That was a real laugh and also sound.

Speaker 3 (02:27):
Like your mom joke, Like, so I could add your
mom to.

Speaker 1 (02:29):
The list on the list people would like to see it.
She'd be a better interviewer than I am, and people
like her more than me. So I mean, honestly, we'll
check out the lineup. We'll see, we'll see who comes
next year, and uh maybe maybe we'll work that out.

Speaker 2 (02:46):
Okay, Plus Nellie, that interview, I mean I would have
loved that.

Speaker 1 (02:50):
Honestly, my mom interviewing everybody from jingle Ball would have
been I think people would have watched that, and she
would have she would have told stories if things had
never happened. And I mean, everyone loves this woman. I
don't believe a lot of what comes out of her
mouth anymore, but people love this one. I mean, I
love this woman. But it's like God, and to find
a lot of stories are about me, and I'm like,
well that never happened, but boy, other people are entertained.

(03:13):
So that's good. And as a guy who makes my
money telling stories. You know, you can't let the truth
get in the way of a good story. You certainly can. Nope, Guys,
what would you do in this situation? And I really
want to know. I like because I know what everyone's
gonna say, because everyone knows what the right thing to
do with I forbid. And I will say, for the

(03:33):
most part, folks on this show are not They do
not hold back about what they would actually do, even
if it's an unpopular opinion. And yes, I got this
from Reddit for I haven't heard from Fred Hayter Lauren
yet this year. On the text line, she claims that
we get everything from Reddit. We get ninety percent of
what we do from Reddit. Okay, but I got to

(03:54):
go through at least two or three pages on Reddit
to come up with enough. Consider it five minutes out
of your day that you didn't have to spend looking
for the best content. All right, But here's this woman product. Yeah,
I don't know said whatever she's on TikTok. I was
trying to give her credit. But you can find this
if you after you hear the content, you can type

(04:17):
it in Google and find her or in Reddit for
that matter. But it's morality Monday on a Tuesday, because
we didn't do morality Monday on a Monday. We never do.
But listen to this, this scenario here, I have to
unmute it. I got to learn how to use Reddit.
Apparently my first day. You know, I get all the
content for our show from Reddit. It's my first day.
You're afusing it.

Speaker 5 (04:36):
I ever wondered why people say Miami test friendships and
Vegas test relationships. Let me tell you about my New
Year's Eve. Last night, four of us get ready to
go out. I already DM a promoter for vendom, so
that way. He said, we can get in. You know
there'll be alcohol. No, you know, wait at the door.
Everything's all good.

Speaker 1 (04:54):
I guess you can DM promoters. I see him on
another place. I get a lot of content for us,
which is TikTok, but you can eat. These guys will
be like email me or you know, DM me. Yeah,
and you won't wait in line. You won't And this
is for guys and girls. Yeah, you won't wait in line,
you won't pay for drinks, you won't have form like
how they make it any money. And I understand what

(05:14):
they want. They want women to do that because the
more women in there. The the more guys they get in
there to spend all the money. But like, you want
me in there, you want six or five white guy,
you know, with some gray hair. You gonna let me
in for free and get the line you look. I
don't think you're looking for my demographic. I think you're
looking for me to go pay.

Speaker 3 (05:31):
Are you and your friends still in Vegas? Tonight's the
message I got. Well, me and my husband just left.

Speaker 6 (05:36):
We left.

Speaker 3 (05:37):
Girl, you're like five years.

Speaker 2 (05:38):
No one works harder than a Vegas promoter, like they
be in my comments in my ds, in my phone
on It's like, well.

Speaker 1 (05:45):
I'm sure they get paid, you know, a commission or
they get paid per per you know, especially I'm sure females,
women they get in. And that's what she was kind
of mumbling, was that she had emailed the promoter so
that she didn't have to wait in line with her
friends for New Year's Eve.

Speaker 5 (05:59):
In my here motor for vendom, So that way he said,
we can get in. You know, there will be alcohol, no,
you know, wait at the door.

Speaker 1 (06:04):
Everything's all good. We pull up.

Speaker 5 (06:06):
One of my friends is plus size, and they tell
her that she has to pay three hundred dollars at
the door. We all thought we were going to have
an expense free night, so no one wanted to pay
for the three hundred dollars entrycy. We spent over two
hours trying to figure out we're going to split it,
can she put on her credit cards, whether we're just
going to leave go to another club, like literally just

(06:27):
doing everything, and we spend over two hours plotting and
planning and strategizing. Finally, we're ten minutes before New Year's Eve,
and I personally did not want to spend my.

Speaker 3 (06:37):
New Year's Eve sitting on the curb.

Speaker 5 (06:39):
So I asked my friend, would you be willing for
us to pay for your uber to go back home
so you can watch the ball drop, watch fireworks go,
So that way we can at least go into the
club before midnight. She turned to me and says, I'll
get in that uber, but once I do, we are
not friends anymore here, all right.

Speaker 1 (07:01):
So they were going to the club on New Year's
Eve and they weren't going to have to pay for
anything because it worked us that except and I'm just paraphrasing,
we're just reiterating here what happened, and she she pulls
up with her friends and one of them is a
big girl, and apparently only skinny girls get in for free. Really,
is that this happened to me in Miami? Really? Yes,

(07:21):
this happened to me. All the girls getting for free
except for you.

Speaker 6 (07:24):
Yeah, they were like, you know, it's going to be
three hundred and something dollars to get in, And it
was a night that Cardi b Was performing, and it
was like my birthday weekend.

Speaker 1 (07:32):
Even though you're one of the prettiest women I've ever known,
thank you. And I'm not just saying that like much.
I'm not saying that to pander, like it's true like
me and regardless of if you had.

Speaker 3 (07:40):
To describe, how would you describe share?

Speaker 1 (07:44):
I mean, I don't know. I sometimes like a little
thicker myself, So you know what I'm saying, I just
I see some ugly skinny girls in the club, So
you know, I don't think it's fair to be saying that,
you know, big girls can't get in for free.

Speaker 3 (07:56):
Beautiful and beautiful man doesn't matter.

Speaker 1 (07:59):
Anyway anyway, Again, it sounds like I'm pandering. I'm not.
What I'm saying is like I've been in the club
and seen people who got in for free who are
not pretty but they're skinny, and it's like, well then okay,
it's the whole thing's dumb. So you happened.

Speaker 6 (08:11):
This happened to me in night life in general is
not friendly to plus size people. It's just not our
it's not our game. It's just not our field. They're
not nice to us. They don't welcome us. And I understand,
we take up a lot of space. We need a couch,
you know what I'm saying, Like, you know, like maybe
I don't know, but it's just nice.

Speaker 1 (08:31):
You're talking about.

Speaker 6 (08:33):
You know, they they they pander to the men with money,
so they want you to come in and they think
that they will allow ian what you like.

Speaker 1 (08:40):
But guys with money like all different. Yes they do,
James sizes, they do.

Speaker 6 (08:44):
But a lot of times men like plus size women
in the closet. You know what I'm saying, Like, they
like you at home, but they won't like you republic.

Speaker 1 (08:51):
So it's just a real.

Speaker 6 (08:52):
It's just a real. You just got to be real
about it. It's just not night life is just not
a plus sized person's game. So this does happen, but
you have to as a plus size person.

Speaker 1 (09:00):
That's why I don't. I'm not going out for that.
You know what I'm saying, Like, I'm me.

Speaker 6 (09:03):
You want to look like paying three hundred dollars to
come in there in your establishment, never and buy your
overly price drinks and sweat in your hot club, and
your music not even that good. Like it's just you know,
you just got to be real about it. But this
is very true. This does happen, and our friends were
completely wrong.

Speaker 2 (09:18):
I'm not gonna say like the two hour deliberation for me,
it's zero deliberation.

Speaker 3 (09:21):
We're dealing somewhere else.

Speaker 2 (09:23):
I think it's odd that she even wanted to go
to a place that made her feel that way. But
also as the friends, it's like, we don't even It's
doesn't phase us. We don't spend any time or any
money or anything at that place.

Speaker 1 (09:33):
We leave. We also want to know what everybody would do.
You can call intext the same number eight five five
five nine one three five and look, I say this, Yes,
I say this as a single man without kids in
expendable income, I do say this. But this is what
I'm gonna tell you. It's New Year's even Miami and
we're approaching eleven o'clock, eleven thirty whatever, We're not getting
in another club. We've negotiated this. If we're going to

(09:56):
a club, I'm telling you what I would do on
the spot. I would just pay the three hundred bucks
and we're going in and we figured out later, and
I would expect my buddies to help me make up
the difference privately, because that's screwed up. But like, if
we're going to if we decide to go to a club,
we're not getting into. This isn't seven o'clock. We can't
go negotiate something else. Like either we're going in here

(10:16):
and that sucks and we're gonna have a good time
now because we're in or what. But like this thing
where I send my friend home is not happening. I'm
just gonna pay for it. And I think the I
think the skinny people pay the skinny people tax on
that night. And you can say that place sucks and
and I'd never go back there or whatever. But like,
I'm certainly not sending my friend home, and I'm also

(10:36):
not standing in the street.

Speaker 2 (10:37):
You have to make sure your friend still wants to
go inside. If they heard that you know what I mean,
I'm going inside, like I wouldn't want to go inside,
and they were like never, So.

Speaker 1 (10:46):
The whole night now is ruined, which I think just exactly,
but it.

Speaker 7 (10:49):
Exacerbates we're going like I don't care serious as somebody
who's been in the clubs for years and is not
that period.

Speaker 1 (11:00):
It's so overrated honestly in my opinion, No, I agree,
but like, this is what we plan to do, right,
and I guess you know, everybody should have paid what
is the average person pay in Miami? If they are paying,
I mean I've heard like three four, five, six, seven
hundred dollars.

Speaker 3 (11:14):
A person, or a per person.

Speaker 1 (11:18):
Or just I think sometimes just to get in. And
so my thing is like, so it cost me three
hundred dollars to get my friend in who they don't
want in, but the rest of us are getting in
for free, and then guys are gonna buy a string
and in this case it's females and so okay, it's whatever,
like it it. This is dumb and principally I would
make me angry, but like it's not if we walk
away now first, I don't know what it took two

(11:39):
hours to debate this we're walking away eleven thirty, you know,
we kind of you know, like, now now the whole
night is ruined, and it's ruined because and now someone
feels like it's their fault that it's ruined because that
because of the shape of their body, you know what
I'm saying. So like now it's just the whole thing.
It just gets worse and worse and worse. So I

(11:59):
feel like in this particular case, I would say this sucks.
I'd pay the money, we'd go in and have a
great time, and then hopefully after a few drinks, no
one's thinking about it anymore. Because now walking away to
eleven fifty, this woman's mad that her friend's overweight. Now
she can't which is a screwed up thing to I'm serious, Like,

(12:19):
in the moment she's man, she can't get in the club,
This woman sucks. I agree, But take away the fact
that this is about someone's body body shape. You probably
have loved a friend and in a moment resented them
for something that was out of your control. You still
love them, but you're like, damn it, this this thing is,

(12:41):
this is taking our night. It's not personal, but our
night is now off. You know we're now off track,
and so you're not mad at them. You don't dislike them,
you don't have value them. But in that moment, you're like,
because of you, we're not getting in. In your head,
you're thinking this, so just pay the money, get in there,
you're gonna have nice time, and then we're never going
back to that place again. Instead, now they all walk
away dejected, and now everyone's mad because your New Year's

(13:04):
Eve is ruined, and the person feels bad because they
feel like it was their fault and because of something
that they didn't necessarily have control over in the moment.

Speaker 2 (13:13):
Yeah, well, like for example, like I had to leave.
I've been to Coachella a couple of times and someone
slipped me something one night and it made me very
sick and I had to be taken home and my
friends had to missed the whole night. And everybody was
cool with it except one friend later brought it up to.

Speaker 3 (13:26):
Me, like, you ruined my night one of Coachella, and
I was like, I look at her so differently because.

Speaker 1 (13:32):
Like, I'm not saying you vocalize the rem right, Like
we've all had the friend who gets you who drinks
too much, right, like hell, in this case, you had
no control over that, Like you were a victim, right,
which is awful.

Speaker 2 (13:44):
And I would say, you guys all good but like
you know, just getting a little sick and trash cans.

Speaker 1 (13:49):
But we probably all had the friend we go out,
you know, to party or whatever, and the person goes
zero to one hundred, you know, and and then and
then you some someone has to be responsible for them now,
and so you're like, I love you, but I'm resentful
that you did that. In this case, this is discrimination.
But I mean, let's face it, people were texting like crazy,
this is discrimination. You should see all was this is

(14:10):
the nightclubs. You do this all the time. They hold
lines for pretty people all the time, you know, and
they make they make the less attractive. And I'm using
the air quotes saying people wait in line. So this
is this is It happens all the time.

Speaker 2 (14:22):
Miami is way worse than Vegas's. I will say, Like Vegas, like, well,
you know, the promoters will still give you a package
or a deal. Miami is like a different breed and
it's not just size, Like even if they don't think
you're pretty enough.

Speaker 7 (14:33):
Of Miami, ten yea yeah, you're not, like they will
turn you away. It's right.

Speaker 2 (14:40):
Cover in Miami, I wanted to go to eleven and
Hillary and I had to pay cover.

Speaker 1 (14:43):
Like I guess we were.

Speaker 3 (14:44):
You know, we didn't have big yabos or something.

Speaker 7 (14:46):
What bothers me too, is that the promoter helped them
set this up, right, So like now I go to
him and be.

Speaker 3 (14:51):
Like like, bro, like what, like what what's the deal?

Speaker 7 (14:54):
Because like you told me, we can come like this
is crazy, this body discriminate whatever you want to call
this isn't well.

Speaker 1 (15:00):
And people are saying like I wouldn't give that place
a dollar, I wouldn't go under. But I understand what
you're saying, except where are we gonna like in this
particular example, we're just gonna stand there?

Speaker 6 (15:11):
Yeah, we're going home, We're going Benny to Airbnb. We're
gonna pop some fire works or something.

Speaker 1 (15:15):
We're gonna drink and pop a bottle. Yeah, I guess
I just go to the club. Anyway. I can't go
to the club and just stand with the people they
came with. So it's like you're not gonna find me
in line for this anyway, Like.

Speaker 3 (15:31):
This isn't happening and get a bottle.

Speaker 1 (15:32):
I don't know, but I think I would. I think
my Tennessee would be to just try and save it.
Just save it and be like this sucks and be
mad about it, but save it and then we move
on and we worry about it later. But just ride
at home like I spent three. You wouldn't. You can't
do that, like you either got to you gotta do
it for the better of the betterment of the group,

(15:54):
or you can't be mad about it.

Speaker 3 (15:56):
That only works if the friends okay with going inside.

Speaker 2 (15:58):
Still though, yeah, if they heard it, unless they didn't
hear it, then you just pay it and you're like.

Speaker 1 (16:03):
Hey, g new Year, Hey happy you you're good morning.
So morality Monday on a on a Tuesday. Basically, this
lady is saying if he wanted her, her big girlfriend
who couldn't get in the club because they said they
had that she had to pay, and the rest of
them didn't wanted her to take uber and go home,
what do you.

Speaker 3 (16:22):
Think she's not a friend, she's too superficial. She honestly
like that was so wrong.

Speaker 2 (16:30):
Either they could have just gone somewhere else or everyone
should have pitched them. I think it's ridiculous, am I,
But hopefully you know the good thing is that she's
just saving so much more time and effort now by
finding this out.

Speaker 1 (16:43):
Yeah, yeah, thank you.

Speaker 3 (16:45):
You leave your vacation. You know you're spending like dude, like,
don't be cheap if it's for us, that's what.

Speaker 1 (16:50):
I mean, Like we can then thank you, ge, you
have a great day. I'm glad you called them. That's
the thing. Like you you could say I don't want
to go to the club, and I wouldn't go to
the club. Okay, they flew to Miami and decided to
go to the club. That was the plan. So that
so we can debate whether you want to go or not.
But that's what they did. So what are we gonna
do now, We're gonna we're just gonna go home with
our hands in our pockets, like no, yes, I'm gonna

(17:10):
save the night. You can't just save a save a
person over here to.

Speaker 3 (17:14):
Me, I mean, you know, my friend was like, I
still want to go inside. I pay it all and
just never ask for the money back.

Speaker 1 (17:20):
You know. Now people want to know what wound up happening.
I'm not sure. I mean I would imagine, well.

Speaker 6 (17:26):
I wouldn't be their friends after two hours of deliberation
right in front of this place, talking about it for
two like, no, that's the thing. If you show up
three hours before, right, we've already come.

Speaker 1 (17:37):
Up with it as soon as you say to me.
If you said to me at nine o'clock on New
Year's Eve, she ain't getting in unless she pays three
hundred bucks, We're moving on. We're going to try and
find another plan. But if it's eleven thirty and it's like,
all right, well this is poor planning. Changed its more
upset about the legistations, you know, But you're right. The
promoter knew this when the promoter said you guys are

(18:00):
all in for free. So I'd probably hit up the
promoter and be like, hey, we're standing here, yeah, you
told me to come here.

Speaker 3 (18:05):
I'm your phone now right right.

Speaker 1 (18:08):
I watched the end of the video, and well, Homegirls
in the club. I believe it, and I didn't see
anybody kind of bigger next to her.

Speaker 4 (18:18):
Fred's show is on Friend's Biggest Stories of the day.

Speaker 6 (18:22):
That's right, That's what I hope she got it that
uber and left all of those friends forever.

Speaker 1 (18:27):
You are appreciated and not tolerated.

Speaker 6 (18:30):
Airport, slept on the airport.

Speaker 1 (18:35):
But honestly, if my friend said to me, bro, you're
too fat to get in, I would leave my stuff
at the airbnb or the hotel. I would go straight
to the airport, like I would right right to the airport.
I would change my name right whatever, my luggage and stuff,
I don't know, give it to good will or something

(18:56):
like you've never seen me again ever, No, like i'll
see you late. No, I'm I am going straight.

Speaker 3 (19:04):
Friends are people you choose. I don't know if we
remember that you choose.

Speaker 1 (19:08):
Please holes right, it does? It never happened to a
bunch of guys, because a bunch of guys would never
get a free admission into a club to begin with.
So we would just go somewhere else. But I don't know,
like what if there's the one person that isn't in
dress code or something you know.

Speaker 3 (19:22):
That happens, like shoes or whatever.

Speaker 7 (19:24):
I was the girl with the shoes outdoor sneakers, and
they were like, you can't wear that.

Speaker 3 (19:27):
I was so upset, and you know, we all did.

Speaker 7 (19:29):
We all went home collectively because I didn't have heels
in my car that night.

Speaker 1 (19:34):
Okay, well, let me ask you this. Let's say it's
not about your body image. Let's say it's something like
that where you you're not wearing the right clothing and
you're the one person's not wearing the right clothing, so
the whole the whole group has to redirect because you
didn't have the right shoes. No, I would take I
think we were about to say that. I would take
responsibility for myself and I would see myself out.

Speaker 7 (19:53):
Yeah, I take the blame for that and say, hey,
I'm sorry. I don want to room the nut you
guys go in. But I have good.

Speaker 3 (19:58):
Friends and they would be like, no, moving on. I would.
I would go with you.

Speaker 7 (20:03):
I mean, girl, I might be mad about it, Yeah,
for sure, you know, and have to do like some
breaths like I did that one day when we were
parking out of the way.

Speaker 3 (20:09):
For when to go to the hospital. Butt ye breads
and I would move on.

Speaker 1 (20:14):
You know what happened? She made you park like four miles.

Speaker 3 (20:16):
Away to were we going to Luriy. We were going
to Lurie. I think it was Kiki.

Speaker 7 (20:21):
And Cale children, and they shut me in the middle
like this always I'm sitting in the back like this
because the front.

Speaker 3 (20:28):
Absolutely, that is not why I.

Speaker 2 (20:32):
Should And Paulina parked, how far away did you park?

Speaker 3 (20:40):
Real far, real far real far, like a mile away?
And somehow Jason was just okay with it.

Speaker 7 (20:44):
But I know, so I bought a spot hero and
I was like, oh, it's really close to the hospital.

Speaker 1 (20:51):
No, it wasn't.

Speaker 3 (20:53):
For other plans.

Speaker 1 (20:55):
It was convenient for you, but you didn't tell the
group like you're going to have to there's going to
be a high there's gonna be a five k involved.

Speaker 4 (21:02):
To another location to then get another mode of transportation
to get from the parking to the destiny.

Speaker 1 (21:08):
That would have beensically, that would have been a nice
thing to share with the group before you offered the
ride going do.

Speaker 3 (21:14):
I see it right now? And I took cars there?

Speaker 1 (21:19):
Yeah, right, And I was just laughing and feeling I
was hot. Where was I car? I could barely beat us?

Speaker 2 (21:34):
Okay, yeah, you were just going, but you were You
probably had your wits about it.

Speaker 1 (21:39):
I just wouldn't have. Yeah, I would have big mad.
I would have been big mad, like excuse me what?

Speaker 3 (21:45):
But we worked through it and then it's a funny story.

Speaker 1 (21:48):
Yeah, laugh is it? It seems a little traumatic for
you headlines just wanting gas prices are heading even lower.
Industry tracker gas Buddy predicts at the national average price
for a gallon of regular gasoline will drop below three
dollars in twenty twenty six, the first time that that's
happened since twenty twenty. The forecast puts the average around

(22:09):
two ninety seven a gallon for the year, continuing a
trend of falling fuel costs that started in recent years.
Doctor visits for the flu have reached the highest level
in almost thirty years. It's hitting hard this season with
people going to the doctor for flu like symptoms. It's
reaching the highest level in a very long time. The
CDC says about one in ten outpatient visits nationwide were

(22:31):
for flu symptoms during the week ending December twenty seventh.
So far, at least five thousand people have died this
flu season, including nine children, and forty five states are
seeing high to very high flu activity. The latest data
doesn't yet reflect the impact of holiday traveling gatherings, which
which that scares me because you got everybody you know

(22:51):
leaving a club in Miami, going straight to the airport
and flying home and like We're only going to hear
about that here, you know, shortly all the people who
were traveling. Yeah, the Trump administration has announced that it
is removing the flu vaccine from the official childhood vaccination schedule.
Maybe not the best timing for them. A new stage
in the boom of weight loss drugs began yesterday with

(23:13):
the company that makes we Go the Now rolling out
a pill Virgin. So you know I'm listening.

Speaker 3 (23:20):
Yes, you know.

Speaker 1 (23:23):
How I feel about this. Okay, I if you need
it for your yes, except except when I read this yesterday,
I tempted, because I will say, one major preventative measure
for me, one major thing for me is stabbing myself, yeah,
at home, because you know, you used to have to
inject yourself with this stuff, and now there's a pill.

(23:45):
So there was that, right, And then there's the nausea,
and then there's the fact that you you know, the
weight just falls off into you know, it just evaporates.
I don't know where it goes, but I swear it's
going to wind up manifesting it into a tail at
some point like this. It's too easy. It's too easy,
and it bothers me because if you need it, for

(24:06):
your health, or you need it because it's going to
jump start a healthier lifestyle or whatever. I'm all for that,
or if you're diabetic or whatever else. But if you're
just too lazy to like exercise, I resent you.

Speaker 5 (24:20):
I do.

Speaker 1 (24:21):
And maybe I'm a bad guy, and I'll apologize for
this opinion right now, but as a guy who, like
you know, has to work now, because I have zero metabolism.
My whole twenties, I could eat like I could just
stuff burgers in my face and nothing happened. And now
if I think about a burger, it shows up in
my mid section, and I gotta go see Gideon the

(24:41):
Torturer twice a week, and I gotta do other stuff
to just sort of not be huge. And I need
it for my health too, for blood pressure and cholesterol
and whatever else. But then you can just take a
pill and everyone goes, oh, you're so skinny, you look
so great. I'm sorry. I resent that a little bit
if you don't have to do it, and you're doing
it in place of so so. Yeah, But now I'm

(25:02):
thinking about it, right, I'm.

Speaker 3 (25:04):
Thinking about the pill and the working out.

Speaker 1 (25:06):
I'm thinking about resenting myself because I can tell you
right now. And I'm not a physician of course anymore.
I'm not currently licensed. But if I took this and
did nothing else, I think I would probably be in
bad shape health wise. Like I think I would probably
have a heart attack or something because I would get skinny.
And then I'd be like, cool, I'm skinny, and so
that I just go eat like t bones.

Speaker 3 (25:25):
Right, And we should care about our insights as well.

Speaker 1 (25:27):
That's what I mean.

Speaker 3 (25:28):
It's important.

Speaker 1 (25:28):
And again I don't This is not from a medical perspective.
This is simply vanity and simply me being a hater.
If you need it, take it, if it helps you
get someplace, take it. It makes perfect sense if you like.
But I know too many people that are like, I
don't feel like doing anything. I'm just going to take
this pill and then bask in the glory of everyone
telling me how great I look. And then what really annoys.

Speaker 3 (25:50):
Me I want to bask in the glory are the.

Speaker 1 (25:52):
People who won't admit it. And I know several people
like this who they're doing it, but they want you
to believe that they're working on and dieting because they
and then they want and so when people will be like,
what are you doing, and they'll someone will even tell you, oh,
it's dying and working out. It's not. You're taking a
pill and that's fine, But just say that then and
be like, I'm taking away GOV. Look at this. It

(26:14):
looks great, but it's like you want you want people
to believe that you're working hard, but you're really taking
a shortcut.

Speaker 6 (26:21):
And that's how I feel about AI photo shoots. Yeah, yeah,
nobody exdly, but I just I'm sick of the AI
photo shoot. Well no, just tell me more like you
you don't look like that, like that, get your head
off that person's body.

Speaker 1 (26:35):
You know what I'm said, Let's knock it off.

Speaker 6 (26:36):
You're not in the middle of a forest with a
dog and a deer standing next to you.

Speaker 1 (26:41):
That's an AI photo shoots. So what we're talking about it.
I'm always hurting deer in my photo shoots. Sick of it.
All my professional photos have a bucket deer in the
background looking majestic. It's just getting crazy because I always
take all my head shots in the forest. Now, look,
I'm a hater and I'm sorry, and you can get
mad at me. It's fine, and I just it there's

(27:01):
a few people in particular that I'm thinking of, and
it's like, I know you're doing it, and it's fine
just say that, but oh no, oh my gosh, I'm
just sweating it out and working so hard. Back it off. No,
you're not anyway. One hundred and forty nine dollars a month.
That's the introductory dose.

Speaker 3 (27:21):
Yeah today, Okay, I know I want you so bad.

Speaker 1 (27:24):
Apparently, if your employer covers it, which I'm sure ours doesn't,
twenty five dollars a month the highest dose to be
available later this week to ninety nine a month. That's
not ballly okay, so here we go. I lost one
hundred pounds from stet bouncy there that this is what
I mean, Like, actually, it's really that is amazing, and
that I don't know what it's like to be. You know,

(27:45):
if if you are in a situation where you're you know,
you have so much weight to lose and it would
help your lifestyle and your health and longevity, that's an
amazing purpose for this. It's great. If you need to
lose thirty pounds and you don't feel like, you know, walking,
then you know what I mean. Then I think that

(28:07):
it's like cockcake. Come on a little bit, friend. If
I were the friend from the club, I would be
driving right to the pharmacy after that. So in that case,
I would be a total hypocrite, which I occasionally am.
And oh. New parents in Maryland turned to chat gpt
to name their New Year's baby, So I don't you

(28:29):
know this is happening all the time, but they used
AI to brainstorm baby names that would sound right with
their last name. After settling on Hudson, they asked chat
gpt to help choose the middle name, landing on Hudson
Oakley Winkler. He needed chat gpt for that. Hospital staff
shared the stories at Modern Twists on a longtime New

(28:49):
Year's tradition, showing how AI is now part of everyday life,
even in the delivery room. Would you let AI name
your kid? What good? I like that? Hudson Oakley? I
like that? How good is the name? Is a good name?
It's National Technology Day and National Cuddle Update, all the

(29:10):
health reasons why they're using the Goovia and it's LT.
I'm not talking to you guys. If you need it
for your health, then take it, but don't lie to me.
If you don't have a gym membership, and you're losing
weight like crazy, and I'm watching you eat a big mac.
Then you ain't doing it in the gym, and it's

(29:31):
also snowy, so you're not outside either. On the press
show him and I'm a hater, I'll admit it because
it's so hard for me to lose the weight. But
I'm thinking about it. I might look nice with a tail.

Speaker 3 (29:47):
You're doing the right thing. A combo is okay too.

Speaker 1 (29:51):
And honestly, the more that I work this process out verbally, Yeah,
if I died from a heart attack from your high
cholesterol or plaque in my heart or whatever, but I
looked skinny, still snatched, I mean nope, Yeah, it's okay.
So maybe I need to rethink the sulting.

Speaker 3 (30:12):
Yeah, you let us know.

Speaker 1 (30:13):
I will. I'm just working through it, okay myself, right now,
that's okay.

Speaker 3 (30:16):
All good.

Speaker 2 (30:16):
Bruno Mars is threatening us with new music, saying he
finished his album.

Speaker 1 (30:23):
That was another real last good.

Speaker 2 (30:25):
I'm good after nearly a decade since his last full
length release, the twenty sixteen twenty four K Magic. Of Course,
he took to social simply writing my album is done period,
it's a threat.

Speaker 3 (30:36):
I'm telling you, of course.

Speaker 1 (30:37):
He's still maybe sure, maybe we should circle back and
listen to it again. Just make sure.

Speaker 2 (30:43):
He's still made music over the years, with collaborations obviously,
like Keiky's favorite with Miss Lady Gaga. I know a
lot of people love how I Say that and his
group selk Sonic. Details like a title track list, I
don't know any of that. I don't have a date,
but just beware, get your affairs in order.

Speaker 1 (30:58):
It's coming.

Speaker 2 (30:59):
Tommy Lee's wife, Brittany Ferland, do you guys remember this
whole controversy with the dude Ronnie Radkey, the front man.
He's the singer for Falling in Reverse, a rock band,
and she's at the center.

Speaker 3 (31:12):
Of a new legal issue with him.

Speaker 2 (31:14):
He's actually filed a temporary restraining order against her, accusing
her of harassing him not only in line, but in
person after she revived that whole bizarre cat fishing controversy
from twenty fifteen.

Speaker 3 (31:26):
So I don't know if you guys.

Speaker 2 (31:27):
Remember, but essentially she is married to Tommy Lee and
was being naughty messaging this guy who she thought it
was the real hymn on Snapchat.

Speaker 3 (31:36):
He came out being like it wasn't me. Now, he's
saying that she kept messaging him on.

Speaker 2 (31:41):
Social when he ignored her, she showed up at his house,
followed him to a doctor's appointment, and waited outside staring
at him.

Speaker 3 (31:48):
He's asking a.

Speaker 2 (31:49):
Judge to force her to say at least one hundred
yards away from him to sell stems from that whole
online drama that went viral, and he denied any involvement
and said the FBI was looking into it, So I
guess he was telling the truth. But he is claiming
that she is very much still following him, even though
her and Tommy Lee seemingly got back together in Our Fine.

Speaker 3 (32:10):
And Lastly, Really Quick.

Speaker 2 (32:11):
The ticketing search engine seatpick dot com has shared the
top ten most annoying songs of twenty twenty five. I
guess they used criteria of repetition, high pitched tones, unchanged harmonies,
and meaningless filler words like yeah and oh obviously Sabrina
Carpenter's on there with sugar talking.

Speaker 3 (32:31):
It took the top spot.

Speaker 2 (32:32):
I think it scored a forty six percent likelihood that
someone would find this annoying, so they literally had put.

Speaker 3 (32:38):
Math into this.

Speaker 2 (32:39):
The second spot was also Sobrino with Tears coming at
forty six percent. Lady Ga Guys the Dead Dance came
in at three, Jim In with Who came in at four,
and David Ghetta and Sia came in at fifth.

Speaker 3 (32:56):
The rest of the top ten, let me see who else?

Speaker 1 (32:58):
If we know anyone on.

Speaker 2 (32:59):
Their tape Cray just keep watching dom Dalla Dea, Dreaming,
Ed Sheeran, Azizam and uh yeah. That rounded out the list.
But those songs annoying anyone? Anyone have another annoying song?
I mean was Espresso last year?

Speaker 6 (33:14):
Uh?

Speaker 1 (33:14):
No, those two years? Okay? There It's like the songs
that are catchy that here work. You have to admit
they're catching sometimes you kind of like them. They have
those characteristics too, So it's like I feel like, for me,
I like a song until a point there's a there's
like a play and I don't know where it happens
if it's like play number seven oh four or seven
o eight, but there's a point at which it goes

(33:35):
from like I can dig this too. Now I hate it,
and then I make fun of the song that I
used to like for those characteristics, but I did like it.

Speaker 2 (33:43):
We do have to hear a song and abnormal amount
of times in a row sometimes or just like all
the time.

Speaker 1 (33:52):
It turns out, but not a lot of variety in
the song because we only play the biggest hits in
the morning time.

Speaker 4 (34:00):
Everything you want to hear.

Speaker 1 (34:02):
Yeah, we want to make sure that every time you
hear a song, it's your favorite song.

Speaker 3 (34:06):
You like it, We're going to give it every time, which.

Speaker 1 (34:08):
Means we get to hear it four times a morning.

Speaker 3 (34:11):
You really do.

Speaker 2 (34:12):
Fred Show Radio on YouTube if you want to see
Jason's new sweatshirt that his mom got him for Christmas.

Speaker 3 (34:17):
It's so cute. He looks rich. I feel like, doesn't hear.

Speaker 1 (34:21):
What brand is that? I don't know? That is wonderful?
Look at you.

Speaker 4 (34:28):
Yeah, they talk better than they These are the radio
blogs on the Frend Show.

Speaker 1 (34:34):
I stare go. We'll debate the relationship drama in just
a second. Seven hundred and fifty bucks for show Bis.
Shelley in the showdown, waiting by the phone? Why did
somebody get ghosted? All coming up? Jason? The people must know. Okay,
they think you're walking around here with a new knee.
But guess what, in Jason fashion, just just to recap,
you were you were going to have knee surgery.

Speaker 4 (34:55):
Before Christmas, literally, like.

Speaker 1 (34:58):
Was rescheduled from seven weeks before. This was the second
time around for knee surgery. Yes, but yet didn't happen.

Speaker 4 (35:07):
Did not happen, So yeah, I talked a little bit
about this before the holiday. But I was supposed to
have my meniscus repaired on the Tuesday before Christmas, and
I planted out that time because it was the holiday
and I had time to be off my feet and whatever.
And then I get a call literally the friday before saying, oh,
we don't have physician clearance because you have to go

(35:28):
to your doctor and get cleared whatever to be put
under anesthesia. And I did do that already, but no
one told me that it has to be thirty days
before your surgery date.

Speaker 1 (35:39):
So mine had expired. And they told me the friday before.

Speaker 4 (35:43):
Of course, the friday before Christmas, no one's open, no
one wants to work, no one wants to do anything,
so I couldn't get anywhere, and now I had to
push it to February.

Speaker 1 (35:51):
So just to catch everybody up if you didn't and
correct me if I don't have all the details, right.
But if you're new to this show or the story,
Jason needs Nie or he's needed it for about seven years,
so he's hobbled around finally decided to do it, so
you you schedule it right. The doctor works in a
surgery center. But the doctor was insurance approved and the

(36:15):
surgery center was not, and we don't find We didn't
find that out for round one until a few days
before you were supposed to get it before.

Speaker 4 (36:22):
Yeah, so they were like eight thousand dollars please, and
I was like, that's not going to work, so let
me figure.

Speaker 1 (36:26):
Some same building, same building, right or up. The doctor's good, yeah,
the table that he operates on not good.

Speaker 6 (36:33):
Good.

Speaker 1 (36:34):
Insurance didn't like that, which which if you know anything
about insurance, then you know that this is par for
the course. Like okay. So then they were like, okay,
we'll find you a new doctor and a new surgery place.
So you were ready to go for round one and
then this was round two and that's where the clearance expired.
But how did no one like when you first checked

(36:55):
in with new doctor and new surgery table. How did
they not say like, okay, we're need to make sure
this clearance is like how did Why are we just
now looking at that?

Speaker 4 (37:03):
I think because they were so flabbergasted by how we
got to that point that they were like, okay, like
you know, we'll figure out, like this is we ran everything,
like this is your covered, like we're good to go,
and and God bless the scheduling girl because she was
calling around trying to figure out how to get me
in before the holiday and it just didn't work out.

(37:25):
So here we are now it's February. So February February seventeenth. Yes, Oh, yeah,
that's a texture right here. That's interesting. That's true. I
had forgotten too. Speaking of rescheduling, what happened to Fred's
special guest?

Speaker 1 (37:37):
Oh, it couldn't talk. Well, I forgot about that. So
for my birthday in November, you guys had scheduled and
a guest. You couldn't tell me who it was, And
they weren't cleared to talk until the seventeenth of December,
and then we wound up going on vacation. Yes, and
then we couldn't talk to them. Yeah, are we ever
talking to them? Honest?

Speaker 4 (37:57):
I don't know, I mean ghosted. We I think we
moveduff around a little too much. Yeah, we might have
scared them, but we're gonna try to try. We're gonna try.

Speaker 1 (38:06):
Can you tell me not yet? No? Can you give
me like the fine people at home who were curious.
Can we have like a like Friday. Can we have
a day where you well you will tell us if
we're who it was going to be.

Speaker 4 (38:18):
Yeah, I think it's fair if we don't. If we
don't get them by Friday, then we'll know who it was.

Speaker 2 (38:24):
Well, yeah, I'm hoping. I'm hoping they picked back up.

Speaker 1 (38:29):
Interesting and I was excited about it. He's so excited
that I forgot.

Speaker 2 (38:32):
But I just remember now, I know, I know what
you wanted to take that day.

Speaker 3 (38:36):
I was like, bummer, but we were not going to
just come in just for that. Yeah, okay, because they
will still be well.

Speaker 1 (38:42):
Thank you Texter six three oh for reminding Thank you. Yeah,
and for all the people who cared about Jason, poor Jason. Yeah,
