Speaker 3 (01:22):
Then I can't do it either day.

Speaker 2 (01:23):
Just like, never mind so much you're being trained on
how to do radio. I don't. I think at this
point it's kind of a lost cause. Like I if

I can't be trained anymore. It's impossible. No, She'll be
Shelley two hund bucks in the showdown five questions next hour.
Belah means here on the phone and the text eight five, five, five,

(01:45):
nine one three five. My goal today is not to
yell at any nice people who try and come in
the studio while I'm working with the birthday cake. Yeah,
I all day yesterday. I got to hear about that.
It's like, yeah, so you say you don't like birthday cakes.
I didn't know. I didn't know. I didn't know what
you were doing. Okay, they storm in the room while

(02:07):
I'm working hard.

Speaker 3 (02:08):
That's a point of a surprise.

Speaker 2 (02:11):
Well, I know, but you know, sometimes the surprises are
run here are not They're not the right kind. They're
not they're not thoughtful surprises like the one that you
guys came up with.

Speaker 1 (02:18):
There.

Speaker 2 (02:19):
It's it's like, you know, people don't care, and oh,
it's like, we'll use we've got to have a conference call.
We'll just use this room, the radio studio, the one
that we're performing. Yet, you know, that's that's kind of
what I thought was going on, right right, this is
a performance, Klan. I don't know if you're performing, but
I am certainly performing. Okay, it's a performance to wake

(02:40):
up at this time and have this much energy.

Speaker 3 (02:42):
That's fair.

Speaker 2 (02:45):
I was performing and then you know, these people come
in with a cake and I didn't know. And now
I've gone viral with a meme of me with my
hand in the air shunning shunning the kind people with
a birthday came and.

Speaker 3 (02:58):
Now I've gone viral. I'm performing, gone viral at once.

Speaker 2 (03:04):
My performance has gone viral. Guys. I did something I
never thought I would do yesterday, truly in my life.
I bought a Barbie dream house. Wow, I feel like
I contributed to a pivotal moment in my niece's lives.
I feel like I, I mean, there are certain things
in life that happen. The Barbie dream House for some,

(03:26):
and I know not everybody. I know it's an aspirational
thing and it's only the uncle with no kids and
no real financial obligations, it's able to do something like that.
You know, if I had kids or a four one
K then guaranteed, guaranteed human, then I wouldn't be able
to do this. But I and I was able to
buy the Barbie Dream House. Now, I was told yesterday

(03:48):
that they wanted one by my sister. Because that's another
thing now she's decided is that if it's expensive, then
she'll just recommend that I buy it, and I can't well,
you know this, Kiki and I can't wait and he'll uh.
The girls fully understand that, because I do think at
some point my sister, who I love dearly, I think
she'll I think she'll use it. I think she'll just

(04:09):
tell them like, oh, you wanted you want you know,
these dance lessons, or you want this thing, then I
want you to ask Babba. Like I think at some
point they're just gonna have phones and they're gonna have
my number and then they're just gonna call me and
then I'm gonna have to tell them no. But right
now we know there's a they have my nieces have
people where they have middle people who are you know, handlers,
who are facilitating all of that. I guess they're called parents.

(04:31):
But so I got a text it was the girls
would like a Barbie dream house for Christmas. However, if
you don't want to spend two hundred dollars, you can
get them. And then it was like in lesser enunciate
like you know, I don't know, Like it was like
a lesser thing, you can get them the Barbie town Home.
Ob Yeah, So I didn't. I didn't know this. I

(04:54):
didn't know that they have a more affordable option now
with the Barbie dream House. It's the Barbie town Home.
It's one hundred dollars less.

Speaker 3 (05:01):
Stop it.

Speaker 2 (05:03):
Yeah, it's it's a town home instead of a mansions.

Speaker 3 (05:09):
Right, we're going to move on her dream home.

Speaker 2 (05:14):
It's a Barbie tiny house. It's what it is. And
it's like, I don't yeah, right, and I'm not. It's
too early for those girls to understand how life really works.
That you hope for a mansion, but you wind up
in a town home like that's not you know, or
or not or less, And so I decided to spring
for it, especially after watching Polly's little video of her
singing Happy Birthday to me. I probably watched that thirty

(05:35):
times yesterday. When Amanda says, because you know, Amanda is
a therapist, my sister, so everything is consent, so she
would have asked the four year old, and it was
even alluded to in the video if it's on our
on our social Fridshire radio. She spoke with Polly ahead
of time to make sure she was okay to make
a video for my birthday. So then when in the video,

(05:59):
you can hear her say, now we're gonna do the
thing that we talked about before because you already agreed
to it. But my favorite part of the whole video
is she says, okay, now you're gonna sing Bubba happy
birthday because they called me bubba, because my sister called
me bubba. And then she goes, I'm gonna sing happy birthday.
She she states what she's gonna do because even though
we established it like, we're gonna state it again because

(06:20):
we are we are intentional you know about what we do.
But because of that video that I sprung for the
Baradbie Dream Home House or whatever it's called, I don't
really know what I bought and I'll never see it.
At least I won't see it until after Christmas, because
they do Christmas in Texas. So the nice thing is,
I just sent this gigantic box to their house. I

(06:41):
think it. I would assume it's a gigantic box. It
looks like a gigantic structure. And because and then my
sister has to deal with that, she has to wrap it,
and then they'll have to put it together. Colin will
have to put it together. And then I guess I
just get the glory. So it's really it's it's it's
on theme, it's on brand for what the his uncle
gig is and I just love it. You know, it's here,

(07:02):
Here's here's a here's a Barbie dream House. Buba got
it for you. You. They have to put it together, they
have to manage like how the girls get to play
with it and the whole thing, and I just I
get to be the hero. It's a great job, it is.

Speaker 3 (07:15):
I hope I hope that they.

Speaker 4 (07:17):
Don't put the photo on the box, because I have
seen kids know what they're getting so many different times,
because stupid companies will put like a picture of a
big bike on the side of a box and then
it arrives and they're like, oh my gosh.

Speaker 2 (07:29):
Oh yeah, no, I'm hoping that. I don't know where
they're going to hide this thing, but I think in
the attic I might. They don't listen, so they listen
to another morning show in Dallas. They don't listen to me.
I think they listen to ability to Kid. They don't
listen to me. So it's fine, I can talk. Yeah, no, SERI,
he's a friend. It's fine. But why would they Before
that it was Kid Kratick. I got to hear what
Kid Cratick show used to do. I'm like, well, you
know I do this for a living, right, you know
it's acreliable in the art great, right exactly? You want

(07:54):
to Barbiere, you know what? You get the town home now,
forget about it. Forget about it. I'm returning the dream house.
You get the townhome now. I think the town home
is pretty brilliant marketing though, because it's I think the
dream House was one hundred and eighty bucks, and I
think the town home is like eighty. So somebody at
Mattel was like, guys, look, we're not selling enough of

(08:16):
these houses. We got to really adapt to the times here,
so let's downsize and we'll make it up. But I
know we've talked about it before, But what other pivotal
toys if you had the money. And I get that
a lot of people didn't have the money for this stuff,
but you know, there was always the kid on the
block that had the money somehow, and even though you
were all in the same neighborhood, like somehow, you know,

(08:37):
Jimmy's parents. I don't know if they were buying everything
on credit or what. I have no idea, but like, somehow,
there was that one kid that had the trampoline. There
was the one kid that had the Barbie Jeep or
the or whatever the male equivalent was, like a little
little battery operated corvette or I don't remember what the
eighties version was for a young Fred. But what else?

(09:01):
What else can you guys think of? Like the toys
that like the pivotal toy. The bicycle was one.

Speaker 5 (09:06):
Oh yeah, the Razor scooters. When those first came out,
everybody wanted that first.

Speaker 2 (09:11):
Roller blades were a thing in the nineties. I think
they tried to make them come back. I'm not sure
if they had.

Speaker 3 (09:16):
Oh yeah, that was.

Speaker 2 (09:18):
A pivotal toy for you, Kalin, Tickle Me Elmo.

Speaker 3 (09:21):
Do you not remember how hard they were to get?

Speaker 2 (09:23):
Well, yeah, but I mean that I feel like the
bicycle changed the game like that, like now I can
get on my bike and I can ride into the
sunset and never come back. You know, it was an
ultimate freedom. Tickle Me Elmo didn't didn't really provide me
with the same enjoyment. Well damn, yeah, yeah, I don't know.

(09:44):
I mean, uh, my Ferbies did everything so bad. I
wanted my bar I wanted the Barbie car. I wanted
obviously my parents always bought me.

Speaker 6 (09:54):
The equivalent of everything.

Speaker 3 (09:57):
But I was like, wait, like, I don't want the tractor,
about the pink jew wagon, right? Not tell me nothing
in my Barbie g.

Speaker 2 (10:08):
I'm sure for some kids' phones, I would guess, like
video game systems, I would guess computers, yeah, are like
real game changers, Like you remember, I would imagine you
remember when you got your first phone, when you got
your first you know, computer or whatever. But yeah, so
I'm excited for this now. I just know it's going
to get more expensive from here, which is where I
was really going with this because Kiki I saw and

(10:29):
I alluded to it a couple of times yesterday. But
if you follow her on social media that you took
your nephews to dinner, I was it red Lobsters that
where you were? Yes? Yes, their choice, m hm, I'm sure,
I'm sure it was. And I noticed were there three
of them?

Speaker 3 (10:43):
Yes? Yes?

Speaker 2 (10:45):
And I noticed there were like lobster tails on the table.
I think I saw like crab legs. Yes, there were filays.
There was a seafood I didn't know they had a
seafood tower. Red Lobster that they did, I mean, but
I was just amazing. Were probably three hundred bucks where
the food on the table? YEA for these kids, which
what are you with? Thirteen? And then the other ones
are under ten, aren't they?

Speaker 7 (11:05):
Yes?

Speaker 5 (11:06):
And the problem is starting to be that now they're
like they're tight, so they hang out, they talk all
day on their phone. So before I would take the
littles out and then I would take the older ones out,
and I would do it separately, you know, one check
we'll go to the littles, the other one go to
the Now they're starting to communicate with each other, so
they're like, well, aren't you going to pick up you know,
cam Ari, And I'm like, well, Jackson, no, I was

(11:27):
just trying to take you, you know, Like it's like
now you have to take them as a group because
they ride for each other, so you can't even like
just sneak out and take one.

Speaker 3 (11:34):
You gotta take some. Oh yeah, it's getting crazy.

Speaker 7 (11:38):
Oh.

Speaker 2 (11:38):
I have noticed that Pauli's doing that for Maeve, and
I mean, she's a great big sister, but it would
be like I'll bring Polly something because Mave is what
is she two and a half, So it's not that
she doesn't know. If we've already had this debate on
this show whether the kids at that age even know
if you gave them the gift versus someone else. Polly
absolutely knows if it came from me and that I

(12:00):
gave it to her, and whatever may if I don't
know yet, Like for example, the Barbie House is coming
and Amanda is like, it'll be good for both of them,
like you don't need to get two of them or
something like it'll be fine, but Polly will say, I'll
bring Polly a present when I come to see her.
I'll usually get on Amazon and I'll ship it to
the house and then i'll give it to you know,
it's there already, and then I give it to her
as a surprise, and and then the first thing she'll

(12:22):
say now is what did you get from me? Which
is very nice of you, but I'm like, you know what,
mind's your business?

Speaker 3 (12:28):
Okay, like like giving my toy back? Because that's just.

Speaker 2 (12:34):
Why you a rat? Why you a rat? Polly? Like
what are you doing like in this economy? Like look,
why are you snitching? Like, don't go tell her?

Speaker 3 (12:42):
She's like, what about my sister? You know, does not
know what's going on?

Speaker 8 (12:47):
Like I make the prices for Gigi and she doesn't
know I bring.

Speaker 3 (12:49):
Her like a bunch of hand I don't know. Yeah,
they're happy, like they don't know.

Speaker 2 (12:53):
Well, I'm sure you remember a couple of years ago
we had the debate when Polly was much younger. I'm like,
why am I buying a bunch of toys for this
kid because she's too years old? Like she doesn't know
they came from me, and she's gonna get a bunch
of toys, I mean, so fine. And then you guys
were like, no, you have to buy her toys, and
I did. But the fact is the satisfaction. I mean, yes,
of course she was happy to get something new, but
she I mean there was no like way for her

(13:14):
to have taken inventory of of how much she had
or where it came from. So the joy really is
is in you watching you know, you get like, you
get whatever. However many minutes it takes for them to
open the toy and then throw it to the side,
like it's really about me at that point, like and
so is this Barbie house. To be honest with you,
I can totally see why parents do stuff like this
where it's like, you know, why does why does he

(13:35):
have that? It's like because I there's no Polly is
not getting the town home, which she can have. We're
not I'm not on these streets. People aren't going to
be talking about me like that. You know, they're not
going to be like a I heard Fred was only
a townhouse guy. I heard he wouldn't do the four
he wouldn't do the four payments for the for the
whole thing, you know, So no, I did the four
payments for the whole thing, because I can't have my

(13:58):
nieces because but that's about me, right, It's not even
about them absolutely.

Speaker 5 (14:02):
I mean, I you know I would have sent both.
But you know I want, I want about the Marty
Kolo sat.

Speaker 3 (14:07):
But you know what do.

Speaker 2 (14:09):
They need a town home and and mansion for? If
you got the manchion, you don't need the town home
is vacation home home?

Speaker 1 (14:16):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (14:17):
Oh lord that And then when when Polly doesn't want
to share with me, she did say, go play with
the townhouse. You know, the big house is fine, So
go ahead and put that in the car.

Speaker 3 (14:27):
Uncle for it.

Speaker 7 (14:28):
Thank you.

Speaker 2 (14:29):
I'm curious though. Quickly before we get to the headlines.
The biggest stories of the day eight five, five, five, nine,
one one three five There was a point to all
of them. Well one, it was to brag that I
sprung for the for the I was really proud of
myself because I'm like, I can get out of this
for less. I really can, and they would be they'd
be very happy with it. But no, I went for
the bigger item. But in light of the lobster tails
at Red Lobster for the for the eight year old

(14:52):
what is the super expensive thing that your kid has
asked for? And you're like, where did you come up
with that? Because that's a thing we've learned from Kiki's nephews.
Yep is like I know in this generation now and
it's smart and I wish we could have done this,
but but you know making like in fact, I talked
to a friend of mine about this last night. Her

(15:13):
niece sent her like a I guess there's a shared
document that this teenager made has all of the gifts
different price ranges. It's all organized by price range, and
then there's like some aspirational gifts in there too, Like
it's I don't know what a seventeen year old wants now,
but it's you know, some clothes up here and at
this price point with a link. So all you got

(15:34):
to do is click on the link and then hit
by and then like the addresses in there, and just
I love it.

Speaker 3 (15:40):
It's collably coded.

Speaker 4 (15:41):
Yeah, my sister she has links. It's all right there,
Like we need to do more of this, help each
other out. But yeah, so I guess this girl. It's like,
you know, here's some clothes I want, some gift cards
and then all the way to the bottom. It's like
we in w and Gucci, right, It's it's all the
way down here. It's like, you know, just in case
you feeling really generous, you know, a fifteen hundred dollars

(16:03):
back down year this year.

Speaker 2 (16:06):
Smart And I guess the mom of this teenager was like,
what are you doing putting a you know, fifteen hundred
dollars handbag on this list? And it was like, well,
you know, aunt so and stone might be feeling a
little generous, and so, you know, I got to put
something in there for all price ranges. But I'm just
curious of what, you know, what it was for you
guys like that that your your sister or your nieces
or nephews or whatever. It's like, where did you you want?

(16:28):
What you want flying lessons? You're eight years old? Like
what are you? What are you talking? You want to
you want a private jet?

Speaker 5 (16:34):
Like what do you mean designer? Like why are you
asking for designer at your young tender age?

Speaker 9 (16:40):
Oh?

Speaker 5 (16:40):
You know, like they want Gucci, they want when shoes,
they want to marry exactly. I'm like, I'm not even morning,
I have on fashion nobu, right, how do you you
expect me to pay for this, but that's the stuff
that they asked for.

Speaker 2 (16:59):
Yeah, that's gonna be. But that's going to be where
I come in. Is Polly's gonna say, or may It's
going to say, I want this thing that's expensive, and
then my sister's just gonna punt it off on me.
So I said, but it's cheaper than college. So fine,
you know, here you go, here's here, you're whatever you
want because I don't have to pay for college. Now
let me see her friend. If you've seeing the fifty
plus parking garage from Matchbox for boys, God, that's brilliant

(17:21):
because I would imagine it doesn't come with fifty cars, right,
So you know, if you buy the fifty car which
I guess this is the equivalent of the Barbie dream House.
But if you buy the fifty car garage from Matchbox,
then you could probably have to buy fifty cars because
you can't have the thing like empty, you know what
I mean. Like, so Matchbox is smart because you know,

(17:41):
I would imagine over time you got to keep buying
the kid cars to fill the thing up because nobody
wants like two cars in their fifty car garage, right,
that's pretty smart. Power wheels. Were it in the nineties,
big wheels? Yeah, that those were like that was like
the big wheel in the front and the little one
in the back, like a first bike, right, Is that

(18:01):
what that is?

Speaker 3 (18:02):
I remember the big wheels.

Speaker 10 (18:04):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (18:06):
I haven't had one of those in a few years.

Speaker 3 (18:08):
So I don't It's one big wheel and two little
ones in the back. Oh yeah, a little tricycle.

Speaker 2 (18:14):
All about keeping up with the Jones, is h Yeah, No,
that's I agree. I think a lot of this stuff
is about the parents and not the kids, and then
the kids benefit from it because you know, it was
like when I was growing up and uh, my mom
bought me a Nintendo and it came with a game
that had three games on it, and it was fine, here,
play with this, and then the neighbor kid that she
didn't like I came home. I'm like, well, you know,

(18:36):
whatever his name is, Trey or whatever his name was,
he has ten games. And my mom looks at me,
Trey has ten games. Yeah, he has ten, ten of them. Yeah,
get in the car and we went to Toys r
US and we bought nine more games because there was
no way the tray and his parents that were drunks.
There was no way that they that you know then,
that were very rude, and that their sprinklers sprayed our house.

(18:58):
There was no way that Trey was gonna have more
games than us. There was just no way. So I
think maybe that's I'm teaching people now that I'm teaching
children this morning who are listening. Exploit your parents' desire
to not be the parents that don't give you the thing.

Speaker 3 (19:12):
Absolutely.

Speaker 2 (19:14):
Let me see here. My daughter's a text. My daughter's grown,
but when she was a teenager, she found in a
box my Christmas list from I was a kid. It
had things on it like a Rubik's cube, a necklace,
a clock, radio, and some other little things. She said,
what is this? That's all you wanted? And now, of
course the list are super elaborate. It's right, I mean

(19:35):
think about that, like you know Legos or whatever. But
now Legos are two hundred bucks and you can't just
have like the bucket of Legos like we got. I
got to have the Lego Eiffel Tower. It's three hundred
and ninety nine dollars lighting kit that goes with it.
My fifteen year old son won't give me a Christmas
list for what he wants. He plays video games in hockey.

(19:58):
It's he's super smart, but he doesn't want all kinds
of stuff. I guess that's that's good. But I mean, yeah,
you probably want some ideas of something. I asked for
an easy bake oven when I was a kid. I
thought that was too extravagant in terms of price. And
now they're back, by the way, I think. I think
they're doing better than a light bulb. Now is a

(20:19):
heating element.

Speaker 3 (20:20):
It's an air fryar. I'm convinced.

Speaker 2 (20:23):
Oh god, Now people are sending the other Barbie things.
That Barbie camper. There's a Barbie camp campus. My mom
had that.

Speaker 3 (20:30):
It's still in the garage. She needs this may and
probably they need that.

Speaker 2 (20:34):
Yes, can you stop it right now?

Speaker 3 (20:38):
They need they got a mansion, okay, and.

Speaker 2 (20:41):
That don't get a camper, Davids.

Speaker 3 (20:43):
They need home, man, whatever.

Speaker 1 (20:48):
The biggest stories of the day.

Speaker 2 (20:51):
You actually you asked a really good question off the
erkiki to Jason, who was an only child, like you
wish your Christmas just lit because it was just you
and I guess your parents were like, well, okay, I
really got one, so they can he can have everything.

Speaker 3 (21:07):
Right, Yeah, they have nothing no one else has spend
their money on.

Speaker 5 (21:11):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (21:11):
No, I mean I'm not even gonna lie. And this
probably makes me sound.

Speaker 6 (21:14):
Really bad, but like anything that I could even think of,
like they were getting me, they felt guilty because I
wasn't only just I don't know, but like I have
three cousins that are all boys, their brothers obviously, and
they will come over and tease me, oh, like what
did you get one new one new iPhone did you
get or did you get a new MacBook?

Speaker 3 (21:32):
And I'd be like, yeah, I like, as a matter
of fact, I did it. Would like to see it. Yeah,
but you know my parents were very they blessed me
a lot, so yeah.

Speaker 2 (21:44):
Good doesn't want to only child. Gigi doesn't want toys.

Speaker 3 (21:48):
Oh I'm sure she wants toys.

Speaker 8 (21:49):
I've done the thing though, where I ask people like,
please don't get her toys this Christmas. And I hated
doing that, like I don't want to tell nobody how
to spend their money, like that's so weird to me.
But I was like, you know, I don't have a
kitchen table because.

Speaker 3 (22:01):
I have toys all in his living room.

Speaker 8 (22:03):
I have a bouncy house, like I'm crazy, So I'm like,
I really would like.

Speaker 3 (22:07):
To make face and like not have toys.

Speaker 8 (22:09):
Like and I felt so like weird asking that, but
honestly everyone understood, so that was good.

Speaker 5 (22:13):
Do they respect it because I am the aunt like
my brother's like, no more toys and I'm brushut up.

Speaker 3 (22:22):
Who they're judging me? Yes, but everyone the same to
like get it. I honestly want experiences.

Speaker 8 (22:26):
I'm like, because we are tracked in the house right
now it's winter, I'm like, I want to be outside
doing something with her somewhere, so we'll see.

Speaker 2 (22:32):
I'm going to get her a nice trip to mine
out North Dakota. Uh affiliate there. She's gonna love. It's
gonna for I know she's been saying mine not one
of her first words, dog and mine not. That's yeah, No,
it's it's lovely there this time of year, it's it's incredible.
I had I had a follow up question, but I

(22:54):
got too caught up thinking about negative five, so I
forgot what it was. Oh, Kiky, do you are you
fair about how much you spend on your nephews or
or is there one that sort of gets more because
you like, I mean, maybe you don't love it more.
But you know what I mean, like is there is
the older one. The older one probably you spend more on, right,

(23:15):
because the stuff that he wants is more.

Speaker 5 (23:17):
Yeah, so the older one. My excuse with him is
always like, well, you know, we're his parents. You know,
my brother died unfortunately, so like he gets more from
everybody because we're all you know, we're his parents. But
the other kids, now, like I said, they're starting to communicate.
So I cannot send one more than I've sent the
other because they're going to get together on the phone
and say, well did she send you fifty bucks? Because

(23:37):
she send me, you know, send me nine. But so
now everybody has to be equal.

Speaker 3 (23:41):
They're playing it wrong.

Speaker 5 (23:42):
Oh I would have not said anything I'm telling them,
but yeah, no, everybody gets equal now because I yeah,
they're talking.

Speaker 3 (23:52):
Stronger in numbers.

Speaker 9 (23:53):
Right.

Speaker 2 (23:54):
I have a friend with an eighteen year old niece
and it's a similar situation. I mean it was kind
of like raising a village sort of thing. So not
the mom, but kind of the mom and she'll just
we'll be hanging out and then and the niece will
just send her a text, Hey I need fifty bucks.

Speaker 3 (24:08):
Oh yeah, that's my life.

Speaker 2 (24:09):
And then it's just cash app fifty bucks because you
get so easy to do. It's like, wait, wait, you
need fifty bucks? Like what I cannot even imagine. I
don't know what the equivalent was when I was seventeen
years old. It was probably twenty bucks, but I can't imagine.
If I texted my my aunt and goes, I need,
I need fifty bucks, she'd be like, then go get
a job.

Speaker 3 (24:26):
I don't know exactly.

Speaker 2 (24:28):
Yes, it never would have happened, but I know it's
coming where it's gonna be like I need I need Starbucks.

Speaker 5 (24:33):
And that's how they say it too. They say, like,
my nephew goes, can you send me thirty bucks? I
need chick fil A? Like, no, you don't need chick
fil A. You want chick fil A, and so do
I but I'm not, you know, like yup, but he
gets Itio, you need to.

Speaker 2 (24:46):
Go make a sandwich is what you need to do? Yeah?
So uh. Biggest stories of the day. Severe winter weather
another day, another story like this. It's unleashing travel chasts
across the US, causing widespread flight delays and road accident.
This particular storm system is expected to strengthen rapidly into
what they're calling a bomb cyclone, which not in a

(25:06):
good way.

Speaker 3 (25:07):
Did they use them?

Speaker 2 (25:11):
It's funny, I thought that I'd heard that it was
your nickname at one time, Jason to.

Speaker 6 (25:17):
Actually, hey, yeah, okay, there's something common, yes, cyclone.

Speaker 2 (25:25):
So anyway, Calein and Jason track up the East coast today.
Air travel was hit especially hard on Monday, with O'Hare
reporting the most disruptions. Over fifteen hundred flights were delayed,
more than three hundred for cancel. Road conditions are also
deteriorating in multiple states. Police in Missouri received numerous calls
about accidents. Heavy snowslick roads. Further east, Around a quarter

(25:45):
inch of ice could glaze parts of North Carolina, West Virginia,
and Virginia in the coming hours. The TSA fee that
I was telling you about, Paulina for the real idea
that you have to have, you can no longer use
that print out that you got from the DMV eight
years ago. The TSA I DFI will go into effect
next year. Travelers without a real ID will have to

(26:07):
pay forty five dollars to go through TSA checkpoints starting
next year. Just go get one.

Speaker 3 (26:13):
Yeah, they cross the line with that. I will be
going this weekend. I don't believe you.

Speaker 10 (26:17):
Know I got paid for.

Speaker 1 (26:23):
That's one way.

Speaker 3 (26:24):
Then you got a pretty forty five to come back.
You have a passport, stay stronger. No, not not doing
it toxic. Nope, no money.

Speaker 2 (26:34):
I guess you'd have to do this, by the way,
before you go to the airportsay that GOV and verify
your identity before the air So if you like show up,
you're gonna I mean, they already scream at you, and
I don't really blame them. I don't people who complain
about TSA screaming at you. It's like the reason they're
screaming at you is because you like, people act these
days like they've never been to the airport before. It's unbelievable.

(26:58):
It's like, why don't I always stand behind the person
who's like, wow, I've never seen an airplane. This is crazy.
What does this place do?

Speaker 1 (27:05):
You know?

Speaker 2 (27:05):
And then they get to the line. They got the
belt on, their shoes on, they got you know, the
liquids in the bag, they got everything they do and
everything wrong. It's like, what but now now it would
be that much worse. You would you would get to
the line and be like, well, I don't have a
you know, Paulina, I don't have a real idea, you know, Like,
well then I don't know. Go find a computer somewhere
and you're gonna have to arter it out. I'll right, WEAIMO.

(27:30):
These are the driverless cars apparently drove right through a
police standoff and it's making news video circulating on social
media with this weimo the driverless uber. This is in LA.
Passengers were inside it casually turns left and right and
right into the middle of a live LA police standoff.
In fairness, how would that, WEIMO know that? I mean

(27:51):
it is, it is driving you your life is dependent
upon it. But I guess how would it know? On
the street, officers from the LA Police Department had surrounded
the suspect line face down next to a truck, guns drawn,
commands being shouted, and then here comes this way mo,
just cruising on through. I don't know how they're gonna
fix that, but this sounds kind of dangerous. If you

(28:12):
watched Monday night football, which I know Jason did as
a kicker, and I hope I'm saying this guy's name right,
and you're gonna laugh, but it's young Hoku.

Speaker 3 (28:20):
So I just looked it up. It's a young Way
that's how.

Speaker 2 (28:23):
Yeah, I was afraid of this, see thank you, because
I knew I was going to screech. Looks like young
hoe is what does it does?

Speaker 3 (28:30):
Any announcers have been having a hard time with it too.

Speaker 2 (28:33):
I'd like to apologize for not knowing that, because as
soon as I said it, I'm like, I know I'm
not right, there's no way. But then again, so this
dude last night, he's a field goal kicker. He went
to kick the field goal, but he missed the like
he hit the ground in front of the like maybe
I don't know, six inches in front of the ball.

(28:54):
I don't know how this happens exactly, but like he
didn't whiff. I mean he he kicked the ground in
front of him.

Speaker 3 (29:01):
It was real embarrassing.

Speaker 4 (29:02):
And they say he's one of the most like accurate
kickers in the NFL, which I you know, after seeing that,
I didn't believe.

Speaker 2 (29:09):
But young Way Man, Young Way, not what I said, Coop. Yeah,
I mean it's very embarrassing, but like he literally he
kicked the grass in front of the ball. And then
I guess the Patriots, which is your favorite Well, well
one of your favorite teams, Jason, isn't. You're not a
Giants guy.

Speaker 3 (29:26):
No, I'm not. And I like the Patriots.

Speaker 6 (29:27):
No, So I didn't like them because of Tom Brady,
but now I like them because Cardi B got it.

Speaker 2 (29:34):
That understand.

Speaker 3 (29:35):
I'm coming back around.

Speaker 2 (29:36):
Yeah, And I know you're a big young way coop guy.
So this was disappointing for you. Thank you Camlin for
looking it up, because I honestly, I probably I don't
know who this guy is. I probably would have kept
going with that until someone was like, hey, moron, that's
not how you say it.

Speaker 3 (29:50):
But it's not pronounced how it spelled at all. So
I get why that would happen. That's why I looked
it up.

Speaker 2 (29:55):
I was like, oh, I also feel pretty confident it
is not what I said it was, just who knows.
Netflix users are no longer going to be able to
cast shows from their phones to their TVs in most cases,
as the company has quietly ended support for the feature.
That means that you would have to use a Netflix
app on your TV or rely on your remote for

(30:15):
playback controls. The change was first spotted by Android authority
and quickly drew criticism. I guess they Netflix says no
one uses that feature. I use that feature all the time,
so I don't know, but I would assume that means
the iPad as well. So like if you're watching something
on your phone or your iPad, then you clicked the
little thing and make it go on your TV. I
guess they don't want you to do that anymore. I've

(30:37):
noticed that there's also a lot of the streaming apps
won't let you do it, Like if you're watching ESPN
and you want to cast it to the TV, like
at a tailgate or something. I've noticed they don't want
you to do that, or they'll take that feature away,
depending on how you're doing it. I guess it's because
they don't want you displaying the game for a bunch
of people and then they don't get paid for that.

Speaker 3 (30:55):
Oh, this is ridiculous.

Speaker 5 (30:57):
You already keep charging and go up in your price.
Now you want to tell me how to use the app?
Like okay, And that's what somebody says. What do I experienced?

Speaker 3 (31:06):
In other words, I can't use Netflix how I wants
to know too much?

Speaker 2 (31:13):
Right right between this and young way, I mean, I'm
just and and the TSA fees. It's crazy. The Oxford
University Press is crowned. This is another person, another group
telling us what the word of the year is. It's
actually two words. Rage bait is their twenty twenty five
word of the year, and not to how much online
content this year has been crafted to deliberately make people angry.

(31:34):
That sounds like our text line. Some days, the term
refers to post design to spark outrage so that users click, argue,
and share. Rage bait is their word of the year. Yes,
it seems to be a thing. It's like, what, you know,
what what can I possibly say to It doesn't matter
what the post is. What what can I put in
here that's going to be derogatory or mean or angry

(31:57):
or anything just to make people mad? There's always one.
It doesn't matter, you know. I haven't looked at the
post yesterday about little Fred, the dog that you guys
donated to and named after me, which was for my birthday,
which was extremely kind. I'm sure someone in there is like,
I don't know why it wasn't a bird, you know,
I don't know why. I don't know why you guys
don't We never do spiders. You know, you only hate spiders.

(32:20):
And there's always somebody who has to get in there
and say something negative. How about not? What else do
I have for you guys today? Oh, and ring cameras
finally are ruining everything. But a family in Middleburg, Florida,
slammed door Dash this week after their ring camera captured
a driver mishandling their orders. So this dude had a

(32:41):
container of boneless wings. He dropped it. One of the wings,
I guess came out of the container. What did he do?
What did anybody would do? Picked it up, put it
back in, licked his fingers, wiped the floor with his foot,
drove away. The mom was shaken in which she saw
we say that, I mean, that seems dramatic, but I'm

(33:04):
calling it disgusting. She said. If someone can't deliver food
carefully and hygienically, maybe they shouldn't be delivering at all.
Door Dashes responded by calling the act well below the
level of service that we aim to provide, saying the
delivery violates their standards and they've started in investigation and
issued a warning to the driver. Yeah, we would never
You never would have known if not for the ring camera,

(33:25):
all the things now that you can't do because of
the ring camera. But that's pretty disgusting. And Jason was
a former is a former doordask driver. Oh yeah, and
I know, I know you would have told on yourself
because you're a rule follower, so you would have knocked
on the dooransaid.

Speaker 6 (33:36):
I dropped this, oh one hundred percent. And also like PSA,
you're supposed to have a bag. If your dasher does
not have your food in a bag as they're delivering it,
it's against policy. Okay, Like I always make sure i'm
not a little bag and it's zipped up, and then
as I'm walking up you unzipping You're like.

Speaker 3 (33:52):
Here's your food.

Speaker 2 (33:53):
Oh that's interesting.

Speaker 3 (33:54):
Yeah, I don't feel like I always get that. You know,
it's an epidemic right now, it does not happen. You're
eating your button bringing me my food.

Speaker 2 (34:03):
That's actually really interesting because you're right, Caitlin, I don't.
So you're saying that the bag in the bag. I
know they seal the bags now for the most part,
but you're saying that if I get a door dash,
it needs to come out of that red thing.

Speaker 6 (34:13):
Yeah, like you should be carrying your own and that
heat is supposed to keep it warm or whatever too.

Speaker 3 (34:17):
I'm gonna say you're against policy. You're arrested.

Speaker 2 (34:21):
Okay, So they're not supposed to just hand me chicken
McNugget chicken mcnugga out of their pocket.

Speaker 3 (34:26):
They just baby burdened to me usually only.

Speaker 2 (34:29):
Yeah, I opened my mouth and they throw it. It's
kind of a cool thing for extra tips. You know,
that's an additional feed. I see, all right. It's National
Day of Giving today, Giving Tuesday, National Mutt Day, and
National Special Education Day today as well.

Speaker 1 (34:43):
Kallen's entertainment report.

Speaker 4 (34:45):
Is on the Fresh shel Diddy fired off a blunt
public warning ahead of today's premiere of Sean Combe's The Reckoning,
calling the Netflix docuseries a shameful hit piece. And yes,
this is the one that is produced by Paulina's favorite producer,
Curtis Jackson aka fifty cent So. According to a statement
from Ditty's team, the show uses what they describe as

(35:07):
stolen footage that was never authorized for release, including intimate
clips and private moments, material that Diddy says he's been
collecting for decades with plans to tell his own story
on his own terms. They argue it's not just irresponsible,
it's fundamentally unfair and illegal.

Speaker 3 (35:24):
They also take aim.

Speaker 4 (35:25):
At the fact that the project is being produced by
fifty who clearly has not liked Diddy for a long time.

Speaker 3 (35:31):
I mean, he makes that very clear.

Speaker 4 (35:33):
Now as for Ditty, he says that he's so outspoken
about or I'm sorry, excuse me, fifty cent. He says
he's so out spoken about Ditty, and he's doing this
docuseries because he feels like if he didn't, people would
think that the entire like hip hop community was cool.

Speaker 3 (35:48):
With what happened with Ditty. I don't know, that's what
he said.

Speaker 4 (35:52):
On the other side, Netflix and the docuseries director Alexandria
Stapleton insists that they got the footage legally have secured
the rights. It aims to chronicle both Diddy's rise to
fame and the controversial allegations and criminal case that derailed him. Now,
Aubrio da did not take the stand in his trial.
But Jason, we were wondering, Remember she said she was

(36:12):
working on something.

Speaker 3 (36:13):
She didn't talk about some stuff she is in this
She is one of the interviews and I cannot wait
to watch it tonight. It's going to be interesting.

Speaker 4 (36:23):
After more than a six year battle, Channing Tatum and
Jenna Dewan have finally nailed down key terms of their
divorce settlement.

Speaker 3 (36:29):
That's a long one.

Speaker 4 (36:30):
Documents show that they signed off on a fifty to
fifty split of each other's pension benefits. That's nice under
a screen Actor's Guild producer's pension plan. I did not
know that existed, but only for the portion earned during
their marriage. So twenty nine to twenty eighteen, So a
long one. But that little nugget of info comes after
a really long battle over profits from Channing's breakout hit franchise,

(36:53):
Magic Mike. Because what happened while they were married, You
know that happened, and that's one of the things that
kind of dragged out there to As for daughter, everly,
they will continue to share custody. And lastly, really quick,
it's officially the holiday season, so you know, in this economy,
I want to tell you how much Kevins McAllister is
famous nineteen ninety two Plaza Hotel stay from Home alone

(37:16):
to Lost in New York would cost if it happened
in twenty twenty five, so Kevin's original bill in nineteen
ninety two, a fancy Plaza Hotel suite plus room service,
snacks and desserts came to two thy, one hundred, one
hundred and nine dollars. But thanks to inflation and the
sneak up luxury pricing at these hotels, that same night

(37:37):
in twenty twenty five would set you back roughly eight thousand,
five hundred.

Speaker 3 (37:40):
And eleven dollars. Goodness.

Speaker 4 (37:42):
Yeah, so the sweet runs like six thousand a night
versus you know, one thousand and nineteen ninety two, so
that would be very crazy.

Speaker 3 (37:52):
He had remember that sixteen scoop Sunday that.

Speaker 2 (37:55):
Was what you can get. I saw it actually, So
this week at the Plaza Hotel on the recams, it's
like three hundred and fifty bucks or something, and it's
the whole thing. They show up and it's got the
get the container for it, and it comes with all
the stuff. But yet sixteen scoops of ice cream and
it's sauces and the whatever. It's yeah, that's what you
get a few for three hundred and fifty.

Speaker 4 (38:15):
Bucks, right, Okay, Well that's not too bad. In the movie,
it used to be eighteen bucks. Now it would cost
you twenty four. But if you're going to the real plaza,
you're going to have to really fork up some serious dough.

your a couple of years ago? Is it the first

(40:35):
time that you actually went on the stage because you're
normally backstaged, you know, handling everything, but then you were
jacked Yeah.

Speaker 3 (40:41):
Well, looking out and see all those people, I was like, oh,

not a normal feeling.

Yeah, but you'll get to witness the ups and downs,
the trials and tribulations backstage, to jingle books, the sweat exactly,
the happiness to set this at seven to fifty five,
you can win. I don't know why I didn't know this,
but the Bears, of course are doing very well and
they won over the weekend. And Ben Johnson now becoming

(41:10):
the coach if you don't know, now becoming very famous
for his locker room speeches and his screaming and yelling
in it, which I gotta be honest with you, pumps
me up, man, Like I love this guy. I feel like,
you guys know, I'm a Dan Campbell guy, and I
like the Lions because I want them to win for Kaylin.
But I love Dan Campbell to coach of the Lions.
I feel like Ben's bringing some of that he should

(41:31):
try in.

Speaker 3 (41:31):
But I think he should keep his shirt on.

Speaker 2 (41:34):
Really, Okay, So that's where I'm going on this. Sorry, well, no, no, no, no,
you didn't. I mean, that wasn't breaking news. You didn't
ruin the story. But I didn't realize that he did
that because the Wiener Circle dared him to do I
didn't know that was why. I thought he was just
so into the moment he ripped his shirt off. What
I didn't know was that today at the Wiener Circle,

(41:56):
starting at eleven o'clock, in a partnership with Rosen's Bakery,
while supply his last you can get a free hot dog.
I guess they're going to donate two thousand poppy seed
buns for the giveaway, which is the equivalent of about
four hundred Ben Johnson's shirts stack from end to end.
On October twenty second, a month after The Winner Circle

(42:17):
hosted its first free hot dog giveaway of twenty twenty five,
thanks to Caleb Williams showing four touchdown passes against the Cowboys.
They announced that they would host a second free hot
dog giveaway under one condition that Ben Johnson went shirtless
after a Bear's win. So I thought he was just
so pumped up that he ripped the shirt up. I
didn't realize that he was doing that in response to
the winner circle, which I kind of love.

Speaker 4 (42:36):
Yeah, he did his big one for the free hot dog,
so I'll allow it. But like, I don't know he's hot.

Speaker 2 (42:42):
I didn't.

Speaker 3 (42:44):
I mean, I don't know. I still like him. I
feel away because he came from the Lions. Maybe that's
clouding it. But he's a little like Skinny, I don't know.
He a lot more like, I don't know, like Chisel
than I thought.

Speaker 2 (42:55):
He Yeah, he had more definition than I would have expected,
but he said he actually acknowledged that. He said it
was spur of the moment. I guess I figured the
sooner the better because I'm not in the weight room
very much anymore, and so I guess his physique is
maybe not improving throughout the season. So he wanted to
make sure he got that end. I mean, you do
it after every show so yeah, no, I mean, I've

(43:17):
been known to rip my shirt off multiple times throughout
the show, which it really just depends. But yeah, it's
fine if you want to take my thing. But as
long as the Bears when I don't really care, because,
as I've said, for many years, I've lived in this
city when the Bears are good, and I've lived in
this city for longer when the Bears are bad, and
it's much more fun when the Bears are good. So
I just didn't know that he was inspired by the

(43:39):
Winner Circle, So I kind of dig that.

Speaker 3 (43:41):
Yeah, that part's cool.

Speaker 3 (44:37):
Hi, Kaitlin, how the hell are you?

Speaker 2 (44:39):
You know I'm hanging in there.

Speaker 12 (44:40):
Man.

Speaker 2 (44:40):
I haven't yelled at anyone yet today. A lot of
people asking me, uh, by a lot, I mean one
person dm me Fred on air on Instagram? Was that
cake that I received for my birthday yesterday from McDonald's.
It did look like a McDonald's cake, but it was not,
in fact a McDonald's cake. And a lot of people
don't know you can get a birthday cake at McDonald's. Really,
I didn't know that that. Oh you didn't. You didn't

(45:03):
know that they have apparently frozen sheep cakes at McDonald's
and you I think they're frozen and you can get them.
You can go to McDonald's and a lot of them
and order a sheet cake and they have them. I
thought that everyone. I thought, we're such big fans of
McDonald's in here. I thought that was a French fun
fact that had already done before.

Speaker 3 (45:23):
No, I had no idea. I'm not a sweets girl.
Have you guys ever had a McDonald's birthday party? Yes, okay, yep,
back in the day. Well, no, my last birthday, did it.
I was gonna say that's what I had.

Speaker 2 (45:35):
I was. I was in the I was in the
ballpit at the time he told me to come.

Speaker 3 (45:38):
I don't know why you so you would have come
down and party. You just stayed up there the whole
time in the ball pit.

Speaker 2 (45:43):
I will say, I only finish the introductions, Hi, Jason,
don't worry about it. Hey, yeah, no, Shelby. Shelley's here
two hundred bucks in the showdown in about twenty minutes.
Stay ago, we'll debate the relationship drama just a second, Bela.
It means here as well.

Speaker 9 (45:57):
I have.

Speaker 2 (45:58):
Considering all the psycho since I have, and germanness and
all the weirdness about me, I'm shocked. I don't know
where the transition took place, because I as a kid,
I guess we all used to crawl around in those ballpits.
But like now, not only would I not get anywhere
near them, I wouldn't well because I'd probably get arrested,
But I also wouldn't let my nieces anywhere near that stuff.

(46:19):
Like you're not getting in there.

Speaker 3 (46:21):
No, I'll never forget.

Speaker 4 (46:22):
I went up to the top of like the plaything,
and my mom kept telling me to get down.

Speaker 3 (46:26):
I was like, hey, you can't get me.

Speaker 4 (46:27):
I'm not coming down. But I was leaning up against
one of the tunnels that has like the windows out
of it. She grabbed my hair so.

Speaker 3 (46:33):
Hard through that thing. She said, get down.

Speaker 2 (46:36):
Oh wow.

Speaker 3 (46:37):
Well I wasn't ready to stop playing. You know, she
dealt with a lot.

Speaker 2 (46:42):
You see, my sister probably would have reasoned like, that's
the difference in parenting now versus and plus and your
mom's a therapist, and so is my sister.

Speaker 3 (46:49):
She wasn't at that time, But yeah, it.

Speaker 2 (46:51):
Would have been I can honestly in our day it
would have been cut down here and grabbed you by
the arm and like Yankee whatever her hair. In this case, now,
it would be a debate. Now you have a choice,
and you can make a choice. Are you choosing to
stay up there or are you choosing to come down
and eat the food that I got for you. You

(47:12):
can make one of two choices. I mean, it's the
whole thing.

Speaker 1 (47:14):
Now.

Speaker 2 (47:14):
It's like parenting these days.

Speaker 3 (47:16):
Gentle parenting. That's how Bella got parented.

Speaker 2 (47:19):
And I think we're all going to still wind it
messed up, so I'm not sure it better.

Speaker 1 (47:22):
Yeah, they talk better than they.

Speaker 2 (47:26):
These are the radio blogs on the Fresh shows for
writing in our diaries, except we stayed them aloud. We
call him blogs Jason's got.

Speaker 6 (47:32):
One go, Thank you, dear blog. So I had a
very humbling experience yesterday. I went to the good old
fashioned Wally World Walmart. I had to pick up some
stuff yesterday, and I walk in when there's like a
display shelf and I'm behind this older gentleman who was
pushing a cart and we both were turning the same corner.

(47:53):
So as he was training the corner, he nicked to
the merchandise that was on the shelf and a board
game fell on the ground, and it was like sorry
or trouble or whatever, right, and then he just kept walking.

Speaker 3 (48:04):
So I was like, okay, well maybe a you don't
know you did it? Be you don't care.

Speaker 6 (48:07):
I don't know, but of course me being like everywhere
I go I have to feel like I work there.
So I'm like, let me pick this up for him, right.
I'm like I don't want there just be this game
on the floor, right, So I get down. I'm a
bad knee, right, and I pick up the board game.
Now as I'm trying to restock it back on the shelf,
they all start avalanching on me. Okay, like the shelf

(48:32):
was like hilted, weird, so like i'd put one up
five wood fall like I was, and I'm just like
they're falling all around me. I'm trying to pick them up,
and then the man who I guess just stocked the shelf.

Speaker 3 (48:45):
Walks over to me and is like, he's like, can
I help you? Are you already breaking my display? And
I was like, oh wow.

Speaker 6 (48:52):
I was like I I didn't do it, like someone
knocked it off and I picked it up, and he's
just looking at me like I know you're lying, and
I'm like I'm not lying, like I did this, and
he goes he gives me the just leave it, just
it and I'm like, damn, I'm so sorry. So then
as I go to get up off my bad knee.
I put my hand on the shelf more fall off

(49:13):
because now I'm tilting the shelf.

Speaker 3 (49:14):
To get up, and I just had to walk away.

Speaker 6 (49:17):
And I can't stop thinking about it, because what does
this man think about me?

Speaker 8 (49:20):
Now?

Speaker 6 (49:21):
He thinks I trashed his display that he probably works
so hard to make so nice and pretty for.

Speaker 3 (49:26):
The holiday season.

Speaker 2 (49:30):
To help I know.

Speaker 6 (49:31):
And now I'm like, oh man, I'm so sorry to
this man who works at Walmart.

Speaker 7 (49:35):
And it mean it.

Speaker 3 (49:37):
You should have knocked him all down, you know, you know.

Speaker 1 (49:45):
You don't really work for it.

Speaker 3 (49:47):
He looks like trash anyway. I only did it wrong,
That's what I'm falling.

Speaker 2 (49:53):
Yeah, you worked in retail. I worked in retail. Who
else worked in retail?

Speaker 10 (49:58):
I did?

Speaker 2 (50:00):
Guys? Can you relate to like the way that everything
had to be full? Like I worked in clothing retail.
I worked in a few different retail, but everything had
to be folded a certain way, and like the display
had to be sort of way. So I got to
the point, like towards the end of the night where
I would like mean mug people who'd come into the
store that I already straightened out, and it would like

(50:20):
I'd like follow them around and me I mean, like,
this is terrible. It's a terrible experience for these customers.
But I would follow them around and mean mug them,
and if they went to touch something, I'd be like, no, no, no,
you know what, allow me because I could get it
off the shelf without screwing up the whole display. And
to this day, if I go to and I don't
know if this annoys people in like you know, North
shim or whatever, but to this day, if I go
to a place and there's a stack of clothes and

(50:41):
someone's helping me, I'll be like, well, you get it,
because I know that you can get it without me
screwing this whole thing up, which means that you're gonna
have to refold the whole thing or you know whatever,
because you know, people don't care. They'll go in there.
If if you ever worked in retail, if you never,
if you don't know the pain of having to refold
a whole stack of clothing because somebody just grabbed, then
you don't understand or care. But people will just they'll

(51:03):
just trash it, man, And then you got to do
the whole thing again.

Speaker 3 (51:06):
Yeah, that was frustrating or right before closing when they
came in you know.

Speaker 2 (51:10):
Oh yeah, I'd follow people if it was like, you know,
we closed it eight and it was seven forty five,
like do not touch it, like don't like if you
want to leave, Like it's also fine if you don't
buy anything and just go home, like go home to
your family. There was the same way at Blockbuster too.
It's like we'd straighten the whole store and then somebody
would come in and like just start and say, oh,
I got to do it, and you're supposed to do

(51:31):
it when the store closes for that reason, but no,
we wanted to leave, you know, so we so we'd
follow people around and stare at him, give them mad looks.
It's a miracle they didn't have like the same kind
of you know, Google reviews and things that they have now,
because I would have gotten fired instantly. Yeah, they had
secret shoppers back in the day. It would come in
and like shop. I think they still do this, but

(51:52):
they would come in and shop the store. But they
were so obvious, you know. They'd come in and they
would ask questions that nobody else would ask, like, you know,
excuse me, Fred, can you tell me about the buy one,
get one free special that's available now through November. You know,
it's like, yes, I can. I'd be more than happy
to help explain that to. You know, I don't know.

(52:12):
They weren't they weren't slick, you know, or they some
of them would even come in with their little checklist
and it's like, really, thank you, you know, and of
course they got exceptional service. Because I think we're writing
it all down. But yes, the pain chasing, the pain of.

Speaker 1 (52:27):
The show is on. It's stay or go all.

Speaker 2 (52:33):
Right, Hi Becca, good morning, Welcome to the program. Hello,
Hi Becca, what's going on? This is a complicated one
here because and I don't know that I have a
little gist in front of me, and what's going on.
I want you to tell everyone the story, but I
I don't know. I people are gonna like my opinion
on this. But but what's going on with you? And

(52:53):
this is your boyfriend who you reconnected with, right, Yeah, we.

Speaker 7 (52:57):
Took we took a break a few years ago, but
we ended up reconciling and getting pregnant with our son
and we've been together ever since.

Speaker 2 (53:10):
Well congratulations, by the way, I mean, that's exciting to
have a kid and whatever. No, I don't want to
interrupt you, but that's the good news. Congratulations to you.

Speaker 7 (53:17):
Oh, thank you.

Speaker 2 (53:18):
Yeah yeah.

Speaker 1 (53:19):
Yeah.

Speaker 7 (53:21):
But recently, my boyfriend came to me and shared that
he wants to get a paternity test, which totally shook
me to my core because he said that he and
his family have concerns over the fact that our baby

(53:42):
looks nothing like him because my boyfriend has he has
like dark eyes, dark hair, dark complexion, and he's feeling
insecure about having a paler, you know, blonde, blue eyed son,
and he feels like people always scare and that friends
and family are like talking about it. But it's never

(54:07):
been a question in my mind.

Speaker 2 (54:09):
Well, first of all, that's got to feel good that
my family and I've been talking about this about how
our kid looks nothing like me and how the mother
might be a little little hooche I mean, you know
what I mean, Like, that's that feels great that you
know that conversation has taken place.

Speaker 7 (54:25):
Oh, it was horrible, It was horrible. I felt terrible
when he brought it up. It's never been a question
in my mind, obviously, and you know, he's never said
anything like this before. When but when he brought it up,
you know, he pointed out that we were on a

(54:45):
break back then before I got pregnant, and now he's
wondering if maybe the baby.

Speaker 10 (54:50):
Is someone else's.

Speaker 7 (54:52):
I know the baby is his. I'm obviously confident in that.
But you know, the baby looks like me. You know,
sometimes kids looked more like one parent than the other.

Speaker 2 (55:06):
How long was this a break before you guys, like
when you guys were apart before you got pregnant. Was
it months? Was it years? I mean, I don't know,
it was.

Speaker 10 (55:16):
Just a couple of months.

Speaker 2 (55:18):
Did you get with anybody else during that time? I
mean again, I'm not suggesting that you did anything wrong here, because,
by the way, if you were on a break and
you did get with someone else and you got pregnant
like that, you can do that. You weren't together. It
wasn't like you cheated. I'm just curious if that's even
a remote possibility.

Speaker 7 (55:36):
Yeah, that's a fair question. But honestly, no, like absolutely not.
I was using that break to you know, focus on
myself and like making sure I was, you know, doing
what I wanted to be doing. And so no, there
was no one else in the picture. That's what's crazy.

Speaker 2 (55:53):
Well, I want to know what every one of the
room thinks, of course, but you guys at home as well,
eight five five five three five can context the same number.
What I might be an unpopular opinion. I don't think
you necessarily. I don't think you owe him anything except you.
I feel like in Staergo the theme is pretty similar,
and it has to do with trust, and it's people
who are to get Usually it has something to do

(56:13):
with people who were together who don't believe one another
for whatever reason. And then I wonder, like, well, why
are you together if you don't believe what the other
person's saying. But I think you could very easily put
this to rest. You don't owe him this, But I mean,
there's a scientific proven way to determine that it is
in fact his, that there was no overlap, that there
was no indiscretion, and then you never discuss this again,

(56:35):
and if it ever comes up, it's like, dude, we
already did this. I say, just go get the paternity
test proved to him, because you know for a fact
that it's his. Prove to him that it's his. This
is over and it's never discussed again. Now if you
want to go get into the fact that he doesn't
trust you, that's another thing. But I mean, I guess
it's possible that you could have been impregnated by someone
else because you weren't together, So why not just go

(56:57):
do it and then we're done preach? Okay, so more
people know.

Speaker 3 (57:01):
I guess, brother, I'm right there with you.

Speaker 2 (57:03):
I thought that was gonna be an unpopular opinion because
I'm I suppose you're giving in to his insecurity, which
you don't have to do. But I guess this is
again you know the answer, So just go do it
and this is over.

Speaker 4 (57:16):
We're done with that, And then you think she should
stay with him after that, like I would take the
test and leave if anything, or I'm not taking the
test unless I'm legally required to if I know that
that's my kid.

Speaker 3 (57:29):
And you guys are talking about this in that way.

Speaker 2 (57:31):
Wow, I guess for me though, Kaylin, it's like they
weren't together and so it's not necessity. It's an insecurity
and and she she told him that it his, and
she told him she wasn't with anyone else. And if
this relationship is going to go on for years and
years and years, then at some point you're going to
have to believe the things had come out of her mouth.
But they were not together. Now this is it would
be very different from me if they're if they were

(57:53):
married or in a relationship of partnership and they didn't
break up, and then all of a sudden, they've been
together the whole time, all of a sudden he comes
out and goes, you know what, I think, maybe you
cheated on me. That would be one thing, but it's
not unfeasible or infeasible, whatever the word is. It's not
impossible that during the time they were together that she
had a one off hookup. So I guess this is
just an easy thing to put to rest.

Speaker 4 (58:13):
Yeah, but she's saying she didn't and I believe her,
and I think she should leave him.

Speaker 3 (58:18):
And I think if you take that test, fine, that's
up to you, But I think.

Speaker 2 (58:21):
Go, that's my OPINEK, where are you coming from.

Speaker 5 (58:24):
I would absolutely take the test just to shut everybody up,
And then it's up to you. It's your prerogative if
you want to stay or go. But at the end
of the day, like he wants, if you're not sure
about this being your kid, let me let me shut
you up and your family and your mama and everybody else.
Let's put it all to rest. Let's put it on
a table, and then once I take the test. Now
you really don't hate me because I'm a throw it
in your face every day, but you didn't.

Speaker 3 (58:45):
Believe me, but rest of your life, for the rest
of your life.

Speaker 5 (58:48):
But I do think like you, he's not sure and
that's so you can't especially if the relationship hasn't been consistent.
He's not wrong for having a want in and know
the truth. Like that's what tests are here for.

Speaker 2 (59:00):
The Yeah, And Caitlyn's point is, well, she told him
the truth because they're in a trusting relationship. I just
don't know. Well, it's you're right, But there are scenarios
where I would say this is outrageous and and and
and she'd be feeding into his insecurity. And there are
other situations where I say, let's just check the box
because and then we can deal with it after that.
But like, let's check the box. Becca, What does it

(59:23):
make you feel when I say just go do it
and then this is over.

Speaker 7 (59:28):
I mean, I've definitely thought about all of these options.
And yeah, I feel like you know, if I go
do the test like it is going to be unfortunately
kind of spiteful on my behalf, Like y'all are saying like,
I don't think I I don't think that I'm the

(59:49):
kind of person that would be like, okay, I'll do
it like I would very much be like, there you
want to prove period?

Speaker 2 (59:56):
Yeah no, I can understand that I can't refrigeration.

Speaker 3 (59:59):
Yeah yeah, make it really weird.

Speaker 2 (01:00:01):
And then I might post it on social media and
the tech his whole family. I'll be like, oh, you
guys talking about me behind my back. Check it out.

Speaker 13 (01:00:07):
I'm posting everybody knows I make them T shirts. Oh yeah,
let me take some phone calls on this, Becca. I
want to see people at home have to say a
bunch of texts about this too. But thank you for sharing.
I wish you the best. I hope it works out.
Maybe let us know what you decide to do. Thank you,
have a good day.

Speaker 3 (01:00:28):
What the test say? Yeah, and I'm curious, Well.

Speaker 2 (01:00:31):
Yeah, if we don't hear from her, then I think
you're curious.

Speaker 8 (01:00:35):
What No, I'm curious and maybe a silly question, but like,
let's just say she does end up leaving the relationship,
but she files for child support where there's still have
to be a test done for that.

Speaker 5 (01:00:45):
So the test is coming either way most times for
child support. Absolutely, Okay, got it. So, I mean that's
what I learned on Judge mat I was going to.

Speaker 2 (01:00:51):
Say, you know, that's a record. I mean, that's that's
that's a real legal process.

Speaker 3 (01:00:57):
So I know, Yeah, so you're right then, Fred, like,
just knock it out, now, just do it now. I wouldn't.

Speaker 2 (01:01:01):
And I mean because she knows. I mean, if she's
absolutely certain, if she wasn't with anyone else, it's like,
this isn't, this isn't. This is a no brainer one argument,
you know what I mean, Like you're you know, the answer,
the easiest test you'll ever take. But would you stay
or would you go? How could you stay after that?

Speaker 3 (01:01:16):
That's true?

Speaker 5 (01:01:17):
Well, the thing is I know that we were on
a break, so I would give him the grace of
he doesn't know what I was up to, honestly, and
I don't know, but he was.

Speaker 3 (01:01:26):
Yeah, but people lie every day to my partner. I
don't know. I don't know this lady.

Speaker 5 (01:01:34):
Know that if there's a question and it's a child involved,
I wouldn't want my child to grow up with his
other side of the family, always having this lingering question
when I could have easily put it to rest if
I knew one hundred percent, but don't see.

Speaker 2 (01:01:48):
Yeah, yeah, I mean that's I guess that's what you
have to decide next. But if I know the answer
to the question, and it's a debate, I you know,
you know me, I'm winning the argument. But you know
what I'm saying. If I know I'm right, like, then
we're going to prove that because espially when it comes
to my integrity and your family, that's another thing. Why

(01:02:09):
does the whole family not believe her either?

Speaker 10 (01:02:11):
That?

Speaker 3 (01:02:11):
I hate that.

Speaker 2 (01:02:12):
That's messed up. Francesca, Hi, Hi, Hey, good morning. So
you just heard it. I'll recap it quickly if you
didn't hear. But this woman was with a man. They
went on a few months break, they got back together,
she got pregnant, they have a kid. He doesn't think
the kid looks like him. His family apparently agrees with him,
and he wants a paternity test, even though she says

(01:02:34):
it's yours. I didn't get with anyone else. What would
what do you think?

Speaker 10 (01:02:39):
So personally, I would go.

Speaker 12 (01:02:41):
I'm a nurse and I studied genemics, and I think
that like kids can come out looking all kinds of ways,
it doesn't always have to be a mix of both parents.
And to be honest, I don't know that this is
a personal opinion, but I never want to be with
anyone who'd even remotely questioned.

Speaker 10 (01:02:55):
Me like that. And that's just like more of a
deep rooted issue.

Speaker 12 (01:02:58):
So I think she would be someone would be lucky
to have her and never question her, and I think
she should go.

Speaker 2 (01:03:05):
Yeah, yeah, I did. I would feel much more strongly
against the test if if they hadn't taken a break,
because it's like, dude, okay, now you're just insecure. You
don't trust me, like forgets you. Man, that's that's a
terrible thing, right, You're you're accusing me of of cheating
on you. Now, she she was in her right to
sleep with another man if she wanted to while they

(01:03:26):
were not together. So I think it's that gray area
that makes me think, well, let's just get this out
of the way. But thank you for calling it, for
listening and being part of the thirteen. Have a good day.
Thank you Glad you called. I guess I thought that
my opinion would be a little less popular because I'm
essentially leaning into his insecurity and his family, and I
don't like the way this went down, But it's just
it's if she's sure, it's such an easy thing to do. Hey, Lindsay, Lindsay,

(01:03:53):
good morning.

Speaker 9 (01:03:54):
Hi.

Speaker 10 (01:03:54):
Hi.

Speaker 2 (01:03:55):
Do you actually went through this, this exact thing?

Speaker 1 (01:03:58):
This?

Speaker 13 (01:03:59):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (01:03:59):
Pretty much.

Speaker 7 (01:03:59):
I was dating.

Speaker 14 (01:04:02):
The father of my daughter when I was I don't know,
in my twenties. We broke up, got back together after
being at a break, ended up getting pregnant, and then
his father was the instigator of like, you guys are
on a break, how do you know it's yours? Like
this little girl's not allowed in my home.

Speaker 3 (01:04:21):
She's not allowed.

Speaker 10 (01:04:23):
It was awful.

Speaker 14 (01:04:24):
Yeah, So I was like, you know what, if that's
what you want to do, then bring it home and
go ahead. Swab your eighteen month old daughter's mouth and
find it out. Go ahead and do it so it
comes home with it. Can't bring himself to do it
because he knew that it was her or his the
whole time. So we ended up staying together, had a
second child, and then ended up getting divorced, and.

Speaker 7 (01:04:46):
It was the best decision that I could ever have done.

Speaker 3 (01:04:51):
I let both children be.

Speaker 14 (01:04:53):
A part of his family to an extent, but it's awful.
It's just a constant thing that always comes up, and
it's so un fair. And if that's the kind of
like they don't trust you, that that never goes away
and it's always going.

Speaker 7 (01:05:06):
To be an issue.

Speaker 2 (01:05:07):
Yeah, Lindsay, I'm sorry you went through that, but I
appreciate you. Sharon, have a good day.

Speaker 7 (01:05:11):
Yeah you too.

Speaker 1 (01:05:12):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:05:13):
I gotta say, though, like if I this might this
is probably also not popular, but if I were dating someone,
I took a break and I hooked up with someone
else during the break, and I knew that I wasn't
bringing in any kind of like anything from that, Like
there no, there was no repercussion, like I don't know,
I didn't get an stay right exactly like that, nothing
was oozing or anything. I didn't need any kind of

(01:05:34):
solve or ointments or whatever. I'm not suggesting that I
would lie, but I'm not sure that I would be
forthright with that information. Now she told us she didn't
do it. I believe her, but I also can see
a world where I would not ask questions or want
to know the answers about what happened, because let's face it,
when people take breaks, it's usually to explore something like this,

(01:05:58):
you know what I mean, Like it tends to happen.
So I don't again like this is just an easy
slam dunk. She didn't do it, get the thing and whatever.
But I guess there's a part of me that understands
his concern now as far as getting the whole family
involved behind your back, I hate that. But I don't know.
Breaks are just synonymous with shenanigans and put that on

(01:06:22):
I just I just don't know yets.

Speaker 3 (01:06:24):
Dot com are synonymous with shenanigans.

Speaker 2 (01:06:27):
I just I'm not saying that I would lie to someone,
because I don't condone lying, but I wouldn't be in
a big hurry to tell you about the stuff I
did and we weren't together, because it doesn't matter anymore
because we're back together, and I think it's only going
to cause problems moving forward. Ricky, how you doing, Good morning?

Speaker 1 (01:06:47):
Good morning?

Speaker 7 (01:06:47):
How are you guys doing?

Speaker 10 (01:06:48):
Hey man, stare Go, what do you think I think
you should say?

Speaker 7 (01:06:52):
First of all, she said her boyfriend was darker.

Speaker 2 (01:06:57):
They were on a break.

Speaker 15 (01:06:58):
I mean there's a lot of things question there, so
I think she.

Speaker 7 (01:07:01):
Should give him the paternity to firm that it is
and Stennial.

Speaker 2 (01:07:07):
Yeah, yeah, it could be that simple. Thank you, Ricky,
you have a good day, man, Thank you. Yeah, we
all we all seem everyone seems to agreed. Take the test.
But it's a matter of then what do you do?

Speaker 10 (01:07:17):
You know?

Speaker 2 (01:07:17):
Do you stay with him, do you do you have
some understanding for his concern or do you say no,
forget you man? Hey, Susie, Hi, Hi, good morning, welcome,
Thanks for listening.

Speaker 15 (01:07:27):
Stare Go, she should definitely go. If they're not married
and he already has trusted you, she needs to take
the test, prove them wrong and then get out.

Speaker 2 (01:07:40):
Yeah. That's the part I'm unsure about is do we
do we accept? Do we just say okay, I get
it kinda I'm gonna give you some grace on this
just based on the definition of a break or am
I that is that is this egregious enough that I
can't forgive you for this? You should take my word
for it and that's the end of it. That's the
hard part of this, I think. And you're saying, uh,

(01:08:01):
you're saying he should trust her or she should go
and that's it.

Speaker 15 (01:08:06):
I think he should trust her if she says that
it's that it's his, something like the fraternity of a
child is definitely not something you want to mess around
with or lie about. And if she is lying, which
I don't, it doesn't seem like she is, then that's
one thing. But if she's positive that it couldn't be
anybody else's but his, then I think she needs to

(01:08:30):
maybe second guest where she's going.

Speaker 10 (01:08:32):
To be, especially because the family's involved.

Speaker 1 (01:08:34):
Like when you're.

Speaker 15 (01:08:38):
Attached to their family too, and not having the trust
of anybody like that's just not a good start.

Speaker 2 (01:08:45):
Everyone thinks you're.

Speaker 1 (01:08:46):
A little harlot.

Speaker 2 (01:08:47):
The whole family thinks you are like a man.

Speaker 7 (01:08:51):
Letter on you.

Speaker 2 (01:08:52):
I can't stand that either way. Yeah, you're own. Sorry,
go ahead, Oh I'm sorry.

Speaker 15 (01:08:58):
My oldest son looks identically like me, and my husband
coaches many of his sports teams, and everyone is always
asking him which is his kid, And when they pointed
out it's exactly like this woman, it's he looks like me,
blue eyes, blonde hair, and my husband has dark eyes
and dark hair. So I was like, oh, hey, of
yours thesp is he acts like my husband.

Speaker 1 (01:09:20):
Now there you go.

Speaker 2 (01:09:23):
Then thank you, Susie, have a good day.

Speaker 10 (01:09:26):
Thanks you too.

Speaker 2 (01:09:27):
Yeah. Anytime, it's like and by the way, my you're
in an argument and there's a debate in a relationship,
and it's like, well, my family said, it's all great, great, great.
So you went and told him you were inside of
the story and and you've all been talking about it
without doing anything. That's cool. Yeah, that's I hate that.
The entertainment reportant showed is Shelley two hundred bucks in

Meg Stallion, Okay, hold on, Meg the Stallions. The truth
is that Paulina just said something to me off the
air that was so wild that I cannot repeat and.

Speaker 3 (01:10:56):
I cannot process it, and I am malfunctioning. So let's talk.

Speaker 4 (01:11:00):
Meg the Stallion. I know her name, okay. She scored
a legal win in Miami after a jury ruled that
blogger Mulagro Grahams defamed her. Megan had accused this blogger
of spreading lies, harassing her online, and sharing an AI
generated deep fake video that's like the porn video that's AI,
falsely claiming Meg was in it. After the short trial

(01:11:21):
of two days of deliberations, jurors found the blogger liable
for defamation and emotional distress. Meg got fifty nine thousand
in damages, far less than the millions she initially sought,
but it's still a clear victory. And leaving the courthouse,
she kept it simple, saying, I'm just happy and remember
this was the trial that it was tough for her,

(01:11:42):
super emotional and she had to go through all that
intense therapy over stuff that she says that this blogger
did that affected her. And just time for one more

Welcome to the program. How are you?

Speaker 9 (01:19:53):
Oh man, I'm just super frustrated. I thought I went
on a really awesome date last week, and she's just
not She's just not getting back to me.

Speaker 2 (01:20:04):
She's a ghosting.

Speaker 9 (01:20:05):
I don't know what's going on.

Speaker 2 (01:20:06):
All right, Well that's frustrating, So why don't you kind
of fill us in? How did you meet? Tell us
about any dates you've been on and then where things
are now.

Speaker 9 (01:20:13):
Yeah, I mean we met on Bumble, you know, and
we went out and after you know, talking for texting
or whatever for a week on Bumble, we decided to
go out and we just got drinks.

Speaker 10 (01:20:25):
And I thought it was it was super fun.

Speaker 9 (01:20:28):
I thought it was just really you know, talked, had
good conversation that we learnt any walls.

Speaker 10 (01:20:33):
Or anything, you know, Like I thought I had some
good signs.

Speaker 2 (01:20:36):
But because you can sometimes tell when you're out with
somebody if you're conversing and the conversations labored, or you know,
if you go if you bring up a topic that's
gets weird or awkward or whatever, but you're saying like
everything was just kind of natural and flowing, and that's
usually a good sign.

Speaker 10 (01:20:52):
Yeah, yeah, that's what I thought.

Speaker 2 (01:20:54):
Okay, all right, well let's see if we can figure
out what's going on. We're gonna call this woman, Sophie.
You'll be on the phone at the same time. I
want you to jump in at some point, but we're
gonna ask some questions before that and see if we
can figure out what's going on. And the hope, as
always is that there's something going on here. We can
straighten out and then set you up on another date
and pay for that. Sound good, too much?

Speaker 1 (01:21:13):
Hey?

Speaker 2 (01:21:14):
Tim? All right, let's call Sophie. You guys met on
bumble and you went on a date and you thought
the date was amazing, You thought the conversation was good,
you thought the attraction was there. You were into her,
you were excited about this, and yet you've reached out
for another date since then and you have not heard
from her, no response, text, calls, whatever, nothing. Okay, let's

(01:21:35):
call Sophie. Figure this out right now, good luck?

Speaker 7 (01:21:44):
Hello?

Speaker 2 (01:21:45):
Hi is it Sophie. Yes, hey, Sophie, good morning. My
name is Fred. I'm calling from the Fred Show, the
morning radio show, and I have to tell you that
you are on the radio right now, and I would
need your permission to continue with the call. Can we
ch out for a second, would you mind?

Speaker 10 (01:22:00):
Sure?

Speaker 2 (01:22:01):
Well, thank you. You can hang up any time. But
we're calling on behalf of a dude who says he
met you on bumble. His name is Tim. Do you
remember meeting Tim?

Speaker 10 (01:22:09):
Oh? Oh boy, yeah I do. This is a little
on a pocket. What's going on?

Speaker 3 (01:22:16):
Oh wow?

Speaker 2 (01:22:17):
Well, I mean that's fair to say. But he called
us and he told us that you guys have met
on Bumble and went on a date. He thought the
date went great and was excited to see you again,
but says that he hasn't been able to get a
hold of you. We obviously had no trouble. You picked
up in like two rings. So what's going on? Why
haven't you called him back? Why don't you want to
see him again?

Speaker 10 (01:22:37):
Well, I guess things like this are facing point, But
I can go ahead and walk you through one of
the creepiest experiences I think I've ever had.

Speaker 2 (01:22:46):
Wait a minute, so you're saying this date was one
of the creepiest experiences that you've ever had.

Speaker 10 (01:22:50):
The aftermath of the date, Oh definitely.

Speaker 2 (01:22:53):
Okay, Wow, what happened?

Speaker 10 (01:22:55):
Well, I mean, everything was fine when we match on Bumble,
the back and forth, our conversation was really nice, which
is really rare for Bumble. That's kind of like a
watering hole of creatures of the night. So I thought, Okay,
somebody nice and normal, who's having a real conversation with
me the date.

Speaker 2 (01:23:16):
I'm sure the Bumble people appreciate that. By the way,
I'm sure there it's a it's a watering hole for
creatures of the night, just happy, right you bumble five.
I can see it now on a billboard. I think
that's kind of what our show is is a watering
hole for creatures of the night anyway, And I mean
that in the finest way possible and the nicest, kindest way.
So okay, So what happened?

Speaker 10 (01:23:37):
Yeah? Date, super fun. After the date though, that's the
makeout really weird. The day after the date, he asked
for my email and he already had my phone number.
People don't really ask for emails, you know, But okay, sure,
he said he had a surprise for me.

Speaker 9 (01:23:55):
Fine.

Speaker 10 (01:23:56):
I got the email, that's all when it took a
really dark turn. The subject line was I picture a
future with you. Whatever could that possibly mean? So inspite
the email, I kid you not. He had a PowerPoint.
Now what could that power point possibly me? Yes? I
clicked on that PowerPoint and I was absolutely shocked. This

(01:24:19):
guy actually made a power point using AI photos mind
you to show us what our life would be like together.

Speaker 2 (01:24:30):
Stop. So this dude went to like jat GPT and
he typed in like, you know, me and Tim and
Selphie together forever or something, Okay, And then he sent
this to you in a little organized manner. So what
sort of images did he well, no, did he have
AI make of.

Speaker 10 (01:24:48):
The two of you, the entire play by play? Engagement photos?
Oh yeah, oh yeah, wedding photos. I will say he
picked a really high stress for me.

Speaker 2 (01:25:00):
Oh my god.

Speaker 10 (01:25:02):
Yeah, pregnancy oh.

Speaker 2 (01:25:07):
Wow wow? Okay the kids, now you're married with what
you have? Yeah? Boy or girl?

Speaker 14 (01:25:15):
Boys?

Speaker 15 (01:25:15):
Say the girl?

Speaker 10 (01:25:16):
The girl you know, questionable, you know, maybe should late bloomers.
She'll come into it.

Speaker 1 (01:25:21):
Not the kid.

Speaker 2 (01:25:24):
Wow, we're making one of the AI children now that
you would have together. Okay wow. The wedding.

Speaker 10 (01:25:31):
There was a cat, a caligo named Pebble, a cat.

Speaker 2 (01:25:35):
You own a cat now too? In AI world with
this guy who you went on one day with from
Bumble absolutely wow wow wow okay, I mean wait, way
to hate, way to have vision, you know. Let me
say something here. A lot of women complain that guys
don't know what they want. This guy quite clearly knows
what he wants. This is not what we mean, This
is not what we mean. Let me bring Tim into

(01:25:59):
the AI master. I wow, Sam, you didn't mention when
you said the things that she wasn't responding to you.
You didn't mention this fantasy world that you created at
the two of them in a PowerPoint presentation. I mean,
what was the issue with that? What was the issue?
I think there are kind of a lot of issues

(01:26:21):
actually go ahead that you have to ask that is
an issue. I mean, is that normal behavior for you
to create a fantasy world with someone you just met,
including pictures of events that didn't take place. Well, I mean,
it was just like a joke, you know.

Speaker 10 (01:26:36):
I mean, I know we're not married, I know we
don't have kids.

Speaker 9 (01:26:38):
It was just like, you know, hey, like I see
this getting serious, you know, if if you're in It
took a long time though, no no, no chack ebt
and the new program that I had it took like
twenty five minutes.

Speaker 2 (01:26:53):
But I don't I don't know that I would say
to somebody after a first date all that stuff anyway,
not to mention creating the fake pictures of what all
that would look like like. I think a lot of
people would be alarmed if you told them after the
first day that you saw a future you know, having kids,
in buying a cat with them. I think that people
might that might be a little abrasive for people, But
then you you went ahead and took the extra step

(01:27:14):
of creating the images.

Speaker 10 (01:27:18):
I didn't create the images I did.

Speaker 2 (01:27:20):
Well, is a cat really abrasive?

Speaker 9 (01:27:22):
I mean they're pretty pretty pretty?

Speaker 2 (01:27:24):
I thought why. I think it's the purchasing of the
cat combined with the kids who you've named, And yeah,
right right, I think that.

Speaker 9 (01:27:36):
You know, it's kind of like plug and play. You know,
It's like I have, you know, an image of what
I want in my life, and I'm just you know,
getting this person to.

Speaker 2 (01:27:45):
See if they go along with that. And this guy,
you know, sim is just how is that any different
than putting a picture of a Ferrari on your on
your mirror? The man wants to you know, aspire to
have a Ferrari, except this time he's the Ferrari is
Isphi and he made fake images of the children that
they don't have. So I look oriented normal. The man

(01:28:10):
is focused. The man knows what he wants. I uh,
I may be changing my mind about this.

Speaker 1 (01:28:15):
He cuts of.

Speaker 2 (01:28:19):
So many normal things.

Speaker 7 (01:28:21):
What what what I mean?

Speaker 10 (01:28:22):
People gotta you know, they gotta stand out right, Like you.

Speaker 3 (01:28:25):
Don't know her middle name, bro, you just met her.

Speaker 2 (01:28:28):
You don't need that for.

Speaker 3 (01:28:32):
I'm silly. Yeah, AI is out of control.

Speaker 2 (01:28:35):
I would look your your your imagination has taken you know,
kind of gotten the best of you here. And I
think again, I feel like if you communicated these things
to her after a first date, that that in itself
would spook a lot of people because even though you
have good intention, you just met, now you went ahead
and created fake pictures of this. I don't suppose you
have him like in frames in your house or anything, like,

(01:28:56):
you haven't taken it, because that what can you imagine,
like if she went over to his house and like
that side is the picture of Actually, I think I
just did give you.

Speaker 9 (01:29:03):
No, I don't I don't have any I don't have
any friends.

Speaker 2 (01:29:07):
That would be weird. That would you have? Okay, that
would weird? Sophie, you haven't said much. Are you just
frightened her?

Speaker 10 (01:29:15):
I mean, I don't mean it's it's supposed to be cute.

Speaker 3 (01:29:20):
Why are you yelling?

Speaker 10 (01:29:22):
This is not cute. This is a thing that documentaries
murder mysteries on Netflix Forrmadeo.

Speaker 4 (01:29:29):
This is how.

Speaker 2 (01:29:34):
That's good. It's certainly not that. Okay, I'm gonna ask
the questions. Oh no, I think you should totally understand
why no one's murdering anybody. But I think you may
have murdered your chances of going out with her again.
But I have to ask the question. That's what I'm
paid to do. Do you, Sophie, would you like to

(01:29:55):
go out with him again? You know he was a
little he came in a little hot with the a
I imag is of the two.

Speaker 10 (01:30:01):
Of you together and any more AI images If you.

Speaker 2 (01:30:03):
Don't like him, see, he won't send anymore. How about that?

Speaker 10 (01:30:06):
No Agording to jet Chat, whoa, I can't even say it.
According to Chat and GBT, I will not be going
on a second date.

Speaker 2 (01:30:14):
Oh see, she asked, Chat GPT too, and Chat even
chat GPT is like, well this is weird. This is
a weird use of me. That's what chat GEFT said. Okay,
all right, look so it's not going to work out, Tim,
I'm sorry. Look at you sound like a sweet guy.
It was a little aggressive. You Spooketer, so I might
be mindful of that moving forward. But good luck to
you and Sophie. Thanks for answering. Good look to you
as well. Thank you.

Speaker 1 (01:30:38):
It's entertainment report is on the Bread.

Speaker 4 (01:30:40):
Show, a man claiming to have been Will Smith's pal
for nearly four decades, be Lal Salam filed a three
million dollar lawsuit this week accusing Jada Pinkett Smith of
threatening his life. According to the complaint, the alleged confrontation
took place at Will's birthday party back in September of
twenty when Jada and a group of about seven people

(01:31:03):
supposedly surrounded him in a hotel lobby and warned him
that he would quote end up missing or catch a
bullet if he kept telling her personal business.

Speaker 3 (01:31:12):
He claims the threats didn't end there.

Speaker 4 (01:31:13):
Though, He says a member of her entorage followed him
to his car, and that after he refused to help
manage a supposed PR crisis after you know, the infamous
Oscars slap. We didn't talk about it, but that happened,
the threats and harassment escalated even more at this point.
I as far as I've seen Jada or Will, they
have not publicly responded, but the lawsuit marks kind of

(01:31:37):
a dramatic escalation in this saga that's been going on
for a long time. Oprah is facing lots of backlash
over her latest discussion about going no contact with family
members and it's I mean, that's already a conversation that you.

Speaker 3 (01:31:52):
Know, people are going to have heated feelings over.

Speaker 4 (01:31:54):
But she's being accused of inappropriately framing the debate for
her podcast, So she first came off the conversation. She
uploaded I don't know if you guys saw it a
video to her Instagram account for her twenty two and
a half million followers to tease the episode. She said,
around one third of Americans have cut ties with their family,
and that once considered taboo going no contact with your

(01:32:15):
family is now being openly discussed by people of all ages.
People are now redefining what healthy boundaries look like in
family dynamics, and she explained that guests experts would be
talking about adult children who have cut off their parents,
and then parents who have been a strange I don't know,
you know how you become an expert in that area,

(01:32:35):
maybe a therapist or something. But after the episode aired,
viewers and listeners felt she approached this whole debate the
wrong way. Many people questioned why the idea was presented
as a broader trend rather than a personal boundary shaped
by an individual experience. And with this, of course, everybody
had an opinion online. One person wrote, I understand why
people go no contact. I don't understand why Oprah is

(01:32:58):
showcasing it in this way that makes it seem like
a cult.

Speaker 3 (01:33:02):
Another person said, dear Oprah, shut up. You have no
clue about what people really I know I feel her pain.

Speaker 4 (01:33:11):
You have no clue about what people are going through,
and calling no contact a trend is just letting abusers
keep abusing. I've seen a lot of people discuss it
on TikTok as well, and of course it's you know,
it's up to you to do what works. But people
felt like she was kind of like promoting it and
like saying it's okay, rather than talking about why it happens. So,

(01:33:32):
you know, anything you do, everybody's gonna have opinions. And
Leslie Kelsey Ballerini is shutting down all those rumors. After
weeks of online chatter about her breakup with Chase Stokes,
I mean he kind of included us in that. She
posted a message to fans saying she's in a steady
and happy place, which is definitely what I say when
I'm a steady and happy place. And once her personal
life kept private, she stressed that unless someone comes directly

(01:33:55):
from her, something comes from her, it shouldn't be believed.
This comes after, you know, they sparked their reunion buzz
when they were spotted holding hands in Croatia, followed by
Chase suggesting online that he had been blocked. She isn't
addressing any of that directly, just saying she's protecting her piece,
which is a buzzword buzz phrase these days, and keeping

(01:34:15):
her real life offline. But certainly something was going on
because he was like telling us that it wasn't his fault,
and we don't even we didn't even know something was
his fault. And lastly, a really quick giving Tuesday today tonight,
you guys were asking about Fred the puppy. I don't
believe he's on the website yet, but he will be
featured in their Facebook live tonight if you want to
see little Fred, and you can email them now and

(01:34:38):

Little Fred.

Speaker 3 (01:34:48):

I heard a iHeartRadio app.

Speaker 3 (01:34:56):
Who if you want to catch up? You got this man,
I don't think I do.

Speaker 2 (01:35:00):
On you can learn so much. Did you know the
goats have rectangular pupils? Whoa, they're rectangles. Their entire field
of vision is basically panoramic apparently.

Speaker 7 (01:35:23):
Yes, what.

Speaker 4 (01:35:27):
You know?

Speaker 3 (01:35:27):
That's like trippy as how I'm looking right now?

Speaker 1 (01:35:30):
They are?

Speaker 2 (01:35:33):
Do you say I'm lying to you? You don't trust me?
You want a DNA test? Now, what's going on?

Speaker 1 (01:35:37):
Well?

Speaker 4 (01:35:37):
Sometimes when I ask you a question about the fact,
you're like, I don't know, just like appreciate the fact.

Speaker 2 (01:35:42):
So I wanted to look at it myself, right, because
it turns out that I don't know all of these
other type of.

Speaker 1 (01:35:50):
Spread show. Next, this is the Bread Show.

Speaker 2 (01:35:55):

Speaker 2 (01:36:24):
Like we're writing in our diaries, except we say them aloud.
We call them blogs.

Speaker 1 (01:36:28):
Kinky yo.

Speaker 3 (01:36:29):
Go all right, deer blog friends.

Speaker 5 (01:36:33):
I'm at this point in my marriage planning wedding planning
journey where you know, we're considering pre marital counseling. So
a friend of mine hit me up last night. Her
mom is a very well established relationship coach and counselor,
so she reached out. She's like, hey, my mom would
love to give you guys some free sessions.

Speaker 3 (01:36:52):
Just let me know, yeah, if you would.

Speaker 1 (01:36:54):
Like to do it. And I was like, I don't know.

Speaker 5 (01:36:56):
I don't know if I want to do it because
I feel like you getting the counseling, and then some
things can come up and you know, at this point,
I paid the deposit, the.

Speaker 3 (01:37:08):
Decorator is booked, so what are we doing?

Speaker 5 (01:37:14):
Yeah, now you know the wedding is happening, So I
don't know if we want to open up these can
can of worms or do I do it?

Speaker 3 (01:37:22):
And then you know, we fight for our lives for
the next two years until it's time to get married.

Speaker 5 (01:37:26):
I just don't know, And so I put it on
the she like did did Paulina do it? Did Shelley
do it? Would you guys do it if you were
getting married? Like do you think it's a good idea
at this point? Because I don't.

Speaker 2 (01:37:36):
Yeah, Paulina went to GPT. That's all she had to
That's all I have to do.

Speaker 3 (01:37:40):
Girl, use my account.

Speaker 8 (01:37:41):
Honestly, if I could go back and do a couple
of things differently, I would have done that, Yes, because
I'm trying to go to a couple's therapy now, like
we're one.

Speaker 3 (01:37:48):
Foot in, one foot out, like you know what I mean. Me,
I'm in, like let's go.

Speaker 8 (01:37:51):
But it's hard to get Hobby to go to that
and it's it's frustrating, but like I'm working on it.
But I wish we did that because everything becomes an
issue when you're married, and you'll you'll see and I
hate that whole you'll see thing, but no, you really will,
Like this'sh is not being done, Like things hit different
now and we're pretty we're a pretty solid couple and
like we hold each other down, so like we don't really.

Speaker 3 (01:38:11):
Have fights like that.

Speaker 8 (01:38:12):
But our fights, you guys know me, like they're petty,
they're goofy.

Speaker 3 (01:38:16):
And I'm always wondering.

Speaker 8 (01:38:17):
I've always wondered, like if we want to therapy before
or at least talked about these.

Speaker 3 (01:38:21):
Issues, would we be encountering them?

Speaker 2 (01:38:24):
What's his hesitation? Is its cultural? Is it that he
just doesn't think you need it? Is it that he
doesn't he doesn't want to unearth anything? Like what do
you think his reservation is?

Speaker 3 (01:38:33):
I think it's all the above.

Speaker 8 (01:38:34):
I mean, like, yeah, exactly cultural like he's Mexican, and
then culturally.

Speaker 3 (01:38:38):
Speaking, that's not really a thing that bothers me, so
I'm not a fan of that. And then also too,
I think he's.

Speaker 8 (01:38:44):
A big believer of like, you know, mentality and like
you'll just like fighting through things and stuff. And it's like,
I hear you, brother, I'm fighting through my life here
every day. I'm fighting every day here. But I do
feel like having an outside perspective, somebody coming in to
help us resolve issues that keep occurring in our marriage
would be really nice and beneficial.

Speaker 2 (01:39:03):
What is my sister is? Om Starry go ahead? No, no, no,
you go my sister's a therapist, which is so so
that I preface this by saying that she would subscribe
to something like this because it's what she does. But
she and Colin did go to a pre marital counseling
in addition to I think they were in counseling when
they were dating. And at first it was like whoa,
but I think it was I think it was more

(01:39:25):
sort of like almost training and preventative, like to figure
out how to work through stuff to your point, Paulina,
kind of before it elevates into something that's really insurmountable
and then you're married, you know, learning communication styles and
things like that. So I mean, my sister would subscribe
to that because it's what she does. But the people

(01:39:45):
I know who have done it, I think, you know,
have benefited from it. So Kiki, I think, uh yeah,
I think it's a good idea.

Speaker 5 (01:39:51):
Okay, you know, I just I'm working. I don't want
the man to come to his senses, you know. I
want to like, you know, like lock him down first.
I might do Paulina's method of like lock it down first,
and then we can go to Cantl's.

Speaker 3 (01:40:05):
You can't go anywhere, no, But it's like, I don't.

Speaker 5 (01:40:08):
I don't know, because before you know I would, I
was like, yes, you should do pre marital counseling. I
think absolutely, But now that it's me, I'm like, I
don't know. I don't know, and I might find out
I'm the problem. What is your experience with therapy?

Speaker 3 (01:40:20):
Have you ever done it?

Speaker 10 (01:40:21):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (01:40:21):
Individually child, just dealing with grief of losing parents. Yeah,
and it was very successful, was it?

Speaker 7 (01:40:26):
Yes?

Speaker 3 (01:40:26):
Okay, very success.

Speaker 4 (01:40:27):
Because I've never heard it's an interesting fear of unearthing
new problem, Like, I've never heard of couples deal with
that by going through therapy.

Speaker 3 (01:40:34):
I actually have a couple that i'm thinking of that's
married now. It is interesting.

Speaker 4 (01:40:39):
They had a hard time picking a man or a woman,
and they ended up going with a man just because
she felt her husband would be more comfortable with that.

Speaker 3 (01:40:48):
And I thought that was interesting. Interesting. But I've never
heard of new issues coming out in therapy.

Speaker 2 (01:40:53):
But right, I guess I got news for you. If
you think he didn't know the crazy by now right,
you ain't fooling anybody. Okay, he knows exactly what he's
getting into, So I think you're safe. I don't think
there'll be any surprises. You're right. You're right, unless you
got a secret kid like waiting by the phone or whatever,
and then we got DNA testing anthinia. No, that's all.

(01:41:15):
That's a whole different thing.

Are You A Charlotte?

Are You A Charlotte?

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