or my sister would say that is totally developmentally normal
for this stage. Interesting therapist, that is. But like I
didn't need to be justific I didn't need for her
to justify that to me. She'll be like, you know,
Paully's doing this, but that is totally developmentally normal for

(02:17):
this stage. Okay, I don't know. I think that fine
me is what I was about to say. Man, it
was it. It sounds like she's not developmentally normal to me.
That was what I was about to say. Take the
words out of my mouth.

Speaker 5 (02:29):
Nothing that we do is developmentally normal.

Speaker 1 (02:31):

Speaker 1 (03:08):
I think I'm the only one that didn't get to

What was it was like the only moment that I
was working was the time that you all were, you know,
doing shots with Nelly. You had to intro Jackson Wayne.
I was important. I mean obviously there was no way
that he could have gone on without WHOA. I almost
was like, hey, Jackson Wayne, intro yourself. I got to
go meet Nelly like you.

Speaker 7 (03:30):
I did that right.

Speaker 3 (03:31):
I almost not make it to that stage. And when
I got it, there all the finger pointing like you
know that disappointed dad look or whatever, like, yeah, who's
one of our proportions directors here? Who was running the show?

Speaker 5 (03:42):
Back there?

Speaker 3 (03:42):
She pointed her finger and she looked at me and said, yeah,

is Paulina versus.

Speaker 5 (04:07):
What Christmas cards?

Speaker 1 (04:10):
What's your problem with Christmas cards? Okay?

Speaker 3 (04:12):
Yeah, first of all, why are we sending Christmas cards?

Speaker 8 (04:16):
Like?

Speaker 3 (04:16):
Why why are you wasting a stamp on that?

Speaker 1 (04:19):
It is the annual update by your life and a
picture of your family and I get to see you
know how little Timmy's all grown up and he's developmentally,
you know. In line, I get to see that, you know,
maybe and then maybe a little note about you know
how you're wishing me a great holiday, and I get
to hear that, you know, little Timmy, Little Timmy is
you know, he's varsity tennis now doing a great job.

(04:45):
And and I've wanted to know that a whole year.
I've been wondering, did you make the varsity team?

Speaker 4 (04:50):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (04:50):
And you couldn't just ask. You have to wait for
the Christmas card. And there's always isn't always. My mom
sends a little letter with the one that she sends out.
But it's like one year, just be honest, like Christopher,
you know, still has a job and we're shocked, you
know what I mean, Like like like it's always, you know,
he continues to thrive in Chicago in the radio stage.

(05:12):
It's like, no, be like, Noah, it's pretty much let
us down for the most part. It doesn't come around anymore,
you know, to be honest, Yeah, like that would be
that would be good. But what is your problem with
Christmas cards?

Speaker 3 (05:23):
There's a couple of layers to this. So I feel like,
first of all, and this is no shade, no tea.
I just don't know what I'm supposed to do with it,
so when you send it to me, like I don't,
I'm not putting it on my wall, Like I'm not
taking them on the wall, absolutely not.

Speaker 2 (05:35):
But you're supposed to do that, Like, yeah, I do
it my whole childhood, Like you put them all up
like along the wall.

Speaker 5 (05:40):
Or the fireplate, and yeah, and.

Speaker 1 (05:44):
I look at him and say, it's nice to throw
him away. The only one I keep is the one
my sister sends with the little girls. That's the only
one with my nieces. That's the only one that I keep.
The rest of them, even though when my mom's send
up with me on it, I'm like, oh look, it's
me throw it away.

Speaker 3 (05:57):
And I'm sure, like when you put them on the wall,
you still throw them away after unless you keep them.

Speaker 9 (06:00):
That's just clutter.

Speaker 3 (06:01):
I'm sorry, it's clutter like decoration for the Okay, it
might be degradation, but like, I'm not gonna put it
on my wall. I'm sorry, I'm not. Like these are
beautiful photos. But the crazy part is because it's twenty
twenty five, Like I'm gonna see this on Instagram. I'm
gonna see the photo. Shoo, I'm gonna probably see like
how you guys all got ready, we're gonna see the PC.

Speaker 1 (06:17):
That is a good point, actually see it already.

Speaker 3 (06:19):
So like now I haven't mailed to my house. Very thoughtful,
very kind, I will say that. And maybe I'm projecting
because like I don't do these things and I thought
I would as a mom. I'm like, oh yeah, I'm
gonna do all like the Pinterest like whatever Instagram stuff.
I don't do anything. Okay, we're lucky if we get
why don't even have one family photo?

Speaker 1 (06:34):
Are you projecting because you don't because you don't have
pictures to send, and you don't do the cards until
you're feeling like you judged.

Speaker 3 (06:40):
Potentially or something that I think it's a part of it,
but the other party.

Speaker 1 (06:44):
Otherwise, why would you have such an issue with the
Christmas card?

Speaker 3 (06:46):
Well, and then there's another layer to this true, Like
to be honest, I do feel like a lot of
those Christmas cards, you know, are putting on a little show.
You know, everyone got the matching outfits and like the
kids look great, hair slick back, but like we all know, like, okay,
you know he cheated on her last year, he doesn't
want to be with him because X y Z like.

Speaker 1 (07:05):
There's always a story under the family, and like, now
that's the letter i'd like to read. I was I
was cheating on Tim last year, but I decided to
stay with him for now. He's taking those boner pills now,
so you know, things are a little bit better in
that regard.

Speaker 3 (07:19):
But a lot of times people over compensate.

Speaker 7 (07:24):
Oh my bad.

Speaker 3 (07:24):
Yeah, you're not gonna say Tim Jim, But I do
like people over compensate sometimes because like, you know, things
maybe are going great at the old Kasa and him wavered.

Speaker 1 (07:34):
In his sexuality this year. But we think we think
that he said look back on me again, which is
nice holidays man like saying okay, all.

Speaker 3 (07:45):
Right, so you so you think it's all a show,
keep it real, yeah, and.

Speaker 1 (07:49):
That people aren't really that happy, and that they're they're
they're they want to send these pictures out and make
everything look like it's okay.

Speaker 3 (07:55):
I don't know, I want to be like mean and
say everyone's like that, but I do think a lot
of people do that.

Speaker 1 (08:00):
It is kind of a funny tradition, like think about
like who decided I'm going to send a picture of myself.

Speaker 10 (08:05):
You're like, I don't need tell everyone I know about myself.
I am shook because you have a Christmas card. No,
but I thought you, of all people, you would have
a Christmas card.

Speaker 6 (08:16):
Because I was waiting for this moment, I'm like, Okay,
finally I'm engaged. I look like a real adult, you know,
like I can take a picture with Timothy and the
dog and maybe send that out.

Speaker 5 (08:23):
I'm not sending out anything because y'all don't appreciate it.

Speaker 1 (08:26):
And this is why I'm not going to.

Speaker 5 (08:27):
Save the dates. I'm not doing real invitations to the wedding.
It will be virtual. So it's a text because I don't.

Speaker 1 (08:33):
Want to be able to tire yourself. What ten grand?

Speaker 7 (08:35):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (08:36):
How much of the text? Guys?

Speaker 8 (08:37):
Too much?

Speaker 7 (08:37):
A lot?

Speaker 1 (08:38):
Yeah? Wow?

Speaker 5 (08:39):
For you to toss it?

Speaker 1 (08:40):
I get a website invite. I'm getting an invite to
your wedding. Yes you are. Look what you say, I'm
your junk folder. It's true. I mean, it is true.
What am I supposed to do it? I can't keep
every wedding invitation I've ever received, That's true.

Speaker 11 (08:53):
I do.

Speaker 5 (08:54):
I keep it all, but I'm a hoarder.

Speaker 1 (08:55):
What are you doing with all that? What is the purpose?
What what are you gonna do? Like in Tenar's be like,
oh yeah they're divorced now, Like what are you gonna
do with it? I don't understand.

Speaker 6 (09:03):
And like handwritten cards, I hold onto those things. I
don't just toss it.

Speaker 1 (09:07):
Well, it depends who wrote it. Oh my goodness, but
I know, like I have, I want some handwritten cards
from certain people, like I have a couple framed on
my wall, Like it depends who wrote it. Okay, you know,
but yeah, you've never written me a love note, so
I don't have one for any of you, none of
you have actually get no stationary for me for you
to throw it away. Well, but maybe if you send
me one, then you'll be one of the framed ones.
Maybe probably not, but me it's good enough. I used

(09:30):
to send cards to like everybody who advertises with the show,
and I write a little note on them. But the
thing is now I don't even know where to send
him because I don't know who goes to work and
who doesn't. I guess maybe now it's less than it was.
But like it used to be, I had an office
addresses for everybody I send these little notes and then
they thought it was nice, you know, but now I
don't even I don't do it because first of all,
I don't know who's going to get them, and then
I never heard from anybody, like now that I expect

(09:51):
a phone call, but it was like no one was
ever like I got your Christmas card. That was cool.

Speaker 3 (09:55):
So I stopped doing it, thank you, Like what's the point? Wait,
growing up, did you guys do that? I can see
your mom wan in the sun like Christmas photos and.

Speaker 1 (10:02):
Oh yeah, she still does. She still does it, but
now I thinks she does like Valentine's cards because that's cute.
She's decided that she's too busy during the holidays to
do all that, so she sends it later in the year,
which I could argue, now, what have you decided that, like,
you don't, you don't need to You're our card, doesn't
need to come in with sixty others. You want your
own holiday now, So now now it's just she just

(10:23):
a picture of us shows up on Valentine's Day and
we have no competition, so now we own the priority
for you. Yes, yeah, you're right. I don't know anymore.
But with social media, I don't know if it's necessary,
because I can go look and see what you look like.
I don't need the photos of you.

Speaker 2 (10:38):
If it's like a nice like Christmas card, like that
looks like christmasy and beautiful, then yeah that's different. But
I don't need the whole photo and update like you
could just like Merry Christmas.

Speaker 1 (10:48):
Yeah, people sign your name.

Speaker 3 (10:49):
Yeah, their photo updates and it's cute.

Speaker 1 (10:52):
People agree with you. I throw the cards away for sure.
I see everything on social media. I've never heard someone
this isn't this isn't a complete sentence. But I guess
dislike Christmas cards. I think it is what they meant
to say. You send them because you like to get them.
If you don't want them, then you don't send them, Okay,

(11:15):
but I am yeah, yeah you need New York. No, yeah,
I don't know what that means because I I I'm
not waiting for you to send me one to like
I don't have them, and then you unlock my card
when you send me like I don't have them waiting
you know I got one. Now I'll send them one
like I feel like you're either on someone's Christmas list,
so you're not. And this time of year people. A

(11:37):
few people have texted me recently asking for my address,
and I know why that is because they want to
send me a Christmas card. I almost believe in peel
box one, two, three, four, you know Bethlehem. I don't know,
because I don't. I'd say I almost don't. I don't
really want it. So yeah, like, I guess you're right
now that I think about it, You're it's like, oh
that's nice. I look at it and then I then

(11:58):
you put it goes in the trash. Some one said,
I'm not hanging them up the thought size. I'm not
hanging them up. I see where Pauline is coming from.
It's the same as Facebook or Instagram. Everyone just posts
a good and it's never all rainbows and unicorns. But
I will hang the cards at my fridge until the
end of the holiday. I will say my mom has
a big stack of them, like because she gets them.
And when I when I get home, I'll go through

(12:20):
and I'll look and be like, oh, this so and
so's getting fat, and you know, I look, I'm looking.
I'll be like, oh yeah, wow, Like you know, because
sometimes it's people that I knew, or like, you know,
my sister's friends that I may have hooked up with.
At one point, I'm like, ah, she's looking good, or
like she married him. Really no kidding, I mean that's
really what I do is it's really more judgmental. I
think people like probably think oh it's sweet. No I

(12:41):
look and go like, oh boy, really, that's the choices
were made here, Like that's that's who you married. That's
that's what you thought was a good idea. That's the
spirit of the holidays right there, right it's honis keia
it real. I believe we're being grinches apparently big stories
of the day. I did see someone the other day

(13:02):
on TikTok that like makes a fake Christmas card and
send that to people like with a fake like like
Getty images, just a fake family, not even damning and
like the whole thing, and then they don't tell anyone
that it was from them until later it's like they
think this is funny, Like they send this whole narrative
to the whole family doesn't exist, and the whole thing,
send it to people's houses and then they open it,

(13:22):
they're like, am I supposed to know who this is?
And then like later on after the holidays, They're like, hey,
did you get my funny Christmas card? That didn't you know?
I didn't make any sense to you?

Speaker 5 (13:31):
That would be funny. It's your cousin Brian and his
kids from Saint Louis.

Speaker 1 (13:35):
See, that would kind of bother me. Like if I
got a card in the mail addressed to me right
and I didn't know who the people were, I'd be like,
what is this? You know what I mean? It might
bug me. I'd try and like find it. Do you
ever do that? Do you ever like reverse? Like I'll
get a phone number, I'll get a call and I'll
be like, what is this? I don't answer it? And
then I'm like and then I'll try and figure out
who it is. Or I'll get a text. And this

(13:56):
is before like the scam where people would text you
and say, hey, you know, did you get my note?
You know whatever? You know that you're getting out there
trying to like see if you'll respond. Before that, I
would get text from people and then I'd go like,
first I look up the area code, YEP. If I
didn't have the number in my phone, I'd be like, Okay,
who do I know from Topeka? Nobody?

Speaker 9 (14:15):
You know?

Speaker 1 (14:15):
And then it's like I'd keep searching something. Sometimes Oh
I know who that is. I forgot to say, Okay,
how you doing? And other times I would be like
who is this? Or then you get like a little
tint of excitement. You're like always that person that I
used to date and they want some more. There I
always come back.

Speaker 5 (14:29):
I always think it's Oprah. I'm like, she's coming to
get me, like it's my time. It's never her, but.

Speaker 1 (14:35):
Because Oprah will text you directly, Yeah, she would text me.

Speaker 6 (14:41):
But my thing is now, I take the number and
I put it in cash app and then cash app
will tell you exactly.

Speaker 1 (14:47):
What really smart? That's smart? Wait do they have to
have cash App?

Speaker 5 (14:51):
Yes, and most people do so.

Speaker 8 (14:53):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (14:54):
I didn't know you could do that. Well that is good.
Happened to me the other day, but it was the
State Police. I thought it was why I got this number,
and I was like, oh, like like I don't know
this number.

Speaker 2 (15:10):
This is exciting and it was this thin I picked
up and I was like hello, and they were like,
this is the so and so from the State Police.
I was like, oh, They're like you're not in trouble,
but were you driving on this road at this time,
at this date, and I was like, yes, Like, did
you happen to hear anything?

Speaker 1 (15:27):
I'm like no, They're like, you didn't hear anything out
of the ordinary.

Speaker 7 (15:31):
I was like no.

Speaker 2 (15:32):
They're like, okay, well, we can't really tell you anything else,
but yeah, thank you for investigating a crime.

Speaker 1 (15:38):
Yeah, I made the witness. And here you could have
been a witness. You could have been on dateline or something.
Right here, I am thinking it's Oprah for my big break,
and it's the state Police. But Oprah from a from
a Springfield phone number, right or Chris Jenner.

Speaker 2 (15:53):
I had told the number just to make sure I
wasn't getting scammed, because you know there's scams out there too.

Speaker 1 (15:58):
Oh yeah, but it was the real please wow, I'll
say which a treasure trope of information. And we've discussed
this before is Venmo. If you go in there. I
rarely go in there, but boys that hours of entertainment.
If you go in there, you can see and credit
people aren't really necessarily saying what they what they actually
gave the money for. But it's very interesting to see

(16:18):
who's sending whom money because that usually either means they're
like hanging out or like are dating or do you
know what I mean? Because you can go in there,
like I'll see my exes and I'll be like, I
think I told the story before, but like there was
this one girl I dated, and apparently like she pays
for half of all the dates she goes on with
her new boyfriend because it'll be like dinner, like a
little emoji of a dinner and then like twenty dollars

(16:39):
or something, and I'm like, wait, since when are we
splitting dates? You never split any dates. I'd pay for everything.
It would be like half of rent, you know, like
oh they live together now, apparently it'll be like a
little house, you know, and it'll be like cause you
can decipher like what you know, what they're paying the
money for. I always put something in the little notes,
like you know, crack cocaine or something, so that would

(17:02):
you have you would have no real idea what it
was I was paying someone for it.

Speaker 6 (17:05):
I believe people actually use that as an app, Like
I would never use that venmo where you can see
what I'm doing, and why like why would you?

Speaker 1 (17:13):
That's chrisy Well, go in go in there and check
it out, like oh, I didn't know these two. Oh,
these two had lunch together. Really, that's very interesting that
these two were hanging out. I could never I'm just jealous,
but no, there's a lot of information in there if
you look carefully enough, illegally, you can't use that allowed
you're in a different Yeah, you actually are banned from venmo.

Speaker 3 (17:34):
Yeah, that's a true story.

Speaker 1 (17:35):
Like Jo, that's not information that is get access to
it now.

Speaker 3 (17:39):
So I'm a little jealous, but I would never put
my business out there like that.

Speaker 5 (17:42):
Are you kidding?

Speaker 7 (17:43):
Me?

Speaker 1 (17:43):
Was doing a little money laundering using venmo and now
Venmo Actually she's not allowed to use it.

Speaker 3 (17:48):
I've tried to get back on so many times and
they verify me and they literally say no, stop.

Speaker 1 (17:53):
Well, the state police are calling you for a different reason. Wow,
and it has to do with them. So Hollywood, of course,
is reeling after The Princess Bride director and actor Rob
Reiner and his wife, Michelle Singer Runner were found stabbed
to death in their La home on Sunday and what
authorities are treating as a double homicide. Both victims were
found in their Brentwood residence on December fourteenth. Their daughter

(18:14):
found them had called for help. Their thirty two year
old son, Nick, was taken into police custody and is
charged in connection with the death. Law enforcement says that
he was found near the University of Southern California and
is being held without bail as the investigation continues. As
family members are also speaking out. Rob and Michelle's daughter
said that she had seen her father and a family
gathering just one day before the murders and described the

(18:36):
loss as devastating for the entire family. The investigation is
ongoing as LA authorities piece together the circumstances. Also another
I mean this is a frightening story. Federal authority said
Monday that they prevented a coordinated bomb attack planned for
New Year's Eve in the LA area, arresting four people
linked to an extremist group before any explosive devices could

(18:57):
be used. They identified the suspects taken into custody after
law enforced been found then preparing improvised explosive devices during
a rehearsal at a remote site east of the city.
Authority say the arrest came just days before New Year's Eve,
when the group allegedly planned to set off backpacks filled
with pipe bombs at five or more locations across southern California,

(19:19):
including major business sites described as Amazon type logistics centers.
So that is really scary. The next Powerball drawing schedule
for tomorrow night, December seventeenth, and it's one point one
billion dollars. Yes, I mean that really got your attention.

(19:42):
It's sadd you. You go ahead, and my ticket is
going to contribute to my winnings. But I'll give you.
I'll give you whatever you invested back. It's fine. Really, yeah, no,
it's good. One point one billion dollars, one of the
largest and powerball history of no player matches all six
numbers again on Wednesday. The jackpot will continue to grow.
The Postal Service holiday dead lies are this week. So
if you try to mail something to somebody for the

(20:04):
holidays use the US Postal Service, then well, here are
the deadlines. Tomorrow is the last day to send your
items off in time to get them by Christmas. If
you're using ground or first class mail service within the
lower forty eight states, the deadline is Thursday for Priority
Mail Service delivery and this Saturday for Priority Mail Express.

(20:25):
And the last US pennies ever made. We did the
story a few weeks ago. They're not gonna make pennies
anymore because, like pennies are worth more than a penny,
it was too expensive to make them and nobody uses them.
Sixteen point seven million dollars is where the last pennies
ever minted were sold for, so it was an auction.
On Thursday, they sold two hundred and thirty two sets

(20:48):
of three coins, each with prices averaging seventy two thousand
dollars per set. The final set, which included the very
last pennies from the Philadelphia and Denver mints, plus a
twenty four carried gold penny, went for eight hundred thousand dollars.
Each coin was marked with a Greek omega symbol to
show it was from the final run. The US stopped
making pennies in November because they cost more than two

(21:09):
cents each to produce. So someone has three pennies worth
eight hundred thousand dollars. Wow, the last one. Think they're
gonna make money on that? I guess it'll be on
pond Stars in like five years. Yes, I'll give you
twenty four dollars for it. Yeah, I don't know. These
are hard to sell, man. You ever watched that show
Pon say, it's like, oh man, every low ball everything.
Oh man, Yeah, I got an expert down the street

(21:30):
who knows everything about gold pennies. Let me get him
down here. Let me get Steve down here. Steve just
happens to be hanging around here. Steve comes in with
a little little magnifying glass. Oh yeah, these are these
are authentic? Yeah, all right? How much they worth? Probably
eight hundred thousand. I'll give you seventy four dollars, right,
what what do you mean seventy he's eight hundred thousand. Yeah,

(21:50):
I don't know. They're gonna sit here for a while though.
These are hard to sell, the difficult to sell. I
give you one hundred and four, one hundred and four dollars.
It's National Clean out your Refrigerator Day and National philanthro

One of our favorite girl groups has reunited, Danny Kane,
known for their hit songs Damage and Showstopper, and they
are kind of their Iconic Time on MTV's making the
band as reunited and hit the road on a very
intimate tour.

Speaker 5 (22:25):
We'll call it it to.

Speaker 1 (22:30):
Arrhyve, Is that what you mean?

Speaker 5 (22:31):
It's like school gym nazy.

Speaker 6 (22:42):
But the reunion, you know, they hit the road and
now the reunion only includes three of the five original
members Aubrey, d Woods and Andrea, and the tours off
to a slightly rocky start after group member Aubrey O
Day was hospitalized and forced to miss their second tour stop.
Fans were obviously worried about our and has since then.
She's been released from the hospital and told fans on

(23:04):
x that rewatching the details of her life play out
in front of the world has been overwhelming and created
a lot of pressure in this current moment. She's referring
to the Diddy documentary on Netflix. She said it took
all of a day and a trip to the er
to get her back on tour, but thanks to those
who showed sincere support.

Speaker 5 (23:21):
So we are wishing Aubrey all the best with this tour.

Speaker 1 (23:25):
Yes, yeah, more dates please, I mean now, I mean
you're sitting five and I'm can you imagine you're too
of him out there?

Speaker 2 (23:35):
And well, and the two that performed weren't part of
the initial reunion, so that they were performing songs that
they were never on.

Speaker 6 (23:44):
It's the dedication for me, you know, we will take
what we can get, okay. And other reunion news, our
new friend Nellie revealed a major reunion moment that longtime
fans have waited decades to hear during his annual Black
and White Ball in Saint Louis on Sunday, announced that
hit making producer Metro Booming will executive produce the first

(24:05):
Saints Saint Lunatics album in twenty five years. Yeah, Nellie
told the crowd, Saint Lunatics twenty twenty six executive produced
by Metro Booming, Saint Louis.

Speaker 5 (24:15):
We in a building, we turning up twenty twenty six
one time.

Speaker 6 (24:18):
The news marks a major milestone for the group, whose
legacy has long been complicated by internal conflict.

Speaker 5 (24:24):
Because when you're in a group, there's always some conflict.

Speaker 6 (24:27):
Nellie and the group his group member a Li, have
been in a long year battle over royalties and credits,
which led to a lawsuit tied to Country Grammar, though
the case has ultimately been dropped in April of twenty
twenty five.

Speaker 5 (24:40):
So now that the case is dropped, they're getting back together.

Speaker 1 (24:43):
With Metro Booman. That's gonna be so good song. You
don't want new Nelly music? Or do we just want
Nellie to go around the country several times? Just do
several labs playing the songs that we know.

Speaker 2 (24:52):
Yeah, I mean, if it's good, and maybe it's different
because it's going to be the group, Like so maybe
they're gonna come with something different and especially a new
sound with Metro on it.

Speaker 1 (24:59):
Like, think it's gonna be good.

Speaker 6 (25:00):
I'm here for it with Nellie and Murphy Lee. I
love to see them together, so we'll check it out.

nervous Monday.

Speaker 2 (26:37):
I'm having my first surgery ever, like being put out
under anesthesia like everything. I have never done this before,
but I've talked about it a little bit. But basically
I tore my miniscus just walking here at the radio servation. Yeah,
just walking to my desk and felt a pop. And

(26:58):
it's been about six months of going through this. I
was scheduled to have it back in September, but insurance
is always just so fun.

Speaker 1 (27:08):
So basically, haven't you have it? Haven't you had it
scheduled like three times? Yes? And then they're like, oh,
by the way, insurance isn't gonna pay for that.

Speaker 2 (27:16):
Yeah, so you call me like two day They call
me like two days before, and they're like, okay, so, yeah,
your doctor is in network, but the building that he's
doing the surgery is not, even though it's the same
building as his office, just two floors up, so we're
not gonna pay for that.

Speaker 1 (27:31):
I'm like, what are you talking about. So finally having
done at one of those quick centers literally at the same.

Speaker 2 (27:40):
Time, Yeah, yeah, one of those little like you know,
I don't know what those things are called, like little
rooms and make shift rooms.

Speaker 1 (27:47):
I'm like, you know it, really, I'll will go anywhere at.

Speaker 2 (27:50):
This point just to have it done, Like I just
want this to be over with, Like I'm sick of
like walking around like I'm like eighty five years old,
Like I'm just sick of it. But finally I found
a doctor office that was in network. The lovely, lovely
woman that works there and their medical building looked at
my list of approved locations was able to like sing
stuff up.

Speaker 1 (28:10):
So it's happening on Monday.

Speaker 2 (28:12):
And the thing that I'm most nervous about is like
the recoup time because like how it's torn or whatever.
He won't know until he gets in there, like how
hard it's going to be to repair it. So he
basically said, like, you could be up walking in forty
eight hours, or you could be in like one of
those straight leg brace things for six weeks.

Speaker 1 (28:34):
That's insurance paid for.

Speaker 8 (28:36):
It.

Speaker 1 (28:36):
Has never done this before, so he's like, he's like,
once I figure it out, right, Yeah, we're right, that's crazy.
We're in this together. I'm sorry, you're not going to
be able to work jingle Bow Sacramento. I'm sorry, I'm
drawing the line you can. You can't work any more
jingle Bo.

Speaker 2 (28:54):
I'm sorry unless they give me a scooter or something.
But yeah, so I'm a little nervous. I've never been
put out for so like, I'm not so ner I
don't know, like I'm not You'll love it, really because
in aod sleep. I'm nervous about waking up because I
am chronically nauseous all the time. Like I'm nauseous all
the time. So I have a feeling like that's going
to be really rough for me. But Mike is closing

(29:17):
the Gayarage for the day. He is going to drive
me to this the hospital to get.

Speaker 1 (29:22):
It time for Mike.

Speaker 2 (29:22):
My parents are taking off for whatever reason. I was like,
we all don't need to be there staring at me,
but like they're daying off. We're doing the whole big
to do. We have three people staring at you.

Speaker 3 (29:32):
Accepting help from your village, from your people, your family.

Speaker 1 (29:36):
This is amazing. I don't have an option. I feel
like like no one needs ting me an option. They're like,
we're just showing up. So well. He asked me to
He asked me to shave his entire body from head
to because apparently he believes that he needs to do that.
They just share around the knee, but for some reason
he wants he wants me to wax him from head
to and I look, I heard I'm part of the village,
but like you know, I draw the line there. Do

(29:58):
I need to shave my leg? Oh god, I think
I think they shame where they need to be. Oh, okay,
so you're not. The regents are fine.

Speaker 5 (30:08):

Yeah, So I don't know. I'm nervous. I don't know.
You got this. We'll see how it goes. I I
don't know.

Speaker 2 (30:21):
I don't I'm such a baby when it comes to
like pain and medical stuff like I yeah.

Speaker 1 (30:26):
But you've been hobbled by this for as you mentioned,
six months, so it's like, yeah, we got to get
this done. At least it's I know it's going to
be over right, and all the anticipation of planning and
then you know, not being able to go. Yeah, the
scheduled during the pharmacists lunchtime. But course they can't do it.

Speaker 9 (30:42):
You know.

Speaker 1 (30:43):
Yeah, they're gonna be good.

Speaker 3 (30:45):
We'll call it anything. Because you have driven me around
town after my BBLS a.

Speaker 1 (30:49):
Couple of times now, leaking him vaccine.

Speaker 3 (30:51):
Yes, like jesuon's been my bride or I and now
I need to repay him.

Speaker 12 (30:55):
I pay you.

Speaker 1 (30:59):
She's like leaking my just how well we know each other.
Like Paulina's BBL has been Uh. We actually had to
move studios because they had to condemn the old one
because her BBL was all over the place. It's a
real thing. Yeah, Kiki, go.

Speaker 6 (31:14):
All right, dear blog, I just want to know from
the thirteen, do you take your spouse to the holiday
Christmas party at work?

Speaker 5 (31:23):
I'm not here for it. And it's for a few reasons.

Speaker 6 (31:27):
One because I don't need Timothy coming in here running
his mouth, you know, talking about what I do at home.
I don't need him to build a relationship with y'all.
And then next thing, you know, y'all calling each other
and Kei kiying on the phone. It's like it's like
church and state somethings should just be separate.

Speaker 8 (31:43):
So I don't.

Speaker 6 (31:44):
People have been asking, like you guys are engaged now,
like are you going to bring him to the party?

Speaker 1 (31:47):
And I'm like, no, why would I do that? Why?
Ns I don't you realize you're marrying this man right,
Like you can realize that it's in theory of lifelong commitment,
Like you're not gonna be able to hide him forever.

Speaker 5 (31:58):
No, I don't want to hide him. I just don't
need him, like.

Speaker 1 (32:01):
You don't want him to become friends. Like, what if
I meet him tonight? I'm like, I'm sure I'm gonna
think he's a great guy, right, and then you're right now,
all of a sudden, we're hanging out.

Speaker 6 (32:08):
Right, and then I'm you know, I'm looking on Instagram
and y'all at the bar. I don't appreciate that.

Speaker 1 (32:12):
I just I don't know. What are you afraid that
he would tell us that you're hyping?

Speaker 5 (32:16):
My God, so many things I don't know. I just
don't need his side of the story being shared amongst
my coworkers.

Speaker 1 (32:24):
That's what this is really about. You want to come
in here and talk whole big, conflicting narratives we're about
to get.

Speaker 6 (32:29):
He's gonna be like she cooks every night and waits
on me hand and fuck yeah, I'm like, we don't
know that, lady.

Speaker 1 (32:35):
Wow, something wouldn't that be something if, like we learned
from Big Tim that it's a completely different narrative than
the one she comes in here with. And she been
begging me to She's been begging me to propose for years.
You coming in here, y'all, I don't care about no man.

Speaker 6 (32:52):
I don't know though, I just feel like it's such
a weird vibe sometimes for couples when it comes to
the holiday party, like do you bring them you leave
them at home? Is someone upset that they weren't invited?

Speaker 5 (33:03):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (33:04):
Have you ever brought a date to that holiday?

Speaker 5 (33:05):
Do you go to the holiday party?

Speaker 1 (33:09):
Sometimes I swing, I pull, I pull up.

Speaker 3 (33:12):
Sometimes he pulls up and then he's right out the door.
But I respect that. That's me tonight.

Speaker 5 (33:17):
I respect it.

Speaker 1 (33:18):
Yeah, it's not really my vibe. I don't around coworkers.
And then it's when you've attended.

Speaker 5 (33:25):
Have you ever brought a date?

Speaker 11 (33:28):
No?

Speaker 6 (33:28):
Okay, no no, but I just yeah, people on the
text are saying that it's awkward to bring your spouse,
and I think it is. I think everyone is a
little different at work than they are at home.

Speaker 1 (33:41):
Yeah, it's just it's a bunch of chit chat with
people that I already chitch had with, like I know,
except now alcohol is involved. And then the only thing
good about going to the office holiday party is is
there's there's there were always the people who take it
too far, and it's fascinating to watch those people like
oh so you wanted your career to end tonight apparently
like right before Smith, because I can tell you right now,

(34:01):
I can see in my head who they are, because
it's every time there's alcohol served in any function, it's like,
oh my god, does our insurance that include like you know,
Betty Ford or something, because you need to go no,
because it's like it's like, you know, everyone's having a
few cocktails and then there's like the one person like
who's like freebasing in the corner, you know what I mean,
Like it's in the oh mind's like you realize that

(34:22):
you're gonna go to work and like everyone can just
gonna remember that you took your shirt off and danced
on the table. I love it. You love that. I
do love it.

Speaker 7 (34:31):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (34:32):
I bring Mike and he loves the show. Like he
thinks it's so entertaining, like.

Speaker 5 (34:35):
He's putting faces to name, but he's.

Speaker 1 (34:37):
Never working in office.

Speaker 2 (34:38):
He's never had these type of relationships with people are
worked in like an office hierarchy, So like he thinks
it's so enterty.

Speaker 1 (34:44):
He loves it. He loves every second of it. Yeah, yeah,
Phone vibrates. It's a radio shows.

Speaker 2 (34:50):
It's almost he's coming tonight. Should come tonight and they
could meet. Oh, Mike and Tim Jason.

Speaker 5 (34:57):
I'm not doing it.

Speaker 7 (34:58):
I can't.

Speaker 5 (34:59):
It's just too risk.

Speaker 1 (35:03):
Hiding. Yeah right, bring the man. You know what, I'll
tell you what if Big Kim is there tonight that
I'll promise you all go oh please, yeah.

Speaker 7 (35:11):

(35:59):
Rack and you're a big bag of money, Amy.

Speaker 13 (36:02):
That's right, that's right. That's the best time of year.

Speaker 12 (36:05):
It's the best time to shower people with kiff and
hope and money of course to make it all happen, and.

Speaker 13 (36:10):
One eight hundred truck cards.

Speaker 1 (36:11):
We have all of that, So let's do it well.
I gotta thank you, Amy, because all year long, you've
been super generous. Next year we've got stuff planned as
well with you in one eight hundred truck wreck. But
but you jump at the opportunity to help us with this,
because everybody on the show loves being able to do this.
But the budget is tight, but thanks to you and
that you've got one of those black American Express cards,
don't you. You got the kind that they only invite
you to.

Speaker 13 (36:31):
That's right, because I don't have a budget. As long
as I'm the only one that owns all this stuff,
I have no budget. Fred, we can do whatever we
want to do. So let's do some good for Jackie
and her dad.

Speaker 1 (36:41):
Let's do it right now. I'm going to welcome them
Jackie and Bill. Yes, Oh we got to go get Bill.

Speaker 3 (36:47):
I told her she got answer alone, and then make
sure that he was there afterwards we got it.

Speaker 1 (36:51):
We can't do it without Bill.

Speaker 3 (36:53):
We wanted to surprise him.

Speaker 4 (36:55):
I days were here.

Speaker 1 (36:56):
Hey Bill, Bill, Bill, you idea what's going on right now? Ah?

Speaker 11 (37:01):
You know?

Speaker 1 (37:02):
Absolutely none at all? Okay, Well, Bill, I already like
you for some reason. I just I think you're a
good guy. But Jackie wrote to us to the Fred
Show on Kiss FM and wanted us to know about you. Jackie,
will you read the note that you sent us?

Speaker 14 (37:14):
Yes, I will dear Fred Show and Eni. This year,
my holiday wish is for my dad. There's not enough
time to write down all the reasons that he's deserving,
so I'll highlight what he's done this last year. In
November of twenty twenty four, I fell very sick. I
was unable to work for a full two months, bad ridden,
barely able to walk evento the bathroom, and so weak

(37:35):
for a seemingly healthy thirty three year old. It was
a terrifying time. My dad turned all of his time, energy,
and focus to helping his extremely sick kid. He somehow
managed to hold his job while driving me to doctor
after doctor, being in and out of the er, cooking
me meals, tending to me daily while my fiancee was
working long hours, staying up late researching answers, remedies, and

(37:58):
new modalities. He spent so much more trying alternative medicine treatments.
The list carries I don't know that he slept a
full night for months. Dash forward thirteen months. I'm still
dealing with some stubborn lingering symptoms, but I'm back to work, walking, traveling,
and cavaitive function is back. I'm so much better, and
I credit it to him. He saw his daughter suffering

(38:18):
and channeled everything to my healing. Not to mention, in
the middle of all of this, his brother in law
died suddenly, so he had to take off to Boston
to support his sister for a week. He's the most
selfless human and the best dad. I wish I could
give him even ten percent of what he gives me
in this life. He's just the type of guy to
give away all he has to help people in need.
He's always putting off doing anything for himself. My holiday

(38:41):
wish is to help him with his bills and for
him to go on a shopping spury or do something
for himself. He deserves it more than anyone. In my
totally biased opinion.

Speaker 1 (38:51):
Thank you Jackie viol mine own no, not at all,
and be like this is what dads you're supposed to do,
but this isn't what all dads do. But you are
that guy.

Speaker 15 (39:01):
Well, thank you, But in my mind, that's just what
to do. Don't think twice about it. My daughter is
everything to me and I don't care how old she is.
She's my little girl and if she's in need, that's
my priority and always will be.

Speaker 7 (39:15):
Wow.

Speaker 1 (39:15):
And I think a lot of people listening now are going, yeah, yeah,
I mean there are a lot of great parents out there.
But I mean for you to dedicate yourself and to
figure out a way to not only help other people
in your family and still go to work and do
all of this stuff, I would imagine you've put a
lot of your own needs to the side.

Speaker 13 (39:30):
Yep, I had to.

Speaker 15 (39:33):
Don't even take about it. I don't know. I know
a ton of consideration.

Speaker 1 (39:36):
Amy, we like, we like Bill a lot, and Billy
is here. Amy is my friend from one hundred truck Breck.
But Amy also has infinite funds, Okay, and so we
call Amy when we want to do something nice for
someone like you. Bill and Amy, what's that going to
be well.

Speaker 13 (39:49):
I think we got it's hard to bill about. You know,
you got to get bill stacked up, and you want
to at least your daughter wants you go on a
shopping spree and do something for yourself. What would you
do for your yourself if you had.

Speaker 1 (40:01):
Unlimited fun and don't say give it to somebody else.
That is an unacceptable answer right this minute.

Speaker 14 (40:05):
You need to circulation.

Speaker 15 (40:08):
I never even think about it. I don't even I
can't even think I figure out something.

Speaker 13 (40:15):
Though, Yes, you need to, absolutely well, you need to
figure out something, because on behalf of one eight hundred
truck wreck, I'm gonna make sure you can pay all
your bills. I'm gonna make sure that. I don't know
if you want what do guys get new TVs main case,
some sort of like you know, power tool.

Speaker 11 (40:35):
For that.

Speaker 13 (40:36):
If you want to take a trip somewhere, you're gonna
have money for that, because on behalf of one eight
hundred truck wreck, we're gonna give you five thousand dollars.

Speaker 1 (40:44):
There you go, bill, five thousand dollars.

Speaker 15 (40:46):
Wow, that's unbelievable. That is absolutely unbelievable. Now what I
expected this morning.

Speaker 3 (40:52):
You deserve it, Dad, you do.

Speaker 1 (40:55):

Speaker 13 (42:53):
I'm good?

Speaker 1 (42:53):
How are you doing great? Jessica. I've got your your
note here for Stay or Go. We're gonna at the
end of this we're going to side decide collectively the
room and then everyone listening eight five five five one
three five the trajectory for the rest of your life.
Because I don't know if you knew this, and it's
in a fine print but like, whatever we decide is
what you're gonna have to do with your life. So
here we go. You unfortunately, we're recently in a car accident,

(43:17):
and I'm sorry, but you're okay as okay as can
be now, right.

Speaker 4 (43:22):
Yeah, you know, it was a year and a half ago,
and I have a bunch of injuries that you know,
I survived. I'm here and I'm really happy to be alive.

Speaker 1 (43:32):
Good, And so there's some repercussions though, Like the life
is a little bit different now. You're not maybe moving
around as well as you were a year and a
half ago and things like that.

Speaker 4 (43:41):
Yeah, of course, you know, I'm not really like able
to walk or really like act like myself. It's not
the same. And you know, I understand that it's kind
of a new version of me and that it would
be hard for anybody to deal with. But my husband
never said anything about that I kind of look new

(44:02):
or that I act a bit different. But he has
been treating me a bit different. He doesn't really want
to have sex with me, and he's not really romantic.

Speaker 3 (44:12):
He's just kind of different.

Speaker 7 (44:14):
I guess, okay, and everything, you know, ahead, no no worries.

Speaker 4 (44:21):
I've tried to talk to him about it, and he
keeps assuring me that he doesn't feel differently about me,
and he does say that I'm beautiful, but I don't know,
the actions aren't really saying the same thing and saying
the opposite.

Speaker 1 (44:36):
Like like you're not you're not exercising as much, or
like you sort of form his change. I mean, what
what is what has changed exactly?

Speaker 4 (44:46):
Yeah, I used to take classes every single day, different
work out classes, and I'm not really moving as well.
So I can take yoga maybe twice a week, which
isn't the same, and it's I'm not even as good,
of course as I was before.

Speaker 13 (45:00):
And you know, I used to do so.

Speaker 4 (45:04):
Many things around the house and I can't clean as well,
so I'm not really doing that as well. You know,
I had to buy like a little robot that goes
around the apartment clean a.

Speaker 14 (45:13):
Little bit better.

Speaker 1 (45:14):
Okay? And is this permanent?

Speaker 9 (45:16):
Like is it?

Speaker 1 (45:17):
Are you in the process of I'm just trying to
sort of understand what what life looks like now, and
how ye is this sort of a permanent change over time?
Will you sort of rehab and then maybe be able
to to because I mean, I don't really care what
this guy thinks for yourself. I mean, if you aspire
to be it sounds like fitness and that you know
sort of thing was something that was important to you

(45:37):
prior you to your accident. So is this something that
you'll be able to get back to or not?

Speaker 13 (45:42):
I think not to the capacity I was doing before.

Speaker 4 (45:45):
And yes, I am in rehab and working towards being
a better version of myself is from the accident.

Speaker 1 (45:51):
But.

Speaker 13 (45:52):
I'm not there yet.

Speaker 4 (45:53):
It's been a year and a half and it's going
to take a bit of time, and I'm doing my best.

Speaker 1 (46:00):
And so you guys have talked about this, Jessica, and
you've said, hey, you know, I've noticed a difference since
the accident, and I feel like maybe you don't. I
h what's the word I would use. I'm not as
appealing to you as I've noticed that. I feel that
you're not as appealing. I'm not as appealing to you
as I was before the accident. And this guy has
reassured you that he doesn't feel any differently, but yet

(46:22):
his actions, you know, as far as intimacy and things
like that, say something different.

Speaker 4 (46:27):
Yeah, it says something completely different. And you know it's
it's hurtful, and I've tried saying it many, many times,
and he just keeps reassuring.

Speaker 13 (46:35):
Me he feels the same way.

Speaker 1 (46:37):
And so the question becomes like, is it is it
always going to be this way or is it something
that he that he adjusts to, or does he come around?
Or I mean, is this the new sort of state
of normal in your marriage, in which case you'd have
to ask yourself are we ever going to have the
same connection? And if we're not, then what does that
look like? I assume that's kind of where you're at. Yeah, no,

(46:59):
it is what does your gut tell you? Does your
gut tell you that this is that he'll come around,
or does your gut tell you that he's just not
comfortable with the new normal And maybe he sees you
differently despite and doesn't want to hurt your feelings, which,
of course it would be devastating for your partner to
say that to you.

Speaker 4 (47:17):
You know, right now, it feels like he sees me differently,
which is why I keep asking him, you know, how
he feels about me, and I need to be reassured
right now it doesn't feel like he sees me in
the same way at all, And how long could you
go on like this before you move on?

Speaker 1 (47:40):
I don't know.

Speaker 4 (47:41):
It's hard because he's my husband and I love him,
so it's tricky. I just I don't feel wanted or
loved the way that I did before.

Speaker 1 (47:53):
So I don't know, and I knew that. I know
that's kind of cliche to say, but I mean, and
from the guy who's never been married but and isn't
in a relationship. But like you know, you marry someone.
This is supposed to be for life, and and you're
supposed to know in in what is it they say,
in sickness and in health? I mean, so, so you
don't necessarily marry permanently the person who you married whenever

(48:15):
you did. You know, people obviously, time evolves and people
change and things happen and people age. And I'm sure
you know, maybe he's exactly the same guy as he
was whenever you married him. I doubt it. And it's
very easy for all of us to say, well, that's
the deal, that's the code, that's what you agreed to.
But I mean, if we ask ourselves honestly, are we
prepared for our partner to get sicker? We prepare prepared

(48:39):
for our partner to decide that they don't want to
take care of themselves anymore. Are we prepared for our
partner to be in an accident? Are we truly prepared
for that? I wonder if people are being really honest,
you hope the answer is always yes. But but is
it really because you know, who wants to become And
I'm not saying this is your example, but I mean,
who really wants to become a caregiver? Who really wants
to have to? And then but but that's what we

(49:00):
agreed to. But I guess what I'm trying to get
to is the other side of this, the honest side
where it's this wasn't you know that he thought he
was marrying one thing and now he feels like he's
getting something different and he's having a hard time with
that connection. That that's a him problem, not a you problem.
But I mean I think we, you know, we kind
of have to be honest with ourselves that this is

(49:21):
something that could happen in any relationship. Despite people saying
over and over again, stick this in in health, Yeah,
this is what you're supposed to do. And so I
guess I'm going with this is at what point do
you say this guy is clearly not prepared for that.
He said it, but he doesn't mean it, and you
know he may love you, but I guess you know,

(49:45):
at what point do you say I need to hit
reset on this like this, this guy's not clearly in
it for everything. He's not all in, and so maybe
I need to move on and find somebody who is.
Because you can't be expected to live this way feeling
kind of rejected for the rest of your life. I mean,
how long are you sing both to wait for this
guy to decide that that he's above all this.

Speaker 4 (50:07):
I don't know, you know, is it another year, is
it another couple months? I don't know. It's hard because
you know, if I was in his position, of course,
I think I'd be acting differently.

Speaker 6 (50:22):
But I don't know, and you don't suspect that there's
any shenanigans going on, like he may be in another situation.

Speaker 4 (50:31):
Oh okay, I mean he's like word wise, he's really
been there for me. You know, he always says that
I'm beautiful and is very loving in words, but the
actions are not really there.

Speaker 3 (50:46):
Yeah, this is really sad, and I'm really sorry that
you guys are going through this, and I feel like,
to friend's point, like, yeah, maybe he's not prepared, but
is anybody ever prepared for a transition like this in
life when you have become the caregiver, whether it's to
your partner, an aging parent, even your children. Like this
can happen to anybody, so nobody's exempt from any of this.
So I do think that he needs to step it

(51:07):
up and be the husband that he promised to be
when he said right through sickness and through health. And yes,
not everybody's equipped to be that, I understand, but that's
chosen family. Right when you marry somebody, it's chosen family.
Like we are now a unit. So like I feel like,
well that's.

Speaker 8 (51:21):
What I mean.

Speaker 1 (51:21):
I mean, people say this, but are they really prepared?
You better be h by the way, you know, And
I don't know your situation completely, Jessica, but like I mean,
you're you're mobile, you're exercising, you're working at it, you're
trying to be your best self. You're limited in certain ways.
I mean, it could be so much worse. People deal
with much worse every single day, and I guess I

(51:42):
just wonder, you know, maybe there's a transition period where
he sort of mourns what used to be, but then
then you step it up and you go, okay, no,
I married more than this.

Speaker 7 (51:51):
It was.

Speaker 1 (51:51):
It's deeper than that, And it sounds like maybe he didn't.
I mean, a year and a half is a long
time to wait for someone to uh for you to
feel wanted again, and you deserve to feel wanted. So
I don't know, maybe that's the conversation. You know, maybe
it's and I would love to know what people have
been through this or you know, after pregnancy or or
or you know, and I get it's not all about women.

(52:13):
You know, maybe a guy went through an accident and
he was, you know, very physically fit and then now
he's not as much. Or maybe maybe people just lose
the energy or the will, or they get busy and
they don't prioritize things that were once important to them,
that people once found attractive. But I guess, at what
point do you sit down and say, look, I you know,
you say that you care about me the same way,
but it doesn't feel that way, and if it's never

(52:35):
going to feel that way again, then you know, maybe
maybe our connection is lost. And that's very very sad,
but that may be the reality. I mean, is it
is it something worth talking about in those terms?

Speaker 7 (52:51):
Yeah, I mean.

Speaker 4 (52:53):
I've spoken to him about these terms. But I think
it's about putting a timeline. Don't you think about when
when it like starts to affect me that I can't
be in this or do this anymore where I feel
unwanted for this long?

Speaker 1 (53:10):
Well, the timeline is yours. By the way I started
interrupt you, the timeline is yours to make you can't
really go to him and be like, hey, I'll tell you.
I give you six months to get your act together
and remember the person you married and that and the
person inside of here or else. I mean, I think
you have to decide at some point do you think
he's ever going to come around? And if not, you know,
you obviously still bring a tremendous amount of value to

(53:30):
the world. You're the same exact person that he married,
So off we go.

Speaker 5 (53:34):
I think they should try counseling.

Speaker 6 (53:38):
I don't think she should give up on him, because
the way that she said, he's still speaking to her
and he's still you know, telling her she's beautiful. Maybe
he's just going through a mental transition. Of trying to
find his footing in you all's new reality.

Speaker 5 (53:50):
Like you know, when when.

Speaker 6 (53:52):
Something happens to your partner that changes you too. So
maybe he's just going through a rough time, and I
may I think maybe you guys can work it out
in counseling.

Speaker 1 (53:59):
I don't.

Speaker 5 (54:00):
I don't want to say you throw your marriage away.

Speaker 1 (54:02):
No, I definitely think maybe there's a different Maybe some
help with the communication would be good. But yeah, but
I mean, if he's not. A year and a half
is a long time for a guy to tell you
one thing and act differently. So yeah, Jess, let me
take some phone calls on this. I want to see
what people have to say. But I wish you the best.

Speaker 7 (54:16):
Thank you.

Speaker 1 (54:17):
Yeah that's hard. I mean again, you know, people say, oh, yeah,
I'm in it for the long haul, I'm in it
for whatever it is, and then but then it's sometimes
you realize, well, now this maybe they're not in fact,
And then and then I think is it wrong to say, Okay,
well you're not the you weren't actually in this for
sickness in and hell, so we got to move on.
I gotta do something else. I got to find somebody
who values this version of me. I thought it was you.

(54:38):
But it's not tough because otherwise you just live your
whole life the rest of your life like this. I mean,
if you tried everything, is there any shame in prioritizing yourself?
I mean maybe there's shame on his side because well
he didn't live up to his end of the deal.
But hey, Holly, yeah, Hi, Holly, Hey, good morning.

Speaker 5 (54:57):
Say or go?

Speaker 1 (54:58):
What do you think?

Speaker 10 (55:00):
I think?

Speaker 7 (55:00):
Definitely say it sounds a lot like my husband when
I had gone through cancer chemo radiation, and I told
him that I, you know, felt comfortable being intimate, but
he was so afraid of not wanting to hurt me,
not wanting me to be uncomfortable, not wanting me to
feel pressured. And it just sounds like he's very supportive

(55:22):
of her and these are the bumps in the world
that we go through in a marriage.

Speaker 1 (55:27):
Yeah, yeah, But do you think But that's I guess
That's what I'm getting at, is that's what you think,
and that's what you hope your partner thinks when they
agree to be with you for life. But do you
think that at this rate, that's really the commitment that like,
do you think that's really where his head is.

Speaker 7 (55:45):
I do from just hearing what she's saying about him
being so supportive. I don't think we have a right
to tell anybody, you know, what to do with their
bodies and how to change. And I think that it
does sound like he is willing, you know, to be
there through thick and thin and talk to her about it.
And I do feel sorry for her that she feels

(56:06):
it that a certain way, but I hope that she
can get a little bit of comfort maybe thinking that
that's how he's feeling.

Speaker 1 (56:15):
Yeah, I guess just a year and a half of
words and actions that don't match the words, that's that's
a long time to wonder if if he's going to
come around, if he's going to accept the new normal.
So I don't know how I mean to use it.
A year and a half? Is it two years? Is it? Three?

Speaker 4 (56:31):
Is it five?

Speaker 1 (56:32):
Is it ten?

Speaker 9 (56:33):
It?

Speaker 1 (56:33):
Is it? We married each other? So if the if
the intimacy aspect of this relationship is now fundamentally changed,
it doesn't matter. We just stick with it. Like I guess,
that's my question. I don't know, you know, So Holly,
thank you, and I'm sorry you've been through that. Yeah,
final thought, no final thought, go ahead.

Speaker 13 (56:49):
I appreciate that now, I do.

Speaker 7 (56:52):
I know, I do know that it's a long time.
I just want to know that I have been there.
It was quite a while, but again it was just
on his side mostly, and so I'm sorry that she's
going through it. And I thank you guys.

Speaker 1 (57:06):
I love you.

Speaker 7 (57:06):
I will listen to you every day.

Speaker 1 (57:08):
Thank you very much. Have a good day.

Speaker 3 (57:11):
Thanks you too.

Speaker 1 (57:11):
Glad you called Michelle. Hi, Michelle, good morning, gooding. Hey Michelle,
So just to recap here if you're just tuning in,
this woman, Jessica in Sergo. She had an accident and
it sounds like she's I mean, she's not completely immobile
by any means, but she's sort of not the version
of herself sounds like physically that she was prior to

(57:34):
the accident. She's working at it, but she feels kind
of rejected by her partner now and he says that
he doesn't feel any differently, but his actions don't back
that up. And it's been a year and a half
of this and they have had the conversations and they've
tried to work through it, but it's not changing.

Speaker 8 (57:49):
You know, what do you do.

Speaker 9 (57:51):
You know.

Speaker 12 (57:52):
I've been married now twenty seven years, and that's kind
of what marriage is. You're going to have those ups
and downs might last a couple of years, but it's
not I mean, it's a matter of if you're in
it for the long run. And it really really sounded
to me like she's carrying baggage, that she's feeling less

(58:13):
of herself and she might be putting that on him.
I think they should go talk to somebody. But I
don't think that's why you walk away.

Speaker 13 (58:24):
I mean, when you see.

Speaker 12 (58:25):
These couples that have been married sixty years, you don't
think they've had their stuff. And I'm my husband and
I have had our stuff and we're finally, twenty seven
years later, getting to the other side, I hope, with
that rainbow and where it's just like fabulous.

Speaker 1 (58:44):
So that's an interesting perspective because a year and a
half sounds like a long time, but then when you
think of it over the course of a lifetime, a
year and a half is nothing, right, I guess, But
that's the thing that that's what we're trying to get
to here, And of course we're not dumb radio people
going to figure it out, but It's like, you know,
in five years, if nothing changes and you saw the signs,
then is it like, well, I maybe maybe this isn't

(59:06):
the guy that I thought I married. Maybe he's not
actually committed the way that I thought he was, and
so we probably should have moved on a while ago.

Speaker 7 (59:12):
You know.

Speaker 1 (59:12):
I guess it's how do you know, Michelle? And I
guess what you're saying is you don't necessarily know, but hey,
we made this commitment, so we're going to stick with
it forever.

Speaker 5 (59:20):
That's that question.

Speaker 13 (59:22):
Yeah.

Speaker 12 (59:22):
I mean, it's just that's kind of what you signed
up for. I mean, I guess that's how I view it.
It's you know, and you know, maybe they don't have kids.
You know, maybe it's not complicated as complicated. I have
four kids, so you know, maybe it's not that complicated
without kids, but with kids.

Speaker 7 (59:42):
Yeah, now I think that's good.

Speaker 12 (59:44):
It's part of what when you see the people that
have been married sixty years and you say, you know,
what's the secret sauce. It's like it's times like this
when you have rush rough patches, that that's the secret sauce.

Speaker 1 (59:56):
Yeah, thank you, Michelle, have a good day.

Speaker 13 (01:00:00):
I love you, guys.

Speaker 1 (01:00:00):
Hey, love you when she makes you a good point.
My grandparents are married for almost seventy years. It's like,
you're gonna tell me in seventy years, there weren't you know,
lots and health issues.

Speaker 5 (01:00:07):
There was a decade. Granny probably was like, yes, but
but do we.

Speaker 1 (01:00:14):
Even still have those same like and again this is
now this is getting even like more deep. But do
we even still have those same values anymore?

Speaker 8 (01:00:20):
Like?

Speaker 1 (01:00:20):
Is that even? Is that? And I guess that's what
I was getting at prior is are people really getting
married anymore? Truly thinking in their head, no matter what happens,
this is for life. Because if that's not your mentality,
then what Michelle is saying doesn't really matter because that
person isn't isn't feeling the same thing, Like they don't
see it the same way. They're already out And so

(01:00:43):
this is just not to hurt her feelings. This is
almost to make it her idea, you know, so to
assuage some form of guilt. Hey Rachel, Rachel, who are
you talking to?

Speaker 7 (01:00:58):
I'm talking to like, because I was I was going.

Speaker 1 (01:01:04):
To listen to your you know, external dialogue there, but
I can think I came in mid sentence, what did
you want to say? Good morning and.

Speaker 7 (01:01:10):
Welcome good morning.

Speaker 9 (01:01:13):
I was just saying he is in caregiving mode right now,
one percent that part of his brain is just turned off.
He's obviously in love with her and wants to take
care of her. They need to see an intimacy therapist.
And to put it lightly, I think she in that
intimacy department.

Speaker 13 (01:01:33):
Needs to take things into her own hands and make
some purchases.

Speaker 1 (01:01:42):
Purchases. Oh oh okay, all right, we can we can
leave it there. Purchases I think I think we can
fill in the blank on that one. So she needs
to sort of maybe she needs to make you were
saying she used to spice things up in some ways.
Maybe see.

Speaker 7 (01:01:58):
Yeah, And on a they really do need to see
a sex therapist, because.

Speaker 1 (01:02:02):
I don't put this all on her at all, Like
maybe partially, I mean, maybe she's emitting or emoting some
kind of you know, feeling of insecurity, which is unattractive,
But like you know, it's also his job to sort
of meet her where she is. If in fact we're
doing this whole lifelong thing, I think this is.

Speaker 7 (01:02:17):
On her at all.

Speaker 9 (01:02:18):
I do not think this is on her at all.
He has that part of his brain has just turned
off because of whatever she went through.

Speaker 1 (01:02:26):
It was trauma, and he's been.

Speaker 9 (01:02:28):
Through trauma too, right, watching her get better and watching
her body possibly be broken in places he doesn't want
to hurt her and he's in mommy mode. He is
taking care of her, and it's sometimes hard to turn that.

Speaker 1 (01:02:44):
Part of your brain back on. Yeah, that makes sense.
Thank you, Rachel. I have a good damn glad you called. Yep.
It's just so hard to know, and everyone's saying stay,
like all the text, all the things. It's just so
hard to know, like is this a phase or is
this switch off? I think only time will tell.

Speaker 6 (01:03:01):
I think if you're in a marriage, you gotta you
gotta kind of go through it first before you make
such this hard decision, which would be leaving.

Speaker 1 (01:03:09):
Because I mean, you know, maybe he's like if I
just sort of stick around and try not to hurt
her feelings, then that's better than admitting to myself and
to the world that I don't like the new version
of her and I want out, because then that makes
you the bad guy. So you know, that's that would
be My biggest concern is like, are you hanging on
like you you love me or maybe you're in love

(01:03:32):
with me? But like, are you still attracted to me?
And if you're not, how long do we play that game?

Speaker 8 (01:03:35):
Right?

Speaker 6 (01:03:36):
But explore, I say, explore all options before you make
that decision.

Speaker 1 (01:03:39):
Purchases, Yes, purchase, purchases. Caitln's entertainment report is on the
pressure sitting for Kaylen and take it away all right.

Speaker 6 (01:03:50):
Lizzo spoke out after her former dancers drop the fat
shaming allegation from their lawsuit following a judge's finding about
a secret recording and an instagram. Lizzo said the claims
were officially dropped and that the accusers.

Speaker 5 (01:04:04):
Conceded it had no merit in court.

Speaker 6 (01:04:06):
Lizzo insisted there was no evidence that I fired them
because they gained weight, adding that the dancers were fired
for recording her without consent. She emphasized I have never
fired an employee for gaining weight. She says she has
always supported bigger bodies. While calling the moment of relief
after suffering in silence. Lizzo confirmed she is not subtling
and will continue to fight the remaining claim. So good

(01:04:29):
luck with that girl, and fred, I know you touched
on this earlier, but in case you missed it, Nick Reiner,
the son of filmmaker Rob Reiner and Michelle Singer Reiner,
has been arrested and booked on suspicion of murdering his
parents after they were found dead with stab wounds in
their Los Angeles area home. Nick is currently being held
without bail, and according to reports, Rob Reiner and his

(01:04:49):
son reportedly had a very loud argument at a holiday
party hosted by Conan O'Brien. This all happened the night
before Rob and his wife Michelle were killed. Sources say
that Nick was freaking everyone out at the party, acting
crazy and kept asking if people were famous, leading Rob
and Michelle to leave the party. Sadly, the couple was

(01:05:10):
found dead in their Los Angeles home the following day.
So the depths of stunned Hollywood given Rob riders legacy
as a celebrated actor and director behind major films of
the eighties and nineties, and Nick was previously spoken about
in the long struggle with drug addiction, telling People magazine
in twenty sixteen that he had been homeless at times
and in rehab since the age of fifteen.

Speaker 5 (01:05:31):
So such a sad ending to their story twisted. May
they rest in peace.

Speaker 6 (01:05:36):
On a lighter note, some good news for Eminem fans
fifty cents he's a possible eminem collaboration for the soundtrack
of the upcoming Street Fighter movie. Fifty has good reason
to hype up the movie, considering he's playing the boxer
ball Rock. I'm not into the Street Fighter University, but
I'm here for the movie.

Speaker 1 (01:05:53):
Okay, both seen know ye tell me are fighting.

Speaker 5 (01:05:56):

was trying to get her to purchase for Okay.

Speaker 6 (01:06:09):
Bosting on Instagram, fifty road, I'm gonna get Eminem on
deck to make some music for the movie Street Fighter,
adding new music is on the way. The film, which
recently dropped a trailer, features a stacked cast including Jason Mamoa,
Noah Centennial or Reveal Peck and Roman Reigns, and reportedly
has fifty even performing his own stunts.

Speaker 5 (01:06:29):
Okay, fifty, that's your favorite act of Paulina.

Speaker 6 (01:06:33):
But producer, excuse you, but the biggest stunt let me
look get his resume right, But the biggest stunt he
could pull off maybe getting Eminem to drop some custom
music for the film. Street Fighter is scheduled to hit
theaters on October sixteenth, twenty twenty six.

Speaker 5 (01:06:48):
And I will be there with my popcorn.

Speaker 1 (01:06:50):

good morning, Welcome to the program. How are you good
morning program? Huh that sounds serious the program? Yeah, I
saw I say it sometimes, But what's going on with
this guy Noah? We want to help you out on
waiting by the phone. You feel like maybe you're being ghosted?
Tell us kind of everything. How did you guys meet?

(01:19:29):
I want to hear about any dates you've been on,
any details you want to share, and we're going to
try and figure this out.

Speaker 16 (01:19:34):
All right, thank you? So, Yeah, I met Noah through
this indoor volleyball league. We both joined this winter, one
of them, one of the sports like social club companies.

Speaker 1 (01:19:45):
Yeah.

Speaker 16 (01:19:46):
Sure, I just kind of wanted to do something active
being that it was colder outside and not for nothing.
But I heard there were a lot of single men.

Speaker 3 (01:19:54):
There, so why not.

Speaker 1 (01:19:55):
Yeah, people do that like volleyball. Else they have like
softball leads you can sign up for or soccer stuff. Yeah. Yeah,
and it's all just guys is like being active. But
let's face it, people trying to get some.

Speaker 3 (01:20:10):
Yeah, I mean, yeah, fade right, It's all good.

Speaker 1 (01:20:14):
Yeah, I'm a little too lazy for that, but still
I gotta go kick the ball the meats that come.
I mean, like, no, I'm good.

Speaker 13 (01:20:20):
But then you can go you can go to the
trivia meet.

Speaker 4 (01:20:22):
Groups, you know.

Speaker 1 (01:20:23):
I mean you also have to leave the house for that.
But I'm just talking. One day, the doordask driver is
the hottest person I've ever seen, male or female at
this point, just whatever, okay, yeah and j Watson engaging
in his doordas career.

Speaker 16 (01:20:38):
Okay, so you you joined on a door to side note,
have you been getting male names and then a female
shows up or female names and then a male shows
up keeps hopping to this, yes, thank you?

Speaker 1 (01:20:47):
Yeah, that actually makes me a little nervous side note
because it's like, well, who's whose account is this registered?
Like why can't you deliver? Who is the person who
actually is showing it? Yeah?

Speaker 13 (01:20:57):
Act he asked the guy the other day and he
said it was his mom's.

Speaker 1 (01:21:04):
Like why were you? Okay, so you you joined this
league to meet a person, and then what happens?

Speaker 7 (01:21:11):
I meete a person.

Speaker 16 (01:21:12):
I met Noah And it was after a few weeks there,
and we started talking about getting a drink after volleyball,
and we did, and I think it went really well.
So I know it went really well because we planned
a second date, which was more drinks and dinner and
uh again, I see and dinner and that went really
really well. So we went back to his place, we

(01:21:35):
had some fun, and then uh, Noah built the arc
and rode away into the sunset.

Speaker 1 (01:21:41):
Okay, so after two days and a hookup, you never
heard from him again. He never called her to I mean, okay,
and you reached down and it was more.

Speaker 4 (01:21:52):
I'm sorry to cut you off.

Speaker 16 (01:21:53):
It was kind of more of like a fade away.
It wasn't just like a disappear. The messages got shorter
and shorter and then eventually stopped. So I don't know
what the deal is. This was not like a random thing.
We like really got to know each other and then
hooked up. It wasn't like one of those things where
we just kind of hooked up and he disappeared. So
I didn't think this was appropriate time for our fade away.

Speaker 1 (01:22:13):
Huh. All right, Well, and after two dates and all
the rest of it, So here's what we're gonna do.
We're gonna call Noah. In just a second. You'll be
on the phone, Liz at the same time. We're gonna
ask some questions. At some point you're welcome to jump in,
and the hope is that we can straighten it all
out and set you up on another date that we
pay for.

Speaker 3 (01:22:27):
Sound good, awesome, Thank you so much, guys.

Speaker 1 (01:22:29):
Hey, Liz, I'm here. All right, let's call Noah. You guys,
you went on a couple of dates. You met actually
out in the wild at one of those like sort
of sports social things. Right, you guys are being active together,
which is so exciting and which it makes sense. I
see why people you know, meet that way, especially when
it's cold. Some kind of indoor event makes sense. You

(01:22:50):
meet this guy, you go on two dates. The last
date you hooked up, you thought everything was really headed
in one direction. But you have not heard from this
man since then. You feel like he's ghosting you. You
want to know why.

Speaker 13 (01:23:00):
That sums it up pretty well. Thank you?

Speaker 1 (01:23:02):
All right, Well, let's call him now. Good luck, Liz.

Speaker 13 (01:23:04):
Thanks?

Speaker 8 (01:23:10):
Hello?

Speaker 7 (01:23:11):
Hi?

Speaker 1 (01:23:11):
Is this Noah?

Speaker 8 (01:23:14):
Hey?

Speaker 1 (01:23:14):
No Hey, Hi, good morning. My name is Fred. I'm
calling for the Fred's Show, the Morning radio Show, and
I have to tell you that we are on the
radio right now, and I would need your permission to
continue with the call. Can which out for just a second.
You can hang up anytime, Yeah, I guess, yeah, Well
thank you. Noah. We're calling on behalf of a woman
named Liz, who I guess you met. You were playing
sports together the door a volleyball, and you went on

(01:23:37):
a couple of dates. You remember, Liz, I do? Okay,
So she called us that. Oh well, hold on, I
just wanted to tell you where we're at here. She
called us and liked you a lot, told us about
the couple of dates that you guys have been on,
but says that you haven't reached out since. And so
I'm just curious, and maybe you knew what I was
going to ask, But you know, why is that? Are
you ghosting her?

Speaker 8 (01:23:58):
I think it, first of all, this to start here,
it's insane that you guys are calling me, first off,
and secondly, especially for her. Oh she's we We we
did meet playing volleyball. It was great, We got along well,
we went out a few times, we had some fun.
Uh and then you know, uh, you know, something kind
of struck me as wrong the whole time, and I

(01:24:20):
just really couldn't put my finger on it. And then finally,
you know, the night that she stayed over, and we
you know, I kind of put two and two together,
and I realized that, you know, this guy that she's
been talking about all the time, and she talks about
this best friend of hers that she's been best friends
with for you know, for a long time, and uh,

(01:24:42):
all of a sudden, out of nowhere, I put it
together that this best friend of hers is her ex boyfriend.

Speaker 13 (01:24:48):
Now these two spend time together, they go to family.

Speaker 8 (01:24:50):
Things together, They sleep in the same bed at least
once a week together. Like that's, uh, that's not cool
with me.

Speaker 1 (01:24:57):
Okay. So so Noah, you're getting to know is you
guys are going on these dates and she keeps referring
to this best friend of hers and all the different
activities they do together. And I don't know, like if
I guess if it's me and I hear that they're
sleeping in the same bed and they're hanging out constantly
in family stuff. If I'm being really honest, I just
assume it's a gay best friend. If it's a guy,
I mean, it sounds like it sounds like, you know,

(01:25:18):
pretty intimate. If you have if you have a romantic
friend or a male female dynamic. That's like that, I
would assume you would date that person. Well, it turns
out they did. They did date, but they still do
all these things. Eleven years, eleven years and so the
eleven years and it sounds like they're still dating. It
kind of sounds that way. But she describes a man

(01:25:38):
as her ex.

Speaker 13 (01:25:40):
Yeah, so she's got this guy in her life that
does everything with her.

Speaker 1 (01:25:43):
What does she need Noah for? Oh my god, what
does she need Noah for? In the third person, I
would I agree, what does she need Noah for? And
here to answer that question is Liz. I forgot to
mention that Liz is here. Liz, you left Ali the
ex of a living That is a very honest reaction.
You left out the eleven year relationship dude who still

(01:26:05):
sleeps in bed with you once a week. You love
that out?

Speaker 16 (01:26:07):
I mean, I mean, first of all, I can't believe
how insecure no it is. I mean, a girl can't
be close friends with a guy. I mean, first of all, well,
well I have so much to say. I can't even
believe he's freaking out about this. It's so crazy. I mean,
me and me and my ex are not meant to
be together and it's not physical at all, but we'll

(01:26:28):
always love each other.

Speaker 4 (01:26:29):
You know, He's always going to be a staple in
my life. He's my best friend for many years.

Speaker 16 (01:26:32):
And we just we tried the dating thing and it didn't.

Speaker 13 (01:26:35):
It's not for us.

Speaker 16 (01:26:37):
I mean I bet a hundred bucks that that he
would feel differently if Matt Matt my ex if he
was a woman.

Speaker 1 (01:26:45):
All conversations well, I mean honestly, if it was a
woman who you had data for eleven years, I think
the concern would be the same. I mean, what we're talking.

Speaker 3 (01:26:52):
About double standards, I don't think.

Speaker 1 (01:26:55):
So what we're talking about here is a is a
relationship of eleven years that was at one point romantic,
and it sounds like it's everything and you're saying, but
the sex, But it sounds like it's every bit as
intimate as it was. And so another person comes along
and they're like, wait a minute, that would be my job,
and that dude's not going anywhere, and you're talking about
it so openly. I guess I can see the reservations.

Speaker 16 (01:27:18):
I mean, like I just I understand to a degree,
but it's just like something you got to get over.
Like they'll meet, they'll hang out and he'll realize this
guy is not that and he'll realize frun the best friend. Yeah,
the me's going to be in your bed by ten pm?
Because why are you sharing bay?

Speaker 1 (01:27:34):
Yeah, I'm gay and I don't sleep in a bout
with another many of time. Why in your bad at girl?

Speaker 3 (01:27:41):
I mean, you know, struggles for cuddles?

Speaker 7 (01:27:43):
Man?

Speaker 16 (01:27:44):
You know what I mean?

Speaker 1 (01:27:47):
It is physical. In fact, I would argue that's more
intimate than other things that you could do in bed.

Speaker 16 (01:27:53):
I meant live teddy bear, you know. I mean, I've
heard this before.

Speaker 7 (01:27:58):
They well, you can't have sex without the eggs.

Speaker 1 (01:28:02):
But huh, it's it's it's the level of intimacy though.
It's it's the lack of boundaries. Like if I'm a
guy trying to date you, and I can see from
a mile away that there's this other guy who's very
much fulfilling a lot of that role, then I might
ask the same questions like well what am I here for?

Speaker 16 (01:28:23):
But again, like if it was a female, even if
we dated, if it was a female and we were
laying in bed together and going out and playing vollemea,
doing all these things together, then nobody would have anything
to say about it.

Speaker 1 (01:28:33):
I could honestly tell you that the differentiating factor is
the fact that you were romantic. And I know that
you'd think I'm bsing you as a guy, as a
straight dude. But if I dated a woman or met
a woman and found out that she was she spent
that much time and had that much level of intimacy
and that level of closeness with a woman who she
used to date, that would concern me too. I don't

(01:28:54):
care if it's a man or a woman. It's more
what are you gonna like? Why is this other person?
Why there are no boundaries?

Speaker 16 (01:29:01):
That's that's an it's my best friend. I mean, if
she wants to be my best friend and bought my
best friend out of the picture, I just think that
just sounds jealous and possessive and insecure, and you'd be
missing out on a great.

Speaker 1 (01:29:13):
Best friends that don't cuddle with you in bed at
night once a week, I'm told.

Speaker 7 (01:29:16):
I mean, it's literally like sleeping with my dog.

Speaker 5 (01:29:26):
I mean, I did not date my dog for eleven years.

Speaker 3 (01:29:33):
You know I cuddle with my dog, but did not.

Speaker 1 (01:29:36):
Yeah, it's also a dog. It's not a human being
who you went slept with and and and I mean
your family.

Speaker 13 (01:29:43):
Yeah, once with many.

Speaker 16 (01:29:45):
Many many years ago, and he's still friends with my
family and they love him. And it's like, yeah, I mean,
I just I don't get it.

Speaker 1 (01:29:51):
And I guess I'm just surprisedly is that you can't
see even though you clearly understand this and feel comfortable
with it. I guess I'm surprised you can't, you know,
sort of put the shoe on the other foot and say,
would you like it if Noah had this woman in
bed with him when he was texting you And it's
not an intimate, it's not sexual, but but there's a
woman who sleeps in bed with him. It's not you.

Speaker 16 (01:30:10):
Yeah, I mean, I guess I can see your point,
but I feel like, I don't know. I feel I'm
a little more open minded in this field. I guess
a lot of people have an issue with it.

Speaker 3 (01:30:19):
So I don't know.

Speaker 1 (01:30:21):
I don't know, all right, So the guys go.

Speaker 7 (01:30:24):
About this right too.

Speaker 16 (01:30:26):
I don't know if it would ever work out if
Matt knew that you didn't approve anyway.

Speaker 1 (01:30:29):
So no, so Matt, Matt gets the best friend, gets
to make the decision. Then so we ask Matt.

Speaker 16 (01:30:35):
Well, he didn't get to make the decision, but he gets.

Speaker 1 (01:30:37):
A vote in who you date my best friend? Oh boy,
your ex boyfriend gets a vote in who you date next? Well,
he's in bed with you. Look. I mean, if it
works for you, that's fine, but you got to realize
it's not going to work for a lot of other Yeah. Okay,
Well anyway, look, I'll ask the question, Noah, do you
want to try again? Maybe Matt'll come. Maybe you could

(01:30:59):
beat Mad the interview prize, go through the interview process,
pull for my body. Oh, be more clear. Wow, that's aggressive.
That's okay. So that's a no for Noah. All right, Liz, look,
I wish you the best of locked. Sounds like you
had a great friendship, and I hope that you can
find somebody who's comfortable with all of Okay, Noah, we
got we've heard enough from you. Let's let's just hope, lizeny. Yeah,

(01:31:25):
is going to be weird. Now, it's going to be strange.
All right, guys, find.

Speaker 4 (01:31:29):
Another place to play.

Speaker 1 (01:31:30):
It's cool, all right, Thank you both for your ands.
I invested luck for both of you. Entertainment report is
on the I don't want to argue with you. I'm
just trying to help you understand why your your point
of view is not really accurate because and the best
part is I told her she was kind of right too.
But I mean, you go ahead and hate me. I'm

(01:31:51):
a terrible I'm a terrible human. Go ahead, and Kiki,
I'm going to take it human. I'm guaranteed human. I'm
going to take a two week nap, you guys, because
I just I just can't wip this. I just can
with stuff like this, you guys, like, I tried the
very best I can. But I'm not a liar of
a lot of things that aren't good. I'm not a liar.

Speaker 5 (01:32:08):
It'll be all right, baby, all right. They get some
love we love for the room.

Speaker 6 (01:32:12):
There are reports swirling that Megan Fox and Machine Gun
Kelly are currently spinning the block and giving their relationship
another try while co parenting their daughter, Saga Blade, born
in March of twenty twenty five. Sources say they've been
acting like a couple at times, but without publicly making
it official again. Since they're messy split in late twenty
twenty four, they've been focusing on family life and putting

(01:32:34):
their child first. Despite past intense romance and engagement, they
recently spent Thanksgiving together, showing a much happier collaborative dynamic
with Machine Gun Kelly working on himself and being being
a supportive father.

Speaker 1 (01:32:47):
So I love that for them.

Speaker 6 (01:32:48):
Hopefully it works out for the best. Now, Fred, this

The Fread Show is on Fread's Fun Fact Fred fun

(01:36:28):
so much this? Okay? Did you know that in Japan
a major Christmas apparently, a major Christmas tradition is eating KFC?

Speaker 4 (01:36:41):
What so?

Speaker 1 (01:36:42):
It started from a nineteen seventies advertising campaign called Kentucky
for Christmas. Apparently Now KFC is so popular on Christmas
Day in Japan that you have to reserve a bucket
weeks in advance.

Speaker 6 (01:36:55):
That makes sense because I always see KFC in random
locations around the world, Like I don't see other restaurants there,
but I always see a KFC.

Speaker 1 (01:37:03):
There's always a McDonald's, it seems, Yeah, the KFC.

Speaker 6 (01:37:06):
It's always like I was in the Where's Rihanna from? Yeah,
and the only restaurant they had was.

Speaker 5 (01:37:12):
Like a KFC.

Speaker 1 (01:37:13):
Yeah. When I went to the Bahamas for for for Thanksgiving,
my parents were there and uh and landlow popp pup
plane in the Bahamas and a guy landed in front
of me and he gets out of a plane. He
was like a regular on this place. And he gets
out and he hands the guys that work at the
airport like two huge buckets of KFC and they treated
him like gold. I looked at him and I was like,
I don't know you, but that would have been a
nice thing for me to know the way I had

(01:37:35):
a time that in Duncan. People around the world are
when I went to Cuba, people were getting on the
plane Cubans going back to Cuba. We're getting on the
plane with just stacks of Dunkin donuts.

Speaker 5 (01:37:44):
Really, yeah, It's like a delicacy every morning, Like I
have to have it so I get it.

Speaker 1 (01:37:48):
They are good. Yeah, I mean I am. Every morning
I walk in with a donut and a chicken leg. Man,
I'm just just gnawing away and people are like why.

you guys do it. The stars of the show Love
but Deer blog.

Speaker 11 (01:38:53):
I have.

Speaker 1 (01:38:53):
I have a new It's really not new. It's just
an anxiety that I think has been heightened lately. Jason,
you and I have been traveling a lot lately, all
over the all over the land. Yeah, the Continental Unity.
Yeah yeah, yeah exactly. And I have a new thing.
It's and maybe it's been there for a long time.
I'm just realizing it because I've I've been on you know,
commercial airplanes now, like for I don't know, five times,

(01:39:14):
six times in the last ten days. Yeah, but I
know what's in my bag, like harry on bag, right,
I know what's in it. Nothing is in it that
shouldn't be there. But I have this fear now. I
start to like actually sweat in my under arms when
I put the bag on the conveyor in TSA and
I stand there waiting for them to like pull me

(01:39:36):
aside and arrest me, like I'm convinced that I forgot
that I had an uzi right, Like I'm a seti, right,
I forgot about my uzi in the bag. And then
they're gonna like they're gonna be like sir, and then
they're gonna pull me aside and be like what is
this What is this sword doing in here? And I'll
be like, I forgot. I don't know why I was

(01:39:58):
storing it there. I don't know why I was storing
my sword there, and I forgot to take it out,
and they're like, You're going to jail forever. Although it's
just new fear I have every time, and I don't know,
I don't know where I mean because usually have fly
little putt pup plane that I fly, so whatever, I
can bring my sword if I want to, no one's
gonna stop me. Or I check a bag and then whatever.
But really it's like did I leave a razor in

(01:40:19):
the thing? And I'm gonna be very embarrassed. But then
I start to think in my head, like what if
I did put a sword in there? And I just
forgot I out of body put a sword in my bag,
And then I'm gonna get yelled at and I'm gonna
be embarrassed, and then they're gonna like make so I
I might take away my global entry and I can't
fly anymore ever again. And I go through this whole
scenario every time, or even walking through the metal detector,

(01:40:41):
I'm like, did I forget about something?

Speaker 11 (01:40:45):
You know?

Speaker 7 (01:40:46):
Right?

Speaker 8 (01:40:46):
Real?

Speaker 5 (01:40:47):
That is such a real thing.

Speaker 6 (01:40:48):
And for me it's always disappointing because the only thing
they ever find is a water bottle. For some reason,
I never think about the water bottle that I'm taking through.

Speaker 5 (01:40:55):
But they act to get a weapon.

Speaker 3 (01:40:57):
Yeah, I'm like, ma'am sir, like I just forgot my water,
that's it, Like I didn't throw it away, But they
get very upset about the water.

Speaker 5 (01:41:03):
I think, imagine when they find your UZI.

Speaker 1 (01:41:05):
They're gonna be very upset. Well, you're the one that
mentioned uzzy. So I think I think I told the
story before. But I went to Salt Lake City this
year and uh, and I was like going through a
security and we were there for a while, so I
had a big bag. I checked it and I got
my backpack. My backpack is so heavy, like why is
it back? And I didn't even whatever. So I go
through the security and then of course they go bomb
I think gets pulled out. You know, they pull the

(01:41:26):
bag out like circause is your bag? I'm like yes,
two of them, two people like can we speak to
you for a minute. I'm like okay. And the guy
looks at me like because he saw on the screen
what it was, and he looks at me like really,
and he pulls out the world's largest smart you know,
the smart what is it? Smart water? Like you're like
eight feet tall bottles, they're like seven feet tall these.

(01:41:47):
He pulls it out of my backpack and like it's
like they weigh like five pounds. And he looks at
me like really, like you didn't know this was in
there and I'm like, oh, dude, I'm so sorry. I'm like,
I honestly didn't know, but I was like slept in
my bag. I had a gallon of water in the
bag and I forgot and then I was like, I
don't know. It's unopen, Like it's like I think I
paid seventeen dollars for this at the hotel. Do you

(01:42:09):
want it? He's like, we have to throw all this
stuff away. But I mean, this is my new fear now,
it's real.

Speaker 5 (01:42:15):
I feel you.

Speaker 1 (01:42:15):
I'm gonna wind up in breakers. They're gonna lock me
up forever, and I'll never be able to fly off
the walk everywhere.

Speaker 5 (01:42:22):
Weapons at home.

Speaker 1 (01:42:25):
We'll make sure I leave it loosy at home for
how long
