Speaker 1 (01:44):
On the sheet today Paulina woman wonders if boyfriend that's it,
that's all.
Speaker 4 (01:51):
It says, that's it says.
Speaker 1 (01:55):
I mean, like, boy this it's like mad lips, Like
let's you said, let's just make it up ourselves, let's
just add in.
Speaker 2 (02:00):
Well, am I right?
Speaker 1 (02:02):
Woman wonders if boyfriend I.
Speaker 4 (02:04):
Can finish the story makes imaginary plans instead of hanging
out with her it's a study study dot.
Speaker 5 (02:09):
Org or something like that or something like it or
something like that, someplace study something.
Speaker 1 (02:13):
Well, if you could send me the rest of it,
maybe we'll get to it. That would be something I
will get on that. Woman wonders if boyfriend.
Speaker 2 (02:19):
That's a really good thought. I'm constantly wondering if boyfriend
also on.
Speaker 1 (02:22):
The sheet today from Paulina, because you know, we have
a we have a document that we all share ideas
on Paulina. I'm planning my honeymoon and I obviously wanted
to be kid free, but I want gg to be
blessed by the Pope. So what do I do?
Speaker 2 (02:35):
Oh, just do like you always do, fly back to
Chicago in between and drop her off.
Speaker 1 (02:39):
I thought, it's just like that's a normal for you.
That's just a normal activity that's going to occur on
on your honeymoon. So I take it you're trying to
go to the Vatican for your honeymoon.
Speaker 2 (02:48):
Oh, I'm absolutely going to the Vatican.
Speaker 1 (02:51):
Okay, Well that's not part of what you wrote, So
I don't know why how I would know that, and
so yeah, but then meeting the Pope is just that's
just it's just the standard part of the visit, like
that's just happening.
Speaker 2 (03:02):
So yeah, I can.
Speaker 4 (03:03):
I guess you can like schedule it out or something,
or like make a reservation of some.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
Sort nowt like a restaurant, Jason reach out. Honestly, I
thought about it.
Speaker 1 (03:11):
Yeah, I mean, Jason in the past ten days has
gotten kailin restaurant reservation, so I'm sure he could get
popely out of to hook it up.
Speaker 2 (03:18):
Yeah, only his friends of ownership.
Speaker 1 (03:20):
I don't think it's that easy, is it. You could
just meet the Pope. I think it's a little more
than that.
Speaker 4 (03:24):
No, No, no, it's like a one on one by any means,
I mean, unless they would like to offer that opero.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
So you're just like you're sort of like in the
square or whatever, and then he's on the balcony.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
No, he drives into little popemobile.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
I want to he like get some Italian water and
just spray it on like a hose and just go
like all right, you all are blessed.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
Open up. I see.
Speaker 1 (03:40):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (03:40):
Right, So if you bring your baby, like somebody from
security team will grab the baby, bring the baby to
the popemobile, You'll do a little blood drive off.
Speaker 1 (03:48):
You'll have. I don't think they do that with every
single baby that attends.
Speaker 4 (03:52):
Most of them do if you're close enough, if you're
all in the back, I mean, they're not going to
see you.
Speaker 1 (03:55):
But if I've seen him do it. But I don't
think it's like every maybe they're all day would never move.
Speaker 4 (04:02):
Shoots your shot, and then there's another thing you can do.
And I looked into this for newlyweds. I am not
a newlywed, but I could make myself a newlywed of
great idea.
Speaker 2 (04:10):
Well, I haven't been married in a church yet. Technically
I got married by Elvis Presley.
Speaker 1 (04:15):
It was a religious experience as far as I.
Speaker 4 (04:17):
I did a Vegas wedding. So I could go to
my local church. And you've been to my church, read,
I can go call what is it?
Speaker 1 (04:23):
I attend confessional on a regular basis at your church.
I go to your church.
Speaker 4 (04:27):
I was a specific church where my daughter was baptized
by the deacon. Remember the old deacon Ron, I certainly do.
Ron was singing to us across the church that day
and sing along with him. So I can go there
and get married and then call myself a newlywed.
Speaker 2 (04:41):
I have an all planned out, and I think he
does a hustle.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
To meet the Pope. I think that's a great idea.
That's got a hustle to meet a religious figure.
Speaker 4 (04:50):
And I'm gonna wear like a white Sox like T
shirt or something, give him a little wink to be like, hey,
I'm from Chicago to like south Side.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
Okay, so you do realize that like millions of people. Yeah, right,
So then so you would it would be like a
Taylor Swift album release at Target. You would have to
camp out in the Vatican Square like yes, like days
in advance to get the spot. So so there goes
most of your trip just waiting. Yes, and then I
don't know what you do with the baby the whole time.
(05:17):
And then I guess, like maybe when the popemobile pulls
out of it it's the legarage. Then you go, okay,
bring me Gigi. And then and then somehow it just
seems like a lot logistics. Yeah, I know, but it'll
be worth it.
Speaker 4 (05:28):
This this is going to be my life of a
showgirl moment, Like this is my I'm lining up for
the Pope.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
But you know, this show is based in Chicago, and
I feel like somebody and so the Pope is was
once based in Chicago as a as a resident. He
was from Chicago, right, I feel like somebody knows the guy,
Like someone who listens to this show has met the
Pope in some way or went to the school where
his brother was the principal. I mean, the someone knows
this guy. I contend that the Pope was once in
(05:55):
a newber and he heard the show. I believe the
Pope has heard this radio show. There's no way, there's
no way that he couldn't have. You know, out of
one out of ten ubers has the Freend Show on.
That's a statistic that I stand by. I hope it's
more than that, but let's just go with one out
of ten. That is until the person the passenger complaints
and makes him turn it off. But until then, like
I feel like maybe he was on his way to
You'll go do something for the popes do or cardinals
(06:18):
do before that, and he was like, I'm headed to Midway,
going to ol'd hair and he calls an uber like
everybody else, Yeah, now of course that would never happen.
Now he's got you know, Pope bobile. Yeah, but it
gets in the uber and there we are at some
point in the last fifteen years. I think I think
it's happened, so he probably knows us.
Speaker 4 (06:32):
I'm taking it one up further and saying he might
have had a preset.
Speaker 1 (06:35):
He might have had a preset. He might still if
he wants to remind himself of his home on the
iHeartRadio app, which Caitlin's free and easy to use. It
never what I almost said, radio never tasted so good?
What is our slogan? Radio never sounds whatever it is sound? Yeah,
it did. So it's very possible that that maybe maybe
Jason could email somebody and he'd be like, oh, Paulina,
(06:57):
my friend, my friend, Paulina, Yeah, your own child.
Speaker 4 (07:01):
Yes, if I do meet the Pope, like, would you
guys be so jealous? Yes, that's like my that's my
north star right now is to.
Speaker 2 (07:08):
Meet the Pope. I would be really just happy for you.
Speaker 3 (07:11):
And I believe that you will do it, Like I
believe that you talk all this crazy mess and I
believe you're manifesting, and.
Speaker 2 (07:16):
I believe that we will see you at the Pope.
Speaker 4 (07:18):
I quite literally, Yeah, I can talk a big game.
Speaker 1 (07:21):
But he has the thing. If you drop the show's
name to meet the Pope. That's a one shot deal.
You have to bring me with you if you're gonna
use if you're gonna use my name to meet the Pope,
you can't be the only one to meet.
Speaker 5 (07:34):
We all get to meet the Pope. Then would you
like to be happy? Then if they've they I.
Speaker 1 (07:37):
Don't know what to tell you, but if you if
you're going to backdoor this using because then the problem
is a year later when I'm like, oh cool, now
I want to meet him, they're gonna make no sorry,
we already did that.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
Oh no, no, no.
Speaker 1 (07:48):
We don't to hook you up. So what I'm saying
is I'm gonna have to go because I want to
meet the guy too.
Speaker 2 (07:52):
Actually, the whole show should go. We all need a blessing.
Speaker 1 (07:55):
See there you go.
Speaker 2 (07:56):
Yeah, we should meet the Pope. It's a Chicago win
like that's once in a lifetime kind of thing. We
get to live it.
Speaker 3 (08:00):
Okay, So he's going on Kiki's bachelorette and your honeymoon.
Speaker 2 (08:03):
Correct, Okay, perfect? Yeah, got it.
Speaker 1 (08:05):
Well, I mean if the Pope is involved that I'm
going and we're not gonna we won't stay, we'll stay
in a joining rooms. It won't be the same room. Okay,
so you'll be able to close the door maybe like
uh you know, like on that waiting by the phone
where there's a curtain in between the bets, you know,
like that's what we'll do. It'll be fine. I don't
want to be involved in that aspect of it. I
just want to meet the Pope.
Speaker 2 (08:23):
Yeah, no, same.
Speaker 4 (08:25):
Fred's show is on Fred's Sound Biggest Stories of the Day.
Speaker 1 (08:29):
I didn't you didn't need to text us that eight five, five,
five nine one one three five. Never have I ever
been in an uber that had the Fred Show one?
Now that is not nice. Yeah, I've been.
Speaker 5 (08:40):
Show.
Speaker 1 (08:41):
Literally I've left you early. And then it's like, oh,
that's that's us. Yeah that's cool, and then I give
the guy a much bigger tip. You're still on and
everyone everyone in a uber should have us on just
in case one of us gets in, because it's a
show policy that we're required to tip more if you
acknowledge our show in any way. So just lie, like
even if you're like I don't know if if you're
(09:03):
the server at the restaurant or something, just like, oh
I love your show, bigger tip instantly, you just double
your money right there. This is blasphemy. I believe many
ubers have us on tens of them. Anyway. This person
then followed up, but well, that's why I listened to
you on iHeart so good. You can just stick your
little little thing in your ear and then you got him.
It's all good. Biggest stories of the day. I do
(09:24):
have Jason's NFL picks. Jason is in Miami for the
FISL iHeartRadio FISA Latina, which is I mean every year
he has to They have to have him there. There's
no way that they can even perform without Jason because
when I think FISA Latina, I think Jason Brown obviously
and a sixteen hundred day streak on Juelipa whatever it's called.
(09:46):
But I have his picks here, and I don't have
the games. He just he just told me who's gonna
win now. He said the charges, the charges are gonna win,
and I think they did win last night. So there's
one charge. He is one, so he's one to know.
Maybe we should just stop there. Dolphins, Bears, Bengals, Panthers,
(10:08):
four Niners, Browns, Giants, Saints, Titans, as he would say it,
Cowboy Nation, Steelers, and Chiefs will all be winners this weekend,
and the par sleigh old financed Jalen Hurts will score
a run in Jackson Smith. I'm nahbah, I'm sure I
(10:30):
said that in the last name wrong. I'm so sorry.
He floods my basement and is going to catch five
times and jam Jamar Gibbs rather has lush his hair
and will score one time. Jam Did I say Jimmy
the second time? I don't know anyway. Anyway, he is
lush his hair, which is more important than all that.
I'm just a little thrown off by well that I
(10:53):
just said that someone will make my will flood my basement.
So there you go. Those are your picks. You can
go back on the iHeart and listen and you can
even bet. The fact that no one has vunsored this
segment is unbelievable to me. The fact that no betting
site has come on board on Jason's Brown NFL picks,
I mean absolutely classic and epic and always correct. So
I don't know what's going on with them. Speaking of
(11:16):
professional sports, I'm sad that Jason's out here to report
on this. Maybe that's what he's really doing. Maybe he's
not in Miami for a Fiesta Latina. Maybe he's hanging
out with the FBI and he's trying to get all
the inside scoop on this. But more than thirty people
I've now been indicted after a lengthy federal investigation into
illegal sports betting operations. Key names in the indictments include
Chauncey Billups, who's the head coach of the Portland Trail Blazers,
(11:38):
Terry Rozier, who's a guard for the Miami Heat, and
Damon Jones, who is a former NBA player and assistant coach.
The allegations insiders passed non public information like injuries, lineup changes,
and more to betters, and one scheme involved the use
of tech to cheat at underground poker games backed by
organized crime families. So this is wild. You got the mafia,
(12:02):
you got NBA professional sports, former athletes, all this stuff.
Lebron James has been indirectly linked to the NBA's growing
gambling scandal after the investigators accused his close friend and
former teammate of leaking his injury details to Better's. Prosecutors
say that this guy told a gamber to bet against
the Lakers in February of twenty twenty three because Shams
(12:22):
wouldn't play and he didn't. He allegedly shared more injury
tips for money, but isn't accused of fixing games. Lebron
James himself isn't under investigation and he's not suspected of
any wrongdoing either. And then the tech they're talking about
is that there were four major New York crime families
who teamed up in a high stakes illegal poker ring
using AI or advanced tech. Rather, the tech included so
(12:46):
called x ray poker tables that were modified with LEDs
or cameras to read the face down cards through the felt,
plus card trades with hidden cameras, decoy phones with card
reading ability, and decks with infrared or barcode marking visible
only with special glasses or contact lenses. These devices are
apparently being sold online for hundreds to thousands of dollars.
(13:06):
The games then targeted wealthy gamblers, including former or current
NBA stars. Losses to victims of it I guess in
some cases seven million dollars or more. One victim alone
reportedly lost one point eight million dollars in a single game.
So I don't know what all this is? What all
this means what you know.
Speaker 3 (13:25):
Between this and the louver thing, Like the news stories
feel like they're like old timey.
Speaker 2 (13:31):
It doesn't feel real.
Speaker 1 (13:33):
Like a George Coloney movie, Like yeah.
Speaker 3 (13:35):
Okay, we're taking a ladder and we're stealing from like
one of the biggest museums in the world. And now
we got the mafia in illegal gambling rings.
Speaker 1 (13:43):
Yeah, well I have an update on that too, So
the excellent transition, I'll get to that tropical store. Melissa
is turning in the Caribbean Sea and will likely strengthened
to do a major hurricane by the weekend. Meteorologists warn
that Melissa poses a serious flooding threat to Jamaica among
other places in the region, as heavy rain is expected
to persist for several consecutive days. The storm's outer vans
(14:04):
are already brushing Jamaica and western Haiti, where hurricane watches
are in effect. The tropical storm warning is also in
effect for these islands, where officials are urging residents to
prepare for power outages, landslides, and dangerous seas. Alaska Airlines
has resumed operations after an information technology program forced hundreds
of flights to be grounded on Thursday, A groundstop for
(14:25):
all Alaska flights and its subsidiary, Horizon Air, was lofted
at eleven thirty pm last night. The groundstop was requested
by the airline about eight hours earlier when the IT
outage began. According to the FAA, they didn't immediately say
what caused the outage. Affected travelers said that some of
the airlines gates were crowded, that the delays piled up.
Alaska had a similar problem in April of twenty twenty four,
(14:48):
but I guess the operations have resumed. French police investigating
the theft of one hundred and two million dollars in
jewels from the Loube have found a potential break in
a case. Police told ABC News that DNA have was
found in a helmet and a glove discarded by the
thieves after the heist. So they said that one hundred
and fifty DNA samples, fingerprints and other traces have been
(15:09):
identified and that analyzing them as a top priority. She
said that the samples could provide leads within a few days,
especially if the perpetrators, suspected to be career criminals, have
criminal records. But yeah, yeah, we got mafia yes, we
got dudes pulling up, yeah, climbing in windows, ceiling crowns,
and George Coney was involved. I swear he absolutely was.
(15:30):
The Amazon Web Services out is that we talked about
on I guess it was Monday did more than just
freeze bank transfers and disrupt peloton workouts. It jolted some
high tech mattress owners out of sound. Sleep So eight
Sleep customers found themselves stuck in uncomfortable positions, bathe in
unexpected heat, or blasted by alarms after their Internet connected
(15:53):
beds malfunctioned during the AWS downtime. According to The Washington Post,
some beds locked upright oh my flash lights or simply
became too warm for comfort, some up to one hundred
and ten degrees. So eight Sleep smart beds, sold in
packages that can retail for over five thousand dollars, offer
vibrating alarms and soundscapes, customizable positions, and can adjust from
(16:16):
temperatures to fifty five to one hundred and ten degrees.
One Reddit user claimed that their bed set itself to
one hundred and ten degrees it wouldn't turn down. The
CEO of the company apologized for the root awakening and
assured customers and engineers in networking on a backup mode
designed to keep the mattress functional even if cloud services
go down again. By Monday, most of the beds were
back online, but your bed was offline.
Speaker 3 (16:38):
And this is like final destination, Like every story is
crazier than the last.
Speaker 1 (16:41):
Somebody else I saw online had like a coffee maker,
like a water purifire, something very basic that connected to
the internet. That that wouldn't work either, Like if the
internet's off, then you don't eat no water for you sorry,
Like you know, I guess you have to use the sink.
Unless your sink is connected to the internet, then you
wouldn't be able to do that either.
Speaker 2 (16:57):
Yeah, or your fridge one with a little TV. I'm assuming.
Speaker 1 (17:02):
House flying with me so mad, refrigerator with the screen
on the front of it. And then now I gotta
look at ads at my own house. I paid for that.
Speaker 2 (17:12):
I can't wait to have one.
Speaker 1 (17:13):
You want you want to ads?
Speaker 6 (17:14):
I do?
Speaker 4 (17:15):
I do? I want to feel like I'm immersed in
something when I'm in my kitchen.
Speaker 2 (17:19):
I like, no, I don't want no TV, no phone.
Speaker 4 (17:23):
Just give me my fridge, me and my fridge, Okay,
just into here's the thing.
Speaker 1 (17:27):
If you want to give me a fridge, or you
want to give me a very very cheap fridge, then
put ads on it. Fine, give me the fridge for free.
I'll put it in my house. You can put ads
on it. If I pay you for the fridge, then
a lot of money, then I don't. I shouldn't have
to look at ads. I have three things have ads
attached to them, like you know, Like look, guys, there
(17:48):
are people who complained about the ads. You want our
show or whatever. I'm sorry, but but our our advertising
partners are wonderful and they got to pay for this
because we don't make you pay for it. So there,
I'm sorry about that. But if you had to pay
for this and and then we were still putting you know,
and by the way, here's thirty minutes. But no, that
would be awful of us. It would be terrible.
Speaker 2 (18:05):
Like every streaming service I pay for.
Speaker 1 (18:07):
Well, that too. Yep. There is a restaurant and I
sort of like this idea. It's called Hush Harbor. It's
in Washington, DC, A new bar restaurant where phones are
locked up upon entry to create a screen free, present
moment atmosphere. The venue, I guess as a Hell's Kitchen,
Winning Chef and Hush Harbor references historical private gathering places
(18:31):
used by enslaved African Americans, highlighting the intention of creating
a protected space for community and conversation. Inside, guests place
their phones in locked pouches which only open when they're leaving.
Inside there are analog touches, polaroid cameras, board games, books,
and cozy Vintage decorp. The aim is to foster real
social connection, unplug time in community. Imagine if you couldn't
(18:53):
look at your phone for like an hour.
Speaker 3 (18:55):
Imagine there's a bar club in Detroit that takes phones
like the ziploc bag thing. And watching my friend try
to get a girl's number was the funniest.
Speaker 2 (19:05):
I was like, this is how it must have been, because.
Speaker 3 (19:07):
He had he was trying to remember it, and then
he was trying to get a piece of paper.
Speaker 2 (19:10):
It was hysterical.
Speaker 1 (19:11):
You have to write it down. He had a napkin.
I remember we used to do that.
Speaker 2 (19:14):
Yeah, but they still do it to this day. They
take your phone.
Speaker 1 (19:17):
I don't hate this idea.
Speaker 2 (19:19):
I mean it's fun.
Speaker 3 (19:20):
I love going there, but I know a lot of
people freak out, especially if you have kids or whatever.
Speaker 1 (19:23):
And this is for you and only Youkalin, because I
know you were a metal detectorist. Really yeah, no, I
knew Calin used to have a metal detector and she
used to like to try and find treasures.
Speaker 3 (19:36):
Hey, the metal detective community has been supporting me.
Speaker 1 (19:40):
A metal detectorist from Cheshire, which is I think in Wales,
which in the UK, may have unearthed the largest Roman
coin horde ever found in Welsh history and was so
worried about losing it he slept in his car with
the loot for three nights. The guy's name is David.
He's thirty six years old. He was left in disbelief
after you're digging up two containing what he estimates to
(20:02):
be ten to fifteen thousand coins in a remote part
of North Wales in August in a muddy field after
six and a half hours excavating the find with his
friend Ian, which sounds very I don't know Welsh, I guess,
he alerted the landowners, stashed the coins in a plastic box,
drove home, unwilling to let the trove out of his sight.
He spent three nights camped out in his car before
(20:23):
finally delivering the hordes experts at the National Museum. Apparently
they wanted if they know what it is, then he
gets a reward with the landowner. He gets money, but
he's like, no, I'm sleeping on top of this stuff
until we figure out what it is. I get my money. See,
he's about to be rich from metel detectorists. I didn't
even know that was a thing. I didn't know you
there was a term for what you do, metal detectorist. Yeah,
(20:45):
it's National Pharmacy Buyer Day today. Klin's entertainment report is
on The Freas Show. La.
Speaker 3 (20:52):
Dodgers pitcher Alex Pacia is stepping away from the team
ahead of the World Series to handle a deeply personal
family matter involving his pregnant wife, Kayla, which makes me
so worried. The Dodgers confirmed his absence but gave no details,
saying the organization, of course, fully supports him. Manager Dave
Roberts said that the team is working through roster adjustments
(21:14):
as the World Series begins. Speaking of the World Series,
Farrell will take the field ahead of Game one tonight
in Toronto, performing alongside the gospel group Voices of Fire.
Speaker 2 (21:25):
The Jonas Brothers will perform at Game two.
Speaker 3 (21:28):
Britney Spears was spotted on video swerving across the lanes
and struggling to enter her gated home after a night
out in Thousand Oaks, California. And this erratic driving, of course,
is worries some, but it comes as her ex husband
Kevin Federline released his Tell All memoir, and you know,
he's been talking about all kinds of stuff, and I'm
sure that's bringing up a lot.
Speaker 2 (21:48):
People say that she's.
Speaker 3 (21:49):
Spiraling over renewed attention while she is, you know, publicly
saying or her people are that he's gaslighting her.
Speaker 2 (21:57):
You know, I think she's internalizing a lot of it.
Speaker 3 (21:59):
As for Kevin, in book, he says they're two sons,
Sean and Jaden, have only had extremely limited contact with
Brittany in recent years. One son reportedly only saw her
for forty five minutes in five years, the other just
saw her for four visits in five years. Brittany, in response,
said the claims are very hurtful, very exhausting. She insists
that she wants a relationship with her boys, but in
(22:21):
the situation, it's very complicated, of course, and the memoir,
if you're interested. What you should not be is you
thought you knew and he came out with it to
I think, profit off of her after his child support
payment stopped coming in Both the Boys are eighteen now.

Speaker 1 (23:23):
Okay, I want to know eight five five one three
five And it was a couple of weeks ago. I
don't remember how it came up exactly, but somebody who
would wait to have intimate relations before getting married. Okay,
there this couple, and I got to assume that they're
doing that because there's a couple who waited to share
(23:45):
their first kiss at their wedding. The first time they
ever kissed.
Speaker 2 (23:50):
We're taking it through far, guys, was at their wedding.
Speaker 1 (23:52):
The married couple had never kissed before their wedding ceremony,
So I have to assume that they didn't do all
the other stuff, just not kissed.
Speaker 2 (23:58):
But that would be something pretty woman's style.
Speaker 1 (24:02):
They delayed their first kiss until they exchanged vows and
the officiants said, you may kiss the bride. Their decision
drew mixed reactions. Some people called it sweet and meaningful,
others found it stranger, unnecessary. It's heising to broader debates
about saving things, be it kissing, dancing, or otherwise for
big events, and what it says about modern romance and
social media friendly gestures. Eight five, five, five, nine, one
(24:25):
oh three five You can context the same number? Would
I mean? I know the answer in the room, but
is there was there any part of you? Okay, I mean,
is there.
Speaker 5 (24:35):
Any I don't get.
Speaker 1 (24:40):
I'm having a major malfunction, right now, because there's just
no way, there's no way that I wouldn't kiss a
person who I was going to be in any form of,
you know, romantic relationship with. Because here's the thing. You
you're not going to convince me, but you if you
if you told me you you cannot do something, it
wouldn't be kissed. Because I think the kissing can tell
(25:02):
you a lot about where we're headed. Because I mean, look,
people like who are experienced kisser people right like to
experienced kisser people may not necessarily kiss each other the
right way, right Like, you don't have to be a
bad kisser. You might be a good kisser to somebody
in a bad kisser to somebody else, right, right, So
(25:23):
it's like it do we kind of fit together in
that way or not? And I'm not trying to teach
somebody how to kiss, and they're not trying to teach
me how to kiss. So I feel like you can
if you were to say to me, like, here's your
perfect person, you can do anything you want, but you
can't sleep with this person, I might be inclined to
do that, but I got to kiss you to make sure,
(25:44):
Like we gotta be kissing. How many times, can I
say kiss and when I got to be kissing, we
have to, Like I might say, we can hold off
on other things if I if I were in this situation,
if I were forced, But there is no way that
I'm marrying somebody who I haven't kissed before.
Speaker 3 (26:00):
I do agree that you can tell a ton from kissing,
So maybe that would be all I needed if it was,
like you know, if I must, But can.
Speaker 2 (26:07):
I at least like feel it and see what's going on.
Speaker 3 (26:12):
Right right over the pants stuff, just in case.
Speaker 1 (26:16):
You might be able to talk me into the other stuff.
Maybe this is because I mean, I'm kind of I
don't know, I've done I've had an awful lot of
that in my life. Like it's fine, you know, I've
had my fair share, So I don't necessarily I think
we could figure that part out. But if we can't,
if we're not if we're not kissing each other, like,
if we're not connecting in that way, then there's absolutely
no way.
Speaker 2 (26:36):
Yeah, I think kissing is so like middle school. So
like I have a really hard time with this topic because.
Speaker 4 (26:42):
I feel like, okay, like all right, the you know,
having intimate relations part is one thing, Yes, like you said, Kaylin, like,
I like, what are you working with over here?
Speaker 2 (26:50):
Yeah, but if you don't want to kiss me, I
would assume like you just I don't know, maybe that
you don't want me. Yeah, well this.
Speaker 1 (26:56):
Isn't a matter of wanting. This is a conscious decision
that they made. I assume. I mean, I'll say the
guys like, dude, I don't I ain't kiss unless you
marry me. For what.
Speaker 2 (27:04):
I don't know, because it's like I'm.
Speaker 1 (27:06):
Assuming, I'm assuming that it is because I mean again,
I don't know that it would be.
Speaker 2 (27:10):
Like we're taking it too far.
Speaker 1 (27:11):
No, I don't know that.
Speaker 5 (27:12):
I don't know what it would be. Like we can
do it is a c we can do anything. We
can do all the things we could do, Coulleen, his promise.
We can do everything. But we're not kissing. Absolutely not.
Speaker 2 (27:22):
You don't want me to tell me, I just don't.
Speaker 3 (27:24):
I don't subscribe to like saving things as a gift
for someone, and you know how I feel about that,
Like we're putting it up on a pedestal.
Speaker 2 (27:31):
It's not that big of a deal, a pedestal. You
say that to me every time I say.
Speaker 5 (27:35):
I was waiting to do that how do I say,
I know he doesn't it's pedestal.
Speaker 1 (27:41):
I don't think you say stool. I don't think it
says to you, well, here's a pedestal. It just whatever
you do, don't put on a pedestal. It always it's fine. Then,
so you and you're not doing this, like if I
told you you can, here's the perfect person. I don't
know whatever you're into, here's the perfect person, right and
in every way, miss, but you can't kiss him until
(28:04):
you marry him. Would you go for it?
Speaker 6 (28:06):
No way, absolutely not. Just like a little background, my
husband actually had a work accident and he hurt himself
down there and uh, I'm sorry, way, there is no way.
He's good now, fully functioning, We're good. I wouldn't have
married him. I don't think if it didn't work. I
know that sounds really bad, but like girls got needs, now.
Speaker 1 (28:29):
Zan hold on a second. Now, we stumbled on something
and we're just not We're just not gonna dist We're
not gonna just dosy dough past that like what we're
not so in a in a family friendly way, and
so hold on before we talk about this. Everything your husband,
everything's fine, right, Everything's okay.
Speaker 6 (28:46):
Yes, he's fine, like barely even a scar. He's good.
Speaker 1 (28:49):
Fantastic. So now that we've established everything is okay. What happened?
Speaker 6 (28:55):
So at the time he was a mechanic and he
was using a which is basically like a spinning wheel,
and it exploded. So the wheel itself exploded and kind
of just in different directions.
Speaker 1 (29:09):
Oh my god.
Speaker 6 (29:09):
And then uh yeah, they had to call an ambulance
and he passed out when he saw that. He was
leading He's like, something doesn't feel right.
Speaker 1 (29:18):
So that was I.
Speaker 6 (29:19):
Think we had been talking for like two months when
that happened. I was like, oh boy, so hit what
to say?
Speaker 1 (29:25):
It hit another region?
Speaker 6 (29:28):
It hits another region and then they have.
Speaker 1 (29:29):
To like reattach it or something or no, it was
just the how okay? Oh so they fixed it kind.
Speaker 6 (29:42):
Of healed on its own, and he has.
Speaker 2 (29:45):
Does it look the same?
Speaker 6 (29:47):
It does?
Speaker 1 (29:48):
Oh yeah, fantastic. I might if that happened to me,
and God forbid, I might be like, Doc, what are
my options here? Can we you know? What can we do?
What can we do with what we're working with here?
Can we? I mean, if we're reading you know, can
we like you know, can I I know? I specify
some dimensions. Is that possible. I'm so glad that everything
(30:08):
is okay, goodness. I'm sorry the topic change, but there's
there's no way that I could. There's no way you
were getting off the phone without some details about that.
Speaker 4 (30:16):
Thank you, sir, have a.
Speaker 6 (30:18):
Good day, Yeah, thank you.
Speaker 1 (30:21):
This is a text the dugg Or cult. People only
hold hands until marriage. Oh yeah, yeah, that's that's not
going to do it for me. Like, I don't know
how you hold hands is not helping me. How you
kiss would help me a lot the rest of it.
If we kiss, really, if we're great kissing partners, then
I think we can figure the rest out.
Speaker 5 (30:42):
You know.
Speaker 3 (30:42):
My theory though about holding hands, like if I see
people cupping hands, I don't think that it's like real, No,
it's not like you got if people are lace fingers, like,
then I'm like, okay, I got to listen.
Speaker 1 (30:53):
Oh so we have to like full on hold hands.
Speaker 3 (30:56):
Yeah, I'm just not buying if somebody's copped like, I
feel like that shows like something going there's some sort
of issue.
Speaker 1 (31:01):
But intertwined handholding is like, that's that's serious handholding. That's
a lot. That's intense, you know, but I don't think
that's a standard handhold. I don't think intertwined handholds. I
mean that's like I'm really holding your hand. That's not
like I'm being cute and I grabbed your pinky or
your couple fingers and we're just walking around. Like intertwined
handholding is like weird, we're locked in. I don't know
(31:24):
is that a standard handhold an intertwined handhold. I don't
think it is.
Speaker 4 (31:27):
I hand like cuppying her, like I'm helping her down
the stairs or something like a little senior citizen.
Speaker 2 (31:33):
But my husband, like we're locking in. I'm never letting go.
Speaker 1 (31:36):
I feel like an intertwined handhold would be like me
giving you a bear hug every time I hug you,
like tackle you, Like it's a very aggressive handhold.
Speaker 2 (31:44):
Hold hands with your like if you have a girlfriend,
honeyhold hands.
Speaker 1 (31:47):
I don't know that. I don't know that every time.
It's like it's like every time you make your every
time you make that with someone, you don't french kiss
every when you make out, Like every time every time
you kiss someone, you don't french kiss them every time.
So so every time I don't I don't like immerse
my hand in yours, Like, I feel like that's sometimes
(32:08):
there's a little cute, little casual handhold, isn't there.
Speaker 2 (32:11):
I'm not cuppying someone I love.
Speaker 1 (32:12):
I'm sorry, no, I yeah, okay, I don't know. I
don't know, man, but that seems aggressive to me. It's
an aggressive handhold. Too early for this. Yeah, they talk
better than they excited. These are the radio blocks on
the Fred Show. Laura, Laura Texas. She's like, you know
what Kiki thinks? Kiki, what do you think Kikey's in grease?
(32:36):
I can't tell. You don't know. Kiki's on a Grecian vacation. Guys, Yeah, Kiki,
I'm not gonna call kik Kik. You know she's doing
a thing. Don't worry you obviously, don't follow her on
social media because I think she last night packed her
bags and we got to see every piece of you
know ingredient that went in her every ingredient that went
in her bag. I think we got to see. So, yeah,
you need to go follow her on social media because
(32:57):
don't worry, there will be no part of this trip
that is missed. I think she trying to figure out
how to get an internet connection in the sky, so
she can she can TikTok live the whole whole way
over all nine hours.
Speaker 2 (33:06):
I tune in.
Speaker 1 (33:07):
Yeah, well for nine hours, you know, the whole time.
Fred is criticis a text. Fred is critical over the
type of handholding we should do. But at the same
time he's single. What is that critical? It was a joke.
Speaker 3 (33:22):
He was saying it's not his favorite hand hold, and
that's okay.
Speaker 1 (33:26):
I think it's not a standard everyday handhold. I think
that's it. I think that's a more serious, especially Cajun handhold.
Speaker 2 (33:32):
I think you're critical.
Speaker 1 (33:33):
I just chance him. He's Luise. She's Louise. Relax everybody.
We've got an indictment on it. On a crisscross interlocked
hand hold. It's just that's an aggressive handhold.
Speaker 3 (33:49):
Also, single people can talk and have opinions like I'm
really sick of Like I.
Speaker 1 (33:52):
Guess I know. It's it's the fact that I won't
interlock my fingers right away in a handhold. That's why
I'm single. Now, let me tell you why I'm single.
Because I'm mentally ill. That's why I can't take it away.
Speaker 2 (34:06):
Dear blog.
Speaker 3 (34:06):
Okay, so I want your guys' opinion on something that
I've kind of been like looking at sideways. But I
don't know if I'm better handl Yeah, let's talk about
tipping and hand holding. No, So I have a friend, Well,
I'm no longer friends with someone who I was very
close to at one point in my life for a
(34:27):
very very very long time. And I don't feel like
it was by my decision. It felt like there wasn't
a lot of effort to resolve the situation, and so
I kind of just like made my.
Speaker 2 (34:39):
Peace with it.
Speaker 3 (34:41):
But this person was very very close to me before
I lost my grandma.
Speaker 2 (34:46):
As I was losing my grandma and afterwards, and.
Speaker 3 (34:49):
Because this person was so close to my family and
my grandma, after she passed away, she had some really
really nice like little crystal things like just you know whatever.
Grandma's a lot of Chatske's, but these were expensive, and
we gave some of her stuff to people that were helpful,
you know, that she loved or you know, like Hillary
got hot. Hillary got some because she was actually a
(35:10):
nurse at the hospital where when she was passing away.
Speaker 2 (35:12):
Yeah yeah, yeah, so she was close with her. So
we just like whatever.
Speaker 3 (35:15):
But this friend got a ton of expensive crystal from
my grandma, And it's just really weird to me that, like,
this person for years has still kept it even though
we're no longer friends, Like for me, wouldn't you guys
feel uncomfortable?
Speaker 1 (35:31):
Like did this person have a relationship with your grandma individually? Well,
I mean obviously through you, but I mean like, but
they had their own relationship.
Speaker 3 (35:41):
I suppose you could say, I mean it would have
never happened without me.
Speaker 1 (35:46):
I guess what I mean is like if you if
you gave me something and it's like, well, this is
a reminder of this person and the relationship that you
had with that person, then I guess I wouldn't necessarily
assume that the gift was contingent on our friendship. Would
assume the gift was more a reflection of the friendship
I had with the person who died. So I guess
that I would I would look at it separate from you,
(36:08):
Like for example, if I I knew Nana, right, if
you had get and I didn't know her well, But
if I'd known her a little better and you had
given me something, and then for some reason, I don't know,
we're not friends anymore. I don't know that I would
necessarily think I better give that back to Kaylin because
I would have assumed that it was given to me
almost on her behalf. Well you know what I mean.
Speaker 3 (36:25):
Yeah, I guess in that case, like she didn't ask
for it to be given to this person at all.
It was just us like showing like, you know whatever here,
you know, we know that you.
Speaker 2 (36:35):
Were close to us and knew her and maybe.
Speaker 3 (36:38):
Helped out a couple times, but they didn't have like
their own individual relationship like that. I guess maybe it's
not something they're thinking about, but I would just feel
odd if someone I used to be friends with like
lost someone was so close to them and I had
pieces of them, but I like am not their friend anymore.
Speaker 2 (36:53):
I guess I don't know. Maybe I'm thinking too deep
into it.
Speaker 1 (36:55):
I think if I were given an air like, let's say,
I'll say it the other way around. If if I
were to give a romantic partner an heirloom, whether they
knew the person or not, but it was a gesture
from me to them, then if we broke up, I
would want the heirloom back because like that's not replaceable.
So I guess this might be similar, but I don't
know it just maybe maybe it's similar now, But then again,
(37:19):
that's me giving it to you with an intention that's
not here's a chotchke on. I don't know. That's a
difficult one.
Speaker 2 (37:27):
Yeah, it is.
Speaker 1 (37:28):
It is.
Speaker 4 (37:28):
I think at that time though too, it's a reflection
of what was right. So it's like, you, guys, we're
very close. Obviously that's one of Nana's items, and like
at that time she was a.
Speaker 2 (37:37):
Big part of her or he or she would be
a part of her lift.
Speaker 1 (37:39):
So I don't know.
Speaker 4 (37:40):
I feel like I just kind of would leave it. Yeah,
let it be in the past, and she would also
give it to you as she can. But also, what
is she going to reach out and say, hey, here's
your grandma's stuff back, you know, I just don't know.
Speaker 1 (37:49):
I think if you have a deep meaning to you,
then you might have a right to ask for it.
But then again again, it's like the way I would
interpret it was like she wanted you to have this
or we want you to have this on her behalf
because it was once. So then it's like, well now
it's about me anymore, which sucks.
Speaker 3 (38:03):
But like, yeah, I would never ask for it back.
I just personally think that I would probably. I mean,
I would have worked harder to save the relationship, to
be completely honest, so I can't put myself in that person.
Speaker 1 (38:12):
Can get you a new bottle cap collection. It'll be fine.
We'll start right now. We'll go after the show to
a bar and we'll start a new one. It'll be fine,
don't you know. That's what I worry about it. It's fine,
but I'm not giving it back, Kleen. It's mine now
about you, just so you know, Waiting by the phone.
More Fred show next right here,
