Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hi, Rufio, what did you have to explain to Ashley yesterday?
Because this is what this is what I want to
know for the parents out there, for the grown ups
out there.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
Eight five five five nine three five.
Speaker 1 (00:08):
What did you have to explain to your child that
you yourself either didn't know how to explain or like
it was just it was just too much, like the
details weren't important, Like maybe you just made it up
because at the time it was easier just to make
it up.
Speaker 2 (00:25):
Right.
Speaker 3 (00:25):
So yesterday our dog Benny got some surgery. Yesterday he
got neutered and he also had some teeth tacking out.
And we were walking in the other day before his
surgery and we're like, oh, he's got to go into
the to the doctor to get surgeries, and actually is
like why, It's like, well, he's got to get fixed.
Speaker 2 (00:44):
And he's like what does that mean. I'm like, oh,
here we go.
Speaker 4 (00:46):
Like.
Speaker 3 (00:49):
He's you know, it's it's better for him so he
won't have babies, and acting like but I want him
to have babies.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
I want them to have like three babies. I'm like, oh,
here we go.
Speaker 3 (00:57):
Like I've never had a dog before, so I don't
even know how to explain what what getting a dog
neutered means.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
You know, like, I know there's benefits to him, but
I don't know what they are. I just know also that.
Speaker 3 (01:08):
His hiss Kiky calls it Cahony's are gone whatever.
Speaker 1 (01:12):
There's just some removal of items that were yeah, you know,
helpful like that.
Speaker 3 (01:16):
And then he came back yesterday and askedally just wants
to play with it. I was like, you gotta, you
gotta settle down with the dog, like you can't hug him.
Speaker 2 (01:22):
You can't.
Speaker 3 (01:22):
He's he's very fragile right now. So he didn't understand.
I'm like, I don't know. I still don't understand.
Speaker 1 (01:28):
The benefits of neutering a dog, So I'll calm him down.
Speaker 3 (01:32):
Yeah, And I had to look it up. So it's
it's like they live longer. Yeah, they'll they're calmer. Obviously
they won't be humping things, right, you know, he for
the streets like that. Yeah, So it was it was
very interesting to explain to a four year old what
happens to a dog, because I gotta think at.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
Some point it's just easier just to I know, either
it's too complex of a concept, you're not ready to
talk about it, or it's just easier to lie because
you don't know the answer.
Speaker 4 (02:02):
I vividly remember being little and asking my step dad, hey,
where did those two things go on the back of
the rear his cat?
Speaker 2 (02:08):
And they didn't.
Speaker 4 (02:08):
I remember them looking at each other being like, oh
my god, Like, what do we tell her?
Speaker 2 (02:12):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (02:12):
My other problem is is that Action likes to repeat things,
so he'll like, next time you see someone we're with
the dog, he'd be like, hey, my dog.
Speaker 2 (02:19):
You know he can't have babies no more.
Speaker 3 (02:21):
You know, he'll say, he'll say something I tell him,
that's the nicest thing he'll say.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
People are sending their texting logos already of the Kiki show.
Speaker 5 (02:31):
What.
Speaker 2 (02:35):
Crazy Morning Show, Crazy friend?
Speaker 6 (02:40):
I love AK.
Speaker 2 (02:42):
That might be too many cases.
Speaker 7 (02:43):
I was going to say, a crazy fend.
Speaker 2 (02:45):
Yeah, remember the number of case concerns me? Oh my god,
I would never.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
By the way, why did you text that crazy friend?
It's from your phone number. I do like parents that
will say I don't know. They'll lie to their kids
about it's less less importance. I mean, like, I don't know.
I want to go to the ice cream store, like
ice cream Scortes store's closed and it's you know, three
o'clock ont of two.
Speaker 3 (03:13):
Yeah, like you like your sister does with Polly. She says, yeah,
the toy store is closed. Yeah, once you go to
the toy store, it's like noon on a Wednesday. I'm
very much open, but it it's definitely closed. But I
don't know, I mean, what other Like I can imagine
if my kid were asking at a young age about
how babies are made, It's like, at what point? I mean,
I know you don't want to lie to your kid,
(03:33):
but at what point is it just kind of too
complex or like you're gonna you're gonna have to go
down a rabbit hole that you're just not Maybe you're
just not ready, you know, you just don't feel like it.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
So what do you tell them? You know, you tell
them like a stork comes and as somebody else. I mean,
like how long do you tell the fancy, the fanciful story,
like the you know, the fairy tale until you actually
have to go, Okay, this is what's gonna happen.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
I don't know.
Speaker 5 (04:00):
My brother takes a very much a real approach with
his kids, Like he just tells them like straight up,
like they're adults like they are a dot and I'm like, wow,
I could never do that. And I've also learned when
talking to children that I really don't know what I'm
talking about, Like, you know, like that question, I'm like, I.
Speaker 2 (04:17):
Don't know, bro, It's just it's just the way it is.
Speaker 3 (04:19):
Yeah, just take that. Yeah, I say that a lot.
It's like because Ash asks a lot of questions like
what is it, I'm like.
Speaker 2 (04:26):
It's it is what it is. Like you just get
so frustrated you don't know how to respond anymore. So
it's like what they just go but why?
Speaker 1 (04:33):
Yeah?
Speaker 7 (04:33):
Why?
Speaker 2 (04:34):
It's just a constant Well I love.
Speaker 3 (04:36):
I love the constant questions, but then I don't have
the answers.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
For Somebody texted hard to explain to my three and
six year olds why I was sitting on the couch
with an ice pack on my balls after v sectimate.
They keep asking why I needed surgery. Our dog just
got nuted, and our five year old walked around telling
everyone his dog had his balls chopped off. That's what
I'm saying, so that no dogs didn't get pregnant anymore
from him. Damn. Wait, I have the funniest neuter story
(05:02):
see that you can't tease us like that. Someone texts,
I have the funniest neuter story. Well, then call up
here and tells the damn stories. Yeah, call Keeky's crazy
friends over here. It's hard to explain why you're not
with the other parent. Oh, I can imagine that, like
as a as a kid, you know, you're like, well,
because your dad got with a stripper, you know, Like,
I mean, how do you like? I mean, I don't know, Like,
(05:24):
what are you saying? What do you mean with the secretary?
Speaker 5 (05:29):
Why were me and my sister born in the same year?
Speaker 1 (05:33):
Right right, I'm mom and the pool guy cleaned up
a lot of things.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
I mean, I don't know, you know, it's like, what
do you what do you say?
Speaker 1 (05:48):
Oh? Man, hold I want to hear this. I want
to hear this funny Newter story. Well, one morning, my
see that. And the other thing is I read these
texts like blindly as they come in, and then I
regret halfway through period. One morning, my seven year old
woke up and had to go to the bathroom and said, Mom,
why is it so hard to go pee when I
first wake up? Excellent question, Mom, Why is that I
(06:10):
still want to know the answer. It depends on the
child's age. Someone said, my daughter's eleven. There's a lot
of things. I just tell her straight up. Kids are
smarter than we make them out to be.
Speaker 4 (06:20):
Yeah, my friend's son goes, mom, why are my pajamas
getting really tight?
Speaker 2 (06:26):
She's like, oh crap, those Ask your dad, Emily, good morning,
good morning. Why what's your funny neoter story? Not about me,
of course, about the dog, but you know, oh my.
Speaker 8 (06:42):
Gosh, no, no, not me. So basically, what happened when
I was younger, My DAGs went to go get neutered,
and my mom did explain to me, you know what
actually happened that, you know, kiki, they cut off their kohones.
Speaker 6 (06:55):
So yeah, years later, my dad was going for of
esectomy and so when I, like, my mom was explaining
to me what that meant, I looked at her with
like tears in my eyes, and I was like, are
they gonna cut off his khon?
Speaker 8 (07:14):
I thought that they were going to do the same
thing to him.
Speaker 6 (07:17):
I was so upset, But it turns out he was fine.
My mom just said he was going to be sore
for a couple of days.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
So that's excellent news.
Speaker 6 (07:26):
Emily, you wouldn't have thought by the way that he
was acting after the procedure. But I think there.
Speaker 2 (07:34):
That was a good story. Had a good day, all right.
Speaker 9 (07:36):
I love you guys.
Speaker 2 (07:37):
I love you too. Glad you called.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
Hey Meredith, Hi, good morning. So you have a five
and a seven year old. And then when I ask
you questions, what do you do?
Speaker 6 (07:48):
So there's like no smoke in.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
Mirrors in our house.
Speaker 9 (07:52):
It's just like I explain everything like they.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
Would read it in a science book.
Speaker 9 (07:56):
So I was getting dressed one day and my daughter
grabs at my stuff like a big hunk of fat,
and she goes, Mama, why.
Speaker 2 (08:04):
Are you so squishy?
Speaker 9 (08:05):
And I said, well, that's that's fat, okay, And it's
really important because it keeps your body warm, it gives
you energy, and it protects your organs. And guess what,
no further question.
Speaker 1 (08:18):
Oh wow, okay, all right, so you just you just
keep it real.
Speaker 7 (08:23):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (08:25):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (08:25):
And then when we see people walking around, they don't
look at me and go why is that person so fat? Right,
they just know, like that's how the body works, Like
everyone looks different. Everyone's got to protect their organs, stay
warm and have lots of energy.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
I like that explanation. That's that's why I have fat
on my body. That's the reason why, because I need
to stay warm exactly.
Speaker 2 (08:46):
And energy, Meredith, energy, you need all that I need
all those things. Yes, thank you. I have a good day, right,
glad you called. See.
Speaker 1 (08:58):
I guess, I guess you just tell them the truth,
maybe you know, but lies are much easier sometimes, especially
if it's like a really complex topic or if it's
maybe if it's about sex or something.
Speaker 2 (09:07):
It's like, I don't, I don't know. I don't. I don't.
Speaker 1 (09:12):
I don't want to tell you what really is happening here,
So I'm just gonna lie.
Speaker 7 (09:16):
Did you ever have did.
Speaker 2 (09:16):
You have that talk with your parents? Did you have
a talk with your parents about I.
Speaker 1 (09:21):
Don't, I don't. I don't think they did, like didn't
have it with me. I just don't any they would have.
I just don't remember like sitting down and like, Okay,
this is what's going on. I don't remember that. Really
did you have that like formally? Did any of you guys?
Speaker 5 (09:35):
I know, No, I just had an aunt. She kept
it real. Yeah, yeah, my aunt she kept it real
with all the kids. Like you knew when you were
with her. She was like, yo, don't protect yourself like
she taught us all but parents. And now Helena just
took me one day to get birth control and I
was like, oh, okay, oh you think I'm getting it popping?
Speaker 2 (09:53):
All right? Well, yeah, you know the story about my mom.
Speaker 1 (09:55):
I think it was fifteen when she went out and
bought me the extra family size box of Magnum prophylactic
and just put it on top of my laundry like
nothing had happened. And now a word was never spoken
about it. And I was like, okay, well I understand that.
First of all, you were six years early on that
I had to dust those things off. Second of all, Magnum,
(10:17):
thank you let me next, you know. And I guess
my dad was privately furious of her for this thought
that she was enabling me, but not a word was
ever spoken about it.
Speaker 2 (10:30):
Yeah, they talk better than about it.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
These are the radio blogs on the Freddy Life were
writing in our diaries, except we say them alive.
Speaker 2 (10:38):
We call them blogs. Jason Brown.
Speaker 10 (10:39):
Yes, here we go again, Here we go again, take
it away, Thank you, dear blog. So if you remember,
about a month ago, I came across a dog in
the streets. She became the icon known as Dolly, who
then got adopted into a loving family.
Speaker 7 (10:59):
Well, yesterday I.
Speaker 10 (11:01):
Get a text from my boyfriend Mike and it's a
photo of a dog on a leash and he's like,
I found another one.
Speaker 7 (11:10):
And I was like, you're plan.
Speaker 10 (11:12):
Like I thought, like a dog came to visit him
at his mechanic shop, you know, like whatever, Well he
shows up and he has a dog. He was on
a test drive with a customer and there was a
dog in the streets, so he picked it up.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
Look at you.
Speaker 1 (11:32):
It is the same Francis the dog. The dog sat like,
look at you now. I just come to you guys.
Speaker 10 (11:37):
I don't know what is going on, like and maybe
I needed a passion in my life or I needed
like a goal or a purpose. I don't know what
is going on, but these stray dogs keep finding me.
So I was like, Okay, he brings it home. I'm like, well,
I want to get him checked out. Because when I
was going through the process with Dally, I learned a
(11:58):
lot about the human society and adoption and that whole process,
and especially Parvo, which we talked about last hour. Because
today's national Parvo Day Awareness Day and how Deadley could
be for puppies and this is like a baby puppy.
So we brought a call back ghost Serenity. Do you
Maine Society? I was like, well, I got another one, right,
she said, pull up, So I pulled up with the dog.
(12:20):
They're running tests on him today, but Mike's tune is
a little different.
Speaker 2 (12:25):
This time around, so this one's staying.
Speaker 6 (12:28):
He was like.
Speaker 10 (12:29):
I was like, well, let's take him to get him
checked out. He's like, we can bring it. We can
get him back, right, Like we can get him. I
was like, yeah, but we need to go get him tested,
like make sure he's okay, like if he's got anything
that could you know, hurt our girls, you know, like whatever,
Like let's like and cause you get I have two
girl Corgi's yeah, and they don't like other girl dogs.
So that was the big problem with DOLLI was like, okay,
I can't. I know this isn't gonna work. And I
(12:50):
knew from the beginning and being very realistic about this
it's not gonna work.
Speaker 7 (12:54):
Well, now they get they get along well with boy dogs.
Speaker 10 (12:56):
I'm like, okay, he's a boy dog, like so his
name is Willie, after Willie Nelson, and he's a They
think he's about four months old. He's a purple slash
like shepherd mixed. So like he's very cute. We can
post a picture. But so, yeah, he's getting checked up
today and there might be another dog.
Speaker 7 (13:18):
But I'm like, what is going on?
Speaker 2 (13:20):
Another man in his life that shows up on day
one and won't leave. This is.
Speaker 1 (13:27):
Eleven years ago and now Willie not going. Yeah, but
Mike wants this one.
Speaker 7 (13:32):
Yeah, yeah, right, this one, this one is welcome.
Speaker 1 (13:40):
Was not still major difference, but it doesn't matter. Like
maybe Willy's moving into kiki uh. Lately, We've been talking
about a lot of things to trigger you, and this
particular thing triggers me as well. And I've seen I've
seen a couple of things trigger you lately and of
(14:00):
things actually I feel like it could be its own segment.
Speaker 2 (14:02):
You know, he's triggered.
Speaker 5 (14:04):
No, but.
Speaker 1 (14:07):
You and I have a similar sensibility about people who
write on social media send me prayers. I need your prayers.
I need you to, you know, think about me, whatever
it is, and that's it. They just write that right there.
Facebook is famous for this and nothing else. Yep, what
(14:27):
am I praying about? Exactly? Who am I praying for?
What am I praying about? What happened?
Speaker 5 (14:33):
I need an update after the prayers have been answered,
because my prayers go straight to the big Guy. So
once he fixes your life, I need an update on
what was going.
Speaker 7 (14:41):
On and how did it resolve itself.
Speaker 2 (14:43):
Yes, you got twenty four hours to respond.
Speaker 1 (14:45):
Yes, I will ask me for prayers. I need to
know what I'm praying for absolutely period.
Speaker 5 (14:51):
And it's triggered me because somebody was missing for days
and I was praying, you know, Lord, bring him home,
and he brought him home and then it was like,
oh he's found.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
Okay, where was he at.
Speaker 5 (15:01):
For the last seventy two hours? I need to know
what was he doing, where was he at, what was
he eating? Like, give me some type of detail you
ask for my prayers. I think I deserve a detail.
Someone you know is missing, No I didn't know them,
but oh you know, like, okay for him his name
in at it and.
Speaker 2 (15:18):
Add it to your prayer list. That's cool, that was cool.
Speaker 5 (15:20):
But I need it up there. I need details on
what what happened.
Speaker 2 (15:24):
No, I hear that, Yeah, that's a that's a big problem.
Speaker 5 (15:26):
I hate when people go on social media and announce
a death and then get mad at me when I
ask what happened?
Speaker 1 (15:32):
How did they die? I would just like to know,
wait a minute, to know how they died, because you
need to know. I don't agree with that. You don't
need to know if at least if somebody says, like,
you know, we're missing who was you know so and so,
and maybe they give you a little context about maybe
a nice picture like who they were, grandma or grandpa,
you know where.
Speaker 2 (15:49):
That's enough for me. I don't need it. Then go
do they have a seizure?
Speaker 6 (15:52):
What?
Speaker 2 (15:52):
No, I need to know. I'm gonna keep you.
Speaker 3 (15:56):
Go to the comments to see if someone says, oh,
they died in a car accident. Watch you have to watch,
especially like if there's someone of like a younger age,
like recently someone I knew that in the high school
days passed away. I was like, oh my god, like
I never talked to this person in whatever years.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
But then like you want to know how they died,
and people are like, I don't need people.
Speaker 3 (16:18):
Then people someone would comment like, oh what happened? That
is so rude to ask on this point that is rude.
Speaker 1 (16:24):
That is rude for it to put on a post
how did they die?
Speaker 6 (16:29):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (16:29):
No, oh my.
Speaker 5 (16:30):
God, if something God forbid happened to any one of us,
I post on the line online rest in peace to
so and so. It is not wrong if the thirteen
want to know what happens to it, like you have shot.
Speaker 2 (16:45):
The place that isn't the venue for it. Figure it
out some other way because the person's.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
Grieving, and what they don't need to do is is
have you then like the details basically poor assault in
it and be like no, well, actually, like let's relive
it again. What happened here?
Speaker 2 (16:59):
I knew you too, So I just want to know
what what took you out? What happened.
Speaker 3 (17:07):
This big long posts about this person and how they
were great in life?
Speaker 2 (17:11):
They lit up the room. And then you know, tell
me how.
Speaker 1 (17:15):
Maybe the way that they died, Maybe the way that
they died was embarrassing or perhaps tragic or not necessarily
in line with the way they want to be remembered.
Speaker 2 (17:24):
It's son of your business.
Speaker 1 (17:25):
Or maybe call the person directly if you must know,
or how about if you're supposed to know, you'll probably
know the answer. Otherwise you don't know the answer because
you're not supposed to because none of your business.
Speaker 2 (17:34):
Wow, yeah, shocked.
Speaker 1 (17:36):
Now I'm with you on the blind send prayers and
thoughts because that is all you're asking for is people
to then say what's wrong with you? And like you're
it's kind of attention It is not kind of It
is attention seeking.
Speaker 4 (17:48):
I mean on a letter note, I do think if
you've involved me in your relationship via social media and
you guys break up, I do need a breakup announcement
or a divorce announcement as to why the relationship didn't work.
Speaker 2 (17:58):
Because you included me in.
Speaker 4 (17:59):
Your six year anniversary, six month, your three month you know,
we know what he got you for Christmas.
Speaker 2 (18:04):
I need to know what broke ud you expect me
to post something about that? Correct, you share detail relationship.
You got to share this, you fix that, he could
do that, right. No, I need to know why it
did not wear.
Speaker 1 (18:17):
Why did I have to write a statement yes and
post it to my Instagram as to why I broke
up with someone?
Speaker 4 (18:23):
But you also don't involve us in your relationships like that,
So you're good.
Speaker 2 (18:26):
I don't need you. If you keep it private, then
keep it private.
Speaker 9 (18:29):
No.
Speaker 1 (18:29):
If I consult you on my relationship, then you and
you give me advice and you want to know what happened.
That's one thing. But I don't if I talk about
a relationship publicly or post a picture of a woman
who I'm dating on Instagram, I don't owe the world.
Speaker 2 (18:43):
In explanation in the first place.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
Posting a picture on my Instagram? Is that involving you?
Speaker 10 (18:49):
No?
Speaker 4 (18:49):
But if there's more, there's some people that share too
much detail, too much about their relationship.
Speaker 2 (18:54):
Not this is not you.
Speaker 3 (18:55):
You don't do It's like if you're sharing every anniversary,
sharing sweetest date, if you're sharing how much you love
this person, you have to.
Speaker 1 (19:02):
Write a statement as to why I'm not with them anymore.
Speaker 2 (19:06):
We want to know why you ain't together no more?
Speaker 7 (19:09):
What happened?
Speaker 2 (19:09):
Where did you all get so damn nosy?
Speaker 5 (19:12):
I just need to know why you died, why you
broke up?
Speaker 2 (19:14):
Well, I'm dead, I can't tell you. You're gonna find
out anyway. Might as well just tell us from the junk.
Speaker 8 (19:19):
You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 10 (19:20):
If he doesn't have to be a public platform, but
you know that he cheated on.
Speaker 7 (19:24):
Me with this guy.
Speaker 5 (19:26):
This guy about like, that's a why, Like Caylen said,
six years, we know every relationship with you, and then.
Speaker 2 (19:34):
Look at myself single on Facebook and that's it.
Speaker 1 (19:39):
The only people who are owed in explanation are the
people who maybe knew the person who consulted me on
the breakup. If you once saw a picture of a
girl I'm dating on Facebook, you don't.
Speaker 2 (19:50):
You are not in explanation. You don't do this, so
you're in the clear. You don't need to make any
formal announcements, right, I know you don't know? Don't you
know why? I'm either?
Speaker 1 (20:00):
Yes, I do?
Speaker 2 (20:01):
I need to need closure? What about me? It was
a tragic masturbation accident. Section you know? Thread show?
Speaker 10 (20:13):
Next the thread show is on friend's fun facts Fun.
Speaker 2 (20:27):
So much? Guys?
Speaker 1 (20:30):
Did you know that allmost is the longest word in
English with all of the letters in alphabetical order.
Speaker 2 (20:42):
Did you know that?
Speaker 1 (20:44):
Did you know that? And how how did you go?
How did you make it this far in your life
without knowing that? It's an important it's an important question.
Almost is the longest word in English with all of
the letters in alphabetical order. That may come up someday.
I mean, honestly, you could be the most interesting person
in your office today if you bring that up.
Speaker 2 (21:05):
You know that Roovio I did not. I didn't think
you did.
Speaker 3 (21:08):
Usually I'm talking about on know, some kind of sex
animal thing. The fact that you give me.
Speaker 2 (21:12):
And sex animal thing.
Speaker 1 (21:14):
You know, Rubio is always talking about sex animals and
it's it's.
Speaker 2 (21:18):
Awkward, it's and that's never usually the hit of the
water cooler.
Speaker 1 (21:22):
Excuse me. Maybe it's maybe it's your presentation that is
a problem. Maybe spent your walking up to random people
and talking about you know, random animal.
Speaker 3 (21:31):
Sexual like, you know, did you know that the female
affair will die if she doesn't have sex?
Speaker 10 (21:36):
And they're like your boss was like, okay, I mean
you were already in an HR meeting.
Speaker 1 (21:43):
That wasn't the right time for the More Freas show next. Yeah,
they talk better than these are the radio blogs on
the Fresh.
Speaker 2 (21:56):
It really takes a lot for me to have nothing
to say.
Speaker 1 (21:59):
And it happened yesterday on the Tangent off Air on
stut podcast, on the iHeart appisodes put a Fred show
on demand, like writing in our diaries, except we stayed.
Speaker 2 (22:06):
Up a loud. We call them blogs, Rufi, Thank you,
dear blog.
Speaker 3 (22:10):
So I don't know what you guys do when like
a relationship is over and on social media and you
guys are whatever friends on social media, what do you
guys do, Like, do you guys just unfollow? Do you
guys block? Do you guys like you?
Speaker 1 (22:25):
You say, if I break up with somebody right right,
me as the boyfriend of the person, Well, yeah, well, if.
Speaker 3 (22:31):
It's like a mutual you know, if it's a mutual ending,
and then you're just like, hey, dude, do you tell
the person that we're gonna unfollow each other?
Speaker 2 (22:37):
Do you block them?
Speaker 1 (22:39):
Maybe a mute? It depends. I guess it depends on
the terms of the breakup, all right. If it's a
good breakup, maybe you don't do anything.
Speaker 2 (22:44):
The situation I'm in right now.
Speaker 3 (22:47):
About a month ago, you know, uh, devastating news happened
when Justin Fields was traded from the Bears or Steelers.
And I have never on finre followed like a sports
athletes when they play for my team, you know what
I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (23:07):
So you're asking about this because you followed an athlete
who doesn't play for your team anymore.
Speaker 3 (23:12):
And it's like a relation because I ipposed to I
genuinely loved Justin Fields, like I thought he was going
to be the Bears quarterback for the longest time.
Speaker 2 (23:23):
And this is the alert came. You know, he got
traded for pennies.
Speaker 3 (23:29):
And I want to unfollow him, but I because I
don't want to see him, uh you know, well, like
at the same time, I need to I need to
keep knowing what's going on with him and and and
I want to see him succeed, but I don't.
Speaker 2 (23:45):
I don't want to, you know, because he doesn't play
with my team anymore.
Speaker 7 (23:49):
Exactly.
Speaker 3 (23:50):
I have never honestly boken it up with a an
athlete in Chicago, like I still follow Derrick Rose because
I love him, buy it and I look Chris Bryan,
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (24:02):
I actually spoke to Justin Field's former quarterback of the
Chicago Bears, and he told me that he would be
devastated if if as part of him leaving town, if
you were to unfollow him, that would be the ultimate
sort of that really would would set the whole thing over.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
Well, you're forgetting how he told us he was breaking
up with us by on following us.
Speaker 1 (24:19):
Yeah, he unfollowed this China and he was like I
don't want to see football on my timeline.
Speaker 2 (24:23):
You're lying. You know they broke up with him, they
dumped they dumped him.
Speaker 3 (24:27):
Can you tell him to actually follow me first.
Speaker 2 (24:31):
To know?
Speaker 1 (24:32):
It will be very difficult for him to know if
you followed him, because he doesn't know already.
Speaker 3 (24:37):
Never unfollowed an athlete that played for my team, like
they created and but I you know, I get so
invested in their lives and they play for my team
and then they leave, Oh my god, but I want
I always want them to succeed, unless they're playing for
a rival. I did unfollow Wilson Conjurius because he plays
with the Cardinals.
Speaker 2 (24:55):
Now, okay, but.
Speaker 1 (24:58):
I thought I was an overthinker this sitting around talking
about breaking up with someone who's never met him.
Speaker 3 (25:02):
And it's also the fact you said, like Justin Fields
didn't want to talk about football anymore. But now that's
all he's I mean, that's all he's doing now. He
just posted he just posted the skyline of Pittsburgh. I'm like,
I can't see this.
Speaker 2 (25:13):
He hurts you, Yes, he's out with a new has
what I need to see.
Speaker 1 (25:18):
I think it's affecting you negatively. And I think you
need to unfollow or at least mute.
Speaker 2 (25:23):
At least mute mute, then he can't see what's going.
Speaker 1 (25:26):
On, right, But I mean at least unfollowing is not
unfollowing his final unfollowing is a I mean, not that
you can't refollow, but unfollowing is it? That's a yeah.
I mean you're you're making a statement about what you
think about. Some muting is just I can't handle it
right now, Okay, but I could grow to handle it again.
Speaker 2 (25:44):
Okay, it's a little less a little less severe.
Speaker 3 (25:47):
Because I'm gonna end up seeing it like whatever Sports Center,
ESPN they're going to post.
Speaker 1 (25:51):
You're not going to be able to hide from your
ex boyfriend forever. You know you can't do it. You're
going to see him out with other people.
Speaker 7 (25:56):
I'm standing on this.
Speaker 10 (25:57):
Sports are so gay.
Speaker 7 (26:02):
Y'all need to admit it.
Speaker 2 (26:04):
Yeah, each other. I mean the way that he's making it. Yeah,
I just can't break up with them. I can't.
Speaker 4 (26:10):
The pants, the outfits, the costumes.
Speaker 2 (26:14):
He's stratasizing over a man he's never met. He's on
the phone that one time though, he's not sure if
he can look at this man's anymore. You're right. Jason
Hi, Rufio, what did you have to explain to Ashley yesterday?
Because this is what this is what I want to
know for the parents out there, for the grown ups
out there.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
Eight five five five nine three five.
Speaker 1 (00:08):
What did you have to explain to your child that
you yourself either didn't know how to explain or like
it was just it was just too much, like the
details weren't important, Like maybe you just made it up
because at the time it was easier just to make
it up.
Speaker 2 (00:25):
Right.
Speaker 3 (00:25):
So yesterday our dog Benny got some surgery. Yesterday he
got neutered and he also had some teeth tacking out.
And we were walking in the other day before his
surgery and we're like, oh, he's got to go into
the to the doctor to get surgeries, and actually is
like why, It's like, well, he's got to get fixed.
Speaker 2 (00:44):
And he's like what does that mean. I'm like, oh,
here we go.
Speaker 4 (00:46):
Like.
Speaker 3 (00:49):
He's you know, it's it's better for him so he
won't have babies, and acting like but I want him
to have babies.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
I want them to have like three babies. I'm like, oh,
here we go.
Speaker 3 (00:57):
Like I've never had a dog before, so I don't
even know how to explain what what getting a dog
neutered means.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
You know, like, I know there's benefits to him, but
I don't know what they are. I just know also that.
Speaker 3 (01:08):
His hiss Kiky calls it Cahony's are gone whatever.
Speaker 1 (01:12):
There's just some removal of items that were yeah, you know,
helpful like that.
Speaker 3 (01:16):
And then he came back yesterday and askedally just wants
to play with it. I was like, you gotta, you
gotta settle down with the dog, like you can't hug him.
Speaker 2 (01:22):
You can't.
Speaker 3 (01:22):
He's he's very fragile right now. So he didn't understand.
I'm like, I don't know. I still don't understand.
Speaker 1 (01:28):
The benefits of neutering a dog, So I'll calm him down.
Speaker 3 (01:32):
Yeah, And I had to look it up. So it's
it's like they live longer. Yeah, they'll they're calmer. Obviously
they won't be humping things, right, you know, he for
the streets like that. Yeah, So it was it was
very interesting to explain to a four year old what
happens to a dog, because I gotta think at.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
Some point it's just easier just to I know, either
it's too complex of a concept, you're not ready to
talk about it, or it's just easier to lie because
you don't know the answer.
Speaker 4 (02:02):
I vividly remember being little and asking my step dad, hey,
where did those two things go on the back of
the rear his cat?
Speaker 2 (02:08):
And they didn't.
Speaker 4 (02:08):
I remember them looking at each other being like, oh
my god, Like, what do we tell her?
Speaker 2 (02:12):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (02:12):
My other problem is is that Action likes to repeat things,
so he'll like, next time you see someone we're with
the dog, he'd be like, hey, my dog.
Speaker 2 (02:19):
You know he can't have babies no more.
Speaker 3 (02:21):
You know, he'll say, he'll say something I tell him,
that's the nicest thing he'll say.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
People are sending their texting logos already of the Kiki show.
Speaker 5 (02:31):
What.
Speaker 2 (02:35):
Crazy Morning Show, Crazy friend?
Speaker 6 (02:40):
I love AK.
Speaker 2 (02:42):
That might be too many cases.
Speaker 7 (02:43):
I was going to say, a crazy fend.
Speaker 2 (02:45):
Yeah, remember the number of case concerns me? Oh my god,
I would never.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
By the way, why did you text that crazy friend?
It's from your phone number. I do like parents that
will say I don't know. They'll lie to their kids
about it's less less importance. I mean, like, I don't know.
I want to go to the ice cream store, like
ice cream Scortes store's closed and it's you know, three
o'clock ont of two.
Speaker 3 (03:13):
Yeah, like you like your sister does with Polly. She says, yeah,
the toy store is closed. Yeah, once you go to
the toy store, it's like noon on a Wednesday. I'm
very much open, but it it's definitely closed. But I
don't know, I mean, what other Like I can imagine
if my kid were asking at a young age about
how babies are made, It's like, at what point? I mean,
I know you don't want to lie to your kid,
(03:33):
but at what point is it just kind of too
complex or like you're gonna you're gonna have to go
down a rabbit hole that you're just not Maybe you're
just not ready, you know, you just don't feel like it.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
So what do you tell them? You know, you tell
them like a stork comes and as somebody else. I mean,
like how long do you tell the fancy, the fanciful story,
like the you know, the fairy tale until you actually
have to go, Okay, this is what's gonna happen.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
I don't know.
Speaker 5 (04:00):
My brother takes a very much a real approach with
his kids, Like he just tells them like straight up,
like they're adults like they are a dot and I'm like, wow,
I could never do that. And I've also learned when
talking to children that I really don't know what I'm
talking about, Like, you know, like that question, I'm like, I.
Speaker 2 (04:17):
Don't know, bro, It's just it's just the way it is.
Speaker 3 (04:19):
Yeah, just take that. Yeah, I say that a lot.
It's like because Ash asks a lot of questions like
what is it, I'm like.
Speaker 2 (04:26):
It's it is what it is. Like you just get
so frustrated you don't know how to respond anymore. So
it's like what they just go but why?
Speaker 1 (04:33):
Yeah?
Speaker 7 (04:33):
Why?
Speaker 2 (04:34):
It's just a constant Well I love.
Speaker 3 (04:36):
I love the constant questions, but then I don't have
the answers.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
For Somebody texted hard to explain to my three and
six year olds why I was sitting on the couch
with an ice pack on my balls after v sectimate.
They keep asking why I needed surgery. Our dog just
got nuted, and our five year old walked around telling
everyone his dog had his balls chopped off. That's what
I'm saying, so that no dogs didn't get pregnant anymore
from him. Damn. Wait, I have the funniest neuter story
(05:02):
see that you can't tease us like that. Someone texts,
I have the funniest neuter story. Well, then call up
here and tells the damn stories. Yeah, call Keeky's crazy
friends over here. It's hard to explain why you're not
with the other parent. Oh, I can imagine that, like
as a as a kid, you know, you're like, well,
because your dad got with a stripper, you know, Like,
I mean, how do you like? I mean, I don't know, Like,
(05:24):
what are you saying? What do you mean with the secretary?
Speaker 5 (05:29):
Why were me and my sister born in the same year?
Speaker 1 (05:33):
Right right, I'm mom and the pool guy cleaned up
a lot of things.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
I mean, I don't know, you know, it's like, what
do you what do you say?
Speaker 1 (05:48):
Oh? Man, hold I want to hear this. I want
to hear this funny Newter story. Well, one morning, my
see that. And the other thing is I read these
texts like blindly as they come in, and then I
regret halfway through period. One morning, my seven year old
woke up and had to go to the bathroom and said, Mom,
why is it so hard to go pee when I
first wake up? Excellent question, Mom, Why is that I
(06:10):
still want to know the answer. It depends on the
child's age. Someone said, my daughter's eleven. There's a lot
of things. I just tell her straight up. Kids are
smarter than we make them out to be.
Speaker 4 (06:20):
Yeah, my friend's son goes, mom, why are my pajamas
getting really tight?
Speaker 2 (06:26):
She's like, oh crap, those Ask your dad, Emily, good morning,
good morning. Why what's your funny neoter story? Not about me,
of course, about the dog, but you know, oh my.
Speaker 8 (06:42):
Gosh, no, no, not me. So basically, what happened when
I was younger, My DAGs went to go get neutered,
and my mom did explain to me, you know what
actually happened that, you know, kiki, they cut off their kohones.
Speaker 6 (06:55):
So yeah, years later, my dad was going for of
esectomy and so when I, like, my mom was explaining
to me what that meant, I looked at her with
like tears in my eyes, and I was like, are
they gonna cut off his khon?
Speaker 8 (07:14):
I thought that they were going to do the same
thing to him.
Speaker 6 (07:17):
I was so upset, But it turns out he was fine.
My mom just said he was going to be sore
for a couple of days.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
So that's excellent news.
Speaker 6 (07:26):
Emily, you wouldn't have thought by the way that he
was acting after the procedure. But I think there.
Speaker 2 (07:34):
That was a good story. Had a good day, all right.
Speaker 9 (07:36):
I love you guys.
Speaker 2 (07:37):
I love you too. Glad you called.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
Hey Meredith, Hi, good morning. So you have a five
and a seven year old. And then when I ask
you questions, what do you do?
Speaker 6 (07:48):
So there's like no smoke in.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
Mirrors in our house.
Speaker 9 (07:52):
It's just like I explain everything like they.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
Would read it in a science book.
Speaker 9 (07:56):
So I was getting dressed one day and my daughter
grabs at my stuff like a big hunk of fat,
and she goes, Mama, why.
Speaker 2 (08:04):
Are you so squishy?
Speaker 9 (08:05):
And I said, well, that's that's fat, okay, And it's
really important because it keeps your body warm, it gives
you energy, and it protects your organs. And guess what,
no further question.
Speaker 1 (08:18):
Oh wow, okay, all right, so you just you just
keep it real.
Speaker 7 (08:23):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (08:25):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (08:25):
And then when we see people walking around, they don't
look at me and go why is that person so fat? Right,
they just know, like that's how the body works, Like
everyone looks different. Everyone's got to protect their organs, stay
warm and have lots of energy.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
I like that explanation. That's that's why I have fat
on my body. That's the reason why, because I need
to stay warm exactly.
Speaker 2 (08:46):
And energy, Meredith, energy, you need all that I need
all those things. Yes, thank you. I have a good day, right,
glad you called. See.
Speaker 1 (08:58):
I guess, I guess you just tell them the truth,
maybe you know, but lies are much easier sometimes, especially
if it's like a really complex topic or if it's
maybe if it's about sex or something.
Speaker 2 (09:07):
It's like, I don't, I don't know. I don't. I don't.
Speaker 1 (09:12):
I don't want to tell you what really is happening here,
So I'm just gonna lie.
Speaker 7 (09:16):
Did you ever have did.
Speaker 2 (09:16):
You have that talk with your parents? Did you have
a talk with your parents about I.
Speaker 1 (09:21):
Don't, I don't. I don't think they did, like didn't
have it with me. I just don't any they would have.
I just don't remember like sitting down and like, Okay,
this is what's going on. I don't remember that. Really
did you have that like formally? Did any of you guys?
Speaker 5 (09:35):
I know, No, I just had an aunt. She kept
it real. Yeah, yeah, my aunt she kept it real
with all the kids. Like you knew when you were
with her. She was like, yo, don't protect yourself like
she taught us all but parents. And now Helena just
took me one day to get birth control and I
was like, oh, okay, oh you think I'm getting it popping?
Speaker 2 (09:53):
All right? Well, yeah, you know the story about my mom.
Speaker 1 (09:55):
I think it was fifteen when she went out and
bought me the extra family size box of Magnum prophylactic
and just put it on top of my laundry like
nothing had happened. And now a word was never spoken
about it. And I was like, okay, well I understand that.
First of all, you were six years early on that
I had to dust those things off. Second of all, Magnum,
(10:17):
thank you let me next, you know. And I guess
my dad was privately furious of her for this thought
that she was enabling me, but not a word was
ever spoken about it.
Speaker 2 (10:30):
Yeah, they talk better than about it.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
These are the radio blogs on the Freddy Life were
writing in our diaries, except we say them alive.
Speaker 2 (10:38):
We call them blogs. Jason Brown.
Speaker 10 (10:39):
Yes, here we go again, Here we go again, take
it away, Thank you, dear blog. So if you remember,
about a month ago, I came across a dog in
the streets. She became the icon known as Dolly, who
then got adopted into a loving family.
Speaker 7 (10:59):
Well, yesterday I.
Speaker 10 (11:01):
Get a text from my boyfriend Mike and it's a
photo of a dog on a leash and he's like,
I found another one.
Speaker 7 (11:10):
And I was like, you're plan.
Speaker 10 (11:12):
Like I thought, like a dog came to visit him
at his mechanic shop, you know, like whatever, Well he
shows up and he has a dog. He was on
a test drive with a customer and there was a
dog in the streets, so he picked it up.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
Look at you.
Speaker 1 (11:32):
It is the same Francis the dog. The dog sat like,
look at you now. I just come to you guys.
Speaker 10 (11:37):
I don't know what is going on, like and maybe
I needed a passion in my life or I needed
like a goal or a purpose. I don't know what
is going on, but these stray dogs keep finding me.
So I was like, Okay, he brings it home. I'm like, well,
I want to get him checked out. Because when I
was going through the process with Dally, I learned a
(11:58):
lot about the human society and adoption and that whole process,
and especially Parvo, which we talked about last hour. Because
today's national Parvo Day Awareness Day and how Deadley could
be for puppies and this is like a baby puppy.
So we brought a call back ghost Serenity. Do you
Maine Society? I was like, well, I got another one, right,
she said, pull up, So I pulled up with the dog.
(12:20):
They're running tests on him today, but Mike's tune is
a little different.
Speaker 2 (12:25):
This time around, so this one's staying.
Speaker 6 (12:28):
He was like.
Speaker 10 (12:29):
I was like, well, let's take him to get him
checked out. He's like, we can bring it. We can
get him back, right, Like we can get him. I
was like, yeah, but we need to go get him tested,
like make sure he's okay, like if he's got anything
that could you know, hurt our girls, you know, like whatever,
Like let's like and cause you get I have two
girl Corgi's yeah, and they don't like other girl dogs.
So that was the big problem with DOLLI was like, okay,
I can't. I know this isn't gonna work. And I
(12:50):
knew from the beginning and being very realistic about this
it's not gonna work.
Speaker 7 (12:54):
Well, now they get they get along well with boy dogs.
Speaker 10 (12:56):
I'm like, okay, he's a boy dog, like so his
name is Willie, after Willie Nelson, and he's a They
think he's about four months old. He's a purple slash
like shepherd mixed. So like he's very cute. We can
post a picture. But so, yeah, he's getting checked up
today and there might be another dog.
Speaker 7 (13:18):
But I'm like, what is going on?
Speaker 2 (13:20):
Another man in his life that shows up on day
one and won't leave. This is.
Speaker 1 (13:27):
Eleven years ago and now Willie not going. Yeah, but
Mike wants this one.
Speaker 7 (13:32):
Yeah, yeah, right, this one, this one is welcome.
Speaker 1 (13:40):
Was not still major difference, but it doesn't matter. Like
maybe Willy's moving into kiki uh. Lately, We've been talking
about a lot of things to trigger you, and this
particular thing triggers me as well. And I've seen I've
seen a couple of things trigger you lately and of
(14:00):
things actually I feel like it could be its own segment.
Speaker 2 (14:02):
You know, he's triggered.
Speaker 5 (14:04):
No, but.
Speaker 1 (14:07):
You and I have a similar sensibility about people who
write on social media send me prayers. I need your prayers.
I need you to, you know, think about me, whatever
it is, and that's it. They just write that right there.
Facebook is famous for this and nothing else. Yep, what
(14:27):
am I praying about? Exactly? Who am I praying for?
What am I praying about? What happened?
Speaker 5 (14:33):
I need an update after the prayers have been answered,
because my prayers go straight to the big Guy. So
once he fixes your life, I need an update on
what was going.
Speaker 7 (14:41):
On and how did it resolve itself.
Speaker 2 (14:43):
Yes, you got twenty four hours to respond.
Speaker 1 (14:45):
Yes, I will ask me for prayers. I need to
know what I'm praying for absolutely period.
Speaker 5 (14:51):
And it's triggered me because somebody was missing for days
and I was praying, you know, Lord, bring him home,
and he brought him home and then it was like,
oh he's found.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
Okay, where was he at.
Speaker 5 (15:01):
For the last seventy two hours? I need to know
what was he doing, where was he at, what was
he eating? Like, give me some type of detail you
ask for my prayers. I think I deserve a detail.
Someone you know is missing, No I didn't know them,
but oh you know, like, okay for him his name
in at it and.
Speaker 2 (15:18):
Add it to your prayer list. That's cool, that was cool.
Speaker 5 (15:20):
But I need it up there. I need details on
what what happened.
Speaker 2 (15:24):
No, I hear that, Yeah, that's a that's a big problem.
Speaker 5 (15:26):
I hate when people go on social media and announce
a death and then get mad at me when I
ask what happened?
Speaker 1 (15:32):
How did they die? I would just like to know,
wait a minute, to know how they died, because you
need to know. I don't agree with that. You don't
need to know if at least if somebody says, like,
you know, we're missing who was you know so and so,
and maybe they give you a little context about maybe
a nice picture like who they were, grandma or grandpa,
you know where.
Speaker 2 (15:49):
That's enough for me. I don't need it. Then go
do they have a seizure?
Speaker 6 (15:52):
What?
Speaker 2 (15:52):
No, I need to know. I'm gonna keep you.
Speaker 3 (15:56):
Go to the comments to see if someone says, oh,
they died in a car accident. Watch you have to watch,
especially like if there's someone of like a younger age,
like recently someone I knew that in the high school
days passed away. I was like, oh my god, like
I never talked to this person in whatever years.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
But then like you want to know how they died,
and people are like, I don't need people.
Speaker 3 (16:18):
Then people someone would comment like, oh what happened? That
is so rude to ask on this point that is rude.
Speaker 1 (16:24):
That is rude for it to put on a post
how did they die?
Speaker 6 (16:29):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (16:29):
No, oh my.
Speaker 5 (16:30):
God, if something God forbid happened to any one of us,
I post on the line online rest in peace to
so and so. It is not wrong if the thirteen
want to know what happens to it, like you have shot.
Speaker 2 (16:45):
The place that isn't the venue for it. Figure it
out some other way because the person's.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
Grieving, and what they don't need to do is is
have you then like the details basically poor assault in
it and be like no, well, actually, like let's relive
it again. What happened here?
Speaker 2 (16:59):
I knew you too, So I just want to know
what what took you out? What happened.
Speaker 3 (17:07):
This big long posts about this person and how they
were great in life?
Speaker 2 (17:11):
They lit up the room. And then you know, tell
me how.
Speaker 1 (17:15):
Maybe the way that they died, Maybe the way that
they died was embarrassing or perhaps tragic or not necessarily
in line with the way they want to be remembered.
Speaker 2 (17:24):
It's son of your business.
Speaker 1 (17:25):
Or maybe call the person directly if you must know,
or how about if you're supposed to know, you'll probably
know the answer. Otherwise you don't know the answer because
you're not supposed to because none of your business.
Speaker 2 (17:34):
Wow, yeah, shocked.
Speaker 1 (17:36):
Now I'm with you on the blind send prayers and
thoughts because that is all you're asking for is people
to then say what's wrong with you? And like you're
it's kind of attention It is not kind of It
is attention seeking.
Speaker 4 (17:48):
I mean on a letter note, I do think if
you've involved me in your relationship via social media and
you guys break up, I do need a breakup announcement
or a divorce announcement as to why the relationship didn't work.
Speaker 2 (17:58):
Because you included me in.
Speaker 4 (17:59):
Your six year anniversary, six month, your three month you know,
we know what he got you for Christmas.
Speaker 2 (18:04):
I need to know what broke ud you expect me
to post something about that? Correct, you share detail relationship.
You got to share this, you fix that, he could
do that, right. No, I need to know why it
did not wear.
Speaker 1 (18:17):
Why did I have to write a statement yes and
post it to my Instagram as to why I broke
up with someone?
Speaker 4 (18:23):
But you also don't involve us in your relationships like that,
So you're good.
Speaker 2 (18:26):
I don't need you. If you keep it private, then
keep it private.
Speaker 9 (18:29):
No.
Speaker 1 (18:29):
If I consult you on my relationship, then you and
you give me advice and you want to know what happened.
That's one thing. But I don't if I talk about
a relationship publicly or post a picture of a woman
who I'm dating on Instagram, I don't owe the world.
Speaker 2 (18:43):
In explanation in the first place.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
Posting a picture on my Instagram? Is that involving you?
Speaker 10 (18:49):
No?
Speaker 4 (18:49):
But if there's more, there's some people that share too
much detail, too much about their relationship.
Speaker 2 (18:54):
Not this is not you.
Speaker 3 (18:55):
You don't do It's like if you're sharing every anniversary,
sharing sweetest date, if you're sharing how much you love
this person, you have to.
Speaker 1 (19:02):
Write a statement as to why I'm not with them anymore.
Speaker 2 (19:06):
We want to know why you ain't together no more?
Speaker 7 (19:09):
What happened?
Speaker 2 (19:09):
Where did you all get so damn nosy?
Speaker 5 (19:12):
I just need to know why you died, why you
broke up?
Speaker 2 (19:14):
Well, I'm dead, I can't tell you. You're gonna find
out anyway. Might as well just tell us from the junk.
Speaker 8 (19:19):
You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 10 (19:20):
If he doesn't have to be a public platform, but
you know that he cheated on.
Speaker 7 (19:24):
Me with this guy.
Speaker 5 (19:26):
This guy about like, that's a why, Like Caylen said,
six years, we know every relationship with you, and then.
Speaker 2 (19:34):
Look at myself single on Facebook and that's it.
Speaker 1 (19:39):
The only people who are owed in explanation are the
people who maybe knew the person who consulted me on
the breakup. If you once saw a picture of a
girl I'm dating on Facebook, you don't.
Speaker 2 (19:50):
You are not in explanation. You don't do this, so
you're in the clear. You don't need to make any
formal announcements, right, I know you don't know? Don't you
know why? I'm either?
Speaker 1 (20:00):
Yes, I do?
Speaker 2 (20:01):
I need to need closure? What about me? It was
a tragic masturbation accident. Section you know? Thread show?
Speaker 10 (20:13):
Next the thread show is on friend's fun facts Fun.
Speaker 2 (20:27):
So much? Guys?
Speaker 1 (20:30):
Did you know that allmost is the longest word in
English with all of the letters in alphabetical order.
Speaker 2 (20:42):
Did you know that?
Speaker 1 (20:44):
Did you know that? And how how did you go?
How did you make it this far in your life
without knowing that? It's an important it's an important question.
Almost is the longest word in English with all of
the letters in alphabetical order. That may come up someday.
I mean, honestly, you could be the most interesting person
in your office today if you bring that up.
Speaker 2 (21:05):
You know that Roovio I did not. I didn't think
you did.
Speaker 3 (21:08):
Usually I'm talking about on know, some kind of sex
animal thing. The fact that you give me.
Speaker 2 (21:12):
And sex animal thing.
Speaker 1 (21:14):
You know, Rubio is always talking about sex animals and
it's it's.
Speaker 2 (21:18):
Awkward, it's and that's never usually the hit of the
water cooler.
Speaker 1 (21:22):
Excuse me. Maybe it's maybe it's your presentation that is
a problem. Maybe spent your walking up to random people
and talking about you know, random animal.
Speaker 3 (21:31):
Sexual like, you know, did you know that the female
affair will die if she doesn't have sex?
Speaker 10 (21:36):
And they're like your boss was like, okay, I mean
you were already in an HR meeting.
Speaker 1 (21:43):
That wasn't the right time for the More Freas show next. Yeah,
they talk better than these are the radio blogs on
the Fresh.
Speaker 2 (21:56):
It really takes a lot for me to have nothing
to say.
Speaker 1 (21:59):
And it happened yesterday on the Tangent off Air on
stut podcast, on the iHeart appisodes put a Fred show
on demand, like writing in our diaries, except we stayed.
Speaker 2 (22:06):
Up a loud. We call them blogs, Rufi, Thank you,
dear blog.
Speaker 3 (22:10):
So I don't know what you guys do when like
a relationship is over and on social media and you
guys are whatever friends on social media, what do you
guys do, Like, do you guys just unfollow? Do you
guys block? Do you guys like you?
Speaker 1 (22:25):
You say, if I break up with somebody right right,
me as the boyfriend of the person, Well, yeah, well, if.
Speaker 3 (22:31):
It's like a mutual you know, if it's a mutual ending,
and then you're just like, hey, dude, do you tell
the person that we're gonna unfollow each other?
Speaker 2 (22:37):
Do you block them?
Speaker 1 (22:39):
Maybe a mute? It depends. I guess it depends on
the terms of the breakup, all right. If it's a
good breakup, maybe you don't do anything.
Speaker 2 (22:44):
The situation I'm in right now.
Speaker 3 (22:47):
About a month ago, you know, uh, devastating news happened
when Justin Fields was traded from the Bears or Steelers.
And I have never on finre followed like a sports
athletes when they play for my team, you know what
I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (23:07):
So you're asking about this because you followed an athlete
who doesn't play for your team anymore.
Speaker 3 (23:12):
And it's like a relation because I ipposed to I
genuinely loved Justin Fields, like I thought he was going
to be the Bears quarterback for the longest time.
Speaker 2 (23:23):
And this is the alert came. You know, he got
traded for pennies.
Speaker 3 (23:29):
And I want to unfollow him, but I because I
don't want to see him, uh you know, well, like
at the same time, I need to I need to
keep knowing what's going on with him and and and
I want to see him succeed, but I don't.
Speaker 2 (23:45):
I don't want to, you know, because he doesn't play
with my team anymore.
Speaker 7 (23:49):
Exactly.
Speaker 3 (23:50):
I have never honestly boken it up with a an
athlete in Chicago, like I still follow Derrick Rose because
I love him, buy it and I look Chris Bryan,
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (24:02):
I actually spoke to Justin Field's former quarterback of the
Chicago Bears, and he told me that he would be
devastated if if as part of him leaving town, if
you were to unfollow him, that would be the ultimate
sort of that really would would set the whole thing over.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
Well, you're forgetting how he told us he was breaking
up with us by on following us.
Speaker 1 (24:19):
Yeah, he unfollowed this China and he was like I
don't want to see football on my timeline.
Speaker 2 (24:23):
You're lying. You know they broke up with him, they
dumped they dumped him.
Speaker 3 (24:27):
Can you tell him to actually follow me first.
Speaker 2 (24:31):
To know?
Speaker 1 (24:32):
It will be very difficult for him to know if
you followed him, because he doesn't know already.
Speaker 3 (24:37):
Never unfollowed an athlete that played for my team, like
they created and but I you know, I get so
invested in their lives and they play for my team
and then they leave, Oh my god, but I want
I always want them to succeed, unless they're playing for
a rival. I did unfollow Wilson Conjurius because he plays
with the Cardinals.
Speaker 2 (24:55):
Now, okay, but.
Speaker 1 (24:58):
I thought I was an overthinker this sitting around talking
about breaking up with someone who's never met him.
Speaker 3 (25:02):
And it's also the fact you said, like Justin Fields
didn't want to talk about football anymore. But now that's
all he's I mean, that's all he's doing now. He
just posted he just posted the skyline of Pittsburgh. I'm like,
I can't see this.
Speaker 2 (25:13):
He hurts you, Yes, he's out with a new has
what I need to see.
Speaker 1 (25:18):
I think it's affecting you negatively. And I think you
need to unfollow or at least mute.
Speaker 2 (25:23):
At least mute mute, then he can't see what's going.
Speaker 1 (25:26):
On, right, But I mean at least unfollowing is not
unfollowing his final unfollowing is a I mean, not that
you can't refollow, but unfollowing is it? That's a yeah.
I mean you're you're making a statement about what you
think about. Some muting is just I can't handle it
right now, Okay, but I could grow to handle it again.
Speaker 2 (25:44):
Okay, it's a little less a little less severe.
Speaker 3 (25:47):
Because I'm gonna end up seeing it like whatever Sports Center,
ESPN they're going to post.
Speaker 1 (25:51):
You're not going to be able to hide from your
ex boyfriend forever. You know you can't do it. You're
going to see him out with other people.
Speaker 7 (25:56):
I'm standing on this.
Speaker 10 (25:57):
Sports are so gay.
Speaker 7 (26:02):
Y'all need to admit it.
Speaker 2 (26:04):
Yeah, each other. I mean the way that he's making it. Yeah,
I just can't break up with them. I can't.
Speaker 4 (26:10):
The pants, the outfits, the costumes.
Speaker 2 (26:14):
He's stratasizing over a man he's never met. He's on
the phone that one time though, he's not sure if
he can look at this man's anymore. You're right. Jason
