Kiki, I'm feeling strong. I don't think it's my year,
but I'm feeling strong. And you know I love this
game Winter or Lose.

Speaker 2 (02:22):
I love it.

Speaker 1 (02:23):
So it's a throwback. Name that tune game. We defined
a throwback, well, the suits did as six and a
half years are older, because I was going way back
and I still will sometimes you should. But then they
were like, well, I no, we knows those songs. Okay,
Well the point is not. The point is that the
people in the room playing the game know the song.
That's the point of the game. So some of these
I'm like, this is this is seven years old? I

(02:44):
feel like it was yesterday. We'll do that waiting by
the phone this morning? Why did somebody get ghosted? And
more coming up. I'm about to save you, Kiki, save me.
I'm about to save you right now. You're gonna thank
me later. We don't need a wedding swing. We don't
need a photo shoot a you all over the place.
We don't need fireworks, we don't need pyrotechnics, and we
don't need four bands. We don't need venue changes. We

(03:07):
don't need you levitating in we don't need raisin canes afterwards,
We don't need anything.

Speaker 2 (03:14):
Right, what are you talking about?

Speaker 1 (03:15):
Research suggests that how much couples spend on their wedding
may influence the chance that their marriage lasts.

Speaker 2 (03:22):
Who cares about that? Who cares if it lasts? You know,
we had a good time time.

Speaker 1 (03:30):
We just want to have a big day, and it doesn't.
You already made it this far, right, and by that
point it will be what nine years have been together,
nine and a half years by the time you get
to the altar. But who cares if it all melts
down right away? As long as it was a great night.

Speaker 2 (03:43):
We had a good run. We went out with a bang.

Speaker 1 (03:45):
Studies showed the couples who spend more than about twenty
thousand dollars on their weddings are significantly more likely to
divorce later than those who spend a more modest amount,
while lower costs serm Wait, spend more than twenty on
their wedding are significantly more likely to divorce. Yeah, okay,
so the more you that's why the way right it quickly?
The more you spend, the more likely you already get divorced.

(04:07):
According to this lower cost ceremonies tend to be linked
with stronger long term marriages. The takeaway, keeping wedding expenses
reasonable and avoiding starting married life under heavy financial strain
might actually help your relationship thrive. I've been saying this.
You've been saying this a single guy, never engaged, never married.
I've been telling you guys how to do it.

Speaker 2 (04:28):
Gives good advice, though you do I hate, I'll give
you that part.

Speaker 1 (04:32):
That's your thing. Yeah, I have a a lot of
opinions and a lot of perspectives. I've made a career
out of it. It doesn't mean that I could live
my own life properly. That No one said that. That
was not part of the deal. No, did you say
twenty thousand dollars? Twenty thousand dollars? It still seems really cheap,
Well right, I mean, but yea more twenties the threshold.
So people spend you know, a lot more than that,

(04:53):
I guess.

Speaker 2 (04:53):
But oh yeah, I'm assuming.

Speaker 1 (04:55):
So you don't even have to spend a lot of money.

Speaker 2 (04:58):
Well I know I have to.

Speaker 4 (04:59):
But you know, I agree at this study, and I'm
sure is very true because think about it, you don't
you don't go into your marriage with a bunch of debts.
The more money you spend means the more people you
have at your wedding, the more people you have in
your wedding. So there's probably less family drama, you know,
and so you're not good for them.

Speaker 1 (05:16):
I want to take a quick survey, though, eight five, five, five,
three five You can contact the same number. First of all,
did you spend a ton of money on your wedding? One? Two?
Are you still married? Three? Was it worth it? Truly
worth it?

Speaker 5 (05:30):
Four?

Speaker 2 (05:30):
What's your favorite calling?

Speaker 1 (05:32):
What is your social Security number? And your mother's maiden name.
But I'm serious, I mean I said this a thousand
times and reference to a bunch of different people's weddings.
It's like, I don't remember what I ate at ninety
nine percent of the weddings I've been to. I remember
like some of the cool stuff. Like I remember at
the end, somebody brought out like sliders or something at
the end, someone wet McDonald's cheeseburgers at the very very

(05:54):
end of it. That's cool.

Speaker 2 (05:55):
Yeah, I love the drunk food.

Speaker 1 (05:56):
I mean that's cool. But like that is the jump
is right, the cheapest part of the nine somebody ran
the wedding plan. It ran on down there and you know,
ordered one hundred Hamburgers and passed them out at the end.
I mean I could have done that for you. I
get a door dash it for less than you spent.

Speaker 3 (06:09):
I will say, the most fun weddings I've been to
are the ones that are more chill like. I just
like thinking of all the weddings I've been to, like
in a barn with solo cups or you know, just
like a chill but.

Speaker 1 (06:20):
Keeping it simple. And maybe it wasn't as much money
to do it that way. I mean, who knows, maybe
the barn with the solo cups actually logistically was very
expensive or hard to do. I don't know. Was it
their barn and there it was in.

Speaker 2 (06:32):
West Virginia and okay, yeah it was, Yeah it was.

Speaker 1 (06:35):
I think the weddings that were intended to look simple, no,
but like they were in the middle. Like I went
to one wedding I didn't know what I was getting into.
It was somewhere in Colorado. I can't remember brecon Ridge Steamboat.
Maybe steamboat was in Steamboat.

Speaker 2 (06:46):
I don't know why.

Speaker 1 (06:47):
It was in the middle of a forest. Yeah, there
was like a clearing and it literally was just chairs
and trees, and I'm like, well this now, of course,
we were all busts there on luxury. I mean, this
was this wedding probably customly nice and actuality. It probably could,
but like at first, it's very simple. Yeah, Like we
pull up, there's like trees, the forests, like there was

(07:08):
I think I think there was, like there were drinks
and water in plastic cups. And I'm like, okay or
something like, very very simple. We walk into this, you know,
this opening and the forests and there was chairs and
I'm like, okay, very simple. Only for us to be
led down this path through this entire village that they
built in the middle of the forest with like glass
tops and and oh my god, it was over the

(07:30):
top and it was cool and I had a good
time and I set it a good table and it
was all good. And these people had a lot of money,
so fine. But at first I'm thinking the buses were
the most like this is a campsite, like this is
no big deal. Oh my god, No, this was a
whole thing. And then I later went it was like
in Conde Nast or one of those you know, like
Vanity Fair or something like one of these venues that

(07:52):
like famous people tried, and you know, people line up
for years to get into this thing. And I'm going
and they're a nice couple, they're still married, they have kids,
they're wonderful people. I hope to stay together forever. But
I'm thinking, man, there was a teepee. They had a
tpe erected at this thing. I mean, not with some
lady in a te at a wedding.

Speaker 2 (08:08):
Yeah, yes, so I remember all of that.

Speaker 1 (08:11):
Maybe I'm full of it. I am, well, I am
full of it, But yeah, you need a tepee.

Speaker 3 (08:15):
I need a Oh my gosh, if you make out
with someone at Kiki's wedding, that would make me so happy.

Speaker 1 (08:19):
I think I'm going to know everybody at Kiki's wedding.

Speaker 2 (08:22):
So no, no, no, no, I got so many women
lined up for you at my wedding period.

Speaker 1 (08:28):
Outside contest you're doing where you can buy one hundred
dollars raffles. I see what you're up to. You're selling
raffle tickets so you can have the worst night of
your life. And as a wedding date, I'm not a
good wedding date. I'm I'm not a good because if
dancing is the main entertainment thing at the wedding, I don't.
I'm not a dancer.

Speaker 2 (08:44):
Oh yeah, Shelley's wedding. We were trying to get you
out there and you were like no, I'm good.

Speaker 1 (08:48):
No, but none of them maybe you were dancing, but
a few of us in the group we all sat
in the corner and didn't dance, like I didn't feel alone,
not want to do dance. And then Shelley's sister came
over and like bullied me. She wanted do yeah, and
I didn't because at that point, because we came, we
were invited later in the evening, so everybody was ready
to go when we arrived, and we were not. We

(09:11):
were not prepared for I wasn't prepared for that. I
should have pre party for two hours before. He should
have to be, you know, in line with these people.
I think Mike had a shirt off by that point,
which is not uncommon for military mind Shelley's husband to
have his shirt off. But yeah, no, hey, Natalie, how
you doing. Natalie? You eloped, You've been married for eight

(09:33):
years and so it cost you very little.

Speaker 6 (09:35):
I assume very little, okay, and we just you go ahead,
we decided we weren't gonna do all that wedding stuff,
especially since when we're getting married, we saw so many
people get divorced, especially in our families, and we said,
we're not going to waste our time.

Speaker 2 (09:55):
If this isn't going to be ten years, we're not
going to do a big party.

Speaker 1 (09:58):
For what that's interesting? Like what if you had a
really simple wedding and then you celebrate making it past
the national average with like a big shin digine, and
then you could save slowly for that and make it
exactly what you want. You have all this time because
you don't have to. You can do it ten years,
you can do it fifteen, you do twenty something like that.
So you didn't spend a lot of money, and you're

(10:19):
happy and you're together, and you're not broke.

Speaker 7 (10:21):
At least not from that, not from that for sure,
right exactly.

Speaker 1 (10:27):
You're not broker than broke. Then thank you, Natalie, have
a good day you too. I'm glad you called Sonia.
How you doing, Sonia?

Speaker 7 (10:35):
Oh I'm doing great, Fred, how are you doing well?

Speaker 1 (10:37):
You're about to blow up my theory because you spent
less than ten k and your divorce.

Speaker 8 (10:43):
You got it.

Speaker 2 (10:43):
It was one hundred and fifty people less than ten k.
Granted that was twenty.

Speaker 9 (10:48):
Fourteen, so prices were cheaper, But the theory does not
check out.

Speaker 1 (10:54):
All right, So without layers, if you had it to
do over again, would you've just had a bigger wedding,
because why not? Or I mean, did you get the
wedding that you wanted and it didn't work out? I
mean did you try and save on it?

Speaker 2 (11:07):
Yes, yes, we tried to save on it.

Speaker 10 (11:09):
And I would do it over again because Fred, my
friends still say this was the best party they've ever
went to.

Speaker 7 (11:14):
Was the best party I've ever thrown.

Speaker 1 (11:16):
Each doesn't want to hear from a lot of people.
I hear that, And this is what Kiki's saying too.
It's like, look, look, yeah, the wedding whatever, whatever, But like,
this is my time to shine. This is my time
to have my night, my way, do it how I want.
And if it costs ever much, it costs by it,
and if it melts down that we still had a
great night. I look at it too, pragmatically, just like
everything else.

Speaker 7 (11:35):
Perfect.

Speaker 1 (11:35):
Hey love you guys, Hey have a good day. Fred
Henter Lawrence back for twenty twenty six. This is a
woman who for the last two years has told us
she's forced to listen, but yet listens every day, probably
more than most people. Fred starting out twenty twenty six
with how many girls he soaked up with? When did
I even say that?

Speaker 2 (11:51):
You're always braggings?

Speaker 1 (11:54):
Segment is next, where we do the daily tote board
of how many people I've hooked up with? You we
haven't got in there. You're ahead of yourself, Fred Hayter
Lauren Lauren.

Speaker 3 (12:02):
Wait for Jason and I's podcast where we have every
woman one.

Speaker 1 (12:08):
Oh my god, they'll never run out of a podcast
that we liked and we miss You have to date them.

Speaker 2 (12:15):
You always ring them around and we get attached to
the kids are happy, Jason and I loved and we're like,
where are they?

Speaker 1 (12:26):
Everybody I've ever dated is married with kids are happy
now and when they weren't happy with me makes perfect sense.
They're satisfied with their lives. They feel fulfilled. What do
you mean? I just I love this person because I
don't know what show you're listening to, but it sounds
better than the one that we're doing. Hey, Aaron, how
you doing?

Speaker 11 (12:47):
Hi?

Speaker 1 (12:48):
Aaron? I don't know, you know they say that, like,
what is that saying about haters? Like, I think our
haters spend way more time with this show than the
people that like it. Haters are your motivators. I mean,
it's I appreciate it. Thank you. You know, if you
don't like it, you like it. I don't care. Listen
as long as its possible. I appreciate your loyalty either way,
whether it's lover or hate. Aeron, are you are you
on the lover of the hate side? I'm just curious.

Speaker 8 (13:10):
Oh, I'm I'm on the love part here.

Speaker 1 (13:12):
This is great, this is fine. You how much have
you spent on your wedding?

Speaker 2 (13:17):
Seventy thousand dollars?

Speaker 1 (13:19):
Seventy thousand dollars and what is a drum roll? Please?

Speaker 8 (13:22):
Seven D seven zero.

Speaker 1 (13:24):
Yeah seven z's seventy thousand dollars and drum roll? Where
are we at.

Speaker 2 (13:30):
Three years, happily married and expecting our first baby?

Speaker 7 (13:33):
There you go.

Speaker 1 (13:35):
I think so this is poppycock. That is what you're saying,
This twenty thousand dollars thing. Yeah, yeah, no, that's crap.

Speaker 2 (13:41):
I mean maybe now it's thirty five. It would be
probably a lot more to get what I got but
I'm a kiki.

Speaker 8 (13:47):
It's like the day of your life.

Speaker 2 (13:48):
I give you what you want and honestly, my husband
help me gets like the green wedding. So when you
find the right one, you side together and.

Speaker 1 (13:56):
Set up there you go, why not? Aaron, have a
good day. Thanks for calling and for listening. Someone sectioned
Fred's good luck Chuck, I am, I am? You know
you date me and you're like, I need to get
my life together, and then you go find someone and
get married. It's fine now, I will say there have
been two cycles of my life where people get married,

(14:16):
and then there's two cycles of my life where they
come back. And we're entering into one of those again
now where some of the ones from the past are
beginning to emerge again. The problem is some of them
are not divorced yet. Hi, Sarah, how you doing? It's
a nasty world out there. How you do it?

Speaker 7 (14:32):
Hi?

Speaker 2 (14:32):
Good morning?

Speaker 1 (14:33):
I'm good. How are you Sarah? How much you spent? Great?
And thanks for listening. You spent how much on your wedding?
And where are we at?

Speaker 2 (14:41):
It was about twenty two thousand. We were in Urbana, Illinois,
very very small venue. She had just started out honestly,
we spent more on our open bar than we did
anything else.

Speaker 1 (14:51):
Yep, okay, all right, So essentially, though you've written here,
you had a barbecue wedding, spent twenty two K, and
you're still together.

Speaker 2 (15:00):
Yes, we are, and we actually moved to Georgia. So
I'm listening from Georgia.

Speaker 1 (15:03):
Well, thank thank you for we appreciate that. Thank you
so much. And so maybe this twenty thousand dollars thing
is right, because twenty two that's closed. So and you
guys are happy. So thank you, Sarah, Yes, thank you
having Gooday, put us on a radio station in Georgia,
somewhere we need Georgia. We got North Carolina on lock
doing great North. We got North Dakota on lock. Well, No,

(15:24):
no one's listening in Charlotte that no one even knows exists.
And then but you know Raleigh, Raleiah, Yes, they love
us in Raleigah. Apparently God bless you. Brandon, Brandon, you
I'm talking to you. Brandon Hat says yeah, Brandon decided
to hang up sixty five grand still married, he said,

(15:47):
So I don't know, maybe this is all BS, Yes
it is, but I can see a world where it
would make sense that you if you don't spend as
much money and you don't feel as much pressure to
you know, because a lot of people are going into big,
major debt for this. I mean, who's gotten seventy thousand
dollars of laying around so you're going into dad. I'd
say the same thing about rings. People spend all this
money on a ring. Good for you if you can

(16:07):
afford it. But if you can, now you've got these
payments and this pressure. So now you've started your life
together with all these bills that you have to pay,
and yet you're still trying to figure out how to navigate,
you know, being in a relationship, being together. So I
just think it would be prudent to maybe just spend
what you can afford and then you know, build on
it as you as you stayed together the longer.

Speaker 2 (16:27):
Would you guys be pissed if you traveled?

Speaker 3 (16:29):
I told you guys off the air that I have
friends who like, had this big wedding in Spain and
it was in vogue and it was so elaborate, and
not even less than a year later, they're already divorced.

Speaker 2 (16:39):
Like, would you guys be pissed if you like, traveled
all that way and you as a guest. Yes, if
I was a guest, i'd be hot.

Speaker 1 (16:45):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (16:45):
Did you enjoy yourself though? Because you went to Spain?
I didn't go, but it looked beautiful. A lot of
my friends went.

Speaker 2 (16:52):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (16:53):
I guess I would have to ask them, but I'd
be like the date of experience. Yeah, so it's crazy though,
the date for ten years, you have this huge wedding
and then what could happen?

Speaker 11 (17:02):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (17:04):
This is why I sometimes wonder if I'm better off
just dating someone forever. You'll give him a ring in
the commitment, because explain to me, like, how are you
to get it for a decade and then divorce within
a year. The only thing that change was that you
went to Spain and got married, So you know what
I mean? Like, what do we just skip that part?
And they're probably still together.

Speaker 3 (17:23):
I have a friend that's been engaged for five years
and I don't know if they'll ever get married, which
I think is an interesting one.

Speaker 1 (17:28):
Like well and Camlin. People hear me say this or
us talk about this, and they're like, wellether he has
a commitment issue or whatever. No, I don't like I
would get with we get together, we can move in together,
but perhaps separate houses connected with a tunnel of some kind,
and then a ring and the whole thing. It has
nothing to do with seeing other people. It has nothing
to do with variety, has nothing to do with the
concerned about being with one person for the rest of
my life. It has everything to do with the thing

(17:50):
falling apart, because you see it all the time. People
date forever and ever and ever, they get married and
then it just melts down. Why it's got to be
a mental thing. Matt. You spent five grand on your wedding.
It's not even five grand. Okay, Well tell me about it.
I mean, tell me about your five thousand dollars wedding,
because I bet it was dope.

Speaker 2 (18:07):
Yeah, yeah, show.

Speaker 8 (18:10):
We had about fifty to seventy five guests, not sure exactly.

Speaker 1 (18:14):
Wedding on the river, beautiful venue.

Speaker 8 (18:17):
We decorated everything ourselves, had a barbecue, catering done.

Speaker 1 (18:22):
It was great. I love it. And you're sill together yep,
been married twelve years. There you go. Okay, So the
point for my not my theory, but this is the
research theory. You have a barbecue. Thank you, Matt, have
a good day's well, all Christian can be that Christian.
You spent seven hundred dollars.

Speaker 9 (18:40):
What.

Speaker 1 (18:42):
What did you spend it on?

Speaker 8 (18:45):
Honestly, I think the judge was about two hundred and fifty.

Speaker 2 (18:50):
Yeah, she bought a dress.

Speaker 1 (18:52):
I bought a suit and uh room, Okay, yeah we got,
we got.

Speaker 8 (19:00):
We got married in the literally in the beginning of COVID,
so it was twenty twenty. It kind of worked out
perfect because me and me, me and the wife, we
don't really like big events when we have to pay
for fluff people, and so.

Speaker 1 (19:14):
We were outside at a forest reserve pretty much.

Speaker 8 (19:22):
They allowed us to use some force reserve for free.
We set up our family set up for us. We
had about twelve people only, and the judge came out
at the wedding. We zoomed it to everybody. Everybody could
be on zoom and watch the wedding that had about
one hundred and some people. But yeah, we didn't have
to pay for.

Speaker 1 (19:40):
All of that.

Speaker 8 (19:41):
And then we closed on a house Michael week and
a half later.

Speaker 1 (19:43):
So see that was smart because you probably wound up
spending your money on that instead, and that probably will
work out better in the long term. Good for you, Christian,
have a good day.

Speaker 2 (19:52):
That's awesome you too.

Speaker 1 (19:54):
See he makes an excellent point too, think about kick.
You don't have to say, like specifically, then how many
people coming your wedding?

Speaker 2 (20:00):
Two hundred and fifty?

Speaker 10 (20:02):
WHOA.

Speaker 1 (20:02):
Now, you're not going to answer this question, honestly, because
I don't know that many people would. But of the
two fifty, truly, truly, how many would you demand attend?
What percentage? Twenty seventy five? Okay, even then, so's twenty
five percent of the people there, which is what about

(20:24):
seventy people? I'm just off the top of my head,
are fluff for people that you're paying However many how
much much money for?

Speaker 2 (20:31):
Absolutely?

Speaker 1 (20:32):
They don't have to be there, yes, And I think
that's true at every wedding. You know, it's all my
mom's you know, coworker has to be there, my dentist
from kindergarten has to be there. My Yeah, I don't know.
These people are there and you're paying for this, but
like they are not essential to the operation.

Speaker 4 (20:47):
Yes, but you know, I don't want I'm like making
people feel left out, you know. I like to be
invited to everything, so I feel like everybody should be invited.

Speaker 1 (20:54):
Okay, but see there you go. That is money that
you're having to spend on something that if you just hey.

Speaker 2 (20:58):
If if we can do the United cent I would
do it good.

Speaker 1 (21:05):
I know we can get into All State Arena. Fred's
show is on Fred's Biggest Stories of the Day. So
you know, this is a just a hodgepodge of topics,
stuff that we think you should notice starts your morning,
and usually it's uh, you know, not real serious, not
really politics, mostly opinion. But I would remiss if I
didn't bring up quickly a serious story. An immigration cracked

(21:29):
down a Minneapolis turned deadly yesterday when a federal immigration
officer fatally shot a woman. Unfortunately, this is a story
we're gonna have to keep an eye on because the
governor there, Tim Wallson, at his office, is gathering information
about the shooting, and at a press conference said that
he has ordered the Minnesota National Guard to be ready
to deployed to be deployed to the state. Tragic, very tragic.

(21:52):
And then a tragic shooting in Salt Lake City last
night as well. So I hate to start like that,
but don't worry. We'll make a hard pivot now right
to wegovy because you know, you know I love talking
about weight loss drugs.

Speaker 2 (22:05):
Might as well just have a segment in the report.

Speaker 1 (22:07):
Yeah, well, because it's a lot of right because money
was the pill. And then I share with you my
bitterness about the people who are gonna look hotter than
me for taking a pill that I could easily take.
I'm just concerned that I'm going to grow like a
tail or, a you know, some kind of limb I
don't need, or something like that. I just think it's
too easy, and I don't have any scientific research to
back that up. And if you need it, take it.
If it helps your life, take it great. But if

(22:30):
you don't want to get out a little treadmill, enjoy
your tail Researchers looked at data on thousands of people
who use popular weight loss injections like Oozemphic, wegov and
Manjoro and found a clear pattern. When people stopped taking them,
almost all the weight they lost comes back and fast.
On average, folks regained nearly a pound a month after
stopping the drugs, and we're back to their original weight

(22:53):
in about a year and a half to two years.
The improvements in things like blood pressure and cholesterol also
faded once the medication was stopped. By the way, I
have no idea what I'm talking about with these things, Like,
I'm just it's just me satirically being bitter that people
look hotter than I do with less effort. That's all
I'm saying. And so I may I may grow a
tail myself.

Speaker 2 (23:13):
It looks so hot, right hot.

Speaker 1 (23:15):
With a tail, I could be hotter. I could be skinnier,
I could be way skinnyer. No, yeah, I could. But
scientists are basically saying that you may have to just
take these things forever, like if you start, then you
would have to just take it for the rest of
your life, like a life.

Speaker 10 (23:27):
Yeah, lifelong thing. That's what I'm afraid of. I'm like,
I don't want to go back on it because.

Speaker 2 (23:30):
I know that I will regain the weight.

Speaker 10 (23:32):
So I'm doing your method, which is yet my butt
on the treadmill and go to Planet Fitness and work out.

Speaker 1 (23:38):
Well, my method is to go to Planet Fitness and
work out with the giddy and the torture. But then
also least I order insomnia cookies. So like, it's not it,
this is all on me. It's a thousand percent on me.
There are like four hundred pounds of cookies in my
stomach right now because of course I ate them and
then went to bed, which is even better for you.

Speaker 2 (23:55):
They're just sitting in there.

Speaker 1 (23:56):
Yeah. I know it's not great, but I don't have
much discipline. I get a craving and I e's like
chicken breast all day, like in like you know, carrots,
and then at the end of the day, I'm starving.
Why you ordered seven hundred pounds of insomnia cookies, which
are delicious, I must say it was worth it. Open
ai I've got health news. It's all health news. This

(24:17):
is right for right up your alley, Paulina, I'm ready man.
Everything she does is chat gpt now. Open ai has
launched chat GPT health. What could possibly go wrong? Open
Aiy is launching this to deal with the two hundred
and thirty million people who ask the chat butt health
questions each week. Chat GPT health will keep health questions
separate from other chats. Open Aiy says that it will

(24:39):
not use health questions to train its models. The company
does stress it is not intended for diagnosis and treatment
and it's not supposed to replace medical care, but to
help users navigate their own health information. And I'm sure
doctors and nurses listening. Now, if you're one of the doctors,
don't listen to us, but nurses and whoever, maybe nurses,
and not a lot of nurses do. I think I

(25:00):
think maybe doctors do too. I think we've talked about
this recently because I think this is just kind of
dumbs it down for him. You know, everything's serious and
you're smart and saving lives and this is not. So
you drive in and you just see it's a nice
release to hear a bunch of more on talking about whatever.
But I'm sure you hear this and you go, great,
this is gonna make my life so much harder now,
as if Google wasn't bad enough, because I'm guilty of that.

(25:23):
You know, they'll be like a bump on my leg
or something, and I know how I bumped into something
like it's I know how I did it, or like
an ingrown hair. I know I have a headache. I
Google like I have a headache. Oh, you have brain tumor.
And then I get all worked up about it and
I go to the doctor. Doc, I'm dead, I died.
I am dead. I have a brain tumor. I already died.
And then they're like, and they always do that, they

(25:43):
go because they because you don't know you and you
work yourself up and you now your blood pressures through
the roof and now and you're all, you know, upset
and it turns out that there's nothing wrong with you.
Take some time when I'll and go home. And I
think this is probably making everyone lives in the medical
industry more difficult. But at the same time, if they

(26:03):
get this dialed in, I mean, if I would imagine
that it is or will be responsible for discovering things
that are like deep in the textbooks that maybe doctors
don't think of right off the bat because we're human
and we don't remember everything. So it's possible if they
get this, you know, targeted correctly, that you could type
in a bunch of symptoms and it could spit out
some stuff that like may be more rare or some

(26:25):
ideas that people haven't come up with. So I suppose,
but I don't think we. I don't think Pauline and
I need access to this. I need access all nobody don't.
Maybe doctors can have access to it because they know
what they're looking at and they know like the probabilities
and stuff.

Speaker 11 (26:37):
For sure.

Speaker 1 (26:38):
I don't need access to this.

Speaker 2 (26:39):
You don't do you have access to your health records?
Like if you're like a my chart, you have.

Speaker 10 (26:43):
That right, I mean, yeah, I can go and look
at my I don't know what it means. You gotta
pull there you go, So take what you got. This
is not medical advice. This is Paulina Row advice. Take
you know, take your results and put them in chedgy PC.
It's very interesting because like you and I have talked
about this spread, Like we both have high cholesterol, and
I put that into my result into tagy bet and
they'll they'll give me like a diet to follow.

Speaker 2 (27:03):
Maybe take the supplement. It's been really helpful.

Speaker 1 (27:05):
I don't need you. I have high cholesterol because I
ate a box of insomnia cookies.

Speaker 2 (27:09):
Okay, so close the mouth to zip the lips.

Speaker 1 (27:11):
Okay, why can't zip the lips? I gotta get pad,
I get paid.

Speaker 2 (27:15):
You gotta talk.

Speaker 10 (27:15):
Baby, close the mount, yes, play the mouth, put the
cookies down.

Speaker 2 (27:19):
But like also I'm telling you, like it does help
you when you have questions on the spot.

Speaker 3 (27:24):
Well, I can't call my Dadad like, but Google sucks
diet for high cholesterol, Like I could have.

Speaker 1 (27:29):
Done that pre Now, So what's the chicken breast and
the carrots were for?

Speaker 2 (27:32):
Chad talks to me. Nice.

Speaker 7 (27:34):
No, I'm not saying it's not.

Speaker 1 (27:35):
A useful tool. I'm saying, like everything else, I think
it probably is leading to you know, we don't have enough,
We don't know enough as non doctors and non health
professionals to know if what we're looking at makes any sense.
So we get worked up, and typically it seems Google
at least seems to take you to the worst case scenario,
and then you go to the doctor and you're all,
you know, fired up, and then they talk you down.
At least that's how it goes with me. There's also
new alcohol guidance. I mean, some people might like this,

(27:58):
according to the new US dietary guide lines. The Trump
administration released a new federal dietary guideline yesterday, and they
say that they made a change in the alcohol The
guidelines now simply tell Americans to limit them instead of
giving specific drink limits. Previous guidelines said that men should
have no more than two drinks a day and women
no more than one and by the way, doctor Oz

(28:20):
is the one leading this this information. I just you
know ten years ago it runs Medicare and medicas.

Speaker 11 (28:26):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (28:26):
I talked to him like two weeks ago, you did,
I did.

Speaker 10 (28:29):
Yeah, he was on my iHeartRadio community affairs show, Doctor I.

Speaker 1 (28:33):
Did he tell you to drink up?

Speaker 2 (28:35):
No, he's actually no, he actually told me. Did he
say recently we talked about the way he lost strugs too.

Speaker 1 (28:39):
Yeah. Yeah, he's smart.

Speaker 2 (28:41):
No, he's smart, right, right, So I was like, you
know what, let's keep it at this, let's keep it
in a book, like.

Speaker 1 (28:51):
Right, let's just keep this right word. Yeah, he's got
lots of.

Speaker 2 (28:57):
I talked to doctor Oz the other day.

Speaker 1 (29:00):
I know that was not a sentence that it was
on my bingo part for today. It wasn't another sort
of well, very serious story. But Nick Reiner, remember this
from a couple of weeks ago, of course, allegedly killed
his parents. He was not arraigned as expected yesterday. Instead,
the high profile defense attorney Alan Jackson my boy, yes,
the Karen Reid guy, withdrew from the murder case. With

(29:24):
the court approving the switch to a public defender. The
judge set a new arraignment date for February, and he said, yeah,
I agree with that. That's what he said in court.
The New York Times reports that these significant departure macing
jests at the Reiner family, Nick has two siblings, have
distanced itself from mister Reiner and his legal case, at
least financially, because you know, Ali Jackson is not cheap. No,

(29:45):
and also interesting. A friend of mine who's attorney, pointed
this out. He did Karen Reid's second trial for free,
so he might he really believed in her and that
she was innocent, and of course, good things I'm coming
for him from that. I'm going to say he had
no problem walking away from this when an allegedly speculation
is that he's not getting paid. So he did say

(30:06):
on the way out, this guy's not guilty. He did
say that. But part of me wonders, like, if he
really truly believed in this guy's innocence so that he
could get him off and that this would have thrust
him into the spotlight yet again and justice would be served.
If he believed that, then why is he walking I
trust Alan with my life, Yeah, I mean, I would
hire him if I could afford him.

Speaker 2 (30:25):
Yeah, but usually that means like you're in a sticky spot, right.

Speaker 5 (30:28):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (30:29):
I don't really want to have to hire a criminal
defense attorney and prefer not to, you know, but if
it ever happens, I hope you'll call Alan for me.
He'll come bail me out. And finally a nice story.
Police in north Haven, Connecticut got a handwritten apology in
the mail from a young girl who accidentally dialed nine
to one one thinking that the phone that she was
using was a toy. The note, from a child named Lily,

(30:50):
said sorry for calling nine one one, I thhot I
thought it was a playphone, and promised she wouldn't do
it again. The North Haven Police Department shared her sincere
letter on social media, reassuring her that things happen and
turning the moment into a lighthearted message about responsible phone use.
The post has sins, drawn smiles, and plenty of comments
and parents who've heard similar stories. That's very nice, that's nice,

(31:11):
well rounded. Today we went serious, we win, We went
went back and forth. I really pulled on your heartstrings
and your emotions today to mess. It's National Career Coach Day,
National Bubble Bath Day, and National Joy Germ day reminds
people that by being positive as I am in twenty
twenty six, yes, and treating people with kindness, you can
influence those around them and pass that positive attitude onto others,

(31:33):
which is why positivity in twenty twenty six from your
boy right here scares me a little. Is a four
day d it's working.

Speaker 2 (31:42):
Okay, you're smiling really hard. I'm scared.

Speaker 1 (31:46):
That's the caffeine. Can One's entertainment report. He's on the
Fresh show. He did.

Speaker 3 (31:51):
Rivalry star Hudson Williams says a number of current professional
athletes across several major sports have reached out to him
to share their stories about being closeted throughout their careers.
The twenty four year old actors shared the revelation while
talking to Andy Cohen about the show. I think that
interview drops today and the show if you have not
heard about it, if you are not chronically online. It

(32:14):
follows two secretly gay and by professional hockey players as
they navigate a romance throughout their careers. There's subplots of
other similar storylines as well, and Hudson said that he
and the author of the books that the show is
based on have heard from hockey players, football players, and
basketball players through both emails or dms on Instagram.

Speaker 2 (32:35):
So the show is, you know, I.

Speaker 3 (32:37):
Think, making people feel seen and comfortable reaching out, which
is probably very special for him to be a part
of that. T Paine just made his mama cry tears
of joy after surprising her with a new private jet
reported forty million.

Speaker 2 (32:51):
I thought you said, ci oh.

Speaker 1 (32:53):
I thought we had a whole conversation about Ti. Yeah,
that's yeah. And that's why I was like, how does
TI have much money?

Speaker 2 (33:00):
Yeah, I said to Paint.

Speaker 1 (33:02):
The whole conversation was about and I'm like, big things popping, right,
he's got money like that he does.

Speaker 2 (33:08):
But that's yeah, that makes more sense.

Speaker 1 (33:11):
But I would say, I also see I see this stuff.
I see T Pain flying around in pj's and stuff,
and I was buying pj's and I go, wow, I
didn't know he had dough like that either.

Speaker 8 (33:19):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (33:20):
No, I don't feel the same way about TI that
I feel about T Pain.

Speaker 1 (33:23):
So I'm so sorry.

Speaker 2 (33:26):
Okay, wow, I have to Okay, my bad.

Speaker 3 (33:29):
I thought I said T Pain but Pain, right, I
was thinking I'm sprung like you guys don't like that.
He actually promised her to buy her a PJ as
a teenager, and he said, like, one day, I'm gonna
buy you this jet when I become successful, and so
he fulfilled that promise.

Speaker 2 (33:45):
He's already bought her a house.

Speaker 3 (33:46):
Businesses made sure she lives like a queen, which I
think we all wish we could do for our parents
or the people that raised us. Peacock is rolling out
a new audio feature for sports fans that could change
how people watch live games. The streaming service is integrating
advanced Dolby sound technology that will let viewers customize their
audio experience, including the ability to mute play by play

(34:07):
announcers or adjust crowd, noise and commentary levels during broadcasts.
This means if you'd rather hear the crowd or the
pure sounds of the action without commentary, you'd be able.

Speaker 2 (34:17):
To do that, which would be interesting.

Speaker 3 (34:19):
They say that these enhancements are designed to make live
sports feel more immersive and give fans more control over
how they enjoy NFL, NBA, and other games.

Speaker 2 (34:28):
Jason, how do you like to watch your games?

Speaker 1 (34:30):
I like I usually turned down the announcer because it's
usually that one guy that annoys me with the southern
as yeah, you don't have to watch ESPN eight. I
don't know, that's like an alternate broadcast. People listen to
the main I know you have seventeen TVs in your
house and you're always streaming sports, but like you don't

(34:51):
have to watch every one of them. Yeah, you know
that like pool party outside in Vegas where they have
all the screens. That's my action room that actually is
modeled after your back yet exactly, bottle girls and everything.

Speaker 2 (35:02):
Do you also charge one hundred and thirty dollars for
two drinks? That's what I paid. Yeah, normally I will
deliver it to you.

Speaker 3 (35:09):

Speaker 2 (35:30):
I'm so sorry.

Speaker 1 (35:31):
Maybe a t I one too, but he got enough
love on necessarily, Like I just I didn't know he
had that.

Speaker 2 (35:38):
I was like, what the hell?

Speaker 1 (35:40):
Big things popping for me? If that came on, I'm
not mad about it. Yeah, I don't know, because big
things popping, bring them out, bring them out. Yeah that's
all right. But anyway, I want to make sure I
contribute to the Private Jet Fund because if I could
buy my mama PG, I would. Yeah. Instead, I think
I got her like a mug off Amazon or something. No,
you did not nice. Nice mug keeps things cold or hot.

Speaker 5 (36:02):
So that was cool.

Speaker 1 (36:03):
We'll do blogs or audio journals. Next, Waiting by the Phone,
Why did somebody get ghosted? We'll investigate yesterday's new Waiting

This dude was so flippant, and he was just so
like arrogant about the fact that he was cheating on
his wife, and it was like it was no big deal.
And then when everyone thought, well, maybe it's an open relation,

(36:24):
people in the comments going, maybe it's an open relationship.
You didn't listen to the whole thing yet, did you,
And then they go back and go nope, never mind,
because then he later goes, no, it's not saying her
name on the air people now trying to find her,
and there were sleuths on the internet trying to find
who this woman is. We probably need to find who
she is and give her a heads up about the
whole thing. But if you miss it, that's on the

have that either, And I'm very offunded. I'm very upset
because my mom she's I guess she's the girl right
Currie high School shoutout, I went to high school there,
like that, that's our that's our territory administration or admin.

Speaker 2 (41:50):
Yeah. So she's in the office, correct yet and one
of the offices. And you know, she's that girl.

Speaker 10 (41:54):
And I know that she's like mentoring so many people
that I've walked, you know, just through that building, whether
they were students or they've there part time, full time,
and people love her. And I love to see that.
And you know, my mom's the best, Like she is
just the best. But now I'm getting a little offended.
We're crossing the line here because if it's getting a
little more serious than just being like, oh, you know
I love Marta right or I love you know all

(42:16):
she's done for me this and that, it's like that's
my work mom. And then she goes, yeah, that's my
work daughter. I'm like, ma, you got two daughters. Like
this is like we're in a fight, Like this is crazy.
Meet me at the train station, like this is crazy,
and she's like no, like they're my daughters, like I
love them, and she's got sons too, apparently. I mean,
I'm not a boy, so whatever work sons, but work daughters.
Personally offended, Yes, I am threatened. I feel like, you

(42:39):
know that is that is my my mommy.

Speaker 2 (42:42):
Yeah, my mommy. It's my mommy. And you cannot the line.

Speaker 1 (42:45):
More than likely prioritize your needs over there is maybe.

Speaker 10 (42:48):
I mean it's okay, she doesn't like I'm grown best
of the day. I'm sure she's tired of me too.
But I truly believe that like this has to happen
in offices because when you're other like kind of you know,
places of work, because you think about it, you've got like,
you know, making this up miss Cheryl, who's like whatever,
fifty five years old, and then you've got like, you know,
Jessica who's twenty two.

Speaker 2 (43:07):
It's hysterical. Work friend groups are so funny.

Speaker 3 (43:10):
Like I worked at a job where like this woman
was way older than me and like she was spilling
her like affair secrets to me.

Speaker 2 (43:16):
She was having an affair and like, well, like I
would have never had like this. I was like this
little girl, like what is going on, you know, but
it's funny.

Speaker 1 (43:24):
Well so, so your mom is showing motherly qualities and
attributes to other young women and you feel as though
you're encroaching on your territory.

Speaker 2 (43:36):
I thought it was one, but there's there have been many,
and there's more to call. I'm sure.

Speaker 1 (43:40):
I think it's very sweet.

Speaker 2 (43:41):
Actually it is the sweetest thing in the world.

Speaker 1 (43:42):
So you know who she is and how what she
means to people.

Speaker 10 (43:45):
And yes, yeah, yeah, we're going through some stuff right
now with my mom, and I get a lot of messages.

Speaker 2 (43:49):
Your mom means the world to me.

Speaker 10 (43:51):
I love her so much. And I'm like, and they're
my age or younger. They're actually younger, And I'm like
that that is so cool.

Speaker 1 (43:57):
That back the hell up.

Speaker 2 (43:59):
Yeah, per certificate and I'm like, that's my mommy.

Speaker 1 (44:02):
That's a weird that's a weird thing to responded combatively
to people who you know are cheering her on.

Speaker 7 (44:06):
But yeah, yeah, exactly.

Speaker 1 (44:07):
The middle finger emoji is a little aggressive. But ever
been left waiting by the phone, it's the Fred Shell. Hey, Steve,
good morning, welcome to the program. How are you pretty good?
How about you doing? Great? Man? What's going on? With Michelle.
So I have hit your note here. It says that
you met on Hinge and that you you planned a date,

(44:28):
but sort of explain, you know, how that all went,
about the date and then where things are now. Yeah, sure,
like we.

Speaker 5 (44:34):
I didn't waste much time setting it up because I
mean we just we just hit it off immediately.

Speaker 1 (44:39):
So like you said, we agreed to.

Speaker 5 (44:42):
Go on a date. We went for drinks after work
on Friday, and I thought we did. I thought we
hear it off immediately. So a couple of drinks you
know that's earned in the pizza and more drinks.

Speaker 9 (44:55):
And.

Speaker 1 (44:57):
Man like the conversation just slowed.

Speaker 5 (44:59):
Like I mean, she was beautiful and we started flirting,
and before I knew that we were back at my
place and things were happening.

Speaker 1 (45:10):
Yeah, like it was awesome.

Speaker 7 (45:13):
And so she left after that and I.

Speaker 5 (45:16):
Had never heard from her again. I was just like,
what the Like, how gonna date go so well? And
then nothing? Just ghost it?

Speaker 1 (45:23):
So I mean it went really well. You're saying like
you went if you drinks, pizza, drinks and then you know,
oh yeah.

Speaker 5 (45:29):
For sure, like like home bab, checkmate, everything you can
take of it was great.

Speaker 1 (45:35):
Oh well, when you say checkmate, then okay, wow, that's
a great first date though. I mean, that's what you want,
right You want to meet someone, you want to have
that chemistry and then you know, not only the sort
of communication, but then the physical chemistry too. And so
this all went exactly as you would wanted to. And
you're thinking, I'm gonna hear from this woman again, so
you reached out and tried to plan another date, except

(45:57):
you haven't heard from her since then. No response to anything,
I assume.

Speaker 5 (46:00):
Yeah, like I tried, you know, all in a couple
of tests, and then I just figured i'd believe it
that but nothing like, no response either way. Huh.

Speaker 1 (46:10):
All right, well, let's let's play a song. Come back
in a couple of minutes. We'll call Michelle. We'll see
if we can get her on the phone. We're gonna
ask these questions on your behalf, and the hope is
always is that we can straighten all of this out
and then set you guys up on another date that
we pay for.

Speaker 7 (46:22):
Sound good, Yeah, that's great, thanks.

Speaker 1 (46:25):
Hey Steve, Yeah, all right, let's call him Shew. You
guys meant unhinged, and you got right to work setting
up a date which you went on after work on
a Friday, had some drinks and it was, hey, I'm hungry,
you know I ain't me too? And then why am
I like role playing here? I don't know. So you
had some pizza and then you had some more drinks
and then it was back to your place and greatness

(46:46):
occurred in your opinion at least, and then you haven't
heard from her since, and you're like, how does this
all go so well and get to that point? But
yet she won't call me back. What's going on?

Speaker 5 (46:55):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (46:55):
Exactly? Like it was perfect?

Speaker 5 (46:58):
So I can't understand that.

Speaker 1 (47:00):
Okay, let's uh, let's call Michelle and see if we
can figure out what's going on. Good luck? Hello, Hi
is this Michelle Michelle? Good morning. My name's friend. I'm
calling from the Fred Show, the morning radio show, and
I have to tell you that we are on the
radio right now, and I would need your permission to

(47:20):
continue with the calls. And okay, if we chat for
a minute, yeah you show, No, it's not. We're on
the radio whole CRUs here, is it cool? If we chat,
I'll tell you what we're calling about. I just need
your permission first, okay, all right, well thank you. We're
calling on behalf of a guy named Steve, who I
guess you met on Hinge and you you went out
recently and do you remember Steve?

Speaker 8 (47:43):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (47:43):
I do? Okay, Well he called us, uh, Michelle, and
he told us that he had met you on Hinge
and then he that you guys chatted and planned a
date and that you went out and he, in short
thought the date went really really well, except he says
he hasn't heard from you since then. He's called these texts,
all these things. So what's going on? Why why are
you not responding to him?

Speaker 2 (48:04):
This is so weird.

Speaker 11 (48:05):
Yeah, he's a he's a nice, interesting dude. I did
have a good time with him, uh. I actually we
went back to his place and started making out and
it was actually really fun. But I I saw this
thing on his lower back and I was like, what
is that? Uh?

Speaker 2 (48:27):
And then got his lower back?

Speaker 1 (48:30):
Is that? Well?

Speaker 2 (48:32):
I didn't know what it was because I was like, oh,
is that a birthmark?

Speaker 9 (48:35):
No?

Speaker 7 (48:36):
What is that?

Speaker 11 (48:37):
And then all of a sudden I was like, oh no,
that's a tattoo? Is a lower back tattoo?

Speaker 2 (48:43):
Okay? Which you know whatever? To each his own.

Speaker 11 (48:47):
But then it's it's a Jordan jump man tattoo. Yeah,
and it looked like he coming out to the ass.

Speaker 7 (49:00):
There.

Speaker 1 (49:01):
Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, Steve, Steve.
That's Steve, by the way, Michelle, Steve. Yeah, I'm very forgetful.
I forgot that Steve this year. Now, hold on, Steve.
I need to hear more about the jump man here.
So we'll get to you. We'll get to you, old
boy Jordan over here. But so wait a minute. So
it's placed like right above his crack. So what it
looks like?

Speaker 2 (49:20):
Oh yeah, I mean it's leaping out of his eyes.

Speaker 5 (49:27):
Man.

Speaker 1 (49:29):
Yeah, okay, so this is the guy likes Michael. He's
a Jordan guy. Obviously, I'm a Jordan guy. I don't
have a lower back tattoo of anything. But I mean,
so the guy's a Michael Jordan's fan. Uh, I mean yeah,
I get it, like come on, a lower back tattoo.

Speaker 11 (49:44):
Also, to be very clear, I laughed when I first
saw it, and I thought, okay, maybe it was like
a dare or something. And then I was like, oh
is this like he didn't read it's like a frat bro.
But I was like, oh, was it like hazing or something,
and then he said, no, I got it a couple
of years ago.

Speaker 1 (50:01):
We are in our three Okay, so this wasn't like
a drunk uh you know, most decision. This was a
close thought that occurred relatively recently. So Steve is here.

Speaker 5 (50:11):
You know that?

Speaker 1 (50:11):
Now, Steve, can you explain the jumpman on your ass
or I guess above you? Yeah, we're back tattoo of
a Jordan jumpman logo?

Speaker 5 (50:20):
Yeah?

Speaker 11 (50:20):
Yeah.

Speaker 7 (50:21):
Michelle likes there's there's so good stories to this, like,
for look, I was, yeah, I was a big Jordan.

Speaker 5 (50:27):
Fan growing up, right, but I used to watch the
games with my grandfather, and I just wanted a way
to honor both. So like, I mean, I don't think
that's such a big deal.

Speaker 11 (50:41):
That you're gonna make you look like an ale. No,
I'm honoring your grandfather by putting a tattoo by your l.

Speaker 1 (50:50):
He was a fun guy. We would joke around and
stuff like, so.

Speaker 2 (50:54):
I mean my grandpa, but my whole one.

Speaker 1 (50:56):
For the record, it's not near that. It's not near.
I mean it's a but you it sounds like it's
close enough because I know what too close?

Speaker 7 (51:07):
Okay, like yourself. Seriously, you're going to refuse to see
me because of that.

Speaker 5 (51:12):
I mean, that's just like something harmless. It's it's it's
funny and like like I said, it's for it's for
honoring both my grandpa and uh, you know the games.
I mean, like this is the first. This is a first,
a lower back tattoo to honor my grandfather.

Speaker 2 (51:27):
I don't know if either of them want that, Michael
or your grandpa.

Speaker 1 (51:32):
Actually, I mean Michael Jordan just texted me and he said, no,
that's all you put was exactly.

Speaker 2 (51:39):
It's just not okay, what do you have a tattoo?
By your says?

Speaker 7 (51:43):
Just do it?

Speaker 1 (51:43):
Like come on, that's kind of.

Speaker 2 (51:48):
Bed at that.

Speaker 1 (51:49):
Hold on a second, do you.

Speaker 7 (51:52):
I don't, but yeah, yeah, I guess maybe I should.

Speaker 9 (51:57):
But like Michelle, come on, you're being white too picky,
Like I mean, Ricky, come on, but that was done
in your thirties, Like these are decisions that you know
he may want to like just well, who's want to
see it?

Speaker 5 (52:13):
I mean you're going to see that my work desk
or something like when I go to work, I'm not
going to have my lower back hang you out?

Speaker 1 (52:20):
Well, when you go to the gym.

Speaker 11 (52:21):
If you bend over, I don't know, like people are
going to see a tiny little basketball hand coming outr crass.

Speaker 1 (52:30):
I think that the lower back tats you on a
man is a questionable decision anyway. Yeah, but then just
say it was sentimental on top of that, and then
the location, like ha ha, he's jumping over my crack.
But also, you know, shout out to my grandfather.

Speaker 5 (52:48):
Hey, yeah, it's twenty twenty five. People do whatever they want.
I had some fun with that, so I think Grandpa
would just be laughing his ass off, honestly.

Speaker 1 (53:00):
So yeah, okay, so so all right, the guy's got
a Jumpman logo over his crack, and so be it. Now, Look,
you liked him enough. You know, you had enough chemistry, Michelle.
Everything went well enough to get to the point where
you guys were having it, you know, some intimate fun.
So there obviously it was all fine until you saw this.

(53:21):
Would you consider letting this go and just accepting that,
you know whatever, You wouldn't do it, but you liked
him enough, and maybe we give him another shot, we
go on a second date. We'll pay for it.

Speaker 11 (53:32):
I mean, listen that he has a back tattoo and
then he called a radio station like his decision making isn't.

Speaker 1 (53:40):
Great, right, it was a very sound just's a decision.

Speaker 5 (53:48):
Fine, that's fine.

Speaker 7 (53:50):
See, like I said, you're just too ticky, like I mean,
obviously you have no sense of.

Speaker 1 (53:54):
Humor and uh, I mean come on now, yeah, I mean,
I'm sure going to the pool is an adventure. But okay, look,
so painted for conversations starter. Well, in some ender, well
you're right, and then in this case yeah all right,
well Michelle, thank you for picking up, and good luck

(54:16):
to you. Steve. I wish you the best as well
out there. Good luck.

Speaker 5 (54:20):
Yeah, I'll try to date somebody else with the backpack
to today.

Speaker 1 (54:24):
Cawin's Entertainer Report. He's on the pressure.

length solo record since twenty sixteen's album And I don't know,
I mean hopefully he brings the fire. He of course,

Lady Gaga apt how can we forget? We heard that

(55:14):
one a lot? But he is going on tour. Now,
will your mom ask you for a meet and Greek?

Speaker 2 (55:18):
Because I know she does sometimes, Yes, she will, Okay, Jason,
get to work on that.

Speaker 1 (55:23):
Yeah, Jason, okay, because they get like anything else in
my life that I want, whether it's concert tickets, whether
it's a meet and greet, restaurant reserve, anything, anything I need,
any contact I need. It's like, just go right to
Jason Mom. Just ask Jason yourself. You don't need me
to be the the the middleman on this. She can
go with my mom. They can go together that way,

(55:43):
you know, they can have a good time. Well, she
thinks like he's just like, what was it the other day?
It was like I want to meet so and so
I'm like, oh, well me too. I don't she thinks
like in is call him or something like sure, yeah,
I'll just call you know, Taylor Swift for you. Hey, Taylor,
my mom wants to meet you. Okay, sure, I'll fly right,
Like no one cares about me? What do you get mean?
Called Jason?

Speaker 2 (56:03):
Why haven't we thought of that? Just call Taylor.

Speaker 3 (56:05):
Y Hill's reality star Spencer Pratt is running for the
mayor of la.

Speaker 2 (56:12):
He of course, has been really vocal.

Speaker 3 (56:14):
He lost his Pacific Palisades home last year in the
massive wildfire. We just hit the one year anniversary, and
you know this whole feud he's had with California Governor
Gavin Newsom over the state's response to it, so he's
sick of it. After Gavin's office scent no text messages
about the fire from early January twenty twenty five, he

(56:35):
blasted him, saying, or questioning rather whether the governor really
has no records about the crisis that destroyed his home,
devastated the community. And he's been super into this whole
thing and trying to make a difference. So I guess
he's running for mayor, which is not what I had
on my BINGO card, But there you go. Brandon Flowers
frontman of The Killers, says that fans will have something

(56:58):
to look forward to. He's been working out not one,
but two solo albums that should arrive in twenty twenty six,
so sometimes this year. Both completed in Nashville, reflecting different
creative directions, and one nearly mixed and another close close
behind excuse me.

Speaker 2 (57:14):
He says.

Speaker 3 (57:14):
The process has been fun, but a departure from the
kind of music solo tour maybe, But I just you
have the bigot. Remember there's a song The Killers song
was voted the song of our generation.

Speaker 2 (57:26):
I think millennials like, how do you ever? Yeah, how
do you ever? I know a lot of people argued
about we did that story and kind of what viral?
But how do you follow that?

Speaker 1 (57:37):
Yeah, that'd be tough.

Speaker 2 (57:39):
Like are you ever going to make another mister bright Side?

Speaker 9 (57:43):
No?

Speaker 2 (57:43):
Okay, So Brandon just like, they can't be that good again.
I think that one time somebody told me, I.

Speaker 13 (57:50):
Mean, there's good, but that song is like I kind
of like that, right, it all it gets the people
go it all right, Brandon, just pack it up, don't
even release them. I don't think you're gonna be able
to do it again. But he's working on new I'm.

Speaker 1 (58:00):
Trying to think that. Sometimes when we have interviews with
people like that, I'll ask that question. I'm trying to
think the last time I asked it. But it's like,
because it makes you mad that you've come out with
four albums since then, but everybody just wants here mister
Bright's side. And usually the answer is no, I'm grateful
for it, it got me here or whatever, but I'd
be pissed, Well what about a lot of times it's
it's stuff that isn't the big hit that they're the

(58:20):
most proud of.

Speaker 10 (58:22):
You know.

Speaker 1 (58:22):
It's like, usually these these artists will come out with
a big hit like that, they'll have a couple of
big hits on an album, and then that gives them
the license to go down do the creative stuff they
want to do, and then they're like, this is what
I'm really excited about. And then then it was like
no play. I guess yeah.

Speaker 2 (58:38):
There's nothing worse than when I'm at a concert and
they're like, can I play.

Speaker 1 (58:40):
Something new for you? It's like, no, I don't know
that one right, don't do that? Remember the last person
I asked that question too? But the answer is typically, ah,
you know, it's fine. I'm grateful for it to whatever.

Speaker 2 (58:54):
I like when they're honest.

Speaker 1 (58:55):
Yeah, but it's the same time, yeah exactly. It's like
I gave you the hits, but now you know, now
I get to to make this acoustic, like unplugged album
that I really wanted to make because now I'm rich
because see everybody you know now I'm on the on
the our band is well known because of this, So
now let me give you this. And everyone's like, ah,
now back to the commercial stuff. Man, we like that
one better.

Speaker 2 (59:15):
Like Carly reach Jumpson's not making a better song than
call Me Maybe.

Speaker 14 (59:18):
She's just not.

Speaker 1 (59:19):
And it turns out she didn't.

Speaker 2 (59:21):
Well she still could, but she can't.

Speaker 1 (59:23):
She was a real one. Famous story around here is
that she played a show for US many years ago
and she was going to play three songs and there
was going to be two songs we've never heard before
and call Me Maybe. And I joke with her and
I was like, Carly, you should play call Me Maybe
twice and she's like really, I'm like, people would go nuts.
She opened with it, played something in the middle, and
then closed with it and people went nuts. And I

(59:45):
loved her for it.

Speaker 2 (59:46):
Mart I loved her for it because she's Canadian.

Speaker 5 (59:49):
Here.

Speaker 3 (59:49):
Yeah, yeah, if you want to see Keiky's adorable tea,
she actually makes the t shirts. You can type fred
Show Radio on YouTube and it's for a really good cause.
So Kiki t's these angels. It says, hey, friend, very cute.

Speaker 2 (01:00:02):
Go on YouTube.

Speaker 1 (01:00:02):
Do you have what it takes to battle show Biz
Shelley in the show Biz Showdown? Like the last couple
of weeks, when I wasn't yelling show bitch Shelley at
the top of my lungs to start your day?

Speaker 2 (01:00:16):
Like, is that?

Speaker 1 (01:00:16):
Is it hard for you to get going?

Speaker 2 (01:00:18):
Very extremely hard? It's like, oh, I just have to
like drag myself out of bed.

Speaker 5 (01:00:23):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:00:23):
I noticed a few days I got a call from
you around this time I was asleep that I was
on vacation. But is that what has what you needed
with me?

Speaker 3 (01:00:31):
And then what it really helps is when you do
the gorilla so that really gets my day started.

Speaker 1 (01:00:36):
Sometimes I just randomly call show bis Shelley and she
picked up and I go go, really, oh you scream
at her? I think, give you so much, and then
we move on right, and it gives her the extra
boos she needs to get through her day. Hey, Katie, Oh,
I should probably turn Katie's Katy, I should probably I
got an on and and off button. I should probably
push the on one. Hi Katie, how you doing.

Speaker 7 (01:00:58):
Good?

Speaker 1 (01:00:59):
How are you very well? Welcome to the show. A
fun fact about you is what.

Speaker 2 (01:01:05):
I'm a great school teacher. Oh my, bless you.

Speaker 1 (01:01:08):
Yeah, that's amazing. Thank you for listening. Eight hundred and
fifty bucks could be yours. We are minutes away from
you potentially having that if you can beat show bis
Shelley in five questions, she knows all but occasionally, well,
only seventy six times all the time, but sometimes she loses.
Ten game win streak one ninety seven wins. Maybe today's
your day? Good luck, guys, all right, Katy, good luck?

Speaker 2 (01:01:30):
Thank you?

Speaker 1 (01:01:31):
All right to UK. You go, Shelley to the sound
boof poof. She cannot hear the questions Katie. Question number one.
Gwyneth Paltrow said she lost a role over the term
that she and Chris Martin used to describe their split.
What was it?

Speaker 2 (01:01:46):
Three?

Speaker 5 (01:01:47):
Two?

Speaker 1 (01:01:50):

Too, not that one though. Speaking of the Golden Globes,
who is hosting for the second time this year? There
you go? Which reality star? And we just did this story,
by the way, which reality star announced yesterday he's running
for the mayor of La Crap And the actress who

of Heated Rivalry will present at the Golden Globes on
Sunday on which network or streaming service would you find
that show?

Speaker 2 (01:03:18):

off air conversation.

Speaker 2 (01:03:24):
I will say, had some logistical questions.

Speaker 1 (01:03:27):
Maybe in the Tangent are off air uncentered podcast, of
which a new episode is up on the iHeartRadio app
as of yesterday. Maybe on the next Tangent we'll discuss
some of these things because we could all learn.

Speaker 2 (01:03:36):
I think, yeah, I think it's an opportunity to learn.

Speaker 1 (01:03:38):
And if you're new to the show, the Tangent is
on the iHeart app and it is. It is all
the things that we could never say here don't listen
to it and forty five minutes of a therapy session
which it turns into usually for me speaking of the
Golden Globes. Who is hosting the for the second time
this year? Oh Oh, who is you?

tell you. I told you the first week back. It's
like Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, you know, and then on Thursday
a little tired today.

Speaker 2 (01:05:06):
So see, and your trainers should make you do the
treadmill while you do that, you know, that's what all
the big starts to.

Speaker 1 (01:05:14):
Get that mask on that like, you know, limits your
breathing to make your thing. That makes a gas mask
that makes your lung stronger. You never seen that.

Speaker 2 (01:05:21):
Yeah, we're limiting our breathing while we're working out.

Speaker 1 (01:05:24):
Somebody I'm sure can explain it, but you can look
like a mask on and can't breathe. It makes your
lung stronger somehow. Yeah, Guineon brings that in a shock
collar every day. You should see it. It's like what
fastest done? It makes me stronger, makes me mentally stronger. Katie,

tell you, No, I told you that. I said this
on Monday. We were off for a few days and
we come back. The adrenaline is high, you know, Monday boom,
Great to be back. It's still great to be back.

(01:06:18):
It's just the energy level, like the alarm clock going
off now. And because if you get up this early
and then as many of you do, and then for
a couple of weeks you don't, your body then goes
back like if you go to like a normal schedule,
like like we did for a couple of weeks, and
it's like, oh my god, I've never felt healthier. And
then you go back to this thing getting up, you know,
well before the sun rise, and then you don't feel

(01:06:38):
healthy again.

Speaker 2 (01:06:39):
Nope, I'm confused.

Speaker 1 (01:06:40):
Yeah, it's going to take a couple of weeks to
get back to it. That's all right. Here we are,
We're doing it. The throwback throw Down name that tune battle.
It is the first of the year, which means all
the scores go to zero. Calin won the year last year.
Throwbacks could be anything, anything, all the way up to
six and a half years ago. So I'm leaving into
some of the newer quote unquote throwbacks. Oh boys, But

(01:07:04):
then you never know. I might throw something from way
back in there. You just never know. It depends on
my mood. It depends, you know, on so many different things.
Because I get I get in the lab and I
get my vibe and then I come up, I curate
the songs. Sometimes I put it on shuffle. You never know,
but thousands of potential songs. Are you guys ready? And
people get so the energy in here is palpable. People

(01:07:25):
get so nervous. Are you good?

Speaker 10 (01:07:28):
Yes?

Speaker 6 (01:07:28):

charge of record keeping, we made Paulina that person. So
that's good.

Yeah, I don't know how that happened. You are the
what do they call it, the the archivest jack of
all trade? For you are that you are that sometimes
the Swiss Army Knife of radio is Paulina. However, you

my favorite, which many people may not know exists. But

the US Constitution, We keep ours.

Speaker 5 (01:09:55):

Yeah, right right, because we as we go through it
occasionally quarterly or whatever, we go through it and we
have a you know, we have our meetings with our
gavels and and things like that. Then I we realize
some of them are a little outdated and antiquated, but
some are timeless summer timeless time. And so maybe sometime

make sure it's you know, it's relevant. We call now

Speaker 1 (01:10:39):
Ahead, do you do one story for it? The best
story you got?

Speaker 3 (01:10:41):
Okay, I will do all right, Let's do a little
messy Andy Cohen's story.

Speaker 2 (01:10:45):
He is starting off twenty twenty six by throwing a
little shade.

Speaker 3 (01:10:47):
I don't know if my Bravo girls Paulina and Kiki
saw this, but he called He called what's Bethany Frankel?
That Margarita Lady and called her TikTok's suffocating, which is hysterical.

Speaker 2 (01:11:00):
There is an episode of of Course Andy Cohen Live.
It just came out.

Speaker 3 (01:11:04):
He was talking to Jonah Hill, I guess, and they
were talking about all the social media chatter about their
New Year's Eve special that he hosts with Anderson Cooper,
which is always They're always drunk, it's always funny. Dipplo's
always there on something, and Andy said he went on
TikTok to see what the kids were saying the review,
and that's when he saw that Margarita Lady. He goes boy,
Oh my gosh, it's suffocating.

Speaker 2 (01:11:25):
I couldn't. Of course, they have had a.

Speaker 3 (01:11:27):
Beef for a while, but he is clearly not a fan,
and he's talking about blocking her and he's not cool
with her anymore.

Speaker 2 (01:11:34):
So the moms are fighting, and so are Andy and bethaning.

Speaker 3 (01:11:39):
But that Margarita lady, skinny girl, you remember that for
I know you don't watch size.

Speaker 1 (01:11:43):
But well, yeah, I remember skinny girl. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:11:46):
Yeah, she made a lot of money off that skinny girl.

Speaker 1 (01:11:48):
Mark. I need to be drinking those well and be
a skinny girl.

Speaker 3 (01:11:50):
All right, let's go get one if you want to
catch up on anything you missed The Fred Showandman on
the Free iHeart Radio.

Speaker 1 (01:11:55):
I'm ashamed of myself, by the way. The sample was
it's this It Come Back to Me, which is which
is an amazing song. Very upset. It's gonna ruin my
day now that I didn't get that a nickname was,

(01:12:23):
I mean, we're gonna say it off the air. If
that's the nickname you got for somebody you might want
to keep that. That's not something we I'm gonna get
sing about it. Your nickname was dry Dry.

Speaker 2 (01:12:35):
You know, we gotta go bread.

Speaker 1 (01:12:49):
So much I mean, this is halfway sad and halfway
kind of sweet if you think about it. Actually, but
I didn't know this. Allama can actually die of loneliness
if it's separated from its herd. They require social contact,
and it's a biological need.

Speaker 2 (01:13:06):
That's like me with you guys.

Speaker 1 (01:13:09):
I said, no, I said, it is very sweet. It's
not you, I know, because I need you guys, and
I need my family, but that's it. I need nobody else.
I go home by myself and I'm fine. I would
I thrive. I'm a lama that would thrive, right, I'm
a lama that would be like yo, y'all, just you
go out of head. I'll be there later. I'll catch
you later.

Speaker 11 (01:13:29):
You know.

Speaker 1 (01:13:29):
I would live be the rare scientific anomaly as a lama.
But I don't know. I read that and I was like,
it's sad, you know, because if they get separated, they would,
but it's all I think it's very sweet that they
need each other. Yes, yeah, well there are some other
ones like that too.

Speaker 3 (01:13:43):
Cows have best friends, they can have best friends and
they get like stressed when they're separated.

Speaker 1 (01:13:47):
Yeah, but a lama requires social contact. It's a biological
need waiting by the phone. Is I got more press
shown next,
