The other big story that's.
Speaker 3 (05:30):
Going on this morning, we weren't sure if Jelly Roll
really did shave off his entire beard because initially Bunny
XO put a video up and she narrated it, but
she didn't show what was doing behind the camera. Right Well, yesterday,
Jelly Roll, you'll have to it's a whole emotional announcement
(05:52):
that he makes. But you will see him reveal everything
on his Instagram. Yeah, if you want to see see
what he looks like, completely shaven, and he talks about
how he thought his chin was going to be longer
because he hasn't seen it for so long. It's been
ten years. But that's wild. Jelly Roll is comp I mean, like,
(06:13):
I don't think he's losing his tats either, Bethany. They
looked still as dark to me. You think so, Yeah,
I couldn't tell any difference with the tattoos. You thought
maybe he was lightning. He looked light Yeah, I don't know,
but he definitely did shave, just so you know you
might you would.
Speaker 1 (06:26):
I don't think you're gonna recognize jelly Roll. Yeah he
looks different, Yeah he does.
Speaker 3 (06:29):
That's your music City minute ninety three point one w POC.
Speaker 2 (06:34):

ninety five is backed up.
Speaker 1 (06:39):
We're slow.
Speaker 3 (06:50):
Corey Kent that's his name here at ninety three point
one w POC.
Speaker 1 (06:54):
Good morning, Michael, j and Bethany.
Speaker 3 (06:57):
Now you know, for centuries, for a millennium, we have
had men and women, Guys trying to meet women never
knowing how to do it. I'm sure even back in
the cave man days, they didn't know that you grunt, did.
Speaker 1 (07:13):
You know what I mean? I bet you got.
Speaker 3 (07:17):
Male species have always been perplexed and nerved and what
do you say to a woman to be able to
speak with her?
Speaker 1 (07:25):
So here's what's happening. This is such a funny story, Bethany.
Speaker 2 (07:28):
We need your opinion on this, specifically, ladies, because I
want to know.
Speaker 3 (07:34):
Yeah, we don't really the guys. Guys just listen for
this for them for one minute.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
I know that's a foreign concept no for some of you,
but we need to.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
Be just listen. Okay.
Speaker 2 (07:44):
So Bill Ackman is a billionaire, but he wasn't always
a billionaire, right, And he has decided to tweet out
some tips basically for young men to meet women. Right.
He says, all you have to do is just walk
up to a woman and politely say may I meet you?
Speaker 1 (08:07):
Now, this this has sparked.
Speaker 2 (08:10):
Outrage on the internet because people are like, oh, that's creepy,
that's terrible. Also, you're a billionaire. How about you just
walk up to people and say Hi, I'm a billionaire,
but he says no, no, no. I used to do
this when I didn't have any money.
Speaker 1 (08:25):
I used to do you would just say, may I
meet you? Why may I meet you?
Speaker 2 (08:28):
And I am personally perplexed by this because I'm not
sure I would hate that, or would I absolutely hate that.
I don't know the answer, because I just don't feel
like people do that, So it might it can.
Speaker 1 (08:42):
Either come across as super creepy or it can come
across is kind of hot. I know, I don't know
the answer. It depends on what the guy looks like.
Speaker 3 (08:51):
I think that the woman's going to react differently if
it's a guy she's attracted to versus the guy that
she's not.
Speaker 1 (08:57):
And so this is my question, women, what do we want?
Speaker 5 (09:02):
Truly?
Speaker 1 (09:02):
What do we want?
Speaker 3 (09:03):
That's a good question because as a guy, a lot
of us have no idea.
Speaker 2 (09:07):
And as I perhaps I'm not seeing this all the
way because I don't know what I what I think
of this. I really don't know. And this that's wild
for me because typically I have an opinion. You normally
almost immediate, oh yes you do, And this.
Speaker 1 (09:20):
I'm like, I don't know. Is it okay? If someone
comes up and says may I meet you? I'm like, yeah, well, I.
Speaker 3 (09:26):
Mean they're asking for permissions polite. Uh, it's just creepy.
I think there's some level of creep in it because
it's it's just it's socially awkward.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
If you come up to someone and you're like, you
know what, I just love the opportunity to say hello,
like I would love to meet you, Like that's kind
of nice.
Speaker 5 (09:44):
But if you come up and you're like, oh, may
meet you? No, like get lost. I only have two voices. Yeah,
so what do we want?
Speaker 2 (09:58):
Do we want them to meet us or do we
want them to leave us alone completely?
Speaker 3 (10:03):
Does that put you on a pedestal? Does that make
you feel appreciated? I'm just thinking of all the different
things that are going to go through someone's head.
Speaker 1 (10:12):
May I meet you? What is the line? If it's
not may I meet you? How about Hi? How are
you doing? I think that can be just as creep
Is that creepy? And that's the thing, like, I don't know.
I understand.
Speaker 2 (10:25):
What it's like to be a woman obviously, and like
many many men have just motives that are just not it.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
Really. I'm sorry, I don't think rags me up. But
what if you want to meet someone for you like,
I don't know, I don't know. Hi, may I meet you?
Speaker 2 (10:43):
I mean this this thing has thousands of comments I know,
and I can't.
Speaker 1 (10:47):
Most people think it's it's terrible.
Speaker 3 (10:49):
Well, you know what, there was a time if you
if you go back and watch old movies, you never
hear anybody say this anymore. But people used to walk
up to each other and say, how do you do
Do you remember that?
Speaker 1 (11:01):
Like in old movies? Yeah? Hi, how do you do?
Speaker 6 (11:04):
No?
Speaker 5 (11:04):
What?
Speaker 1 (11:05):
How do you do?
Speaker 2 (11:05):
What?
Speaker 1 (11:08):
No?
Speaker 6 (11:08):
But it's the same sort of thing. I guess it's
just well, and it's okay. Here here comes our first text. Okay,
as a woman, we want honesty. That's honesty, right, Okay,
So I think I think she says.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
On that level. I think you're right. So she wants
she wants May I meet you? Yeah? Because that's honest.
Speaker 3 (11:25):
It depends on how he reacts if you say no,
there's another text coming in.
Speaker 1 (11:31):
So yeah, I don't know. Maybe.
Speaker 3 (11:33):
So basically the question is, ladies, if a guy walks
up to you today, Let's say you're in line at Chipotle,
right again, and a guy walks up to you out
of the blue and says, hi, may I meet you?
Speaker 1 (11:47):
Maybe I didn't free, did I? Maybe?
Speaker 5 (11:49):
No?
Speaker 1 (11:49):
I think that's I think that's a really good scenario,
Like what.
Speaker 3 (11:53):
Are you going to talk to the dude or are
you going to be like, dude, I'm trying to have lunch,
leave me alone.
Speaker 1 (11:58):
I think he can go either. And I don't know. Hey,
may I meet you? Let me try one, Let me
try Hi, may I meet you?
Speaker 2 (12:07):
Mystic says am may I?
Speaker 1 (12:13):
Hey, may I meet you?
Speaker 3 (12:14):
Six?
Speaker 1 (12:15):
Got body, mama? Don't you leave a dish?
Speaker 2 (12:17):
You?
Speaker 4 (12:17):
Here a screen of salmon, brother sweet, and here's a
damn a local conversation.
Speaker 1 (12:21):
You have a barn on a radio, Biggie, I'm sitting
in their head and to the rodeo ninety three point
one poc No. I think. I think. I think I've made.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
Up my mind about how I feel about okay, but
I'm also still not sure. All right, But I think
this could either be the story that you tell your
grandkids about. Well, your grandfather walked up to me and
a Chipotle and he said, may I meet you?
Speaker 1 (12:50):
And I just melted. Yeah, I don't. I think that
could be the story of dreams we.
Speaker 2 (12:55):
We bonded over black beans, right, But I also feel
like somebody said, heck, no, weirdo. I understand that that
might be our first reaction as women, because we are
the little jumpy you.
Speaker 3 (13:10):
Know, Bethany. Here's what we need to do, all right.
We need to get six guys right now? Can we
get six gentlemen to call eight hundred three two one
thirty six ninety three.
Speaker 1 (13:19):
Your line will be Hi, may I meet you? Exactly?
Speaker 3 (13:23):
And then Bethany's gonna decide whether or not you sound
like a creeper.
Speaker 2 (13:27):
And we're doing this because billionaire Bill Ackman tweeted, here,
let me help you out there. Young men, all you
have to do to meet a lady is just walk
up to her and say, may I meet you? And
the Internet lost it on him. They were like, that's
crapy guys, We want you on the phone right now.
Eight hundred three two one thirty six ninety three.

type of meat or meat you're talking about, someone says, well,
how do you even respond to that?
Speaker 1 (15:39):
It's so creepy? Uh?
Speaker 2 (15:41):
And then someone says, I think I would say, Hi,
I'm so and so I would like to meet you
instead of may I meet you?
Speaker 3 (15:46):
Maybe it's the may that people. I don't know what
I think that anybody who's like gen z or. I
just think the younger is going to say, like what.
Speaker 2 (15:58):
Someone said, it depends on the approach and the body language.
I think that's a good point. And then someone else said, hi,
I would prefer that they introduce themselves and ask if
they can treat me to coffee.
Speaker 1 (16:08):
No, No, that's way too forward. Who.

learned so far? Okay, I don't know if we have.
Do we want to meet each other like as a
people like I think we do.
Speaker 2 (16:32):
I think I'm beginning to wonder, you know kind of yeah,
and I agree. Sometimes you don't want to You just
want to keep your head down and get through your
day right, and you don't want to say to someone.
But I also wonder if the are like negative reaction
to this is be like worrisome.
Speaker 1 (16:50):

supposed to just like be friendly with.
