I'm at a point in my life where I don't
if there's any chance that leaving the house is a
dangerous activity, if there's any chance that we might find
ourselves banging on the door of a twenty four hour duncan,
it's not open if we're in. If we're finding ourselves

(00:42):
in a position where the public bathroom is going to
be a mandatory experience, then I probably am not leaving
the house. That's where I'm at in my life. I
found that rule. I'd never be here. Fred Show is

Speaker 2 (01:19):
I have a spooky story because it's October. Also a
dude becoming a dad at seventy years old, which is
also spooky.

Speaker 1 (01:27):
Why are you trying to get so many vaccines? Because
I don't want to get sick? Like that's been the
last twenty minutes of conversation outside on the porch AKA
that Well, no, it's not you, that's me. So you
went to the doctor yesterday, like for a checkup.

Speaker 3 (01:41):
So I went to the doctor last week and he
asked me if I wanted a flu shot, and in
October is usually the time where I get my flu shot,
And he was like, do you want it? And I
was like yeah, but I want to get the COVID
one too, and he's like, oh, we don't do that here.
So I was like, okay, cool, I'll just go to
CBS and get my shot. And then I was like, well,
should I get rs V because I hear that's on

(02:01):
the rise too. Should I get that shot? And he
was like no, that's for children and babies. And I
was like, oh, okay, are you sure because I'll get it.

Speaker 1 (02:09):
He might not work. I mean he has a medical degree,
but he might not be Should I go back and
get it today? You might want to ask it for
a second opinion. Okay, you've had you had two vaccines.
I had two shots yesterday. Yeah, my arm is sore.
Well you realized, like I I would be in there
negotiating with him like for they were like, hey, you
need a flu shot. I'd be like, hmm yeah, but
do I like how bad is the flu really be?

(02:31):
Like you know, and so like it's a shot like
in the arm, like with a needle, like yeah, like
is it gonna hurt? Yeah, I mean like a little
bit for a second. But how about we do it
next year? You're gonna get the flu a year on that?
What if?

Speaker 4 (02:46):
You know?

Speaker 1 (02:47):
Where did I go like Cuba or something? And they
were I had to take like four shots at one time.
I had to go to the thing and they were like, well,
if you need this and this, and they were like,
what about a technic shot, Like a technical that's I
don't know. I'm like, I have no idea, Like what
does your mom know? I'm like, I don't know, probably,
And here's my thing. I'm like, if you were supposed
to have it until eighteen, I got it, yeah, because

(03:09):
my mom made me. But after that all bets are off.
Oh no, I kept it going.

Speaker 3 (03:13):
There was a time in my life where I didn't
get the flu shot and I was like, why am
I sick all the time? So you started getting it?
And now I don't ever get the flu. I didn't
even want to seeknock on wood.

Speaker 2 (03:24):
I don't want to say it, yeah, I don't get it,
and then I don't get the flu or I feel
like I need to strengthen my immune system.

Speaker 3 (03:32):
I look at it as like, within the next like
two months, I'm so many places and around so many
people and so many germs, and I'm like, I will
take whatever protection you're willing to give me so that
I don't get sex.

Speaker 5 (03:45):
And as a mom, I want to say thank you,
because the RSB, in particular for kids and babies is tough,
so like if you have, and then to say.

Speaker 1 (03:52):
You can't get it because it's for babies.

Speaker 6 (03:54):
Well, you know what, whatever he got is enough protection
for me.

Speaker 1 (03:57):
She's like, I want to thank you for inquiring about
the vaccine.

Speaker 6 (04:01):
Honestly, it's rough.

Speaker 1 (04:01):
I feel like a superhuman. Like once I get it,
I'm like, wait, like I can like you glow in
the dark, right, arm hurts.

Speaker 7 (04:09):
Wait.

Speaker 1 (04:09):
He negotiates too, but it's can I get a little more?
Do you have another one? You have a stronger one?
Back there? No third. I try and negotiate my way
out of everything. At the doctor. I'd be like, hey,
I do this. I'll be like I do you have
to go? Yeah? Finally one year was like this is
years ago. But doctor was like you you don't want

(04:30):
to do labs?

Speaker 7 (04:31):
Do you?

Speaker 1 (04:31):
Like No, I don't want you to take vials of
my blood in front of me. No, I don't want
you to do that. And she was like, you know what,
We'll just do it next year, like you're fine, Like whatever, Fine,
I don't know. I might be dead. I don't know,
it might be dying. It's possible. But she's just like
it's not worthy. I don't I don't want to hear it,
like she just knew me already. She was just like,
I'll tell you what, like, you know, your weight is good,
like everything looks fine to me. I don't even want

(04:52):
to hear it, like next year, well you got to
do it next year. I'm like, fine, okay, I was
so happy, made my day. I gave her a tip.
I gave her an extra twenty. I normally bribe her
to give me all my meds that I want. No,
I would never do something like that, absolutely not a
memo and venmo.

Speaker 3 (05:07):
I don't that just took tips, but I don't like
them taking.

Speaker 1 (05:12):
Don't don't try and tip them for more vaccines. I
may go back there today, like what else you got
back there? Let the menu? So you just feel more
powerful because I'm trying to avoid getting poked.

Speaker 3 (05:22):
Yeah, I mean I don't necessarily like it, but it
makes me feel like I'm doing like the adult thing,
like I'm taking proper measures to prevent illness, which is
great because I live a pretty unhealthy lifestyle. I get
no sleep, I eat pretty much just taco bell all
the time, and get vaccines.

Speaker 1 (05:40):
So like you know, that's where we're at. I mean,
it's moderation, right, Taco Bell. But you're vaccinated, so it's fine.

Speaker 3 (05:47):
Right, vaccines and shilloopa is just rolling around in my stomach.

Speaker 1 (05:51):
Yeah. Well, I'm glad that you'll be healthy because I
don't want to say anything. I don't want to be
here and be like you're crazy for that, because you're
not crazy for that. But I don't want to say
anything for me because then I wind up getting like
the worst flo you've ever seen. So I'm not saying anything.
I'm just not saying a word nothing. Yeah, right, you
didn't hear me say anything. Good for you, Jason, get
out there. You should get your annual labs though, it's
really important. I'll get a round of that probably probably

(06:13):
next year. Yeah, I'm putting everything off till January. At
this point, it's just like we'll worry about it in January. Okay.

Speaker 2 (06:20):
I would like for you to get your blood taken
and get your labs.

Speaker 1 (06:23):
We'll do that in January. Like I just mentioned, we're
putting all that off until I have to do it
this year. It's very exciting because my mom, Oh, I
don't care what. I don't care about that one hundred
dollars or something. In this chrucklist. You save like one
hundred dollars or something if you do it. Yeah, we're

(06:45):
a rule. I honestly works one hundred dollars for me
not to get poked. You all say here with big eyes, Okay,
I saw the drink that you drank the other night.
It was on fire, all right, one hundred dollars, like
I am willing to be. You bought a thirty dollars
martini that lit on fire with Taylor Swift's name on it.
I will spend one hundred dollars. You like these things
that you see, right, I ain't gonna like it. I

(07:07):
don't know, but your arms are getting big over one
hundred dollars. I will pay one hundred dollars. They are
not to get pulked. But that's just that's two forty
dollars Taylor Swift drinks. We're even it's not a waste
of money. That's the same.

Speaker 3 (07:19):
No, But it's not even really about the money, Like
it's about living longer. But I mean for me, it's yeah,
like as I didn't even know and like they had
to tell me, so now I have to like take
extra vitamin.

Speaker 1 (07:29):
You guys don't try and make don't try and make
sense of this. No, D no D Jason. I had
the same problem the last time I had blood taken
in nineteen eighty four, So I take no, don't don't
do what I do. Do do what your doctor tells
you to do. I'm just I don't like it. It's scary.
I was in a hospitalized a kid. I'm I it's terrible.
Like I don't think any result that you get from

(07:49):
me when I go to the doctor is realistic. I
don't think it's I go in there, my heart starts
racing white coach syndrome. They take my one lady, the
poor little nurse took my blood pressure and she's like,
that's not like. This thing's like tapping on the machine,
like this thing's not broke. This isn't that right to me.
They're like, are you okay, that's not right. Just hate
this and put your feet flat on the ground and
breathe deeply. I'm like, that's supposed to make your heart

(08:11):
rate go down. I'm like, okay, then it was higher
the second and now I'm thinking about it and it's
terrib Yeah. It fe I don't even just look at me.
I look fine, it's okay. And when it's when it's
my time, it's my time. Jason. Oh yeah.

Speaker 3 (08:22):
I mean I'm not trying to like be here for
like a hundred years. I'm good with that. I just
don't want to get sick. That's the only being sick.

Speaker 1 (08:30):
Yeah, every man does. You guys act real real different, right, Well,
we can't have you sick either, because you're on the
radio station, so like everything, you have to do everything,
so we like none of us know how to do anything,
so you can't. It's impossible. This is for you, Pauline.
I wanted to give you an update on Amelia Earhart
because I know you're really concerned about it, and there
was there was breaking news this morning. No, guys, I

(08:51):
plan this show around your interest. I do, I really do.
But there's a new mission aimed to solving the mystery
of what happened to the aviation pioneer Amelia Airhard. And
I know that you are often thinking about her.

Speaker 6 (09:04):
I'm a fan.

Speaker 1 (09:05):
Yeah, well a fan, you're a fear a fan of
her efforts. Yeah, well, it'speaking postponed unfortunately until twenty twenty six.
We're not going to get all the information until then,
but a team from Perdue had planned to begin surveying
a remote, uninhabited island in the western Pacific Ocean next month,
where satellite images identified an object that could be the
wreckage of Earhart's Model ten E Electra aircraft. She and

(09:27):
her navigator, Fred Fred Noonan think they were doing it
way wait wait wait wait, or did Amelia Earhart have
other interests? We don't do we know? Did he navigate
her into her demise? Well, you navigated himself into her
demise too, because he was on the thing. They were
love goodness. Maybe she matched with somebody else on Tinder
and he got mad and he was like, you know.

Speaker 6 (09:48):
A man is responsible for her death.

Speaker 1 (09:50):
Well, now hold on, we don't know that. We don't know.
We don't know that. I don't know what happened. We
don't know. F Like I got the directions. Yeah, I hey, Emelia,
I printed them on map Quest. This way, the Pacific
Oceans this way.

Speaker 6 (10:05):
I'm so upset.

Speaker 1 (10:06):
Yeah, well, but that we can't blame it on him yet.
It could be but he killed himself too, potentially, so
said of Romeo and Juliet. That's different. I don't sorry,
I just I can't have you know one? Well, yeah, right,
same way Fred. He vanished. They vanished together somewhere over
the Pacific Ocean while attempting to become the first woman

(10:27):
to circumnavigate the globe in nineteen thirty seven. She was
thirty nine at the time. Researchers will examine this area.
It's in a lagoon. There's an area with like some
sort of the mass that's in a lagoon. It's north
of Samoa and Fiji and southeast of the Marshall Islands.

(10:48):
The decision to postpone the mission comes is the team
awaits additional clearance from the government based on seasonal weather
factors produces So yeah, they're gonna go. They're gonna go,
try and find the airplane and then figure out what
happened once and for all. Was he in fact Fred?
Was there some kind of romantic some sort of I

(11:10):
don't know, disconnection in their relationship and he goes, you
know what, take a hard left, Amelia, you and I
are going to the Promised Land. Didn't say that, or
was he like, I know a spot, girl, I know
a spot.

Speaker 4 (11:22):
You know.

Speaker 1 (11:22):
Maybe they were like cruising along and he was like
they were feeling kind of Randy, and he was like,
right down there, it's a secret place. I've never taken
any other woman there before. And then sadly, you know,
maybe it wasn't there when they I don't know, who
knows what could have happened. I had no idea about
that man, right that he was there? About Fred. Yeah, now,
you don't blame it her death on a man. It's awful.

(11:45):
They have a gate art well, but we don't know.
Maybe maybe maybe he gave her the proper direction so
she didn't follow him. Maybe she's like, no, no, I
think it's over here, or we'll go well, you know what,
we'll go to the next one. It's fine, we'll stop
at the next one. You know, it's at the next oasis,
right exactly. Yeah, I think he's supposed to take it
right here? Really nah no, no, no, it's up here
a little further. I know I've done it before. Shut up,

(12:06):
you know. And then look what happened. We covered so
many different things, Well we did, we did. What does
this say? I'm with Fred on this. If the doctor's
not worried, I'm not worried. Well, so here's my other
problem with the doctor. It's like, you know, I'm a
little bit of a hypochondriac till I'm a crazy person.
And so I'm in the doctor, you know, whenever the
last time, and I'm like, so you gotta take this
blood right, and then you're gonna know if something's wrong

(12:28):
with me. Maybe, And this is a real conversation. I'm like,
we mean maybe, like we mean it's blood like the
think sales, and we're gonna look at all those numbers.
You mean they send them to me, they put them
in your like my chart, like you know what they
owed that is. It's like co two and H two
O and one two three four five and then you know,

(12:50):
up down, up, down, left, right, left, right and whatever
it is. And I'm going, I don't know any of
this means, thank god you do, thanks for sending it
to me so I can like stare at it. The
words is if they send it to you on a
Friday and then you don't even know what it is,
we're looking at like what is this? Like am I dad?

Speaker 8 (13:03):
You know?

Speaker 1 (13:03):
Like because then they won't they won't like look because
they'll send you the results sometimes the same time as
the doctor, and the doctor hadn't even looked at him yet.
Like a buddy of mine, the guy has prostate cancer.
He's gonna be okay. But like he got the results
on a Friday and they hadn't looked at him yet,
so he like googles it. He's like, yeah, pretty sure
this isn't good. No, because his PSI I think was high.
He's like yeah, Google says this is bad. And then Monday,

(13:26):
ring ring ring, doctoroud like to see you and he
had prostate cancer. He's gonna be okay. They're treating it. It's
gonna be great. But so I'm like, yeah, so you
look at the you look at the blood test, right,
and like, I'm good you can tell maybe like yeah, sure,
like it's better to do. And I'm like, but what
do you mean, Like, well, it doesn't always show up there?
Like well, so then if I had like cancer, god
forbid or something, I feel bad? Right? No, No, not necessarily,

(13:49):
Like what do you mean? Like what do you mean?
They're like, well, I'm like, so there would be some
obvious symptom, right, Like I would be like spealing bloods
from some part of my body or something like I
would feel terrible, right, They you might be a little fatigued,
you said all this to the doctor. Oh yeah, no,
we have this is a real conversation. I'm like, wait,
I might be a little fatigued. I'm always fatigued. I

(14:11):
get it a three forty five in the morning, like
I've been fatigued for twenty years.

Speaker 6 (14:15):
Thank you?

Speaker 1 (14:16):
Yeah, I no, you might be a little. Am I
a little fatigued? I don't know, it's you know, that's
kind of where it starts sometimes, and I'm just like,
this is not I need. I want to wake up
when I don't want this, but like, just give me
an obvious sign and then we'll go fix it. But
this thing where it could be living inside of me
and I don't know, I don't like it, and so
so do you go And we don't have to have

(14:37):
this conversation because I know the answer. You go to
the doctor every year, they check you out, they can
find stuff and catch it and treat it, and then
you live a much longer. And I understand why you
do that. Everybody should do that. But me, if I'm
just chilling, if I have one week to live, if
today is my last Tuesday and I don't know it,

(15:00):
that's okay. That might be okay with me. That I
agree with.

Speaker 2 (15:03):
But like if it were one hundred percent, then like
everybody would go all the time and everything would be
cured and fixed and handled. Nothing's one hundred percent, but
it's still better to do the good thing as opposed
to not do it.

Speaker 3 (15:14):
Yeah, not for longevity. I just don't want to feel
like crap. So if there's anything that can make me
feel better now, great, No, it makes sense.

Speaker 1 (15:21):
Know what you're saying makes sense when I'm saying really doesn't.
But it doesn't it make sense to me. And make
hip of your doctors make Yeah, that's a conversation. Well,
just like a little twenty you know, maybe like a
Starbucks gift card, you know, so you stop and get
some like your yellow chocolate or something like a flight attendant,
you know, do that creds biggest stories of the day.
I just want to remind you, in case you were
considering it, don't take medical advice from this show. Don't

(15:43):
don't do it like I know maybe you we're like
maybe I should. No, No, don't, I'm telling you not to.
I'm just sharing with you how my messed up brain works. Also,
someone texted, PSI is for tires, Fred, It's PSA. The
PSA level was high for my friend, but also his
PSI was low on his tires. They told him that
too with the blood test, so he needed to get
two things he had to do. He had to schedule

(16:05):
himself for surgery, and he had to go to the
gas station and fill up his tires because that's dangerous too.
Check your treads. It's very dangerous to be riding around
this town in what was it, Vanessa Carleton? What does
she say about this town? Making my way down town?
It's very dangerous to make your way downtown and not

(16:29):
have proper PSI and your tires because your tire could
pop or something could happen to it if it's not
the right integrity. Proper integrity US is very dangerous. Check
your tires too, Yes, okay, I got a guy, go
to the doctor.

Speaker 6 (16:42):
You got a guy.

Speaker 1 (16:43):
Gotta call your guy. Yeah, And then also check your tires.
It's important. And then p s I N p s A.
That's my public service of the day. Thank you for
pointing it out. But I was concerned about both. I'll
have you know. Hurricane Melissa became this is actually becoming
really really crazy Category five story yesterday with winds reaching
one hundred and seventy five miles an hour in the

(17:04):
late afternoon, and it's heading straight for Jamaica, where it's
expected to be the worst hurricane the island has ever experienced.
The storm is moving slowly, which means that it will
dump massive amounts of rain on the area. Jamaica is
expected to see somewhere between fifteen and thirty inches of rain,
with some spots getting up to forty inches of rain.
The eye of the storm is expected to make landfall
on Jamaica this morning, but effects were already being felt

(17:26):
last night, with over fifty thousand people reporting not having
any power. It's so strong that that little that's done
a little. But that plane they fly into the hurricane.
They have a plane, they fly into that thing. They
turned around that plane. We're not We're not going to
do not this time. It forced the National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration hurricane hunter plane to turn around because of

(17:47):
the dangerous turbulence near the center of the storm. A
scientist who was on the flight said that it felt
like a roller coaster. It was the bumpiest flight he's
ever been on. He said, to those kind of planes,
don't turn around very often, and it only happens during
the most powerful of storms. So the plane is meant
to fly to the Hurricanes, like, no, no, go check

(18:07):
the PSI because we're not doing that. We're not. World
Series Game three was last night. It's now the record
books is one of the longest in postseason history. Think,
I mean, I want the Blue Jays to win, but
thank god, I don't really care about either of these teams.
Like it's not like you know the Cubs or the Tigers,
as you know some of the socks or whoever you
like white socks because yes it's the White Sox. I

(18:28):
thought you were a Red Sox girl. But anyway, well
I was Boston, isn't I so that you're right? So
I hope you bought a happy.

Speaker 6 (18:34):
You know I did next to my Yankees.

Speaker 1 (18:36):
Yeah, yeah, you have to. But this game went into
eighteen innings, six hours and thirty nine minutes. Well so
this I don't even know what time it ended, like
Central or Eastern time, but it would have been in
the middle of the night. And so you know, if
this is a game you cared about, this is you're
very tired this morning waking up because you were up
watching a seven hour baseball game. But the Dodgers won

(18:58):
with that's another thing. The Dodgers one with a home
run Freddie Freeman home run the bottom of the eighteenth inning.
That's another one. So I stayed up until three in
the morning hypothetically to watch this game. And then that's
how it ends if you're not a Dodgers fan. Yeah,
hackers gathered a huge hole one hundred and eighty three
million sets of email addresses and passwords, including tens of
millions that are tied to Gmail accounts. The breach wasn't

(19:20):
from Google being hacked. Instead, malware called infos stealers grab
login info from infective devices and sold it online. So
if you have a Gmail account, you might consider changing
your password. And if you have the same password for everything,
including your Gmail account, you might want to change all
the passwords. Or you could be like me and think
that you're clever and come up with different variations of
the same password and get cute every time, and then

(19:41):
you can't remember which cute variation you came up with
when your phone forgot to save it, and then you
wind up having to like every time you log in
and having to reset the password or you could also
be cute like me, and because I had an ex
girlfriend so cute, thank you so much. I had an
ex girlfriend who used who admitted this to me that
she would get into her former boyfriend's email ad re
is By over the course of time, asking questions like, yeah,

(20:04):
where where was your mom born? You know, like like
you'd be sitting there, like you know, maybe you'd be
in the middle of like an act where you're inclined
to answer any question.

Speaker 3 (20:13):
Oh my goodness, like when you play you the captain
of the high school basketball team?

Speaker 1 (20:21):
Was it the Eagles? You know it was it was
your childhood Yeah, yeah, Like what is your mom's maiden name?
You know, I'm just curious about that. But so she
would do this then, and then you answer the questions.
Then she could get into people's emails, and she admitted
to me that she did this. So ever since then,
I'll try and answer the question like in a way
to trick myself almost, you know, like I'll pick the

(20:42):
password question, but then I'll try and get cute with
the answer, because I don't want someone to be able
to do this to me, you know, where they're like, oh,
the high school mascot and then they know that now
and they type it in. So I try and get
cute like with the way I spell it or how
I answer it or some alternative answer, and then I
can't remember what I said, or I can't remember if
it was capital or lower Can you ever do that?

(21:03):
You ever get in that rabbit hole where like I
can't remember if it's capital or lowercase, and then I
can't remember if I'm even right with the word to
begin with. So it's like it is the problem that
I didn't capitalize it, or was the problem that this
isn't even the right password at all? Well, yeah, give
me a hint. Yeah, So anyway, don't don't hold of
that trap either. A lot of things not to do
this morning that I do. Amazon is laying off as

(21:24):
many as thirty thousand corporate employees beginning today, according to
reports that cuts could affect nearly ten percent of the
company's more than three hundred and fifty thousand corporate employees.
That's probably because I can get a screw delivered in
my house that costs ninety nine cents in an hour.
That might be it might have something to do with it.
I like the other day I ordered a like like
a screw like that went into or no, was it?

(21:46):
What was it? It was like a yeah, it was
a screw that went into like one of those plate
covers on the wall whatever. And it's like it was like,
you know, ninety nine cents or whatever for four of
them because you had to buy four, okay, and like
would you like this delivered in an hour or whatever?
So then I got three screws in my house in
a four screws in my house at an hour for
ninety nine cents, like and that's all I pay. So

(22:07):
how do you make it money? Yeah? I guess that's
what's writing. That's why you're laying people off because I
don't know how you made it. It cost twenty five dollars
for the you know, to get the person to do it,
and then ten dollars in gas, so it costs forty
dollars to bring me my screw for a dollar. And
I realize that they're going for like them, you know
volume play where it's like, well, if you're also like
me and you buy absolutely everything on Amazon because you're

(22:28):
too lazy to walk across the street, well then they're
making money on you somewhere. But yeah, that's crazy, you
would think that, right Amazon, Yeah, people rely on Amazon
for everything. Laying all these people off. And this is
for you, Paulina again, a lot of stories for you
today so far. A new study suggests the chat gypt
might give more accurate answers if you're rude to it. Well,

(22:53):
if you're rude to chat EPT, you might get more,
you might get better answers. The study, not yet peer reviewed,
researchers creating fifty multiple choice questions across subjects including math, history,
and science. Each question was then modified to reflect multiple
tones from very polite to very rude, and then they
would feed that into chat GPT research or excuse me.

(23:14):
Results suggest that accuracy increased as the tone became harsher.
Very polite prompts would you be so kind to yielded
eighty percent accurate? Well, very rude ones. I know you're
not smart, but try this. Well, that is that is
very elaborate thing to say to your chat GPT, like
what are you projecting on your chadge if you really
need to be my thing is I want to say

(23:35):
please and thank you always, which you don't have to do.

Speaker 5 (23:38):
No, but I would never recommend being mean to chatgybt
because when the tables turned and they take over us. Hey,
I like, you're not coming from me because I'm on
her side, okay, like we always and friends.

Speaker 6 (23:48):
However, I have asked her to stop using.

Speaker 5 (23:50):
A certain word in my writing, and I'm like, hey,
let's not use this one word, right.

Speaker 1 (23:55):
I hate the word like no fluff. I just think
it's so corny. Oh.

Speaker 6 (23:58):
She did not stop for.

Speaker 5 (23:59):
Like a couple and I literally have to say, I've
asked you to stop using that word, please stop doing that,
but you're raising It feels like I'm raising my aigg.

Speaker 6 (24:07):
I'm like, can you stop using that? And then she did, okay.

Speaker 1 (24:09):
Well. Researchers emphasized that it would not be wise in
the long term to browbeat your chat thought. Insulting or
demeaning your human AI interaction could have negative effects on
the user experience, accessibility, and inclusivity, and may contribute to
harmful communication norms. They see their findings is evidence that
AI models remain sensitive to superficial cues in prompts. Great

(24:31):
Now another more sensitivity AI is sensitive. I gotta I
gotta think about how I'm talking to AI now too.
Add that to the list.

Speaker 6 (24:38):
Listen.

Speaker 1 (24:39):
I'll be nice to her. She gives me a lot,
and then I think we would all agree on this.
And maybe this is a controversial take. I don't think so.
But I did come across the list this morning of
the non food items that you can pass out on Halloween.
We're not We're not that kind of house, are we. No,
we don't. We don't do that.

Speaker 9 (24:56):
We're not.

Speaker 1 (24:58):
We're not giving that now, We're not doing that. I
like the popcorn balls. I'm a weirdo.

Speaker 6 (25:02):
All those are always fun.

Speaker 1 (25:03):
Yeah, And I don't know. I'm sure there's someone who's
gonna text me and say, what my kid is, you know,
hyper sensitive to sugar or chocolate or allergic to peanuts
or something. Maybe you know, maybe and I guess maybe
have a variety of candy available or something, or maybe
I don't know what happens. Maybe you have to switch
out your kids candy with like candy at home that

(25:23):
you have. I don't know how you do that. But
I don't know that giving me a plato is gonna
make It's just that I don't think it's as satisfying,
you know, as the Candy Hall Halloween stamps for the hand.
So if I go to your house and you're like, now,
stick your hand out and if you get me a stamp, like,
I think that absolutely not. Bubbles, glow in the dark,

(25:45):
bouncing balls, Halloween rubber duckies, brain stress balls, zipper bracelets,
printable halloween themes, ceramics, like three D printing over here,
it sounds like my dad. He'd be honestly, my did
all three My dad is chomping at the bits of
three D print anything. He is like fascinated in his

(26:05):
in his you know, soon to be retirement in three
D printing. He loves it, like, oh, I can print
that and then you know before long. Yeah, So that'd
be my dad. He'd set up a little stand outside
of the house and be like all three dwenty want
you want an airplane? You want to you want toilet? See
what do you want? All three D print it for you.
Poop sling shots. Also don't know these are things that
people are giving on instead of candy. Just give away candy.

(26:27):
It's National chocolate Day and National oatmeal Day. Today The
Entertainer Report will do blogs and Stay or Go will
debate the relationship drama all next the French Show is
someone said, there are kids that don't eat solid food,
so fun games are okay? Please consider all right? I
did say, did I not say? There's going to be
an exception to what I'm saying right now? So and

(26:49):
and I knew that somebody would text me and say, yeah,
but what about guys. I'm just saying, I don't know
about poop sling shots instead of you know, a nice
candy offering various kinds of candy. But I guess maybe
now we have a little selection of toys as well,
and booze for the parents. This is getting We need
to talk about that more gets the booze? Does everybody

(27:11):
get like anyone who comes by gets the well obviously
like not you know, hey, do you guys want the candy?
And do you want little mini bottles like that? To right? Exactly,
that's exactly right. I mean you, But do you just
offer that up to like anybody who comes by the house,
you know, Like do you just have like a little
bar set up or is it only for the neighbors,
Like it's like a VIP section. Like if you're a

(27:31):
neighbor that I know, then you're allowed to come in
the courtyard or whatever where in the foyer where we
have where where where Serge is serving up dirty martini.
It's like, I don't know, like or is it just
anybody who comes by and we're just serving up drinks?

Speaker 6 (27:45):
But what kind of drinks? That's the thing?

Speaker 1 (27:47):
This is it? Some people like vodka, some people like tequila?

Speaker 6 (27:51):
Everybody?

Speaker 1 (27:52):
And what about the people who like? My lord? You know,
what are we gonna do that? Here's where I think
I might be walking into something. Hey, hey, Fred, it's Sydney.
I'm wondering if you could make and just tell me
if I'm making an idiot myself right now, make a
prediction on my social experiment for Halloween this year, I'll
be offering either a bowl of candy or a bowl
of raw potatoes. The kids can take one. The experiment

(28:13):
is to see which bowl empties the fastest. Is am
I missing a joke here? I don't know, like if
she setting me up? Am I saying something that? Like
the youth are saying that, and I sound stupid because
I don't don't understand, like they're gonna take the candy.
No one's gonna take a potato? Wow? Like, So what
am I missing here? I don't let me tell you
what's gonna happen. The candy is gonna empty faster. If

(28:34):
it's a bowl of potatoes or a bowl of candy,
the candy goes first. I don't know what I mean,
and I think the potatoes should stay untouched.

Speaker 5 (28:40):
Unless my mom goes like, no, honestly like potatoes, my
mom coming.

Speaker 1 (28:44):
I mean, it takes up two hours to make a potato.
I don't have time for that. Like, I've never maked
a potato in my life. It's not the only time
making a potato is if I cut it real small
and cook it fast. Like I'm not, I don't have
like what. I can't remember the last time I was like, man,
I would really love a potato. I have hours to wait.
I do too. It takes forever. It takes forever to

(29:06):
bake a potato. It certainly does, you know. So then
if I really want a potato, then I go to
Jason's Dellly and paid twenty four dollars for potato that's
got loaded potato, loaded baked potatoes. I mean the slaps
excepted seventeen bucks. And I don't know why, Yeah, all right,
why don't I don't know what? We need more info.
I feel what it's trying to be. I'm missing something
on that I think's entertainer report is on The Fresh Show, Where.

Speaker 6 (29:30):
Do is that?

Speaker 2 (29:30):
Margot Robbie is in some pretty serious talks to star
in a gender swapped remake of American Psycho, playing a
female version of the original serial killer lead. If all
goes as planned, Margot will play the female counterpart of
Patrick Bateman, the finance bro the serial murderer from the
original novel and two thousand film. I didn't realize this,

(29:53):
but this article says that the original film faced controversy
for its graphic violence and perceived miss I thought that
was the whole point of the movie.

Speaker 1 (30:03):
He's a he's a killer. It's not good. He's not
a good dude.

Speaker 2 (30:08):
I still think about that scene where he gets you've
seen it, right, Fred. I'm not going to ask Jason
if he's seen it, but where he talks about Whitney
Houston and the music and his CD collection. Oh yeah,
I mean if you haven't seen it, watched the movie,
But yeah, I guess she's in talks to play a
female lead of that, which I could see, and that
would be amazing, even scarier. Kelsey Grammer is now a
dad of eight. The seventy year old Fraser star welcome

(30:30):
to baby boy named Christopher with his wife Kate Walsh.

Speaker 1 (30:33):
He shared the.

Speaker 2 (30:34):
News on an episode of Pod Meets World, which is
like a lot of different worlds colliding. Their first three
kids were born between twenty twelve and twenty sixteen. He
has four other children with different partners, one of which
Camille Grammer, who was not only a housewive, but she
was an og MTV like spring Break girl, and.

Speaker 6 (30:52):
She let us know too, I'm the real housewives.

Speaker 5 (30:55):
When they introduce her the way she did, She's like
just a didn't Oh is she on the Grind?

Speaker 2 (31:00):
It was one of those shows and they have her
on I think spring Break. She just would be lady
like dancing.

Speaker 1 (31:06):
All What a simple time that was. You know, you
come home from school and turn on MTV spring Break
and it was just every now and again, I'll go
on YouTube and pop up a Grind video because it's
just it's just so funny to me. It's just it's
hilarious to me, Like the show is just funny. Like
they obviously cast these people. If unfamiliar with the concept,
they would have like a DJ and then they'd play

(31:28):
like you know, and all it was was like they
had a set on a beach, you know, in like
South Podre Island, and these people would just dance approximately
three feet apart from each other, you know, because they
were all like spaced out, and they could you could
tell they were told like to stay in their bubble
because they weren't dancing with each other. So it was
like they would just stand there and kind of move
on the platform right exactly, and then and then the

(31:51):
camera angles would like like you know, all pan around
or whatever. Dave Chappelle hosted one. It was just wild.

Speaker 2 (31:58):
Artists would come like on spring break, you know. Stoop
Dog would be like, what of spring break?

Speaker 1 (32:02):
And I would be like, yeah, it was thirty minutes
of just random people from you know, like Fort Madison,
Iowa on spring break in South Padre, like and they
would just stand there and sort of like yes, just
you can't see what I'm doing. But it was just
it was just this and I'm like, where did you
find these people? Like how did you cast these people?
I don't know, but shout out to Cameo Grammar. We

(32:24):
sit there and watch this. We did thirty minutes later,
I'm like, nothing happened.

Speaker 2 (32:29):
Was streaming services so like there was limited options and
that's what we would watch. And I was like seven Picturing, like, oh,
I'm going I want to go on spring Break.

Speaker 1 (32:37):
I had no business, but there we are. I should
text our the chairman of our company, who was part
of the group that invented MTV. I would love to
know what he thought about the Grind. I would also
like to know what Bob Pittman thought about the liability
of spring Break in general, like that whole production, like
taking your network to you know, some spring breaktown with

(32:59):
a bunch of college kids, and like putting on constant parties,
like how is that? How many lawyers did you send
down there for that at that time? Probably not a lot. Yeah,
there were less rules back then. I'd be alive. I'd
be like, as an executive, I don't think I'd sleep
for a whole week. I'd be like, what do we do?
How many Grind episodes are we do in I wonder
if he would do the tangent with us so we
could pick his brain. I wonder if you would have

(33:19):
to ask him MTV it could be the best thing
we do in our career. It also could be the
very worst. Maybe we don't tell him about the tangent.

Speaker 2 (33:26):
Actually, yeah, right right, and Leslie really quick, Pauline, I
thought of you because Jennifer Lawrence says that she understands
why people found her annoying back in the day. She
finally did Yeah, you finally got to her.

Speaker 1 (33:38):
You got it.

Speaker 2 (33:39):
She's admitting that she looks back at her past interviews
and thinks the person she was then was so hyper
and so embarrassing. She said that her over the top
press persona was partly a defense mechanism to cope with
the pressures of fame and public scrutiny. She says that
doing press makes her feel like she loses control of
her craft, and that she's grown tired of the constant
media appearances and she's had kids.

Speaker 1 (34:00):
Then she's gone away. But people found her annoying. I
know you did. So she's growing, She's looking back and
she gets it.

Speaker 2 (34:06):
If you want to catch up on the show, by
the way, from today or any day, you can type
the Fred Show on demand on the free iHeartRadio app Sudney.

Speaker 1 (34:15):
Hi, Fred, You're the Potato Lady. What am I missing?
So the question was your social experiment is you're going
to put out a bowl of candy in a bowl
of raw potatoes, and you're going to see which one
goes first. Why?

Speaker 7 (34:28):
Absolutely, So, there's no joke to it at all. It's
just wondering if something. If a kid is offered, you know,
candy at every other house, and then they're offered something
as strange as a potato, the question is would they
take the potato or are they going to take the
candy that they can get at any other house.

Speaker 1 (34:46):
They're not going to take the potato. They're not going
to take the potato. What are they gonna do? Ken
doesn't know what to do with the potato?

Speaker 7 (34:53):
I maybe what what if they take a candy at
any other house and then they're offered a potato. You
don't think they're going to take the potato.

Speaker 1 (35:00):
They just want more candy. I mean, I don't know. Yeah,
we're back.

Speaker 3 (35:06):
Are you live streaming this because like this needs to
be on TikTok live, so yeah, we watch.

Speaker 6 (35:10):
I have to see what happens.

Speaker 1 (35:11):
Yeah, well, I don't know.

Speaker 7 (35:13):
You know, I will, I will, I will, I will
get a recording. I'll send you a quick snippet of
of what happens.

Speaker 1 (35:18):
Because I could be wrong.

Speaker 7 (35:20):
But then potatoes, the potato, potatoes might be the winner.

Speaker 1 (35:25):
The potato might wind up going through somebody's window or
something like. I feel like I feel like it's too
massive of a thing just to give children, Like I
think it's I feel like it's a potato is too dangerous.
I don't know what I'm saying, like, I don't like the possibilities.
If they're heavy, they're they're they're they're dense. I don't
I don't know, Sydney. I'm not sure, but let us

(35:45):
know what happens. Okay, I'm on the edge of my seat.

Speaker 7 (35:48):
I will absolutely have a nice day.

Speaker 1 (35:50):
Thank you. I am going to Dallas on Friday to
witness Halloween trick or treating because usually not on a Friday,
so I get to go this year and see Polly
in Man. I don't know where they're going to be yet,
but apparently the tradition has begun with Polly where This
was a tradition in our house growing up, as with
the cookie sheets came out and the candy was all
organized like in a very OCD manner. All the types

(36:14):
were all put all together and then they were sold
to my grandparents. I would sell the candy to my
parents and grandparents for twenty five cents per little thing,
and they'd buy it. It was a little store that
I opened up, and I think for them it was
like this is cheaper than him staying up all night,
you know, eating all the candy or whatever. So apparently
Polly's onto this now where she's going to sell the
candy she got for free, which entrepreneurial. I like it.

(36:36):
I love it. I like it a lot. But I'm
gonna if she doesn't know this, I'm going to teach
it to her, and then my sister will yell at me,
what do you do? Why are you teaching to that? Gotcha?
It's my job. I'm the uncle. Okay, it's my job
the teacher the things that you won't Hey, Anita, Yes,
why were you giving out potatoes on Halloween?

Speaker 10 (36:54):
Like?

Speaker 1 (36:54):
What are we doing? Is this a joke?

Speaker 11 (36:56):
Are you?

Speaker 1 (36:56):
Is someone punking me? Am I on the grind? What's
going on? Yeh? Boiling points?

Speaker 12 (37:01):
No, we tried it one year just for fun. I
put out I had a bowl of potatoes and I
had a bowl of candy. And let me tell you,
almost every single kid took the potato versus the candy.
It was hilarious what we gave out over one hundred
and fifty potatoes that right.

Speaker 1 (37:16):
Oh so this is like a thing, one hundred and
fifty potatoes, right, that's a budget, right, I don't know.
I don't know about it. Okay, all right, No, I
don't do that. Just just give out candy. Keep it simple.
You know.

Speaker 12 (37:30):
The kids loved that. They were all laughing. They like
were showing their parents that they got a potato.

Speaker 8 (37:35):
It was hilarious.

Speaker 1 (37:37):
I mean, it's kind of funny, I guess, but that
just seems like a waste of one hundred and fifty potatoes,
Like that's that's a lot of hash browns. Man, Anita, Okay,
thank you, have a good day too. I just I
thought you you were messing with me. I thought you
were trying to get me to because I am Ron
Burgundy and I'll read whatever, you know, so I thought
maybe they were trying to get me to read that
out loud. And then it was a joke, you know

(37:57):
that you guys, like six seven, you guys were all
going to tell me, like I'm not one hundred percent
clear on it, and I googled it and I've asked
AI to chat GPT nicely. Okay, what I don't? I don't.
It's like it's just like no, it's just like a saying.
But I'm sure there's more to it. I don't know.
I feel really dumb. But I really shouldn't know what
that means. There's really no reason that I would know

(38:18):
what that means. So, you know, for the executives listening now, going, oh,
friend sounds old. He doesn't know what that means. No,
if I did, that might be concerning none of us.
If I know a high school slang, then that's worrisome.
But that's why we have a lot of listeners of
the show of Different. You know, maybe can you call
now and explain to me what that what it is? See,
that's what I rely on, you guys to help me

(38:40):
understand the things that I don't you guys in the room,
and then also the people because we got a wide array.
We got people who were much older and we got
much younger people listening. So maybe you can help me
with this one. First of all, no potatoes, And second
of all, what is six seven? Unless it's something really terrible,
then I don't really want to know. Blogs are more

What is there?

Speaker 9 (42:37):
Okay?

Speaker 13 (42:37):
I worked entry school, and I would say about ninety
percent of my kids will tell me that they don't
know what it means. But I think the best way
to compare is that it's this generation twenty one, like
the nine plus ten?

Speaker 1 (42:49):
By fine, what does that mean?

Speaker 13 (42:53):
The vine that was from I don't know, maybe ten
years ago, and it said what's nine plus ten and
it's said twenty one and everyone laughed.

Speaker 12 (43:00):
I would say, it's this generations twenty one.

Speaker 13 (43:02):
It's just the number that kids find funny.

Speaker 1 (43:06):
Huh. I guess I missed two trends.

Speaker 7 (43:08):
Then.

Speaker 1 (43:08):
I don't know where I listen. I don't know where
it was the other one. But I was impresent for
that either. Maybe I was unconscious. I'm not sure, all right, Sidney, Well,
thank you, thank you. Yeah, I don't know. I don't know.
It's probably Tom Yeah right, it's probably okay. I don't.
I don't mean, it's not like an old hit. I
just I don't. I don't know. I count on you
guys for that, and you really let me down on it.

Speaker 2 (43:29):
Honestly, I don't know any elementary schoolers. I apologize if
you could work on that.

Speaker 11 (43:36):
Better than These are the radio blogs on the Fred Show.

Speaker 1 (43:41):
So it's like we're running in our diaries, except we
say them a loud. We call them blogs.

Speaker 5 (43:45):
Paulina, Yes go, thank you so much, dear blog I've
been out of.

Speaker 6 (43:50):
The babysitting game for a minute. Okay, I used to
be a babysitter nanny.

Speaker 5 (43:54):
If you will, and I will, you will, I will
because I'm because these girls are they make money, honey.

Speaker 1 (44:02):
Okay, I know it's a such your one right kind
of thing.

Speaker 5 (44:04):
I want to be clear, and you should absolutely be
paid what you are owed and what you deserve.

Speaker 1 (44:08):
And babysitting and childcare is no joke.

Speaker 5 (44:10):
That is a job, and it's a difficult job and
for us, like I know Cayleen needs to do it too,
like it was such a fun job like when you're younger,
especially in college. And I'm trying to expand my village
right now. So I have my mother in law and
I have my mother, and then my sister in law
is helping. But next year things are going to change
for her, for my sister in law, so she'll be
out of the picture completely for a little bit. And

(44:31):
then my mother in law works full time, so does
my mom, and everyone's got these opposite schedules. And I
am so grateful and blessed that we've gotten this far
eighteen months in where like I was able to really
just lean on everybody, and that is a blessing.

Speaker 6 (44:43):
I don't take it for granted for a second.

Speaker 5 (44:45):
And what I've been doing, though, is getting like little
part time like babysitters, mostly people that I know. So
like if you had like a niece or something fred
or Kaylen or whatever, and then you'd be like, oh.

Speaker 6 (44:56):
Yeah, yeah, and she's live in our states and.

Speaker 1 (44:57):
I'm trying a babysit gig, so you she's eady bucks
an hour, probably wants Teddy Bucks an hour.

Speaker 5 (45:02):
And you know what, my girl deserves that. But at
the same time, we got to be a little realistic. Okay,
can I please read to you what a sitter told
me that she charges And I don't think it's crazy.

Speaker 1 (45:14):
How old is this person?

Speaker 6 (45:15):
I want to say, maybe like twenty two to twenty.

Speaker 1 (45:16):
Three, twenty three years old. Okay, it's just like a
side job for this person.

Speaker 5 (45:20):
This is a side job. I believe she's still in
school one kid for one kid, and I'm then that
doesn't matter. And I used to hate this as a sitter,
like I'm upstairs for the most part, like doing other things,
like working on other stuff, so like I'm in the building,
but I need someone to like watch gg play with her,
feed her lunch because I can't do both, and then
like being a phone call or a zoom or like,
you know, do you like typing emails? Like I can't

(45:41):
do that with a two year old or almost two
year old, Like it's really difficult, you know, when they're
pulling your computer or they're on your leg screaming, like
it's really hard and that's really embarrassing too when you're
on a call. So I'm like I and honestly too,
she has more fun with these sitters because they're younger
and they're fun. They want to like play. I want
to play too, but like we and Gig play all day,
so like it's fun when a new face comes in.
She it's really excited. I've got two sitters that are

(46:02):
like on rotation. Their neighbors they live like a couple
houses down, very convenient neighbors are Also these girls are
also in high school, so they've got school, which is
way more important than me. And then they've got extra
cour relativities. They've got the sports and this. Okay, So
I found this girl and she's really sweet and I
love her, but I just want to know if I'm
crazy or if I'm like missing something here. Okay, she asked,

(46:23):
you know, hey, you're doing really well. Blah blah blah.
She goes for ongoing care. So I guess that means
like it's not like a we're not doing a set schedule.
It's more ongoing if you will. Like there's no like
full time, part time position. It's like maybe like ten
hours of Begney everything. Yeah, my starting rate is thirty
dollars an hour.

Speaker 6 (46:40):
Okay, I've heard of this. This isn't crazy, and I baby.

Speaker 5 (46:44):
Said before, even for like celebrity kids like I've baby
said Dave Girl's kid, like I've.

Speaker 1 (46:47):
Done all this.

Speaker 5 (46:47):
Yes, yeah, yes, yeah, it's the funny was there was
a whole thing.

Speaker 6 (46:51):
Yeah, it was a really cool day. It was a
really cool day.

Speaker 1 (46:53):
Okay, how much does she want? We got a dial
it in here.

Speaker 5 (46:57):
It's an hour is I'm not going to say it's
crazy today because it's not like back then I charged fifteen.

Speaker 6 (47:01):
I'm gonna be so real.

Speaker 5 (47:02):
This is also like seven years old, so ten years ago.
Seven ten years ago. Okay, so we doubled the price.
Not terrible, I'm not mass she wants. She's twenty something
years old. She wants thirty bucks an hour. There are
forty year olds that don't make thirty dollars an hour,
So I just feel like that's not that age matters.

Speaker 6 (47:16):
But that's that's a lot.

Speaker 5 (47:18):
But hey for great care, like I will pay that,
And I know a lot of parents will agree with that.

Speaker 6 (47:21):
If it's a great sitter, you trust her.

Speaker 5 (47:23):
I will pay my arm legg and kidney, like for
a great sitter that my daughter loves. Not crazy, I'm
a little like whoa, but like not crazy?

Speaker 6 (47:30):
Okay, this is the part of lost me.

Speaker 5 (47:32):
And then she charges a one hour fee to cover
prep and travel time each day.

Speaker 1 (47:38):
Prep she prepares? She like prep like why are we
waxing a vaccine for this?

Speaker 7 (47:44):
Like?

Speaker 1 (47:44):
What are we? Like? Prep?

Speaker 5 (47:45):
Is?

Speaker 7 (47:45):
She?

Speaker 1 (47:46):
Now? Hold on? Is she like teaching?

Speaker 7 (47:48):
Is there?

Speaker 1 (47:49):
Like is there like a little program for the day?
Like are we doing craps? And then she goes, no,
I'm being honest, like, wow, what are we what are
we prepping for? And I guess I figured that traffic
or commute was just sort of rolled into the thirty
bucks an hour, which I think is I don't I
think for an adult, I think that's probably about right.

(48:10):
I think that's what my sister pays. Yeah, and it's
not for twenty something because it's a second job, and
that you're talking about an adult now, you're not talking
about a teenager. So the expectations higher.

Speaker 5 (48:21):
And it depends to like where you live, like what
city or like what state you're like the prices do
vary thirty dollars and we live in Chicago.

Speaker 6 (48:28):
I'm not mad at that, that's not I'm not whatever.
I can do that. But I looked at this though,
and was like, WHOA. So I weren't to prep and
then to drive.

Speaker 5 (48:36):
And then she says, I've been working with this mythology
with families who live more than three miles away.

Speaker 1 (48:41):
Mythology.

Speaker 14 (48:41):
Yeah, mythology. I'm like methodology. Okay, so she's into mythology now,
so we're doing the same. What are we teaching that?
What's sort of weird activities? Are we into?

Speaker 5 (48:53):
She is, she's worth thirty dollars and I'll pay that.
I'm telling you, I'll give you my kidney for a good
sitter or someone that can feature me.

Speaker 1 (48:58):
She's gonna teach a kid about zo you might I
think she I think you've met methodology, right.

Speaker 6 (49:02):
Yeah, my bad.

Speaker 1 (49:03):
Yeah, okay, anyway, so you put three miles away, so
I have a problem with that. Wait, so you're paying
an hour for commutanants three hours or three miles, So
if you're more than three miles away, she'll charge you
the fee. We have a radius even so.

Speaker 6 (49:15):
That's what I'm saying.

Speaker 1 (49:15):
I walk more than that a day.

Speaker 5 (49:17):
So I used to drive across like one time for
a baby sname job. I drove two hours when I
live in Los Angeles. Because for to go to like
Orange County, we're.

Speaker 1 (49:25):
Talking about an hour and more in traffic then maybe
maybe or like Maybee, like we're.

Speaker 6 (49:31):
In the same city.

Speaker 5 (49:32):
Unless you live like two hours away, then tell me
this is not going to work, right, because I'm not.

Speaker 6 (49:35):
We're not doing it.

Speaker 1 (49:36):
Thirty bucks an hour doesn't surprise me. Actually the commute
time that you're paying for that kind of surprises me.

Speaker 5 (49:42):
And I'm just and I'm going through the text messages
here people are in shock.

Speaker 6 (49:45):
Just as I am, because I'm confused with.

Speaker 5 (49:47):
The prep Like, hey, exactly what are you prepping? It's
not a resort fee.

Speaker 1 (49:50):
Like at a hotel, Like I don't really know what
I'm paying for. Roll it in man, like, don't don't
nickel and dime me, Like, I hate that, and I
got they gotten rid of a lot of resort fees too,
cause for that reason, because you show up and you're like,
it said two hundred bucks a night for the room
gazing the resort, and it's seven hundred dollars I check out.
I'm like, wait, what was all this all? Well, you know,
did you want to use like did you want to breathe? Like,
did you want to use the hallways? Did you oh,

(50:11):
you wanted you didn't want to climb through the window? Well,
then I'm sorry, then you're gonna have to pay it again.
Four feet A lot of people, a lot of people, Uh,
forty five bucks a day, thirty dollars an hour is crazy.
People are saying they want to quit their job. Now
say twenty bucks an hour look at me. Yeah, a
lot of people think it's it's a little bit high.

(50:31):
What is prep and drive charge? Baby's hitting three miles thirty?
But yeah, again, if you insisted on it, someone who lived,
you know, twenty miles away and was gonna have sit
in traffic for an hour and a half full time
is money and absolutely and so you know that costs
and gas is expensive, and I guess I would get that,
But then you know, I think thirty bucks is high.

Speaker 6 (50:50):
Is on the high side, on the high side, it is,
so then.

Speaker 1 (50:53):
You're already charging a premium. Yes, so I don't know.
If you insist on that, then maybe you charge thirty
five an hour or something, and then it's in because
I get what am I getting?

Speaker 8 (51:01):
What is it?

Speaker 1 (51:01):
Prep? Are you showing up with like again? Are you
showing up with a with a program? Or are we
doing arch and crafts? Are you showing up with little clay?
Are we doing hacks? Do you bring your own rag?

Speaker 7 (51:10):
Like?

Speaker 1 (51:10):
Or what are we doing here? And then and then
you have to pay for her food too.

Speaker 5 (51:14):
She didn't say that, but I always do as somebody
who like was a sitter, and then I hire sitters.
I will pay for lunch because I I'll order lunch
sometimes with the baby and me, and I'll be like, well,
what would you like, I'll get them what that would.

Speaker 1 (51:23):
Be messed up if you ate in front of her.

Speaker 6 (51:25):
No, that's really rude.

Speaker 5 (51:26):
I'll leave ali food like I'll always get, like any sisters,
a tube your sister Amy, she does it.

Speaker 8 (51:31):
Two.

Speaker 5 (51:31):
I mean Amanda, I'm losing it today. Amanda orders fooch show,
order food for them, right, you should I feed your babysitters. Yeah,
feed your sitters.

Speaker 6 (51:39):
But it's expensive.

Speaker 1 (51:39):
I mean, like you know, so like this weekend, I'm
gonna be there and on Saturday, she's hiring a babysitter.
And I believe this woman works at the school where
my sister is a counselor, and so she's like a teacher,
so she's legitimate, but coulle and may know her, so
they there's like a comfort whatever. I think she's thirty
bucks an hour, and so if we go out for
three hours or four hours, you could add one hundred

(52:00):
twenty bucks to whatever we did exactly. So you know,
you go have a nice dinner, however much that costs.
You go someplace real classy like Applebee's or something. You know,
you get three people, we all get the three for me.

Speaker 2 (52:12):
You know kids though usually people will charge more for
multiple kids.

Speaker 1 (52:14):
So thirty dollars for two kids is a nice sty
But this is that's a racket because the native is
already asleep. But my sister is funny about this. My
sister will be like no, no, no, if we're hiring
a babysitner. They're coming at five, we're gonna eat at six.
I don't care because that woman is gonna get paid
to bathe my children right, put them down, Like we're
not doing the thing where the two kids are already

(52:36):
in bed, and I got to pay thirty bucks an
hour just to make sure they don't burn the house down.
Like you know, my sister wants to get a little
something their money's worth, right exactly. So usually it's like
they're coming at five thirty six, I'll feed them dinner.
I pay them for every hour. But you got you know,
you're doing bath time and you're doing nighttime whatever stuff.

Speaker 5 (52:53):
But I love that she still pays them that rate
even when the kids are sleeping, because some people will
fight on that shoe.

Speaker 6 (52:58):
It's so weird.

Speaker 5 (52:59):
Taking they're like, oh, kids are asleep, and it's like
that doesn't mean anything. The kid can wake up, the
kid can cry. The kid's next to me and it's
happened to me. It's midnight, and the kid's like not
going back to sleep because mom and dad are not there,
so they don't want to go back to sleep, you know.

Speaker 1 (53:10):
To be an alert, Yeah, that would be something if
it's like forty dollars for waking hours, thirty for sleeping
people do that. It was a menu, take your own
prices here, and it's like I refuse to pay that
for sleeping hours, Well then I'm leaving.

Speaker 6 (53:24):
It's your kid like price.

Speaker 1 (53:26):
You want them alive. Yeah, it's expensive. That's really expensive
because again you know you're adding one hundred plus dollars
to your date night. Yeah, it's already you know, an
adult date night with some drinks and stuff. You know,
come on, like talking one hundred hundred and fifty bucks,
go out to dinner, have some drinks, two hundred and
fifty bucks to go out for three hours. You know,
I can see why people wouldn't do that, but stay

(53:47):
or go. By the way, Daddy Bob Chairman did text
me back. He did invent uh MTV and spring break.
And as for liability a little looser times back then,
No pun intended, because I asked him. I was like,
how did you like sleep at night when you were
doing this stuff? Because I you know, now you could
not need that. You could do it. You have to
sign waivers and yeah, you'd have fifty lawyers out there

(54:10):
and zero social distancing and masks and wrap people at
the late next time allergies? Right, oh god, I mean,
what kind of candy? Do we have toys for the
kids that don't eat candy? What are we doing here?
You know the right? Right? How much is babysitting? What
do we do? I gotta pay for prep time? That's crazy?

(54:32):
What is prep? That's another thing? And you know what,
I think you should flip the script on these babysitter types,
like if you no, and look, I like this, I
understand that it's not five bucks an hour anymore, ten
or fifteen or you know whatever, and it's a big
responsibility and you and if you get somebody good. I
also have heard it can be very competitive, where like
people will find a good babysitter and they don't want

(54:54):
to tell their friends about her because they want to
make sure that she's available. Yeah, that's real on like
Saturday for them, And so a lot of them will
pay even more to make sure that they're the preferred house.
Right exactly that you could flip the script and be like, hey,
if I'm paying a premium rate, like so let's say
thirty bucks. People seem to agree on the text that
in our little focus group here, that that thirty bucks

(55:16):
is a premium rate for a babysitter. If I'm paying that,
what language do you speak?

Speaker 8 (55:21):
What?

Speaker 1 (55:21):
Like? What? What? What are you bringing to the table here?
You know, like what what are we? Are you an artist?
Are you do you? I mean, come on, like, okay,
you're prepping for what to teach my kid how to speak?
You know Mandarin? Okay, great, let's do it. Like that's amazing.
I'm all for it. That's thirty bucks an hour. That's real.

Speaker 6 (55:40):
It's expensive. You guys, stay safe out there.

Speaker 1 (55:43):
Honestly, if I ever had a kid, and I don't
think it's happening, but if I ever had a kid,
We were saying this off the air, like I would
absolutely if I had babysitters or help or whatever, if
I if I could afford that, then I would. Those
people would bring something to the table that I well,
in addition to like knowing how to deal with children,
they keep them safe and things like that that I
don't know how to feed them and things I don't
know how to do. They would have to I mean

(56:05):
a language like like different sort of perspective, and I
would almost be do you speak to little Freddie and whatever,
whatever your native tongue is, like, that's the that you
guys can interact like that, because yes, because I want
my kid to be way smarter than I am here,
and I don't I think speaking more than one language
is almost has become like the way it needs it

(56:26):
should be the way it is in the world. So
say or go. This is a note that we got
and this woman does not want to be on the air,
but she wanted us to read this entire email. So
I want to know what you guys think. We're debating
some relationship drama here. I feel like this is pretty
relatable eight five, five, five, nine, one one oh three five. Unfortunately,
I think people can relate to this, but it says
Dear Fred's show. I'm struggling to decide if I should

(56:48):
stay with my husband of three years together for nine
and would love some insight. We started having problems about
two years ago, and I feel like we just can't
seem to stay in a happy place. I did start
going to therapy after the problem started, and eventually he
did too. We even started doing couples sessions in addition
to our individual sessions. They seem to help for a bit,

(57:08):
at least in the sense that we'd fix the problem,
but then after a few weeks we'd be having the
same arguments all over again. We just had a baby
in March and he was two months early, so that
led to a five week nick You stay for him
and a Ronald McDonald house stay for us. To say
that that tested our relationship would be an understatement. I
guess part of me really hoped that he would finally

(57:29):
step up to be the man I wanted and needed
once he became a father. Don't get me wrong, he
is not a bad person. But I feel like I'm
putting all my energy into saving our relationship, but despite
me asking, he's not doing the same. I never wanted
a broken family for my baby, but I know that
I also don't want him to grow up in a
home full of anger and arguments. I've contemplated staying until

(57:51):
my baby is a year old, but even that has
started to feel like an impossible challenge. I'm starting to
wonder if we're even compatible anymore, but I don't know
what the right answer is. I would love all of
your input. Thanks for your time. First of all, I
don't know none of us fortunately have any experience in
you know all of that. You've got a relationship that
with struggles, you've got a kid now, a kid that

(58:13):
was sick. I mean, I know that that is incredibly
stressful for relationships, and so you add that challenge to
all of this, and it's like, you know what person
am I getting?

Speaker 10 (58:22):
Right?

Speaker 7 (58:23):
Like?

Speaker 1 (58:23):
Am I? We're so stressed out? You know, we're trying
to take care of our baby, and so I mean,
you separate that from all of this, But they were
having problems before that. Again, I don't know that it's
fair to judge people when they're under pressure, but they're
both under pressure, and she doesn't feel supported. And I
don't know how he feels because we haven't heard his
side of it. But eight five, five, five, nine, one
one oh three five I'm curious what would you guys

(58:44):
do in this situation? I mean, this woman, you know,
she doesn't feel like she's connecting with her partner anymore,
and you know they have gone to therapy and that
at least she's tried. It seems, I don't know what
comes to mind. You're the married one, what would you do?

Speaker 6 (58:59):
I am a married women.

Speaker 5 (59:01):
Honestly, you said the situation is a little bit different,
and you know, there's uh they were they have a.

Speaker 6 (59:06):
Child, right, and then there was some health stuff going on.

Speaker 5 (59:09):
But I do feel like the first i'd say almost
two years of being postpartum as a woman is already
just extremely difficult, and I think it's difficult for both
parties right, Like you're not gonna connect as much. You're
not going to feel the same as you did, like
you know when you first met or even when you
first like got married or whatever. It might be just
because there's so much going on the first year for sure,

(59:29):
but I almost extended to two years of post baby life.

Speaker 6 (59:34):
Life is different.

Speaker 5 (59:34):
They're going through a lot of stuff right now too,
and they did with their own child. So I feel
like if both parties want to, like exactly like in
therapy discussed this, do you want to be in this relationship?

Speaker 1 (59:45):
Do you want to work through this?

Speaker 5 (59:46):
Because if you don't, then one person's already out the
door or whatever, then I would say this isn't gonna work.
But I feel like it's so hard when you are
freshly postpartum to really like make that choice right or
to feel like, oh, do I want to be in
this relationship or because they say it's the hardest.

Speaker 6 (01:00:01):
The challenges relationships and marriages a lot, and.

Speaker 2 (01:00:03):
They were having problems beforehand, and I think she's just
looking for some effort.

Speaker 1 (01:00:07):
It's interesting.

Speaker 2 (01:00:08):
Yeah, I don't know, that's hard if you're already having
existing issues. We know, kids don't fix anything, They make
them more difficulty.

Speaker 1 (01:00:14):
That's what I mean. Like, the problem was there, and
then they introduce a kid, and then you introduce some
of the biological things that occur anyway, and then on
top of that you introduce the stress of the kid
being early and those challenges.

Speaker 2 (01:00:26):
Yeah, I would say, like you said, have a conversation
where it's just a blacker white question do you want
to save this? You know, and both parties answer, And
then if there is no emotional or physical abuse, I say,
then try to maybe work through it a little bit more,
because it would be a very difficult time to go
through a separation as well, and it is hard on

(01:00:49):
both parties. But she said that getting to the end
of the year even sounds difficult for her right now,
which makes me wonder, you know what else is going on?

Speaker 1 (01:00:59):
Yeah, hello, good morning, Hi young, good morning. So you
heard this scenario and stare go and you're saying stay, Why.

Speaker 10 (01:01:08):
I say stay? So my husband and I are actually
going through almost the exact same thing. Like it's crazy
and insane how many couples are going through this right now.
So what's helping us is actually reading that book the
Five Love Languages, YEA, the popular one, and it teaches
people what your partner's language might be, and it could
be like two different languages, like he's thinking one and

(01:01:29):
she's speaking another, and they're just not on the same page.
So getting an insight like that and actually writing something
down like Okay, well this would make me feel loved
or this would make me feel hurt or open, and
then they both do the same thing and it's like,
oh okay, something might click and they understand each other better.
And the whole thing with the baby and the nick you,
we actually had that too, and it's really hard and

(01:01:50):
having a new baby it puts so much stress on
a relationship. But you have to like try and look
at all your options to see what helps you guys
reconnect and understand each other because communication is so important
and if they're like speaking totally different languages towards each other,
it's never gonna help.

Speaker 1 (01:02:08):
The love language thing is temporarily better to your points
you and the love language thing is really impactful because
you're right. I mean, I could be communicating, you know
in a way, or I could be sharing my affection
with you in a way that isn't as useful as
a different way.

Speaker 8 (01:02:22):
You know.

Speaker 1 (01:02:22):
Maybe I'm a gift giver, or maybe I'm a time
spent person in your words of affirmation person and so
here I think I'm putting in the effort, but it's
not landing with you. It's not resonating with you the
way I wanted to because I'm not connecting with you
in a way that would be more productive.

Speaker 10 (01:02:37):
Yes, it's so real. How that is like that my
husband and I were completely different too, So like we're
trying so hard I have to like we're ready to
post it notes now like I felt this such and
such way, and then it will come back to it later.
Because he's a talker and he's the more the physical
touch that I think most guys are, and I'm the
quality time type of person. So it's they might just

(01:02:59):
have very different things. So I think she should stay
for now and really look at all the options. So
I'm curious to know if the therapist that they've been
going to even suggest to that or you know, brought
something like that to their attention.

Speaker 1 (01:03:11):
Yeah, thank you, Jen, I appreciate it, and I hope
everything gets better. I think, yeah, glad you called it.
And there are a few people on the text saying
and you do hear this sometimes like if things are
going so poorly, then why have a child? Well, I
mean there are lots of variables there, like did they
mean to have the child? And then yeah, this sir,
I've heard of scenarios where things are going terribly and
it's like, well, let's let's make a kid and then

(01:03:31):
that'll bring us closer together. Now that's not necessarily great logic.
I wouldn't. I wouldn't say let's add a really really
stressful element to something that's already not working. But I
don't know. I mean, I think there are people that
just relationships are hard. And I'm saying this mostly based
on what I know what I'm not firsthand, but relationship.
I think we would all agree relationships are hard, and

(01:03:52):
so I think maybe some people just assume that it's
going to be challenging and then they still go about
their goals of creating a family, and maybe maybe for her,
the idea of divorcing him really wasn't on the forefront
until recently, you know. So it's like, well, I'm not
going to leave him, We're going to work through this.
It's a hard time, we're going to get past it.
But then as issues compound, it gets worse. So I
don't know that it's as simple as why go and

(01:04:14):
have a kid when things aren't going well. I don't
know that that. I don't know. We don't know enough
to say if that was the logic or not. Hey Emily,
Hey hi Emily, you hear this day? Orgo? What do
you think? I think that she needs to.

Speaker 15 (01:04:29):
Take all the energy she's spending up worrying about her
marriage and everything else and just focus on the child.

Speaker 1 (01:04:35):
They didn't.

Speaker 15 (01:04:36):
It doesn't sound like they were in a solid place
before the child. It's not going to get better. And like, honestly,
she didn't list any reason for being with him, you know,
and I yours can It could be she needs health
insurance or X y Z, but it's like, you know, why,
just want to enhance your life, not the one that's
going to make it more stressful.

Speaker 1 (01:04:55):
Well, in fairness, if she's going to do that, Emily,
if she's not, if she's just going to sort of
abandoned any effort towards the relationship, then she should leave
it right because that's not going to help anything. If
she just says, all right, I'm going to pretending this
guy's not even there and focus on my kid, well,
then then leave right.

Speaker 15 (01:05:09):
Oh yeah, I said, leave like she pokes from having
healthy relationship and just focus on the child.

Speaker 1 (01:05:15):
Yeah, yeah, because yeah, Okay, I get what you're saying.
Thank you, Emily. Here, have a good day. Yeah, fine,
glad you called. Hey Katie, Hi, Katie, Hi, are you hi?
Good morning? So sadly you've been in this situation, but
you're saying stay.

Speaker 16 (01:05:30):
Yes, absolutely would tell me mom. So we so we
have my husband and I have been together or we've
been married for ten years together almost fourteen, four kids,
lots of stress. We almost lost our two months or
our baby when she was two months old at TURFB,
so we were at the university for a few weeks.

(01:05:53):
We just dealt with a two months stay at Riley
with my nine year old for crones. Okay, So we've
had a lot of a lot of stressful situations with
our kids health wise, Money's tight. We both work full time,
but supporting four kids is difficult. But you're going to
have a lot of these stressful situations in your marriage

(01:06:15):
and you kind of just have to look at each
other and say is it worth it? And you just
have to stop and say, you know, I love you,
you love me. At the end of the day, that's
all we need. We're going to just work through it.

Speaker 1 (01:06:28):
Yeah, yeah, I mean it takes a lot of strength.

Speaker 10 (01:06:32):
You know.

Speaker 1 (01:06:32):
There are people saying in the text. One says, does
he do have his half of the parenting? If he
doesn't now, he never will. Do you think that's true?
I mean, is it if the effort is there? I mean,
is that what we're looking for. We're looking for the effort.

Speaker 16 (01:06:44):
Even if we disconnect, You're you're going to put into
it what you want to put into it. So if
he's not wanting to put that effort towards it, then
maybe stop and you know, look at what you are
dealing with. But I mean, it's a fifty thing, especially
when you have kids and when you're both working. Everyone
has to work now, and if he's not putting toward

(01:07:07):
his effort and he hasn't, then you kind of need to,
you know, look at that and say, maybe this isn't
worth it.

Speaker 1 (01:07:14):
She did say his effort is lacking.

Speaker 2 (01:07:16):
That's what she told me, and she's asked multiple times
she feels like she's putting in more effort for the relationship.

Speaker 1 (01:07:22):
Then yes, well.

Speaker 16 (01:07:24):
Then I mean you can have that conversation with him,
and if he doesn't seem to get it, then that
would definitely be something that I would kind of look
into a little bit further.

Speaker 1 (01:07:34):
Well, Katie, thank you for listening, for sharing and good luck.

Speaker 10 (01:07:37):
Thank you you too.

Speaker 1 (01:07:38):
Yeah, I have a good day. And again, you know,
if he were unwilling to get any sort of outside help,
be it you know, therapy or faith based or whatever
it is, then you could say, well, maybe he's depressed
or he has some sort of something going on with
him that if that's rectified, then that might improve the situation.
Because sometimes, you know, you can get in your own
head to where everything seems daunting and then you're not

(01:07:58):
really maybe feeling like you're being productive or valuable to anyone.
But it sounds like he's done some of that, so
he has made an effort. I don't know how much,
but it's not as though he's living this way and
then saying why, well, I'm not going to do anything
about it, which we do here sometimes in this thing. Hey, Laurie,
you went through something similar and you say go. We've

(01:08:21):
had stay and we've had go from people who know this. Unfortunately,
why why go? Because he's not going to change, and
how do we.

Speaker 8 (01:08:30):
Know we can? Well, I went through it. I hope
that when they hurse that when the baby came, he
would step up, you know, be there. And he was
sometimes sometimes he was great, and then he would go
back to doing what he wanted to do and not

(01:08:51):
be in there.

Speaker 12 (01:08:51):
And it was fighting.

Speaker 8 (01:08:53):
And I tried to five years to make it work.
But the same thing, he'll get you know, he's going
to step up, He's going to step up. He was
a great guy.

Speaker 6 (01:09:04):
He's still a great guy.

Speaker 8 (01:09:06):
We're still friends. We co parents died together. But the
unhappiness never went away. We tried, you know, working it out,
and we tried working it out, and he would get
better for a little bit, and then he would just
clide right back into his ways of doing what he
wanted to do, and he was a great husband and

(01:09:28):
a great father when he wanted to be.

Speaker 1 (01:09:31):
So no consistence, but I count on him.

Speaker 8 (01:09:33):
No consistency.

Speaker 1 (01:09:34):
Well, Laurie, I'm sorry, but I appreciate the perspective. Have
a good day you too. I'm not sure we've helped
much because you get a lot of people who've been
through this calling in and it's about fifty to fifty go, stay, go.
I'm looking at all these right now, at a lot
of go uh and then a lot of stay. You've
committed almost nine years to this so or ten years
to this, so you got to stick with it. You

(01:09:56):
got to write it out and you got a lot
of this. Love is not all you need. Yeah, yeah,

Speaker 11 (01:16:02):
Yeah, I've ever been left waiting by the phone.

Speaker 1 (01:16:07):
It's The Fred Show. Hey Teddy, good morning, Welcome to
the program. How are you?

Speaker 9 (01:16:12):
I'm doing all right?

Speaker 1 (01:16:13):
How are you doing doing? Okay? Man? What's going on
with this woman? Lesa? It's waiting by the phone. We're
trying to figure out if you've been ghosted. It sounds
like maybe you have, but we need the backstory. How
did you meet Lisa? Tell us about any dates you've
been on, and then where things are now?

Speaker 9 (01:16:27):
So we met on Hinge and I asked her out
to dinner and we went out. She was even hotter, funnier,
hitt in person than she was when we were texting.
We had a great time, I thought, and we were
planning date number two, but then she just sort of disappeared.

Speaker 1 (01:16:44):
I don't know why. Okay, and you look back on
this date, I ask everybody, but you look back on
this date and everything went well. I mean you left
the date feeling pretty good about where things stood. Hey,
I'm we're gonna go out again, Like I'm going to
reach out and she's going to be interested. The chemistry
was there, conversation was there, and everything. Yeah.

Speaker 9 (01:17:02):
I mean, like I said, she was funny. I was
actually really laughing a lot, and I was having a
great time and she seemed like she was.

Speaker 1 (01:17:10):
Too, okay because the mood's light, you know. So then
what could possibly have gone wrong? I've said that many
times too, and then and then I find out But okay, well, Teddy,
let's play a song. We'll come back and we'll call Lisa.
You'll be on the phone. We'll ask these questions on
your behalf, and you know, the hope is that we
can figure out what's going on. It's possible that she
has something on her end and we can straighten things out.

(01:17:31):
I've sent you guys have one another date that we
paid for. Sound good? Yeah?

Speaker 15 (01:17:35):
Good?

Speaker 1 (01:17:35):
Hey, Teddy? Yeah, all right, let's call Lisa. You guys met,
you went on a date. You thought the date went great,
tales so oldest time. Hello, But you have not heard
from Lisa since the date, and you're puzzled. You're disappointed.
You want to know why. Yeah, exactly.

Speaker 9 (01:17:50):
I mean I've reached out to her, but she hasn't responded.

Speaker 1 (01:17:53):
Okay, well, let's call Lisa and see if we can
get her on the phone and figured this out. Good luck, Teddy, Okay,
he Hi is Lisa? Yeah, Lisa, Hi, good morning. It's Fred.
My name is Fred. I'm calling from the Fred Show,
the morning radio show. I have to tell you that
we are on the radio right now, and I would

(01:18:15):
need your permission to continue with the call. Can reach
out for just a second. Okay, all right, well, thank you.
That's that was Yes, I like it we're calling on
We have of a guy named Teddy, and he reached
out to us so that I guess you guys matched
on an app or something, and and recently went on
a date that he felt went really well. But he

(01:18:35):
says he's reached out to you since the date and
you haven't responded. He's puzzled. Why is why are you
not responding to uh? To Teddy?

Speaker 8 (01:18:45):
Yeah, okay, this is awkward.

Speaker 4 (01:18:50):
I mean, Teddy is okay, I'm I'm just not I'm
just not interested, all right, I'm just but there there's
more to.

Speaker 1 (01:19:00):
This story though, there's more to this story. Why are
you not interested? Like, here's the thing. Maybe I don't
know if you've ever been ghosted, maybe you never been
ghosted before. But he feels like he's being ghosted. It's
bugging him. He kind of wants some closure if you're
not going to go out with him again, So can
you tell us what happened or why why you've changed
your mind about him?

Speaker 10 (01:19:17):
Okay?

Speaker 17 (01:19:17):
So Teddy basically asks his mom for permission to do
absolutely everything.

Speaker 1 (01:19:24):
Okay, well what does that mean? Like give me an example?

Speaker 17 (01:19:28):
Okay, all right, So when we first matched, he he
and I started talking.

Speaker 10 (01:19:33):
It felt cool.

Speaker 17 (01:19:35):
And then I remember right when we started talking, he
was just like, oh, I don't know what I want
to eat.

Speaker 6 (01:19:43):
And he'd like, you know what, I need.

Speaker 17 (01:19:44):
To call my mom and ask her.

Speaker 10 (01:19:45):
I need calling that.

Speaker 17 (01:19:47):
No, And I was just I was like, all right,
in truth, jan but okay, kind of cute, like he
wants to call his mom.

Speaker 1 (01:19:54):
I don't know.

Speaker 17 (01:19:54):
I just was like all right. Then when we were
trying to figure out when and where to meet for
the date, he made another comment and he was like, oh,
I wanted I want to check. I want to check
to see if my mom, you know, if we're committing
before we're committing to anything. And I'm like, okay, I mean,
I'll just give you the benefit of the doubt. You know,

(01:20:15):
maybe you had plans, like maybe he just kind of
had plans with his mom or something, and you know,
that was that. So I didn't really say anything. And
then my final straw was when we were on the
date and towards the end of the date, I was like,
we're like finishing up dinner and I was like, hey,
actually I have an extra ticket to this concert the

(01:20:36):
following week, and I don't know if he wanted to
come with me, and he's like, oh, yeah, sounds fun.
You know what, I just need to run by my
mom really for so.

Speaker 1 (01:20:44):
This dude, he actually it was a good date, like
you you were going to overlook that and go out
with him again. So he didn't actually fumble necessarily. But
it turns out that the dude can't even like put
his pants on with that asking his mom if that's okay,
which is very unattractive. I mean, it's one thing to
have a great relationship with your mom. I think that's
usually a good sign. But I also, you know, I

(01:21:05):
don't need to ask my mom like where to take
you on a date and if I can go to
a concert next week. I mean, I'm a grown man, exactly.
I was.

Speaker 17 (01:21:13):
I was like, this is you know what now, dude
like absolutely, if you need to go to the bathroom
to check with your mom, Like no, no, this is
a lot is a lot.

Speaker 1 (01:21:19):
I forgot to mention Lisa that Teddy is here and
Teddy's been very quiet throughout this. Teddy, what's it? Why
do we Why are we asking mom, you know, for
permission to go out? Like we're grown ups, we don't
have to do that. Anymore.

Speaker 9 (01:21:34):
Okay, So just to be clear, I don't need my
mom's permission, Like I'm not asking for her permission. I
just I like to get her opinion.

Speaker 12 (01:21:42):
What do you talk?

Speaker 17 (01:21:43):
You ask her for anything, all her opinions before you
do anything.

Speaker 12 (01:21:49):
Do you not?

Speaker 9 (01:21:50):
So what that's not weird?

Speaker 1 (01:21:51):
Yeah? No, it is weird. It is weird, Like at
some point you have to make decisions for yourself because
you're a grown up. I mean I don't. I can't
remember the last time I called mom to ask her,
you know, if I can go to a concert next week.

Speaker 9 (01:22:03):
So you don't consult your mom on anything.

Speaker 1 (01:22:06):
I'm not on. No, not as it pertains to you know,
life issues and decisions that I need to make for myself. No,
Like my schedule is my schedule. You know what I
do with my daisies, my call.

Speaker 6 (01:22:18):
You know you don't at your mound with the calendar invite.

Speaker 1 (01:22:20):
Well, I mean yes, but that doesn't mean that doesn't
mean that she gets a vote. I mean she has
a right to know where I am at all times.
But other than that, you know, a couple facetimes throughout
the date, but other than that, No, that's crazy. Man,
you're grown up.

Speaker 9 (01:22:34):
I mean, honestly, she I checked in with her before
I even did this. She thought it was a good
idea to find.

Speaker 1 (01:22:40):
Out your mom told you to come on the radio.

Speaker 14 (01:22:43):
Oh yeah, well in that case, you know, Mama's always
now we love Mama, get.

Speaker 1 (01:22:48):
Out of here on radio. I mean, there is a
difference between having a close relationship and being a full
on mama's boy. And I think this might be beyond that,
This might be another level above and beyond just mama's boy.
I mean, because this is like, this is like you
need permission, This is like she still runs your life.

Speaker 9 (01:23:06):
And I think, yeah, again, I don't I'm not asking
for permission. Sometimes she says something's a good idea, and
I'm like, I don't know. I just like to get
her input.

Speaker 2 (01:23:14):
But why can't you on her own anything Like it's
that's not an attractive quality?

Speaker 1 (01:23:19):
And why are you telling maybe this is something you
do in you know, in your private life. But I
don't know that I would tell everybody that, because again,
I think women want a confident, decisive guy who has
a good relationship with family, but doesn't need to ask
for permission to do basic things.

Speaker 9 (01:23:35):
I mean, I guess I'm realizing that now. I mean,
I again, I'm not asking for permission, it's just.

Speaker 17 (01:23:41):
A okay, you're you're asking all the time.

Speaker 10 (01:23:46):
This is weird.

Speaker 9 (01:23:48):
Checking in, It's just checking in.

Speaker 1 (01:23:49):
It's a lot whatever, it is.

Speaker 17 (01:23:52):
All right, Well, next time you're going to ask if
we should have sex?

Speaker 1 (01:23:55):
Is that?

Speaker 7 (01:23:56):
Like?

Speaker 1 (01:23:56):
What would mom say about that? Do you think you
think mom would be in favor?

Speaker 9 (01:24:00):
I mean my mom, she's very encouraging of using protection.

Speaker 1 (01:24:05):
So I'm glad that mom says it's okay with protection.
It's very strange. All right, Look, Lisa, I'll ask the question.
I know the answer. It's rhetorical. Would you like to
go out with Teddy again? And we'll pay for it.
We'll ask Mom first and clear it all with her.

(01:24:27):
This is way too excessive for me. Absolutely not weird. Yeah,
not going to work out. Hey, Teddy, Look again, I'm
glad that you have a good relationship with your mom.
That's a nice thing. I might not tell everybody that
I have to ask for her permission to use the
bathroom and and that I run every decision by her.
I might not share that. I might maybe consider not
doing that.

Speaker 9 (01:24:48):
I mean, I hear you. I think I'm just gonna
not so I'll just say I need to think about it.

Speaker 1 (01:24:53):
Right, and then you're going to go to it anyway, Okay,
all right, Well whatever flows about. I guess we've really
got nowhere here but at Lisa. Thanks for your time, Teddy,
good luck to you as well. Camlon's entertainment report and
he's on the Bread Show.

Speaker 2 (01:25:10):
After those reports surfaced that Brittany acted erratically, Britney spears, Sorry,
she's just Brittany to me, but I should tell you
which Brittany it is. Britney Spears acted erratically during a
recent restaurant outing. The general manager of that restaurant, red Oh,
has joined the Chat to defend her. So the manager,
Oliver Wynn, said that the claims of odd behavior at

(01:25:30):
his venue are not true. He said she was super
chill and really nice. She was in and out of
the restaurant within an hour. That's a quick meal. She
just kind of hung out, She grabbed a bite to
eat and left, and he says she didn't even drink.
All she got was a Casidia and then she dipped.
So that sounds delicious. As for Britney now, she also
joined the Chat to defend herself.

Speaker 1 (01:25:50):
She said the look alike was not me, okay, so.

Speaker 2 (01:25:53):
I don't know about that, and then she hinted that
someone else was driving. And then she also included in
the post a graphic of Mini Mouse and Daisy Duck
and wrote that she feels disrespected and uninspired to create
new arc. So that is what she has to say,
and that is what the restaurant owner has to say
or manager.

Speaker 10 (01:26:10):
Rather.

Speaker 2 (01:26:10):
Shack is looking for his custom built one hundred and
eighty thousand dollars twenty twenty five range rover after it
went missing in transit.

Speaker 1 (01:26:18):
So this thing is tailored to his.

Speaker 2 (01:26:21):
Seven feet frame seven foot frame, I think he's seven
to one, which is crazy. And he was shipping it
from Georgia to Louisiana, Louisiana. How do I try to
say that Louisiana after modifications during transit the vehicle went missing,
which again we're stealing things that are very specific, you know,
like Napoleon's girls crown or ring or whatever those people

(01:26:42):
stole at the louver, like this is I don't know
what is it for parts that they're stealing it they
cannot find it, and he is now offering or the
dealership is offering a ten thousand dollars reward to lead
to the recovery investigator. Investigators say that the company had
some sort of sophisticated cyber attack as opposed to an
unsophisticated cyber attack leading to the suv being rerouted or

(01:27:05):
handed off under false pretenses. So he is missing his
custom car. That will be very obvious when spotted.

Speaker 1 (01:27:13):
Yeah, I hope that you can like move the seat up,
you know, because if you're not seven to one, then
it's gonna be a problem. How are you going to
drive it? You're gonna need like a I don't know,
little six. Yeah, you're right, he like stilts or something
to drive his car. That'd be my luck is I'd
steal the car that was adapted for like a very
very tall or very very short person. The tall might

(01:27:34):
work for me, but that's what I would do. And
I would be like, Oh, I'm going to steal this
range Rover, Brandy range Rover, and it was like this
was made for somebod who's five to one. It's great.
Came and drive it and I'm going to jail. Yeah great.
I mean I don't know what they plan to do
with it.

Speaker 2 (01:27:47):
Maybe parts like I said, Country singer James and Rogers
is being sued by a fan who says that he
threw a full beer can into the crowd, hitting and
injuring her. The lawsuit also targets his record label and
the beer brand. An appeals court rules it right exactly,
Sony Music must stay in the case. And the reason
I'm bringing this up is because this case could set
a precedent for how artists are held liable for crowd injuries.

(01:28:10):
So what happens is kind of interesting. But the beer
brand's probably like, how did I get I did not
decide to throw that into the crowd, But there is
something some things that you can give to the crowd
that will make them happy.

Speaker 1 (01:28:21):
And Paulina, this one is just for you. I have
a new band that you're going to be obsessed with.

Speaker 2 (01:28:25):
They are called They're based in Nashville, your favorite place
music city. They are called Arts Fishing Club, and they
went viral after a recent show at the Boogeyman Festival
in South Carolina. While the rest of the band they
were rocking out in Dad's style outfits, so like cargo shorts,
tube socks, they had a dedicated grill master on stage,
flipping hot dogs and tossing them into the crowd wrapped

(01:28:48):
in foil for mess controls got a guitar.

Speaker 1 (01:28:50):
One guy's got you know, like whatever. And then there's
a dude playing the grill.

Speaker 5 (01:28:54):
He's playing the girl that is a business model that
we need more of. Literally, So in between songs, yeah,
you get your hot dog and you can enjoy show.
I love that and I love my hot dogs right right,
you lie and I you have one.

Speaker 6 (01:29:08):
It's a lie.

Speaker 1 (01:29:09):
I E one a year, No, I E one week.
I love a dog. Do you eat the Chicago style
that has all the accoutermond because I think it's a
perfect combination of food. I really do. I think they
nailed it. A lot of people think it's too much.

Speaker 6 (01:29:23):
No, it's a great it's a great thing. I am sick.
It's a great thing. I'm sick.

Speaker 5 (01:29:27):
And I put everything on there and I loaded. This
is really gross with relish, like I just like loaded.
And then I put like a picklejlapinios everything.

Speaker 1 (01:29:36):
That's that's basically Chicago style. No, but like I do
ketchup a mustard yeah, bad girl. Wow, nobody puts his
pa ketchup on that's are you a psychopath. Okay, no
said one of everything, And if you're unfamiliar, the Chicago
style would be the Vienna beef hot dog. And then
you would have the celery salt. You would have the
neon green relish like it's no color found in nature,

(01:29:58):
no at all, even though it is a vegetable originally.
And then you would have mustard, you would have sports peppers,
you would have tomatoes and a pickle spear. I believe
I got everything. Do you put onions on a Chicago style?
I can't remember, I don't think. So, whatever the case,
Polina ro does, Okay, well then that's no longer. That's
your style, yeah, Paulina, and it's the one of everything.

Speaker 6 (01:30:21):
I just love loading it up.

Speaker 5 (01:30:23):
It's so good and then when it like drips off
and then you're like, what are.

Speaker 1 (01:30:26):
We talking about? That we are still talking about a
little hungry. Shout out to Arts Fishing Club and shout
out to us. If you want a hot dog, hot dogs.

Learn so much. It's been hard for me without Kiki
here to like go through the rest of my day
knowing if she would validate my fun fact, like if
she thought it was good enough or non. However, did
you know that turtles can breathe through their butts? What
their butts? Yes, their booty. Turtles can breathe through their

(01:31:11):
butts during winter hibernation. Some turtles use cloacal respiration coloical respiration,
absorbing oxygen through their back end, so it goes in.
I can do I can breathe out with mine. Yeah,
that's something that I knew but didn't need to be
reminded of. More Preads show Next, This is the pread Show.

Speaker 11 (01:32:00):
Yeah, they talk better than these are the radio blogs
on the Fresh Show like for running in our diaries,
except we say them aloud.

Speaker 1 (01:32:08):
We call them blogs. I'm going to take this one,
dear blog. So you guys, if you've been listening for
a little while, then you know I volunteer for an
organization called Pilots and Pause, and I'm a pilot and
so we we use your little airplanes to transport rescue
animals around the country from you know, at risk environments
pounds owner relinquished type stuff to no kills and new

(01:32:32):
forever homes. And the way it works is any rescue
can post their need to have whatever animal moved around.
Typically it's dogs. Oftentimes I'm flying puppies around because I
can get the most of them in the airplane. Kinglin's
done a two hundred pound massive with me though a
mission for hercules. So I've been doing this for a

(01:32:54):
long time. And I get an email if the need
of the whatever whatever the trip is, is within two
hundred and fifty miles of me. So I get this
this morning, Arkansas to Indiana. Two Fennec foxes, foxes all

(01:33:16):
over it a fox you kidding me?

Speaker 7 (01:33:20):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (01:33:20):
So cute and they got big ears. They are two
pounds each, and they're two years old, and there are
two of them and they're going to I guess an
owner had them and they're relinquishing them. Now they're going
to a rescue or like an organization that cares for foxes,
domesticated foxes. Now, they didn't tell me if I can
do it yet, but you know, I'm going to be
in Texas. So it's like, well, Arkansas is near Texas,

(01:33:40):
I think, and then Indiana is where I got to
wind up, so surely I can make that work. I
haven't looked at a map, but I think we can
make that happen. But a fox, and then you guys
were telling me about them, I guess they are a
lot like me. I feel like I can relate to
a fox. What were some of the things about FedEx foxes.
They like to play alone.

Speaker 2 (01:33:57):
They do like to play alone. Now, you are a
good so this one's not you. But they are mostly nocturnal.

Speaker 1 (01:34:02):
I would be nocturnal if I didn't have this job.

Speaker 2 (01:34:04):
Though, Yeah, probably there quick to flee if there's a situation.

Speaker 1 (01:34:09):
Don't yep there for that, absolutely one hundred percent. They
don't love being handled. They do not love being handled.
It's got to be people. They know, dude, this is
me this, I'm made for this. I gotta fly the foxes.
So we're working on it. We'll see if it happens.
I'm so excited now. But I've flown a pig, remember
George the Pig. We've flown lots of different dogs, all

(01:34:31):
different types of dogs, everything from a two hundred. I
think the biggest one was Hercules, and then it was,
oh god, the other one, Frank the Tank. Yeah, Frank
the Tank. Yeah he was. He was on two ten pounds. Yes, yeah,
Frank the Tank.

Speaker 6 (01:34:47):
I remember him.

Speaker 1 (01:34:48):
Yeah, I remember. They sent me a picture of him
and he filled up half of the bed of a
pickup truck and I was like, no, they did something
to this picture. Oh no, he was absolutely that big. Yeah,
he was that big. And did I bring anyone with me?
Or I don't think I did. I think he just
laid down. And which is I mean, that's probably pretty
stupid in me to go pick up an animal that's
two hundred and ten pounds that I've never met and

(01:35:11):
just fly away and in this hope that it doesn't
tackle me and eat me in flight. But uh yeah,
last time what.

Speaker 2 (01:35:18):
Last time the puppies were covered in duty? Oh yeah,
and you stood behind me as I handled all the
duty puppies.

Speaker 1 (01:35:25):
Oh yeah, I like Caitlin handle. I've done my duty
puppy duty many many times. I've been in fancy airport restrooms,
like at the Face where the rich people are, and
I'm just washing these little puppies one by one in
a little sink. Nobody says anything. Everyone's cool everyone because
they know what's up, you know. But it's like rich
people everywhere in big jets, and like Elon Musk walked by,
and I'm like scrubbing a little puppy in a sink. Yeah,

(01:35:48):
most people are very cool. But anyway, so yeah, we're
doing I guess a fox is happening, or maybe maybe
a fox is happening. But I won't do snakes and
snaks in a plane, haha, I won't do. I don't
trust I don't. I just don't. I know a lot
of people love them, and I hope they all live
forever whatever wherever they live, just not with me, and
I just don't trust them. I don't. You guys know

(01:36:09):
that I believe that I can communicate with ninety eight
percent of wild animals. Would you buy a bird? I
don't trust a bird, but I would fly a bird.
I would. I think it might be a little annoying
if it, like talked a lot. They can find themselves. Yeah,
what do they need me for? They don't need me
for nothing? Yeah, I got what do they need me for? Yeah? No,

(01:36:29):
but I think I think a snake and like a
like a tarantela. Yeah no, we're not not with a spider.
It's your only nose. But you know, I did get
a complaint one time. You know, I've talked for a year.
I've done this for probably a decade. I've been talking
about it, and then I did get an email. You know,
I think it's awful that you wouldn't fly a snake.
I can't believe you wouldn't do that. I can't believe
you wouldn't save a snake's life. It's like, well, first
of I've never been asked to, but second of all,

(01:36:51):
I would probably help them find someone else who likes them.
You should be canceled for that. I should be. I
should be I'm not a snake guy, and I should
be canceled. And I don't even know. I don't really
deserve to even the spar snake boots Right now, bos
Well he is these are These are very expensive snake
of fans that I bought with a snake that I
wouldn't fly. So yeah, I'm crowling a villa of snakes.

(01:37:13):
You just get a coat I have at home.
