Good morning went on three five Kiss at M Chicago's
number one in music station.
Speaker 1 (00:32):
So people are texting like, you guys must have gotten
some sleep.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
I'm like, I don't know, because this is the kind
of the last couple of days of the kind of
silly shows where we clearly haven't had sleep in a
long time now, So I don't know. And then the
ones that people seem to like the most, the ones
that have not a whole lot of directions, are the
ones that people seem to like the most. But no,
not a lot of sleep around here, but it's all good,
a little more than the night before. And then Jason
(00:54):
you you jump on a plane and head right to New.
Speaker 1 (00:57):
York, New York on Friday. Yeah, that's after our radios
onto tomorrow. So yeah, it's a busy, busy time.
Speaker 2 (01:02):
Why Jason, do we have to do everything in the
last ten days of the year.
Speaker 1 (01:06):
Can we space this stuff out a little bit?
Speaker 2 (01:07):
You know? Can we do a couple of little things,
a couple little things maybe I don't know, like in June,
you know, maybe like like April. We seem to do
everything towards the end of the year. For the text
that said what Tupac book did?
Speaker 1 (01:20):
I read?
Speaker 2 (01:20):
It's I can't remember the full title, but it's by
Jeff Pearlman. It just came out a couple of weeks ago.
Try to get Jeff on the show. He said he
would come, and then I can't. He's ghosting me now.
But it's actually a very good book. He did a
really good job, and I learned a lot about Tupac
I didn't know. But yeah, it's wherever books you're sold
is where you can find it. I think I got
(01:41):
mine at Barnes and Noble. No, they were sold out.
That's the biggest bummer to me is I try and
go to the bookstore and I try and buy an
actual book and then they're like, yeah, we don't have it. Great,
so I'll just get on Amazon. Then like I'm trying.
I'm trying over here, guys, I'm trying to keep you
all open.

Search for the Fred Show on demand on the iHeart
app new tab. It's the highlightstab behind the scenes content.
I have no idea where you're getting all of these
different pieces of content. But I used to think in
(03:35):
the commercial breaks I was safe. Now I don't think so,
because we're having to really pull from everywhere. So I
gotta stop picking my nose. Yes, like the other day
I was yesterday, I was watching a tiktaci took. I
like tiktaks, They're great. The only problem I had with
Tiktaks is that the box is a little awkward to
put in your pocket and then they shake, Yeah, and
(03:56):
that's the thing. I like them though. Same with Altoy's,
like the little Altoyd thing. They had them in my
pocket for jingle Ball like that they'd shake and it's
kind of weird and it's a weird shape. You're we
But I was messing with my hat and like scratching
my nose the entire video because I forget there's a
camera right there, because well, that's sort of not what
we signed up for with me. We signed up for
the radio station, so you have to see it. But

Speaker 1 (04:48):
What are you working on?
Speaker 6 (04:49):
K the creator of open ai, said, one of the
craziest things that I have heard someone say, great, yeah.
Speaker 2 (04:56):
He's the guy who started it, is saying things that
like yeah, yeah, okay, we'll get to that.
Speaker 5 (05:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
They talk better than they say. These are the radio
blogs on the Fred Show.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
Also forty minutes commercial free Fred Show. You don't have
to go anywhere. Kaylen's got to blog our audio journals go.
Speaker 6 (05:15):
Thank you, dear blog. So hit us up if you
can relate to this. But I just feel like our grandparents' generation,
like they were built different in terms of keeping like
families together and being the matriarchs.
Speaker 1 (05:30):
It's just, yeah, they were tougher for people than we
are tougher.
Speaker 7 (05:33):
They're built different.
Speaker 6 (05:34):
They had different I don't know if it's values or
like they just kept kind of the family together, right,
and so they put.
Speaker 1 (05:41):
Up with more.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
Yeah, I think I think their level of commitment and
their toleration of things that now would be divorceable offenses
correct after twenty minutes, Yeah, that.
Speaker 6 (05:51):
Kind of things undiagnosed mentally ill, you know, I feel for.
Speaker 1 (05:56):
That I had to repress.
Speaker 2 (05:57):
I mean, there was good and bad that cambris, you.
Speaker 6 (05:59):
Know, but you know I used to look at my
grandma and be like, like, you don't even know what's going,
you know whatever.
Speaker 7 (06:04):
Anyways, so I digress.
Speaker 6 (06:06):
But on my mom's side, we unfortunately lost my My
mom has two sisters, so three girls, both of my
grandparents within a short period of time. And their house
was kind of like the house that kept everything together,
you know, even if you weren't close with certain family members,
you'd still see them whatever. So once we lost them,
you know, it was kind of we were looking to
(06:28):
my parents' generation to kind of like keep things together,
and everyone's busy. It was hard to lose their parents.
So they're not really doing it, and not for bad reason.
It's just it's a lot. Life is a lot. So
there's six of us cousins and we have kind of
taken it upon ourselves to like try and recreate some
of those traditions.
Speaker 7 (06:47):
We live in different places.
Speaker 6 (06:49):
And it's not as easy as it looked, you know
what I mean, because it'll be like each holiday will
be like, oh, who wants to have people over?
Speaker 7 (06:55):
I don't feel like doing it. I don't feel like
doing it.
Speaker 6 (06:57):
So we're we have this cousin's group checks and we
are very much trying to take this responsibility on one
thing that we did together, which would be your absolute nightmare, Fred,
But we did a what it's called a houseboat on
Lake Cumberland. Wait, yes, it was all fair body and
a body of water.
Speaker 7 (07:16):
Nope, big old boat.
Speaker 1 (07:17):
There was like a hot time and it's fly.
Speaker 6 (07:21):
Yeah, and we all did it together and it was
so fun and so were That is one of the
things that we are trying to plan and do. My
sister was a whole ass baby when we did that trip,
so she never got to experience it. And I do
feel like also the babies of the family, Kiki, you
may be able to relate like sometimes like the older ones,
like they grew up in the family was still fun
and still had their stamina. And by the baby, it's like,
(07:42):
you know, we don't feel like putting stuff together. You
missed out on all the trips and all the memories.
So we're trying to do all this and it's not
as easy as it looks. And I just don't know
if any of our listeners feel like, you know, okay,
we we lost the center point, either the house or
the people that kept everything together and how they're working
to either make nutrient or bring it together, because you know,
it's sad to watch it go away.
Speaker 1 (08:04):
It's amazing.
Speaker 2 (08:04):
Whether it's family or friends, as people get older, it's
very difficult to sort of keep relationships as strong as
they once were. Yeah, and proximity is a big deal,
even if you're in the same city. Like a lot
of I don't have cousins, but like my close friends,
over the years, they've their lives have change, they've had
kids and gotten married, and they're doing different things that
I'm doing, and there's no lack of love. But they
(08:26):
live in the suburbs and they get together over things
that have to do with kids, and they don't include
me in that stuff necessarily because well, they don't think
i'd want to go, because I don't necessarily want to
watch their kids run around like a play place or whatever.
But I would because But whether it's family or friends,
like it's just people spread out and there's no lack
of love there. But it's like it happens probably once
a month where I reconnect with someone at least briefly
(08:47):
from the past, and it's like, why don't we talk
more often? I don't know, why don't we hang out?
I don't know, let's do it. And then another year
goes by, and so you have to work at stuff like.
Speaker 7 (08:55):
That, and it's a lot of work, you know.
Speaker 6 (08:58):
So if you're going through the same thing, I feel you.
And if you have any ideas, you know, for how
to keep the family and traditions together, shoot on my
wist I want to do.
Speaker 2 (09:07):
I'm going to rent a houseboat and put all my
buddies and their wives on the boat.
Speaker 1 (09:11):
But then I'm going to have a cabin.
Speaker 2 (09:12):
So we docked there, but then at the nighttime, we
just set that boat out to the middle of the
lake or vice versa, whatever, as long as there's a
place for or maybe there's a little dinghy attached to it,
and I row myself to the days in on the dock.
Speaker 7 (09:26):
You know what I'm saying that, Yeah, that's a great one.
Speaker 3 (09:29):
I married to a family like this Scalen so with
the like the cousins thing and the closeness. So Hobby
comes from a really big family and there's like a
lot of cousins. Ray and then like you're you're right,
It's like the older crew, then the baby crew who
are like the twenty year old now they did not
experience from the stories that I've heard of, like all
to get together is the family parties.
Speaker 7 (09:47):
Even true it was late, it sounds like I mean,
I missed the jukes that wasn't there.
Speaker 3 (09:51):
But I feel like now Hobby is trying to be
that glue because his father is so his father is
kind of the glue after the parents, the grandparents passed away.
I think two thousand nineteen, maybe he's trying to be
the glue because one day, you know, his father won't
be able to anymore either. But it's hard work even
just hosting, entertaining all of that, Like I don't know
how people do that so.
Speaker 6 (10:11):
That it might be your house and that's that's a
lot of work. But it's also such a beautiful thing.
Speaker 7 (10:15):
And I love saying that.
Speaker 3 (10:16):
Because I want my daughter and that I have a baby,
I want her to be like with the cousins and
the crew.
Speaker 2 (10:20):
Yes, we also just a is an offshoot speaking of
entertaining at your house, can we talk about something that
just went it just it was it came and went
off the air. But you are looking to sort of
develop your backyard a little bit, you know, because you
want to have people over to the house. And Hobby's
idea was for this kind of entertainment, so that cousins
(10:41):
can come over.
Speaker 1 (10:41):
Whatever.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
Hobby's idea was to put a porta potty in the
backyard of your home.
Speaker 7 (10:47):
He was very serious about this, So let's not laugh at.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
The actual porta potty. Yeah, your backyard permanent inside.
Speaker 7 (10:53):
I don't care.
Speaker 1 (10:53):
That would just stay there all the time.
Speaker 7 (10:55):
He was serious, and he was so serious.
Speaker 3 (10:57):
He said, you know, people don't have to go inside,
then they gives use the port of pot I said, sir,
are you sick?
Speaker 7 (11:01):
Like what are you talking about?
Speaker 3 (11:03):
I want to see you tell my mother or your
mother to use the bathroom to go crap in the
in the in the pot like go.
Speaker 7 (11:09):
I would love to see that happen.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
There's a lot I'd like to unpack about that, but
I like that. Like if you go to rather if you.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
Like an event like something whatever, and and they just
aren't enough bathrooms for the mass public that shows up, okay, fine,
Like I go to a border body if you have to,
Oh my god, it's the worst possible thing. Like I
try everything not to have to do it, but I'll
go pee in there whatever. I don't know who peed
before me or after me?
Speaker 1 (11:32):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
But can you imagine like crapping on top of your
relatives crap all day?
Speaker 1 (11:36):
You know what I mean.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
I'm not trying to be gross, but like I can
see everybody who's used that. These are people I know.
Get I'm in there following people I know, and we're
just it's just it's a disgusting thing.
Speaker 7 (11:48):
It's should we have plumbing at home?
Speaker 5 (11:50):
I don't know why?
Speaker 1 (11:52):
When did you guys get that?
Speaker 3 (11:53):
That's cool?
Speaker 1 (11:54):
Little bit? Congratulations?
Speaker 2 (11:57):
It's ever been left waiting by the phone. It's the
Fredshell Meg, Good morning, welcome to the program.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
How are you?
Speaker 5 (12:07):
Hi? Good morning, I'm good.
Speaker 7 (12:09):
How are you?
Speaker 1 (12:10):
J and all right? What's going on with this guy? Seth?
Speaker 2 (12:12):
This is of course waiting by the phone. We're trying
to figure out if you've been ghosted. It feels like
you've been ghosted. You think I got to know how
you met, about any dates that you've been on, and
then where things are now.
Speaker 5 (12:23):
Sure, I honestly think this is probably some sort of
weird misunderstanding. So I'm hoping we can work it out.
I met Seth on Hinge and he's a really great guy.
We had a lot in common and we just hit
it off. We went on two dates. They were great,
Like I had the They're probably the best dates I've
ever been on, Like I had the best time. I
really felt connected to him, Like it just felt like
(12:45):
we were on the same page. So I definitely expected
to have a third date. But he like disappeared. So
I don't know. It feels like something. It just doesn't
make sense to me. It feels like something must have happened,
and like we've got to reconnect because I can't imagine
that I'm actually ghosted from someone that I connected that
well with.
Speaker 2 (13:05):
Interesting, So this is a two date ghost. We hear
a lot about one date, and then you don't hear
from the person.
Speaker 1 (13:11):
Wish I am.
Speaker 2 (13:12):
We've had this debate many times, whether you really owe
somebody anything after a first date, Like do I really
need to call you after one date and explain to
you why I don't like you? Like I don't know,
but two dates, maybe three, I don't know. But here
you are really confused because you like this guy and
you don't see a problem, and then he goes away
and you can't get a hold of him, and it's
like that, hold on a minute, Well we on two
(13:33):
different dates or you know what happened?
Speaker 5 (13:35):
Yeah, it just doesn't make sense to me, Like I said, like,
these are the best dates I've probably ever been on.
So it's clear to me that he didn't call, he
didn't reach out like I tried texting him, nothing like.
It just doesn't I don't know, like what happened.
Speaker 8 (13:48):
It went so well, I don't understand.
Speaker 2 (13:50):
Okay, Well that's where we come in. We're going to
play a song. Come back, call Seth. You'll be on
the phone. We're going to ask these questions on your behalf.
And the hope is always is that we can straighten
things out and set you guys up on another date
and pay for that.
Speaker 8 (14:01):
All right, I look forward to that.
Speaker 5 (14:03):
Thank you so much.
Speaker 1 (14:04):
Hey Meg, Hey, welcome back. Let's call Seth.
Speaker 2 (14:07):
You guys actually went on two dates and you felt
like both dates went really well. I believe that, you said.
I want to make sure I get this right. These
were the best two dates that you've ever been on.
Speaker 5 (14:16):
Yes, they really were.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
Which is interesting because you go from two of the
best dates ever and not hearing from this guy.
Speaker 1 (14:21):
So where is the disconnect?
Speaker 9 (14:22):
Right?
Speaker 5 (14:23):
Yeah, I don't understand, like there had there been something
that came up, like I just can't imagine an he's
like actually ghosting me, ghosting.
Speaker 1 (14:29):
All right, Well, let's see if we can figure this out.
We're gonna call Seth right now.
Speaker 7 (14:31):
Good luck, Meg, Thank you so much.
Speaker 5 (14:33):
I can't wait to talk to him. Thank you.
Speaker 1 (14:46):
Hello, hi's Seth.
Speaker 5 (14:51):
Yeah, this is Seth.
Speaker 2 (14:53):
Hi. You certainly may Seth. Well, we're so polite, may
I asked? My name is Fred. I'm calling for the
Fred Show, the morning radio show, and I have to
to tell you that we are on the radio right now,
and I would need your permission to continue with the call.
Can we chat for just a second on the year.
You can hang up at any time, okay, yeah, yeah, sure,
I know it. I know it's a little bit weird
to get a call like this, but we're calling on
(15:15):
behalf of someone named Meg, a woman named Meg who
reached out to us as she went on two dates
with you.
Speaker 1 (15:19):
I hope you remember her?
Speaker 8 (15:23):
Yeah, okay, yeah, I do, all right.
Speaker 2 (15:26):
Kind of a standard, kind of a standard answer for
something that may have gone awry. What happened with her?
Because we spoke with her for a little while. She
had great things to say about you and about the
two dates that you went on, and she seems surprised
that she hasn't heard from you.
Speaker 1 (15:40):
Can't get a hold of you. What's your side of
the story.
Speaker 8 (15:45):
Oh my goodness. Okay, she said it was awesome. That's
I mean, that's cool, that's flettering. I guess I believe.
Speaker 2 (15:51):
If I'm correct about this, she said it was these
were the two best dates she's ever been on.
Speaker 1 (15:56):
Yep, wow, okay, and you don't feel the same way.
Speaker 8 (16:00):
Well, I mean kind of half and half, But I
guess I'm sure she there was some details she probably
left out. I guess I'll tell my side of the story. Then,
drinks were great, had a great time obviously, if I
want wanted to go on a second date, then we
had a great time. But the second time we hung out,
(16:22):
she invited me out to a holiday party. And that's
when things took a why I put this.
Speaker 1 (16:31):
Took a strong turn, all right?
Speaker 8 (16:33):
Why so she invited me out to she said, she
called it her a friend's holiday party. She's like, okay, cool, Yeah,
you know, that's that sounds fun, hang out a little bit,
you probably some food, some drinks, and have a good time.
The first the first day was great, Like honestly, I
loved it. And when I got there, I started to
(16:56):
realize pretty quickly that this was more of a a
family party, which obviously took me by a total surprise.
Like I'm thinking we're gonna be hanging out with friends
and instead like her mom and dad were there, brothers
and sisters, cousins, family friends.
Speaker 2 (17:17):
Oh it was So this is a second date and
you're meeting everybody, I mean literally everybody.
Speaker 8 (17:23):
Yeah, But like that's not even the worst part of it.
Like as the night went on, I realized you must
have been telling people that we were in their relationship
for a while.
Speaker 1 (17:33):
And this is only the second date.
Speaker 2 (17:34):
I mean it would have been I think it would
have been bold to go to a like a friend
party on a second date. Like that's a lot to
ask of somebody that you've only gone on one day with.
But this was family, and so they're treating you like
you're the boyfriend.
Speaker 8 (17:46):
Yeah, I mean, and I'm honestly, I felt I felt bad,
so I went along with it. So I didn't want
to embarrass her. I'm not that type of person to
do that and just stand her up like that would
have been terrible.
Speaker 5 (17:59):
But as I was.
Speaker 8 (18:01):
Going along with it, I was telling myself like I
would never talk to the scroll again because that's it's
kind of insane.
Speaker 2 (18:08):
Yeah, it's like, what is she what does she think
this is after one date? What is she telling people?
And here to tell us more is Meg? Because I
forgot to mention that megus here. I want to bring
her in. I'm very forgetful. I get caught up in
the story.
Speaker 1 (18:19):
Meg.
Speaker 2 (18:20):
Did you bring him to a party with your parents
and siblings and tell them that you were in a
committed relationship?
Speaker 5 (18:28):
I mean, you listen, high seth.
Speaker 8 (18:30):
We had a really great time.
Speaker 5 (18:32):
I did. I did in write you to a party,
and I did have two friends there, So it wasn't like,
you know, a lie.
Speaker 2 (18:40):
Okay, the fairness hold on, No, Meg, I need you
to answer the question did you tell them that that
was your boyfriend?
Speaker 5 (18:46):
I mean, I I think everyone you know dreads a
lot of questions when they're single during the holidays, so,
like you know, sometimes you just say things to get
people off your back. It wasn't really a big deal though.
Speaker 2 (18:57):
But you got to tell you, Okay, if that's what
you're doing, you got to tell him that, like he
needs to be in on it, right, like if if
that's if it's a strategy, if it's a gimmick, just
simply so that people stop asking you questions, then you
got to be like, hey, this is what I'm thinking about.
First of all, we're going to a family party, and
second of all, I'm telling these people you're my boyfriend.
Speaker 1 (19:15):
I think he didn't do that because you.
Speaker 2 (19:18):
Know that that's but I think you also know that
it would sounds a little aggressive and he probably wouldn't
have been into it.
Speaker 5 (19:25):
I mean maybe I just you know, it was just
to me, it was just a fun party. We were
having fun. He had a good time. He went along
with it, so like he clearly like he was picking
up on it, and I thought it was so cute.
I was like, wow, we're just like so like in sync,
Like he gets me.
Speaker 2 (19:39):
I think he did that to be a kind person
because he didn't want to embarrass you in front of everybody.
Speaker 5 (19:44):
Embarrassing I mean, like we had such a fun time,
but you're not in a relationship, okay, but like we
but we were just having fun.
Speaker 7 (19:53):
It's a skit in a line. You do understand that.
Speaker 5 (19:56):
It's not really a lie. I mean, I mean that's
a really that's stretch.
Speaker 1 (20:00):
Are you in a relationship with this man?
Speaker 5 (20:02):
I mean we're dating, aren't we?
Speaker 1 (20:04):
Girl? We did bring you back. You went on Audi,
you went on you. You were you were a dater.
Speaker 2 (20:14):
I mean one time people with Hey Meg, one date
like that doesn't One date does not necessitate or or
mean a committed relationship. Like that's a very difficult.
Speaker 5 (20:26):
To put a committed relationship right off the bat. I
was just having fun, Like we all just want to
get through the holidays, don't we, Like our families put
so much pressure on a Like, let's just let's just
like enjoy it. We had a good time and like,
let's make some more memories together. Like, I don't know
why this is getting like so blown out of.
Speaker 1 (20:43):
Whose side are you on?
Speaker 9 (20:44):
I feel bad for her because I've been in this
position where family puts this pressure on you. Like, girl,
I'm out here living dreams and you're talking to me
about a man.
Speaker 1 (20:52):
Okay, like it?
Speaker 7 (20:53):
You know they always do that.
Speaker 1 (20:55):
What two things can be to you?
Speaker 2 (20:56):
Really do two things that can be true, and you
can also bring a man into a situation that he
didn't know about.
Speaker 7 (21:03):
Yeah, you don't do a ski apparently.
Speaker 1 (21:05):
Life that he's not aware of.
Speaker 2 (21:07):
And at least you could have done is given him
a heads up about what you did so that he
can choose whether he wants to walk into that or not.
And then he knows how to answer the questions and
he doesn't feel cornered. But you didn't do that, and
so now the guys thinks you're crazy.
Speaker 5 (21:20):
Oh my gosh, no, listen, I get like, okay, I
could have told him, but like he went along with
it and it went so well, like honestly for you
love him, my family loves him. Like it was great.
Speaker 2 (21:32):
Have you never Meg been in a situation where you
you went along with it just to get out of it?
Speaker 5 (21:38):
I guess so. But like I felt like going along
with it showed like how in sync we were, Like
he read my mind, Like we just had like such
a good time.
Speaker 9 (21:45):
He was trying to survive sis, like he didn't know
what you were capable of.
Speaker 5 (21:50):
It's like thriving. It felt like driving to me. I
don't know, I don't see it that way.
Speaker 1 (21:55):
All right, Well, look, is that really wait?
Speaker 3 (21:57):
Is that really?
Speaker 8 (21:58):
Like?
Speaker 5 (21:58):
Is that? Was that really a problem?
Speaker 2 (22:00):
I think telling your family that you're in a relationship
with a man that you went on one day with
and not telling him that, for him to be the
only one in the room that doesn't know, is a problem.
But Sethil asked the question, I mean, you did like
the first date the second thing? She I don't fully
believe that she was just doing this as a gimmick,
because I think she would have let you in on it.
Speaker 1 (22:19):
But would you like to go out with her again?
A third date?
Speaker 2 (22:22):
We try this, maybe you know, dinner, we don't invite
mom and dad and Mema and you know, and the
siblings and nieces and years and you know, maybe we
don't have a family reunion on the third date and
we see what happens.
Speaker 1 (22:34):
Would you like to try?
Speaker 5 (22:34):
Man?
Speaker 8 (22:36):
Honestly, no, I'm sorry, Meg, I can't do really.
Speaker 7 (22:41):
Oh, you already tell the family, right, You're to get married?
Speaker 1 (22:46):
When's the wedding that he doesn't know about?
Speaker 5 (22:49):
You know, we had a good connection.
Speaker 1 (22:53):
Are we being silly? I mean, I think we're just
being realistic.
Speaker 2 (22:55):
But the roles reversed, you wouldn't have a problem with this, Meg,
I mean, you can go to Seth for a second day.
He takes you to his parents' house, he introduces you
as his girlfriend. I mean you wouldn't and you didn't
know anything about it, you wouldn't have any issue with that.
Speaker 5 (23:08):
I mean, if we're still connecting and having a good
time and vibing like you know what, that's dating like
different now, you know, so you got to just like
embrace what.
Speaker 1 (23:18):
God, hey, dating might be different.
Speaker 2 (23:19):
You just got to make sure everybody who's dating in
this situation knows what where we're at, you know. And
I think the biggest issue here with Seth was unaware
that he was your boy.
Speaker 5 (23:27):
I mean, I hear you like it was like a problem.
I mean, but you know what I thought, since we
had so much fun, it wasn't a big deal.
Speaker 2 (23:33):
Okay, well, hey, you see like a nice person. Meg,
I think you jumped the gun here. I'll ask one
more time, because I don't dislike Meg. I just think
I think that was that was we we jumped to
conclusions here a little bit. But Seth, one more time,
I'll ask, do you want to go out with her again?
We'll pay for it.
Speaker 1 (23:50):
I'm sorry.
Speaker 8 (23:50):
I need to pass.
Speaker 2 (23:51):
Okay, he's not going to do it. Hey man, Oh
my gosh. Her surprise is a little it's a little concerning.
Speaker 7 (23:57):
I haven't shocked every time she convinced her.
Speaker 1 (24:00):
I think she did amazing.
Speaker 5 (24:01):
I really you know what, you meet people and you
have a connection with them, and you're like, you know,
this is special, this is something different, you know.
Speaker 2 (24:08):
And it's a shame. It's a shame when that's not reciprocated.
But my issue here is that it might have been
if we hadn't created this, this fantasy world that we
weren't quite living in yet.
Speaker 5 (24:18):
Yeah. No, I hear, I hear was the problem. Like,
I'm sorry that it was a problem.
Speaker 1 (24:22):
But I mean, yeah, wow, receptive. I don't Normally people
are totally Delulu. They're like, I don't know what you're
talking about. She seems to be aware. All right. Look,
I hope things work out for you. Set. Thank you
for answering. I wish you the best as well. Yeah,
thank you.
Speaker 4 (24:36):
Caitlin's entertainment report is on The Bread Show.
Speaker 1 (24:40):
Shelley.
Speaker 7 (24:41):
Yeah, you got a couple of kids. Yes, have you
ever asked AI how to parent? All the time? Every day?
Speaker 1 (24:50):
Okay, week, what's the last time you asked him?
Speaker 7 (24:52):
But when was the last time?
Speaker 10 (24:55):
Was the question something about congestion because my son's congested.
So I was asking something about like a saline solution
thing like how much is Okay?
Speaker 2 (25:02):
They got these people called doctors, you know, and you
can like go there. It's a real human being. I
know it doesn't feel like it these days, and it
can be hard to actually find one and visit them
and then get assurance to pay for it.
Speaker 7 (25:12):
But like chat GPT so much because I mean.
Speaker 2 (25:14):
When it comes to like, when it comes to like
actual like you know, bodily things, I don't know, I
prefer professional. I mean, we found out that it's wrong
sometimes you.
Speaker 10 (25:23):
Know so, but sometimes I just need validation in the moment. Okay,
what's happening.
Speaker 6 (25:28):
Okay, So you might not be mad about this quote,
but I think some parents will be triggered. Open AI
CEO Sam Altman was talking to Jimmy Fallon and said, like,
I like, I'm saying a quote that may trigger some
and I quote he said, I cannot imagine having gone
through slash figure out how to raise a newborn without
chat GBT.
Speaker 7 (25:49):
Okay, people have done it. Women used to give birth
and caves my guy, but hey, there you go.
Speaker 6 (25:53):
He did admit that he feels kind of bad asking
technology about parenting, but said a couple months ago when
he was at a party, talk you know someone who's
also raising a newborn. This is an example he gave
about they're six months old. He said that they told
him that their child was crawling everywhere.
Speaker 7 (26:08):
He got so worried he.
Speaker 6 (26:09):
Ran to the bathroom and asked Chad, as you call
him around here, should I go to the doctor tomorrow?
Speaker 7 (26:14):
He said.
Speaker 6 (26:15):
Chad answered with a great response, saying his son's development
was normal, and he said it is personalized, like to you.
It gets to know you along the way, like Pauline
always says, we're not doing the work.
Speaker 7 (26:27):
Do you want me to close this out, Freddy so
we can.

It's I can't remember the full title, but it's by
Jeff Pearlman. It just came out a couple of weeks ago.
Try to get Jeff on the show. He said he
would come, and then I can't. He's ghosting me now.
But it's actually a very good book. He did a
really good job, and I learned a lot about Tupac
I didn't know. But yeah, it's wherever books you're sold
is where you can find it. I think I got
(01:41):
mine at Barnes and Noble. No, they were sold out.
That's the biggest bummer to me is I try and
go to the bookstore and I try and buy an
actual book and then they're like, yeah, we don't have it. Great,

I have no idea where you're getting all of these
different pieces of content. But I used to think in
(03:35):
the commercial breaks I was safe. Now I don't think so,
because we're having to really pull from everywhere. So I
gotta stop picking my nose. Yes, like the other day
I was yesterday, I was watching a tiktaci took. I
like tiktaks, They're great. The only problem I had with
Tiktaks is that the box is a little awkward to
put in your pocket and then they shake, Yeah, and
(03:56):
that's the thing. I like them though. Same with Altoy's,
like the little Altoyd thing. They had them in my
pocket for jingle Ball like that they'd shake and it's
kind of weird and it's a weird shape. You're we

my nose the entire video because I forget there's a
camera right there, because well, that's sort of not what

Speaker 5 (05:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
They talk better than they say. These are the radio
blogs on the Fred Show.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
Also forty minutes commercial free Fred Show. You don't have
to go anywhere. Kaylen's got to blog our audio journals go.
Speaker 6 (05:15):
Thank you, dear blog. So hit us up if you
can relate to this. But I just feel like our grandparents' generation,
like they were built different in terms of keeping like
families together and being the matriarchs.
Speaker 1 (05:30):
It's just, yeah, they were tougher for people than we
are tougher.
Speaker 7 (05:33):
They're built different.
Speaker 6 (05:34):
They had different I don't know if it's values or
like they just kept kind of the family together, right,
and so they put.
Speaker 1 (05:41):
Up with more.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
Yeah, I think I think their level of commitment and
their toleration of things that now would be divorceable offenses
correct after twenty minutes, Yeah, that.
Speaker 6 (05:51):
Kind of things undiagnosed mentally ill, you know, I feel for.
Speaker 1 (05:56):
That I had to repress.
Speaker 2 (05:57):
I mean, there was good and bad that cambris, you.
Speaker 6 (05:59):
Know, but you know I used to look at my
grandma and be like, like, you don't even know what's going,
you know whatever.
Speaker 7 (06:04):
Anyways, so I digress.
Speaker 6 (06:06):
But on my mom's side, we unfortunately lost my My
mom has two sisters, so three girls, both of my
grandparents within a short period of time. And their house
was kind of like the house that kept everything together,
you know, even if you weren't close with certain family members,
you'd still see them whatever. So once we lost them,
you know, it was kind of we were looking to
(06:28):
my parents' generation to kind of like keep things together,
and everyone's busy. It was hard to lose their parents.
So they're not really doing it, and not for bad reason.
It's just it's a lot. Life is a lot. So
there's six of us cousins and we have kind of
taken it upon ourselves to like try and recreate some
of those traditions.
Speaker 7 (06:47):
We live in different places.
Speaker 6 (06:49):
And it's not as easy as it looked, you know
what I mean, because it'll be like each holiday will
be like, oh, who wants to have people over?
Speaker 7 (06:55):
I don't feel like doing it. I don't feel like
doing it.
Speaker 6 (06:57):
So we're we have this cousin's group checks and we
are very much trying to take this responsibility on one
thing that we did together, which would be your absolute nightmare, Fred,
But we did a what it's called a houseboat on
Lake Cumberland. Wait, yes, it was all fair body and
a body of water.
Speaker 7 (07:16):
Nope, big old boat.
Speaker 1 (07:17):
There was like a hot time and it's fly.
Speaker 6 (07:21):
Yeah, and we all did it together and it was
so fun and so were That is one of the
things that we are trying to plan and do. My
sister was a whole ass baby when we did that trip,
so she never got to experience it. And I do
feel like also the babies of the family, Kiki, you
may be able to relate like sometimes like the older ones,
like they grew up in the family was still fun
and still had their stamina. And by the baby, it's like,
(07:42):
you know, we don't feel like putting stuff together. You
missed out on all the trips and all the memories.
So we're trying to do all this and it's not
as easy as it looks. And I just don't know
if any of our listeners feel like, you know, okay,
we we lost the center point, either the house or
the people that kept everything together and how they're working
to either make nutrient or bring it together, because you know,
it's sad to watch it go away.
Speaker 1 (08:04):
It's amazing.
Speaker 2 (08:04):
Whether it's family or friends, as people get older, it's
very difficult to sort of keep relationships as strong as
they once were. Yeah, and proximity is a big deal,
even if you're in the same city. Like a lot
of I don't have cousins, but like my close friends,
over the years, they've their lives have change, they've had
kids and gotten married, and they're doing different things that
I'm doing, and there's no lack of love. But they
(08:26):
live in the suburbs and they get together over things
that have to do with kids, and they don't include
me in that stuff necessarily because well, they don't think
i'd want to go, because I don't necessarily want to
watch their kids run around like a play place or whatever.
But I would because But whether it's family or friends,
like it's just people spread out and there's no lack
of love there. But it's like it happens probably once
a month where I reconnect with someone at least briefly
(08:47):
from the past, and it's like, why don't we talk
more often? I don't know, why don't we hang out?
I don't know, let's do it. And then another year
goes by, and so you have to work at stuff like.
Speaker 7 (08:55):
That, and it's a lot of work, you know.
Speaker 6 (08:58):
So if you're going through the same thing, I feel you.
And if you have any ideas, you know, for how
to keep the family and traditions together, shoot on my
wist I want to do.
Speaker 2 (09:07):
I'm going to rent a houseboat and put all my
buddies and their wives on the boat.
Speaker 1 (09:11):
But then I'm going to have a cabin.
Speaker 2 (09:12):
So we docked there, but then at the nighttime, we
just set that boat out to the middle of the
lake or vice versa, whatever, as long as there's a
place for or maybe there's a little dinghy attached to it,
and I row myself to the days in on the dock.
Speaker 7 (09:26):
You know what I'm saying that, Yeah, that's a great one.
Speaker 3 (09:29):
I married to a family like this Scalen so with
the like the cousins thing and the closeness. So Hobby
comes from a really big family and there's like a
lot of cousins. Ray and then like you're you're right,
It's like the older crew, then the baby crew who
are like the twenty year old now they did not
experience from the stories that I've heard of, like all
to get together is the family parties.
Speaker 7 (09:47):
Even true it was late, it sounds like I mean,
I missed the jukes that wasn't there.
Speaker 3 (09:51):
But I feel like now Hobby is trying to be
that glue because his father is so his father is
kind of the glue after the parents, the grandparents passed away.
I think two thousand nineteen, maybe he's trying to be
the glue because one day, you know, his father won't
be able to anymore either. But it's hard work even
just hosting, entertaining all of that, Like I don't know
how people do that so.
Speaker 6 (10:11):
That it might be your house and that's that's a
lot of work. But it's also such a beautiful thing.
Speaker 7 (10:15):
And I love saying that.
Speaker 3 (10:16):
Because I want my daughter and that I have a baby,
I want her to be like with the cousins and
the crew.
Speaker 2 (10:20):
Yes, we also just a is an offshoot speaking of
entertaining at your house, can we talk about something that
just went it just it was it came and went
off the air. But you are looking to sort of
develop your backyard a little bit, you know, because you
want to have people over to the house. And Hobby's
idea was for this kind of entertainment, so that cousins
(10:41):
can come over.
Speaker 1 (10:41):
Whatever.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
Hobby's idea was to put a porta potty in the
backyard of your home.
Speaker 7 (10:47):
He was very serious about this, So let's not laugh at.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
The actual porta potty. Yeah, your backyard permanent inside.
Speaker 7 (10:53):
I don't care.
Speaker 1 (10:53):
That would just stay there all the time.
Speaker 7 (10:55):
He was serious, and he was so serious.
Speaker 3 (10:57):
He said, you know, people don't have to go inside,
then they gives use the port of pot I said, sir,
are you sick?
Speaker 7 (11:01):
Like what are you talking about?
Speaker 3 (11:03):
I want to see you tell my mother or your
mother to use the bathroom to go crap in the
in the in the pot like go.
Speaker 7 (11:09):
I would love to see that happen.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
There's a lot I'd like to unpack about that, but
I like that. Like if you go to rather if you.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
Like an event like something whatever, and and they just
aren't enough bathrooms for the mass public that shows up, okay, fine,
Like I go to a border body if you have to,
Oh my god, it's the worst possible thing. Like I
try everything not to have to do it, but I'll
go pee in there whatever. I don't know who peed
before me or after me?
Speaker 1 (11:32):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
But can you imagine like crapping on top of your
relatives crap all day?
Speaker 1 (11:36):
You know what I mean.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
I'm not trying to be gross, but like I can
see everybody who's used that. These are people I know.
Get I'm in there following people I know, and we're
just it's just it's a disgusting thing.
Speaker 7 (11:48):
It's should we have plumbing at home?
Speaker 5 (11:50):
I don't know why?
Speaker 1 (11:52):
When did you guys get that?
Speaker 3 (11:53):
That's cool?
Speaker 1 (11:54):
Little bit? Congratulations?
Speaker 2 (11:57):
It's ever been left waiting by the phone. It's the
Fredshell Meg, Good morning, welcome to the program.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
How are you?
Speaker 5 (12:07):
Hi? Good morning, I'm good.
Speaker 7 (12:09):
How are you?
Speaker 1 (12:10):
J and all right? What's going on with this guy? Seth?
Speaker 2 (12:12):
This is of course waiting by the phone. We're trying
to figure out if you've been ghosted. It feels like
you've been ghosted. You think I got to know how
you met, about any dates that you've been on, and
then where things are now.
Speaker 5 (12:23):
Sure, I honestly think this is probably some sort of
weird misunderstanding. So I'm hoping we can work it out.
I met Seth on Hinge and he's a really great guy.
We had a lot in common and we just hit
it off. We went on two dates. They were great,
Like I had the They're probably the best dates I've
ever been on, Like I had the best time. I
really felt connected to him, Like it just felt like
(12:45):
we were on the same page. So I definitely expected
to have a third date. But he like disappeared. So
I don't know. It feels like something. It just doesn't
make sense to me. It feels like something must have happened,
and like we've got to reconnect because I can't imagine
that I'm actually ghosted from someone that I connected that
well with.
Speaker 2 (13:05):
Interesting, So this is a two date ghost. We hear
a lot about one date, and then you don't hear
from the person.
Speaker 1 (13:11):
Wish I am.
Speaker 2 (13:12):
We've had this debate many times, whether you really owe
somebody anything after a first date, Like do I really
need to call you after one date and explain to
you why I don't like you? Like I don't know,
but two dates, maybe three, I don't know. But here
you are really confused because you like this guy and
you don't see a problem, and then he goes away
and you can't get a hold of him, and it's
like that, hold on a minute, Well we on two
(13:33):
different dates or you know what happened?
Speaker 5 (13:35):
Yeah, it just doesn't make sense to me, Like I said, like,
these are the best dates I've probably ever been on.
So it's clear to me that he didn't call, he
didn't reach out like I tried texting him, nothing like.
It just doesn't I don't know, like what happened.
Speaker 8 (13:48):
It went so well, I don't understand.
Speaker 2 (13:50):
Okay, Well that's where we come in. We're going to
play a song. Come back, call Seth. You'll be on
the phone. We're going to ask these questions on your behalf.
And the hope is always is that we can straighten
things out and set you guys up on another date
and pay for that.
Speaker 8 (14:01):
All right, I look forward to that.
Speaker 5 (14:03):
Thank you so much.
Speaker 1 (14:04):
Hey Meg, Hey, welcome back. Let's call Seth.
Speaker 2 (14:07):
You guys actually went on two dates and you felt
like both dates went really well. I believe that, you said.
I want to make sure I get this right. These
were the best two dates that you've ever been on.
Speaker 5 (14:16):
Yes, they really were.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
Which is interesting because you go from two of the
best dates ever and not hearing from this guy.
Speaker 1 (14:21):
So where is the disconnect?
Speaker 9 (14:22):
Right?
Speaker 5 (14:23):
Yeah, I don't understand, like there had there been something
that came up, like I just can't imagine an he's
like actually ghosting me, ghosting.
Speaker 1 (14:29):
All right, Well, let's see if we can figure this out.
We're gonna call Seth right now.
Speaker 7 (14:31):
Good luck, Meg, Thank you so much.
Speaker 5 (14:33):
I can't wait to talk to him. Thank you.
Speaker 1 (14:46):
Hello, hi's Seth.
Speaker 5 (14:51):
Yeah, this is Seth.
Speaker 2 (14:53):
Hi. You certainly may Seth. Well, we're so polite, may
I asked? My name is Fred. I'm calling for the
Fred Show, the morning radio show, and I have to
to tell you that we are on the radio right now,
and I would need your permission to continue with the call.
Can we chat for just a second on the year.
You can hang up at any time, okay, yeah, yeah, sure,
I know it. I know it's a little bit weird
to get a call like this, but we're calling on
(15:15):
behalf of someone named Meg, a woman named Meg who
reached out to us as she went on two dates
with you.
Speaker 1 (15:19):
I hope you remember her?
Speaker 8 (15:23):
Yeah, okay, yeah, I do, all right.
Speaker 2 (15:26):
Kind of a standard, kind of a standard answer for
something that may have gone awry. What happened with her?
Because we spoke with her for a little while. She
had great things to say about you and about the
two dates that you went on, and she seems surprised
that she hasn't heard from you.
Speaker 1 (15:40):
Can't get a hold of you. What's your side of
the story.
Speaker 8 (15:45):
Oh my goodness. Okay, she said it was awesome. That's
I mean, that's cool, that's flettering. I guess I believe.
Speaker 2 (15:51):
If I'm correct about this, she said it was these
were the two best dates she's ever been on.
Speaker 1 (15:56):
Yep, wow, okay, and you don't feel the same way.
Speaker 8 (16:00):
Well, I mean kind of half and half, But I
guess I'm sure she there was some details she probably
left out. I guess I'll tell my side of the story. Then,
drinks were great, had a great time obviously, if I
want wanted to go on a second date, then we
had a great time. But the second time we hung out,
(16:22):
she invited me out to a holiday party. And that's
when things took a why I put this.
Speaker 1 (16:31):
Took a strong turn, all right?
Speaker 8 (16:33):
Why so she invited me out to she said, she
called it her a friend's holiday party. She's like, okay, cool, Yeah,
you know, that's that sounds fun, hang out a little bit,
you probably some food, some drinks, and have a good time.
The first the first day was great, Like honestly, I
loved it. And when I got there, I started to
(16:56):
realize pretty quickly that this was more of a a
family party, which obviously took me by a total surprise.
Like I'm thinking we're gonna be hanging out with friends
and instead like her mom and dad were there, brothers
and sisters, cousins, family friends.
Speaker 2 (17:17):
Oh it was So this is a second date and
you're meeting everybody, I mean literally everybody.
Speaker 8 (17:23):
Yeah, But like that's not even the worst part of it.
Like as the night went on, I realized you must
have been telling people that we were in their relationship
for a while.
Speaker 1 (17:33):
And this is only the second date.
Speaker 2 (17:34):
I mean it would have been I think it would
have been bold to go to a like a friend
party on a second date. Like that's a lot to
ask of somebody that you've only gone on one day with.
But this was family, and so they're treating you like
you're the boyfriend.
Speaker 8 (17:46):
Yeah, I mean, and I'm honestly, I felt I felt bad,
so I went along with it. So I didn't want
to embarrass her. I'm not that type of person to
do that and just stand her up like that would
have been terrible.
Speaker 5 (17:59):
But as I was.
Speaker 8 (18:01):
Going along with it, I was telling myself like I
would never talk to the scroll again because that's it's
kind of insane.
Speaker 2 (18:08):
Yeah, it's like, what is she what does she think
this is after one date? What is she telling people?
And here to tell us more is Meg? Because I
forgot to mention that megus here. I want to bring
her in. I'm very forgetful. I get caught up in
the story.
Speaker 1 (18:19):
Meg.
Speaker 2 (18:20):
Did you bring him to a party with your parents
and siblings and tell them that you were in a
committed relationship?
Speaker 5 (18:28):
I mean, you listen, high seth.
Speaker 8 (18:30):
We had a really great time.
Speaker 5 (18:32):
I did. I did in write you to a party,
and I did have two friends there, So it wasn't like,
you know, a lie.
Speaker 2 (18:40):
Okay, the fairness hold on, No, Meg, I need you
to answer the question did you tell them that that
was your boyfriend?
Speaker 5 (18:46):
I mean, I I think everyone you know dreads a
lot of questions when they're single during the holidays, so,
like you know, sometimes you just say things to get
people off your back. It wasn't really a big deal though.
Speaker 2 (18:57):
But you got to tell you, Okay, if that's what
you're doing, you got to tell him that, like he
needs to be in on it, right, like if if
that's if it's a strategy, if it's a gimmick, just
simply so that people stop asking you questions, then you
got to be like, hey, this is what I'm thinking about.
First of all, we're going to a family party, and
second of all, I'm telling these people you're my boyfriend.
Speaker 1 (19:15):
I think he didn't do that because you.
Speaker 2 (19:18):
Know that that's but I think you also know that
it would sounds a little aggressive and he probably wouldn't
have been into it.
Speaker 5 (19:25):
I mean maybe I just you know, it was just
to me, it was just a fun party. We were
having fun. He had a good time. He went along
with it, so like he clearly like he was picking
up on it, and I thought it was so cute.
I was like, wow, we're just like so like in sync,
Like he gets me.
Speaker 2 (19:39):
I think he did that to be a kind person
because he didn't want to embarrass you in front of everybody.
Speaker 5 (19:44):
Embarrassing I mean, like we had such a fun time,
but you're not in a relationship, okay, but like we
but we were just having fun.
Speaker 7 (19:53):
It's a skit in a line. You do understand that.
Speaker 5 (19:56):
It's not really a lie. I mean, I mean that's
a really that's stretch.
Speaker 1 (20:00):
Are you in a relationship with this man?
Speaker 5 (20:02):
I mean we're dating, aren't we?
Speaker 1 (20:04):
Girl? We did bring you back. You went on Audi,
you went on you. You were you were a dater.
Speaker 2 (20:14):
I mean one time people with Hey Meg, one date
like that doesn't One date does not necessitate or or
mean a committed relationship. Like that's a very difficult.
Speaker 5 (20:26):
To put a committed relationship right off the bat. I
was just having fun, Like we all just want to
get through the holidays, don't we, Like our families put
so much pressure on a Like, let's just let's just
like enjoy it. We had a good time and like,
let's make some more memories together. Like, I don't know
why this is getting like so blown out of.
Speaker 1 (20:43):
Whose side are you on?
Speaker 9 (20:44):
I feel bad for her because I've been in this
position where family puts this pressure on you. Like, girl,
I'm out here living dreams and you're talking to me
about a man.
Speaker 1 (20:52):
Okay, like it?
Speaker 7 (20:53):
You know they always do that.
Speaker 1 (20:55):
What two things can be to you?
Speaker 2 (20:56):
Really do two things that can be true, and you
can also bring a man into a situation that he
didn't know about.
Speaker 7 (21:03):
Yeah, you don't do a ski apparently.
Speaker 1 (21:05):
Life that he's not aware of.
Speaker 2 (21:07):
And at least you could have done is given him
a heads up about what you did so that he
can choose whether he wants to walk into that or not.
And then he knows how to answer the questions and
he doesn't feel cornered. But you didn't do that, and
so now the guys thinks you're crazy.
Speaker 5 (21:20):
Oh my gosh, no, listen, I get like, okay, I
could have told him, but like he went along with
it and it went so well, like honestly for you
love him, my family loves him. Like it was great.
Speaker 2 (21:32):
Have you never Meg been in a situation where you
you went along with it just to get out of it?
Speaker 5 (21:38):
I guess so. But like I felt like going along
with it showed like how in sync we were, Like
he read my mind, Like we just had like such
a good time.
Speaker 9 (21:45):
He was trying to survive sis, like he didn't know
what you were capable of.
Speaker 5 (21:50):
It's like thriving. It felt like driving to me. I
don't know, I don't see it that way.
Speaker 1 (21:55):
All right, Well, look, is that really wait?
Speaker 3 (21:57):
Is that really?
Speaker 8 (21:58):
Like?
Speaker 5 (21:58):
Is that? Was that really a problem?
Speaker 2 (22:00):
I think telling your family that you're in a relationship
with a man that you went on one day with
and not telling him that, for him to be the
only one in the room that doesn't know, is a problem.
But Sethil asked the question, I mean, you did like
the first date the second thing? She I don't fully
believe that she was just doing this as a gimmick,
because I think she would have let you in on it.
Speaker 1 (22:19):
But would you like to go out with her again?
A third date?
Speaker 2 (22:22):
We try this, maybe you know, dinner, we don't invite
mom and dad and Mema and you know, and the
siblings and nieces and years and you know, maybe we
don't have a family reunion on the third date and
we see what happens.
Speaker 1 (22:34):
Would you like to try?
Speaker 5 (22:34):
Man?
Speaker 8 (22:36):
Honestly, no, I'm sorry, Meg, I can't do really.
Speaker 7 (22:41):
Oh, you already tell the family, right, You're to get married?
Speaker 1 (22:46):
When's the wedding that he doesn't know about?
Speaker 5 (22:49):
You know, we had a good connection.
Speaker 1 (22:53):
Are we being silly? I mean, I think we're just
being realistic.
Speaker 2 (22:55):
But the roles reversed, you wouldn't have a problem with this, Meg,
I mean, you can go to Seth for a second day.
He takes you to his parents' house, he introduces you
as his girlfriend. I mean you wouldn't and you didn't
know anything about it, you wouldn't have any issue with that.
Speaker 5 (23:08):
I mean, if we're still connecting and having a good
time and vibing like you know what, that's dating like
different now, you know, so you got to just like
embrace what.
Speaker 1 (23:18):
God, hey, dating might be different.
Speaker 2 (23:19):
You just got to make sure everybody who's dating in
this situation knows what where we're at, you know. And
I think the biggest issue here with Seth was unaware
that he was your boy.
Speaker 5 (23:27):
I mean, I hear you like it was like a problem.
I mean, but you know what I thought, since we
had so much fun, it wasn't a big deal.
Speaker 2 (23:33):
Okay, well, hey, you see like a nice person. Meg,
I think you jumped the gun here. I'll ask one
more time, because I don't dislike Meg. I just think
I think that was that was we we jumped to
conclusions here a little bit. But Seth, one more time,
I'll ask, do you want to go out with her again?
We'll pay for it.
Speaker 1 (23:50):
I'm sorry.
Speaker 8 (23:50):
I need to pass.
Speaker 2 (23:51):
Okay, he's not going to do it. Hey man, Oh
my gosh. Her surprise is a little it's a little concerning.
Speaker 7 (23:57):
I haven't shocked every time she convinced her.
Speaker 1 (24:00):
I think she did amazing.
Speaker 5 (24:01):
I really you know what, you meet people and you
have a connection with them, and you're like, you know,
this is special, this is something different, you know.
Speaker 2 (24:08):
And it's a shame. It's a shame when that's not reciprocated.
But my issue here is that it might have been
if we hadn't created this, this fantasy world that we
weren't quite living in yet.
Speaker 5 (24:18):
Yeah. No, I hear, I hear was the problem. Like,
I'm sorry that it was a problem.
Speaker 1 (24:22):
But I mean, yeah, wow, receptive. I don't Normally people
are totally Delulu. They're like, I don't know what you're
talking about. She seems to be aware. All right. Look,
I hope things work out for you. Set. Thank you
for answering. I wish you the best as well. Yeah,
thank you.
Speaker 4 (24:36):
Caitlin's entertainment report is on The Bread Show.
Speaker 1 (24:40):
Shelley.
Speaker 7 (24:41):
Yeah, you got a couple of kids. Yes, have you
ever asked AI how to parent? All the time? Every day?
Speaker 1 (24:50):
Okay, week, what's the last time you asked him?
Speaker 7 (24:52):
But when was the last time?
Speaker 10 (24:55):
Was the question something about congestion because my son's congested.
So I was asking something about like a saline solution
thing like how much is Okay?
Speaker 2 (25:02):
They got these people called doctors, you know, and you
can like go there. It's a real human being. I
know it doesn't feel like it these days, and it
can be hard to actually find one and visit them
and then get assurance to pay for it.
Speaker 7 (25:12):
But like chat GPT so much because I mean.
Speaker 2 (25:14):
When it comes to like, when it comes to like
actual like you know, bodily things, I don't know, I
prefer professional. I mean, we found out that it's wrong
sometimes you.
Speaker 10 (25:23):
Know so, but sometimes I just need validation in the moment. Okay,
what's happening.
Speaker 6 (25:28):
Okay, So you might not be mad about this quote,
but I think some parents will be triggered. Open AI
CEO Sam Altman was talking to Jimmy Fallon and said, like,
I like, I'm saying a quote that may trigger some
and I quote he said, I cannot imagine having gone
through slash figure out how to raise a newborn without
chat GBT.
Speaker 7 (25:49):
Okay, people have done it. Women used to give birth
and caves my guy, but hey, there you go.
Speaker 6 (25:53):
He did admit that he feels kind of bad asking
technology about parenting, but said a couple months ago when
he was at a party, talk you know someone who's
also raising a newborn. This is an example he gave
about they're six months old. He said that they told
him that their child was crawling everywhere.
Speaker 7 (26:08):
He got so worried he.
Speaker 6 (26:09):
Ran to the bathroom and asked Chad, as you call
him around here, should I go to the doctor tomorrow?
Speaker 7 (26:14):
He said.
Speaker 6 (26:15):
Chad answered with a great response, saying his son's development
was normal, and he said it is personalized, like to you.
It gets to know you along the way, like Pauline
always says, we're not doing the work.
