Speaker 1 (00:02):
Ever been left waiting by the phone. It's the Fred Show. Chelsea,
Good morning, welcome to the program. How are you okay?
Speaker 2 (00:10):
Good morning. Hi, I'm a huge fan of the show.
Speaker 1 (00:13):
Oh my god, Chelsea is ready to go. Well, thank you.
I'm a big fan of you, Chelsea. So what's going on?
Speaker 2 (00:18):
Oh my god?
Speaker 1 (00:19):
Which is dude, Charlie? We gotta know everything? How did
you meet? When I say it like that, Charlie, I
don't know what's going on with this guy? How did
you meet? Tell us about any dates you've been on,
and then where things are now? Okay?
Speaker 2 (00:28):
Well, I met Charlie on hinge and we matched and
flirted for a little bit before going, you know, on
our first date, and we went out for some drinks.
I personally thought we had a lot of fun. He's
really cute, we had a lot in common, and honestly,
he kissed me. So I'm pretty sure that means we're
going to go out again. Like that's usually a really
good sign.
Speaker 1 (00:50):
I'll give you that. I mean a kiss at the
end of the day. You don't normally kiss someone that
you're like, not in you know, that you think's disgusting
or something. Usually, so I thought that was a good sign.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
But like now he's ghosting me. So I'm a little confused.
I'm really bummed, and I just I don't know. I
don't know what to do. So in my head, I'm like,
you know what, my favorite morning show, they're gonna be
able to help me.
Speaker 3 (01:11):
I know it.
Speaker 1 (01:12):
Well, I mean, we're gonna help somebody here. I don't
sometimes it's sometimes it's you, and sometimes it's someone else
but the other person, but I don't know. Let's call
this guy, Charlie. I can't wait. I'm gonna ask a
bunch of questions. You'll be on the phone at the
same time. At some point you're welcome to jump in
on the call. And the hope is always is that
we can straighten this out and set you guys up
on another date that we pay for.
Speaker 2 (01:31):
Okay, that sounds great, Thank you so much.
Speaker 1 (01:33):
Let's see what happens next. Part two of Waiting by
the Phone after this song on The Fred Show. Good morning,
It's the Fred Show. Part two of Waiting by the Phone. Hey, Chelsea, Yeah,
all right, I wass call this guy Charlie, who you
met on the dating app Hinge. You went on a
date and you thought the date went great. You guys kissed.
At the end of the day, he kissed you, and
you thought that was a good sign, and so you
laughed this date, thinking I'm gonna hear from this guy again.
(01:56):
We're gonna reconnect or connect again and go on another date,
and this is all good. I hope, So, I hope
it is. I just don't know what happened right right, Well,
you thought it was gonna be all good. But let's see.
Let's call this guy now and and good luck.
Speaker 2 (02:09):
Thank you so much. O.
Speaker 1 (02:19):
Hi is this Charlie? Yeah, Hi Charlie. My name is Fred.
I'm calling from the Fred's Show, the Morning radio Show,
the Whole Cruise.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
Here.
Speaker 1 (02:27):
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 which that for just a second,
would you mind? Yeah? Man's fine, what's up? Well? Thank you,
thank you. Man. We're calling on behalf of a woman
who says that she met you on on Hinge, the
dating app. Her name is Chelsea. Do you remember Chelsea? Wow? Yeah,
I'm not going to be talking about that though. Okay, well,
(02:51):
I know you just said you're not gonna talk about it,
But why why can't we talk about it?
Speaker 3 (02:56):
I know it's you know, we're on the radio and stuff.
I just don't feel comfortable talking about that situation. It's
just it's not appropriate, to be honest.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
Well, I don't want you to feel uncomfortable, and you're
welcome to hang up at any time, but I will
give you context. She reached out to us and said
that she had met you on the dating app and
that she felt like that the date that you went
on went really well and she's disappointed that she hasn't
heard from you since the date. So it would be
helpful if you could tell us why, and then we'll
tell her and then you know, I guess everyone can
(03:28):
move on.
Speaker 3 (03:29):
Okay. So I know we're on the radio, so I'll
try to keep something PG that that is.
Speaker 1 (03:37):
Very much not PGH. Okay.
Speaker 3 (03:41):
So I'm not sure how to or I'm not sure
how much you know. But you know, we were on
the date and she was fine, you know, Chelsea was great.
But after the date, we went to her place and
you know, we did some pretty heavy making out and
then all of a sudden, she turned into a different
person out of nowhere. He asked me to hit her
(04:06):
in the face, and I didn't know how to handle that,
like he wanted me to punch her or slap her
or do something to her physical appearance on her face.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
She said she did. She did, Yeah, she did. She
didn't get around and telling us about the whatever, the
physical assault that she's asking for the assault, right, So okay,
so hmm, yeah, because it is a little early, so
some people like it a little more aggressively than others,
(04:39):
and that can be awkward, especially because it's hard to
know when you first meet someone kind of where the
limit is and and maybe you're not into that at all.
You know, it doesn't sound like that was something that
you'd want to do anyway, right, No, And I.
Speaker 3 (04:51):
Said no, this, let's be clear.
Speaker 1 (04:52):
I said, no, I'm not doing that.
Speaker 3 (04:54):
I don't feel comfortable. I wasn't raised like that, and anyway,
what kind of person wants that, you know. I was
just completely turned off by the entire idea of that.
And I don't know what was she trying to trap
me or something or try to get me arrested. I
just didn't know what her angle was, So I just.
Speaker 1 (05:11):
It was I forgot to mention that Chelsea aka Mike
Tyson is here or I guess you were going to
be Mike Tyson.
Speaker 2 (05:18):
You basically I can't believe you just gave out all
of my business on the internet, like on the radio,
like I just.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
Like, hold Mike Tyson. You asked us to make this call,
and you wanted to know what was going on Chelsea,
and he told us you had to.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
Know why he wasn't calling me back. But I didn't
accept him to put all my business out on the radio.
Speaker 1 (05:41):
That's crazy. But you wanted to know why he's not calling.
That's why he's not calling. You were present for this,
you asked for it. I mean you had to know
it was a possibility that was going to come up.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
No, I didn't think it was that big of a deal.
Like that doesn't make any sense.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
So is this what is this the way he's telling
the story? Is this? Is it accurate? Like you wanted?
I don't know, little roughness.
Speaker 2 (06:00):
Everyone likes different stuff, like it's normal like to call
me out like I'm crazy for that. It doesn't make
any sense. Like everyone has things they like. I didn't say,
oh he did this or wanted it. I didn't, you know,
go after what he likes. So yeah, he could just
keep his mouth shut and it's not like a big deal.
He could have talked to me about it instead of
blasting it all over the radio.
Speaker 1 (06:22):
Now, I would agree you could talk to you about it.
But you you cannot be mad that this guy just
told that story because you asked us to call him
and get the story, so like, you can't be upset
about that.
Speaker 2 (06:32):
But how would I have known that that was the
problem if he didn't tell me, like you could have
told me, not the radio. You would have said, oh,
I'll tell her. I don't need to tell the radio.
Speaker 1 (06:41):
It's not Well, he kind of did try that and
then I pried it out of it. But you know,
I think if you're going around asking people to punch
you in the face, like I think, that's probably something
that's going to make some people uncomfortable.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
Listen, that's taken way out of line. That is not
what I said.
Speaker 1 (06:53):
Okay, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (06:53):
That is not what I said.
Speaker 1 (06:54):
As much as I would like to know what you said,
I don't know that this is the time of the place.
So let's just say that you like a little bit
differently than he likes it. You have different preferences in
that regard. It's a little bit. Okay, well, but I
would ask this is not his fault to get the
(07:15):
information for you, and I did. Okay, So I've.
Speaker 2 (07:19):
Never heard of a man complaining about the way a
woman makes out with him ever in my life. Like,
I've never heard that, And this is like a little ridiculous.
Speaker 1 (07:28):
I don't know. You know, you can get a little sloppy,
you can get a little spitty, you can get a
little toothy. Yeah, there are lots of ways I could
complain about the way that people can listen, she's all upset,
but like I didn't want to know this, Like I
was perfectly fine not knowing that she likes to be punched.
I was my own business, tricking my coffee until you called.
Speaker 2 (07:52):
I did not ask to be punched. Okay, that's like
really dramatic.
Speaker 1 (07:56):
Okay, you know, Tarlie, you've been awfully quiet. Here is it?
Are you fearful? Are you scared them? Fearful? Percent? I'm fearful.
I don't know what this woman really wants.
Speaker 3 (08:04):
And there's no way I'm going to hit a woman.
But what's what's the end game? Like, you know, I
hit a woman in the faith and then all of
a sudden, who knows she's got cameras in her house and.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
Now going to jail?
Speaker 2 (08:15):
My god, not Wow, you clearly have like very little
experience with women, wow.
Speaker 1 (08:22):
Or women that have a particular kind of preference. I
can see how this would make some men uncomfortable because
I don't know. I feel like beginning, yeah, like it's
something I don't know. You, yeah, go to jail.
Speaker 2 (08:39):
I need to come on.
Speaker 1 (08:41):
He's like third or fourth date. Now come on, now,
you know these things are different now I think I
don't know what. I think. This is a first date activity.
I feel like you got to get to know somebody
and understand, Like what's your favorite color? I want to
know that first. Yeah, yeah, yeah, what's Charlie's favorite color? Chelsea?
Do you know? Because no, she's too busy. I don't
(09:01):
care anymore. I don't care, all right. I look, I'm
not sure Charlie. I understand that this made you uncomfortable. Chelsea.
I'm sorry that you feel exposed, But you asked us
to find out why he was uncomfortable. He told us,
(09:22):
and now we know. I'll ask the question. It's rhetorical,
but Charlie, would you like to go out with Chelsea again?
We'll pay for the boxing lessons. That's a hard no
for me. No, thanks, Okay for me too, Oh so
she okay, so it's a no for her.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
I wouldn't hit you in the.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
So weird. This is so weird. Just you know what
I got up this morning. I didn't I didn't foresee
this happened. This, this one all happening. But anyway, Chelsea,
good luck to you. Charlie, good luck to you as well.
Thanks for answering.
