New features on the iHeartRadio app even more than the presets.
I'm going to talk about that in like three minutes,
but before we get into that, And Ashley, I saw
a tweet you said on Twitter. I didn't know that
you could get banned from Open Table?

Speaker 2 (00:17):
Had no clue.

Speaker 1 (00:18):
All right, who got banned from Open Table in eight
hundred four old nine ninety three ninety three? What are
you ban from? So? Band from something? Right now? Eight
hundred four O nine ninety three ninety three.

Speaker 2 (00:28):
One of my friends who was in town and I
sent her and you know, you can send an invite
to a person if you make a reservation on an
open table and she goes, I can't open it. I
was like why, She's like, cause I'm banned from Open Table?

Speaker 1 (00:39):
Like how do you get banned from open Table?

Speaker 2 (00:42):
And apparently you can get banned when you don't cancel
a reservation, when you just don't show up?

Speaker 1 (00:46):
But how lazy do you have to be.

Speaker 2 (00:49):
To just not cancel a reservation? And I was so
shocked at how many people were banned from this particular app.

Speaker 1 (00:57):
Is anyone in here banned from Open Table? I don't
even think I So you're not.

Speaker 2 (01:01):
If you if you yeah, I mean, if she's banned.
I think she said she got an email saying she's
banned for two years, Like you would think a couple
of months, but years.

Speaker 1 (01:09):
I I mean, I think it's fair. Really, yeah, I
think it's fair because if you're not showing up, you're
taking a table away, and it's the restaurant's losing money.

Speaker 2 (01:18):
I mean, but they give you a grace period anyway.
If I'm not there in fifteen minutes, you know I'm
not coming.

Speaker 1 (01:23):
Yeah, But what I'm saying is is that if you
don't show up though that fifteen minutes, it could have
been reserved. How many times banned? Oh my god, that's
a bit much. Just I don't know. What are you
banned from? Kwan? I missed you. Happy belated birthday, Kwan.

I believe, like I was banned from the Lakeland Square
Theater because my friend at the time they had This
is when like the little laser lights were like real
big and they were pointing the lasers at the protector
and getting on. So we all got banned. I was like, dang,

I don't get banned from nothing. I'm like, I'm thinking
about my mom up whatever. But literally so moved. Three
weeks later the theater closed down because I didn't.

Speaker 1 (02:28):

movie theater there, right, can you go in there? Yeah?

you know, yeah, but it's like cinema.

next to the mall and it was pretty bad. But
they end up closing it down for reasons, no.
