Speaker 1 (00:00):
The right show is on Friend's Biggest Stories of the Day.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
I mean, I'm gonna sound like a like a jerk,
but I feel like the people who get super hype
about the high school reunion are the people who peaked
in high school, because, like, I don't know, I don't
get I'm not really hype about anything that happened twenty
five years ago.
Speaker 3 (00:21):
I miss it so much.
Speaker 2 (00:22):
High school, Yes, I see, I don't. It's not so
much better. I left that place and they got better, better, better, better.
Speaker 3 (00:28):
I can't better.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
Really, No, did you peak in high school? You didn't
look at you. You're here on this show. You got
all these businesses, and yeah, you got three towels for
the business, you got your You're almost a realtor, spray tan,
what don't I do? Philanthropist power suit wearing TV on
on Lady. So I would not say you peaked in
(00:50):
high school. You had a beautiful daughter and a husband.
Speaker 3 (00:53):
You thank you.
Speaker 4 (00:54):
I feel like that was just a timeless had and
people say, oh, I went to college and had like
way more fun, and listen, I didn't. I had that
college experience. It wasn't necessarily fun. It just was what
it was. If that makes any sense.
Speaker 1 (01:05):
Yeah, high school wasn't bad.
Speaker 2 (01:07):
I just I was in no hurry to like go
stand in a room with a bunch of people that
I hadn't talked to in a very long time, Like
what are we going to talk about?
Speaker 1 (01:13):
You know, I don't know.
Speaker 3 (01:14):
It's very awkward, it can be. I can see that.
Speaker 2 (01:17):
And people were really offended that I wasn't into the
and I didn't go. I mean, and I don't think
they were offending because I wasn't there. They were just
offended that there were people that weren't as excited about it.
I mean, we had that girl from high school on
the show and she was not I haven't spoken with her,
said I don't. She'd mad at me.
Speaker 1 (01:32):
I didn't go, and I didn't give any money either,
And I'm like, well why, I mean, it wasn't the.
Speaker 2 (01:36):
Greatest time of my life. I've moved on. I've you know,
I don't know, I've accomplished other things.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
Yeah, it's all good. I just I don't know what
we're gonna do. We're gonna go, I mean, that's it.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
I also think that normally these things are all about
the alumni relations people getting access to you to get
money from you. That's at least what I've found about
the stuff they do for our school is they'll be like,
you know, they'll be like, oh, we're having a cotchin
function and they have it like the Friday before Christmas
because they know everybody's gonna be in town or whatever.
And then you show up and it all it is
(02:07):
is after school and then it's like here and as
you walk in, you could donate to this thing and
that thing in this scholarship and that thing. It's like, oh,
so this free drink is not free. Actually it's you
just want my money, you know. You wanted to get
a look and see if I'm on ozampik or not.
And if I'm on o Zampiic, I mean, they've got
a couple extra dollars to give to you. That's what
I feel like is happening. It's all good if you
want to go, but I feel like, you know, if
(02:28):
you if you were going to keep in touch with people,
then you would have right Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm.
Speaker 3 (02:35):
Like fifty to fifty with it.
Speaker 5 (02:36):
Like I used to really be all in and I'm
like probably in the high school was the time, like
we had a great time, but it's just like now,
I just like everybody's weird.
Speaker 1 (02:45):
Look at you. The Kentucky Derby was on Saturday. Let's
listen to this. I'm so exciting. I have no idea
what's going on, but it's so excited coming with him
money out shot this guy. Two of them go break
bye with a prolo journalism, good sovereignty. Those of those
don't go the last sixteenth.
Speaker 6 (03:05):
Of a mile.
Speaker 1 (03:06):
Sovereignty is taking the lead. Journalism is second for the
look side, so sovereignty one.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
Okay, And I was asking a question I ask every year,
but do you think these horses know how badass they are?
Speaker 6 (03:18):
Like?
Speaker 2 (03:18):
Do you think they know when they won that they
won and that they're the best, or do you think
they're just like I don't know. I mean, I just
I've showed up so I don't get fined. You know,
I'm just here so I don't get fined. Like, I
don't know, do you think those I know they're treated well.
I would like to believe they're treated well, those horses,
because if you win, then that you know, it's like
three million dollars or something that the owner gets. So
(03:41):
I would like to believe that they're well treated anyway.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
But I don't know.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
I mean, do you think they know that everyone in
the world is watching them and they're the fastest, best
horse of the day.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
Or they're just like, well, I don't know, where's my carrot?
Speaker 5 (03:53):
That feel like they have to know, because I'm sure
the owners like brush them all day and talk nice
to them, and you know, worship they better.
Speaker 2 (04:01):
I don't know, but you get you get ten percent
of the winnings. I looked up if you're the jockey,
so three hundred grand, which doesn't seem like enough because
you get slung mud all over you and you could die.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
You could absolutely die.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
If you fall off that thing and you're in the
middle of the pack and then the other horses run
over you, You're dead. You're gone, it's over. Or if
you get thrown off a horse and like land the
wrong way or whatever. So I think you should get
more than three hundred thousand dollars for that. I think
it should pay better. I also want to know why
all my friends become horse experts. On the day of
the Kentucky Dearly, I mean I was in a group
of people and I would say there was probably five
(04:34):
thousand dollars among I didn't. I didn't bet on anything,
but there were five thousand dollars among like ten people
being bet on various parlays and they're trading tips.
Speaker 1 (04:43):
Well, you know this one does well in the mud.
And I'm going, what do you like go to the
track of the weekend, Like, how do you know? Are
you scouting? Like how do you how do you know that?
Speaker 7 (04:53):
How do you know that?
Speaker 3 (04:54):
Kale listen. I don't know the horses like I know
my Saquon Barkley. You know, I don't know how as
they can run. I don't know how they do in
these conditions.
Speaker 8 (05:02):
I haven't spread out to the horse race button yet,
but I don't trust it. So so a different person
owns the horse, you're saying, obviously than the jockey, right.
Speaker 2 (05:10):
Yeah, and the jockey doesn't know they hire the jockey.
Oh okay, they're like free agents. So like jockey, some
jockeys are like the best jockey, I guess. And I
don't know a lot about this, but my understanding is
you you can hire a jockey who's won before and
then they're more skilled than others or whatever.
Speaker 3 (05:26):
Where do you go to find a jockey? Like is
there a website or is it like kick so.
Speaker 2 (05:30):
There's like a match swipe pride swipe place. Okay, there's
a jockey thing, yes, yes, yeah, I know it is.
It's like I really don't, Oh, I like this guy's credentials.
Oh okay, it's five threes light, you know I.
Speaker 3 (05:43):
Would guess, yeah, I want to know my jockey's overcolor.
Speaker 1 (05:46):
Yeah yeah, I mean I believe you can hire whatever
jockey you want.
Speaker 3 (05:51):
And they're small little things, aren't they They are, but.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
They had you know, because like me, I would slow
the horse down, you know, from six five to hundred
aerodynamically that ain't gonna work, and the horses look at
me and be like huh uh. I always felt that way,
like when I could, I was always I'm always tall.
But it's like, did the horses look at the people
who are about to go on a little Western ride,
you know when they're on vacation in Albuquerque or whatever.
Speaker 1 (06:13):
You know, the horse is looking oh no, no, no, no,
no no.
Speaker 8 (06:16):
Always bring out this huge horse for my Stebney because
he's about right, and it's like they bring oh, here's
you know, big Bertha, and he's like this dude on
a horse, Like I don't you know all.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
The horses are walking around looking at the tourists of
the day and they're like, oh god, not her, no,
not her, no no no no no no no no,
but started limping, you know, not interested.
Speaker 5 (06:35):
Yeah, people need to stop doing that, like you need.
Everything is not for everybody. Don't do ride to jet skis,
leave the horse back alone.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
Please.
Speaker 2 (06:44):
Don't know if you know this, Kiki, but we're going
to Toronto just speak at a conference. And I think
you know that part. I think you knew that part.
But they're big on horses there. And I actually signed
this up for a horseback riding tour of the city.
Speaker 3 (06:55):
Now you just sign me up there, I know I did.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
I did. Actually, yeah, pas limit their donkeys. Actually we
read around donkeys. You never heard you never heard of
the Toronto donkeys. Oh yeah no, I thought I figured
that was the best way for us to bond and
see the city. No, I'm more of a camel type
of girl. And then I signed up for a running
tour as well. It's a running tour. Yeah, it's an
exciting way to see all the different things they have there.
Speaker 3 (07:17):
Good thing I don't have my real ID.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
Yeah, no, your passport work fun. It's all good.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
So, in case you were wondering, primate experts have weighed
in on the one hundred men versus gorilla debate that
we got into last week. So a got named Michael Stern,
who was the former curator of Primates at the Philadelphia Zoom,
has weighed in on the one hundred men versus gorilla debate.
Who would win one hundred men versus a gorilla? I
still contend that gorilla would win. I think as long
(07:47):
as there were no weapons or unfair advantages, I believe
that you know, the gorilla could take you out one
by one. I think it would have to be a
coordinated effort of strength all at the same time, because
they say that the gorillas are what like ten times
stronger than their weight or whatever I told you on Friday.
But he said, the debate doesn't have much to go
on because a gorilla would see that it's outnumbered and
(08:07):
then it would run.
Speaker 1 (08:08):
He said.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
The gorilla would sprint through the nearest line of men,
knock one or two over, and then make a run
for it. He said, for the most part, gorillas are
gentle creatures, and the talk of them fighting men.
Speaker 1 (08:17):
Is hurting their reputation. Michael certain speaks for all gorillas. Okay.
He stood in front of a podium.
Speaker 2 (08:23):
Okay, A bunch of guerilla stood behind him, and he said, look,
this is hurting the reputation.
Speaker 1 (08:28):
Of my client.
Speaker 2 (08:31):
He did share that a primate could do damage to
a group of humans. Chimpanzee. I guess that is a primate.
It could do damage. So not a gorilla, but a
chimpanzee is what we're worried about. Okness, our moment of
zen this morning. Shout out to the Daily Show. This
is Elon Musk. Now, we don't get political here. We're
(08:52):
really not trying to be political. I just want you
to count the number of times he says pandas in
this thing he's talking about on Fox News of course,
about how Doge you know, his little organization that's trying
to find savings in the government, ways to cut stuff.
That he's upset because you know some of these organizations
they try and save baby pandas, but they don't have
a panda.
Speaker 7 (09:12):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (09:12):
I mean, like these programs, these grounds are going to
be like along lines of save the baby pandas one
and it's like, well, of course, who wouldn't want to
save the baby panda too. And and you know, in
some cases they've got.
Speaker 1 (09:28):
A show Panda three, which they.
Speaker 9 (09:29):
Will they will try it out for special occasions. In
a lot of cases they don't even have a show
panda for no, there's not even one Panda six because
we asked for pictures and we don't even get one
panda center. It's like, well, you got to well that's
a lot of you know, what's what's where's a billion dollars?
Speaker 2 (09:46):
Gay you?
Speaker 1 (09:46):
It does not even get you one panda.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
That's nine pandas in thirty five seconds. Yeah, so apparently
if you want a billion dollars in the government, you
better produce at least one panda.
Speaker 1 (09:54):
And he wants pictures. Wow yeah right, No, No, I mean.
Speaker 2 (10:01):
Well, I mean I think the point he's alleging that
people are out here asking for money for causes that
they don't aren't maybe as involved with as in the
panda was the example. But nine pandas in thirty seconds.
So that's exciting. One of Pope Francis's final witches will
come true. Before he died, the Pontiev asked for one
of his popemobiles to be converted into a mobile healthcare
(10:21):
unit and sent to the Gaza Strip. The new clinic
will feature medical equipment for diagnosing, examining, and treating children,
and will be staffed by doctors and medics. That baseball
fan who fell from the twenty one foot right field
wall and onto the field at PNC Park in Pittford
last week during the seventh the inning of the Pirates
in the Cubs game is awake, alert and getting better.
(10:41):
He still has a long road ahead of him, a
family member wrote, but today brought a moment of hope
that we've all been holding on too. If you haven't
seen a video of this, it's like, it's not good.
I mean, it's what you'd imagine. I don't know if
he was trying to grab for a ball. I'm not
sure what happened, but he's in the outfield on the wall,
and yeah, and he does a flip.
Speaker 1 (11:00):
It's not good.
Speaker 2 (11:01):
Hawaii lawmakers have approved a new measure to raise the
state's lodging tax, marking what experts says the nation's first
state level tax of its kind designed explicitly to fund
environmental protection and climate change adaptation. In short, it's going
to cost you basically twenty percent more on top of
your hotel bill to go to Hawaii. So they're expected
(11:24):
to sign this, I guess sometime soon. Zero point seventy
five SARCH charts the existing ten point twenty five tax
on short term accommodations like hotel rooms, vacation rentals, and
time shares, raising that to eleven and then they collect
three percent lodging tax and then an excise tax of
four point seven So if you add all that, eighteen
(11:44):
point seven percent is added to your hotel room if
you go to Hawaii for conservation, so your you know,
whatever it would be. You're two hundred, two hundred dollar
hotel room in Hawaii. Your five hundred dollars hotel room
is what an extra hundred bucks now something like that,
get twenty dollars making twenty dollars per one hundred is
what you would pay now, So forget about your resort fee.
Speaker 1 (12:05):
You get the resort fee man.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
And then now you go to Hawaii, you got to
pay twenty percent more to make it, you know, keep
it looking nice or whatever.
Speaker 3 (12:11):
I'm going So say yeah you are, oh.
Speaker 2 (12:14):
No, well save your pennies. Then you telling me and
this reunion watch out for the Primates too and the
pandas for that matter. Thirty two people, mostly in bikinis,
were rescued from a sinking yacht off of Miami Beach
this weekend. It was a four million dollar Lamborghini boat.
(12:34):
I didn't know they made boats, but rescue crews, including
the Coastguard, swooped in just in time. Most of the
group escaped unbothered, snapping selfies, of course, as the sixty
three foot three point six million dollar boat tilted nearly vertical.
Some even made sure to save their MacBooks and oh
and a bottle of Classe azul Go tequila, So you
(12:54):
got to grab that on the way out. Of course,
you know, the four million dollar boat, that's a problem.
But we got to make sure we grab the tequila
on the way out. That's a big deal, that's correct. Yeah,
that's like these people that are grabbing their stuff when
the you know, the airplanes flipped over on the runway
and they're trying to get out. It's like when we
grab my bag re fast, It's like, wait, you really
you worried about to be airplanes upside down?
Speaker 7 (13:15):
You know?
Speaker 2 (13:15):
But anyway, that's why I don't like boats. Okay, I
don't want to be stuck on a boat all day.
Speaker 1 (13:21):
I don't.
Speaker 2 (13:22):
I don't want to be committed to this group of
people all day, and then it could flip over and
what happens to my tequila? It could go everywhere exactly.
And for gamers, this morning, I've got bad news. The
release of gram Theft Auto I Believe This Is six
has been delayed until May twenty six, of twenty twenty six.
One of the most highly anticipated titles in video gaming history,
(13:43):
the newest GTA was previously scheduled to be launched in
the fall of this year. But no, guys, not till
May of next year. So I'm not sure what you're
all going to do now or what's going to be
on your Christmas list, but you can't have it.
Speaker 1 (13:54):
I'm sorry, my goodness, yeah, I'm sorry.
Speaker 2 (13:56):
It's sinkod am Io today, National Astronaut Day, and it's
i Elenoma Monday. So where's Sunscreen? National Hogi Day? National
Cartoonist Day? And National Silence this Shame Day, which brings
an opportunity to continue the conversation about mental health and
wellness and erase the stigma.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
We'll get to the.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
Entertainmer of fort neext blogs audio journals. Wait, any boy,
the phone is new this morning? Why does somebody get ghosted?
That twenty minutes away? Five hundred and fifty bunch of
Kiki in that a showdown? You can win this morning?
And uh and Kiki's courts coming up to the French
go back in three.
Speaker 1 (14:32):
Order a fresh show. It's Kiki's court. All rise, the
honorable judge Kiki is here. Take it away, made Adam.
Speaker 5 (14:40):
All right, let's get in the court room. It says,
Hey Kike, my name is Debbie. I'm a longtime French
show listener in a proud single mom.
Speaker 1 (14:48):
All R, It's not her fault. Then I know it's
somebody else's. You know the story, somebody else's fault, I know,
she says.
Speaker 5 (14:53):
My daughter is fifteen, a straight A student, and she's
very active in her school and community. My daughter has
all also had the same best friend since first grade. However,
and unfortunately her best friend is currently sixteen and pregnant. Obviously,
this has rocked our world, and I've been forced to
have some very deep conversations with my daughter about her
(15:14):
best friend's choices. But now I've been faced with my
own choice. The girl's mom is giving her a baby shower,
which I think is insane. However, my daughter has been
asking me if she can attend the baby shower, and
I even caught her trying to help plan the party.
I don't think any of this is appropriate, and I
(15:34):
don't want my daughter attending a baby shower and somehow
thinking that this is okay.
Speaker 3 (15:38):
What should I do?
Speaker 2 (15:40):
Are you guys with the jury eight five, five, five
nine one one oh three five Judge Kik, I have
to ask, so we can't celebrate the birth of this baby,
even though it was unplanned, potentially right, So I mean,
I'm just wondering about that, Like, she doesn't get a shower,
even though she's young and it wasn't probably on purpose,
we still don't just make the best of it.
Speaker 5 (15:58):
According to Debbie, she's not comfortable with this, and I'm
not a parent, so I would love to hear from parents.
Speaker 3 (16:03):
But my hot take is that.
Speaker 5 (16:07):
Allow your daughter to go right, because in my mind,
you've raised your daughter a certain way, You've taught her
a lot of valuable lessons. She's a great child, a
great student, and I don't think she should not be
there for her friend and be held accountable for her
friend's decisions, like her friend did what she did, whatever
the situation may be. But you know your kid, You
(16:28):
know your daughter, You've raised her right, you hope that
she would make the great decisions in life. So I
think you know this is a part of life, teenage, pregnancy,
It happens. It happens to people, and I think you
trying to shield her from that may cause her to rebel.
And I think at this time in her friend's life too,
they've been friends since first grade. You know, her friend
is probably going through a lot of things emotionally and mentally,
(16:50):
and I think she really would need your daughter's support,
and I don't think you should take that away from them.
Speaker 2 (16:55):
At this point, I'm still caught up on this baby shower,
So I mean, the point of the shower is to celebrate,
of course, but then also you give gifts and diapers
and all that stuff which the girl's gonna need. And
then the other thing is if we're just pretending this
didn't happen, because it's a valuable life lesson or a
difficult conversation to have with your own kid. If we're
(17:15):
just gonna pretend this didn't happen and not go to
the baby. The baby is arriving. The baby's coming, exactly,
And so every time you see this woman and her baby,
that would be a reminder of the fact that this
happened young, or was an accident or whatever happened. So
I don't know why we're pretending that it's not happening
and not acknowledging and celebrating and making the best of it.
Because again, if the thing is we're not going to
(17:36):
celebrate this, we're gonna pretend it's not happening. We're not
going to the party, you shouldn't help. Well, then, I
mean that doesn't make any sense.
Speaker 5 (17:43):
Yeah, she feels like it will be a bad influence
on her daughter too, but already happened.
Speaker 1 (17:47):
It's happening exactly, it's happening.
Speaker 3 (17:49):
It doesn't make her a bad person either.
Speaker 4 (17:51):
If she's having a baby at this age, like you said,
it does happen, and she raised her daughter a certain way,
and her daughter has her own mind, her own you know,
set of values, and that doesn't mean that that's going
to happen to her as well.
Speaker 3 (18:03):
If you attend a baby shower for your friend, well,
that's like.
Speaker 2 (18:06):
People who used to say that Sixteen and Pregnant on
MTV was glorifying teen pregnancy.
Speaker 1 (18:11):
I watched the show. It didn't look good to me. Okay,
I tell you to watch that show and go man,
I would love to have that life. Say it looks
like they are crushing it.
Speaker 7 (18:19):
No.
Speaker 8 (18:19):
Yeah, tell your daughter to look at what follows and
she'll be fine. But also everything's an opportunity for a
discussion to learn. I mean, we can't just ignore things.
But yeah, have her, have her stick around and see
how much she needs her support because it's not glamorous.
Speaker 5 (18:33):
And I don't know about you guys, but I had
friends that had children when we were sixteen and seventeen
years old, and I didn't, you know, just because they
made a decision or something happened in their life, that
doesn't mean that I'm going to go follow the leader.
Speaker 3 (18:45):
Or I have to do it now too.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
That's right, ki Ki, Yeah, I didn't either. Yeah, that's right.
No one that's actually mean. But I mean, but I
didn't either.
Speaker 3 (18:52):
You know that she just be safe.
Speaker 2 (18:54):
That's why is that I I avoided all of that
because I had tremendous discipline. Yeah, good judgment. Now that
being said, even though nobody wanted to get with me.
I I don't think it is entirely true. I was
very afraid of this happening. My parents were extremely effective
(19:14):
growing up in making sure that I knew that disappointing
them was going to be a problem. I wasn't scared
of them per se, but I was scared of disappointing them.
And my mom was funny about all this. She was like, look,
you know what, you knew what she got to do.
She even bought me condoms, but she was like you
and my dad actually hated that because he felt like,
of all people, he felt like that was enabling me.
(19:35):
And her thing was, well, I mean, I'm a girl
and I've never raised a boy before, so I don't
really know what I'm doing, But if he's going to
do it, and if he's dumb enough to be a
bit too embarrassed to buy them, then I'll buy them,
you know whatever, because it's not like I can stop
it if it's going to happen. But my parents were
very effective and convincing me, Hey, you do what you want,
but if you have a baby in high school or
(19:56):
before God forbid, this is going to be a real
problem for you, like you know, and but again not bad.
It's not a bad thing ever to have a baby.
But like just so you know, it will change the
entire trajectory of your life of course, so just you know,
like if that, hey, you do what she do do.
But like so it was never don't do it. It
was always just like, yeah, eh, that's not gonna be great.
You know, it's not gonna be great, you know, for
(20:18):
for for the dreams that you have for yourself. So
again you're right, like the mom ignoring this because she
doesn't want it to happen to her daughter. That's not
that's not a thing. Heyday, good morning, Welcome to Kikey's
Court on The Fred Show.
Speaker 6 (20:32):
Oh my goodness, good morning.
Speaker 1 (20:34):
Hey what do you want to say? Welcome?
Speaker 6 (20:36):
Come on, come on you I was just gonna say that.
Speaker 10 (20:39):
When I was in high school, I never saw another
pregnant teenager and decided I want to follow those foots
right right, it's a twenty first century. Everybody knows how
hard it is to have a baby.
Speaker 1 (20:48):
Like we're kids are not stupid.
Speaker 3 (20:51):
People make mistakes and everything, Like.
Speaker 10 (20:53):
Mom needs it. That's the girl's best friend. I think
she says it's the first grade or something like people
make mistakes and it's gonna be really bad. Idea of
you know what she's gonna tell her daughter if it
happens to her, that your mom's not gonna support you
and all that stuff. So I think she just really
needs to rethink her thought process.
Speaker 2 (21:10):
Yeah, I agree, because I watched that sixteen and pregnant
stuff and I'm like, this is not.
Speaker 1 (21:16):
Doesn't look great. Hey hey, hey, how old is that kid? Day?
Let's talk about this.
Speaker 3 (21:22):
She is about to be five next week.
Speaker 1 (21:24):
How old are you? I'm twenty five? Okay, all right,
well you're starting young too, but uh, it's all good.
I went to high school. But hi to her, and
hi to you, and thank you for calling. I have
a good day. No, thank you. She was cute, you know.
I'm like, wait a minute, what do you know about
this story?
Speaker 7 (21:40):
Right?
Speaker 1 (21:40):
Hey, Tay, how does this has been hit home or something?
Speaker 7 (21:42):
Hey?
Speaker 1 (21:43):
Brenda, good morning? How are you?
Speaker 9 (21:45):
Hi?
Speaker 11 (21:45):
Good morning?
Speaker 1 (21:46):
I love you guys, Thank you, we love you too.
Kiky's Court, what say you?
Speaker 11 (21:51):
I think she should let her go to the baby shower.
I think if she's worried about like influences here's the thing.
Speaker 3 (21:57):
They're everywhere and if that girl has a phone, I.
Speaker 11 (22:00):
Mean there's no way she's not seeing videos or TikTok.
Like the influence is going to be everywhere, but with
her best friend, Like she needs to feel support right now.
Speaker 3 (22:08):
Like that's like the one thing, Branda.
Speaker 2 (22:10):
I see this the other way, Like if it were
my daughter, I might be like, hey, you know what,
you want to help plan the baby shower?
Speaker 1 (22:16):
You want to be involved.
Speaker 2 (22:17):
I'll tell you what you know, if you have a
little job or something work in someplace, why don't you
why don't you buy some diapers with your money? And
then why don't you go and why don't you go
to the birth too? If this show out you no
and honestly, and then and then why don't you help
her race? Like why don't you make sure that you
babysit and like be involved in the process. I would
lean into this, oh, because I'm nice. I don't think
most sixteen year olds are going to look at that
(22:38):
and go after seeing what actually the work that it
actually requires in the process and the sacrifice and it's
a wonderful thing and I'm happy for this, you know,
girl or whatever, because there's nothing bad about bringing a
life into the world, But I don't know that I
think that I would want to do that after seeing
it firsthand being involved in I might that might be
close enough for me as a sixteen year old old.
Speaker 1 (23:01):
Yeah right right.
Speaker 11 (23:03):
I mean maybe she also, I mean if she's confident,
like the way she's been parenting her, and then she
should have a little more you know, faith that maybe
her daughter's like okay, like maybe this isn't for me,
but if this was for you, you know, if you
can handle this, and that's fine for you. I think
it's just trusting, like what you put into your child,
you know.
Speaker 1 (23:20):
I guess, yeah, yeah, I agree too. I agree. Thank you, Brenda.
Have a good day.
Speaker 12 (23:25):
You guys too, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (23:26):
I mean, shielding your kids from all this stuff, I
feel like that tends those tend to be the kids
that then get out in the real world and then
want to do all this stuff because it's like, well,
we pretended that that didn't happen, you know. I remember
the kids that like they weren't allowed to drink, and
they weren't allowed to go to the parties, and they
were allowed to do this. We're allowed to do that.
And they can't go on dates, they can't be alone,
all these different things, and then they get out in
(23:47):
the real world and they want to try all this
stuff because they weren't supposed to do any of it.
Speaker 3 (23:51):
They lose their mind at the first hand of freedom.
Speaker 1 (23:54):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (23:55):
I mean, it's funny because people used to say to
me when my sister was pregnant, you know, wait till
you hold that girl, and then you're gonna want it
for yourself.
Speaker 1 (24:02):
And that is not what happens. The exact opposite happened.
Speaker 2 (24:06):
Actually, I held that little girl and I was like,
I love you so much, and I will get you
out of jail anytime, and I will buy you everything
that your mom won't and you can come see me
and I will. We can do everything that you're not
allowed to do. But then you're going back Southwest boarding group. Hey,
you're gone, Like I put you on that thing.
Speaker 1 (24:25):
I'll even come with you, hand you off, and then
I'm going home alone to my band Jocelyn. How you doing,
Good morning? Hi, good morning.
Speaker 2 (24:33):
Hey, So Kikey's Court, if you're just joining, I don't
want to key. I want to make Judge Kiki your honor.
I want to make sure I get this right. There's
a mom who has a sixteen year old daughter. Sixteen
year old daughter's friend is pregnant. They're planning a baby shower.
Mom is like, no, I don't want you at the
baby shower. I don't want you planning the baby shower.
I don't want you to have anything to do with this.
And the debate is is that even useful? And many
(24:55):
of us in here, I think I think we all
would argue, No, what do.
Speaker 1 (24:58):
You think.
Speaker 3 (25:02):
I think she should let her go.
Speaker 6 (25:03):
I actually had a friend who got pregnant fifteen, had
her baby at sixteen. I went through the whole thing
with her, and you know, and the baby was born,
and I knew I did not want to have a baby, y'all.
My mom raised me differently, you know, she people make mistakes,
but she told me, you know, like that just too.
Speaker 12 (25:20):
Young to a baby.
Speaker 1 (25:21):
And when I thought how hard.
Speaker 6 (25:22):
It was, it was even like configure reason why I
didn't want to have a babydd y'all.
Speaker 2 (25:27):
Yeah, Yeah, I think she should lean into this. Yeah, No,
be involved in this process and see if that's what
you want for yourself. Thank you, Jocelyn, have a good day.
Speaker 1 (25:38):
Oh thank you, or we can just pretend it is
not happening, which it is and it always it always
will be right, you know. Emily, Hi, good morning, good morning. Sorry,
what do you think?
Speaker 9 (25:52):
So?
Speaker 7 (25:53):
As I you guys were talking, I remember this actually
happened when I was in high school. Wasn't one of
my best friends, but a girl a j simply you know, sixteen,
pregnant whatnot. And they threw her baby shower and I
remember all the parents judging the other parents, but no
one didn't let their child go. And I think that's
the whole thing, is the mom's going to cause bigger
issues by stirring of drama and not letting her child go.
Speaker 1 (26:15):
And like everyone said.
Speaker 7 (26:16):
Previously, you know, maybe it's a good I think, meaning
into it would be an excellent way for UH to
avoid teenage pregnancy because it's someone who's UH twenty nine
and kids my friends are having kids.
Speaker 3 (26:28):
The more I learn about.
Speaker 7 (26:29):
Pregnancy and birth, the less likely I want to have
a child.
Speaker 2 (26:32):
Yeah, the repression thing is just not going to work.
I honestly think it's better just to I mean, it's
it's just the reality it's happening. Yeah, And I don't
necessarily think that I don't know that, Like to someone
else's point, your values and your priorities just change because
something's happening to somebody else. And it's not like there
(26:54):
aren't babies being born all the time, and and you know,
things happening all the time that might remind her that,
you know what I mean, Like, and she's not going
to just block the idea that teen pregnancy could occur
by not letting her walk outside or go to parties
or whatever else.
Speaker 7 (27:08):
Right, well, right, and like I mean, like you I said,
you know, she knows she's pregnant. Like so I just
what good it like making isolating her from her best friend?
What good is it going to do at this point?
Speaker 1 (27:19):
Yeah? I agree, Thank you Lindsay or Emily, thank you,
have a good day.
Speaker 5 (27:22):
And Debbie's defense, thanks for Someone on the text said,
you know, they think that Debbie just doesn't want to
make it seem like it's fun or celebrating team pregnancy,
which but we should.
Speaker 1 (27:32):
Celebrate the baby, we should celebrate the life. Yeah, and
the fact that it's happening and she's gonna need support. Yeah,
And I'm sure she doesn't.
Speaker 2 (27:41):
I don't know this girl, obviously, but I can't imagine
she feels great about this, right you know. I mean
it's she's a kid, and she's having a kid, and
you know all the things.
Speaker 1 (27:51):
That come with that.
Speaker 2 (27:52):
So I think it would be super valuable for this
girl's spirit. Okay, what happened happened right right? So, like
why are we not supporting her at Lindsey High Lindsay
now it's Lindse Eastern.
Speaker 1 (28:03):
Good morning.
Speaker 12 (28:05):
Hey guys. I totally think that she should let her
daughter go. I think I have a little bit of
a different perspective. I'm an older sister, but my younger
brother is twelve years younger than me, So he's in
high school right now, and I get to sometimes like
have the privilege of like talking to him and talking
about things that he won't talk to my parents about.
(28:27):
And he does things that are so empathetic for his
friends that he knows he would never do for himself.
He's really smart. He'll never like ever like touch things
that they want to do, but he'll still show up
for them because they're emotionally struggling or dealing with things
that he never wants to ever, ever ever touch. But
it's just I think that it's that she's showing up
(28:50):
for her friends during a really really hard time because
these parents are just absolutely potentially laid into her that
there's the social stigma. These things are really really really hard,
and why can't the friends, Like, why can't she show
up for her friend? And it's really really difficult time
as the mom aster daughter, you know, are you just
doing this just to be supportive? Because I bet she is.
(29:11):
This is really really hard and it's really really ugly
for from a lot of different perspectives, And it's a
really really difficult thing to see your friend go through.
And you know, I don't think anybody wants to be
in the situation. And I can only imagine that, you add,
seeing your best friend go through this, you want to
try and be there for them in any way that
(29:32):
you possibly can. And the baby shower can be really
really fun, you know, from a kid's perspective, So I
can only imagine that they're going to try and make
this as fun as possible. So I think hopefully mom
can see that and can kind of like let her
daughter go just a little bit. But I don't think
they're going to try and you know, she's gonna not
(29:54):
walk away from this and go I want this because
nobody wants this.
Speaker 2 (29:58):
Yeah, and a lot of people are saying, but how
about to sit down with your daughter and have that
conversation and figure out what she thinks about this as
opposed to just blocking her. I mean, if she's if
she's like, I'm so excited I want to have a
baby now because of all this attention, well then that's
an opportunity to have a further conversation. But I would
imagine I don't know any of the people involved in this.
I would bet that you're right, Jamie that if you
(30:18):
ask the kid, the sixteen year old, you know, the daughter,
why are you doing this, it would be I'm supporting
my friend. It has nothing to do with wanting it
for herself. It's it's because it's the right thing to do.
And in that case, then you raise your kid, right
and we should be celebrating that. Yep, exactly, thank you, Jamie. Yeah,
they are well, some I wasn't but something. Have a
(30:40):
good day, Jamie. I mean, some kids are dumb. I
why do I keep using the wrong name whoever that was,
I'm Jessic Jennifer. I don't know who that was. I
keep using the wrong name, and I'm on a lot
of medicine. Okay, I can't be sick this week.
Speaker 1 (30:53):
I can't.
Speaker 2 (30:53):
So I took everything this morning. I took everything I
can find this, a little bit of this, a little
bit of that, drink, a little bit, a little bit
of it.
Speaker 1 (31:00):
No, I can't. I just can't have it.
Speaker 2 (31:02):
So anyway, to Jessica, Jamie, Janine, Adrianna, Maria, Sam John,
everybody who called this morning, thank you. I'm sorry that
I'm like ten seconds behind everyone else. But another problem.
Speaker 1 (31:13):
Solve kicking Debbie, let her go.
Speaker 3 (31:15):
You raise the good girl.
Speaker 1 (31:16):
Another problem?
Speaker 2 (31:16):
Yes, well girl, let's celebrate the thoughtfulness. The Entertainment Report
is next. Oh, this is a good song to play.
The right show is on Friend's Biggest Stories of the Day.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
I mean, I'm gonna sound like a like a jerk,
but I feel like the people who get super hype
about the high school reunion are the people who peaked
in high school, because, like, I don't know, I don't
get I'm not really hype about anything that happened twenty
five years ago.
Speaker 3 (00:21):
I miss it so much.
Speaker 2 (00:22):
High school, Yes, I see, I don't. It's not so
much better. I left that place and they got better, better, better, better.
Speaker 3 (00:28):
I can't better.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
Really, No, did you peak in high school? You didn't
look at you. You're here on this show. You got
all these businesses, and yeah, you got three towels for
the business, you got your You're almost a realtor, spray tan,
what don't I do? Philanthropist power suit wearing TV on
on Lady. So I would not say you peaked in
(00:50):
high school. You had a beautiful daughter and a husband.
Speaker 3 (00:53):
You thank you.
Speaker 4 (00:54):
I feel like that was just a timeless had and
people say, oh, I went to college and had like
way more fun, and listen, I didn't. I had that
college experience. It wasn't necessarily fun. It just was what
it was. If that makes any sense.
Speaker 1 (01:05):
Yeah, high school wasn't bad.
Speaker 2 (01:07):
I just I was in no hurry to like go
stand in a room with a bunch of people that
I hadn't talked to in a very long time, Like
what are we going to talk about?
Speaker 1 (01:13):
You know, I don't know.
Speaker 3 (01:14):
It's very awkward, it can be. I can see that.
Speaker 2 (01:17):
And people were really offended that I wasn't into the
and I didn't go. I mean, and I don't think
they were offending because I wasn't there. They were just
offended that there were people that weren't as excited about it.
I mean, we had that girl from high school on
the show and she was not I haven't spoken with her,
said I don't. She'd mad at me.
Speaker 1 (01:32):
I didn't go, and I didn't give any money either,
And I'm like, well why, I mean, it wasn't the.
Speaker 2 (01:36):
Greatest time of my life. I've moved on. I've you know,
I don't know, I've accomplished other things.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
Yeah, it's all good. I just I don't know what
we're gonna do. We're gonna go, I mean, that's it.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
I also think that normally these things are all about
the alumni relations people getting access to you to get
money from you. That's at least what I've found about
the stuff they do for our school is they'll be like,
you know, they'll be like, oh, we're having a cotchin
function and they have it like the Friday before Christmas
because they know everybody's gonna be in town or whatever.
And then you show up and it all it is
(02:07):
is after school and then it's like here and as
you walk in, you could donate to this thing and
that thing in this scholarship and that thing. It's like, oh,
so this free drink is not free. Actually it's you
just want my money, you know. You wanted to get
a look and see if I'm on ozampik or not.
And if I'm on o Zampiic, I mean, they've got
a couple extra dollars to give to you. That's what
I feel like is happening. It's all good if you
want to go, but I feel like, you know, if
(02:28):
you if you were going to keep in touch with people,
then you would have right Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm.
Speaker 3 (02:35):
Like fifty to fifty with it.
Speaker 5 (02:36):
Like I used to really be all in and I'm
like probably in the high school was the time, like
we had a great time, but it's just like now,
I just like everybody's weird.
Speaker 1 (02:45):
Look at you. The Kentucky Derby was on Saturday. Let's
listen to this. I'm so exciting. I have no idea
what's going on, but it's so excited coming with him
money out shot this guy. Two of them go break
bye with a prolo journalism, good sovereignty. Those of those
don't go the last sixteenth.
Speaker 6 (03:05):
Of a mile.
Speaker 1 (03:06):
Sovereignty is taking the lead. Journalism is second for the
look side, so sovereignty one.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
Okay, And I was asking a question I ask every year,
but do you think these horses know how badass they are?
Speaker 6 (03:18):
Like?
Speaker 2 (03:18):
Do you think they know when they won that they
won and that they're the best, or do you think
they're just like I don't know. I mean, I just
I've showed up so I don't get fined. You know,
I'm just here so I don't get fined. Like, I
don't know, do you think those I know they're treated well.
I would like to believe they're treated well, those horses,
because if you win, then that you know, it's like
three million dollars or something that the owner gets. So
(03:41):
I would like to believe that they're well treated anyway.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
But I don't know.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
I mean, do you think they know that everyone in
the world is watching them and they're the fastest, best
horse of the day.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
Or they're just like, well, I don't know, where's my carrot?
Speaker 5 (03:53):
That feel like they have to know, because I'm sure
the owners like brush them all day and talk nice
to them, and you know, worship they better.
Speaker 2 (04:01):
I don't know, but you get you get ten percent
of the winnings. I looked up if you're the jockey,
so three hundred grand, which doesn't seem like enough because
you get slung mud all over you and you could die.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
You could absolutely die.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
If you fall off that thing and you're in the
middle of the pack and then the other horses run
over you, You're dead. You're gone, it's over. Or if
you get thrown off a horse and like land the
wrong way or whatever. So I think you should get
more than three hundred thousand dollars for that. I think
it should pay better. I also want to know why
all my friends become horse experts. On the day of
the Kentucky Dearly, I mean I was in a group
of people and I would say there was probably five
(04:34):
thousand dollars among I didn't. I didn't bet on anything,
but there were five thousand dollars among like ten people
being bet on various parlays and they're trading tips.
Speaker 1 (04:43):
Well, you know this one does well in the mud.
And I'm going, what do you like go to the
track of the weekend, Like, how do you know? Are
you scouting? Like how do you how do you know that?
Speaker 7 (04:53):
How do you know that?
Speaker 3 (04:54):
Kale listen. I don't know the horses like I know
my Saquon Barkley. You know, I don't know how as
they can run. I don't know how they do in
these conditions.
Speaker 8 (05:02):
I haven't spread out to the horse race button yet,
but I don't trust it. So so a different person
owns the horse, you're saying, obviously than the jockey, right.
Speaker 2 (05:10):
Yeah, and the jockey doesn't know they hire the jockey.
Oh okay, they're like free agents. So like jockey, some
jockeys are like the best jockey, I guess. And I
don't know a lot about this, but my understanding is
you you can hire a jockey who's won before and
then they're more skilled than others or whatever.
Speaker 3 (05:26):
Where do you go to find a jockey? Like is
there a website or is it like kick so.
Speaker 2 (05:30):
There's like a match swipe pride swipe place. Okay, there's
a jockey thing, yes, yes, yeah, I know it is.
It's like I really don't, Oh, I like this guy's credentials.
Oh okay, it's five threes light, you know I.
Speaker 3 (05:43):
Would guess, yeah, I want to know my jockey's overcolor.
Speaker 1 (05:46):
Yeah yeah, I mean I believe you can hire whatever
jockey you want.
Speaker 3 (05:51):
And they're small little things, aren't they They are, but.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
They had you know, because like me, I would slow
the horse down, you know, from six five to hundred
aerodynamically that ain't gonna work, and the horses look at
me and be like huh uh. I always felt that way,
like when I could, I was always I'm always tall.
But it's like, did the horses look at the people
who are about to go on a little Western ride,
you know when they're on vacation in Albuquerque or whatever.
Speaker 1 (06:13):
You know, the horse is looking oh no, no, no, no,
no no.
Speaker 8 (06:16):
Always bring out this huge horse for my Stebney because
he's about right, and it's like they bring oh, here's
you know, big Bertha, and he's like this dude on
a horse, Like I don't you know all.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
The horses are walking around looking at the tourists of
the day and they're like, oh god, not her, no,
not her, no no no no no no no no,
but started limping, you know, not interested.
Speaker 5 (06:35):
Yeah, people need to stop doing that, like you need.
Everything is not for everybody. Don't do ride to jet skis,
leave the horse back alone.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
Please.
Speaker 2 (06:44):
Don't know if you know this, Kiki, but we're going
to Toronto just speak at a conference. And I think
you know that part. I think you knew that part.
But they're big on horses there. And I actually signed
this up for a horseback riding tour of the city.
Speaker 3 (06:55):
Now you just sign me up there, I know I did.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
I did. Actually, yeah, pas limit their donkeys. Actually we
read around donkeys. You never heard you never heard of
the Toronto donkeys. Oh yeah no, I thought I figured
that was the best way for us to bond and
see the city. No, I'm more of a camel type
of girl. And then I signed up for a running
tour as well. It's a running tour. Yeah, it's an
exciting way to see all the different things they have there.
Speaker 3 (07:17):
Good thing I don't have my real ID.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
Yeah, no, your passport work fun. It's all good.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
So, in case you were wondering, primate experts have weighed
in on the one hundred men versus gorilla debate that
we got into last week. So a got named Michael Stern,
who was the former curator of Primates at the Philadelphia Zoom,
has weighed in on the one hundred men versus gorilla debate.
Who would win one hundred men versus a gorilla? I
still contend that gorilla would win. I think as long
(07:47):
as there were no weapons or unfair advantages, I believe
that you know, the gorilla could take you out one
by one. I think it would have to be a
coordinated effort of strength all at the same time, because
they say that the gorillas are what like ten times
stronger than their weight or whatever I told you on Friday.
But he said, the debate doesn't have much to go
on because a gorilla would see that it's outnumbered and
(08:07):
then it would run.
Speaker 1 (08:08):
He said.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
The gorilla would sprint through the nearest line of men,
knock one or two over, and then make a run
for it. He said, for the most part, gorillas are
gentle creatures, and the talk of them fighting men.
Speaker 1 (08:17):
Is hurting their reputation. Michael certain speaks for all gorillas. Okay.
He stood in front of a podium.
Speaker 2 (08:23):
Okay, A bunch of guerilla stood behind him, and he said, look,
this is hurting the reputation.
Speaker 1 (08:28):
Of my client.
Speaker 2 (08:31):
He did share that a primate could do damage to
a group of humans. Chimpanzee. I guess that is a primate.
It could do damage. So not a gorilla, but a
chimpanzee is what we're worried about. Okness, our moment of
zen this morning. Shout out to the Daily Show. This
is Elon Musk. Now, we don't get political here. We're
(08:52):
really not trying to be political. I just want you
to count the number of times he says pandas in
this thing he's talking about on Fox News of course,
about how Doge you know, his little organization that's trying
to find savings in the government, ways to cut stuff.
That he's upset because you know some of these organizations
they try and save baby pandas, but they don't have
a panda.
Speaker 7 (09:12):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (09:12):
I mean, like these programs, these grounds are going to
be like along lines of save the baby pandas one
and it's like, well, of course, who wouldn't want to
save the baby panda too. And and you know, in
some cases they've got.
Speaker 1 (09:28):
A show Panda three, which they.
Speaker 9 (09:29):
Will they will try it out for special occasions. In
a lot of cases they don't even have a show
panda for no, there's not even one Panda six because
we asked for pictures and we don't even get one
panda center. It's like, well, you got to well that's
a lot of you know, what's what's where's a billion dollars?
Speaker 2 (09:46):
Gay you?
Speaker 1 (09:46):
It does not even get you one panda.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
That's nine pandas in thirty five seconds. Yeah, so apparently
if you want a billion dollars in the government, you
better produce at least one panda.
Speaker 1 (09:54):
And he wants pictures. Wow yeah right, No, No, I mean.
Speaker 2 (10:01):
Well, I mean I think the point he's alleging that
people are out here asking for money for causes that
they don't aren't maybe as involved with as in the
panda was the example. But nine pandas in thirty seconds.
So that's exciting. One of Pope Francis's final witches will
come true. Before he died, the Pontiev asked for one
of his popemobiles to be converted into a mobile healthcare
(10:21):
unit and sent to the Gaza Strip. The new clinic
will feature medical equipment for diagnosing, examining, and treating children,
and will be staffed by doctors and medics. That baseball
fan who fell from the twenty one foot right field
wall and onto the field at PNC Park in Pittford
last week during the seventh the inning of the Pirates
in the Cubs game is awake, alert and getting better.
(10:41):
He still has a long road ahead of him, a
family member wrote, but today brought a moment of hope
that we've all been holding on too. If you haven't
seen a video of this, it's like, it's not good.
I mean, it's what you'd imagine. I don't know if
he was trying to grab for a ball. I'm not
sure what happened, but he's in the outfield on the wall,
and yeah, and he does a flip.
Speaker 1 (11:00):
It's not good.
Speaker 2 (11:01):
Hawaii lawmakers have approved a new measure to raise the
state's lodging tax, marking what experts says the nation's first
state level tax of its kind designed explicitly to fund
environmental protection and climate change adaptation. In short, it's going
to cost you basically twenty percent more on top of
your hotel bill to go to Hawaii. So they're expected
(11:24):
to sign this, I guess sometime soon. Zero point seventy
five SARCH charts the existing ten point twenty five tax
on short term accommodations like hotel rooms, vacation rentals, and
time shares, raising that to eleven and then they collect
three percent lodging tax and then an excise tax of
four point seven So if you add all that, eighteen
(11:44):
point seven percent is added to your hotel room if
you go to Hawaii for conservation, so your you know,
whatever it would be. You're two hundred, two hundred dollar
hotel room in Hawaii. Your five hundred dollars hotel room
is what an extra hundred bucks now something like that,
get twenty dollars making twenty dollars per one hundred is
what you would pay now, So forget about your resort fee.
Speaker 1 (12:05):
You get the resort fee man.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
And then now you go to Hawaii, you got to
pay twenty percent more to make it, you know, keep
it looking nice or whatever.
Speaker 3 (12:11):
I'm going So say yeah you are, oh.
Speaker 2 (12:14):
No, well save your pennies. Then you telling me and
this reunion watch out for the Primates too and the
pandas for that matter. Thirty two people, mostly in bikinis,
were rescued from a sinking yacht off of Miami Beach
this weekend. It was a four million dollar Lamborghini boat.
(12:34):
I didn't know they made boats, but rescue crews, including
the Coastguard, swooped in just in time. Most of the
group escaped unbothered, snapping selfies, of course, as the sixty
three foot three point six million dollar boat tilted nearly vertical.
Some even made sure to save their MacBooks and oh
and a bottle of Classe azul Go tequila, So you
(12:54):
got to grab that on the way out. Of course,
you know, the four million dollar boat, that's a problem.
But we got to make sure we grab the tequila
on the way out. That's a big deal, that's correct. Yeah,
that's like these people that are grabbing their stuff when
the you know, the airplanes flipped over on the runway
and they're trying to get out. It's like when we
grab my bag re fast, It's like, wait, you really
you worried about to be airplanes upside down?
Speaker 7 (13:15):
You know?
Speaker 2 (13:15):
But anyway, that's why I don't like boats. Okay, I
don't want to be stuck on a boat all day.
Speaker 1 (13:21):
I don't.
Speaker 2 (13:22):
I don't want to be committed to this group of
people all day, and then it could flip over and
what happens to my tequila? It could go everywhere exactly.
And for gamers, this morning, I've got bad news. The
release of gram Theft Auto I Believe This Is six
has been delayed until May twenty six, of twenty twenty six.
One of the most highly anticipated titles in video gaming history,
(13:43):
the newest GTA was previously scheduled to be launched in
the fall of this year. But no, guys, not till
May of next year. So I'm not sure what you're
all going to do now or what's going to be
on your Christmas list, but you can't have it.
Speaker 1 (13:54):
I'm sorry, my goodness, yeah, I'm sorry.
Speaker 2 (13:56):
It's sinkod am Io today, National Astronaut Day, and it's
i Elenoma Monday. So where's Sunscreen? National Hogi Day? National
Cartoonist Day? And National Silence this Shame Day, which brings
an opportunity to continue the conversation about mental health and
wellness and erase the stigma.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
We'll get to the.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
Entertainmer of fort neext blogs audio journals. Wait, any boy,
the phone is new this morning? Why does somebody get ghosted?
That twenty minutes away? Five hundred and fifty bunch of
Kiki in that a showdown? You can win this morning?
And uh and Kiki's courts coming up to the French
go back in three.
Speaker 1 (14:32):
Order a fresh show. It's Kiki's court. All rise, the
honorable judge Kiki is here. Take it away, made Adam.
Speaker 5 (14:40):
All right, let's get in the court room. It says,
Hey Kike, my name is Debbie. I'm a longtime French
show listener in a proud single mom.
Speaker 1 (14:48):
All R, It's not her fault. Then I know it's
somebody else's. You know the story, somebody else's fault, I know,
she says.
Speaker 5 (14:53):
My daughter is fifteen, a straight A student, and she's
very active in her school and community. My daughter has
all also had the same best friend since first grade. However,
and unfortunately her best friend is currently sixteen and pregnant. Obviously,
this has rocked our world, and I've been forced to
have some very deep conversations with my daughter about her
(15:14):
best friend's choices. But now I've been faced with my
own choice. The girl's mom is giving her a baby shower,
which I think is insane. However, my daughter has been
asking me if she can attend the baby shower, and
I even caught her trying to help plan the party.
I don't think any of this is appropriate, and I
(15:34):
don't want my daughter attending a baby shower and somehow
thinking that this is okay.
Speaker 3 (15:38):
What should I do?
Speaker 2 (15:40):
Are you guys with the jury eight five, five, five
nine one one oh three five Judge Kik, I have
to ask, so we can't celebrate the birth of this baby,
even though it was unplanned, potentially right, So I mean,
I'm just wondering about that, Like, she doesn't get a shower,
even though she's young and it wasn't probably on purpose,
we still don't just make the best of it.
Speaker 5 (15:58):
According to Debbie, she's not comfortable with this, and I'm
not a parent, so I would love to hear from parents.
Speaker 3 (16:03):
But my hot take is that.
Speaker 5 (16:07):
Allow your daughter to go right, because in my mind,
you've raised your daughter a certain way, You've taught her
a lot of valuable lessons. She's a great child, a
great student, and I don't think she should not be
there for her friend and be held accountable for her
friend's decisions, like her friend did what she did, whatever
the situation may be. But you know your kid, You
(16:28):
know your daughter, You've raised her right, you hope that
she would make the great decisions in life. So I
think you know this is a part of life, teenage, pregnancy,
It happens. It happens to people, and I think you
trying to shield her from that may cause her to rebel.
And I think at this time in her friend's life too,
they've been friends since first grade. You know, her friend
is probably going through a lot of things emotionally and mentally,
(16:50):
and I think she really would need your daughter's support,
and I don't think you should take that away from them.
Speaker 2 (16:55):
At this point, I'm still caught up on this baby shower,
So I mean, the point of the shower is to celebrate,
of course, but then also you give gifts and diapers
and all that stuff which the girl's gonna need. And
then the other thing is if we're just pretending this
didn't happen, because it's a valuable life lesson or a
difficult conversation to have with your own kid. If we're
(17:15):
just gonna pretend this didn't happen and not go to
the baby. The baby is arriving. The baby's coming, exactly,
And so every time you see this woman and her baby,
that would be a reminder of the fact that this
happened young, or was an accident or whatever happened. So
I don't know why we're pretending that it's not happening
and not acknowledging and celebrating and making the best of it.
Because again, if the thing is we're not going to
(17:36):
celebrate this, we're gonna pretend it's not happening. We're not
going to the party, you shouldn't help. Well, then, I
mean that doesn't make any sense.
Speaker 5 (17:43):
Yeah, she feels like it will be a bad influence
on her daughter too, but already happened.
Speaker 1 (17:47):
It's happening exactly, it's happening.
Speaker 3 (17:49):
It doesn't make her a bad person either.
Speaker 4 (17:51):
If she's having a baby at this age, like you said,
it does happen, and she raised her daughter a certain way,
and her daughter has her own mind, her own you know,
set of values, and that doesn't mean that that's going
to happen to her as well.
Speaker 3 (18:03):
If you attend a baby shower for your friend, well,
that's like.
Speaker 2 (18:06):
People who used to say that Sixteen and Pregnant on
MTV was glorifying teen pregnancy.
Speaker 1 (18:11):
I watched the show. It didn't look good to me. Okay,
I tell you to watch that show and go man,
I would love to have that life. Say it looks
like they are crushing it.
Speaker 7 (18:19):
No.
Speaker 8 (18:19):
Yeah, tell your daughter to look at what follows and
she'll be fine. But also everything's an opportunity for a
discussion to learn. I mean, we can't just ignore things.
But yeah, have her, have her stick around and see
how much she needs her support because it's not glamorous.
Speaker 5 (18:33):
And I don't know about you guys, but I had
friends that had children when we were sixteen and seventeen
years old, and I didn't, you know, just because they
made a decision or something happened in their life, that
doesn't mean that I'm going to go follow the leader.
Speaker 3 (18:45):
Or I have to do it now too.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
That's right, ki Ki, Yeah, I didn't either. Yeah, that's right.
No one that's actually mean. But I mean, but I
didn't either.
Speaker 3 (18:52):
You know that she just be safe.
Speaker 2 (18:54):
That's why is that I I avoided all of that
because I had tremendous discipline. Yeah, good judgment. Now that
being said, even though nobody wanted to get with me.
I I don't think it is entirely true. I was
very afraid of this happening. My parents were extremely effective
(19:14):
growing up in making sure that I knew that disappointing
them was going to be a problem. I wasn't scared
of them per se, but I was scared of disappointing them.
And my mom was funny about all this. She was like, look,
you know what, you knew what she got to do.
She even bought me condoms, but she was like you
and my dad actually hated that because he felt like,
of all people, he felt like that was enabling me.
(19:35):
And her thing was, well, I mean, I'm a girl
and I've never raised a boy before, so I don't
really know what I'm doing, But if he's going to
do it, and if he's dumb enough to be a
bit too embarrassed to buy them, then I'll buy them,
you know whatever, because it's not like I can stop
it if it's going to happen. But my parents were
very effective and convincing me, Hey, you do what you want,
but if you have a baby in high school or
(19:56):
before God forbid, this is going to be a real
problem for you, like you know, and but again not bad.
It's not a bad thing ever to have a baby.
But like just so you know, it will change the
entire trajectory of your life of course, so just you know,
like if that, hey, you do what she do do.
But like so it was never don't do it. It
was always just like, yeah, eh, that's not gonna be great.
You know, it's not gonna be great, you know, for
(20:18):
for for the dreams that you have for yourself. So
again you're right, like the mom ignoring this because she
doesn't want it to happen to her daughter. That's not
that's not a thing. Heyday, good morning, Welcome to Kikey's
Court on The Fred Show.
Speaker 6 (20:32):
Oh my goodness, good morning.
Speaker 1 (20:34):
Hey what do you want to say? Welcome?
Speaker 6 (20:36):
Come on, come on you I was just gonna say that.
Speaker 10 (20:39):
When I was in high school, I never saw another
pregnant teenager and decided I want to follow those foots
right right, it's a twenty first century. Everybody knows how
hard it is to have a baby.
Speaker 1 (20:48):
Like we're kids are not stupid.
Speaker 3 (20:51):
People make mistakes and everything, Like.
Speaker 10 (20:53):
Mom needs it. That's the girl's best friend. I think
she says it's the first grade or something like people
make mistakes and it's gonna be really bad. Idea of
you know what she's gonna tell her daughter if it
happens to her, that your mom's not gonna support you
and all that stuff. So I think she just really
needs to rethink her thought process.
Speaker 2 (21:10):
Yeah, I agree, because I watched that sixteen and pregnant
stuff and I'm like, this is not.
Speaker 1 (21:16):
Doesn't look great. Hey hey, hey, how old is that kid? Day?
Let's talk about this.
Speaker 3 (21:22):
She is about to be five next week.
Speaker 1 (21:24):
How old are you? I'm twenty five? Okay, all right,
well you're starting young too, but uh, it's all good.
I went to high school. But hi to her, and
hi to you, and thank you for calling. I have
a good day. No, thank you. She was cute, you know.
I'm like, wait a minute, what do you know about
this story?
Speaker 7 (21:40):
Right?
Speaker 1 (21:40):
Hey, Tay, how does this has been hit home or something?
Speaker 7 (21:42):
Hey?
Speaker 1 (21:43):
Brenda, good morning? How are you?
Speaker 9 (21:45):
Hi?
Speaker 11 (21:45):
Good morning?
Speaker 1 (21:46):
I love you guys, Thank you, we love you too.
Kiky's Court, what say you?
Speaker 11 (21:51):
I think she should let her go to the baby shower.
I think if she's worried about like influences here's the thing.
Speaker 3 (21:57):
They're everywhere and if that girl has a phone, I.
Speaker 11 (22:00):
Mean there's no way she's not seeing videos or TikTok.
Like the influence is going to be everywhere, but with
her best friend, Like she needs to feel support right now.
Speaker 3 (22:08):
Like that's like the one thing, Branda.
Speaker 2 (22:10):
I see this the other way, Like if it were
my daughter, I might be like, hey, you know what,
you want to help plan the baby shower?
Speaker 1 (22:16):
You want to be involved.
Speaker 2 (22:17):
I'll tell you what you know, if you have a
little job or something work in someplace, why don't you
why don't you buy some diapers with your money? And
then why don't you go and why don't you go
to the birth too? If this show out you no
and honestly, and then and then why don't you help
her race? Like why don't you make sure that you
babysit and like be involved in the process. I would
lean into this, oh, because I'm nice. I don't think
most sixteen year olds are going to look at that
(22:38):
and go after seeing what actually the work that it
actually requires in the process and the sacrifice and it's
a wonderful thing and I'm happy for this, you know,
girl or whatever, because there's nothing bad about bringing a
life into the world, But I don't know that I
think that I would want to do that after seeing
it firsthand being involved in I might that might be
close enough for me as a sixteen year old old.
Speaker 1 (23:01):
Yeah right right.
Speaker 11 (23:03):
I mean maybe she also, I mean if she's confident,
like the way she's been parenting her, and then she
should have a little more you know, faith that maybe
her daughter's like okay, like maybe this isn't for me,
but if this was for you, you know, if you
can handle this, and that's fine for you. I think
it's just trusting, like what you put into your child,
you know.
Speaker 1 (23:20):
I guess, yeah, yeah, I agree too. I agree. Thank you, Brenda.
Have a good day.
Speaker 12 (23:25):
You guys too, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (23:26):
I mean, shielding your kids from all this stuff, I
feel like that tends those tend to be the kids
that then get out in the real world and then
want to do all this stuff because it's like, well,
we pretended that that didn't happen, you know. I remember
the kids that like they weren't allowed to drink, and
they weren't allowed to go to the parties, and they
were allowed to do this. We're allowed to do that.
And they can't go on dates, they can't be alone,
all these different things, and then they get out in
(23:47):
the real world and they want to try all this
stuff because they weren't supposed to do any of it.
Speaker 3 (23:51):
They lose their mind at the first hand of freedom.
Speaker 1 (23:54):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (23:55):
I mean, it's funny because people used to say to
me when my sister was pregnant, you know, wait till
you hold that girl, and then you're gonna want it
for yourself.
Speaker 1 (24:02):
And that is not what happens. The exact opposite happened.
Speaker 2 (24:06):
Actually, I held that little girl and I was like,
I love you so much, and I will get you
out of jail anytime, and I will buy you everything
that your mom won't and you can come see me
and I will. We can do everything that you're not
allowed to do. But then you're going back Southwest boarding group. Hey,
you're gone, Like I put you on that thing.
Speaker 1 (24:25):
I'll even come with you, hand you off, and then
I'm going home alone to my band Jocelyn. How you doing,
Good morning? Hi, good morning.
Speaker 2 (24:33):
Hey, So Kikey's Court, if you're just joining, I don't
want to key. I want to make Judge Kiki your honor.
I want to make sure I get this right. There's
a mom who has a sixteen year old daughter. Sixteen
year old daughter's friend is pregnant. They're planning a baby shower.
Mom is like, no, I don't want you at the
baby shower. I don't want you planning the baby shower.
I don't want you to have anything to do with this.
And the debate is is that even useful? And many
(24:55):
of us in here, I think I think we all
would argue, No, what do.
Speaker 1 (24:58):
You think.
Speaker 3 (25:02):
I think she should let her go.
Speaker 6 (25:03):
I actually had a friend who got pregnant fifteen, had
her baby at sixteen. I went through the whole thing
with her, and you know, and the baby was born,
and I knew I did not want to have a baby, y'all.
My mom raised me differently, you know, she people make mistakes,
but she told me, you know, like that just too.
Speaker 12 (25:20):
Young to a baby.
Speaker 1 (25:21):
And when I thought how hard.
Speaker 6 (25:22):
It was, it was even like configure reason why I
didn't want to have a babydd y'all.
Speaker 2 (25:27):
Yeah, Yeah, I think she should lean into this. Yeah, No,
be involved in this process and see if that's what
you want for yourself. Thank you, Jocelyn, have a good day.
Speaker 1 (25:38):
Oh thank you, or we can just pretend it is
not happening, which it is and it always it always
will be right, you know. Emily, Hi, good morning, good morning. Sorry,
what do you think?
Speaker 9 (25:52):
So?
Speaker 7 (25:53):
As I you guys were talking, I remember this actually
happened when I was in high school. Wasn't one of
my best friends, but a girl a j simply you know, sixteen,
pregnant whatnot. And they threw her baby shower and I
remember all the parents judging the other parents, but no
one didn't let their child go. And I think that's
the whole thing, is the mom's going to cause bigger
issues by stirring of drama and not letting her child go.
Speaker 1 (26:15):
And like everyone said.
Speaker 7 (26:16):
Previously, you know, maybe it's a good I think, meaning
into it would be an excellent way for UH to
avoid teenage pregnancy because it's someone who's UH twenty nine
and kids my friends are having kids.
Speaker 3 (26:28):
The more I learn about.
Speaker 7 (26:29):
Pregnancy and birth, the less likely I want to have
a child.
Speaker 2 (26:32):
Yeah, the repression thing is just not going to work.
I honestly think it's better just to I mean, it's
it's just the reality it's happening. Yeah, And I don't
necessarily think that I don't know that, Like to someone
else's point, your values and your priorities just change because
something's happening to somebody else. And it's not like there
(26:54):
aren't babies being born all the time, and and you know,
things happening all the time that might remind her that,
you know what I mean, Like, and she's not going
to just block the idea that teen pregnancy could occur
by not letting her walk outside or go to parties
or whatever else.
Speaker 7 (27:08):
Right, well, right, and like I mean, like you I said,
you know, she knows she's pregnant. Like so I just
what good it like making isolating her from her best friend?
What good is it going to do at this point?
Speaker 1 (27:19):
Yeah? I agree, Thank you Lindsay or Emily, thank you,
have a good day.
Speaker 5 (27:22):
And Debbie's defense, thanks for Someone on the text said,
you know, they think that Debbie just doesn't want to
make it seem like it's fun or celebrating team pregnancy,
which but we should.
Speaker 1 (27:32):
Celebrate the baby, we should celebrate the life. Yeah, and
the fact that it's happening and she's gonna need support. Yeah,
And I'm sure she doesn't.
Speaker 2 (27:41):
I don't know this girl, obviously, but I can't imagine
she feels great about this, right you know. I mean
it's she's a kid, and she's having a kid, and
you know all the things.
Speaker 1 (27:51):
That come with that.
Speaker 2 (27:52):
So I think it would be super valuable for this
girl's spirit. Okay, what happened happened right right? So, like
why are we not supporting her at Lindsey High Lindsay
now it's Lindse Eastern.
Speaker 1 (28:03):
Good morning.
Speaker 12 (28:05):
Hey guys. I totally think that she should let her
daughter go. I think I have a little bit of
a different perspective. I'm an older sister, but my younger
brother is twelve years younger than me, So he's in
high school right now, and I get to sometimes like
have the privilege of like talking to him and talking
about things that he won't talk to my parents about.
(28:27):
And he does things that are so empathetic for his
friends that he knows he would never do for himself.
He's really smart. He'll never like ever like touch things
that they want to do, but he'll still show up
for them because they're emotionally struggling or dealing with things
that he never wants to ever, ever ever touch. But
it's just I think that it's that she's showing up
(28:50):
for her friends during a really really hard time because
these parents are just absolutely potentially laid into her that
there's the social stigma. These things are really really really hard,
and why can't the friends, Like, why can't she show
up for her friend? And it's really really difficult time
as the mom aster daughter, you know, are you just
doing this just to be supportive? Because I bet she is.
(29:11):
This is really really hard and it's really really ugly
for from a lot of different perspectives, And it's a
really really difficult thing to see your friend go through.
And you know, I don't think anybody wants to be
in the situation. And I can only imagine that, you add,
seeing your best friend go through this, you want to
try and be there for them in any way that
(29:32):
you possibly can. And the baby shower can be really
really fun, you know, from a kid's perspective, So I
can only imagine that they're going to try and make
this as fun as possible. So I think hopefully mom
can see that and can kind of like let her
daughter go just a little bit. But I don't think
they're going to try and you know, she's gonna not
(29:54):
walk away from this and go I want this because
nobody wants this.
Speaker 2 (29:58):
Yeah, and a lot of people are saying, but how
about to sit down with your daughter and have that
conversation and figure out what she thinks about this as
opposed to just blocking her. I mean, if she's if
she's like, I'm so excited I want to have a
baby now because of all this attention, well then that's
an opportunity to have a further conversation. But I would
imagine I don't know any of the people involved in this.
I would bet that you're right, Jamie that if you
(30:18):
ask the kid, the sixteen year old, you know, the daughter,
why are you doing this, it would be I'm supporting
my friend. It has nothing to do with wanting it
for herself. It's it's because it's the right thing to do.
And in that case, then you raise your kid, right
and we should be celebrating that. Yep, exactly, thank you, Jamie. Yeah,
they are well, some I wasn't but something. Have a
(30:40):
good day, Jamie. I mean, some kids are dumb. I
why do I keep using the wrong name whoever that was,
I'm Jessic Jennifer. I don't know who that was. I
keep using the wrong name, and I'm on a lot
of medicine. Okay, I can't be sick this week.
Speaker 1 (30:53):
I can't.
Speaker 2 (30:53):
So I took everything this morning. I took everything I
can find this, a little bit of this, a little
bit of that, drink, a little bit, a little bit
of it.
Speaker 1 (31:00):
No, I can't. I just can't have it.
Speaker 2 (31:02):
So anyway, to Jessica, Jamie, Janine, Adrianna, Maria, Sam John,
everybody who called this morning, thank you. I'm sorry that
I'm like ten seconds behind everyone else. But another problem.
Speaker 1 (31:13):
Solve kicking Debbie, let her go.
Speaker 3 (31:15):
You raise the good girl.
Speaker 1 (31:16):
Another problem?
Speaker 2 (31:16):
Yes, well girl, let's celebrate the thoughtfulness. The Entertainment Report
is next. Oh, this is a good song to play.

Intentionally Disturbing
Join me on this podcast as I navigate the murky waters of human behavior, current events, and personal anecdotes through in-depth interviews with incredible people—all served with a generous helping of sarcasm and satire. After years as a forensic and clinical psychologist, I offer a unique interview style and a low tolerance for bullshit, quickly steering conversations toward depth and darkness. I honor the seriousness while also appreciating wit. I’m your guide through the twisted labyrinth of the human psyche, armed with dark humor and biting wit.
