How are you good morning, I'm good.
Speaker 1 (00:10):
How are you guys? We're doing great. Waiting by the
phone is what this is called. Of course, we're trying
to figure out what happened with this guy Noah, But
we got to know kind of everything. How did you meet?
Tell us about any dates that you've been on, and
where things are now. Yeah, so we.
Speaker 2 (00:22):
Met on one of the apps, pretty standard, you know,
we sorted a little bit, and then he kind of
got straight to the point and asked me out to dinner,
which I loved that he was so direct. And then
our date went really, really well. He was a total gentleman,
gentleman honestly, like just absolutely wonderful and I absolutely want
to see him again. But then he stops responding like
(00:44):
a little bit after our date, like two days after
our date, and I genuinely don't know what happened.
Speaker 1 (00:49):
Huh okay, So again I always always ask, you know,
let's a little self awareness here. Everything really went well,
Like you you don't think back on the date and say, ah, man,
there was this one weird part or one thing where
things may have been derailed. I mean, you honestly left
the date thinking I'm gonna hear from Noah. We're gonna
go out again. We're onto something here. Yeah, it was wonderful.
(01:10):
All right, I got to ask the question I just
got in total fairness show. I want to make sure
full transparency, like you were super into this guy and
very disappointed not to hear from him.
Speaker 2 (01:19):
Yeah, absolutely, Okay, all.
Speaker 1 (01:21):
Right, well let's stop. I'm gonna play a song. We're
gonna come back, Ashton. We're gonna call Noah. See if
we can get him on the phone for you ask
these questions. You'll be on the phone too. At some point.

hope here is that we can straighten this out and
set you guys up on another date that we pay for.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
Sound good, good, thank you.
Speaker 1 (01:37):
Let's see what's up? Part two of Waiting by the
phone After a who year gonna be anur Iet radio
music festival in Las Vegas. We got trips on the
frend Show coming soon back in two minutes. The French
Show is on. Good Morning Ashton. Yeah, welcome back. Let's
call this guy Noah you met out one of the apps.
You got right to it. He asked you out. I
(01:58):
think that's a good way to go about things. Just
you know, you can't become penpals, right, You got to
get right to If we're gonna meet, let's meet. Let's
see if there's a connection. You felt like there was one,
and you were excited to see him again and see
where things went. Except you have not heard from him
since that date. You feel like you're being ghosted and
you want to know why. Yeah, okay, that's simple. Well
let's call him now. Good luck, Ashton, thank you? Hello?
(02:26):
Hi is this Noah? Yeah? There's no Hey, no a,
good morning. My name is Fred. I'm calling from the
Fred Show, the morning radio show. I do have to
tell you that we are on the radio right now.
I would need your permission to continue with the call.
Can which at for just a second? Do you mind? Yeah? Sure?
Speaker 2 (02:41):
Why not?
Speaker 1 (02:42):
Well? Thank you? Noah. We're calling on behalf of a
woman named Ashton. I guess you guys met recently and
went on a date. Do you remember going out with her?
I hope, yeah, I do. Okay, Well, she reached out
to us and was telling us about you. Liked you
a lot, thought there was a lot of potential between
the two of you, but says that she has not
heard from you, sends the date, and she feels like
you're ghosting her, and she kind of wants an explanation.
(03:05):
Well that kind of she wants an explanation. So what's
going on?
Speaker 3 (03:08):
H okay? Yeah, So Ashton was beautiful and I had
a great time up until the end, honestly, because after
dinner I was walking her do her car, and you know,
I saw a guy who was homeless and he had
a signed.
Speaker 1 (03:25):
And he was asking for money.
Speaker 3 (03:26):
So, you know, I grabbed a couple bucks and I
gave it to the guy and I kept walking, and
then like as we were walking away, she just went
on this huge rant about how I should never give
those people money because I use it to buy drugs. Anyways,
Oh yeah, and then she said, I bet the guy
(03:47):
wasn't even homeless and he probably had a BMW park
down the street. And I don't know that just really
like I was shocked that she felt this way, but
that she had like such a strong reaction to him
doing something that you know, like this guy was just
asking for money and I was just trying to help
out and it had nothing to do with there, So
(04:07):
that really turned me out.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
Wow, Okay, so I forgot to mention that the aston
is here, Ashton. What's up with the yeah, really opinionated
perspective on homeless people and why why can't he give
his own money to someone like that's his prerogative, it's
it's his it's his money, it's his you know, it's
his decisions to make. And that's very judgmental, by the way,
we don't know any of that.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
Okay, Well, I've just noticed time and time again so
many people who are scammers, and they'll even do it
like online. Like he looked, first of all fine. He
didn't look super rough for anything. He didn't look homeless
to me.
Speaker 1 (04:42):
Let me put it that way.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
Well, he didn't look rough, he didn't look dirty, he
looked fine. And I just seen that fair.
Speaker 1 (04:50):
That doesn't mean that he doesn't have in trouble, doesn't
mean he couldn't use some help, you know. I mean,
of course, there are different ways to help. You don't
necessarily have to get people money on the street. You
can do a lot of other things. But it's as
far as like what what my progative is with my
money and what makes me feel good or what makes
me feel like I'm helping someone. I mean, that's kind
of up to me, right, I Mean, it wasn't like
(05:11):
he took money out of your person, gave it to
someone without your permission, or that you didn't agree to.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
Yeah. I just found it really odd though, that he
felt so comfortable just like giving this guy money when
he doesn't know anything about what he's going to do
with the money, like if he's actually going to use
it to you know, get food or the room for
the night or whatever. I mean, like it was just.
Speaker 3 (05:27):
Really I just want to jump in here because like
it's just a couple of bucks, and like I don't
care if I was to get duped or something like that.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
To me, it's just it's a nice thing to do.
Speaker 3 (05:39):
And even if he was going to use it for
something else like whatever, I just wanted to help.
Speaker 1 (05:44):
The guy's got some compassion, Like isn't that attractive. I mean, again,
it's up to you how you want to spend your money,
but likewise, it's up to him how he wants to
spend his He wanted to try and help somebody out.
Why is that a bad thing.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
I just I stand by everything that I'm saying, But
I also think it's kind of dumb not to call
me back for that reason. Like that's such a.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
I don't I was gonna be I'm gonna be honest
with you, Ashon, Like you sound, you sound a little callous.
You sound you sound kind of cold. I mean, again,
you may not help people that way, but I don't
think that you thinking that he can't, or giving him
a lecture for helping people that way simply because of
some stereotype that may be true in a small percentage
(06:27):
of instances, or may not be true at all. I mean,
I don't think that's a reason not to help someone.
I definitely don't think it's a reason not to date someone.
I mean, if you were giving all of his money
away and you were paying his bills, I mean, that's
a whole different set of problems. But the guy gave
somebody a couple bucks trying to help him out, like
and and he got a lecture from you for that.
That's that's probably not the most attractive thing you could do. Okay,
(06:49):
Well it wasn't a lecture.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
It was just me venting my opinion, and I feel
like I'm entitled in my opinion.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
I mean, you are, but so is he. And he's
also entitled to see that as unattractive and think that
you don't have a lot of compassion. I mean, am
I right? No? Is that kind of how it came off?
Speaker 2 (07:03):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (07:03):
I mean that's how it felt to me. And look,
maybe I could have just said it straight up to you,
but I just didn't want to get into it and
start a whole thing because I'm not interested, and that
turned me off and that was.
Speaker 2 (07:15):
The end of story for me.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
I mean, that's the way he wants to help somebody.
You might have a different way. That's fine. It's his money,
it's his deal. But let me ask you, Noah, I mean,
would you give her another chance? She's kind of doubling
down on this opinion, but would you, I mean, we'll
pay for another date. Would you be willing to try again? Honestly?
Speaker 3 (07:31):
If she had walked it back and maybe just said
I understand where you're coming from, and that's totally fine,
I see, it doesn't really matter that much. But no,
since she doubled down and isn't going to give me
an ounce of credit for just trying to do something nice.
Speaker 1 (07:45):
I'm not interested. Well, Aston, he's not interested. You might
keep that opinion to yourself. It's also not necessarily universally
accurate either. Your thoughts about not helping. Why you wouldn't
help someone on the street. Okay, I mean, I guess
there are probably scameras out there, but that's not the
way to go through life. I don't think I mean,
(08:06):
just not help anybody because everybody might be abut to
get I don't know. I don't love that perspective either,
but hey, that's your right to have your opinion, his
right to have his. It's not going to work out, guys.
Thank you for your time. Best of luck to both
of you.
Speaker 2 (08:18):
Yeah. Thanks.
Speaker 1 (08:19):
