(01:12):
drama waiting on the phone, of course, and the Entertainment Report.
What are you working on?
Speaker 3 (01:18):
Someone will perform on SNL for the first time in
thirty eight years, and there's.
Speaker 4 (01:23):
Only a few people that could probably be if you
think about it, Jesus, Yes, Moses, he's there too. Hellob Yes,
it's what we've all been asking for. That's exaciples. Yeah, well,
you're right, it could only be a few people.
Speaker 3 (01:39):
Because thirty eight years in between when they would watch
you and they'd still want you.
Speaker 1 (01:43):
That's true.
Speaker 2 (01:44):
That's crazy.
Speaker 1 (01:44):
No, that is true. That is true. So there's a
billionaire who has a pickup line that he wants everybody
to know about. And I want to know if this
would work. What I really want to know is is
what what would work in twenty twenty five as a
for aims to I guess this could be online, but
you know, I suppose you could DM this to somebody,
(02:07):
but you know, maybe in person. But this guy's name
is Bill Ackman. He's a hedge fund guy. Now, I
don't know how we get all the money. Maybe it
was from hedge funds. But his pickup line that he
claims works is or did work. I'm not sure if
the guy's married. He's a older guy. May I meet you?
(02:28):
May may I meet you? Well?
Speaker 2 (02:31):
Thank you?
Speaker 1 (02:32):
So he got mocked online after sharing dating advice for
a young man on social media. He's always fifty nine,
you know, yeah, it's giving. I thought he was older actually,
but he's fifty nine. And he suggested using the pickup
line may I meet you before starting a conversation with women,
saying that you almost never got to know when he
was younger. So this was a post on X I
guess I's been viewed twenty six million times and prompted
(02:53):
thousands of comments and mocking memes. People called him out
of touch and joke that trying the line and getting
to we'll get the police called on them. One person
said that women only said yes to him because he's
a billionaire financier, but he replied that he didn't have
money back when he was using that line, may I
meet you? What is James mad about? James says, uh,
(03:16):
I'm sure to stop throwing shade at you. I mean apparently,
I don't know. Yeah, I'm not sure there was no shade. Yeah,
I know, I know, I'm just I'm confused. Anyway, I
was confused. Man again, what does stop?
Speaker 5 (03:31):
Right?
Speaker 2 (03:32):
You know she knows he.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
Throw some shade, I'll throw some shade. Not not our James.
This was a text. I know. This was not our boss, James.
Our boss James did not ask me. She actually like
he would like more shade and more drama if anything.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
James.
Speaker 6 (03:47):
Yeah, yeah, man, I meet you, may meet you absolutely, not.
Speaker 1 (03:51):
Only in the dark. I guess I think that.
Speaker 6 (03:52):
Sounds like one of those like African prince princess. You
know what I'm talking about, Like, Man, I meet you.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
Like said send you money, Like that's what it's going.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
Oh, he's talking about bellehemine. By the way, that the cavities.
She has five cavities.
Speaker 3 (04:04):
She told us that, well she had six, but she
gets to take two out with her wisdom teams.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
I thought all of them had cavity. I thought she'd
have all they all had cavit. I thought you had
ten total or something? Was it two of the wisdom
teeths worth it's four and four and two wisdom, So
there were eight wow or six anyway, man, meet you
meet you? No, No, you can I meet me. I
don't like that at all.
Speaker 7 (04:29):
Meet anyone and I literally the bars on the floor,
and that would still freak me out.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
I would feel like you're trying to, like, you know,
keep me in a trunk or something.
Speaker 1 (04:37):
If you said, if I got a thing a DM
that said may I meet you, I would think it
was like a scammer. That's because there's such an old
timey way to talk that I would think that it
was somebody who didn't maybe have a mastery of current
you know, sort of phraseology.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
Yeah, or lived in a different country. That's what I
would truly think.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
Yeah, because that's just not the way people talk, and
it's very polite and proper and whatever else.
Speaker 3 (04:58):
Someone asked if I was spoken for the other day
and my DMS, and I was like, wow, I haven't
heard that since the.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
Forties, Like it, are you spoken boken.
Speaker 8 (05:09):
Right?
Speaker 1 (05:09):
Right?
Speaker 2 (05:09):
Do you have a dowry?
Speaker 1 (05:11):
Yeah? Well do you? I'd like to know what your
dad's willing to pay you? Well, yeah, trade me out
to get you to get you off the payroll. May
I meet you m, yeah, but what here's the better
the better question though? Eight five, five, five, nine one
one three five you can call and text the same number.
What what would work? Like? What do you want to
(05:32):
hear from men approaching you? Is that because you have
a boyfriend? Because you just don't want people that you
don't want to talking to men to talk to you
at all? But like, here's the thing, real period. I
know you're kidding kind of, but you're not. You have
a boyfriend, so you're probably not kidding, But like, all
I should think.
Speaker 6 (05:51):
I wear a sweatsuit that says I have a boyfriend
in the top and bottom you know, no.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
And I guess this person couldn't read because I can
see it every single day. And I guess this person
didn't take the time to when you asked if you're
spoken for him? Like haven't you seen her outfit today?
And every day? But I you know, you hear a lot,
whether it's social media or whatever. You hear people say
that they women saying that they want men to approach
(06:16):
them in the wild. The problem is out of you
know you all. You also hear a lot of people
saying they don't want to be approached in the wild,
or they make fun of the guys who approach them
in the wild, and so you can't have it both ways.
Or you get on some app and you make fun
of guys, or you trash guys that that you know
did there. And I'm not talking about the guys who
said like disgusting things or very clever things like I'm
(06:38):
going to break every chair in the room so that
you don't have any place to sit, like one guy
said to you. Now, that is well, highly inappropriate. That
is that is that is creative.
Speaker 2 (06:46):
Sometimes I take a step back and I go, you know,
I'm not even mad.
Speaker 1 (06:48):
Like like I got it. I'm like, I'm like, I'm
not I'm not going to enter a room and where
are no chairs? But like I also, okay points you know,
every now and again, I think you could you could
say something like that to the person and they might think, like,
you know, if they have a little bit of an
off sense of humor like we do, they might they
might step back and be like, okay, but but nine
times out of ten that's not gonna work. Nine times
(07:10):
out of ten you're gonna wind up getting made fun of.
But so that's my thing is, do you want to
be approached, and if you do, what's actually going to work? Now?
Of course you want them to be respectful and not
you know, be gross and and whatever. But like, the
key to this is you want to be approached. If
I'm guessing, you want to be approached by the guys
that you want to be approached by. And and we
(07:31):
as men don't know whether we're the guy you want
to be approached by or not, so we don't approach
out of fear of all these other things. So I
guess if that's the case, if you want to be
approached by men or whatever, I think we have to
get to a place where we can kindly brush people
off as a standard in society. And then, by the way,
once you're kindly brushed off, you need to step off. Yeah,
(07:51):
you need to. You need to leave. You need to
you need to leave. She doesn't want to meet you,
bro and then and then you need to leave. You
need to not respond. If it's in a DM, you
don't need to have some smart comeback because you were rejected.
You don't have to project, you don't have to say
something I don't want you anyway, which is what everybody
there's so much of this stuff. That's my favorite that
(08:12):
people do. It's any want to go out with me? No,
well you know you think you're hot stuff. Dude, you
asked me a question, I gave you an answer. Now
you need to walk away now. So there's that. So
this isn't all on women. This is on men too,
because men have a tendency to act like idiots.
Speaker 3 (08:27):
I'm a fan of the like for both of both
parties involved, the like don't make it feel like you're
hitting on me situations, so like, come up, talk about
something different, make a joke, point something out at the bar,
then feel my energy. If I'm engaging, or if I'm like, oh,
my friend's waving across the bar, then we can both
leave the situation either not embarrassed, or you proceed hitting
on me, like I don't make me feel like you're
(08:48):
hitting on me. Don't be like, hello, ma'am, you know
I'd like to dance with you. You know, just let's let's
just talk talk about the bar. Is it crowded? You know?
Speaker 2 (08:56):
Do I have a dream? YadA YadA?
Speaker 3 (08:58):
Okay, And so no one gets it's embarrassed either way,
because then you could feel if I'm like I got
to go to the bathroom.
Speaker 1 (09:04):
That's true, that's true. Take a hint, like, you know,
is it conversation flowing organically or are you forcing it?
If you're forcing it to walk away.
Speaker 2 (09:11):
Yep, it's over, then you're not embarrassed, and neither of mine.
Speaker 1 (09:14):
Kiki, how you know? Well?
Speaker 2 (09:16):
What why are you rolling your eye?
Speaker 1 (09:19):
You're technically single but engaged because you're not married, But
when you were actually actually single? Yes, how did you
want to see what I'm talking about? That's why I
rolled my eyes. I don't even know the rules anymore,
But how did you want to be approached?
Speaker 2 (09:33):
So I want you to approach me?
Speaker 9 (09:35):
And then just if I call the police on you,
deesn't means I don't want you.
Speaker 2 (09:38):
And then if I don't, it's.
Speaker 1 (09:39):
A good sign. In my experience, that's been a good sign.
Speaker 2 (09:43):
If I don't call the police, we good, you know,
like keep talking that's the alternative or rash.
Speaker 9 (09:48):
Because I am one of those women who I would
hype me in up like you gotta approach women.
Speaker 2 (09:53):
Man, You gotta go out there in a while.
Speaker 9 (09:55):
You got to shoot your shot, man, and then the
moment you shoot your shot at me, if you're not
the man I want. I'm like, please get them.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
So this is kind of what I'm talking about, right
because like as a guy like guilty, I don't know.
I don't know, like I you know, it's like I
don't want to wind it. If I walk up to
the right girl at the right time, and I'm the
guys she wants to talk to, and then I talked
to her, then that's what she wanted and that goes well.
But if I'm not then then a lot of different
(10:24):
things could happen. And so yes, I guess I'm a
little insecure about it. But but then but then you say,
that's what you want. But are you you know, are
as a society are we receiving that as well as
we possibly could? You know what I mean?
Speaker 2 (10:39):
Like, it's hard, it's hard being a man, because.
Speaker 1 (10:42):
I don't think it's hard. I know, I don't think
it's hard in this one regard. This is tricky.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
Yeah, man, I wouldn't know what to do.
Speaker 1 (10:52):
This is tricky. It is not hard to be a
man at all. But this is a little tricky because
it's like different age demographics are looking for different things,
and sometimes you can be really forward and sometimes you can't,
and then sometimes you're not forward enough. You know, if
you're may I meet you, then that you're gonna get
made fun of. But if you're like, yeah, you know,
can I can I you know, get up a yeah
(11:15):
right right, that's also that's that's usually not going to
go well, but sometimes it does, depending on who you're
talking to and when and where.
Speaker 3 (11:21):
I think it's the millennial girls that are like ill
walk away from Like I don't see that.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
Like my friends and I like, we all like we
want to meet new.
Speaker 3 (11:28):
People, regardless of if people have husband whatever, you know,
we want to chat. I've heard from the younger generation
because I don't think they want to talk at all.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
They want to look at screens like they don't want
to talk to you. They're scared of they won't call
a reservation.
Speaker 1 (11:40):
There's Ashley, Hey, Ashley, Hi, Hi, So this is great.
A guy walked up to you and he said what.
Speaker 5 (11:49):
So I was working and I was working at a
bar and I saw someone order something that I liked
and I stopped next and I was like, oh you
got our what was a buffalo chick said? And he
just looks at me, stopped. He goes I want to
wear your skin on my face. And I just kind
of stared at him, and he stared at me, and
the bartender staired and it was almost like that Homer symponime,
(12:11):
hre you like back away slowly, yeah, And I just
like backed away into the kitchen, and then the bartender
kicked him out and grabbed a bouncer and he was
not allowed back at that facility.
Speaker 2 (12:21):
Well, that's why we're scared.
Speaker 1 (12:23):
Actually, everybody knows the mistake that was made here was it?
It's may I wear your skin on my face? That's
that's now. If only he had been more proper about it.
That that's that was the issue. So I understand.
Speaker 10 (12:35):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
And it was like the.
Speaker 5 (12:36):
Consistent eye contact after and I'm like, no, I don't
know what to do right now. It was very scary.
Speaker 2 (12:43):
I'm kind of funny though, but it is my uh
craziest line.
Speaker 5 (12:47):
I hope no one ever topps it.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
Yes, anyway, how long you guys been married?
Speaker 10 (12:55):
But yes, very married.
Speaker 5 (12:57):
Yeah, it did not work for me though.
Speaker 1 (12:58):
Okay, Actually, thank you. Have a good day here too.
That's crazy, Uh, Stephanie, how you doing? Good morning?
Speaker 10 (13:07):
Hi, good morning.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
This is an example of a guy objectifying you and
it worked.
Speaker 5 (13:13):
Yeah, we're engaged now ool?
Speaker 1 (13:17):
Do you but what did he say?
Speaker 7 (13:20):
Well?
Speaker 10 (13:20):
I mean I just literally walked past him, told him
he had nice tan to the legs, and just left.
And then the next time that I saw him at
the store, I looked at him.
Speaker 5 (13:32):
I was like, so did you go home and look
at your legs?
Speaker 1 (13:34):
And she was like, I mean kind of wait a minute,
so you you objectified him?
Speaker 10 (13:41):
I surd it.
Speaker 2 (13:42):
Does he shave? Why are he so smooth?
Speaker 1 (13:44):
Yeah, he has hairless legs.
Speaker 10 (13:49):
He used to be like an MMA fighter, so he
really didn't have Okay, I kind of like the hair
on his legs from grampling and stuff. So, but they
were really tanned, they were really smooth, and I was like,
let's go okay.
Speaker 1 (14:02):
Now, now honestly, if he now this is a guy
that you're with, but like, if he had said something
about your legs, how would that have gone over?
Speaker 10 (14:11):
Well, it would have been really weird because I didn't
have any like shorts or anything on. So by a
chance to ablieve at that point in time.
Speaker 7 (14:17):
I mean, yeah, how would you know?
Speaker 1 (14:19):
Okay, but nine times out of ten that's not gonna work, right,
Like we accept that. Correct. Okay, correct. So this is
a perfect example of it worked for you, guys, but
you got it. And if you're gonna if you're gonna
make that up, if you're going to say something like that,
then I think you have to know in your mind
nine times out of ten you're gonna get rejected. But
maybe one time it will work. But I don't know.
Like it worked for her, it did work for you.
(14:40):
I guess yeah, you're good for you, Stephanie. All right,
have a good days, Destiny, Yes, Destiny. What happened? This
is a pickup line. First of all, did it work
or it did not work? Oh?
Speaker 8 (14:55):
It worked enough for a first date?
Speaker 1 (14:56):
Okay? What happened?
Speaker 8 (14:59):
I was don thing in the middle of a bar
and someone randomly comes up to me shows me his phone.
I don't know if you know the game Trivia Crack.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
It's just a game that asked questions and he's like, hey, you.
Speaker 8 (15:10):
Look smart, can you answer this question for me? So
we end up playing Trivia Crack in the middle of
the bar. It turns out he ends up getting my
number and then went on a first date and he
ended up telling me. He's like, just to let you
know I seen you, and like, I had no other
way of thinking about talking to you. So I downloaded
the app and I went up to you and we
ended up playing.
Speaker 1 (15:28):
That's cute, okay, but only one day.
Speaker 8 (15:33):
It didn't get I mean, it didn't get any farther,
but it caught my attention, and I thought, I thought
the confidence was it was cute.
Speaker 2 (15:40):
Okay, fair enough, all right, thank you, Jessiny.
Speaker 1 (15:43):
Have a good day.
Speaker 8 (15:43):
You're welcome you too.
Speaker 1 (15:45):
I think we also need to get past the thing
where we're we're I mentioned I alluded to this earlier
mentioned it. But like we're proud of rejecting people too,
like or more, we're proud of dating fails. Yeah. Like again,
if a guy is gross or predatory or danger or
a cheater or stealing from you, then let's expose those people,
(16:05):
right like we always should have. But like the thing
where we go on a date and we both took
risk in going on the date and the date didn't
go the way we wanted it to. Like, that's how
that's dating. And I think it's even more risky when
you're on dating apps because because again the days of
the only option that we had was to talk to
each other and then gauge the vibe and the chemistry
(16:27):
before we went out. That's over. So now the first
time I'm getting any vibe from you whatsoever really in
person is when I first meet you, and maybe it
goes well and maybe it doesn't. But again, I mean,
it's not just in this era where you go on
a date with someone and they may not call you
for a second date. Yeah, you know what I mean, Like,
this is nothing new. The only thing that's different now
is that you can go blast those people publicly and
(16:50):
get mad at them. But again, it's since the dawn
of time, like men have been rejected. Women have not
gotten second dates. Men have not gotten gotten second dates.
Like it is what it is, right, So so short
of you being a terrible person who's actually like a like,
because what happens then is like maybe you're maybe that
person wasn't for you, but they're for the next person.
(17:10):
But now the next person's I'm interested because they heard
about some perspective from an anonymous other, you know what
I mean. It's like, yeah, I think technology all around
is screwing this up. The dating apps, the message boards,
all the rest of the stuff, because it's like, look,
maybe maybe you. Maybe I could meet two people at
the same time on the same day and you're not
for me, but the other one is. And it is
what it is, and the same goes for you. Like
when I go on dates with people from dating apps,
(17:31):
I assume they're talking to five other people. That's the game,
and so that if I don't get a second date,
I can be disappointed, but like or if they goes
to me, I can be disappointed.
Speaker 7 (17:40):
But I think it kind of comes with the territory,
right I think so too. Yeah, anyway, mag go out
with you. You got a thousand dollars, Okay, So that's
that's it, right, I got a thousand.
Speaker 2 (17:52):
Dollars the biggest stories of the day, all right.
Speaker 1 (17:55):
So airports are resuming normal schedules. However, go while for
it to ramp up, and you're not going to be
able to have any recourse as far as the financial
benefits the government. You know, guarantees been flights, you are laid,
so they rescinded all of the compensation. Airports across the
(18:15):
US would be a little bit less stressful now, hopefully,
now that the FAA has edited its Emergency Flight for
Reduction order, that they're calling them. A reduction in flights
of dozens of major airports began a week ago to
help address the staffing issues among air traffic controllers during
the government shutdown. This led to thousands of flights being
delayed and canceled just as a busy Thanksgiving travel period approaches.
But things have been improving and the reductions have been lifted,
(18:39):
and I guess they're adding more and more flights. But
they did say the government said that the rules that
compensate travelers for airline delays are no longer in place,
at least not right now. That means that passengers who
deal with long flight delays have no way to push
back against the airlines. I guess that's because the government
told them they had to do this. So then if
your flights are messed up, well, it's the government's fault.
So then the airlines shouldn't have to be penalized because
(19:00):
the purpose of you getting paid was the airline screwed
something up, so they got to pay you, and not
just keep you on the plane and give you water
for eight hours. Yikes, it turns out you can't do that.
The Cambridge Dictionary has named its word of the year. Parasocial. Okay,
parasocial is the word you used to describe a connection
that people feel with someone that they don't know, or
(19:22):
even an artificial intelligence they're saying. The term was coined
in nineteen fifty six by two sociologists who wanted to
describe how television viewers formed parasocial relationship with TV personalities.
The Dictionary said that this is going to be the
word of the year.
Speaker 2 (19:38):
I guess.
Speaker 1 (19:40):
I guess you could argue there are people out there
that haven't met us that have parasocial relationship with us. Right,
They've never actually met us, and we've never actually met them,
but we feel that we have relationships with them. Or
that you listen every morning because of whatever, or you
listen every morning to hate on us. Either way, it's parasocial.
The phenomena continues today as social media users formed parasocial
relationship for celebrities, influencers, and online personalities with whom they
(20:03):
have no personal connection. A key example cited by the
Cambridge Dictionary is singer Taylor Swift, who announced her engagement
to Travis Kelcey this year, with many evans expressing heartfelt
feelings towards a couple that most people will never and
have never met, which I think that's a great example
because you know, the whole world was captivated by this
(20:24):
relationship and by his courtship and by are they together
are they not? And then him chasing her around the
world on the Aras tour, and then her going to games,
and then them getting engaged, and ninety nine point nine
percent of people have never met either one of them,
but yet they're cheering them on because it's his nice
love story, right. Yes, so that's a perfect example.
Speaker 2 (20:43):
Parasocial of the year though, like who voted?
Speaker 1 (20:46):
What was the other one I gave you as a
ward of the year? Six seven? I mean so I
think that's a that's a better word than the rest. Okay,
we'll take it. But everything so AI now, like I
feel like in the last six months it's AI. And
it's been like this for a while, but it's lately
it's just a AI. AI. Everything's AI. Yes, so the
word probably had to incorporate get them, Yeah, yeah, your therapist,
(21:09):
your business partner.
Speaker 2 (21:11):
You guys.
Speaker 6 (21:11):
If you're not on the AI BO, if you're not
on the train, you will be left behind. So you
need to really immerse yourself I'd enjoy it. It'll be
left out.
Speaker 1 (21:20):
I told you, I'm on it. I have the fifteen
dollars a month subscription. I just need to find someone
who's much more tech savvy than I am to teach
me what I'm supposed to be doing with it.
Speaker 2 (21:29):
It's not hard, you guys. He is creative if you
want to be you know all the crazy things you
can do.
Speaker 1 (21:34):
Your entire life isn't automated, so you don't pretend like
you're the A.
Speaker 2 (21:37):
My life is very automated.
Speaker 1 (21:39):
You know yesterday, but you're still showing forty five minutes
late to everything.
Speaker 6 (21:43):
Not anymore because of AI. I literally say, hey, how
long to take me to get ready?
Speaker 2 (21:47):
I'm just getting.
Speaker 1 (21:50):
With your with your rollers and your baby in your hands,
your roller? I need some roller right right?
Speaker 2 (21:55):
Brillion blowout?
Speaker 1 (21:56):
You're Brazilian blowout? Down? May I you out?
Speaker 8 (22:02):
May I know you?
Speaker 1 (22:04):
What was the line? Again? I don't know media or
should I get ay Ey to do it for me? No,
I'm with you. I'm completely with you that that AI
is it and we either embrace it or I get it.
But I'm what I'm telling you is it. There are
layers of this that I don't even understand. I just
need someone to tell me what I should be doing
with it. No one to really tell you what to do.
(22:26):
It's really based on your life. For example, can I
say what it yesterday? And this might work for you too,
but I don't know how much? Put you out in
the fridge.
Speaker 6 (22:31):
You can take a picture of like what you have,
if you have like leftover this or that or whatever
ingredients and say, hey, what can I make with this
a picture?
Speaker 1 (22:39):
I would love to know what I can make with
French mustards, going to say you champagne and champagne. I
would love to know, probably a vinaigrette of something in
the store right you're nearest jewel Osco. But you guys
know what I'm saying. Like, like Pauleene over here is
an AI master. Maybe she's the one I have to hire.
I like, I don't know. I don't know what I'm
(23:00):
supposed to be doing. Like I know that it can
help me with you know, writing things. I know it
can help me with you know, captions and posts, and
I know that it can I know it can do
all these things. But like I need someone to look
at my life and go, oh, it can be responding
to this, and it can be doing that, and you
can program it to do this and it'll tell you
how to do that. Because it's not as simple as
you don't get the best results of you if you're
(23:20):
just a novice. You get better results if you know
what you're doing. I don't know what I'm doing. Whatch
really depends on on the day, Like what do you
want to do? You want to write that children's book
you've talked about?
Speaker 6 (23:29):
Do you want to I don't know, pitch ideas to
You have a TV show that we get to watch
every every night, right, so like do you have topics
for the show?
Speaker 8 (23:36):
Can you?
Speaker 2 (23:36):
I don't know. It's different things different days.
Speaker 1 (23:38):
I will say that I haven't been that impressed. That's
that's what I mean though, Like that, like the base level,
Like if I just go to it and say tell
me what we should talk about on the radio, it
gives me terrible ideas because.
Speaker 2 (23:50):
You're on top culture.
Speaker 1 (23:51):
Okay, But Pauline Booming, I know what I'm doing.
Speaker 2 (23:56):
You have to talk to her.
Speaker 6 (23:57):
You've seen you're treating her kind of like a side chick,
Like you gotta.
Speaker 2 (24:01):
Be good to her. You gotta tell her the time
fread earth like a side chick. What are we gonna
do when you have nowhere to stand? Because I am
ruined the plant? Well, there's a lot of things ruining
the planet unfortunately, but yes, you're true, let's ruin it more.
Speaker 1 (24:12):
I don't know.
Speaker 5 (24:12):
Well, no, I don't.
Speaker 6 (24:13):
I disagree with you actually about that, because if it's good,
it's not going anywhere. That's the sad part. It's not
going anywhere. But if you actually are behind it, you
can make the changes of like, Okay, we don't want
to pump so much water. What can we do to
like preserve the earth and not use all this water
to pump you know, Fred's questions out today, like you
get what I'm saying. It's not going and.
Speaker 1 (24:28):
Sad questions that are giving me bad answers. So why
is so much water getting pumped up? I meet you.
Speaker 2 (24:34):
Specific? No, I mean yeah, I want them to be
a different way. And will there every be a different way?
I don't know.
Speaker 6 (24:39):
I hope so, because that is really sad and I
don't like that it's using all of our water to
pump out questions. But okay, you have to be specific,
for I'm very passionate about this. He has to be
very specific.
Speaker 1 (24:48):
And I'm saying is I didn't know that, So I
need someone.
Speaker 2 (24:51):
To teach me that, to be specific about yourself.
Speaker 1 (24:54):
I don't think it's that simple, Paulina. I think I
think that there are probably people out there who have
degrees in this they do who could, And that's why
are you arguing? That's who I want to talk to you.
I want someone to follow me around and say here,
do this, and do that, and ask it this way,
and teach it this and do this and then this,
and then it's going to make your life easier in
(25:14):
this way, because I don't know how. I hear you.
Speaker 2 (25:17):
May I help you.
Speaker 3 (25:18):
May I meet you to help you. Okay, let's ask
her a question right now? Should we like, what should
we do for the entertainer reporter? Let's ask her, Oh, no,
I've done.
Speaker 1 (25:27):
I trust her. I've tried to make I've tried that.
Speaker 9 (25:29):
And that's the problem and it should I'm trying to
ask them what we do on this show, like I
do what I do. Kaitlin gonna do what she do,
don't ask about entertainment report. I'm all right, yeah, and
I'm not gonna play with her.
Speaker 1 (25:41):
See. Okay, So I got two separate sides of the
argument here keep me wants Ai to die? And is
an expert.
Speaker 2 (25:50):
Here how to please all your women when it comes
to these women in this room, because we're on opposite ends.
Speaker 1 (25:57):
The way that I see it is, I can I
am a I can cook. I can cook basic food
right like you. If you give me some ingredients, I
can make you basic food. I can make you eggs
and grilled cheese, and I can make you basic stuff
and it tastes fine. But if I wanted to get
to a culinary, like, you know, some sort of gourmet level,
then I would need someone to teach me that, like
(26:17):
I would need someone to say, here's how you can
make it better. That's what I'm saying, is I need
you know what I just it would be helpful to me.
Speaker 2 (26:24):
Where's the manual?
Speaker 1 (26:26):
That's what I mean. There are probably My point is
there are probably ways in which things can be even
easier for me, and I don't and I don't know
how to do it. So that's all I'm saying. And
so then you're offering to help me, which is exactly
how we got on this eight minute rant. Was I
need someone to help me. So you could have just
said I'll help you, and then we didn't have to
have this because you're admitting and you're acknowledging. I don't
know what I'm doing.
Speaker 2 (26:44):
Listen, it's not AI's top. She's a tough one. But
we got it.
Speaker 1 (26:48):
We got this.
Speaker 2 (26:48):
You and I are getting together after work.
Speaker 1 (26:50):
I can't wait. Yeah. A routine flight turned into a
mid air emergency for a Jet Blue flight from Boston
to Tampa, Kiki. And meantime, she just burned my computer down.
She burned it. She just unplugged it and handed me
a pencil.
Speaker 9 (27:01):
Ai works for you. You don't work for a period. Okay,
just keep that in mind, Paul. You are in control.
Speaker 6 (27:08):
You're in control. You have a seed it information. I'm Fred,
I'm this person, this is my personality.
Speaker 2 (27:13):
This is how I talk. You have to be specific.
I'm gonna go grab a coffee right.
Speaker 1 (27:18):
This is the information I was asking for that you
were yelling at me for not knowing. So back to
my story. A routine flight turned into a mid air
emergency for a Jet Blue flight from Boston to tamp
but was forced to make a return to Boston's Logan
Airport because a passenger in first class had been vaping
marijuana in the lavatory. The crew then inhaled the smoke
got secondhand high. Apparently, the plane was fully fueled and
(27:41):
thus overweight for a safe landing, so the pilot had
to issue an emergency call to air traffic Control. During communications,
they asked that the cockpit was secure. The guy said
that the disturbance involved the lavatory. Thankfully, the flight landed
safely back in Boston. With that injuries or further incidents,
the passenger responsible faces federal charges a lifetime airline van
and the airline may pursue civil charges. This could actually
(28:03):
be pretty bad if that, if the vapes then go
into the cockpit and those guys breathe it in. How
addicted are you that you can't take a flight? I know,
I know, but I mean if the pilots get high,
that's not ideal. No, you know you want to get high, fine,
but like pilot's so right, you know when it comes
down for landing. I know, guys, if they're you know,
(28:24):
ordering taco bell on door to ash and trying to
figure out, you know, where to get a pizza, I
need you focused a new s from the this is great.
The American Christmas Tree Association, which is also known in
the industry as the ACTA, everybody knows that they're showing.
The artificial Christmas tree market is the clear favorite for
US homes. Eighty three percent of households that plan to
(28:45):
display a tree this year have chosen a fake one.
Despite some concerns about tariffs and important goods, demand for
an artificial tree remains strong and steady. Speaking of the holidays,
apparently more people are planning to rentothing for everything from
holiday parties to keeping warm coach to ugly sweaters.
Speaker 2 (29:06):
I do it every month.
Speaker 1 (29:07):
Ugly sweater. That is a good idea because because the
last ones is the last time. First of all, you know,
I'm not a theme party guy. No, and you want
me to come to ugly sweater party, I probably just
wear a normal sweater, so people will just think it's ugly,
but like you buy it right, they're usually very animated, enunciated.
(29:30):
You know it's got a slogan on it, or a
thing you really can't like recycle that, Like, you can't
wear the same ugly sweater to every year, so then
you just sort of sits there or you donate it
or you throw it away or whatever. So I mean, imagine,
just rent the ugly sweater and then send it back
and then we're not wasting ugly, we're not wasting stuff
because like an ugly sweater party, like you're gonna wear
that once a year maybe, So apparently people are doing this.
(29:53):
I know a lot of people do it. Like my
friends at the TV station, they most of their clothes
rent rent. I do it every month because it's like
I got to wear a new outfit on TV every night.
So because because some viewer will write them and say
I saw that dress on January third, that's crazy. So
they rent clothes, which makes a lot of sense because
they're wearing designer stuff every night. But then they can
just send it back and get new stuff. That's smart.
(30:15):
But I never thought about it as it pertained like
holiday parties and like big jackets, Like if you're traveling
somewhere you need a big coat. Maybe you don't live
somewhere where you need a big coat, so you don't
get to spend the money. So people are renting clothing
you every month.
Speaker 2 (30:27):
Yeah, every month.
Speaker 1 (30:28):
I love it.
Speaker 2 (30:29):
It's my favorite thing. I will not say which company
I use.
Speaker 3 (30:32):
It's not rent the rack because I've tried to do
things with them and they will not do anything with me.
Speaker 2 (30:36):
But I love it. It's aside from this year, which
I'm wearing j C. Penny too. Usually I do it
for things like Jingle Bosh to where it's.
Speaker 1 (30:42):
Like so even though it's I think it's women's stuff.
Speaker 3 (30:45):
The women's in juniors. Well yeah and girls, yeah, yeah,
what are you wearing? Are you wearing the hotpants that
I'm gonna wear? Are you gonna wear it a long?
Speaker 1 (30:51):
I was going to Since you're wearing the hotpants, I'll
wear the long sequencedpell.
Speaker 2 (30:56):
Bottoms okay, and you want the crop like semi obviously.
Speaker 1 (31:00):
I lost some weights, so yeah, that's that's the move.
Speaker 3 (31:03):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (31:04):
No, it makes a lot of sense though, I just
never thought about it as it pertains to holiday parties
exclusively or holiday stuff that you're never gonna wear again.
And finally today guys, and I think I'm gonna send
Paulina to this because she's so impassioned. Well similar some
parents are turning to digital detox camp for children and teams.
(31:26):
It might be a dream for me. Actual there's like
a lake there and a tree. Yeah, parents interviewed say
that they've tried time limits, parental control apps, and endless negotiations,
but nothing stick. So now they're paying thousands to send
kids to unplugged camps in the woods, structured reset programs,
(31:49):
and tech free retreats designed to break the cycle of
scrolling and gaming. These camps promise it when parents feel
they can't deliver at home. No phones, no apps, no TikTok,
just real world activity counselors who specialize in tech dependence
and days built around face to face interaction. We have
to send people to camps now to get you to
do stuff that's not on a screen. Wow. And apparently
(32:13):
programs now have wait lists stretching months and months. I
can't get in.
Speaker 3 (32:18):
My friends who have taken away their kids devices for
extended periods of time say that they have different children
when they don't have their devices.
Speaker 2 (32:24):
They don't throw.
Speaker 3 (32:25):
Tantrums, they don't argue as much like they're present, they
want to hang out and talk to the family. It
just stinks because then the friends at school still have
their technology, and that's like the hard part.
Speaker 9 (32:35):
But remember that time I was on a cruise ship
and I didn't have Wi Fi and almost jumped.
Speaker 1 (32:40):
Yeah, they had to get that coast Guard helicopter to
fly you away because you were having seizures and shaking. Yes,
that was a real waste of resources. Kid, Like, I
don't think it was necessary.
Speaker 2 (32:48):
Oh no, it was like it it gets dangerous. Are
you trying to refresh that timeline and it won't go?
Oh no, telling what you make?
Speaker 1 (32:55):
What does our companies say to me? Who I respect?
But I thought it was kind of dramatic until I
thought about it, and when you first hear the statement,
it seems dramatic. But he said that some to the
effective giving kids phones is like giving kids cigarettes in
the eighties or something. It was something like that, and
I was like, oh, I don't know about that, And
then I thought about it. It's like or what or
(33:17):
maybe it's a different example, but it was something that
was like readily available to kids in different generations that
no one really thought a whole lot of No one
gives kids cigarettes. It wasn't that for yourself. I'm trying
to I also textimacy, but it was like, wow, that's
really But it's the point that he was trying to
make is that we don't realize the danger that we're
introducing into kids' lives when we give them access to
(33:37):
this tech, because it seems harmless until it's not. No,
it probably wasn't cigarettes, it wasn't explosives either, but.
Speaker 2 (33:45):
It's something that dangerous.
Speaker 1 (33:46):
Though.
Speaker 2 (33:46):
I get what he was trying to say.
Speaker 1 (33:47):
I do too, But when I first heard it, I'm like, oh, bro,
Like that's a little dramatic. And then then I said
and thought about it for a minute, I'm like, no, no, Like, actually,
I wonder if in twenty years there's going to be
a whole stuff and residual mental illness and and and
already seeing it I think socially and social skills and
stuff like that as a result of people's reliance on tech,
(34:10):
and how tech is something that is introduced to kids
at the youngest age and so it's like a dependency.
I mean, imagine, I mean it's dependency for us as adults,
and we had a life without it. Imagine if you
were born and you never had But on the flip side,
I would probably have done better in school if I
had access to YouTube and the internet in some ways,
not because I would cheat, but because half the time
I'd go home and I couldn't answer it like a
(34:31):
math question, and now I could go type and YouTube.
Someone explained it to me. You know, that's just one example.
So there's a plus, there's pluses and minuses. No, man,
it's Mickey Mouse's birthday.
Speaker 8 (34:41):
Guys.
Speaker 1 (34:41):
We've covered a lot of topics. We've covered how to
act with women and men in the world. We've learned
that Paulina has a PhD in AI, and we've we've
addressed very serious issues like tech and the with children.
So don't say there's no substance on this show. Yes
to Entertainment Report, he's on the Bread.
Speaker 2 (35:02):
Show a couple quick stories.
Speaker 3 (35:04):
Share will grace the SNL stage as musical guests for
the first time in thirty eight years, alongside Miss Ariana
Grande as host, who is actually very funny. If you
didn't know, Cher appeared on the show as a musical
guest in nineteen eighty seven performing We All Sleep Alone
and I Found Someone. She also made a brief cameo
in nineteen ninety two during Weekend Update. Arian Share will
(35:26):
be the host and musical guests for the show's Christmas episode,
and they announce that on Instagram and Shack will serve
as a judge along with other NBA greats like Duyight Howard,
Nate Robinson, Chris Weber, and Moore on Dunkman, a six
episode reality competition show set to air across Warner Brothers
channels all they have like HBO, Max TNT that's coming
(35:49):
in December. Forty amateur dunkers from around the globe will
compete for a two hundred thousand dollars prize, which.
Speaker 5 (35:56):
They get a little more money.
Speaker 2 (35:57):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (35:59):
Adam Lefko, a sports commentarator and podcaster, has worked with
Shaq in the past, and he will host the show.
They keep calling it a program which makes me feel
like I'm a nana A program A program.
Speaker 4 (36:09):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (36:09):
Starts Thursday, December fourth, at seven depending or eight, depending
on where you are.
Speaker 1 (36:14):
I think they should make more than two hundred grand,
don't you think so?
Speaker 3 (36:17):
Like these days, like for a reality show prize? Yeah,
I think so, because I mean, after Texas, I don't
even know what that would be fourteen dollars. I also
can't dunk, so you can't. I know, I looked like
you not being able to dunk. You know, I used
to be able to dunk. I you know, ball is life,
but I haven't tried.
Speaker 1 (36:33):
In a while. I can't. I we one time went
and played one on Want and she posterized me. She
just dunked right on my face. I don't know what
that means, but I did. When somebody dunks over somebody
in like that moment when they were like when the
one guy is like, because the other guy just dunked
on him and one shot, it becomes a poster. They
call that posterizing.
Speaker 2 (36:50):
Yeah, me in the air like Jordan, yeah, like and
then me like, yeah.
Speaker 1 (36:53):
My face is all messed up because you just pushed
me out of the way and then you dunk it
over me.
Speaker 10 (36:57):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (36:58):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (36:58):
We should put that on a shirt. We should that photocaun.
Speaker 1 (37:02):
I have a shirt of Jordan dunking over Lebron like
in a very aggressive way. But that never happened because
they never played together. But I still wear passion. I
think it is I think I still wear it sometimes
like it never happened, but it's Lebron like and Jordan,
you know fight.
Speaker 2 (37:19):
Oh that would have been a time. By the way,
if you want to catch up on our show, just
take the French.
Speaker 11 (37:23):
Onwonder Man on the Free iHeart radio app that reminds
me of the rant I sometimes go on when I
used to watch that show, and sometimes it still pops
up on like I don't know own or something, but
that that show Undercover Boss.
Speaker 1 (37:35):
It always used to upset me. And granted, like they're
very generous, but like I always felt like we hear
for the whole episode how rich these people are, Like
the Undercover Boss, you know, the jets in the big
house and the fancy cars, and all we hear for
forty five minutes is how rich these guys are and
how hard it is for them to live in these
crappy hotels and like put on the fake beard and
(37:57):
go work in their own business. And at the end,
it's like, we're gonna give you ten thousand dollars for
your kids scholarship. It's like you're a billionaire, ry for college.
And then and then a couple of them did a
couple of because clearly the show had like a there
was like a formula for how much you because it
was pretty similar. It was like fifty grand for everybody
kind of thing. But like and then occasionally I think
on a couple episodes, a guy would be like and
(38:18):
I'm buying you a house, you know, and you're like yes,
like that's life changing and you can afford it. But
I used to get mad at the end of the
thing because it didn't seem like enough money to me.
Be like, wow, you have a you know, you have
these challenges in this and you're such an amazing person.
Everyone loves you. Here's here's a gift card.
Speaker 2 (38:37):
And you're like, no, in the restaurant that you want.
Speaker 1 (38:41):
This is free advertising, dude, like by them, like, you know, here,
we're going to give you five grand towards a car
that costs fifty give just buy the car. It's such
good press. But I used to sit there and get
so mad. Then every now and again some guy would
be just be wildly generous. I was like, okay, or girl,
I think that lady used to run Cinnabun gave somebody
a cinabun, which I'm sure that wasn't that expensive to Cinnabun,
(39:04):
you know, like to give them. Yeah, but like here's
a muffin or whatever, like you know, here's a here's
a role. No, no, no. I think it was like
an assistant manager who was like doing great in the
location she worked in. So she gave him or her
I can't remember their own location, and I'm sure it
wasn't as wildly extravagant as it seems for Cinabun to
(39:25):
give someone a Cinabun, But it was still very cool
because it's like it would be like if somebody had
come along. I know, they offered you this giky, but
like here, here's your own KFC free and clear, have
ad it, Like that would be rad I don't know,
I'll take the gift card. In more press show next

Someone will perform on SNL for the first time in
thirty eight years, and there's.
Speaker 4 (01:23):
Only a few people that could probably be if you
think about it, Jesus, Yes, Moses, he's there too. Hellob Yes,
it's what we've all been asking for. That's exaciples. Yeah, well,
you're right, it could only be a few people.
Speaker 3 (01:39):
Because thirty eight years in between when they would watch
you and they'd still want you.
Speaker 1 (01:43):
That's true.
Speaker 2 (01:44):
That's crazy.
Speaker 1 (01:44):
No, that is true. That is true. So there's a
billionaire who has a pickup line that he wants everybody
to know about. And I want to know if this
would work. What I really want to know is is
what what would work in twenty twenty five as a
for aims to I guess this could be online, but
you know, I suppose you could DM this to somebody,
(02:07):
but you know, maybe in person. But this guy's name
is Bill Ackman. He's a hedge fund guy. Now, I
don't know how we get all the money. Maybe it
was from hedge funds. But his pickup line that he
claims works is or did work. I'm not sure if
the guy's married. He's a older guy. May I meet you?
(02:28):
May may I meet you? Well?
Speaker 2 (02:31):
Thank you?
Speaker 1 (02:32):
So he got mocked online after sharing dating advice for
a young man on social media. He's always fifty nine,
you know, yeah, it's giving. I thought he was older actually,
but he's fifty nine. And he suggested using the pickup
line may I meet you before starting a conversation with women,
saying that you almost never got to know when he
was younger. So this was a post on X I
guess I's been viewed twenty six million times and prompted
(02:53):
thousands of comments and mocking memes. People called him out
of touch and joke that trying the line and getting
to we'll get the police called on them. One person
said that women only said yes to him because he's
a billionaire financier, but he replied that he didn't have
money back when he was using that line, may I
meet you? What is James mad about? James says, uh,
(03:16):
I'm sure to stop throwing shade at you. I mean apparently,
I don't know. Yeah, I'm not sure there was no shade. Yeah,
I know, I know, I'm just I'm confused. Anyway, I
was confused. Man again, what does stop?
Speaker 5 (03:31):
Right?
Speaker 2 (03:32):
You know she knows he.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
Throw some shade, I'll throw some shade. Not not our James.
This was a text. I know. This was not our boss, James.
Our boss James did not ask me. She actually like
he would like more shade and more drama if anything.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
James.
Speaker 6 (03:47):
Yeah, yeah, man, I meet you, may meet you absolutely, not.
Speaker 1 (03:51):
Only in the dark. I guess I think that.
Speaker 6 (03:52):
Sounds like one of those like African prince princess. You
know what I'm talking about, Like, Man, I meet you.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
Like said send you money, Like that's what it's going.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
Oh, he's talking about bellehemine. By the way, that the cavities.
She has five cavities.
Speaker 3 (04:04):
She told us that, well she had six, but she
gets to take two out with her wisdom teams.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
I thought all of them had cavity. I thought she'd
have all they all had cavit. I thought you had
ten total or something? Was it two of the wisdom
teeths worth it's four and four and two wisdom, So
there were eight wow or six anyway, man, meet you
meet you? No, No, you can I meet me. I
don't like that at all.
Speaker 7 (04:29):
Meet anyone and I literally the bars on the floor,
and that would still freak me out.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
I would feel like you're trying to, like, you know,
keep me in a trunk or something.
Speaker 1 (04:37):
If you said, if I got a thing a DM
that said may I meet you, I would think it
was like a scammer. That's because there's such an old
timey way to talk that I would think that it
was somebody who didn't maybe have a mastery of current
you know, sort of phraseology.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
Yeah, or lived in a different country. That's what I
would truly think.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
Yeah, because that's just not the way people talk, and
it's very polite and proper and whatever else.
Speaker 3 (04:58):
Someone asked if I was spoken for the other day
and my DMS, and I was like, wow, I haven't
heard that since the.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
Forties, Like it, are you spoken boken.
Speaker 8 (05:09):
Right?
Speaker 1 (05:09):
Right?
Speaker 2 (05:09):
Do you have a dowry?
Speaker 1 (05:11):
Yeah? Well do you? I'd like to know what your
dad's willing to pay you? Well, yeah, trade me out
to get you to get you off the payroll. May
I meet you m, yeah, but what here's the better
the better question though? Eight five, five, five, nine one
one three five you can call and text the same number.
What what would work? Like? What do you want to
(05:32):
hear from men approaching you? Is that because you have
a boyfriend? Because you just don't want people that you
don't want to talking to men to talk to you
at all? But like, here's the thing, real period. I
know you're kidding kind of, but you're not. You have
a boyfriend, so you're probably not kidding, But like, all
I should think.
Speaker 6 (05:51):
I wear a sweatsuit that says I have a boyfriend
in the top and bottom you know, no.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
And I guess this person couldn't read because I can
see it every single day. And I guess this person
didn't take the time to when you asked if you're
spoken for him? Like haven't you seen her outfit today?
And every day? But I you know, you hear a lot,
whether it's social media or whatever. You hear people say
that they women saying that they want men to approach
(06:16):
them in the wild. The problem is out of you
know you all. You also hear a lot of people
saying they don't want to be approached in the wild,
or they make fun of the guys who approach them
in the wild, and so you can't have it both ways.
Or you get on some app and you make fun
of guys, or you trash guys that that you know
did there. And I'm not talking about the guys who
said like disgusting things or very clever things like I'm
(06:38):
going to break every chair in the room so that
you don't have any place to sit, like one guy
said to you. Now, that is well, highly inappropriate. That
is that is that is creative.
Speaker 2 (06:46):
Sometimes I take a step back and I go, you know,
I'm not even mad.
Speaker 1 (06:48):
Like like I got it. I'm like, I'm like, I'm
not I'm not going to enter a room and where
are no chairs? But like I also, okay points you know,
every now and again, I think you could you could
say something like that to the person and they might think, like,
you know, if they have a little bit of an
off sense of humor like we do, they might they
might step back and be like, okay, but but nine
times out of ten that's not gonna work. Nine times
(07:10):
out of ten you're gonna wind up getting made fun of.
But so that's my thing is, do you want to
be approached, and if you do, what's actually going to work? Now?
Of course you want them to be respectful and not
you know, be gross and and whatever. But like, the
key to this is you want to be approached. If
I'm guessing, you want to be approached by the guys
that you want to be approached by. And and we
(07:31):
as men don't know whether we're the guy you want
to be approached by or not, so we don't approach
out of fear of all these other things. So I
guess if that's the case, if you want to be
approached by men or whatever, I think we have to
get to a place where we can kindly brush people
off as a standard in society. And then, by the way,
once you're kindly brushed off, you need to step off. Yeah,
(07:51):
you need to. You need to leave. You need to
you need to leave. She doesn't want to meet you,
bro and then and then you need to leave. You
need to not respond. If it's in a DM, you
don't need to have some smart comeback because you were rejected.
You don't have to project, you don't have to say
something I don't want you anyway, which is what everybody
there's so much of this stuff. That's my favorite that
(08:12):
people do. It's any want to go out with me? No,
well you know you think you're hot stuff. Dude, you
asked me a question, I gave you an answer. Now
you need to walk away now. So there's that. So
this isn't all on women. This is on men too,
because men have a tendency to act like idiots.
Speaker 3 (08:27):
I'm a fan of the like for both of both
parties involved, the like don't make it feel like you're
hitting on me situations, so like, come up, talk about
something different, make a joke, point something out at the bar,
then feel my energy. If I'm engaging, or if I'm like, oh,
my friend's waving across the bar, then we can both
leave the situation either not embarrassed, or you proceed hitting
on me, like I don't make me feel like you're
(08:48):
hitting on me. Don't be like, hello, ma'am, you know
I'd like to dance with you. You know, just let's let's
just talk talk about the bar. Is it crowded? You know?
Speaker 2 (08:56):
Do I have a dream? YadA YadA?
Speaker 3 (08:58):
Okay, And so no one gets it's embarrassed either way,
because then you could feel if I'm like I got
to go to the bathroom.
Speaker 1 (09:04):
That's true, that's true. Take a hint, like, you know,
is it conversation flowing organically or are you forcing it?
If you're forcing it to walk away.
Speaker 2 (09:11):
Yep, it's over, then you're not embarrassed, and neither of mine.
Speaker 1 (09:14):
Kiki, how you know? Well?
Speaker 2 (09:16):
What why are you rolling your eye?
Speaker 1 (09:19):
You're technically single but engaged because you're not married, But
when you were actually actually single? Yes, how did you
want to see what I'm talking about? That's why I
rolled my eyes. I don't even know the rules anymore,
But how did you want to be approached?
Speaker 2 (09:33):
So I want you to approach me?
Speaker 9 (09:35):
And then just if I call the police on you,
deesn't means I don't want you.
Speaker 2 (09:38):
And then if I don't, it's.
Speaker 1 (09:39):
A good sign. In my experience, that's been a good sign.
Speaker 2 (09:43):
If I don't call the police, we good, you know,
like keep talking that's the alternative or rash.
Speaker 9 (09:48):
Because I am one of those women who I would
hype me in up like you gotta approach women.
Speaker 2 (09:53):
Man, You gotta go out there in a while.
Speaker 9 (09:55):
You got to shoot your shot, man, and then the
moment you shoot your shot at me, if you're not
the man I want. I'm like, please get them.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
So this is kind of what I'm talking about, right
because like as a guy like guilty, I don't know.
I don't know, like I you know, it's like I
don't want to wind it. If I walk up to
the right girl at the right time, and I'm the
guys she wants to talk to, and then I talked
to her, then that's what she wanted and that goes well.
But if I'm not then then a lot of different
(10:24):
things could happen. And so yes, I guess I'm a
little insecure about it. But but then but then you say,
that's what you want. But are you you know, are
as a society are we receiving that as well as
we possibly could? You know what I mean?
Speaker 2 (10:39):
Like, it's hard, it's hard being a man, because.
Speaker 1 (10:42):
I don't think it's hard. I know, I don't think
it's hard in this one regard. This is tricky.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
Yeah, man, I wouldn't know what to do.
Speaker 1 (10:52):
This is tricky. It is not hard to be a
man at all. But this is a little tricky because
it's like different age demographics are looking for different things,
and sometimes you can be really forward and sometimes you can't,
and then sometimes you're not forward enough. You know, if
you're may I meet you, then that you're gonna get
made fun of. But if you're like, yeah, you know,
can I can I you know, get up a yeah
(11:15):
right right, that's also that's that's usually not going to
go well, but sometimes it does, depending on who you're
talking to and when and where.
Speaker 3 (11:21):
I think it's the millennial girls that are like ill
walk away from Like I don't see that.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
Like my friends and I like, we all like we
want to meet new.
Speaker 3 (11:28):
People, regardless of if people have husband whatever, you know,
we want to chat. I've heard from the younger generation
because I don't think they want to talk at all.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
They want to look at screens like they don't want
to talk to you. They're scared of they won't call
a reservation.
Speaker 1 (11:40):
There's Ashley, Hey, Ashley, Hi, Hi, So this is great.
A guy walked up to you and he said what.
Speaker 5 (11:49):
So I was working and I was working at a
bar and I saw someone order something that I liked
and I stopped next and I was like, oh you
got our what was a buffalo chick said? And he
just looks at me, stopped. He goes I want to
wear your skin on my face. And I just kind
of stared at him, and he stared at me, and
the bartender staired and it was almost like that Homer symponime,
(12:11):
hre you like back away slowly, yeah, And I just
like backed away into the kitchen, and then the bartender
kicked him out and grabbed a bouncer and he was
not allowed back at that facility.
Speaker 2 (12:21):
Well, that's why we're scared.
Speaker 1 (12:23):
Actually, everybody knows the mistake that was made here was it?
It's may I wear your skin on my face? That's
that's now. If only he had been more proper about it.
That that's that was the issue. So I understand.
Speaker 10 (12:35):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
And it was like the.
Speaker 5 (12:36):
Consistent eye contact after and I'm like, no, I don't
know what to do right now. It was very scary.
Speaker 2 (12:43):
I'm kind of funny though, but it is my uh
craziest line.
Speaker 5 (12:47):
I hope no one ever topps it.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
Yes, anyway, how long you guys been married?
Speaker 10 (12:55):
But yes, very married.
Speaker 5 (12:57):
Yeah, it did not work for me though.
Speaker 1 (12:58):
Okay, Actually, thank you. Have a good day here too.
That's crazy, Uh, Stephanie, how you doing? Good morning?
Speaker 10 (13:07):
Hi, good morning.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
This is an example of a guy objectifying you and
it worked.
Speaker 5 (13:13):
Yeah, we're engaged now ool?
Speaker 1 (13:17):
Do you but what did he say?
Speaker 7 (13:20):
Well?
Speaker 10 (13:20):
I mean I just literally walked past him, told him
he had nice tan to the legs, and just left.
And then the next time that I saw him at
the store, I looked at him.
Speaker 5 (13:32):
I was like, so did you go home and look
at your legs?
Speaker 1 (13:34):
And she was like, I mean kind of wait a minute,
so you you objectified him?
Speaker 10 (13:41):
I surd it.
Speaker 2 (13:42):
Does he shave? Why are he so smooth?
Speaker 1 (13:44):
Yeah, he has hairless legs.
Speaker 10 (13:49):
He used to be like an MMA fighter, so he
really didn't have Okay, I kind of like the hair
on his legs from grampling and stuff. So, but they
were really tanned, they were really smooth, and I was like,
let's go okay.
Speaker 1 (14:02):
Now, now honestly, if he now this is a guy
that you're with, but like, if he had said something
about your legs, how would that have gone over?
Speaker 10 (14:11):
Well, it would have been really weird because I didn't
have any like shorts or anything on. So by a
chance to ablieve at that point in time.
Speaker 7 (14:17):
I mean, yeah, how would you know?
Speaker 1 (14:19):
Okay, but nine times out of ten that's not gonna work, right,
Like we accept that. Correct. Okay, correct. So this is
a perfect example of it worked for you, guys, but
you got it. And if you're gonna if you're gonna
make that up, if you're going to say something like that,
then I think you have to know in your mind
nine times out of ten you're gonna get rejected. But
maybe one time it will work. But I don't know.
Like it worked for her, it did work for you.
(14:40):
I guess yeah, you're good for you, Stephanie. All right,
have a good days, Destiny, Yes, Destiny. What happened? This
is a pickup line. First of all, did it work
or it did not work? Oh?
Speaker 8 (14:55):
It worked enough for a first date?
Speaker 1 (14:56):
Okay? What happened?
Speaker 8 (14:59):
I was don thing in the middle of a bar
and someone randomly comes up to me shows me his phone.
I don't know if you know the game Trivia Crack.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
It's just a game that asked questions and he's like, hey, you.
Speaker 8 (15:10):
Look smart, can you answer this question for me? So
we end up playing Trivia Crack in the middle of
the bar. It turns out he ends up getting my
number and then went on a first date and he
ended up telling me. He's like, just to let you
know I seen you, and like, I had no other
way of thinking about talking to you. So I downloaded
the app and I went up to you and we
ended up playing.
Speaker 1 (15:28):
That's cute, okay, but only one day.
Speaker 8 (15:33):
It didn't get I mean, it didn't get any farther,
but it caught my attention, and I thought, I thought
the confidence was it was cute.
Speaker 2 (15:40):
Okay, fair enough, all right, thank you, Jessiny.
Speaker 1 (15:43):
Have a good day.
Speaker 8 (15:43):
You're welcome you too.
Speaker 1 (15:45):
I think we also need to get past the thing
where we're we're I mentioned I alluded to this earlier
mentioned it. But like we're proud of rejecting people too,
like or more, we're proud of dating fails. Yeah. Like again,
if a guy is gross or predatory or danger or
a cheater or stealing from you, then let's expose those people,
(16:05):
right like we always should have. But like the thing
where we go on a date and we both took
risk in going on the date and the date didn't
go the way we wanted it to. Like, that's how
that's dating. And I think it's even more risky when
you're on dating apps because because again the days of
the only option that we had was to talk to
each other and then gauge the vibe and the chemistry
(16:27):
before we went out. That's over. So now the first
time I'm getting any vibe from you whatsoever really in
person is when I first meet you, and maybe it
goes well and maybe it doesn't. But again, I mean,
it's not just in this era where you go on
a date with someone and they may not call you
for a second date. Yeah, you know what I mean, Like,
this is nothing new. The only thing that's different now
is that you can go blast those people publicly and
(16:50):
get mad at them. But again, it's since the dawn
of time, like men have been rejected. Women have not
gotten second dates. Men have not gotten gotten second dates.
Like it is what it is, right, So so short
of you being a terrible person who's actually like a like,
because what happens then is like maybe you're maybe that
person wasn't for you, but they're for the next person.
(17:10):
But now the next person's I'm interested because they heard
about some perspective from an anonymous other, you know what
I mean. It's like, yeah, I think technology all around
is screwing this up. The dating apps, the message boards,
all the rest of the stuff, because it's like, look,
maybe maybe you. Maybe I could meet two people at
the same time on the same day and you're not
for me, but the other one is. And it is
what it is, and the same goes for you. Like
when I go on dates with people from dating apps,
(17:31):
I assume they're talking to five other people. That's the game,
and so that if I don't get a second date,
I can be disappointed, but like or if they goes
to me, I can be disappointed.
Speaker 7 (17:40):
But I think it kind of comes with the territory,
right I think so too. Yeah, anyway, mag go out
with you. You got a thousand dollars, Okay, So that's
that's it, right, I got a thousand.
Speaker 2 (17:52):
Dollars the biggest stories of the day, all right.
Speaker 1 (17:55):
So airports are resuming normal schedules. However, go while for
it to ramp up, and you're not going to be
able to have any recourse as far as the financial
benefits the government. You know, guarantees been flights, you are laid,
so they rescinded all of the compensation. Airports across the
(18:15):
US would be a little bit less stressful now, hopefully,
now that the FAA has edited its Emergency Flight for
Reduction order, that they're calling them. A reduction in flights
of dozens of major airports began a week ago to
help address the staffing issues among air traffic controllers during
the government shutdown. This led to thousands of flights being
delayed and canceled just as a busy Thanksgiving travel period approaches.
But things have been improving and the reductions have been lifted,
(18:39):
and I guess they're adding more and more flights. But
they did say the government said that the rules that
compensate travelers for airline delays are no longer in place,
at least not right now. That means that passengers who
deal with long flight delays have no way to push
back against the airlines. I guess that's because the government
told them they had to do this. So then if
your flights are messed up, well, it's the government's fault.
So then the airlines shouldn't have to be penalized because
(19:00):
the purpose of you getting paid was the airline screwed
something up, so they got to pay you, and not
just keep you on the plane and give you water
for eight hours. Yikes, it turns out you can't do that.
The Cambridge Dictionary has named its word of the year. Parasocial. Okay,
parasocial is the word you used to describe a connection
that people feel with someone that they don't know, or
(19:22):
even an artificial intelligence they're saying. The term was coined
in nineteen fifty six by two sociologists who wanted to
describe how television viewers formed parasocial relationship with TV personalities.
The Dictionary said that this is going to be the
word of the year.
Speaker 2 (19:38):
I guess.
Speaker 1 (19:40):
I guess you could argue there are people out there
that haven't met us that have parasocial relationship with us. Right,
They've never actually met us, and we've never actually met them,
but we feel that we have relationships with them. Or
that you listen every morning because of whatever, or you
listen every morning to hate on us. Either way, it's parasocial.
The phenomena continues today as social media users formed parasocial
relationship for celebrities, influencers, and online personalities with whom they
(20:03):
have no personal connection. A key example cited by the
Cambridge Dictionary is singer Taylor Swift, who announced her engagement
to Travis Kelcey this year, with many evans expressing heartfelt
feelings towards a couple that most people will never and
have never met, which I think that's a great example
because you know, the whole world was captivated by this
(20:24):
relationship and by his courtship and by are they together
are they not? And then him chasing her around the
world on the Aras tour, and then her going to games,
and then them getting engaged, and ninety nine point nine
percent of people have never met either one of them,
but yet they're cheering them on because it's his nice
love story, right. Yes, so that's a perfect example.
Speaker 2 (20:43):
Parasocial of the year though, like who voted?
Speaker 1 (20:46):
What was the other one I gave you as a
ward of the year? Six seven? I mean so I
think that's a that's a better word than the rest. Okay,
we'll take it. But everything so AI now, like I
feel like in the last six months it's AI. And
it's been like this for a while, but it's lately
it's just a AI. AI. Everything's AI. Yes, so the
word probably had to incorporate get them, Yeah, yeah, your therapist,
(21:09):
your business partner.
Speaker 2 (21:11):
You guys.
Speaker 6 (21:11):
If you're not on the AI BO, if you're not
on the train, you will be left behind. So you
need to really immerse yourself I'd enjoy it. It'll be
left out.
Speaker 1 (21:20):
I told you, I'm on it. I have the fifteen
dollars a month subscription. I just need to find someone
who's much more tech savvy than I am to teach
me what I'm supposed to be doing with it.
Speaker 2 (21:29):
It's not hard, you guys. He is creative if you
want to be you know all the crazy things you
can do.
Speaker 1 (21:34):
Your entire life isn't automated, so you don't pretend like
you're the A.
Speaker 2 (21:37):
My life is very automated.
Speaker 1 (21:39):
You know yesterday, but you're still showing forty five minutes
late to everything.
Speaker 6 (21:43):
Not anymore because of AI. I literally say, hey, how
long to take me to get ready?
Speaker 2 (21:47):
I'm just getting.
Speaker 1 (21:50):
With your with your rollers and your baby in your hands,
your roller? I need some roller right right?
Speaker 2 (21:55):
Brillion blowout?
Speaker 1 (21:56):
You're Brazilian blowout? Down? May I you out?
Speaker 8 (22:02):
May I know you?
Speaker 1 (22:04):
What was the line? Again? I don't know media or
should I get ay Ey to do it for me? No,
I'm with you. I'm completely with you that that AI
is it and we either embrace it or I get it.
But I'm what I'm telling you is it. There are
layers of this that I don't even understand. I just
need someone to tell me what I should be doing
with it. No one to really tell you what to do.
(22:26):
It's really based on your life. For example, can I
say what it yesterday? And this might work for you too,
but I don't know how much? Put you out in
the fridge.
Speaker 6 (22:31):
You can take a picture of like what you have,
if you have like leftover this or that or whatever
ingredients and say, hey, what can I make with this
a picture?
Speaker 1 (22:39):
I would love to know what I can make with
French mustards, going to say you champagne and champagne. I
would love to know, probably a vinaigrette of something in
the store right you're nearest jewel Osco. But you guys
know what I'm saying. Like, like Pauleene over here is
an AI master. Maybe she's the one I have to hire.
I like, I don't know. I don't know what I'm
(23:00):
supposed to be doing. Like I know that it can
help me with you know, writing things. I know it
can help me with you know, captions and posts, and
I know that it can I know it can do
all these things. But like I need someone to look
at my life and go, oh, it can be responding
to this, and it can be doing that, and you
can program it to do this and it'll tell you
how to do that. Because it's not as simple as
you don't get the best results of you if you're
(23:20):
just a novice. You get better results if you know
what you're doing. I don't know what I'm doing. Whatch
really depends on on the day, Like what do you
want to do? You want to write that children's book
you've talked about?
Speaker 6 (23:29):
Do you want to I don't know, pitch ideas to
You have a TV show that we get to watch
every every night, right, so like do you have topics
for the show?
Speaker 8 (23:36):
Can you?
Speaker 2 (23:36):
I don't know. It's different things different days.
Speaker 1 (23:38):
I will say that I haven't been that impressed. That's
that's what I mean though, Like that, like the base level,
Like if I just go to it and say tell
me what we should talk about on the radio, it
gives me terrible ideas because.
Speaker 2 (23:50):
You're on top culture.
Speaker 1 (23:51):
Okay, But Pauline Booming, I know what I'm doing.
Speaker 2 (23:56):
You have to talk to her.
Speaker 6 (23:57):
You've seen you're treating her kind of like a side chick,
Like you gotta.
Speaker 2 (24:01):
Be good to her. You gotta tell her the time
fread earth like a side chick. What are we gonna
do when you have nowhere to stand? Because I am
ruined the plant? Well, there's a lot of things ruining
the planet unfortunately, but yes, you're true, let's ruin it more.
Speaker 1 (24:12):
I don't know.
Speaker 5 (24:12):
Well, no, I don't.
Speaker 6 (24:13):
I disagree with you actually about that, because if it's good,
it's not going anywhere. That's the sad part. It's not
going anywhere. But if you actually are behind it, you
can make the changes of like, Okay, we don't want
to pump so much water. What can we do to
like preserve the earth and not use all this water
to pump you know, Fred's questions out today, like you
get what I'm saying. It's not going and.
Speaker 1 (24:28):
Sad questions that are giving me bad answers. So why
is so much water getting pumped up? I meet you.
Speaker 2 (24:34):
Specific? No, I mean yeah, I want them to be
a different way. And will there every be a different way?
I don't know.
Speaker 6 (24:39):
I hope so, because that is really sad and I
don't like that it's using all of our water to
pump out questions. But okay, you have to be specific,
for I'm very passionate about this. He has to be
very specific.
Speaker 1 (24:48):
And I'm saying is I didn't know that, So I
need someone.
Speaker 2 (24:51):
To teach me that, to be specific about yourself.
Speaker 1 (24:54):
I don't think it's that simple, Paulina. I think I
think that there are probably people out there who have
degrees in this they do who could, And that's why
are you arguing? That's who I want to talk to you.
I want someone to follow me around and say here,
do this, and do that, and ask it this way,
and teach it this and do this and then this,
and then it's going to make your life easier in
(25:14):
this way, because I don't know how. I hear you.
Speaker 2 (25:17):
May I help you.
Speaker 3 (25:18):
May I meet you to help you. Okay, let's ask
her a question right now? Should we like, what should
we do for the entertainer reporter? Let's ask her, Oh, no,
I've done.
Speaker 1 (25:27):
I trust her. I've tried to make I've tried that.
Speaker 9 (25:29):
And that's the problem and it should I'm trying to
ask them what we do on this show, like I
do what I do. Kaitlin gonna do what she do,
don't ask about entertainment report. I'm all right, yeah, and
I'm not gonna play with her.
Speaker 1 (25:41):
See. Okay, So I got two separate sides of the
argument here keep me wants Ai to die? And is
an expert.
Speaker 2 (25:50):
Here how to please all your women when it comes
to these women in this room, because we're on opposite ends.
Speaker 1 (25:57):
The way that I see it is, I can I
am a I can cook. I can cook basic food
right like you. If you give me some ingredients, I
can make you basic food. I can make you eggs
and grilled cheese, and I can make you basic stuff
and it tastes fine. But if I wanted to get
to a culinary, like, you know, some sort of gourmet level,
then I would need someone to teach me that, like
(26:17):
I would need someone to say, here's how you can
make it better. That's what I'm saying, is I need
you know what I just it would be helpful to me.
Speaker 2 (26:24):
Where's the manual?
Speaker 1 (26:26):
That's what I mean. There are probably My point is
there are probably ways in which things can be even
easier for me, and I don't and I don't know
how to do it. So that's all I'm saying. And
so then you're offering to help me, which is exactly
how we got on this eight minute rant. Was I
need someone to help me. So you could have just
said I'll help you, and then we didn't have to
have this because you're admitting and you're acknowledging. I don't
know what I'm doing.
Speaker 2 (26:44):
Listen, it's not AI's top. She's a tough one. But
we got it.
Speaker 1 (26:48):
We got this.
Speaker 2 (26:48):
You and I are getting together after work.
Speaker 1 (26:50):
I can't wait. Yeah. A routine flight turned into a
mid air emergency for a Jet Blue flight from Boston
to Tampa, Kiki. And meantime, she just burned my computer down.
She burned it. She just unplugged it and handed me
a pencil.
Speaker 9 (27:01):
Ai works for you. You don't work for a period. Okay,
just keep that in mind, Paul. You are in control.
Speaker 6 (27:08):
You're in control. You have a seed it information. I'm Fred,
I'm this person, this is my personality.
Speaker 2 (27:13):
This is how I talk. You have to be specific.
I'm gonna go grab a coffee right.
Speaker 1 (27:18):
This is the information I was asking for that you
were yelling at me for not knowing. So back to
my story. A routine flight turned into a mid air
emergency for a Jet Blue flight from Boston to tamp
but was forced to make a return to Boston's Logan
Airport because a passenger in first class had been vaping
marijuana in the lavatory. The crew then inhaled the smoke
got secondhand high. Apparently, the plane was fully fueled and
(27:41):
thus overweight for a safe landing, so the pilot had
to issue an emergency call to air traffic Control. During communications,
they asked that the cockpit was secure. The guy said
that the disturbance involved the lavatory. Thankfully, the flight landed
safely back in Boston. With that injuries or further incidents,
the passenger responsible faces federal charges a lifetime airline van
and the airline may pursue civil charges. This could actually
(28:03):
be pretty bad if that, if the vapes then go
into the cockpit and those guys breathe it in. How
addicted are you that you can't take a flight? I know,
I know, but I mean if the pilots get high,
that's not ideal. No, you know you want to get high, fine,
but like pilot's so right, you know when it comes
down for landing. I know, guys, if they're you know,
(28:24):
ordering taco bell on door to ash and trying to
figure out, you know, where to get a pizza, I
need you focused a new s from the this is great.
The American Christmas Tree Association, which is also known in
the industry as the ACTA, everybody knows that they're showing.
The artificial Christmas tree market is the clear favorite for
US homes. Eighty three percent of households that plan to
(28:45):
display a tree this year have chosen a fake one.
Despite some concerns about tariffs and important goods, demand for
an artificial tree remains strong and steady. Speaking of the holidays,
apparently more people are planning to rentothing for everything from
holiday parties to keeping warm coach to ugly sweaters.
Speaker 2 (29:06):
I do it every month.
Speaker 1 (29:07):
Ugly sweater. That is a good idea because because the
last ones is the last time. First of all, you know,
I'm not a theme party guy. No, and you want
me to come to ugly sweater party, I probably just
wear a normal sweater, so people will just think it's ugly,
but like you buy it right, they're usually very animated, enunciated.
(29:30):
You know it's got a slogan on it, or a
thing you really can't like recycle that, Like, you can't
wear the same ugly sweater to every year, so then
you just sort of sits there or you donate it
or you throw it away or whatever. So I mean, imagine,
just rent the ugly sweater and then send it back
and then we're not wasting ugly, we're not wasting stuff
because like an ugly sweater party, like you're gonna wear
that once a year maybe, So apparently people are doing this.
(29:53):
I know a lot of people do it. Like my
friends at the TV station, they most of their clothes
rent rent. I do it every month because it's like
I got to wear a new outfit on TV every night.
So because because some viewer will write them and say
I saw that dress on January third, that's crazy. So
they rent clothes, which makes a lot of sense because
they're wearing designer stuff every night. But then they can
just send it back and get new stuff. That's smart.
(30:15):
But I never thought about it as it pertained like
holiday parties and like big jackets, Like if you're traveling
somewhere you need a big coat. Maybe you don't live
somewhere where you need a big coat, so you don't
get to spend the money. So people are renting clothing
you every month.
Speaker 2 (30:27):
Yeah, every month.
Speaker 1 (30:28):
I love it.
Speaker 2 (30:29):
It's my favorite thing. I will not say which company
I use.
Speaker 3 (30:32):
It's not rent the rack because I've tried to do
things with them and they will not do anything with me.
Speaker 2 (30:36):
But I love it. It's aside from this year, which
I'm wearing j C. Penny too. Usually I do it
for things like Jingle Bosh to where it's.
Speaker 1 (30:42):
Like so even though it's I think it's women's stuff.
Speaker 3 (30:45):
The women's in juniors. Well yeah and girls, yeah, yeah,
what are you wearing? Are you wearing the hotpants that
I'm gonna wear? Are you gonna wear it a long?
Speaker 1 (30:51):
I was going to Since you're wearing the hotpants, I'll
wear the long sequencedpell.
Speaker 2 (30:56):
Bottoms okay, and you want the crop like semi obviously.
Speaker 1 (31:00):
I lost some weights, so yeah, that's that's the move.
Speaker 3 (31:03):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (31:04):
No, it makes a lot of sense though, I just
never thought about it as it pertains to holiday parties
exclusively or holiday stuff that you're never gonna wear again.
And finally today guys, and I think I'm gonna send
Paulina to this because she's so impassioned. Well similar some
parents are turning to digital detox camp for children and teams.
(31:26):
It might be a dream for me. Actual there's like
a lake there and a tree. Yeah, parents interviewed say
that they've tried time limits, parental control apps, and endless negotiations,
but nothing stick. So now they're paying thousands to send
kids to unplugged camps in the woods, structured reset programs,
(31:49):
and tech free retreats designed to break the cycle of
scrolling and gaming. These camps promise it when parents feel
they can't deliver at home. No phones, no apps, no TikTok,
just real world activity counselors who specialize in tech dependence
and days built around face to face interaction. We have
to send people to camps now to get you to
do stuff that's not on a screen. Wow. And apparently
(32:13):
programs now have wait lists stretching months and months. I
can't get in.
Speaker 3 (32:18):
My friends who have taken away their kids devices for
extended periods of time say that they have different children
when they don't have their devices.
Speaker 2 (32:24):
They don't throw.
Speaker 3 (32:25):
Tantrums, they don't argue as much like they're present, they
want to hang out and talk to the family. It
just stinks because then the friends at school still have
their technology, and that's like the hard part.
Speaker 9 (32:35):
But remember that time I was on a cruise ship
and I didn't have Wi Fi and almost jumped.
Speaker 1 (32:40):
Yeah, they had to get that coast Guard helicopter to
fly you away because you were having seizures and shaking. Yes,
that was a real waste of resources. Kid, Like, I
don't think it was necessary.
Speaker 2 (32:48):
Oh no, it was like it it gets dangerous. Are
you trying to refresh that timeline and it won't go?
Oh no, telling what you make?
Speaker 1 (32:55):
What does our companies say to me? Who I respect?
But I thought it was kind of dramatic until I
thought about it, and when you first hear the statement,
it seems dramatic. But he said that some to the
effective giving kids phones is like giving kids cigarettes in
the eighties or something. It was something like that, and
I was like, oh, I don't know about that, And
then I thought about it. It's like or what or
(33:17):
maybe it's a different example, but it was something that
was like readily available to kids in different generations that
no one really thought a whole lot of No one
gives kids cigarettes. It wasn't that for yourself. I'm trying
to I also textimacy, but it was like, wow, that's
really But it's the point that he was trying to
make is that we don't realize the danger that we're
introducing into kids' lives when we give them access to
(33:37):
this tech, because it seems harmless until it's not. No,
it probably wasn't cigarettes, it wasn't explosives either, but.
Speaker 2 (33:45):
It's something that dangerous.
Speaker 1 (33:46):
Though.
Speaker 2 (33:46):
I get what he was trying to say.
Speaker 1 (33:47):
I do too, But when I first heard it, I'm like, oh, bro,
Like that's a little dramatic. And then then I said
and thought about it for a minute, I'm like, no, no, Like, actually,
I wonder if in twenty years there's going to be
a whole stuff and residual mental illness and and and
already seeing it I think socially and social skills and
stuff like that as a result of people's reliance on tech,
(34:10):
and how tech is something that is introduced to kids
at the youngest age and so it's like a dependency.
I mean, imagine, I mean it's dependency for us as adults,
and we had a life without it. Imagine if you
were born and you never had But on the flip side,
I would probably have done better in school if I
had access to YouTube and the internet in some ways,
not because I would cheat, but because half the time
I'd go home and I couldn't answer it like a
(34:31):
math question, and now I could go type and YouTube.
Someone explained it to me. You know, that's just one example.
So there's a plus, there's pluses and minuses. No, man,
it's Mickey Mouse's birthday.
Speaker 8 (34:41):
Guys.
Speaker 1 (34:41):
We've covered a lot of topics. We've covered how to
act with women and men in the world. We've learned
that Paulina has a PhD in AI, and we've we've
addressed very serious issues like tech and the with children.
So don't say there's no substance on this show. Yes
to Entertainment Report, he's on the Bread.
Speaker 2 (35:02):
Show a couple quick stories.
Speaker 3 (35:04):
Share will grace the SNL stage as musical guests for
the first time in thirty eight years, alongside Miss Ariana
Grande as host, who is actually very funny. If you
didn't know, Cher appeared on the show as a musical
guest in nineteen eighty seven performing We All Sleep Alone
and I Found Someone. She also made a brief cameo
in nineteen ninety two during Weekend Update. Arian Share will
(35:26):
be the host and musical guests for the show's Christmas episode,
and they announce that on Instagram and Shack will serve
as a judge along with other NBA greats like Duyight Howard,
Nate Robinson, Chris Weber, and Moore on Dunkman, a six
episode reality competition show set to air across Warner Brothers
channels all they have like HBO, Max TNT that's coming
(35:49):
in December. Forty amateur dunkers from around the globe will
compete for a two hundred thousand dollars prize, which.
Speaker 5 (35:56):
They get a little more money.
Speaker 2 (35:57):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (35:59):
Adam Lefko, a sports commentarator and podcaster, has worked with
Shaq in the past, and he will host the show.
They keep calling it a program which makes me feel
like I'm a nana A program A program.
Speaker 4 (36:09):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (36:09):
Starts Thursday, December fourth, at seven depending or eight, depending
on where you are.
Speaker 1 (36:14):
I think they should make more than two hundred grand,
don't you think so?
Speaker 3 (36:17):
Like these days, like for a reality show prize? Yeah,
I think so, because I mean, after Texas, I don't
even know what that would be fourteen dollars. I also
can't dunk, so you can't. I know, I looked like
you not being able to dunk. You know, I used
to be able to dunk. I you know, ball is life,
but I haven't tried.
Speaker 1 (36:33):
In a while. I can't. I we one time went
and played one on Want and she posterized me. She
just dunked right on my face. I don't know what
that means, but I did. When somebody dunks over somebody
in like that moment when they were like when the
one guy is like, because the other guy just dunked
on him and one shot, it becomes a poster. They
call that posterizing.
Speaker 2 (36:50):
Yeah, me in the air like Jordan, yeah, like and
then me like, yeah.
Speaker 1 (36:53):
My face is all messed up because you just pushed
me out of the way and then you dunk it
over me.
Speaker 10 (36:57):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (36:58):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (36:58):
We should put that on a shirt. We should that photocaun.
Speaker 1 (37:02):
I have a shirt of Jordan dunking over Lebron like
in a very aggressive way. But that never happened because
they never played together. But I still wear passion. I
think it is I think I still wear it sometimes
like it never happened, but it's Lebron like and Jordan,
you know fight.
Speaker 2 (37:19):
Oh that would have been a time. By the way,
if you want to catch up on our show, just
take the French.
Speaker 11 (37:23):
Onwonder Man on the Free iHeart radio app that reminds
me of the rant I sometimes go on when I
used to watch that show, and sometimes it still pops
up on like I don't know own or something, but
that that show Undercover Boss.
Speaker 1 (37:35):
It always used to upset me. And granted, like they're
very generous, but like I always felt like we hear
for the whole episode how rich these people are, Like
the Undercover Boss, you know, the jets in the big
house and the fancy cars, and all we hear for
forty five minutes is how rich these guys are and
how hard it is for them to live in these
crappy hotels and like put on the fake beard and
(37:57):
go work in their own business. And at the end,
it's like, we're gonna give you ten thousand dollars for
your kids scholarship. It's like you're a billionaire, ry for college.
And then and then a couple of them did a
couple of because clearly the show had like a there
was like a formula for how much you because it
was pretty similar. It was like fifty grand for everybody
kind of thing. But like and then occasionally I think
on a couple episodes, a guy would be like and
(38:18):
I'm buying you a house, you know, and you're like yes,
like that's life changing and you can afford it. But
I used to get mad at the end of the
thing because it didn't seem like enough money to me.
Be like, wow, you have a you know, you have
these challenges in this and you're such an amazing person.
Everyone loves you. Here's here's a gift card.
Speaker 2 (38:37):
And you're like, no, in the restaurant that you want.
Speaker 1 (38:41):
This is free advertising, dude, like by them, like, you know, here,
we're going to give you five grand towards a car
that costs fifty give just buy the car. It's such
good press. But I used to sit there and get
so mad. Then every now and again some guy would
be just be wildly generous. I was like, okay, or girl,
I think that lady used to run Cinnabun gave somebody
a cinabun, which I'm sure that wasn't that expensive to Cinnabun,
(39:04):
you know, like to give them. Yeah, but like here's
a muffin or whatever, like you know, here's a here's
a role. No, no, no. I think it was like
an assistant manager who was like doing great in the
location she worked in. So she gave him or her
I can't remember their own location, and I'm sure it
wasn't as wildly extravagant as it seems for Cinabun to
(39:25):
give someone a Cinabun, But it was still very cool
because it's like it would be like if somebody had
come along. I know, they offered you this giky, but
like here, here's your own KFC free and clear, have
ad it, Like that would be rad I don't know,
I'll take the gift card. In more press show next

Stuff You Should Know
If you've ever wanted to know about champagne, satanism, the Stonewall Uprising, chaos theory, LSD, El Nino, true crime and Rosa Parks, then look no further. Josh and Chuck have you covered.
Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
