Speaker 1 (00:00):
The Fred Show is on. Good Morning everybody. Thank you
so much for having us on. Hello, Caitlin, Hi, Jason Brown, Hi,
Rupiah Hiki. I want to get to this release to
Jason in a little bit. But I found this list
and it resonated with me because the interim, benham Me

(00:21):
not Benjamin, was just talking about how being camp counselor
it was like one of the best jobs you ever had.

Speaker 2 (00:26):
I mean he was I don't know if he was honor.

Speaker 1 (00:27):
Off the air, but he was just gushing about about it.
And in retrospect, I wish I liked camp. I wish
I didn't have deep attachment issues. I wish I had
liked camp. And then I wish I had gone back
as a counselor because my life would have been different forever,
just completely did. Because when you went to summer camp,
you could assume a completely different identity, you know, Like
I went to the same school from kindergarten through twelfth grade,

(00:49):
so I was who I was. There was no changing that, like,
like whatever, whatever, and I wish with the same people.
It was this little private school and it was the
same people, so like, but then when you went to
summer camp or you went on vacation or whatever, like
you then assume you got it made a new impression
on people. So I was kind of like middle of
the road in high school. And in school, I mean
I think I wasn't the most popular, wasn't the least popular.

(01:10):
But then you know, who knows, You go to summer
camp and all of a sudden, you're like hooking up
with these hot hicks or whatever. I mean, that was
all I think they were doing camp my camp counselors,
because they put us to bed at nine o'clock or whatever,
and then it was like a counselor house up on
the top of the hill, and god knows what was
going on in there. If only they had the internet
back then, and people were making videos that would have
been an app that would have been on porn Hub.

Speaker 2 (01:31):
For sure.

Speaker 1 (01:32):
I swear they were all up there drinking and doing
each other. I'm sure about it. Camp counselor is the
best gig. But this was a list of the best
summer jobs for teenagers. Camp counselor number one babysitting, they
said his number two. I think the best babysitting gig
is more like the nanny and gig like if you
babies of a rich family and they go on vacations
and stuff, you get to go within them a tutor.

Speaker 2 (01:54):
Tutoring is it?

Speaker 1 (01:55):
I guess you can get paid dog walking. This is
for high schoolers landscaping.

Speaker 2 (02:00):
I guess.

Speaker 1 (02:00):
I've seen some kids on TikTok that have a little
landscape hustle going and.

Speaker 2 (02:04):
They make more in an afternoon than I make in
a week.

Speaker 3 (02:06):
So it's easy money.

Speaker 4 (02:08):
Yes.

Speaker 2 (02:09):
But it comes back to what you.

Speaker 1 (02:10):
Were talking about the other day, Jason, about how your
service industry your life is a service industry worker.

Speaker 2 (02:15):
Yeah, has conditioned you. Yeah, it really has.

Speaker 1 (02:18):
Like it like it bothers and I feel the same
way about like clothing retail.

Speaker 2 (02:23):
But what is it for you? Like it's ingrained in
you because that's what you did before you got into radio. Yeah.

Speaker 5 (02:28):
So my one of my first jobs was at a
bar and I was a buser, I was a server,
I was a bartender, I was a manager. I worked
there for like twelve years, and so as a server
and a bartender, I guess like I always have to
have like something to take notes with around me. Like
my biggest fear was like walking up to a table
and be like oh, what can I get you? And
I don't have a patent, and like that was always like,
oh then you're like scrambling, you look like an idiot

(02:49):
and so and I also can't remember, like I don't
get the servers that can like remember your order right,
like because I.

Speaker 1 (02:56):
Have the worst memory. So they never people get more money,
like more tips. You get more tips if you memorize
someone's order instead of writing it down.

Speaker 2 (03:02):
But I could.

Speaker 5 (03:03):
I'm not that guy. I can't memorize anything. Nope, yeah,
I could not do that. I wrote every single thing.
They were like, oh, I have two pepsis. I like
two pepsis. I like write it down to me because
I was so weird. And also like I feel like
you're always carrying like hot plates, like I can touch
really hot things and like carry it around. I feel
like my like whatever heat your cat, you are gone

(03:24):
in my hands. Yeah, but that's sort of affected me forever.

Speaker 1 (03:26):
So it could be your job then, at your job now,
But I want to know eight five five five nine
one one three five is I can call the fred Shia.

Speaker 2 (03:32):
You can text the same number, like what for me?

Speaker 1 (03:34):
For example, I worked in retail until radio all through
college I worked in retail, and for me, it's like
I to this day won't touch stuff that's on display.
Kind of like I worked at a tobacco store and
I had to I had to organize all of the cigars,
and the huge human would make them all neat and
perfect and stocked in the whole thing. And I would
do that, and then you know, the store closed at nine,

(03:55):
at eight forty five, some day would come in and
touch everything. The same with the clothing was though, because clothing,
you know, you get the section perfect and then somebody
would come in and they'd start rifling through the stack
that you just fixed in order to get the one
on the bottom. And just like so now to this day,
if I go to a clothing store and someone's helping me,
I'm just like, hey, I'm looking for a thirty four,

(04:17):
Like can you just you know, you get it for me?
Because and they're always grateful too, because they know what
I know, which is that I'm gonna screw it up.

Speaker 2 (04:27):
There's an easy way to get stuff out of.

Speaker 1 (04:29):
The stack that doesn't disturb the whole stack, and there's
a hard there's a hard way, and I and most people,
I think, take the hard way, they just go plump, right,
And so why you guys screw up the whole stack
when we can only screw up one thing that's my thing?
What is it for? I mean, like you guys were
in food service, A lot of people in here did
different stuff. Are you conditioned rufio? Is there anything that
like you worked at McDonald's for a long time and

(04:50):
you weren'd in KFC I did.

Speaker 2 (04:52):
Is there anything that you're conditioned to? It really makes
you a people person.

Speaker 3 (04:55):
Like you you talk to everybody and everyone either either
happy like no man, what it is to be the
happiest perst of the world.

Speaker 2 (05:02):
It could be the meanest perst of the world and
you just have to have It brings you out of
your shop for sure. Yeah, like you're forced to talk
to talk to people, for sure.

Speaker 1 (05:08):
We think it would make you hate people to a
certain extent because I mean, you see a side of
people I don't know, when they order all their food,
they eat all their food, and then they come back
and say this food sucked. I want to refund. And
you're like, you're looking at him and you're going, it's
not my money, it's not my food. But you're a
lying ass liar, like you're scamming me right now. Like
I remember, you know, my very dramatic story about being
scammed at Blockbuster, and to this day it drives me crazy.

(05:31):
And it wasn't my money, and it wasn't my credit
and it wasn't my stuff. But I had as a
sixteen year old, I'm looking at this grown ass woman going,
you are lying to a child right now over fifty dollars.
And the thing was at the time, I remember my
district manager was like, just give her her money back.

Speaker 2 (05:49):
It's not worth it. It's just and I'm like, what
do you mean it's not worth it?

Speaker 1 (05:52):
Like I know this is wrong, and I'm the kid,
and she knows it's wrong too, and somehow, so I
don't know, I could see it on the other way
where you begin to kind of despise people.

Speaker 5 (06:02):
Yeah, I think it also means you a good customer too,
Like Mike and I get into this all the time,
like I won't if a restaurant is closing within an hour,
I do not go because I understand what the last
hour of your shift, You're going everything for closing, You're
putting everything away, you're combining stuff like whatever. If they're
like no, Michae'll be like, oh, well, no, they're open
another I'm like, no, you don't understand. You've never worked
in a restaurant. The last hour is like we're cleaning

(06:24):
so that when night o'clock hits, we're out the door.

Speaker 2 (06:26):
What is it for you?

Speaker 6 (06:27):
It made me a people pleaser, so, like I worked
at KFC, I was a manager, and I just I
did not like people leaving the store dissatisfied.

Speaker 2 (06:36):
So it carried over to my real life where like
I want.

Speaker 6 (06:39):
To make everybody happy as much as possible and like
make you it just everything a joyous experience.

Speaker 2 (06:45):
So that's one thing.

Speaker 6 (06:46):
It's it like really made me a people pleaser, like
I have to I have to fix this, like I can.
I can fix I can give you more chicken. It's
just I guess I've begun to see it. Maybe it's
just a pessimist, but I began to see it the
other way where it's like I don't want to help
help you because you're you're scamming me, Like you you
think I'm stupid, you know what I mean. I took
it personally and it wasn't my stuff, you know, But

(07:08):
I'm looking at you going you think I believe this,
Like I know what you're doing, and you know what
you're doing, and I don't know. I began to like
really lose faith in humanity as a result of it.
And that was a long time ago. Somebody texted eight
five five five nine one three five. I won't touch
free standing free samples. Seeing gross hands that touch things. Uh,
snow plowing makes you hate everybody, especially old people. I've

(07:31):
been chased down the street with a broom for putting
my snow in her driveway.

Speaker 2 (07:37):
Let old people be cranky. A hardware store. Learned how
to fake knowledge in other people's projects and needs.

Speaker 1 (07:47):
Working in the hardware to part. Yeah, you were the
top tire salesman and in the region I.

Speaker 5 (07:53):
Worked at tires, I worked at hardware, like I had
no business doing any of them.

Speaker 1 (07:57):
You're a likable that's it comes down to being likely.
Hey Eddie, good morning, Good morning Eddie. You're so you're
one of these people. You're like Kiki. So you were
a bartender and it made you social. You went anti
social to social.

Speaker 7 (08:12):
Yeah, I was.

Speaker 8 (08:13):
I was very quiet. I was very anti social. I
didn't really know how to talk to people. For the
most part, people would walk over me. I was very uh,
I was very mouldible to what other people wanted to do.
And then I bartended, and within a couple of years
I kind of came out of my shell. I knew
how to talk to people. I was better with the
ladies at that point too, because I knew how to socialize.

(08:37):
I says, everything opened up for me. And then I
don't bartend anymore. But now when I go to a bar,
I pick up on things that I never would have
picked up on before. I could start conversations and have
like long conversations with random strangers about the simplest things,
and it just comes out of nowhere, and everybody thinks
we're best friends. And I'm like, nah, I'm just good
at doing this.

Speaker 1 (08:55):
South all right, So Eddie went the other way. You
became a better human for dealing with people.

Speaker 2 (08:59):
I think.

Speaker 1 (08:59):
So sometimes you see people like flight attendants, for example,
I feel like people are at their very worst when
they're traveling, and I think I would get so tired
of society as a flight attendant, because I'm like, you know,
I don't know the stuff that you see people do.
I believe that you're probably a decent person. But know
that bag is not going to fit in the overhead bit.
I don't care if you say it fit on the

(09:20):
way down. It doesn't fit. It's not the same airplane,
and you don't own it.

Speaker 2 (09:24):
I don't know. Look at me. I'm getting frustrated now.
Thank you, Eddie, have a good day.

Speaker 1 (09:30):
Let me see, working in retail makes talking to those
combative people or angry people easier. Definitely brings you out
of your shell. Works at Jewel. Somebody else talking about
working at a grocery store in the South called Harris Teeter.
It's the same deal as a former Target employee. I
see a shelf for an as'll all messed up, and
sometimes I'll fix it because.

Speaker 2 (09:48):
I know how annoying that can be. Yeah, that's what
I'm saying.

Speaker 1 (09:51):
Like, if you were the guy that for years had
to fix all that and then you see how messed
up it is, it's like, oh, it never leaves you.
I worked in restaurants for you is another text. And
one time I went out with my friend and we
were the last table in the whole place, and I
was like, Okay, let's go so they can go home.
My friend refused to leave because they were open for
twenty more minutes.

Speaker 2 (10:10):
I was so mad.

Speaker 1 (10:12):
I'm a service writer for a dealership, and I've lost
faith in people's common sense.

Speaker 2 (10:17):
I believe that. I believe that. Hey Amanda, good morning,
good morning.

Speaker 9 (10:22):
Hi.

Speaker 2 (10:22):
So you are a current retail manager.

Speaker 10 (10:25):
Yes, I am over the style department.

Speaker 2 (10:28):
Okay, and so how has it changed you?

Speaker 11 (10:32):
So every time I go into the sitting room, I
make sure I hang up my clothes, I put it
on the brag make sure.

Speaker 8 (10:37):
It's you know, correctly on the hangar.

Speaker 10 (10:39):
Never leave anything in the floor.

Speaker 1 (10:41):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I mean again, And why you wouldn't
do that unless you had once been the person who
had to fix all that?

Speaker 2 (10:49):
Absolutely? Yeah, thank you, Amanda, have a great day.

Speaker 8 (10:53):
Thank you too.

Speaker 1 (10:54):
Glad you called. Hey Jen, good morning, good morning. See Jen,
you worked at Jewel grocery store. And a lot of
these people are saying that it changed you for the better.

Speaker 2 (11:04):
Definitely in what way?

Speaker 11 (11:06):
Definitely? It's it's easier to talk to people, and you
kind of understand just you know, give them to the year,
you know whatever, just because it's the fake that easier
to deal with them.

Speaker 2 (11:17):
Maybe I'm just a horrible person. I don't know.

Speaker 1 (11:20):
But I didn't.

Speaker 2 (11:21):
I don't know. I just I did.

Speaker 1 (11:22):
You're saying it gives you faith in people. It did
not give me faith in humanity to watch people.

Speaker 2 (11:27):
I don't know. Thank you, Jen, have a good day.

Speaker 6 (11:31):
Thank you.

Speaker 2 (11:33):
I I just didn't hate Juane. How you doing, OK?

Speaker 10 (11:37):
Brad, I am a thirteen.

Speaker 2 (11:40):
Thanks for taking my car? Oh my god, you made
yeah take it away both my kids.

Speaker 10 (11:49):
You a lot of caffeine already this morning.

Speaker 2 (11:51):
God bless you. I'm working on it. God.

Speaker 10 (11:55):
I made both my kids go into service industry when
they were young. I thought it hot them great things
happen to be social, how.

Speaker 2 (12:02):
To talk to its ally.

Speaker 10 (12:04):
Kids are afraid to talk to doll you know.

Speaker 2 (12:06):
Yeah.

Speaker 10 (12:06):
Yeah, And that people knew that they're so situational like
they just need help with.

Speaker 2 (12:11):
Their help is better. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (12:14):
I think you you got to do service industry growing
up or retail or both. You have to do one
or the other in my opinion, because it's the same thing.
You know, you learn about people, you learn about dealing
with difficult people, You see how rude people can be,
and I think it changes your perspective about how you
treat other people. And again, but as Jason and the
rest of us. We're all conditioned for life as a
result of it. June, thank you for listening. Have a

(12:35):
great day.

Speaker 9 (12:37):
Thank you.

Speaker 6 (12:38):
Thanks guys.

Speaker 7 (12:38):
I love you.

Speaker 1 (12:39):
Yeah, I love you too. I look at all these people, man,
all these people texting me. It's the same kind of
thing I work for. Sherman Williams, and I hate talking
to people about colors. I wouldn't believe you. There's so
many colors too, right, how many whites? It's like seven
thousand whites. I'm like, I don't know. And then whatever

(13:00):
Caitlin's entertainment report, he's on the Thread show.

Speaker 2 (13:03):
Well, I'll be damned.

Speaker 4 (13:04):
Bronnie James was drafted by the Lakers with the fifty
fifth overall pick in the NBA Draft yesterday after going
unselected in the first round. If he and his dad
take the court together, it will be the first time
in NBA history a father and son have played together.
Lebron Remember was selected number one overall pick in two
thousand and three, but Bronnie only had one really underwhelming

(13:25):
freshman season at usc which is why he was drafted later. Remember,
Bronnie also collapsed on July twenty fifth after suffering cardiac
arrest ing practice. He was hospitalized and in stable condition
before being discharged three days later. But the health scare
really set back what was supposed to be a ramp
up to his college season. He wasn't able to practice
until late November before suiting up in December to play

(13:48):
his first collegiate game. So all of that obviously comes
into play along with the pressure. But I mean, I
guess if anyone's good to mentor and train him, it's
his dad.

Speaker 2 (13:58):
He's very successful.

Speaker 4 (14:01):
But he better he better get up there and do well.

Speaker 3 (14:03):
Because my gosh, I was watching, so I watched it
like live when it happened. You, oh my goodness. ESPN
was just like kissing Lebron's But the whole time, it
was like, oh, it's so amazing to watch this amazing
moment happen. Because this I feel like it was the
first time they ever put on TV the second round
of the draft. They never put it on TV. Oh

(14:24):
so so he yeah, obviously, like they knew it was
going to happen, so they did a whole thing about
the second round of the draft. Like nobody cares about
the second round of the NBA Draft.

Speaker 2 (14:33):
How do you know it was on that and if
they don't usually do it, you just were was just
the channels.

Speaker 3 (14:37):
It was like, oh, they're actually showing this draft, which
is smart because it.

Speaker 2 (14:41):
Is a moment. It is a moment. It'll be the.

Speaker 3 (14:44):
First time a father son duo in the NBA plays together,
which which cool, which is shows Lebron's longevity, which is amazing.
But and then they were like, I don't even want
to hear about nepotism.

Speaker 2 (14:54):
I was like, you don't want to hear about it.
It's like, well, they've made a point.

Speaker 3 (15:00):
Is kind of rampant in the league, especially from like
the owners, Like the owners will hire their son as
a GM you know what I'm saying, and do this,
and like they keep it in the family business.

Speaker 2 (15:08):
But like it's definitely nepotism.

Speaker 3 (15:11):
Like I understand Bronnie didn't have he went through all that,
you know, health struggle and everything like that, but like
if he doesn't, if he's not Lebron's son, he doesn't
get drafted at all.

Speaker 4 (15:23):
In I don't understand though, the nepotism conversation, just because
like if that was your son, you're helping your son,
Like who's gonna say no? You know what I mean.
Like even in Hollywood, it's like, if I can help
my kids, I'm going to help my kids. And people
can be bitter about it, but you would do the
same thing if you were in that situation. I personally, though,
wouldn't put this kind of pressure on my kid. I

(15:45):
do think if you're in college and you're playing, you know,
I would like for him to have that experience.

Speaker 9 (15:50):
So it is what it is. I am.

Speaker 4 (15:51):
I am not Lebron, I am not an NBA player.
I I just missed the height requirement. But yeah, so
I don't really have a dog in the sun.

Speaker 2 (16:00):
But I mean, come out.

Speaker 4 (16:01):
Of course he's gonna do that. And this is again
I'm so sorry Jason Brown. But another short story. A
federal jury decided against the NFL yesterday, ordering the league
to pay just under five billion in damages for artificially
inflating the price of Sunday ticket and this decision, after
a month long trial with the class action lawsuit, could

(16:21):
could change the way fans watched football. The jury now
awarded four point seven billion to a group of plaintiffs
that bought the Sunday ticket package offered by DirecTV and
ninety six million to a separate group of bar owners.
Damages in cases like this, though, can be tripled by law,
so the league could be on the hook for more
than fourteen billion dollars, which would go to these disgruntled subscribers.

(16:45):
The NFL immediately said they planned to appeal by the way,
but these people are gonna get paid. I mean, obviously
it's going to be spread between a ton of different people.

Speaker 2 (16:53):
But they sued and they won.

Speaker 4 (16:56):
We'll see what happens if they overturn it though. Mech
The Stallion is set to open in Sunday's BET Awards

Tragi p Henson is hosting an Usher is going to
receive the Lifetime Achievement be Et Award. Drake leads the
field with seven award nominations and Nicki Minaj is behind
him with three and a dude named Jared Sanders, who

(17:33):
goes by dz rides on TikTok, was at six Flags
over Georgia and blown away by the park's food choices,
so he headed to this place called Piedmont Primos Pizza
Ria for a slice of pizza. He noticed that a
slice one slice of cheese pizza is seventeen bucks, Holy cow,
and a slice of pepperoni is eighteen He calls the

(17:56):
prices diabolical, so do I. The plain pizza does come
with a choice of chips, salad or garlic knocks for
the sign, but it also comes with an added charge
on top of the already high charge. So there's a
one dollar thirty searchars surcharge. I don't know what they're doing.
And then obviously tax and everything. Basically everything is really

(18:19):
freaking expensive. Did they cover that in the debate last night?
Because I couldn't know they covered their golf scores. I'm like,
we are in trouble, right.

Speaker 7 (18:29):
I tried to.

Speaker 4 (18:29):
Watch and it makes me really depressed.

Speaker 2 (18:31):
Yeah, So I was like, I don't know.

Speaker 4 (18:32):
I already know both of these gentlemen, so I don't
know if I can handle this.

Speaker 3 (18:36):
First five minutes, I was like, this we are we
are screwed. I couldn't even watch the whole thing. And
then they got into the golf.

Speaker 4 (18:44):
I was like, all right, guys, this is so they
say they're handicaps.

Speaker 3 (18:48):
Yeah, he's like eight, and then you know they're like whatever.
God in the club championship every year.

Speaker 2 (18:53):

everybody's handicap.

documentaries that it's a major red flag and calen and
I love them and I watched them.

Speaker 2 (19:39):
Helps me down.

me down per se, but I mean I can't get
enough true crime. Everything I watched true crime, anything all
the time. Who's the killer? Oh no, kill her, this killer,

Speaker 9 (20:01):
What was it?

Speaker 1 (20:02):
The you guys?

Speaker 4 (20:03):
Well, I want to study that said like, that means
it's a really bad sign because it means you're.

Speaker 6 (20:07):
Like used to chaos, which is high true.

Speaker 2 (20:10):
But I don't remember which serial killer I was watching?
Who Lives by You?

Speaker 7 (20:17):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (20:19):
So this doctor explained that people often discuss their love
of true crime in therapy, and many find it normal
and familiar. She went on, some of us grew up
in high stress situations, so people mistake peace for boring,
and it's like to come home to yourself, you have
to lean into discomfort because it's going to feel unfamiliar.

Speaker 2 (20:39):
So I guess that's why you watch it. Yeah, I'm
not used to peace. So yeah, I don't know. I
don't know about that.

Speaker 1 (20:49):
I'm sorry here, Yeah I know, But apparently that's why
it's a red I'm going through this article right now.
That's why it's a red flag because it means that
you're used to you know, I don't know, just in
your life, and then so I don't. But I'm not
though I had a kind of healthy upbringing sort of
not really, but I mean a little kind of.

Speaker 2 (21:10):
I mean, that's not why I watched it. I don't
know why it was.

Speaker 12 (21:12):
But you laughed when your parents said you're getting divorced,
so like, well, that's true. But does that make me
a psycho? Pand I only it makes me a psycho? Pa, No,
I didn't other things make me Yeah, no, I really
don't know where the obsession came from. And the other
thing is I already know that the formula, like the Dateline.
I can watch the first eight minutes of date Line,
maybe not even eight, sometimes only five, and I already

(21:34):
know what's going to happen at the end.

Speaker 2 (21:35):
I already know. I know all the tricks. I've watched
so many of them. It's just says a formula, and
they got it down.

Speaker 1 (21:40):
And the two hour ones drive me crazy because I'm like,
this is not going to take two hours. I promise
you that you know, because yes, oh yeah, sometimes it's
a special new two hour date Line Friday, it's whatever.
And then I think, is well, in the first twenty
minutes of the second hour. They just recapped the first hour.

Speaker 2 (21:57):
I'm like, we didn't need all the part ones and
part twos.

Speaker 1 (22:00):
Yes, anyway, so that's why I guess that makes sense though.
But me, I go home to silence and peace and
it's fine, you know what I mean, Like, I enjoy it.
I savor the peace in the quiet. I effect, the
more quite, the better I have to leave in here.

Speaker 2 (22:15):
God, you hear your own thoughts, like, and you like
that well honestly, like, yeah, I guess, I guess I do. Yeah,
I did. So you need you need like volume and
noise all the time, all the time.

Speaker 4 (22:26):
There's either music, podcast, TV, I'm talking to someone.

Speaker 2 (22:30):
Wow, I can't. I can't. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (22:33):
I feel like I don't recharge unless I'm actually not
doing anything. Like like the idea of recharging while you've
got the thing on, you know what I mean? Like
imagine recharging your you know, appliance while it's on. It
ain't gonna work. No, I need silence to recharge.

Speaker 2 (22:47):
I'm the introvert, extrovert thing, you think, Yeah, I think so.
I know, I just psychopathic, that's true. I don't need
an article for that. Doctor says it right here.

Speaker 7 (22:56):
The Fred Show is on friend's fun fact.

Speaker 1 (23:08):
Yes, guys, a jockey won a horse race while dead.
What Yeah, so it's having In nineteen twenty three, a
jockey named Frank Hay's rip. He took off on his
horse Sweet Kiss at Belmont in Long Island.

Speaker 2 (23:28):
Mid race.

Speaker 1 (23:29):
He suffered a heart attack and he died, but his
body stayed in the saddle as Sweet Kiss crossed the
finish line and won the race. So even though he
was dead, I'm not laughing about him being dead. It's
not funny that he's dead. Even though he was dead,
he's still a winner and a history maker. What I
want to know is how a dead body stayed on

(23:50):
that thing, on that horse, because it looks like they
gripping with their legs to stay on the horse. You know,
if you watched a lot of horses. I don't watch
a lot of horse races, but like Kentucky Derby your
Way and then the only I gotta like whip the
thing to make it run fast and his dude's dead stretch, right.
I don't know, maybe the other horses, maybe the other
horses were dead. I don't know what happened. I don't

(24:12):
I mean, I don't know how they won this. I
don't I don't get it. But anyway, there's there's some
history for you right there. If you ever on I'm
trying to help you out of you ever go on Jeopardy.

Speaker 2 (24:20):
But yeah, dude, I don't think that.

Speaker 9 (24:25):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (24:25):
Well the dead dude won a race well dead and
his name is Frank, So there you go. I'm trying
to help more.

Speaker 7 (24:33):
Fread show next, He's got wait. Fread's show is on now.

Speaker 1 (24:44):
Lot of Money show, Good morning everybody. I have to say,
of course, I'll have everybody in the studio, my family.
But the nice things that you guys, d m U
S and and text us itself, they go way further
than the mean stuff. And what's funny is I'm figuring
out some of the mean stuff that people are texting us.

(25:05):
These people listen more, I think than the people who
like us. So oh yeah, whatever, it's all good. I mean,
like I said, I look back on the text. The
text is like your iPhone where we can look back
and see what people have been texting. And it's like
the people who are like this show sucks have been
saying this show sucks every day for two years. So
you're right, it still sucks, and it's not gonna get
much better. This is about we've peaked, you know, this

(25:27):
is it?

Speaker 9 (25:27):
So?

Speaker 1 (25:28):
But anyway, thank you for all the nice comments. I
got this one here. What does it say? This is
from Lauren. I don't really know where this is coming
from exactly. I must have said something, but she said,
I know it's easy to get wrapped up in the
numbers and logistics of the job and the business, but
please don't let it be lost that you guys are
doing things that can't be put into numbers. This goofy
nonsense it's going on in the morning is good for

(25:49):
the soul and started my day in such a positive way.

Speaker 2 (25:52):
So thanks for that.

Speaker 1 (25:53):
By the way, you suck. No, she didn't say no,
she didn't say that, but I mean stuff like that.
I we really appreciate that Allutimately, Uh, that's what we're
here to do, hopefully, is you know, even if it's bad,
just smile. Please, thank you.

Speaker 2 (26:07):
That's it.

Speaker 1 (26:09):
But not to say the impressions were bad. That was
the impressions are. I mean, honestly, we're gonna go on
the road with that. I mean, we can do We're
gonna do a tangent live where we just do impression
for two hours. Uh, and Kaylin does the most of them,
so that's gonna be mostly Caitlin.

Speaker 9 (26:24):
I'm exhausted already, thinking right, I will say, I don't
really know how to do multiple impressions, but even going
from doing myself to doing an impression is exhausting, Like, well,
doing myself is second hand.

Speaker 1 (26:38):
That second block that was just one after another. Man
doing myself is secondhand. I just I could imagine it's

(27:00):
very exhausting Klein to go from Shakira toa.

Speaker 2 (27:04):
I'm so tired, I'm gonna sleep all tonight.

Speaker 1 (27:07):
Well, just just know that you made you made one
person smile Kaylen and a couple angry. So all good.

Speaker 2 (27:12):
WOA, normal day
