Good morning, welcome to the program. How are you doing good?

Speaker 3 (00:50):
Good to be here?
Speaker 1 (00:51):
Doing good? Yeah? I mean you're good, but you got
g Hey is it good to be here? You got
no shit?
Speaker 3 (00:56):
Bro?
Speaker 1 (00:59):
I hate to break its? Do you even know? I mean?
So you went out with a woman named Lucy, and
you know, kind of give us the backstories that we
can get caught up here. How did you meet her?
How many dates have you been on? And you know
she is she ignoring you completely? Or you know kind
of where we at?
Speaker 3 (01:14):
Well, okay, so we we met on the apps, right,
and we went out on a date and I thought
it was going pretty good. And uh, I don't know
we well, okay, before that, we I got her number
and I invited her to go to brunch. Okay, I
(01:38):
thought we had a great time. But you know, after
after we said by, I never I never really heard
from her again.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
All right, So it's a typical thing if you've done
this before. You you matched on the dating app, you
chat a little bit, you get the phone number, maybe
you switch over to texting, and then you set up
a date and you went and your your takeaway from
the date is that you liked her and you thought
there was chemistry, except for whatever reason, you have not
heard from her since then, and so you're sort of
at a loss because it's like, well, I had a
(02:07):
good time and I thought the vibe was there, so
why wouldn't this person call me?
Speaker 3 (02:11):
Right?
Speaker 1 (02:12):
Okay, let's call Lucy in just a second. We'll see
if we can get her on the phone, and we
usually can, and we'll ask these questions on your behalf,
and then at some point you're welcome to jump in
on the call. And the hope is that we can
straighten this out and set you guys up on another
date that we pay for. Sound good, Hey, justin Hey,
all right, let's call it Lucy. You met on one
of the apps. You know, it's a tale so old
(02:32):
as time, Paulina. We you went on. It wasn't there,
We didn't do anything, but you know you went on
the date, and you've thought everything went really well. You
were hoping to see this person again. You've reached out
to plan something and you have not heard from Lucy
at all, and you want to know.
Speaker 3 (02:46):
Why it didn't Radio silence for a while.
Speaker 1 (02:49):
Now, okay, let's call her now, good luck?
Speaker 4 (02:56):
Hello?
Speaker 2 (02:58):
Hi?
Speaker 1 (02:58):
Is this Lucy?
Speaker 3 (03:00):
Hi?
Speaker 1 (03:00):
Yeah, this is Lucy I be I mean, I don't
really like answering strangers phone calls either, but we're glad
that you did. 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 you you can hang up or you know, whatever
you want? Is that cool? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (03:21):
No, that's good, we can continue.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
All right? Well, thank you. I'm calling on behalf of
a dude who reached out to us, whose name is Justin.
I guess you guys went on a date recently, met
on I think one of the apps. Do you remember
this guy?
Speaker 4 (03:33):
Yes, yeah, I remember Justin.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
We didn't meet on one of the apps.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
Okay, Well, he called us and he had nice things
to say about you, and he said that he was
really happy to meet you and thought the date went well.
He says that he has not heard from you since
the date. I guess he's reached out tried to plan
something and you're unavailable, not around. What's going on? Why
are you ignoring him?
Speaker 4 (03:51):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (03:52):
So, you know, we were went to this place, we
went off for brunch and we were talking for a
while and then out of nowhere, he asked to see
my ID, and you know, it caught me off guard,
and I was like, why do you want to see
my ID?
Speaker 4 (04:07):
And then it follows up with well, you look really young,
and I'm just trying to catch a pedophile case.
Speaker 1 (04:16):
I mean, what like what exactly? Not a word to
use on a first date in any context. And I'm
not the world's best dater, but I think, I know,
do you look? Are you really young looking? I mean,
have you gotten that before?
Speaker 4 (04:33):
I mean, I'm in my thirties, but I I guess,
thank you. I mean, every time I go to the
liquor store, they don't ask to see my ID. Every
time I buy tobacco, they don't ask to see my ID.
Speaker 1 (04:46):
Ordered anyone on a date before? Like it, That's what
I'm saying, miss sand see what's going on? It was, Yeah,
So I think he's watching too many of those videos
online of these predators being caught or something. And why
is he so let me justin and I forgot to
mention the justice here. Why are you so sensitive about
her age?
Speaker 3 (05:04):
I mean, no, I don't think it was that weird.
I mean, I look, I think it's better to be
safe than sorry.
Speaker 1 (05:13):
I mean, honestly, I like, but I mean to say
to someone on the first day, can I see your idea?
I'm not trying to catch a case, like why have
you have you gotten close to that before? I mean
that seems like a very pointed thing. No, no, no,
do you belong to any online registries within two hundred
(05:33):
feet of a school? Okay?
Speaker 3 (05:35):
Look, I think it's just you've seen it on the
news all the time about people, you know, getting budget
for that kind of thing.
Speaker 4 (05:44):
I mean, I don't know what their channel he's watching
because I've never seen that.
Speaker 1 (05:48):
I mean, those people typically are online asking for it. Yeah,
it's a different thing. Yeah, yeah, I mean, look, I
think when you when you drop the P word that
particular were on a first date, that's a little bit embracist.
It's usually not a topic that we go and again
society to that would be sort of alarming to me,
(06:08):
I think. And that's kind of where you're coming from, right,
Lucy Like, oh oh wow? Yeah.
Speaker 4 (06:13):
Well, you know, he's a sweet guy, and we had
a lot of good conversation, and I wanted to see
him again. I really did, because I like the way
the conversation flowed. I like what we were talking about.
He looks good. I'm not gonna lie about that. He's
a good looking guy. But then you will drop that
on me. I don't want anything to do with you, dude.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
Yeah, yeah, I think there's a list of words you
don't use on a first date, and that's that's certainly
on there. From my understanding, I'm wondering if you percent.
Speaker 2 (06:43):
No politics, no religion, no pedophilia, it's PRP.
Speaker 1 (06:49):
Everybody everybody knows at finances, don't talk about that. I would.
I would rather he asked for your What were you saying, Justin?
I don't know why I'm letting you talk about go ahead.
Speaker 3 (07:07):
I was just I was saying it so there wouldn't
be any misunderstanding about that kind of stuff.
Speaker 1 (07:12):
You know what I mean? But who wasn't who misunderstand? Okay, okay,
so let me ask the question, Lucy. The guy was
he was just double checking his work over here. He
was just making sure everything was on the up and up,
I guess. And so I think you've already said it.
But I'll ask the questions so we're clear. Would you
like to go out with Justin again? We'll pay for
(07:32):
it and he'll not. Well, we're all clear on our
identities and things.
Speaker 4 (07:37):
Yeah, No, I'm good.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
Okay, she's good, Justin.
Speaker 3 (07:41):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
I don't. I don't. I'm not sure what to say.
I just don't.
Speaker 3 (07:46):
Well, look, I just think it's you know, I guess
I'm a bad guy for making sure that you know
everything is all good and and you know, you know
I was, I was just trying to be a good guy.
Speaker 1 (07:58):
Yeah. I read all about it though, Yeah, yeah, yeah,
exactly like what I think.
Speaker 4 (08:05):
For future reference, if there's ever a girl out there
who wants to go out with this guy hydr I
D and if you asks for it, get up and go,
get up and go.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
