(00:00):
Over 2 million people online aresharing their stories to see if
they're overreacting the victim or if.
We're the victims of some AI slot post.

(00:27):
All righty, welcome back to Reddit Radio with me tired gato.
So today, as you can see, and for all my audio stemmers, you
can't see. But basically if you ever want
to see, you can come over on YouTube.
No hard feelings. If not because life is busy and
sometimes all we have time to dois have a little accessory in

(00:49):
our ear or a little thing on thespeaker or while you drive or
clean. I get it.
But this will involve a lot of screenshots of text messages
because that's kind of like whatthe overreacting thread
community in Reddit is all about.
It kind of turned into a screenshot reading of text
threads. So I will do my best to recreate

(01:12):
these situations. I am not a voice actor.
OK, so this will be the top postof not today.
I do not know why it says for today.
Let's go ahead and give a littlebit like this week.
I'll do one this week. Keep things a little fresh.
OK, and let's go ahead. Let's see.

(01:33):
Let's see. Oh, we got a couple updates we
got. Let's go, let's go on this one.
I didn't even read the title. So am I overreacting for
demanding to be paid after wearing something inappropriate
to babysit a mouthful? Hi, I am 15 and have been

(01:53):
babysitting this family for overa year.
They are more on the conservative side and a lot more
religious than my family but they are generally nice and I
love their kids. I did not receive payment from
them the last time I babysat andso I reached out and they are
now saying they will not pay me the full price because I was
wearing something inappropriate.Just wondering if I am

(02:15):
overreacting. If it was inappropriate you they
would have just had you leave. They are taking advantage of you
most likely, but we don't know you know.
Let's continue reading. For context, I was wearing a
sweatshirt over my tank top and that'll be in the third picture
and only took it off after the kids asked me to run around with
them. A babysat from 4:00 to 10:30 and

(02:38):
normally charge $15.00 with a $5increase per kid.
So $20.00 for two kids, that's asteal for parents.
OK, I think I posted this multiple times.
I was having trouble posting both pictures, sorry.
OK so here we do. We have the text thread.
OK so this is from OP. Hi, hope you had a great
weekend. I just wanted to reach out

(02:59):
because I haven't gotten my payment from Wednesday yet.
I know you guys celebrate Good Friday and Easter so I totally
get that it probably slipped offyour radar, but if you couldn't
Venmo me when you have the chance, that would be fantastic.
Really well put by a 15 year old.
Fantastic. You're putting into
consideration their, their religion, their daily lives.

(03:22):
You know which obviously they'renot at all OK.
They replied back to her. Hello May Dan and I have been
talking about it and quite frankly we do not feel
comfortable paying you the full amount after you wore such an
inappropriate clothing to our house.
The kids love you and we are more than happy to give you a
second chance, but we cannot payyou more than $50 after you wore

(03:44):
that outfit. Was there like a terms and
conditions with that? OK and OP did reply.
Let's go ahead and get to that one.
Wow, I had no idea you guys feltthat way.
I am so so sorry I made you uncomfortable.
I just wanted to be in somethingflexible to run around in with

(04:05):
Sarah and Eliza. That being said, 50 honestly
does not feel like enough money for two kids and seven hours as
as you should say, because that is absolutely ridiculous.
That's like nothing that is thatis so much cheaper than daycare
and they know like they don't what they're doing.
These these parents know what they're they're doing,
especially if a 15 year old's catching on.

(04:28):
I understand you do not feel OK paying me full price and I'd be
willing to do half of what I normally charge.
OK, and there's picture of a 15 year old like literally in just
a cami like nothing wrong here. Like there it was literally your
typical like Walmart cami not not low cut, not anything.

(04:51):
So let's go ahead and take a look at the comments in that
screenshot of that photo of the conversation.
It showed that Opie like silencethe conversation which I don't
blame them because that's stressful but with tough
comments saying I second that you should tell your parent or a
trusted adult the family needs to pay you the full amount.
What you wore was not inappropriate correct and at

(05:15):
least and if it was they still need to pay you what they owe.
If they were uncomfortable with your clothing they would have
had a conversation with you or sent you home before they went
out. In my opinion it's just shady
behavior and an excuse not to pay up.
I also agree with what others are saying about them
sexualizing you. It's not cool, it's not OK Tell
an adult or do we have a situation where the the the dad

(05:39):
mind that she might have Oh, no,OK, hold on.
Are we having a situation where the mother overheard her husband
say something like a little sexualized about this 15 year
old girl? And so the mom is like
retaliating, but like, ma'am, this girl's a victim.

(06:00):
If not, either way, whoever it's, she's a victim.
She's a victim of y'all's littlefraud game, 'cause I'm sorry,
don't pop out little fucking kids if you can't fucking pay.
Damn. Like obviously you can't afford
an actual babysitter if you're paying a 15 year old because,
you know, 15 year olds or peoplethat I don't know, aren't
certified, don't know what theirservice really is.

(06:23):
You, you know what you're doing.Another comment saying did they
ever stress any rules about a dress code to you in the past?
I'm trying to see where they're coming from but really
struggling. This is insane.
Especially since you were looking after 2 girls.
Another amazing point to put out.
Like it's just two girls. Like I would get it if to an
extent, I mean I still wouldn't get it, but to an extent of like

(06:44):
little boys, you know, they onlyknow what they're exposed to.
But then again, there was nothing revealing it was it?
It's it's the same. This is giving.
This is so giving like school dress code where shoulders
distract boys. No, I feel like I feel like the

(07:07):
shoulders weren't distracting just any boys.
I think it would have exposed too many pedophiles that are
rooted deep into the public school system.
Yep, I said what I said. Cry me a river.
Because the ones that are cryingare the ones that are the ones
that defend them. They defend them, but they let
the kids be victims. So I'm going to go and take a

(07:30):
look at Opie's account though. Let's see, they did do a comment
saying thank you for donating. What?
Hold on. This girl got this girl got.
OK hold on, let's read it. Let's read it.
Shirley, thank you guys so much for all the kind comments.
I wish I could reply to all of them and thank everyone in my
original post. It's almost 10 million views and
this one at 600,000 so I wanted to bring people's attention to.

(07:55):
Oh man, this is how I know OP isliterally just the victim.
She attached a link to thesavethechildren.org.
It's a charity. And she continues.
And this is what she says. It's a charity that helps
children all around the world with food, poverty, education,
health, water, safety and so much more.
There are so many children living in active war zones.

(08:17):
A Babysitting has its ups and downs and I love it.
And most of all, I love the little kids I take care of and
it breaks my heart knowing so many little kids out there don't
have access to the things I do. Well, though, Pi highly.
Suggest getting in contact obviously with a trusted adult.
Not only that, you were very mature for your age.
Go ahead and talk to like a guidance counselor.

(08:43):
So you're looking into like CNA programs.
Usually a lot of high schools ormiddle schools, depending on
what state you're in, likes to do like dual credit for college.
And I totally can see you going into like nursing or going into
a case manager position, especially with providing

(09:03):
resources for the public to know.
You're like, wow, I am getting alot of attention on this.
Let's make this a purpose. Like all she wanted was advice
and it got so much attention. She's like, OK, let's switch it
over to the people that need it.And it's literally kids.
Like she's a kid. That takes a lot of maturity.

(09:24):
OK, wow. Not overreacting.
They're overreacting. And honestly, I would kind of
report them. I would have somebody that you
trust reach out because that is a little bit of like soliciting
of a minor and not in a way where it's sexual, but in a way

(09:48):
of they're taking advantage of aservice.
And also, I hope that I mean, there, I'm sure that there are
like states where you can work under 16 with like parent
regulation, Who knows? But no, this isn't normal.
I'm happy that you at least had this experience now and not
while you're like 18 and 19 trying to pay rent and a

(10:12):
business doesn't give you your paycheck and then you have to
wait an additional week or two until the next payout of the the
the payroll because people can'tdo their jobs.
What is the point of hiring office staff if they don't even
do their jobs Like? That's a different story.
Anyway, Speaking of different stories, here is the new story

(10:38):
titled Am I overreacting? Church member is harassing me.
OK, let's go ahead and I'm goingto do a little notation here.
Don't mind me, don't mind me. Never mind.
My computer does not want me to.I have too many tabs open and I
respect that. Sometimes you just got to say no
if it's too much. OK, let's read this brief

(11:01):
summary. My husband and I left a
Christian Church two years ago and he recently decided to make
a video explaining why we left. A church member decided to
message me and we had the conversation shown in the
screenshots. I informed my husband and
suggested his next video should be showing this conversation.
In order to discourage this typeof behavior, he says to just

(11:23):
ignore it. Am I overreacting?
So they did post a bunch of screenshots, so we do have
those. I'm going to go ahead and like I
said, read it as I. Go hold on, hold on.
OK, so screenshot number one, itsays this is sent to OP.

(11:45):
And keep in mind this is about they're asking if they're
overreacting because of this church member.
OK, already, already already. Wait, hold on, did I like
overlook this? My husband and I left the church
two years ago and he recently decided to make a video.
OK, gotcha. Gotcha.
All right, This is why you don'tmultitask.

(12:07):
You don't text while recording. So OP did get this message.
It says good morning Karina, we saw your husband's video and
just wanted to know if he can visit you this week to have a
conversation. Please let me know.
Thank you. OP replied good morning, do you
mean to visit and have a nice conversation as friends or about

(12:27):
the video that my husband shared?
They replied of course about thevideo.
We feel terrible that you all decided to leave the church.
So you feel bad now at the same time a video got released.
OK, let's let's continue. Opie said you are welcome to

(12:50):
visit us, but please just know we have no plans to be part of
the church anymore. Is this Scientology?
And they said you have no idea how many times we've heard this.
Everyone is always welcomed backand then oh that was a weird cut
off. OK, Opie replied we understand,
but please respect our decision.You are welcome to visit.

(13:12):
We are still friends with many people from the church, but we
will no longer be part of the church.
They replied. The same way your husband quote
respected our church by saying the conference is irresponsible.
Opie replied. I don't want to argue with you.
If this is the reason you want to visit then I don't think it's
a good idea. Have a good day.

(13:32):
They replied. We don't want to argue, but some
things do need to be clarified. The fuck they do?
Opie replied. You can just text us your
clarifications. We don't need.
We don't think a visit is required.
Why are they talking like the mafia?
We just want to you have a little chat about the money you
owe. They replied back saying no,

(13:53):
your husband needs to clarify a few things on another video and
Opie said I don't think so. They replied yes, we think so.
The board has seen the video andit is not right to spread lies.
Well, if it's such a lie, if it's such a lie, isn't there
like a thing called court suing people for defamation?

(14:18):
Isn't that crazy? Don't.
Aren't you like receiving a lot of donations?
Like we're use that money, Sue them, sue them, sue them.
If it's lies, do it. But you're not.
I wonder why? And Opie replied with a bulletin
message with point 1.2 and point3.1.

(14:39):
Everything he shared is the truth.
Two, we don't care what the board thinks.
Three, you are overreacting. See Opie, do you even need us?
Do you even need us? Unless you want to drop that
link and we can all you know Google search it and leave a
good review. Leave a really good review, they
replied. It's not right to spread lies
all over the Internet. Opie replied.

(15:01):
You are talking as a thousands of people saw the video please
we are no longer part of the church.
Have a good day and later down you obviously have like the
little time frame showing what time they replied.
So obviously time has passed since these messages and the
church says please answer the phone ring, ring Jesus calling,

(15:21):
delete the video. No they didn't say that but they
said please answer the phone. There are a few things that need
to be clarified. Please call me when you have the
chance. And then another screenshot from
OP saying I'm sorry but if you call or message me again I will
block your number. How considerate.
Just block them. And the church said if you then
another board member will be in touch with you.

(15:45):
This is the Jesus mafia. This is the Jesus mafia.
Let's go ahead and take a look at the comments.
We got like 30,000 up votes top comments.
Not overreacting. People like this suck.
Personally I would call them outbut don't do it if your husband
is uncomfortable with. It's very important.

(16:05):
It was his video. He might want to handle things
differently so just make sure you you collaborate.
But it seems like y'all are pretty smart people.
Smart people like to date other smart people.
So yeah, another comment. Would be a shame if the name of
the church was mentioned on thisthread or if a link of the video
was shared. Oh no.

(16:26):
I so hope that we don't find a ahyperlink of this church video.
Oh man oh boy, we got a comment.I actually watched the video
unfold. Got to say I do not understand
what the church can possibly need clarification for.
I expected some juicy details they would want hushed, which

(16:46):
happens frequently with corrupt churches or organizations.
I mean, that's just America and the video had none of that.
It's pretty straightforward and disagreeing with how church
funds are distributed and used, and considering the horrors you
hear about others, it's a prettyboring video in a good way.
Horrors are bad. I say you're definitely not
overreacting. That church and organization has

(17:06):
no business contacting you and they're obviously only doing it
to intimidate your husband into removing his video.
Which by the way, if you're reading this, it makes you look
so so much worse than you did with just the video.
Should have quit while you were ahead.
No one in this day and age is surprised when they find out a
church isn't putting their theirmoney to good use.

(17:27):
OP, block this person and any who contact you.
Keep records of everything that is sent and if it doesn't stop,
contact your lawyer and see whatyou can do about finally
restraining order against the whole church.
Church. That would be crazy paper
evidence trail to show that thischurch is ridiculous.
OK, let's look at those comments'cause they did do an

(17:49):
abbreviation of I think the church SDA.
That's what it said. I hate that when you click more
replies, it opens a tab just to have you click more replies
again. OK, let's see let's see.
No, I literally can't load it. OK, my my lovely got to gang

(18:13):
members. If you care.
That's the do your own research on that one because my computer
does not want to. Not that my computer is bad.
I just have it to where it's setup on like split screen so that
you guys can see the entire textas I read it for my visual ones
for my visual gatos. So let's go ahead and get into

(18:35):
the new story. Am I overreacting for thinking
my boyfriend is jealous of my dad?
Why does that matter? Why?
I don't know. That's really intriguing.
Let's read it. I guess my female 18 boyfriend's

(18:55):
male 20 is jealous of my dad andit's making me rethink
everything. OK, let's go ahead and.
See what they have to say about it.
My dad raised me alone and we'vealways been close.
He filed both parenting roles sowe're naturally affectionate and
calling him daddy. He's the only one I've ever

(19:18):
called that. It's never been weird to me.
OK my boyfriend met him a few months ago and immediately
started acting off. He said it was wrong for me to
wear a bikini around my dad at the beach.
All right that's it just drop him next story.
Like are you like serious? Does this dude like watch like

(19:39):
porn that's like daddy and like little girl stuff?
Like what is what type of woman has he dated in the fucking
past? He gives me weird looks when I
call him daddy and last night heliterally left after seeing me
cuddle next to my dad on the couch while we were just
watching a movie. God forbid a girl catch a vibe

(20:00):
with their dad. Like not in a weird way 'cause
if you thought of that in the weird way that shows how how
cursed we are when it comes to daughter and father bonds.
I was just latching onto his side and he had one arm around
me. OK, like.
Lately I've started holding backwith my dad just to avoid

(20:20):
upsetting him and that's not OK.There's nothing inappropriate
about our bond, but the way my boyfriend keeps sexualizing it,
that's what's gross. Ding Ding Ding.
And honestly I'm starting to rethink this relationship.
Am I overreacting and we got screenshots?
We have screenshots. OP said.
I don't understand why you're ignoring me with the little sad

(20:40):
emoji. Pickup babe.
Boyfriend says. Can I be honest, OP?
OK Boyfriend, it's about your dad.
The way around him. It's just weird.
You know her. What do you mean weird?
Boyfriend? You're too affectionate with
your dad. It's weird.
Girlfriend. How is being affectionate weird?

(21:02):
What's wrong with you? Seriously, You're still doing
this? He says you call him daddy.
Like come on. OP says I've been calling him
that since I was a kid. What's wrong with that?
You're the one being weird and he said no.
You're just too much with your dad.
It makes me uncomfortable. When I left to go grab a drink
last night I came back and you left my spot and you were

(21:22):
cuddling him instead and she said you're bothered I'm
cuddling with my dad. You are jealous of my dad.
Are you hearing yourself? This is gross.
You do realize that this dude isnot going to be upset about any
dude you interact with. You know, like the cash register

(21:43):
guy, the dude packing up your groceries, the dude you got to
tell that you want a pound of meat at the deli or any dude
that opens the door for you whenyou walk into the gas station,
Anything. This is this is how he's going
to react. OK.
He said no. I'm telling you how I feel.

(22:05):
It makes me uncomfortable. No one cuddles with their dad at
18. That's gross.
Are we like, forgetting that like, 18 year olds, like, are
graduating high school where they used to have to, like, ask
to use the bathroom, but then like, within a year, they're
having to decide what they want to do for the rest of their
lives at college while also having to be in massive debt
about it? Anyways, Opie says, I can't

(22:28):
believe you're sexualizing my relationship with my dad again.
Oh, that means that this conversation has happened
before. Boyfriend says I'm telling you
how I feel. Jesus fucking Christ, who wears
a bikini in front of their dad? What does this?
Oh man, I would get it if it's amicro bikini that was newly

(22:53):
released for summer of 2025. Victoria's Secret line?
Totally get it. A micro with AG string bikini?
Yeah, that's fucking weird. But the looks of this, I don't
think that that that this was a little tiny little triangle like
like what you do you do you not expect to go to a vacation and

(23:17):
not wear the clothes or the attire of that location?
Because I don't know about you, but in Texas it is hot as fuck
in certain areas. You expect her to wear a robe
like folk skin covered? OK hope you said you're still
hung up on that. You're disgusting.

(23:38):
Seriously. Bye.
And we have another screenshot. The last screenshot and it is
just the boyfriend spamming. So we're going to read the spam.
You're overreacting. Please answer your phone.
I'm just telling you this so youdon't do this in public.
People would be uncomfortable. Fuck I'm sorry I went too far.

(23:58):
Please pick up. Not used to this at all.
That's all. Sorry.
Sorry baby. Please try to understand me.
I'm not trying to be malicious, just not used to seeing dads
like this. OK, let's go ahead and take a
look at the comments. Not a new story at the comments.

(24:21):
Top comments. I cuddle up to my dad and I'm
turning 20 this year. I remember being 15 and resting
my head on his shoulder, cuddle to his side on the couch when my
rabbit died. I did the same thing when my
kitten died from parvo. Sorry to hear that.
I did the same thing a few weeksweeks ago when we found out my
uncle died. It's comforting.
That's your dad. We're lucky to have loving

(24:43):
fathers. That's not something everyone
gets. Take advantage of it.
Don't let other people's experience ever influence your
own, OK? Whether positive or negative,
the way you respond to that experience is what makes it your
experience. Those are just some words of

(25:04):
wisdom for me. The tired of the cats get it
'cause I'm tired got to. For those that never really
understood what got to meant. OK, next comment.
I'm a dad to three daughters andI would hate to have a guy tell
any of my daughters this. My oldest, 27, still sits on my
lap sometimes and I love that Ather wedding I spun her around

(25:24):
like I did when she was little. I miss them being little and
they've told me they miss being little too.
There's something special about that relationship.
Don't let him sour it. And if I can add this trust and
love is why anyone takes advantage of a child should
immediately be. Put to death.
Get a round of applause WS in the chat for this redditor.

(25:46):
Father right here. Let me reiterate it if you
missed it and if I can add this.Trust and love cough cough.
Father and daughter bonding is why anyone that takes advantage
of a child should immediately beput to death.

(26:09):
And for those of you that would like to have a little bit of
comfort and people putting thesetype of people in their place,
take a look at DAP Dad's AgainstPredators.
JD on Oh my gosh, I'm blanking. Alex Flowers.
I think he's predator poachers now.

(26:29):
Yeah, there's a lot of them. And if you just start out with
those three, you see so much more.
They collaborate with a lot of people.
It's amazing. It truly is.
They're working for us, man. They're working for our public
community. But let's go ahead and get to
the next story called Am I overreacting for cutting off all

(26:50):
Ties? So let's go ahead and read this
one. It does.
Obviously it's going to be screenshots again, so bear with
me. Let's read it.
There have never been red flags up until this point.
Man that's a hook. They they beat me in my hook for
this episode. That would have made me want to
stay a lot longer. He 25 male is a big part of my

(27:13):
19 female friend group. Am I being sensitive?
OK I feel like he went too far but if I cut all ties with him
it will really disrupt the group.
I don't want to bring it up to my friends because they might
side with him and say I'm overreacting but I don't feel
comfortable around him anymore. OK, 19 to 25, a bit of an age

(27:36):
gap. You're, you're dealing with two
completely different types of worlds.
Like that's post high school, new adult world of
responsibility. I think you have 26 where
everyone you knew in high schoolis graduated, whether it be a
bachelor's or blah, blah, blah. Whatever degree they decided to

(27:56):
pick or vocational, whatever, ifthey're kind of adjusting to
their adult world because let's be real, nobody figures it out
at 20. I mean, hell, no one figures it
out. It's just you just go along with
life. You make the decisions of what
you want in your life, and everydecision influences your next

(28:19):
outcome. It does.
And at 26, you have that bit more experience.
Yeah. It's like, what, 19202123 for
six years of extra time. So when he was six years old,
they were born. Yeah.
You see where things can get a little sticky because emotions

(28:43):
are pretty heightened when it comes to after high school
because it's a lot of influence,especially when it comes to
social media. Like, everybody wants to, like,
put themselves out there, which,nothing wrong with that.
Hello. That's me too.
I love connecting with people. Who the hell doesn't?
We're social beings. But you can easily exploit
people that just came out of high school.

(29:05):
OK, let's read the screenshots. OP said you're going to do
great, bud. And somebody and somebody, the
dude, well, what do you want to call him?
Let's call him a name. Let's call him Fred.
Fred the oh, he's 25, not 26, but still OK, Fred.
Fred said. I need to be honest, I know we

(29:29):
only know each other for a few months, but damn, it feels like
I've known you my whole life. You're the kindest, most
thoughtful and talent young ladyI've ever met and I need you to
understand that I don't say these things lightly, I mean
them. So do me a favor.

(29:49):
So you made her a victim and having to carry your own
luggage, bud. Really Fred, OP, what do you
want to call her? OK, so we have Fred and Olivia.
Let's call her Olivia because Olivia is such a beautiful
pretty name. Sorry if you know her really bad
Olivia, that probably just ruined that for you or you
probably cringed. That's OK, this is a different
Olivia. Olivia said.

(30:11):
Oh thanks. I think you're a great, pretty
great fella. What's up?
Fred says let me take you on a date, a real date.
I'll get you those flowers toys,the why is he typing like this?
I'll get you those flowers toy like is he talking about like

(30:32):
that? Like masturbation toy, the
flower toy? I'm sorry if you don't know what
that means, do not look it up because if you needed to know
what it means, you would know anyways, Olivia says.
I'm flattered Fred, truly, but Ithink we're your great friends.
Just friends, best look. I'm sorry.

(30:54):
It doesn't help that this screenshot literally is just
like it's like she customized her phone to where it's all pink
in the background and she replies with like bow emojis to
each message and hers is like a bright pink and his is like a
little like it just looks like aROM com like Sailor Moon AI
knockoff. Anyways, she said.
I'm flattered Fred, truly, but Ithink we're great friends.

(31:16):
Just friends, but best friends. The most awesome friends ever.
Damn, Olivia, I I you didn't really need to rub it into him
like that, but to be. Fair.
If you notice, he doesn't reallyrespect boundaries.

(31:38):
I get that, but I think you could have ended it at the first
friends he sent the the straightfaced emoji.
Next screenshot he says Olivia be serious.
She sent a question mark, Fred said you're going to pass me up.
Why for some pedo is homie reflecting?

(32:01):
Is homie reflecting and deflecting?
Excuse me, we're we're bringing up the word pedo.
I bet you she probably recently just turned 19 by the way that
you just freely threw out the word fucking pedo after she said
no. Are you gaslighting her and to

(32:22):
thinking that she has to like you?
At least she's saying no to you and not using you for a free
meal night. God damn Fred, fuck off, Olivia
said. Fred, seriously don't do that.
As you should, Queen Fred said. You do realize the only reason
guys hate? Oh God.

(32:42):
You guys, you do realize the only reason why guys hit you up
and are friends with you is because they're pedos?
Because you dress and act like achild.
Oh, oh, Fred, Fred sexualizing children.
Oh, OK wow. I wasn't trying to like point

(33:03):
out the age gap and. Fear of that, but.
Wow, I think my theory is working out.
You're easy prey and honestly think anyone is willing to put
up with a 19 year old dressing like you and sleeping with
stuffed animals like she's two years old?
Think again. I'm willing to.

(33:24):
I am the exception and I love you for even the weird stuff.
I am not a pedo like your ex. First off Fred.
First off Fred, hold on, hold on.
I've got something to show you. Fred, hold, hold, hold on.
Give me a second. Hold on.

(33:44):
I'm still here. I'm still here.
Keep in mind Fred, you're talking to a 19 year old.
You have no idea what women become when they have adult
money. You don't even know.
You're not ready for this, Fred.I don't think you're ready for
this world. Let her sleep with her.

(34:04):
Damn stuffed animals. A woman will be attached.
Oh, Fred, you got a long ways togo.
A long ways. OK, so I'm going to go ahead and
put these little fellas back formy audio stemmers.
My hands are full with stuffed animals.

(34:25):
And not just any stuffed animals, my favorite Beanie
Baby. Write that down.
Write that down my male audience.
Figure out who your crush loves as a what is that called?
Animate object. Something that is not real.
A little. A little fidget toy, a little a
little trinket. Yeah, figure out what trinket

(34:48):
that girl fucks with like she really, really likes.
Not something that you think's cool, that she has something
that she values, something that she doesn't usually mess with a
lot because she doesn't want it to break.
Figure that out. Get her a bunch of those.
You'll you'll you'll link me later.
But anyways, let me let me put my little army back.

(35:08):
Army back. This is at 35 minutes for my
people going over to YouTube. You won't.
You won't feel bad for switchingover.
I'll be right back. Hold on.
Oh. Man, OK, anyways, glad we did

(35:32):
our little notes for today, Olivia replied.
Goodness gracious, way too far. Honestly he didn't even deserve
a reply. OK oh she did not do a good
screenshot. Back.
OK, so it says. Good news Gracious way too.
Far, and it says. What does that even say?
You already, it's like cut off. You already do do do do do.

(36:00):
You are already. Treating me and blaming me or
threatening me, I can't tell. What that says it's.
Hard enough to be myself. I don't need you to tear me down
because I said we were friends. Fritz is sensitive.
The only dudes who will ever love you are going to be pedos
and you know it. Other than me.
But you missed your chance. Good luck getting assaulted
again. Text me when you're ready to

(36:21):
have a. Grown up conversation and when
you realize. What I said is facts.
Olivia said wow because wow whatthe fuck?
He said forget I said anything and it was all a joke and test.
Fred obviously is extremely behind when it comes to
developmental stages of what's that called, being a fucking

(36:44):
person not being a fucking horrible person, Fred, do you
not? What?
Oh my gosh. I know that he says that he
hated like middle school, but inreality it's because he made
middle school fucking living hell for everyone else around
him. Oh hell no.

(37:04):
I know a lot of guidance counselors know this fucking
dude's name. OK, now I see how sensitive you
really are. So good luck on your crappy book
in life. Wow, wow, Olivia said.
I had no clue he was. No one did.
Don't use that as a weapon against me.
You're really hurting my feelings, he said.

(37:26):
I don't know why she said that. I think she's not including all
of that. That was a really weird
transition. It was all the tests, blah,
blah, blah. And it said I had no clue he
was. No one did.
OK, Yeah. Don't use that as a weapon
against me, OK? You wear pigtails and play with
dolls. You honestly were that stupid
not to realize he was into that.Oh, we got her real name.

(37:49):
But I'm still going to say Olivia.
Olivia, I'm not going to hurt you.
And she's Olivia said you already have.
You're insulting me and blaming me.
It's hard enough to be myself. I don't need you to tear me down
because I said we were friends. He said sensitive.
The only dudes who will ever love you are going to be pedos
and you know it other than me. But you missed your chance.
Good luck getting assaulted again.
OK I see what happened with these screenshots.

(38:12):
I totally believe that this situation like literally just
happened and she posted it. Which I I don't blame her
because that's a lot of adrenaline.
That was a lot of attacking at her personality, her hobbies,
like her books, her stuffed animals, her actual soul.
I don't blame her for putting this around.
That's OK because we have commonsense.

(38:34):
Unlike Fred, we can put things together.
She said, oh, he did say, he didsay a message.
Obviously time has passed because of that little time
stamp saying today at 2:29 PM. Hey, just wanted to apologize
for earlier. Can we go to lunch and talk
about it? Just friends.
Olivia, let me translate. For you.
Let me translate that for you real quick.

(38:55):
What he meant to say was hey Olivia, sorry I would hit and
jerked it real quick in the shower.
I was gooning in the corner. Now I can think straight and
realize how fucking disgusting of a man I am.
It's OK though I don't think Fred will ever come to terms
with. Who he is or how he is.
Hence why he hangs out with 19 year olds.

(39:15):
And not people. His age because 19 year olds,
usually some people less fortunate than the others,
aren't that self aware with how shitty people really can be.
And that's OK. That's OK, but easily exploited.
Like I fucking said and Olivia said, I don't feel comfortable

(39:37):
associating with you anymore. Good work, good work.
And he said I told you as friends.
Olivia said no, I don't want to be friends either.
He said I'll you're being ridiculous, I'll pay.
And she said back to insulting me, no, I'm done.
Yes, be done. And you also do not need to make
a formal statement of if you aredone with somebody, because in

(40:03):
more cases than not it puts you in an even worse situation.
Especially if it's in public. Yeah, it gives people the
advantage of knowing your motives.
Don't do that, especially if they're exploiting you.
Let's go ahead and take a look at the comments.
Save the text. Save the text or screenshots of
the text case. You need them in the future.
If he harasses you, no, you're not overreacting in the least.

(40:25):
Keep him blocked. He is dangerous.
If he shows up where you go to work or to college, document if
and seeks safety. If he shows up at your house,
call the police. You're worthy of safety.
Your safety matters. And honestly, I absolutely agree
with this and. Go ahead and make the case now.
Start the paper fucking trail evidence so that when shit goes.
Down because it will go down like like that Yeah, I can't

(40:49):
snap right. I don't have a snapping sound
effects, but it can go like that.
So you want to be safe than sorry.
Rather have a black eye with evidence rather than a black eye
and in a ditch. Sorry, that might be very vocal,
but it's. The reality of safety also go to
a gun range that's pretty fun and also.

(41:10):
Guys like that. So like the right guys?
Guys that like it when girls candefend themselves.
Keep that in mind. A dude that likes a girl that
carries means that they like it when women have independence.
OK another comment. Besides all the creepy stuff and
predatory behavior of this dude,why would anyone be friends with
someone who talks down to them like that?
What a condescending creep. And I wouldn't be surprised if

(41:33):
he did that to. Any of the other girls in the
group? Because if she is wanting to
save the piece for the friend group, what makes you think that
the other girls aren't? Doing the same.
I didn't even think about that. My jaws dropped too.
Like what? OK and why is a 25 year old man

(41:55):
part of a friend group of teenagers?
Not overreacting. OK, I.
Pope, OP. Takes this as an amazing
opportunity to sit down, read all 5.9 K of these comments and
realize that it's it's OK to call people out for bullshit.

(42:18):
This is. This is not normal.
Not normal at all. I'm actually genuinely curious,
have any of you like had any situations where you had to kind
of expose the bad friends? Like you don't really see too
many comments about those types of stories and like what worked

(42:40):
for you versus what did work foryou?
Genuinely curious. OK, we're going to do one more
story and hopefully I utilize my, what is it called, my
yapping session timer. I'm still kind of new to this.
I'm changing things up as much as possible, but let's go ahead
and do this new story, the last story.
Am I overreacting or is this normal language for medical

(43:03):
appointment notes? Sheesh, that's going to read it.
Let's read this. I do love me some juicy
healthcare. I went to see a hematologist for
random bruising and he seemed tohave quite the judgmental
attitude as I asked him a question about birth control.
I have a blood disorder. He then started lecturing me
about unprotected sex and vulvalcancer.

(43:27):
OK, as you should. You have to.
I don't not mean to hit my mic. Sorry about that.
As he should. You you have to educate what the
treatment is about and side effects so I see nothing wrong
about here. I checked my patients notes and
these are a couple random notes I thought were phrased weird.

(43:48):
Is this normal or am I reacting for being a little offended?
My doctor nicely called me a slut with a bull ring.
Oh. Man OK, here's a screenshot.
She smokes marijuana in it and is somewhat promiscuous.
Whoa. The last word probably shouldn't

(44:11):
have been used. Definitely probably shouldn't
have used another screenshot. Mouth, normal oral mucus and
like everything's fine. A small Bullring on nose.
No, nothing wrong with the Bullring.
That's literally. But like.

(44:32):
That's kind of universal, like the bull ring is always,
everybody knows what a bull ringis.
It's kind of like how we measureand like inches in America or
centimeters. Just like, yeah, like it's not
like he's saying it's dime sizedring or like 24 gauge ring.

(44:53):
Like no, but that's kind of whatif you search for the jewelry,
what's it called? But the promiscuous part, that's
weird. You're not Fergie.
You're not in the 90s, early 2000s being Fergalicious.
Like you're fine. Let's go ahead and take a look
at the comments. This is actually hilarious but

(45:13):
so fucked up. Too.
Is a doctor wrong though? Please, I need to know.
That was such a weird way to write it.
Let's see if there's any repliesto that.
Let's read it. Can I please open the replies?
I literally can't open the replies.
That's OK, that is perfectly. Fine, let's see what other
people are saying. He shouldn't have just written

(45:33):
sex, drugs and rock'n'roll. I would have said the same thing
but more fun. Guessing this is a red state
Southern stuff. That is actually not true at
all. This usually has to do with
areas that are understaffed and overworked, which is actually
more common in not red states because red states get a lot

(45:56):
more state funding that is votedin by by the state by like the
little the little city meetings and all that fun little stuff to
get approval for additional funding.
When it comes to healthcare. This type of situation is
actually more commonly found in blue states that have lower

(46:18):
graduation rates when it comes to medical care and higher dense
population. That's why when you see on the
election maps a lot of major cities, especially in Texas, you
can take a look, Austin, San Antonio, Dallas, they're they're
they were voted in as blue. And that's because a lot of blue
states or just blue communities are very compacted lifestyles.

(46:44):
It's city life. And yeah, So no, it's not
necessarily RedState southern stuff.
Don't get me wrong, red states, southern stuff can have these
issues. I'm not saying that Nas never
happens. But to generalize it like that
when the statistics say differently, not, not, not the

(47:04):
smartest thing to comment when someone's asking for advice.
It's very misleading. However, if you have had an
experience with this, definitelynot discrediting you.
Nobody should be treated like this, regardless of your
political standpoint. That's just not how human rights
work. It's an extreme human violation.
Everyone is allowed and should be able to have healthcare

(47:27):
provided to them, no matter whatgender, what race, what
political background, what anything.
Yeah so no. And yes another comment.
I had a new OBGYN who I see because their birth control was
overdue for a change. I told him I was Polly and had
multiple sexual partners so I wanted to order an SDI testing

(47:49):
while I was in to see him. He convinced me my birth control
was wrong even though I've been on it for various forms since
12:00 for bleeding disorders. Despite me trying to advocate
for myself and tell him I knew what worked for my body, he just
kept insisting that my periods being about 45 days apart and
super light was abnormal and we needed to fix it.
What? Excuse me, instinct.

(48:12):
With their instinct they were given his bulging eyes at the
thought of a mother of two beingpromiscuous.
I know he was suggesting this for my own good.
I think he felt it was his morallike imperative to correct my
behavior. Needless to say, I walked out
with a prescription for birth control pills and in tears
because I knew what the next fewweeks were going to look like.

(48:33):
And I was right. My depression cratered until the
suicidal ideation was just too much.
I tried going back to the DoctorWho insisted that hormonal birth
control doesn't affect mood thatway and that we just needed to
switch prescriptions to get control of my normal bleeding.
Going on two weeks at that time now.
Super heavy. I picked another doctor, looked
at ratings this time, and when Iexplained the situation he was

(48:56):
legit confused as to why the prior doctor hadn't given me the
the Mirena. Again.
To answer your question, not overreacting, definitely
professional in my story was to illustrate how common sense
these fuck wits seem to think that they can control what they
see as morally ambiguous. OK, See you get a lot of stories
of a lot of doctors. That they just, they, they put

(49:19):
their own moral compass into patients.
I do not, I do not agree with that and neither do any state
boards of medical. That is like the baseline rule.
I just believe that this happensover the phenomenon of being too
comfortable at work many, many years the same, multiple
different faces. And when you're in charge and

(49:39):
you are literally basically playing God.
With people you get a little carried.
Away and. Obviously, these horror stories
spread a lot quicker. Than the good stories so.
That's why you see a lot of these.
Just remember my friend listening, if you ever find
yourself in this situation or ifyou are in the situation, you

(50:01):
are 100% entitled for an immediate Dr. change.
No charge. Whether you pay out of pocket
insurance, any insurance, state funded insurance, and any of it
work insurance, you are immediately entitled to a new
Doctor. You are not ever responsible for

(50:25):
making that change either. There are people that you know
get paid. The beautiful office workers I
so dearly love when it comes to medical.
We'll take care of it. And if they don't, they're a
fucking lying to you. Voice record.
Video record. Honestly, video record the most
please just get as much evidenceas possible because you know

(50:45):
sometimes they fuck with the wrong person and that person's
you and you're ready. You just double tap your little
camera thing on your phone little side button.
Get that fucking video going girl.
Going my little bestie and also going for you too dude.
Because men's health is also extremely important and very
overshadowed as well because like hell you don't need to look

(51:07):
at breast cancer awareness. You don't even realize that men
make up a lot of it too. Like it's insane.
Anyways, you're entitled to a new provider, you're entitled to
your own medical actions, and also when a doctor suggests
something and you say no, which saying just know is also a
complete sentence. All they do is document that

(51:29):
they aren't, they were educated on the alternative and that you
denied service. Like even if you go to the ER,
Let's say you go to the ER and you're like, no, I want to leave
now. Or if they're taking too long to
discharge you just for like the discharge paperwork, or even if
you're like, you know, they're treating me weird.
I don't like this. They're not listening to me.
You can get up and go unless it's obviously like a

(51:52):
psychiatric emergency. Look at things, get a little.
Complicated, but you can just get up and go and like you they
and then they'll be like, well, you have to wait and you have to
sign a a release form that you're not going to be a
following doctor like policy or policy doctor orders to stay.

(52:12):
You don't have to sign that. Isn't that crazy?
They're not law. They are not law.
And unfortunately people in power will always eventually
come across the ones that will take advantage of it and play
God. Like bitch, go download The Sims
if you want to play God. These are fucking people that

(52:33):
know their bodies and everybody is different.
Literally, there's so many different medications because of
how many different people react to different medications.
There's alternatives. Fuck that shit.
Anyways, let's go ahead and close it out.
I really hope you enjoyed this one, bestie.
Let me think of something a little a little crazy for you to

(52:59):
think on. Until the next episode.
Well, I guess I do have a prettyfun question for you guys.
Would you think a hot pocket as a ravioli, would that be

(53:21):
ravioli? Because it's like, you know, a
ravioli has like like some type of carb covering a pocket of
like meat or cheese or vegetable.
Is it a ravioli? And if it is a ravioli, why
don't we have any Chef board ID Pop Pocket Collaborations?
Is hot pocket owned by chef board ID?
Isn't it within the same corporation?

(53:42):
Huh, I don't know, I guess that's just something for us to
think about. Hot Pockets.
But then what would that make? A tostino pizza, huh?

Are You A Charlotte?

In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City.

Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today.
