1
00:00:02,680 --> 00:00:06,480
Speaker 1: Had I ever been left waiting by the phone. It's

2
00:00:06,519 --> 00:00:10,399
Speaker 1: the Fred Show. Kennedy, good morning, Hi, good morning, Welcome

3
00:00:10,400 --> 00:00:13,000
Speaker 1: to the show. Waiting by the phone. So let's hear

4
00:00:13,080 --> 00:00:16,520
Speaker 1: about Brian. Tell us how you met, about any days

5
00:00:16,560 --> 00:00:18,680
Speaker 1: that you've been on, and what's happening right now and

6
00:00:18,720 --> 00:00:19,400
Speaker 1: how we can help.

7
00:00:19,600 --> 00:00:24,200
Speaker 2: I met Brian on Hinge, and you know, he really

8
00:00:24,239 --> 00:00:27,520
Speaker 2: stood out for my other matches because I felt like

9
00:00:27,800 --> 00:00:31,200
Speaker 2: we really had a connection, Like first of all, a

10
00:00:31,200 --> 00:00:35,239
Speaker 2: connection through the profile, like we had similar interest and

11
00:00:35,479 --> 00:00:39,440
Speaker 2: just like you know, also the conversation that we had

12
00:00:39,479 --> 00:00:42,960
Speaker 2: on the app, you know, through messaging. Yeah, I felt

13
00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:46,400
Speaker 2: like we really had something. And so you know, I

14
00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:50,960
Speaker 2: got really excited when he eventually asked me out, you know,

15
00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:53,920
Speaker 2: to go out for drinks, and so we did. We

16
00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:56,639
Speaker 2: went out and we had.

17
00:00:56,520 --> 00:01:00,560
Speaker 3: A really great time, and well, at least I did,

18
00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:05,720
Speaker 3: and I thought that he did as well. But I

19
00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:09,959
Speaker 3: guess I was wrong in thinking that she enjoyed it

20
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:14,240
Speaker 3: because he hasn't. He hasn't you know, texted or called

21
00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:15,240
Speaker 3: me at all since.

22
00:01:15,600 --> 00:01:19,240
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, now here's the question. Do you I mean,

23
00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:21,480
Speaker 1: obviously you do, or at least you'd like to know more,

24
00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:24,080
Speaker 1: But when you go out with somebody one time, do

25
00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:27,200
Speaker 1: you expect that they're gonna call you and say, hey,

26
00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:29,160
Speaker 1: I'm not interested in seeing you anymore.

27
00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:34,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, if they don't want to see me again, I

28
00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:35,200
Speaker 2: think that.

29
00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:38,399
Speaker 3: The things to do would be it doesn't have to

30
00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:39,120
Speaker 3: be a phone call.

31
00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:42,319
Speaker 2: It could be a text message to say that, you know,

32
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:46,920
Speaker 2: like they don't think it's gonna work out, or they're.

33
00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:49,760
Speaker 3: Just not interested, or they didn't feel a connection.

34
00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:52,760
Speaker 2: I mean, I've done that too to people in the past,

35
00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:57,200
Speaker 2: because I don't think ghosting is just not it's not

36
00:01:57,360 --> 00:02:01,440
Speaker 2: good because it doesn't provide any closure, and like it's

37
00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:05,040
Speaker 2: so quick just to send a text message and be like, hey,

38
00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:08,640
Speaker 2: you know, I appreciate your time, Like, you know, it

39
00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:10,400
Speaker 2: was nice that we went out, but it's just not

40
00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:13,840
Speaker 2: gonna works up a lot of time and energy.

41
00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:17,639
Speaker 1: Yeah, adult mature thing to do. Except in this case, though,

42
00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:20,000
Speaker 1: you look back on this date and the pre conversation

43
00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:22,200
Speaker 1: and all that, and you're like this, this was great,

44
00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:25,080
Speaker 1: Like you left thinking he's gonna call me, we're gonna

45
00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:27,960
Speaker 1: go out again. We're really getting somewhere.

46
00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:28,840
Speaker 4: Here, Yeah exactly.

47
00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:31,000
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, well let's see if we can get

48
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:33,880
Speaker 1: Brian on the phone, and we'll ask questions. You'll be

49
00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:36,120
Speaker 1: on the phone as well. At some point. You're welcome

Speaker 1: some info for you first, and hopefully whatever's going on,

52
00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:42,800
Speaker 1: we could straighten out and set you guys up on

00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:44,320
Speaker 1: another date and pay for that.

54
00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:46,760

89
00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:28,040
Speaker 4: she was very, very rude. She answered like a zoom

90
00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:30,520
Speaker 4: call in the middle of our date. I mean, like

91
00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:32,600
Speaker 4: the first date. That's kind of crazy to me.

92
00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:34,960
Speaker 1: What do you mean a zoom call, like like she

93
00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:38,120

94
00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:40,719
Speaker 1: on your She did.

95
00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:42,960
Speaker 4: Like a whole work meeting right in front of me

96
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:45,799
Speaker 4: and during our date for like fifteen minutes. I was like, wow,

97
00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:46,800
Speaker 4: that's crazy.

98
00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:50,520

100
00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:54,600
Speaker 1: puts in the AirPods, hold on one second, and takes

101
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:55,440
Speaker 1: an entire meeting.

102
00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:59,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's crazy. I was like, Okay, that's that's just insane.

103
00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:04,800
Speaker 1: Well, what's the problem. I mean, I guess I know

104
00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:07,520
Speaker 1: it sounds like something you would do. That is absolutely

105
00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:10,160
Speaker 1: something I do. But let me okay, let me bring

106
00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:13,320
Speaker 1: Kennedy in here. Kennedy, why are we taking I forgot

107
00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:15,119
Speaker 1: too mention of the Kennedy's here. I'm sorry, I always

108
00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:17,480
Speaker 1: forget that part. Kennedy. Why are we taking zoom meetings

109
00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:18,440
Speaker 1: in the middle of a date.

110
00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:21,840
Speaker 2: Well, I'm just a very busy woman, like and you know,

111
00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:25,360
Speaker 2: I have to work. And I mean it was five

112
00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:30,160
Speaker 2: pm when we met, and so what what did you expect,

113
00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:33,320
Speaker 2: Brian when you schedule drinks at that time?

114
00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:35,679
Speaker 1: That sounds like you were in a date with me. Actually,

115
00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:39,719
Speaker 1: so at five o'clock day? Why'd you have to go

116
00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:42,039
Speaker 1: at five? I mean, why couldn't you have said I

117
00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:44,320
Speaker 1: got a meeting at whatever time and then it's later.

118
00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:46,080
Speaker 1: I mean, why wasn't there better communication?

119
00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:48,520
Speaker 4: That's why I would have asked. I mean, that's why

120
00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:50,920
Speaker 4: I felt it was rude, because nobody told me.

121
00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:53,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, but you said five o'clock. Why did you say?

122
00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:55,000
Speaker 1: Why are we having you know, I mean, unless you're

123
00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:57,080
Speaker 1: me and you get up at your grandpa and you

124
00:05:57,120 --> 00:05:58,720
Speaker 1: get up at three thirty, why are we going out

125
00:05:58,720 --> 00:05:59,400
Speaker 1: at five o'clock?

126
00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:01,720
Speaker 4: I thought she'd be that would work by then.

127
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:05,159
Speaker 2: Well, you know, because I'm really busy, and I also,

128
00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:09,120
Speaker 2: besides work, I have a social life too, So I

Speaker 1: date and see your friends that night, so you had

135
00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:27,960
Speaker 1: to pack all that in. So it's kind of your

136
00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:30,680
Speaker 1: fault then. So I mean you're saying, he scheduled at

137

Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree. He offered five pm, and I agreed

139
00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:40,640
Speaker 2: to it because, you know, I was really excited.

140
00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:41,000
Speaker 4: To meet him.

141
00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:43,920
Speaker 2: I really wanted to meet him. And like I said,

142
00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:46,640
Speaker 2: I'm just really busy, I mean just throughout the whole week.

143
00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:49,920
Speaker 2: It wasn't just this one day. So I had to really,

144
00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:54,120
Speaker 2: you know, fit him into my schedule. But like I

145
00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:57,279
Speaker 2: wanted to, you know, I wanted to spend time with him.

146
00:06:57,320 --> 00:06:58,240
Speaker 1: And that's what you did.

147
00:06:58,320 --> 00:06:59,400
Speaker 2: You spend time with him.

148
00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:00,880
Speaker 1: But you also handle business.

149
00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:02,599
Speaker 3: And she's a hustler.

150
00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:04,000
Speaker 1: That's what hustlers do.

151
00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:07,040
Speaker 4: You work in sales, but you're not out here saving line.

152
00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:08,400
Speaker 4: It's not that important.

153
00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:17,640
Speaker 1: We're done at like one o'clock around here. Anyway, She's

154
00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:20,680
Speaker 1: trying to be efficient over here. Look, if I if

155
00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:23,680
Speaker 1: I'm dating you, if we're together and I know you better,

156
00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:25,440
Speaker 1: and I'm not trying to make a first impression, it's

157
00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:27,320
Speaker 1: a first date. If I got to take a work call,

158
00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:29,600
Speaker 1: my boss calls someone like that, then I answered the phone,

159
00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:32,600
Speaker 1: I might excuse myself. But like on a first date.

160
00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:34,880
Speaker 1: I mean, this is the this is the part that

161
00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:37,920
Speaker 1: people like. Clearly when they call this segment, they don't

162
00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:40,920
Speaker 1: think about you're making a first impression, like this is

163
00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:43,280
Speaker 1: the first time you're going to meet somebody, and it's like, yo,

164
00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:45,280
Speaker 1: I don't Oh, whatever story that was, I don't care.

165
00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:46,600
Speaker 1: I don't want to hear about your niece. I'm going

166
00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:48,600
Speaker 1: to take a zoom call now. It's not a good look.

167
00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:50,640
Speaker 4: That's exactly what I would have said.

168
00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:53,600
Speaker 2: I have a job and I have to work, you know,

169
00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:55,280
Speaker 2: it's important to me.

170
00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:57,680
Speaker 4: I have to make money, you.

171
00:07:57,640 --> 00:08:00,800
Speaker 1: Know, except the date. Then they come up with another time,

172
00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:03,920
Speaker 1: you know, like go after or go another day, or

173
00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:06,600
Speaker 1: don't commit to seeing your friends. I don't think it's

174
00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:10,640
Speaker 1: that unreasonable to give somebody an hour, hour and a

175
00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:15,040
Speaker 1: half at minimum of your undivided attention on a first meeting.

176
00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:16,640
Speaker 1: I don't think that's too much to ask.

177
00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:19,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, because it was almost like a median I mean,

178
00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:21,560
Speaker 4: I felt like I felt like a dummy sitting there

179
00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:25,560
Speaker 4: sis in my drink while you're taking this zoom call.

180
00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:27,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't blame you. Look, is there any chance

181
00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:31,280
Speaker 1: that if Kennedy reconsiders this, you know, but maybe realizes

182
00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:33,880
Speaker 1: that this was not this pretty rude and if we

183
00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:36,440
Speaker 1: pay for another date and she leaves the laptop at home,

184
00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:38,959
Speaker 1: would you consider another day with her or no, that

185
00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:40,480
Speaker 1: was just poor judgment, you know.

186
00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:42,880
Speaker 4: I mean, at this point, it's exactly like you said.

187
00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:45,720
Speaker 4: I felt like it was very bad first impression, and

188
00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:48,080
Speaker 4: I think it's just going to be something else every time.

189
00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:50,920
Speaker 4: So no, I'm not I'm not interested, Kennedy.

190
00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:53,280
Speaker 1: I mean, I understand you're a busy person, but if

191
00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:55,760
Speaker 1: the meetings have five thirty, just once you meet at six?

192
00:08:56,640 --> 00:08:59,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, like I said, I just do my

193
00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:02,920
Speaker 2: schedule extremely busy, and there's there's just like a lot

194
00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:05,400
Speaker 2: going on, so a limited amount of time.

195
00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:08,160
Speaker 1: Maybe this whole date should have been over Zoom. Maybe

196
00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:10,079
Speaker 1: you're too busy to date, you know, maybe you need

197
00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:12,000
Speaker 1: to focus on your career right now. I don't know.

198
00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:14,160
Speaker 1: I mean, maybe maybe you don't have enough time. You're

199
00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:15,400
Speaker 1: a very important salesperson.

200
00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:18,240
Speaker 2: I mean, I have a lot on my plate and.

201
00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:20,520
Speaker 1: Okay, I don't know. It sounds like you're on a

202
00:09:20,559 --> 00:09:26,080
Speaker 1: zoom call with us right now. I'm sorry. Are you

203
