(02:35):
how good? How big of a listener are you?

Speaker 3 (02:38):
Hello?

Speaker 1 (02:38):
Sence is required, That's what I'm saying. If you're part
of the thirteen, then I expect that if we're anywhere

Got it one here. Well, yeah, we'll talk about it.
I need to interview these people baked weekend morning. I

Show is odd Wednesday, halfway there October Ay, Ty Kalen, Hello,

(03:25):
Jason's out today, back tomorrow. Hi, Paulina, Hey, hike k
Good morning, Shelby Shelley two hundred bucks in the showdown
Game Show Wednesday two game win streak. We're play in
about twenty minutes. Bella means here on the phone and
the text eight five five five nine one one three
five almost done hour commercial free. Fred Show starts right
now the Entertainer report after a new waiting by the

(03:47):
phone and blogs. What are you working on? K big news?

Speaker 4 (03:50):
If you were a fan of that game wordle, I
know a lot of people are still addicted to that
we are talking post malone, and then Keith Urban and
what he's up to with those chunky highlights and that
strange are part of hair.

Speaker 1 (04:02):
The text is alive. This morning, someone said that they
talked about us in their Bible study. Hopefully it was
that you were praying for us.

Speaker 2 (04:09):
Now how do we get there?

Speaker 1 (04:11):
And then other people are saying that we're not vocal
enough about certain political issues, but we don't talk about
politics on this show, so how could we be Well,
we have many, many times in the last fifteen years
spoken out about things that we are against and are
not in favor of. So unless you've listened to everything
we've ever said that, I would appreciate it if you
didn't text up here and talk about all the things
that we're not doing. Unless you, hey, if you have

(04:34):
a transcript of everything that's been said on this show
and everything that we've all done in public media in
the last you know, however, many years been by all means.
But we try not to be political, and unfortunately that
sometimes means that we are maybe not as vocal about
some things as others because we don't talk about politics.

Speaker 4 (04:51):
Yeah, we work for a corporation, so sometimes like in
our personal life, we can have opinions or whatever.

Speaker 1 (04:57):
Well, for the record, no one's telling us we can't
say it. It's just I don't want to put that
out there.

Speaker 4 (05:01):
No, No, I'm just saying like, I'm not going to
say everything that I feel in my heart on a
show that's for everyone.

Speaker 1 (05:07):
Well, yeah, you know, I think it's just more we
stay away from certain topics because they're everywhere, and I
just feel like this is a place of a reprieve
from all of that. But on our personal socials and
various other places, you might see some comments about things
and you can engage with us there on that stuff.
So you can talk to me there. Yeah, so let's
do a blog. Yeah, they talk better than they These

(05:32):
are the radio blogs on the Fred Show. I think
we're running in our diaries, except we say them a lot.
We call it blogs. Cakke yo, take it away? Man,
Oh my goodness.

Speaker 3 (05:42):
All right, So this whole wedding planning thing is tough,
and I know every bride has been through this. I'm
not unique to this experience, but I am a certified
people pleaser, and being a people pleaser is not going
well with this whole bridal process. So Caitlin had to
have a little to you know, the Lord talk with
me the other day about peek. You're gonna have to

(06:04):
just make a decision and stop worrying about how far
you know, Fred is gonna have to drive, or how
you know if Ryan doesn't like chicken and Jason doesn't
want to be She was like, you have to just
pick like lady, you know, And so I took that
into consideration.

Speaker 1 (06:19):
I think I'm getting closer with the venue.

Speaker 3 (06:21):
However, it is now time to select the bridal party
and I can't do this. I really just want to
put a filler out there. Actually, right now, this is
a message. If you think that you should be in
my bridal party, hit me up and let me know.

Speaker 1 (06:35):
I mean, I know, I mean it. So then who else,
who else has a problem with it? After me?

Speaker 3 (06:39):
So you feel that you should be in Big Tim's
bridal party?

Speaker 1 (06:44):
Oh no, no, I should be in your. I don't
know Big Tim because you've never introduced me, Jym, so
I know you want to be a bride's maid. I do,
got you? Yeah, No, that's it's obvious though, but I
don't even know what we're talking about. That So let's
move on to other people who are disgruntled.

Speaker 3 (06:57):
Well, it can't just be you, So like I need
to know, oh, who else wants to be in this
bridal party so that I can make sure that I
don't exclude anyone because you know, I was a wage sister.

Speaker 1 (07:08):
Ryan, you're you're a photographer and personal assistant me, I'm
actually his personal assistant. But yeah, and then I don't
know who else. I mean, that's it right, I'm sure
you know some other people.

Speaker 3 (07:19):
I don't know, but I don't understand how brides narrow
this whole thing down. And probably and I know you've
been through this. Yeah, catch your girls in their power suits?
I sure did. Was anyone left out or mad that
they didn't get a pink power suit? Or like, how
did you make how did you make the decision?

Speaker 1 (07:34):
Girl?

Speaker 3 (07:34):
Because I can't make a decision to save my life,
I feel like they should tell me if they want
to rock with me.

Speaker 2 (07:39):
Yes, I hear that. I don't think anybody was mad.

Speaker 5 (07:42):
Nobody vocalized they were mad, and like, to be honest,
like at this big age, like it's probably lowki a
bigger blessing not to be earls because I see how
much Kailyn has spent in that credit card Billy.

Speaker 1 (07:54):
Being a guest.

Speaker 5 (07:54):
It's very expensive, and that's why I was very specific.
I was like, Hey, we're gonna go to Sheen dot com.
We're gonna get twenty nine dollars power suits and we're
gonna wear that. And I bought them like vans, like
matching fans is a gift or whatever. That's all I wanted,
right because I was like, I know, this is very expensive.
But I did have a big bridal party that I
look at it. I had like what six friends and
three family members. Okay, so it's nine people on my side. Yeah,

(08:15):
so's the girls in the gays with me and then
hab I had it. We had a pool cousins and stuff,
just so we can like match.

Speaker 1 (08:20):
Him, you know what I mean. So we have enough people.
Oh so he had to match your number?

Speaker 2 (08:23):
Yeah exactly, only has like two friends.

Speaker 1 (08:25):
I mean, so do I. But and then he's like
a lot of cousins.

Speaker 2 (08:27):
So we made it work.

Speaker 1 (08:29):
Yeah. But yeah, you need to do whatever you This
is your day, what you want, Like, it doesn't matter
who who, how far away it is, or who gets
their feelings hurt. You get one shot at this maybe
two they'll get it, so you don't. It doesn't matter
what anyone else thinks about this.

Speaker 3 (08:46):
And everyone is saying that, but it really a wedding
is really for your guests. You want them to enjoy
the experience.

Speaker 1 (08:52):
Not okay, no, it's not.

Speaker 6 (08:53):
It's for you.

Speaker 2 (08:54):
It's you're one day to be selfish. This is the
best day of your life. Hopefully it happens once.

Speaker 1 (08:59):
Right, right, right, It's not about your guests at all.

Speaker 6 (09:01):
Zero.

Speaker 1 (09:02):
I want you all to have a good time. I
want you to enjoy yourself. Well, if you're happy, then
we should have a good time. And that's I think
people miss that. Yeah, and they spend money on a
bunch of crap. I've said this a thousand times. They
spend money on a bunch of crap that they think
will make their guests happy, when no one remembers any
of it. Because it just needs to reflect you and
make you happy and be within your budget and not

(09:22):
stress you out. And it will anyway. Yeah, And there's
no way to choose a group of people five or
six or seven or ten or whatever. There's no way
to choose that group and not alienate someone. It's impossible.
So while that's very difficult, I'm sure there's just no
way around it. So I think you just have to
accept the fact that someone's going to be angry. We're
old enough now that we have enough friends and acquaintances

(09:44):
and people who think that they play a certain role
in our lives, and they may be important. But unfortunately
there's only so many slots for so many things, and
so there are people who won't get invited, and there
are people who won't it won't be convenient for them.
And there are people who won't be in the wedding
part next to me, you know, who will be very
upset about it. And uh, and I'm sorry, but you

(10:06):
can only make the best decisions for you. This is true.
This is true.

Speaker 3 (10:09):
But if you feel in your heart that you should
be in my bridal party, just tell me.

Speaker 1 (10:13):
Now, I just love you as you are on the list.
You know what I'm saying.

Speaker 2 (10:20):
You're right, you are on the long side of that.

Speaker 1 (10:23):
I just don't I.

Speaker 3 (10:25):
I could just imagine if somebody feels like like they
should absolutely stand next to me on my day and
I don't pick them.

Speaker 1 (10:31):
Oh, I don't want that smoke. So actually, as a
guy who wants to be invited, but then doesn't want
to have to go. I'm going to your wedding. Thank
you for including me and your bridal party. I respectfully
declared you with me, we can do it. I can
walk around the wedding. Yes, she asked me, do we
even know we're going?

Speaker 2 (10:47):
We have not been invited by that's you too.

Speaker 1 (10:50):
I've known you for eight years or something, and I
have never met Big Tim. So so you're right, you're
a very good Are you even going to tell us
where it is?

Speaker 4 (10:59):
Yes?

Speaker 1 (11:00):
You guys, do whatever you want, just don't make me
be The've ever been left waiting by the phone. It's
the Fred Show. Hey Mark, good morning, Welcome to the program.
How are you, good morning, How are you doing okay?
What's going on with this woman Casey? We got to
know how you met, about any dates you've been on,

(11:21):
and then why you think you're being ghosted?

Speaker 7 (11:23):
Yeah?

Speaker 8 (11:23):
So I met Casey on one of the dating apps
that are obviously very popular and which had.

Speaker 7 (11:29):
It for a bit.

Speaker 8 (11:30):
I got her number and we're both sort of playing
the date. I'm pretty assertive, and so I wanted to
kind of get right into.

Speaker 7 (11:36):
It and get into a sort of a meet and greet.

Speaker 8 (11:39):
It's because you know, it's easy to get lost in
the next if you don't pretty much on these apps.
We both lived in the suburbs, so I picked a
place to meet for dinner and we had a great meal.
You know, I really felt like we had fun, and
you know, before we parted ways at the end of
the night, I suggested, Hey, what's hevin dinner again?

Speaker 7 (11:57):
And she agreed. She thought it was a good idea,
But she.

Speaker 8 (12:01):
Hasn't responded to me since the date. She was previously
pretty quick to apply to my texts and stuff, but
something changed and I just don't.

Speaker 7 (12:11):
Know what happened.

Speaker 1 (12:11):
Okay, all right, so I like it. You know, you
matched with her. It's like, hey, let's get right to this,
because you're right. What happens is, you know, people are
matching constantly or getting more than one match and then
trying to juggle, and then you get lost in the
process on the dating apps if you haven't been on them,
and so you're like, hey, I want to meet you.
I'm attracted to you, you seem cool. It's going a date.
You planned it, you went, you suggested the place. Even

(12:33):
I mean, this dude planned the date. It wasn't okay,
let's go out and then what do you want to do?
And you know, and then basically make the other person
planned the date like I tend to do. But nonetheless,
all of this went well. You even asked for confirmation
at the end of the date. Am I going to
see you again? She said yes? But you're now you're
being ghosted. Now you're not getting any responses from her,
and you want to know why that's.

Speaker 8 (12:55):
You're right, like, the date went well and we made
a plan to each other again, but now I haven't
heard from her.

Speaker 1 (12:59):
All right, Well, let's play a song. Mark, we'll come
back in a couple of minutes. We'll call Casey. You'll
be on the phone. We're going to see if we
can get her on the phone, ask the questions on
your behalf of You're welcome and jump in at some point.
And the hope is that we can straighten all of
this out and then set you guys up on another day,
the second day that we pay for. Okay, Hey, Mark,
let's call Casey. You guys met on one of the

(13:20):
apps and you planned a date. You went out, you
went to dinner, you thought everything went really well. You
asked her on the date. Hey, you want to go
on another date? She said, yeah, except you've reached out
to plan that date and she hasn't responded to you
at all. And you want to know why you're being ghosted?

Speaker 7 (13:35):
Yes, I would love to know exactly.

Speaker 1 (13:37):
Well, let's call Casey now. Good luck Mark?

Speaker 2 (13:48):
Hello?

Speaker 1 (13:49):
Hi is this Casey?

Speaker 6 (13:51):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (13:51):
Yeah, Hi Casey, Good morning. My name iss Fred. I'm
calling from the Fred Show, the morning radio show. The
whole crew is here, and I do have to tell
you that we are on the radio right now, and
I wouldn't your permission to continue with the call. Can
we chat for just a couple of minutes? You can
hang up anytime, okay, Okay, I guess okay, Well, good,
thank you. I'll take it. No, it does happen, and

(14:12):
I'll take it as a yes. But we're calling on
behalf of a guy who reached out to us. His
name is Mark. I guess you met him on one
of the dating apps. You guys had dinner recently. Do
you remember meeting Mark?

Speaker 6 (14:22):
Uh? Yeah, yeah, I do.

Speaker 1 (14:25):
Okay, Well, he called us and had nice things to
say about you, that he was excited to meet you
and planned a date said, you guys went to dinner.
He says he asked you on the date if he
could see you again. He says that you said yes.
He then said that he's been reaching out trying to
get a hold of you and and you haven't responded
in any way. We had no trouble getting a hold
of you. So what's what's the issue?

Speaker 6 (14:45):
Yeah, no, I guess, uh, yeah, I guess he hasn't
really been getting the hints EPI. So it's funny that.

Speaker 1 (14:54):
Okay, well why would he need why would he need
to get the hints if you told him? And I'm
not saying you did anything wrong, but you said you
want to see him again, So he has been changed.
But what happened?

Speaker 6 (15:03):
Oh okay, I feel bad about that. And okay, I
guess I get Can I tell you about our date?
And I guess maybe that's like some context?

Speaker 1 (15:13):
Okay, yeah, yeah, he said that you guys met in
the suburbs because you both live in the suburbs and
you met at a restaurant. Okay, so then yeah, great, Yeah.

Speaker 6 (15:22):
We had like a really nice banter before you know,
he had attractive pictures and he took me to Olive
Garden for dinner, which is which is fine, you know, like,
you know, maybe my other first date, they're usually at
non chain restaurants.

Speaker 1 (15:40):
I was gonna say, I don't I don't really hate
olive Garden. I mean, I don't know if that's so
you're saying you're used to going to like I don't know,
neighborhood places or whatever. But anyway, he picked olive Garden,
so you okay, yeah, he.

Speaker 6 (15:52):
Picked it like a Chaine, which is you know, actually
I don't have a problem with olive Garden either. You know,
it's down to earth, so it's a pretty down choice
for him to make, and you know, it's good looking
and charming. I guess it was just a little less
charming when it was time to order. Uh, Like, he
went for the never ending Possible, which is cool.

Speaker 7 (16:15):
You know, that's not a big deal.

Speaker 1 (16:17):
Yeah, it's great and it is a lot of value
of value there. Yeah, eat as much as you want, okay,
all right, okay.

Speaker 6 (16:27):
Yeah, so yeah, but that was exactly what Mark wanted
to do. He made it clear from the start that
he was going to get his money's worse, like and
it was cute at first, like two three bowls, but
then he started making a scene like acting like some
posa mob guy, like.

Speaker 1 (16:46):
When this bowl is half empty, you.

Speaker 6 (16:47):
Bring another, Okay, okay. He's very enthusiastic about this never
ending possible.

Speaker 8 (16:56):
And then it's getting into like bowl six and seven.

Speaker 6 (17:01):
He went to the bathroom and came back and tried
to order three more bold ass one.

Speaker 1 (17:06):
Oh wow. He was a competitive eating situation, like he
he wanted to impress you with how much he could consume.

Speaker 6 (17:15):
Uh yeah, I guess it was yeah, like the showboat,
he was really showboating, I guess. But I mean he's
trying to like order so much at once, and the
and the servers explaining, you know, it's just one at
a time. So I'm getting a little embarrassed. And then
fast forward two hours, like I'm I've been done eating,

(17:36):
like I can have like two bowls at most. Maybe
he's on bowl number twelve or thirteen.

Speaker 1 (17:43):
You had to sit there for like another forty five
minutes an hour or whatever and watch him just like
I don't know, just I don't know whatever to shovel
this stuff into his mouth.

Speaker 6 (17:52):
Yeah, literally shoveling, like the whole wedge of parmesan had
been had been like down to the rhine and then
he finally called it and like, I'm sorry, I was
a little disgusted. It looked like he was in pain.
It doesn't even look like.

Speaker 1 (18:08):
He was enjoying it, really, so you were not impressed,
that's what you're saying. It didn't turn anyone.

Speaker 6 (18:14):
Exactly, But then what maybe the exact opposite. Oh I mean,
and then he tried to negotiate like a to go
order with the waiter even more and very well person
and then wanted them to leave all the empty bowls
so I could take a picture of him.

Speaker 8 (18:29):
So I don't know if it's like.

Speaker 6 (18:32):
He's bus competitive, it's just all lacking.

Speaker 1 (18:36):
And I forgot you mentioned that that Marcus here, Mark.
You didn't mention any of the competitive eatings. You didn't
mention any any of this, like seventeen bowls Aposta thing
and he made us sit there and watch you do this.
You didn't mention any of that.

Speaker 8 (18:49):
Okay, Look, I can't believe that this is an issue. Okay,
it's never ending fasta. This is what you're supposed to do.
You're supposed to eat as much as you can. That's
what they want you to do.

Speaker 7 (18:58):
Mary. Why would not get as much as possible.

Speaker 1 (19:01):
I don't think I don't think that's true. I don't
think that they're anticipating that the average person on a
date is going to eat seventeen bowls of pasta. Like
I think it's sort of I don't think you're supposed
to take it that literally, right? Do you have food
out right right that it's never ending? Actually, Like I
think it's more of like, oh wow, I can have
as much as I want, and maybe you splurge on
an extra bowl or something. But you know, it's the

(19:22):
seventeen bowls the picture, it's it's making her watch you
do this. It's then try to negotiate the that's a go.
I mean there's kind of a lot of layers here.

Speaker 2 (19:30):
What if she wanted to hook up?

Speaker 1 (19:32):
Like, how would you pull that? I mean I realized
you carbo loaded, but like you know, I mean I
don't think I could function after that?

Speaker 8 (19:38):
No, how can you not bely not be impressed with me?

Speaker 1 (19:47):
He was killing me?

Speaker 6 (19:49):
It's just like just because you can. You never stopped
to ask why or if you should. And like seventeen
bowls is no exaggeration either. It's just like it's it's
not really a great first impression.

Speaker 1 (20:02):
I think you're not allowed to that out of garden anymore.
I think they banned you. I think you ate enough
never ending passive for the entire promotion.

Speaker 8 (20:10):
Like the menu probably, I mean they seemed like they
were they were enjoying me eating all that pasta.

Speaker 7 (20:16):
I thought you were having a good time.

Speaker 8 (20:17):
I felt good in the moment, and you know.

Speaker 1 (20:21):
With you or laughing at a certain point. I mean
you were making a spectacle. It sounds like and then
ordering people around, you know, as I don't know, and
I don't think that's date activity. It's certainly not first
date activity.

Speaker 6 (20:34):
No, maybe like something you revealed to me later on
and it's like, oh wow, this was like a secret
in talent or it's just you're really enthusiastic about pasta
or or or deals.

Speaker 7 (20:47):
Yeah, you were impressing me by putting there. It is.

Speaker 1 (20:51):
I was like, were you trying to get a good
deal or were you trying to impress her? And he
keeps bringing up that he was trying to impress her
and it didn't actually did not impress her at all.
Let me ask this question, though, Casey on his behalf,
maybe we don't go to any kind of like never
ending situation. But we'll pay for another date if you'd
like to try and go out with him again, and
maybe he'll agree to not competitive eat on the date.

Speaker 7 (21:13):
I mean it's a hard sell.

Speaker 6 (21:15):
It's a hard sell because like, uh, I can't really
get the image of all the pasta sauces.

Speaker 7 (21:22):
Kind of Yeah, how.

Speaker 1 (21:24):
Did you feel after that? I mean, that's a lot
of that's a lot of probably, I don't know. I
don't know what sauce you got, the different sauce choices,
but it's just a lot. Yeah.

Speaker 6 (21:35):
Maybe I'm pretty sure he needed some gas ex and
anti acids after Like.

Speaker 1 (21:42):
How did you feel for the next couple of days?

Speaker 8 (21:44):
Look at I'm a grown guy. I like to eat,
and I felt fine. Everything went down fine, everything came
out fine, it was.

Speaker 1 (21:49):
Great, Okay, good news. All right. Look, so she's not interested.
It doesn't seem so Mark. Look, I wish you the best, Casey,
thank you for your time. Good luck to you as
well out there. And maybe maybe we toned down and
the sort of boasting how much we can eat on
the first date. That's my advice to you. Caitlin's Entertainment Report.
He's on the Bread Show.

Speaker 4 (22:10):
An old clip of Maggie Baw, that twenty five year
old guitarist currently touring with Keith eb and is currently
going viral.

Speaker 2 (22:18):
On social media. One thing about the Internet. There go
find something if there was something.

Speaker 4 (22:23):
So apparently she once made it clear that she had
a very strict personal rule she wouldn't date fellow band members.
In the twenty seventeen interviews, she explained her reasoning was
playing what happens if we break up, acknowledging the complications
that come, the mixing romance and excuse me romance, and
work on the road. Those comments, of course, are resurfacing
as Keith Urban and Nicole Kidman are getting divorced. Nicole

(22:46):
filed after nineteen years of marriage, and a song The Fighter,
that Keith wrote for Nicole dedicates to Nicole. He has
been changing the words to either include Maggie, be about
Maggie while.

Speaker 2 (23:00):
They are touring.

Speaker 4 (23:01):
So I don't know if it's a simple thing where
he's like, I don't want to sing about someone I'm
getting divorced from, or if there's more to it, which
a lot of people think. I should also mention that
her dad says that she is not deadling Keith Urban,
which I can't imagine if.

Speaker 3 (23:12):
My dad had come out and say that's good.

Speaker 1 (23:15):
That's why I trust my dad.

Speaker 4 (23:17):
Better not be coming out telling telling people.

Speaker 3 (23:20):
What I love to the first person you tell you diddling,
if you want to know, he'll tell you.

Speaker 1 (23:26):
You know.

Speaker 2 (23:26):
I accidentally texted your dad the other day and I
was like.

Speaker 1 (23:31):
Said, one, he's at home putting legos together.

Speaker 4 (23:33):
I think I was trying to text Jason or someone
and I texted your dad and I was like, oh, no,
one sound none sogned, and we see does anyone still
play wordle? I know it's like a time and a thing,
but I still know people who do not not in
this room?

Speaker 2 (23:45):
Okay, got it? Tough crowd.

Speaker 4 (23:47):
NBC is developing a game show version of Wordle, with
Jimmy Fallon as a producer.

Speaker 1 (23:57):
Is my buddy cale is I'm here to talking about
wort about Oh I got Taylor Swift is here?

Speaker 2 (24:06):
I thought, I thought, what do you think I.

Speaker 6 (24:08):
Thought of you?

Speaker 4 (24:09):
Specifically Fred, not Jimmy, Because Jimmy was on Watch What
Happens Live and across the floor in front of Andy.

Speaker 2 (24:16):
He jumped on Andy, twirling his chair.

Speaker 4 (24:18):
He was upside down, he did cartwheels, he took his
jacket off like that.

Speaker 1 (24:22):
Man, Wow, do I have to stop it? What do
I have the audio of him interviewing Taylor Swift. It's
so it was so unbelievably difficult to listen to there.
He doesn't let anybody talk interview.

Speaker 4 (24:35):
Yeah, I mean he was very excited for her. But yeah,
he's he's a lot.

Speaker 2 (24:39):
He's got a lot of interney, a lot, Savannah.

Speaker 1 (24:41):
Got just it's just like it's impossible, like it's you know, yeah,
so I was, you know, I was in the UK
in the UK. You're in the UK, was waiting for
London in the UK, and I was with my friend,
you know whomever, Jack Ante I love Jack Jack Buddy,
my buddy, my pal, my buddy.

Speaker 4 (25:01):
No one loves everything, right, Savannah Garthrie is you know
from the Today Show who I Love? Will host the pilot,
And since it is in the pilot stage, it's not
gonna be guaranteed to air, but obviously it's still insanely popular,
so it has a good chance of making it into production,
and if it does, it's probably gonna have to go
beyond a single person solving puzzles.

Speaker 2 (25:19):
Ideally, making it faster paced.

Speaker 4 (25:21):
Competitive, possibly taking cues from formats like lingo. So if
you are into wordle, you might be getting a show.
Post Malone, speaking of shows, is planning a pop up
concert in broad on Broadway in Nashville tonight to celebrate
the grand opening of his new bar Postise. One thing
about I'm sure here's your buddy.

Speaker 2 (25:40):
Your one thing about country singers is you need.

Speaker 4 (25:42):
To have a bar on Broadway and now he has posts.
The event is intended, of course, to coincide with the
launch and get everyone excited. I know we have some
listeners in Nashville who always text us, So that one
is for you if you want to.

Speaker 1 (25:54):
Go to a bar like these guys, but I want
the same terms that they have, which is someone else
does all of the management of the bar. They just
put your name on it. And the other thing is like,
if you're at that level, then you're getting like the
best operators too, you know, like you're not this isn't
something like you know, crappy whatever like these guys are.
You know, they're going out and getting the best restaurant
tours and bar owners in the city. And then it's

(26:15):
like if it fails You're like, I don't know, I
don't know. I got my licensing on it. It's fine,
but I want like Fred show bar, but I don't
have to do any of it. What would Well, let
me think about this for a minute. Er, Okay, it
definitely would have cheese, Chris. We have a lot of
pickle offering of some kind for Kalin. Yeah, we have
the Pollina hot hot dogs. Yeah, finally my dream coming true.

(26:36):
We would my gosh, what we have in there. I
got to think about the concept a little further. But
burritos for Fred breakfast, Oh yeah.

Speaker 2 (26:45):
They would be chaotic.

Speaker 1 (26:46):
He'd be all over the place. It would be you know, yeah,
uh huh.

Speaker 2 (26:50):
I'll let you think about it and really quickly.

Speaker 4 (26:51):
If you are a fan of Vander Pump Rules or
The Valley Jax Taylor.

starting out modeling, he was roommates with Channing Tatum.

Him and Channing Tatum said absolutely not.

Speaker 1 (27:15):
He lied about me.

Speaker 4 (27:17):
He lied for years. He's like, I don't think I
ever roomed with him. He's like, when you're a model,
you kind of share houses. But I don't remember that.

Speaker 8 (27:22):
