All thanks to Live Nation. Guys, what would you do
in this situation? And I really want to know? I
like because I know what everyone's gonna say, because everyone
knows what the right thing to do is. I forbid,
And I will say, for the most part, folks on

(00:44):
this show are not They do not hold back about
what they would actually do, even if it's an unpopular opinion.
Exs and yes, I got this from Reddit for I
haven't heard from Fred Hayter Lauren yet this year. On
the text line, she claims, we get everything from Reddit.
We get ninety percent of what we do from Reddit. Okay,
but I got to go through at least two or

(01:04):
three pages on Reddit to come up with enough. Consider
it five minutes out of your day that you didn't
have to spend looking for the best content.

Speaker 1 (01:11):
All right, but here's this woman product.

Speaker 2 (01:18):
Yeah, I don't know whatever she's on TikTok. I was
trying to give her credit. But you can find this
if you after you hear the content, you can tip
it in Google and find her or in Reddit for
that matter. But it's morality Monday on a Tuesday. Cause
we didn't do morality Monday on a Monday.

Speaker 1 (01:32):
We never do.

Speaker 2 (01:33):
But listen to this, this scenario here, I have to
unmute it. I got to learn how to use Reddit.
Apparently it was my first day. You know, I get
all the content for our show from Reddit. It's my
first day you're perusing it.

Speaker 3 (01:45):
I ever wondered why people say Miami tests friendships and
Vegas test relationships. Let me tell you about my New
Year's Eve. Last night, four of us get ready to
go out. I already DM a promoter for vendom, so
that way so we can get you know, there'll be alcohol, no,
you know, wait at the door. Everything's all good.

Speaker 2 (02:03):
I guess you can DM promoters. I see him on
another place. I get a lot of content for us,
which is TikTok.

Speaker 1 (02:10):
But you can eat.

Speaker 2 (02:11):
These guys will be like email me or you know
DM me. Yeah, and you won't wait in line. You
won't And this is for guys and girls. Yeah, you
won't wait in line. You won't pay for drinks. You
won't have for them, like how they make it any money?
And I understand what they want. They want women to
do that because the more women in there, the more
guys they get in there to spend all the money.

Speaker 1 (02:29):
But like you want me in there?

Speaker 2 (02:32):
You want six or five white guy, you know with
some gray hair, You gonna let me in for free?
And s get the line you look. I don't think
you're looking for my demographic. I think you're looking for
me to go pay.

Speaker 4 (02:40):
Are you and your friends still in Vegas? Tonight's the
message I got. Oh, Like, well, me and my husband
just left. I left gro You're like five years story for.

Speaker 5 (02:48):
No one works harder than a Vegas promoter, like they
be in my comments in my d M, in my
phone on It's like.

Speaker 2 (02:54):
Well, I'm sure they get paid, you know, a commission
or they get paid per per, you know, especially I'm
sure females at women they get in. And that's what
she was kind of mumbling, was that she had emailed
the promoter so that she didn't have to wait in
line with her friends for New Year's Eve in Miami.

Speaker 3 (03:09):
Here motor for vendom, so that way, he said, we
can get in. You know, there'll be alcohol, No, you know,
wait at the door. Everything's all good.

Speaker 1 (03:15):
We pull up.

Speaker 3 (03:16):
One of my friends is plus size, and they tell
her that she has to pay three hundred dollars at
the door. We all thought we were going to have
an expense free night, so no one wanted to pay
for the three hundred dollars entry. Fy. We spent over
two hours trying to figure out we're going to split it,
can she put on her credit cards, whether we're just
going to leave, go to another club, like literally just

(03:37):
doing everything, and we spent over two hours plotting and
planning and strategizing. Finally, we're ten minutes before New Year's
Eve and I personally did not want to spend my
New Year's Eve sitting on the curb, So I asked
my friend, would you be willing for us to pay
for your uber to go back home so you can
watch the ball drop, watch fireworks. We do see cresdent

(04:00):
for that way, we can at least go into the
club before midnight. She turned to me and says, I'll
get in that uber, but once I do, we are
not friends anymore.

Speaker 1 (04:09):
Here's okay, all right.

Speaker 2 (04:10):
So they were going to the club on New Year's
Eve and they weren't gonna have to pay for anything
because it worked us out. Except and I'm just paraphrasing,
we're just reiterating here what happened. And she pulls up
with her friends and one of them is a big
girl and apparently only skinny girls getting for free.

Speaker 1 (04:28):
Really, is that this happened to me in Miami? Really? Yes,
this happened to me. All the girls getting for free
except for you.

Speaker 2 (04:33):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (04:34):
They were like, you know, it's going to be three
hundred and something dollars to get in, And it was
a night that Cardi b Was performing, and it was
like my birthday weekend.

Speaker 1 (04:42):
Even though you're one of the prettiest women I've ever known.
Thank you. And I'm not just saying that like much.

Speaker 2 (04:46):
I'm not saying that to pander like it's true, Like
regardless of if you had to describe, how would you.

Speaker 1 (04:54):
I mean, I don't know.

Speaker 2 (04:55):
I sometimes like a little thicker myself. So you know
what I was saying, I see some ugly, skinny girls
in the club, So you know, I don't think it's
fair to be saying that. You know, big girls can't
get in for free.

Speaker 1 (05:06):
Beautiful and beautiful, man, it doesn't matter anyway anyway. Again,
it sounds like I'm pandering. I'm not.

Speaker 2 (05:11):
What I'm saying is like I've been in the club
and seen people who got in for free who are
not pretty but they're skinny, and it's like, well then okay,
it's the whole thing's done.

Speaker 1 (05:20):
So you this happened, This happened to me.

Speaker 6 (05:21):
In night life in general is not friendly to plus
size people. It's just not our it's not our game.
It's just not our field. They're not nice to us.
They don't welcome us. And I understand, we take up a
lot of space. We need a couch, you know what
I'm saying, Like, you know, like maybe I don't know,
but it's just nice.

Speaker 1 (05:39):
Girls in there.

Speaker 6 (05:40):
But you're talking about you know, they they they pander
to the men with money, so they want you to
come in and they think that they will allow ian
what you like.

Speaker 2 (05:49):
But guys with money like all different. Yes they do,
jameson sizes, they do.

Speaker 6 (05:54):
But a lot of times men like plus size women
in the closet, you know what I'm saying, Like they
like you at home, but they won't like you public.
So it's just a real it's just a you just
gotta be real about it. It's just not nightlife is
just not a plus size person's game. So this does happen,
but you have to as a plus size person.

Speaker 1 (06:09):
That's why I don't. I'm not going out for that.

Speaker 6 (06:11):
You know what I'm saying, Like, I'm me, you want
to look like paying three hundred dollars to come in
there in your establishment, never and buy your overly priced
drinks and sweat in your hot club, and your music
not even that good. Like it's just you know, you
just gotta be real about it. But this is very true.
This does happen, and her friends were completely wrong.

Speaker 5 (06:27):
I'm not gonna say like the two hour deliberation for me,
it's zero deliberation.

Speaker 1 (06:31):
We're dealing somewhere else.

Speaker 5 (06:32):
I think it's odd that you even wanted to go
to a place that made her feel that way. But
also as the friends, it's like, we don't even it's
doesn't phase us. We don't spend any time or any
money or anything at that place.

Speaker 1 (06:43):
We leave. We also want to know what everybody would do.

Speaker 2 (06:45):
You can context the same number eight five, five, five
nine one three five, and look I say this, Yes,
I say this as a single man without kids in
expendable income, I do say this.

Speaker 1 (06:55):
But this is what I'm gonna tell you.

Speaker 2 (06:57):
It's New Year's even, Miami, and we're approaching a leven o'clock,
eleven thirty whatever. We're not getting in another club. We've
negotiated this. If we're going to a club, I'm telling
you what I would do on the spot. I would
just pay the three hundred bucks and we're going in,
and we figured out later. And I would expect my
buddies to help me make up the difference privately, because
that's screwed up. But like if we're going to if

(07:18):
we decide to go to a club, we're not getting into.
This isn't seven o'clock. We can't go negotiate something else,
like either we're going in here and that sucks. And
but we're gonna have a good time now because we're
in or what. But like this thing where I send
my friend home is not happening. I'm just gonna pay
for it. And I think the I think the skinny
people pay the skinny people tax on that night. And

(07:39):
you can say that place sucks and I'd never go
back there or whatever. But like I'm certainly not sending
my friend home, and I'm also not standing in the street.

Speaker 5 (07:47):
You have to make sure your friend still wants to
go inside if they heard that, you know what I mean,
I'm going inside, like I wouldn't want to go inside,
and they were like never.

Speaker 2 (07:55):
So the whole night now is ruined, which I think
just exactly, but it.

Speaker 1 (07:59):
Exacerbates don't care. We're going like I don't care.

Speaker 4 (08:06):
Serious as somebody who's been in the clubs for years,
it is not that serious.

Speaker 1 (08:09):
It's so overrated. Honestly, in my opinion, No.

Speaker 2 (08:12):
I agree, but like this is what we plan to do, right,
And I guess you know, everybody should have paid. What
is the average person pay in Miami if they are paying,
I mean I've heard like three, four, five, six, seven
hundred dollars a person per personous or just I think
sometimes just to get in. And so my thing is like,
so it cost me three hundred dollars to get my

(08:32):
friend in who they don't want in, but the rest
of us are getting in for free, and then guys
are going to buy a string.

Speaker 1 (08:36):
And in this case it's females. So okay, it's whatever.

Speaker 2 (08:40):
Like it this is dumb, and principally I would make
me angry, but like it's not if we walk away now. First,
I don't know what it took two hours to debate this.
We're walking away eleven thirty, you know, we kind of
you know, like, now now the whole night is ruined,
and it's ruined because and now someone feels like it's
her fault that it's ruined because that because of the

(09:02):
shape of their body, you know what I'm saying. So
like now it's just the whole thing. It just gets
worse and worse and worse. So I feel like in
this particular case, I would say this sucks, I'd pay
the money, we'd go in and have a great time,
and then hopefully after a few drinks, no one's thinking
about it anymore. Because now walking away to eleven fifty,
this woman's mad that her friend's overweight. Now she can't,

(09:24):
which is a screwed up thing to I'm serious, Like,
in the moment, she's man, she can't get in the club.
This woman sucks, I agree, but take away the fact
that this is about someone's body body shape. You probably
have loved a friend and in a moment resented them

(09:45):
for something that was out of your control. You still
love them, but you're like, damn it, this this thing is,
this is taking our night. It's not personal, but our
night is now off. You know, we're now off track.
And so you're not mad at them. You don't dislike them,
you don't, you don't not valued. But in that moment,
you're like, because of you, we're not getting in. In
your head, you're thinking this, so just paying the money,

(10:06):
get in there, you're gonna have nice time, and then
we're never going back to that place again. Instead, now
they all walk away dejected, and now everyone's mad because
your New Year's Eve is ruined, and the person feels
bad because they feel like it was their fault and
because of something that they didn't necessarily have control over.

Speaker 1 (10:22):
In the moment.

Speaker 5 (10:23):
Yeah, well, like for example, like I had to leave.
I've been to Coachella a couple of times and someone
slipped me something one night and it made me very
sick and I had to be taken home and my
friends had to miss the whole night.

Speaker 1 (10:33):
And everybody was cool with.

Speaker 5 (10:34):
It except one friend later brought it up to me,
like you ruined by night one of Coachella, And I
was like, I look at her so differently because like,
I'm not.

Speaker 2 (10:43):
Saying you vocalize the rem right. Like we've all had
the friend who gets to drinks too much, right, Like hell,
in this case, you had no control over that, Like
you were a victim, right, which is awful, And.

Speaker 5 (10:54):
I would, hey, you guys all good, but like, you know,
just getting a little sick and trash cans.

Speaker 2 (10:59):
We probably all had the friend we go out, you know,
to a party or whatever, and the person goes zero
to one hundred, you know, and and then and then
you some someone has to be responsible for them now,
And so you're like, I love you, but I'm resentful
that you did that. In this case, this is discrimination.
But I mean, let's face it, people were texting like crazy.
This is discrimination. You should see all. This is the

(11:20):
nightclubs you do this all the time. They hold lines
for pretty people all the time, you know, and they
make they make the less attractive. And I'm using the
air quotes thing people wait in line, So this is
this is it happens all the time.

Speaker 5 (11:31):
Miami is way worse than Vegas's. I will say, like Vegas, like, well,
you know, the promoters will still give you a package
or a deal. Miami is like a different breed and
it's not just size, Like even if they don't think
you're pretty enough a.

Speaker 4 (11:42):
Miami ten, yeah yeah you're not, like they will turn
you away.

Speaker 1 (11:46):
It's right cover in Miami.

Speaker 5 (11:50):
I wanted to go to eleven and Hillary and I
had to pay cover, Like I guess we were you.

Speaker 1 (11:54):
Know, we didn't have big yabos or something.

Speaker 4 (11:56):
What bothers me too, is that the promoter helped them
set this up right, So like now I go to
him and be like like bro, like what like what
what's the deal?

Speaker 1 (12:03):
Because like you told me, we can come like this
is great. This body discriminate whatever you want to call
this isn't well.

Speaker 2 (12:09):
And people are saying like I wouldn't give that place
a dollar, I wouldn't go under. But I understand what
you're saying, except where are we gonna like, in this
particular example, we're just gonna stand there.

Speaker 6 (12:20):
Yeah, we're going home, Benny to Airbnb. We're gonna pop
some fireworks and something. We're gonna drink and pop a bottle. Yeah,
I mean, I guess I just go to the club.

Speaker 1 (12:30):
Anyway.

Speaker 6 (12:31):
You can't go to the club and just stand with
the people they came with, So.

Speaker 1 (12:34):
It's like, we don't you're not gonna find me in
line for this anyway, like this is happening and get
a bottle. I don't know, but I think I would.

Speaker 2 (12:43):
I think my tennis would be to just try and
save it, just save it and and be like this
sucks and be mad about it, but save it and
then we move on and we worry about it later.

Speaker 6 (12:51):
But just ride at home like I spent three.

Speaker 1 (12:56):
You wouldn't. You can't do that, Like you either.

Speaker 2 (13:00):
You got to do it for the better of the
betterment of the group, yeah, or you can't be mad
about it.

Speaker 5 (13:05):
That only works if the friend's okay with going inside
still though, yeah, if they heard it, unless they didn't
hear it, then you just pay it and you're like.

Speaker 1 (13:13):
Hey, gee, New Year, Hey happy to you. You're good morning.

Speaker 2 (13:18):
So morality Monday on a on a Tuesday. Basically, this
lady is saying if he wanted her, her big girlfriend
who couldn't get in the club because they said they
had that she had to pay, and the rest of
them didn't wanted her to take uber and go home.

Speaker 7 (13:31):
What do you think she's not a friend, she's too superficial.
She honestly like that was so wrong. Either they could
have just gone somewhere else or everyone.

Speaker 1 (13:42):
Should have pitched them. I think it's ridiculous, am I,
But hopefully you know. The good thing is is she's
just saving so much more time and effort now by
finding this out.

Speaker 2 (13:53):
Yeah, thank you your vacation.

Speaker 1 (13:56):
You know you're spending like dude, like, don't be cheap.

Speaker 2 (13:58):
If it's for us what I mean, like we can
then thank you. Gee, you have a great day. I'm
glad you called them. That's the thing, Like you you
could say I don't want to go to the club,
and I wouldn't go to the club. Okay. They flew
to Miami and decided to go to the club. That
was the plan. So that so we can debate whether
you want to go or not but that's what they did.
So what are we gonna do now, We're gonna We're
just gonna go home with our hands in our pockets. Like, no, yes,

(14:19):
I'm gonna save the night. You can't have to save
a person over here to me.

Speaker 5 (14:24):
I mean, you know, my friend was like, I still
want to go inside. I pay it all and just
never ask for the money back.

Speaker 6 (14:30):
You know.

Speaker 2 (14:31):
Now people want to know what wound up happening. I'm
not sure. I mean I would imagine, well.

Speaker 6 (14:36):
I wouldn't be their friends after two hours of deliberation.

Speaker 2 (14:38):
Right in front of this place, talking about it for
two Like, no, that's the thing. If you show up
three hours before, right, we've already come up with it.

Speaker 1 (14:47):
As soon as you say to me.

Speaker 2 (14:49):
If you said to me at nine o'clock on New
Year's Eve, she ain't getting in unless she pays three
hundred bucks. We're moving on. We're gonna try and find
another plan. But if it's eleven thirty and it's like,
all right, well this is poor planning. Change. It is
more upset about the logistics, you know. But you're right,
the promoter knew this when the promoter said, you guys

(15:09):
are all in for free, so I'd probably hit up
the promoter and be like, hey, we're standing here, Yeah,
you told me to come here.

Speaker 1 (15:15):
I blow up your phone now, right, right,
