Speaker 1 (00:00):
Weekend, weekend morning. You got to recharge your crystals. You
recharge your no wonder direct. My crystals have been empty
for my whole life. I never recharge you.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
Yes, come on.
Speaker 1 (00:10):
Fred's show is on a good morning everybody, Thursday, May fifteen,
frend Show's here.
Speaker 3 (00:15):
I'm Kayla, Hi, Jason Brown.
Speaker 1 (00:18):
Hi, Paulina, Hi, Kiki Morning Bellahmin is here on the
phone and the tech same number. Hit us up at
each time eight five to five, five, nine, one, one
o three five headlines, biggest stories at the day. We'll
get to those in just the second. Blogs, Audio journals, throwback,
throw down, waiting by the phone, new player today in
the showdown, show me his keiky. I know it's not
to tie nine hundred bucks. I thought we had a
(00:38):
new player. No, we have a time. Nine hundred bucks.
Thirty one and four is your record. The money is
yours in two weeks, okay, if you could, and which
I think it's only like ten shows total because tomorrow
then we've got there's a day off in there somewhere
and then so yeah ten if you can go ten
and oh you're gonna win hundreds of dollars. Yes, very excited.
Speaker 3 (01:01):
The entertainment reports coming up to what's in there.
Speaker 4 (01:03):
Kaelin, the judge for the Diddy trial, made the decision,
I guess to make a very interesting part of this
whole trial public, and it's perhaps the worst part.
Speaker 2 (01:12):
So I'll tell you what it is.
Speaker 1 (01:14):
Yeah, I'm looking at the texts that we've received since
since we left yesterday, and then I was going through
some of the comments and in my emails and my
dms yesterday.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
Whoa, whoa, whoa. Yeah, we're trying to hurt yourself there.
Speaker 1 (01:26):
Yeah, people there seems to be I am very confused now.
I'm often confused by some of the comments that we
get about things that we do here, because it's like, Meg,
I can't believe you didn't say this, Well I did
say that. Actually, if you listen to the whole thing,
why I shouldn't have to listen to the whole thing
to get the points like oh, okay, but the waiting
(01:48):
by the phone yesterday, Kiki, it was very, very controversial.
It was, and I'm a little confused as to why,
because people seem to think if you didn't hear it,
it's on the iHeartRadio. Am Connor his name? What what?
What's the look on your face for I face. Oh,
you know, you had a look on your face of pain,
like your eyes were closed. Your eyes were closed, and
(02:09):
it was like you were trying to avoid him.
Speaker 2 (02:10):
That's just normal face.
Speaker 1 (02:12):
But I mean you normally look you look like you're
in pain when I'm talking, but like not that much
pain normally. No, you had to look on your face
like what are you about to do? Which I'm not
about doing anything.
Speaker 3 (02:23):
I know. I don't understand. Well, that's the thing. First
of all, I think Keky got you know, he got
his shots in.
Speaker 2 (02:30):
Oh he did, he rolled, He cuts.
Speaker 1 (02:32):
You out of ca He used profanity a few times,
which you did not do in fairness.
Speaker 3 (02:37):
But this is why I don't understand.
Speaker 1 (02:38):
People are like, I can't believe you'd make fun of
this guy who's down on his luck. I don't think
he's down on his lock. This is not a homeless man.
This is a man who admits, on waiting by the
phone that he has money, and he has a job,
and he has options. But he's choosing to pull up
to a date with all of his stuff in his
car and brush his teeth when she gets in the car.
Speaker 3 (03:00):
I mean, come on, let's tell.
Speaker 2 (03:02):
Me your schedule a little better before the date.
Speaker 5 (03:05):
I'm sorry to everyone that I made met yesterday.
Speaker 1 (03:08):
I really why you no no no no no no
no no no no no no.
Speaker 3 (03:11):
Why are you apologizing?
Speaker 5 (03:12):
Because next time I will make sure to just act
like it is normal to brush your teeth in the
car with your days. I will sit here and I
would mean me normal like that, that is okay, and
it's okay to date and live on people's couches.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
Hey, thank you, Yes, I will shut up next time.
Speaker 3 (03:32):
I'm just I don't understand what the controversy is like,
love it?
Speaker 2 (03:35):
I love y'all.
Speaker 1 (03:35):
Did people hear the same thing I heard? Like this
dude he called us, By the way, that's the part
that everyone seems to forget. This dude who knew the story,
obviously because he was present and we weren't asked us
to figure out what happened, and we certainly did. You
pulled up to the date brushing your teeth and then
changed your clothes in the car and then basically admitted
(03:57):
that you choose to live in your car even though
you have a job and money. And he said that
now again, if this dude had been like I'm down
on my luck, I don't have any place to go,
or whatever, different conversation. But I might also say that
it might maybe dating is not at the top of
my priority list if that's what I'm going through, not
to say that, you know, if you're having a hard
(04:18):
time that you don't deserve love, but like if you
got money to go on dates, then you you might.
You know, I don't know, what do you think is
going to happen after a date or two or three
when she's like, I want to see your place and
you're like, you're in it? Yeah, you know, I guess.
I just don't think that anyone.
Speaker 3 (04:34):
I feel like.
Speaker 1 (04:35):
People are just it's just they're just being mad to
be mad because I'm sorry. But like anybody listening who
went on several days with someone and then they're like,
well I want to spend the night, Well, then close
your eyes. You know we're here.
Speaker 2 (04:49):
I just like that, I go in your seat, baby.
Speaker 3 (04:52):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
I just I don't think that most people would say, like, well,
that's totally normal.
Speaker 3 (04:58):
So I mean, come on, you guys. At some point,
enough is enough.
Speaker 5 (05:02):
I mean, hey, next, like I said, next time, I
will act like that.
Speaker 2 (05:06):
It's totally normal.
Speaker 1 (05:06):
Please, it's like I didn't know, No, you do you
I didn't. We didn't just call this guy. We didn't
just find this guy. Oh look, here's a guy who
lives in his car. Let's make fun, no hell.
Speaker 2 (05:19):
With us every morning.
Speaker 3 (05:19):
Every morning he called us.
Speaker 1 (05:23):
He knew the story before we did, so he knew
what she was gonna say.
Speaker 2 (05:29):
But you haven't.
Speaker 5 (05:29):
I haven't been in a dating scene in a long time.
So maybe this is like Lenor's all here now?
Speaker 3 (05:34):
No, maybe you know. No, I can tell you it's not.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
I'm I. I, you know, dabble in this in this realm,
and I can tell you it's not pretty, but it's
not that. Come on you guys, like for the people
who are mad. If I showed up to pick a
woman up in my car and I and I was
living in it by choice and brushing my teeth and
getting toothpaste on my shirt while you get in the car,
I would get made fun of. I would get roasted
(06:01):
on those websites. Are we dating the same guy like
I already have? I would get killed and none of
you would stand up for me, none of you, but
the people are the comments are mad. Relax, you wouldn't defend,
and the people in the comments would be like, I
can't believe you're going on dates. Man, brush your teeth
before you go on the date. But then when it's happening,
it is guy. Then it's like, oh, you guys are mean. No,
I will not stand for this.
Speaker 2 (06:22):
Okay. Me on the other hand, I'm sorry.
Speaker 3 (06:25):
You need to start apologizing to these people. People mad.
We got emails to the management yesterday. Management. I was
just funny.
Speaker 1 (06:34):
Yeah, well, management just forged them for me to deal
with if they don't bother with it. But you know,
I'm just funny to people. And of course they don't.
Once I write them back, they don't write back to me.
Oh no, because they just want to be It was like,
I can't believe I disrespect you guys.
Speaker 3 (06:46):
He called us, Yeah, he called us from the car.
He knows what's going on.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
Yeah, hey, look this guy probably he's probably saving up
and he's about to live in a house of ten
times nicer than the rest of us. And then somebody commented,
Kiki doesn't even have a house.
Speaker 2 (07:02):
Yes she does, she owns her own home.
Speaker 5 (07:04):
Yeah right, yeah, live in my car too, I and
e ep.
Speaker 1 (07:08):
You live in your car, but you choose that because
it's in your garage. You you're just too lazy to
walk into the house.
Speaker 5 (07:14):
Sometimes that would not go on a.
Speaker 3 (07:17):
Totally understandable you know.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
I'm just I just think like, if I did some
of this stuff, you guys would kill me. You would
make fun of me, people would roast me. It would
be like so much fun for some of these haters.
But then somebody else does it, and it's like, you
guys are terrible anywhere. Go listen to it if you
know what I'm talking. If you don't know. On the
iHeartRadio app, I got some I got wedding news. It's
not my wedding news. But no, sorry, my mom heard
(07:41):
that and perks up and sorry, no it's not it's
not my wedding news.
Speaker 3 (07:45):
I got two things.
Speaker 1 (07:46):
So, first of all, when did it ever become a
thing for someone to propose at someone else's wedding?
Speaker 3 (07:55):
What? Like?
Speaker 1 (07:56):
When when did that ever become something that that that
anyone thought that was a good idea. Because at a
recent Jacksonville wedding, a guest named alyssa her boyfriend Josh.
I love how now in these stories they put your
full name, like, oh, cool. So now we can go
to your LinkedIn find out where you work and like
harassed you there too, Like you know what I mean,
Like that's not cool. But then again, don't do this,
(08:17):
then you won't have the problem. So Josh, he's Alyssa's boyfriend.
He dropped to one knee and proposed right on the
dance floor at someone else's wedding without asking the bride
or groom for permission. The bride was caught off guard,
where there was surprise and supportive no he didn't ask,
but say yes. The mom was shared on TikTok, where
when viral, of course, sparking a.
Speaker 3 (08:38):
Very heated debate.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
Critics slammed the moves disrespectful and attention grabbing, with some
labeling it He'll Billy Traylor parkish.
Speaker 3 (08:45):
They argue that it overshadowed the couple.
Speaker 1 (08:47):
Special day supporters saw it as spontaneous an active love,
knowing that weddings are about celebrating unity. Yes, the unity
of the person who paid for the wedding, not you.
You do not get to use someone else's party as
you're catering for your event.
Speaker 2 (09:04):
Yeah right, that's kind of what it is.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
So I mean, what like what are people thinking? Like,
in what world has had a good idea? I honestly,
I'm pretty laid back guy. I'd be pissed. I'd be
wait a minute. I waited for this day. We planned it,
we invited everybody, we paid for all the drinks, we
paid for all this entertainment and everything, and now you're
somehow trying to make it about you. It's about me today, Well,
(09:30):
really it's about you know whoever I'm.
Speaker 4 (09:31):
Married, I know someone who shared their engagement during the
wedding weekend of someone else's and even I think even
that's like a little bit off, just to just maybe
another time, you know what I mean. So the group
of friends were there and they announced it to everyone,
but it takes the shine away from the couple wasn't
on the wedding day.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
But I guess if you show up with a ring
and people are like, what's that? But then again, your
friends don't know you got engaged until you all get
together for someone else's event. Like at the least you
could do like, let's say you get a gauge on
a Wednesday or even a Saturday, and the following Saturday,
you're gonna see everybody the least you could do is
let everybody know before you see them, hey I got engaged,
yea yea yay, and get some of that initial surprise
(10:10):
and stuff, because yeah, you go to somebody else's wedding
weekend and now everyone's like, not that it has to
be all about you, but like, why would you do
something to intentionally take the shine away from the person
whose events it is?
Speaker 6 (10:23):
Yeah, and I feel like I wouldn't even as somebody
who let's just say I'm the one getting proposed to
at someone's wedding. It's a weird sin Stephen's day or thing,
but like I would feel like this isn't even about
me either, because we're literally at someone's way.
Speaker 4 (10:34):
I'd say no, So both sides, I'd be like, you're rude,
I don't want to marry you.
Speaker 6 (10:37):
Yeah, I feel like both sides anyway, no matters really
out the door for everybody.
Speaker 1 (10:41):
I mean, I'm curious quickly eight five, five, five, nine
one three five did anyone do anything at anyone's wedding
that either blew you away or it was your wedding
that made you mad? I think I think the number
one thing I can remember if my sister's wedding was
and I God bless my parents because they paid for it,
but they insisted on having certain people there and there
were only certain of spots.
Speaker 3 (11:00):
There was a budget.
Speaker 1 (11:01):
It was you know, these are expensive whendings are EXPENSI
if you know that, no kidding, And there had to
be certain people there that my parents wanted because well,
they were paying for it.
Speaker 3 (11:07):
And then some of those people didn't show up.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
Oh wow, and so and now granted I don't remember
if any of my sister's friends didn't show up, but
there were definitely people that my sister wanted that there
was there wasn't any room for. And so I'm not
blaming on my parents because they were also upset because
they you know, there were empty seats at this thing.
They paid for it either way, so they weren't happy either.
But I mean, if you're going to RSVP yes to
a wedding, then you you should go. And if you're
(11:31):
not going to go, it should be very clear that
you can't go, and it better'd be a really good reason.
Speaker 2 (11:35):
Oh, like emergency, like your arm fell off. Yeah, your
arm fell off, fell out of nowhere? You got another arm?
What about hooking up.
Speaker 4 (11:44):
With someone in one of the wedding parties because that
takes the shine away from the couple over a wedding weekend.
Speaker 1 (11:48):
Are we cool with that? Oh?
Speaker 3 (11:50):
It does.
Speaker 2 (11:52):
No, I don't know.
Speaker 4 (11:52):
I'm kidding, but it does make everybody talk the next morning,
you know what I mean.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
And it's not about the bride and the groom. It's
a who hooked up with the grooms?
Speaker 1 (11:59):
Yeah, but I'm sides of that one where the breakfast
the Sunday morning brunch is a little awkward. Oh yeah,
either because I was. Because if you're a single person
and Camln you probably know this. I don't know, probably
enough you experienced this. Kiki of course is single, but
not really. Yeah, and it doesn't happen so much. I
guess it would, but it was more like when people's
first marriages, So when I was like late twenties, early thirties,
(12:20):
where people were still very single, and so you if
you were single and someone else was gonna be single
at the wedding then and you didn't know the person,
then you were getting teed up for this. Like every
wedding I went to when I was single in my
twenties and thirties, it was like, oh so and so
is gonna be there. You need to meet so and so.
You need meet so and so. You needed so and so.
All you guys are gonna love each other. She lives
in Denver, but you're gonna love her whatever. And then
(12:41):
you meet and then either you hit it off or
one of the other of you wants at hooking up
with someone else, right, and then the next morning someone's bummed.
It's either I'm the one who was like, oh, I
thought we were gonna mess around, but like, there's no guarantee.
We never met, you know, it was just the bride, like,
you know, gassing it up. Yeah, but she was probably
gassing it up times three to the other guys. And
then you know, or I'm the one who gets you know,
(13:02):
you know, we wanted up hooking up, but some other
guys like or girl or vice versa. So yeah, the
Sunday morning brunch could be a little awkward. Oh boy, Paul, Paul,
what have you done?
Speaker 3 (13:12):
What did you?
Speaker 7 (13:13):
Paul? Well, good morning, love you love your show.
Speaker 3 (13:17):
Thank you, love you too, Well, I love you too,
But what's this story? What did you do?
Speaker 7 (13:21):
So I actually got engaged at my sister's wedding.
Speaker 3 (13:27):
You better have a good reason for this, I do,
I do.
Speaker 7 (13:33):
I had planned it out with my sister and her approval,
and we uh, everyone we loved was there. Her family
was there, My family was there, so we were surrounded
by everybody we love. My sister thought it was a
great idea as well, and it was planned with DJ
and and so he gave me the mic and the
(13:56):
middle of the wedding after all the bestctivities, and I
pulled a chair out to the floor. I requested cool
to come and sit in the chair and got on
one knee and proposed right then and there.
Speaker 3 (14:13):
Bruh.
Speaker 1 (14:14):
I love you, Paul, but you you went ahead and
just hijacked the whole moment, like you went and did
a whole thing with a chair and an empty dance
floor and a microphone. I mean you, straight up, we
did a ninety degree turn on someone else's wedding.
Speaker 3 (14:29):
Now.
Speaker 1 (14:29):
I appreciate that you asked for permission, But do you
truly believe, Paul, that your sister was in a position
to tell you no, don't do that.
Speaker 7 (14:38):
She would have.
Speaker 2 (14:39):
Okay, okay, all right.
Speaker 7 (14:41):
It was something that my sister and I are very close,
and her husband had been They were high school sweethearts.
Speaker 3 (14:48):
So I mean you asked.
Speaker 1 (14:50):
You asked this person that we're talking about in the
story didn't ask, You did get permission.
Speaker 3 (14:54):
So and I see the logic.
Speaker 1 (14:56):
Everybody's there, you know, when you're going to get everybody
else there, unless it's a hollow day or something like that.
Speaker 3 (15:00):
So I see, I see where you're going. And it
was nice of you to ask for permission. But I
don't know that.
Speaker 1 (15:05):
I think your sister is a very nice person because
I think there are some people out there that would
have said no, not today.
Speaker 7 (15:11):
You know, yes, absolutely, When I said I do agree
with that, I well, you asked. I did ask. And
it wasn't like I said, hey, you know what can
I do this? It was a mutual conversation of sharing
and I talked about her about proposing and when and
(15:34):
a bad idea came up. Is totally supportive and then
we you know, talkedor kerb soon to be a husband
at that time, and they all thought it was a
good idea.
Speaker 1 (15:47):
All right, well you you ran you ran it by
it and it's good. Paul, Hey, thanks for Sarah Man.
Speaker 3 (15:51):
Have a good day. You right, you too?
Speaker 1 (15:54):
Man?
Speaker 3 (15:55):
Oh this is good. Hey, Shawnie. Hello, what your mom did?
Speaker 6 (16:01):
What?
Speaker 3 (16:02):
This is your wedding?
Speaker 8 (16:04):
Yeah, so this is my wedding. My mom had been
having an affair. Oh, and decided to tell her husband
at my wedding that she had been having the affair.
And not only that, but she invited her a fair partner.
Speaker 2 (16:16):
To my wedding.
Speaker 3 (16:18):
A fair partner is a very nice way of saying.
This is classic. You're a partner in the affair. Wow. Wow,
this all happened.
Speaker 8 (16:28):
We ended up having to call the police because who
was flying? Yeah, it was it was a whole It
was crazy.
Speaker 3 (16:36):
I heard.
Speaker 2 (16:37):
That's good luck though, if that happens on your wedding day.
So your guys, wow, oh no, have.
Speaker 3 (16:41):
You forgiven your mom for this?
Speaker 1 (16:43):
Like?
Speaker 3 (16:43):
Have you have you guys discussed? Are you talking? Are
you over it?
Speaker 6 (16:46):
Like?
Speaker 3 (16:46):
How are you feeling? It's complicated?
Speaker 1 (16:52):
Yeah, I would imagine I would have that story alone.
Gives me a snapshot about what that relationship might look like.
And and and I you know, I hate to but
who who that relationship might be mostly about? I feel
like mom might be a person who's a lot about Mom.
Is that is that accurate?
Speaker 3 (17:08):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (17:08):
She's very nurse Ah yes, that's the worst.
Speaker 1 (17:11):
Yeah, you know, I'm not a licensed psychologist, but I
can spot one when I hear it. Thank you, Johanny,
you have a good day.
Speaker 8 (17:18):
You too, Thank you.
Speaker 3 (17:19):
Oh my god, that is amazing. What is wrong with you?
Speaker 2 (17:22):
I betrayal your own mom?
Speaker 7 (17:24):
What is wrong with you?
Speaker 1 (17:25):
And then my second wedding story in the segment, I
have questions about this too, because honestly, I want to
know who this really looks worse on. But this was
viral last week, the last week on TikTok. But during
a wedding reception, a groom shot guess by revealing that
his bride had cheated on him with his best man.
Speaker 3 (17:44):
Now this we find out this is a bit. It
still isn't whatever.
Speaker 1 (17:47):
But the father of the bride concluded his speech at
the wedding, the groom stood up and asked attendees to
open envelopes placed on their tables. Inside were photos exposing
the affair that this guy's wife was having with the
best man. He then announced he was leaving, dropped the mic,
and his entire family walked out with him. The bride's family,
(18:10):
who had funded the wedding, was left to deal with
the aftermath. This was shared on a UK podcast, The
Unfiltered Bride in a sense gone viral.
Speaker 3 (18:19):
Now here's my thing. Did he marry her?
Speaker 1 (18:21):
So he went through with the actual ceremony and then
or did he do this in front of everybody like
on the altar? Because it was he said the bride.
The father of the bride had a speech that usually
happens after you get married, right, So he went through
with the ceremony.
Speaker 3 (18:34):
So he married her.
Speaker 1 (18:35):
Oh and then I guess you can get an annulment.
But like, this was obviously you know, there was forethought here.
This was planned. I mean somebody went to FedEx Kinko's
and got everything printed out and put it all your
envelopes on the tables and stuff, and then and the
family talked about this. So my thing is, yeah, I mean,
of course, you have every right to be scorned and
angry that you're being cheated on with your presumably best
(18:57):
friend and your wife and this wedding is happening in
the whole, But like, does it make you look worse
as the person who scorned to make everybody come to
this wedding and then plan this big production.
Speaker 2 (19:09):
Oh I love this too.
Speaker 5 (19:10):
I think he this is chef's kiss. This is how
you expose somebody, and you build it all up. You
have this big ceremony, you go into the reception and
then boom, and then you drop the mic and walk away.
I think he did a phenomenal job.
Speaker 1 (19:23):
Now, except for the story that I would have had
for the show. I mean, if you made me fly
across the country for this, I'd have been pissed. Really,
So wait a minute. You knew a week ago when
you were at you know, at Kinko's Copies that's even
a thing anymore. At the photoshop put you know whatever,
you were in there, the copying stuff and making envelopes
of things.
Speaker 3 (19:40):
You knew that.
Speaker 1 (19:41):
And I still had to fly across the country to Tuscaloosa,
you know, to go to your wedding, only for you
to know this wasn't gonna happen to be a big
production walk out. I mean, yeah, I guess if your
team groomed, then you're gonna have a great night at
the bar later. Yes, and it's a good story, but
who does this actually make look worse though? I mean,
of course it's the cheater, But then this is pretty
like I don't know this is like, this is not
(20:04):
the best look like you look. You look like mad
mad mad.
Speaker 2 (20:09):
Like like like patty mad, but I am petty.
Speaker 1 (20:11):
Yeah, but how about just cancel the wedding, keep the
money and then put on the wedding website these pictures
and then for the link to everybody. So it's time saving,
it's cost effective, and you're accomplishing the same thing. So
you would have if this happened, and God forbid, Big
Tim were this guy, you would we'd all go to
your wedding. We'd have the flowers and the you know,
we'd have the whole thing and catering and the bar,
(20:33):
and we'd have the DJ there, the whole thing. Oh yes,
and then you'd blow it up.
Speaker 5 (20:38):
I would blow it up, Yes, yes, because it just
makes it that more dramatic. Everybody's in the same room,
everybody's reacting at the same time. The bride is stunned,
the best man is stunned, everybody that needs.
Speaker 2 (20:52):
To be this is this is phenomenal. I love it.
I did a slide show. I would have the power
point pria whatever you need.
Speaker 6 (21:02):
Really yeah, yeah, Because I like to embarrassed people that
deserve to be embarrassed.
Speaker 2 (21:06):
I really I really enjoy that, like thoroughly, especially if
you hurt me in that way.
Speaker 6 (21:11):
I mean, I'm marrying you, and it's it's my best
friend and my husband right in my scenario like creeping
around like yeah, that hurts, and we're both gonna be
hurt together.
Speaker 2 (21:19):
I know it's not great. My therapist doesn't like, let
I do that, But if I'm hurt, you're gonna be.
Speaker 3 (21:22):
Hurt too, oh neat Well, okay, yeah, keeping very pretty.
Keep that.
Speaker 2 (21:28):
I'm working on it.
Speaker 1 (21:29):
Well, And I guess you paid for everything, so like
you know, I mean, you're committed. I get I suppose,
but again, you know, if I had a flight of
Dallas for this.
Speaker 2 (21:40):
Right right, you would love this.
Speaker 3 (21:41):
This is the best story ever, I guess.
Speaker 5 (21:44):
But I you know, I can't pay for this type
of entertainment, Like there's no movie that would entertain you
more than being at a wedding opening up an envelope
and seeing the groom or the bride with somebody else.
Speaker 1 (21:54):
You're like what And I'm not saying it's right, but
I sometimes I think the petty person winds up looking dumber,
looking a little foolish, Like so you you took all
that time and energy to come.
Speaker 3 (22:04):
Up with your with your response.
Speaker 1 (22:05):
The best response probably would have been just to embarrass
them and then just bounce. But like you thought about it, man,
you stewed on it. Yes, you gotta cheated on me exactly.
Speaker 3 (22:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (22:15):
Well, my guess idline Biggest Stories of the Day next
the Fred Show is on Fred's Biggest Stories of the Day.
Somebody texted, Fred, you know you would love the scenario
because you'd be able to leave early to work on
another Lego set. You know what, I haven't put together
a Lego set in many weeks. Okay, now the one
(22:36):
I want comes out today, but the issue ish, Yeah,
it's a new.
Speaker 3 (22:39):
Release, it's dropping today. Okay.
Speaker 1 (22:41):
I think there's already lines around the Lego store. I
think it's already around the building. But it's that seven
forty seven that carries the space ship.
Speaker 4 (22:49):
Ah.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
Yes, and you get to build a spaceship and the
seven forty seven. Here's the problem. It's big, and I
don't know where the hell i'd put this. So I'm
not at the point yet where I'm gonna do like
the eight year old's bedroom where I hang it from
the ceiling, Like I'm not.
Speaker 3 (23:05):
We're not there yet. I mean we're close.
Speaker 2 (23:07):
I mean, you have a car bed, so we're going.
Speaker 7 (23:09):
No, No, I know.
Speaker 3 (23:10):
I have the world's only King sites Water car bed. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (23:13):
I had to have it made out of two children's
beds because they don't, you know, typically make them for
grown ups. But it's it's it's surreal with crowd blazer. Yeah,
it has the steering wheel and everything. Yeah, it lights upbeat.
Speaker 3 (23:24):
Yeah, it's cool.
Speaker 2 (23:25):
I love that.
Speaker 1 (23:25):
Yeah. No, Caitlin loved it when she saw it. She
didn't of course, wasn't there for the entertainment purposes. Well,
I mean you've seen it obviously, because you're telling people
about it. Yeah, I'm surprised that doesn't show up in
any of these message boards the car bed. I do
make everyone sign a non disclosure though when they come
to my house, because what I don't need them telling
people is about the seven forty seven spaceship legos in
the car beds.
Speaker 2 (23:46):
The t people want to spill on you, like he
has like children stuffed animals in there.
Speaker 3 (23:52):
Yeah, that's true, it's I have doctor Susard art Wall.
I No, it's absolutely true.
Speaker 1 (23:58):
It's absolutely true, And people like sometimes I'll do zoom
calls and the clients or whatever.
Speaker 3 (24:02):
It'll be like, oh, you have kids. I'm like no, no,
it's all mine, it's all mine.
Speaker 1 (24:07):
Yeah. Yeah, I've thought long and hard about having people
signed nondisclosures when they come to my house. And I
talked to my attorney, I'm like, hey, Mike, like, draw
me up a non disclosure. It's like it would never
hold up. I'm like no, but that's not the point.
The point is the lure of people coming over, and
I may as soon as they walk in, you have
to sign this waiver, this non disclosure, that nothing that
you see here.
Speaker 3 (24:25):
Can you ever discuss what.
Speaker 2 (24:27):
Did Jason and I signed then when we were over?
Speaker 3 (24:29):
Oh that was all your money over to me? Oh god.
Speaker 1 (24:31):
Yeah. That's the problem is Jason has mostly debts, so
that really didn't work out well for me.
Speaker 3 (24:36):
You're in the rears now. Yeah. My credit score went
way down because I mean the rears what it's called.
You're below zero, you're in the rears.
Speaker 1 (24:48):
I don't Jason. I know you'd like me to be
in the rear, but I love you so much, but
not that much. There is a line, there is, and
there isn't. You're trying to get in that racecar bed
so bad. And the fact that it's a bunk bed
is also wild wild a king sized race car bunk water.
Speaker 2 (25:12):
It's one of one.
Speaker 1 (25:13):
They have the thing custom made it. It was like
forty seven thousand dollars but comfortable. No, it's really cool.
Speaker 7 (25:20):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (25:21):
Whoever's on the bottom bunk is just I'm terrified for
them for their locks.
Speaker 2 (25:26):
Yeah, it's double car back, No.
Speaker 1 (25:27):
It is, it is.
Speaker 3 (25:29):
It's really cool.
Speaker 1 (25:30):
Actually, it sounds really cool and I might actually look
into that there, but I wouldn't go racecard go airplane.
Speaker 3 (25:37):
Zoomoo obviously zoom zoom.
Speaker 1 (25:40):
Yeah, but can you imagine, like if that would be
the story, it would be like, Dude, I went to
his house, I had to sign this this thing, and
they'd be, well, what happened in there? And I can't
tell you, But nothing would happen, Like there's I am vanilla,
Like nothing would happen. You'd come over, we'd, you know,
I don't know, sit there. Yeah, we'd make love for
the first time.
Speaker 3 (25:58):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (25:59):
Then I'm thinking about airplane bed, but I anything that
happens when someone sign an NBA just comes out anyway,
it's just later.
Speaker 3 (26:05):
That's true, right, I.
Speaker 1 (26:09):
Have nothing to hide, So it would be the most
boring NDIA ever. But it would just be the story
that like, yeah, I don't know, I made maybe sign
some stuff like well, what did you do? I can't
say nothing. We didn't do anything. We watched House Hunters International. Yes,
someone said I'm stuck on Kaylan being Kaylen's not single.
She was at one time single, but not with me.
(26:31):
All right, headlines over then, guys, this is this is
serious news is Starbucks today? We have a serious issue
at Starbucks. But over a thousand Starbucks baristas at seventy
five US stories went on strike starting Sunday. You want
to why they don't like the new dress code. I've
heard about this since the rules, which kicked in on
Monday said barisas have to wear solid black shirts and khaki,
(26:52):
black or blue denim pants. How dare they before they
could wear darker colors and patterned shirts. Not anymore, though,
uh and the union their Workers United says that the
change is too strict and feels disrespectful, especially when the
company didn't run it by them first. I'm sorry, guys,
(27:13):
I am sorry, but there are people fighting for like
equal treatment in workplaces and equal pay and ethical treatment.
Speaker 2 (27:22):
Every day and all kinds of things like real lifestuff.
Speaker 1 (27:28):
And you're mad because you have to wear a black
shirt and a choice of different jeans. Black pants and
jeans is your uniform? You guys, weird uniforms of my
previous jobs died for now. Boris is geting two free
branded T shirts, but many are upset that they're losing
their personal style. The union hints more walkouts if things
don't change. Starbucks says it's working to fix the issues
(27:51):
and keep stores running. The strike has spark talk online,
some calling the dress code unfair.
Speaker 2 (27:56):
Oh gracious, you guys, you know you know what stand Hell, yeah,
of course you do. You never mind, No, I don't.
Speaker 6 (28:07):
Buy today if you guys, you guys, Hey, they stand
for something, Okay. If you don't stand for something, you
stand for nothing of anything.
Speaker 5 (28:17):
You guys don't want me to learn a different language
to make a coffee drink? And I can't come in here,
and where would I want to wear?
Speaker 3 (28:23):
What different language am I making?
Speaker 7 (28:25):
You?
Speaker 2 (28:25):
Vincey and Italian?
Speaker 1 (28:31):
But whoever just said that? Like if I work at
Jiffy Lube, I have to wear the Jiffy Lube uniform.
Speaker 2 (28:35):
Yes, yes, I have benards.
Speaker 1 (28:36):
I had to wear an apron and a vest and
a tape measure on my belty wanted to do they
run that by you for something.
Speaker 2 (28:43):
They were like, here's your blue vest and your tape measure.
Speaker 3 (28:46):
Don't let me. I think they're protests. There are real problems.
Speaker 1 (28:50):
And I also know that like Starbucks, folks have dealt
with real problems, like they're there.
Speaker 3 (28:54):
They have issues with pay and all kinds of and whatever.
Speaker 1 (28:56):
You can say you agree to disagree with that, but like,
that's one thing, but we are we are willing to
lose our jobs because I can't wear my plaid shirt anymore. Guys, guys,
how many pieces of flair are you wearing? Is what
I want to listen.
Speaker 2 (29:15):
I need to get out there and tell people how
good my style is.
Speaker 3 (29:21):
If you want to do the bare minimum that this
is an office space. You remember that.
Speaker 1 (29:24):
And by the way, do you know the guy who
is the manager in that scene? And you're all looking
at me like you didn't see that movie, But the
manager of the scene is the voice of Beavis and
butt Head whatever his name is. That guy plays both
I think he's both I'm trying to remember his name.
Is it someone will text it to me, but he
he is the actor who is the manager, saying to
(29:46):
Jennifer Aniston, who's in that movie, which is still shocking
to me, as she's in office space when when when
she works at the Flingers I believe it's called or
she works at one of like it like a Chili's knockoff,
and and they get into a debate about how many
little pins she has on her apron and he's like,
you know, I need you to wear thirteen peece at
the Flair and if you want to.
Speaker 3 (30:04):
Do the bare minimum, you know that's a t Yeah,
And people are like, what is this scene?
Speaker 1 (30:09):
Then? Is it Mike Judge, Mike Judge, Yeah, he is
that he is the manager in that scene. There's a
little fun fact.
Speaker 3 (30:14):
For you guys. Come on, come on on this one.
Speaker 2 (30:16):
Yeah, no, it is, come on.
Speaker 3 (30:17):
I'm sorry, but you know.
Speaker 1 (30:21):
Exactly, with all with all due respect to these people
who I don't know, the company doesn't actually Starbucks doesn't
actually have to ask you if it's okay for them
to change their uniform policy, especially when we're talking about
a T shirt and jeans for them, honestly, and I
do think sometimes people forget that, like and if it's
that bad, with all due respect, quit And I mean
(30:43):
you might say it's not that easy, but if you're
that mad about the black T shirt that's free and
the jeans, then just maybe just go work at Pete's
or something.
Speaker 7 (30:51):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (30:52):
And there's so many dunk protests in this That's what
I'm saying. There are much bigger issues. Yes, I've read
about much bigger issues, So like, let's focus on that,
because then when you're doing this too, it takes away
from some of the things like equality and healthcare and
some of the other things I think have been concerns.
And for one K and you know, college reimbursement and
(31:15):
things that I know that they you know, people have.
Speaker 3 (31:16):
Been asking for.
Speaker 6 (31:17):
Yeah, I can actually benefit from it would help a
lot of people, not their plaid shirts or whatever.
Speaker 1 (31:22):
With all due respect, I'll say it for the fifth time,
like I'm not you know, I don't fit in my
drink when I go there. So also big news today
guys Max, you know Max, and I remember why I
said this when they did this. Max is the app
HBO and whatever They're going back to HBO Max.
Speaker 2 (31:42):
Stop it.
Speaker 4 (31:43):
Yeah, that was one of the weirdest, honest things today SIBO, Like,
you may not.
Speaker 1 (31:48):
Know what HBO stands for Home Box Office, but everybody
knows that logo. Everybody knows HBO means cable movies. Everybody.
Everybody knows that. Yes, it is one of the most
famous logos. And and you know initials. Ever, but lo,
let's not let's start something totally new after we've built
this brand for forty or fifty years whatever it is.
(32:09):
But Warner Brothers Discovery is changing their name. Their mind
about Max's name. The company is reverting now to HBO Max.
The president said, the brand that represents the highest quality
in media will amplify the uniqueness that subscribers can expect.
Speaker 3 (32:23):
So good, I'm I'm glad. I'm glad.
Speaker 1 (32:25):
We probably had focus groups about that, probably millions of
dollars were spent a lot of meetings.
Speaker 2 (32:29):
They made a whole new app. I had to get
the Max there.
Speaker 1 (32:31):
Oh yeah, no, the other app doesn't. It didn't work,
and I wanted to move another app. So what are
we gonna move again?
Speaker 2 (32:37):
I think so probably back? Come on, I hate it,
not even redesign, just a whole new app, A whole
new app.
Speaker 1 (32:42):
Girl. Oh yeah, the other one just didn't work anymore.
That was another thing. It's like, why don't you just
change the name of the existing app, But no, I
had to. I had to go download another app and
then delete that one because it didn't work anymore. Right,
and now we're going back. But whoever was in charge
of that may not be working there anymore, because we're talking.
I mean truly that if I know anything about how
these media companies work, they spent millions of dollars trying to.
Speaker 3 (33:04):
Figure this out. Guys, I don't know, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (33:06):
You know what, put it out in the field, get
it out of the field, and they spent millions of
dollars and had consultants come in. You know, it's crazy.
Oh oh yeah, oh yeah, there was a oh yeah,
there was a meeting about a meeting.
Speaker 8 (33:18):
You know that.
Speaker 3 (33:20):
You absolutely know about the what do they call that?
Speaker 1 (33:23):
One of those guys called Satcom and prime Con and
top com. You know, this company has all these little
like groups within groups'cary, you know what I'm talking about?
Speaker 3 (33:34):
What's the top one called?
Speaker 1 (33:36):
I forget what it is it's like you're not well,
we're not welcome in that meeting, like you have to
do it's a special Yeah, it's a special handshake, and
there's an initiation that happens in the dark, and they
wear like you know, you have to be anointed.
Speaker 3 (33:48):
Yeah, it's weird.
Speaker 1 (33:49):
It's weird. And then quickly with headlines here. A recent
survey reveals it ninety percent of dog owners considered their
pup's health as important or more so than their own.
Speaker 3 (33:58):
I believe that.
Speaker 1 (33:59):
I believe totally. You think, honestly, Jason, you're Corgi's. If
it came down to a medical procedure that would save
your Corky's life or something that wouldn't necessarily save your life,
but like that you could put off, but you'd be
in pain, you'd go for the corgi.
Speaker 3 (34:12):
Oh one percent. So would my mom. So would you,
So would you?
Speaker 1 (34:16):
Everybody would everybody would eleanor Eloise, Oliver and Owen. Old
fashioned baby names are back. That's trending today. Oh and
along the lines of the first story, But heads up
emoji enthusiasts the classic smiley face emoji. It's a smiley face, right,
the basic smiley face yellow black smile. You know the
(34:38):
one gen Z is not receiving it the way that
you'd like them to. According to a recent report, younger
folks are interpreting the smiley not as a friendly gesture
but as passive, aggressive, and sarcastic. One gen Z person
described it as a side eye smile, suggesting it's dismissive
and not delightful. The shift titans a broader generational divide
(35:02):
and digital communication. Uh and then apparently what we think
the meaning of the emoji is because it's a smile.
So I don't know how you might get confused about that.
But that doesn't mean that to certain people. So now
I can't send you a smiley face meaning a smile
without someone second guessing it.
Speaker 2 (35:19):
Do you know where your emojis are on your phone?
Because you don't, you don't use them.
Speaker 1 (35:23):
I'm vaguely familiar, you know, I'm vaguely familiar. Okay, yeah,
not a big emoji guy. No, I'm a grown man too,
So there's that. But I said smiley yesterday, But it
wasn't meant to be this smiley.
Speaker 3 (35:34):
It was meant to be like, uh, this is happening
even though we don't.
Speaker 1 (35:37):
Want it to smiley face like it was like, I guess,
I don't I must have been like high or something,
because I don't remember what's happening that I don't want
to happen.
Speaker 3 (35:46):
But because anyway, I found I found that very passive
aggressive of you.
Speaker 7 (35:50):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (35:52):
Actually, I found that smiley face you sent me mean
and disrespectful. It was like, come on again for one
more time this morning in headlights. Come on, I can't
send you a smiley face without getting credit for a smile.
Speaker 3 (36:03):
We're gonna second guess that to send me.
Speaker 2 (36:05):
The smile with the little heart, like the little like
you like a kiss or.
Speaker 1 (36:09):
Like, okay, I send you a kiss in my coworker,
that means I'm trying to make out with you. I
wind up an HR and I get sued, and I
don't have a career, and I wind up living in Florida.
Speaker 2 (36:17):
Somewhere without a job because of a kissy face.
Speaker 5 (36:21):
You know what I mean, Like the little emoji with
the little heart next to it, Like I'm.
Speaker 3 (36:24):
Not I can't send the hearts of my coworker.
Speaker 2 (36:26):
Will send me the smile with the little hands.
Speaker 3 (36:29):
So that said, I know that I think that's groppy.
Speaker 2 (36:31):
Oh yeah, very much. I want to touch your.
Speaker 3 (36:34):
Very Those are Tata hands, you kid, you can't miss them.
Everybody knows this is growth. I can't do that.
Speaker 1 (36:44):
Bring flowers to someone Day and Peace Officers Memorial Day,

phone and the tech same number. Hit us up at
each time eight five to five, five, nine, one, one
o three five headlines, biggest stories at the day. We'll

throw down, waiting by the phone, new player today in
the showdown, show me his keiky. I know it's not

(00:38):
new player. No, we have a time. Nine hundred bucks.
Thirty one and four is your record. The money is

I think it's only like ten shows total because tomorrow

Speaker 3 (01:01):
The entertainment reports coming up to what's in there.
Speaker 4 (01:03):
Kaelin, the judge for the Diddy trial, made the decision,
I guess to make a very interesting part of this
whole trial public, and it's perhaps the worst part.
Speaker 2 (01:12):
So I'll tell you what it is.
Speaker 1 (01:14):
Yeah, I'm looking at the texts that we've received since
since we left yesterday, and then I was going through
some of the comments and in my emails and my
dms yesterday.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
Whoa, whoa, whoa. Yeah, we're trying to hurt yourself there.
Speaker 1 (01:26):
Yeah, people there seems to be I am very confused now.
I'm often confused by some of the comments that we
get about things that we do here, because it's like, Meg,
I can't believe you didn't say this, Well I did
say that. Actually, if you listen to the whole thing,
why I shouldn't have to listen to the whole thing
to get the points like oh, okay, but the waiting
(01:48):
by the phone yesterday, Kiki, it was very, very controversial.
It was, and I'm a little confused as to why,
because people seem to think if you didn't hear it,
it's on the iHeartRadio. Am Connor his name? What what?
What's the look on your face for I face. Oh,
you know, you had a look on your face of pain,
like your eyes were closed. Your eyes were closed, and
(02:09):
it was like you were trying to avoid him.
Speaker 2 (02:10):
That's just normal face.
Speaker 1 (02:12):
But I mean you normally look you look like you're
in pain when I'm talking, but like not that much
pain normally. No, you had to look on your face
like what are you about to do? Which I'm not
about doing anything.
Speaker 3 (02:23):
I know. I don't understand. Well, that's the thing. First
of all, I think Keky got you know, he got
his shots in.
Speaker 2 (02:30):
Oh he did, he rolled, He cuts.
Speaker 1 (02:32):
You out of ca He used profanity a few times,
which you did not do in fairness.
Speaker 3 (02:37):
But this is why I don't understand.
Speaker 1 (02:38):
People are like, I can't believe you'd make fun of
this guy who's down on his luck. I don't think
he's down on his lock. This is not a homeless man.
This is a man who admits, on waiting by the
phone that he has money, and he has a job,
and he has options. But he's choosing to pull up
to a date with all of his stuff in his
car and brush his teeth when she gets in the car.
Speaker 3 (03:00):
I mean, come on, let's tell.
Speaker 2 (03:02):
Me your schedule a little better before the date.
Speaker 5 (03:05):
I'm sorry to everyone that I made met yesterday.
Speaker 1 (03:08):
I really why you no no no no no no
no no no no no no.
Speaker 3 (03:11):
Why are you apologizing?
Speaker 5 (03:12):
Because next time I will make sure to just act
like it is normal to brush your teeth in the
car with your days. I will sit here and I
would mean me normal like that, that is okay, and
it's okay to date and live on people's couches.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
Hey, thank you, Yes, I will shut up next time.
Speaker 3 (03:32):
I'm just I don't understand what the controversy is like,
love it?
Speaker 2 (03:35):
I love y'all.
Speaker 1 (03:35):
Did people hear the same thing I heard? Like this
dude he called us, By the way, that's the part
that everyone seems to forget. This dude who knew the story,
obviously because he was present and we weren't asked us
to figure out what happened, and we certainly did. You
pulled up to the date brushing your teeth and then
changed your clothes in the car and then basically admitted
(03:57):
that you choose to live in your car even though
you have a job and money. And he said that
now again, if this dude had been like I'm down
on my luck, I don't have any place to go,
or whatever, different conversation. But I might also say that
it might maybe dating is not at the top of
my priority list if that's what I'm going through, not
to say that, you know, if you're having a hard
(04:18):
time that you don't deserve love, but like if you
got money to go on dates, then you you might.
You know, I don't know, what do you think is
going to happen after a date or two or three
when she's like, I want to see your place and
you're like, you're in it? Yeah, you know, I guess.
I just don't think that anyone.
Speaker 3 (04:34):
I feel like.
Speaker 1 (04:35):
People are just it's just they're just being mad to
be mad because I'm sorry. But like anybody listening who
went on several days with someone and then they're like,
well I want to spend the night, Well, then close
your eyes. You know we're here.
Speaker 2 (04:49):
I just like that, I go in your seat, baby.
Speaker 3 (04:52):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
I just I don't think that most people would say, like, well,
that's totally normal.
Speaker 3 (04:58):
So I mean, come on, you guys. At some point,
enough is enough.
Speaker 5 (05:02):
I mean, hey, next, like I said, next time, I
will act like that.
Speaker 2 (05:06):
It's totally normal.
Speaker 1 (05:06):
Please, it's like I didn't know, No, you do you
I didn't. We didn't just call this guy. We didn't
just find this guy. Oh look, here's a guy who
lives in his car. Let's make fun, no hell.
Speaker 2 (05:19):
With us every morning.
Speaker 3 (05:19):
Every morning he called us.
Speaker 1 (05:23):
He knew the story before we did, so he knew
what she was gonna say.
Speaker 2 (05:29):
But you haven't.
Speaker 5 (05:29):
I haven't been in a dating scene in a long time.
So maybe this is like Lenor's all here now?
Speaker 3 (05:34):
No, maybe you know. No, I can tell you it's not.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
I'm I. I, you know, dabble in this in this realm,
and I can tell you it's not pretty, but it's
not that. Come on you guys, like for the people
who are mad. If I showed up to pick a
woman up in my car and I and I was
living in it by choice and brushing my teeth and
getting toothpaste on my shirt while you get in the car,
I would get made fun of. I would get roasted
(06:01):
on those websites. Are we dating the same guy like
I already have? I would get killed and none of
you would stand up for me, none of you, but
the people are the comments are mad. Relax, you wouldn't defend,
and the people in the comments would be like, I
can't believe you're going on dates. Man, brush your teeth
before you go on the date. But then when it's happening,
it is guy. Then it's like, oh, you guys are mean. No,
I will not stand for this.
Speaker 2 (06:22):
Okay. Me on the other hand, I'm sorry.
Speaker 3 (06:25):
You need to start apologizing to these people. People mad.
We got emails to the management yesterday. Management. I was
just funny.
Speaker 1 (06:34):
Yeah, well, management just forged them for me to deal
with if they don't bother with it. But you know,
I'm just funny to people. And of course they don't.
Once I write them back, they don't write back to me.
Oh no, because they just want to be It was like,
I can't believe I disrespect you guys.
Speaker 3 (06:46):
He called us, Yeah, he called us from the car.
He knows what's going on.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
Yeah, hey, look this guy probably he's probably saving up
and he's about to live in a house of ten
times nicer than the rest of us. And then somebody commented,
Kiki doesn't even have a house.
Speaker 2 (07:02):
Yes she does, she owns her own home.
Speaker 5 (07:04):
Yeah right, yeah, live in my car too, I and
e ep.
Speaker 1 (07:08):
You live in your car, but you choose that because
it's in your garage. You you're just too lazy to
walk into the house.
Speaker 5 (07:14):
Sometimes that would not go on a.
Speaker 3 (07:17):
Totally understandable you know.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
I'm just I just think like, if I did some
of this stuff, you guys would kill me. You would
make fun of me, people would roast me. It would
be like so much fun for some of these haters.
But then somebody else does it, and it's like, you
guys are terrible anywhere. Go listen to it if you
know what I'm talking. If you don't know. On the
iHeartRadio app, I got some I got wedding news. It's
not my wedding news. But no, sorry, my mom heard
(07:41):
that and perks up and sorry, no it's not it's
not my wedding news.
Speaker 3 (07:45):
I got two things.
Speaker 1 (07:46):
So, first of all, when did it ever become a
thing for someone to propose at someone else's wedding?
Speaker 3 (07:55):
What? Like?
Speaker 1 (07:56):
When when did that ever become something that that that
anyone thought that was a good idea. Because at a
recent Jacksonville wedding, a guest named alyssa her boyfriend Josh.
I love how now in these stories they put your
full name, like, oh, cool. So now we can go
to your LinkedIn find out where you work and like
harassed you there too, Like you know what I mean,
Like that's not cool. But then again, don't do this,
(08:17):
then you won't have the problem. So Josh, he's Alyssa's boyfriend.
He dropped to one knee and proposed right on the
dance floor at someone else's wedding without asking the bride
or groom for permission. The bride was caught off guard,
where there was surprise and supportive no he didn't ask,
but say yes. The mom was shared on TikTok, where
when viral, of course, sparking a.
Speaker 3 (08:38):
Very heated debate.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
Critics slammed the moves disrespectful and attention grabbing, with some
labeling it He'll Billy Traylor parkish.
Speaker 3 (08:45):
They argue that it overshadowed the couple.
Speaker 1 (08:47):
Special day supporters saw it as spontaneous an active love,
knowing that weddings are about celebrating unity. Yes, the unity
of the person who paid for the wedding, not you.
You do not get to use someone else's party as
you're catering for your event.
Speaker 2 (09:04):
Yeah right, that's kind of what it is.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
So I mean, what like what are people thinking? Like,
in what world has had a good idea? I honestly,
I'm pretty laid back guy. I'd be pissed. I'd be
wait a minute. I waited for this day. We planned it,
we invited everybody, we paid for all the drinks, we
paid for all this entertainment and everything, and now you're
somehow trying to make it about you. It's about me today, Well,
(09:30):
really it's about you know whoever I'm.
Speaker 4 (09:31):
Married, I know someone who shared their engagement during the
wedding weekend of someone else's and even I think even
that's like a little bit off, just to just maybe
another time, you know what I mean. So the group
of friends were there and they announced it to everyone,
but it takes the shine away from the couple wasn't
on the wedding day.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
But I guess if you show up with a ring
and people are like, what's that? But then again, your
friends don't know you got engaged until you all get
together for someone else's event. Like at the least you
could do like, let's say you get a gauge on
a Wednesday or even a Saturday, and the following Saturday,
you're gonna see everybody the least you could do is
let everybody know before you see them, hey I got engaged,
yea yea yay, and get some of that initial surprise
(10:10):
and stuff, because yeah, you go to somebody else's wedding
weekend and now everyone's like, not that it has to
be all about you, but like, why would you do
something to intentionally take the shine away from the person
whose events it is?
Speaker 6 (10:23):
Yeah, and I feel like I wouldn't even as somebody
who let's just say I'm the one getting proposed to
at someone's wedding. It's a weird sin Stephen's day or thing,
but like I would feel like this isn't even about
me either, because we're literally at someone's way.
Speaker 4 (10:34):
I'd say no, So both sides, I'd be like, you're rude,
I don't want to marry you.
Speaker 6 (10:37):
Yeah, I feel like both sides anyway, no matters really
out the door for everybody.
Speaker 1 (10:41):
I mean, I'm curious quickly eight five, five, five, nine
one three five did anyone do anything at anyone's wedding
that either blew you away or it was your wedding
that made you mad? I think I think the number
one thing I can remember if my sister's wedding was
and I God bless my parents because they paid for it,
but they insisted on having certain people there and there
were only certain of spots.
Speaker 3 (11:00):
There was a budget.
Speaker 1 (11:01):
It was you know, these are expensive whendings are EXPENSI
if you know that, no kidding, And there had to
be certain people there that my parents wanted because well,
they were paying for it.
Speaker 3 (11:07):
And then some of those people didn't show up.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
Oh wow, and so and now granted I don't remember
if any of my sister's friends didn't show up, but
there were definitely people that my sister wanted that there
was there wasn't any room for. And so I'm not
blaming on my parents because they were also upset because
they you know, there were empty seats at this thing.
They paid for it either way, so they weren't happy either.
But I mean, if you're going to RSVP yes to
a wedding, then you you should go. And if you're
(11:31):
not going to go, it should be very clear that
you can't go, and it better'd be a really good reason.
Speaker 2 (11:35):
Oh, like emergency, like your arm fell off. Yeah, your
arm fell off, fell out of nowhere? You got another arm?
What about hooking up.
Speaker 4 (11:44):
With someone in one of the wedding parties because that
takes the shine away from the couple over a wedding weekend.
Speaker 1 (11:48):
Are we cool with that? Oh?
Speaker 3 (11:50):
It does.
Speaker 2 (11:52):
No, I don't know.
Speaker 4 (11:52):
I'm kidding, but it does make everybody talk the next morning,
you know what I mean.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
And it's not about the bride and the groom. It's
a who hooked up with the grooms?
Speaker 1 (11:59):
Yeah, but I'm sides of that one where the breakfast
the Sunday morning brunch is a little awkward. Oh yeah,
either because I was. Because if you're a single person
and Camln you probably know this. I don't know, probably
enough you experienced this. Kiki of course is single, but
not really. Yeah, and it doesn't happen so much. I
guess it would, but it was more like when people's
first marriages, So when I was like late twenties, early thirties,
(12:20):
where people were still very single, and so you if
you were single and someone else was gonna be single
at the wedding then and you didn't know the person,
then you were getting teed up for this. Like every
wedding I went to when I was single in my
twenties and thirties, it was like, oh so and so
is gonna be there. You need to meet so and so.
You need meet so and so. You needed so and so.
All you guys are gonna love each other. She lives
in Denver, but you're gonna love her whatever. And then
(12:41):
you meet and then either you hit it off or
one of the other of you wants at hooking up
with someone else, right, and then the next morning someone's bummed.
It's either I'm the one who was like, oh, I
thought we were gonna mess around, but like, there's no guarantee.
We never met, you know, it was just the bride, like,
you know, gassing it up. Yeah, but she was probably
gassing it up times three to the other guys. And
then you know, or I'm the one who gets you know,
(13:02):
you know, we wanted up hooking up, but some other
guys like or girl or vice versa. So yeah, the
Sunday morning brunch could be a little awkward. Oh boy, Paul, Paul,
what have you done?
Speaker 3 (13:12):
What did you?
Speaker 7 (13:13):
Paul? Well, good morning, love you love your show.
Speaker 3 (13:17):
Thank you, love you too, Well, I love you too,
But what's this story? What did you do?
Speaker 7 (13:21):
So I actually got engaged at my sister's wedding.
Speaker 3 (13:27):
You better have a good reason for this, I do,
I do.
Speaker 7 (13:33):
I had planned it out with my sister and her approval,
and we uh, everyone we loved was there. Her family
was there, My family was there, so we were surrounded
by everybody we love. My sister thought it was a
great idea as well, and it was planned with DJ
and and so he gave me the mic and the
(13:56):
middle of the wedding after all the bestctivities, and I
pulled a chair out to the floor. I requested cool
to come and sit in the chair and got on
one knee and proposed right then and there.
Speaker 3 (14:13):
Bruh.
Speaker 1 (14:14):
I love you, Paul, but you you went ahead and
just hijacked the whole moment, like you went and did
a whole thing with a chair and an empty dance
floor and a microphone. I mean you, straight up, we
did a ninety degree turn on someone else's wedding.
Speaker 3 (14:29):
Now.
Speaker 1 (14:29):
I appreciate that you asked for permission, But do you
truly believe, Paul, that your sister was in a position
to tell you no, don't do that.
Speaker 7 (14:38):
She would have.
Speaker 2 (14:39):
Okay, okay, all right.
Speaker 7 (14:41):
It was something that my sister and I are very close,
and her husband had been They were high school sweethearts.
Speaker 3 (14:48):
So I mean you asked.
Speaker 1 (14:50):
You asked this person that we're talking about in the
story didn't ask, You did get permission.
Speaker 3 (14:54):
So and I see the logic.
Speaker 1 (14:56):
Everybody's there, you know, when you're going to get everybody
else there, unless it's a hollow day or something like that.
Speaker 3 (15:00):
So I see, I see where you're going. And it
was nice of you to ask for permission. But I
don't know that.
Speaker 1 (15:05):
I think your sister is a very nice person because
I think there are some people out there that would
have said no, not today.
Speaker 7 (15:11):
You know, yes, absolutely, When I said I do agree
with that, I well, you asked. I did ask. And
it wasn't like I said, hey, you know what can
I do this? It was a mutual conversation of sharing
and I talked about her about proposing and when and
(15:34):
a bad idea came up. Is totally supportive and then
we you know, talkedor kerb soon to be a husband
at that time, and they all thought it was a
good idea.
Speaker 1 (15:47):
All right, well you you ran you ran it by
it and it's good. Paul, Hey, thanks for Sarah Man.
Speaker 3 (15:51):
Have a good day. You right, you too?
Speaker 1 (15:54):
Man?
Speaker 3 (15:55):
Oh this is good. Hey, Shawnie. Hello, what your mom did?
Speaker 6 (16:01):
What?
Speaker 3 (16:02):
This is your wedding?
Speaker 8 (16:04):
Yeah, so this is my wedding. My mom had been
having an affair. Oh, and decided to tell her husband
at my wedding that she had been having the affair.
And not only that, but she invited her a fair partner.
Speaker 2 (16:16):
To my wedding.
Speaker 3 (16:18):
A fair partner is a very nice way of saying.
This is classic. You're a partner in the affair. Wow. Wow,
this all happened.
Speaker 8 (16:28):
We ended up having to call the police because who
was flying? Yeah, it was it was a whole It
was crazy.
Speaker 3 (16:36):
I heard.
Speaker 2 (16:37):
That's good luck though, if that happens on your wedding day.
So your guys, wow, oh no, have.
Speaker 3 (16:41):
You forgiven your mom for this?
Speaker 1 (16:43):
Like?
Speaker 3 (16:43):
Have you have you guys discussed? Are you talking? Are
you over it?
Speaker 6 (16:46):
Like?
Speaker 3 (16:46):
How are you feeling? It's complicated?
Speaker 1 (16:52):
Yeah, I would imagine I would have that story alone.
Gives me a snapshot about what that relationship might look like.
And and and I you know, I hate to but
who who that relationship might be mostly about? I feel
like mom might be a person who's a lot about Mom.
Is that is that accurate?
Speaker 3 (17:08):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (17:08):
She's very nurse Ah yes, that's the worst.
Speaker 1 (17:11):
Yeah, you know, I'm not a licensed psychologist, but I
can spot one when I hear it. Thank you, Johanny,
you have a good day.
Speaker 8 (17:18):
You too, Thank you.
Speaker 3 (17:19):
Oh my god, that is amazing. What is wrong with you?
Speaker 2 (17:22):
I betrayal your own mom?
Speaker 7 (17:24):
What is wrong with you?
Speaker 1 (17:25):
And then my second wedding story in the segment, I
have questions about this too, because honestly, I want to
know who this really looks worse on. But this was
viral last week, the last week on TikTok. But during
a wedding reception, a groom shot guess by revealing that
his bride had cheated on him with his best man.
Speaker 3 (17:44):
Now this we find out this is a bit. It
still isn't whatever.
Speaker 1 (17:47):
But the father of the bride concluded his speech at
the wedding, the groom stood up and asked attendees to
open envelopes placed on their tables. Inside were photos exposing
the affair that this guy's wife was having with the
best man. He then announced he was leaving, dropped the mic,
and his entire family walked out with him. The bride's family,
(18:10):
who had funded the wedding, was left to deal with
the aftermath. This was shared on a UK podcast, The
Unfiltered Bride in a sense gone viral.
Speaker 3 (18:19):
Now here's my thing. Did he marry her?
Speaker 1 (18:21):
So he went through with the actual ceremony and then
or did he do this in front of everybody like
on the altar? Because it was he said the bride.
The father of the bride had a speech that usually
happens after you get married, right, So he went through
with the ceremony.
Speaker 3 (18:34):
So he married her.
Speaker 1 (18:35):
Oh and then I guess you can get an annulment.
But like, this was obviously you know, there was forethought here.
This was planned. I mean somebody went to FedEx Kinko's
and got everything printed out and put it all your
envelopes on the tables and stuff, and then and the
family talked about this. So my thing is, yeah, I mean,
of course, you have every right to be scorned and
angry that you're being cheated on with your presumably best
(18:57):
friend and your wife and this wedding is happening in
the whole, But like, does it make you look worse
as the person who scorned to make everybody come to
this wedding and then plan this big production.
Speaker 2 (19:09):
Oh I love this too.
Speaker 5 (19:10):
I think he this is chef's kiss. This is how
you expose somebody, and you build it all up. You
have this big ceremony, you go into the reception and
then boom, and then you drop the mic and walk away.
I think he did a phenomenal job.
Speaker 1 (19:23):
Now, except for the story that I would have had
for the show. I mean, if you made me fly
across the country for this, I'd have been pissed. Really,
So wait a minute. You knew a week ago when
you were at you know, at Kinko's Copies that's even
a thing anymore. At the photoshop put you know whatever,
you were in there, the copying stuff and making envelopes
of things.
Speaker 3 (19:40):
You knew that.
Speaker 1 (19:41):
And I still had to fly across the country to Tuscaloosa,
you know, to go to your wedding, only for you
to know this wasn't gonna happen to be a big
production walk out. I mean, yeah, I guess if your
team groomed, then you're gonna have a great night at
the bar later. Yes, and it's a good story, but
who does this actually make look worse though? I mean,
of course it's the cheater, But then this is pretty
like I don't know this is like, this is not
(20:04):
the best look like you look. You look like mad
mad mad.
Speaker 2 (20:09):
Like like like patty mad, but I am petty.
Speaker 1 (20:11):
Yeah, but how about just cancel the wedding, keep the
money and then put on the wedding website these pictures
and then for the link to everybody. So it's time saving,
it's cost effective, and you're accomplishing the same thing. So
you would have if this happened, and God forbid, Big
Tim were this guy, you would we'd all go to
your wedding. We'd have the flowers and the you know,
we'd have the whole thing and catering and the bar,
(20:33):
and we'd have the DJ there, the whole thing. Oh yes,
and then you'd blow it up.
Speaker 5 (20:38):
I would blow it up, Yes, yes, because it just
makes it that more dramatic. Everybody's in the same room,
everybody's reacting at the same time. The bride is stunned,
the best man is stunned, everybody that needs.
Speaker 2 (20:52):
To be this is this is phenomenal. I love it.
I did a slide show. I would have the power
point pria whatever you need.
Speaker 6 (21:02):
Really yeah, yeah, Because I like to embarrassed people that
deserve to be embarrassed.
Speaker 2 (21:06):
I really I really enjoy that, like thoroughly, especially if
you hurt me in that way.
Speaker 6 (21:11):
I mean, I'm marrying you, and it's it's my best
friend and my husband right in my scenario like creeping
around like yeah, that hurts, and we're both gonna be
hurt together.
Speaker 2 (21:19):
I know it's not great. My therapist doesn't like, let
I do that, But if I'm hurt, you're gonna be.
Speaker 3 (21:22):
Hurt too, oh neat Well, okay, yeah, keeping very pretty.
Keep that.
Speaker 2 (21:28):
I'm working on it.
Speaker 1 (21:29):
Well, And I guess you paid for everything, so like
you know, I mean, you're committed. I get I suppose,
but again, you know, if I had a flight of
Dallas for this.
Speaker 2 (21:40):
Right right, you would love this.
Speaker 3 (21:41):
This is the best story ever, I guess.
Speaker 5 (21:44):
But I you know, I can't pay for this type
of entertainment, Like there's no movie that would entertain you
more than being at a wedding opening up an envelope
and seeing the groom or the bride with somebody else.
Speaker 1 (21:54):
You're like what And I'm not saying it's right, but
I sometimes I think the petty person winds up looking dumber,
looking a little foolish, Like so you you took all
that time and energy to come.
Speaker 3 (22:04):
Up with your with your response.
Speaker 1 (22:05):
The best response probably would have been just to embarrass
them and then just bounce. But like you thought about it, man,
you stewed on it. Yes, you gotta cheated on me exactly.
Speaker 3 (22:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (22:15):
Well, my guess idline Biggest Stories of the Day next
the Fred Show is on Fred's Biggest Stories of the Day.
Somebody texted, Fred, you know you would love the scenario
because you'd be able to leave early to work on
another Lego set. You know what, I haven't put together
a Lego set in many weeks. Okay, now the one
(22:36):
I want comes out today, but the issue ish, Yeah,
it's a new.
Speaker 3 (22:39):
Release, it's dropping today. Okay.
Speaker 1 (22:41):
I think there's already lines around the Lego store. I
think it's already around the building. But it's that seven
forty seven that carries the space ship.
Speaker 4 (22:49):
Ah.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
Yes, and you get to build a spaceship and the
seven forty seven. Here's the problem. It's big, and I
don't know where the hell i'd put this. So I'm
not at the point yet where I'm gonna do like
the eight year old's bedroom where I hang it from
the ceiling, Like I'm not.
Speaker 3 (23:05):
We're not there yet. I mean we're close.
Speaker 2 (23:07):
I mean, you have a car bed, so we're going.
Speaker 7 (23:09):
No, No, I know.
Speaker 3 (23:10):
I have the world's only King sites Water car bed. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (23:13):
I had to have it made out of two children's
beds because they don't, you know, typically make them for
grown ups. But it's it's it's surreal with crowd blazer. Yeah,
it has the steering wheel and everything. Yeah, it lights upbeat.
Speaker 3 (23:24):
Yeah, it's cool.
Speaker 2 (23:25):
I love that.
Speaker 1 (23:25):
Yeah. No, Caitlin loved it when she saw it. She
didn't of course, wasn't there for the entertainment purposes. Well,
I mean you've seen it obviously, because you're telling people
about it. Yeah, I'm surprised that doesn't show up in
any of these message boards the car bed. I do
make everyone sign a non disclosure though when they come
to my house, because what I don't need them telling
people is about the seven forty seven spaceship legos in
the car beds.
Speaker 2 (23:46):
The t people want to spill on you, like he
has like children stuffed animals in there.
Speaker 3 (23:52):
Yeah, that's true, it's I have doctor Susard art Wall.
I No, it's absolutely true.
Speaker 1 (23:58):
It's absolutely true, And people like sometimes I'll do zoom
calls and the clients or whatever.
Speaker 3 (24:02):
It'll be like, oh, you have kids. I'm like no, no,
it's all mine, it's all mine.
Speaker 1 (24:07):
Yeah. Yeah, I've thought long and hard about having people
signed nondisclosures when they come to my house. And I
talked to my attorney, I'm like, hey, Mike, like, draw
me up a non disclosure. It's like it would never
hold up. I'm like no, but that's not the point.
The point is the lure of people coming over, and
I may as soon as they walk in, you have
to sign this waiver, this non disclosure, that nothing that
you see here.
Speaker 3 (24:25):
Can you ever discuss what.
Speaker 2 (24:27):
Did Jason and I signed then when we were over?
Speaker 3 (24:29):
Oh that was all your money over to me? Oh god.
Speaker 1 (24:31):
Yeah. That's the problem is Jason has mostly debts, so
that really didn't work out well for me.
Speaker 3 (24:36):
You're in the rears now. Yeah. My credit score went
way down because I mean the rears what it's called.
You're below zero, you're in the rears.
Speaker 1 (24:48):
I don't Jason. I know you'd like me to be
in the rear, but I love you so much, but
not that much. There is a line, there is, and
there isn't. You're trying to get in that racecar bed
so bad. And the fact that it's a bunk bed
is also wild wild a king sized race car bunk water.
Speaker 2 (25:12):
It's one of one.
Speaker 1 (25:13):
They have the thing custom made it. It was like
forty seven thousand dollars but comfortable. No, it's really cool.
Speaker 7 (25:20):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (25:21):
Whoever's on the bottom bunk is just I'm terrified for
them for their locks.
Speaker 2 (25:26):
Yeah, it's double car back, No.
Speaker 1 (25:27):
It is, it is.
Speaker 3 (25:29):
It's really cool.
Speaker 1 (25:30):
Actually, it sounds really cool and I might actually look
into that there, but I wouldn't go racecard go airplane.
Speaker 3 (25:37):
Zoomoo obviously zoom zoom.
Speaker 1 (25:40):
Yeah, but can you imagine, like if that would be
the story, it would be like, Dude, I went to
his house, I had to sign this this thing, and
they'd be, well, what happened in there? And I can't
tell you, But nothing would happen, Like there's I am vanilla,
Like nothing would happen. You'd come over, we'd, you know,
I don't know, sit there. Yeah, we'd make love for
the first time.
Speaker 3 (25:58):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (25:59):
Then I'm thinking about airplane bed, but I anything that
happens when someone sign an NBA just comes out anyway,
it's just later.
Speaker 3 (26:05):
That's true, right, I.
Speaker 1 (26:09):
Have nothing to hide, So it would be the most
boring NDIA ever. But it would just be the story
that like, yeah, I don't know, I made maybe sign
some stuff like well, what did you do? I can't
say nothing. We didn't do anything. We watched House Hunters International. Yes,
someone said I'm stuck on Kaylan being Kaylen's not single.
She was at one time single, but not with me.
(26:31):
All right, headlines over then, guys, this is this is
serious news is Starbucks today? We have a serious issue
at Starbucks. But over a thousand Starbucks baristas at seventy
five US stories went on strike starting Sunday. You want
to why they don't like the new dress code. I've
heard about this since the rules, which kicked in on
Monday said barisas have to wear solid black shirts and khaki,
(26:52):
black or blue denim pants. How dare they before they
could wear darker colors and patterned shirts. Not anymore, though,
uh and the union their Workers United says that the
change is too strict and feels disrespectful, especially when the
company didn't run it by them first. I'm sorry, guys,
(27:13):
I am sorry, but there are people fighting for like
equal treatment in workplaces and equal pay and ethical treatment.
Speaker 2 (27:22):
Every day and all kinds of things like real lifestuff.
Speaker 1 (27:28):
And you're mad because you have to wear a black
shirt and a choice of different jeans. Black pants and
jeans is your uniform? You guys, weird uniforms of my
previous jobs died for now. Boris is geting two free
branded T shirts, but many are upset that they're losing
their personal style. The union hints more walkouts if things
don't change. Starbucks says it's working to fix the issues
(27:51):
and keep stores running. The strike has spark talk online,
some calling the dress code unfair.
Speaker 2 (27:56):
Oh gracious, you guys, you know you know what stand Hell, yeah,
of course you do. You never mind, No, I don't.
Speaker 6 (28:07):
Buy today if you guys, you guys, Hey, they stand
for something, Okay. If you don't stand for something, you
stand for nothing of anything.
Speaker 5 (28:17):
You guys don't want me to learn a different language
to make a coffee drink? And I can't come in here,
and where would I want to wear?
Speaker 3 (28:23):
What different language am I making?
Speaker 7 (28:25):
You?
Speaker 2 (28:25):
Vincey and Italian?
Speaker 1 (28:31):
But whoever just said that? Like if I work at
Jiffy Lube, I have to wear the Jiffy Lube uniform.
Speaker 2 (28:35):
Yes, yes, I have benards.
Speaker 1 (28:36):
I had to wear an apron and a vest and
a tape measure on my belty wanted to do they
run that by you for something.
Speaker 2 (28:43):
They were like, here's your blue vest and your tape measure.
Speaker 3 (28:46):
Don't let me. I think they're protests. There are real problems.
Speaker 1 (28:50):
And I also know that like Starbucks, folks have dealt
with real problems, like they're there.
Speaker 3 (28:54):
They have issues with pay and all kinds of and whatever.
Speaker 1 (28:56):
You can say you agree to disagree with that, but like,
that's one thing, but we are we are willing to
lose our jobs because I can't wear my plaid shirt anymore. Guys, guys,
how many pieces of flair are you wearing? Is what
I want to listen.
Speaker 2 (29:15):
I need to get out there and tell people how
good my style is.
Speaker 3 (29:21):
If you want to do the bare minimum that this
is an office space. You remember that.
Speaker 1 (29:24):
And by the way, do you know the guy who
is the manager in that scene? And you're all looking
at me like you didn't see that movie, But the
manager of the scene is the voice of Beavis and
butt Head whatever his name is. That guy plays both
I think he's both I'm trying to remember his name.
Is it someone will text it to me, but he
he is the actor who is the manager, saying to
(29:46):
Jennifer Aniston, who's in that movie, which is still shocking
to me, as she's in office space when when when
she works at the Flingers I believe it's called or
she works at one of like it like a Chili's knockoff,
and and they get into a debate about how many
little pins she has on her apron and he's like,
you know, I need you to wear thirteen peece at
the Flair and if you want to.
Speaker 3 (30:04):
Do the bare minimum, you know that's a t Yeah,
And people are like, what is this scene?
Speaker 1 (30:09):
Then? Is it Mike Judge, Mike Judge, Yeah, he is
that he is the manager in that scene. There's a
little fun fact.
Speaker 3 (30:14):
For you guys. Come on, come on on this one.
Speaker 2 (30:16):
Yeah, no, it is, come on.
Speaker 3 (30:17):
I'm sorry, but you know.
Speaker 1 (30:21):
Exactly, with all with all due respect to these people
who I don't know, the company doesn't actually Starbucks doesn't
actually have to ask you if it's okay for them
to change their uniform policy, especially when we're talking about
a T shirt and jeans for them, honestly, and I
do think sometimes people forget that, like and if it's
that bad, with all due respect, quit And I mean
(30:43):
you might say it's not that easy, but if you're
that mad about the black T shirt that's free and
the jeans, then just maybe just go work at Pete's
or something.
Speaker 7 (30:51):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (30:52):
And there's so many dunk protests in this That's what
I'm saying. There are much bigger issues. Yes, I've read
about much bigger issues, So like, let's focus on that,
because then when you're doing this too, it takes away
from some of the things like equality and healthcare and
some of the other things I think have been concerns.
And for one K and you know, college reimbursement and
(31:15):
things that I know that they you know, people have.
Speaker 3 (31:16):
Been asking for.
Speaker 6 (31:17):
Yeah, I can actually benefit from it would help a
lot of people, not their plaid shirts or whatever.
Speaker 1 (31:22):
With all due respect, I'll say it for the fifth time,
like I'm not you know, I don't fit in my
drink when I go there. So also big news today
guys Max, you know Max, and I remember why I
said this when they did this. Max is the app
HBO and whatever They're going back to HBO Max.
Speaker 2 (31:42):
Stop it.
Speaker 4 (31:43):
Yeah, that was one of the weirdest, honest things today SIBO, Like,
you may not.
Speaker 1 (31:48):
Know what HBO stands for Home Box Office, but everybody
knows that logo. Everybody knows HBO means cable movies. Everybody.
Everybody knows that. Yes, it is one of the most
famous logos. And and you know initials. Ever, but lo,
let's not let's start something totally new after we've built
this brand for forty or fifty years whatever it is.
(32:09):
But Warner Brothers Discovery is changing their name. Their mind
about Max's name. The company is reverting now to HBO Max.
The president said, the brand that represents the highest quality
in media will amplify the uniqueness that subscribers can expect.
Speaker 3 (32:23):
So good, I'm I'm glad. I'm glad.
Speaker 1 (32:25):
We probably had focus groups about that, probably millions of
dollars were spent a lot of meetings.
Speaker 2 (32:29):
They made a whole new app. I had to get
the Max there.
Speaker 1 (32:31):
Oh yeah, no, the other app doesn't. It didn't work,
and I wanted to move another app. So what are
we gonna move again?
Speaker 2 (32:37):
I think so probably back? Come on, I hate it,
not even redesign, just a whole new app, A whole
new app.
Speaker 1 (32:42):
Girl. Oh yeah, the other one just didn't work anymore.
That was another thing. It's like, why don't you just
change the name of the existing app, But no, I
had to. I had to go download another app and
then delete that one because it didn't work anymore. Right,
and now we're going back. But whoever was in charge
of that may not be working there anymore, because we're talking.
I mean truly that if I know anything about how
these media companies work, they spent millions of dollars trying to.
Speaker 3 (33:04):
Figure this out. Guys, I don't know, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (33:06):
You know what, put it out in the field, get
it out of the field, and they spent millions of
dollars and had consultants come in. You know, it's crazy.
Oh oh yeah, oh yeah, there was a oh yeah,
there was a meeting about a meeting.
Speaker 8 (33:18):
You know that.
Speaker 3 (33:20):
You absolutely know about the what do they call that?
Speaker 1 (33:23):
One of those guys called Satcom and prime Con and
top com. You know, this company has all these little
like groups within groups'cary, you know what I'm talking about?
Speaker 3 (33:34):
What's the top one called?
Speaker 1 (33:36):
I forget what it is it's like you're not well,
we're not welcome in that meeting, like you have to
do it's a special Yeah, it's a special handshake, and
there's an initiation that happens in the dark, and they
wear like you know, you have to be anointed.
Speaker 3 (33:48):
Yeah, it's weird.
Speaker 1 (33:49):
It's weird. And then quickly with headlines here. A recent
survey reveals it ninety percent of dog owners considered their
pup's health as important or more so than their own.
Speaker 3 (33:58):
I believe that.
Speaker 1 (33:59):
I believe totally. You think, honestly, Jason, you're Corgi's. If
it came down to a medical procedure that would save
your Corky's life or something that wouldn't necessarily save your life,
but like that you could put off, but you'd be
in pain, you'd go for the corgi.
Speaker 3 (34:12):
Oh one percent. So would my mom. So would you,
So would you?
Speaker 1 (34:16):
Everybody would everybody would eleanor Eloise, Oliver and Owen. Old
fashioned baby names are back. That's trending today. Oh and
along the lines of the first story, But heads up
emoji enthusiasts the classic smiley face emoji. It's a smiley face, right,
the basic smiley face yellow black smile. You know the
(34:38):
one gen Z is not receiving it the way that
you'd like them to. According to a recent report, younger
folks are interpreting the smiley not as a friendly gesture
but as passive, aggressive, and sarcastic. One gen Z person
described it as a side eye smile, suggesting it's dismissive
and not delightful. The shift titans a broader generational divide
(35:02):
and digital communication. Uh and then apparently what we think
the meaning of the emoji is because it's a smile.
So I don't know how you might get confused about that.
But that doesn't mean that to certain people. So now
I can't send you a smiley face meaning a smile
without someone second guessing it.
Speaker 2 (35:19):
Do you know where your emojis are on your phone?
Because you don't, you don't use them.
Speaker 1 (35:23):
I'm vaguely familiar, you know, I'm vaguely familiar. Okay, yeah,
not a big emoji guy. No, I'm a grown man too,
So there's that. But I said smiley yesterday, But it
wasn't meant to be this smiley.
Speaker 3 (35:34):
It was meant to be like, uh, this is happening
even though we don't.
Speaker 1 (35:37):
Want it to smiley face like it was like, I guess,
I don't I must have been like high or something,
because I don't remember what's happening that I don't want
to happen.
Speaker 3 (35:46):
But because anyway, I found I found that very passive
aggressive of you.
Speaker 7 (35:50):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (35:52):
Actually, I found that smiley face you sent me mean
and disrespectful. It was like, come on again for one
more time this morning in headlights. Come on, I can't
send you a smiley face without getting credit for a smile.
Speaker 3 (36:03):
We're gonna second guess that to send me.
Speaker 2 (36:05):
The smile with the little heart, like the little like
you like a kiss or.
Speaker 1 (36:09):
Like, okay, I send you a kiss in my coworker,
that means I'm trying to make out with you. I
wind up an HR and I get sued, and I
don't have a career, and I wind up living in Florida.
Speaker 2 (36:17):
Somewhere without a job because of a kissy face.
Speaker 5 (36:21):
You know what I mean, Like the little emoji with
the little heart next to it, Like I'm.
Speaker 3 (36:24):
Not I can't send the hearts of my coworker.
Speaker 2 (36:26):
Will send me the smile with the little hands.
Speaker 3 (36:29):
So that said, I know that I think that's groppy.
Speaker 2 (36:31):
Oh yeah, very much. I want to touch your.
Speaker 3 (36:34):
Very Those are Tata hands, you kid, you can't miss them.
Everybody knows this is growth. I can't do that.
Speaker 1 (36:44):
Bring flowers to someone Day and Peace Officers Memorial Day,
which pays tribute to local, state, and federal law enforcement
officers who have made the ultimate sacrifice or been injured
in the line of duty. We'll get to the entertainment report,
but it's going to be in about twenty minutes.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
