Adam on waiting by the phone? We got to know
how you met? About any dates that you've been on?
Tell us about those and then why you think maybe
you're being ghosted?

Speaker 3 (00:51):
Okay, yeah, I met Adam on Hinge. We matched, We
started chatting. It was going well, we'll like, same sense
of humors, same music taste. And then so after like
a week of talking, we went out for drinks and

(01:13):
I don't know, we had a really good time, and honestly, like,
after like a couple of drinks, got like a little touchy,
and I was like, come back to my place. And
I normally wouldn't say that on the radio, but I
feel like it's really important to the story.

Speaker 2 (01:29):
I normally don't do this. I normally I don't normally
do this kind of thing. Yeah I've heard that before, Okay,
but normally that's true. You normally don't do this kind
of thing. So it was back to your place and
then what.

Speaker 3 (01:41):
Okay, So everything was going great. We were in the cab,
it was a vibe, and then once we got there
everything changed.

Speaker 1 (01:53):
He like got really weird.

Speaker 4 (01:57):
We didn't even get to the front door, and he
really and told me that he has I'm feeling well
and had to leave like super abruptly.

Speaker 1 (02:06):
Uh huh.

Speaker 4 (02:06):
And I honestly like I thought like, okay, maybe he
drank too much. But then like when I checked on
him later to see if he was okay, he just
didn't answer.

Speaker 5 (02:16):
Oh.

Speaker 2 (02:17):
So he goes from this is this is like gonna
be a lot of fun. We're going back to my place,
We're gonna do whatever. It goes from that too, he's
sick has to leave, and now he's ghosting you.

Speaker 1 (02:27):
Yep, huh, how do we get there? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (02:30):
So let's yeah, that's interesting. Let's call Adam. We're gonna
play a song. We'll call Adam. You'll be on the
phone at the same time, and we're gonna try and
figure out what's going on, see kind of what happened there,
and hopefully we can straighten things out and then set
you guys up on another date that we pay for.

Speaker 1 (02:43):
Sound good?

Speaker 2 (02:44):
Okay? Yeah, hey, Shannon, yep, all right, let's call this guy, Adam.
You met on hinge, you went on a date. The
date went well, well enough that you invited him back
to your place. But between the time that you invited
him in the time you got to your front door,
the guy was like look visibly ill laugh. And then
now you have not heard from him, since he hasn't
responded to you. You've reached out to him to check

(03:05):
on him. Nothing, he's ghosting you. You want to know why? Yeah,
all right, let's call him right now. Good luck, Shannon. Hello,
Hi is this Adam? Yes, Adam, good morning. My name
is Fred. I'm calling from the Fred Show, the morning
radio show. I have to tell you that we are
on the radio right now and I would need your

(03:27):
permission to continue with the call. Is it okay? If
we should have for just a second, you can hang
up anytime.

Speaker 1 (03:32):
Okay, thank you.

Speaker 2 (03:33):
I know it's kind of an awkward thing, but we're
calling on behalf of a woman named Shannon, who I
guess you met on Hinge and you guys went on
a date recently.

Speaker 1 (03:41):
Do you remember her?

Speaker 2 (03:46):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (03:47):
It was this strange noise. Okay, Well.

Speaker 2 (03:52):
I gets you in the middle of something or hey,
we're calling because she reached out to us and said
that you guys had matched and that you went on
a date, and that the date went well except somewhere
between the end of the day and maybe going back
to her place you you were ill, and that you've
you've been missing an action and we had no problem
getting hold of you. So what's going on? Why are
you ignoring her?

Speaker 5 (04:13):
It is not going to be a master, Okay, it's.

Speaker 1 (04:17):
Why is it? Why is it not going to be
a man?

Speaker 2 (04:19):
You?

Speaker 1 (04:19):
Are you? Okay? Right now? Like what's going on?

Speaker 5 (04:23):
Okay?

Speaker 6 (04:25):
This is gonna sound odd, but I I hate those
inflatable lawn decorations, hate and and and for entire lawn
is comfort with them for Halloween.

Speaker 2 (04:44):
Okay, So you so you go to her house and
she's got like a pumpkin and I don't know whatever
goblin or whatever. Yeah, yeah, like a skeleton or something
that's all blown up in the front yards. So she's festive.
She she got into Halloween a little bit. And but
why did you start sweating and like and you sound

(05:07):
like things aren't okay right now?

Speaker 1 (05:09):
Like are you scared of it? Or what? What's the problem?

Speaker 5 (05:12):
I I I dislike them. I I guess you could
say I have more than just like I have a phobia.

Speaker 3 (05:23):
Okay, are you are you having like an episode right now?

Speaker 5 (05:27):
I mean?

Speaker 1 (05:27):
Did she have like a like a coffin and something
like it with it?

Speaker 5 (05:31):
Was it?

Speaker 2 (05:31):
Was it very realistic? Because the ones I've seen that
you buy it like home Depot, are not they're not
super realistic.

Speaker 5 (05:39):
She had everything everything pump and coffin.

Speaker 1 (05:43):
Are you.

Speaker 2 (05:47):
Did she have that DJ guy, you know, the skeleton
DJ that played music with the bluetooth, because that's kind
of I mean, that's that's.

Speaker 1 (05:53):
That's kind of cool, right, that's new for this season,
you know what I mean? I saw that when I
hear music makes me dance. Yeah, I like that right right.

Speaker 2 (05:59):
Hey, Shannon, And this dude's having a real problem right
now with your Halloween decorations, which is a new one.
We haven't heard that one before. I mean, he sounds
like I'm actually a little concerned, Adam, are you okay?

Speaker 5 (06:10):
Sure?

Speaker 2 (06:19):
My thoughts? I mean I'm confused, Like, I mean, how
realistic are these decorations?

Speaker 1 (06:26):
Like is it is changing.

Speaker 2 (06:28):
People around with a chainsaw in your yard? Like why
why he's so scarred by this and the noises he's making.

Speaker 1 (06:38):
I don't even really know what to say here.

Speaker 3 (06:41):
So you have I really don't even have that many
like I have like a witch, I have like a pumpkin.

Speaker 1 (06:48):
Oh my god. Okay, I know.

Speaker 2 (06:51):
If these noises are I'm not certain these noises are
associated with this call.

Speaker 4 (06:55):
I thought like a phobia of some sort.

Speaker 1 (07:00):
Yeah, And I don't know.

Speaker 2 (07:02):
I don't want to make fun of you, man, but
it's just like, I don't know, you sound uncomfortable, like
physically uncomfortable, and I don't want you to be that way.

Speaker 5 (07:08):
They're just they're discrusting, they're disgusting.

Speaker 1 (07:11):
Okay, okay, okay, okay.

Speaker 2 (07:15):
Like I've seen the light displays where it looks like
bugs or you know, all over you know what I mean.

Speaker 1 (07:19):
Like, but none of that I have.

Speaker 3 (07:21):
Like your you have, like your standard like cute, it's
like cute, it's like family friendly, it's and it's not
it's not.

Speaker 1 (07:30):
Oh my god. Okay, well this weird. Actually okay, look,
I actually do Yeah.

Speaker 2 (07:38):
I don't want to continue to make you feel however
you feel right now. It seems excessive, but I don't
want to make fun of someone's phobia. Som Look, you
must have a real time with the month of October,
like in general, are you able to go to like
a store?

Speaker 5 (07:57):
I hate you? No, I hate.

Speaker 6 (08:01):
Oh my god.

Speaker 2 (08:02):
I guess this all makes sense now. But look, okay,
so Adam is scared of Halloween and you're a halloween
person and so and he's making strange noises still, so
I'm just gonna end this call because I don't I
don't want him to be in any you know, and
he could have hung up at any time he wanted to.

Speaker 5 (08:17):
He could.

Speaker 2 (08:19):
Okay, we actually yeah, okay, yeah, I got yeah, I
don't know. I wish you the best, man, I'm sorry.
I hope you you know you work it all out,
and I'm sorry about the month of October for you
and Shannon is obviously not a match.

Speaker 5 (08:32):
Yeah,
