Speaker 4 (01:17):
K We're talking a brat wedding, a thirty third birthday
party and Cold Place first concert sends the cheating scandal.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
Nay talk them nut, Yeah, they talk better than they
sided tell me.
Speaker 1 (01:30):
These are the radio blogs on the Fresh Show.
Speaker 2 (01:33):
I wonder if some people had tickets, they're like, Nope,
not not going. Well, we'll go somewhere else, babe.
Speaker 4 (01:40):
That's how you know that you're the side piece that
they're like, never mind, we're not going to cold Play.
Speaker 1 (01:44):
Oh yeah, about that, We're not gonna be able to go.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
Sorry, Let's go somewhere more privately, hotel room in another state, somewhere.
Audio journals like we're writing in our diaries, except we
say them aloud.
Speaker 1 (01:54):
We call them blogs. Kailin go deer blog.
Speaker 4 (01:58):
So I feel like doing lately, and by lately, I
mean like the last five to seven years is going
to weddings. I go to a lot of weddings. It's
kind of my second job. And you know, we've seen
the changes and the trends evolve. We've talked about on
the show. You know, do you give a cash gift?
Do you still stick with the registry?
Speaker 5 (02:17):
You know? And I think think things have evolved.
Speaker 4 (02:20):
So one trend I have noticed is that not a
lot of people, some people still do will bring their
cards to the actual wedding. Typically they'll mail it before
or afterwards, which I feel like.
Speaker 5 (02:32):
Is nice, especially if it's out of town. You don't
have to lug that whole box home.
Speaker 4 (02:37):
But I know, you know, for the Nanas and the Aunties,
they still want to bring their card and put it
in a box. Well, I prefer to send it later,
but I do like to get a good card, write
something in there, and give a little cash.
Speaker 5 (02:48):
I will always give cash for a wedding.
Speaker 4 (02:51):
My boyfriend always wants to send the cash via Venmo
or Zelle. And I think we're a little too lax,
a little too informal. I don't know what you guys think,
but I know some people are doing this. It just
makes me feel a little icky to just like send
you some cash.
Speaker 5 (03:12):
You know for your.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
Wedding because I send people money like when they when
they like, buy me breakfast, right, you know I don't Yeah, yeah,
I think it's a little informal. It's like, oh here,
here's some more was like, it's like throwing money at someone.
Oh yeah, here's money here whatever, and it takes two
seconds and there's no real effort involved. Yeah, I don't
think we're there yet for weddings.
Speaker 5 (03:34):
No, I don't think so.
Speaker 4 (03:35):
Now, there were people in between the at the wedding
I was at last, and between the church and the
party that were running to buy their cards and stuff.
Then I'm like, you don't need to just mail it afterwards.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
As long as you do it, because trust me, we
all know people will remember if you don't do it.
Everyone remembers the people who didn't give gifts. Right or wrong,
everybody remembers the people who didn't give gifts.
Speaker 5 (03:56):
I've noticed that I haven't really noticed that.
Speaker 4 (03:59):
And I and our friends that I've heard talk crap
about like wedding gift situations, I'll give them a little
more because I very much don't want to be talking no, and.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
Well, I don't think that we should have to give
based on what we think it are. Like I've heard
We've been over this a million times, but I've heard
the thing where it's like, you should give the amount
of money that you think it cost for you and
your guests to attend. Now, I'll give you whatever, because
I might, I might want to give you more than
I think your wedding cost. I don't know. It's not
my job to pay for myself at your wedding, no boss, no,
(04:29):
no no. I do think people will judge you based
on what they've done for you in the past.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
Like my mom is like this.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
My mom, My mom is given to cousins graduations and
friends kids graduations, and she remembers who gave to us,
and she met my grandma, my nana was really about this,
and then she remembers who thanked her and who didn't. Oh,
that's a big one, mom. The thank you is a
big one from my mom. If she sends you something
(04:56):
and you don't say thank you in any form, she
doesn't like that, even if it's I don't know, you
were supposed to send a gift because it was a graduation.
You were supposed to send a gift because it was
a wedding. She wants to thank you, and she'll remember
if you didn't do it. So these are all the
things I think people consider. But I don't know that
a zel. You can't just zell. I can just zell
you fifty bucks at your birthday and go here.
Speaker 4 (05:16):
I don't love it. And well, by the way, I
do always give more if I have a date with me,
regardless you. I don't think you should pay for plates.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
You give on behalf of because there were two of you. Yeah, yeah, no,
I think that makes sense.
Speaker 4 (05:27):
Pee would you be You're the only married person in
the room. Would you be offended if someone zell do you?
Speaker 6 (05:32):
No?
Speaker 5 (05:32):
I've had people do that really.
Speaker 6 (05:34):
A family friend actually did because she lives in Florida
and she couldn't go to my Vegas wedding.
Speaker 5 (05:37):
I totally understand. So she zelled me and I thought
that was really sweet.
Speaker 6 (05:40):
Oh I don't care, But I also I get the
feeling I wouldn't do it personally. I'm not there yet,
but I think the next twenty maybe thirty years, I
think that's going to be the new.
Speaker 4 (05:49):
Trend because millennials don't have checks, like we just don't
have them.
Speaker 5 (05:52):
We're Shelley, But you know.
Speaker 4 (05:54):
I just I know it's hard, and I usually give cash,
so I hand it to the person like direct if
I see them after or whatever. But I don't know
if I'm here's what's in the line.
Speaker 5 (06:05):
Like ingrats and the rest of your life.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
That's a good question, because you're right. I mean, I
guess I have I have to dig for my checks. Yeah,
you'll find them because I have so rarely use them. Yeah,
and then I'll put money in the envelope because if
it gets lost and that's gone. But yeah, I don't
know what you do, because you're right. I mean everyone,
that is really how it's going. But at the same time,
it's just so impersonal. It's like you could send a
card and then wait a few days and then zell
(06:30):
and hope the card and the zell land at the
same time.
Speaker 1 (06:33):
But like, I don't know.
Speaker 5 (06:34):
That's what you say, like, hey, did you get myzelf?
Speaker 1 (06:36):
You know what I mean?
Speaker 5 (06:36):
Like you feel silly.
Speaker 6 (06:38):
But I can also argue right and say that some
people do like an online account or a wedding whatever.
It's called a honeymoon fund, and some people will give
their gift.
Speaker 5 (06:46):
That way is done.
Speaker 1 (06:47):
That of the same almost almost.
Speaker 2 (06:49):
Kind of you're saying, that's how I want you to
give it, Like, yeah, you know, yeah, that's a nice
thing to do.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
Though.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
I think that's a nice thing to do if you're
having a wedding, is have some form of like digital
way that I can do it, because that way I'm
doing the efficient thing. But then I don't feel like
it's informal because you're saying, do it this way.
Speaker 5 (07:08):
I agree.
Speaker 3 (07:09):
Yeah, it's also tacky to like put your your cash
app code on the invite or something like I got yeah.
Speaker 5 (07:16):
People do that now.
Speaker 3 (07:17):
They'll put like happy birthday to me, and then they'll
put their cash app in the corner like that's so tag. Yeah, no,
I don't know, but actually I don't care how you
give me the money. Okay, cash app means it you
put it in my hand.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
It just seems like, I know how fast I gotta
get some money. Oh my god, I get on my
app boom boom boom.
Speaker 7 (07:37):
Here.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
So I don't know, here's two hundred bucks whatever. It
just seems so sort of like an afterthought, you know
what I mean. But I guess it's better than nothing.
Speaker 1 (07:45):
Yeah, what do you guys do?
Speaker 5 (07:46):
With the cards after Paullein, Do you still have your
wedding cards?
Speaker 2 (07:49):
I do.
Speaker 5 (07:50):
I'm such a like little dork.
Speaker 6 (07:51):
I keep all my cards birthday and I have communion
cards for my Baptists.
Speaker 1 (07:55):
I have it all, don't Okay?
Speaker 5 (07:56):
Yeah, I like to look at that stuff later, So
be classy. Get a car from the store. Yes, the
cards are expensive too, I got to that.
Speaker 1 (08:04):
Yeah, ninety nine cents.
Speaker 5 (08:06):
Yeah, yeah, that's the value area.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
The last card I bought was seven dollars.
Speaker 2 (08:10):
It works's ever been left waiting.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
By the phone.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
It's the Fred Show. Iris, Good morning, welcome to the program.
How are you good?
Speaker 1 (08:22):
How are you?
Speaker 2 (08:22):
We're doing great? Thanks for being here. What's going on
with this dude, Matt? We got to know how you
met about any dates you've been on. Give us some
context and backstory, all that good stuff, and then what's
going on now?
Speaker 8 (08:34):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (08:35):
Thank you?
Speaker 9 (08:37):
So yeah, we met on we met online, we met
on Facebook dating.
Speaker 1 (08:41):
Actually, so about that one too often.
Speaker 5 (08:45):
I heard there's a lot of people in there, though, I.
Speaker 1 (08:48):
Said, you know, is it like I don't.
Speaker 3 (08:52):
I don't know how I know this, but I saw
that there was a part on there that you can
make it. You don't know anybody like it will never
pop up in anyone that you know.
Speaker 1 (08:59):
Oh that's a good idea.
Speaker 2 (09:01):
Not that anyone will be surprised to see me in
any form of a dating app. I mean, I'm single,
but I guess if you weren't single and you were
trying to poke around on that thing anyway. Okay, so
Facebook dating, we don't hear a lot about that, but
you you you.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
Met someone on there?
Speaker 9 (09:14):
Yeah? No, and and like actually went out on a date,
which is rare. Like meeting someone you know online and
then actually having it results in a in a real
life date feels feels pretty rare.
Speaker 2 (09:29):
So why is it rare? Do you not date very much?
Or why why is it rare for you to go
on a date?
Speaker 9 (09:33):
I mean, I feel like dating these days, especially online
dating in general, is really hard to actually meet someone
who wants to meet in real life. I'm also a
single mom, which complicates things, right, so it's like two strikes.
Speaker 2 (09:49):
Yeah, that could be hard to to coordinate. All right,
So you met this guy, you had a great date,
you felt like everything went really well, things kind of
came together, except you have not heard from him since then,
and that s bugging you as it would anybody.
Speaker 10 (10:03):
Yeah, it feels especially weird because I have to say
it was a pretty great date, Like it wasn't just okay,
it was a really good date.
Speaker 9 (10:13):
So to not hear anything okay, they have him ghost
me after that just feels very odd. He'd also been
really responsive, like up to the date, you know what
I mean, like as we were planning it, as we
were talking, you know, texting, So I okay, yeah, just
it feels odd. It feels very odd.
Speaker 2 (10:33):
Well, let me call Uh, We're going to play a song.
Come back. We'll call Matt. You'll be on the phone.
We're going to ask these questions at some point. You
welcome to jump in on the call, and I hope iris. Yes,
all right, let's call Matt. You guys met on Facebook dating,
which is not a dating app that we hear about
very often on waiting by the phone. But you guys connected,
You went out, you had great conversation, you really felt
(10:53):
like the date went well, and you don't date a
whole lot, so you were excited about the prospect here.
But you have not heard from they sends the date,
and you want to know why that is it?
Speaker 1 (11:03):
All right?
Speaker 2 (11:04):
Let's call him now. Good luck, Iris, Thank you. Hell,
Hi is Matt.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
Yeah it is Matt. Hey Matt, good morning. My name
is Fred.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
I'm calling from the Fred's Show, the Morning radio Show,
and I have to tell you that we are on
the radio right now, and I would need your permission
to continue with the call.
Speaker 1 (11:27):
Can which for just a second on the show?
Speaker 11 (11:29):
Uh yeah, I guess. I mean it's a little weird.
You said you're a radio show.
Speaker 2 (11:35):
I know it's a little awkward. Thanks for listening, by
the way, But no, we're calling on behalf of a
woman named Iris, who I guess you met recently on
maybe on Facebook dating or something, and then you guys
went on a date.
Speaker 12 (11:47):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I mean I went out with her.
Speaker 11 (11:50):
What's right going on? What's a question here?
Speaker 1 (11:53):
Okay? Oh, we're going to go to the we love
bossing over here? Okay.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
Well, she called us, Matt and told us I had
a lot of nice things to say about you, said
that she enjoyed meeting you and enjoyed the date and
was hoping to hear from you again. Says you were
very communicative before the date and and she's confused as
to why you haven't reached out or responded to her.
Speaker 1 (12:14):
Since you guys went out.
Speaker 12 (12:16):
Uh yeah, okay, I mean it's okay, it's a little awkward, but.
Speaker 11 (12:22):
You know, Iris was was really nice.
Speaker 12 (12:25):
I mean I really liked her when we were talking
on Facebook dating. We went on the date, the conversation
was good. I mean, we had good banter, you know.
Speaker 11 (12:32):
And she's gorgeous. She's absolutely beautiful.
Speaker 1 (12:35):
That's the problem. This all checks out. What's the problem. Then, Yeah, okay.
Speaker 12 (12:39):
I knew that she's a single mom, you know, and
she doesn't get out much for the dating. So but
that didn't bother me, you know, I it was fine
hearing her talk about her son. She was very proud,
and I was totally fine. At the end of the date,
you know, we were I drove her home. We were
kissing in my car before we you know, kind of
(12:59):
said goodbye, and things were getting hot and heavy. But
then she told me like, okay, well, unfortunately I can't.
I wish I could bring you up, but my son's
sleeping in my bed. Okay, okay, And when I you know,
she she's yeah, she said her son was sleeping in
(13:19):
her bed. But she already told me that her son
is seventeen and in high school and he sleeps in
bed with her every night, and so that.
Speaker 1 (13:34):
Oh no, it's in my mind where I was in
my bed.
Speaker 2 (13:36):
I'm like, oh, mom's out, kids five, six, seven years old,
somehody that you know mom's in yeah, oh boy, okay.
Speaker 1 (13:45):
Oh my.
Speaker 5 (13:47):
If we want to go down this bed?
Speaker 1 (13:50):
So anyway, like.
Speaker 11 (13:52):
You guys agree here that.
Speaker 2 (13:55):
Seen or not. I didn't know where this is going.
I didn't know in my I didn't know if maybe
you're going to wind up in like the kid's bed
or something like. I didn't know where this was going
because okay, no, no, let me bring iris in. I
got iris. You have a lot of explaining to do. Girl,
Like your seventeen year old son sleeps in your bed
(14:16):
and you're there.
Speaker 9 (14:17):
Yes he does, there is Look, it's it's complicated.
Speaker 1 (14:23):
Sounds like it, you know.
Speaker 9 (14:24):
I feel like when you're a parent, there're certain thing
that you have to do for your child. And what
would be.
Speaker 11 (14:35):
If your seventeen year old sleeps in your bed every night?
Speaker 1 (14:38):
That's issue.
Speaker 2 (14:39):
I don't immediately take this to like a criminal place
or anything like that. It's in my mind. It's well,
I mean, we live in a. Yeah, sadly, this is
the world we live in. But I guess I'm really
concerned about boundaries here, Like seventeen years old, there's quite
the attachment. I mean, what happens I mean, what is
(15:01):
he a junior in high school? Senior in high school?
Speaker 1 (15:04):
Yeah? I mean like what?
Speaker 2 (15:05):
Yeah, like what happens when it's time to go to
college and move out and things like that. I mean,
it seems like, you know, help me out here.
Speaker 9 (15:14):
First of all, he's a he's a rising senior.
Speaker 8 (15:17):
Second of all, look, I I'm not I'm not trying
to get feisty here, but I'm very surprised that that's
the reason, especially because you're.
Speaker 9 (15:30):
You're not a parent, and you don't understand and there's
a lot of history and context here that I'm not
going to go into about my son's means, and that
that would be a deal breaker for you how I
choose to parent my child.
Speaker 1 (15:50):
Wait a minute, you can't.
Speaker 2 (15:52):
Honestly, look, no one's judging you or whatever your story is,
but you can't possibly tell me that that is something
that someone who you're rolling to date would find to
be you know, commonplace, and like, so, what happens if
this relationship goes somewhere, we have to he has to
be out of the house then, like because he's taking
your spot in the bed, like the do what do
(16:13):
you do?
Speaker 9 (16:14):
If things were to progress, it would be a while
before you meet my son, for you know, obvious reasons.
I'm very protective of him. I thought that was understood
in terms of like intimacy. There are ways to work
around that. Bedtime is our special time. But you know
(16:39):
their afternoons, there mourning, there are other.
Speaker 1 (16:45):
I can't.
Speaker 11 (16:46):
I'm sorry, guys, I can't.
Speaker 12 (16:48):
I mean, this is this is the dilemma, and I
think that I am going to withhold the judgment, but.
Speaker 1 (16:56):
Just on we're going to get into studies now. I'm
not sure.
Speaker 2 (17:01):
Honestly, I don't know if this is the son's thing
or the moms. I don't know who like a whole Yeah,
I don't, And I'm sorry for whatever you've been through
or however we got here, genuinely, But I can also,
in fairness, I can see why somebody from the outside
would look at this and say where do I fit in? Oh?
Speaker 9 (17:17):
I mean, I would just think, especially because we did
have such a great date and you did seem really
supportive of me being a single momb which I don't know,
maybe that was, maybe that was, but uh no, Yeah,
you are welcome.
Speaker 12 (17:36):
You're thinking me as a back guy, but I'm I'm
just doing.
Speaker 11 (17:39):
What I know is right for me.
Speaker 2 (17:41):
Yeah, I think I can understand that you're Yeah, I'm sorry.
Speaker 12 (17:45):
Max, somebody finds it understandable. I and I totally support
that you are supportive of your son, just not in
that way. And granted, like you said, I'm not a
parent myself, but I think that I am justified in
not wanting to be a part of that situation.
Speaker 2 (18:05):
Yeah, in fairness, there were a lot of single moms
listening out going Okay, honestly, I'm not even gonna argue
with you, but so it's not for Matt. Iris. I'll
ask the question, Matt, would you like to go out
with her again? We'll pay for it, maybe a hotel
room too, I don't know. In the middle of the day, didn't.
Speaker 1 (18:32):
Look Iris.
Speaker 2 (18:32):
I'm I wish you the best, and I just you know,
I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't know, I
don't know, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (18:40):
I just don't.
Speaker 2 (18:41):
I don't know. I don't know. And so that's not
he's not going to be interested. And Iris, I wish
you the best in whatever's going on. And uh and
and thank you so much for sharing with that entertainment report.
Speaker 1 (18:54):
He is on the pread show.
Speaker 4 (18:56):
Cool boyfriend Man Chris Martin jokingly warned fans that they
they might be about to end up on the JumboTron
during their first concert since that whole cheating scandal that
broke I believe it was the first one while playing
in Wisconsin over the weekend.
Speaker 5 (19:09):
Instead of just going right into the section of the.
Speaker 4 (19:12):
Show where they show various couples on the big screen,
he wore the crowd what was coming. He said, we'd
like to say hello to some of you in the
crowd and put some of you on the big screen.
How we're going to do that is we're going to
use our cameras and put some of you up on
the big screen.
Speaker 5 (19:28):
He reiterated it.
Speaker 4 (19:29):

Let's just do it in one everything I gotta do
just one day, just one.
Speaker 5 (20:42):
Day, get it all done.
Speaker 1 (20:43):
Yeah, yeah, just bang it out.
Speaker 5 (20:44):
They're doing that. I guess it's a new trend. I
don't know.
Speaker 4 (20:47):
Then there were rumors that she picked her wedding date
based on when Taylor could attend her.
Speaker 5 (20:52):
People say that's not true, but I kind of like.
Speaker 1 (20:54):
Could believe that.
Speaker 4 (20:55):
I got to see that maybe being true.
Speaker 5 (20:59):
And speaking of Lenny thing. Lastly, it was a brat wedding, y'all.
Speaker 4 (21:02):
Charlie XCX and the nineteen seventy five drummer George Daniel
tied the not Saturday in a low key London town
hall ceremony. She wore a short Vivian Westwood. They dj
their own reception and yes, there will be a second
wedding planned in Sicily. I think I saw they were
on vacation there, so they must be doing some planning.
She even did a little TikTok to one of her
own songs right before she married him, and it was very,
(21:26):
very cute.
Speaker 2 (21:26):
That's only the only way that I can understand a
multi day wedding is if you have to get married
for some reason, like in town hall, yeah, town hall
in the square.
Speaker 1 (21:37):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (21:38):
If you gotta go to the Justice of the Piece
for some reason and you invite a few people and
we show up a week because we have to formally
get it done, or maybe you go off and do
it and then we have a wedding. But that's the
only way I'm going in too, and we got to
separate them. There can't be one consecutive weekend. It's too
much to ask of one person. It's too much.
Speaker 1 (21:58):
I'm very triggered, but I don't want to tig it.
That just too much.
Speaker 2 (22:01):
Okay, all right, good to know if you can make
it on a on a Saturday. Ideally if you could,
and I understand it's little cheaper on other days, but like,
you know, if you love me, let's have a Saturday
wedding just for you.
Speaker 5 (22:16):
Fred.
Speaker 2 (22:17):
Yeah, well, because Friday can be a little tricky because
people have to work, and especially if it's a destination wedding. Now,
I got ticket day off to get there, and then
what happens if i'm you know, my flight's running late
or something like that. I gotta get the day before.
I can't miss it. And then a Sunday wedding means
I can't. Yeah, I don't know, I can't really partake.
Speaker 5 (22:34):
And okay, any other stipulations for you.
Speaker 2 (22:38):
Want to leave?
Speaker 3 (22:38):
Right after you say, I right say, I'm gonna have
the chicken parmesan.
Speaker 2 (22:43):
About the door the chicken barbage. Hopefully you have chicken parmejo. Yeah,
as long as there's no that's the asterisk. If there's
chicken barbiago, then then you can have it on a
Thursday if you want.
Speaker 1 (22:58):
If there's chicken barbigan.
Speaker 5 (22:59):
There, chicken, I'm marketing all right, perfect, shout it down.
I have all my notes down, and I've never in.
Speaker 2 (23:06):
My life or anyone referred to it a chicken partment. Joah,
you know, okay anyway?
Speaker 4 (23:11):
And okay, if you are new, or if you miss
any part of the show and want to catch up,
type the Friend Show on demand on the free I
heard where.
Speaker 2 (23:18):
The show is brought to you by Chicken Patma jo
And if you want me to go to your Thursday wedding,
Chick and Papa Jean better.
Speaker 1 (23:24):
Be on the minu. Do you have what it takes
to battle show biz? Shelley in the Showbiz Showdown? Hey, Hi,
show Shelley.
Speaker 7 (23:36):
Hi.
Speaker 2 (23:38):
Let's get Brittany on here. Hi Brittany, Hey Brittany, good morning.
Speaker 1 (23:43):
How are you?
Speaker 7 (23:45):
I'm good?
Speaker 1 (23:45):
How are you great? Welcome? Fun fact about you?
Speaker 2 (23:47):
Ease what.
Speaker 7 (23:50):
I'm actually getting married? September twentieth Okay.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
Now, hold on, what day in the week is that Saturday?
Speaker 1 (23:56):
Thank you? You have thank you?
Speaker 8 (23:58):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (23:58):
What is our chicken part on the menu?
Speaker 7 (24:01):
There's not, but it's actually you're gonna hate it because
it's an all weekend event.
Speaker 1 (24:05):
Oh hold on, hold on, hold on a second.
Speaker 2 (24:08):
Explained to me, Now why does it need to be
in all week like what what is happening? So if
I were to be invited, then explain to me, like
what what are we doing?
Speaker 7 (24:16):
So our thought process was, you spend so much on
a wedding and I can't fathom the idea of it
being one day. So I we like camping. We're very
out doorsy people. So one of our things was, if
we're going to make it an all weekend event, why
not go camping? That way kids are involved. We both
have a lot of kids in our family and a
lot of venues.
Speaker 11 (24:36):
We looked at.
Speaker 7 (24:37):
Their max was like one fifty and that just didn't work.
So we decided to do a camping event. So we
actually basically rented out like half of a campground and
so we have our own little section and so everybody
that's staying there gets to see all weekends. So the
kids are involved, and then that Saturday, we're actually getting
married at a golf course because we like the golf too,
so we're going to like golf during the day and
(24:59):
so to be it's.
Speaker 2 (24:59):
Going to be all right, Okay, I see that. Now
what if I don't What if I were invited, I
don't want a camp can I do? I just show
up to the wedding then, yeah, so there's cabins.
Speaker 7 (25:10):
Yeah, if you don't want to do that whole weekend,
you don't. Some people are staying hotels too. There's a
casino nearby, so a lot of people like to gamble
phone they can do that too.
Speaker 5 (25:18):
It's fun.
Speaker 1 (25:18):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (25:19):
Well, and I suppose if you're making me go somewhere
for your wedding, then we may as well have options.
But if it's in my town and I got to
show up to three different things on two different nights,
I'm like, you know, it's too much.
Speaker 1 (25:32):
It's too much for me too. You're right, I don't.
Speaker 7 (25:36):
So it made sense.
Speaker 2 (25:39):
But if, like, if we're doing it like an excursion,
why then then I understand that I got that. Well,
if you're making me go to Mexico, you're making me
go to campground you're making me pitch a ten. You're
making me grill, get out there, kill mountain food. I mean,
you're making me survive. I got to repel down the
mountain to get to the same whatever. Then okay, fine,
(26:00):
but I don't know you know what. I'm just bitching
to bitch because I don't. I don't get any saying this,
and I if you invited me, i'd go. So it's fine.
Let's play the game. Five questions, four hundred and fifty bucks.
I think you should let her win this because she's
getting married at a campground and she needs some money.
Speaker 5 (26:16):
Okay, I can't promise. All right, good luck.
Speaker 2 (26:19):
Shelley shows no mercy to anyone. Go to the sound
if you go, Brittany question number one. A new book
claims Gwyneth Paltrow was upset about Brad Pitt's marriage to
this friend's actress.
Speaker 5 (26:33):

K We're talking a brat wedding, a thirty third birthday
party and Cold Place first concert sends the cheating scandal.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
Nay talk them nut, Yeah, they talk better than they
sided tell me.
Speaker 1 (01:30):
These are the radio blogs on the Fresh Show.
Speaker 2 (01:33):
I wonder if some people had tickets, they're like, Nope,
not not going. Well, we'll go somewhere else, babe.
Speaker 4 (01:40):
That's how you know that you're the side piece that
they're like, never mind, we're not going to cold Play.
Speaker 1 (01:44):
Oh yeah, about that, We're not gonna be able to go.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
Sorry, Let's go somewhere more privately, hotel room in another state, somewhere.
Audio journals like we're writing in our diaries, except we
say them aloud.
Speaker 1 (01:54):
We call them blogs. Kailin go deer blog.
Speaker 4 (01:58):
So I feel like doing lately, and by lately, I
mean like the last five to seven years is going
to weddings. I go to a lot of weddings. It's
kind of my second job. And you know, we've seen
the changes and the trends evolve. We've talked about on
the show. You know, do you give a cash gift?
Do you still stick with the registry?
Speaker 5 (02:17):
You know? And I think think things have evolved.
Speaker 4 (02:20):
So one trend I have noticed is that not a
lot of people, some people still do will bring their
cards to the actual wedding. Typically they'll mail it before
or afterwards, which I feel like.
Speaker 5 (02:32):
Is nice, especially if it's out of town. You don't
have to lug that whole box home.
Speaker 4 (02:37):
But I know, you know, for the Nanas and the Aunties,
they still want to bring their card and put it
in a box. Well, I prefer to send it later,
but I do like to get a good card, write
something in there, and give a little cash.
Speaker 5 (02:48):
I will always give cash for a wedding.
Speaker 4 (02:51):
My boyfriend always wants to send the cash via Venmo
or Zelle. And I think we're a little too lax,
a little too informal. I don't know what you guys think,
but I know some people are doing this. It just
makes me feel a little icky to just like send
you some cash.
Speaker 5 (03:12):
You know for your.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
Wedding because I send people money like when they when
they like, buy me breakfast, right, you know I don't Yeah, yeah,
I think it's a little informal. It's like, oh here,
here's some more was like, it's like throwing money at someone.
Oh yeah, here's money here whatever, and it takes two
seconds and there's no real effort involved. Yeah, I don't
think we're there yet for weddings.
Speaker 5 (03:34):
No, I don't think so.
Speaker 4 (03:35):
Now, there were people in between the at the wedding
I was at last, and between the church and the
party that were running to buy their cards and stuff.
Then I'm like, you don't need to just mail it afterwards.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
As long as you do it, because trust me, we
all know people will remember if you don't do it.
Everyone remembers the people who didn't give gifts. Right or wrong,
everybody remembers the people who didn't give gifts.
Speaker 5 (03:56):
I've noticed that I haven't really noticed that.
Speaker 4 (03:59):
And I and our friends that I've heard talk crap
about like wedding gift situations, I'll give them a little
more because I very much don't want to be talking no, and.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
Well, I don't think that we should have to give
based on what we think it are. Like I've heard
We've been over this a million times, but I've heard
the thing where it's like, you should give the amount
of money that you think it cost for you and
your guests to attend. Now, I'll give you whatever, because
I might, I might want to give you more than
I think your wedding cost. I don't know. It's not
my job to pay for myself at your wedding, no boss, no,
(04:29):
no no. I do think people will judge you based
on what they've done for you in the past.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
Like my mom is like this.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
My mom, My mom is given to cousins graduations and
friends kids graduations, and she remembers who gave to us,
and she met my grandma, my nana was really about this,
and then she remembers who thanked her and who didn't. Oh,
that's a big one, mom. The thank you is a
big one from my mom. If she sends you something
(04:56):
and you don't say thank you in any form, she
doesn't like that, even if it's I don't know, you
were supposed to send a gift because it was a graduation.
You were supposed to send a gift because it was
a wedding. She wants to thank you, and she'll remember
if you didn't do it. So these are all the
things I think people consider. But I don't know that
a zel. You can't just zell. I can just zell
you fifty bucks at your birthday and go here.
Speaker 4 (05:16):
I don't love it. And well, by the way, I
do always give more if I have a date with me,
regardless you. I don't think you should pay for plates.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
You give on behalf of because there were two of you. Yeah, yeah, no,
I think that makes sense.
Speaker 4 (05:27):
Pee would you be You're the only married person in
the room. Would you be offended if someone zell do you?
Speaker 6 (05:32):
No?
Speaker 5 (05:32):
I've had people do that really.
Speaker 6 (05:34):
A family friend actually did because she lives in Florida
and she couldn't go to my Vegas wedding.
Speaker 5 (05:37):
I totally understand. So she zelled me and I thought
that was really sweet.
Speaker 6 (05:40):
Oh I don't care, But I also I get the
feeling I wouldn't do it personally. I'm not there yet,
but I think the next twenty maybe thirty years, I
think that's going to be the new.
Speaker 4 (05:49):
Trend because millennials don't have checks, like we just don't
have them.
Speaker 5 (05:52):
We're Shelley, But you know.
Speaker 4 (05:54):
I just I know it's hard, and I usually give cash,
so I hand it to the person like direct if
I see them after or whatever. But I don't know
if I'm here's what's in the line.
Speaker 5 (06:05):
Like ingrats and the rest of your life.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
That's a good question, because you're right. I mean, I
guess I have I have to dig for my checks. Yeah,
you'll find them because I have so rarely use them. Yeah,
and then I'll put money in the envelope because if
it gets lost and that's gone. But yeah, I don't
know what you do, because you're right. I mean everyone,
that is really how it's going. But at the same time,
it's just so impersonal. It's like you could send a
card and then wait a few days and then zell
(06:30):
and hope the card and the zell land at the
same time.
Speaker 1 (06:33):
But like, I don't know.
Speaker 5 (06:34):
That's what you say, like, hey, did you get myzelf?
Speaker 1 (06:36):
You know what I mean?
Speaker 5 (06:36):
Like you feel silly.
Speaker 6 (06:38):
But I can also argue right and say that some
people do like an online account or a wedding whatever.
It's called a honeymoon fund, and some people will give
their gift.
Speaker 5 (06:46):
That way is done.
Speaker 1 (06:47):
That of the same almost almost.
Speaker 2 (06:49):
Kind of you're saying, that's how I want you to
give it, Like, yeah, you know, yeah, that's a nice
thing to do.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
Though.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
I think that's a nice thing to do if you're
having a wedding, is have some form of like digital
way that I can do it, because that way I'm
doing the efficient thing. But then I don't feel like
it's informal because you're saying, do it this way.
Speaker 5 (07:08):
I agree.
Speaker 3 (07:09):
Yeah, it's also tacky to like put your your cash
app code on the invite or something like I got yeah.
Speaker 5 (07:16):
People do that now.
Speaker 3 (07:17):
They'll put like happy birthday to me, and then they'll
put their cash app in the corner like that's so tag. Yeah, no,
I don't know, but actually I don't care how you
give me the money. Okay, cash app means it you
put it in my hand.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
It just seems like, I know how fast I gotta
get some money. Oh my god, I get on my
app boom boom boom.
Speaker 7 (07:37):
Here.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
So I don't know, here's two hundred bucks whatever. It
just seems so sort of like an afterthought, you know
what I mean. But I guess it's better than nothing.
Speaker 1 (07:45):
Yeah, what do you guys do?
Speaker 5 (07:46):
With the cards after Paullein, Do you still have your
wedding cards?
Speaker 2 (07:49):
I do.
Speaker 5 (07:50):
I'm such a like little dork.
Speaker 6 (07:51):
I keep all my cards birthday and I have communion
cards for my Baptists.
Speaker 1 (07:55):
I have it all, don't Okay?
Speaker 5 (07:56):
Yeah, I like to look at that stuff later, So
be classy. Get a car from the store. Yes, the
cards are expensive too, I got to that.
Speaker 1 (08:04):
Yeah, ninety nine cents.
Speaker 5 (08:06):
Yeah, yeah, that's the value area.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
The last card I bought was seven dollars.
Speaker 2 (08:10):
It works's ever been left waiting.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
By the phone.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
It's the Fred Show. Iris, Good morning, welcome to the program.
How are you good?
Speaker 1 (08:22):
How are you?
Speaker 2 (08:22):
We're doing great? Thanks for being here. What's going on
with this dude, Matt? We got to know how you
met about any dates you've been on. Give us some
context and backstory, all that good stuff, and then what's
going on now?
Speaker 8 (08:34):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (08:35):
Thank you?
Speaker 9 (08:37):
So yeah, we met on we met online, we met
on Facebook dating.
Speaker 1 (08:41):
Actually, so about that one too often.
Speaker 5 (08:45):
I heard there's a lot of people in there, though, I.
Speaker 1 (08:48):
Said, you know, is it like I don't.
Speaker 3 (08:52):
I don't know how I know this, but I saw
that there was a part on there that you can
make it. You don't know anybody like it will never
pop up in anyone that you know.
Speaker 1 (08:59):
Oh that's a good idea.
Speaker 2 (09:01):
Not that anyone will be surprised to see me in
any form of a dating app. I mean, I'm single,
but I guess if you weren't single and you were
trying to poke around on that thing anyway. Okay, so
Facebook dating, we don't hear a lot about that, but
you you you.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
Met someone on there?
Speaker 9 (09:14):
Yeah? No, and and like actually went out on a date,
which is rare. Like meeting someone you know online and
then actually having it results in a in a real
life date feels feels pretty rare.
Speaker 2 (09:29):
So why is it rare? Do you not date very much?
Or why why is it rare for you to go
on a date?
Speaker 9 (09:33):
I mean, I feel like dating these days, especially online
dating in general, is really hard to actually meet someone
who wants to meet in real life. I'm also a
single mom, which complicates things, right, so it's like two strikes.
Speaker 2 (09:49):
Yeah, that could be hard to to coordinate. All right,
So you met this guy, you had a great date,
you felt like everything went really well, things kind of
came together, except you have not heard from him since then,
and that s bugging you as it would anybody.
Speaker 10 (10:03):
Yeah, it feels especially weird because I have to say
it was a pretty great date, Like it wasn't just okay,
it was a really good date.
Speaker 9 (10:13):
So to not hear anything okay, they have him ghost
me after that just feels very odd. He'd also been
really responsive, like up to the date, you know what
I mean, like as we were planning it, as we
were talking, you know, texting, So I okay, yeah, just
it feels odd. It feels very odd.
Speaker 2 (10:33):
Well, let me call Uh, We're going to play a song.
Come back. We'll call Matt. You'll be on the phone.
We're going to ask these questions at some point. You
welcome to jump in on the call, and I hope iris. Yes,
all right, let's call Matt. You guys met on Facebook dating,
which is not a dating app that we hear about
very often on waiting by the phone. But you guys connected,
You went out, you had great conversation, you really felt
(10:53):
like the date went well, and you don't date a
whole lot, so you were excited about the prospect here.
But you have not heard from they sends the date,
and you want to know why that is it?
Speaker 1 (11:03):
All right?
Speaker 2 (11:04):
Let's call him now. Good luck, Iris, Thank you. Hell,
Hi is Matt.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
Yeah it is Matt. Hey Matt, good morning. My name
is Fred.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
I'm calling from the Fred's Show, the Morning radio Show,
and I have to tell you that we are on
the radio right now, and I would need your permission
to continue with the call.
Speaker 1 (11:27):
Can which for just a second on the show?
Speaker 11 (11:29):
Uh yeah, I guess. I mean it's a little weird.
You said you're a radio show.
Speaker 2 (11:35):
I know it's a little awkward. Thanks for listening, by
the way, But no, we're calling on behalf of a
woman named Iris, who I guess you met recently on
maybe on Facebook dating or something, and then you guys
went on a date.
Speaker 12 (11:47):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I mean I went out with her.
Speaker 11 (11:50):
What's right going on? What's a question here?
Speaker 1 (11:53):
Okay? Oh, we're going to go to the we love
bossing over here? Okay.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
Well, she called us, Matt and told us I had
a lot of nice things to say about you, said
that she enjoyed meeting you and enjoyed the date and
was hoping to hear from you again. Says you were
very communicative before the date and and she's confused as
to why you haven't reached out or responded to her.
Speaker 1 (12:14):
Since you guys went out.
Speaker 12 (12:16):
Uh yeah, okay, I mean it's okay, it's a little awkward, but.
Speaker 11 (12:22):
You know, Iris was was really nice.
Speaker 12 (12:25):
I mean I really liked her when we were talking
on Facebook dating. We went on the date, the conversation
was good. I mean, we had good banter, you know.
Speaker 11 (12:32):
And she's gorgeous. She's absolutely beautiful.
Speaker 1 (12:35):
That's the problem. This all checks out. What's the problem. Then, Yeah, okay.
Speaker 12 (12:39):
I knew that she's a single mom, you know, and
she doesn't get out much for the dating. So but
that didn't bother me, you know, I it was fine
hearing her talk about her son. She was very proud,
and I was totally fine. At the end of the date,
you know, we were I drove her home. We were
kissing in my car before we you know, kind of
(12:59):
said goodbye, and things were getting hot and heavy. But
then she told me like, okay, well, unfortunately I can't.
I wish I could bring you up, but my son's
sleeping in my bed. Okay, okay, And when I you know,
she she's yeah, she said her son was sleeping in
(13:19):
her bed. But she already told me that her son
is seventeen and in high school and he sleeps in
bed with her every night, and so that.
Speaker 1 (13:34):
Oh no, it's in my mind where I was in
my bed.
Speaker 2 (13:36):
I'm like, oh, mom's out, kids five, six, seven years old,
somehody that you know mom's in yeah, oh boy, okay.
Speaker 1 (13:45):
Oh my.
Speaker 5 (13:47):
If we want to go down this bed?
Speaker 1 (13:50):
So anyway, like.
Speaker 11 (13:52):
You guys agree here that.
Speaker 2 (13:55):
Seen or not. I didn't know where this is going.
I didn't know in my I didn't know if maybe
you're going to wind up in like the kid's bed
or something like. I didn't know where this was going
because okay, no, no, let me bring iris in. I
got iris. You have a lot of explaining to do. Girl,
Like your seventeen year old son sleeps in your bed
(14:16):
and you're there.
Speaker 9 (14:17):
Yes he does, there is Look, it's it's complicated.
Speaker 1 (14:23):
Sounds like it, you know.
Speaker 9 (14:24):
I feel like when you're a parent, there're certain thing
that you have to do for your child. And what
would be.
Speaker 11 (14:35):
If your seventeen year old sleeps in your bed every night?
Speaker 1 (14:38):
That's issue.
Speaker 2 (14:39):
I don't immediately take this to like a criminal place
or anything like that. It's in my mind. It's well,
I mean, we live in a. Yeah, sadly, this is
the world we live in. But I guess I'm really
concerned about boundaries here, Like seventeen years old, there's quite
the attachment. I mean, what happens I mean, what is
(15:01):
he a junior in high school? Senior in high school?
Speaker 1 (15:04):
Yeah? I mean like what?
Speaker 2 (15:05):
Yeah, like what happens when it's time to go to
college and move out and things like that. I mean,
it seems like, you know, help me out here.
Speaker 9 (15:14):
First of all, he's a he's a rising senior.
Speaker 8 (15:17):
Second of all, look, I I'm not I'm not trying
to get feisty here, but I'm very surprised that that's
the reason, especially because you're.
Speaker 9 (15:30):
You're not a parent, and you don't understand and there's
a lot of history and context here that I'm not
going to go into about my son's means, and that
that would be a deal breaker for you how I
choose to parent my child.
Speaker 1 (15:50):
Wait a minute, you can't.
Speaker 2 (15:52):
Honestly, look, no one's judging you or whatever your story is,
but you can't possibly tell me that that is something
that someone who you're rolling to date would find to
be you know, commonplace, and like, so, what happens if
this relationship goes somewhere, we have to he has to
be out of the house then, like because he's taking
your spot in the bed, like the do what do
(16:13):
you do?
Speaker 9 (16:14):
If things were to progress, it would be a while
before you meet my son, for you know, obvious reasons.
I'm very protective of him. I thought that was understood
in terms of like intimacy. There are ways to work
around that. Bedtime is our special time. But you know
(16:39):
their afternoons, there mourning, there are other.
Speaker 1 (16:45):
I can't.
Speaker 11 (16:46):
I'm sorry, guys, I can't.
Speaker 12 (16:48):
I mean, this is this is the dilemma, and I
think that I am going to withhold the judgment, but.
Speaker 1 (16:56):
Just on we're going to get into studies now. I'm
not sure.
Speaker 2 (17:01):
Honestly, I don't know if this is the son's thing
or the moms. I don't know who like a whole Yeah,
I don't, And I'm sorry for whatever you've been through
or however we got here, genuinely, But I can also,
in fairness, I can see why somebody from the outside
would look at this and say where do I fit in? Oh?
Speaker 9 (17:17):
I mean, I would just think, especially because we did
have such a great date and you did seem really
supportive of me being a single momb which I don't know,
maybe that was, maybe that was, but uh no, Yeah,
you are welcome.
Speaker 12 (17:36):
You're thinking me as a back guy, but I'm I'm
just doing.
Speaker 11 (17:39):
What I know is right for me.
Speaker 2 (17:41):
Yeah, I think I can understand that you're Yeah, I'm sorry.
Speaker 12 (17:45):
Max, somebody finds it understandable. I and I totally support
that you are supportive of your son, just not in
that way. And granted, like you said, I'm not a
parent myself, but I think that I am justified in
not wanting to be a part of that situation.
Speaker 2 (18:05):
Yeah, in fairness, there were a lot of single moms
listening out going Okay, honestly, I'm not even gonna argue
with you, but so it's not for Matt. Iris. I'll
ask the question, Matt, would you like to go out
with her again? We'll pay for it, maybe a hotel
room too, I don't know. In the middle of the day, didn't.
Speaker 1 (18:32):
Look Iris.
Speaker 2 (18:32):
I'm I wish you the best, and I just you know,
I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't know, I
don't know, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (18:40):
I just don't.
Speaker 2 (18:41):
I don't know. I don't know. And so that's not
he's not going to be interested. And Iris, I wish
you the best in whatever's going on. And uh and
and thank you so much for sharing with that entertainment report.
Speaker 1 (18:54):
He is on the pread show.
Speaker 4 (18:56):
Cool boyfriend Man Chris Martin jokingly warned fans that they
they might be about to end up on the JumboTron
during their first concert since that whole cheating scandal that
broke I believe it was the first one while playing
in Wisconsin over the weekend.
Speaker 5 (19:09):
Instead of just going right into the section of the.
Speaker 4 (19:12):
Show where they show various couples on the big screen,
he wore the crowd what was coming. He said, we'd
like to say hello to some of you in the
crowd and put some of you on the big screen.
How we're going to do that is we're going to
use our cameras and put some of you up on
the big screen.
Speaker 5 (19:28):
He reiterated it.
Speaker 4 (19:29):
Please, if you haven't done your makeup, wink wink, do
so now. Last week, of course, astronomer CEO Andy Byron
was caught on the kiss cam with his arms around
coworker Christen Cabot. She even worked in HR even though
they are both married to other people. Andy has since
resigned and I'm doing that in quotes, he resigned. So
(19:50):
Selena Gomez celebrated her thirty third birthday with her fiance
Benny Blanco excuse me, Benny Blanco, and lots of friends,
including Taylor Swift. The party was a seventies disco theme
and photo show Tailor and Selena in a pool of balloons.
Selena posted and Instagram carousel, writing, this past year has
truly been the most beautiful of my life, and I
(20:12):
owe so much of that to you all. Thank you
for your unwavering love and kindness. Whether you cheered me
on from the sidelines, shared in my highs and lows,
or simply offered a listening ear, you have made this
year unforgettable. And she does look so happy. Her actual
birthday is tomorrow. And also, by the way, Selena and
Benny are doing a two day wedding. I just read
(20:32):
so they are also doing a two day wedding.
Speaker 1 (20:37):
Let's just do it in one everything I gotta do
just one day, just one.
Speaker 5 (20:42):
Day, get it all done.
Speaker 1 (20:43):
Yeah, yeah, just bang it out.
Speaker 5 (20:44):
They're doing that. I guess it's a new trend. I
don't know.
Speaker 4 (20:47):
Then there were rumors that she picked her wedding date
based on when Taylor could attend her.
Speaker 5 (20:52):
People say that's not true, but I kind of like.
Speaker 1 (20:54):
Could believe that.
Speaker 4 (20:55):
I got to see that maybe being true.
Speaker 5 (20:59):
And speaking of Lenny thing. Lastly, it was a brat wedding, y'all.
Speaker 4 (21:02):
Charlie XCX and the nineteen seventy five drummer George Daniel
tied the not Saturday in a low key London town
hall ceremony. She wore a short Vivian Westwood. They dj
their own reception and yes, there will be a second
wedding planned in Sicily. I think I saw they were
on vacation there, so they must be doing some planning.
She even did a little TikTok to one of her
own songs right before she married him, and it was very,
(21:26):
very cute.
Speaker 2 (21:26):
That's only the only way that I can understand a
multi day wedding is if you have to get married
for some reason, like in town hall, yeah, town hall
in the square.
Speaker 1 (21:37):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (21:38):
If you gotta go to the Justice of the Piece
for some reason and you invite a few people and
we show up a week because we have to formally
get it done, or maybe you go off and do
it and then we have a wedding. But that's the
only way I'm going in too, and we got to
separate them. There can't be one consecutive weekend. It's too
much to ask of one person. It's too much.
Speaker 1 (21:58):
I'm very triggered, but I don't want to tig it.
That just too much.
Speaker 2 (22:01):
Okay, all right, good to know if you can make
it on a on a Saturday. Ideally if you could,
and I understand it's little cheaper on other days, but like,
you know, if you love me, let's have a Saturday
wedding just for you.
Speaker 5 (22:16):
Fred.
Speaker 2 (22:17):
Yeah, well, because Friday can be a little tricky because
people have to work, and especially if it's a destination wedding. Now,
I got ticket day off to get there, and then
what happens if i'm you know, my flight's running late
or something like that. I gotta get the day before.
I can't miss it. And then a Sunday wedding means
I can't. Yeah, I don't know, I can't really partake.
Speaker 5 (22:34):
And okay, any other stipulations for you.
Speaker 2 (22:38):
Want to leave?
Speaker 3 (22:38):
Right after you say, I right say, I'm gonna have
the chicken parmesan.
Speaker 2 (22:43):
About the door the chicken barbage. Hopefully you have chicken parmejo. Yeah,
as long as there's no that's the asterisk. If there's
chicken barbiago, then then you can have it on a
Thursday if you want.
Speaker 1 (22:58):
If there's chicken barbigan.
Speaker 5 (22:59):
There, chicken, I'm marketing all right, perfect, shout it down.
I have all my notes down, and I've never in.
Speaker 2 (23:06):
My life or anyone referred to it a chicken partment. Joah,
you know, okay anyway?
Speaker 4 (23:11):
And okay, if you are new, or if you miss
any part of the show and want to catch up,
type the Friend Show on demand on the free I
heard where.
Speaker 2 (23:18):
The show is brought to you by Chicken Patma jo
And if you want me to go to your Thursday wedding,
Chick and Papa Jean better.
Speaker 1 (23:24):
Be on the minu. Do you have what it takes
to battle show biz? Shelley in the Showbiz Showdown? Hey, Hi,
show Shelley.
Speaker 7 (23:36):
Hi.
Speaker 2 (23:38):
Let's get Brittany on here. Hi Brittany, Hey Brittany, good morning.
Speaker 1 (23:43):
How are you?
Speaker 7 (23:45):
I'm good?
Speaker 1 (23:45):
How are you great? Welcome? Fun fact about you?
Speaker 2 (23:47):
Ease what.
Speaker 7 (23:50):
I'm actually getting married? September twentieth Okay.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
Now, hold on, what day in the week is that Saturday?
Speaker 1 (23:56):
Thank you? You have thank you?
Speaker 8 (23:58):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (23:58):
What is our chicken part on the menu?
Speaker 7 (24:01):
There's not, but it's actually you're gonna hate it because
it's an all weekend event.
Speaker 1 (24:05):
Oh hold on, hold on, hold on a second.
Speaker 2 (24:08):
Explained to me, Now why does it need to be
in all week like what what is happening? So if
I were to be invited, then explain to me, like
what what are we doing?
Speaker 7 (24:16):
So our thought process was, you spend so much on
a wedding and I can't fathom the idea of it
being one day. So I we like camping. We're very
out doorsy people. So one of our things was, if
we're going to make it an all weekend event, why
not go camping? That way kids are involved. We both
have a lot of kids in our family and a
lot of venues.
Speaker 11 (24:36):
We looked at.
Speaker 7 (24:37):
Their max was like one fifty and that just didn't work.
So we decided to do a camping event. So we
actually basically rented out like half of a campground and
so we have our own little section and so everybody
that's staying there gets to see all weekends. So the
kids are involved, and then that Saturday, we're actually getting
married at a golf course because we like the golf too,
so we're going to like golf during the day and
(24:59):
so to be it's.
Speaker 2 (24:59):
Going to be all right, Okay, I see that. Now
what if I don't What if I were invited, I
don't want a camp can I do? I just show
up to the wedding then, yeah, so there's cabins.
Speaker 7 (25:10):
Yeah, if you don't want to do that whole weekend,
you don't. Some people are staying hotels too. There's a
casino nearby, so a lot of people like to gamble
phone they can do that too.
Speaker 5 (25:18):
It's fun.
Speaker 1 (25:18):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (25:19):
Well, and I suppose if you're making me go somewhere
for your wedding, then we may as well have options.
But if it's in my town and I got to
show up to three different things on two different nights,
I'm like, you know, it's too much.
Speaker 1 (25:32):
It's too much for me too. You're right, I don't.
Speaker 7 (25:36):
So it made sense.
Speaker 2 (25:39):
But if, like, if we're doing it like an excursion,
why then then I understand that I got that. Well,
if you're making me go to Mexico, you're making me
go to campground you're making me pitch a ten. You're
making me grill, get out there, kill mountain food. I mean,
you're making me survive. I got to repel down the
mountain to get to the same whatever. Then okay, fine,
(26:00):
but I don't know you know what. I'm just bitching
to bitch because I don't. I don't get any saying this,
and I if you invited me, i'd go. So it's fine.
Let's play the game. Five questions, four hundred and fifty bucks.
I think you should let her win this because she's
getting married at a campground and she needs some money.
Speaker 5 (26:16):
Okay, I can't promise. All right, good luck.
Speaker 2 (26:19):
Shelley shows no mercy to anyone. Go to the sound
if you go, Brittany question number one. A new book
claims Gwyneth Paltrow was upset about Brad Pitt's marriage to
this friend's actress.
Speaker 5 (26:33):
