Speaker 1 (00:00):
Fred's show is on Fred's Biggest Stories of the Day.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
Somebody said that I and this is a multi part
story on TikTok. I played for the first part, but
it does go on. I guess this guy the Disneyland story,
the guy who was gonna take his kid at Disneyland,
disney World, whatever, he was the other kid's stepparent for
a period of time. I guess, so, oh wow, Okay,
(00:25):
but yet it's complicated. But I still contend that if
I'm not Look, if if I'm a stepparent and then
I have a kid with those kids mom and we're
a family unit, we're married, and we're together. No, I
can't break off and just take my kid somewhere, right
(00:46):
because again, my mom got remarried, and then the guy
she married raised us, and you know, he's our dad
and whatever. If they had had another child together, I
know they would have made every effort to make us
all feel equal, even though that was our half sibling,
right Like Aman and I would have had the same
mom and dad, and then we would have had the
same mom.
Speaker 3 (01:04):
But they didn't do that.
Speaker 2 (01:05):
But if they had, and I know that, then my
dad couldn't just break off and take his quote unquote
kid and do something cool and leave us behind. But
if they were to break up, then I understand. But
at the same time, it's like, so, then if I
can only afford to take my kids somewhere and I'm
not I'm not a part of that family anymore, really,
(01:27):
then I just don't take I just don't get to
do anything with my kid because I can't afford to
take six people. It's very complicated, I would agree, But
so do you rob your child of the experience you
can afford to give him or her or because you
can't do it times five? Or do you or do
you just say, look, this is what I can afford
to do, We're gonna do this, and then maybe, I
don't know, if the relationship persists with the other kids,
(01:50):
maybe you do something different with all.
Speaker 3 (01:52):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
I really don't know the answer, but I guess if
you default towards I'm just not going to do anything
with my kid that I can't do with everybody, then
that's gonna limit a lot of things because that's a
big ass family.
Speaker 3 (02:02):
And is the mom gonna chip in it? Why is it?
Speaker 2 (02:05):
Why is this woman not saying, well, then I want
everyone to go, so I'll pay more than half so
that everybody else can. So that's not that hasn't come
up at all. You know, she's just going, if he's
gonna take this kid, he has to take all of them.
Speaker 4 (02:18):
You know, you're right about that, but also too in
a way, And I hate saying this, but I think
it's true. He's kind of entitled to that one on
one time.
Speaker 5 (02:24):
With his child.
Speaker 4 (02:25):
Zoo Like, maybe this disneything is special to him and
he wants to take his kid.
Speaker 5 (02:29):
And I understand he was the step parent to the
other children.
Speaker 4 (02:32):
At some point, and I respect that, but also I
don't know, it's that one on one time with your kid,
and I feel like he's entitled.
Speaker 5 (02:37):
To that too.
Speaker 2 (02:38):
He is.
Speaker 5 (02:38):
I'm a sucker. I would take all the kids. I couldn't.
Speaker 6 (02:42):
I couldn't see myself pulling up and I was I
lived in this house with these kids at one point.
Speaker 3 (02:47):
You're invested in their lifetimes. I like, you don't know them.
Speaker 7 (02:50):
I feel like once you're invested, like you then have
a responsibility for almost ever to at least like have
some sort of special experiences with them.
Speaker 5 (02:59):
Did you not love me as a stepparent when you
lived here.
Speaker 6 (03:01):
You know what I'm saying, As I could, never I would,
I would save my opinion and take them off. But
as you said, probably he is entitled to that one
on one time. You know, it's just about how you
do things.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
I don't love you enough to have a two hundred
credit score because I can't pay the credit card bill
after I took all these kids.
Speaker 5 (03:18):
You don't love the kids.
Speaker 8 (03:22):
Free.
Speaker 5 (03:23):
You don't love the kids.
Speaker 2 (03:24):
Enough enough to have a two hundred credit score because
I can't pay the bill, because I can't take six
kids to Disneyland.
Speaker 3 (03:29):
No, I don't.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
That's crazy.
Speaker 5 (03:31):
You're gonna leave me at Paulina at home. It's just takes.
Speaker 7 (03:35):
Mean, I'll tell you the last place I want.
Speaker 3 (03:41):
I took.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
I took Caitlin and Jason on one trip. I'm taking
Kiki on another.
Speaker 3 (03:45):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
Paulina and I went to the shooting range together and
got our concealed weapons permits.
Speaker 5 (03:49):
That's all that matters.
Speaker 2 (03:51):
I mean, you know, we had our our daddy daughter time.
It sounds weird, but you know everybody was invited, but
no one else came, So I don't know. I mean,
I feel like you know you guys do stuff, you know,
Jason Caitlin hang out together. And I mean, I don't know.
It's not everyone's going to be able to do everything
all the time. And yet there's still a lot of
love for me. It's just, you know, what can I
(04:13):
afford to do? What is my what is my immediate responsibility?
And I guess if I'm one hundred years old someday
and my kid is seventy and I didn't get to
do anything cool with my kid because I couldn't afford
to take all the kids, some of which were not
technically mine, and I'm not with their mom anymore.
Speaker 3 (04:29):
That's a shame. Yeah, you know.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
So biggest stories of the day BYU loses to Alabama
last night, Sweet sixteen Duke over Arizona, Florida over Maryland,
and Texas Tech Big comeback over Arkansas. I know, Jason,
your bracket must be just bracketing. Yeah, it's just blown up,
you know, bracket.
Speaker 3 (04:48):
Yeah, who do you have winning the whole thing? Jason?
Speaker 2 (04:50):
I'd love to know who, because, you know, Sweet sixteen,
we're getting down to the nitty gritty here. Who do
you have winning the entire tournament? Uh?
Speaker 7 (04:56):
You know, the ogs the Alabama huh.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
Yeah of Alabama winning MIIL. Well, that's an interesting pick.
They did win last night, so oh hell yeah, okay, yeah,
and I just said that, So yeah, tonight, here's we
sixty old Miss Michigan State, Kentucky, Tennessee, Michigan, Auburn, and
Purdue Houston. So we'll be down to the final four
by Monday. So very exciting everyone. What else do I
(05:23):
have for you this morning? And biggest stories of the day? Oh,
another sports story. There's a guy making all kinds of
news for the NFL Draft, which is upcoming. A defensive
tackle named Desmond Watson could become the heaviest player ever
drafted after impressing scouts at Florida's Pro Day. This dude
is six foot six, four hundred and sixty four pounds
(05:43):
and he can bench two hundred and twenty five pounds
thirty six times, So he can lift me up thirty
six times.
Speaker 3 (05:50):
That's nice. But he is six six four sixty four.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
And his bench press topped any bench press performance at
this year's NFL Combine. He also covered the forty yard
dash in five point nine three seconds and recorded twenty
five inches in the vertical jump. I couldn't do any
of that in I weigh half of this guy what
this guy does. So the coach of the Florida Gators
described him as a unicorn. You'll go the rest of
your career and you'll never be around a guy of
(06:16):
that stature.
Speaker 3 (06:16):
That's a big freaking dude.
Speaker 2 (06:19):
So the next time that you get mad at your quarterback,
you know, for throwing the ball and it doesn't it
doesn't go right on target, just realize there's a dude
who's four hundred and sixty four pounds running towards his
ass as he's throwing the ball. I don't know, man,
I would be. I'd be so scared if I were
quarterback in the NFL. I get the ball and I
would just ah going away. And it needs to get
(06:41):
run over all the time by guys like that. This
story is for Paulina, and if I had some stab
boys to mend music on hand, I would play it.
I don't have the record cueued up right now, But Paulina,
there are big changes coming to your beloved Hooters.
Speaker 5 (06:58):
Today's not the time, please.
Speaker 2 (07:02):
No big change is coming in to the beloved Hooters.
The iconic chain is making moves to save itself from
the brink of bankruptcy by scrapping its infamous bikini knights.
Speaker 1 (07:13):
Oh, bikini n.
Speaker 3 (07:18):
I don't think I've ever attended bikini Knights.
Speaker 9 (07:20):
And.
Speaker 5 (07:22):
I don't want to go now. But they're taking it away,
So how are we gonna do that?
Speaker 3 (07:25):
I remember the first time my dad took me to Hooters.
Speaker 2 (07:27):
I think I was like thirteen, and I prepared for
it like I was going to a strip club as
an adult, Like I thought. I thought we were doing
something very salacious. Oh yeah, oh, because it was a
relatively new thing when I was young.
Speaker 3 (07:37):
I was like, we're going to Hooters.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
It's still We're just a restaurant, you know, very much
open to the public, family environment.
Speaker 3 (07:43):
But I thought, why are we playing?
Speaker 1 (07:46):
Oh okay, exact what does this have to do with
my part?
Speaker 3 (07:58):
I'm like, why is the random Bruno mars on point
right now?
Speaker 4 (08:01):
You guys are paying attention, that's cool, Well, how.
Speaker 2 (08:04):
Can I not hear that? Bams just started screaming at
me about grenades, So are you gonna are you going
to catch a grenade for Hooters so that they don't
have to stop doing bikini Nights.
Speaker 4 (08:15):
I would give anything to Hooters at this point is
that what is It's a night of bikini.
Speaker 1 (08:22):
This doesn't seem sanitary bikinis.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
Well, Jason, let me tell you a lot of things
that aren't sanitary that people do.
Speaker 7 (08:28):
Okay, I mean, I know it works in a restaurant,
but just like having your bikinis, Like, oh, I don't
know there.
Speaker 2 (08:34):
Are bikini restaurants. I don't know how many there are anymore.
But then like the two thousands, they were like, bikini
restaurants don't need that. Well you could just go and
somebody in bikini serving you. I'm like, okay, but yeah,
they're looking for a more family friendly focus. The CEO
calls it a rehooterization of the brand. I'm going to
(08:56):
use that today. I'm going to use that in a
sentence today. I'm going to rehooterize this weekend.
Speaker 3 (09:00):
You know what I mean.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
It's a shift towards well, they did go on a
shift towards more RISKU uniforms and marketing. The company is
going back to its roots, aiming to appeal to a
wider audience. A vendor working at the Wisconsin State Fairgrounds
is accused of putting super glue in his coworker's soda,
which I this has got to be This could be
bad for so many reasons. But a woman said, in
(09:25):
the past couple of weeks, well because Hooter stopped the
bikini knights. A woman said in the past couple of
weeks the drinks on her desk had a strong chemical
smell and taste. After she drank the beverages, she told
State Fair police to set up a surveillance camera to
monitor her drink on her desk, and the camera caught
her coworker putting something in her drink. Police interviewed the
(09:45):
guy who admitted to placing his supplements was what he
called it, in his coworker's Coca cola. What they found
were clear protective gloves and a Gorilla brand super glue
container and a cap in the trash near his office
the Milwaukee County District Attorney's office. His father fel on
account of placing foreign objects in edibles. I guess that's
(10:05):
a charge. But yeah, you don't do that. That is
not a nice thing to do. You don't like your coworker,
You upset about something. And this is the second cat
story of the week. I think because you know, why
not a silver Maine coon cat, which my sister has won.
I think he's forty pounds. My mom has one. I
think he's twenty five. These cats are monstrous. They look
like a little bobcats. I'm not sure that we did
(10:26):
the adopt bobcats.
Speaker 3 (10:27):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (10:29):
Have you ever seen those videos on TikTok of people
who like bring in a straight dog and it turns
out to be a wild coyote? Yes, I mean I
feel like that's what happened with my sister's cap. But
a silver main coon cat from Minnesota was awarded a
Guinness World Record after his tail was measured at eighteen
and a half inches long. Mister Pugsley Adams is his name,
(10:49):
and I guess he's a very easy going cat. Two
years old and he has an almost nineteen inch long tail. Wow, right,
So yeah, congratulations cat for that that. I kind of
figured somebody was gonna make like an eighteen inch joke,
but then no one did.
Speaker 5 (11:08):
So this morning I.
Speaker 3 (11:12):
Slow pitched that one to you.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
I just kind of let it hang there and I
was like, is anyone going to make an eighteen inch No,
you're not, Okay, So it's national something on a stick. Day,
and Matt okay, go all right, and that National Weed
Appreciation Day, and Canley was sure to write in here
garden weeds, not the other kind. So you see, we're
wondering which I mean next valid, because I feel like
these days weed appreciation me it could mean a lot
(11:36):
of things. The Entertainmber of Fort Chans did for Kaitlyn
Next Fresh show. I tell you about my server and
I hop on. I think it was Saturday morning at
four am. At at three am, I don't even know
what I was doing out of three am.
Speaker 3 (11:48):
Yeah, wait, wait, I.
Speaker 5 (11:51):
Need the story of what you were doing. Story time.
Speaker 1 (11:52):
Let's go.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
Well, I was, I was, I was back home in Arizona,
and I was Trevor and Chris the man Animal, you know,
the three of us got together the Crazian we call
these a little little Asian man the Crazian and whichever's
been on the show before, and and we went out
for whatever reason, like old times, and we went to
a bunch of places and then we and my friend
Trevor's not drinking, so he was driving, and so we
(12:15):
were out laid and then we go to He's like,
I'm hungry, so we go to I hoop at like
three in the morning, and our server, a very nice woman,
says that she just arrived from another state where she
just got out of prison, basically, and of course I
had to ask because I may have been inebriated. And
I mean, how come on, somebody says to you, I
just got out of prison. I mean, you got to
ask the question. And apparently, and I don't know, just
(12:36):
you talking about Kim Kardashian in prison reform, I guess
just made me think of this. But she she she
admitted that she was on a work release program where
she would go to prison at night or jail and
then leave and then go to work and then go
back to jail at night. And she said she wanted
to bring some drugs in for her friends one night.
You know, she just wanted her friends to have some
(12:56):
drugs and wow, And so she snuck drug back into jail.
I think she was on a drug charge as it is.
Speaker 3 (13:04):
Stop.
Speaker 2 (13:04):
So she she went for work release, came back with
some party favors, they found them, and she didn't leave
for four years after that.
Speaker 7 (13:12):
So you know, yeah, that's a felony right to bring
that into a prison.
Speaker 3 (13:16):
Oh yeah, you know you're not supposed to do that, right.
Speaker 7 (13:19):
Yeah, and she already had a drug charge that was
probably not good.
Speaker 2 (13:23):
So so we need to call Kim Kardashian and see
if she can investigate this, because you know, this is
concerning to me. She was a good but I was like,
that's what I said to her, That's exactly what we
said to her, were like, you know what, you are
an excellent friend. You know, you know somebody you were
thinking of other people there and you were, and that
(13:43):
what a sacrifice your life.
Speaker 7 (13:46):
Trying to give your girls the party you were into
a little party night.
Speaker 2 (13:49):
You know.
Speaker 3 (13:49):
I love that. Wet'll sleepover, never.
Speaker 2 (13:54):
Been left waiting by the phone.
Speaker 3 (13:57):
It's the Fred Show.
Speaker 2 (13:58):
Hey Ben, good morning, welcome too. How are you good, guys?
Speaker 8 (14:02):
How are we doing today?
Speaker 3 (14:03):
Doing all right?
Speaker 2 (14:03):
What's going on with this woman Sarah? I gotta know everything?
How did you guys meet? Tell us about any dates
you've been on, and then where things are now?
Speaker 8 (14:10):
All right?
Speaker 9 (14:11):
So?
Speaker 8 (14:11):
Uh, I mean just to be kind of brief with it,
because I mean, this doesn't crazy. So I went out
with the ship Sarah a couple of nights ago, and
I met her on like the apps, right, Like I
met her online and so we started talking on the
internet and doing our thing, and then yeah, we went
on a date a couple of nights ago, and I
honestly felt like we had a pretty great day. I
thought everything was going smooth. But like I mean, we
(14:33):
were like talking all night. It was great, Like it
was a great day. And then I get a couple
of days later, I still haven't gotten any word from her.
I haven't heard anything whatsoever. She goes to me, and
so clearly I got the long impression, and that's, uh,
that's kind of why I'm bringing this to you, guys.
I'm bringing this to the professionals, cause I thought it
was a great date, but.
Speaker 3 (14:52):
She goes to me.
Speaker 2 (14:53):
Let's let's use professionals loosely here. But we are unlicensed,
but we do have a lot of experience in this.
But you said your note to us that you guys,
you went on this date. You talked all night. So
this wasn't like a you know, you went on a day,
you had a couple of drinks, somebody wanted out, you know,
she wanted to bail, and then she ghosted you. I mean,
like you guys had a connection, because if you're talking
to somebody all night.
Speaker 3 (15:13):
You know you're connecting no aru.
Speaker 8 (15:15):
Because like so we get to the rest start at
like seven seven thirty and we left when it closed
at eleven thirty, so we talked all night.
Speaker 2 (15:21):
See, I would think that's good, right, Like I would
think if that's the kind of date that I go on,
that this is a person who's interested and I'm going
to hear from them again. But anyway, let's stop, play
a song. Come back in a couple of minutes. Ben,
We're gonna call this woman Farah who you went out with.
We're gonna see if we can get her on the phone.
We're gonna ask these questions for you. You'll be on
the phone at the same time. And the hope is
always is that we can straighten this out and set
(15:41):
you guys up on another date that we pay for.
Sound good, Let's see what's going on in part two
of Waiting at the Phone. Next after go Got Bruno
Mars back in two minutes on the French Show. Got
Got Bruno Mars. The French Show is on the radio
on the iHeart app Live and catch up anytime. Search
for the frend Show on demand and make us pre set. Hey, Ben.
All right, let's call this woman Farah. You guys met
(16:02):
on the apps, you went out, and something interesting that
you shared about this date is that you went and
you know, I don't know, seven thirty for the date,
and you wound up closing the restaurant down. The conversation
was that intense and in depth and extensive, and yet
you haven't heard from her since the date. You feel
like you're being ghosted. You want to know why?
Speaker 8 (16:20):
Yeah, I feel like it's weird because we were definitely clicking.
We talked for hours and now I got any picks back.
Speaker 3 (16:24):
All right, well, let's call her now. Good luck? Ben? Hello,
Hi is this Farah?
Speaker 9 (16:38):
Yeah?
Speaker 8 (16:38):
Who's this?
Speaker 3 (16:39):
Hey? Farah? Good morning. My name is Fred.
Speaker 2 (16:41):
I'm calling from the Fred's Show, the Morning radio show,
and I have to tell you that we are on
the radio right now, and I would need your permission
to continue with the call. Can we chat for just
a second, would you mind?
Speaker 9 (16:51):
Okay?
Speaker 3 (16:51):
Well, thank you very much for calling on.
Speaker 2 (16:53):
Behalf of a guy named Ben who says he met
you on one of the dating apps and you guys
recently went on a date.
Speaker 3 (16:58):
Do you remember him?
Speaker 9 (16:59):
Of course I remember Ben?
Speaker 3 (17:01):
Of course you remember him. So what does that mean?
Speaker 2 (17:03):
Because you know, he reached out to us and told
you that he liked you, and he said that it
was a long date. You guys conversed for a long time,
and he was excited to see you again. And I
guess he figured because you the day was so long,
that you were into him and that you'd call him back.
But he says that you haven't, So are you ghosting him?
And if so, why, well.
Speaker 9 (17:24):
Let's start at the beginning.
Speaker 3 (17:26):
Oh yeah, at the beginning.
Speaker 9 (17:30):
Yeah, So just to clarify, I was super busy the
day of our date. I had barely had any time
to eat, so I was excited that he invited me
to dinner and we go to a restaurant that he picked.
But then he was making lots of comments on how
(17:50):
expensive it was. Okay, yeah, yeah, like oh this is
a lot blah blah blah.
Speaker 2 (17:58):
But he tak the place, so like he's complaining about
how expensive it was, but like he told you where
to go, So what do you get.
Speaker 3 (18:03):
You're like, I don't grow this was your call.
Speaker 8 (18:05):
Right right?
Speaker 2 (18:08):
Yeah?
Speaker 9 (18:08):
It was like almost making me feel guilty even though
I had no control over it. And we ordered drinks
and then when the waitress came back, he asked if
he could order off the kids menu.
Speaker 2 (18:22):
The kids menu, So you wanted some maca cheese and
some chicken fingers, Now you want it because that's like
what he eats, like he's one of these kind of
people that only eats like kids kind of food, or
because it was cheap.
Speaker 9 (18:35):
I think cheap, like if you want chicken nuggets, I
can respect that, but I think he just wanted the
cheapest option.
Speaker 3 (18:45):
Okay, So then what happened, Well.
Speaker 9 (18:47):
He told the waitress that we needed more time, and
then the waitress came back like four times, and he
kept telling her that he wasn't ready yet, and then
he would just go back to talking to me. Finally,
the waitress comes and says that they're going to close
the kitchen and I said, look, I have to eat
or I'm going to pass out. He said fine, told
(19:10):
her we would split something, and then he ordered for.
Speaker 5 (19:12):
Both of us.
Speaker 2 (19:13):
Yeah, he don't want to spend any money on this
day because he's stalling. And then he's like okay, and
then finally he orders something. He chooses that you then do.
You don't even get to order your own thing, and
what happens.
Speaker 9 (19:24):
Yeah, then he ate most of it.
Speaker 3 (19:28):
Oh my god. Okay, all right, so this didn't spend
any money.
Speaker 9 (19:33):
No, it just it made me feel like he really
didn't plan this very well and wasn't being super considerate
of me. And honestly, I would have split the bill
with him if he was really concerned. But I mean,
after he decided to order for me, like screw it.
Speaker 2 (19:54):
Okay, Well, let me bring Ben into this because I
failed to mention that Bennis here. It's like he may
have fallen asleep after all this, but I'm not sure.
Speaker 3 (20:02):
Bet are you there?
Speaker 8 (20:03):
Hey, guys, hey, fair.
Speaker 2 (20:07):
This because normally they get knowing people are like oh
and they get kind of upset nothing about it.
Speaker 3 (20:11):
But Ben, what are we doing?
Speaker 2 (20:13):
Man? Why are we going to you know, the most
expensive restaurant or a super expensive place and then not
letting her order and and being surprised at how much
stuff caused? I mean, it's kind of rude to go
on a date and bring up how expensive stuff is,
especially if you picked the place.
Speaker 8 (20:27):
I mean, my thing is that, like I think she's
kind of putting this vibe on it of like, oh,
Ben didn't want to spend the money or something like
that that that this is crazy. Look, I'm just this
is this is where it was for me, is that
I was just more into her than I was like
the food. You know what I mean, I was just
(20:47):
into the conversation and like chatting and vibing with her.
Because you guys heard the way that I described the
situation or the date when when I first called you guys,
it was that we were there for hour and we
were vibing and clicking for hours. That's what I thought
was going down, was that. But you were just more
into the conversation and each other than the food.
Speaker 2 (21:08):
Then you can vibe and click and also nourish your body, right,
you know, with some food, you know what I mean.
Speaker 3 (21:13):
Like you're at a restaurant.
Speaker 2 (21:15):
The person who you invited expects to eat, The waitress
expects you to eat, you know, the people that own
the restaurant expect you to eat. I mean, you know,
and I guess I look, you may have picked a
place you to realize how expensive it was.
Speaker 3 (21:28):
There's a way out of that.
Speaker 2 (21:29):
I mean, you could be like, hey, you want to
let's get a drink here and then let's jump over
to this other place or whatever. But I mean, you know,
ordered off the kids menu or whatever else, like you
just didn't want to pay I do.
Speaker 8 (21:39):
I'm gonna hold my ground that that's not what this was.
I eat, Okay. I will admit that I pulled up
and when I saw the prices on the menu, it
was just thrilled about them. I'll admit that. But I
wasn't excited to pay what I was about to pay
for a signal entree on.
Speaker 3 (21:56):
That freaking menu.
Speaker 8 (21:57):
But I will admit that I think that this is
a situation of her thinking that I'm cheap or whatever
when that's not the case. I was ready to pay
for whatever. I just I mean, I honestly just was
enjoying her in the conversation More eleven thirty and I'm placing.
Speaker 9 (22:14):
It's not just about you being cheap. It's about you
not paying attention to me and what I needed, which.
Speaker 3 (22:22):
Was Yeah, she's about to burst out over here.
Speaker 2 (22:24):
This woman needs to eae something. Look, Kiki. If I
go to a movie, I expect a movie to come on.
If I go to a bar, I expect them to
serve me a drink. If I go on a dinner date,
if I'm invited on a dinner date, then I expect
there to be dinner.
Speaker 3 (22:37):
I don't think it's unfair.
Speaker 5 (22:38):
No, this is given broke boy energy.
Speaker 6 (22:41):
No disrespect, man, But I think you need to stop
trying to date until you get your money right, Like
you got to build up your funds and then go out.
Because taking a grown woman on a date and asking
for the kid menu.
Speaker 5 (22:51):
Is like in saying she had eat.
Speaker 3 (22:53):
Yeah, no disrespect, but you broke as disrespect though, Yeah I.
Speaker 5 (22:57):
Ever heard of broken it's giving broke boy energy.
Speaker 8 (23:00):
All right. Look, I just I don't think that this
is a situation of broke boy energy, and I will
prove it with this because if I was on some
broke boy stuff, then would I be ready to ask
for on a second date.
Speaker 5 (23:11):
To her again? Right, fool me twice. Come on out.
Speaker 2 (23:17):
You're gonna take her to the park or something somewhere,
the public library, something that's free. Look, man, I don't
I'm not knocking anybody who doesn't want to spend or
can't afford to spend a bunch of money on a
on a dinner date. But then you you if you
knew that might be a problem, then you got to
look ahead of time. And pick a place where you're
gonna put your best foot forward. I mean, you ask
someone to do something, you're hosting them essentially, and you
(23:40):
want to make a good impression.
Speaker 3 (23:42):
Then you got to pay for the date. Man.
Speaker 2 (23:45):
It's not even like you took her somewhere and she
went and order the most expensive thing on the menu
or whatever.
Speaker 3 (23:50):
She just wanted something from the menu.
Speaker 2 (23:53):
Right.
Speaker 4 (23:53):
They were sitting there, like the kitchen clothes, and then
I'm about to close down the closing shift and.
Speaker 2 (24:02):
H I mean, let me ask you this, Uh, Pharah,
would you have split the bill with him? I mean,
it may not have been the best impression, but at
least you would have gotten somebod to eat out of
the deal. You could have you know, ordered something and
then just knowing that you were gonna have to pay
for it.
Speaker 8 (24:14):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (24:15):
Absolutely, It's just you know, I put all this work,
like us gals put all this work to look super
nice for our dates. And I don't know any guy
who takes as much time getting ready as I do.
I mean, the least you can do is make sure
that I'm able to.
Speaker 6 (24:29):
Eat right, Like, next time, take her to a happy hour,
you know where it's like appetizers and light bites you
go for.
Speaker 5 (24:36):
To try to take out to the dinner. Yeah.
Speaker 9 (24:40):
Yeah, if I'm going on a date after work, I
do not have time to go to work, eat, then
get dressed, and then go on your date.
Speaker 3 (24:49):
And you got to feed your date. Man, you got
to you know what?
Speaker 8 (24:52):
And I feel you it is really it is.
Speaker 3 (24:55):
It is difficult. I'll bring the neutral grain bar or
something whatever.
Speaker 8 (24:59):
We got to do, figure something out in case she's
hungry like that. I didn't know she was hungry like that.
Speaker 3 (25:10):
Like so.
Speaker 2 (25:11):
For dinner, I mean, what are you gonna bring her
some fruits?
Speaker 8 (25:17):
But you're saying I need all these appetizers and stuff
like that. So I'm like, okay, well if I bring
a nutri grain bar, then I got all my bases covered.
We can take four and a half. Five and a half.
Speaker 9 (25:25):
That was what we need, and like one kids menu mode,
just bring me a bag of cheerios while you're at it.
Speaker 2 (25:32):
Yeah, I know, this is the stuff we do for
my four year old niece. But anyway, I'll ask the
question fair. I think I know the answer, But would
you like to go out with then again, we'll pay
for it so that won't be an issue.
Speaker 3 (25:44):
I know, Okay, all right.
Speaker 8 (25:46):
Okay, we'll can I have the money and go out
by myself.
Speaker 6 (25:49):
I got you know what, we should probably give it
to him, like I think he needs some groceries.
Speaker 2 (25:54):
I know, man, I'm gonna go buy you some nutri
grain bars and I'll send it to your house Amazons
were You'll be fine. Uh you know, guys, I wish
you both the best of luck. Thank you for your time.
This is wild.
Speaker 8 (26:05):

Speaker 1 (32:00):
The Fread Show is on Fread's Fun Fact Fred much.
Speaker 3 (32:11):
All right, guys, let's learn so much, shall we?
Speaker 2 (32:13):
So? Are you familiar with Fort Knox? I mean you've
heard referred to before. Fort Knox. It's in Kentucky. It's
one of the most secure places in the US due
to the fact that it's home to more than one
hundred and forty seven point three million ounces of gold
bullyon according to the myt During World War Two, it
even stored the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, and the
(32:34):
Bill of Rights, so obviously there's strict precautions when it
comes to access. For instance, there are very few people
who are aware of the actual structure of the facility,
and there's not one single person who knows all the
procedures to open the vault entirely, so there's not one
single individual on earth that has access to all the gold.
(32:55):
It takes multiple people to get to the gold, which
feels a lot like my MySpace page. I would love
I would love to get into my MySpace page and
see the time capsule that was, that he is and was,
and and the days of the Foxhawk and the True
Religion Jens. I'd love to see it, But it's like
Fort Knox there and my Yahoo email account which is
connected to my MySpace. I don't know how to get
(33:15):
into either one of them, So never again will any
of that ever be seen.
Speaker 3 (33:20):
It's a lot like Fort Knox and God it is
more Fred
Fred's show is on Fred's Biggest Stories of the Day.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
Somebody said that I and this is a multi part
story on TikTok. I played for the first part, but
it does go on. I guess this guy the Disneyland story,
the guy who was gonna take his kid at Disneyland,
disney World, whatever, he was the other kid's stepparent for
a period of time. I guess, so, oh wow, Okay,
(00:25):
but yet it's complicated. But I still contend that if
I'm not Look, if if I'm a stepparent and then
I have a kid with those kids mom and we're
a family unit, we're married, and we're together. No, I
can't break off and just take my kid somewhere, right
(00:46):
because again, my mom got remarried, and then the guy
she married raised us, and you know, he's our dad
and whatever. If they had had another child together, I
know they would have made every effort to make us
all feel equal, even though that was our half sibling,
right Like Aman and I would have had the same
mom and dad, and then we would have had the
same mom.
Speaker 3 (01:04):
But they didn't do that.
Speaker 2 (01:05):
But if they had, and I know that, then my
dad couldn't just break off and take his quote unquote
kid and do something cool and leave us behind. But
if they were to break up, then I understand. But
at the same time, it's like, so, then if I
can only afford to take my kids somewhere and I'm
not I'm not a part of that family anymore, really,
(01:27):
then I just don't take I just don't get to
do anything with my kid because I can't afford to
take six people. It's very complicated, I would agree, But
so do you rob your child of the experience you
can afford to give him or her or because you
can't do it times five? Or do you or do
you just say, look, this is what I can afford
to do, We're gonna do this, and then maybe, I
don't know, if the relationship persists with the other kids,
(01:50):
maybe you do something different with all.
Speaker 3 (01:52):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
I really don't know the answer, but I guess if
you default towards I'm just not going to do anything
with my kid that I can't do with everybody, then
that's gonna limit a lot of things because that's a
big ass family.
Speaker 3 (02:02):
And is the mom gonna chip in it? Why is it?
Speaker 2 (02:05):
Why is this woman not saying, well, then I want
everyone to go, so I'll pay more than half so
that everybody else can. So that's not that hasn't come
up at all. You know, she's just going, if he's
gonna take this kid, he has to take all of them.
Speaker 4 (02:18):
You know, you're right about that, but also too in
a way, And I hate saying this, but I think
it's true. He's kind of entitled to that one on
one time.
Speaker 5 (02:24):
With his child.
Speaker 4 (02:25):
Zoo Like, maybe this disneything is special to him and
he wants to take his kid.
Speaker 5 (02:29):
And I understand he was the step parent to the
other children.
Speaker 4 (02:32):
At some point, and I respect that, but also I
don't know, it's that one on one time with your kid,
and I feel like he's entitled.
Speaker 5 (02:37):
To that too.
Speaker 2 (02:38):
He is.
Speaker 5 (02:38):
I'm a sucker. I would take all the kids. I couldn't.
Speaker 6 (02:42):
I couldn't see myself pulling up and I was I
lived in this house with these kids at one point.
Speaker 3 (02:47):
You're invested in their lifetimes. I like, you don't know them.
Speaker 7 (02:50):
I feel like once you're invested, like you then have
a responsibility for almost ever to at least like have
some sort of special experiences with them.
Speaker 5 (02:59):
Did you not love me as a stepparent when you
lived here.
Speaker 6 (03:01):
You know what I'm saying, As I could, never I would,
I would save my opinion and take them off. But
as you said, probably he is entitled to that one
on one time. You know, it's just about how you
do things.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
I don't love you enough to have a two hundred
credit score because I can't pay the credit card bill
after I took all these kids.
Speaker 5 (03:18):
You don't love the kids.
Speaker 8 (03:22):
Free.
Speaker 5 (03:23):
You don't love the kids.
Speaker 2 (03:24):
Enough enough to have a two hundred credit score because
I can't pay the bill, because I can't take six
kids to Disneyland.
Speaker 3 (03:29):
No, I don't.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
That's crazy.
Speaker 5 (03:31):
You're gonna leave me at Paulina at home. It's just takes.
Speaker 7 (03:35):
Mean, I'll tell you the last place I want.
Speaker 3 (03:41):
I took.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
I took Caitlin and Jason on one trip. I'm taking
Kiki on another.
Speaker 3 (03:45):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
Paulina and I went to the shooting range together and
got our concealed weapons permits.
Speaker 5 (03:49):
That's all that matters.
Speaker 2 (03:51):
I mean, you know, we had our our daddy daughter time.
It sounds weird, but you know everybody was invited, but
no one else came, So I don't know. I mean,
I feel like you know you guys do stuff, you know,
Jason Caitlin hang out together. And I mean, I don't know.
It's not everyone's going to be able to do everything
all the time. And yet there's still a lot of
love for me. It's just, you know, what can I
(04:13):
afford to do? What is my what is my immediate responsibility?
And I guess if I'm one hundred years old someday
and my kid is seventy and I didn't get to
do anything cool with my kid because I couldn't afford
to take all the kids, some of which were not
technically mine, and I'm not with their mom anymore.
Speaker 3 (04:29):
That's a shame. Yeah, you know.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
So biggest stories of the day BYU loses to Alabama
last night, Sweet sixteen Duke over Arizona, Florida over Maryland,
and Texas Tech Big comeback over Arkansas. I know, Jason,
your bracket must be just bracketing. Yeah, it's just blown up,
you know, bracket.
Speaker 3 (04:48):
Yeah, who do you have winning the whole thing? Jason?
Speaker 2 (04:50):
I'd love to know who, because, you know, Sweet sixteen,
we're getting down to the nitty gritty here. Who do
you have winning the entire tournament? Uh?
Speaker 7 (04:56):
You know, the ogs the Alabama huh.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
Yeah of Alabama winning MIIL. Well, that's an interesting pick.
They did win last night, so oh hell yeah, okay, yeah,
and I just said that, So yeah, tonight, here's we
sixty old Miss Michigan State, Kentucky, Tennessee, Michigan, Auburn, and
Purdue Houston. So we'll be down to the final four
by Monday. So very exciting everyone. What else do I
(05:23):
have for you this morning? And biggest stories of the day? Oh,
another sports story. There's a guy making all kinds of
news for the NFL Draft, which is upcoming. A defensive
tackle named Desmond Watson could become the heaviest player ever
drafted after impressing scouts at Florida's Pro Day. This dude
is six foot six, four hundred and sixty four pounds
(05:43):
and he can bench two hundred and twenty five pounds
thirty six times, So he can lift me up thirty
six times.
Speaker 3 (05:50):
That's nice. But he is six six four sixty four.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
And his bench press topped any bench press performance at
this year's NFL Combine. He also covered the forty yard
dash in five point nine three seconds and recorded twenty
five inches in the vertical jump. I couldn't do any
of that in I weigh half of this guy what
this guy does. So the coach of the Florida Gators
described him as a unicorn. You'll go the rest of
your career and you'll never be around a guy of
(06:16):
that stature.
Speaker 3 (06:16):
That's a big freaking dude.
Speaker 2 (06:19):
So the next time that you get mad at your quarterback,
you know, for throwing the ball and it doesn't it
doesn't go right on target, just realize there's a dude
who's four hundred and sixty four pounds running towards his
ass as he's throwing the ball. I don't know, man,
I would be. I'd be so scared if I were
quarterback in the NFL. I get the ball and I
would just ah going away. And it needs to get
(06:41):
run over all the time by guys like that. This
story is for Paulina, and if I had some stab
boys to mend music on hand, I would play it.
I don't have the record cueued up right now, But Paulina,
there are big changes coming to your beloved Hooters.
Speaker 5 (06:58):
Today's not the time, please.
Speaker 2 (07:02):
No big change is coming in to the beloved Hooters.
The iconic chain is making moves to save itself from
the brink of bankruptcy by scrapping its infamous bikini knights.
Speaker 1 (07:13):
Oh, bikini n.
Speaker 3 (07:18):
I don't think I've ever attended bikini Knights.
Speaker 9 (07:20):
And.
Speaker 5 (07:22):
I don't want to go now. But they're taking it away,
So how are we gonna do that?
Speaker 3 (07:25):
I remember the first time my dad took me to Hooters.
Speaker 2 (07:27):
I think I was like thirteen, and I prepared for
it like I was going to a strip club as
an adult, Like I thought. I thought we were doing
something very salacious. Oh yeah, oh, because it was a
relatively new thing when I was young.
Speaker 3 (07:37):
I was like, we're going to Hooters.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
It's still We're just a restaurant, you know, very much
open to the public, family environment.
Speaker 3 (07:43):
But I thought, why are we playing?
Speaker 1 (07:46):
Oh okay, exact what does this have to do with
my part?
Speaker 3 (07:58):
I'm like, why is the random Bruno mars on point
right now?
Speaker 4 (08:01):
You guys are paying attention, that's cool, Well, how.
Speaker 2 (08:04):
Can I not hear that? Bams just started screaming at
me about grenades, So are you gonna are you going
to catch a grenade for Hooters so that they don't
have to stop doing bikini Nights.
Speaker 4 (08:15):
I would give anything to Hooters at this point is
that what is It's a night of bikini.
Speaker 1 (08:22):
This doesn't seem sanitary bikinis.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
Well, Jason, let me tell you a lot of things
that aren't sanitary that people do.
Speaker 7 (08:28):
Okay, I mean, I know it works in a restaurant,
but just like having your bikinis, Like, oh, I don't
know there.
Speaker 2 (08:34):
Are bikini restaurants. I don't know how many there are anymore.
But then like the two thousands, they were like, bikini
restaurants don't need that. Well you could just go and
somebody in bikini serving you. I'm like, okay, but yeah,
they're looking for a more family friendly focus. The CEO
calls it a rehooterization of the brand. I'm going to
(08:56):
use that today. I'm going to use that in a
sentence today. I'm going to rehooterize this weekend.
Speaker 3 (09:00):
You know what I mean.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
It's a shift towards well, they did go on a
shift towards more RISKU uniforms and marketing. The company is
going back to its roots, aiming to appeal to a
wider audience. A vendor working at the Wisconsin State Fairgrounds
is accused of putting super glue in his coworker's soda,
which I this has got to be This could be
bad for so many reasons. But a woman said, in
(09:25):
the past couple of weeks, well because Hooter stopped the
bikini knights. A woman said in the past couple of
weeks the drinks on her desk had a strong chemical
smell and taste. After she drank the beverages, she told
State Fair police to set up a surveillance camera to
monitor her drink on her desk, and the camera caught
her coworker putting something in her drink. Police interviewed the
(09:45):
guy who admitted to placing his supplements was what he
called it, in his coworker's Coca cola. What they found
were clear protective gloves and a Gorilla brand super glue
container and a cap in the trash near his office
the Milwaukee County District Attorney's office. His father fel on
account of placing foreign objects in edibles. I guess that's
(10:05):
a charge. But yeah, you don't do that. That is
not a nice thing to do. You don't like your coworker,
You upset about something. And this is the second cat
story of the week. I think because you know, why
not a silver Maine coon cat, which my sister has won.
I think he's forty pounds. My mom has one. I
think he's twenty five. These cats are monstrous. They look
like a little bobcats. I'm not sure that we did
(10:26):
the adopt bobcats.
Speaker 3 (10:27):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (10:29):
Have you ever seen those videos on TikTok of people
who like bring in a straight dog and it turns
out to be a wild coyote? Yes, I mean I
feel like that's what happened with my sister's cap. But
a silver main coon cat from Minnesota was awarded a
Guinness World Record after his tail was measured at eighteen
and a half inches long. Mister Pugsley Adams is his name,
(10:49):
and I guess he's a very easy going cat. Two
years old and he has an almost nineteen inch long tail. Wow, right,
So yeah, congratulations cat for that that. I kind of
figured somebody was gonna make like an eighteen inch joke,
but then no one did.
Speaker 5 (11:08):
So this morning I.
Speaker 3 (11:12):
Slow pitched that one to you.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
I just kind of let it hang there and I
was like, is anyone going to make an eighteen inch No,
you're not, Okay, So it's national something on a stick. Day,
and Matt okay, go all right, and that National Weed
Appreciation Day, and Canley was sure to write in here
garden weeds, not the other kind. So you see, we're
wondering which I mean next valid, because I feel like
these days weed appreciation me it could mean a lot
(11:36):
of things. The Entertainmber of Fort Chans did for Kaitlyn
Next Fresh show. I tell you about my server and
I hop on. I think it was Saturday morning at
four am. At at three am, I don't even know
what I was doing out of three am.
Speaker 3 (11:48):
Yeah, wait, wait, I.
Speaker 5 (11:51):
Need the story of what you were doing. Story time.
Speaker 1 (11:52):
Let's go.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
Well, I was, I was, I was back home in Arizona,
and I was Trevor and Chris the man Animal, you know,
the three of us got together the Crazian we call
these a little little Asian man the Crazian and whichever's
been on the show before, and and we went out
for whatever reason, like old times, and we went to
a bunch of places and then we and my friend
Trevor's not drinking, so he was driving, and so we
(12:15):
were out laid and then we go to He's like,
I'm hungry, so we go to I hoop at like
three in the morning, and our server, a very nice woman,
says that she just arrived from another state where she
just got out of prison, basically, and of course I
had to ask because I may have been inebriated. And
I mean, how come on, somebody says to you, I
just got out of prison. I mean, you got to
ask the question. And apparently, and I don't know, just
(12:36):
you talking about Kim Kardashian in prison reform, I guess
just made me think of this. But she she she
admitted that she was on a work release program where
she would go to prison at night or jail and
then leave and then go to work and then go
back to jail at night. And she said she wanted
to bring some drugs in for her friends one night.
You know, she just wanted her friends to have some
(12:56):
drugs and wow, And so she snuck drug back into jail.
I think she was on a drug charge as it is.
Speaker 3 (13:04):
Stop.
Speaker 2 (13:04):
So she she went for work release, came back with
some party favors, they found them, and she didn't leave
for four years after that.
Speaker 7 (13:12):
So you know, yeah, that's a felony right to bring
that into a prison.
Speaker 3 (13:16):
Oh yeah, you know you're not supposed to do that, right.
Speaker 7 (13:19):
Yeah, and she already had a drug charge that was
probably not good.
Speaker 2 (13:23):
So so we need to call Kim Kardashian and see
if she can investigate this, because you know, this is
concerning to me. She was a good but I was like,
that's what I said to her, That's exactly what we
said to her, were like, you know what, you are
an excellent friend. You know, you know somebody you were
thinking of other people there and you were, and that
(13:43):
what a sacrifice your life.
Speaker 7 (13:46):
Trying to give your girls the party you were into
a little party night.
Speaker 2 (13:49):
You know.
Speaker 3 (13:49):
I love that. Wet'll sleepover, never.
Speaker 2 (13:54):
Been left waiting by the phone.
Speaker 3 (13:57):
It's the Fred Show.
Speaker 2 (13:58):
Hey Ben, good morning, welcome too. How are you good, guys?
Speaker 8 (14:02):
How are we doing today?
Speaker 3 (14:03):
Doing all right?
Speaker 2 (14:03):
What's going on with this woman Sarah? I gotta know everything?
How did you guys meet? Tell us about any dates
you've been on, and then where things are now?
Speaker 8 (14:10):
All right?
Speaker 9 (14:11):
So?
Speaker 8 (14:11):
Uh, I mean just to be kind of brief with it,
because I mean, this doesn't crazy. So I went out
with the ship Sarah a couple of nights ago, and
I met her on like the apps, right, Like I
met her online and so we started talking on the
internet and doing our thing, and then yeah, we went
on a date a couple of nights ago, and I
honestly felt like we had a pretty great day. I
thought everything was going smooth. But like I mean, we
(14:33):
were like talking all night. It was great, Like it
was a great day. And then I get a couple
of days later, I still haven't gotten any word from her.
I haven't heard anything whatsoever. She goes to me, and
so clearly I got the long impression, and that's, uh,
that's kind of why I'm bringing this to you, guys.
I'm bringing this to the professionals, cause I thought it
was a great date, but.
Speaker 3 (14:52):
She goes to me.
Speaker 2 (14:53):
Let's let's use professionals loosely here. But we are unlicensed,
but we do have a lot of experience in this.
But you said your note to us that you guys,
you went on this date. You talked all night. So
this wasn't like a you know, you went on a day,
you had a couple of drinks, somebody wanted out, you know,
she wanted to bail, and then she ghosted you. I mean,
like you guys had a connection, because if you're talking
to somebody all night.
Speaker 3 (15:13):
You know you're connecting no aru.
Speaker 8 (15:15):
Because like so we get to the rest start at
like seven seven thirty and we left when it closed
at eleven thirty, so we talked all night.
Speaker 2 (15:21):
See, I would think that's good, right, Like I would
think if that's the kind of date that I go on,
that this is a person who's interested and I'm going
to hear from them again. But anyway, let's stop, play
a song. Come back in a couple of minutes. Ben,
We're gonna call this woman Farah who you went out with.
We're gonna see if we can get her on the phone.
We're gonna ask these questions for you. You'll be on
the phone at the same time. And the hope is
always is that we can straighten this out and set
(15:41):
you guys up on another date that we pay for.
Sound good, Let's see what's going on in part two
of Waiting at the Phone. Next after go Got Bruno
Mars back in two minutes on the French Show. Got
Got Bruno Mars. The French Show is on the radio
on the iHeart app Live and catch up anytime. Search
for the frend Show on demand and make us pre set. Hey, Ben.
All right, let's call this woman Farah. You guys met
(16:02):
on the apps, you went out, and something interesting that
you shared about this date is that you went and
you know, I don't know, seven thirty for the date,
and you wound up closing the restaurant down. The conversation
was that intense and in depth and extensive, and yet
you haven't heard from her since the date. You feel
like you're being ghosted. You want to know why?
Speaker 8 (16:20):
Yeah, I feel like it's weird because we were definitely clicking.
We talked for hours and now I got any picks back.
Speaker 3 (16:24):
All right, well, let's call her now. Good luck? Ben? Hello,
Hi is this Farah?
Speaker 9 (16:38):
Yeah?
Speaker 8 (16:38):
Who's this?
Speaker 3 (16:39):
Hey? Farah? Good morning. My name is Fred.
Speaker 2 (16:41):
I'm calling from the Fred's Show, the Morning radio show,
and I have to tell you that we are on
the radio right now, and I would need your permission
to continue with the call. Can we chat for just
a second, would you mind?
Speaker 9 (16:51):
Okay?
Speaker 3 (16:51):
Well, thank you very much for calling on.
Speaker 2 (16:53):
Behalf of a guy named Ben who says he met
you on one of the dating apps and you guys
recently went on a date.
Speaker 3 (16:58):
Do you remember him?
Speaker 9 (16:59):
Of course I remember Ben?
Speaker 3 (17:01):
Of course you remember him. So what does that mean?
Speaker 2 (17:03):
Because you know, he reached out to us and told
you that he liked you, and he said that it
was a long date. You guys conversed for a long time,
and he was excited to see you again. And I
guess he figured because you the day was so long,
that you were into him and that you'd call him back.
But he says that you haven't, So are you ghosting him?
And if so, why, well.
Speaker 9 (17:24):
Let's start at the beginning.
Speaker 3 (17:26):
Oh yeah, at the beginning.
Speaker 9 (17:30):
Yeah, So just to clarify, I was super busy the
day of our date. I had barely had any time
to eat, so I was excited that he invited me
to dinner and we go to a restaurant that he picked.
But then he was making lots of comments on how
(17:50):
expensive it was. Okay, yeah, yeah, like oh this is
a lot blah blah blah.
Speaker 2 (17:58):
But he tak the place, so like he's complaining about
how expensive it was, but like he told you where
to go, So what do you get.
Speaker 3 (18:03):
You're like, I don't grow this was your call.
Speaker 8 (18:05):
Right right?
Speaker 2 (18:08):
Yeah?
Speaker 9 (18:08):
It was like almost making me feel guilty even though
I had no control over it. And we ordered drinks
and then when the waitress came back, he asked if
he could order off the kids menu.
Speaker 2 (18:22):
The kids menu, So you wanted some maca cheese and
some chicken fingers, Now you want it because that's like
what he eats, like he's one of these kind of
people that only eats like kids kind of food, or
because it was cheap.
Speaker 9 (18:35):
I think cheap, like if you want chicken nuggets, I
can respect that, but I think he just wanted the
cheapest option.
Speaker 3 (18:45):
Okay, So then what happened, Well.
Speaker 9 (18:47):
He told the waitress that we needed more time, and
then the waitress came back like four times, and he
kept telling her that he wasn't ready yet, and then
he would just go back to talking to me. Finally,
the waitress comes and says that they're going to close
the kitchen and I said, look, I have to eat
or I'm going to pass out. He said fine, told
(19:10):
her we would split something, and then he ordered for.
Speaker 5 (19:12):
Both of us.
Speaker 2 (19:13):
Yeah, he don't want to spend any money on this
day because he's stalling. And then he's like okay, and
then finally he orders something. He chooses that you then do.
You don't even get to order your own thing, and
what happens.
Speaker 9 (19:24):
Yeah, then he ate most of it.
Speaker 3 (19:28):
Oh my god. Okay, all right, so this didn't spend
any money.
Speaker 9 (19:33):
No, it just it made me feel like he really
didn't plan this very well and wasn't being super considerate
of me. And honestly, I would have split the bill
with him if he was really concerned. But I mean,
after he decided to order for me, like screw it.
Speaker 2 (19:54):
Okay, Well, let me bring Ben into this because I
failed to mention that Bennis here. It's like he may
have fallen asleep after all this, but I'm not sure.
Speaker 3 (20:02):
Bet are you there?
Speaker 8 (20:03):
Hey, guys, hey, fair.
Speaker 2 (20:07):
This because normally they get knowing people are like oh
and they get kind of upset nothing about it.
Speaker 3 (20:11):
But Ben, what are we doing?
Speaker 2 (20:13):
Man? Why are we going to you know, the most
expensive restaurant or a super expensive place and then not
letting her order and and being surprised at how much
stuff caused? I mean, it's kind of rude to go
on a date and bring up how expensive stuff is,
especially if you picked the place.
Speaker 8 (20:27):
I mean, my thing is that, like I think she's
kind of putting this vibe on it of like, oh,
Ben didn't want to spend the money or something like
that that that this is crazy. Look, I'm just this
is this is where it was for me, is that
I was just more into her than I was like
the food. You know what I mean, I was just
(20:47):
into the conversation and like chatting and vibing with her.
Because you guys heard the way that I described the
situation or the date when when I first called you guys,
it was that we were there for hour and we
were vibing and clicking for hours. That's what I thought
was going down, was that. But you were just more
into the conversation and each other than the food.
Speaker 2 (21:08):
Then you can vibe and click and also nourish your body, right,
you know, with some food, you know what I mean.
Speaker 3 (21:13):
Like you're at a restaurant.
Speaker 2 (21:15):
The person who you invited expects to eat, The waitress
expects you to eat, you know, the people that own
the restaurant expect you to eat. I mean, you know,
and I guess I look, you may have picked a
place you to realize how expensive it was.
Speaker 3 (21:28):
There's a way out of that.
Speaker 2 (21:29):
I mean, you could be like, hey, you want to
let's get a drink here and then let's jump over
to this other place or whatever. But I mean, you know,
ordered off the kids menu or whatever else, like you
just didn't want to pay I do.
Speaker 8 (21:39):
I'm gonna hold my ground that that's not what this was.
I eat, Okay. I will admit that I pulled up
and when I saw the prices on the menu, it
was just thrilled about them. I'll admit that. But I
wasn't excited to pay what I was about to pay
for a signal entree on.
Speaker 3 (21:56):
That freaking menu.
Speaker 8 (21:57):
But I will admit that I think that this is
a situation of her thinking that I'm cheap or whatever
when that's not the case. I was ready to pay
for whatever. I just I mean, I honestly just was
enjoying her in the conversation More eleven thirty and I'm placing.
Speaker 9 (22:14):
It's not just about you being cheap. It's about you
not paying attention to me and what I needed, which.
Speaker 3 (22:22):
Was Yeah, she's about to burst out over here.
Speaker 2 (22:24):
This woman needs to eae something. Look, Kiki. If I
go to a movie, I expect a movie to come on.
If I go to a bar, I expect them to
serve me a drink. If I go on a dinner date,
if I'm invited on a dinner date, then I expect
there to be dinner.
Speaker 3 (22:37):
I don't think it's unfair.
Speaker 5 (22:38):
No, this is given broke boy energy.
Speaker 6 (22:41):
No disrespect, man, But I think you need to stop
trying to date until you get your money right, Like
you got to build up your funds and then go out.
Because taking a grown woman on a date and asking
for the kid menu.
Speaker 5 (22:51):
Is like in saying she had eat.
Speaker 3 (22:53):
Yeah, no disrespect, but you broke as disrespect though, Yeah I.
Speaker 5 (22:57):
Ever heard of broken it's giving broke boy energy.
Speaker 8 (23:00):
All right. Look, I just I don't think that this
is a situation of broke boy energy, and I will
prove it with this because if I was on some
broke boy stuff, then would I be ready to ask
for on a second date.
Speaker 5 (23:11):
To her again? Right, fool me twice. Come on out.
Speaker 2 (23:17):
You're gonna take her to the park or something somewhere,
the public library, something that's free. Look, man, I don't
I'm not knocking anybody who doesn't want to spend or
can't afford to spend a bunch of money on a
on a dinner date. But then you you if you
knew that might be a problem, then you got to
look ahead of time. And pick a place where you're
gonna put your best foot forward. I mean, you ask
someone to do something, you're hosting them essentially, and you
(23:40):
want to make a good impression.
Speaker 3 (23:42):
Then you got to pay for the date. Man.
Speaker 2 (23:45):
It's not even like you took her somewhere and she
went and order the most expensive thing on the menu
or whatever.
Speaker 3 (23:50):
She just wanted something from the menu.
Speaker 2 (23:53):
Right.
Speaker 4 (23:53):
They were sitting there, like the kitchen clothes, and then
I'm about to close down the closing shift and.
Speaker 2 (24:02):
H I mean, let me ask you this, Uh, Pharah,
would you have split the bill with him? I mean,
it may not have been the best impression, but at
least you would have gotten somebod to eat out of
the deal. You could have you know, ordered something and
then just knowing that you were gonna have to pay
for it.
Speaker 8 (24:14):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (24:15):
Absolutely, It's just you know, I put all this work,
like us gals put all this work to look super
nice for our dates. And I don't know any guy
who takes as much time getting ready as I do.
I mean, the least you can do is make sure
that I'm able to.
Speaker 6 (24:29):
Eat right, Like, next time, take her to a happy hour,
you know where it's like appetizers and light bites you
go for.
Speaker 5 (24:36):
To try to take out to the dinner. Yeah.
Speaker 9 (24:40):
Yeah, if I'm going on a date after work, I
do not have time to go to work, eat, then
get dressed, and then go on your date.
Speaker 3 (24:49):
And you got to feed your date. Man, you got
to you know what?
Speaker 8 (24:52):
And I feel you it is really it is.
Speaker 3 (24:55):
It is difficult. I'll bring the neutral grain bar or
something whatever.
Speaker 8 (24:59):
We got to do, figure something out in case she's
hungry like that. I didn't know she was hungry like that.
Speaker 3 (25:10):
Like so.
Speaker 2 (25:11):
For dinner, I mean, what are you gonna bring her
some fruits?
Speaker 8 (25:17):
But you're saying I need all these appetizers and stuff
like that. So I'm like, okay, well if I bring
a nutri grain bar, then I got all my bases covered.
We can take four and a half. Five and a half.
Speaker 9 (25:25):
That was what we need, and like one kids menu mode,
just bring me a bag of cheerios while you're at it.
Speaker 2 (25:32):
Yeah, I know, this is the stuff we do for
my four year old niece. But anyway, I'll ask the
question fair. I think I know the answer, But would
you like to go out with then again, we'll pay
for it so that won't be an issue.
Speaker 3 (25:44):
I know, Okay, all right.
Speaker 8 (25:46):
Okay, we'll can I have the money and go out
by myself.
Speaker 6 (25:49):
I got you know what, we should probably give it
to him, like I think he needs some groceries.
Speaker 2 (25:54):
I know, man, I'm gonna go buy you some nutri
grain bars and I'll send it to your house Amazons
were You'll be fine. Uh you know, guys, I wish
you both the best of luck. Thank you for your time.
This is wild.
Speaker 8 (26:05):
Thanks guys.
Speaker 3 (26:11):
Do you have what it takes to.
