Speaker 1 (00:00):
This is the press show. Zame is taking over Las
Vegas this January for his seven Night Residents Adobe Live
at Park MGM, and we've got a trip for two
to the January twenty fifth show to Night Hotel State
Park MGM January twenty fourth through the twenty sixth and

(00:21):

Speaker 2 (00:45):
Someone hasn't vooded all of me and they're poking it.

Speaker 1 (00:48):
Okay, I'll stop. I'm sorry. Oh yeah, okay. I think
I've been poking it for years. I didn't think this
thing worked, but finally working out of context, that's going
to be something. I've been poking it for years and
I didn't think this thing works that please. Fred's show
is let me ask you this question. Almost every day
I get the same food item. I'm not going to
say where or what, but almost every day I get it,

(01:09):
and sometimes the price is different. I think it's because
they forget to add some people charge it differently than others.

Speaker 3 (01:16):
Hmmm.

Speaker 1 (01:17):
Is it my responsibility to point out on the days
where it is half the price that it should be
because someone didn't ring it in correctly. I go almost
every day, take your blessing. But let's say it's supposed
to be eight and some days it's six. On the
days that it's six, I don't say anything. You shouldn't know.
You'll make it up next time. And I go there
enough that I think it's fair. And it's also I
kind of think it's your job to like charge what

(01:39):
I'm supposed to pay. You don't want to do it
in a timely manner, Like I kind of think that's
your job to do that. I don't mean to be rude,
but you know, if I guess if we charged our customers,
our advertising partners, whatever, we charged it, and we went
back six months later and go, oh my god, I
forgot it was a million dollars more. I think we've
tried that. Actually it doesn't work now, it just heads up.
But that would be on us because we didn't properly.

(02:00):
You know, we didn't. We didn't price it appropriately correctly.
Happy New Year and see if it's the Fresh show.
Kiki has more issues with restaurants. And you know what's
interesting is I do too okay and So it's funny
that you you brought this up this morning because I've
noticed something too. It happened to me yesterday, but you
go first. So your latest this isn't this actually isn't
the latest grape. You've had this grape before about going

(02:20):
out to you.

Speaker 4 (02:21):
Oh yes, and it happened this weekend again, which like,
we got to do something about this.

Speaker 5 (02:27):
Man.

Speaker 4 (02:27):
We have to free our waiters from these long scripts
about whatever we're ordering and the history of the restaurant
and the history of the building and the history of America.
I don't want to hear it. I just want to order,
and I'm not trying. Like Kaylen, you would be very
proud of me. I sat there, gave I've made eye

(02:49):
contact for forty five Miraca, little student, Yeah, four five
minutes while I learned about the history of the cow
that I was about to see, And I'm just like,
why are you doing this? Like I know you don't
want to do this, and I don't want you to
do this, so like, why are we doing this?

Speaker 1 (03:02):
I learned about this on bar Rescue. John Taffer taught
me about this. The reason they do that is about
perceived value. So like if they sit there and talk
to you about the cow from where the steaks came from.
And they give you like a twenty minute spiel about
how they're the only people in the world that have
access to these magic cows that came from Jupiter, and
they fly down on a space ship that bushets to
you that can't get on, and they come down from

(03:24):
space and they're so tender because they've never actually been
in gravity before, or whatever. Whatever the story is. It
makes you think that whatever the price is is more worthwhile.
So then when they charge you seventy bucks for a steak,
you're like, well, I mean it's you know, it's Mars Prime.
You know, nobody else has that Mars Prime meat or whatever.

Speaker 4 (03:42):
Like I love you, but I don't care. I just
want to eat. And then like she would come back
and she was we would be in a deep conversation
with the people at the table, and she was like,
you know, excuse me.

Speaker 1 (03:53):
Okay, so you want it the garlic butter. Let me
tell you about the gardic butter.

Speaker 4 (03:56):
It was churned by somebody's grandma in nineteen seventy two.
I was holding on it until you came in here today.
And now we added.

Speaker 1 (04:04):
Special girl, I don't care. Write some garlic butter and
the butter twelve bucks. That's why, see it is.

Speaker 4 (04:10):
It's so I mean, we got we gotta wrap it
up man, word economy, bro please.

Speaker 1 (04:15):
Well, I went to this restaurant last night. I went
by myself because I'm I'm traveling, and I went as
his restaurant and my friends like, you gotta go there
and sit at the bar and like order you know,
the taco's there and then whatever. So I'm sitting there
and he tells me this earlier in the day, so
then I'm like, I'm gonna go. So I went and
I'm eating or the food didn't come yet. I got

(04:35):
the beer, I guess, and I took a picture of it.
And then my friend's like, oh no, wait, you got
to get the guacamole there too. You gotta get the guacamole.
So I stay at the bartender. I'm like, hey, I
know I just ordered half the menu, but can I
get the guacamole too. My friend says it's good, and
she just kind of stares at me for a second
and she goes, would you like that spicy extra spicy mild?
And I'm like, I don't know how spicy spicy, and

(04:57):
she goes, well, I'm about to make it for you,
so it's whatever you wanted to be. And she wasn't
like mean about it, but you could tell that she
was just sort of I guess it's table side guacamole,
but if you're at the bar, then the bartender has
to make it for you and they have a little
station behind the thing. But she just kind of looked
at me like really because I mean, again, not rude

(05:17):
or anything, but she's just probably tired of making guacamole.
Plus you got other stuff to do. I did not
realize this was a table side guacamole situation. Those sorts
of things make me uncomfortable. I tend not to order
them because I feel like, you know, like the table
side caesar salad, the guy's gotta come and it's getting
a little tray and the you know, the little cart,
and it's just the whole thing, and they it's like

(05:38):
you the only thing that guy wants to do that
you really think the guy wants to like chop up
the guacamole right in front, you know, the avocado right
in front. He probably not. I just figured it was
back in a kitchen somewhere they'd bring it to me,
and I immediately felt bad. As soon as she started
like chomping away at this thing instead of you know,
mixing drinks or whatever else she had to do, I
immediately felt bad. Now again, I think they can charge

(05:58):
you more because you know, if they do the banana foster,
the flambay or whatever by the table, then other people
see it, they want it, and then it looks like it,
you know, a lot more works, so more effort. I'm
shure they make more tips from it. So there's that.
But I'm I was uncomfortable watching her make like chop
up my avocada right in front of me. It's like,
it's like, I can go back there and do it.

(06:19):
It's no problem, you know, they just wouldn't let me.
But here's the thing. This is where I was going
with this. Eight five, five, five, nine one one three
five you can call in Texas, same number. The guacamole
was fire, Okay, I don't And here's the thing about
fire guacamole too. By the way, there's not really much
to it. I mean, I watched her do it. There's avocado,

(06:39):
there's lime, there's tomato, onion, and then jolapeno pepper, and
there may have been like salt and something else. No
no garlic, no garlic, No garlic and no garlic.

Speaker 6 (06:51):
No.

Speaker 1 (06:52):
And so I've made that mistake before. No no garlic
in guanamole. I And so, but I'm looking at this,
go why is this so damn good? Because you didn't
put any kind of crazy krack in there or anything.
I just watched you make it. So I don't know
why I was looking, but I got to think that
this woman in her private life, people are like make
the guacamole, Like, make guacamole. Hey, you you work at

(07:14):
this place, bring over, make the guacamole and bring it
over to the party. Or like when we did the
Beni Hannah thing a few weeks ago and the guy
let me do the the be the chef thing and
let me go back there and do that. I was like,
your friends must always be asking you to be like
the the habachi guy at the parties, right, because that
you work at Beni Hanna, and they must always be
asking you to do it. And he goes, yeah, they do,

(07:34):
and I tell him no, I'll do it for other
people if they hire me to do it, but I'm
not doing it for my friends, And so I just
I wonder, what is the thing whether it's what you
do now or what you did in your past, but
what is the thing that you now know how to
do when everybody wants you to do it because you
do and you're like, uh, you know, like if you're
a bar, like, for example, my brother in law is

(07:54):
a bar. He was a bartender, and so now my
mom thinks this is the greatest thing ever, and she
has the guy like batch make Margarita's before he leaves
town and put him in big jars and put him
in her refrigerator, like every drink has to be made
by him because he's a professional bartender and he's really
good at He's better at it than the rest of
us are. So like the guy is trying to evolve.

(08:15):
He's a computer programmer now, like I'm a bar so
much my past. Okay, we don't have to keep bringing
that up, but yet that's all that you know, everyone
wants him to be the bartender because it's like, you
know how to do it? Do you guys know how
to do anything that everybody wants you to do? All
the time. It's like you said it before.

Speaker 4 (08:31):
Your family always expects you to host like everything, like
it's a baby shower, here's give the mic to Fred.

Speaker 1 (08:37):
It's a funeral, Give the mic to Fred.

Speaker 4 (08:39):
It's like, I don't want to host this, like I
just want to attend.

Speaker 1 (08:43):
No, that is true. For whatever reason, I have to
give the yulog and anyone's funeral, anyone's funeral. It's like, hey,
you'll do it. I'm like, what do you mean I'll
do it. They're like, well, you're a public speaker. I'm like, no,
I'm not. I talk to my friends in a microphone
every day, and I guess people listen to it. Not many,
but I guess people listen to it. So why do
I have to go up there? It's a whole different thing,
you know, going up in front of a crowd of people,

(09:04):
especially if you're emotional about it or whatever. Why do
I have to be to one? Like let somebody else
did Surely somebody else, Amanda, you go do it. You're
a therapist who.

Speaker 4 (09:12):
Was hosting the parties before I got in radio, Like,
who was at the karaoke party before I became this?

Speaker 1 (09:19):
Because this is very stressful, Yes, Jason, I mean, I
feel like you do this to yourself, but you become
the organizer and the party planner for everything, Like you
basically were Paulina's wedding planner and you didn't you didn't
have that role, but you you decided on or either
I don't know, I don't know if you got kind
of encouraged into it or whatever, but you became the
wedding planner. You were the one ushering us all around

(09:41):
Las Vegas.

Speaker 7 (09:42):
Yeah, and I totally do that to myself because I
can't be anywhere and have people do things for me,
like I immediately feel uncomfortable to where I need to
like stand up and help, Like that's a personal flaw that.

Speaker 1 (09:54):
I'm working at my people, But no one asked me
to do that. I just assumed the position. Okay, So
the table's like walk them holy thing would have been
a real problem for you then, because it's like oh yeah,
oh yeah, no, no, no, yeah. I felt bad as Susim,
Oh you have to do it, like I don't want
it anymore. She's like no, no, no, it's okay, it's okay.
I felt bad though. Let's talk to Julie only click
on Julie. Wait, I think I just tried to call Julie. Julie,

(10:16):
how you doing. I'm good for you, guys, Julie, good morning.
So you are a nurse. I can only imagine if
you're a nurse or a doctor what that means.

Speaker 8 (10:25):
Oh lord, well, you know, I try not to tell
people when I'm out and about that I'm a nurse,
or even if I go to the doctor, I don't
tell him I'm a nurse because I just don't want
people to know. It's not that I'm ashamed or anything.
But the next thing, you know, they're like, hey, can
you look at this rash? Or can you look at
this I'm of this condition that, and you're like, oh

(10:48):
Jesus lord, I am not here to look at your body,
you know, really uncomfortable, and it's like, how do you
say no? You know, because it's what you do. But right,
that's the same poem. We're not doctors. We're not here
to diagnose or for you or anything.

Speaker 9 (11:06):
So that's exhausting.

Speaker 1 (11:08):
Oh I'm sure all my doctor friends hate meek. I
did the same thing because I'm paranoid and I I
have issues. So if there's anything weird going on, I
immediately have to get an answer, and I can promise
you that WebMD is not the answer I was looking for.
It's usually that I'm dying or we're dead. Usually I'm dead.
If I look at WebMD, I already died and didn't
know it because of a little bump on my knee

(11:28):
or whatever. But so then I have to send pictures
to my dermatologists. Friend. I mean, she must hate this
because it's like I'm not working right now. Bro, Like
you go to your doctor or make an appointment and
pay me, you.

Speaker 9 (11:39):
Know, exactly exactly.

Speaker 1 (11:42):
Yeah, what's the strangest thing someone's asked you to look at.

Speaker 8 (11:47):
An abscess on their anal area?

Speaker 1 (11:50):
Oh no, No, I'm not that good of a friend
with anybody.

Speaker 10 (11:53):
I know.

Speaker 1 (11:53):
I'll drive you, not in Mike, if you have an
abscess on your butt, it won't be in my car.

you there. Julie, thank you, have a great day. I'm

You're like, yeah, I can. You can come and you
can pay you know, whatever I charge, And but I'm
sure you don't do that to people, right yeah, And

work or which I've been doing this all day. I'm
all set with that, right yeah. I did it for
thirteen years, eight nine hours a day. It's like, yeah,

Have you seen that? This is another TikTok thing? Who
watches TikTok more? Apparently I do, because I've seen a
bunch of stuff that even Kiki hasn't, and she watches
it twenty three point six hours a day. It's this
very thing where someone fakes they're like in the room
with their mom, or they're in the room with their

(15:02):
husband or dad or whatever, and they fake a phone
call and it's basically like, oh yeah, oh really, your
caterer backed out. Oh oh I love those videos. Oh well, mama,
Mama will do it for you. And then Mama's sitting
there going, wait, what did you just sign me up for?
And it's like you need oh you need meals for
fifty people for you? Oh yeah, mama, mam will do
that for you. You know, bring the platters over right now.

(15:25):
And MAM's sitting there going I will not do that,
like who is that? You know? Or they'll do it
to their husband. It'll be like a Saturday morning and
it will be like, oh you need you need someone
with a ladder? Oh yeah, Tim will do that, and
Tim's looking at her like no, I won't. You know.
It's like can people getting signed up for stuff they
don't want to do.

Speaker 4 (15:40):
I love those videos. I actually wanted to do that
to you. I hate that you saw them.

Speaker 1 (15:45):
What were you gonna make me do?

Speaker 4 (15:46):
I don't know, just say like, yeah, friend will come,
he'll come with me, Yeah, yeah, we'll be there, mm
hmm yeah, yeah that's going on. You know what, Nobody
would believe you. Nobody everyone know you won't you.

Speaker 1 (15:56):
But you would have been like, oh my god, I'm
not going, and then I would have disappeared into the
witness protection programs. You would never have found me. This
is this is the thing on Reddit. It was on
the front page this morning. All the other crap that's
going on today. This is what I saw and it
jumped out of me and I'm appalled. Did people memorize
numbers before mobile phones. So you've got people that are

(16:19):
alive now that are asking the question, what did you
do before you had a mobile phone that had phone
numbers in it? Of course you memorize numbers, yes, And
I feel ancient for saying that. But you know, all
of us in this room lived in a time where
you had to memorize numbers. I had to know my
obviously my home phone number. I had to know all
my parents' numbers, like their office or whatever mobile phone

(16:41):
if they had one. And I guess you could save numbers,
but it wasn't like it is now. You probably knew
all your best friend's numbers, right, yeah, but this is
what I want to know. And every now and again
we do this and I'm amazed. But what comes to mind?
Eight five, five, five, nine, one one oh three five,
you can call it text the same number. But kids
of the two thousands, like that were born in the
two thousands, they'll never understand a lot of things, like

(17:05):
they'll never truly appreciate, Like yesterday, I was wearing my
Blockbuster shirt that you guys got me, and I was
in the elevator of the building and a man I'd
never seen before, said my ex wife worked at Blockbuster,
but I had to divorce her when she lost her
job because she wasn't contributing to the family. I don't
think he was serious, but I guess, I guess. I

(17:26):
guess his ex wife did work at Blockbuster at one point,
but no one but but maybe I thought it was
a random story that was very random, because he told me.
He told me he was in Crystal Lake. I'm assuming
it was when she was a child. But my point is, you,
no one will appreciate, no one will understand the joy
that is. You know, Friday afternoon, Friday night, your parents

(17:46):
drive you a Blockbuster video and for those who don't
even know what dad is, you pull up in front.
You know, you go in there. It's just a it's
a magical, bright, beaming box. And you walk in there
and and the world is your oyster. You can have anything.
Thing was possible, right, Maybe it would be a funny movie,
maybe it would be a serious movie. Maybe it was
a new movie. If I was able to get there

(18:07):
fast enough. Maybe, you know, because it could have been
sold out. And if it was gone, then it was free.
Remember it was like in stock or it's free. Wow?
Oh yeah, why do I know that because I worked there.
You get a video game, I mean it was a
big deal. Can you remember the joy that was pulling
up in front of Blockbuster? Now you'll never the kids
these days will never know that because now it's on Netflix.
And even last night, I'm going through the thing going,

(18:29):
I don't know, there's nothing to watch. I got six
streaming services, Like there's five million things that I could
be watching, and I'm like no, But you'll never understand
the joy of pulling up in front of Blockbuster. I
mean what comes to mind though when you think the
kids these days will never really be able to appreciate
or understand.

Speaker 4 (18:45):
They can't play Ding Dong Ditch and they never used
a payphone.

Speaker 1 (18:50):
Yeah, the ring camera screwed everything up. Yeah, you can't
ding Dong Ditch. You can't like tpe somebody's house anymore.
You can't pass gas on your way into somebody's house,
you know, like if you got on and you're like,
I don't know, you can't be talking smack on your
way in either, Like if you're you know, I don't
know your your your spouse brings you to you know,
the coworker Molly's house on Friday and you get the
bottle of wine, You're like, I don't want to be

(19:11):
here like in just an hour. Okay, you can't do
that anymore because now the ring cameras capturing all of this.

Speaker 3 (19:17):
Yeah, I know you're coming before you're even there, just
because of my phone, Like it'll ding ding when someone's
like literally approaching the door, so you can't ding down
ditch me.

Speaker 1 (19:25):
But what about you guys though, Like like if you
had a kid today, they'd never understand appointment television.

Speaker 3 (19:31):
I used to get so excited for like Disney Channel
Friday Night, New Original movie whatever. Yeah, Like, no, Gig's
got it right now on her Netflix click Aprutment's right there,
and they're.

Speaker 13 (19:40):
Running during the commercials, like you had to get your snacks,
you had a pee, you had to do it all
before the commercial was over.

Speaker 1 (19:46):
You can't pause it. She'll never know that, And I'm
sad for her, I really am. Or I'll take it
way back when you wanted to know what time your
show was going to be on and you had to
go to the TV Guide channel and watch yes right
with that music. Now, that's really old timing. I have
to that. I was really young for that. But let
me see here I'm going through. There's a list of
these things CDs, Hey, Sydney, Hi, Sydney, Hey, how are

(20:11):
you fred?

Speaker 8 (20:11):
Hey?

Speaker 1 (20:11):
Good morning. Kids these days they're never gonna understand it.

Speaker 10 (20:14):
But kids these days do not understand the chaos of
Black Fridays.

Speaker 1 (20:20):
So I've honestly never done on Black Friday. Like I've
really never done the thing where I wait outside of
a target for a flet screen TV, you know, with
a tent or something like, I've never done that before.
I guess I'm privileged. I don't know, or I'm willing
to pay an extra fifty bucks and not get tackled
for a flet screen TV. Are they less crazy than
they used to be?

Speaker 5 (20:39):
Yeah?

Speaker 10 (20:39):
Well, I mean like now the stores don't even open,
you know, until like they're regular hours. They don't even
do like the midnight release, the one am release, the
two am release online, so like yeah, or it's all
online right like Amazon, Cyber Monday everything. That's all you
know that kids really know these days, they don't know
the chaos of these releases is happening, not these like

(21:02):
crazy deals that you can only get on Black Friday,
and their parents going out to get their Christmas presents.

Speaker 14 (21:07):
On Black Friday or you know whatever it is.

Speaker 15 (21:10):
It's just so different now.

Speaker 1 (21:12):
I feel like Target Legal had to say no more
of this midnight stuff because people are getting aimed for
a blender right yes, so now we can't do this anymore.
You gotta go to the website. Thank you, Sydney. Have
a great day. Yeah, as you called, Hey Mike, good morning, Mike,

You don't have to be that old to appreciate the

(21:33):
kids these days will not to be able to what.

Speaker 5 (21:36):
So only being thirty six. I remember going to the
movie theaters as a kid, and when your parents needed
to pick you up, you'd call them on the payphone,
and for those two seconds where it'd say the collect call,
what's your name, you would say, I'm a booth theaters,
come pick me up, and then hang up.

Speaker 1 (21:51):
Oh see, I've bet there people who don't even want
to collect. Callis there was a way. There were a
couple different ways you'd call the operator, or you could
call like one one hundred. Collect was big when we
were young, and then you would then say I want
to call somebody, they'd call them for you, and the
person who picked up the phone could agree to accept
the charges if you didn't have like a quarter. But yeah,
you could use that little time where you're supposed to
say your name to be like come pick me up,

(22:13):
you know, and then yeah, because you didn't have any money, Yeah,
I see, it'll never happen. Find a payphone, nope.

Speaker 5 (22:20):
Or when the pagers came out, you got to bring
your parents' pagers with you.

Speaker 1 (22:24):
Oh yeah, pell pagers. Yeah, if you had a pager
when I was going up to you, you were a
com big deal. Yeah it was you have the clear
one though, you had to have the clear one. You
had to have the clear one. Yeah, yeah, thank you, Mike.
Have a good day, all right, thank you? You know,
because yeah, if you had a page, because this is
before cell phones like we readily available, if you had
a pager, like what's up?

You know?

Speaker 1 (22:46):
Yeah? Right, hey zen, hey zen, See this this is
another one. Kids, he says, will never understand.

Speaker 10 (22:53):
Having to get off the internet so that your mom
or your dad or someone can make a call.

Speaker 11 (22:59):
Ye, that ruined my childhood.

Speaker 12 (23:01):
I was talking to my cross on aim and had
to get.

Speaker 1 (23:04):
Off the worst. Yeah, because people don't realize. And by
the way, I think we did the story. A few
months ago, AOL just dropped that service, so there were
people out there still using but you could steal up
until a couple of months ago dial up to AOL.
But yeah, you had to use the phone to get
on the internet. And if you only had one line
then and whatever on the phone, nobody could call anybody.

Speaker 13 (23:25):
I miss am like you can be down to chat,
like you can say, okay, I'm ready to talk to
my friends, or I'm having a way message.

Everybody has like a ring ring, doorbells, there's cameras everywhere.

Speaker 14 (24:53):
It's like I remember back in my day, we used
to go a day time.

Speaker 1 (24:57):
Yes ma'am, right, well you get the family was a
family three sixty life. These apps where you know, it's
like where are you? What are you doing? Find my friends?

Look at you, thank you, ROBERTA. I have a good day. Yeah,
I mean it's it's much harder to lie now, it's
very hard, much harder to lie. Hey, Jazz, oh my god,
I forgot about this, Chazz.

Speaker 10 (25:33):
Hi.

Speaker 1 (25:34):
Yi, guys, dcs will never understand on calling movie phone.

Speaker 2 (25:39):
And trying to get the time from when the movie starts.

Speaker 1 (25:43):
We're having to call the movie theater itself. You know.
It's like I want to go see you know, Batman
or whatever. It's like, okay, what time is it? I
don't know. If you get a call and it's like
there's like an answering machine or one a hundred movie
phone that guy. Yeah, yeah, then.

Speaker 10 (25:57):
When you actually missed the you know, your movie, we
have to wait until the entire thing goes all over again.

Speaker 5 (26:03):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (26:03):
That was like that was like the TV guide thing.
It was like, no, I just wanted to see what
time TRL was, you know, or or the grind was on.
I just wanted to see. Thank you, Jaz, have a
good day. New Year's Eve. It's the French show the
Latest Dating trend. You guys ready, I'm going to start
your week with the latest dating trend. And we talked
about this flocking. We talked about flocking. I guess so
many things on my list. I don't even I can't

(26:23):
remember what we did and didn't do. I can't remember
we were on the air, off the air, I can't
remember if I was talking to myself or not. Flocking
is a gen Z dating term. Instead of using dating apps,
people are traveling to meet potential partners in real life.
They'll book a trip to a fun place like a
beach town or a city with lots of bars to
increase their chances to finding romance the old fashioned way

(26:46):
by actually talking to people face to face. So there
are travel sites like Priceline that are even offering special
deals to support the trend. So you ditch the app.
You would spend money, You would buy a flight I
guess by yourself, and then fly somewhere and then just
post up somewhere else and hope that somebody would talk
to you, because I guess people will talk where you're from.

(27:08):
I mean, I don't know. I just seems a little
flawed to me, like in a lot of ways, like okay,
so you I get it, Like maybe you want a
different pool of people, Okay, fine, but then then you okay,
let's say you go to wherever and you meet someone
then they live there and you live somewhere else. So
now we're all automatically up against that challenge.

Speaker 7 (27:25):
A whole new set of problem you're unlocking. I think
it's just flawed flocking.

Speaker 1 (27:32):
Can we go back to you? Can I go back to?

Speaker 15 (27:33):
Uh?

Speaker 1 (27:33):
What is that word? Like a playoff of am? I
like slow? Like flocking, like you fly, you're flying somewhere,
you fly like a bird flocking like oh yeah, I
am slow? Okay, I got it? Yeah?

Speaker 10 (27:48):
What is.

Speaker 1 (27:51):
What is the.

Speaker 3 (27:53):
I thought you'd be into this because it's travel related,
and I thought, like, you know, you meet, but I don't.

Speaker 1 (27:58):
I don't. I do love to, but I don't. I
don't like get on the plane and fly to you know,
Cleveland or whatever, and then go post up at a
random neighborhood. Hopefully someone will talk to me like what
I mean, Well, I flew to Cleveland and I posted
up at the neighborhood, borrowing, peop would talk to me.
I read this on Friday. It was flocking. I need
to do it. I need to adopt this trend.

Speaker 10 (28:20):
No.

Speaker 1 (28:20):
I mean it's one thing if I think if you're
traveling and then you get on the dating apps, or
you or you're like more likely to maybe be out socializing,
doing fun things that you may not do on an
average weekend when you're at home, and then you meet
someone that's different. But I'm not going to travel with
the intention of hopefully speaking to a human who wants
to date me.

Speaker 13 (28:39):
I would if I was single and wanted to live elsewhere,
I would set my location to that place and see
what kind of pool they got.

Speaker 1 (28:46):
But this is start something there. This is no dating apps.
This trend is no dating apps. So like this this
trend would that wouldn't supply. Yeah, I'm just saying that's
what I would do.

Speaker 2 (28:54):
If I wanted to move to Miami, I would send
it in Miami.

Speaker 3 (28:57):
Because I always pictured you being with somebody who, like
you just meet via airport or like, I don't know,
somewhere like on a trip, like I really do picture you.

Speaker 1 (29:04):
No, I agree with you. I think that could totally
have it has happened before. Yeah, but what I'm I'm
not the purpose of this would be to take the
trip to do that. And well the other thing is like, okay,
so a beach town, like I don't know, I go
to Pensacola, you know, I fly to that's well, I
think it NA is a beach at Pensacola.

Speaker 9 (29:21):
Yeah, I fly at.

Speaker 1 (29:22):
Pensacola, right, and I'm like, here, I'm in Pensacola. Now
I'm in a beach town. Well, everyone else is there
on vacation too, So then I don't even know where
the hell you live, Like, I don't you know? And
then is it giving long term or is it giving
kind of one off like a question like we're having
fun now and then I have to go back to
my husband or wife, you know kind of thing, like
I don't know. It seems flawed in many many ways. Well,

(29:43):
I don't know. If I'm you meet Brandon people on
vacation and they're in vacation mode and they're like, what
are do vacation things? So I'm not sure that I'm
not sure about this one. The other thing I've noticed
is that if if as it as a man, if
I do travel and I set my apps somewhere else
and I match with people, and then I get home,
I either get quickly unmatched or like kind of told off,

(30:06):
like oh so you don't even live here? Oh see?

Speaker 10 (30:08):
Oh.

Speaker 1 (30:09):
I Like it's like, as a guy, if if I
go to New York City or New York, New York City,
New York City. If I go to New York and
if I if I go to Dallas and I changed
my stuff to Dallas and then I come back, it
couldn't be that I wanted to see who was out
there in Dallas. It was Oh, it implies that I
just wanted to get some, like for the weekend. However,

(30:31):
living in a big city like we do, that happens
all the time, like this weekend. I guarantee if I
were on the dating apps that I would have matched
with several people who don't live here, who are in
town for a lot of Pelluca doing the same thing.
But as a but but I guess women, I wouldn't
say that to a woman. I wouldn't be like, oh,
you were obviously trying to get some maybe you were
so what true? But people I've gotten told off before, like, oh,

(30:54):
you know, that's not really cool. You know, like, you
don't even live here, you know, and you're matching with people.
What do you mean? Women do it? And by the way,
when did it become so criminal to go on a
dating app and be very transparent about the fact that
you were just looking to meet someone and see what happens.
Wait over the course of the time that you're there.
I mean, if that's not for you, then then you

(31:15):
once you discover that, then you can unmatch them and
move on. I think the problem would be if you
were married, or if you were a scammer, or if
you were not transparent about the fact that all you
were trying to do is stick and move, you know
what I mean. Yes, I don't know when this became
so criminal. We're having this conversation last week off the year.
But when did it become so bad to just be

(31:37):
transparent about the fact that you want something casual. If
you don't want something casual, then then just unmatch a
person or just don't talk to them, right.

Speaker 4 (31:44):
I think it's a great thing to be, you know, transparent.
Don't waste my time.

Speaker 11 (31:49):
Now that i'm.

Speaker 1 (31:52):
Since when did you become the expert on this topic,
I don't waste anybody's start, be honest. Well, I mean
I'm not saying that you just lead and come right
out and say that's what I want. But I mean
I I don't. I guess even if you did, you
should people are like, oh, that's that's how you wind
up on those websites apparently websites or that's how you
wind up on there, but then people like dog you.

(32:14):
But it's what I don't. I guess I don't know
why that like people can't just ask for what they
in a in a not disgusting way.

Speaker 4 (32:21):
Right, But you shouldn't be on like married. You know,
I want to be married dot com and you know.

Speaker 1 (32:26):
You just love that site.

Speaker 2 (32:30):
It right now?

Speaker 1 (32:32):
Mean't want to be married? You say, you say I
shouldn't be on it. No, you should not, and you
just want to stick and move, you know, But I
want to stick in move dot com too. What if
I'm on both? I've seen a lot of people on
both stick and move and I want to be married.
They can't decide. I guess more press show next well
in the city, and I've seen hr videos about this. Okay,

(32:55):
Jason wrong, he would be offered up his body as
an experiment for his straight colleague. Red show is watching
a friend show constitution again? Because sometimes we have to
make amendments our scribe.

Speaker 2 (33:11):
I'd love to tell you always cheat responsibly.

Speaker 1 (33:13):
Yeah, cheat responsibly and that stays. Oh this one must stay.
Don't be ashamed of your butthole. That's for you.

Speaker 3 (33:19):
I am but okay, okay, all right, yes, always give
it up to members the military, first responders, hold on,
and real life astronauts. Only if you've actually entered space. Yeah,
that's true. That just sort of just a tip space.

Speaker 10 (33:30):
Not that.

Speaker 3 (33:31):
No, you're right. Never trust a fart. Oh, stop wanting
to be mad. Tell myself that one. If it ain't bowing,
I am going okay.

Speaker 1 (33:39):
Yes, glad, Yes, you're for now.

Speaker 3 (33:41):
Okay, okay, don't missle wild animals. If it ain't weed,
it's crack messing with Apple chargers.

Speaker 1 (33:48):
Yes, that's all right, because it's like every time I like,
get every charger in every room. Ye, and I'm you know,
I'm ready to I got a travel charger, I got
one in my bedroom, I got one in my little
office room. I'm ready to go. And then they switched
the phone. They make the phone not that much better,
but they changed the little thing and now they don't
even give you. They don't even give you the plug anymore.

(34:10):
It's just a gigantic Yeah, ridicularly sick.

Speaker 3 (34:13):
Yeah okay, yeah, last one, no surprise FaceTime calls.

Speaker 1 (34:17):
Yes, boy, I forgot about some of the brilliants. That's
in there. We're brilliant. Ever been lots of waiting by
the phone. It's the Fred Show. Hey, Corey, good morning,
welcome to the show. How are you. I'm doing pretty good.

Speaker 12 (34:30):
How are you?

Speaker 1 (34:30):
Hey, We're okay? Here we are well, we're great. I'm
just gonna say it, We're great. I don't know if
that's true, but here we are. Waiting by the phone
is what this is called. So you met a woman
named Hope on a hinge and you liked her.

Speaker 16 (34:42):
What happened next, Well, we went on a data and
we had a really great time. We had fun, and
we actually even after our data and I'm going back
to my place for a little bit.

Speaker 9 (34:50):
So it's all.

Speaker 16 (34:51):
Things were going really well. And then yeah, I've just
pretty much been straight up ghosted since then.

Speaker 1 (34:56):
Wow. Wow. Yeah, I mean, you know, take those well
enough that you move on to a second venue, especially
if that venue is your house. That's usually a good sign. However,
we've heard over the years many ways that it is not.
So you've reached out to her, I suppose since the date,
and she's not responding to you at all, not at all. Huh. Okay, well,
let's call this woman, Hope. We'll see if we can

(35:17):
get her on the phone. You'll be on the phone
as well. I don't want you to jump in at first,
but you know, hopefully this is something we can straighten
out and get you guys set up on another date
that we pay for.

Speaker 9 (35:24):
All right, all right, appreciate it.

Speaker 1 (35:27):
You got. I'm gonna play one song. We'll be back
in two minutes and we'll figure this out. Hang on, hey, Corey, Yeah, Cory,
Oh there you are, Corey there? All right, perfect Corey,
let's call Hope. You guys met on Hinge, went out
to dinner, had a good time, back to your place afterwards.
You thought all that was great too, except now you've

(35:48):
reached out, you've texted, you've called since the date, she's
not responding, and you want to.

Speaker 9 (35:52):
Know why exactly.

Speaker 1 (35:54):
All right, we'll call her now. Good luck, Thank you?

Speaker 9 (36:08):
Hello?

Speaker 1 (36:09):
How is his Hope? Hey, Hope? Good morning. My name
is Fred. I'm calling from the Friend Show. The whole
cur is here. I'm sorry to bother, but I do
have to tell you that we are on the radio
right now, and I would need your consent to continue
with the calls. I don'tkay if we chat for a second.
I guess, thank you very much. We appreciate that we
won't take up too much of your time. But we're
calling on behalf of a guy named Corey who says

(36:31):
he met you on Hymns and you guys went out
on a date recently. All right, we've heard that kind
of response before, So why ye are you yeah and
not not responding to him at all?

Speaker 15 (36:45):
Well, I mean, it was nice. Then he invited me
back to his place for a drink, and I we
didn't know he had a roommate, But that's not really
the issue. I mean, that's fine, but their bedrooms were

(37:06):
just beds on the floor, separated by a sheet.

Speaker 1 (37:10):
Oh no, so okay, all right, hold on, So Corey
invites you back to his house. He doesn't indicate to
you that he has a roommate, which, okay, all right,
you know that's a little weird. You walk in, was
the roommate there by the way, No, thank god, that
would have been weird. Okay, But nonetheless, you walk in
and you realize that he lives in the same room

(37:33):
with another guy in no privacy or girl or whomever.
Ray ray huh, Yeah, that is a little weird. Let
me bring Corey and I forgot to mention that Corey
is here. Corey, what's the deal? I don't get it.

Speaker 9 (37:46):
Yeah, you know, it's just kind of that's the arrangement
we have. You know, I have a roommate and we
live in a one bedroom apartment and.

Speaker 17 (37:53):
Where you know, it's not you know, I could afford
to live on my own if.

Speaker 9 (37:56):
I wanted to, I guess, but you know, basically, I'm
just trying to save money.

Speaker 1 (37:59):
So yeah, uh, me and a friend of mine.

Speaker 9 (38:01):
Yeah, we got a place and we share a bedroom together.

Speaker 2 (38:04):
Can you afford to get your beat off the floor?

Speaker 4 (38:06):
Yeah, that would be a good stars given s trap house.

Speaker 1 (38:13):
It's not like a lot spring.

Speaker 9 (38:14):
It's not on the floor, it's not a box spring.
I just don't have a frame for it.

Speaker 1 (38:18):
But yeah, in that case, well what happened if you
brought the lady home and and your roommate was there.

Speaker 9 (38:24):
Yeah, well that's what the shoots for.

Speaker 2 (38:27):
You'll be doing it at the same time.

Speaker 1 (38:32):
Or what's he doing while you're doing it? Vice versas.
This is not college, dude, and even if it were,
I don't think anyone would get I don't think many
people will get away with that.

Speaker 17 (38:40):
Well, yeah, it's not like that's the only room in
the house though, Like we have a living room and
like other spaces and you know, he's not always there,
and you know, and like I said, right now, I'm
a single dude, So it's not like I'm in a
relationship where.

Speaker 9 (38:53):
I need the more privacy. If I was in a
relationship that moved further than yeah, maybe I get my
own place. Don't see the big deal.

Speaker 1 (39:01):
But in the meantime, you and Hope, we're going to
have an audience. I'm sorry, you're right those seat is
there though, so I.

Speaker 15 (39:06):
Felt like I was at like a third world brothel.

Speaker 1 (39:11):
Wasn't very round a dude, I don't know. Man, does
this this ever caused a problem for you before, Corey
or No?

Speaker 9 (39:19):
No, my roommate's actually a pretty deep sleeper.

Speaker 1 (39:21):
So all right, so Hope, I'm just gonna ask. It's
it's rhetorical, I know the answer. But would you would
you consider another date with old boy?

Speaker 10 (39:32):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (39:32):
No, absolutely, Okay, I might invest in, like, uh, can't
you go to like pier one and get one of
those like you know, can you go to like Target?
Because you know what I'm thinking of it's like one
of those like uh those dividers that like folds, you know,
like a like a cubicle. I mean, just go to
Pier one. I don't know if you can go to
peer one anymore, go to on wayfair dot com. So none.

(39:57):
I have a better idea. How about since we're grown ups,
we just get two rooms right place, at least some bits. Anyway,
it's not gonna work out, Corey. Thank you for your time, Hope.
I wish you the best of luck as well.

Speaker 15 (40:09):
Thanks, I need it.

Speaker 1 (40:10):
Happy New Year's seat. It's the French show if you
were ever a single person, or if you are a
single person and you went to a wedding and you
were and there was an attempt at a set up,
because I feel like what happens is a single person
goes to wedding and it's been a while, I guess
since I mean usually it's this is way more common
I think in people's twenties or whatever. But like you
go to a wedding and in your single and there's

(40:33):
usually other single people there, and so like the groom
or the bride is like, well, at our wedding, you
need to meet Sally because Sally's single, and I think
you guys would like each other because apparently if you're
at a wedding and you're not, you're by yourself, or
if you're single, then it's imperative that you are not
because it's so romantic. You know, you have to have
love too, because I feel like I'm always the single

(40:54):
guy at the wedding, and it's not so much anymore
because well, first of all, I don't go to that
many weddings anymore, to second weddings, I guess, but they're
usually much smaller. I've actually, I've actually stood in a
wedding for the same guy twice already in my life,
and I'm not that old. But in my twenties, I
feel like it's a lot of a lot of single people.
And so every time I go to a wedding, oh
you got to meet so and so and oh you

(41:15):
and then and then they tell that person. But what
I what I found is it almost never works, like
has it ever worked for you? Because you know, sometimes
like I can't remember, I went to one wedding and
the bride's grooms one of the groom's best men men,
I guess, was a former Navy seal, very good looking

(41:37):
navy guy and like good looking dude, like legit, whatever, whatever,
And for weeks in advance, it was that this coworker
was going to meet this guy and they were gonna
hit it off and it was gonna be great. So
she got her hopes up and whatever, we go to
the wedding. Turns out he winds up liking another one
of our coworkers more, and they're the ones who wind
up in the parking lot of the wedding venue hooking up.

(41:58):
And so then homegirl first mad, but she really has
no reason to be mad because it's like, well, he
picked somebody else. But I mean, she had her hopes up,
seen pictures of the guy. You know, he'd been talked up,
the whole thing. But I think it's all just kind
of a it's a wild game, you know, and when
drinks are involved and people are going to these weddings,
and it's like, I don't know, but has this ever worked?

(42:18):
And I bring this up because a woman has gone
viral on TikTok because ahead of her friend's wedding, a
TikTok user named Mac asked the bride about any possibility
that single men would be attending, and the bride responded, yes,
my fiance is compiling a list, and a day later
Mack received a full blown power point of all the
single men oh good a DIF friend who are attending

(42:40):
the wedding, not just their names, though this presentation included photos, profession,
current location, where they grew up, what sport they played
in high school. She may not have needed all of this,
but she's based in New York, and I guess instead
of chatting up a guy who lived in Chicago, for example,
she was able to fast track the process go for
another New Yorker. Did it turn out well, No, it

(43:01):
was a bust, she says, but she appreciated the information
and having that beforehand. That's nice. I feel like people
should do that for their friends. That is nice. But
has the wedding arrangement ever worked? I wonder like if
anyone ever left a wedding and been like, that's the
I found the one at your wedding.

Speaker 4 (43:19):
I don't have any friends that that has happened to,
but I know that weddings are a romantic place. Like
I feel like every single person that goes to the
wedding is I in the bridesmaids. As they walk down
the little carpet or whatever, they're all like being sized
up by the single men. And then when they do
the little bouquet toss, I feel like that's the opportunity
for the single man to kind of pick out the
single girls.

Speaker 1 (43:40):
A lot of people, I feel like hook up at
other people's weddings. Yeah, well, I don't know if I'm
If they do that thing and I'm watching, I stay
away from the one who's the most aggressive, the one
who's the most raptus, Like, yeah, the one who just
like ran across the room and jumped and wind up
I'm sports Center for grabbing them. Okay, that's the one
who I thinks a little bit too excited about it,
and I need and sort of take a step back

(44:01):
from that one. That's me. They're on al bows trying
to get a boquet, and all the guys are watching,
going which one of like all the guys, especially the
guys who are in relationships with these women, because it's like,
oh yeah, the one who's like snatching it from the
other one, it's like, oh god, yeah, she's with me.
I got to deal with her. Yeah, Well, I just
wonder if it's ever worked, because I mean I definitely

(44:21):
have met people at weddings and things have happened that
lasted the length of the wedding weekend. And I also
been told so and so is so excited to meet
you were setting you up with so and so. This
is going to be great, only for so and so
not to be that excited about it, or for me
not to be that excited about so and so in
real life. But then it's awkward because there's been so much,
you know, build up for weeks and weeks leading up

(44:43):
to this. Yeah, it's the build up for me.

Speaker 7 (44:45):
I think there's so many things that have to fall
into place perfectly for it to work that it's like
the percentage has to be low. Yeah, that it's a
lasting thing, like maybe for that night because everyone's joking,
looks hot and whatever, but like there's.

Speaker 1 (44:57):
Something that's lasting. I don't love. It's a very nice
thing to do, though. This is a very nice thing
to do to make a presentation. Oh yeah, but I
will say that the story I was telling you about
the navy seal and the woman who wound up not
being heard wound up being someone else. It was a
destination wedding. This is a crazy story. They hooked up

(45:17):
that night, right, and then the other girls passed, But
the other two traveled together like they traveled because we
all lived at the same place at the time when
we were going away to this other person's hometown the
bride's hometown for the wedding. So it's already awkward as
the two go back to the airport to get on
the same flight. The two girls, the one who hooked
up and the one who didn't get to hook up.

(45:38):
And then this is real. The flight gets delayed, right,
the flight gets delayed five hours, so I guess she's
texted dude from the night before. Dude drives to the airport,
gets a parking spot in the parking garage, still the same.
The other one is mad, but the one who hooked
up leaves security, goes back through a security out to

(45:58):
the parking ruage. They do it again in the parking zing.
I'm like what, And then the other one's just sitting there,
So she's already pissed, and now her friend's not going
to hang out with her for the five hours for
the delay because you're down the parking lot getting with
the same guy. But then she was supposed to go Yeah,
I just wanted to go home. I know that girl
just wanted to go home. Oh yeah, I don't know.
My story made sensor if you need a diagram. But

(46:18):
all I'm saying is this girl's like, not only did
I not was he not into me last night? He's
not into me now? And I got to sit next
to this girl who just hooked up with him again
in the in the parking garage, you know, section.

Speaker 7 (46:29):
C A, the airport, fresh out the back seat, next
to Day on the plane, right exactly.

Speaker 1 (46:36):
Hey Renee, good morning, Hey, good morning, Hi Renee. So
you have one of these sort of wedding hookup scenarios,
but it worked out for you, well.

Speaker 2 (46:46):
Not really in the end.

Speaker 8 (46:47):
But so it was about probably like ten to fifteen
years ago, my cousin got married and I was a
bridesmaid in the wedding and I ended up hooking up
with the best man who was you know, the group
whom's brother. So then actually they ended up getting divorced
and recently she ended up getting remarried. But if you

(47:07):
can guess, I did not get an invitation to that
second wedding.

Speaker 1 (47:11):
Now you know it would have been wild. If she
married the brother, that would.

Speaker 8 (47:14):
Have been No, he got married a short while after
the wedding, so that might have been a little questionable.

Speaker 1 (47:21):
Wait a minute, So there was a bit of an
overlap with Renee the and the future wife.

Speaker 8 (47:27):
I unbeknownst to me, unbeknownst.

Speaker 1 (47:29):
To me, why wasn't the future wife at the wedding?
How is this even at permitted to occur?

Speaker 2 (47:34):
Exactly? I have no idea.

Speaker 9 (47:36):
I didn't ask questions.

Speaker 2 (47:37):
Sometimes ignorance is boss.

Speaker 6 (47:39):
I agree.

Speaker 1 (47:39):
I agree with that. Thank you for that power point.
Would have been nice, you know, with all this kind
of information. You know, have a good day for you too.
Thank you for calling known wedding shenanigans for you. No,
I've never really hot take care. I've never really been
to a wedding as an adult. Yeah, my friends, I'll
be having wed. Well.

Speaker 7 (47:57):
Anything that happened that with scandalous is after one wedding,
Paulina and I ended up in the same thid that
she hadn't.

Speaker 1 (48:04):
Realize that true. Yeah, Jason ended up in bed with
a woman. I am the woman I'm hearing tell the story. Yeah,
well that was what I think. That was the weekend
where I learned that you if you're not in the
view of others, you don't wear pants. That is true.

Speaker 3 (48:18):
Jason Brown yells at me, and now he says, I've
never met someone takes off their pants so much. But
I hate when can's especial to bed. I want to
wear pants to bed. But I asked him I can
sleep over, because he was staying at the hotel, and
I thought this whole time, I'm like, oh, I'm going home,
not staying at this place. Oh no, I had a
great time. I was just I don't want to party.
So I asked him, can I can I stay with you?
Can I sleep over? He's like, yes, but I'm building

(48:38):
a wall. He built a wall of pillows because.

Speaker 18 (48:41):
He didn't want to be by a woman. And then
he woke up at four am. And I'm not even
being funny. He screamed dad and shot up from like
the bed like he just got up. And that scares
me to this day. That was a very interesting night.

Speaker 1 (48:55):
Wow, this all happened because you wouldn't put your pants on.
I am unbelievable. Amanda, Hi, good.

Speaker 2 (49:02):
Morning, Hi, good morning.

Speaker 1 (49:05):
How are you guys?

Speaker 10 (49:05):
Hey?

Speaker 1 (49:06):
So you great? Thanks for calling for listening. So you
actually have a love connection from a wedding it worked.

Speaker 10 (49:10):
Yeah.

Speaker 14 (49:11):
So the wedding was in Cabo. It was my best
friend getting married and the groom's best friend. They like
set us off to walk down the aisle together totally.
We're trying, like the whole weekend to get us together,
and at the end of the minute, actually worked out.
And we've been together for two years and living together
and it they like totally set us up and it works.

Speaker 1 (49:32):
Wow, And so they'll be coming to your wedding.

Speaker 10 (49:36):
Yeah.

Speaker 14 (49:36):
And now it's fun because you know, like double dates
is fun because they're best friends and we're best friends
and it somehow worked out for us.

Speaker 1 (49:43):
But have you considered I'm not putting this on you,
but have you considered that like if one, if somebody
breaks up, then the equilibrium is thrown off. Yeah, we
have real problems. We talk about that.

Speaker 14 (49:54):
We're like, yeah, me and my girlfriend are like, okay, wait,
so if this doesn't work out, how are we gonna
you know, get together from here on out? But no,
it's been fine and it's been really fun.

Speaker 1 (50:05):
There you go, Amanda, thank you.

Speaker 15 (50:08):
I have a good day.

Speaker 1 (50:09):
Why it worked for you? Right? I mean, yeah, people,
I just think we were in a certain kind of
mood at a wedding, especially I think, and I don't
mean to make this, you know, a male female thing,
but I think single women start to feel a certain
kind of way of weddings if they want to be married,
because it's like they're watching it happen for someone else,
but then it's not happening for them. I guess, I guess,

(50:31):
I just I as a man, I'm not familiar with
a guy who's been to a wedding and sat there
and was like, man, I wish it were me.

Speaker 4 (50:37):
You don't ever feel that, no, no, no.

Speaker 1 (50:40):
No, because it's short of meeting the person who I've
and and this is nothing against anyone I've dated, but like,
I don't know that I want to be married. I
don't know that I'm ever going to get married, and
I don't think I've met anyone I should be married to.
So I don't sit at a wedding and go I
wish it were me because I don't know the person
that I should be doing it with. I don't think
a lot of guys are as into weddings as women are,

(51:04):
So I don't know. I mean I've sat at weddings
before with single guys, so they're not they're not leaning
over to me, going this is so beautiful. I wish
I were standing there. No one, no, no man has
ever said that to me. Oh, but I think it's kind.

Speaker 10 (51:15):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (51:15):
Our weddings kind of typically more of a female thing.
I would say, so, I think I think so, so
then I don't. Yeah so then, but haven't you had
friends at weddings being like, oh, someday, I hope it's me,
or I hope I have the wedding like this or
something like that. You guys don't say that to each other.

Speaker 16 (51:31):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (51:31):
I go every wed and I go to I'm like, okay, yeah,
I like how they did that.

Speaker 1 (51:34):
I'm want to do that my wedding one day. I
like how they did that. I'm not doing my wedding
one day.

Speaker 5 (51:38):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (51:38):
And then you scan the room for the single man
after a couple of cocktails and you're like, potential grooms
in here.

Speaker 1 (51:44):
So yeah, women think like that.

Speaker 4 (51:45):
I mean, from my perspective, that's how I've thought at weddings.

Speaker 1 (51:49):
But like, yeah, I don't know, I just want to
go home sometimes, That's what I mean. But I'm like,
I want to go home. What is the earliest possible
opportunity for an ex if it's not considered, bring out
the possible. That's where I'm mad. Oh yes, I'll get
on tender and find my own people in New Year's Eve.
It's the French show. As a parent, Paulina, you're having
to come up with creative ways you're lying to your child.

(52:11):
I'm alive, you're lying. You're lying, kid, sketch lies to
sketch it lies. This is how this is how these
the suits work around here with their skitch of lies.
And then and then you take the schitchu lizes home
and you expose your children to them. Look at the
effect it's having on everyone's life. But how are you
lying to your kid? And then I want to I
want to expound on this. You can call in text

(52:31):
eight five five five three five how do you have
to lie to your kid? And there's no judgment here
because I got to imagine that it's just easier sometimes
to lie to the kid than it is to try
and explain to them. You know why we can't do
the thing that we can do because maybe you're busy
doing other stuff. It's like I got to what's the lie?

Speaker 3 (52:48):
The one that I'm doing right now is she likes
to wake up and go to sleep wanting to go
outside first. So she wants to go outside, like I
guess she sees a dog go out right in the morning.
She feels that she will to go outside, and she'll.

Speaker 1 (53:00):
Point outside and I say.

Speaker 3 (53:04):
But outside's closed. She knows the closed side is closed.
I say, outside closed, Gigi, outside closed, like it's not
open yet.

Speaker 10 (53:12):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (53:12):
She doesn't understand time yet, so I can't really say, like, well,
like ten o'clock, it's open. But when I'm home on
the weekend Saturday morning, I don't want to go outside
at seven thirty.

Speaker 1 (53:20):
Like outside closed.

Speaker 3 (53:22):
It's closed, like like there's a close sign. So she
understands open clothes kind of. So I'm like closed and
she goes closed, Mommy closed.

Speaker 1 (53:29):
And I said, yes, mommy closed. Yeah yeah, So wait
does outside open? It opens after I.

Speaker 3 (53:35):
Have coffee, but opens yeah, after I do like my
morning stuff that I need to do, like you know,
use the bathroom stuff in peace, right y.

Speaker 5 (53:42):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (53:42):
Benzo goes out first. Though it's aldo for Benzo. Benzo
gets to go and test out the water.

Speaker 1 (53:47):
It's not outside for dog, it's not closed for dogs,
never closed never. Oh and our house never closed for Benzo. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (53:52):
Yeah, he's peed before on the floor and pooped. Yeah,
that's been great.

Speaker 1 (53:57):
He's a dog. Yeah, whatever is he telling your child?
I would like to know, because I'm sure it tasi
to parent that way.

Speaker 3 (54:03):
She has meltdowns when I let her FaceTime my mother
or her grandmother, so like, Bobcha is my mom, right,
and she's upsets like I think, like if she had
a pick, say one person, it's Bobcha forever, like who
cares about mom?

Speaker 1 (54:16):
But I love it.

Speaker 3 (54:17):
And when I let her face time, you know, we
got to hang up with the phone because that's what
we do. We have to bound the day.

Speaker 1 (54:22):
And you know, she m she freaks out, and I.

Speaker 3 (54:25):
Say, Bobcha's working, bob Jessic go to work because she
understands work, which is amazing.

Speaker 1 (54:29):
I love it.

Speaker 3 (54:30):
Daddy work that she associates that with daddy. So I say,
Bobcho work. I'm hoping she gets it, like Bobcha's got
things to do. Bocha's busy.

Speaker 1 (54:38):
She'll kind of calm down. She'll say, okay, Bocho work,
bob Cho work.

Speaker 3 (54:42):
So that's the only way that can get them off
the phone is that she thinks Grandma's going to work
even though it's like nine thirty at night.

Speaker 1 (54:47):
Bocha goes to work. Yeah, I know. My sister tells
the kids like that the toy store is closed.

Speaker 5 (54:53):
That's a good one.

Speaker 1 (54:53):
Yeah, you know, it'll drive by it and we'll go
in there. No, it's closing. I can't go in there.
It's closed. I think that's a pretty common one though,
is she's just not open. The thing that you don't
want to go to, you couldn't go to.

Speaker 3 (55:03):
Yeah, it's closed, it's canceled, doesn't exist. Yeah, we'll have
a lot of that.

Speaker 1 (55:07):
She's catching on the thing.

Speaker 3 (55:08):
So she's about eighteen months almost, so she she gets
a lie and I know lies and the skits are coming.

Speaker 1 (55:13):
I just gets a lot at home, so she'll get
a taste of that.

Speaker 2 (55:16):
Have you done a skit and a lie to other people?

Speaker 13 (55:18):
Like used her as an excuse because my mom would
always be like, oh, Kaelin doesn't feel while we have
to leave, and.

Speaker 1 (55:22):
I'd be like, no, I feel fine.

Speaker 3 (55:24):
Actually yeah, yeah, that one I've done that the one
that I've done in our own is I didn't.

Speaker 1 (55:30):
Have a sitter.

Speaker 3 (55:31):
Sorry, I couldn't go, Like you guys know, I'm outside
in twenty minutes, like I was an amazing village.

Speaker 1 (55:35):
God bless, I'm so grateful you've wheeled the child in here,
so like, yeah, oh yeah, you just right exactly. You
really wanted to go then and you couldn't. Gigi would
just come with you. She's always on my hip.

Speaker 3 (55:45):
If I don't have a sitter, like I have her
with me obviously if she can, you know, I can
bring a baby. But if I really don't have a sitter, like.

Speaker 1 (55:51):
You'll know, you'll know. And that happens once in a while.

Speaker 3 (55:53):
It has happened, like I couldn't go to the casino
one time, you know, because I didn't have a sitter
and she wasn't allowed.

Speaker 1 (55:58):
I called the casino said.

Speaker 3 (56:02):
I really wanted to go out your baby, but that's
the only skin and lie I'll do. Is like, oh,
I didn't have a sitter that night, Like, no, I
had a sitter.

Speaker 1 (56:10):
I just didn't want to go. Oh my god. Someone said,
I told my kid that you have to have a
membership to shop at Target, and only Grandma has one
that is really good that's a good one. That is phenomenal.
I really like that one. You need to use that, Yeah,
just pawn everything off on the grandparents. I think people
use that. People use the kid and the wife and

(56:31):
spouse and you know husband excuse all the time. Oh yeah.
So the problem with doing that is that here's the
target membership story. This is absolutely brilliant. Well but brilliant. Yes, yes, yes.

Speaker 19 (56:43):
We spent way too much money there when my son
was like three four years old, and so then I
told him that you have to have a target membership
and grandma has a target credit card and it works. Yeah,
I save a lot of money.

Speaker 1 (56:56):
Yeah, until you know your child becomes old enough to
realize is that that's a lie and their mom is
a liar.

Speaker 19 (57:02):
Well he's six and a half. So we're doing great
so far.

Speaker 1 (57:05):
Okay, that's how this is great. Managed to keep it going.
I like it. Thank you, el have a good day. Yeah. No,
it's like people use their spouse. Oh yeah, we can't
go tonight because so and so says we can't go.
And the problem with that is half the time I
find out that so and so didn't say that, and
then you start to sort of dislike so and so
because like, well, so and so never lets you do anything.

(57:26):
And then then you talk to so and so and
so and I never said that. I never said that.
And then I don't know who's who is telling this
kits in the lies? Are you lied? Did you? Are
you really that much of a tyrant? Or is this
person lying because they don't want to go? Hey, Angie,
yeh hi, how do you lie to your kid?

Speaker 16 (57:45):
So?

Speaker 12 (57:45):
When he's fourteen now, so he's he's way too smart.
But when he was little, whenever I was eating something
and I didn't want to share, I would tell him
it was spicy, and he would.

Speaker 1 (57:56):
Have like, yeah, that's pretty good, that is pretty good. Yeah,
it's just spicy for you. You don't want done?

Speaker 12 (58:05):
Yeah, if it was like like a like I made
myself buttered noodles, Mommy, can I have some? Oh no,
it's spicy.

Speaker 20 (58:11):
You won't like it.

Speaker 12 (58:12):
Smart it's oh man all the time? I have no no, no,
no no, the chocolate is spicy.

Speaker 1 (58:19):
You won't like it. It's pretty good. I like it. Thank you, Angie.
You have a great day, you too. Let me see
here to help with meltdowns when leaving the park, saying
goodbye to the park. Oh, say goodbye to the park.
Okay that we say good night to Miss Rachel.

Speaker 3 (58:34):
I let her watch a little bit before bed, and
I always say, okay, we say good night, Miss Rachel
and she waved to the TV.

Speaker 1 (58:39):
Yeah, so it works. I haven't had a meltdown along
the same as along as the same lines as Paulina.
My son always wants to go outside at the crack
of dawn, but whether it's the heat of summer or not,
I always say, it's too cold to go side. Hey, Ashley,
how do you do it? I'm good, Ashley. What do
you tell your kid? You lie to your kid because
you don't want to do something. I lie and tell

(59:00):
them the TV died when they want to watch Louis
for a million times, and I sure they don't know
how to turn it on. They must not know how
to do it themselves. No, they do.

Speaker 19 (59:08):
But so we have a Samsung TV and you can
control it on your phone.

Speaker 1 (59:11):
So I just go to my phone and turn TV off.

Speaker 11 (59:13):
I'm like, oh, no, it died.

Speaker 1 (59:15):
Oh you know, not the dead TV a yet. Oh
my god.

Speaker 11 (59:20):
I keep watching the same episodes of Blue.

Speaker 1 (59:23):
That's I can't I like blue, but no, thank you.
Actually have a good day, you too. Oh this is
this is wildly traumatic. Whenever there's a carnival, I hate
the rides, and I tell my four year old the
rides are closed to little kids because one fell out. Trauma.
Oh my god, wow hate Lisa. Yes, the kid's never

(59:48):
going to go to ride ever, Lisa, how do you
lie to your kid?

Speaker 13 (59:51):
I tell my my teenagers now so they know better,
but I.

Speaker 19 (59:55):
Tell I used to tell them that they if they
were really bad, I would rip up their birth certificate
and they will have ceased to exist.

Speaker 1 (01:00:01):
Whoa, whoa, whoa?

Speaker 10 (01:00:06):
What?

Speaker 1 (01:00:07):
Hey? You got piece of papers? Not there? They you
not a thing? Where are they?

Speaker 11 (01:00:12):
My son?

Speaker 14 (01:00:13):
My son and all of his infinite wisdom would say, well,
you'll miss me. How would I miss you if you
ever existed?

Speaker 1 (01:00:18):
Wow, you're trying to erase your child, Lisa. Oh my god,
I'm gonna write that one down. Thank you, Lisa, jered welcome.
I take you out if I don't want to raser
old text. But I don't want to buy McDonald's. I
say they're out of chicken nuggets. We tell our two
year old that yogurt is ice. Cream.

Speaker 2 (01:00:36):
That's a good one.

Speaker 1 (01:00:37):
That's pretty smart. M Let me see here. I tell
my kids when they're being naughty that I was going
to put them in the school for naughty kids. I
think that's called prison. When I was little and I
had just learned how to read, my mom told me
one night that McDonald's was closed as we drove by
a scream, but the sign says drive through open. Twenty

(01:00:58):
four hours is a jam more literacy, I tell you more.
Fread Show next the City Like, I'm at a point
in my life where I don't if there's any chance
that leaving the house is a dangerous activity, if there's
any chance that we might find ourselves banging on the

(01:01:18):
door of a twenty four hour duncan, that's not open.
If if we're finding ourselves in a position where the
public bathroom is going to be a mandatory experience, then
I probably am not leaving the house. That's where I'm
at in my life. I follow that role. I'd never
be here. Freadshow is on. I don't have an issue
with a woman proposing to me. I just no. I mean,

(01:01:38):
if that's what she wants to do, then you know
we're so it would it would depend on the circumstances.

Speaker 2 (01:01:44):
If you liked her and loved her a lot.

Speaker 1 (01:01:45):
I guess if I I guess, I'm to be honest
with you, though knowing myself, if if I felt that way,
then I would have already done it. I would have
been the one to do it. So odds sorry. If
someone's having to propose to me, then then I probably
wasn't in a big hurry to do it, or I
wasn't in as big of a hurry to do it.
It's the Fred Show. Do you have what it takes

(01:02:06):

I did the most Anna stressed you guys. I hit
a Fenway Park and then the Bad Honey concert. I
went all over, even to the Island of Party. Were
in different places, entirely crazy. And it's not even that
you came home and change your underwear. I did, and
they went there. It's just crazy to me. Hey, Jim,

(01:02:47):
good morning, Jim, good morning, How are you? Jim? Welcome?
Fun fact about you? Would be.

Speaker 12 (01:02:54):

Okay, okay, and then what are your kids names?

Speaker 9 (01:03:12):

Speaker 1 (01:03:13):
Well, how to everybody? So this is general knowledge trivia.
We've been playing this game for years on Game Show.
Wednesday was invented one day when Shelley was out, and
it's living up to its name. Paulina's record ninety three wins,
one hundred and one losses. Good luck, guys, all right,
good luck. I'm forget Paulina's over here. She's going her
feet kicked up. She just chill and drinking her coffee.
I'm like, oh, you gotta go, get out, you gotta go,

(01:03:36):
all right, Jim. Question number one on which part of
the human body would you find the optic nerve the eye?
Which color flag would you wave to surrender? Which continent
is currently home to the majority of lions in the world, Africa?

(01:03:59):
What color or do you get when you mix red
and yellow? Two?

Speaker 10 (01:04:07):
Green?

Speaker 1 (01:04:08):
And in which US state would you find? Area fifty one,
New Mexico. That's actually a three, believe it or not. Yeah,
I know, I know I can. Yeah, A three. So
you got a shot here. Now tie does go to
you since we only play once a week. Are you ready?

(01:04:28):
I think so? All right? On which part of the
human body would you find the optic nerve?

Speaker 2 (01:04:35):
Which parts your eyes?

Speaker 17 (01:04:37):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (01:04:39):
Which color flag would you wave to surrender? That is red?
It is not. It's a wave the Wayne flag. I
wave the white flag every day, every day. I have
one right here, And so all this time you've been
wondering why I'm waving it. I'm surrendering. Which continent is
currently home the majority of lions in the world, Africa?

(01:05:03):
It is correct? What color do you get when you
mix red and yellow?

Speaker 2 (01:05:08):
I hate this one red and yellow?

Speaker 1 (01:05:10):
Was that green?

Speaker 10 (01:05:12):
No?

Speaker 1 (01:05:12):
He said that too, you get orange?

Speaker 5 (01:05:14):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:05:14):
So finally I believe you. You have to get this right.
You have to get this to tie. Otherwise Jim is
the winner.

Speaker 2 (01:05:21):
Oh Jim.

Speaker 1 (01:05:22):
In which US state would you find? Area fifty one? Oh? Nevada?
That's right. Now, that's just a tie. But a tie
is a win for me on the rules. But Jim,
we're gonna get you something. Win Number ninety four Jimmy
did a good job though. That could work.

Speaker 10 (01:05:39):
Thank you.

Speaker 1 (01:05:40):
Nevada, New Mexico they're closed. They both got a lot
of like open space. Who knows, there's probably years. They're
probably aliens in New Mexico too. They waddled over, so
I think, So hang on a second, jim have a
good day.

Speaker 11 (01:05:52):
Thanks.

Speaker 1 (01:05:53):
Did you know they say they get the aliens Area
fifty one, that's where they keep them. Oh, I know,
that's where that's my next fascination. Like travel list, you're
going to go to Area fifty one.

Speaker 3 (01:06:01):
I would love to, but they'll get rid of me
so quick out the site right.

Speaker 1 (01:06:05):
You're not, unfortunately, not able to pull up on Area
fifty one.

Speaker 20 (01:06:08):
I would love to go there, like just for the story.
There is an airline that flies there. Woho you no,
I'm supposed to be talking about this. But there's a
special terminal and they got white airplanes with a red
stripe on the side of them.

Speaker 1 (01:06:24):
This is a real story. It's called Janet Airlines, and
they go to this government owned airline and they fly there.
They fly people that live in Vegas to there to
work every day and fly them home to work because
people worked obviously with aliens, alien translators, or whatever. I'm
applying for a job right now. Well, I'm sure I'm

(01:06:44):
priabed the CIA or something that come after me. I
think that's I mean, you can google. I read that
on Google. I don't know if it's true. That's crazy allegedly,
sounds like you've been right. What do you know? I'm
an alien? Sometimes I feel like New Year's Eve. It's
the French show. You had shared earlier than we that
you're planning the maid of honor and you're planning a
bachelorette party and there's one holdout. There's one loan holdout,

(01:07:05):
a girl who will not pay you for this stuff
that you need to get repaid for in the planning process.
And we're early in the game. We have it, We're
not even we're not even in range of the party yet.
This is just early early stuff. Don't remind me. Yeah,
So I took some of the.

Speaker 13 (01:07:22):
Listener's suggestions, and they had a lot of good ones.
I'm familiar with split wise, but for the amount of
payments and the fact it's just me, I'm like, that
seems like an extra step. So a lot of people
suggested just request her try what happens then, which is
like still wild because I've sent three texts that I know,
you know she's in the group, but it took me
all week.

Speaker 2 (01:07:41):
I've been stretching, I did some sprints.

Speaker 13 (01:07:44):
I had to really like gas myself up to request
and still crickets.

Speaker 1 (01:07:49):
Wow, God, it's so wide.

Speaker 13 (01:07:52):
I know, it's mind blowing because there was a time
like growing up in my group of friends, like we
became friends very young in life, so there was a
time where we were all very broke.

Speaker 2 (01:08:03):
Some of us still are like me, but.

Speaker 13 (01:08:05):
Very very broke, and like a lot of people would
be cheap and that was really annoying and frustrating, and
so it kind of got hard to plan things or
whatever because people wouldn't answer yet it But I thought
I had grown out of.

Speaker 2 (01:08:15):
This phase at thirty three years old, so I can't
believe that I am still dealing with it.

Speaker 1 (01:08:21):
So she shows you what it was this how much
was it? Sixty bucks?

Speaker 2 (01:08:24):
Six dollars?

Speaker 1 (01:08:25):
Shows you sixty six dollars? Now how much do you think,
like the fight? What's the next installment? Like, I mean,
she ows you sixty six, but it's about to get
a lot more expensive because I mean you're planning all
of it, right, so you're like the Airbnb and whatever
the activities are. So we're talking, you know, I don't know,
a thousand bucks or something. She's going to owe you more.
I don't know.

Speaker 13 (01:08:44):
Yeah, Well, prior to the to actually getting there, there's
only three payments that I think anyone really needs to
worry about.

Speaker 2 (01:08:50):
It's the airbnb. Well, it's a vrbo same thing verbo.

Speaker 13 (01:08:53):
I think you actually say, I learned, and it's that's
split in two payments, which I actually liked because it
was one early on and then one closer to the thing.

Speaker 1 (01:09:02):
So those are those are two payments which she paid me.

Speaker 13 (01:09:04):
The first one of those and that's way higher than
the sixty six dollars, which is interesting. And then there
was like a boat there's like a boat thing situation
that my friend the bride wanted to do.

Speaker 1 (01:09:15):
And so that's what this is for.

Speaker 13 (01:09:17):
So there's not a ton of things like beforehand that
I'm gonna.

Speaker 2 (01:09:22):
Need to collect. So that's why it's also so frustrating.

Speaker 1 (01:09:24):
You have me to handle this, you have going to
be the collections department kind of Yeah, Dexter and say hi,
I'm calling from the toll way and you owe sixty
six dollars.

Speaker 13 (01:09:31):
Yeah, kind of, I mean send her a link and like,
I don't know, charge your interest at this point.

Speaker 2 (01:09:37):
I mean it's it's stupid.

Speaker 13 (01:09:38):
I feel goofy, like I don't I can cover her
sixty six dollars.

Speaker 2 (01:09:41):
I just feel like it's kind of disrespectful.

Speaker 1 (01:09:43):
I would agree. No, I'm gonna call and say that
I'm calling from the Big Back Collections department for Kaitlin Incorporated.
And you owe sixty six dollars and if you don't
pay it right now, we're gonna garnish your wages perfect. Yeah.
And there's interest. Yeah, you should you start charging your interest.
Every week she doesn't pay you add another ten dollars.

Speaker 2 (01:09:59):
Yeah, yeah, I should. I'm going to just show up
to her house with a bat. Just get That's what
I'm saying.

Speaker 1 (01:10:04):
Tony Soprano Run the Thread Show is on Fread's Fun.

Speaker 21 (01:10:08):
Fact Fred's Fund Learn so much, guys.

Speaker 1 (01:10:20):
Did you know that Sears the store Sears once offered
kit houses. You could buy a house from Sears, but
you had to put it together yourself. What the original
instruction manual was? Seven manual was seventy five pages long.
This was much before every city and state in the
US had a Walmart apparently. But you could buy a

(01:10:40):
home and it would show up like in a box,
and then you put it together with instructions.

Speaker 3 (01:10:47):
So come in handy today with this housing market. Yeah,
I would build my own, I think I would. I
think I would do that.

Speaker 1 (01:10:54):
But yeah, Sears once sold houses that you put together yourself.
That's a high. Miss the Shrews more Fred Show next
right here.
