(00:42):
We call them blogs. We have a joint blog today.
That's right. We want to talk about some aniquid. Calin
and Paulina would like to speak about co worker etiquette
and etiquette in general. Please take it away. I can't wait.
Speaker 2 (00:52):
Yay Lena broke, Yeah, Kaylena the carpool has something to say.
Speaker 1 (00:56):
My mom is my Her head is spinning right now
because she doesn't know which one is, which apparent a
lot we don't. A lot of people don't just based
on your voices, which is confusing to me because I
I don't think there's much similarity. But anyway, I don't either.
We talk very different, like I don't know. Yeah, whatever.
Speaker 2 (01:10):
We love each other, so it's fine mixed aspects.
Speaker 1 (01:13):
It's not honor to be mixed up with you.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
This morning Pauline and I encountered a situation that I'm wondering, now,
is it ever okay? Is this ever acceptable? So, like
I said, we carpool together. Paulina is an absolute angel.
She picks me up every morning. I got you so grateful.
And so we ride together, and there's a couple of
elevators we hit together. There's a lot of you know,
little things we have to get through to get upstairs
(01:38):
to our studio. And the first encounter of security is
you have to scan your little key card at those
glass doors, which you guys know, but trying to build
a picture, as Paulina would say. And one of our
co workers was just slightly ahead of us this morning,
said hi, and she closed elevator on us, like right
(01:59):
as we were about to get into the ouve.
Speaker 1 (02:00):
So she saw so you were within distance that like
you were not it wasn't it wasn't like you were
on another floor coming up the escalator and she was
gonna have I mean, there are six elevators. So she
reached out and touch it. Okay, So it wasn't like
she could have just she wasn't gonna have to stand
there for twenty minutes. No, no, we're okay. So you
were that closed, but she let the elevator close in
your face.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
Yeah, which I know some people don't like to ride
the elevator up with people. I think Keky said she
does this sytems it is not about it, but it's
actutely not about you. You know, I would tell you.
So we were like, oh wow, okay, that was interesting.
Speaker 1 (02:33):
We let it go.
Speaker 2 (02:35):
Then we get up to the same floor because we
all work on the same floor, and there's another like
security checkpoint where you have to scan your key card
and then you go through the same door once again
right behind our coworker, like right behind like right behind
she opened it and then let it close right behind her. Oh,
like again could have reached out and touched her. So
(02:55):
I just was wondering, are we not teaching these things anymore?
Are they not important anymore? Do we not need to
door at a kid?
Speaker 3 (03:02):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (03:02):
I don't know, Like is it like because I was
trying to think back, like how did you learn to
do that? You're just you just did it right? I
feel like, yeah, I don't think my mom sat me
down and taught me how to keep the door open
or the elevator open.
Speaker 1 (03:11):
But maybe just being a part of society, always don't
know what doors slamming people's faces, unless, of course you
don't know them and don't want them, like like you work.
If she didn't know you, maybe she wouldn't want you
to follow her in because because you know, I don't know,
I don't know what people fall. I don't want to
be responsible for the strangers walking around here. But but
she absolutely knows who you are. Yeah, we're of the
(03:32):
biggest morning show in Chicago. She knows who you are. Yeah,
that wasn't part of it. But let's get that in there.
Let's work that in. I mean, we're all at her
place once.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
I'm not calling her all specifically, but like, you know,
if I saw the morning show hosts come in, I
wouldn't slam the door in their face. I would hold
the door for like anybody, like a dust bunny, I
don't think, I mean. And then our rebella who's you know,
same generation, says she learned from girl scouts.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
To open the door for people. I'm interesting.
Speaker 2 (03:58):
Yeah, so I don't know, is there is it ever
okay to just let doors closed?
Speaker 1 (04:04):
Whatever your parents do, your parents kind of teach you.
It's it's very rude. It was also I also think
there's just a general misunderstanding about elevator etiquette the same way,
and we don't have to go on this whole thing,
but you know the same way that I think there
seems to be a misunderstanding in certain parts of the
world about getting off an airplane. As I've already I've
already you know, shared my frustration about it. But first
(04:24):
of all, everybody gets off the elevator before you get
to get on, So there's no point in standing right
at the door and blocking people's access from exiting, because
it's not gonna go anywhere until everybody gets out. No,
there's got to be levels, right, so like you your insistent,
I'm getting on the elevator the moment the door opens
isn't gonna make any difference because people I've actually been
(04:48):
on an elevator recently where somebody got on before people
got off on the bottom floor. Why would you even
do that to yourself because you're gonna get run over
because everyone's getting out. So there's that now, I also
understand the thing, and this does happen occasionally where like
there's a lull, not you guys, of course, but there'll
be a very long distance between me and someone behind me,
(05:09):
maybe I don't know, several hundred feet, So there's a
possibility that I would wind up stuck on the elevator
with them. So I will increase my gait, I will
walk faster so that I can get to the elevator
and the door will close such I don't have to
ride up the elevator with anybody else, but that I
create the distance myself, you know what I'm saying, Like,
there's no I make it so that there's no way
(05:32):
that that situation happens where somebody feels like I blocked
them out there we are out of vision at that point.
If you're gonna do that, then you need that. I'm sorry.
In this particular situation, you guys had made eye contact.
Everybody knows you hold the elevator for that person.
Speaker 2 (05:47):
Yeah, I don't know, it just it was it was
the double for me, like one I would have let go.
Speaker 1 (05:50):
It was the double double, and somebody just sectioned. Maybe
she doesn't like y'all, and you know what, she won't
after this, So either way, it was very rude. It
was double double. I agree, rand bam, yeah, like twice. Man,
Now he's what you have.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
Also let the door close, yes, oh yes, but I
know you like to ride up.
Speaker 1 (06:14):
Alone, so that's all right.
Speaker 4 (06:15):
I would never I'm the person that will make it uncomfortable,
like you're twenty five thousand feet away, and I will
hold the door and make you do that little.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
Jog like you really want to get the door. I
hold the door for people. Yeah, But it's the elevator
that's different.
Speaker 2 (06:29):
I know.
Speaker 1 (06:31):
Not everybody listening encounters elevator situations every day, but there
are a lot of elevator use going on here because
we're in a tall building. But the other thing I
noticed yesterday was like in my building, there are four
elevators right, and one was open, and there was a
little bit of a line because I guess they were
slow and people was getting people were people was they
were getting on and there was a guy with a walker,
(06:52):
and I figured he needed a little bit more room
just to be comfortable. And so I there were four
people in the elevator, including guy with the walker, and
it looked kind of full, you know. So I and
they are four, so I was like, hey, I'll just
take the next one. And then the people there were
two people behind me, and they rush behind me to
get in the elevator and fill it up. Now I
(07:13):
had already set the way here, like we're moving on
from that one. There are four, the other one will
be here in ten seconds, and we're gonna let them
have their space. Where are you going that if you
must get in that lev it had to be that one.
I need to get to my house now, like unless
you got to take a big crapper, And even if
you do, I would argue, get in your own elevator.
(07:36):
It's gonna get to where you're going faster because you're
gonna have to stop on some other floors that might
not be yours. Just in case there's an accident. But
people are so aggressive about the elevator or they'll pack in,
like in my building, like it'll be full and like
one more and then someone else is like, why why
do you have to wait five seconds? If there's only
one elevator? I get it, right, Like there's only one
(07:57):
freight elevator, and if you own a pat you have
to use the freight elevator. Oh really, Or if you're
moving something, you have to use the freight elevator. So
I get it. And there's only one and it's a big,
tall building, so like when it comes to your floor,
you're gonna want to try and get on it because
it's not coming back for a few minutes, like it
takes a while. I get that. But the other ones,
I'm like, why why are we packing in? Like it's
(08:20):
not necessary.
Speaker 2 (08:21):
Let's work together, Like if you've got a lot of packages,
I'll say, what floor.
Speaker 1 (08:24):
Do you need? I mean, let's oh, yeah, that's another one.
Help each other, please can't. They don't have a free hand.
You just you're struggling to try. Yeah, you've ever been
left waiting by the phone. It's the Fred Show. Andy,
Good morning, Welcome to the program. How are you? Oh okay,
all right, right, let's keep it simple. So welcome to
(08:48):
waiting by the phone. We're trying to figure out what
this woman Arianna is not calling you. Why don't you
tell us all the backstory? How did you guys meet?
We got to know about any dates you've been on
and then and where things are now.
Speaker 5 (09:00):
I think they're actually very simple. So we met a
few weeks ago at a bar. It's a bar I
got to, you know, every every other weekend or so,
and I hadn't seen it there before, and I, you know,
I saw from across the way. We chatted and I
got a number and I said and I said, hey,
(09:20):
you know, I'd love to go out again. So we
went to a different place for drinks and everything seemed
everything seemed good, everything seemed nice. I said, Okay, this
went well, but then she just didn't answer any of
my calls with text afterwards.
Speaker 1 (09:37):
Okay, So you look back on this date and you
thought there was chemistry. You were attracted to her, you
felt like she was vibing with you. The conversation went well.
I mean, it wasn't forced, honestly, like everything was. You
look back and we're being self aware in this moment,
and you felt good about everything, and you left thinking
this is great. I'm gonna call Arianna and then we're
(09:58):
gonna go out again and and uh, you know, because
sometimes you'll leave a date and they'll be like, eh,
I'm not sure. I don't know how that person felt
or how I felt. None of that is going on here.
Speaker 5 (10:07):
You're saying, no, the whole time like we had, I mean, yeah,
we had like I ended up hadding like or I
mean we were there for hours and we had at
least four or five drinks, and she was having a
great time. She could have had plenty of opportunity to
you know, say, oh, you know, I got to get
out of her. Yeah, you know we hung out.
Speaker 1 (10:29):
Yeah, I don't care how much I'm trying to numb
the pain of a bad date. I'm not saying for
four drinks if it's I mean, I'm believing after two. Yeah,
if that's what's going on, right, Yeah, I hear that.
All right, Well, let's come back in a second. We're
going to play a song. Come back, We'll call Orianna.
You'll be on the phone, Andy, And the hope is
always is that we could straighten this out, figure out
what's going on while she's not calling you back, and
set you guys up on another date that we pay for. Andy. Yes,
(10:52):
I'm all right, let's call Arianna. You guys, you met
at a bar that you you kind of kind of
frequent a little bit, and he asked her. You went
to another bar on a date, you had a few drinks,
you felt like it went really well. But you have
not heard from Ariana since then, and you want to
know why exactly? Thank you? All right, let's call her now.
Good luck? Andy. Hello, Hi is this Ariana? Yes it
(11:22):
is Hey, good morning. My name is Fred. I'm calling
from the Fred Show, the Morning radio Show, and I
have to tell you that we are on the radio
right now and I would need your permission to continue
with the call. Can we chat for a couple of
minutes on the show? Would you mind?
Speaker 5 (11:36):
Maybe?
Speaker 1 (11:36):
I mean, I mean it's possible. It kind of depends
on what your definition of winning is. But we're calling
on behalf of a guy who reached out to us
named Andy, who says he went on a date with
you recently. He met you at a bar. Do you
remember Andy?
Speaker 4 (11:49):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (11:49):
Yeah, oh yeah, I know Andy. He's quite the conversationalist.
But I'm curious, you know, he reached out to us,
wondering why, after what he thought was a good date,
you're not calling him back? And so we had no
trouble getting a hold of you. You picked up for
us basically right away. So why are you not reaching
out to him calling him back? What happened? Okay?
Speaker 6 (12:09):
So the thing is, we did have a pretty good date,
Like I was having a good time, but things got
really weird towards the end.
Speaker 3 (12:16):
I needed to go to the bathroom, so I asked him.
Speaker 6 (12:19):
If we could go over to his place, And once
I saw his place, I just didn't feel like me
and Andy were a good fit.
Speaker 1 (12:26):
Why okay, all right, all right, I guess I'm curious
why right you left the venue presumably had a bathroom
to then go to his place. But with that's neither
here nor there, So I want to hear more about
this place. So you're okay? He said, sure, yeah, come back.
I'm sure he was like that, come back to the house,
you can use my bathroom. What did you see that
you didn't like?
Speaker 3 (12:44):
Okay?
Speaker 6 (12:45):
He his whole apartment was decked out in one direction
merch like a shower curtains, a clean xbox, Like who
even get that? Like where do you even buy that?
Speaker 4 (12:57):
Like?
Speaker 6 (12:57):
But you know, blanket everything.
Speaker 1 (13:00):
One direction shower curtain. I didn't know that was available.
I mean, you can get anything on anty, I guess now.
Was he being funny? Like was it like a themed room?
I don't know, like was it I don't know? Was
he being silly, you know, a silly silly boy or
was or was it scattered? Was it everywhere? Like it
wasn't like he had a one direction room? Haha, it
(13:20):
was everywhere. It was everywhere.
Speaker 3 (13:22):
And I asked him too, like what the deal was,
and he just said that he loved One Direction and
tells me that they're the grace boy band of all time.
Speaker 4 (13:33):
And I.
Speaker 1 (13:36):
No, wait a minute, if you say something like that,
break up go away. I had less of an issue
until you said that the best of all of them. Nah,
I don't know. Let me bring Andy in. I forgot
to mention that Andy is here. Andy, can you give
us a little more as what are we doing here
with the one direction all over the house as a
glass man? Yeah?
Speaker 5 (13:56):
This is weird to me too right now because I
didn't I'm absolutely flabbricasted. She was. She was not upset
at all when she saw We talked about we talked
about One Direction songs and of course it's the greatest
boy band of all time. I can't think of like,
I mean, you guys are even acting like that's weird,
(14:18):
like you're wrong.
Speaker 1 (14:20):
Of course they're the greatest boy band of all time.
I mean that's thank you. No no, no, no, no, no,
I'm not I'm not agreeing with you. I I think
that is a wild statement to make. And I have
more of an issue with that than I do. Your
propensity to collect One Direction memorabilia, I mean you're entitled,
(14:42):
you know, by what you what you want, I guess.
I mean that's a lot. I didn't even know you
could do that. I didn't even know that was.
Speaker 5 (14:47):
More available obviously. Okay, So my mom she's a really
great gifter, and you know, once, I don't know, ever
since I was a fan of you know, every Christmas,
every time she'll give me, you know, the cutest things
and that's from her, A clean next box and I treasured.
(15:11):
I think it's amazing.
Speaker 1 (15:12):
Yeah yeah, so yeah, what about the shower curtain? What
about it? Like I've had that shower curtain for for
years collector's item. Guys, it's this is vintage, all right,
this is this from back when they Okay, thank you
the deal like you grew up with it, and so
(15:33):
it resonates with like I don't know you being younger.
I don't know. I mean, where where did this connection
begin with you? In one direction? Andy, the thing come
out of my mouth at work every day, I just
there sentences that I couldn't write.
Speaker 5 (15:47):
Yes, I first started when I first started listening. I
mean there was like three There was like three songs
where I didn't even know who they were because I
was not like a band follower type of person. And
I just remember I had like I was like, oh,
this is this song is amazing, and then it was
like another song, and then I it was like the
third song and I was like, this sounds similar. And
(16:08):
then I found out it is all the same band,
and I was like, this is this is the best.
Speaker 1 (16:12):
I love it when that happens, when you find one
band does more than one something. I do love that.
That's a great thing to have happened.
Speaker 5 (16:19):
But and Harry and Harry and Liam just you know,
and Como is just I don't know.
Speaker 1 (16:24):
It's for your mind, right, right, right, right, I got it.
Speaker 5 (16:27):
I don't think it's wrong with having a favorite band
or or saying that like that's not weird at all.
I don't.
Speaker 1 (16:33):
I still can't believe you went on our air and
said they're the great dis boy band ever. I mean,
I you know, really much much respect, much respect to
one direction. They deserve their place, but again, I now
question your taste overall.
Speaker 5 (16:45):
Who would possibly be throwing the moves?
Speaker 1 (16:48):
Ya hard to say? Backstreet Boys? Hello? Anyway? Two grown
ass men arguing about the best boy band all the time.
Not what I thought I was gonna do it. Yeah, right,
Backstreet Boys.
Speaker 5 (17:01):
They basically make commercials for like laundry.
Speaker 1 (17:03):
Soap, so all good for them, you know, revenue source.
I'm that's what I mean. I mean, hey, I'll send
you a shower curtain to replace them. I'm sure you
wouldn't use it. I won't waste my money. Ariana has
been very absent in this call. I mean, so you're
just over it, like you're not going to hang out
with a man, even though you liked, you obviously enjoyed,
you know, having drinks with them. You saw that.
Speaker 3 (17:25):
I'm just I'm just shocked, Like I'm just shocked at
like how much he's like defending that this is normal,
Like it's not normal, dude, Like you're a grown man,
like you shouldn't have all this stuff.
Speaker 6 (17:37):
Like I mean, I get that your mom gave it
to you, so I guess, like it's.
Speaker 4 (17:41):
Somewhat okay, I guess, but even then, like Backstreet boys
are actually the greatest boys, So we're gonna do something,
you know, like that's really what you just.
Speaker 5 (17:53):
You know, it's whatever you just heard.
Speaker 3 (17:58):
You know that.
Speaker 1 (17:59):
I think a lot of people will share that opinion, honestly.
Speaker 5 (18:01):
But people, I mean, if you said in sync is above.
Speaker 1 (18:08):
How dare you? Well, who do you think you are? Kiki?
You know I secretly like in sync in his house?
But I mean, is this a lot of boy bands?
Speaker 5 (18:19):
All right?
Speaker 1 (18:19):
Well you know what, I got a phone number for
a generic boy band. Oh we can't, okay, you honestly,
you're beginning to offend me right now on my own air. Okay,
And so this is not this is not okay. Maybe
maybe maybe.
Speaker 5 (18:33):
Maybe YouTube could date they didn't have a Backstreet boy?
Speaker 1 (18:36):
Well maybe so because it sounds like she's available, so
smart yeah right, Ariana. Look, I'll ask the question I
have to. Would you like to go out with him again?
We'll pay for it. Then, all right, we're all going
to the sphere to see the the hack Backstreet Boys,
So I guess, I guess we want to invite you Andy.
But look, Andy, I'm sorry it's not going to work out.
(18:56):
Best of luck to both of you. Thank you,

and etiquette in general. Please take it away. I can't wait.
Speaker 2 (00:52):
Yay Lena broke, Yeah, Kaylena the carpool has something to say.
Speaker 1 (00:56):
My mom is my Her head is spinning right now
because she doesn't know which one is, which apparent a
lot we don't. A lot of people don't just based

Speaker 2 (01:10):
We love each other, so it's fine mixed aspects.
Speaker 1 (01:13):
It's not honor to be mixed up with you.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
This morning Pauline and I encountered a situation that I'm wondering, now,
is it ever okay? Is this ever acceptable? So, like
I said, we carpool together. Paulina is an absolute angel.
She picks me up every morning. I got you so grateful.
And so we ride together, and there's a couple of
elevators we hit together. There's a lot of you know,
little things we have to get through to get upstairs
(01:38):
to our studio. And the first encounter of security is
you have to scan your little key card at those

co workers was just slightly ahead of us this morning,
said hi, and she closed elevator on us, like right
(01:59):
as we were about to get into the ouve.
Speaker 1 (02:00):
So she saw so you were within distance that like
you were not it wasn't it wasn't like you were
on another floor coming up the escalator and she was
gonna have I mean, there are six elevators. So she
reached out and touch it. Okay, So it wasn't like
she could have just she wasn't gonna have to stand
there for twenty minutes. No, no, we're okay. So you
were that closed, but she let the elevator close in
your face.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
Yeah, which I know some people don't like to ride
the elevator up with people. I think Keky said she
does this sytems it is not about it, but it's
actutely not about you. You know, I would tell you.
So we were like, oh wow, okay, that was interesting.
Speaker 1 (02:33):
We let it go.
Speaker 2 (02:35):
Then we get up to the same floor because we
all work on the same floor, and there's another like
security checkpoint where you have to scan your key card
and then you go through the same door once again
right behind our coworker, like right behind like right behind
she opened it and then let it close right behind her. Oh,
like again could have reached out and touched her. So
(02:55):
I just was wondering, are we not teaching these things anymore?
Are they not important anymore? Do we not need to
door at a kid?
Speaker 3 (03:02):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (03:02):
I don't know, Like is it like because I was
trying to think back, like how did you learn to
do that? You're just you just did it right? I
feel like, yeah, I don't think my mom sat me
down and taught me how to keep the door open
or the elevator open.
Speaker 1 (03:11):
But maybe just being a part of society, always don't
know what doors slamming people's faces, unless, of course you
don't know them and don't want them, like like you work.
If she didn't know you, maybe she wouldn't want you
to follow her in because because you know, I don't know,
I don't know what people fall. I don't want to
be responsible for the strangers walking around here. But but
she absolutely knows who you are. Yeah, we're of the
(03:32):
biggest morning show in Chicago. She knows who you are. Yeah,
that wasn't part of it. But let's get that in there.
Let's work that in. I mean, we're all at her
place once.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
I'm not calling her all specifically, but like, you know,
if I saw the morning show hosts come in, I
wouldn't slam the door in their face. I would hold
the door for like anybody, like a dust bunny, I
don't think, I mean. And then our rebella who's you know,
same generation, says she learned from girl scouts.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
To open the door for people. I'm interesting.
Speaker 2 (03:58):
Yeah, so I don't know, is there is it ever
okay to just let doors closed?
Speaker 1 (04:04):
Whatever your parents do, your parents kind of teach you.
It's it's very rude. It was also I also think
there's just a general misunderstanding about elevator etiquette the same way,
and we don't have to go on this whole thing,
but you know the same way that I think there
seems to be a misunderstanding in certain parts of the
world about getting off an airplane. As I've already I've
already you know, shared my frustration about it. But first
(04:24):
of all, everybody gets off the elevator before you get
to get on, So there's no point in standing right
at the door and blocking people's access from exiting, because
it's not gonna go anywhere until everybody gets out. No,
there's got to be levels, right, so like you your insistent,
I'm getting on the elevator the moment the door opens
isn't gonna make any difference because people I've actually been
(04:48):
on an elevator recently where somebody got on before people
got off on the bottom floor. Why would you even
do that to yourself because you're gonna get run over
because everyone's getting out. So there's that now, I also
understand the thing, and this does happen occasionally where like
there's a lull, not you guys, of course, but there'll
be a very long distance between me and someone behind me,
(05:09):
maybe I don't know, several hundred feet, So there's a
possibility that I would wind up stuck on the elevator
with them. So I will increase my gait, I will
walk faster so that I can get to the elevator
and the door will close such I don't have to
ride up the elevator with anybody else, but that I
create the distance myself, you know what I'm saying, Like,
there's no I make it so that there's no way
(05:32):
that that situation happens where somebody feels like I blocked
them out there we are out of vision at that point.
If you're gonna do that, then you need that. I'm sorry.
In this particular situation, you guys had made eye contact.
Everybody knows you hold the elevator for that person.
Speaker 2 (05:47):
Yeah, I don't know, it just it was it was
the double for me, like one I would have let go.
Speaker 1 (05:50):
It was the double double, and somebody just sectioned. Maybe
she doesn't like y'all, and you know what, she won't
after this, So either way, it was very rude. It
was double double. I agree, rand bam, yeah, like twice. Man,
Now he's what you have.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
Also let the door close, yes, oh yes, but I
know you like to ride up.
Speaker 1 (06:14):
Alone, so that's all right.
Speaker 4 (06:15):
I would never I'm the person that will make it uncomfortable,
like you're twenty five thousand feet away, and I will
hold the door and make you do that little.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
Jog like you really want to get the door. I
hold the door for people. Yeah, But it's the elevator
that's different.
Speaker 2 (06:29):
I know.
Speaker 1 (06:31):
Not everybody listening encounters elevator situations every day, but there
are a lot of elevator use going on here because
we're in a tall building. But the other thing I
noticed yesterday was like in my building, there are four
elevators right, and one was open, and there was a
little bit of a line because I guess they were
slow and people was getting people were people was they
were getting on and there was a guy with a walker,
(06:52):
and I figured he needed a little bit more room
just to be comfortable. And so I there were four
people in the elevator, including guy with the walker, and
it looked kind of full, you know. So I and
they are four, so I was like, hey, I'll just
take the next one. And then the people there were
two people behind me, and they rush behind me to
get in the elevator and fill it up. Now I
(07:13):
had already set the way here, like we're moving on
from that one. There are four, the other one will
be here in ten seconds, and we're gonna let them
have their space. Where are you going that if you
must get in that lev it had to be that one.
I need to get to my house now, like unless
you got to take a big crapper, And even if
you do, I would argue, get in your own elevator.
(07:36):
It's gonna get to where you're going faster because you're
gonna have to stop on some other floors that might
not be yours. Just in case there's an accident. But
people are so aggressive about the elevator or they'll pack in,
like in my building, like it'll be full and like
one more and then someone else is like, why why
do you have to wait five seconds? If there's only
one elevator? I get it, right, Like there's only one
(07:57):
freight elevator, and if you own a pat you have
to use the freight elevator. Oh really, Or if you're
moving something, you have to use the freight elevator. So
I get it. And there's only one and it's a big,
tall building, so like when it comes to your floor,
you're gonna want to try and get on it because
it's not coming back for a few minutes, like it
takes a while. I get that. But the other ones,
I'm like, why why are we packing in? Like it's
(08:20):
not necessary.
Speaker 2 (08:21):
Let's work together, Like if you've got a lot of packages,
I'll say, what floor.
Speaker 1 (08:24):
Do you need? I mean, let's oh, yeah, that's another one.
Help each other, please can't. They don't have a free hand.
You just you're struggling to try. Yeah, you've ever been
left waiting by the phone. It's the Fred Show. Andy,
Good morning, Welcome to the program. How are you? Oh okay,
all right, right, let's keep it simple. So welcome to
(08:48):
waiting by the phone. We're trying to figure out what
this woman Arianna is not calling you. Why don't you
tell us all the backstory? How did you guys meet?
We got to know about any dates you've been on
and then and where things are now.
Speaker 5 (09:00):
I think they're actually very simple. So we met a
few weeks ago at a bar. It's a bar I
got to, you know, every every other weekend or so,
and I hadn't seen it there before, and I, you know,
I saw from across the way. We chatted and I
got a number and I said and I said, hey,
(09:20):
you know, I'd love to go out again. So we
went to a different place for drinks and everything seemed
everything seemed good, everything seemed nice. I said, Okay, this
went well, but then she just didn't answer any of
my calls with text afterwards.
Speaker 1 (09:37):
Okay, So you look back on this date and you
thought there was chemistry. You were attracted to her, you
felt like she was vibing with you. The conversation went well.
I mean, it wasn't forced, honestly, like everything was. You
look back and we're being self aware in this moment,
and you felt good about everything, and you left thinking
this is great. I'm gonna call Arianna and then we're
(09:58):
gonna go out again and and uh, you know, because
sometimes you'll leave a date and they'll be like, eh,
I'm not sure. I don't know how that person felt
or how I felt. None of that is going on here.
Speaker 5 (10:07):
You're saying, no, the whole time like we had, I mean, yeah,
we had like I ended up hadding like or I
mean we were there for hours and we had at
least four or five drinks, and she was having a
great time. She could have had plenty of opportunity to
you know, say, oh, you know, I got to get
out of her. Yeah, you know we hung out.
Speaker 1 (10:29):
Yeah, I don't care how much I'm trying to numb
the pain of a bad date. I'm not saying for
four drinks if it's I mean, I'm believing after two. Yeah,
if that's what's going on, right, Yeah, I hear that.
All right, Well, let's come back in a second. We're
going to play a song. Come back, We'll call Orianna.
You'll be on the phone, Andy, And the hope is
always is that we could straighten this out, figure out
what's going on while she's not calling you back, and
set you guys up on another date that we pay for. Andy. Yes,
(10:52):
I'm all right, let's call Arianna. You guys, you met
at a bar that you you kind of kind of
frequent a little bit, and he asked her. You went
to another bar on a date, you had a few drinks,
you felt like it went really well. But you have
not heard from Ariana since then, and you want to
know why exactly? Thank you? All right, let's call her now.
Good luck? Andy. Hello, Hi is this Ariana? Yes it
(11:22):
is Hey, good morning. My name is Fred. I'm calling
from the Fred Show, the Morning radio Show, and I
have to tell you that we are on the radio
right now and I would need your permission to continue
with the call. Can we chat for a couple of
minutes on the show? Would you mind?
Speaker 5 (11:36):
Maybe?
Speaker 1 (11:36):
I mean, I mean it's possible. It kind of depends
on what your definition of winning is. But we're calling
on behalf of a guy who reached out to us
named Andy, who says he went on a date with
you recently. He met you at a bar. Do you
remember Andy?
Speaker 4 (11:49):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (11:49):
Yeah, oh yeah, I know Andy. He's quite the conversationalist.
But I'm curious, you know, he reached out to us,
wondering why, after what he thought was a good date,
you're not calling him back? And so we had no
trouble getting a hold of you. You picked up for
us basically right away. So why are you not reaching
out to him calling him back? What happened? Okay?
Speaker 6 (12:09):
So the thing is, we did have a pretty good date,
Like I was having a good time, but things got
really weird towards the end.
Speaker 3 (12:16):
I needed to go to the bathroom, so I asked him.
Speaker 6 (12:19):
If we could go over to his place, And once
I saw his place, I just didn't feel like me
and Andy were a good fit.
Speaker 1 (12:26):
Why okay, all right, all right, I guess I'm curious
why right you left the venue presumably had a bathroom
to then go to his place. But with that's neither
here nor there, So I want to hear more about
this place. So you're okay? He said, sure, yeah, come back.
I'm sure he was like that, come back to the house,
you can use my bathroom. What did you see that
you didn't like?
Speaker 3 (12:44):
Okay?
Speaker 6 (12:45):
He his whole apartment was decked out in one direction
merch like a shower curtains, a clean xbox, Like who
even get that? Like where do you even buy that?
Speaker 4 (12:57):
Like?
Speaker 6 (12:57):
But you know, blanket everything.
Speaker 1 (13:00):
One direction shower curtain. I didn't know that was available.
I mean, you can get anything on anty, I guess now.
Was he being funny? Like was it like a themed room?
I don't know, like was it I don't know? Was
he being silly, you know, a silly silly boy or
was or was it scattered? Was it everywhere? Like it
wasn't like he had a one direction room? Haha, it
(13:20):
was everywhere. It was everywhere.
Speaker 3 (13:22):
And I asked him too, like what the deal was,
and he just said that he loved One Direction and
tells me that they're the grace boy band of all time.
Speaker 4 (13:33):
And I.
Speaker 1 (13:36):
No, wait a minute, if you say something like that,
break up go away. I had less of an issue
until you said that the best of all of them. Nah,
I don't know. Let me bring Andy in. I forgot
to mention that Andy is here. Andy, can you give
us a little more as what are we doing here
with the one direction all over the house as a
glass man? Yeah?
Speaker 5 (13:56):
This is weird to me too right now because I
didn't I'm absolutely flabbricasted. She was. She was not upset
at all when she saw We talked about we talked
about One Direction songs and of course it's the greatest
boy band of all time. I can't think of like,
I mean, you guys are even acting like that's weird,
(14:18):
like you're wrong.
Speaker 1 (14:20):
Of course they're the greatest boy band of all time.
I mean that's thank you. No no, no, no, no, no,
I'm not I'm not agreeing with you. I I think
that is a wild statement to make. And I have
more of an issue with that than I do. Your
propensity to collect One Direction memorabilia, I mean you're entitled,
(14:42):
you know, by what you what you want, I guess.
I mean that's a lot. I didn't even know you
could do that. I didn't even know that was.
Speaker 5 (14:47):
More available obviously. Okay, So my mom she's a really
great gifter, and you know, once, I don't know, ever
since I was a fan of you know, every Christmas,
every time she'll give me, you know, the cutest things
and that's from her, A clean next box and I treasured.
(15:11):
I think it's amazing.
Speaker 1 (15:12):
Yeah yeah, so yeah, what about the shower curtain? What
about it? Like I've had that shower curtain for for
years collector's item. Guys, it's this is vintage, all right,
this is this from back when they Okay, thank you
the deal like you grew up with it, and so
(15:33):
it resonates with like I don't know you being younger.
I don't know. I mean, where where did this connection
begin with you? In one direction? Andy, the thing come
out of my mouth at work every day, I just
there sentences that I couldn't write.
Speaker 5 (15:47):
Yes, I first started when I first started listening. I
mean there was like three There was like three songs
where I didn't even know who they were because I
was not like a band follower type of person. And
I just remember I had like I was like, oh,
this is this song is amazing, and then it was
like another song, and then I it was like the
third song and I was like, this sounds similar. And
(16:08):
then I found out it is all the same band,
and I was like, this is this is the best.
Speaker 1 (16:12):
I love it when that happens, when you find one
band does more than one something. I do love that.
That's a great thing to have happened.
Speaker 5 (16:19):
But and Harry and Harry and Liam just you know,
and Como is just I don't know.
Speaker 1 (16:24):
It's for your mind, right, right, right, right, I got it.
Speaker 5 (16:27):
I don't think it's wrong with having a favorite band
or or saying that like that's not weird at all.
I don't.
Speaker 1 (16:33):
I still can't believe you went on our air and
said they're the great dis boy band ever. I mean,
I you know, really much much respect, much respect to
one direction. They deserve their place, but again, I now
question your taste overall.
Speaker 5 (16:45):
Who would possibly be throwing the moves?
Speaker 1 (16:48):
Ya hard to say? Backstreet Boys? Hello? Anyway? Two grown
ass men arguing about the best boy band all the time.
Not what I thought I was gonna do it. Yeah, right,
Backstreet Boys.
Speaker 5 (17:01):
They basically make commercials for like laundry.
Speaker 1 (17:03):
Soap, so all good for them, you know, revenue source.
I'm that's what I mean. I mean, hey, I'll send
you a shower curtain to replace them. I'm sure you
wouldn't use it. I won't waste my money. Ariana has
been very absent in this call. I mean, so you're
just over it, like you're not going to hang out
with a man, even though you liked, you obviously enjoyed,
you know, having drinks with them. You saw that.
Speaker 3 (17:25):
I'm just I'm just shocked, Like I'm just shocked at
like how much he's like defending that this is normal,
Like it's not normal, dude, Like you're a grown man,
like you shouldn't have all this stuff.
Speaker 6 (17:37):
Like I mean, I get that your mom gave it
to you, so I guess, like it's.
Speaker 4 (17:41):
Somewhat okay, I guess, but even then, like Backstreet boys
are actually the greatest boys, So we're gonna do something,
you know, like that's really what you just.
Speaker 5 (17:53):
You know, it's whatever you just heard.
Speaker 3 (17:58):
You know that.
Speaker 1 (17:59):
I think a lot of people will share that opinion, honestly.
Speaker 5 (18:01):
But people, I mean, if you said in sync is above.
Speaker 1 (18:08):
How dare you? Well, who do you think you are? Kiki?
You know I secretly like in sync in his house?
But I mean, is this a lot of boy bands?
Speaker 5 (18:19):
All right?
Speaker 1 (18:19):
Well you know what, I got a phone number for
a generic boy band. Oh we can't, okay, you honestly,
you're beginning to offend me right now on my own air. Okay,
And so this is not this is not okay. Maybe
maybe maybe.
Speaker 5 (18:33):
Maybe YouTube could date they didn't have a Backstreet boy?
Speaker 1 (18:36):
Well maybe so because it sounds like she's available, so
smart yeah right, Ariana. Look, I'll ask the question I
have to. Would you like to go out with him again?
We'll pay for it. Then, all right, we're all going
to the sphere to see the the hack Backstreet Boys,
So I guess, I guess we want to invite you Andy.
But look, Andy, I'm sorry it's not going to work out.
(18:56):
Best of luck to both of you. Thank you,
