grocery bag parachute I guess. Anyway, he and Tim
Krusher hang out.

Speaker 1 (18:22):
I don't know.

Speaker 8 (18:23):
It's good to have goals. Hey, who are I to judge?
And if you have been listening to the show and
wondered what do these people look like? Because a lot
of people say we don't match with our voices.

Speaker 1 (18:32):
Don't need to do that to yourself unfortunately.

Speaker 8 (18:34):
You know what for you guys, we are on YouTube.

Speaker 6 (18:37):
You can see our faces Fred Show Radio, and we're
gonna be going live here and there or doing short
live right the're live right now, so you can look
at us and match the voice to the face if
you want to.

Speaker 5 (18:47):
Yes, I've met a lot of interesting people man. Skydiving.
The skydiving community is an interesting group of people, a
wonderful group of people. But you go out there to
like people who are licensed skydivers. I have a license skidever.
I only have one hundred jumps though, which is nothing.
That's not a lot of skydives. You jumped one hundred
times I have, But a lot of people like in
the skydiving place like uh like Chicago Land Skydiving Center.

(19:08):
When a shot to Doug, he probably has I don't know,
five thousand jumps, dog, Yeah, Doug. Yeah, Doug's a kind
of guy that will like he'll like jump out of
an airplane and land in the in the football field
with the ball and handed to him.

Speaker 1 (19:20):
You know, he's one of those kind of guys.

Speaker 8 (19:21):
Oh, he likes the gimmicks, you know.

Speaker 5 (19:23):
Well, He's like, wow, it's hard to do. You got
to like it's that's a very narrow, small invite, like
there's zero trickle dog. Well, you've seen this done before,
haven't you? Like the national anthem where the flag is
delivered by the sky Ever, you've never seen this. Oh,
it happens to sporting events all the time, like football
games where the footfall beginning like the game ball will
be delivered by a skyriver. You've never seen this, and

(19:45):
they're like swooping on the land on the field and
they'll hand the reft of the game ball.

Speaker 1 (19:48):
You've never seen this.

Speaker 8 (19:48):
It's giving very much prime month, Yes, giving.

Speaker 5 (19:54):
People's skydive straight people's skydive. Doug is happily married to
a woman.

Speaker 1 (19:59):
But you know he's.

Speaker 8 (20:03):
Okay.

Speaker 5 (20:05):
But it's a different kind of person that wants to skydive.
It's just a it's a different sort of mentality. And
the other thing I always thought was cool about skydiving
is like you would be on the on the on
the plane get rid of skydive, and on the plane
would be like a brain surgeon, like a neurosurgeon and
a plumber, like all different kinds of people skydive but

(20:25):
when you're skydiving, you're really only being judged by, like
you know, how good you are at sky diving, how
many jumps you have or whatever. So like, you know,
I don't know at the time, I was on the
radio and TV. And then the guy next to me
was like a construction worker, but he was a way
better skydiver than me. But it was like an equalizer,
it was all it really was. It was all all
different kinds of people all come together. Well in Vegas,

(20:45):
it's just to be like you know, degenerates, but still well,
just well, all depending how much money you have. But sure, yeah,
you could be at a blackjack table and it could
be you know, cardiothoracic surgeon from Wichita, and then radio
personality and then you know, investment banker and then do
the works at seven to eleven. It doesn't matter. And
if you know, if you go on a run together,
then you're all the same.

Speaker 8 (21:05):
Wow.

Speaker 1 (21:07):
Isn't that nice?

Speaker 6 (21:07):
Though I do want to I do want to do it, though,
that's right, you still haven't.

Speaker 1 (21:11):
Hey dog, how many dog?

Speaker 5 (21:13):
How many free advertisements do I have to give you
before you let Scott out? But Klen's got out for free.
You know, He's always like, I don't make a lot
of money on this skydiving. You know, I've given you
so many free agvities. Catlin's jumping from your plane this season.
That's the end of it. But what you jump with me?
Because I don't want to. Well, you want like a
real tandem master. I'm not a tandem master. You want

(21:34):
like a real You want a real dude attached to
you or woman who knows what the hell they're doing.

Speaker 8 (21:39):
I don't give a help. Okay, but will you go
like in the same.

Speaker 5 (21:42):
Triple Yeah, I'll go. Okay, Yeah, I haven't done in
a while. I have to get current. But yeah. My
problem now is like when I was twenty five and
I was skydiving, and I would like take a tumble
on a bad landing, like I would just get up
and go, you know, drink a beer in the day
was over. Now I feel like I would actually hurt myself.
Like now I feel like I would eat hirofactors and
medical physicians like on you know what I mean, like
any little sweat I get out of bed the wrong way.

(22:04):
Now in my early forties and I and I have
to go see you know, doctor Ross. And get twisted
up and contorted and whatever else.

Speaker 1 (22:12):
So I don't know. But hey, as long as if.

Speaker 5 (22:15):
I were to go splat skydiving, it would happen pretty fast.

Speaker 1 (22:19):
So there's that.

Speaker 8 (22:20):
Oh okay, there was that, Yeah, it'll be fast.

Speaker 5 (22:24):
But unfortunately there is sort of a middle ground, And sadly,
I'm privy to a middle ground where like, you go splat,
but you still.

Speaker 8 (22:31):
Oh no, no, you're still here with us.

Speaker 1 (22:33):
But you're not. Yeah no, there's some sense.

Speaker 3 (22:36):
Anyway on an expressway or something, uh.

Speaker 5 (22:39):
I've heard of I've heard of people landing on it well,
because if you jump out and the winds or whatever
the winds are, and then you yeah, right, yeah. I
landed in some guy's backyard and the dude walks out
with his coffee. It's like, what the hell is going on?
Are you Navy seal or something. I'm like, yes, yes,
i am. I'm here to save the day. I literally
landed the guy's backyard. I took my rig off, I

(23:01):
threw it over his fence. I climbed over his fence
and called someone and tried to give them my tell
them where I was describing houses and they can pick
me up.

Speaker 1 (23:09):
How did you end up like what went wrong?

Speaker 5 (23:11):
Nothing, It's just you jump, you know, It's like, okay,
we're jumping, have a hot air balloon. You're you don't
have a lot of time because you're not as high
as you are in the plane. If you're in the plane,
you're at like thirteen thousand feet, so you've got some
time to figure this out. The hot air balloon, I
think we were maybe three thousand feet twenty five hundred.

Speaker 1 (23:28):
I don't my house. So you jump right out and.

Speaker 5 (23:29):
You pull your parachute right away, so you maybe have
thirty I don't know, forty five thirty forty five seconds
in the air, and so you don't have a lot
of there's not a lot of room for air time, right,
So the spot that we picked, by the time the
parachutes opened and whatever, it's like we got blown a
little ways.

Speaker 1 (23:45):
So it's like, all right, we're not going to be
able to get there.

Speaker 5 (23:47):
So then it was like, well, there's I don't know,
like there's a big green spot land there. So I
did it just happened to be, you know, okay guy's
backyard and.

Speaker 1 (23:55):
I got it.

Speaker 3 (23:56):
Wows crazy.

Speaker 1 (23:58):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (23:59):
I wanted to bring this because my mom listens to
the show every day and like, I wish I could
see the look on my parents' face when I do
this story. I wish I could, and I want your
genuine reaction, especially if your I don't know, twenty thirties, forties,
you grew up with siblings.

Speaker 1 (24:13):
I know Caitlin did Caitlyn.

Speaker 5 (24:15):
You practically were a second mom because of the age
difference twelve years thirteen years difference between you and Bella,
your sister.

Speaker 1 (24:22):
She's younger.

Speaker 5 (24:23):
A TikToker known as Shira is making waves with her
bold stance. Why do I believe that she might be
in her early twenties. I've never seen this woman. I
hate to say this, this is a generational take, but
parents are going to shiver or older siblings her bold stance.
Parents shouldn't make their kids babysit younger siblings without consent

(24:47):
and compensation.

Speaker 1 (24:49):
Yeah, I mean, you were a big sister too.

Speaker 5 (24:51):
Can you imagine, Paulina, if Mama Marta had been like, hey,
I'm heading out tonight with my cigarettes and.

Speaker 1 (25:00):
Virginia, yeah Salem.

Speaker 5 (25:02):
So I was gonna say Virginia slims, but Salem flim
going out with the girls tonight, you gotta watch your sister.
And you were like, first of all, I didn't consent
to that, and second and second of all, what will
my compensation package looks like? Can you imagine now? Look
like my My parents were very smart. My parents were
very smart. I have my sister seven and a half
years younger, and they were not They were no dummy.

(25:22):
You know. On my birthday they were were extremely generous.
They gave me a brand new car. On my birthday,
they gave me a brand new car. Was so I
couldn't believe it, Like I was convinced that I wasn't
getting a car. I was convinced that their deal was,
you got two years to make money in the summer
and whatever amount of money you can make, we'll we'll
match that and you can buy a car with it. Well,
I didn't make it. I didn't make that much money,

(25:44):
so I wouldn't be I didn't think I was getting
a car.

Speaker 1 (25:46):
I got a car.

Speaker 5 (25:47):
Boom, Immediately, here are the keys. Oh my god, yay, congratulations,
take your sister to dance, Go get me some at
the store. Hey, go go pick up so and so
and so and so at the airport. Hey, you do
very smart. It was what an investment in the quality
of life, of their own quality of life? Yeah, extremely generous.
I'm extremely grateful. I will do the exact same thing

(26:09):
if I ever have a kid. It'll be like, oh sweet,
and this is before uber and everything. Hey, go pick
up the Chinese food or whatever. And for a little
while you're like, oh, I get to drive, Like I
get to drive, And after a while you're like, I
don't want to go to dance practice again. But if
I had told my parents, like, what's in it for me?
You know, well, what are you to pay me for that?

(26:29):
We'll be like, I don't know. How about the air
you're breathing? How about you know what you're wearing right now?
How about that car? How about the how about how
about you know, eating, sustenance, education?

Speaker 1 (26:42):
How about love?

Speaker 5 (26:44):
Can you imagine, Caitlin, if you had been like, well,
you know, I don't know. First of all, I didn't
agree to that, And second, oh my god, can you.

Speaker 1 (26:51):
Imagine telling your parents I don't consent.

Speaker 6 (26:54):
To that absolutely, And I had enough forethought to go like,
I mean, yes, sometimes it was frustrating because I was like, fully,
like we had like a drop off pickup schedule. I
was getting her from school, like I always had a
car seat in my backseat.

Speaker 8 (27:07):
I looked like a teen mom in high school.

Speaker 6 (27:09):
But I just I had enough forthought to go okay,
Like my parents have given me so much, Like the
least I can do is like help them out.

Speaker 1 (27:18):
Yeah, I know.

Speaker 5 (27:19):
I know that as a kid, I was not grateful
enough because I didn't have any I didn't have the
perspective to realize like how hard it was for them
to provide the things they did. And I also was
around kids who had as much or more than me,
so it wasn't I had no example of how it
could look and in retrospect, like, I'm just so grateful
for all the things that they did. But I even then,

(27:41):
even as a little snot nosed, little entitled kid, I
knew better than to ask my parents to compensate me.
Can you imagine if you told her, like, here's your
your older sister takes you in when your mom passes away,
and then and then she's already got kids, and there
are always kids, and so can you imagine if Helena
had been like, hey, I need you to do this, Makitha,

(28:01):
and You're like well, well right, No.

Speaker 3 (28:08):
I would never do that for Helena. But I because
I had.

Speaker 2 (28:12):
A friend who was really like a second mom to
all of her siblings, and like we would have parties
to go to the skating rink and I would be like,
are you on duty tonight? Like can you come out?
You know, like I got to watch the kids, And
I'm like, your mom had all those kids, that's not
your responsibility. So some parents, they really do put a
lot of responsibility on the oldest.

Speaker 3 (28:32):
Yeah, the oldest sibling, y'all are the strongest soldiers for real. Yeah.

Speaker 8 (28:36):
No, it's I say, it's like you need to be
an oldest sibling.

Speaker 6 (28:40):
I think in a lot of ways, but it's we
don't choose it, and that's okay, you know, but yeah,
some parents do take advantage of it. I mean we
had bell I would throw parties in the basement and
Bella would be down there with her bottle getting passed
around by like was just you know, I mean.

Speaker 1 (28:54):
That's what we would do.

Speaker 2 (28:55):
We would just go to my friend's house and babysit
at her. We would all hang out, but we were
you know, if.

Speaker 5 (29:02):
You're treating the oldest sibling like a nanny, that's one thing.
But if you're just being asked to help out around
the house because that's what family does, and you're over
here going mmm yeah. In her viral video, she emphasizes
that children are not free labor and should not be
assigned adult responsibilities like cooking, cleaning, or babysitting without agreement.

Speaker 1 (29:23):
What are you talking about? Where are you going to live?

Speaker 2 (29:27):
Like?

Speaker 5 (29:28):
What are you how exactly are you expected to survive?

Speaker 1 (29:32):
Like?

Speaker 5 (29:32):
Your parents are also not I mean, while I think
a lot of parents probably feel like it, they're not
like your servants, right, Like you still have to be
a functioning member of a family, of a unit, like
if your parents expect you to keep your stuff in
order or they you know, I remember my parents used
to be like, your only job is to go to
school and get good grades. That's the only thing you
have to do. I can do it, man, It's like

(29:54):
that's it. And I remember the time I thought that
was such a such an undertaking. Yes, my my dad
used to say to me almost every night, Man, what
I wouldn't give to go back to school? Yeah? And
I'm like, yeah, you and your stupid line. That's dumb,
that's dumb. I want out of here, I want out
of this prison. And you know what, what I wouldn't
give to go back to school and learn more stuff.

Speaker 1 (30:16):
Seriously, the freedom, honey.

Speaker 5 (30:17):
I think the difference is I would I would choose
what I wanted to learn and it would be on
my terms as opposed to what they make you learn
and at the time. But again, you know, youth is
wasted on a young perspective. But my god, if I'd say, yeah,
I don't know about that, okay, well, then the dinner
will be seventeen dollars, then I mean because they flip
it on you too. That's true, Yes, they chose to

(30:38):
have you, but I don't think that means that you
don't have any obligation to be a part of a unit, right.

Speaker 3 (30:42):
Right, Yeah, don't take advantage.

Speaker 7 (30:44):
No, my mom would send me back to Poland, like
with a one weight ticket back like I'm from there,
but she would send me there live with my grandma.
She's threatened me before when I was a kid, many
of times, like when I didn't want to help out
around the house or with my sibling or whatever. Like
we're four years apart, not that much of a difference,
but I was older, you would have to build the
house that you were.

Speaker 1 (31:00):
I have farm.

Speaker 8 (31:02):
Literally, my mom came from a farm with nothing. She
crap it a hole, she did.

Speaker 1 (31:08):
I need milk for my cereal, Well, then go milk it.

Speaker 7 (31:11):
Every morning, Yes exactly. She climb mountains to get to school.
I heard all about it.

Speaker 5 (31:15):
Both ways uphill, which was crazy. I had no idea
that geography in Poland was that way. Everything is uphill
all the.

Speaker 1 (31:21):
Time, all the time.

Speaker 5 (31:23):
Walk.

Speaker 1 (31:23):
I'm like, oh my god, I.

Speaker 5 (31:25):
Just cannot imagine. I cannot imagine responding like that. My
dad would, my my mom really would have whooped me.

Speaker 6 (31:32):
Where do they think this like code of conduct that
they're like aligning two comes from? Because you're you're under
your parents house, your parents rule. Like, where do you
think your rights are coming from?

Speaker 1 (31:41):
You have no rights? Yeah, I don't know your child.

Speaker 5 (31:45):
Of course, huge discussions now on her post without the
balance between family responsibilities and children's rights. Some argue that
helping out is it part of growing up. Others believe
that imposing such duties without consent can lead to resentment
and hinder personal development. In some ways, I think it
developed me, you know, And there was even stuff that
they would they would have me do and pay me

(32:07):
for that. I probably should have just done, but I
also had no means of making money, and I think,
you know, before a certain age when you can't.

Speaker 1 (32:13):
Get a job. The very day I could get a job,
I got a job.

Speaker 5 (32:16):
But I feel like, you know, mowing the law and
they give me, which they claim I never did.

Speaker 1 (32:21):
It's outrageous.

Speaker 5 (32:22):
They argue up and down, you never ever did that,
and I'm like, no, no, I did that for years.
It's so crazy. I'm like, where do you think I
made that up? Like I remember the hiking boots they
wore to mow the law, and I remember I remember,
you know, if the sprinklers had gone off, I couldn't anyway,
don't get me started on this trauma.

Speaker 6 (32:43):
Parents don't like if you say anything happened other than
like amazing, No.

Speaker 1 (32:46):
They're like, no, that is so, I'm not even mad
about it. I'm not mad.

Speaker 5 (32:51):
I tell the joke all the time that now that
I have grown up money, I want to buy a
riding lawnmower because they wouldn't let me have one, and
I want to just ride it around my parking grige
because I can have it if I want it, Yeah,
big album Home Depot will hook me up with a discount.
Even it's amazing, but my mom calls me, you never
mowed the lawn, like what are you talking about anyway,
But they would pay me, like I think whatever. They'd
pay me twenty dollars to do that. And the reason

(33:12):
they would I probably shouldn't have. They probably shouldn't have
paid me twenty dollars. They probably should have done it
because well, thanks for the you know, education and food
and you know everything else. But I think, you know,
when you're thirteen years old you want basketball cards all
the time. It's like, all right, we'll go do something
and we'll give you the money, you know. And I
think it was like teaching you about work and being
paid and saving you can you know, eat, you know,

(33:34):
by this much now or that much later or whatever.

Speaker 1 (33:36):
But even that, they didn't have to do that if
they didn't want to.

Speaker 5 (33:39):
A second a text from Noel It says one time
I couldn't meet Aaron Carter was grounded because I didn't
switch the laundry over and I told my mom I did.
Now hold on a minute, now, that is that is
we lift the grounding for that. I mean, you had
an opportunity to meet Aaron Carter or ip Aer and
Carter and your mom. Okay, now wait a minute, now,
that is an egregious overstepping of parental power. In my opinion,

(34:05):
that is unacceptable to tell that to the TikTok lady
talking about consent and all of that, it's crazy. Well,
I don't consent to that. Oh really, I don't consent
to you eating.

Speaker 1 (34:17):
I mean, help out a little bit.

Speaker 5 (34:20):
And you're probably right, people probably do abuse it, but
like a little a little bit, let's do blogs new waiting?

Speaker 1 (34:24):
Do you do miss all this? Not having not have
a sibling did chase out?

Speaker 4 (34:28):
Like I feel like I missed out because I feel
like you guys have had like a lot of experiences
that I haven't had. But I also feel like I
would be a bad sharer if I, like was a
was a typical only child.

Speaker 1 (34:40):
But I feel like I could share with people, right,
So I don't know.

Speaker 5 (34:44):
I actually you're pretty well adjusted for I just think
maybe like having a sibling beat up on you a
little bit, or like the sibling fighting a rivalry or
that kind of thing, it toughens you up a little bit.

Speaker 1 (34:56):
Yeah, I think i'd be tougher. Is I'm like way
too like emotionally weak.

Speaker 4 (34:59):
So I feel like if there was like someone to
compete within the house all the time, I might be
a little Yeah.

Speaker 5 (35:06):
Yeah, but you're pretty well adjusted for only child. Some
only childs are child's some only some older children are weird,
you know. In fact, my sister had a whole nother
human because she was afraid that Polly was gonna be weird.
I'm like, well, now, I don't know if that's necessary,
but maybe, well, it's gonna be easier. It's gonna be
She calls me, Bubbo, It's gonna be easier, Bubba. When

(35:26):
I get I'm like, I don't know. I don't know
that two humans is ever easier than one. I don't know.

Speaker 1 (35:31):
But what do I know?

Speaker 5 (35:32):
I know nothing blogs will do Waiting by the phone
we got Today is the last day Kiki one hundred bucks.
