Speaker 1 (00:00):
This is totally not connected to anything, but maybe somebody
were talking about off the air. But do you ever
do you ever have somebody like give you information, like
tell you something about them, and I'm not saying that
you use it against them, like as a weapon, but
then that information sort of shapes your viewpoint about a

(00:20):
person and then they get mad at you because you
know the thing that they told you. Does that make sense?
Like ultimately you wind up being the a hole because
you end up like like I think we talked about
it on the air. Recently, I had a situation where
somebody described a situation to me. I described it back
to them, and I wasn't being nice, but I basically
reiterated what they had just said to me. But I

(00:43):
was the a hole. I was the one who did
the bad thing. And I'm like, but wait a minute,
I just repeated what you just said to me so
you could hear it and understand my point of view.
And then it was like, I can't believe you just
said that to me. I'm like, you're the one doing it.
Does that ever happened to you? Though? I give you
And it's one thing I feel like you give if

(01:04):
you vent to a friend or you share something intimate
and then they use it against you. That's that's not cool.
But I'm talking about like you're having a conversation and
someone says, well I did this or whatever, and like
you did what you know? And then like you almost
like why am I mean because I just said to
you the thing that you just said to me.

Speaker 2 (01:22):
Yeah, I mean you're responsible for what you share. So
if you share a wild story and someone judges you
based on that story, like it's kind of on you, like,
don't share it, I guess right, you know, especially in
the setting that we were talking about off air, like yeah,
it's a little odd.

Speaker 1 (01:35):
Well that's kind of what our tangent, if we do
a Tangent Today, is going to be about. Well, it's
two things. I've got. I got a wild story. I
got a wild story. But then I also I think
that a tangent and this little radio program are getting me.
They continue to get me in big trouble and for
no doing of my own.

Speaker 2 (01:49):
I'm excited I might join the Tangent Today.

Speaker 1 (01:52):
Story you should attend I might have You should attend
on the iHeartRadio if you can listen to us live
in the morning you can listen to us anytime. Search
for the Freend Show. You could listen the Tangent or
Off or Uncentered podcast. But yeah, I mean, look, I
I've known for twenty I've done this Jeuf for twenty years.
Over twenty years. I get that we say things on
the radio on the podcast and then people hear it

(02:13):
and internalize it, and people in our in our personal
lives might hear things and go oh. But the problem
for me is if you know me personally, then why
are you holding crazy stuff I say on the radio.
I mean, I'm not out here like saying you know, horrible,
terrible things. I mean, I'm talking about my life. You know.
It's not like I'm It's not like I'm I'm preaching

(02:33):
some political or zenophobo baker. If I say something like
hateful or something, then you should hate me for that,
but I hope I never do. But like if I
if I tell a story and you know me personally
and then you get mad at me with the story
I told on the radio, It's like, what, like, what
are you doing? That's my job is when I got
it is, you know, And by the way, you can't

(02:54):
let the truth get in the way of a good story. Sometimes,
and I'm not saying I'm a liar, you know, I
tell the truth. But sometimes sometimes we gotta you know, yeah,
we gotta juge it up a little bit just for
a presentation. Or sometimes I gotta dig a story out
of the treasure trove. You know, I got a vault
full of stories. I only tell the same thirteen but
every now and again, I got to pull out a

(03:15):
new one. Make it sound like it happened last night.
I know why because I was watching succession last night.
I was watching basketball last night. I wasn't doing a
damn thing. Sometimes I gotta make up a story because
it's like I can't say that every day. I can't
come in and be like, hey, guess what, guys, I
didn't do a damn thing again last night. Here's here's
the weekend. Good morning, welcome to the show.

Speaker 2 (03:37):
Yeah you're putting on a production.

Speaker 1 (03:40):
Yeah, here we go. What is this? Whoa? What is
this thing? Here's the text. I dated a guy who
later told me he killed someone. Oh, and then he
was upset that I couldn't deal with him. Well that's
a little different. I'm certainly not saying anything like that,
but I'll tell some story on the podcast and then
like somebody I'm talking to will be like, my friend said,

(04:00):
you said this, and then or people will just disappear,
and I know it's because of something I said on
the radio. It's like, if you know me and we've
hung out, you know, extensively, and we've maybe seen each
other without clothes on and things like that, I think
I deserve the benefit of the doubt when it comes
to you know, something that you heard on the radio, Like,
can't you at least tell me what you heard and

(04:20):
I can tell you if it's true, because I won't lie.
I'll tell you if it's true. I'll tell you if
I meant it. But it happens all the time, these
things I feel like, believe it or not. People think, oh,
you get a cool job, you must get dots of chicks. No,
I probably get fewer chicks because of this. Honestly, I
probably get fewer chicks because of this job because I
can't keep my stupid mouth shut. But I also don't

(04:41):
do it to their detriment. If you listen to this,
because I've heard people say, oh, he only dates for
content that's not true. When is the last time I
outed somebody in a way that would ever be distinguishable.
And most of the time when I tell stories, it's
about me being the dumb ass. The stories are usually
jokes on me. The story is rarely jokes on them.
Times like Ashley Heel girls heels, But I didn't do

(05:05):
Ashy heel girl dirty like that that. The listeners were
taking pictures over heels and posting them on the internet.
I didn't do that. Well.

Speaker 2 (05:10):
They were sending them to Rufio and I and I
just couldn't get They were like, he's on a date.
I'm like, I don't care about that. Just get this
girl some lotion.

Speaker 1 (05:17):
Yeah, you guys were really worried about that. And I hadn't.
I hadn't looked at her feet like that. I hadn't
gotten that angle. So yeah, but yeah, yeah, Kiki, you
missed that. And when on a date, we're on an
outdoor patio and pictures were just flowing in to our
d ms unbannounced to me with pictures of this woman's
feet and that was not nice. I did not think
that was nice.

Speaker 2 (05:36):
I mean, everything's fair game, though, like we have to
talk about it. Yes, Jason, we had to take pictures.

Speaker 1 (05:42):
Of her in public. Oh well, we didn't post the pictures.
And by the way, I had nothing to do with it.

Speaker 2 (05:47):
Why didn't we post a pictures? Because they were just
trying to tattle to Rufio and I that he was
on a date, and we were like, okay, whatever. But
I was zooming in to see the scene and what
was going on, and that's send me to pictures, y'all.

Speaker 1 (06:00):
Everything is kind of good, Okay, Fred's gonna love that.
Somebody said, not gonna lie. I think I could. I
don't think I could date you because I would try
and debate with you too much and we're both too outspoken. Yeah,
I don't know. Again, much larger barker at work than
at home. I don't want I'm a non I'm a
no conflict guy. I want people to be happy. I

(06:21):
don't want I don't want drama. But again, I gotta
come in here. I gotta you know, you know it
was you know it's me. What the hell are you
doing for me? It's me like, I'm like, see there
you go. Are you a tiger? Is that a tiger's noise?

Speaker 2 (06:42):
It could be a dog, could be.

Speaker 1 (06:46):
I don't I don't like it, so I don't want
that in my life. All right, Well, no, I'm not
gonna try and stand your good side. So I never
said that. Yeah, people are texting like extreme examples of this.
When I out of myself as an alcoholic, I shared
it with some friends and when I had a slip,
I regret to tell them it's a journey and no
one's perfect. No, no, no, I understand, You're completely like totally,
that's betrayal. I'm just talking about if you say to me,

(07:11):
you know I like this or I like that in dating,
or I did this or that in dating, and then
you expect a different standard from me in this particular example.
And I'm like, wait a minute, but what you just
told me was the terms are like this. Yeah, did
you just call me a slot? I'm like, no, no,
you did that.

Speaker 2 (07:28):
Actually, I don't know why anyone is on a date
talking about it happens all the time their exes Like
that is big time weirdo energy.

Speaker 1 (07:36):
Mean, it happens to me all the time.

Speaker 2 (07:38):
I know. And I don't know where you find these people,
because I never would bring up an AX or someone
I hooked up with. Well I'm on a date, Like
what is going on.

Speaker 1 (07:47):
The Other problem is I I get a real thrill
out of figuring out what I can get people. I
mean ingrained in me, like it's just what we do
for a living. I love talking to people when you
guys call up here. I love learning about whatever it
is you're talking about. And I will dig and dig
and ask questions that most people won't ask because I
want you to tell me.

Speaker 2 (08:07):
But then you overthink, well, that's true.

Speaker 1 (08:09):
But my point is, you know I don't. I don't know.
It's just like that's how I'm programmed. I'm inquisitive. I asked.
I would rather ask questions to get answers than I
would believe it or not talk about myself. But then
sometimes you tell me stuff and I'm like, WHOA, I
didn't need to know that. I really didn't need to
know that
