(02:15):
than thirty minutes. Apparently, me Ow Me Out Fresh show
is on Tuesday, April fifteenth, Morning Klein Morning, Hi, Jason Brown,
Hi Paulina.

Speaker 1 (02:28):
Kiki's here.

Speaker 2 (02:29):
Plain on the phone the text eight five five five.
I just I ordered some Instacart, you know, groceries to
come to my house later this morning because I got
to work out today with Body by Gideon, and I
need like bananas and stuff I don't know. I need like,
you know, vegetables and on and like sandwich meat, you know,
so I don't know. I cannot die in this thing.

(02:53):
And they brought me everything I bought that I saw
the receipt. It hasn't arrived yet. They brought me everything
except the sad much meat. So I have bread and cheese,
but they decided that they didn't have sand I guess
they didn't have the sandwich meat I wanted, uhuh, and
I'd put alternatives in there. They didn't have any sandwich.
But I'm like, so you and I appreciate the person

(03:15):
who's shopping and thank you for doing it for me,
and it's I may pay it for the service. I
pay annually for the service. He's very convenient, But like
you didn't look at that and say, this guy probably
needs sandwich meat. Like he's obviously trying to make a sandwich.
There's you know, tomatoes and lettuce and cheese and bread
and mustard. He ordered all that, so let's make sure

(03:37):
that we just don't try real hard.

Speaker 1 (03:39):
On the on the meat. Oh that makes me so mad.

Speaker 4 (03:42):
And I promise they had something. Don't close like the
option make you send another option? There were there were
other options or closest option. It says that in there.
But I'm just like, I don't expect you. I get it,
like you're doing this all day. You're not analyzing people's
you know. But if you go to like the mustard
section and you go to the bread section and you

(04:03):
go to the cheese section.

Speaker 1 (04:06):
We're missing something. We're missing something. I have a theory.

Speaker 2 (04:09):
Yeah, I think they do it on purpose because I
have to order again.

Speaker 5 (04:12):
You have to order again. So now that gives me
another task, because.

Speaker 1 (04:16):
You're right, because I'm not going to do it today.

Speaker 2 (04:18):
I'm gonna have to wait till I need more stuff,
but I'm gonna have to probably do it tomorrow or
just get my lazy ass and go buy some sandwich meade,
because otherwise I got bread and cheese and mustard and
that's not a great sandwich.

Speaker 1 (04:27):
Makes me so mad.

Speaker 2 (04:28):
But I I'm just like guys, guys, guys, guys, guys,
come on now and they say, the delis the deli
is open.

Speaker 1 (04:34):
It is open. I know what, I know where I
ordered from. It is open. It's open like all the time. Anyway.

Speaker 2 (04:39):
I just I just like, you know, it would have
been so now, m I have a bread sandwich, a
banana sandwich when I get home.

Speaker 6 (04:48):
Golls on your way out, exactly.

Speaker 1 (04:50):
It's a very good clue.

Speaker 2 (04:51):
I forget to go down there, the little mini grocery
store they get across the street. I forget about that place.
I can go in there. You're right, thank you.

Speaker 5 (04:57):
Yeah, I mean it's very frustrating. But sometimes if I
forget something, I go back there, and.

Speaker 2 (05:01):
I'm the lazy one who won't go to the grocery store.
So it's my fault. But at the same time, like guys.

Speaker 5 (05:06):
No, let's use our huts.

Speaker 2 (05:07):
Like you can very clearly see or I've done it before,
where like I'm trying to make out something and like
the star of the dish is the salmon, or the
star of the dishes the whatever, and they bring me
everything but that so I have all the spices, what.

Speaker 1 (05:19):
Am I supposed to be?

Speaker 2 (05:20):
Pour those on my tongue and pretend like it's like
to imagine that there's protein, like you guys, like we
got to use a little ingenuity here, just a little
bit like we got it knas you know. It's my fault, though,
I just want to be clear. It's my fault first
world problems. It's my fault that I'm gonna eat a
bread sandwich later. Can what's coming up in the entertainer
re import.

Speaker 6 (05:39):
Oh my gosh, you just took me on a journey.
Don't you did something really cool for a fan? Also
the white wrapper Mount Rushmore, Okay, where people are arguing,
well I have to think about that.

Speaker 2 (05:51):
I ARGUEMNAM obviously, yeah, but then I don't have to
think about that.

Speaker 5 (05:55):
It's interesting.

Speaker 1 (05:56):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (05:56):
Let me tell you a stayer Goo will debate the
relationship drama that is two minutes it's away show up
is kicking for Shelley in our pop culture game, The Showdown.
Five hundred bucks. Yeah, yeah, that is respectable money. Nineteen
and two is your record seven game win streaked waiting
by the phones coming up too, Fred Show.

Speaker 1 (06:12):
We're also commercial free Fread Show is on. It's stay
or go.

Speaker 2 (06:17):
Right, Cassie, Hi, Cassie, good morning, Good morning. Still trying
to get over the grilled cheese sandwich. I gotta eat
when I get home.

Speaker 1 (06:26):
That sounds good though.

Speaker 2 (06:27):
I mean that's probably what it will be, but there's
no protein in that. But this isn't about me. This
is about you, Cassie. What's going on with this? This
is your husband, right, this is three years you've been
married to as a man.

Speaker 7 (06:41):
Yeah, so I've been married three years, but we've actually
been together for seven so I feel like i've known
him enough by now, and I'm just so freaking frustrated.

Speaker 2 (06:50):
Yeah, I got your note here from Fred Show Radio
dot Com. So all right, what's the issue. You're frustrated?
Because what what is this guy doing? Let's handle this
right now. We're going to solve this problem for you.

Speaker 7 (07:02):
Good, I hope so, because I'm losing my mind. So
he stays up all night to play video games, and
people tell me I should be grateful because he doesn't
drink or do drugs. But he'll be screaming at people
till four in the morning, and I can't get any sleep,
and he can't get any sleep, and he spends all
his money and time on it. And he doesn't buy

(07:24):
me flowers, but he'll buy a sixty dollars video game.

Speaker 1 (07:27):
Oh boy.

Speaker 2 (07:27):
So he's got his head set on and he's yelling
at you know, some kid in Tacoma, Washington. You know
he's playing Madden or whatever. Those death games are, the
shooting games Call of Duty COD Yeah.

Speaker 7 (07:40):
Yeah, and I'm sure they're all eleven years old. Right,
I'm like, get some friends.

Speaker 2 (07:44):
I don't know yesterday or I don't know if it
was a tangent or on the air, but yeah, it's
a little weird that, you know, adults are playing against children.
And I get that kids are good at these games
and whatever, but I know it's a little strange. Okay,
So this dude's spending all this time so he doesn't
buy you flowers. Is he's not in bed next to you?

Speaker 1 (08:01):
He's not. I don't know, he's not. He's not.

Speaker 2 (08:05):
He's not paying enough attention to you. He's obsessed with
these video games. It's bothering you.

Speaker 7 (08:10):
Yeah, And sometimes I'll crawl in bed and I'll be like, Okay,
it's been a while, maybe we'll have some, you know,
some sexy time. And no, he just is too tired
from it. And I can't believe he's choosing that over me.
And I don't know. It's it drives me crazy, and
it's it's really hurting our marriage.

Speaker 2 (08:29):
Honestly, I've seen tiktoks and I don't know if they're
real or not, but I've seen tiktoks of women who
walk out completely naked in front of their men who
are playing video games.

Speaker 1 (08:36):
And these dudes don't even look up.

Speaker 5 (08:37):
They'd rather play with their controlers.

Speaker 1 (08:38):
They don't even look up, and the woman's just standing
there like, come hither.

Speaker 7 (08:42):
You know.

Speaker 2 (08:42):
Yeah, So I assume you've said something to him. I
assume you've been like, yo, dude, you know, I'm fine
with this as a as a distraction or as you know,
in moderation, the same way you'd be fine with him
playing golf for whatever else, whatever he does. But come on, like,
enough is enough. We can't spend hours and hours. We

(09:04):
have to like be a couple and communicate it and
spend time together. He can't always be video games. I
assume you've said that to him.

Speaker 7 (09:11):
Yeah, and I'll dress up and I don't know. He
just like, I don't know, he's like more in love
with the video games than me. But yeah, the other
day about like sixty hours with a lingerie and no,
he wasn't having it.

Speaker 2 (09:22):
He was not interested and he was mad because he
couldn't spend the sixty bucks to make his little Mario
Kart better or whatever.

Speaker 1 (09:29):
Yeah, but what's his response?

Speaker 2 (09:30):
He's tired, Like when you say this to him, when
you say, like, hey man, what does he say to
you in response? Or does he have a response?

Speaker 7 (09:38):
Well, like I said, he says, Okay, he doesn't drink
and he doesn't do drugs, so he'll remind me of that.
And maybe I should be great, fol because my girlfriends
tell me that. But I don't know. I feel like
maybe he's just gasolighting me. But I can't tell because
I don't know. I feel like it's an addiction in itself.
I feel like this is a problem.

Speaker 2 (09:57):
Yeah, somebody texted, well, it's not he's out cheating, okay,
but I mean it's a bit extreme, right, Like, Yeah,
that's nice that he's not defiling your marriage, but he's
not lucky. He's not spending enough time with you. He's
not paying attention to you. Again, an hour here, an
hour there, maybe even an hour a day or whatever
a couple, I don't know, a couple of hours. But
if you're sitting there, you know, from the time you
get home to whenever, playing these games, like what are

(10:20):
you avoiding? You know, because that's what I would argue, like,
what is it? Why are you so intent on doing this?
As it posted? Why'd you get married? I mean, I
know these are, you know, much broader questions, but this
is a problem. And I don't care if it's that
or God, what other other things that you could be
doing any anything other than paying attention to your significant

(10:44):
other a little bit occasionally, right, That's not too much
to ask, Cassie.

Speaker 7 (10:50):
Yeah, and definitely, I'm glad you brought that up, because
it definitely feels like he's cheating sometimes. But then again,
I feel like I'm just being selfish. But then again,
I don't know who he's talking to on the games,
like is it a child or is it a woman?
Like I have no idea. He's just in there at
four am, so I don't know, but it does feel
a little bit like, you know, the significant other is
his freaking games.

Speaker 2 (11:10):
Well, now hold on, Cassie. Let us be the ones
to jump to the wild Let Kiki be the ones
the ones to jump to the wild conclusions. Okay, I
mean I was just I was. I was focused more
on the fact that he's playing the games. And now
Kiky's probably gonna take it to well, he's obviously talking
to a woman. No, no, on the headset, that's where
you would go with this. Okay, let me take some
phone calls on this. Eight five, five, five, nine, one

(11:30):
one o three five. Have the radio one, Cassie. Let's
see what people have to say. I'm sure there are
other people who have been through this or are going
through this, uh and may have something to say about it,
but I'm not sure. I mean, I wouldn't say go no,
but I would also say it's something that needs to
be rectified, because I mean, what's the point of being

(11:52):
in a in a relationship if there's no dialogue, if
there's no moderation, if he's not spending time with you,
and it doesn't have to be all the time, but
I mean, come on sometimes, right.

Speaker 7 (12:04):
Yeah, yeah, for sure, for sure. I mean at least
once a week. But he's got to get off the games,
he really does.

Speaker 2 (12:10):
Let's see what the what folks have to say. Thank you, Cassie,
good luck, have a good day.

Speaker 7 (12:14):
Thank you.

Speaker 1 (12:15):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (12:15):
Someone sitting on the sex Lego building, you keep those,
you keep them. Keep lego out of your mouth.

Speaker 5 (12:20):
It's got that Sabrina Carboner skin gone.

Speaker 1 (12:22):
He keeps it out of your mouth. I don't.

Speaker 2 (12:24):
There is no one at home, so I can do
whatever I want. I can eat my cheese sandwich with
my legos. Actually can't because I can't get the grease
on the legos.

Speaker 1 (12:30):
And oh it's smudges. It looks terrible. I would drive
you crazy.

Speaker 2 (12:35):
Yeah, oh no, I've read about this on people on
Reddit that some people use gloves to assemble the legos.
Some people they wash their hands every fifteen minutes because
the oils will get on the shiny parts of the
lego and it makes it duller all right, yeah right, yeah, that's.

Speaker 1 (12:50):
Too far for me.

Speaker 2 (12:51):
I mean, so for the people who have gamers these
significant others. I mean, how do you what would you
say to this?

Speaker 8 (12:56):
I had this situation, but it wasn't to this extreme,
and we weren't married, but we were living together, and
my ex was a super gamer to the point where
I knew the names of the people on the game
that he would be talking to, like I would walk in.

Speaker 1 (13:08):
The crib like what a war machine?

Speaker 5 (13:09):
That was one of his games.

Speaker 1 (13:13):
On the game.

Speaker 8 (13:13):
And but and I to some of the textters point
like he's not out in the street. You know, he's
safely in your house in the mills. He's still active.
But it was like not to this extreme. So my
suggestion to this lady would be talk to your partner,
take away the game for a week and just see
how he adjusts. If he is like sweating and he's

(13:37):
like having withdrawals, then it's an addiction and he needs
to go talk to somebody about it. If he can't
go a week without it, then you all have a
big problem.

Speaker 1 (13:46):
I would say, try.

Speaker 2 (13:46):
That the whole he's not cheating thing or she's not
cheating but is not that is not a good enough justification,
Like I'm being negligent in my relationship.

Speaker 1 (13:56):
I'm ignoring my partner.

Speaker 2 (13:58):
I'm not fulfilling my partner obligation as a as a
member of this relationship.

Speaker 1 (14:03):
But I'm not cheating, so yeah, and I'm not drunk
or doing drugs.

Speaker 8 (14:07):
So I think people's different to it's not a malicious
thing that he's doing.

Speaker 1 (14:11):
He is a malicious thing yet he's doing.

Speaker 8 (14:13):
Really it's a hobby that he's obsessed with, And I
think if you figure out that there may be an
issue that, like a real addiction, then you can work
through that. I don't think she needs to leave her marriage,
is what people are saying. Like if he was cheating,
if he was at the bar, the strip club every night,
then yeah, you got a big, big problem. But this
man is playing video games in the middle of the night,
so maybe he was with you all day. He just

(14:33):
can't sleep, he can't go to sleep. That may be
another thing that he can talk through with a therapist.
I think it's an addiction there. But I just I
don't want her to leave her marriage over this.

Speaker 2 (14:41):
You're right, I would just say there's malice, But I
also I would argue that if she's expressed a concern
and he doesn't adjust his behavior, then there's a problem, yes,
and it may not be rooted and hate, but it
also or dislike. But it's also he's ignoring her, he's
not concerned about her needs. It would sound like Amanda, Hi, Hi, Hey,

(15:07):
what do you want to say? Good morning, welcome, thanks for.

Speaker 1 (15:09):
Listening, good morning.

Speaker 9 (15:11):
I just wanted to say I have a lot of
intake on this. My boyfriend also plays a lot of
video games, and so you know, he got me a
computer and everything, so we actually play video games together
because he was spending a lot of time on it,
and we have games that we played together, and so
we kind of made it like an US thing and
it's worked out so far. It's really fun.

Speaker 2 (15:32):
So basically you had to you had to go over
to his side. You had to either get into his
hobby or you were going to see him. I'm not
trying to minimize, you know what the compromise you come
up with. But it wasn't all play lesson do your thing.
It was you can just do what I'm doing.

Speaker 9 (15:46):
Yeah, because I like to leave by like example, So
I was like, well, if this is something he's into,
then I can be into it. So now he's the
one that comes to like Farmers Markets with me. He'll
go out with me, because it's like a I started
a compromise, so I started the bend and so now
he bends back. So it's worked out pretty well and
we I actually have fun like those games that I
play by myself now and I'm just like, no, I'm

(16:07):
playing by myself.

Speaker 2 (16:07):
Yeah, ways at the tables turn and Amanda, you know
Amanda Killer sixty nine sixty nine on on cod Wait wait,
wait till you become a champion and and you're not
paying attention to him anymore. We'll see how he likes
it then, exactly.

Speaker 9 (16:21):
And that's another thing I wanted to say too, is
if he's not, like, you know, wanting to spend time
with you, like, go spend time with yourself, get all
delld up, go take yourself to dinner. He'll see that
and he'll be like, wait, am I missing out on things?

Speaker 1 (16:32):
And he definitely is not a bad idea. Thank you, Amanda,
have a good day. What do you want to say?

Speaker 10 (16:39):
I'm going to get dragged to hell by the gamer community,
Like I know they're going to come for me at
this very moment. Okay, go ahead, well, but I stay
with my chest because I don't understand this hobby, and
somebody I think texted, no, I really don't, and I
have hobbies too. People probably look at it and go,
I don't understand why or whatever. But someone texted us
in saying that most gamers are in their thirties. So
now is this deeper, Like is this like a childhood thing,

(17:02):
like you didn't get your games when you were a kid,
or you didn't get to play enough when you were
a kid.

Speaker 2 (17:05):
I do it's a distraction. It's a diversion from real life.
And I don't think that's all bad in moderation, the
same way that I think people golf they get their
mind off stuff legos.

Speaker 1 (17:16):
Yeah, well, I mean that's what I'm doing it. I'm
not doing it because I really need.

Speaker 2 (17:19):
A model of a car, you know, or whatever. I
just it's something i've found, it's something I can do
that just I have to think about it and not
whatever else is going on. And that's like literally yesterday,
I'm putting this thing together, and it's my phone's.

Speaker 1 (17:32):
Going ding ding ding ding ding, and.

Speaker 2 (17:34):
I'm not paying any attention because I want to finish
that section of what I was doing, and that is
an okay thing for me because otherwise that phone goes thing,
I grab it and I attend to that, and that
is that is a slippery slope.

Speaker 5 (17:45):
You ignored me.

Speaker 1 (17:46):
That's abuse. Why did you ask me?

Speaker 8 (17:48):
Yeah, I sent you.

Speaker 1 (17:49):
I was calling you, but you was doing lego. You
did not right now.

Speaker 10 (17:54):
But yes, that makes sense, I guess because everyone's entitled
to their their fun. I guess if legos makes you
happy and it's fun and it distracts you from the world, cool,
But I guess the moderation is key, right for anything
you do in life. He's sitting all night like you're
thirteen years old, like your parents are, you know, like
got the link it over your head, parents are coming
in and get your game boy whatever.

Speaker 1 (18:12):
Like that's too much.

Speaker 2 (18:13):
Yeah, I mean if you're not you know, bathing and
eating and going to work and your relationship and whatever else.

Speaker 1 (18:19):
Hey, Gene, you live this thing. Good morning.

Speaker 11 (18:21):
J Yeah. I have my first husband and he was
in med school you name it. I mean, the whole
world coming for him and gonna look good. And he
started gaming and it was all the time, and you know,
traps therapy. You know, that's a big thing for her
to do. But if he won't do it, it's not

(18:42):
going to get me better. I mean, it's it's sad,
but it is an addiction. When it's like interfering with
your life. It's no different than the bottle. It's no
different than staying out all night. It's the same exact thing.
It's just been a different task. Yeah, it's not even
a good way. Addiction is addiction, and that's what's going on.
And if she doesn't get any help. You know, she's

(19:03):
looking at three years now, she's looking at fifteen or
twenty because it's stop.

Speaker 2 (19:08):
You left your husband over this. It says, yes, I did. Wow, Wow,
I'm sorry that happened to you. But I mean I again,
I think you're right. I mean it may be different,
you know, chemically or whatever. But if if someone has
behavior that's detrimental to your relationship and you try and
address it and it doesn't change, I don't know what
you're supposed to do.

Speaker 11 (19:30):
Yeah, it's either you can accept it for what it
is and stay, because all she can do is control
what she does. And she can either accept it and
hope it changes it may it may not, or.

Speaker 7 (19:41):
She can go.

Speaker 1 (19:42):
Yeah.

Speaker 11 (19:42):
I mean, if he's not gonna she can't make him
do anything. And if it's not, if the relationship isn't
worth it for him, then she you know, needs decided
she wants to stay with him or not. You know
what happens if they have kids.

Speaker 2 (19:55):
Yeah, well fair enough, and Jean, thank you, thanks for colling,
thanks for starting to have a good day. You know,
if I could quote the great Mel Robbins from the
Let Them Theory, yeah, your friend Robins. Yeah, well she's
a try Yeah. We tried to get her on and
we were denied. She's too busy.

Speaker 7 (20:12):
Oh yeah.

Speaker 2 (20:12):
I took about five seconds for them to say not happening.
But she does kind of address this at the end
of the book, talking about you know, people's behavior, like
trying to get someone to work out was an example
she used, Like if you have a partner who just
lays on the couch all day and won't get in shape,
and you've tried to express that you care about their
health and well being whatever, first of all, you got

(20:33):
to model the proper behavior, which would be then to
maybe do some of these things that you want him
to do yourself. But you cannot ride people like you
simply cannot ride someone and give ultimatums and make threats
and the rest of it. It's like, you know, maybe
she does. I mean, maybe there's something too getting dulled
up and going out with her friends and not riding
him on it all I see you later and going

(20:54):
out and living life and having a good time and
doing the things that she wants to do without him,
And either he's gonna see that and go Okay, wait
a minute.

Speaker 1 (21:02):
You know she's not on me about this? Why not,
you know?

Speaker 2 (21:06):
Is why all of a sudden Is she not all
over me about changing my behavior?

Speaker 1 (21:10):
Is she moving on? Is she do?

Speaker 2 (21:11):
I need to try harder, you know. And again it's
not about him, it's about you. But at the same time,
and if you do that long enough and there's zero adjustment,
zero change, zero motivation, then you got to go. But
I mean, I think you start by again. If every
day you come home you're like, do you have a
video game?

Speaker 1 (21:26):
Again?

Speaker 2 (21:26):
That's not going to motivate anybody to change. Now, look
at me, I'm basically a motivational speaker. Now, thanks Mail Robbins.
I'm gonna give a Ted talk soon. Hey, Kara, let
them Hello?

Speaker 7 (21:38):
Hi?

Speaker 1 (21:38):
How are you?

Speaker 2 (21:39):
What are you so just to recap. I'm sorry to
interrupt you, but just to recap your stay go. This
woman is married to a guy who appears to be
addicted to video games. He cares more about the video
games than he does about spending time with her.

Speaker 1 (21:49):
What do you think?

Speaker 12 (21:50):
I mean?

Speaker 11 (21:51):
Girl?

Speaker 3 (21:51):
Look, it does not matter if he's not in the clubs.
It does not matter if you're not cheating with her
and doing drugs. The end result is this saying he
is not hanging out with her like a married man
should be. And seriously, who takes a grown man seriously
who plays video games all day?

Speaker 1 (22:09):
And a lost me?

Speaker 5 (22:10):
He lost me?

Speaker 1 (22:12):
Well, what do you mean video games all day?

Speaker 2 (22:14):
I wouldn't take a person seriously who plays video games
all day instead of attending their needs and their relationship.

Speaker 3 (22:20):
Who could Now she can jump on the bandwagon and
get into video games with him, But then what happens
when they have kids? Yeah? I mean she's got two, three,
four kids with him included.

Speaker 11 (22:34):
Well, they don't make it a family.

Speaker 1 (22:37):
Thing the kids.

Speaker 2 (22:39):
Is he even involved in that process? You know, because
he's involved with.

Speaker 3 (22:43):
Her right now, how can he be involved with them?

Speaker 1 (22:47):
Yeah? I agree?

Speaker 3 (22:48):
Girls, gotta go, You gotta go.

Speaker 1 (22:51):
Yeah, have a good day.

Speaker 6 (22:53):
Have a good I was with her, but I think
it's okay to sometimes take someone seriously who plays video
games all day and all night constantly. No, I'm with
I think it's okay to sometimes do that, Like it's
okay to indulge. My issue, which is what she started with,
is going well, at least I'm not doing X, Y
or Z. No, that was what you committed to when
we got into a relationship. You the bars on the floor.

(23:14):
You are giving me the bare minimum. You owe me that,
so to go. I'm not doing this, so I should
be allowed to do this. That is completely unfair, and
that's manipulation.

Speaker 2 (23:22):
I don't care if it's video games or working out.
I don't even care if it's a healthy activity. If
you're doing something all day and all night, you're obsessed.

Speaker 5 (23:29):
I could be worse, Yeah, for sure. But I'm saying
you can have days where you do that and indulge.

Speaker 8 (23:34):
I'm okay with that, true, because I mean it's like
your kid doing like mom. I could be a crackhead
rabbit Banks rob Banks these days.

Speaker 1 (23:47):
It's not arm Well, I don't know. I'd much rather
you do that.

Speaker 2 (23:49):
You see what I'm saying, Yeah, we're gonna move on
to Entertainment Report is up next, five hundred bucks with
Kiki Let's thand ten minutes to a if you could
beat her in five questions, Freend's Show.

Speaker 1 (24:00):
Calin's Entertainment Report, and he's on the Bread Show.

Speaker 6 (24:03):
Ooh, I was getting a little distracted with our unfair conversation.
Dochi is not only one of the biggest rappers right now,
but she can also dress honey While headlining California's Frostfest
over the weekend, this gray she was wearing this like
gray striped top and skirt and it was matching with
a ton of buttons on it, and it was actually
designed by a fan. So this all started back in

(24:24):
February when the fan who goes by Handsome Gurley on
social wrote hello, I made the most beautiful matching set
with matching headband, saying it was her dream for Dochi
to wear it.

Speaker 5 (24:34):
Months later, that dream came true.

Speaker 6 (24:36):
Following her set, Dochi wrote on x Stanford show fit
by at Handsome Girly it came out so cute, babes,
thank you and she absolutely freaked out, which is super cool.
The white wrapper mount Rushmore is trending online after someone
literally created a replica of Mount Rushmore with white rappers.

Speaker 5 (24:54):
So from left to right.

Speaker 6 (24:56):
It was Eminem, Mack Miller, Paul Wall, and Russ.

Speaker 5 (25:02):
Now do some some of you probably don't even know
who Russ is? Do you know who Russ?

Speaker 1 (25:06):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (25:07):
Yeah, handsomer best on Earth.

Speaker 6 (25:09):
I mean, I like Russ, but he doesn't belong on
the white rapper Mount rush Rushmore.

Speaker 5 (25:13):
Jesus, I don't know. Obviously, people were arguing in the comments.

Speaker 6 (25:18):
MGK was arguing over on X when he wrote me,
not on the white rapper Mount Rushmore is blasphemy.

Speaker 5 (25:25):
I don't know if it is. Baby.

Speaker 6 (25:27):
I saw some other names in the comments post Malone,
Bubba Sparks, Beastie Boys, and some people were saying Drake
his mom is white, so I don't know. Right on
the Mount Rushmore, he's great, But is he on the
Mount Rushmore?

Speaker 5 (25:44):
I don't know.

Speaker 13 (25:44):
And then people Macklemore on Mount Rushmore.

Speaker 1 (25:51):
I mean a great the guy puts on a great show,
but I don't know.

Speaker 5 (25:56):
Okay, where's bad? Baby y?

Speaker 7 (26:02):
Right?

Speaker 6 (26:03):
There was one Vanilla Ice fan in the comments, so
shout out to you.

Speaker 5 (26:07):
I don't know.

Speaker 6 (26:07):
And then somebody was saying, No, it's Eminem slim shady,
you know all of his.

Speaker 5 (26:11):
Alter Oh, I don't know.

Speaker 6 (26:13):
Speaking of Posty real quick, he sounds like he's cooking
up some more country music. While speaking about how kind
Nashville has been to him since he started working on
his twenty twenty four f one trillion, he says, every
time he gets together with his buddies like Ernest Hardy,
Thomas Rhett, we just have fun.

Speaker 5 (26:27):
We sit around and f and talk and make songs.

Speaker 6 (26:30):
And I'm pretty excited for the new record already, he says,
he's already done two trips to the amazing city.

Speaker 5 (26:35):
Jason, what the hell are you doing?

Speaker 1 (26:37):
Sorry?

Speaker 6 (26:38):
Okay, I thought you were waving at key like you
do in the cameras. For the project that was made,
he has thirty five songs probably, and it's just a
matter of which one's rock and which one sock. So
I don't know what the hell that means, but he's
making more country music. By the way, if you missed

Speaker 1 (27:00):
Jessica said video games are being demonized here. I don't know.

Speaker 2 (27:02):
I don't think so. I don't know one's demonizing video
gamers as a whole. I think it's his moderation. It's
it's you can't let the games get in the way
of your life obligations. You made a promise to someone
to be in a copaesthetic relationship.
