Speaker 1 (00:00):
I've never been left waiting by the phone. It's the
Fred Show, Honor, good morning, Welcome to the program.

Speaker 2 (00:07):
How are you?

Speaker 3 (00:08):
I'm okay, how are you guys? Good morning?

Speaker 2 (00:10):
All right.

Speaker 1 (00:11):
We're trying to figure out what's going on with this
woman Zoe. We got to know everything though, How did
you meet? Tell us about any date you've been on,
and then where things are now?

Speaker 2 (00:19):
Yeah, so we met at a bar.

Speaker 3 (00:22):
She let me buy her a couple of drinks that night,
and she even gave me your number. The next day,
I asked if she wanted to go to dinner. She
said yes, but once we got to the restaurant, she
kind of it kind of changed all of a sudden,
and she was like, oh, I got to be up early,
so I can't really stay long. And then, you know,

(00:44):
we kind of had just an appetizer, one drink and
we left.

Speaker 2 (00:49):
So, you know, it didn't.

Speaker 3 (00:51):
Seem too weird, but I believed it until you know,
she kind of was a little short after, you know,
when we would text, and then she just stopped responding
all together.

Speaker 2 (01:04):
So I'm kind of like, what happened? Okay?

Speaker 1 (01:06):
All right, Well, this is one of those rare occasions
where you guys met in the wild. So because you know,
things can go wrong on the dating apps. You know,
we've heard it a it's a tale so old as time, Pauline.
And we've heard some people, you know, they meet in
person and they're not the person they said they were.
They don't look the same, or you know, they act
weird or whatever. But you met in person and you
pursued her in that way, and then so so going

(01:28):
to dinner for the second date, if you want to
call it that her first actual date. I mean, this
shouldn't have been much of a surprise to her because
you were a known quantity. She knows what she agreed
to because she met you. Yeah, I mean when we had.

Speaker 3 (01:39):
A good conversation that first night, you know, over a
few drinks and probably three hours worth of just talking.

Speaker 1 (01:45):
Yeah, that's strange them. So you know, it's not as
though she learned something. I guess she could have learned something,
but it's not as though when she met you she
was instantly not attracted to you for some reason or
whatever else, because again, she knew. But let's let's call
this woman Zoe. You're gonna be on the phone Connor
at the same time, We're gonna ask these questions on
your rehof and the hope is that she's been busy

(02:05):
or something's been going on, and we can straighten this
out and set you guys up on sex third day,
whatever you wanna call it, and.

Speaker 2 (02:12):
We'll pay for this, all right.

Speaker 1 (02:14):
Trust me, you've got to hear part two of waiting
by the phote after Lola Young messy back in two
minutes on the Fred Show.

Make us a pre set. Hey, Connor, all right, welcome back.
Let's call Zoe. You guys met out at a bar.
You approached her, you guys chatted for a while, asked
her out, you go on a date. You felt like
she was kind of rushed on the date for some reason,
and then you haven't heard from her since and you

(02:42):
want to know why. Yeah, okay, well let's call her now.
Good luck Connor. Hello, Hi is this Zoey? Hey Zoe,
good morning. My name is Fred. I'm calling from the
Fred Show, the Morning Show, and I have to tell
you that we are on the radio right now and

(03:02):
I would need you our permission to continue with the call.

Speaker 2 (03:04):
He said, okay, if we chat for a second. Yeah,
what what did I win by?

Speaker 1 (03:09):
Look at that? Look at the excitement. You know, let
me see if you're excited in about thirty seconds. But
maybe you may have won something. We'll see here. But
we're calling on behalf of a guy who reached out
to us. His name is Connor. Do you remember meeting
Connor at a bar and and you guys went out.

Speaker 2 (03:23):
I hope you remember that. I remember you do, all right?

Speaker 1 (03:28):
Well, he reached out to us, and he had a
lot of nice things to say about you, that he
liked you and was excited to meet you, and said
he approached you and a bar, asked you out, got
your number, the whole thing, you guys did go out.
He admits that the date seemed a little rushed and
that he can't get a hold of you since then.

Speaker 2 (03:43):
So can you tell us what happened?

Speaker 1 (03:45):
Because he's, you know, he feels like he's being ghosted
and smugging him.

Speaker 4 (03:52):
I I mean, yeah, I guess I'll just like start
from the beginning.

Speaker 1 (03:58):
I mean, we don't we know how you met, and
we know that you went on a date, but yeah,
what happened on the date? I mean what it sounds
like there's a story here that we don't know, which
is usually the case.

Speaker 4 (04:06):
Okay, I mean honestly, he offered to pick me up,
and like, since I already met him in person, I
was like, okay, which normally you know you wouldn't do that, right,
But when I first get into his car, he's brushing
his teeth with a water about all, which I was like, okay,
that's like weird, but.

Speaker 2 (04:22):
I mean that's a weird thing to do.

Speaker 1 (04:23):
You pick somebody up when you're actively brushing your teeth
in the car.

Speaker 2 (04:26):
At least he wanted to.

Speaker 1 (04:28):
He was concerned about his dental hygiene, so that I mean,
I might do that before I arrived, but okay, sure.

Speaker 4 (04:34):
Right, And so you're like, okay, I guess, like I
appreciate that you care about your breath. But he got
some water on his shirt and he was like, oh no,
I'm going to just grab a fresh shirt in my trunk.
And when I like turned around, I realized, like the
backseat is packed to the brim with stuff, and I

(04:55):
was like, oh, I'm pretty sure he's living out of
his car. Oh oh yeah, And like I'm already with him,
I'm in his car. I'm kind of trapped and I
feel like I have to go on the date. But
immediately I'm like I have to just like plan make it,
like like I'm so sorry that you know this is
happening to him, but like I just that's not.

Speaker 1 (05:19):
I can't well, it's not it's that's the case. He's
not ashamed of it because he picked you up. I mean,
he could have hidden it. I guess did he pay
for the drinks when you guys went out the first time?

Speaker 2 (05:27):
He did?

Speaker 4 (05:27):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (05:28):
And then I guess you guys got through a drink
or two or whatever on this day. Did you did
he pay for those? He did?

Speaker 2 (05:33):
So he's not broke. I guess. I mean let me.

Speaker 1 (05:35):
I forgot to mention. I'm so forgetful. Connor is here,
So Connor, maybe you can tell us. Are you living
in your car? You know what's going on with that?

Speaker 3 (05:45):
I mean, I wouldn't say living in my car. I
do have a lot of right stuff in my car.
I'm kind of in between places right now. But it's
not like she has to worry about that.

Speaker 1 (05:58):
I mean, so you are living in your car because
he's I wouldn't say that, but you're in between, so
you don't have a place, so you are. I mean
it's everything, okay, yeah, I mean.

Speaker 3 (06:05):
It's just rent is high right now and I'm kind
of juggling from one friend's house to another. I don't
sleep in my car or outside anywhere. I do have,
you know, places to a night. It's just most of
my stuff is in my car.

Speaker 1 (06:20):
And you knew that she was going to see this,
I mean because you offered to pick her up. So
I guess this isn't something that you see as a concern.

Speaker 3 (06:27):
Well, I mean I don't think it's I'm like in
the process of getting a place. Background checks and stuff
like that have to happen, and it takes a minute.

Speaker 2 (06:37):
Okay, But it's not like I'm messy.

Speaker 3 (06:39):
It's not like my car is full of trash and stuff.
It's just I have some of my clothes and stuff
in there.

Speaker 1 (06:45):
I see. Now, do you think do you think that's
a good time to be dating? I mean, I just
I wonder because what was going to happen if things
went really well? I mean, do you go back to
her place? Do you kind of move some of your
stuff in I mean, I'm just asking here. I'm not
a judging and making fun of you. I just kind
of wonder, like, what was the endgame.

Speaker 3 (07:03):
I was gonna if I went there, I probably would
have recommended us going to her place. I would have
said my roommate.

Speaker 2 (07:11):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (07:12):
I would have made something up, but I usually don't
end up doing that kind of stuff. On the first date.

Speaker 1 (07:17):
I say, okay, kick, you're not in your head. You're
making noises.

Speaker 2 (07:21):
What the deity today?

Speaker 5 (07:24):
When you are on somebody else's couch. It just blows
my mind, Like I don't understand people who are in
between places. But you got money to go on a date. No,
you need to You need to be settled in a
house and a home with an address. You're a hobo
sexual that's what they called.

Speaker 2 (07:42):
That's when you need someone for their place.

Speaker 5 (07:44):
And that's not try he tried to go back to
her house, comes in.

Speaker 2 (07:50):
With him and the former if you don't have your
own house, that is an excellent point. This is exactly
what Jason.

Speaker 1 (08:04):
Did, except it wasn't It wasn't a slow transition.

Speaker 2 (08:09):
Jason went on one date and then he just moved in.
You don't ask that's the problem. You don't have to
go with him.

Speaker 1 (08:17):
Let me ask you this fairness, In all fairness, is
there any part of you that toping you hit it
off so well with someone that you can stay there
regularly and by yourself some time.

Speaker 2 (08:26):
Is that is that part of your game?

Speaker 1 (08:28):
No?

Speaker 2 (08:28):
Absolutely not.

Speaker 3 (08:29):
First of all, I was at a bar and like
we made eyes from across the bar.

Speaker 2 (08:33):
It's not like we met.

Speaker 3 (08:34):
On hms like I'm trying to date.

Speaker 2 (08:36):
Drinks the bars bro exactly. That's it. That could be
a deposit on an right.

Speaker 3 (08:42):
It's not that I'm homeless and I don't have money.

Speaker 2 (08:44):
I have money, I have a job.

Speaker 3 (08:46):
I'm just in between plays.

Speaker 1 (08:48):
Okay, I never had hold on a second. I want
to ask Zoe though, Joey, you've been very quiet on it.
So the guy, this is his story. He's between places.
He's not ashamed of it. He says he has money,
he has a job, he's going to have a place soon.

(09:08):
He says, you did like him enough to, you know,
talk to him for a couple of hours and then
go on a date with him.

Speaker 2 (09:14):
So let's say that he's very cool.

Speaker 1 (09:15):
I'm just gonna give him the benefit of the douk
kiki and he's very close to, you know, settling down
somewhere and establishing a residence of some kind. So what
do you think give him another shot.

Speaker 4 (09:25):
I'm going to respectfully decline.

Speaker 1 (09:30):
I don't know this guy's having a bit of a
time interview because you call me a homosexual.

Speaker 6 (09:42):
Priority. You need an address? Where's your mail.

Speaker 3 (09:47):
For your advice?

Speaker 5 (09:47):
Like?

Speaker 2 (09:48):
Who are you?

Speaker 6 (09:51):
I got an address, but it's still with the gas
in that baby.

Speaker 3 (10:08):
I have money, Like, you're so insensitive and like no sympathy,
no empathy.

Speaker 5 (10:13):
But let me say you're not because you mind drinks.

Speaker 2 (10:17):
You sound great, You sounds great. I'm here.

Speaker 3 (10:20):
Everybody is waiting in line to get into your your
apartment and try and be with you.

Speaker 5 (10:26):
I got one to That's how I know how to
spot the money.

Speaker 3 (10:33):
I wish I would have.

Speaker 2 (10:34):
I'm gonna listening. Let's not do that.

Speaker 5 (10:39):
I trust he's listening because he's driving around all day.

Speaker 2 (10:44):
Oh my god, you're a terrible person. You have the
place to say, but you're a terrible person. I love
the right now.

Speaker 1 (10:55):
I think you deserve it through period.

Speaker 6 (11:04):
My god, make sure you got your seat. Shouldn't upset that.

Speaker 2 (11:16):
Connor Man I'm on your side. Okay, sorry, sorry, Kiky.

Speaker 3 (11:20):
I notice you're on the radio or not on TV.

Speaker 5 (11:24):
You've got a check the resume, but then on TV
Plata the last time you watch CVVA.

Speaker 2 (11:38):
No, no, no, my god, he is ONWN home temporarily.

Speaker 1 (11:45):
Honestly, the roski is so entertaining. I kind of want
to leave and let it keep going for a while.

Speaker 2 (11:50):
Connor, look back and forth.

Speaker 1 (11:52):
My only tim Connor, is it may not be putting
your best foot forward.

Speaker 2 (11:56):
That's all I'm saying.

Speaker 1 (11:57):
I'm not judging you, know when what Kiki is, but
no one else is judging you.

Speaker 2 (12:02):
No, I'm not. I'm one.

Speaker 1 (12:06):
I'm supporting you. I'm supporting you. I'm saying I'm team you.
And this I just I think maybe you're not putting
yourself in the best position for success when you're not established.
I think that women, men, whomever. I think people in
a partner like to see a little bit of stability.
And I think that's what Zoe is saying. She was
very respectful. The only person here's disrespectful is mckitha.

Speaker 3 (12:31):
Like I said, I really likes always great okay, and
her position.

Speaker 2 (12:36):
So how about this?

Speaker 5 (12:37):
Yeah, I want to get your priorities in order for you.
That's all. I want you to have a home.

Speaker 2 (12:46):
That's it. In the process.

Speaker 1 (12:49):
There you go like he's done, bro, and that's okay. Look,
here's my advice to you, Connor. Maybe maybe when you
get everything settled, I don't know, try Zoe again and
maybe she'll be available. And Zoe, are you open to that?

(13:10):
Once he gets his you know, stuff in order here,
maybe he calls you. Maybe Okay, No, she's.

Speaker 2 (13:16):
Not okay, she's not like what you what are you
doing to me? Man? All right? Not open to that.

Speaker 1 (13:21):
Hey, it's all good, Connor. You know, I wish you
the best. She's not gonna be interested, but somebody will.
Everything's gonna be fine. Good luck to you. And please
keep the car radio on us all the time we
need it.

Speaker 3 (13:33):
But I'll try not to look for somebody so superficial.

Speaker 1 (13:36):
Oh good lord, Okay, Man, all right, best of luck
to both of you.

Are You A Charlotte?

Are You A Charlotte?

In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
