1
00:00:00,640 --> 00:00:03,400
Speaker 1: Caitlin's Entertainment Report and he's on the Fread Show.

2
00:00:03,800 --> 00:00:06,960
Speaker 2: Sean Mendez spoke to fans yesterday in between songs at

3
00:00:07,080 --> 00:00:09,960
Speaker 2: Red Brox Amphitheater in Colorado, and remember I told you

4
00:00:10,080 --> 00:00:13,560
Speaker 2: that he's been performing his upcoming single, The Mountain, and

5
00:00:14,080 --> 00:00:18,760
Speaker 2: that song talks about his sexuality, all the questions about.

6
00:00:18,480 --> 00:00:19,919
Speaker 3: It, you know, all that good stuff.

7
00:00:20,280 --> 00:00:24,440
Speaker 2: And a fan shared a video on TikTok where it's long,

8
00:00:25,040 --> 00:00:27,200
Speaker 2: but he basically says that he's still figuring it out.

9
00:00:27,640 --> 00:00:30,080
Speaker 2: So in part, he said, the real truth about my

10
00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:32,680
Speaker 2: life and sexuality is that, man, I'm just figuring it

11
00:00:32,720 --> 00:00:33,440
Speaker 2: out like everyone.

12
00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:36,440
Speaker 3: I don't really know sometimes and I know other times.

13
00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:38,199
Speaker 2: And it feels really scary because we live in a

14
00:00:38,240 --> 00:00:40,599
Speaker 2: society that has a lot to say about that. I'm

15
00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:42,800
Speaker 2: trying to be really brave and just allow myself to

16
00:00:42,840 --> 00:00:44,600
Speaker 2: be a human and feel things.

17
00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:46,760
Speaker 3: And that's all I really want to say about that

18
00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:47,320
Speaker 3: right now.

19
00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:50,400
Speaker 2: I mean proud of him, proud of him, and I

20
00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:53,520
Speaker 2: also think everyone should lay off like he's saying he's

21
00:00:53,560 --> 00:00:57,160
Speaker 2: confused or he's figuring it out, So I think layoff

22
00:00:57,200 --> 00:01:00,160
Speaker 2: of old Sean. And it was a long thing, so

23
00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:01,320
Speaker 2: you know, we can post it if you want to

24
00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:03,680
Speaker 2: see the full thing. By the way, he has been

25
00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:07,440
Speaker 2: performing new music from his forthcoming self tiled titled LP,

26
00:01:07,959 --> 00:01:10,400
Speaker 2: out November fifteenth. And we need some good Sean songs.

27
00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:11,920
Speaker 2: I feel like we haven't had a good one in

28
00:01:11,959 --> 00:01:12,360
Speaker 2: a minute.

29
00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:14,760
Speaker 4: So good for him. That's pretty vulnerable, ye, different, it's

30
00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:17,520
Speaker 4: very vulnerable. Actually yeah, And it's nobody's business, really.

31
00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:19,640
Speaker 2: Really, and and he also talked about how like, at

32
00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:21,800
Speaker 2: the time when people were really going heavy, he had

33
00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:24,880
Speaker 2: friends who were closeted, and so he felt really like,

34
00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:27,800
Speaker 2: how do I answer this, Because you want to say, Okay,

35
00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:30,520
Speaker 2: I'm not gay, but if I was, it's okay. You know,

36
00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:32,440
Speaker 2: you want to make everyone feel like it's okay to

37
00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:34,080
Speaker 2: be gay even if you're I know. So he said

38
00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:36,920
Speaker 2: it was like very nuanced, but he did kind of

39
00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:39,480
Speaker 2: get more vulnerable, I feel like than he ever has.

40
00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:41,319
Speaker 4: So Jason and I have talked about this before. It's

41
00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:44,959
Speaker 4: like I feel bad for people who it's like, just

42
00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:46,959
Speaker 4: say it, just say you're bye, just say it right.

43
00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:48,800
Speaker 4: As a straight guy who's always known I was straight,

44
00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:51,200
Speaker 4: it's like, just say it, and then no one and

45
00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:54,000
Speaker 4: then all this ends, right, No, people stop poking around

46
00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:56,680
Speaker 4: and people stop, you know, asking you the question, and

47
00:01:56,720 --> 00:01:59,040
Speaker 4: people stopped wondering. You know, it was like these closeted

48
00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:02,320
Speaker 4: gay men in the media. You know, there are a

49
00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:06,160
Speaker 4: lot of who are legedly calostive gay man and they

50
00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:08,360
Speaker 4: won't come out and say it because it's like, just

51
00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:10,640
Speaker 4: say it because now no one said, this is no secret.

52
00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:12,560
Speaker 1: But it's just not that simple, right.

53
00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:15,880
Speaker 5: And I also think too, especially with like bisexual men,

54
00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:20,040
Speaker 5: that they continue to get like you know, the sigma

55
00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:23,280
Speaker 5: and you know, the prejudice and whatnot. So it's really

56
00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:25,320
Speaker 5: sad because they want everyone to just live there. Tight

57
00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:27,720
Speaker 5: that's what I'm That's where I'm coming from. But like, yeah,

58
00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:29,519
Speaker 5: I was having this conversation with someone who's kind of

59
00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:31,280
Speaker 5: high up in media, and I said, why doesn't so

60
00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:32,960
Speaker 5: and so just come out. It's like so and so

61
00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:34,760
Speaker 5: is not going to come out because so and so

62
00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:38,760
Speaker 5: because we still live in a country where where if

63
00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:41,040
Speaker 5: this person wants to appeal to Middle America, it ain't

64
00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:43,400
Speaker 5: gonna work. And that just blows my mind because I

65
00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:45,519
Speaker 5: in my circle, I don't know anybody who would feel

66
00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:47,919
Speaker 5: that way. But that doesn't mean that it's not everywhere.

67
00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:49,720
Speaker 3: Yeahmophobia is still it's.

68
00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:52,360
Speaker 4: So sad and so crazy, but because all I want

69
00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:54,440
Speaker 4: to do is live your truth, be who you are,

70
00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:57,360
Speaker 4: say it, and then all this speculation stops because you

71
00:02:57,400 --> 00:02:59,079
Speaker 4: know you've confronted it and now it's over and we

72
00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:00,520
Speaker 4: don't have these conversations anymore.

73
00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:01,480
Speaker 1: But it's just not that simple.

74
00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:04,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's the dream, but we're not there yet. Unfortunately.

75
00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:07,399
Speaker 2: Tom Brady pissed some people off while calling the Bill

76
00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:10,720
Speaker 2: Seahawks game on Fox Sports on Sunday. So The former

77
00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:14,120
Speaker 2: QB was discussing the growth of Bill's quarterback Josh Allen

78
00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:17,040
Speaker 2: when he said that the two time Pro bowler previously

79
00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:20,360
Speaker 2: played like a spaz before he became more controlled. He said,

80
00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:22,880
Speaker 2: sometimes he played like a spas, like a grade schooler

81
00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:26,000
Speaker 2: on a sugar high, but he's controlled the chaos now.

82
00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:29,280
Speaker 2: The term spas is a shortened term for the word spastick,

83
00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:33,080
Speaker 2: which means clumsy, stupid, or losing physical or emotional control.

84
00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:35,720
Speaker 2: People online pointed out that in some cases it is

85
00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:38,800
Speaker 2: a slur used for jokes about people with disabilities. One

86
00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:42,040
Speaker 2: person wrote, highly offensive to people who have physical disabilities

87
00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:45,000
Speaker 2: as well as their loved ones. Others defended Brady, saying

88
00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:47,440
Speaker 2: he very clearly meant no harm and he used the

89
00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:50,760
Speaker 2: word without realizing the ramifications.

90
00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:57,720
