Speaker 2 (01:18):
I think the thing is I used to I'm I've
since been clean. I'm not really into him anymore, but
I used to have a crush on Jack Harlow, and
I believe our boss gave him a ton of stuff
to say and he just randomly picked that.

Speaker 3 (01:30):
Oh yeah, so I think I don't think it was
all on him, but it was nice. Yeah. I wish
you would have said something else, like you're so sexy.

Speaker 1 (01:36):
But yeah, you know, he may have. He may have somewhere.
We just hte the cutting cutting the floor, room floor.
May I have no idea morning everybody, Monday, June twenty
thirty is Calein in the morning, Hi.

Speaker 3 (01:48):
Kaliny, good morning, Pul in the morning, Hikking.

Speaker 1 (01:51):
In the morning, morning, Bella Hamen in the morning. I
mean she thinks it is sometimes but it's not. But
you can call and you can text her anytime you want.
Eight five five three five. I can tell that I
don't think she likes. I don't think she likes when
I like poke at her a little bit like I
do sometimes, like we all do. But I think she
takes that on me a little bit. Oh I get
a little attitude. Sometimes I get like a dismissive good morning,

(02:12):
I passed from the hallway. Sometimes Yeah, well she's the
boss and she's you know, she hasn't been satisfied with
the product lately. I guess. Yeah, I'm in trouble. You
get taken out on me. The Entertainment Report will get
to that. When are you working? Okay?

Speaker 2 (02:26):
Beyonce brought out another huge guest during her Cowboy Carter tour,
and I will tell you who was on their iPad
during a very big Broadway show and they're getting called
out for it.

Speaker 1 (02:37):
They brought their whole ass iPad iPad. Oh yeah, you
can't do that.

Speaker 3 (02:43):
No you ever?

Speaker 1 (02:45):
Have you ever had an issue with your phone such
that you had to carry your iPad with you because
that was all you had. They tried to suggest that
to me when I accidentally dropped my phone at a
very high intensity. I may have accidentally dropped it right right,
I dropped it was going very fast speed when I
dropped it into a wall, and I dropped it in
damage wall. But anyway, so I may have done that

(03:07):
once and I went to the store, and there may
not have been much phone left from the dropping that
I dropped it. I know, it's crazy. I was just
what an accident, and I may truly have only been
able to provide the SIM card kind of. So I
may have walked in with the SIM card and they
were like, well, why don't you bring us the phone
and we can I'm like, well we can trade that in.

(03:29):
I'm like anymore. And then they understood. They understood the
assignment like they knew like immediately they work in a
phone store, Like okay, got it. Well, you know, here's
what we can do. We can get you a warranty phone,
I guess or something. You can buy a new phone,
but the one phone's gonna take a while. So what
you could do is just carry your iPad around for
a while and like that'll, you know, until Monday, because

(03:51):
I think this was a Saturday when the dropping of
the phone occurred, and then it was like, hey, we'll
get your phone by monday, but like you can just
carry your iPad around like you want me to carry
my iPad around like a phone, Like you want me
to go to a date with my iPad and its case? Like,
how you doing? What's going on? Well? What's that about?
What is? In case it gets boring, I'm gonna watch it.
I'm right in the middle of something on Netflix, and

(04:11):
I really didn't want to have to interrupt it. So
if you you know, if you see me look down
at the iPad, that means you're boring as hell. Yikes,
But you know it has all the same functionality. So
if you had Wi Fi or if you have the
cellular iPad, if you're one of those people, then well
you'd be fine.

Speaker 2 (04:25):
I could see a mini, but like, if you have
a full size one, that's crazy.

Speaker 3 (04:28):
I mean it would fit in your little cross body
purse that you have.

Speaker 1 (04:31):
Yeah, I don't. I just don't take the crossbody purse
on dates very often, you don't, not regularly. No, I
only wear the cross I wear my crossbody purse to
work only. Okay, Yeah, I believe it's also called a
messenger bag, but a crossbody purse works fine.

Speaker 3 (04:46):
Tomato.

Speaker 1 (04:47):
It's Pride month, and and if that's a prideful thing, fine,
so be it. Maybe a man. A man can wear
a straight man can wear a crossbody purse, like, like
nobody's business crush it, Yeah, just because it's the burkin,
don't I don't. I know you're jealous because you wanted one.

Speaker 3 (05:02):
Yeah, I'm jealous of the actual bag of this that I.

Speaker 1 (05:04):
Wear my burk and every day. Yeah so what so
so a lot of women typically have it so odd,
why can't a guy have it? Go on trendsetter. That's
like you learned a new word over the weekend, za yeah, yeah,

be like, probably not. It sounds like something I wouldn't have.
But then it turns out it turns out I have
a lot of it, right, it does allegedly. Yeah.

helping me.

Speaker 4 (09:53):
Fred Show is on Fred's Biggest Stories of the Day.

Speaker 1 (09:57):
I told you, guys, I went to the that that
Catholic mass funeral, and I felt like an outsider. My
nana would be so disappointed me. I did not get
the new script. No one sent me the adjustment. Right.

Speaker 3 (10:09):
You just show up one day and everything's different, like
it's not cool.

Speaker 1 (10:12):
It's like, I know this part okay, piece with you.
And also it wasn't even that.

Speaker 3 (10:16):
Yeah it was your record stretch for me.

Speaker 1 (10:18):
Yeah, I like, okay, all right, our father, I got it. Okay,
But they did that that was different too too.

Speaker 3 (10:26):
The end of it. It was like they said something
I had no eye.

Speaker 1 (10:28):
I know, I know, my guys, I know. I just
listen to more of that Alex warnsong. You'll understand. If
you don't want to talk about Warren, I don't, then
hear the biggest stories of the day. The Oklahoma City
Thunder our NBA champions after finally finishing off the Indiana
Pacers in Game seven last night. Yeah, the Pacers were
hurt by the loss of their star player Syree Halliburton

(10:49):
at the end of the first quarter. He suffered and
achilles injury and left the court in tears. Very sad.
But game seven I slept right through it. But the
Oklahoma City thunder guys something I never thought I would say,
oklahom Well, I shouldn't say that in recent years maybe,
but who knew NBA champions the Oklahoma City Thunder underdogs.
I am sort of impressed, though not about war, but

(11:10):
about the the B two pilots that were involved in
the war. You know, they take off at a Missouri
they fly over there, they do all that turn around,
come back, neverland. So they're in the air for like
eighteen to twenty four hours, and they have a microwave,
a toilet and something else and a cooler in the
airplane and they just refuel along the way is refueled,
the refuel the airplane. You've never seen this before. They

(11:34):
have airplanes with gas at them, and a pipe attaches
in the air to another airplane, and then it sucks
that they never have to land.

Speaker 3 (11:41):
Yeah, Fred, where would I have seen that?

Speaker 1 (11:43):
What? Everybody knew? They had aircraft refuel You never heard
of a refueler. No, no, you've never heard of this?
Did you not know this?

Speaker 2 (11:49):
No?

Speaker 3 (11:50):
Honey, wait a minute, people didn't know this?

Speaker 4 (11:52):
No?

Speaker 3 (11:52):
I thought this was common knowledge, baby.

Speaker 1 (11:55):
So they got big ass airplane, a huge airplane, like
the kind bigger than the kind of you would go
on like southwest right, and it's full of gash and
so it flies up along you know whatever, whenever, thirty
thousand feet and then it's got like a boom on it.
It's basically a long gas tube tube basically, and the
other airplane flies up right behind it, and the tube

(12:16):
comes down and connects, and they connect the airplane and
it pumps it fills it up with gas, and then
they just keep going because.

Speaker 3 (12:22):
They don't have time.

Speaker 1 (12:23):
Yeah, the fighters do this. A lot of different airplanes
can be refeir air Force one I believe can be refueled.

Speaker 3 (12:27):
Now does it fly along with it the whole flash.

Speaker 1 (12:30):
Right yet same speed below it, just below it. And
then there's a person in the back of the of
the the refueler that like drives the boom and so
like the other pile will fly up kind of behind it,
and then they'll like adjust the tube. I thought everybody
in the world knew they had.

Speaker 2 (12:46):
No fills the refiller because if it's flying, so those
are stationed like all over the world.

Speaker 1 (12:52):
So like if I if I'm B two man and
I take off out of Missouri Whiteman, Missouri, and I
fly and like let's say, maybe I get up over
like I don't know, Greenland or something, and then maybe
the refueler guys are in Greenland. They'll then they are
fill of gas and then they fly up there and
then you and then they go back home. Right then
they'll go back to their base and they know those
guys will keep going and then maybe they get over

(13:12):
like I don't know, I'm making this up France or
England or somewhere where we have refuelers, and then those
guys take off and meet them.

Speaker 3 (13:20):
There are refuelers that we put there fill them up.

Speaker 1 (13:23):
All over the world. And so yeah, so these dudes,
they flew over there, they did what they got to do.
They turn around, come home Land the next day, never Land,
never landed.

Speaker 3 (13:32):
Wow.

Speaker 1 (13:33):
Yeah, and he didn't know that, didn't know you tip,
this is crist You gonna drive your range Rover down
the highway while you're watching TikTok and someone gonna come
and refuel you.

Speaker 3 (13:47):
I would be nice.

Speaker 5 (13:48):
It would crazy if they can do this in the air,
like what.

Speaker 1 (13:52):
About land, right, Yeah, they can stamp in the air
forever like not for it. Well, in theory, they can
step into the air till they un out of food. Yeah,
food would be the only thing that they would need. Yeah, theoretically,
so I thought that was kind of cool. Though. They
take off and then they see you tomorrow and they
go do a bunch of stuff and the like their
wives are at home like you know, honey, I gotta

(14:12):
go to work. I'll see tomorrow. And then they're at
home watching CNN like, oh, I guess he was there,
and then they turn around to come back. Yeah, it's cool,
it is anyway. Also, this is in my list of
stories today, but it has nothing to do with anything
except at sports and kind of crazy. Do you name?
Gideon Lampron is his name. He's a Bowling Green college

(14:32):
linebacker and he's getting attention for his stats, but also
because of his middle name, Espn. His name is actually
on his birth certificate, Gideon Espn Lampron in capitol letters.
His dad, who's a huge sports fan, snuck the name
Espn onto the certificate while mom was asleep after birth.

(14:56):
So this is kind of like what the nurses did
to your mom.

Speaker 3 (14:58):
I was gonna say, that's like history repeating itself, because.

Speaker 1 (15:01):
The nurses named you because they believed that your mom,
who was new to this country, yes, maybe didn't understand
the English language.

Speaker 3 (15:08):
Well enough, right, but you know my name?

Speaker 1 (15:10):
You know.

Speaker 3 (15:10):
The craziest part is like she said what.

Speaker 1 (15:12):
She said, right, but then they said no because that
might be confused with the common street name in this area,
which is.

Speaker 3 (15:17):
Spelled the exact same way, just pronounced different.

Speaker 1 (15:19):
But that's okay. You're allowed to have whatever name you want,
and you're allowed to tell people how to pronounce it too.

Speaker 3 (15:24):
Yeah. And my name, right, my name is very much
a name of her native land.

Speaker 1 (15:27):
Yeah right right, native land? H Yeah. So anyway, this
guy's the middle name is ESPN and Mom had no
knowledge of this because she was asleep after you know,
extracting a human from her body. And he thought that
would be cute to sneak that in.

Speaker 5 (15:39):
Oh that I would thought he's grown to be like
successful now sports.

Speaker 1 (15:44):
Yeah, so it kind of worked out, I guess. Tesla's
highly anticipated robo taxi services launched at Austin as of Sunday.
They're ten to twenty driverless model wise available during what
amounts to a test runn Elon must says the service
will ultimately be expanded. For now, rides will call a
flat four twenty he's so cute with them, and a
safety monitor will be seated in the front passenger seat

(16:06):
of each robots. Actually, so that's a good way to
start it out. You know, let's have a guy. So
it's not technically autonomous, like the thing will pull up
in front of your house or whatever, and there'll be
a man there and now this or woman. This person's
not doing anything, but they're just there to make sure
that this thing doesn't go way more on you and
go round in circles and you can't get out or
start running people over making illegal turns. But this is

(16:28):
the future of rides. Here, Tesla will remotely monitor the
cars what to be available to pick up passengers in
a limited geo fenced area. Per ap only two passengers,
both of whom must be over eighteen, will be allowed
on each ride. The rolloute seems to be invite only,
and it's not clear when it will be open to
the public. But this is where we're headed. Guys, is

(16:49):
driverless ubers. I think we knew that, but are we ready?
Would you get in a car that pulls up in
front of your house with no driver? I think I
would at this point really well, because we got people
like you that are watching TikTok while they're driving, So
I mean, maybe I'm safer.

Speaker 5 (17:03):
This isn't about me, Okay, it's about your safety. And
if you want to get out the car, the door
locks and it's going and start goes in.

Speaker 3 (17:09):
What are you gonna do?

Speaker 1 (17:11):
Someone did? Someone just texted? He sounds truly baffled that
it's not common knowledge that airplanes can refull the I
did not know that people didn't know that air military
aircraft can refuel in the air. I thought I was
like everybody knew that.

Speaker 3 (17:25):
Planes. Maybe I don't know.

Speaker 1 (17:27):
I guess. I truly thought that was common knowledge. No
nuclear codes. That's what's my cross body perse.

Speaker 3 (17:36):
I knew it. I'm carrying that.

Speaker 1 (17:38):
Cross body purse around for it in the moment they
might call. They did call me over the weekend and said,
what are the codes? I was on a lake though,
and I didn't have my cross body purse on the lake.
I didn't wear itt shirtless, and so they were like,
what are the coaches? I'm like, I can't tell you.
I don't know. It was a crisis. It was awful.
It was so terrible. So here's one that's going to

(18:00):
throw you off today to start your Monday. As you
shift through all the unwonted spam emails in your inbox,
you might be tempted to do what if you're getting
a bunch of emails that you don't want, What are
you tempted to do? What would be the most obvious
thing to do if you want to stop the emails?

Speaker 3 (18:15):
Delete them?

Speaker 1 (18:16):
Or which or there's one further step which is the
most obvious, which seems to be the last step that
I take unsubscribe. Yes, right, so I delete them, then
I get annoyed they come back, and then I'm like, oh,
I guess I could just unsubscribe, but then I don't. Well,
it turns out that might be the worst thing you
can do, with cybersecurity experts now warning that responding to

(18:36):
such a message or link may actually invite more correspondents
that leads to future threats. This is from the Wall
Street Journal. One in six hundred and forty four clicks
on unsubscribe links ends up directing the email recipient to
possibly malicious websites. Selecting unsubscribed could also let whoever is
on the other end know that you're a real person

(18:56):
who interacts with spam, and that can make you a
bigger target. So I can't even hit the unsubscribed button
anymore without opening myself up to something. But that's why
a lot of those weird texts that you'll get like hey,
how you ben, or like hey is this still your number?
Or like you ever get those that are like random,
And then I guess that's all that is is to
see if there's a real person on the other end

(19:18):
who like me A million times before I finally figured
it out, is like uh, oh, who for my past
is coming back? And then it bothers me all day yeah,
like who's asking? And I like try and reverse search
the number only to find out that it's BS. But
that's all that's about is they want you to respond,
so they're like, okay, there's a real person and then
they sell your number.

Speaker 3 (19:35):
Oh yeah, the minute that I got to text us out,
how you ben? I knew it wasn't like it wasn't
gonna happen.

Speaker 1 (19:40):
How you bet? Right?

Speaker 3 (19:40):
Like, no one cares how I bet?

Speaker 1 (19:41):
No one just reaches No one cares, No one reaches out.
This is how you bet?

Speaker 3 (19:44):
Oh no, you don't care how I But later you'll
get one.

Speaker 1 (19:47):
From me and I'll mean it's how you've been. So
instead you're supposed to click on the list unsubscribe header,
hyperlink buttons that email services in BED and email subject
lines or headers. Okay, that sounds a little advanced. Instead
of interacting, mark a messages spam once it comes in
and be done with it, and then set up filters
to screen out particularly persistent emailers so that those messages

(20:09):
go right to spam, Or set up an alternate email
account that you can use to sign up for deals, coupons, contests,
or whatever so that your regular email doesn't get bombard
in and I got a couple more for you here.
Gen Z has unbelievable job requirements, according to a new
survey from resume dot io. Fromparents dot com, no, they

(20:29):
find that Generation Z has unique expectations for work environments.

Speaker 2 (20:33):
Unique.

Speaker 1 (20:34):
So gen Z, this is what a pair according to
a survey. And sometimes I think that gen Z is
being done dirty because this is because how many people
were asked about this? And who were they? You know
what I mean? Sometimes I think this is getting a
little REDI I don't know this. I mean, Bella has
never asked me for a nap room. Okay, she also doesn't.
I'm not allowed to look her in the eye either,

(20:55):
so I don't know, if you know, maybe she wants them,
but a nap room. Sixteen percent of gen Z workers
under twenty eight considered nap rooms essential in the workplace.

Speaker 3 (21:05):
Hey love fun rooms.

Speaker 1 (21:07):
Around twenty percent expect offices to have recreational areas with
ping pong pet friendly policies. Twenty percent require workplaces to
be pet friendly.

Speaker 3 (21:15):
I agree, it's cute.

Speaker 1 (21:16):
That'd be fine, yeah, except it's always going to be
the one or two people whose dog craps everywhere or
can't behave is going to ruin it for everybody, But
I'd be fine with dogs all over this place. Food
perks thirty three percent anticipate free snacks and lunches. Flexible work.
We used to have those and then people got fired.
Flexible work hours. One in three demand a four day

(21:38):
work week, okay, and then expanding time off. Twenty five
percent expects sabbaticals for personal growth or travel sabbatical.

Speaker 3 (21:47):
Now that I can rock with.

Speaker 1 (21:49):
Yeah, my sabbatical would be got sabbatical and then when
you come back, your key card didn't work anymore because
we found someone else exactly to yeap it up all morning. Yeah.
I saw those places that have like gyms in there
and restaurants and you know whatever. They free coffee, dinner, breakfast,
if they if your office serves free breakfast, lunch, and dinner,

(22:10):
they that's them saying if you want to work breakfast
to dinner, that's okay. Like people will get tricked by this.
If you're eating dinner at work and you also eat
breakfast at work, that means you've been there for more
than eight hours, right, So like that's all good and stuff,
and that would be cool to have that for free,
and I guess you could take it on your way
into your way out or whatever. But I mean, at
the same time, these places that are like, oh yeah,

(22:31):
they got bads in here, well, that sounds an awful lot,
like I don't know, a prison or daycare.

Speaker 5 (22:37):
Like you want a rec room, you want a sandbox,
you want a nap room.

Speaker 3 (22:42):
It sounds like a daycare.

Speaker 1 (22:43):
Like give me a desk and like air conditioning and
make me only work four days a week. Hell, and
I'm fine. I don't need a basketball court or ping
pong table. I don't need an omelet ball on any
of that. Four days a week and not four days
a week, ten hours a day, four days a week,
eight hours. Thirty two hour work week is what I'm saying.
Thirty two hour. I believe that everybody could get just

(23:05):
as much or more done in thirty two as they
do in forty hours. Yeah, I firmly believe that because
we'd have to cut back on all the meetings that
don't need to be, and all the emails that don't
need to be, and all the zoom meetings that don't
need to be because we only got thirty two hours.
We only got so many days. So we got to
get too, we gotta be more efficient.

Speaker 3 (23:21):
Let's do it.

Speaker 1 (23:22):
I think that's been proven actually, but yeah, this is
all stuff that jen Z apparently expects in their office.
And if you're going to these three states, then I
guess you can expect at some point to spend more
on only fans than everybody else. Because a study done
by the search engine only finders the United States of
lonely fans, which found states spend the most annually and

(23:43):
only fans subscriptions, West Virginia number one, Nevada, Colorado, Illinois,
and Iowa the highest spenders, and only fans. Mississippi spent
the least per ten thousand residents, with fifty four grand
per ten thousand residents. The rest of the bottom where Luis, Arkansas, Alabama,
and Alaska. It's National Kissing Day, National HVAC Tech Day,

(24:06):
and we need you right now. That's for sure. One
hundred and ninety eight thousand degrees. I'd say a lot
of places. It's National onion ring Day and National Chocolate
Eclaire Day, not to be confused to any other form
of a Clay Caitlin's Entertainment Report. He's on the freas show.

Speaker 2 (24:20):
Fionce and jay Z haven't been on stage together in
like six years, but that all changed yesterday when she
wrapped up a long weekend in Paris with her husband
by her side. They did Crazy in Love of Course,
along with Drunken Love and Partition, and.

Speaker 3 (24:33):
The crowd went absolutely nuts.

Speaker 2 (24:34):
When jay did his own Gentleman in Paris, I should
say sans Kanye, of course, he was nowhere to be found.
The last time the Carters performed in a concert together
was at the Global Citizen Festival in South Africa on
December second, twenty eighteen. I saw Cardi was having a
good old time in a box with Mama Tina and
Kelly Rowland. They were having a blast. It looks really fun.

(24:56):
I wanted to be in there with them. Jay Z
surprise cub after Beyonce brought out Miley for Paris Night
one to do their duet together, and I'm just over
here waiting for Miss Dolly Parton. I don't know where
she's coming out. I hope she will. She didn't say
no when she was asked, so we need it. We
need matching little outfits that would be like an iconic
moment and bring things full circle. Because I know she

(25:19):
reached out to her when she was making her album,
her country album, So I would love to see that
now over in where was this? This was in hold
On I'm trying to find out in Texas on as
I'm the Problem tour. Morgan Wallen likes to do these
like sports style walk ons. I'm sure you've seen them,
like he did last summer with Kansas City Chiefs with

(25:41):
a show he brought out Travis Kelsey and Patrick Mahomes.

Speaker 3 (25:44):
They escort him out, you know, like you're walking through
the tunnel.

Speaker 5 (25:47):
Boxer walks out yeah times yea, yeah, like walks.

Speaker 1 (25:49):
Out of his dressing room and they follow them all
the way.

Speaker 3 (25:51):
You know with the camera.

Speaker 2 (25:52):
Yeah, thank you, because I was having a hard time
explaining it because it's Monday and I don't.

Speaker 3 (25:56):
Have any words.

Speaker 2 (25:56):
Anyways, cut to now and during his second show in
Houston at NRG Stadium, Morgan Wallen got escorted on stage
by one time Astro's pitcher Roger Clemens and Drake.

Speaker 3 (26:06):
Yeah, Drake, Drake was there. I wasn't drink. Didn't he
move to Houston recently? Always in Houston.

Speaker 5 (26:13):
I feel like that's his second home outside of Toronto.

Speaker 3 (26:16):
Yeah, I feel like it is.

Speaker 1 (26:17):
It seemed random to me when I saw that. I
didn't realize Drake was a Houston guy.

Speaker 2 (26:20):
Yeah, he is a big use me about a home
there recently and like announced that he was going there
in very much Drake fashion. And I guess Drake and
Morgan have at least been friends since twenty twenty three
when he was in Morgan's You Broke My Heart video.
I forgot about that, by the way. During his first
night in Houston, which kicked off the entire tour, Morgan
brought out Texans wide receiver Andre Johnson and business mogul

(26:43):
Jim Mattress.

Speaker 1 (26:44):
Mack oh, I saw that too, Yeah, did you see that?

Speaker 2 (26:47):
So I'm sure do that in every city he does.
He's not doing Chicago, but he's doing like surrounding areas.
I think Madison and Ohio he's going to. And lastly,
this is the story I teas.

Speaker 3 (26:58):
Hamilton.

Speaker 2 (26:59):
Actor Anthony Ramo says that Madonna was the most terrifying
celebrities spot in a crowd when he performed during Hamilton
also said, though, that she had her iPad in her
face during the entire performance, so that's not only showing
her age, but like how much of a diva she is?
Like why is Madonna at this show with her like
brightness on her iPad the entire time, which is distracting

(27:21):
for the antics.

Speaker 1 (27:21):
Like it's each letter like two inches tall, like my
mom's eye pad. Sure, like only the first sentence of
my email can show up on her iPad at a time.
I'm sure, my mom, we can turn the font down
a little bit, like a little bit.

Speaker 2 (27:33):
I have really big font too, do you, Yeah, because
somebody told me that, like we get wrinkles like crows
feet from squinting, and so I made my text really
big so that I could not have wrinkles.

Speaker 3 (27:42):
But I don't know, my.

Speaker 1 (27:43):
God, if all the things I've done in my body
as it is what it is, I'm gonna have crows
what they call.

Speaker 3 (27:47):
Crow's feet, I'm going to have them.

Speaker 2 (27:49):
Luckily, men look more handsome than where they age.

Speaker 3 (27:52):
I'm trying to.

Speaker 1 (27:52):
Stay young in her I appreciate it, so thank you
for saying that.

Speaker 3 (27:55):
No, I'm very ji.

Speaker 2 (27:56):
I love that for you guys, gray hair, wrinkles, it's
all hot for I love it. By the way, if

Speaker 3 (28:49):
Yeah, No, big information coming, big.

Speaker 1 (28:51):
Information coming big Well, no, because I don't know what
it is. But remember last week we talked to the
lady who went on the frecom trip with her three
internet female Internet friends, and Wednesday morning we get the report.
I've been thinking about this one all weekend, like, what
did she get herself into? Is she still alive and.

Speaker 3 (29:07):
I want to hear about your weekend.

Speaker 1 (29:09):
Oh yeah, yeah I had. I had the Guy's trip
with the guys group, but a bunch of people I'd
never met.

Speaker 4 (29:13):
And maybe we'll do that next talk better than the
excited tell me. These are the radio blogs. On the
Fred Show Wednesday, we had the lady booked. I mean,
if she still comes around, who knows. Maybe she got
into some freaky stuff she won't tell us. I don't know,
but she called. Last week.

Speaker 1 (29:27):
We were talking about people who have friends that they've
never actually met. Whether it's like I don't know somebody
who works in an office that you work with way
across the country, or somebody that you met online you'd
never met in person, or whatever. Because there were some
people on Reddit who had met after twenty four years
of knowing each other after playing video games together twenty
four years ago, and they finally met. So people were

(29:50):
calling in. An insane amount of people were calling in
talking about, oh, I didn't know this person until I,
you know, years later in the YadA YadA, YadA, and
then this lady calls in and goes, yeah, I was
playing video If I got this right, I was playing
video games. With some people, these other women, and we'd
chat a lot and all this stuff, and we're gonna
meet up. It was this past weekend, and we're gonna

(30:10):
stay at one of their homes. And I was just
kidding around and I'm like to Mary, I think she
was a married woman too, Yeah she is, Hey, like,
look kind of what kind of freaky stuff you guys
gonna get into? And it was and it was like silence, Well,
I don't know. You don't know. That means that there's
been some freaky stuff discussed, because if I, for example,
I'm about to tell you about my weekend, I went

(30:32):
on a guys trip. I knew before I went in
there was no freaky stuff. Like, if you'd ask me
on Friday, Hey, is there some freaky stuff, my answer
wouldn't have been I don't know.

Speaker 3 (30:40):
How did you know that?

Speaker 1 (30:41):
It was?

Speaker 2 (30:41):
No?

Speaker 1 (30:41):
Though, because I know you don't know those guys, but
I they might have wanted and they didn't, but they might.
I am not engaging in freaky stuff. So if you'd
ask me Friday about freaky stuff, I would have said,
they're for certain when I talked to you on Monday,
no freaky stuff. Okay, this woman though, It's like, I
don't know, she was open exactly right. So I hope

(31:04):
everything's okay, and we'll talk to her on Wednesday, and
I'm very excited to hear. I thought about her all
weekend when I wasn't thinking about myself. Dear blog, So
do you remember I told the story a few a
couple of months ago. I guess it was. I have
a friend in Southern Illinois. He's worked with the show before.
Dennis is his name. Oh yeah, he was the guy

(31:24):
in charge of When we were talking about how you
could fly down to southern Illinois and hang out and
carbon Dala and Marion, you know, and have this. It's
just when you land, when you go to the Lake
of Egypt, it's it's as if you're in like Europe
or something, which is why it's Marion and Cordabundali because
it just it's far fancier than it gets credit for.
I mean, let me tell you for my money, the

(31:46):
Texas Roadhouse in Carbondala, it may as well be a
five star cuisine. I don't know why people wait for Carbone,
you know, people wait for these restaurants, they wait for,
you know, try and get into all these Michelin stars.
No Texas Roadhouse, Incardablendale is like nothing you'll ever taste anyway.
So you remember this guy? So I hung out with
him a few weeks ago and we went to a

(32:08):
random person's retirement party. Do you remember this? Oh yeah,
And I didn't know. I didn't know this person. And
my understanding was it was like a little drinks mixer
at a bar or something. We were going to walk
in and hey, how you doing and congratulations? No, no, no.
We walk in and it was the dean of a
law school. He was retiring. It was all of his
esteemed his parents were there. This is a very intimate thing,

(32:29):
and here comes to me at this thing. The only
thing I regret about that is that I didn't do
what your friend did, Kaylin and give a speech. I
regret because there were speeches when we walked in. People
that like, have known this guy for fifty years are
giving speeches, And I regret. If I had been on
my ches, maybe a beer or two in already, I

(32:50):
would have gone up there and just given a speech
about a man I'd never met before. Because people were
talking about this guy and he seems like an amazing
human being.

Speaker 3 (32:57):
Yeah, he wanted to be his friend.

Speaker 1 (32:58):
I wanted to be His name was Peter Ally. I
wanted to be his friend. He's a lawyer, said I
was going to assume me, I said his name, But
he send me all these students, you know, all these
people he's helped. He's very smart, he's written books. And
I'm like, this is a guy that I want to know.
So we leave the thing and I said to my
friend Dennis, I go, that's a guy that I want
to know. And he goes, well, there's a guy's trip
that's been going on for about ten years now. We

(33:19):
go to this dude's lake house in Alabama. He goes,
other guys go, we've all been pretty tight. I don't
really know if there's an invite for you on this
Like it's it's a pretty tight group. And yeah, yeah,
it's a very exclusive group. And I would have felt
and at the time, I'm like, I would feel weird
being I mean, talk about a guy who's not all
that social. You want me to go to somebody's house

(33:40):
in a different state, stay in said house. I can't
even go to a hotel and escape. And I got
to be social with a bunch of people I don't know,
not even then I got to make an impression because
now I'm the odd man out right right lo and behold,
I get an invitation. I got it. I got the call.
I got the call, No, the phone, I got the call.
You know, the scroll came in the mail. You know

(34:01):
what writing they do, know, they wait their whole lives.
And I got it. I got it right exactly. And
I started singing that song too, and Kelly Clarkson I
called her, I said, sing it to me. I'm oh,
man like this. And so I went. I went to
this thing. It was in Alabama, and it was Friday
through Sunday, and it was I believe seven or eight
other men and me, and they all knew each other

(34:22):
very well. Everybody was very nice to me. They were
very nice to me. They laughed at my jokes, wow,
which was very nice. You know. My whole object my
whole objective the entire weekend was just not to make
my friend Dennis look bad, because I tried to think, like,
in my friend group, if if we're going on a
trip and we've been going on the same trip for
like a decade, and then somebody calls me and goes Hey,

(34:45):
I'm going to bring Steve this year. None of you
know him, but like, I'll vouch for him. He's okay.
I might be like, now, hold on a minute, who
is this Steve individual? And why is he crashing our
social event and drinking our beer? Like, now, wait a minute,
the brief on Steve. But apparently I said enough nice
things about their friend Peter that I was in and

(35:06):
they were all so nice to me. They were so
nice to me. I was sociown. I didn't escape. I
was there with them the whole day.

Speaker 3 (35:13):
What did y'all do?

Speaker 1 (35:14):
Right?

Speaker 2 (35:14):
Like?

Speaker 3 (35:14):
What were the activities?

Speaker 1 (35:16):
And I have to say, this is this demographic slightly
older than I am. You know, I'm in my we'll
call it early to mid forties, and they're in there,
I would say mid to late fifties. So these are
men who are like profess successful professionals. They have kids,
your ages, you know what I mean? Like, these are
these are guys that are a little beyond me in life.
But it was very interesting because you know, I can

(35:36):
learn from people like this. But what did we do?
We It's wild? It was wild? What wild? We got
up early? These guys get up early.

Speaker 3 (35:44):
I can't say, like.

Speaker 1 (35:45):
Seven thirty, they've already they're already up, They've already like
gone for a run or something. I'm like, wait a minute,
I'm in bed. Seven point thirty. You guys already ran
around the block and ate you know what? I no,
there age no, So anyway, we did that. We there
was a boat involved. There was a dock in like

(36:06):
a lake.

Speaker 3 (36:07):
Did you swim?

Speaker 1 (36:08):
I got in the lake. I was in the lake.
I was. I was so outside my comfort zone. And
I don't think anybody knew. I don't think anybody knew.
This was social with strangers. They were all very nice.
I liked them all. I think I got invited back nice.
There was there was a vote halfway through, right in
front of me too. Only one guy said no. Only

(36:32):
one guy said he can't come back. So that guy
was out numbered, and I think he was kidding, but
I'm not sure.

Speaker 3 (36:36):
Okay, so you know, if you made a good part,
but I.

Speaker 1 (36:38):
Think I get to come back. No one's rescinded the
invitation just yet.

Speaker 3 (36:42):
You swim, you swim and a lake?

Speaker 1 (36:44):
I did?

Speaker 3 (36:44):
No?

Speaker 1 (36:44):
I did it?

Speaker 3 (36:45):
Was you didn't say, like, are you guys peeing in here?

Speaker 2 (36:47):
No?

Speaker 1 (36:48):
They just announced they were doing everyone knows, but I
just stayed upstream. Yeah, so I I guess I peed
on all of them, but I guess it was kind
of a freaking weekend after him waiting. Mitaphone is next
here more Fredshell next right here.
