Speaker 1 (00:00):
No show is on the biggest stories of the day.
You know what I can say it my dad was
a little thirsty. I think, hey, he played the game.
Yes he did, Okay, he got a good one. He did,
and then he got stuck with two. It's not nose
kids that he had to put through college. I'm like,
you do realize that my mom was very expensive for you?
You know, I don't know how much that costs. But anyway,
(00:22):
so Big Pharma is dropping prices for weight loss drugs
if you want to pay cash, but still it's still
really expensive. The makers of the weight loss drug we
Govy will begin offering the drug directly to patients that
are reduced costs. Pharmaceutical company I believe it's called Novo
Nordis I hope I said that right announced on Wednesday
that it's starting Novocare Pharmacy, a program that will offer
(00:43):
direct to patient sales to underinsured or uninsured customers. The
program will sell we Goby for the whopping price of
four ninety nine a month, but I guess it could
cost as much as thirteen hundred dollars. Uh if you're
paying cash forward. Now, remember this is this drug is
used to treat uh, well, somebody drugs. I'm not I'm
not a currently licensed doctor, but somebody drugs are needed
(01:06):
for diabetes and other like actual health concerns. People are
using them for weight loss. So I'm not sure if
this helps things to make it more I guess if
you want to call four ninety nine more affordable, because
I know they were having issues with with demand. So anyway,
five hundred bucks a month if you want to take
this stuff to lose weight or gym membership, what does
Planet Fitness cost month? Maybe? Yeah, so there's that you.
Speaker 2 (01:30):
Get pizza on bagels after my kind of jam because
they started like they had the right there.
Speaker 1 (01:35):
They do. Yeah, but I don't think I thought. I
thought it was supposed to be like to troll you.
I didn't think you're really supposed to eat it. I don't.
I thought it was to see like how committed you were.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
Oh no, people eat the pizza and bagels.
Speaker 1 (01:45):
Like a reward. Yeah, like if you go that day
you work out and then you get a slice of pizza. Hut. Yeah. Oh,
I thought it was like the cheese and the mouse trap,
like just let's let's see who needs to come more,
you know, let's see which of our customers we could
sell on our added personal training products. Ians the ones
who came to the gym to eat the donuts. But
I'd be that guy because that's what I do. I
(02:05):
go work out, and then I justified my mind, well,
I just worked out with Gideon and he kicked my butt,
so I should be able to go eat whatever I
want now, and I in my mind, I canceled one
out with the other. But then then I want to
know why I don't look like the Rock and the
reason is because I just ate a pizza after I
worked out, and it barely it didn't even close to
(02:25):
cancel itself out. Two New York City residents were busted
for allegedly stealing and reselling more than nine hundred tickets,
many for Taylor Swift's eras to where those guys netted
more than six hundred thousand dollars in profits. Other high
profile events included Adele and Ed Sheeran, NBA Games, the
US Open. These two people are charged with grand larceny
(02:47):
and computer tampering. Prosecutors say another person involved has not
yet been arrested. I'm sorry that's triggering to you, Jason, kalin,
but it is tickets that you could have used. They
sold for a lot more. Yeah, lock them up, yep, exactly,
that's where they're going. Sure, yeah, another day another it's
(03:07):
on TikTok, but you don't have to do it. TikTokers
are discovering the popular cosmetics brand Lush utilizes edible packing
peanuts to ship its products and have taken to eating them.
Some brands have replaced the bouncy cheese doodle shaped styrofoam
nuggets that often accompany your more fragile shippables with a vegetable,
starch based alternative, and people are eating them.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
Jesus So.
Speaker 1 (03:31):
In twenty seventeen, Lush announced that it's packing peanuts where
one hundred percent edible, and now there's been a surge
on social media people putting that claim to the test.
The warning here, though, is that it's important to note
that not all packing peanuts are edible. Most are made
from styrofoam. So those particular ones I guess you could
eat if you must let them do it.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
I'm natural selection. I'm sick of it.
Speaker 3 (03:54):
If you want to drop stuff on your feet, do it.
If you want to pound on somebody's front door and
see what happens.
Speaker 2 (03:59):
Do it. I'm sick of it. This is crazy, yes,
but it's crazy just.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
Because you see someone eating a packing this is so ridiculous.
I can't believe. Don't having to say this. Just because
you see someone eating a packing peanut online does not
mean that you can just eat any packing peanut like
from the ups store or whatever. Please don't. And another
food story this morning that made headlines. After eating a
massive burger super quickly, a guy ended up at the hospital.
(04:24):
The thirty year old man this was in Singapore, visited
the emergency room with a bloated stomach and gut pain.
When doctors examined a guy, they found that his abdomen
was swollen. The X ray revealed air pockets and the
patient's abdominal cavity. I mean, this goes on and on.
So the dude ate a seven pound burger in thirty
minutes and it basically got stuck in him and they
(04:49):
had to, like, I don't know what they had had surgery.
I don't know what they had to do. His intestines
had been pushed over to the left of his abdomen,
flattening his pancreas. Eight hours prior to visiting the emergency room,
he had been in this speed eating competition. Anyway, this
whole thing is it was really bad doctors one that
frequently cramming a stomach with enormous quantities of food carries
(05:09):
serious health risks. These risks may include injury to the
stomach wall or weakening of muscles that move food into
the lower in testin. So, don't do it so that
guy from waiting on the phone a couple of weeks
ago that one of that woman to eat all that
stuff so he could get it on with her. Not
a good idea. Don't do that you wind up in
the hospital. But yeah, he ate a seven pound burger
in thirty minutes. That's insane.
Speaker 2 (05:30):
Play stupid games, you win stupid prizes, right.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
Yeah, no speed eating of seven pound masses of meat
and how about no eating packing peanuts? And I would
love you for it. It's National Hospitalist Day to Day,
which you'll need to see if you do either one
of those, recognizing the contributions of more than six sixty
thousand hospitalists nationwide. We'll get to the entertainment report next
Fred's show. It's the Fred Show, Ladies and gentlemen, it's
(05:53):

don't need the game show music anymore. It's time to
get serious. Oh no, it's time to get serious now, guys.
(08:13):
This is a very serious game which gives people in
the studio so much anxiety. It's funny to me how
stressed everyone gets about this, this little name that tune game.
But these are these are random throwbacks. Okay, they could
go all the way into the nineties if we so choose. However,
we define a throwback on this show as six and
a half years are or older. Okay.

talking about how nervous it makes you. But you passed
off your showdown duties to someone else because.

It made you so nervous. That's how we feel.
Speaker 1 (08:49):
YEA holdout a second, Okay. I am a veteran of
the game. I already earned my stripes three times. I
played sixty times. Okay, all right, if you've been listening
for a while, you know this is Shelley. Shelley is
our pop cul transport who normally plays the game. She
invented the game. It's hers, but she had baby Olivia
(09:11):
four years ago. He is three years ago, and I
filled in for her, And you're right, that was extremely stressful. Yeah,
and I nominated Kiki this time around to fill in
for show Bis Shelley for baby number two. So I
don't want to hear it.
Speaker 3 (09:24):
I did my time right, and I want to pass
this off to someone else.

about it too, because you've only been playing this game
for like three minutes, but none of us can remember.

can see how you might make that mistake. I can't.
So today one three Jason Brown, and then just one
for Pink and Blue October yesterday. Yeah, just shout out
to them, pour one out for those guys. All right,
three songs left, So I guess that means we can
still tie and go to a tie break around if necessary,
(18:33):
or Jason could win at any point in the throwback
throw down.
Speaker 5 (18:43):
Hey, surpassing it, friend, I'm not giving it.

Speaker 5 (20:02):
Us.
Speaker 1 (20:09):
He knows he's calling the hotline. He's alone, he's a
grown up, but he's home alone. And I don't know
why we're bragging about that. And then.
Speaker 2 (20:20):
It is odd to say the girl.
Speaker 1 (20:22):
That he's calling, he assumes even though it's sexy time,
he assumes you wear a big underwear, but take those off.
But take the underwear off, but then put another pair on.
Speaker 3 (20:36):
Listen, they're all in the journey laundry.
Speaker 1 (20:43):
Yeah, I think you're right. It's a lot of talking
about what he is, a lot of action. But you
want he's doing for me? I mean it's not working.
I'm not at all at all.
Speaker 2 (21:02):
For my underwear.

put some other ones neck? Not good? So what is
it to Paulina?
Speaker 2 (21:18):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (21:19):
One, Kaylin three Jason Brown. So Paulina, you would have
to get both of these to tie Jason for the
tie break around, or Jason can win, or if somebody
else buzzes in. Then Jason wins as well.
Speaker 2 (21:29):
Wait I could tie, couldn't if there's two more left
and he has.
Speaker 1 (21:31):
Three and you have one I have one. Yeah, no

a Jason Paulina face off right now, Okay. And I'll
be honest, this is a hard song. I think this

Speaker 2 (23:35):
Oh my god, Frankie J.

You have Frankie J, a very sexy Hispanic man, very sultry,
(24:41):
and then you got Elliott. Yeah, he's a very white
Jewish man, Elliott, and he was on American Idol. By
the way, Pauline is looking up to see what Elliott
looks like.
Speaker 2 (24:51):
That is not Frankie Jail.
Speaker 1 (24:53):
That's what I'm saying now. Truly couldn't be any different, actually,
but anyway, it's fine. Honestly, if I didn't know what
Elliott I mean looked like, I might not guess he
looks like that, you know what I mean? That's he

Yes he did, Okay, he got a good one. He did,
and then he got stuck with two. It's not nose
kids that he had to put through college. I'm like,
you do realize that my mom was very expensive for you?
You know, I don't know how much that costs. But anyway,
(00:22):
so Big Pharma is dropping prices for weight loss drugs
if you want to pay cash, but still it's still
really expensive. The makers of the weight loss drug we
Govy will begin offering the drug directly to patients that
are reduced costs. Pharmaceutical company I believe it's called Novo
Nordis I hope I said that right announced on Wednesday
that it's starting Novocare Pharmacy, a program that will offer
(00:43):
direct to patient sales to underinsured or uninsured customers. The
program will sell we Goby for the whopping price of
four ninety nine a month, but I guess it could
cost as much as thirteen hundred dollars. Uh if you're
paying cash forward. Now, remember this is this drug is
used to treat uh, well, somebody drugs. I'm not I'm
not a currently licensed doctor, but somebody drugs are needed
(01:06):
for diabetes and other like actual health concerns. People are
using them for weight loss. So I'm not sure if
this helps things to make it more I guess if
you want to call four ninety nine more affordable, because
I know they were having issues with with demand. So anyway,
five hundred bucks a month if you want to take
this stuff to lose weight or gym membership, what does
Planet Fitness cost month? Maybe? Yeah, so there's that you.
Speaker 2 (01:30):
Get pizza on bagels after my kind of jam because
they started like they had the right there.
Speaker 1 (01:35):
They do. Yeah, but I don't think I thought. I
thought it was supposed to be like to troll you.
I didn't think you're really supposed to eat it. I don't.
I thought it was to see like how committed you were.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
Oh no, people eat the pizza and bagels.
Speaker 1 (01:45):
Like a reward. Yeah, like if you go that day
you work out and then you get a slice of pizza. Hut. Yeah. Oh,
I thought it was like the cheese and the mouse trap,
like just let's let's see who needs to come more,
you know, let's see which of our customers we could
sell on our added personal training products. Ians the ones
who came to the gym to eat the donuts. But
I'd be that guy because that's what I do. I
(02:05):
go work out, and then I justified my mind, well,
I just worked out with Gideon and he kicked my butt,
so I should be able to go eat whatever I
want now, and I in my mind, I canceled one
out with the other. But then then I want to
know why I don't look like the Rock and the
reason is because I just ate a pizza after I
worked out, and it barely it didn't even close to
(02:25):
cancel itself out. Two New York City residents were busted
for allegedly stealing and reselling more than nine hundred tickets,
many for Taylor Swift's eras to where those guys netted
more than six hundred thousand dollars in profits. Other high
profile events included Adele and Ed Sheeran, NBA Games, the
US Open. These two people are charged with grand larceny
(02:47):
and computer tampering. Prosecutors say another person involved has not
yet been arrested. I'm sorry that's triggering to you, Jason, kalin,
but it is tickets that you could have used. They
sold for a lot more. Yeah, lock them up, yep, exactly,
that's where they're going. Sure, yeah, another day another it's
(03:07):
on TikTok, but you don't have to do it. TikTokers
are discovering the popular cosmetics brand Lush utilizes edible packing
peanuts to ship its products and have taken to eating them.
Some brands have replaced the bouncy cheese doodle shaped styrofoam
nuggets that often accompany your more fragile shippables with a vegetable,
starch based alternative, and people are eating them.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
Jesus So.
Speaker 1 (03:31):
In twenty seventeen, Lush announced that it's packing peanuts where
one hundred percent edible, and now there's been a surge
on social media people putting that claim to the test.
The warning here, though, is that it's important to note
that not all packing peanuts are edible. Most are made
from styrofoam. So those particular ones I guess you could
eat if you must let them do it.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
I'm natural selection. I'm sick of it.
Speaker 3 (03:54):
If you want to drop stuff on your feet, do it.
If you want to pound on somebody's front door and
see what happens.
Speaker 2 (03:59):
Do it. I'm sick of it. This is crazy, yes,
but it's crazy just.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
Because you see someone eating a packing this is so ridiculous.
I can't believe. Don't having to say this. Just because
you see someone eating a packing peanut online does not
mean that you can just eat any packing peanut like
from the ups store or whatever. Please don't. And another
food story this morning that made headlines. After eating a
massive burger super quickly, a guy ended up at the hospital.
(04:24):
The thirty year old man this was in Singapore, visited
the emergency room with a bloated stomach and gut pain.
When doctors examined a guy, they found that his abdomen
was swollen. The X ray revealed air pockets and the
patient's abdominal cavity. I mean, this goes on and on.
So the dude ate a seven pound burger in thirty
minutes and it basically got stuck in him and they
(04:49):
had to, like, I don't know what they had had surgery.
I don't know what they had to do. His intestines
had been pushed over to the left of his abdomen,
flattening his pancreas. Eight hours prior to visiting the emergency room,
he had been in this speed eating competition. Anyway, this
whole thing is it was really bad doctors one that
frequently cramming a stomach with enormous quantities of food carries
(05:09):
serious health risks. These risks may include injury to the
stomach wall or weakening of muscles that move food into
the lower in testin. So, don't do it so that
guy from waiting on the phone a couple of weeks
ago that one of that woman to eat all that
stuff so he could get it on with her. Not
a good idea. Don't do that you wind up in
the hospital. But yeah, he ate a seven pound burger
in thirty minutes. That's insane.
Speaker 2 (05:30):
Play stupid games, you win stupid prizes, right.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
Yeah, no speed eating of seven pound masses of meat
and how about no eating packing peanuts? And I would
love you for it. It's National Hospitalist Day to Day,
which you'll need to see if you do either one
of those, recognizing the contributions of more than six sixty
thousand hospitalists nationwide. We'll get to the entertainment report next
Fred's show. It's the Fred Show, Ladies and gentlemen, it's

don't need the game show music anymore. It's time to
get serious. Oh no, it's time to get serious now, guys.
(08:13):
This is a very serious game which gives people in
the studio so much anxiety. It's funny to me how
stressed everyone gets about this, this little name that tune game.
But these are these are random throwbacks. Okay, they could
go all the way into the nineties if we so choose. However,
we define a throwback on this show as six and
a half years are or older. Okay.
Speaker 2 (08:34):

talking about how nervous it makes you. But you passed
off your showdown duties to someone else because.
Speaker 2 (08:46):
It made you so nervous. That's how we feel.
Speaker 1 (08:49):
YEA holdout a second, Okay. I am a veteran of
the game. I already earned my stripes three times. I
played sixty times. Okay, all right, if you've been listening
for a while, you know this is Shelley. Shelley is
our pop cul transport who normally plays the game. She
invented the game. It's hers, but she had baby Olivia
(09:11):
four years ago. He is three years ago, and I
filled in for her, And you're right, that was extremely stressful. Yeah,
and I nominated Kiki this time around to fill in
for show Bis Shelley for baby number two. So I
don't want to hear it.
Speaker 3 (09:24):
I did my time right, and I want to pass
this off to someone else.

Speaker 1 (12:48):

(13:09):
I don't know. It depends on what I think that
was their biggest song they had, they had, They have
a lot of songs, but I don't really know if
you'd consider any of that. What was Blue October's biggest hit.

about it too, because you've only been playing this game
for like three minutes, but none of us can remember.
Here we are song four in the throwback throw Down.

but underappreciated. We don't talk about this song nearly enough.

Okay, we're going to the phone of friends, so that
means it's Kaylen and Diana, Kaylen and Diana only. And
I'll give you a little bit more here, and I'm
making you the mountain you earn when we think? Yes,
is it Ludafrid?
Speaker 2 (17:02):
Hold on? Do you think?
Speaker 1 (17:04):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (17:04):
Do you think I'm guessing? Honestly? Shake your money maker?
Speaker 1 (17:09):

Shenanigans around here. You can.
Speaker 2 (17:46):
Shake you money maker.

We hear it, We definitely hear that. You know that
was a really good guess though, I can see I

can see how you might make that mistake. I can't.
So today one three Jason Brown, and then just one
for Pink and Blue October yesterday. Yeah, just shout out
to them, pour one out for those guys. All right,
three songs left, So I guess that means we can
still tie and go to a tie break around if necessary,
(18:33):
or Jason could win at any point in the throwback
throw down.
Speaker 5 (18:43):
Hey, surpassing it, friend, I'm not giving it.

Us.
Speaker 1 (20:09):
He knows he's calling the hotline. He's alone, he's a
grown up, but he's home alone. And I don't know
why we're bragging about that. And then.
Speaker 2 (20:20):
It is odd to say the girl.
Speaker 1 (20:22):
That he's calling, he assumes even though it's sexy time,
he assumes you wear a big underwear, but take those off.
But take the underwear off, but then put another pair on.
Speaker 3 (20:36):
Listen, they're all in the journey laundry.
Speaker 1 (20:43):
Yeah, I think you're right. It's a lot of talking
about what he is, a lot of action. But you

Speaker 2 (21:18):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (21:19):
One, Kaylin three Jason Brown. So Paulina, you would have
to get both of these to tie Jason for the
tie break around, or Jason can win, or if somebody
else buzzes in. Then Jason wins as well.
Speaker 2 (21:29):
Wait I could tie, couldn't if there's two more left
and he has.
Speaker 1 (21:31):

a Jason Paulina face off right now, Okay. And I'll
be honest, this is a hard song. I think this

Jewish man, Elliott, and he was on American Idol. By
the way, Pauline is looking up to see what Elliott
looks like.
Speaker 2 (24:51):
That is not Frankie Jail.
Speaker 1 (24:53):
That's what I'm saying now. Truly couldn't be any different, actually,
