is this Michelle? Yes, Michelle, good morning. My name's friend.
I'm calling for the Freends Show, the morning radio show,
and I have to tell you that we are on
the radio right now, and I would need your permission
(03:27):
to continue with the calls. And okay, if we chat
for a minute, yeah, Mill show you. No, it's not.
We're on the radio whole CRUs here, is it cool?
If we chat, I'll tell you what we're calling about.
I just need your permission first, okay, all right, Well,
thank you for calling on behalf of a guy named Steve,
who I guess you met on Hinge and you you
went out recently. Do you remember Steve? Yeah? I do? Okay, Well,
(03:52):
he called us, uh, Michelle, and he told us that
he had met you on Hinge and then he that
you guys chatted and planned a date and that you
went out and he he in short thought the date
went really really well, except he says he hasn't heard
from you since then. He's called these texts and all
these things. So what's going on? Why Why are you
not responding to him? This is so weird.
Speaker 4 (04:12):
Yeah, he's a he's a nice, interesting dude.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
I did have a good time with him. Uh.
Speaker 4 (04:20):
I actually we went back to his place and started
making out and it was actually really fun. But I
I saw this thing on his lower back and I was.
Speaker 1 (04:31):
Like, what is that? Uh? And then he saw his
lower back what is that?
Speaker 4 (04:37):
Huh? Well I didn't know what it was because I
was like, oh, is that a birthmark?
Speaker 1 (04:42):
No? What is that?
Speaker 4 (04:44):
And then all of a sudden, I was like, oh, no,
that's a tattoo. He is a lower back tattoo, okay,
which you know, whatever to each his own. But then
it's it's a Jordan jump Man tattoo.
Speaker 1 (05:00):
Yeah, And it looked like, hey, coming out as the
hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on Steve, Steve.
That's Steve, by the way, Michelle Steve. Oh yeah, I'm
very forgetful. I forgot that Steve this year. Now, hold on, Steve.
I need to hear more about the jump Man here.
So we'll get to you. We'll get to you, old
(05:20):
boy Jordan over here. But so wait a minute, so
it's placed like right above his crack, so what it
looks like. Oh yeah, I mean it's leaping out of
his eyes. Man. Yeah, okay, so this is the guy
likes Michael. He's a Jordan guy. Obviously, I'm a Jordan guy.
I don't have a lower back tattoo of anything. But
(05:42):
I mean, so the guy's a Michael Jordan's fan.
Speaker 4 (05:45):
Uh, I mean yeah, I get it, like, come on
a lower back tattoo.
Speaker 1 (05:51):
Also, to be very clear, I laughed when I first.
Speaker 4 (05:55):
Saw it, and I thought, okay, maybe it was like
a dare or something. And then I was like, oh,
this is like he didn't read as like a frat bro.
But I was like, oh, was it like hazing or something?
And then he said, no, I got it a couple
of years ago. We are in our thirties.
Speaker 1 (06:10):
Okay, so this wasn't like a drunk uh, you know,
no decision. This was a no thought that occurred relatively recently.
So Steve is here. You know that. Now, Steve, can
you explain the jumpman on your ass or I guess
above you? Yeah, our back tattoo of a Jordan Jumpman logo? Yeah.
Speaker 3 (06:27):
Yeah. Michelle likes there's so may good stories to this, Like,
for look, I was yeah. I was a big Jordan
fan growing up, right, But I used to watch the
games with my grandfather and I just wanted a way
to honor both. So, like, I mean, I don't say
that's such.
Speaker 4 (06:43):
A big deal, Steve, let me saying that you're gonna
make me look like an apple. No, I'm honoring your
grandfather by putting a tattoo by your accle.
Speaker 1 (06:57):
Was buy. We got to joke around it stuff like so, like,
I mean my grandpa. But for the record, it's not
near that. It's not near. I mean it's but it
sounds like it's close enough because I know what.
Speaker 3 (07:13):
Is okay, like yourself, Seriously, you're gonna refuse to see
me because of that. I mean, that's just like something harmless.
It's it's funny and like like I said, it's for
it's for honoring both my grandpa and uh, you know
the games.
Speaker 1 (07:29):
I mean, like this is at first, this is a first,
a lower back tattoo to honor my grandfather. I don't
know if either of them want that, Michael or your grandpa. Actually,
I mean Michael Jordan just texted me and he said, no,
that's all he put was exactly.
Speaker 4 (07:45):
It's just not okay, what do you have a tattoo
by yours?
Speaker 1 (07:49):
Is just do it? Like, come on, that's kind of
clipp be mad at that hot a second, do you?
Speaker 3 (07:59):
I don't, but yeah, yeah, I guess maybe I should.
But like Michelle, come on, you're being white too ticky,
Like I.
Speaker 2 (08:09):
Mean, Ricky, come on, but that was done in your thirties,
Like these are decisions that you know you may want
to like just well, we want to see it.
Speaker 3 (08:20):
I mean like they're going to see that my work
desk or something like when I go to the work,
I'm not going to have my lower back hanging out.
Speaker 4 (08:27):
Well, when you go to the gym, if you bend over,
I don't know, like people are going to see a
tiny little basketball hand coming out your crass.
Speaker 1 (08:36):
I think that the lower back tats you on a
man is a questionable decision anyway. Yeah, but then just
say it was sentimental on top of that, and then
the location like ha ha, he's jumping over my crack.
But also, you know, shout out to my grandfather, say yeah,
it's twenty twenty five.
Speaker 3 (08:58):
People do whatever they want. I I had some fun
with that, so I think Grandpa would just be laughing
his ass off, honestly, so you know.
Speaker 1 (09:09):
Yeah, okay, so so all right, the guy's got a
Jumpman logo over his crack, and so be it. Now, Look,
you liked him enough, you know, you had enough chemistry, Michelle.
Everything went well enough to get to the point where
you guys were having it, you know, some intimate fun.
So there. Obviously it was all fine until you saw this.
Would you consider letting this go and just accepting that,
(09:32):
you know whatever, You wouldn't do it, but you liked
him enough, and maybe we give him another shot, we
go on a second date. We'll pay for it.
Speaker 4 (09:39):
I mean, listen that he has a back tattoo. And
then he called a radio station. Like his decision making
isn't great?
Speaker 1 (09:51):
All right, it was a very sound, just excellent decision.
Speaker 3 (09:55):
That's fine, that's fine. See, like I said, you're just
see it's too ticky, like I mean, obviously you have
no sense of humor.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
And what do you I mean come on now? Yeah,
I mean, I'm sure going to the pool is an adventure.
But okay, look, so between up a conversation starter, well,
in some tender well you're right, and then in this case, yeah,
all right, well Michelle, thank you for picking up and
(10:23):
and good luck to you, Steve. I wish you the
best as well out there.
