are you? I'm good?
Speaker 3 (00:10):
How are you?
Speaker 2 (00:10):
We're doing great?
Speaker 1 (00:11):
So of course this is waiting met a phone where
we're trying to figure out if you had been ghosted
by this guy named Alex. We got to know everything though,
tell us how you met, about any dates that you've
been on, and where things are now.
Speaker 4 (00:22):
Okay, So I met him at a beer line at
a baseball game, and like I asked for his or
he asked me for my number, and like a week
later we went out to dinner and like he was
actually cuter, like at dinner than he was in the line.
So and I thought, like it was a good time.
I don't know. I like he's ghosting and I don't
(00:45):
know why. So I feel like I need some help.
Speaker 1 (00:47):
It's the baseball hat sunglasses thing. See, if you go
to a baseball game, you know somebody guy, girl might
be wearing sunglasses, might be wearing a hat, and that
can really throw things off because there are people that
are not that attractive that look very attractive in a hat,
and then there are people but right, but in this case,
you're saying, you know, maybe he was outfitted for the game,
but then in person again the second time, like when
(01:09):
he was ready for a date, he was even more attractive.
You're saying, yeah, okay, that's a good sign. Except for
whatever reason, after this date, he has not reached out
to you. Have you called him or texted him, tried
to get a hold of him.
Speaker 4 (01:20):
Yeah, I tried, and I don't know. I don't know
what's up. I'm you know, persistent, but not like crazy
Stockery don't right now, you don't know.
Speaker 1 (01:28):
We don't want crazy Stocker right now. All right, Well,
let's see if we can get this guy Alex on
the phone. You'll be on the phone at the same time.
We'll ask these questions for you, and hopefully we can
figure out what's going on and then set you guys
up on another date that we pay for. Okay, okay,
we're gonna find out what's up. Part two off waiting
by the phone after post Belone and Morgan Wall.
Speaker 2 (01:45):

five minutes.

Speaker 2 (01:56):
Hey, Daisy, all right, welcome back. Let's call Alex.
Speaker 1 (02:00):
You guys met at a baseball game, exchange numbers, did
all that stuff whatever, and wound up going on another date.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
He was better looking the second time. You were way
into this.
Speaker 1 (02:10):
He thought the date went really well, except since that
date you haven't heard from him and he hasn't responded
to you. You think you're being ghost and you want
to know why exactly. All right, let's call him now.
Good luck, Daisy, Okay, thank you. Hello, Hi, sus Alex. Yeah,
(02:33):
this is Alex.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
Good morning. My name is Fred.
Speaker 1 (02:35):
I'm calling from the Fred Show, the morning radio show,
and I have to tell you that we are on
the radio right now, and I do need your permission
to continue with the call. Can we chat for just
a second on the show.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
Yeah, yeah, I guess sure, yes, Yeah, yeah, I guess
that's a yes. I'll take that, yess. So we're calling.
Speaker 1 (02:50):
We have a woman named Daisy who I guess you
met her in a baseball game and you guys recently
went out.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
Do you remember Daisy? Uh huh, yeah, I do. Okay,
So what happened with Herbie?
Speaker 1 (03:00):
Because she called us and told us that she thought
you were good looking and thought the day went well
and I was hoping to see you again. But apparently she
hasn't heard from you. So what's your side of the story.
Are you ghosting her on purpose? It looks like.
Speaker 5 (03:12):
I'm not calling Daisy back, because I mean she was
a major pain in the ass. I mean, we sat
down at the restaurant, she looks at the menu and
you know, immediately said I can't eat anything here, and
you know, she was you know, I mean, I don't know,
(03:33):
I was shocked, but I mean I felt bad. So
I mean I asked her if she wanted to, you know,
kind of walk to another spot close by, and then
we did. And then as soon as you know, they
walked in, she saw what kind of food it was
and she said she didn't feel like Mexican, and I
mean and so then we try, you know, one more spot,
(03:53):
the third spot of the night, and you know, she
finally agrees to sit down, you know, and I mean,
like I'm starting, you know, I mean, I was so
hungry that I was literally about to pass out. I mean,
I was getting faint, you know, and she finally you know,
found something to order, but made so many changes and
modifications that it felt like it took over twenty minutes.
(04:16):
I mean, I can't believe, you know, she didn't know
you know why I was ghostinger. Okay, so you're supposed
to put your best foot forward on a first date.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
Well, now let me ask you did you? Did you, Alex?
Did you tell Daisy where you were going? Initially? I
mean you must have because you met right, you met there,
so you must have told her where to start.
Speaker 5 (04:35):
Yeah. Yeah, I mean she didn't really you know, react
or anything.
Speaker 2 (04:38):
She was just like, yeah, okay.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
Because I guess if you know you're a picky eater
and you know there are only certain places that you eat,
then if someone says, hey, let's go here, then you
might suggest, well, I don't have a dietary restriction or
some issue, let's and then suggest another place to go
so that you don't wind up doing this thing where
you go to three different places and whatever. Well, I
bring up days and though I forgot to mention the
(05:01):
Daisy is here, Daisy, what was up with the three
different restaurants? You know, it does come off a little
high maintenance. Not that you intended to, but I mean,
you know, you probably could have said from the beginning, Hey,
I really could only eat this and that, so how
about this place instead?
Speaker 2 (05:17):
Right? That's annoying.
Speaker 4 (05:19):
Well, it's like I don't I don't know. I guess
some people like looked look online at menus.
Speaker 6 (05:25):
I don't really do that.
Speaker 4 (05:26):
I just show up and I look at the menu.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
So like, I went there, I saw the menu and.
Speaker 4 (05:32):
I didn't like it, So why would I force myself
to eat something I don't like? Like, we pay for
food there, we should get what we want, So I
don't the problem.
Speaker 2 (05:40):
So you knew, but you knew you were going there.
Speaker 1 (05:43):
So if you knew that you weren't going to like stuff,
or there's a chance that you wouldn't like it, then
why not look at the menu ahead of time?
Speaker 2 (05:49):
I guess. And then if you see that and you're like, ah,
I'm not going to I mean I.
Speaker 4 (05:53):
Didn't know I wasn't going to like it until I
got there, so like I didn't predict that there was
going to be a point that I.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
Like it, And they didn't like the second place either.
The second place wasn't okay. I'm just checking.
Speaker 4 (06:04):
Yeah, I mean, what you really have to be in
the mood for Mexican food, I feel like, and I
wasn't in the mood.
Speaker 1 (06:10):
So then the third place was kind of only okay
because you right, okay, huh can you see how this
comes off? This does come off a little bit high maintenance.
If you have every right to say I don't want
to eat here, I don't like this place or whatever.
But again, if you know that you are picky, and
you already know that there are a lot of places
where you're not going to like or not be in
(06:31):
the mood for, then don't don't you then just take
the lead and suggest a place so that you don't
wind up doing this.
Speaker 4 (06:36):
Yeah, but he suggested a.
Speaker 3 (06:38):
Place, so like I just said yes, So I don't
There wasn't really like an opportunity for me to be like.
It wasn't like I was the one picking the restaurant,
like if I was picking the restaurant, or pick the restaurant,
but he was picking the restaurant.
Speaker 2 (06:51):
So like, Okay, I said, Okay, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
So what if Daisy had said, you say, we're going
to this place, and and you know she had said
I don't I don't like sushi or something or whatever
it was. Would you have been with you would have
preferred that she had just spoken up.
Speaker 5 (07:07):
Yeah, you know what I mean, like, hey, everybody's got opinions.
You know, I'm not gonna, you know, throw on her
under the bunch. She goes, yeah, you know, I don't
like sushi or whatever. But at the same time, for
goodness sakes, you know, like you know, you can eat
some chips and salsa, or you know, some chips and block.
Speaker 2 (07:23):
I mean, unless you don't like either of those. You know,
it's like I pick something, Yeah, pick something. I'm with him,
block her, block her.
Speaker 6 (07:31):
Yeah, It's like, who has time to be going to
three different restaurants. It's a first day. If you didn't
like the first spot, okay, I mean even that, to me,
that's a lot to leave.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
But then the second spot.
Speaker 6 (07:41):
You don't think like your spidey senses, don't say maybe
I should google the menu before we go to another spot. No,
you go to another spot and then you don't like
that either. I can't stand a picky eat. I'm not
gonna lie.
Speaker 2 (07:52):
Because if I burnt it out.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
No, there's a good chance that I don't like anything
at a lot of places. Then I think that's something
I'm gonna get ahead of, right so that this doesn't happen.
Speaker 2 (08:01):
But hey, you know that's she didn't.
Speaker 1 (08:04):
And Alex, you're saying you don't want to deal with this,
like not even not even if you guys agree to
another spot ahead of time and we pay for it,
you won't consider it.
Speaker 4 (08:12):
Nah.
Speaker 5 (08:13):
I mean, I'm sorry, you know, I gotta say no.
You know, Daisy's you know you're not a bad girl,
but I mean, you know, come on, I guess you.
Speaker 4 (08:22):
Just can't handle a strong independent woman girl.
Speaker 2 (08:26):
Oh that's what this is.
Speaker 1 (08:27):
Oh okay, all right, all right, I guess you can't, Alex.
You can't a strong independent woman who doesn't like chip, squacamole, bread,
meat chick, she has like sugar, she's like lactose intolerance.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
She anyway, Gosh, girls, I wish you the best, both
of you. Thank you for your time, Alex and Daisy.
