Speaker 1 (00:00):
The Fresh Show is on. I know that you were
sitting around thinking about my side hustle as a as
a kid, as a teenager. As you know, I was
a web designer, big time web designer in the in
the late nineties. I had really no idea, no idea

(00:20):
how to do it whatsoever.

Speaker 2 (00:21):
I had.

Speaker 1 (00:22):
I literally had that book that says web pages for dummies,
you know the ones I don't even know they still
make those books, yellow, Yellow, Living Out Dummy for everything,
you know whatever. I honestly used that book to sell
a web page to one person in high school because
my dad told me to, because he's an entrepreneur and
he was like, figure out how to make some money

(00:42):
for yourself. And I guess that was my side host
So that of course, And I'm going to esteemed alumnus
of the Blockbuster Video Mega franchise. It was, you know, basically,
I was, I'm part of the culture. What was the culture?

Speaker 2 (00:56):
You know?

Speaker 1 (00:57):
He really was BBB Yeah, bb again.

Speaker 3 (01:02):
Mob.

Speaker 1 (01:03):
It was a little different than the Mob. We all
wear the same blue shirts BBB.

Speaker 4 (01:08):
I have that BBL. That's what I have.

Speaker 5 (01:11):
I want to be clear anyway then, sorry, So anyway,
what was.

Speaker 1 (01:21):
You you were talking about your side hustle though, and
this is way better than mine.

Speaker 4 (01:26):
Oh yeah, it's a proud moment of mine. Of course.
I think it's kind of how I got started in
just the hustle culture.

Speaker 1 (01:31):
We will.

Speaker 6 (01:33):
So we're watching that movie Flame and Hat that just
came out, and we were watching it, and in the
movie The Little Boy, he started slaying to Molly's at
school to his friends, and and my fiance Habey goes,
whoa like hustler. You know, it was like all phase
by it, and I was like, oh, that's nothing, And
I was like, when I was about eighth.

Speaker 4 (01:48):
Grade is when it started.

Speaker 6 (01:49):
At same I used to take my step dads and
my mom's cigarettes cretes. You guys, I can't say cigarettes,
says she says them.

Speaker 1 (02:00):
Wait, I've never heard you say. You're you're serious dead?

Speaker 4 (02:02):
Ask cigarettes cigarettes.

Speaker 1 (02:04):
Cigarettes, brits Hire syllables.

Speaker 4 (02:10):
Cigarettes, don't say a pack of SIGs, okay. I would
take the thigs and I would.

Speaker 5 (02:16):
I would sell up to kids like not kids, I'm like,
are you still doing this?

Speaker 1 (02:23):
Are you the person like, hey, ma'am, can you get
me a six pack of beer? You know, from the
high school kid when you're rolling.

Speaker 4 (02:28):
In, like, are you handing out cancer to kids?

Speaker 2 (02:30):
You?

Speaker 1 (02:30):
This is what you're doing now, I wouldn't. I mean,
I know that we pay everybody more, but seriously, like
we're selling cigarettes to kids now?

Speaker 6 (02:38):
No, I mean some days it might, I might want
to do that, but I will never I want.

Speaker 1 (02:42):
To do that. How old were you when you were
doing this?

Speaker 4 (02:44):
I was about twelve, twelve years old.

Speaker 1 (02:46):
You steal your parents cigarettes, yes, I would, and you
sell them to your your peers, my peers.

Speaker 6 (02:51):
Yes, because it was like I was the plug and
I had it because it was.

Speaker 4 (02:54):
A lot at the house, so we're all addicted.

Speaker 3 (02:55):
I got it because I probably thought, I was saying,
because you're selling them cigarettes, I'm pretty.

Speaker 1 (03:03):
Sure I wouldn't buy what you were selling it.

Speaker 4 (03:06):
I had the good stuff at home, Okay, I had options.

Speaker 1 (03:08):
Oh you didn't.

Speaker 4 (03:09):
Yeah, were the options you remember?

Speaker 6 (03:11):
Yes, Marble lights, Marble I can't say it, Marble lights,
and then Salem slim lights of course.

Speaker 4 (03:16):
Okay, yeah, those were those two, and then the green pack.

Speaker 6 (03:20):
And then when times got tougher, I would take the
four for a dollar, you know, because at the time
it was four four dollar chips, which all the good
old days, I know. So I would sell them for
a dollar each and kids would pay it because they
want the chips on the spot, you know what I'm saying.
So twenty five cents urn into a dollar, right, Wow,
they paid for convenience.

Speaker 1 (03:35):
A hustler from the earliest age, I think, so entrepreneur.

Speaker 4 (03:38):
I like to say I was.

Speaker 1 (03:39):
No, I like it. I gotta be honest. I don't
really love the cigarettes partan.

Speaker 4 (03:43):
No, I don't love it.

Speaker 2 (03:44):
Ye.

Speaker 1 (03:44):
I'm afraid of that word because I just don't want
it to come out. I don't know what. I'm not
going to do that anymore. And like many things, I'll
probably say that. There are so many words I have
to think about now before they come out of my
mouth because of you, because I'm not sure if I'm
the one saying it wrong.

Speaker 4 (03:58):
Yeah.

Speaker 7 (03:58):
Oh, my whole vocabulary is messed up on a hustle
that was not as dangerous for kids.

Speaker 4 (04:04):
Oh that's good if you guys are interested.

Speaker 1 (04:06):
Yeah, no, I'd love to hear about the not dangerous hustle.

Speaker 7 (04:08):
So you like golf tours will come to town, and yeah,
parking can be nuts, oh.

Speaker 1 (04:15):
Like PGA, like Tiger Woods or whatever.

Speaker 7 (04:17):
One of those tours was at like a bougie country
club in Michigan. And so my friend and I in
high school rode on my car with one of those
car markers that we would drive people into the tour.

Speaker 1 (04:29):
From the parking that was far away.

Speaker 4 (04:30):
Yeah, because it was very far away.

Speaker 1 (04:32):
So that's uhober over.

Speaker 4 (04:34):
Here, yeah uber Yeah, and we the ingenuity here. Yeah.

Speaker 7 (04:38):
I loved get a ton of cash and we were
basically doing uber and lyft in high school.

Speaker 1 (04:42):
Wow, so you invented it basically, Well, I wouldn't say that.

Speaker 4 (04:45):
It kind of sounds like it now.

Speaker 8 (04:48):
Three.

Speaker 1 (04:49):
I don't have a ton of time to call now,
or you can text the same number. But what was
your side hustle as a kid, Rufio? Obviously you had
several too. He went to jail for a couple of years.

Speaker 2 (04:57):
Well, mine was also in like middle school, like seventh
to eighth grade. I was taking I was selling candy
out of my backpack every day. It was selling EM
and MS. Don't ask me how I got the M
and MS stole. I was selling it for a dollar
walking around. I used to wear my backpack in the front,
Like you know what I'm saying, Like, oh, and then
I would just reach into my pocket.

Speaker 1 (05:18):
I had peanut and plane. I get em and Emmy,
and they were a dollar. And that's what I did.

Speaker 2 (05:23):
My other hustle I did was I'm pretty good at
I'm a huge Michael Jordan fan, right, the biggest, And
I could sign that man's autograph like nothing.

Speaker 1 (05:33):
And I was selling.

Speaker 2 (05:35):
Cards the kids for like twenty five dollars car like
a you know, like a Fleer card that's like probably
like less than a dollar. And I would just sign
it and put it in the sleep and then sell
it to a random kid for twenty five bucks.

Speaker 4 (05:47):
Yeah he believed you.

Speaker 1 (05:49):
Yeah, I had an autographed Michael Jordan card. Oh my god.
And then I would just so there are people out
there that think they have an autograph card that you
that you forged. Yeah, I could sign it right now.
I could sign anything you want for my car. They're
gonna go on pond starts and be like, Yeah, this
guy Kevin in high school, he was so generous. It
was such a good deal.

Speaker 2 (06:07):
It's Michael Jordan sting that you did. The one thing
that stands out the m Yeah, like it looks like
a twenty three dude, I got that I got my
mom's autograph down, and I got my.

Speaker 4 (06:22):
I needed to get out of school somehow.

Speaker 1 (06:23):
Oh yeah, I remember. I used to try and and
this wasn't a hustle like you remember. And again just
gonna make us sound old, but collected the basketball cards.
And then they had the becket and it's online now,
but it came out like whatever weekly or monthly, and
it had the prices of all the cards, and I
would sell. I would pull cards, buy a lot of them,

(06:44):
and then I would sell them to people based on
whatever that price was. And parents would call my house
and be like to my parents, Christopher selling you know,
ripping my kid off or whatever, because I guess in
many people's minds it was trading. You were supposed to
just trade card for card. It's like, no, this is
you know how much that patch? My parents would be like, no,
you just have to give them away, like this us money,

(07:07):
but it's supposed to be sports card training. It's like, no,
some are worth more than others, Like you don't just
give this stuff away. I can remember more than once
my mom would come in the room be like, someone's
complaining that you're selling your basketball cards again. I'm like
but mom, that's what there there's no mark up. I'm
not selling fake autograms like my friend Rufi over here,
Pizza Pad, what's up, Pizza Pad? Morning friend, Pizza Pad

(07:33):
your your hustle? And was his high school?

Speaker 9 (07:37):
Yeah, so it was started sophomore year high school. Went
to the home depot. I'm like twenty six in Cicero
and there was all like the like the migrant workers
out there, and I asked them, you know where they
got their you know, their IDs from, and they gave
me one of the guy's numbers and it was thirty
bucks for them to make the ID. All you had

(08:00):
to provide them was a picture and the info you
wanted on it. So I took that and went back
to my high school and just offered it to everybody
for one hundred and twenty. So I was making one
hundred dollars on everyone.

Speaker 1 (08:13):
So you were you were the middleman committing a federal crime.
Basically innovatives here. Yeah, Pizza Pat won't be hard to find.
That's not a distinctive name or anything that. Okay, I mean,
you know, it's I hate to say it's smart, but
he was smart. Yeah, thank you. Pizza Pat had a
good date.

Speaker 9 (08:34):
It was a revolving door of clients.

Speaker 1 (08:37):
Dude, he must have made a ton, you must How
much money do you think you made doing this?

Speaker 9 (08:41):
All? Right? So at one point, not can you? I
had to call uh my cousin who was a police officer,
to come with me. So I thought I was gonna
get robbed.

Speaker 2 (08:50):
Uh.

Speaker 9 (08:51):
At one point I had like nine thousand dollars in
cash from all the ideatails.

Speaker 1 (08:56):
Wow, I mean still right. Kiki's are going to home
depot today. Thank you, pizza, Pat, have a good days
middle school?

Speaker 4 (09:08):
What's that.

Speaker 1 (09:11):
Plug?

Speaker 10 (09:11):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (09:12):
Oh my god? Hey Matt, Hey, how you doing? Matt?
What was your your hustle? When was it and what
was it?

Speaker 11 (09:20):
So this was back in two thousand and four, two
thousand and five. I used to sell my leftover live
FFA chickens down in Houston, Texas.

Speaker 1 (09:29):
What is the future farmers of America?

Speaker 12 (09:31):
Is?

Speaker 1 (09:31):
How what FFA is? Right?

Speaker 2 (09:33):
Right?

Speaker 1 (09:34):
So you raised chickens like at the house, I hadn't
at the barn. Yeah yeah okay, And then you would
bring them to school and what would people do with
They'd take them home and eat them or what would
they do?

Speaker 13 (09:45):
Boy?

Speaker 2 (09:46):
Yeah?

Speaker 11 (09:46):
Their parents, their parents would come pick them up five
dollars a chicken. They'd take them home and eat them
or do whatever they wanted. But it was quick and
easy cash for me.

Speaker 1 (09:53):
Oh oh wow, okay, was expecting that. Thank you, Matt,
have a good day. Okay. Chickens. Why did you think
of that? Rufio? Yeah, no, none of my I don't
have I'm not equipped for that.

Speaker 14 (10:10):
No, you don't know anything about Wow, well, well she
will be in a parking lot of home.

Speaker 1 (10:18):
Depoil a little bit, but selling chickens and fakes. What
was yours?

Speaker 15 (10:22):
I'm definitely doing that. But mine's was a security business.
I ran a security business in school.

Speaker 10 (10:27):
Yeah.

Speaker 15 (10:27):
My brother was like one of the tough kids, and
I would be like, you know, if you want to
pay for security services, then you pay us. He'll secure
you and make sure no bullies mess with you. And
it worked out very well. We were very paid. How
old were you about eleven?

Speaker 1 (10:41):
And so you'd say, look, no one will give you
a hard time about anything if you get how much money.

Speaker 4 (10:47):
I'm scared to say this.

Speaker 15 (10:48):
One kid his parents must have kept only cash in
the house because he was giving us like hundreds of dollars.

Speaker 1 (10:54):
Wow. He never got beaten up.

Speaker 4 (10:55):
Never got beaten up. He kept the bullies off of.

Speaker 1 (10:57):
Here Kiki's personal security. The Fread Show is on Good
Morning on the radio and the iHeart app anytime search
for the Fred Show on demand. I'm the most interested.
Why wouldn't even say that I'm interested in this moment?
In what Kiki believes that people are pretending to enjoy? Yes,

(11:18):
what is it? What's your theory?

Speaker 15 (11:20):
Well, obviously I feel like people who run are very
much pretending that they enjoy this.

Speaker 1 (11:27):
I wish I did. Yeah, yeah, oh, I wish I
were a runner, a star.

Speaker 4 (11:31):
People who like work out, they are pretending. Cheese are pretending.
You are pretending.

Speaker 1 (11:44):
Delicious. Cheese is so good.

Speaker 4 (11:49):
It's so good.

Speaker 1 (11:50):
Have tender ones. You won't like blue cheese anymore. I
don't don't ruin it for me. I don't sometimes I
don't need to know. Yes, I don't need the blue
cheese is delicious.

Speaker 4 (11:58):
I just want to toention.

Speaker 15 (12:00):
And all my girls that like all my friends, okay,
not you know her friends. I'm gonna get smoke for
this anyway, but the women that I know who pretend
like they enjoy football, it stresses me out, like you do.

Speaker 4 (12:14):
Not like this because I can't figure out how to
like me.

Speaker 15 (12:16):
What is going on? What's happening? Why is the ball
down here? Why are people jumping on each other?

Speaker 4 (12:21):
I just don't understand. So I feel like women's friends.
You don't, it's out. No, you don't like blue cheese,
and I don't like football?

Speaker 1 (12:31):
All right, fine, so you can text and call the
same number eight five five five nine one three five.
What are we all pretending to enjoy.

Speaker 7 (12:39):
Highap on pizza? You guys are pretending that's ridiculous. Warm
fruit on pizza. That's disgusting.

Speaker 1 (12:44):
That is gross.

Speaker 2 (12:45):
I will admit it's not eat add over blue cheese
any day of the week.

Speaker 1 (12:49):
Hell no, I'm shook that you don't like blue cheese.

Speaker 4 (12:51):
You like everything it's mold.

Speaker 1 (12:53):
It's mold, the lie and mold. O do you I do.

Speaker 2 (13:03):
Like if the bread is like the day expired, I'll look,
you know, i'd aud.

Speaker 1 (13:10):
Have you ever eaten a dry age steak that was
at one? They cut all the mold off it then
cook it. I don't know, is it under fifty dollars?
If it is, then you know do they sell that out?

Speaker 4 (13:19):
But they cut mold off steak?

Speaker 1 (13:23):
Yeah, when they dry age of steak, it just sits out.

Speaker 4 (13:26):
What is a dry age steak?

Speaker 16 (13:27):
Not?

Speaker 4 (13:27):
Okay?

Speaker 1 (13:29):
Well because it like like I use, someone's going to
have to explain it to me better. But like if
they dry aged, then I guess it sort of. It
almost dehydrates a little bit so that the taste is
more intense, but then it collects like a healthy mold
on the outside. They cut all that off, then they
cut the steak. I mean, I I think I have
this right. Cut off the mold. Okay, but it was

(13:50):
once molding, not the whole thing.

Speaker 4 (13:52):
Do you eat it warm then? Or do you you
cook it?

Speaker 1 (13:55):
No? No, no, no, they still cook it.

Speaker 4 (13:56):
It's still raw, I mean much from our fungus.

Speaker 6 (13:59):
Oh I love you eat mushrooms, Yeah, Jason, real quick
mush Well.

Speaker 1 (14:06):
There you go. That's no different. Hey Taylor, good morning.
A fungus in a mold, that's the same thing. In
my opinion, is tailor. Why do people pretend to like
that they don't really like?

Speaker 4 (14:21):
Nobody likes frozen yogurt. It's disgusting.

Speaker 1 (14:24):
Who's buying If there's a real cookies and cookie dough
and you know whatever, put.

Speaker 2 (14:31):
Some other stuff in there right, Wow, can't do it
like a flavored frozen yogurt.

Speaker 6 (14:39):
You can't go for like akayast like sadness.

Speaker 9 (14:44):
It's like that.

Speaker 1 (14:46):
It tastes like sadness. All that sadness in my mouth.
That's a good weekend for me trying to pour my sadness.
Can you eat soft syrved learned?

Speaker 2 (15:00):
No?

Speaker 4 (15:01):
Yeah, I don't.

Speaker 1 (15:03):
I mean it's a little different, but it's not a
lot different. I guess yogurt has a tang to it
that soft serve doesn't.

Speaker 13 (15:08):
But anyway, that creaminess of it, I don't know something
about it.

Speaker 9 (15:12):
Man, I can't do it.

Speaker 1 (15:13):
Okay, all right, Well it tastes like eating sadness. Have
a good day, well, I mean Kendle high Kendle.

Speaker 15 (15:26):
Good morning.

Speaker 1 (15:27):
But do people really pretend to like what do you?
What is your claim? People pretend to like.

Speaker 3 (15:33):
Diet?

Speaker 1 (15:34):
I don't think anyone they.

Speaker 10 (15:37):
Think they have the new fan.

Speaker 4 (15:39):
I think that their diet is the best one.

Speaker 13 (15:41):
They think it's great.

Speaker 1 (15:43):
Die I would agree. Everyone wants to brag about the
diet that they're on that basically requires them to do
nothing to lose weight. That's what it is. Where everyone's
looking for the way to have to do nothing to
look good. That's what everyone's looking for. Like if you
go on TikTok or any of these things and you
started scrolling through, like, that's what everyone everyone's trying to

(16:05):
crack the code on. How do I not run marathons
and lift weights and do what is that exercise? I
can't stand burpies? How do I not do burpies but
still look good? That's what everyone's searching for, the way
to not have to work out and not have to
not eat hamburgers and look good. But I agree with
you on that, Kendall, Thank you so much. Have a

(16:26):
good day. People will be like, love you to oh
go keto. All you eat is meat and cheese all day.
It's great, is it?

Speaker 2 (16:34):
Though?

Speaker 4 (16:35):
Not for your heart? No, not for the heart, but
it works for the body. But a diet where you
can eat a block of cream cheese and call it
a meal, that's wild.

Speaker 1 (16:40):
But like even I, I enjoy a block of cream cheese,
cream cheese every now and again with a side of
a bagel every day. But every now and again even me,
like last night, I'm like, can I get a leaf somewhere?
I need a leaf? I need something that grew in
the ground. I'm not sure what I wand up eating well, pizza,
so I didn't get it, but I did there was

(17:01):
there olives on the pizza that grew up on a tree,
so that was good. But I mean, even like I
don't know the people talk you your breath is. I
know people who have done this thing where all they
eat is the meat that try and get going to
ketosis or whatever, and your body eats itself and like
your breath is terrible and it can't feel good. Yeah,
I don't know. Hey, Jessica, Hi Jessica, Hey, good morning.

(17:25):
Everyone's pretending to like this, but no one really likes.

Speaker 13 (17:28):
It being vegan.

Speaker 1 (17:35):
Yes, girl, everyone is pretending to like being vegan. But
knowing you know, I will tell you something about being
vegan and vegetarian and a lot of other things that
are maybe not necessarily dietary restriction related. Is people love
to tell you they are like everyone like it's one
you want to be. Yeah, right, Jessica, If you want

(17:57):
to be a vegan, that's wonderful be a vegan. But
like peep, certain certain dietary choices we all get to
hear about it. You know what I mean like it's
it's almost like you're right, it's almost more about the
cloud than it is about whatever it's doing for your
body or the world.

Speaker 10 (18:12):
Yeah, oh absolutely, I mean who what cycle paths doesn't
want to eat?

Speaker 1 (18:18):
All?

Speaker 13 (18:19):
Well?

Speaker 1 (18:20):
Well, amen with the occasional leaf, I mean wrap the
cheese in like a nice leaf of some kind, just
every now and again. Thank you, Jessica, have a good day.
I'm glad you called. Oh this is so dead on,
hey Scott, Scott, I'm true. Words have never been spoken
on this show. People are pretending to like what.

Speaker 13 (18:41):
I know, this is going to hit a heart string.
But Fast and the serious.

Speaker 1 (18:44):
Yeah, no one really likes going to those movies. No
one really wants to sit through three Office proves you wrong, man,
But nobody really wants to go to that. They don't
go to the theater and go, oh, I can't wait
for number eleven. It's the same thing the first one.

Speaker 2 (19:00):
It's it's simply not after like after Fast five, it
really changed. They win to Underwater, they win the submarine.
Space is the last one. I'm like, it's all it's
all not there's.

Speaker 1 (19:13):
A standum comedian who says this, but like once your
TV show goes to space, yeah like or underwater like
it's over like yeah, which it's done once we go
to the shark, or yeah, jump the shark, once we
go into space. We've gone too far, like, we've now
made it so unrealistic that we have got nothing left.
We've gone as far away from the Earth as we
can go. There's no going back. I agree with you, Scott,

(19:35):
thank you, thank you. How you doing the French show?
Everyone's just pretending to like the show, right, Well, God
bless you. I'm fine with that. Pretend away.

Speaker 4 (19:48):
I'll take it.

Speaker 1 (19:49):
Yeah, I mean, I tell you guys to lie all
the time and tell other people to listen. I meanli,
I don't care. It's finely me as long as you're there.
Cottage cheese, I agree, cottage.

Speaker 4 (19:58):
I agree.

Speaker 1 (19:59):
It might taste okay, but the texture really throws me off.
It can't be right. What's the difference between kurdled anything
and cottage cheese? I don't know, but I like it, oh,
my lord, one hundred percent, my lord. And if you
don't know about my lord, it is a It is,
for some reason, a uniquely Chicago liqueur made from warm wood,

(20:21):
which is discussing and it tastes awful. It's just not good.
And people will try and tell you, oh I like it,
I like it, Oh I choose to or no you no,
you don't. You get it because everyone because when you
order it, you get attention. And there are a lot
of you out there. Because I was in I was
in Nashville not that long ago, in a place called

(20:43):
he was a red door was name in the place
and it was a Chicago bar Lo and behold dive
bar And the lady was like, I sell so much
of this stuff, like so we know the owner charmaine
Che Distillery, and even he's like, I don't know, but
he sells like hundreds of the thousands of bottles of
it every year.

Speaker 4 (21:01):
We ate like the root thing to warm one bite.
I remember you did want to.

Speaker 1 (21:06):
So I did do it, and I hated every second
of it. But I agree with my lord. Yeah, people
don't really want they don't really wanted to drink, my lord.
They just want you to be like, oh my god,
you drink. And it's a whole conversation that people like that.
It tastes like water was left in my shoe. For
a while, I could taste the whatever I'm like, good

(21:27):
out of here. Bro. Yeah yeah, let me see here.
What are we trying to pretend we enjoy life? Let
me see what else I'm going here. People talk about running,
and that was where this all started, was people pretend
to like running. People talk about this runners high that
you get if you run long enough, but you eventually

(21:50):
like feel like you're I don't know, like floating or something.
I've never ever ever felt that. I only feel like
I'm going to vomit or like I'm quit as a
human because I really can't run that far without stopping. Yeah,
if there's no ball involved, I'm you got to trick
me with a ball of some kind, like either throw
the ball, I have to go catch it like a
dog or like a basketball you mean, because no, I'm not,

(22:13):
But I wish. I wish I were a runner, because
first of all, people who run when they got bad knees,
but they are always they always look pretty skinny, and
they'll all you gotta do is take your shoes anywhere
in the world. You just run, just run. You're looking
at stuff. You're running, You're like burning calories. And most
people start their day with that, and then they can
go and be whatever they want all day because their
metabolism's going crazy. But not me. No, not black coffee.

(22:38):
I like black coffee. Seafood some people just want to
be bougie. No, I love seafood. Is delicious, Eat that
all day. Mochi or boba tea. Yeah, both of those
things are delicious. I object fred. I love cottage sheees,
especially the texture.

Speaker 4 (23:02):
Sardines. I feel like sardines are disgusting and you guys
are gross.

Speaker 1 (23:06):
The seafood thing, it just depends on the seafood, right.
You know, I had a bad night with with an oyster.
I remember, and I can't eat them anymore. It's really
too bad. But then again, the truth be told. An oyster,
it really it just tastes like sea water and whatever
you pour on top of it. Right, So, really, an
oyster doesn't taste like anything. It can only taste bad,

(23:29):
like an oyster is only gonna be The best case
scenario is that you drank salt water with some hot
sauce and Hordish on it cheese. That's world, right, Well,
ones have a little bit of different texture. That's the
best case scenario with an oyster.

Speaker 15 (23:44):
Ye.

Speaker 1 (23:45):
So basically, let me put some. I'm gonna what I'm
gonna do is I'm gonna take some shoot up gum.
I'm gonna put it in a shell. I'm gonna pour
salt water on top of it and hot sauce, and
I'm gonna make you blindfold people who like oysters, and
then I'm also gonna give you a real oyster, and
you're not gonna tell the difference. You won't know the difference.

Speaker 4 (24:01):
You just convinced me. I don't like oysters anymore.

Speaker 1 (24:03):
I'm sorry, but I had one bad oyster one day
and I was sick for like three days, and I
never again.

Speaker 17 (24:09):
I can't do crunched on the sand in a scallop.
That was my last scallop I ever ate. Yeah, I
get that doesn't bother me percent. That almost makes me
feel like it was like really in the sand.

Speaker 4 (24:20):
It was, and I'm eating sand. I love scallops.

Speaker 1 (24:23):
I don't know. I'm not going to tell any more
gross seafood stories. But seafood. Seafood is hit or miss
it shady, Shady seafood is shady. It depends, It does
depend that seafood is. I don't mess with it. Oh God,
I'm not ordering seafood at a place that's not known
for their seafood. I need a ten out of ten,
yell five out of five.

Speaker 8 (24:44):
Whatever.

Speaker 1 (24:44):
It is a couple of items of note. First of all,
if you text the radio station, I would say, what
would you guy? You can agree to disagree in the
room eighty percent of the time Benjamine is responding. So
the opinions expressed on the text line do not always
refer like those of the Fred Show in its entirety.

Speaker 18 (25:02):
What did he do?

Speaker 1 (25:03):
Well, No, it's just like he's talking about mushrooms. Someone said,
mushrooms remind me of your lobes. I don't like it,
and then someone responded me too, mushrooms are gross. Okay,
I don't think that. Again, I don't always sign my name,
and I write back to a bunch of them too,
So just being just so.

Speaker 4 (25:18):
You know, if it's opinion based, Yeah, we didn't.

Speaker 1 (25:21):
Vote on what we're going to text you back, just
so you know. So like, it doesn't always reflect everybody,
second of all. And I have no problem with this
place whatsoever, not dissing the establishment at all. But I
completely agree with the mushroom texter who said, also, I
want to know who is keeping Long John Silver's in business?
Hey hey, hey, hey them hushpuppies. Baby. But here's the thing.

(25:42):
And again, I don't know if they're a sponsor. I
don't think they are. God bless him. I love them.
Stay in business, I mean, be prolific. Please more Long
John Silvers for all like here. But what I want
to know is I've never one time in my whole
life heard somebody say, hey, we're going to lunch. Do
you want McDonald's. Do you want to talk about or
do you want Long Junts over like I've never never
want in my entire life.

Speaker 15 (26:04):
That has never been on the menu. Well, we may
need to do another field trip, Rufio, let's go. You know,
we had this conversation with Arby's. Who's keeping Arby's open?

Speaker 4 (26:12):
They have non seafood at Long John.

Speaker 3 (26:14):
Yeah, they got a six dollar chicken basket right now. Again,
you're on the menu.

Speaker 1 (26:19):
Remember when you were a kid and your parents got
like a Sunday newspaper and inside there was like that
little periodical that had like all the specials for the week,
like coupons and discounts. That Rufeo is a human version
of that. They got fish talcoms. Now he's gone. He's
going to be just looking at Long John Silver's talking
about it, trying to get some, asking someone to bring

(26:41):
him some for free.

Speaker 11 (26:42):
That's all they.

Speaker 1 (26:46):
Okay, anyway they go to the cheesecake factory or going
to Long John Silver's. If you love it, you people
must love it because they are. There are a lot
of them. But I've never one time, it's never one
time been offered to me and no offense if you
love it. But I agree with that. I every time
I see one, I go, who is consistently eating?

Speaker 9 (27:05):
There?

Speaker 1 (27:06):
I wonder, let's go Fred? You fly I by?

Speaker 4 (27:09):
There's one drivable? I see it all the time.

Speaker 1 (27:11):
Oh here we go. Okay, well you're right, he's gone.
We've lost him forever going. Oh good, because I want
some fried fish at ten thirty. I'm sure it's great,
I really, but I just I don't know. Leave Ben alone.
I didn't disband. Someone texted. All I'm saying to you
is when you write the text line and it's opinion based,

(27:33):
I can't be responsible for everything because we all have
access to this, so don't I mean, sometimes I write
you back a lot of times. It's been so if
it's opinion based. It may or may not express the
full opinion of the Fred Show. I just want you
to know that. I think it's an important disclaimer.

Speaker 4 (27:49):
And Ben is ours to not leave alone.

Speaker 1 (27:51):
I was going to say, we own a baby. Yeah, child,
we purchased him, We own him. He's someday when he's
super successful and in the radio Hall of Fame for
sports radio or whatever he wants to do, that he'll
have to thank all of us because we that's right,
we started him. That's right. My friend Joe Hubbard rip

(28:11):
started him, and we are finishing him where the f
is finishing class is what this is. Oh yeah, this
is where he's finally ready. He's out of the oven.
He's ready to go. Now we're going to mold him
into the man he needs to be.

Speaker 2 (28:22):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (28:23):
Oh god, that's a big responsibility, you guys.

Speaker 1 (28:25):
Honestly, you know what we did with Ben. I mean
we as we collectively as a room, had a kid,
and now it's our responsibility to raise him properly, which
is why sometimes we're tough on him. Yeah, he needs
someone to be tough. He's one years old.

Speaker 4 (28:38):
Yes, he's a child.

Speaker 1 (28:39):
This young man needs to know you know, and any
tendency he has that we don't like, we fix it
because we want him to be successful.

Speaker 4 (28:47):
We do, we do pray for his success.

Speaker 1 (28:49):
People are texting who enjoys cigarettes? Well, I think it's
the nicotine that people enjoy. I think it's the and
then I think, over time, it's the nicotine combined with
something to do with your hands oral fixation.

Speaker 7 (28:58):
Also, like it's very social sometimes, Yeah, a group of
people go outside, You're like where everybody go.

Speaker 1 (29:02):
That's how I feel about drinking a lot of times,
to be honest with you, I like wine, I like vodka,
I enjoy I enjoy a beer, like a drink whatever.
But I find the vast majority of the time that
I'm drinking, I don't need to be drinking. I'm doing
it because I'm in an environment where that's the really,
that's the activity. Yeah, Like if I'm in a nice
dinner and like we're having a steak and then someone's

(29:22):
got some wine, someone's got some Yeah I don't know,
someone's got some who's got the wine?

Speaker 2 (29:30):
You know?

Speaker 9 (29:30):
And then I I like it.

Speaker 1 (29:32):
You know, that's great, nice dinner. Wine, maybe a cocktail,
maybe nice dirty martini with a blue cheese stuffed olive,
which Jason's not here for. But sometimes I ask myself, like,
I'm at the bar and Friday with my friends. We're
doing shots, we're drinking all the stuff. I'm like, I'm
gonna feel terrible tomorrow, and this is not enhancing. Being
with my friends is enhancing my life, But the drinking

(29:53):
that goes with the friend, you know, with the fellowship here,
is not enhancing my life whatsoever. But if I'm not drinking,
I'm not going to be on their level. And I'm
also the guy who's not drinking, so it's peer pressure
one hundred percent.

Speaker 4 (30:06):
Drunk people are very annoying when you're sober, exactly.

Speaker 1 (30:09):
That's my point. It's like, if you're not up here,
you got to hang with them, and especially if you're
with professionals. And these are professional drinkers that I hang
out with a couple, and it's unfair. It's like it's
like running a marathon when when everyone all week is
practiced and you didn't, you know, and these guys practice
every day, ye building up that tolerance, and then a

(30:30):
little old me shows up, right, and it's not good.

Speaker 4 (30:33):
You get yourself into some stuff.

Speaker 1 (30:35):
Well yeah, I'm getting better about, you know, putting the
phone away.

Speaker 4 (30:38):
Oh it's oh god, I need to do that too.

Speaker 1 (30:40):
Do you guys, I know Caitlin does. Do you guys
get the post drinking anxiety every time? Oh my god,
I wake up the next after I've been drinking. I
feel so guilty for someone. I just I'm like, what
did I do?

Speaker 18 (30:53):
I say?

Speaker 4 (30:55):
I have no friend?

Speaker 1 (30:56):
Yeah? Who did I text? What did I say what to?
Oh my god? Every single time my sister gets it too.
We have to like reassure one another. I'm like, did
I do anything?

Speaker 9 (31:05):
No?

Speaker 1 (31:05):
Did you do anything?

Speaker 2 (31:06):
No?

Speaker 1 (31:07):
Okay, good, that's nice.

Speaker 4 (31:08):
Yeah, it's good to have those.

Speaker 1 (31:09):
I wake up on my look at my phone, I'm like, oh,
I texted who oh?

Speaker 7 (31:13):
And then I started deleting, Like what I sent I
was still drunk, but then I didn't have the information
that I needed to proceed with the conversation with the person.

Speaker 4 (31:22):
So have you ever looked in your deleted text the
next morning?

Speaker 2 (31:24):
No?

Speaker 1 (31:26):
No, but I do the same thing. I'll wake up
the next day or even if I'm not drunk and
I just got into it with somebody, or I'm texting
somebody shouldn't be texting I'll delete it, and then in
my mind it's like it didn't happen. Oh, we definitely
still happened.

Speaker 4 (31:37):
Did and it's writing that deleted folder.

Speaker 1 (31:39):
Oh yeah, I didn't need to know that existed. That's
another thing. Have you ever I know, I know everyone
in the rooms tried done this, but have you ever deleted? Like,
I'm done with this person, delete the number, you delete
them out of your phone book. I'm done, and then
you go on LinkedIn and then like what And then
like a week later, you're like, but I think it's
still saved to my iPad. I wrote it down on

(31:59):
a or like I went to every effort to delete
someone's phone number, like every effort, and then I'm like, bye,
stilling their email signature like an idiot, Like an idiot.

Speaker 4 (32:10):
I'm so dumb.

Speaker 1 (32:11):
It's like an idiot. Yeah, anyway, no more idiot. Fred.
I'm trying to I'm trying to improve my life. It's
only taking me forty two years waiting by the phone.
Why did somebody get ghosted? Will do it? Next? On
the Fred Show? More Fread Show Next, You've got to Wait.

Speaker 4 (32:30):
Fread Show is.

Speaker 1 (32:31):
On now Hot This Morning Show. By the way, speaking
of which, where are we at with the magic group? Feel?
We gave you a magic present? Where are we at
with the tricks? We wanted some payoff from this, the
tricks we gave it to. All the people in the

(32:52):
room will be complaining about scheduling.

Speaker 7 (32:54):
Yeah, please don't don't ask where we're at with that
dinner because I can't.

Speaker 1 (32:57):
Guys, even all the people in the I'm easy. What's
the schedule? You tell me when to be some place
I go? It's technically on you because you have to
schedule the learning, don't I gave it.

Speaker 3 (33:09):
I gave it to Cale, and I try to ask
and then I'm twenty three of me, friend, where's.

Speaker 10 (33:17):
Work?

Speaker 1 (33:17):
So the line, by the way, the learning happens like
two hours before the event itself. It's not like I
don't go to beny Hannas College for you know, I
wish I could. Are you kidding me? I wish I
could do. I wish when you showed up I had
the whole routine down. Yeah, I think they teach you
a couple of little tricks and I'll be drinking, of
course the whole time, so that probably no knife involved.

(33:39):
And then that's the end of it, So don't talk
to me about you. You are the hardest person to
schedule out of anybody in this room. I have things
going on in my life outside the piers. The rest
of us are losers. We've already very busy.

Speaker 18 (33:50):
Man.

Speaker 1 (33:50):
We've established the rest of us I have. It's not
easy with the child. I have the schedule my life
around him. Yeah, I'm going to have a child, just
so I can say that, except guys, I can't kid
what or maybe I'll start saying it anyway, even though
I don't have a kid. And where was that being difficult?

Speaker 19 (34:07):
Like we have this?

Speaker 1 (34:09):
Why are you being defensive? We're kidding because you're saying
I'm the hardest the schedule one. It gets true, but
you were throwing at me the fact that things aren't
happening when I asked you about your magic Christmas present.
That's all I wanted to know. I'm not the problem.

Speaker 4 (34:22):
The problem is not you know God right?

Speaker 1 (34:23):
Can you call it the magic?

Speaker 4 (34:27):
Just give it to me. There's such a long day
to women will do it. The women will make it better.

Speaker 1 (34:34):
So Testy, my gosh, it's a radio show.

Speaker 3 (34:39):
You know.

Speaker 4 (34:40):
I'm excited for a photo shoot.

Speaker 2 (34:41):
I know.

Speaker 1 (34:46):
My schedule. Just I'm too busy. I just had a kid.
I can't go.

Speaker 20 (34:52):
Yeah, they talk better than they excited about. These are
the radio blocks on the Fred Show. All it's like
for writing in our diaries. I'm gonna do one today,
dear blog. This has never happened to me before, but
it's happening to me now for some reason. But I
don't think I can watch scary TV before I go

(35:13):
to bed. I think it's affecting my sleep in my dream.
And this has never happened to me my whole life.
I've heard people talk about this being a problem. I've
never had this happen to me.

Speaker 1 (35:22):
It started last week when I decided out of nowhere
that I was going to start watching Narcos again, that
show on Netflix. I watched season one and two, and
then I don't know, I just didn't. I didn't watch
three for some reason. And then I went back and
decided to watch season three. And it is really pretty
graphic that show. Like they're killing a lot of people.

Speaker 4 (35:43):
They are.

Speaker 1 (35:43):
This is always dead people in these cartels. Man, Unless
I don't want to be in a cartel, unless.

Speaker 4 (35:52):
I always liked it.

Speaker 1 (35:53):
I've just said, unless I can be the cartel leader,
but even then those guys get killed.

Speaker 9 (35:57):
Two.

Speaker 1 (35:58):
Yes, Like being a car tail leader would be sort
of boss, like you can have like you know what
in Pablo Escobar had houses with zoos in them and
hippos and a hippo. I mean, I want to have
a hippo. I just don't want to have to be
in a cartel to do it, you know, so I don't.
I'm not going to be in a cartel anymore. Okay,
good for you, good, good decision. I was thinking about it.
I think I kind of I run a cartel now.

(36:18):
I feel like, and it's this cartel, it's it's the
Fred cartel, the Fred Show cartel. You guys are all
my assassins, and I feel like I run a small
gang as it is right now.

Speaker 13 (36:28):
Mop.

Speaker 1 (36:28):
Yeah, well, I think I like that one matter. Either
one would work though legal name, fake name, it doesn't matter.
They both work. You didn't know when you created the
s Mob in high school that you really was prophetic,
that you were really going to wind up working with
a Christopher Yep.

Speaker 4 (36:44):
I had no idea.

Speaker 1 (36:44):
Yeah, okay, so I am a cartel leader. I need
a hippo. Some one get me a hippop. But the
other thing I started watching and my sister told me, like,
this will happen, Like she said that. She started watching it,
and it got to the point after two episodes where
they were watching it in bed and she wouldn't even
get out of bed to go get water. She was
so scared. It's called I don't know how I missed this.
It's on Investigation Discovery. I don't even know when it

(37:06):
started airing, maybe a month ago or something. It's called
The Curious Case of Natalia Grace. Have you ever heard
of this? Now? I'm only two or three episodes in,
so I don't really know what the outcome is and
don't tell me. But basically, to a paraphrase, it's the
story of a family that adopted a small person little

(37:31):
yes yes, yes, from the Ukraine that like or not
the Ukraine, Americans say the Ukraine. I recently met a
Ukrainian who's like, don't say that it's Ukraine. I don't
know why people say so, I'm sorry Ukraine, Ukraine. But like,
at least one other family had just relinquished this, like
adopted her in the mid like nope, And then this

(37:52):
one family winds up with her, and it turns out
that like they thought she was eight, yeah, and then
but there are reasons like that she couldn't be eight
that they get very specific about, so that like, Okay,
well she's not eight, she's got to be at least
a teenager. And then they, I don't know you could
do this. I'm not giving anything away. Really, I don't

(38:13):
know you could do this though, but they re aged
her legally and decided she had to be like twenty
four or something. So it turns out this kid's not
a kid. The kid also apparently wants to kill everybody
in the family that she just adopted or was just
adopted by. You can't just give a kid back. But

(38:35):
then the flip side is that the family may have
made this whole thing up too, so like I'm in
the midst of this, so she's definitely older than she said.
But then on the flip side, the family they're saying
was they weren't good people either. That's sort of the
way it's leaning. Again, I'm only halfway through, so I
don't know what happens, but like, there's just a lot

(38:56):
of weirdness going on here. But at one point, this
little person let me let you a little she's a
little person, and it turns out she's older than like eight.
They thought she was eight, but she's not. And then
they like one day they're like, well you're not eight,
so here, here's an apartment. You just live here now,
and then they just leave her. There is just a

(39:20):
wild build story.

Speaker 4 (39:21):
You couldn't handle her.

Speaker 1 (39:23):
Well because apparently she was saying she was going to
kill everybody, and then she would sort of admit to that,
and then it would come back that like maybe the
parents weren't all that, maybe they made some of it up,
because there are certain people saying that certain events that
happened they didn't happen that way. I don't know. I'm
in the middle of this thing trying to figure out
what the hell's going on, and it's freaking me the
hell out.

Speaker 7 (39:43):
So your sister is scared that that little woman is
trying to be in her specific house and she's going
to get water.

Speaker 1 (39:49):
I don't know, like an adult, but I don't put that.
Don't put that in her mind.

Speaker 8 (39:58):
Angel.

Speaker 1 (40:00):
I mean, Polly's a consertive young lady, but I.

Speaker 4 (40:02):
Don't think I have Halloween costume.

Speaker 1 (40:06):
I don't know I'm only halfway through, so I gotta
keep watching it. But it's it's someone said is based
on a true story. No, no, it is a true story.
It's not based on her. It is a true thing.
And see here people are saying, watch till the end,
it might change your opinion. It's really said.

Speaker 13 (40:23):
No, I I do know.

Speaker 1 (40:24):
And that's what I'm saying is I'm halfway through, and
I don't know what I believe. I believe that she's
older than she thought she was, or that she was
saying she was. I don't know how much control over
that narrative she I don't know, got it? Got it?
It's just so crazy. But anyway, it's called The Curious
Case of Natalia Grace and it's on I mean you

(40:46):
can stream it like on Comcast Infinity whatever it is.
There's a bunch of different I watch it on.

Speaker 2 (40:52):
Yeah, Like on the hand, I think it's because that
investigation idea is owned by Max Okay.

Speaker 1 (40:57):
So I don't I don't know. I got HBO. Max.

Speaker 10 (40:58):
I got that.

Speaker 1 (40:59):
By the way, that was a I'm a thing. Ever
that change HBO one of the best known brands in
the world. Let's just drop that and call it Max,
that was I don't understand that. But anyway, you guys,
I don't know, but don't watch this at night and
don't watch it. I don't. I'm shook. I gotta go home.
I got a meeting with this show. I got to
finish it.

Speaker 4 (41:18):
But you have to do it in the daytime.

Speaker 10 (41:20):
I guess.

Speaker 15 (41:20):
Yeah, I understand this whole heartedly. That's why I'm scattered
that little you learned a lady from the Selena.

Speaker 1 (41:25):
Movies still to this day, club manager, Yes, yes, yeah,
And that's why I don't have a fan club.

Speaker 4 (41:31):
I watched my bab's whoever try and kill me?

Speaker 1 (41:33):
You have to mob, though, what's the f mob?

Speaker 2 (41:36):
Now?

Speaker 1 (41:39):
I'm a cartel. Yeah, I need dudes in suits and
guns follow me around. I need it, you know what
I need?

Speaker 9 (41:44):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (41:45):
No, to protect you from the little orphan girls, I
have to say the end.

Speaker 3 (41:50):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (41:53):
But the parents, the parents can't be all there because
they even say in the beginning like that. Somehow the
parents went from being like, you know, well adjusted, respected
people with money and stuff, now apparently they're not.

Speaker 4 (42:05):
And that was going to tell you she did that
she missed them up.

Speaker 1 (42:09):
I don't know, see but people are saying, you gotta,
you gotta watch the whole thing because must That's what
I'm saying. I think there's a spin.

Speaker 4 (42:14):
She gives me the willies that either win.

Speaker 1 (42:16):
No, it's scary, and other people like, they put her
in this apartment and I'm trying not to ruin this
for anybody because I don't know the end, but they
put her in an apartment complex, and even her neighbors
were like, yo, no, like this ain't right, yext to
me by themselves.

Speaker 4 (42:33):
She's gonna kill you. My little neighbor's like, I'm going
to kill you later.

Speaker 1 (42:37):
Yeah. But it's so strange because you you'll see certain
pictures of her and you'll be like, gosh, she looks
like a kid, like a little kid like truly, not
because she's small, but because she looks like a little kid,
like baby face. And then the next one you're like, no,
that's a grown ass woman and she's angry and she
not happy. No, yeah, watch it, Acond. So this Hey, Caitlin, Hello,

(43:00):
So you hear me talking about this curious case of
Natalia Grace and what it reminds you of the orphan
Oh yeah, so.

Speaker 9 (43:07):
There's like a movie about the orphan Yeah.

Speaker 19 (43:09):
And it's like almost the exact same thing where this
family like essentially foster slash adoptie girl who appears to
be like ten years old and then it turns out
she's really like in our forties or fifty.

Speaker 1 (43:22):
I mean, that's basically that's the premise here. But it's
sweating they got from this story. It's wild, you gotta.
I mean, I'm telling people to watch this, but it's creepy,
like some of the people in it are creep me out,
and I don't know. I got to see the end.
I got to see it through, but my god, it's weird.
Thank you, Caitlin.

Speaker 8 (43:40):
Yep.

Speaker 1 (43:40):
So I highly recommend.

Speaker 10 (43:41):
Watching that movie because it's essentially exactly what you're saying.

Speaker 4 (43:44):
That's obviously a movie form, not you.

Speaker 1 (43:47):
Well, maybe i'd like that better since is not that's
not real, this is real, I guess. Thank you. Have
a great day, Thanks for listening.

Speaker 4 (43:53):
Thanks.

Speaker 1 (43:53):
Yeah, there you go. So those are the two things
that got me staying up at night. I'm not well rested.
The cure and people keep asking what the show is
called The Curious Case of Natalia and Grace, that's what
it is, but that ain't right. He's so over dramatic. Yes,
I agree, Yeah, I'm reading all these texts. Yes, yes, yes, yes.

(44:14):
If you don't watch this thing, it's cool. I've ever
been left waiting by the phone. It's the Fred Show. Hey, Kara,
good morning, Welcome to the show. How are you?

Speaker 8 (44:26):
How are you?

Speaker 1 (44:27):
Okay? This is waiting by the phone. Of course, we're
trying to figure out why you may have been ghosted,
So why don't you tell us about this guy Blake,
how you met, and about any dates that you've been
on and what's happening right now.

Speaker 21 (44:39):
We met on Hinge, so we went through drink. It
was a lot of fun, so we both did drink
a lot. The conversation was really great, Like I honestly
like thought, I meant the one.

Speaker 1 (44:55):
You met the one I did.

Speaker 8 (44:57):
The conversations were great. It was kind of like drinks
after drink, you know, when you're in that moment and
the buzz. It was just everything. So it was just
really great. Like I said, I thought, I met the one,
you know, like not trust anything. But there was a
moment where we were going to kiss, but we didn't.

Speaker 1 (45:13):
You know, and well, okay, that's weird. So you felt
like there was it was it like a you looked
at each other's eyes and it kind of didn't connect
or or did did you go for it he didn't respond?
Or like what happened?

Speaker 8 (45:25):
I mean we were we were kind of drinking, so
like I'm not sure if it was hamworker it was me,
but I kind of I really wanted to kiss him,
and then I kind of like backed away a little
bit just because I was like, all right, let me
just like wait till like write date.

Speaker 1 (45:40):
Three waiting to kiss damn okay, but hard to get you?
Weren't you were getting you? You acknowledged that you were
getting wrapped up in the moment talking about this guy
being the one, YadA YadA, YadA. So you didn't want
to come off, you know, come off too strong. So
you were sort of metering yourself as what you're saying,
like because you because you're I can even hear the

(46:01):
excitement in your voice as you retell the story, like
how into this guy you are? So you were sort
of like, WHOA, let me take a breath here.

Speaker 8 (46:08):
Yeah, I love to exactly that.

Speaker 21 (46:10):
I had to meet her.

Speaker 1 (46:11):
I to meter her it out right, right, meter her
it out so let's uh, let's see if we can
get ahold of this guy Blake, and we're gonna get
him on the phone, ask him questions. You'll be on
the phone at the same time, and at some point
you're welcome to jump in on the call after we
get you some info in amazing. Yeah, well I consider
us amazing frankly, don't you, guys? Yeah, I consider this
a public service too. So we're gonna do it. Next,

(46:33):
play one song and come back to hang on Kara,
Good morning, It's the Friend Show, Part two of waiting
by the phone.

Speaker 2 (46:40):
Hey, Kara, Hey, welcome hold of them. Well, we're about
to look at this girl. This is maybe this is
the problem is that you're so eager.

Speaker 11 (46:47):
I mean, take a break myself out again.

Speaker 1 (46:51):
I need to me yourself out. Meter it out, girl.
We're gonna get you just a couple of seconds here,
we're gonna get to it. I'm just, you know, thirsty,
I'm trying to do my radio host job here. Let
me just set this thing up, if you would. So, yeah,
we're gonna call this guy Blake. You guys went on
a date and you really clearly we're into this guy,

(47:13):
except he's not calling you since that date, and so
there's a big disconnect here. You want to know why,
absolutely why.

Speaker 8 (47:19):
I mean, like, I'm I'm pretty smart, I'm pretty hot
and attractive, and he was too. And I honestly never
had to go through this situation where I don't get
it called by.

Speaker 1 (47:28):
Okay, well, I can't imagine what the problem it could
be so many things. We're going to call him now,
good luck. Hi is this Blake? Yeah? This is Blake.
I'm pretty sure I want to apologize for this call
from the very beginning. But my name is Fred. I'm

(47:51):
calling from the Fred Show, and I have to tell
you that you are on the radio right now and
I need your permission to continue with the call. Can
wait that for just a couple of minutes, would you mind? Well,
thank you very much. Look at this friendly guy, very
nice guy. We're calling on behalf of a woman who
says she met you and you guys went out recently.
Her name is Kara. Do you remember Kara?

Speaker 8 (48:11):
Yeah?

Speaker 11 (48:11):
I remember her.

Speaker 1 (48:12):
Okay, So she I'm just going to tell you, man,
she was really into you. She called us and just
like extremely into you, and she called us and described
what she thought was a really great date, but says
that you have not reached out since that date. You
haven't responded to her at all, So what's going on?
Why are you not calling or responding to Kara?

Speaker 11 (48:32):
So, yeah, we did actually have a really nice date.

Speaker 1 (48:35):
It was really good.

Speaker 11 (48:36):
But you know, you got the drinking, had fun and
and this is the part where you're not going to believe.

Speaker 1 (48:43):
It, but no, I probably will believe it. Actually, what's
that part?

Speaker 11 (48:51):
Aara has an ankle mom, Man, I don't know what
it's for, but I know it can't be good. Yeah,
we got drinking a little bit her, you know, her
ple came up and I saw it.

Speaker 1 (49:02):
I was like, an ankle monitor that is a curveball.
That can't be good.

Speaker 11 (49:08):
I was like, this is I don't condone ghosting, but this.

Speaker 1 (49:12):
Is a good time to just kind of not so
rather than ask some questions, you're just like, I don't
even I don't even want to know. I'm not going
down this road.

Speaker 11 (49:20):
You know, it's better better to be ignorant in this one.

Speaker 1 (49:23):
I think, Well, let me let me bring Kara in
a major part of this that she left. I forgot
to mention that Kara is here. Kara, what an ankle bracelet?

Speaker 11 (49:33):
Oh man, I mean I guess she can explain herself.

Speaker 1 (49:36):
Yeah, well, now the time you did not mention the
ankle bracelet, Kara, and the possibility he may have seen
that to what what is that about? Why do we
have an ankle bracelet?

Speaker 9 (49:45):
On?

Speaker 13 (49:49):
Hello?

Speaker 1 (49:50):
Why are you so quiet?

Speaker 2 (49:51):
Now?

Speaker 4 (49:51):
You all after? Lock up?

Speaker 1 (49:52):
What's going on? You're talking of a storm before? Kara?
What's the deal?

Speaker 4 (49:57):
Yeah, how'd you get it? Huh?

Speaker 13 (50:03):
Caro?

Speaker 11 (50:03):
Is it a misunderstanding?

Speaker 1 (50:08):
Kara?

Speaker 10 (50:08):
Are you not?

Speaker 9 (50:08):
You just.

Speaker 1 (50:10):
All of a sudden you're not even talking now?

Speaker 13 (50:14):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (50:14):
I think she hung up?

Speaker 4 (50:15):
Did she?

Speaker 1 (50:16):
Well? That's interesting.

Speaker 4 (50:18):
WHOA doesn't seem guilty at all?

Speaker 1 (50:20):
That is that is extremely interesting?

Speaker 4 (50:22):
Uh?

Speaker 1 (50:24):
Okay, Well, Blake, I guess you're off the you're here?
Where the hell have you been?

Speaker 21 (50:35):
I mean, yeah, I have?

Speaker 10 (50:37):
I guess what is it?

Speaker 1 (50:40):
I've been asking you for two minutes? What is why?

Speaker 11 (50:46):
Babe?

Speaker 4 (50:47):
So okay, I don't think she's gonna tell her. I
have on an orange jump side.

Speaker 1 (50:53):
I don't know what's going on. I thought she she's
still here, but she's not telling us anything. So we
did have these long pauses, Blake, to end this right
now because I don't know. I think she's a I
think she's a murderer. I think she is a drug lord.
I don't know what the hell she's doing, but she's
weird as hell if nothing else. And we're not doing
this anymore. I want nothing to do with this blake.

(51:14):
Thank you for your time, and I'm so sorry. He's
the Fred Show Good Morning on the radio and the
iHeart app as well. Search for the Fred Show on demand.
So there's is this lady? Because you know I'm currently
for like the next I don't know. Several days back
on my dating app stretch, I'll go on and then
I pause for a few weeks, I go back, do

(51:35):
you hit like?

Speaker 4 (51:36):
Can you hit pause on them?

Speaker 9 (51:37):
Or no?

Speaker 1 (51:39):
I just hit pause, and then I suppose what you disappear?
I don't know, nothing really ever comes of it, but
it's FULMO like I go, I come off them, Then
I think, well, how am I going to meet anybody?
That's everybody meets? I guess, and then I go back on.
But lately, I recently I should say I matched with
a hairstylist. I don't. I don't even know if we'll
ever meet. But what I want to know is if
things work out and I wind up doting a hairstylist.

(52:03):
This is a real question. Eight five five five one
three five you get text the same number. But I'd
love to hear your amazing voice if I were to
date her. At what point do I have to fire
my hairstylist of thirteen years? Who's my friend? I mean,
she cuts my hair, then me go to dinner like that,
we're friend, We're like personal friends. At what point do
I have to fire my hairstylist if I were to

(52:25):
date a hairstylist? Like, how long were you with Jess?
Cause your cause your wife Ruby always a hairstylist. How
long were you with her before? I mean the first month,
like I you know, I found out she was a hairstylist.
I have, I had a hairstylist. I was still doing
all the crazy colors and all that stuff. And then
once I was like, hey, limps, let's get a haircut
and then boom that's it. Did you pay her?

Speaker 13 (52:45):
Yes?

Speaker 8 (52:46):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (52:46):
No, not even after a month. No, I've never paid
Jess for a haircut. Once you get married, maybe, but
like I would think early on you'd offer to pay
you just dating.

Speaker 4 (52:53):
No, no, just give her something later.

Speaker 1 (52:55):
Yeah, right, well we know what that would be like
because we talked to her about it. Yeah right, probably
at the beginning. Again, well you probably were working harder
in the beginning, which, of course, yeah, yeah, you were,
really you were concerned about her pleasure.

Speaker 2 (53:06):
In the beginning, I was getting a national average up,
you know what I'm saying. Ah, the Philippines was not
on this lesson, but I know that news. Then again,
it was Germany, so and I'm German, so bad news
for both of us.

Speaker 1 (53:20):
Help me, and the US wouldn't looking too good either,
So all around we're just screwed with little wee ways. No,
So I mean, do you have you ever had this?
I mean I had I didd a dentist for a while.
I fortunately didn't have a dentist at the time, so
I could go to her, And then when we stopped
seeing each other, I found another dentist, you know. But
I mean, have you ever had this happen before? Where

(53:41):
you're you meet someone new and it's like, like, for example,
how offended would Mike be, Mike the mechanic if you
went to Jiffy loube, Oh, just because you wanted to
keep things separate.

Speaker 14 (53:53):
Yeah, well I do that when I'm mad at him,
like I end up losing because I end up paying anyway.
But then I'll be like, oh, hey, well I'll ask
you to do my old changes like three times, so
you don't do it. Then they go to Jiffy Lupe
and he gets and I leave the receipt on his
seat in my car. I'm like, oh, did you put
that in the glove compartment?

Speaker 11 (54:10):
Yes?

Speaker 1 (54:11):
Wow, mad He's probably like, well, whatever, like you paid
the sixty dollars or whatever it is.

Speaker 2 (54:15):
Pep.

Speaker 1 (54:16):
We're saying, unless you marry this woman, don't cut ties
because I think if I think my friend would understand
because we are friends, but she might also be like, really,
no loyalty here.

Speaker 9 (54:25):
I don't do it.

Speaker 15 (54:26):
Don't do it like people who date or even like
I've seen my friends their mothers are hairstylists. They never
have their hair done because you're always last on a
priority list.

Speaker 4 (54:36):
The customers always come first. So I wouldn't.

Speaker 15 (54:38):
Even if you guys get married, I think you should
still keep your hairstylists.

Speaker 1 (54:42):
You got it, like a separation between church and state.

Speaker 6 (54:44):
Yeah, you know, yeah, business some pleasure for you, I
would say, six months. So once you hit that mark,
then you can go to her. I want you to
hit that mark.

Speaker 4 (54:52):
That's his record, right six months.

Speaker 6 (54:53):
Once you hit that, because you don't want to, you know,
go to the point where like you guys don't make it,
and then you got to call your hairstylas back and
give the apology to or you don't.

Speaker 1 (55:00):
Want that the apology to her.

Speaker 4 (55:01):
Yeah, you know what I mean, crawl him back.

Speaker 1 (55:03):
Yeah, I would definitely, you know, try her out. She
might not have good hairstylist.

Speaker 3 (55:08):
You don't know, you know what I'm saying, she might
drop it all messed up, and then you still got
to go back to your other one.

Speaker 1 (55:13):
So well, that was my opening line to her, was
something to be because you know how it works on
hands were like you match. You know, a guy says
he likes the girl. You could do it the other
way around too, I guess with the with the roses
or whatever. It's so dumb, but but I liked her,
she likes me back, and then and then you either
one can message first, but tifically, the etiquette is the
dude messages the girl. And that was my thing was, Hey,

(55:34):
if this works out, do I have to dump my hairstylist.
And her response was, you don't have to worry because
I only do women's hair.

Speaker 4 (55:40):
And I was like, that's really I'm a woman, said, well,
I got.

Speaker 1 (55:44):
News for you. I'm from Cameroon.

Speaker 4 (55:48):
I never heard of that. Only doing women's hair, that's what.

Speaker 1 (55:51):
Well, women's hair that is much more profitable from I
understand than than men's hair. Oh, color, and the length
of time. It's yeah, a bunch of here eight five, five, five, nine,
one one oh three five. Don't ever fire your hairstylist.
I'm a hairstylist. I would not want my boyfriend to
fire their stylist. Plus, it's one less cut the dow
after work. The other thing is I'm grandfathered into like

(56:12):
a really good price. She's never in thirteen years, she's
never changed my price. I pay like twenty to seven
cents like in the olden days, and so she's never
changed it. I think if I left her and came back,
I think since we're friends, she wouldn't do it. But
if I were her, I'd update the pricing. I'd be like, well,
now a men's haircut is you know whatever it is?

Speaker 6 (56:30):
It went up the men's haircut the barbershops day, they're
making a little more money than they have.

Speaker 4 (56:33):
Everything's going Yeah, they mean ten dollars tomatoes out here.
I'm going to be at the barbershop next time.

Speaker 2 (56:38):
I know.

Speaker 1 (56:38):
I saw you wrote that. Yeah. I've been dating my
fiance now for the last fifteen years, and she cut
my hair once because my barber was incarcerated, but never
cut it again. Well, I mean that's different. Yeah, you know,
if your barber's incarcerated, what are you supposed to do?
Don't mix personal with business.

Speaker 8 (56:54):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (56:54):
A lot of people here are saying this is you, Hey, Kelly, Yes,
hey Kelly. Yeah, so this woman and by the way,
I've never even met this woman, we've never even spoken.
But here I am already considering and upset about the
idea that I might have to fire my hairstylist in
favor of, you know, the person I'm dating, because wouldn't
it be a offend and you are a hairstylist, apparently, Kelly.
Wouldn't it be offensive? Though? If I'm like, no, I mean,

(57:17):
I really enjoy seeing you naked, but I don't trust
you to cut my hair.

Speaker 18 (57:22):
The guy that I've been dating, does it really trust
me to cut his hair, and honestly, it's the best
thing that the hair happened to me because I honestly
don't have to stare at him all the time with
the haircut that I'm doing all the time, or be
like worried about his hair looking bad because I'm the
one that's doing it.

Speaker 1 (57:39):
Ice, So you're like, if your hair looks bad as.

Speaker 8 (57:41):
Literally and I love it.

Speaker 9 (57:44):
I love it, Okay, contest, No, it's not really that bad,
I don't think, all right.

Speaker 1 (57:49):
So you're not offended, then.

Speaker 10 (57:51):
I'm not offended, okay. And I've been doing hair for fifteen.

Speaker 1 (57:54):
Years, so all right, Well, thank you, Kelly, have a
good day.

Speaker 4 (57:58):
Yeah, thank you so much.

Speaker 1 (58:00):
Remember I love you too. Thank you. I remember when
Rufio you were trying to put color in your hair
and Jess wouldn't do it, and then you threaten to
go to somebody else to do it. A perm was
aer that it was a Jesus Bruno Mars. He wanted
a perm and she wouldn't do it. But how mad
would she have been? For two reasons, One because she
wouldn't do it because she didn't think it was gonna
look good, and two because you you cheated on her basically, Oh,

(58:22):
she wouldn't have been mad.

Speaker 3 (58:23):
No, she would have been like, see you got what
you got now I have her long a perm last
three months, six months.

Speaker 1 (58:29):
I think she would have been mad because she didn't
want you to do it, because she didn't think it
was gonna look good. No, she would have been fine
of me doing it. She just didn't want to do
it because it's a lot of work.

Speaker 2 (58:36):
A perm is a lot of work, Like, I can't
do that at the house, and you're not paying I
gotta go to the salon, right, I'm not paying for
it either.

Speaker 1 (58:41):
So this guy, well, I mean, I guess I wouldn't
pay my wife either. I wouldn't pay my wife either,
but I would also do something that you're not doing. Hey, Ryan,
hey man, why is just becoming personal? Ryan? Should I
fire my And I've never met this woman, but if
I dated or should I fire my hairstylist Christy who
I can't imagine.

Speaker 13 (59:02):
I would say, based on your track directors, probably wait
a long time. So like, you know, she's going to
be your wife partner because if you guys break up,
then you're going to have to go back to your
old hair.

Speaker 1 (59:13):
So yeah, go crawling back.

Speaker 9 (59:16):
To you.

Speaker 1 (59:17):
You're so right.

Speaker 13 (59:19):
To say, is she canceled because she's sicker? There's an
appointment and then you can go to your current girls,
right right.

Speaker 1 (59:28):
That makes sense? That makes it? Okay, all right, fair enough, Bryan,
thank you, and then you're you're not wrong. Have a
good day, ob Gy and Lena? Hi, Obig and Lena?
How are you a long time?

Speaker 2 (59:40):
No?

Speaker 9 (59:40):
See?

Speaker 2 (59:40):

Speaker 1 (59:43):
Are you offering to do O?

Speaker 2 (59:44):
B G?

Speaker 1 (59:45):
I N inspections here in the on the show? Is
that what you want to do? Those are called right inspections. Yes,
it's like like an emissions check. Right, you're just pulling
the overarage and they just take it. Looks see is
that what happens in the inspection.

Speaker 4 (59:58):
And everything?

Speaker 1 (59:59):
They called them?

Speaker 13 (01:00:00):
You go for a yearly exam, you're yearly well woman exam.

Speaker 10 (01:00:05):
Every woman should go out there and get it. Let's
cut their goal can through what we can't.

Speaker 1 (01:00:09):
Yeah, Okaya, shout out glean. I think you're right, So
would you? I mean I'm trying to think of the example,
like do you do you do your friends come and
see you or do they keep that separate?

Speaker 10 (01:00:20):
I do so I have some friends and even some
family that come and see me. It's at first it
was a little weird to some of them, but then
they realized that it's still there's still a level of
a professional relationship. So they know that I'm not going
to go around telling their business or anything like that,
and they actually know they're going to get better here

(01:00:41):
with me more than anything else. So I took care
of my sister during her pregnancy, and but it was
my partner's who actually when it came to surgery, we
kind of drew the line, and my partner actually did
her sea.

Speaker 1 (01:00:54):
Section, okay, because yeah, ethically, isn't it like it's a
little too close to home?

Speaker 10 (01:00:59):
Oh definitely, Like I was there for it, but if
I was the one operating, I probably wouldn't have made
the decision that was made in the r and may
have had a bad outcome. So okay, that's why we
stay out of the surgery.

Speaker 1 (01:01:12):
Okay.

Speaker 10 (01:01:13):
But I did do my nephew's circumcision.

Speaker 2 (01:01:17):
And.

Speaker 8 (01:01:19):
There was a lot of like, oh my god, are
you sure you want to do that?

Speaker 10 (01:01:23):
And I was like, you know, if I trust myself
to do it on anybody else, why would it be
any different?

Speaker 1 (01:01:29):
In this case, yeah, he's never going to live that
data family reunions be like, hey, yeah, right, I think
is that looking? Is that there is that thing banging?
Because that's my best work right there, I will say.

Speaker 10 (01:01:41):
And his dad came to me a few days later
and he's like, all the nurses keep asking we did
his circumcision like that it looks great, And I was like, see,
I told you, I don't just.

Speaker 1 (01:01:50):
Make this up. Yeah. So yeah, when he's like sixteen seventeen,
he can tell his girlfriend be like, hey, I think
that I did that. I did that. You're welcome.

Speaker 4 (01:01:58):
Yeah exactly, I've been going over there.

Speaker 1 (01:02:01):
But see, lean like if you were my friend and
I were a girl, I mean, and I know that
you guys are it's different, and I know that people
have different attitudes towards doctors than I do. Like in
that I think you guys are internalizing everything. When I
go in, I think you're looking this is me. This
is my self consciousness. I feel like when I go
to the doctor and I'm like, I got the poops
or something, I feel like you guys are going, oh,
that's gross, even though you've heard a million things and
don't care. But like, wouldn't you be afraid that, like

(01:02:24):
if you had something embarrassing that your friend just knows
that it's just hanging out way back there in the
storage closet in the back of your brain, that you
came in there with that nasty thing.

Speaker 10 (01:02:35):
Well, I mean, I'll speak for myself at least and
a lot of my colleagues that I work with, when
when you go into medicine, especially into a field like
obgy and you view like the female anatomy very differently.
I don't think about those parts the way that the
average person does. And so to me, it's not so
much oh my god, that's growth. It's more like, oh,

(01:02:57):
she has a pathology and it needs to be treated.
It's a lot more enclosed in that realm, rather than
oh my god, that's gross.

Speaker 1 (01:03:07):
Okay, because I don't I want to be clear, it's
not gross. But for me, I guess that would be like, oh, great,
my friend knows that I got the civis, you know.

Speaker 13 (01:03:15):
What I mean.

Speaker 1 (01:03:16):
And to be very convenient, because then if my friend
knows that I got the sivis, then she could just
come over here, or she could just come over and
treat the SIVIS. And I never had to go anywhere.
But but yet my friend knows I got the cibbus,
and I don't know if I want that.

Speaker 10 (01:03:29):
Yeah, I mean I could see where that would come
into play, but that's why, you know, the personal decision. Overall,
I think that if you are practicing in this field,
more than likely you're able to compartmentalize things and okay,
not think about that when you're out with your friends.

Speaker 1 (01:03:46):
Well, shout out to you, Obgui and Lena been listening
for a long time. She does all my inspections, so
I'm yes, all of that, all the inspections. Thank you, Lena.
Have a good day, a great day, and I'm glad
you called. Thanks for still listening. I was wondering where
she was. Our free medical Advice More Thread show next.

Speaker 4 (01:04:06):
Fread show is on now this morning show.

Speaker 1 (01:04:13):
I don't mean to I'm not trying to pick on
gen Z because I feel like it's just it is
what it is. I think gen Z kind of got
crapped on in a lot of ways, you know, with
the whole this pandemic thing. You guys familiar with that
the pandemic is like, you know, it was a few
months before we weren't able to do a lot of stuff.
They wear a mask some restaurants for some restaurants were

(01:04:35):
closed businesses and stuff like that. But gen Z workers
who spent their college years stuck at home during the
pandemic are being hired now to office jobs and they're
having to take courses or the offices of companies are
encouraging courses on how to send emails, what to where,

(01:04:55):
and how to speak to others.

Speaker 4 (01:04:58):
Yeah, it was very They need it.

Speaker 11 (01:05:01):
They need it.

Speaker 1 (01:05:03):
Mean, and again, I'm not picking on I don't mean
to be the older generation that's picking on the younger generation. No, no, no, no, no,
because I mean.

Speaker 4 (01:05:11):
We got it, millennials, we got the worst, so bad.
We're entitled blame for everything.

Speaker 1 (01:05:17):
Oh my god, maybe were I don't know, were you?

Speaker 4 (01:05:20):
Definitely not not millennials.

Speaker 12 (01:05:22):
No, we're not entitled in itself is an entitledres given
you are in time gen Z workers who came into adulthood, adulthood, mediter.

Speaker 1 (01:05:39):
Where's adulthood.

Speaker 14 (01:05:40):
I know where it is, close to Spain, across the water,
the medics rich medicary, Mediterrane.

Speaker 1 (01:05:49):
That's where adult That's where I don't holds is so
graduates of the class of twenty twenty three began college
during the early days of COVID in spring of twenty twenty,
meaning they missed out on learning a lot of skills
I guess, like talking to people. New report explores how
some companies are now offering recent grads training on how
to behave professionally at the office. So KPMG, for example,

(01:06:13):
is a company that provides tax and advisory services. It's
one of the workplaces providing new hires with training courses
that cover how to talk to coworkers in person, including
the appropriate level of eye contact and pauses. The company
has found new hires are stiff, talk too fast, or
relied too much on filler words like New hires will

(01:06:34):
go to a training facility in Florida where they'll practice
different scenarios involving conflict with teams and how to talk
to a colleague. They'll learn tips like maintaining eye contact,
listening to others, taking pauses, and avoiding jargon. Michigan State
University now requires that many of its business majors take
courses that advanced skills like face to face networking aka

(01:06:58):
like speak to people that I need that that's where
we're at. That's where we're at is people don't even
know at this point how to like interact with each other.

Speaker 7 (01:07:07):
I guess, well, I think you lose it too, like
they lost it during the pandemic when they went to
school online.

Speaker 5 (01:07:11):
You know, I was you forget how to talk to people. Yeah,
some people were alone a lot. I mean, is that
kind of innate? Like, what about the first eighteen years
of your life? Well, you're not little at eighteen, Klin,
I mean you're grown up. You went through all of
high school.

Speaker 7 (01:07:27):
Now when you went to high school online. All the
eighteen year olds went to high school online. My sister
did for two years.

Speaker 1 (01:07:32):
Yeah, but she's eighteen. So you're talking to confused. You're
talking to.

Speaker 2 (01:07:35):
People to your same age in high school, you know
what I'm saying. When you get to the real world,
you're talking to adults. Well, but you're also talking to
be like close to your age too. That's lit, you
know what I'm saying.

Speaker 7 (01:07:45):
There's a lot of skills during the pandemic, did studies
because their brains aren't developed till twenty five.

Speaker 15 (01:07:50):
I feel like I lose skills every day. Yeah, or
I'm on my phone. The more I'm on social media.
Like the less I talk, the less even you know,
do it though it's harder.

Speaker 4 (01:08:01):
It's harder.

Speaker 3 (01:08:02):
It is a struggle everything. Yeah, send me to Florida.
I want to take this class. I just it's just crazy.
This is crazy talk. I choose not to talk to people,
but I know how.

Speaker 4 (01:08:16):
To do it.

Speaker 1 (01:08:17):
I leave before I have to.

Speaker 6 (01:08:19):
I hate to be this person too. I do think
the pandemic played a part in it. They were not
dealt the best, you know, hand with that situation.

Speaker 1 (01:08:26):
Lood.

Speaker 4 (01:08:26):
I hated with this person. But I do feel like
a lot of it's just like the.

Speaker 6 (01:08:29):
Gen z neis in them, Like we see it too sometimes,
like they take a stand when they don't want to
do something.

Speaker 4 (01:08:35):
They take a stand, you know what I mean.

Speaker 1 (01:08:36):
That requires talking to people. So I guess they do
how to do it.

Speaker 4 (01:08:38):
They do when they need to. Let's just say that.
But I feel like, I don't know.

Speaker 6 (01:08:42):
I feel like their parents probably did a lot of
things for them, appointment setting and all that, you know
what I mean, Like they're not used to talking to
adults in the real world in an office wearing slacks.

Speaker 1 (01:08:49):
I'm more concerned experiential. I'm more concerned about the milestones
that that kids missed out on proms and and uh,
that's so sad a sporting events. And that's that's what
I'm way more worried about and sad about that. I
didn't realize we had to teach people how to talk
after four years of college and and somehow you got

(01:09:10):
a job too, which means you had to interview. So
I guess you interviewed well enough. But then it was like,
I don't know where's I mean. Benjamin talks fine sort
of and he he's of that generation, talks good. Yeah,
he talks. He looks so good. Yeah, maybe I need
you know what We're all going to this class. It's
the Fred Show. Do you have what it takes to battle?

Natalia Grace is the thing on Investigations Finish.

Speaker 2 (01:22:51):
I did.

Speaker 18 (01:22:52):
The name.

Speaker 1 (01:22:53):
I'm sorry.

Speaker 2 (01:22:56):
I was talking about please Texan. Yeah, I say it
like eight times and the people are like, but that's fine,
It's all right.

Speaker 1 (01:23:03):
I don't I mean, people are doing other things and
I don't expect them to take Actually, do expect you
to take notes. I expect you to take notes from
the show. And so she's like, yeah, to watch this thing,
I'm like, okay, where do you watch it? Well, we
have YouTube TV. I'm like, I don't have that, okay,
So then I google it and there's like five different
ways to watch it. Some you can pay for, some's
on Amazon Prime. And then it's like, well, let me

(01:23:24):
just try my infinity. I'll just type it in. Turns
out I have Investigation Discovery on demand, so I was
able to watch it that way, but I don't know,
I don't know where to watch at this stuff. You know,
it's like, oh, have you seen this? What's it on?

Speaker 8 (01:23:37):
Do I have that?

Speaker 1 (01:23:38):
I don't know, let's just put them all together. But
then again, that's called cable. Yeah, put it back on
TV right where belongs.

Speaker 2 (01:23:47):
Honestly, give me that Channel three with a TV guy
that just scrolls all day and I watch.

Speaker 1 (01:23:52):
I mean, it's like everything's now broken up, and then
now it's like, can we just have it all together again.
That's called a bundle. That's called the man comes over
and gives you a box and puts it on top
of your TV and whatever else. That's what I want.
That's the world I want to return to. But I
guess we're not doing that. More Fread show next, the

(01:24:15):
Fread Show is on it. Yeah, Fread's fun. Fact, Fread fun.
More people drown in deserts than die of thirst. I
love the idea. Yeah yeah, put that one your pipe

(01:24:37):
and smoga for a second. One would assume that dying
of thirst and dehydration would be the leading cause of
death in a desert, but surprisingly it's drowning. So rain
in the desert is infrequent, but when it does rain,
it comes on suddenly and heavily, and deserts don't have
water drainage systems in place, so the rains fall too
fast for the dry clay like soil to absorb it.

(01:24:57):
Water overflow becomes excessive, and that means that there's quicksand
in storms as well, which can lead to drowning by sand.

Speaker 4 (01:25:04):
Wow, that sounds awful.

Speaker 8 (01:25:06):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:25:07):
Did you know that Antarctica is the world's largest desert. Yes,
because they calculate desert. I got to put some in
my park at that to think, just too much, too many.

Speaker 1 (01:25:18):
Packs more Fread Show Next, The Fread Show is on.
I've been saying for a long time that I got problems,
you guys, I got problems, and I've been saying for
a long time I'm want to lose some weight, and
I really sort of I've taken some steps in the
last few days, you know, trying to eat a little

(01:25:38):
bit better, exercising and a little more like deliberately, you know.
I have a little diet plan I'm trying to follow,
which it's Bogo at pop Belly. So we can also
today's over. But I would throw that out of the
window completely. But my problem is that I get on
a scale like four or five times a day, hoping
that somehow the results are fascinating.

Speaker 10 (01:26:03):
Do this.

Speaker 1 (01:26:03):
But I've been on a diet for three days and
I probably stood on the scale about forty times I'm
not exaggerating, like it'll be like an hour or two,
I haven't eaten anything, and then I'll go and I'll
stand on the scale and it will be the same
as it was three because it doesn't work this way.
Not only that, but it takes a while for your
body to like get in the routine of like, okay,

(01:26:23):
we're actually not going to consume ourselves with complete garbage,
and so I know it doesn't work that. But then
I'll like, I'll take all my clothes off, and I'll
be like, well, that's what it was, that's why it
hasn't gone down.

Speaker 7 (01:26:34):
Oh my god, that's me at the doctor. I'm like,
can I take my shoes off? Can I take my
coat off?

Speaker 4 (01:26:38):
My top or all?

Speaker 1 (01:26:38):
This estimate in my head will be like, well, my
clothesway at least seven so which they don't, you know,
they would maybe maybe a pound. Maybe I can diet,
like I mean, I'm I can't even talk, see, I'm
so I'm stroving myself. I'm intermittent fasting, which I've been,
which I've been doing anyway. I think that's kind of
the way a lot of us live anyway. But the

(01:27:00):
problem is when I do eat, it's toxic garbage, it's
nuclear waste, and so that's I think it's really that
simple for me. It's just not eating crap when I eat,
and I bought food, and I'm like, it's not that
hard if I you know, I'm organized and I think
about it, but I'm lazy, and so a lot of

(01:27:20):
times I don't. I'm not organized and I don't think
about it anyway. So but that's my thing is I'm
obsessive about results, and so I'm not embellishing. In three days,
I probably stood on the thing and then I replaced
the batteries at one point because I'm like, well, this
can't be right, Like I don't think this thing is accurate.

Speaker 4 (01:27:40):
Oh my god, torch.

Speaker 1 (01:27:44):
But I've gotten on this scale no fewer than forty times,
and it has gone down in three days, but not
nearly at the rate that I would like. I need
it to happen a lot faster. So I'd like to
say I need results. I'm a results oriented human being.
I obsessed over the rate. I obsess over my weight now,
but like, as soon as I go home, I'm gonna

(01:28:05):
go jump on it. I'm going to get naked. I'm
gonna jump on it, yep, and then I'm gonna eat
my potbelly after that. The Fred Show, thank you so
