Speaker 1 (00:09):
All right? What's going on with this woman? Mina?

Speaker 3 (00:12):
Tell us how you met? About any dates that you've
been on, and then why you think you're being ghosted?

Speaker 2 (00:16):
Yeah, yeah, I'm doing good.

Speaker 4 (00:18):
Other than that, I should say.

Speaker 3 (00:19):
So that is always funny that people go, yeah, like
I'm so good. It's like you're good, but you're obviously
very distraught about it. No, it's true that is true.
Like oftentimes when I'm very bad, I still say, nobody
wants to hear your Honestly, we get that around here. Okay,
so Mina is ghosting? You tell us though about like

(00:43):
we need to know kind of everything that happened before them.

Speaker 4 (00:45):
All right, So I met me through Bumble Okay, So yeah,
I saw her on Bumble and asked to grab some
dinner and a few drinks. You know, date was really
ten and she just kind of stopped answering me though.

Speaker 1 (01:09):
Okay.

Speaker 3 (01:10):
So yeah, so you chatted on the app, which is
annoying how it goes you match, You chatted, you agreed
to go on this date, and you thought the date
went well.

Speaker 4 (01:19):
Yeah, I mean I thought it went really well.

Speaker 1 (01:22):
We were having a good time, okay.

Speaker 4 (01:25):
I mean, you know, she seemed into me. I could
not really tell you why things went south or what happened,
but you know, she seemed into me definitely, like you
know someone I saw him Bumble and I was like, wow,
she looks great.

Speaker 2 (01:46):
And then we, you.

Speaker 4 (01:47):
Know, had the date, and I wanted to have more dates,
but she's just like, I don't know, it's not not
into it for some reason.

Speaker 1 (01:55):
Yeah, let's call her right now. Good luck, man. Hello, Hi,
is this Mina. It is Mina. Hi, good morning. My
name is Fred.

Speaker 3 (02:08):
I'm calling for the Fred Show, the morning radio show,
and I have to tell you that we are on
the radio right now and I wouldn't need your permission
to continue with the call.

Speaker 1 (02:16):
Is Is that cool? If we talk for a second
on the air, you can hang up anytime. Okay.

Speaker 3 (02:22):
I know it's a little bit weird, but I'm not
sure if you've heard this before. He's called waiting by
the phone, and we're calling on behalf of a guy
named Andy who reached out to us and says that
he met you on Bumble and you guys went on
a date recently that he was really excited about. Thought
it went well, but he says he hasn't been able
to get ahold of you since then. So what's going on?

Speaker 2 (02:38):
Ah? Okay, did Andy tell you that he works at
a funeral home?

Speaker 3 (02:44):
No, he didn't share that he worked at a funeral home?
What does that have to do with not wanting to
go out with him again?

Speaker 2 (02:49):
Like?

Speaker 3 (02:49):
Did he take you over there or something? Did you
did you take a little sewer? Did you show up
in a hearse? I think we've had that one before.

Speaker 1 (02:54):
Yeah, that's wild.

Speaker 2 (02:57):
No, not that specifically, but I mean I'm completely fun
of the he worked at a funeral home. You know,
we all got to nickel itting somehow, that's not the issue.
And he actually put it on a dating robile, so
it's not like I was thrown for a lucid that responct.
But what I wasn't really okay with was that he
was showing me pictures of.

Speaker 1 (03:17):
Dead body.

Speaker 2 (03:19):
Working on yeah, that day at work, and so you know,
we were eating, which was like and also like you know, like,
oh I don't I didn't. Did these people get permissions
from their families?

Speaker 1 (03:33):
Gross?

Speaker 2 (03:34):
Yeah, the relatives like that's anyway.

Speaker 5 (03:37):
So the whole thing that I don't know, if you
were me, you were sitting and eating, you know, dinner,
and having a photo of somebody else's dead body that
you didn't really want to see.

Speaker 2 (03:47):
Shown to you, like, I don't know, maybe not like
the most romantic situation.

Speaker 3 (03:51):
Right, Okay, so you knew what he did and you
were okay with it, but you didn't necessarily need to
see examples of his work. Literally, no, huhring Andy, And
I forgot to mention that Andy is here?

Speaker 1 (04:01):
Andy, what are you doing? Is there?

Speaker 2 (04:03):
No?

Speaker 1 (04:03):
I'm sorry, I'm very forgetful. Is there no privacy?

Speaker 3 (04:06):
But I know they're dead, but they have families and
stuff like are you allowed to do that?

Speaker 6 (04:11):
I mean, yeah, they have families, But I mean it's
pretty standard practice. I mean, if if I were a
chef or a bartender that was proud of his work
and I showed you pictures of my drinks or the
food that I made, then you know you might take.

Speaker 1 (04:25):
You would maybe be impressed.

Speaker 4 (04:27):
But I'm not just showing you the makeup that I did.

Speaker 1 (04:29):
Very strange.

Speaker 4 (04:31):
Good for their families for their viewings.

Speaker 1 (04:34):
Show it to their families, not to some random date.

Speaker 5 (04:37):
Bro, Like, if you're going to be like, oh, yeah,
here's the makeup I did on whoever?

Speaker 1 (04:42):
Does this look okay?

Speaker 4 (04:43):
What?

Speaker 3 (04:44):
Like?

Speaker 1 (04:44):
Why do you have a camera roll full of dead
people in your phone? Y?

Speaker 3 (04:48):
Just like if you're a professional makeup artist, you have
a Yeah, if you're an in me way and you.

Speaker 1 (04:53):
Show people in your books or whatever, is that the
way I do?

Speaker 6 (04:56):
Proud of what I do?

Speaker 4 (04:57):
I mean, I'm proud of the work I do. I
thought that she would find it interesting.

Speaker 1 (05:01):
That's my job.

Speaker 3 (05:02):
Well, you're allowed to be proud of your job, and
there's nothing to be ashamed of, of course. But at
the same time, not everybody wants to look at dead bodies.
I mean, there are all kinds of jobs out there
that people have and people have relationships, but they don't
necessarily bring it home. I mean, you got to know
that that's kind of a controversial topic for people, Like
some people aren't comfortable with that.

Speaker 1 (05:21):
But I do such a good job. They look alive.

Speaker 6 (05:23):
Like I got photos where I'm looking like it's weaken
at Bernie's.

Speaker 3 (05:26):
You know, no, you post them for the photos. You
post them for the photos. Okay, it's a sick man, Yeah,
this is actually a little bit twisted and me and
I so much the vibe that you were getting like
this is a.

Speaker 2 (05:38):
Little Yeah, I'm glad I'm being like confirmed in my
feelings about this, because the more we're talking about the
more I'm like, you know, there's like a period of
time I'm like, am I being irrational?

Speaker 5 (05:48):
Am I being conditional about it? Am I overreacting?

Speaker 4 (05:51):
No?

Speaker 5 (05:52):
And then frankly speaking.

Speaker 2 (05:53):
It's like listen, you can't talk about it like this
and like no, thank you, And frankly, it's like at.

Speaker 5 (05:59):
This point it feels like it's such a point of pride,
which is like good on him, not for me, you know,
different shows, folks, But like I don't feel like at
any point when we ever have but it feels like
dead bodies would always be around and I don't really
need to be like in a relationship with somebody who
like won't you can't like wash dead bodies off their
hands and their phones.

Speaker 2 (06:20):
And then if I wanted to be like.

Speaker 5 (06:21):
Hey, bade show show a picture of us from Yosemite,
it's like you have a dead body.

Speaker 1 (06:27):
Dead bodies can't.

Speaker 4 (06:28):
Yeah, I'm an artist, I'm doing I'm making art over here,
you guys should come see it, like you guys should
come on.

Speaker 1 (06:37):
I'm a beach ass to this phone.

Speaker 6 (06:40):
Weird.

Speaker 4 (06:41):
It's not like I'm sleeping with them.

Speaker 3 (06:43):
Okay, now, I understand why say that proud of the
makeup work that you're doing on on these people.

Speaker 1 (06:51):
But let the family be the judge of that. You
know what I'm saying, Like, do a nice job.

Speaker 3 (06:56):
That's wonderful that you do a nice service for people
they can remember their loved one. But it's is like
taking pictures and showing it to other people. One I
really don't know if that's ethical, and two you're assuming
everybody wants to see it, and unfortunately not everybody wants
to see it, so h And I don't know, you're
a little bit lax about this, which also kind of
creeps me out a little bit.

Speaker 1 (07:14):
Andy, to be honest with.

Speaker 4 (07:15):
You, I mean, it's w a pride for me. It's
what I've been doing for a long time.

Speaker 1 (07:21):
It's it's my art.

Speaker 4 (07:23):
I don't see anything wrong.

Speaker 3 (07:25):
I think you should go to like one of those conventions,
you know. I think they probably got to have a
mortician convention, right people who do this, and maybe you'll
meet somebody who also does it and y'all can like
compare notes and like, you know, do your thing.

Speaker 1 (07:36):
I think he should go to jail.

Speaker 3 (07:38):
Well yeah, I do kind of wonder if what you're
doing is legal. But anyway, I mean it's rhetorical, but
do you want to go out with him again? And
we'll pay for it?

Speaker 2 (07:48):
I mean I think maybe you could use that money
and go out with him instead.

Speaker 1 (07:51):
I mean, like, we don't want to know.

Speaker 2 (07:53):
I don't want to do it.

Speaker 3 (07:54):
You don't know moving you know, we've been moving headstones around.
It's this weird, though, I think it's Andy.

Speaker 4 (08:01):
Look, keep my business card on you guys at all time.

Speaker 3 (08:05):
Day.

Speaker 1 (08:05):
I wouldn't be the one to call you. M yeah,
on your wallet.

Speaker 6 (08:10):
They can call me and I'm going to make you
look good so.

Speaker 3 (08:15):
You can take pictures of me and show them to
your dates. Like, no, thank you anyway. It's one thing
to be passionate about your job and good at it
and proud of it. That's fine whatever you do, but
it's another thing to insist that other people look at it.

Speaker 1 (08:29):
And this is a lot of layers here. This is wild. Yeah,
this is crazy.

Speaker 3 (08:33):
I mean, thank you for your time, Andy, Im I
might even say good luck.

Speaker 1 (08:37):
I'm just gonna say Andy, all right,
