Speaker 1 (00:00):
The Fred Show is on Fred's Biggest Stories of the Day.
West Sloop Tom knows the name of the place, west
Loop Tom's ext and that was the place. I'm not
gonna say it because it's not there anymore, but yeah,
he knows West Tom was. I think he was there
in the corner watching us eat.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
Actually I almost set the place on air, and I
was like, maybe.
Speaker 1 (00:18):
I don't know if it still exists anywhere, but yeah,
or that place in Salt Lake City that Kalin took
us that we were talking about out the air where
everything had elk in it everything, which is nothing wrong
with that. I mean, I'm sure it's delicious, but everything everything.
I'm like, guys, what do you own an elk farm?
And they were like, yeah, we do. Actually, I was, oh,
that makes perfect sense, everything, every everything, And I was like, well,
(00:39):
what if I don't want elk? Like you came to
the wrong place, Like y'all have a buckkn soda with
an elk beef jerky stick in the middle of it.
Speaker 2 (00:47):
I'm like, what are we doing? Guys?
Speaker 1 (00:49):
I never wanted anything more than just a cheeseburger in
my life than when you told me all I could
eat was that and again apparently we heard a whole
speech about it's a very lean meat, delicious, that very gamy.
That's when I'm told I just didn't want it because
I could not have it. I was like, y'all have
the chocolate cake. It has elk in it? How how
does it have elk? How did you get that in there?
Speaker 2 (01:11):
With elk? Milk right right right? We milked an elk?
Can we put it in there? We should have gone
with the Italian spot, that's one.
Speaker 1 (01:19):
But again, you know, it was like highly rated and
beautiful view and nice place, and that made sense. I
can see why you'd choose that, And it was member
was very nice there. It was just you know, had
a lot of options that a lot of variety on
the menu. So days before ten men broke out of
the Louisiana jail, officials asked for funding to fix faulty
(01:40):
locks and cell doors. According to the sheriff, yeah, that's
probably a good idea. The investigation into the Friday jail break,
which the escapees labeled as easy. So they cut a
hole in the wall behind a toilet, snuck out, and
then wrote above it easy lol, too easy, too to easy.
So we didn't you know, pay a whole lot of
attention and grammar school. But that's okay, too easy, lol.
(02:03):
And then they stuck up. So they're not only that,
but they're taunting the prison people, which okay, So there
are seven remaining fugitives or maybe six is of this morning,
but they have long raise concerns, according to the sheriff
about the jails defficiencies, adding that breakout has once again
highlighted the critical need for repairs and upgrades to the infrastructure.
(02:25):
While the sheriff said the locks played a key role
in the escape, there are other critical security lapses that
officials have outlined indications that the escape was an inside job,
including three sheriffs employees that are now on suspension. So
it's like these guys were in on it. They helped them,
Oh is what people are speculating. The whole that officials
said may have been formed using power tools. I don't
(02:46):
know how that would have would they have gotten the
power tools? A lack of monitoring of the cell pod.
As an employee that was tasked with the job, it
stepped out for food and law enforcement, not being aware
of the escape until the morning head count seven hours
after the guys got out.
Speaker 2 (03:01):
So you got one.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
Dude who like took a two hour break of his
job as the security guy. You got seven hours go
before they figure out these guys were gone, and then
they had you know, Makita drills in there. I mean,
I know they can do some really improvisational things in prison.
I mean I've seen how they can make you know,
toilet hooch and pizzas and all kinds of different things
(03:23):
on TikTok.
Speaker 2 (03:24):
But I mean, you know, get cell phones in and
all that.
Speaker 1 (03:27):
A Chicago O'Hare International Airport Uber d well, I guess
I got driving around O'Hare. He got himself in a
little bit of trouble because the airport had a security
scare over the weekend.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
It was at door desk driver actually not Uber.
Speaker 1 (03:39):
He was in Routius destination when he accidentally drove into
an unauthorized secured area within O'Hare and then kept driving.
The thirty six year old male went for miles within
the confines of the fence of the airport and incredibly
may have even crossed active runways before being stopped. No
charges have been filed because it was accidental. No word
(04:01):
on whether the food eventually made it to the right spot.
But this is where you maybe don't trust the GPS
when it says like federal property, don't cross this line.
I mean, how like, how lost do you have to
be before you're crossing runways and stuff going. I don't
think anybody on that Southwest flight ordered this food.
Speaker 3 (04:19):
I don't know. It's very confusing though, when you get
to the airport, you know, rivals and departures. I forget
what I'm doing, Like, am I arriving? I'm a department No, Kiki.
Speaker 1 (04:28):
The last time that we all ate together was at
the tallest restaurant in the city, I know, and you
had a hard time finding it. Yes, and it's literally
one of, not only one of the tallest buildings. The
restaurant was in the tallest building in the city. It's
one of the tallest buildings in the world, and you
still were not able to find it. So I guess
this is not surprising to me that you might have
issues navigating the airport.
Speaker 3 (04:47):
Yes, because the GPS gets all confused whenever you get
around a bunch of towers you get downtown, So I
can imagine his GPS probably got so confused with the planes.
GPS and you know, what is.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
It doing with the planes? GPS? What does that average
you with you?
Speaker 3 (05:00):
Air traffic control has been all mixed up for the
last couple of weeks, so it might have told him
to go right on up there.
Speaker 2 (05:06):
Just like the story of the.
Speaker 1 (05:07):
Guy whose GPS led him into a lake. It's like,
just because the GPS tells you that to do, you
don't have to. I am directly. You can look out
the window and say, I don't think that's I don't
think that's right. I don't think that I don't think
I'm supposed to be on the other side of gate
B nineteen. I don't think I was supposed to pull
up to the jetway to deliver this food.
Speaker 3 (05:28):
That man deserves a big tip.
Speaker 1 (05:29):
Oh well, yeah, he's probably like, he's not in jail.
A new TikTok trend is causing a big stir. Now, guys,
another week, another story about the thing that is obvious
that we do not need to do. Teen quote unquote
pranksters are pretending to steal money from unsuspecting strangers using
fake Apple pay transactions. So in one viral video, a
(05:53):
teen approaches a guy as for the time and then
pretends to tap his phone while playing a fake apple
Play sound effect. The guy becomes visibly upset, demanding to
see the team's phone, and then the team just says,
I just stole twenty dollars from you. But it's all
a joke. This is how you get yourself stabbed, right,
you know what I mean? Like, this is not funny,
(06:13):
Like you are pretending to rob someone, so you will
catch the wrong guy on the wrong day.
Speaker 2 (06:19):
And you'll deserve it. I'm sorry, don't do stupid stuff.
Speaker 1 (06:22):
So, like, let's not pretend that we're sealing from people.
These videos have guarded over nine hundred thousand views, have
also sparked backlash. Viewers are calling that pranks dangerous and embarrassing,
warning that such antis could lead to serious consequences. Critics
urge content creators to avoid targeting unsuspecting individuals and to
consider the real world implications of their actions. Yeah, someone's
gonna get beaten up at best. Oh if you snooze,
(06:46):
which I do, they're saying it's a bad idea. A
new study shows that more than half of people worldwide
hit the snooze button, with heavy users averaging twenty minutes
of snoozing each morning. Well, it might feel like a
few extra minutes of rest. Sleep experts caution that snoozing
disrupts the critical rem stages of sleep, leading to grogginess
and and then less RESTful start to your day. The
(07:07):
research analyzed over twenty one thousand sleep Cycle app users,
and it found that snooze habits vary by country. The US,
Sweden and Germany lead, Japan and Australia snooze the least.
Experts recommend setting your alarm for the latest possible time
and then getting up immediately to optimize your sleep quality
and daily performance. Because you're already kind of awake, so
the alarm goes off, you're not in rem sleep anymore,
(07:29):
so you feel like you're sleeping, but you're not actually
really getting any rest. So somehow you're best off just
standing right up, which takes I mean, that's that's incredible discipline. Yeah.
Can you imagine the alarm goes off and you just
stand right up and go I can't know, I don't
lay there, I grab, I turned the alarm off, and
I'm out of bad in seconds.
Speaker 2 (07:48):
Oh seeh that's my bigger ble. I snooze. I wake
up in fear every day. I don't know if it's
like the best move.
Speaker 1 (07:53):
Well, then I lay there for thirty minutes and write
emails and like do prep and stuff for the show,
look stuff up and yeah, own Like I've done everything,
almost everything before I even get out of bed. By
the time I come in here, it's like I've already
written you back. But they say it's a bad idea.
You supposed to only use the bed for sleeping. I
use the bed for everything. I only need a bed.
(08:14):
If there were a shower in the bed, I wouldn't
leave the bed. Like it's terrible. They call it sleep
hy jeans terrible, sleep high jens bad like my I
remember everything. Everything happens in the except for eating. No
eating in the bed as well, no eating food in
the bed. And Fortune dot com posted a list of
the top ten college degrees that earn the least amount
of money straight out of college, that being somewhere between
(08:35):
forty and forty two thousand dollars a year, So happy graduation.
Speaker 2 (08:38):
Number one.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
The least amount of money that you're gonna make is
a foreign language. So if you made your in like French,
then that's the lowest amount of money that you're gonna
make general social studies. I didn't know you could get
a social studies degree, performing arts, anthropology, early childhood education,
family and consumer sciences, general education by a lot of
(09:00):
sciences like lab tech or research, assistant social services, and
then theology and religion. So if you have any of
those degrees, savly you're going to make the least amount
of money. Also, the list of the lowest paying mid
career degrees, meaning you've been at it for a while
and you're still underpaid, radio is number One's not early
childhood education ranks last, followed by elementary education are the
(09:25):
two jobs at you know, mid career you're still not
making enough, So sorry about the stem stuff like science, technology, engineering,
and math. Those sorts of degrees apparently pay the best.
So if you just graduated, you know, then just start
over again. It'll be fine. It's National Rescue Dog Day.
Yay Rescue Dog Day. The entertainer of for Next in
