Like, for example, I just just because Paulina on our
sheet for the day that we all contribute our ideas
to what is your latest impulse purchase? Mine is a
woman power suit for no reason? No, a woman power
suit late as opposed to just a power suit that
could be for a man, it could be for a woman.
(00:21):
You win for this specifically female woman in power suit.
Why why do we have a power suit?

Speaker 5 (01:22):
Okay, So you're in a new dressing era kind of'm
I'm like a year postpartum, so I'm trying to like, see,

Speaker 4 (01:28):
What's what's my style? Wherever am I now?
Speaker 6 (01:30):
As a mom?
Speaker 4 (01:31):
A hot mom? Right, hot moms? Check in, tap in.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
I feel like this is when I was, like when
I was eight years old and I carried a briefcase too.
Speaker 5 (01:42):
I have a Palm pilot with no Internet that I
asked for for Christmas.
Speaker 4 (01:45):
Like, what was I doing on my palm pilot business?
Speaker 2 (01:48):
I mean, you were ahead of your time, on your game,
You are keeping track of your contacts.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
What you would do with a.
Speaker 7 (02:00):
Yeah, for sure, I have a really busy schedule.
Speaker 1 (02:05):
This is what this is what this sounds like.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
So if you would, you know, maybe sometime next week
or whenever, if you'd wear your your woman power suit
to work.
Speaker 1 (02:12):
We would all love it.
Speaker 3 (02:14):
I absolutely will when you see me walking around with
Fred's old briefcase a and my burgundy power suit.
Speaker 4 (02:20):
Just mind your bustiness, Guys' sorry.
Speaker 6 (02:21):
For these people here to take you. Seriously, don't get me.
Speaker 4 (02:26):
Jason's got a hat on.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
I'm wearing a hat.
Speaker 6 (02:29):
You got a suitn't know.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
We all make one professional human.
Speaker 6 (02:39):
Right right?
Speaker 8 (02:42):
The French Show is on Friend's Biggest Stories of the Day.
Speaker 1 (02:46):
All right.
Speaker 2 (02:47):
So the post Office wants you to know that it's
going to take longer for you to get your stuff,
now what, But it might also be more expensive. So
big changes are coming to the US Postal Service and
are going to slow down your delivery. Starting April first,
the Postal Services rolling out new policies aimed at saving
thirty six billion dollars over.
Speaker 1 (03:06):
The next decade.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
So most first class mail won't be affected by about
eleven percent of customers could see delays by a few days. Plus,
everiers shipping packages on Saturdays right before a holiday, you
can expect an extra day for delivery. The USPS says
the changes will improve service for rural areas and help
tackle their financial struggles, but for some the trustees, snail
(03:28):
mail might get even slower. So let's take antiquated technology
and let's make it even worse.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
And that'll that'll work.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
That's like Southwest saying, let's take away the one thing
everyone liked about us, which was free baths.
Speaker 6 (03:42):
That'll certainly boost business. Yakiki, I better get my value
pack though. That's all I'm looking for.
Speaker 4 (03:48):
So you open that?
Speaker 2 (03:49):
Yeah, the one. You're the one who opens the value pack.
Speaker 6 (03:53):
You guys don't appreciate somebody took their time to put
all those thin little ads in one envelope.
Speaker 4 (03:59):
For our good.
Speaker 6 (04:00):
The couponds you use them, No, but say you might.
You might open it and win one hundred dollars or something.
Speaker 4 (04:06):
Oh, I'm gonna say I or a free car wash.
I dote a free car wash in there.
Speaker 6 (04:09):
Oh, really, don't sleep on those. Don't sleep on some.
I just can't believe somebody you sitting there putting all
they're so thin, the little peger.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
I wonder if someone steals mine. I never get one. Really,
no value pad comes in my ouse. That's my favorite
piece of mail. I remember when I was a kid,
I wanted mail. I think this was around the same
stage that I was carrying a briefcase to school for
three or four days.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
I really wanted like.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
The mail to come, and I wanted something to be
in there for me, and so my mom used to
give me like the junk mail or whatever was you know,
I don't know ads, stuff you say was for me
and says you give it to me. And now I
get all kinds of mail, and I don't want most
of it because it's bills or ads or bills or
(04:55):
you know whatever, some form of u OUs money or
here's how you can spend money on something you don't
want to, or they trick us. I've already complained about this,
that they trick us with some kind of official looking
piece of mail that you open and it's not official
at all. It's an AD for something you tricked me.
But then I start throwing stuff away that looks official,
but I'm like, no, you're tricking me. But then I
(05:16):
find out later there was a check edit or something.
You're like, oh, I needed that one, But I don't.
I resent the fact that people send mail to our
homes that looks like you got to open it, but
then you open it only to find out that it's
like you know, I don't know the Official Insurance Institute
of America with some abbreviation, and all that is is
(05:37):
all it really is is an ad to get you
to change your car insurance. And I'm like, well, it
looked like this looking official to me that when it
came from the from the White House or something and
I opened it and now I find out that it
has nothing to.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
Do with anything. Yeah.
Speaker 9 (05:49):
When they make it look like a check and you
have to rip off the sides first and then rip
off like the.
Speaker 6 (05:53):
Top right, You're like, oh my god, my check.
Speaker 1 (05:56):
And then it's like you know.
Speaker 6 (05:59):
Or alone.
Speaker 9 (06:00):
I know, I'm brief like, no, I don't need it,
you can have.
Speaker 6 (06:07):
That or whatever.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
They make it look like there's a credit card in there,
but there's not. It's just a little plastic thing. But
then you can call and get ah, it's me crazy.
The DNA genetic testing company twenty three in Me is
filed for bankruptcy and booms. This is why I didn't
do it, you guys, This is why I didn't do
the twenty three in me that you gave me for
Christmas seven years ago, because where is where is my
(06:30):
DNA going? Well, we don't know because they're filing for
bankruptcy and they're going to have to sell their assets
to pay their creditors. If you're one of the over
fifteen million people who have provided saliva samples to those guys,
unless you take action, there is a risk that your
genetic information could wind up elsewhere and potentially used in
ways that you didn't want.
Speaker 1 (06:49):
So here's what you have to do.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
Yeah, if you have genetic data with twenty three in me,
then you got to follow a bunch of steps to
delete your account and personal information. You go your web site,
You go to settings, You go to twenty three and
meet data at the bottom of the page.
Speaker 1 (07:04):
Click view.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
You can download the data and then delete it and
then also permanently deleted, and then you'll get a confirmation
email from them saying that it happened. And then if
you want them to destroy your twenty three and meat
test samples, then you can go in there to preferences
I guess, and then revoke permission for your genetic data
to be used for research and then they get rid
(07:29):
of it somehow.
Speaker 4 (07:30):
But why am I upset about that?
Speaker 5 (07:31):
Like, I don't care what they do with my DNA,
and what are they going to do make another Kailin.
Speaker 4 (07:34):
That's terrifying for the rest of the world. No one
needs that.
Speaker 6 (07:38):
It might okay, I don't. I don't know what they're
gonna do with it.
Speaker 5 (07:42):
You know, they already have the government already has our DNA.
And I don't know if I trust them any more
than I trust twenty three and meters.
Speaker 6 (07:49):
No, I don't.
Speaker 4 (07:49):
I know what I'm chilling like, I'm good, I'm glad.
Speaker 5 (07:53):
I know that I was, you know, related to some
Irish king eight hundred years ago.
Speaker 2 (07:57):
Fine, I mean, if you want to look at my
brain I was in history and see what kind of
naughty videos I occasionally stumble on to you, than fine.
Speaker 1 (08:04):
But I don't know.
Speaker 2 (08:04):
I don't really necessarily think I need people nefarious people
to have my DNA handy.
Speaker 1 (08:11):
I don't know. It just doesn't sound craz you.
Speaker 4 (08:14):
Don't need it anymore, you've got it, so.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
Oh, I think it's still an important part of you know,
like living and survival.
Speaker 1 (08:21):
I don't know it's with AI and and yeah.
Speaker 4 (08:24):
I don't up to Fred. I feel like I'm worried,
like what are you doing?
Speaker 2 (08:28):
I don't want people to have my DNA now, granted, on.
You know, sometimes on the weekend I give it out liberally.
Other than that, I don't you know that they don't
know what's holding on to it. Okay, I think I
don't know. For some reason, I don't want people to
have my DNA. Let me, let me have it, let
me all right. We've heard a lot of airplane stories
that are that are frightening and dangerous, and this is
one of them, except with a happy ending. A pilot
(08:49):
on his two daughters are rescued this week after their
plane crashed into an icy Alaska lake. So lots of
layers of potential issues here, but the the Little Piper
super Cruiser was on a sightseeeing tour over the Key
Nine Peninsula. My friend Trevor is from the Key Nine
Peninsula on Sunday when it went missing. Social media posts
written by the pilot's father prompted about a dozen residents
(09:11):
to launch aerial searches for the missing family. Twelve hours
after the plane went down, one of the pilots flying
over a lake spotted the partially submerged aircraft with the
trios standing on top of the wing. Members of the
Alaska Army National Guard rescued the family. They were taken
to a hospital with non life threatening injuries. It was
literally the best possible scenario and outcome, said the commander
(09:34):
of the two hundred and seventh Aviation Regiment. But yeah,
they crashed on ice. The plane went into the ice,
and they still lived and somebody came found them. I mean, yeah,
you know what, I want their DNA because those people
are survivors.
Speaker 1 (09:48):
Okay, And I feel like I would, I would give up.
Speaker 2 (09:50):
I feel like I would get a little cold and
be like, there's no there's no duncan around here, there's
no McDonald's, there's no where's my mom, where's my brief?
Where is Paulina in her power her woman power suit?
And if I can't have any of that, then there's
just nothing worth It's not worth living anymore. And then
I would get eaten by a polar bear that I
tried to reason with so and ask for directions. That's
(10:13):
what happened to me in that situation. Nostalgia is one
of the most powerful things on earth. I contend people's
memories and their association with the past and with our childhoods,
I think is more valuable than anything when it comes
to music. When it comes to food, but a new
study says that two and three Americans would pay extra
to bring back their favorite retired products. Can you think
(10:36):
of anything off the top of your heads and it's
I don't know, maybe it's from recently, but probably from
growing up that doesn't exist anymore, be it food or
be it I don't know, cosmetic or whatever it is.
Can you think or even a restaurant or a kind
of food. Can you think of anything that you wish
would come back from your childhood?
Speaker 5 (10:53):
I mean the snack crab they play in my face
every year, and like, where is the snack crap?
Speaker 6 (10:58):
I'm upset, period one.
Speaker 4 (11:03):
I mean anything else.
Speaker 2 (11:04):
I was just like you have. I was going to
make sure you got it all out.
Speaker 5 (11:08):
I mean it was you know, well, they keep announcing
like it's coming out, it's coming out every year they're
playing in my face.
Speaker 6 (11:13):
Was it really that good? Yes, it's chicken strip. I
never had one totilla, No tortilla.
Speaker 4 (11:19):
Chicken strip, lettuce, shredded cheese. Okay, that sounds good.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
It was ranch.
Speaker 6 (11:23):
Nobody sails it.
Speaker 4 (11:25):
Not the same.
Speaker 5 (11:26):
I tried the Burger King one, you know, respect to
Burger King, but it just wasn't the same. You tried
to make one at home, couldn't recreate it didn't hit
the same.
Speaker 4 (11:35):
They're just playing in my face. I'm tired.
Speaker 6 (11:37):
Oh yeah, I want the sidekick phone back.
Speaker 4 (11:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (11:40):
Then it's a little slide up the screen.
Speaker 4 (11:42):
I want to I wanted it.
Speaker 6 (11:44):
I want to be on my sidekick. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (11:46):
I remember I sent three of them back because I
didn't realize this. But after after ten, like ten messages
or something out of it was ten or twenty or
fifty or whatever it was, you had to delete the
messages to get more. And so I would get to
a where like I wasn't getting messages after like three days.
Because I was very popular when I had a sidekick, obviously,
because everybody who had a sidekick was wildly popular. And
(12:07):
if you remember, it was the little phone that you
like held in your hand like a little rectangle, and
then you'd push with your ring or your pointer finger
and the screen would flip around and then it turned
into like a little computer looking thing, and and everybody,
I don't remember if it was like Paris Hilton that
had one, or somebody had one in the in the
two thousands, and then it became the thing everyone had
(12:29):
to have. But anyway, I'm like, this thing's a piece.
I gotta keep going in there and wherever and be
like this doesn't work. Look, I get kick at messages
and then finally, after like the third one, I gave
them back. They oh, you know you're supposed to delete
your messages to get more. Oh no, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (12:46):
I was very upset.
Speaker 2 (12:47):
This is that's my sidekick memory is that I had
to keep remembering to delete my text messages or otherwise
my sidekick wouldn't sidekick.
Speaker 1 (12:53):
I was upset. I was upset.
Speaker 2 (12:55):
So I had to put on my woman power suit
and I had to go in there and I had
to I had to stand on business with them. Before
was standing on business was four phone, which is what
This is what you need to do, though, This is
what you need to do, kayleb. You need to put
your woman power suit on and march down there to
the McDonald's headquarters and let them know what you need.
Speaker 4 (13:17):
Maybe that's what I'm missing.
Speaker 5 (13:18):
I mean, I've I've plied with them on social media,
you know, I mean the comments I'm manifesting.
Speaker 4 (13:24):
But maybe I need a woman power suit. I got you.
I got one pretty cool.
Speaker 2 (13:27):
Have you ever done something like that with a tech item,
where like you insist it doesn't work and you're like
mad about it, and you go in like this doesn't work,
I want a new one, and then they show you
something extremely basic that you were doing wrong.
Speaker 1 (13:41):
Have you ever had that happen?
Speaker 6 (13:42):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (13:42):
My iPod it was also Apple, and like the logo
has like a little dash through the Apple, and I
thought my screen was broken, like every time, and then I.
Speaker 4 (13:50):
Realized, like, that's just how it appears.
Speaker 1 (13:53):
Oh, that was just normal.
Speaker 4 (13:55):
Yeah, it was just normal for my iPod.
Speaker 5 (13:57):
I don't know if they don't even have the Apple
logo anymore on this, but yeah, I thought my screen
was broken and they were like, you're just an idiot.
Speaker 2 (14:03):
I very rarely get uppity, very very rarely normally, Like
if I'm getting bad service or something's broken, I'll just
sort of like cower and leave because I never want
to be that person. But I remember, for whatever reason,
few years ago, I had to have a record player.
I had to have one Will Records, well Jason went
through his record era.
Speaker 1 (14:22):
Yeah as well.
Speaker 2 (14:23):
Yeah, but I wanted one of those, like like one
of those the cool DJ turntables, the techniques. I wanted
the twelve hundreds. I wanted the wheels of steel, you know,
like I don't know why. And then so I found
a place that in a random neighborhood. I swear this guy,
if he's still open, then it's a miracle. But he
(14:44):
repaired record players and VHS players and tube televisions. That
was his business in twenty twenty one or whatever it was.
I mean literally, you'd walk in and it was like
one hundred thousand million tube televisions, like the big ass
heavy TVs, and then he had a bunch of VHS
players and like record players, and that's what this guy did.
(15:07):
I think he also repaired vacuum cleaners.
Speaker 1 (15:08):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (15:09):
Anyway, it looked like a front of a business to me.
But anyway, so I go in there and I'm like, right,
said I called him. I said I want this kind
of record player. He's like, yeah, I'll find you one
and i'll fix it up. And it was stupier expensive
and you can come and get it. So I go
down there and I get it and it was kind
of hard to get to and paint in the butt
to park and the whole thing. And I go in
there and he's like, here it is and it looked
really nice, and I bought it and I was so
(15:31):
excited and I go home and I plug it in
and I started to play a record and it doesn't work,
and I'm like, what the heck? And so for like
an hour, I'm looking at all the connections because you
gotta plug this thing in.
Speaker 1 (15:41):
It's not digital. I'm like, what is going on with
this thing?
Speaker 2 (15:43):
And I'm so mad, and so I called this guy
and I'm just annoyed after like this three hour adventure
to try and get my new record player. And I
think I had my like Paul Abdual record right there
ready to go, and I ordered it online. I was
I had my Whitney Houston right there, like we were
gonna jam out to Madonna's and Mac collection on LP.
It was gonna be so exciting, and I had my
(16:03):
power seat on everything. And the guy is like, well,
did you try this? Did you try that? And then
he goes, well did you take the plastic cover off
of the needle on the record player? And I'm like,
of course I did that. What do you think I am?
Of course everyone knows to do that. That's not what
the problem here is forget about it. And I hung up,
and I went over to the record player, and sure enough,
(16:24):
there was the plastic cover on the needle and I
took it off and I record player worked fine. And
I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I'm sorry to that man, but
that was what it was. It was a little plastic
thing on the end. It's like, huh, I'm in a radio.
You know, you think I would know how to work
the equipment, but then again, if you listen, then you
know that I don't. And I should have called the
(16:44):
guy back, and I didn't get mad at him, but
I was just like, ah, this thing's busted. And it
was you know, he was an expert and fixing record players,
and I probably.
Speaker 1 (16:53):
Should have called and apologized to him.
Speaker 2 (16:55):
But that's what happens, I guess when I get all upity,
and then it was my fault the whole time. It
was like the pizza story from earlier in the week,
where the guy delivered the pizza and it wasn't at
my house. It was exactly where I told him to go,
in the wrong state. Sorry about that. But if people
want crystal PEPSI back, they want banana ness quick back.
They want Atari, and they want Nintendo. Oh yes, Nintendo,
(17:18):
I Nintendo. I don't know why they don't just make
the consoles again. I guess they kind of do they.
I mean, you can't get like an nes I, you know,
per Se, but you can get those emulators that all
those games or I've ever seen those ads on TikTok.
It's like eighty seven gazillion games on this little thing,
and then you can plug in your Nintendo controller and
it acts just like it did when we were kids.
Speaker 6 (17:38):
Yep.
Speaker 2 (17:39):
But that's the only reason I want that is because
that's the only caliber of game I could play. Like
two buttons and a little joystick, that's it. Like you
start adding buttons on the top and on the bottom,
and I'm like squeezing triggers and all the No, if
I need to push more than two things at once,
then that's not the kind of game for me. But
people want stuff from their past. Seventy three percent of
(18:00):
people would keep buying from their favorite brands even if
prices started soaring. They won high quality products, great experiences,
and a history of trust. I guess people feel like
there was more value back in the day than there
is now and a story that I think a lot
of people resonates with a lot of people. A woman
says that her rescue dog ate five pair of skim
(18:20):
underwear skims, leaving her with a thirteen thousand dollars vet bill. Now,
Jason's not mad about the vet bill. He's mad about
the wasted five pair of skims underwear, which were probably
also thirteen thousand dollars exactly.
Speaker 6 (18:34):
Those are not cheap.
Speaker 2 (18:35):
But a terrier mixed rescue dog from a dog shelter
was in this woman's home and after a couple of months,
she came home and saw the pup lying on top
of a dirty clothes pile. Oh, it wasn't even clean underwear,
it was underwear.
Speaker 4 (18:51):
It's a dog, so they love those.
Speaker 10 (18:52):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (18:53):
Yeah, and her underwear was missing. Yeah that's gross, let
me do that.
Speaker 1 (18:59):
But she is.
Speaker 2 (19:00):
I guess she had to have some kind of procedure. Oh,
she had her intestines removed after an emergency visit to
the vet and a thirteen thousand dollars bill.
Speaker 4 (19:09):
Oh, they must be like the skinny thongs. You know
what I mean to get wrapped up in the intestine.
Speaker 2 (19:15):
I don't know. I wear the fatter thongs. That's yeah,
not the skinny.
Speaker 4 (19:20):
One race ones.
Speaker 1 (19:21):
I wear the granny ones.
Speaker 6 (19:24):
Granny Yeah, yeah, the granny thong.
Speaker 2 (19:26):
Yeah, that's what I wear. It's actually more on at all.
But she's doing Okay, this dog is good.
Speaker 4 (19:32):
Like, is she going to pay for her skims because
that's that's a crime.
Speaker 2 (19:35):
Yeah, you better get a job. You better get you
a power student, get to work.
Speaker 4 (19:39):
Yeah, come on.
Speaker 2 (19:40):
My sister has a Maine coon, which is like an
eighty seven thousand pound bobcat that she adopted, you know,
like I don't know. She went to the pounds and
got this little kitten that turned out to be a
forty pound cat.
Speaker 1 (19:54):
His name is Adler. He's huge.
Speaker 2 (19:56):
And she found out after like a year that he
needed two brand new hips, both of like he didn't
have it was either hip sockets or like the there's
something wrong with the way that both of his hips
were five thousand dollars a pop.
Speaker 4 (20:10):
Yeah, you need pet insurance.
Speaker 2 (20:11):
And do one, but it's not really nice not to
do the other one. Or in this case, it wouldn't
have been a good like they could have gotten away
with one, but it was like, yeah, you should probably
do both. So yeah, she gets a free cat. Basically
that needed ten thousand dollars worth of surgery that she
had to do and figure it out. But I feel
like that's that's pet ownership, that's home ownership, that's that's
(20:32):
having kids. That's pretty much anything that depends on you
will at any given point maybe cost you a tremendous
amount of money. As a surprise, it's epilepsia aware this day,
so wear something purple in support. And it's Manatee Appreciation
Day today as well. The Entertainment Report Kaitlin has it
in three minutes after Rihanna will get to blogs waiting
by the phone. He's knew what did somebody get ghosted?
(20:53):
Games Show Wednesday, money was showed as Shelley, I'm out
of breath.
Speaker 1 (20:56):
Lots of stuff coming up. They talk better than talk
about it.
Speaker 8 (21:00):
These are the radio blogs on the Fred Show, like
we're writing in our diaries, except we said them aloud.
Speaker 1 (21:06):
We call them blogs. Kiki, Yes, your blog.
Speaker 6 (21:10):
Go all right, dear blog. This is a two parter.
I think I'll start with this though. So yesterday I
went to a funeral and you know, I don't know
if I mean you guys have been to a funeral
and they're always different. There's always different people doing different things,
and it's just like when you're there, you're kind of
watching the room and seeing what's going on. But this
particular funeral that I went to was on TikTok so
(21:33):
and I don't know. Yesday I was gonna see who died, Like,
I'm so sorry. Why didn't know the person? Okay, yeah
I went.
Speaker 2 (21:40):
Because wait, but like who thought to make sure it
was on TikTok.
Speaker 6 (21:43):
I have no idea, but God bless them, because the
thing about it is when you open these social media apps,
you just never know where you're gonna end up. Like
I opened the app with all the intention to like laugh,
look at some baby content. They've been putting a lot
of funny stuff out there. I ended up at somebody's funeral.
When I tell you, the singing was top tier, Like
(22:04):
shout out to the singers that were at the service,
and then you know, the speakers did really well. But
it just made me realize, like I appreciate people who
put their life out there, like the content creators that
let us into the weddings, to the funerals, to the
baby showers. I am ready to attend. All I need
you to do is semi a link. So I opened
my app and I just know, like, this morning I
(22:25):
woke up, I was in the middle of a divorce.
Somebody was going through a divorce, and she was telling
me she's breaking up, and I'm just here for all
of it. So I just want to appreciate the people
who share their lives.
Speaker 2 (22:36):
Oh wait, you watched a funeral on TikTok that just
showed up on your feed or whatever for a person
that you've never met. And then you watch people speak
about this person who you've never met. Yes, but you
can assess they were good speeches, but you don't know
the person that's it. Yes, And you spend an hour
of your time watching this.
Speaker 11 (22:57):
I did.
Speaker 6 (22:57):
I was cooking a pizza in the air fright, and well, wait.
Speaker 12 (23:02):
A minute, that's what I want to talk about. You
cook a pizza in the air force. Oh, yes, girl,
Yeah it's super crunchy. You can warm up pizza that
way too. Yeah, I've done that the funeral.
Speaker 2 (23:16):
So you were like, I know, I just can't imagine
like driving by a church or something and being like, oh,
look at funeral. Let me pop in, see what's going on,
and then you know, and then and then I just
sit there and who I mean, I just can't imagine
because there wouldn't be any contexts and I don't know
the person.
Speaker 6 (23:33):
Yeah, that's the thing. That's the beauty. That's the beauty
in social media. You don't know these people, but you
end up in the situation. I've attended weddings on social media.
I you know, like I said, woke up in a
divorce this morning. That was crazy, And it's just you
just never know where it will take you. And I
know Jason likes to watch live like.
Speaker 4 (23:53):
Those are scary if you go into the wrong ones.
Speaker 6 (23:54):
So yeah, you end up in somebody's bedroom, and how
did I get here?
Speaker 9 (23:59):
Like I want to do it so like I want
to be a life creator where I'm just live and
I love because they like will take me to the
store and they're like take up the phone and like
now we're going shopping, Like now we're going here and there.
Speaker 6 (24:09):
Like I'm like, this is so fun, journey man, and
I love it. I love it, so shout out to
them and I'm sorry for their loss, but wow, I
was entertained. My other My other thing is you know,
and I don't want to be I don't want to
be this person. But you guys have heard my complaint
about the gas station. Where you go you try to
pump your gas, it's going to ask you you want
(24:30):
a car wash? Would you like life insurance? Would you
like to get new bumpers?
Speaker 4 (24:33):
You know, there's Maria Man talking about the news.
Speaker 1 (24:38):
Why shall we screaming at me?
Speaker 6 (24:40):
I don't know?
Speaker 1 (24:41):
Trade down like movies? You know what I'm going? What
is going on?
Speaker 2 (24:50):
Stopping for free? You play yogurt and I'm like, why
are you yelling at me? Yeah?
Speaker 6 (24:54):
I am What on earth? Let me just pump this gas?
But now I.
Speaker 2 (24:58):
Would love why I would love to hear you're connecting
a TikTok funeral.
Speaker 1 (25:01):
At gas station?
Speaker 7 (25:03):
Me too?
Speaker 11 (25:03):
Well?
Speaker 1 (25:04):
Ump, but okaya hanging there?
Speaker 6 (25:07):
So then after the gas station questions, my issue now
is drive through questions. You go to the drive through,
you place your order, very detailed order I give. Okay,
I understand. You asked me, would you like a cookie?
Speaker 11 (25:22):
You know?
Speaker 8 (25:22):
No?
Speaker 6 (25:23):
I didn't. I don't want to.
Speaker 4 (25:24):
Where are we?
Speaker 6 (25:25):
Okay? Everywhere they always got a cookie?
Speaker 4 (25:26):
Cookie? Cookie?
Speaker 1 (25:31):
Ever? Off? Where are you? Where are you driving?
Speaker 6 (25:37):
Donald Key?
Speaker 4 (25:39):
Everybody one.
Speaker 6 (25:42):
Maybe they got cookies. Okay, go ahead, offer your cookie.
Speaker 2 (25:45):
I'm like, okay, No buddy has help, no one ever
drive through, no one has ever. No one's ever said
to me, kiki, uh, that'll be nineteen ninety four. Please
pull forward, by the way, Would you like a cookie?
What would you like? Would you like to cookie with
your order?
Speaker 6 (26:05):
Well, consider yourself lucky. Okay, Because it starts with the cookie,
then it goes to would you like to donate? Yes,
First they say would you like to donate? And they
give you the calls okay, and then you I say, no,
I'm tired, you do. I am tired, Jason. I donate
enough on my own. I don't need to do it
(26:26):
with the cookie or.
Speaker 11 (26:30):
So.
Speaker 6 (26:31):
Then they say, would you like pol would you like
to round up? Bro? Like I would actually just like
to get this order? Tell me you know, I would
like to move on. And so I feel like as
somebody who used to work in a drive through, and yes,
they gave us questions and prompts to add, I would
take it upon myself to select one. Like I'm going
to ask this person would they like a cookie? The
(26:52):
next Person'm gonna ask them when they like to donate. Okay,
I don't like that. Don't hit me with seven different
questions after my going in a rotation.
Speaker 4 (27:01):
Yeah, you forgot the app one?
Speaker 6 (27:03):
Are you going to get your answer? That your Yeah?
Speaker 2 (27:06):
I get that one right, Yeah, I don't understand that question.
I'm in the drive I'm talking to you right now.
Speaker 1 (27:13):
I'm using my.
Speaker 6 (27:15):
Yeah up in the drive through. If I did that,
we would tell you then.
Speaker 2 (27:19):
I don't need to talk to you. I don't need
to tell you what I want, okay, but hold on.
More important, and what concerns me more is how is
a TikTok funeral and grabbing up at the drive through connected?
Speaker 1 (27:33):
Because this one up for me?
Speaker 6 (27:36):
If I had to donated to the diabetes for maybe
the lady would have died. That's the connection. Oh my god, did.
Speaker 1 (27:44):
You really brought that together?
Speaker 11 (27:47):
There you go?
Speaker 1 (27:53):
Do you have what it takes to battle?
Speaker 4 (27:56):
You're definitely gonna be Calledina saddle? Not today.
Speaker 2 (28:02):
Yes's time to sing your song if you would so
gloriously and make all of our days please go.
Speaker 10 (28:09):
I'm not here for the bys today. Don't come for
my friends over again, because that's a clean wind. Kick
He got this, and guess what i'maa do the same thing.
Speaker 6 (28:21):
Hey, hey, hey, my good.
Speaker 1 (28:26):
You know we didn't run this through the writer's room
to make sure all these.
Speaker 6 (28:29):
Are right, so I also wrote these.
Speaker 4 (28:30):
So come at me, bro, you know what can Here
we go, Here she goes again, here we go.
Speaker 2 (28:37):
All right, you know what, I'll tell you what. I
will say this. Some of the people were right about
that one. I guess we're just so used to having
people be so inflammatory in the last couple of months
that it's like every time someone says anything, I'm just
I'm ready to just jump because it's like ninety five
percent of the complaints we get I have no control
(28:58):
over whatsoever.
Speaker 6 (28:58):
Well, yeah, and this was, but this one we did,
so you know what, you are correct, you're.
Speaker 4 (29:03):
Correct, Thank you.
Speaker 5 (29:04):
And also the one who is talking spit on block
us so we can respond, Like you can't say stuff
to us and we can't talk to you.
Speaker 2 (29:12):
We retracted the same in but a person who's still
texting us, I'm like this block to us. But you
know what's funny about our text platform is that you
can block us, but we can't.
Speaker 7 (29:21):
Like, yeah, I know, we just have to take it.
We just can't respond. And for all the people who
are like don't read the text. It's like, well, because
ninety nine percent of them are really helpful to our show.
And like a lot of people now they text before
they call. And so that's why I look at this stuff,
and you know, I will, man, I'm very sensitive, and
I do I am in the comments.
Speaker 1 (29:39):
I'm like the lethal shooter when you're gonna leave me alone,
When you're gonna leave me alone.
Speaker 2 (29:45):
You know who the lethal shooter is. That's what he says,
when you're all gonna learn.
Speaker 4 (29:49):
No.
Speaker 1 (29:49):
I love it, yes, but oh you never seen a
lethal shooter?
Speaker 11 (29:52):
No?
Speaker 4 (29:52):
Is it a movie?
Speaker 1 (29:54):
No? No, no, no.
Speaker 2 (29:54):
It's a guy on on TikTok. And I don't know
what I see him on TikTok. I'm not sure he
more than that. But he's like a former college basketball
player and he's an incredible like jumpshooter. The guy can
hit like baskets from all over the place and people
claim that it's cgi or fake or whatever, and that's
his whole gimmick is like people put in the comments,
but you can't throw a gummy bear into a water bottle.
(30:16):
And then he'll do it from like, you know, a
mile away, and everyone's like, oh, that's fake, and so
his whole his whole gimmick is and I need to
get the clips so I can play it, like y'all
need to leave me alone. It has because I do.
I read all the comments. I'm guilty. I read all
the comments, I read all the texts, I read all
the emails.
Speaker 1 (30:36):
I do. I do, and and you're right, I am.
Speaker 2 (30:39):
I can be very sensitive because I take a lot
of pride in what we do here, and I don't
like it when people assertain things or say things online
that are lies. But anyway, it's okay. But that's the reason.
That's the explanation. But reach out to us anytime if
you would, and you can. You know, if you've got
to complain, fine, maybe just be nice about it. Hey, Joel,

the program. How are you?
Speaker 4 (35:19):
I'm well, thank you?
Speaker 13 (35:20):
How about yourself?
Speaker 11 (35:21):
Do it?
Speaker 1 (35:21):
Okay? What's going on with his dude named Will?
Speaker 2 (35:24):
We got to hear kind of everything how you met,
about any dates you've been on, and then where things
are now.
Speaker 13 (35:29):
So we met on a dating app, and I'm really
just trying to figure out what's going on because we
had a great date, like I would have absolutely put
the money on having it, like having a second date,
but for some reason he hasn't texted me back, and
we had drinks, we had some appetizers, and it went
down here perfect. So just trying to figure out what
happened here.
Speaker 2 (35:49):
Yeah, you go back and think about the conversation, and
you know, no weird topics or anything controversial. You didn't
like the guy's testla on fire like anything like that.
Speaker 6 (35:58):
No, Yeah, nothing weird and unusual like that.
Speaker 2 (36:01):
Okay, because I'm trying to protect you from yourself here
right now, which is what I do I try and
do in Part one of Waiting by the Phone, and
no one has yet to be completely honest with me
about their proclivities. So honestly, like you went on this date,
everything went great. You left the day, You're like, this
guy's good looking. I love the conversation. We're definitely gonna
hang out again. He's gonna call me, We're gonna go
(36:22):
out like there was just no doubt in your mind about.
Speaker 4 (36:23):
This for sure, exactly.
Speaker 2 (36:25):
Huh okay, all right, well, let's call this guy and
we're gonna play a song and come back and do that.
You'll be on the phone at some point. You're welcome
to jump in after we get some info. And the
hope here is that we can figure out why he's
not texting you or calling you and asking you out,
and then we'll set you guys up on a second
date that we pay for. Sound good, all right, Let's
find out what's going on Part two of Waiting Met
the Phone. After Joja cat back in two minutes, all
(36:47):
shall be revealed. It's the Fred Show. Joseah Catty is
the Fred Show on the radio and the iHeart app
live and anytime search for the Fred Show on to man,
make us preset too, if you would. Hey, Jennifer, Yeah,
all right, I was called will you guys met on
one of the apps, and he went out for drinks
and some appetizers, and you had a great time. You
(37:07):
thought the date, in your words, was damn near perfect,
and you were sure that you'd see this guy again,
that he would call you and ask you out for
another date. Except he hasn't done that, and he also
hasn't responded to you at all when you've reached out
to him. Well, let's call this guy now. Good luck, Jennifer.
Speaker 1 (37:29):
Good morning is Will? Oh that was fancy? Hi? Will?
How you doing?
Speaker 2 (37:32):
My name is good morning. This is Fred. I'm calling
from the morning radio show, The Fred's Show. The whole
crew is here, and I do have to tell you
that we are on the radio right now. Is it
cool if we chill it for just a second on
the show. Would you mind?
Speaker 11 (37:45):
No? I don't mind at all.
Speaker 2 (37:46):
I feel bad because you thought this was a work call.
You're all fancy and then right right, yeah, well nobody
ever does. But we're calling on behalf of a woman
who says she recently went on a date with you.
Speaker 1 (38:00):
Her name is Jennifer. Do you remember Jennifer.
Speaker 11 (38:03):
Oh, you've got to be kidding me.
Speaker 2 (38:05):
I am absolutely not kidding you. But why would you
say that? Because I'll tell you that she reached out
to us and said that she thought that your date was,
in her words, damn near perfect, and she was certain
that she would see you again for another date. But
says you haven't reached out and haven't responded to her either,
So what's the deal.
Speaker 11 (38:24):
I mean, it's pretty straightforward. She's a degenerate gambler.
Speaker 2 (38:27):
You guys, a degenerate gambler. Okay, well, what is that
to describe? How you know that?
Speaker 11 (38:32):
I mean, I'll bring you back to the beginning. I mean,
we met on a dating app which I don't want
to say the name of. We asked you know, I
asked her out for some drinks and we went out
and it was going fine until she pulled her phone
out and literally was gambling the entire date.
Speaker 1 (38:48):
All right, did you go out with Kaylin from our show?
Speaker 6 (38:52):
No?
Speaker 2 (38:53):
It sounds like most of my experiences with her lately,
so it wasn't her, right, right?
Speaker 1 (38:59):
What a fine what a fine wife? You would be?
Speaker 2 (39:02):
So okay, So she's pulling her phone out and she's
and she's obsessed with her gambling app while she should
be conversing with you. That's your problem.
Speaker 11 (39:12):
Yeah, she kept telling me we needed to hit in
order to win our parlay. I don't even really know
what that means. I've never cambled before.
Speaker 2 (39:21):
I see. Oh, well that was nice to include you.
You know her process. Now would you have gotten some
of the winnings if the parlay had hit?
Speaker 11 (39:29):
I don't know. I couldn't even get her attention enough
to know that.
Speaker 2 (39:32):
Okay, now I didn't I have to ask, like, are
you being dramatic or was the date really focused on
her and her gambling and winning.
Speaker 11 (39:40):
I mean she never stared at me at any point
of the date. It was either at the phone or
at the TVs. And I mean, I can understand if
you're betting on basketball or football, but I mean she
was betting on these crazy sports like ping pong, bowling,
anything that she could find at the bar. It was
super weird.
Speaker 2 (39:57):
Ping pong, table tennis. For the professionals, Uh, so be it.
But bowling, I mean, of course you can, you can
bet on anything but bowling. I mean you'd have to
know something about bowling.
Speaker 1 (40:08):
To bet on.
Speaker 2 (40:08):
That, wouldn't you. I wouldn't even know who'd bet on.
Let me, let me bring Jennifer in. I forgot to
mention that Jennifer is here. I'm very forgetful. Jennifer.
Speaker 11 (40:14):
What, oh God?
Speaker 1 (40:16):
Why why are we not focused on our date? On
our date?
Speaker 2 (40:19):
I mean, I can see why this guy thinks that
you're you maybe have a problem.
Speaker 1 (40:23):
You should call a number.
Speaker 13 (40:24):
I mean, I thought it was I thought we were
having fun. I think he's being way too uptight. I
was trying to involve him and make it fun for
both of us.
Speaker 2 (40:31):
But ping pong and bowling. I mean, so you'll there's
really nothing outside of the scope of what you'll bet on.
Speaker 13 (40:36):
I mean, just because it's not common doesn't mean there's
not anything in it. I mean, I don't think that seriously.
Speaker 4 (40:41):
I'm just trying to make rent this month.
Speaker 6 (40:43):
But it's not that serious to me.
Speaker 2 (40:49):
Yeah, it's not a big deal, just trying to make
rent so you have a place to live. I would
say that's that's maybe a little bit more. You're you're
relying on, relying on a little bit more than just entertainment.
Speaker 13 (41:00):
I mean, I wouldn't say that it's just you know,
here and there.
Speaker 4 (41:02):
It kind of fills the gap between employment.
Speaker 2 (41:05):
So this this guy takes you on a date and
instead you're staring at your app and you're staring at
the TV, and you're trying to figure out, you know,
how to get an edge on women's javelin.
Speaker 11 (41:16):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (41:16):
And I guess I can see why it would be annoying.
I mean that that's your that's your issue, right, Will
is like, we're on a date, and not only are
you not paying attention to me, but obviously you're like
you have to win this in order to survive kind
of stuff.
Speaker 11 (41:29):
I mean, I think it was way out of hand
and I could definitely never trust her with money related stuff,
especially for rent.
Speaker 2 (41:35):
Uh huh, Well, yeah, I have your money and you
shall gamble it on uh you know, World Chase tag
or something which you can watch on ideas, right, right, No.
Speaker 11 (41:49):
I mean, I mean I don't want to come across
as rude, but I'd honestly go as far to say
at this point that she's nuts.
Speaker 1 (41:54):
Oh oh okay, yeah, but maybe take a break for
the date.
Speaker 13 (42:01):
I could have done that, but I mean I just
thought he was enjoying himself too, so I figured why
not involve him.
Speaker 1 (42:07):
Yeah, it turns out he wasn't.
Speaker 2 (42:08):
But okay, so look I'll ask the question, will you
know Jennifer did want to see you again, she did
think it was a good date. If she doesn't gamble
during the date itself, would you consider going out with
her again? If she doesn't ask you to borrow money
or for any kind of a loan, would you go
out with her again?
Speaker 11 (42:24):
I don't know. I got to be honest with you.
This is just this whole experience is in a bit
too much. I'm now on radio trying to defend myself,
so probably not.
Speaker 2 (42:31):
Yeah, smart, you don't have to defend yourself. You know,
you're just telling your side of the story. But all right, look, Jennifer,
it's not going to work out. Well, thank you for answering.
I wish you the best, Jennifer. Good luck. And there
is a phone number and a website if you need it.
Speaker 1 (42:46):
Oh, come on.
Speaker 13 (42:46):
Now, all right, I'll take note.
Speaker 2 (42:49):
Thank you.
Speaker 8 (42:49):
Fred Show is on Fred's Fun Fact so much, Let's
learn so much.
Speaker 2 (43:02):
So, guys, when you think of the caesar salad, do
you think of Italian food?
Speaker 1 (43:09):
Do you think of Italy?
Speaker 5 (43:11):
I feel like, yeah, because it's always offered at an
Italian spot.
Speaker 2 (43:18):
I think of Heaven, yeah right, right, which could yeah
exactly well, it feels like something that would have been
inspired by Julius Caesar in Rome. But actually it was
invented by an Italian American restaurant tour in Mexico named
Caesar Cardini in Tijuana. Actually, according to Food and Wine,
he moved to the city, which is close to the
(43:38):
California border, to escape the confines of prohibition, and he
developed the caesar salad during the Fourth of July rush
in nineteen twenty four with the only ingredients he had left.
Speaker 6 (43:49):
Wow, so the guy was like a little.
Speaker 2 (43:50):
Bit of this, a little bit of that, a little
bit of this for calling this thing this Caesar salad.
Speaker 3 (43:54):
After your boy, right, sa salad?
Speaker 11 (43:58):
Right?
Speaker 2 (43:59):
Nobody ever says this our salad. And if you said that,
if you went to this place and he said, I'll
have a cisar salad, they would say, are you Fred
from the Fred Show who makes everything sounds fans fancier
than it needs to be, And you say, no, I'm not.
I listened to the fun fact though, that I happen
to know that it was invented in Mexico, so there,
but it was by an Italian American man named Caesar
(44:20):
Cardini in Mexico. That's where the Caesar salad was invented.
Are you are you? Are you blown away?
Speaker 1 (44:26):
Kiki?
Speaker 6 (44:27):
Yes, that's a life lesson. That man made something out
of nothing. That's right, and look at it, it's still around.
Speaker 2 (44:32):
Did you making a positive message out of this? What
we do every day makes something out of nothing and
was still around. It's like the old Cesar salad.
