How are you, Good morning, guys, how are you doing? Okay?
What's going on with this woman? Christina is her name?
Tell us how you met, about any dates that you've
been on, and then where things are now?
Speaker 2 (00:17):
Yeah? So yeah, Christina. She's a really sweet, really really
pretty girl, and she's completely ghosting me. I'm not sure
what's going on. We met on Hinge. We went out
on a really nice date. I spent a ton of
money on her. I took her to an expensive restaurant
and we had like a great time. We were joking around,
she was laughing at everything. I don't know what happened,
(00:39):
like I had no idea.
Speaker 1 (00:42):
Okay, all right, now, I want you to I want
you to take a second. I want you to really
dig deep in your in your memory bank, like I
really want you to think back on this. Everything was normal,
like no weird topics. You know, you don't live in
an apartment where you know, in the same room as
your roommate with a sheet dividing you. You don't sleep
same bed with your roommate, like you don't you're not married, right,
(01:04):
I mean just I'm just I don't want to, you know,
ruin this whole thing. But if for I will say this,
if for once somebody was like, yeah, I have a
I live in a complete zoo, and I have you know,
five bison and a giraffe that live in my apartment.
And she thought that was weird. And there's horse crap everywhere.
I could just end it now and we could just
move on, you know, but no one ever does.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
I've got a cat and that's it. And she loves cats.
She was laughing at all the jokes, like I literally
have no idea. I was like, oh, is she allergic?
But she's like, no, I love cats. I'm like, I
don't get it.
Speaker 1 (01:34):
Ay, I means, don't ever tell me that. I don't
give up people an opportunity to like air it out,
you know, because we don't have to do part two.
I mean, but it's okay. So honestly, you like this girl,
You're frustrated because you were hoping to see her again,
and you feel like you're being ghosted and it's not
a good feeling. And it's especially not a good feeling
when you don't know why. So Let's see if we
can help you figure this out. We're gonna call Christina.
(01:55):
We're gonna ask these questions on your behalf. At some
point you're welcome to jumping on the call, and they'll hope,
as always is that we could straighten this out and
set you up on another date and pay for it. Okay, Okay, okay,

Hey Glenn, Hey, all right, let's call Christina. You guys
went on a date. You went to a restaurant, you
had a great meal, You felt like everything went really well.
I mean, I know these dating app dates can be
a bit of a wild card, but you honestly left
the day thinking this was great. I can't wait to
call her again and go on another date and explore
(02:39):
where this is going to go. Except you did all
that and she's not responding to you, and you don't
know why.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
After appearing everything went really well, not like she was
like all like mad or something. Throughout the whole thing,
she was laughing, having fun like all my jokes for landing,
which I never that never happened. So I do not
get what happened. I don't know if she found about
something or someone's gossiping or what.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
All right, well let's call her now. Good luck. Glenn. Hello, Hi?
Is this Christina?
Speaker 2 (03:15):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (03:15):
Hi, Hey, I'm sorrying to rupt you, but I just
wanted to say. My name is Fredam calling from the
Fred's Show, the Morning radio Show, and I do 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? Is that okay? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (03:31):
I guess so did I win something?
Speaker 1 (03:33):
Well? Maybe maybe we're calling on behalf of a guy
named Glenn. I guess you met on Hinge and you
guys recently had a dinner day. Do you remember Glenn?
Speaker 2 (03:40):
Yeah? Yes, I remember Glenn.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
Okay, Well, what happened with him? Because we just spoke
to him. He reached out to us and told us
that he had met you on Hinge and that you
guys went to dinner and he felt like everything went
really well and was hoping to see you again, but
says he can't get a hold of you. He feels
like he's being ghosted. So what happened? What's your version
of events?
Speaker 3 (03:59):
If you don't, Yeah, we were having a great time,
and towards the end of dinner, he got this like
scary look in his eye and he he started like
grasping at his chest, like clutching his heart, and he
(04:21):
told me that he had a shooting pain and that
he thought he might be having a heart attack. And
I was terrified.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
So I was panicking.
Speaker 3 (04:33):
I couldn't find my phone and yes, I'm like trying
to dig through my purse and then I finally got
it out and he grabbed my phone and started laughing
and and I was so confused and upset and like
and then he just said April fools. And I just
(04:55):
could not get I could not believed.
Speaker 1 (04:58):
Fake the heart attack as a joke.
Speaker 3 (05:00):
Oh my god, Yeah, not funny.
Speaker 2 (05:03):
I was it was funny.
Speaker 1 (05:05):
I wanted to see there's Glenn.
Speaker 3 (05:07):
Absolutely not.
Speaker 1 (05:08):
I forgot to mention the glenns here. I'm sorry, I'm
very forget. Yeah, the fake heart attack thing, that's the
second date. They were no other people were laughing. Why
why are we faking heart It's like deadly?
Speaker 2 (05:19):
You mean it wasn't done. It was like five seconds
and then I stopped. Like it wasn't like a like a.
Speaker 1 (05:25):
Whole order improv comedy on our day.
Speaker 2 (05:30):
We're having fun.
Speaker 1 (05:32):
I don't think any sort of thing where you your
health may be in jeopardy is funny, ever, and it's
bad karma closer, but I'm not.
Speaker 2 (05:41):
How karma works. Like I joke about winning the lottery
all the time, and I don't win the lottery, Like
I'm not Like if I joke about a heart attack,
I'm not just gonna get one. That's not how That's
not how it works attacks.
Speaker 1 (05:51):
And why are you doing April fools anyway? Yeah we
know how everybody in here feels about April Fools. But yeah,
this isn't an walk walk up opportunity, and nor is
it a chance for you to try, and I don't know,
impose some kind of fake near death experience on this woman.
That's very traumatic. How do you know she hasn't been
in a situation before? I mean someone mentioned this, but
(06:13):
how do you know she hasn't someone hasn't died of
a heart attack? In her life, or she hasn't been
present when someone else had a I mean, that's not funny.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
If I live with that kind of like what did
this happen? What had that happened? I would be like
living with anxiety. It's a joke that I've used before.
Other people think it's funny.
Speaker 1 (06:28):
Part of the repertoire before, Glenn, because you are sick.
Speaker 2 (06:37):
And I'd be sick if I took it off to
another level, like if I made the cause be called
and went in an ambulance and they went just kidding,
that would be sick.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
I thought you would get arrested for that, charged a
lot of money for wasting people's time and resources.
Speaker 2 (06:52):
Exactly.
Speaker 1 (06:53):
We didn't know, did we. Yeah, But I mean there
are certain topics that just aren't funny, you know, and
I think that's one of them. But with that attitude,
it's my attitude that's the problem.
Speaker 3 (07:04):
Yeah, Okay, thinking a heart attack is not funny. A
joke about a heart attack might be funny.
Speaker 2 (07:10):
Maybe that's what it was. No, it was what what
determines a joke? What determines a joke? You know what?
I think you should look that up because you do
not know Okay, I'll ask Table two and three because
they were laughing too, So maybe we all configure they've.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
Been laughing at you, or maybe they were uncomfortable because
they thought they were watching a you know, a disaster.
I don't, I don't know, I don't. I don't think
it's funny. Why do you die on this hill? It's
really odd, You're odd in seid. Let me doing that? Yeah,
let me ask you this, Christina. If he hadn't done that,
were we on? Were things going well? Or was it?
(07:48):
Was it kind of walka walka the whole time? Was
it a budget? Was he using all of his material
on you?
Speaker 3 (07:55):
No, we really were having a great time. But that
was just it was too far and it wasn't funny.
Speaker 2 (08:02):
And so what did I just do those jokes with you?
Speaker 1 (08:04):
You realize, Glenn, if you have a joke, if you
were well, if you had just said, Glenn, if you
had just said, okay, you know what, I took it
too far? That wasn't funny. I'm sorry. I have a
feeling this call would end differently, But you've instead spent
the last four minutes telling us why fake heart attacks
are funny. They are okay and there you go, So okay,
(08:26):
I'm gonna ask the question, Christina, would you like would
you like to go out with Glenn again? We'll pay
for it?
Speaker 2 (08:32):
Absolutely not.
Speaker 1 (08:33):
You don't think it funny always having it? I think
he was having.
Speaker 2 (08:46):
You laugh? You sick person who laughed?
Speaker 1 (08:49):
Who is it? Sorry? I'm laughing it. How ridiculousness is?
I'm just scared.
Speaker 2 (08:58):
I threw my point.
Speaker 1 (08:59):
We're not laughing to ohther Bro, we're laughing for We're
laughing for two different reasons.
Speaker 2 (09:04):
You don't know how comedy works.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
Oh, I don't think you God? All right? Well good,
I mean I'm not. I was gonna say good luck
at Second City, but I'm not even gonna put that
on you because I don't go. Yeah, I don't think
those guys would do that. But Christina, look, I'm sorry,
