All thanks to Live Nation. I'm about to save you,
Kiki save me. I'm about to save you right now.
You're gonna thank me later. We don't need a wedding swing.
We don't need a photo shooting you all over the place.
We don't need fireworks pyrotechnics. We don't need four bands.
(00:45):
We don't need venue changes. We don't need you levitating in.
We don't need raisin canes afterwards. We don't need anything.
Speaker 1 (00:53):
Right, what are you talking about?
Speaker 2 (00:54):
Research suggests that how much couples spend on their wedding
may influence the chance that their marriage lasts.
Speaker 1 (01:02):
Who cares about that?
Speaker 3 (01:05):
Who cares if it last? You know, we had a
good time.
Speaker 4 (01:09):
Some time.
Speaker 1 (01:10):
We just want to have a big day, and it doesn't.
Speaker 2 (01:12):
You already made it this far right, and by that
point it will be what nine years have been together,
nine and a half years by the time you get
to the altar. But who cares if it all melts
down right away? As long as it was a great night,
we had.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
A good run. We went out with a bang.
Speaker 2 (01:25):
Studies showed the couples who spend more than about twenty
thousand dollars on their weddings are significantly more likely to
divorce later than those who spend a more modest amount,
while lower costs se wait spend more than twenty on
their wedding are significantly more likely to divorce. Yeah, okay,
so the more you that's why the way right it quickly,
The more you spend, the more likely you already get divorced.
(01:47):
According to this, lower cost ceremonies tend to be linked
with stronger long term marriages. The takeaway keeping wedding expenses
reasonable and avoiding starting married life under heavy financial strain
actually help your relationship thrive. I've been saying this, You've
been saying this single guy, never engaged, never married. I've
been telling you guys how.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
To do it.
Speaker 5 (02:08):
Gives good advice, though you do I hate I'll give
you that party, that's your thing.
Speaker 2 (02:12):
Yeah, I have a lot, a lot of opinions and
a lot of perspectives. I've made a career out of it.
It doesn't mean that I could live my own life properly.
That No one said that. That was not part of
the deal.
Speaker 3 (02:23):
No, did you say twenty thousand dollars?
Speaker 1 (02:24):
Twenty thousand dollars?
Speaker 5 (02:25):
It still seems really cheap, Well right, I mean, but yeah,
it seems like a micro more.
Speaker 1 (02:30):
Twenty is the threshold. So people spend you know, a
lot more than.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
That, I guess, but oh yeah, I'm assuming. So I said,
you don't even have to spend a lot of money.
Speaker 1 (02:37):
Well, I know I have to.
Speaker 6 (02:39):
But you know, I agree at this study, and I'm
sure is very true because think about it, you don't.
You don't go into your marriage with a bunch of debts.
The more money you spend means the more people you
have at your wedding. The more people you have in
your wedding, so there's probably less family drama, you know,
And so you're not good for them.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
I want to take a quick survey though, eight five
five five three five you can contact the same number.
First of all, did you spend a ton of money
on your wedding?
Speaker 1 (03:03):
One? Two? Are you still married? Three? Was it worth it?
Truly worth it? Four?
Speaker 3 (03:10):
What's your favorite calling?
Speaker 2 (03:12):
What is your social Security number? And your mother's maiden name.
But I'm serious, I mean I said this a thousand
times and reference to a bunch of different people's weddings.
It's like, I don't remember what I ate at ninety
nine percent of the weddings I've been to. I remember,
like some of the cool stuff, Like I remember at
the end somebody brought out like sliders or something at
the least someone like McDonald's cheeseburgers at the very very
(03:33):
end of it.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
That's cool.
Speaker 3 (03:35):
Yeah, I love the drunk food.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
I mean that's cool. But like that is the jump
was right the cheapest part of the night. Somebody rand
it ran on down there and you know, ordered one
hundred hamburgers and pass them out at the end. I
mean I could have done that for you. I could
adore dash it for less than you spent.
Speaker 7 (03:49):
I will say, the most fun weddings I've been to
are the ones that are more chill. Like I just
like thinking of all the weddings I've been to, like
in a barn with solo cops or you know, just
like a chill been as.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
Simple and and maybe it wasn't as much money to
do it that way. I mean, who knows, maybe the
barn with the solo cups actually.
Speaker 1 (04:06):
Logistically was very expensive or hard to do. I don't know.
It was at their barn and there's there.
Speaker 7 (04:10):
So it was in West Virginia, and okay, yeah it was.
Speaker 3 (04:13):
Yeah, it was.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
I think the weddings that were intended to look simple,
but like they were in the middle. Like I went
to one wedding I didn't know what I was getting into.
It was somewhere in Colorado, I can't remember, breckon Ridge,
Steamboat maybe Steamboat was in Steamboat.
Speaker 3 (04:26):
I don't know why.
Speaker 1 (04:26):
It was in the middle of a forest.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
There was like a clearing and it literally was just
chairs and trees, and I'm like, well this now, of
course we were all busts there on luxury. I mean,
this was this wedding probably customiated luck and actuality. It
probably could, but like at first it's very simple. Like
we pull up, there's like trees, the forests, like there
was I think I think there was like there were
(04:49):
drinks and water in plastic cups. And I'm like, okay
or something like very very simple. We walk into this,
you know, this opening and the forest and there was
chairs and I'm like, okay, very simple, only for us
to be led down this path through this entire village
that they built in the middle of the forest with
like glass tops and and oh my god, it was
over the top and it was cool and I had
(05:11):
a good time and I sat at a good table
and it was all good. And these people had a
lot of money, so fine. But at first I'm thinking
the buses were the most like this is a campsite,
like this is no big deal. Oh my god, No,
this was a whole thing. And then I later went
it was like in Conde Nast or one of those
you know, like Vanity Fair or something like one of
these venues that like famous people tried, and you know,
(05:33):
people line up for years to get into this thing.
And I'm going and they're a nice couple, they're still married,
they have kids, they're wonderful people. I hope they stay
together forever. But I'm thinking, man, there was a teepee.
They had a tepee erected at this thing. I mean
that with some lady in a tepee at a wedding. Yeah, yes,
so I remember all of that.
Speaker 1 (05:50):
You know what, Maybe I'm full of it. I am, well,
I am full of it. But yeah, you need a teepee.
Speaker 7 (05:54):
I need Oh my gosh, if you make out with
someone at Kiki's wedding, that would make me so happy.
Speaker 1 (05:59):
I think I'm a know everybody at Kiki's wedding.
Speaker 6 (06:01):
So no, no, no, no, I got so many women
lined up for you at my wedding period.
Speaker 2 (06:08):
Outside contest you're doing where you can buy one hundred
dollars raffles.
Speaker 1 (06:11):
I see what you're up to.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
You're selling raffle tickets so you can have the worst
night of your life as a wedding date.
Speaker 1 (06:16):
I'm not a good wedding date.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
I'm I'm not a good because if dancing is the
main entertainment thing at the wedding, I don't I'm not
a dancer.
Speaker 3 (06:24):
Oh yeah, Shelley's wedding.
Speaker 7 (06:25):
We were trying to get you out there and you
were like, no, I'm good, No, but none of them.
Speaker 2 (06:28):
Maybe you were dancing, but a few of us in
the group, we all sat in the corner and didn't dance,
Like I didn't feel alone, not wanted to dance. And
then Shelley's sister came over and like bullied me.
Speaker 3 (06:38):
She wanted to dance.
Speaker 2 (06:39):
Yeah, and I didn't because at that point, because we came,
we were invited later in the evening, so everybody was
ready to go when we were, and we were not.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
We were not prepared for I wasn't prepared for that.
Speaker 2 (06:52):
I should have pre partied for two hours before I
should have to be, you know, in line with these people.
I think Mike had a shirt off by that point,
which is not uncommon for military life, Shelley's husband to
have his shirt off. But yeah, no, hey, Natalie, how
you doing you? Natalie, you eloped. You've been married for
eight years, and so it cost you very little. I
(07:14):
assume very little, Okay, And.
Speaker 1 (07:18):
We decided you go ahead.
Speaker 8 (07:21):
We decided we weren't gonna do all that wedding stuff,
especially since when we're getting married, we saw so many
people get divorced, especially in our families, and we said
we're not going to waste our time. If this isn't
going to be ten years, we're not going to do
a big party for what.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
See that's interesting, like what if you had a really
simple wedding and then you celebrate making it past the
national average with like a big shin dig and then
you could save slowly for that and make it exactly
what you want. You have all this time because you
don't have to. You can do it ten years, you
can do it fifteen, you do twenty something like that.
So you didn't spend a lot of money, and you're
happy and you're to get and you're not broke at
(08:01):
least not from that, not from that for sure, right
right exactly, you're not broker than broke. Then thank you, Natalie,
have a good day you too. I'm glad you called Sonia.
How you doing, Sonia?
Speaker 3 (08:15):
Oh I'm doing great.
Speaker 8 (08:16):
Fred, how are.
Speaker 1 (08:16):
You doing well?
Speaker 2 (08:17):
You're about to blow up my theory because you spent
less than ten k and your.
Speaker 1 (08:20):
Divorce you got it.
Speaker 3 (08:23):
It was one hundred and fifty people less than ten k.
Granted that was twenty fourteen, so prices were cheaper, but
the theory does not check.
Speaker 2 (08:31):
Out all right, So without lars, if you had it
to do over again. Would you've just had a bigger wedding,
because why not? Or I mean did you get the
wedding that you wanted and it didn't work out? I
mean did you try and save on it?
Speaker 8 (08:46):
Yes?
Speaker 3 (08:46):
Yes, we tried to save on it.
Speaker 1 (08:48):
And I would do it over again.
Speaker 5 (08:50):
Because Fred, my friends still say this was the best
party They've ever went to, was the best party I've
ever thrown.
Speaker 1 (08:56):
E don't want to hear from a lot of people.
I hear that, And this is what Kiki's saying too.
Speaker 2 (08:59):
It's like, look, look, yeah, the wedding whatever, whatever, But like,
this is my time to shine. This is my time
to have my night, my way, do it how I want.
And if it costs ever much, it costs by it
and if it melts down that we still had a
great night. I look at it too, pragmatically, just like
everything else.
Speaker 1 (09:14):
Perfect. Hey, love you guys, have a good day.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
Fred Hayter Lawrence back for twenty twenty six. This is
a woman who, for the last two years has told
us she's forced to listen, but yet listens every day,
probably more than most people. Fred starting out twenty twenty
six with how many girls he soaked up with When
did I even say that?
Speaker 3 (09:31):
You're always bragging?
Speaker 2 (09:34):
Segment is next, where we do the daily tote board
of how many people I've hooked up with?
Speaker 4 (09:38):
You have?
Speaker 1 (09:39):
We haven't gotten there yet, You're ahead of yourself. Fred Hayter,
Lauren Lauren.
Speaker 7 (09:42):
Wait for Jason and I's podcast, where we have every
woman on.
Speaker 2 (09:45):
Oh yeah, we have to yes, Oh my god, He'll
never run out of a podcast.
Speaker 1 (09:51):
That we liked and we miss we have fun. You
have to datum.
Speaker 3 (09:54):
You always bring them around and we get attached to that.
Speaker 2 (09:57):
They now right, kids are happy to.
Speaker 7 (10:03):
Jason I loved, and we're like, where are they?
Speaker 2 (10:05):
Everybody I've ever dated is married with kids are happy
now and when they weren't happy with me makes perfect sense.
They're satisfied with their lives. They feel fulfilled.
Speaker 1 (10:16):
What do you mean?
Speaker 2 (10:18):
I just I love this person because I don't know
what show you're listening to, but it sounds better than
the one that we're doing.
Speaker 1 (10:24):
Hey Aaron, how you doing?
Speaker 7 (10:26):
Hi?
Speaker 5 (10:27):
Good?
Speaker 6 (10:27):
Are you?
Speaker 1 (10:27):
Aaron? I don't know? You know? They say that, like,
what is that saying about haters? Like?
Speaker 2 (10:32):
I think our haters spend way more time with this
show than the people that like it.
Speaker 1 (10:36):
Haters are your motivators.
Speaker 2 (10:37):
I mean, it's I appreciate it, thank you. You know,
if you don't like it, you like it. I don't
care listen. As long as it's possible. I appreciate your
loyalty either way, whether it's love or hate. Aaron, are
you Are you on the lover or the hate side?
I'm just curious.
Speaker 9 (10:49):
Oh, I'm I'm an alum partier.
Speaker 1 (10:52):
This is right, this is fine. You how much have
you spent on your wedding?
Speaker 9 (10:57):
Seventy thousand dollars?
Speaker 1 (10:58):
Seventy thousand dollars and what is a drum roll? Please?
Speaker 9 (11:01):
Seven d seven zero?
Speaker 1 (11:03):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (11:03):
Seven, zer's seventy thousand dollars and drum roll?
Speaker 1 (11:07):
Where are we at?
Speaker 10 (11:09):
Uh?
Speaker 9 (11:09):
Three years happily married and expecting our first baby?
Speaker 1 (11:12):
There you go.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
I think so this is poppycock? Then, is what you're saying?
This twenty thousand dollars thing?
Speaker 9 (11:19):
Yeah? No, that's crap. I mean maybe now it's twenty
thirty five. It would be probably a lot more to
get what I got, But I'm a kiki. It's like
the day of your life. I do what you want,
and honestly, my husband help me get like the green wedding.
So when you find the right one, you side together
and set.
Speaker 2 (11:35):
Up there you go, why not, Aaron, have a good day.
Thanks for calling and for listening.
Speaker 3 (11:39):
Thank you guys, Thanks for coming.
Speaker 1 (11:42):
Some one section Fred is good luck, Chuck? I am?
I am.
Speaker 2 (11:45):
You know you date me and you're like, I need
to get my life together, and then you go find
someone and get married. It's fine now, I will say
there have been two cycles of my life where people
get married, and then there's two cycles of my life.
Speaker 1 (11:58):
Where they come back.
Speaker 2 (11:59):
And we're we're entering into one of those again now
where some of the ones from the past are beginning
to emerge again. The problem is some of them are
not divorced yet. Hi, Sarah, how you doing? It's a
nasty world out there.
Speaker 1 (12:10):
How you do it?
Speaker 9 (12:11):
Hi?
Speaker 3 (12:11):
Good morning, I'm good.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
How are you Sarah? How much you spent great? And
thanks for listening. You spent how much on your wedding?
And where are we at?
Speaker 3 (12:20):
It was about twenty two thousand. We were in Urbana, Illinois,
very very small venue. She had just started out. Honestly,
we spent more on our open bar than we did
anything else.
Speaker 1 (12:31):
Yep, Okay, all right.
Speaker 2 (12:32):
So essentially, though you've written here, you had a barbecue wedding,
spent twenty two K, and you're still together.
Speaker 3 (12:39):
Yes, we are, and we actually moved to Georgia. So
I'm listening from Georgia.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
Well, thank you, thank you very we appreciate that. Thank
you so much.
Speaker 2 (12:46):
And so maybe this twenty thousand dollars thing is right,
because twenty two that's closed. So and you guys are happy.
So thank you, Sarah, Yes, thank you.
Speaker 1 (12:53):
Having a good day.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
Put us on a radio station in Georgia, somewhere we
need Georgia.
Speaker 1 (12:58):
We got North Carolina on lock doing great North. We
had North Dakota on lot.
Speaker 2 (13:03):
Well, no, no one's listening in Charlotte that no one
even knows exists. And then but you know Raleigh, Raleiah, Yes,
they love us in Raleigh, apparently, God bless you. Brandon, Brandon,
you I'm talking to you. Brandon, Hat says yeah, Brandon
decided to hang up sixty five grand still married, he said, So,
(13:26):
I don't know. Maybe this is ALLBS, Yes it is,
but I can see a world where it would make
sense that you if you don't spend as much money
and you don't feel as much pressure to you know,
because a lot of people are going into big, major
debt for this. I mean, who's got seventy thousand dollars
is laying around so you're going into dad. I say
the same thing about rings. People spend all this money
on a ring. Good for you if you can afford it.
(13:47):
But if you can, now you've got these payments and
this pressure. So now you've started your life together with
all these bills that you have to pay, and yet
you're still trying to figure out how to navigate, you know,
being in a relationship, being together. So I just think
it would be rudn't to maybe just spend what you
can afford and then you know, build on it as
you as you stayed together the longer.
Speaker 3 (14:06):
Would you guys be pissed if you traveled?
Speaker 7 (14:08):
I told you guys off the air that I have
friends who like, had this big wedding in Spain and
it was in vogue and it was so elaborate, and
not even less than a year later, they're already divorced. Like,
would you guys be pissed if you like traveled all
that way and he's a guest.
Speaker 6 (14:22):
Yes, if I was a guest i'd be hot.
Speaker 1 (14:24):
Yeah. Did you enjoy yourself though? Because you went to Spain?
Speaker 7 (14:27):
I didn't go, but it looked beautiful. A lot of
my friends went.
Speaker 3 (14:32):
I don't know. I guess I would have to ask them,
but I'd be.
Speaker 1 (14:34):
Like the experience.
Speaker 3 (14:36):
Yeah, it's crazy though.
Speaker 7 (14:38):
Date for ten years, you have this huge wedding and
then what could happen?
Speaker 1 (14:42):
Yeah with a year.
Speaker 2 (14:43):
That's this is why I sometimes wonder if I'm better
off just dating someone forever. You'll give him a ring
in the commitment, because that explain to me, like, how
are you to get it for a decade? I know,
and then divorce within a year. The only thing that
change was that you went to Spain and got married technically,
so you know, I mean, we just skip that part
and they're probably still together.
Speaker 7 (15:02):
I have a friend that's been engaged for five years
and I don't know if they'll ever get married, which
I think is an interesting one.
Speaker 2 (15:08):
Well, and Camlin, people hear me say this or us
talk about this, and they're like, wellether he has a
commitment issue or whatever. No, I don't like I would
get we get together. We can move in together, but
perhaps separate houses connected with a tunnel of some kind,
and then a ring and the whole thing. It has
nothing to do with seeing other people. It has nothing
to do with variety, has nothing to do with the
concern about being with one person for the rest of
my life. It has everything to do with the thing
(15:29):
falling apart, because you see it all the time. People
date forever and ever and ever, they get married and
then it just melts down. Why it's got to be
a mental thing.
Speaker 1 (15:38):
Matt.
Speaker 2 (15:38):
You spent five grand on your wedding, not even five grand, Okay,
well tell me about it. I mean, tell me about
your five thousand on a wedding, because I bet it
was dope.
Speaker 3 (15:47):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
Yeah.
Speaker 10 (15:48):
We had about fifty to seventy five guests, not sure exactly,
wedding on the river, beautiful venue. We decorated everything ourselves,
had a bar catering done.
Speaker 1 (16:01):
It was great.
Speaker 3 (16:02):
I love that.
Speaker 1 (16:02):
And we're together yep, been married twelve years. There you go.
Speaker 2 (16:07):
Okay, so the point for my not my theory, but
this is the research theory. You have a barbecue. Thank you, Matt,
have a good day. Well all christian can be that Christian.
You spent seven hundred dollars.
Speaker 5 (16:20):
What amazing?
Speaker 1 (16:22):
What you spend it under dollars.
Speaker 4 (16:25):
Honestly, I think the judge was about.
Speaker 1 (16:27):
Two hundred and fifty. Yeah, she brought a dress. I
bought a suit and a hotel room. Okay, yeah, we
got we got married.
Speaker 4 (16:39):
We got married in the literally in the beginning of COVID,
so it was twenty twenty. It kind of worked out
perfect because me and me, me and the wife, we
don't really like big events when we have to pay
for fluff people, and so we were outside at a forest
was there pretty much They allowed us to use a
(17:02):
forest reserve for free. We set up our family set
up for us. We had about twelve people only, and
the judge came out at the wedding. We zoomed it
to everybody. Everybody could be on zoom and watched the wedding.
They had about one hundredcent people. But yeah, we didn't
have to pay for over that and Dan we closed
on a house Michael week and a half later.
Speaker 2 (17:23):
So see, that was smart because you probably wound up
spending your money on that instead, and that probably will
work out better in the long term.
Speaker 1 (17:30):
Good for you, Christian, have a good day. That's awesome
you too, well, see.
Speaker 2 (17:33):
And he makes an excellent point too. Think about Kiki.
You don't have to say, like specifically, how many people
are coming to your.
Speaker 1 (17:39):
Wedding two hundred and fifty? WHOA.
Speaker 2 (17:42):
Now, you're not going to answer this question honestly because
I don't know that many people would.
Speaker 1 (17:46):
But of the two point fifty.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
Truly, truly, how many would you demand attend? What percentage?
Twenty seventy five? Okay, even so's twenty five percent of
the people there, which is what about seventy people? I'm
just off the top of my head, are fluff for
people that you're paying However, howmver much money for? Absolutely?
(18:11):
They don't have to be there, yes, and I think
that's true in every wedding. You know, it's all my
mom's you know, coworker has to be there, my dentist
from kindergarten has to be there.
Speaker 1 (18:20):
My Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (18:22):
These people are there and you're paying for this, but
like they are not essential to the operation.
Speaker 6 (18:27):
Yes, but you know, I don't want I'm like making
people feel left out.
Speaker 2 (18:30):
You know.
Speaker 6 (18:31):
I like to be invited to everything, so I feel
like everybody should be invited.
Speaker 1 (18:33):
Okay, but see, there you go.

Speaker 1 (19:18):
Yeah they talk better than the Excite.
Speaker 2 (19:21):
These are the radio blogs on the Fred shows, like
running in our diaries, except we say them aloud.
Speaker 1 (19:27):
We call them blogs.
Speaker 5 (19:28):
Paulina, Yes, take it away, Thank you so much, dear blog.
Speaker 3 (19:32):
So you know, I know we hear the term.
Speaker 5 (19:34):
We talked about it here on the show too, like work, wife, work, husband.
Speaker 3 (19:38):
We've heard of these terms. We're familiar.
Speaker 5 (19:40):
And one term that I've heard before but not in
this way. And I think this applies a lot of
people who work like in maybe offices and stuff, because
then you're around a bunch of different people, different age groups.
Speaker 3 (19:51):
Right, it's the work daughter.
Speaker 1 (19:55):
The work daughter. I thought about this.
Speaker 5 (19:56):
Before I have either, and I'm very offunded. I'm very
upset because my mom she's I guess she's the girl,
right a Cirie high school shoutout. I went to high
school there, like that, that's our that's our territory administration. Yeah,
so she's in the office correct yet and one of
the offices, and you know, she's that girl. And I
know that she's like mentored so many people that have walked,
(20:17):
you know, just through that building, whether they were students
or they've worked there part time, full time, and people
love her. And I love to see that. And you know,
my mom's the best, Like she is just the best.
But now I'm getting a little offriend they were crossing
the line here, because if it's getting a little more
serious than just being like, oh, you know, I love Marta, right,
or I love you know all she's done for me
this and that, it's like, that's my work mom.
Speaker 3 (20:39):
And then she goes yeah, that's my work daughter.
Speaker 5 (20:42):
I'm like, ma, you got two daughters, Like this is
like we're in a fight, Like this is crazy. Meet
me at the train station like this is crazy and
she's like no, like they're my daughters, like I love them.
And she's got sons she apparently. I mean, I'm not a.
Speaker 3 (20:53):
Boy, so whatever, work sons, but work daughters.
Speaker 5 (20:55):
Personally offended, Yes, I am threatened. I feel like you
know that that is my my mommy.
Speaker 3 (21:02):
Yeah, my mommy. It's my mommy, and you cannot the line.
Speaker 2 (21:05):
More than likely prioritize your needs over there is maybe.
Speaker 5 (21:08):
I mean, it's okay, she doesn't like I'm Gronias of
the day.
Speaker 3 (21:12):
I'm sure she's hired of me too.
Speaker 5 (21:13):
But I truly believe that like this has to happen
in offices because when you're other like kind of you know,
places of work, because if you think about it, you've
got like, you know, making this up, miss Cheryl, who's
like whatever, fifty five years old, and then you've got like,
you know, Jessica who's twenty two.
Speaker 3 (21:27):
It's hysterical. Work friend groups are so funny.
Speaker 7 (21:30):
Like I worked at a job where like this woman
was way older than me. And like she was spilling
her like affair secrets to me. She was having an
affair and like, well, like I would have never had
like this. I was like this little girl, like what
is going on?
Speaker 8 (21:42):
You know?
Speaker 3 (21:43):
But it's funny.
Speaker 2 (21:44):
Well so, so your mom is showing motherly qualities and
attributes to other young women and and you feel as
though you're encroaching on your territory.
Speaker 5 (21:56):
I thought it was one, but there's there have been many,
and there's more to comum.
Speaker 8 (21:59):
Shit.
Speaker 1 (22:00):
I think it's very sweet.
Speaker 3 (22:01):
Actually, it is the sweetest things.
Speaker 2 (22:03):
You know who she is and how what she means
to people, and yes, yeah, yeah, we're.
Speaker 5 (22:07):
Going through some stuff right now with my mom, and
I get a lot of messages your mom means the
world to me.
Speaker 3 (22:11):
I love her so much.
Speaker 5 (22:13):
And I'm like, and they're my age or younger, they're
actually younger, and I'm like that that is so good.
Speaker 1 (22:17):
I respond back, the hell up.
Speaker 5 (22:18):
Yeah, I said that my birth certificate and I'm like,
that's my mommy.
Speaker 2 (22:21):
You're like, that's weird, that's weird think to respond combatively
to people who you know are cheering her on.
Speaker 1 (22:26):
But yeah, yeah, exactly.
Speaker 2 (22:27):
The middle finger emoji is a little aggressive but
This is the Freas Show.
Speaker 2 (00:01):
Kelly Clark City is returning to Las Vegas in twenty
twenty six for her studio sessions Las Vegas Residency. You
can enter now for a chance to win a trip
for two to the July twenty fourth show, a two
night hotel state at Flamingo Hotel and Casino in Las
Vegas July twenty third through the twenty fifth and round
trip airfare. Text Kelly to five seven, seven three nine
(00:23):
right now for a chance to win. A confirmation text

All thanks to Live Nation. I'm about to save you,
Kiki save me. I'm about to save you right now.
You're gonna thank me later. We don't need a wedding swing.
We don't need a photo shooting you all over the place.
We don't need fireworks pyrotechnics. We don't need four bands.
(00:45):
We don't need venue changes. We don't need you levitating in.
We don't need raisin canes afterwards. We don't need anything.
Speaker 1 (00:53):
Right, what are you talking about?
Speaker 2 (00:54):
Research suggests that how much couples spend on their wedding
may influence the chance that their marriage lasts.
Speaker 1 (01:02):
Who cares about that?
Speaker 3 (01:05):
Who cares if it last? You know, we had a
good time.
Speaker 4 (01:09):
Some time.
Speaker 1 (01:10):
We just want to have a big day, and it doesn't.
Speaker 2 (01:12):
You already made it this far right, and by that
point it will be what nine years have been together,
nine and a half years by the time you get
to the altar. But who cares if it all melts
down right away? As long as it was a great night,
we had.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
A good run. We went out with a bang.
Speaker 2 (01:25):
Studies showed the couples who spend more than about twenty
thousand dollars on their weddings are significantly more likely to
divorce later than those who spend a more modest amount,
while lower costs se wait spend more than twenty on
their wedding are significantly more likely to divorce. Yeah, okay,
so the more you that's why the way right it quickly,
The more you spend, the more likely you already get divorced.
(01:47):
According to this, lower cost ceremonies tend to be linked
with stronger long term marriages. The takeaway keeping wedding expenses
reasonable and avoiding starting married life under heavy financial strain
actually help your relationship thrive. I've been saying this, You've
been saying this single guy, never engaged, never married. I've
been telling you guys how.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
To do it.
Speaker 5 (02:08):
Gives good advice, though you do I hate I'll give
you that party, that's your thing.
Speaker 2 (02:12):
Yeah, I have a lot, a lot of opinions and
a lot of perspectives. I've made a career out of it.
It doesn't mean that I could live my own life properly.
That No one said that. That was not part of
the deal.
Speaker 3 (02:23):
No, did you say twenty thousand dollars?
Speaker 1 (02:24):
Twenty thousand dollars?
Speaker 5 (02:25):
It still seems really cheap, Well right, I mean, but yeah,
it seems like a micro more.
Speaker 1 (02:30):
Twenty is the threshold. So people spend you know, a
lot more than.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
That, I guess, but oh yeah, I'm assuming. So I said,
you don't even have to spend a lot of money.
Speaker 1 (02:37):
Well, I know I have to.
Speaker 6 (02:39):
But you know, I agree at this study, and I'm
sure is very true because think about it, you don't.
You don't go into your marriage with a bunch of debts.
The more money you spend means the more people you
have at your wedding. The more people you have in
your wedding, so there's probably less family drama, you know,
And so you're not good for them.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
I want to take a quick survey though, eight five
five five three five you can contact the same number.
First of all, did you spend a ton of money
on your wedding?
Speaker 1 (03:03):
One? Two? Are you still married? Three? Was it worth it?
Truly worth it? Four?
Speaker 3 (03:10):
What's your favorite calling?
Speaker 2 (03:12):
What is your social Security number? And your mother's maiden name.
But I'm serious, I mean I said this a thousand
times and reference to a bunch of different people's weddings.
It's like, I don't remember what I ate at ninety
nine percent of the weddings I've been to. I remember,
like some of the cool stuff, Like I remember at
the end somebody brought out like sliders or something at
the least someone like McDonald's cheeseburgers at the very very
(03:33):
end of it.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
That's cool.
Speaker 3 (03:35):
Yeah, I love the drunk food.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
I mean that's cool. But like that is the jump
was right the cheapest part of the night. Somebody rand
it ran on down there and you know, ordered one
hundred hamburgers and pass them out at the end. I
mean I could have done that for you. I could
adore dash it for less than you spent.
Speaker 7 (03:49):
I will say, the most fun weddings I've been to
are the ones that are more chill. Like I just
like thinking of all the weddings I've been to, like
in a barn with solo cops or you know, just
like a chill been as.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
Simple and and maybe it wasn't as much money to
do it that way. I mean, who knows, maybe the
barn with the solo cups actually.
Speaker 1 (04:06):
Logistically was very expensive or hard to do. I don't know.
It was at their barn and there's there.
Speaker 7 (04:10):
So it was in West Virginia, and okay, yeah it was.
Speaker 3 (04:13):
Yeah, it was.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
I think the weddings that were intended to look simple,
but like they were in the middle. Like I went
to one wedding I didn't know what I was getting into.
It was somewhere in Colorado, I can't remember, breckon Ridge,
Steamboat maybe Steamboat was in Steamboat.
Speaker 3 (04:26):
I don't know why.
Speaker 1 (04:26):
It was in the middle of a forest.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
There was like a clearing and it literally was just
chairs and trees, and I'm like, well this now, of
course we were all busts there on luxury. I mean,
this was this wedding probably customiated luck and actuality. It
probably could, but like at first it's very simple. Like
we pull up, there's like trees, the forests, like there
was I think I think there was like there were
(04:49):
drinks and water in plastic cups. And I'm like, okay
or something like very very simple. We walk into this,
you know, this opening and the forest and there was
chairs and I'm like, okay, very simple, only for us
to be led down this path through this entire village
that they built in the middle of the forest with
like glass tops and and oh my god, it was
over the top and it was cool and I had
(05:11):
a good time and I sat at a good table
and it was all good. And these people had a
lot of money, so fine. But at first I'm thinking
the buses were the most like this is a campsite,
like this is no big deal. Oh my god, No,
this was a whole thing. And then I later went
it was like in Conde Nast or one of those
you know, like Vanity Fair or something like one of
these venues that like famous people tried, and you know,
(05:33):
people line up for years to get into this thing.
And I'm going and they're a nice couple, they're still married,
they have kids, they're wonderful people. I hope they stay
together forever. But I'm thinking, man, there was a teepee.
They had a tepee erected at this thing. I mean
that with some lady in a tepee at a wedding. Yeah, yes,
so I remember all of that.
Speaker 1 (05:50):
You know what, Maybe I'm full of it. I am, well,
I am full of it. But yeah, you need a teepee.
Speaker 7 (05:54):
I need Oh my gosh, if you make out with
someone at Kiki's wedding, that would make me so happy.
Speaker 1 (05:59):
I think I'm a know everybody at Kiki's wedding.
Speaker 6 (06:01):
So no, no, no, no, I got so many women
lined up for you at my wedding period.
Speaker 2 (06:08):
Outside contest you're doing where you can buy one hundred
dollars raffles.
Speaker 1 (06:11):
I see what you're up to.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
You're selling raffle tickets so you can have the worst
night of your life as a wedding date.
Speaker 1 (06:16):
I'm not a good wedding date.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
I'm I'm not a good because if dancing is the
main entertainment thing at the wedding, I don't I'm not
a dancer.
Speaker 3 (06:24):
Oh yeah, Shelley's wedding.
Speaker 7 (06:25):
We were trying to get you out there and you
were like, no, I'm good, No, but none of them.
Speaker 2 (06:28):
Maybe you were dancing, but a few of us in
the group, we all sat in the corner and didn't dance,
Like I didn't feel alone, not wanted to dance. And
then Shelley's sister came over and like bullied me.
Speaker 3 (06:38):
She wanted to dance.
Speaker 2 (06:39):
Yeah, and I didn't because at that point, because we came,
we were invited later in the evening, so everybody was
ready to go when we were, and we were not.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
We were not prepared for I wasn't prepared for that.
Speaker 2 (06:52):
I should have pre partied for two hours before I
should have to be, you know, in line with these people.
I think Mike had a shirt off by that point,
which is not uncommon for military life, Shelley's husband to
have his shirt off. But yeah, no, hey, Natalie, how
you doing you? Natalie, you eloped. You've been married for
eight years, and so it cost you very little. I
(07:14):
assume very little, Okay, And.
Speaker 1 (07:18):
We decided you go ahead.
Speaker 8 (07:21):
We decided we weren't gonna do all that wedding stuff,
especially since when we're getting married, we saw so many
people get divorced, especially in our families, and we said
we're not going to waste our time. If this isn't
going to be ten years, we're not going to do
a big party for what.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
See that's interesting, like what if you had a really
simple wedding and then you celebrate making it past the
national average with like a big shin dig and then
you could save slowly for that and make it exactly
what you want. You have all this time because you
don't have to. You can do it ten years, you
can do it fifteen, you do twenty something like that.
So you didn't spend a lot of money, and you're
happy and you're to get and you're not broke at
(08:01):
least not from that, not from that for sure, right
right exactly, you're not broker than broke. Then thank you, Natalie,
have a good day you too. I'm glad you called Sonia.
How you doing, Sonia?
Speaker 3 (08:15):
Oh I'm doing great.
Speaker 8 (08:16):
Fred, how are.
Speaker 1 (08:16):
You doing well?
Speaker 2 (08:17):
You're about to blow up my theory because you spent
less than ten k and your.
Speaker 1 (08:20):
Divorce you got it.
Speaker 3 (08:23):
It was one hundred and fifty people less than ten k.
Granted that was twenty fourteen, so prices were cheaper, but
the theory does not check.
Speaker 2 (08:31):
Out all right, So without lars, if you had it
to do over again. Would you've just had a bigger wedding,
because why not? Or I mean did you get the
wedding that you wanted and it didn't work out? I
mean did you try and save on it?
Speaker 8 (08:46):
Yes?
Speaker 3 (08:46):
Yes, we tried to save on it.
Speaker 1 (08:48):
And I would do it over again.
Speaker 5 (08:50):
Because Fred, my friends still say this was the best
party They've ever went to, was the best party I've
ever thrown.
Speaker 1 (08:56):
E don't want to hear from a lot of people.
I hear that, And this is what Kiki's saying too.
Speaker 2 (08:59):
It's like, look, look, yeah, the wedding whatever, whatever, But like,
this is my time to shine. This is my time
to have my night, my way, do it how I want.
And if it costs ever much, it costs by it
and if it melts down that we still had a
great night. I look at it too, pragmatically, just like
everything else.
Speaker 1 (09:14):
Perfect. Hey, love you guys, have a good day.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
Fred Hayter Lawrence back for twenty twenty six. This is
a woman who, for the last two years has told
us she's forced to listen, but yet listens every day,
probably more than most people. Fred starting out twenty twenty
six with how many girls he soaked up with When
did I even say that?
Speaker 3 (09:31):
You're always bragging?
Speaker 2 (09:34):
Segment is next, where we do the daily tote board
of how many people I've hooked up with?
Speaker 4 (09:38):

Jason I loved, and we're like, where are they?
Speaker 2 (10:05):

They're satisfied with their lives. They feel fulfilled.
Speaker 1 (10:16):
What do you mean?
Speaker 2 (10:18):
I just I love this person because I don't know
what show you're listening to, but it sounds better than

Speaker 1 (10:27):
Aaron? I don't know? You know? They say that, like,
what is that saying about haters? Like?
Speaker 2 (10:32):
I think our haters spend way more time with this
show than the people that like it.
Speaker 1 (10:36):
Haters are your motivators.
Speaker 2 (10:37):
I mean, it's I appreciate it, thank you. You know,
if you don't like it, you like it. I don't
care listen. As long as it's possible. I appreciate your
loyalty either way, whether it's love or hate. Aaron, are
you Are you on the lover or the hate side?
I'm just curious.
Speaker 9 (10:49):
Oh, I'm I'm an alum partier.
Speaker 1 (10:52):
This is right, this is fine. You how much have
you spent on your wedding?
Speaker 9 (10:57):
Seventy thousand dollars?
Speaker 1 (10:58):

Uh?
Speaker 9 (11:09):
Three years happily married and expecting our first baby?
Speaker 1 (11:12):
There you go.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
I think so this is poppycock? Then, is what you're saying?
This twenty thousand dollars thing?
Speaker 9 (11:19):
Yeah? No, that's crap. I mean maybe now it's twenty
thirty five. It would be probably a lot more to
get what I got, But I'm a kiki. It's like
the day of your life. I do what you want,
and honestly, my husband help me get like the green wedding.
So when you find the right one, you side together
and set.
Speaker 2 (11:35):
Up there you go, why not, Aaron, have a good day.
Thanks for calling and for listening.
Speaker 3 (11:39):
Thank you guys, Thanks for coming.
Speaker 1 (11:42):
Some one section Fred is good luck, Chuck? I am?
I am.
Speaker 2 (11:45):
You know you date me and you're like, I need
to get my life together, and then you go find
someone and get married. It's fine now, I will say
there have been two cycles of my life where people
get married, and then there's two cycles of my life.
Speaker 1 (11:58):
Where they come back.
Speaker 2 (11:59):
And we're we're entering into one of those again now
where some of the ones from the past are beginning
to emerge again. The problem is some of them are
not divorced yet. Hi, Sarah, how you doing? It's a
nasty world out there.
Speaker 1 (12:10):
How you do it?
Speaker 9 (12:11):
Hi?
Speaker 3 (12:11):
Good morning, I'm good.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
How are you Sarah? How much you spent great? And
thanks for listening. You spent how much on your wedding?
And where are we at?
Speaker 3 (12:20):
It was about twenty two thousand. We were in Urbana, Illinois,
very very small venue. She had just started out. Honestly,
we spent more on our open bar than we did
anything else.
Speaker 1 (12:31):
Yep, Okay, all right.
Speaker 2 (12:32):
So essentially, though you've written here, you had a barbecue wedding,
spent twenty two K, and you're still together.
Speaker 3 (12:39):
Yes, we are, and we actually moved to Georgia. So
I'm listening from Georgia.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
Well, thank you, thank you very we appreciate that. Thank
you so much.
Speaker 2 (12:46):
And so maybe this twenty thousand dollars thing is right,
because twenty two that's closed. So and you guys are happy.
So thank you, Sarah, Yes, thank you.
Speaker 1 (12:53):
Having a good day.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
Put us on a radio station in Georgia, somewhere we
need Georgia.
Speaker 1 (12:58):
We got North Carolina on lock doing great North. We
had North Dakota on lot.
Speaker 2 (13:03):
Well, no, no one's listening in Charlotte that no one
even knows exists. And then but you know Raleigh, Raleiah, Yes,
they love us in Raleigh, apparently, God bless you. Brandon, Brandon,
you I'm talking to you. Brandon, Hat says yeah, Brandon
decided to hang up sixty five grand still married, he said, So,
(13:26):
I don't know. Maybe this is ALLBS, Yes it is,
but I can see a world where it would make
sense that you if you don't spend as much money
and you don't feel as much pressure to you know,
because a lot of people are going into big, major
debt for this. I mean, who's got seventy thousand dollars
is laying around so you're going into dad. I say
the same thing about rings. People spend all this money
on a ring. Good for you if you can afford it.
(13:47):
But if you can, now you've got these payments and
this pressure. So now you've started your life together with
all these bills that you have to pay, and yet
you're still trying to figure out how to navigate, you know,
being in a relationship, being together. So I just think
it would be rudn't to maybe just spend what you
can afford and then you know, build on it as
you as you stayed together the longer.
Speaker 3 (14:06):
Would you guys be pissed if you traveled?
Speaker 7 (14:08):
I told you guys off the air that I have
friends who like, had this big wedding in Spain and
it was in vogue and it was so elaborate, and
not even less than a year later, they're already divorced. Like,
would you guys be pissed if you like traveled all
that way and he's a guest.
Speaker 6 (14:22):
Yes, if I was a guest i'd be hot.
Speaker 1 (14:24):
Yeah. Did you enjoy yourself though? Because you went to Spain?
Speaker 7 (14:27):
I didn't go, but it looked beautiful. A lot of
my friends went.
Speaker 3 (14:32):
I don't know. I guess I would have to ask them,
but I'd be.
Speaker 1 (14:34):
Like the experience.
Speaker 3 (14:36):
Yeah, it's crazy though.
Speaker 7 (14:38):
Date for ten years, you have this huge wedding and
then what could happen?
Speaker 1 (14:42):
Yeah with a year.
Speaker 2 (14:43):
That's this is why I sometimes wonder if I'm better
off just dating someone forever. You'll give him a ring
in the commitment, because that explain to me, like, how
are you to get it for a decade? I know,
and then divorce within a year. The only thing that
change was that you went to Spain and got married technically,
so you know, I mean, we just skip that part
and they're probably still together.
Speaker 7 (15:02):
I have a friend that's been engaged for five years
and I don't know if they'll ever get married, which
I think is an interesting one.
Speaker 2 (15:08):
Well, and Camlin, people hear me say this or us
talk about this, and they're like, wellether he has a
commitment issue or whatever. No, I don't like I would
get we get together. We can move in together, but
perhaps separate houses connected with a tunnel of some kind,
and then a ring and the whole thing. It has
nothing to do with seeing other people. It has nothing
to do with variety, has nothing to do with the
concern about being with one person for the rest of
my life. It has everything to do with the thing
(15:29):
falling apart, because you see it all the time. People
date forever and ever and ever, they get married and
then it just melts down. Why it's got to be
a mental thing.
Speaker 1 (15:38):
Matt.
Speaker 2 (15:38):
You spent five grand on your wedding, not even five grand, Okay,
well tell me about it. I mean, tell me about
your five thousand on a wedding, because I bet it
was dope.
Speaker 3 (15:47):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
Yeah.
Speaker 10 (15:48):
We had about fifty to seventy five guests, not sure exactly,
wedding on the river, beautiful venue. We decorated everything ourselves,
had a bar catering done.
Speaker 1 (16:01):
It was great.
Speaker 3 (16:02):
I love that.
Speaker 1 (16:02):
And we're together yep, been married twelve years. There you go.
Speaker 2 (16:07):
Okay, so the point for my not my theory, but
this is the research theory. You have a barbecue. Thank you, Matt,
have a good day. Well all christian can be that Christian.
You spent seven hundred dollars.
Speaker 5 (16:20):
What amazing?
Speaker 1 (16:22):
What you spend it under dollars.
Speaker 4 (16:25):
Honestly, I think the judge was about.
Speaker 1 (16:27):
Two hundred and fifty. Yeah, she brought a dress. I
bought a suit and a hotel room. Okay, yeah, we
got we got married.
Speaker 4 (16:39):
We got married in the literally in the beginning of COVID,
so it was twenty twenty. It kind of worked out
perfect because me and me, me and the wife, we
don't really like big events when we have to pay
for fluff people, and so we were outside at a forest
was there pretty much They allowed us to use a
(17:02):
forest reserve for free. We set up our family set
up for us. We had about twelve people only, and
the judge came out at the wedding. We zoomed it
to everybody. Everybody could be on zoom and watched the wedding.
They had about one hundredcent people. But yeah, we didn't
have to pay for over that and Dan we closed
on a house Michael week and a half later.
Speaker 2 (17:23):
So see, that was smart because you probably wound up
spending your money on that instead, and that probably will
work out better in the long term.
Speaker 1 (17:30):
Good for you, Christian, have a good day. That's awesome
you too, well, see.
Speaker 2 (17:33):
And he makes an excellent point too. Think about Kiki.
You don't have to say, like specifically, how many people
are coming to your.
Speaker 1 (17:39):
Wedding two hundred and fifty? WHOA.
Speaker 2 (17:42):
Now, you're not going to answer this question honestly because
I don't know that many people would.
Speaker 1 (17:46):
But of the two point fifty.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
Truly, truly, how many would you demand attend? What percentage?
Twenty seventy five? Okay, even so's twenty five percent of
the people there, which is what about seventy people? I'm
just off the top of my head, are fluff for
people that you're paying However, howmver much money for? Absolutely?
(18:11):
They don't have to be there, yes, and I think
that's true in every wedding. You know, it's all my
mom's you know, coworker has to be there, my dentist
from kindergarten has to be there.
Speaker 1 (18:20):
My Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (18:22):
These people are there and you're paying for this, but
like they are not essential to the operation.
Speaker 6 (18:27):
Yes, but you know, I don't want I'm like making
people feel left out.
Speaker 2 (18:30):
You know.
Speaker 6 (18:31):
I like to be invited to everything, so I feel
like everybody should be invited.
Speaker 1 (18:33):
Okay, but see, there you go.
Speaker 2 (18:34):
That is money that you're having to spend on something
that if you just hey, if if we can do the.
Speaker 6 (18:38):
United Center, I would do it.
Speaker 1 (18:40):
Oh God, absolutely, yeah, I know we can get into

Speaker 1 (19:18):
Yeah they talk better than the Excite.
Speaker 2 (19:21):
These are the radio blogs on the Fred shows, like
running in our diaries, except we say them aloud.
Speaker 1 (19:27):
We call them blogs.
Speaker 5 (19:28):
Paulina, Yes, take it away, Thank you so much, dear blog.
Speaker 3 (19:32):
So you know, I know we hear the term.
Speaker 5 (19:34):
We talked about it here on the show too, like work, wife, work, husband.
Speaker 3 (19:38):
We've heard of these terms. We're familiar.
Speaker 5 (19:40):
And one term that I've heard before but not in
this way. And I think this applies a lot of
people who work like in maybe offices and stuff, because
then you're around a bunch of different people, different age groups.
Speaker 3 (19:51):
Right, it's the work daughter.
Speaker 1 (19:55):
The work daughter. I thought about this.
Speaker 5 (19:56):
Before I have either, and I'm very offunded. I'm very
upset because my mom she's I guess she's the girl,
right a Cirie high school shoutout. I went to high
school there, like that, that's our that's our territory administration. Yeah,
so she's in the office correct yet and one of
the offices, and you know, she's that girl. And I
know that she's like mentored so many people that have walked,
(20:17):
you know, just through that building, whether they were students
or they've worked there part time, full time, and people
love her. And I love to see that. And you know,
my mom's the best, Like she is just the best.
But now I'm getting a little offriend they were crossing
the line here, because if it's getting a little more
serious than just being like, oh, you know, I love Marta, right,
or I love you know all she's done for me
this and that, it's like, that's my work mom.
Speaker 3 (20:39):
And then she goes yeah, that's my work daughter.
Speaker 5 (20:42):
I'm like, ma, you got two daughters, Like this is
like we're in a fight, Like this is crazy. Meet
me at the train station like this is crazy and
she's like no, like they're my daughters, like I love them.
And she's got sons she apparently. I mean, I'm not a.
Speaker 3 (20:53):
Boy, so whatever, work sons, but work daughters.
Speaker 5 (20:55):
Personally offended, Yes, I am threatened. I feel like you
know that that is my my mommy.
Speaker 3 (21:02):
Yeah, my mommy. It's my mommy, and you cannot the line.
Speaker 2 (21:05):
More than likely prioritize your needs over there is maybe.
Speaker 5 (21:08):
I mean, it's okay, she doesn't like I'm Gronias of
the day.
Speaker 3 (21:12):
I'm sure she's hired of me too.
Speaker 5 (21:13):
But I truly believe that like this has to happen
in offices because when you're other like kind of you know,
places of work, because if you think about it, you've
got like, you know, making this up, miss Cheryl, who's
like whatever, fifty five years old, and then you've got like,
you know, Jessica who's twenty two.
Speaker 3 (21:27):
It's hysterical. Work friend groups are so funny.
Speaker 7 (21:30):
Like I worked at a job where like this woman
was way older than me. And like she was spilling
her like affair secrets to me. She was having an
affair and like, well, like I would have never had
like this. I was like this little girl, like what
is going on?
Speaker 8 (21:42):
You know?
Speaker 3 (21:43):
But it's funny.
Speaker 2 (21:44):
Well so, so your mom is showing motherly qualities and
attributes to other young women and and you feel as
though you're encroaching on your territory.
Speaker 5 (21:56):
I thought it was one, but there's there have been many,
and there's more to comum.
Speaker 8 (21:59):
Shit.
Speaker 1 (22:00):
I think it's very sweet.
Speaker 3 (22:01):
Actually, it is the sweetest things.
Speaker 2 (22:03):
You know who she is and how what she means
to people, and yes, yeah, yeah, we're.
Speaker 5 (22:07):
Going through some stuff right now with my mom, and
I get a lot of messages your mom means the
world to me.
Speaker 3 (22:11):
I love her so much.
Speaker 5 (22:13):
And I'm like, and they're my age or younger, they're
actually younger, and I'm like that that is so good.
Speaker 1 (22:17):
I respond back, the hell up.
Speaker 5 (22:18):
Yeah, I said that my birth certificate and I'm like,
that's my mommy.
Speaker 2 (22:21):
You're like, that's weird, that's weird think to respond combatively
to people who you know are cheering her on.
Speaker 1 (22:26):
But yeah, yeah, exactly.
Speaker 2 (22:27):
The middle finger emoji is a little aggressive but
