Starting point is 00:01:16 But Am I Wrong? Starring two people who have not once ever ever ever ever ever been wrong ever ever ever ever never ever and on today's episode who knows maybe that'll change maybe you'll be wrong actually last week or a week before last people we got a 50 50 was no it was actually less 60 30 i don't remember that's not 100 megan 60 30 is not 100 it's been undecided i don't know we have whatever but uh yeah we had an unpopular thoughts last week so who knows it could be maybe we're gonna be totally wrong this week i don't
Starting point is 00:01:56 think so because we have perfect track records and when we're not sure we never stand by something 100 unless we're 100 sure we gave so many caveats we gave so much so much like nuance and all that and like that's because we love our 100 record i'm not trying to put i'm not about to risk that i'm not about to put my life on the line hypothetically because for me it is always that serious so we have three different segments in the show we'll explain each one of them before we get into it so we don't overwhelm you with information but what you need to know is that yes we love when you just listen but we love when you participate and you can participate by nominating things for us to talk about in the episodes but most importantly you can participate
Starting point is 00:02:38 by voting on who you think was wrong in each of our segments we put stories over on instagram and we do them in a highlight as well and their polls so you can vote who you think was wrong and then we love when you respond with why you voted the way you did your thoughts and feelings sometimes people even reply with like their live reaction like being like literally just listening to this right now the votes aren't even up like i have to tell you what i think about this or this reminds me so much of this and we love hearing from you and then we read all of those the results as well as your messages on our tuesday episode called see you next tuesday and sometimes we have updates from people who have like written in or being like oh my god this is me this is how i feel now
Starting point is 00:03:17 or whatever so um it's i wouldn't skip you it's a good time and sometimes people like catch nuances that we didn't or they vote in totally different ways and sometimes people are really funny and hilarious and lovely sure that's what we've got for you our first segment is what am i wrong where we pitch to the other person and to all of you a circumstance or situation we found ourselves in that we want to know if we're in the wrong about or it can be a hot take or a rant or a lukewarm take okay um you're up first for our first segment called but am i wrong and you just explained what it is so go megan go my hot take people are talking about eggs eggs twelve dollars a dozen twenty dollars a dozen thirty dollars a dozen we're hearing left right and center
Starting point is 00:04:12 how expensive eggs are how are we going to afford eggs how are people going to be able to continue to be buying eggs and i pose the question maybe we should just stop eating right now bird flu is going around and while trump promised all of you that he was going to lower egg prices on day one and that clearly and obviously didn't happen maybe we should also be asking ourselves why are the eggs so expensive right now and maybe the aspects of the fact that we have closed down so many do you still call them poultry farms if they're not being killed so many farms that are producing these eggs because yeah maybe maybe the the supply chain shortage issue stemming from incredibly easily transmissible virus maybe we shouldn't be consuming eggs in the same way
Starting point is 00:05:11 because i keep seeing people being like i go through two dozen eggs a week i can't keep up with this two dozen i think maybe you shouldn't keep up with it hold on are they a professional baker no are they a gym person a gym rat i i don't know it was on reddit but people have a family of 24 and each person is getting one egg i think if you are going if you are eating eggs every day and you're eating if you are eating because a lot of people have a three egg omelet and then we'll have a hard-boiled egg as a snack in a day that's four eggs a day i don't think we have a price of eggs problem i think you have i think you might have an egg problem i think we might need to cut back on the egg and i'm also just marveling at how people can
Starting point is 00:05:59 eat eggs like that because for me i can have an egg every couple every year and a half and then i go that's disgusting i can't have that again eggs are exponentially exponentially disgusting everybody talks about how let me eat this egg before i realize it's an egg or i'm just eating this to eat it and i agree i because i do eat a lot of eggs i'm not preparing them i have a meal delivery service and the breakfasts that they have have a lot of eggs in them and i'm eating them because i'm not cooking it and i'm just shoving in my mouth eggs are disgusting and for some reason they've become a breakfast staple and there are other forms of protein out there i i would love to encourage people to look into those other forms of protein because i hate to break it to you the
Starting point is 00:06:52 price of eggs is actually not the greatest issue here it is the bird flu and that is the reason why the egg prices are so extreme and so to view that as like uh well he's gonna get the like you know the prices have got to be down the price has got to get down or like well the only the only reason why he can't get the prices down is because they had to shut down all these farms and i go finish the sentence why why was the farm shut down the bird flu they're also shut down because he's pulled funding no but even before that the reason why the prices of eggs went up before he was in office like that's the reason why he has no control over making them lower because they this this was already set so i think that we can complain about the price of eggs all day long
Starting point is 00:07:38 and i will and i'm not telling anyone to stop making the jokes of being like the prices were gonna egg prices gonna be whatever i do think a gas price one is tends to be funnier but i think i'm fine with making the jokes about the eggs but i need us to do a one step further digging after the joke and i i need us to implore other options for protein because yes eggs have a lot of protein but it's not like such a crazy huge amount that you're only eating one you're usually needing to stack a good amount and the risk just too much i just need i need a little less and if you are still skeptical about it it's time for you to do a re-watch of one of my favorite movies contagion yeah yeah or have your own little home farm my neighbors have chickens that's lovely
Starting point is 00:08:27 they have the cutest little eggs too they're so little adorable wonderful and i'm not anti-egg but i am anti going into debt over something that is expensive because it's risky you know the same or coveted after in that way you know it's not like it's hard to get because they're trying to stop it because it might not be the safest thing ever so like just like the same way right now i don't think it's a good time to pick up a cocaine habit i don't think it's a good time to pick up an egg habit is there ever a good time to pick up a cocaine habit well it's certainly there's a bad time and it's and it's when fentanyl's there that's the bad time i don't think they're ever necessarily a good time but there is their worst time and it's the worst time yeah you're not wrong
Starting point is 00:09:14 because the same thing with eggs your cholesterol will spike regardless but right now we're facing something a little more acutely uh dangerous and that's not just your bank account you're not wrong thank you mine is men say less moving on they get on my fucking nerves i hate all of them even the ones i love i hate them sometimes i told y'all about how when i went to that coffee shop that man was just like oh you go a big purse i'm like okay i went to the movies last friday and this man was like i had already walked past him and he goes hey i should have kept walking but i thought maybe i dropped something and he goes i like your skin and i said he wants to wear it ew okay i literally go okay and he goes yeah it's nice and i said okay he had nothing else to say so then i
Starting point is 00:10:13 kept walking and then this has nothing to do with me personally but no one needed to hear this chad johnson aka chad ochocinco was on steven a smith steven a smith as in general hospital star slash thanks for clarifying yeah slash uh commentary sports commentary person who gets on my nerves who i will be returning to and but are they wrong he was on his show and he was saying that he was having chad was saying that he was having sex with a woman and she goes put it in deeper and he was like he had bottomed out and so then he made the decision to have penile surgery and they're saying it went from three inches to 11 inches that's too much dick no one is going from 3 to 11 inches without it breaking off that's medical malpractice they should get their
Starting point is 00:11:13 like like a no good doctor would be like yeah i'm gonna get also by the way if it's only men doing these surgeries i have another issue with that as well if you are someone who's having sex with women and a man is doing the surgery that i don't trust i don't i don't trust men to know if that's a good size or not yeah this there's options suspensory ligament release can typically add one to two inches penile implant can add one to three fat grafting can add less than one inch so there's no way he went from three to 11 inches well because you can't like not to be gross but like the thing that is like the most important for those kinds any kind of like surgery or implant or whatever is like blood flow and for that like you're not gonna be a like you can't push it out
Starting point is 00:12:03 that much blood like that's just like your dick's gonna turn it's gonna like die like you sometimes they won't even like add and like if you have like a finger that's like cut off if they've like anything with arteries or whatever that they're not gonna reattach a finger because they're not therefore you're not gonna get enough blood flow to it and like your penis that is blood flow that's not just keeping it alive and it like then makes it erect so like yeah so he's got a bike pump attached to it constantly i would assume or he's maybe he's got a little strap on and that's fine but stop lying i do believe more of the three inches if you started at three inches maybe they added on two inches and now he it's
Starting point is 00:12:46 five inches long but a totally fine penis length and i respect him coming out and saying it's three inches that i believe you now yes good on that that's not like let's okay then let's cut the didn't go to 11 inches there's no way not that that is think of science that's like think of when you were little and you were playing with play-doh and you had a smaller mound and then you put more on it just fell over that would be criminal that doctor would be jailed you had gender affirming surgery which let's call it what it is why are we telling the story he wants you to know how big it is i don't want to know there's nothing i did think he used to be handsome before he started talking all the time and he started talking and i was just like
Starting point is 00:13:39 shut up i never want to hear you talk again and i don't know why this came across my feet you're not wrong i have to say any man who has to tell you how big his dick is unprompted does not have a big dick i also don't think the current penis is 11 inches i do think there's a cap kind of like um that like shin surgery to make you taller i think they can only do two inches but i might be wrong but as somebody who has had sex with someone medical advancements have happened in the world as someone who has had sex with someone who had a a freak of a dick like it like it was a burden on his life and i'm not and not kidding he did a smart water bottle yeah it was the size of a smart water bottle like it was huge and he had i was one of two people he had
Starting point is 00:14:34 had ever had like he did not was not able to sleep around like it was a lot and when he told me he like warned me beforehand and was like we can just like fool around like if you know if it's too much like it's okay like you know i've i know i've gotten it before like it's and i was like oh yeah you're so big and then i was like holy shit pass the bong in the wall and the handle i need i need to get a little more ready for this so like i know how men with huge dicks like that behave this man did not walk around talking about how having like having that a massive day like that's it's not a thing so i think this man probably went from a two and a half to five and i think he thinks it it looks really big and i bet he has i bet he has a tiny little iphone so people get
Starting point is 00:15:21 confused and i bet he lives in a tiny little house so people think like oh everything's so big if you're gonna be an advocate tell the truth that's all for people being like being very bold about what's going on in their lives being very outspoken like approaching life but like you're lying you're lying then don't talk about it like yes if you can't talk like i think it's the same thing as like saying that you went to turkey to get a hair transplant for preventative measures because you had a full head of hair and it's like that's not how it works no that's like not also how science works and this is then misleading to people who think that then they need to have that level to get it done yep i have a friend and he got it done he was very
Starting point is 00:16:04 you know like very open about it and i respect all i respect i mean i don't respect all men this was a this was a this is a gay man so it's you know he gets a lot more gay man than yes but i have one ounce of more respect for like men that go to that lady that does the toupees and they don't hide their face they're being truthful about what's happening yeah and you know what that's the real solution to the male loneliness epidemic if you were slanging around the greatest cock of all time and you had such a great person and you were like you know riz off the chain just so like charismatic and wonderful and lovely you would not need to announce the size of your penis because you would already be fending off women you'd be like oh my
Starting point is 00:16:56 god i have so many so many people want to have sex with me all the time all this is telling me is that that you got this surgery and you you thought this is going to change how you felt about yourself and it didn't and so now you're like but okay maybe i should have just sent out a sub stack like like a i need to do a push notification to let people know i'm working with some new equipment and maybe then they'll like me you gotta like you dude come on thank you for sharing that you're welcome okay all right well we're gonna take a break when we get back we'll get into but are you wrong across canada in a volvo destination vancouver turn left to leave travel west through

Starting point is 00:18:51 callers right in with the circumstance uh that you are in that you would like to know if you are in the wrong about so it could be was i wrong for doing this would i be wrong if i did this we take both like past present and future decision making like you you can you can pick any of those tenses so submit it to but am i wrong pot of gmail.com please keep it under 300 words and we want you to say how old you are don't tell us your name it's anonymous don't tell us other people's names come up with fake names and if you come with fake statements you don't like we'll change um and give us as many details as possible and we'll do our best all right let's get into it first up am i 26 wrong for telling my in-laws to not comment on my toddler's body also i don't
Starting point is 00:19:46 think i am at all but i want you guys to validate me i don't know so my in-laws visited and my father-in-law looked at my toddler and said she was thinning out thinning out nicely and looking good what the fuck yeah i asked him not to make these comments because i've had my fair share of body image issues and i won't have men in her family especially just sit in front of her making comments like this i said this is a boundary i wasn't willing to discuss further and it must be respected i am positive regarding body talk with my daughters my in-laws were livid they then said they've always suspected i had a shitty childhood and that if i wanted to talk about shitty childhoods to talk to step mother-in-law because she had one too and hers actually made her a
Starting point is 00:20:23 stronger person. They also said they have feelings that I shouldn't, that they have feelings and that I shouldn't have hurt them. Literally, what the fuck? I told them when it comes to my kids, I'm going to hurt their feelings if I have to, and they need to respect my boundary and handle their feelings on their own because they're adults, LMAO. I hate them so much. This response was gaslighting the fuck out of me. They are truly so toxic. My husband hates them too, and I wish he'd handle them because I'm close to popping off. My husband is white, so is his family. I am a black woman and i feel like they just think these old dicks believe they don't have to fucking respect me this behavior isn't surprising and i wish my man would step up so i didn't have to am i
Starting point is 00:20:58 overreacting am i wrong for wanting to go no contact because the gaslighting is real uh this is this is an instance where i've been like you will you would like to talk about let's step out so i would have i would have gotten violent away from my child yeah this is so many levels of fucked up to me i think these comments are not only horrible in terms of just talking about anybody else's body i think they're alarming and talking about a toddler's body i would not trust them to be with her let alone alone with her but like even if i'm there like no i had she's no longer with us she's definitely looking up at us but i had a grandmother one of them the other one so lovely who was oh my god god she was she just used to call me fat as like a little like all the
Starting point is 00:21:54 time as a little kid she'd like smack my stomach and like i was i'm i got tall in middle school and if anyone is specifically women like if you got tall in middle school or high school like you know you you gain you put you put on weight in a very short amount of time that like you you're not like a skinny lanky kid like you put on weight because your body's gearing up to like shoot shoot up and the part that like and even if it wasn't that but like for me that aspect of it was like that comes from that side of the family so like she knew that all of her kids were like like she knew that everybody's like the boys are well over six feet tall like all of them like everybody's tall she knows that and so to insist on saying that like I I remember like yeah she said something
Starting point is 00:22:41 about me wearing like she didn't want me to wear a bikini and I'm like seven didn't want me to wear a bikini to her condo pool because i looked fat and she kept saying and then i had someone else who defended me saying don't worry you'll grow out of being chunky and then insisted i wear it to kind of stick it to my grandma and like which both of those are exactly wrong and so that all i'm saying is that like that behavior the only way that you can address that behavior is cutting it off you cannot respond to that behavior or correct that behavior when there's a victim involved and your kid is there like that's what i like this is not there is no salvaging that because like she cannot be the example of like you're gonna do better this is a teaching moment
Starting point is 00:23:27 because like it involves her so it's not a teaching moment and so that for me you're not wrong at all for cutting them off that i think is the only solution because if someone is going to be beyond the fact that like this is fucking perverted but like deeply inappropriate body wise that is a learning curve they're not going to suddenly just know how to snap out of it and it is not your daughter's responsibility to like be the guinea pig to get them to stop and as someone who was that didn't help and also when you can tolerate even a little bit of that or tolerate it in a way to like communicate and send a message very rarely is that actually what you're doing and more of it is like it's still very centered around the body it's still very centered
Starting point is 00:24:11 around all of that and if your husband hates them too they gotta get out and like saying that a toddler's like looking it's just that's disgusting to me it is absolutely disgusting i've had to deal with this from a family member saying the same things about other children in my family about their body parts and I have cussed them the fuck out and they got mad and guess what they did it again and they I cussed them out again and then other people started joining in as well so I say that not just you but your husband needs to be vigilant about not accepting this and you're not overreacting you're not wrong you're not wrong for wanting to go no contact because these people don't respect you don't respect your child don't respect their their actual child too so um fuck
Starting point is 00:25:10 them i want to bitch slap them like one open hand and then one in the back of my hand and um i hope that you're able to get away and things get better yeah and if they want to down the line prove how much they've changed they can have a temporary trial relationship with you and your husband not with the kid yeah because that stuff sticks with kids you know and like there were adults in my life who made comments about other family members well they made comments about everybody's body but like specifically as a kid hearing how they would talk about other kids bodies in a derogatory way and that put a lot of morality on bodies as well as putting blame on people's income status their their education or their quote-unquote lack of it like basically
Starting point is 00:26:07 like that the people who raised those kids were unintelligent and poor so of course this is what their kid would and then it's just like this sad and pity pitiful thing and i saw how that affected that kid in a way that was we were getting very similar comments from different people like from one person is saying this but like i'm not we did not have that same grandma but i could see how that affected them and their self-esteem because like you said like they essentially just like then was like of course you had a bad childhood so like when you tie that to like all these other things it creates a complex and when people say shit like that i'm like and you have something that people study in medical school for psychology this is if that's your immediate response i go
Starting point is 00:27:05 oh okay we've got some big things we're dealing up in our head and that's not something that uh that's not a group project you can do that on your own i would be i would oh my god curb stomp like roundhouse kid i would have gotten so and yeah be done be done and your daughter will thank you by the like will 100 and so by the time that like if she if they eventually want to have a relationship you make hey grandma and grandpa are kind of creepy and fat phobic i want you to know that like but i think if a kid is not young enough to understand what that means or to hear that i don't think they're they shouldn't have a relationship all right next one am i wrong for falling for a guy that my friend liked and i just happened to hit it off with marshall and i
Starting point is 00:27:52 26 person shut the fuck up you picked the fake name marshall babe babe oh i know this is gonna to be from that show yeah it's uh how i met your mother is marshall i'm sorry is there is mark i don't know who plays marshall actually doesn't really matter giant tall man i don't know that anyone's hot in that show like that's not my kind there's a reason why i haven't watched that show those men also look all freakily hairless which i don't like have you seen the show like how should i feel about marshall marshall's just like the tall doofy guy but marshall and robin weren't in a relationship so i'm very concerned about this as we continue reading at least i don't think i've i've seen episodes on and off i never seen it all the way on like sat through it was a
Starting point is 00:28:43 point where this show would just be on tv but i don't know if these people go together imagine if this was just like this person has no idea and they just like love these names yeah because marshall with was with the girl from buffy so i don't know who got fucked with the flute yeah so i don't know why you're putting these two people in this conversation but here we go in the show i don't think they did i don't know i should ask mox mox watch the show and i'll never let him live it down marshall and the other girl were together almost all of the show anyway marshall and i 26 first met new york for robin's birthday robin is very insecure and has the oh i guess you're in in the story you are who marshall's within the show i think lily well i recently just
Starting point is 00:29:34 watched a clip of jason siegel talking about recording a scene about his dad dying and i think her name is that's not what the actress's name is is it no okay so marshall is jason siegel's character okay here we go again it is lily okay so i'm guessing you're lily then here we go marshall and i 26 first met in new york for robin's birthday 25 robin is very insecure and has not been with the guy before but has crushes and doesn't act on them i've been privy to four in the last year i knew that robin had a crush on marshall and i was in full support robin invited him in hopes of getting him to fall for her he was excited to have a reason to go back to new york and see his bff brother and go to her birthday he thought that they were friends
Starting point is 00:30:24 didn't respond often slash acting away other than a friend i also flew in we didn't do anything that weekend just got to know each other and neither of us thought it would progress i didn't tell robin right away i thought he and i were just friends when we realized we'd fallen for each other i needed to tell her i stopped responding to our group chat anytime she talked about him slash feeling the delulu of him liking her there weren't any signs and she wouldn't listen to that now she's mad at me saying i shouldn't have pursued him he pursued me i'm mad but i know her feelings are valid because it's a shitty thing i don't know what else i could have done if i told her and then hated marshall right after i had to tell her before we hung out these next
Starting point is 00:31:14 two weekends i felt so guilty don't think i'm going anymore more than happy to send screenshots of the post facetime combo but i don't know what to do now am i wrong here i think i got it all i think telling your friend that you're dating somebody while you know that they actively have a crush on them is wrong whether you hit it off or not especially since you said that she usually has like several crushes on guys and never acts on it maybe wait until after that she moves on to the next crush i know that you can't like i mean you can't control your feelings but like if this is somebody that you really hit it off with and you like like you don't want to dating his heart you don't want to pass up that opportunity but doing something when you know your friend likes
Starting point is 00:32:05 somebody i think that is wrong so i don't disagree with like that statement like i don't disagree with that on paper i do and i'm definitely being biased and taking my own judgment coloring this in but like when you've had one of those friends who has a crush on like every guy who like looks in her direction yeah but like and specifically like has not shown interest but like just exists and like views it as like as my husband's most important thing ever and like knowing that like there are so many of them and these guys are not are fundamentally like not interested and like there's just a dime like just crush after crush after crush after crush that like i can see why you'd be like there there's the you're not even gonna like because
Starting point is 00:32:57 it doesn't usually she never acts on it so she's not ever able to find out if these guys are interested so therefore she can always have claim on them because then it would be your responsibility to make hey he's not interested and i don't think that's a fair position to put you in and i also don't think like like that's fair to him like i don't think you need you should say that at all he doesn't even know that she has a crush on him yeah so i think that like this unfortunately kind of is like a lose-lose like any way you slice it because she's setting it up to like stake claim on everyone yeah it's she's calling dibs essentially that infinitely and these are my like least favorite kind of like delusional people because like i think it's fine
Starting point is 00:33:39 if you have a lot of crushes like i've had i lots of friends have like a lot of crushes but like the best kinds of friends in this instance are the friends were either like i just saw my husband libras i just saw my husband walking down the street and then a week later you're like wait did you guys talk and you're i have no idea who you're talking about like that it's like where it's like fast quick burn love it hate it don't know about it anymore can't remember their name that's fine i love that that's fun and then the other ones are someone who has a lot of crushes but the same way that they can build a crush they can throw it away just as quickly and they love crushes for everybody so they want to share their crushes and being like oh my god no you'd even
Starting point is 00:34:13 better like and they can shut it off so quick i've had friends like that like i had my first kiss with a guy like that that my friend like was like she really liked him and she was like you can like we were at a mutual friend's house and was like you can like any of these boys because two different high school except for this one that's when i that's when i have a crush on and i was like okay and we get there and like i was like this guy's really cute and it was the only time in my life besides logan hunsberger that i liked a blonde man and i was like this is crazy he's very cute and i remember like we were talking for a long period of time and then i hadn't had a chance to talk to my friend and i was like oh i've been like i've been talking to this guy a lot like
Starting point is 00:34:45 that's not good because she really likes him the second we got off the trampoline because of course it's high school we're hanging on a trampoline i like went to the bathroom and like grabbed her along with me and before i could even get the words out she goes i'm over him i love him for you he's perfect like that's the level of kinds of crushes but i've also had the friends who are exactly like this and it is debilitating and exhausting because they also have a they will not admit they're insecure and they have like a deep false sense of overconfidence but because they don't actually ever pursue anyone they never have to get brought back down to reality so i think melissa's not i think melissa's right like you're not wrong i mean you you're wrong in i
Starting point is 00:35:24 think the whole in practice like the whole theory of this like i think that it's like the wrong move but i don't know what the right move is with this person because i think the only way that she would be happy is if if he pursued you and you shut him down that's i think like the only way that she'd be happy so it's kind of like you weigh those options but i think fundamentally the best way to do it is to have gotten ahead of it and not wait it until like oh let's see if it works or see if what so don't go wait so this is before the birth i'm confused about where where we're going at this point i thought they met at the visit i think they're just going to visit oh okay you don't go this i think is the end of the friendship and that needs to be okay
Starting point is 00:36:12 sorry i couldn't deal with this at 25 like the most i put up with these friends was like late 20s of the earliest and that was like someone i wasn't even actually that that wasn't even when i was friends that that was like friend of a friend and i was like i can't be in a room with her anymore she drives me so fucking crazy for this exact reason yep i have been and i say like you were wrong but i've also been the person that has done that i've been you i've done it too yeah so sometimes there's like you once a certain point you realize like if i don't it this is this is going to be never ending even if this person like finds some whatever like it will be truly never ending so either i have to die i'm never gonna get any or i'm gonna have to step on
Starting point is 00:36:58 some toes because she's got ursula tentacles around every man in a the entire borough like that's crazy all right well we're gonna take a break when we get back we'll get into but are they room in toronto every arrival is a statement and nothing says it better than this cadillac optic was the number one selling luxury ev in canada for 2025 find your rhythm across a seamless 33 inch display and an immersive 19 speaker akg surround audio system this city demands agility and Optic delivers with precision to make every drive extraordinary.

Starting point is 00:37:44 Luxury sales claim based on S&P Global Mobility Canadian New Vehicle total registrations for calendar year 2025 for the Cadillac definition of luxury. Going on vacation? We're here for it. With kids? Who turn the backseat into a courtroom drama over whose tablet is louder, whose charger is faster, and why watching the same cartoon for the hundredth time is a human right?
Starting point is 00:38:05 Yep, we totally have vehicles to handle that. Because whether it's a road trip or a business trip, where your flight's delayed, your phone's at 2%, and your dinner is whatever is open, yep, here for that too. Enterprise, we're here for it. And we're back. And it's time for But Are They Wrong?
Starting point is 00:38:33 that's when we pick somebody in the world in pop culture and the zeitgeist that has done something stupid and we point at them and laugh oh who you got megan i would like to nominate lg like the phone company yeah but you know what they also make good they make they make a lot of things they make refrigerators washing the machines you know what i have to say as of right out i have not seen anything good that samsung and lg have made that didn't start as phones so i think they should stick with the phones but they also make ovens and uh i think this headline tells it all lg is sending free stickers to 500 000 customers who bought its recalled stove that caused 28 house fires uh-huh what are these stickers supposed to do get ready get ready
Starting point is 00:39:28 so it caused uh 28 house fires several injuries and also multiple pets died in this they aren't receiving refunds or exchanges they're receiving stickers so the consumer product safety commission said in alert that it received 86 reports of unintentional activation because of the front mounted knobs from humans and pets that can pose as a as a fire hazard on the lg slide and ranges and freestanding ranges and uh customers who responded on LG's website so take in mind this is that kind of recall this is not you're getting one of those calls and someone's showing up at your house which they do for certain things this should be one of them because it does not just affect you it also affects your neighbors it affects everyone like that's the kind of they
Starting point is 00:40:19 need to be tracking your phone number down over and over and over and over and over again you didn't get that you need to someone needs to hire people who used to work at planned parenthood to give you calls about your results and things of being like we need to talk to you that or the bots of being like someone wants we'd like to talk about your house insurance so um once they filled all that out i would have assumed i was getting a refund or they were exchanging for a new part or my car right now has an item on recall that they're i'm going to bring into the shop too and they'll fix it there we go but no instead it is a sticker that is the most condescending thing i've ever heard it has uh instructions on it with a little reminder that says make sure to push the
Starting point is 00:40:56 lock button so that will hopefully prevent this from unintentionally going off so uh for anyone who might be affected by this just an fyi they were sold at best by costco and home depot between 2015 and 2025 so yesterday also 10 years and you're just figuring like just now uh and the recall covers about two dozen specific models and they also say regardless of the sticker that they uh they consumers should be keeping their children and pets away from the knobs and always check the knobs to ensure they're off before leaving your home and to that i say can you imagine if someone with ocd got this and like the meticulous like every anyone would check but like when you have like a you're compulsive to checking that that's fucking unacceptable that a sticker is the
Starting point is 00:41:48 solution unacceptable so uh several incidents involving the ranges cause extensive property damage totaling in more than 340 000 and three fires that resulted in pet deaths um and they said in a comment that it's reminding customers about our unique safety function called a lockout or control lock available on lg electric ranges with front mounted knobs since 2015 we are proud of the patent in lg in invention specifically designed to enhance the safety of lg ranges and i have to say is it a wonderful advancement if a you need a sticker to remind it doesn't automatically engage and then also not every stove needs this terrifying nope yeah that's scary i haven't heard one thing about it i've been on top of recalls oh you're always on top of recalls yeah
Starting point is 00:42:32 uh so i will add that to my list of things to do you have an outline people i don't oh thank god but like i had to take pictures of like my curling iron unplugged when i leave the house to like make sure that i i did and like that's why i have a lot of things on alexa switches because i can literally check and see if it's off yeah and i like i check all of the windows and doors before i go to bed and like i go back and check the oven like the stove and the oven to make sure it's not on all the time even on days where i'm like did leave it on one time gonna freak the fuck out of me i have left the front door open i have left my keys in the door i've left my car door open not even just unlocked like i have left i've left the stove i've left the
Starting point is 00:43:18 like flame on the burner i have left the gas on the burner not realizing i have left the oven on overnight like i've done all of that stuff and like this to me is like some of the adhd's like worst fucking nightmare because like i am a hazard you can't sell me a hazard and then tell me that i am the quality control and i have to like that's not gonna fucking happen like that's just no no no no i need the products to work so well that the error needs to be on me using it poorly because that's already gonna happen but it cannot be like i have to make up for faulty manufacturing so i feel so bad for people who've gotten this In Toronto, every arrival is a statement, and nothing says it better than this.

Starting point is 00:45:27 slash sports commentator slash podcaster he came out and said that if he were married to Serena he would get a divorce because she's clearly not over her ex and then when faced with in case you don't know and you're living under a rock or you're not from here and you didn't watch the Super Bowl but Kendrick Lamar performed at the Super Bowl and he had Serena there and she was seawalking and everybody went crazy and so Serena was dating Drake at one point and so Stephen A Smith said this and also I do want to point out that this song is specifically about Drake being a loser and a pedophile and so steven a smith is always popping off out at the mouth about some dumb shit and including this doubling down first of all this shows that how insecure you are
Starting point is 00:46:32 um and second serena herself said that it had nothing to do with drake she didn't say his name but on her own instagram she said or her own tiktok she said when kendrick and team called and was like we've been trying to do something forever what about this we love your quip quip walk at the olympics after you won the gold medal i'm like super bowl are you serious when in the world would i ever be able to dance at the super bowl never let's do it i knew my winning dance after the olympics would pay off one day end of story she didn't mention that name and the song also Kendrick does say better not speak on Serena they're both from Compton and then Serena's actual husband you know the one that she's actually married to not some hypothetical thing that
Starting point is 00:47:26 Stephen A Smith came up with he said some of y'all have no idea how criticized Serena was for this same dance at Wimbledon 13 years ago and it shows this is bigger than the music so serena was very much criticized basically people were like she was behaving together at the at the olympics after winning so i just think this is deeply rich coming from a man with i don't even know if you can call that a hairline anymore uh who is unmarried has never been married and uh has two children it's just you nobody even wants to marry you no so how are you going to get a divorce from somebody yeah nobody wants to even marry i hate to break it to you but not being married i mean getting divorced you have to you have to get married to
Starting point is 00:48:27 be divorced and you had an engagement that got broken off and just like kendrick said better not speak on serena so i feel like you might be his next target man who wears many hats mostly because he doesn't have any hair and also because i'm sure he needs to he's trying to make enough money do you know what how much money serena has you know how much money her husband has and her husband is constantly defending her and even if this was about drake drake always has her fucking name in his mouth and it's sung in nothing's into something drake touches on the feelings of an ex moving on without any final resolution and he was mad when serena alexis got married in 2017 then you diss her and her husband saying sidebar serena your husband is a groupie he
Starting point is 00:49:26 claimed we don't got a problem but no boo it's like you coming for sushi so stupid but also i want my husband to be my groupie to clown on a guy of being like you like your girl too much your wife that you have children with oh you're a loser this is a man who's going to talk about how he got his heart broken at 13 and he's never been able to heal from that and i'm like okay so you you hate your mom you hate you have so many issues with women that at this point like fellas is it gay to kiss your wife like we're getting to that level of it and it's crazy and um i did look up that steven cited when his sister asked him like whatever happened with that engagement and he like snapped her i'm like whatever and like got mad at her and like mentioned something
Starting point is 00:50:16 about money all i'm hearing is bitter and broke that is all i'm hearing and specifically to go after there's not a bone in serena's body that we have ever seen as like civilians especially on that stage that gave anything other than joy that radiated anything other than like passion and joy and like that was she was having fun she was having a blast she got a dance instructor to help her craft it like she was having fun but to go to finish off what i was just saying about uh that song and then alexis um responded the reason i stay winning is because i'm relentless about being the absolute best at whatever i do including being the best groupie for my wife and daughter and then in 2024 he reveals that too good was about serena
Starting point is 00:51:05 and a lot of people had thought it was about rihanna who which is weird because they were dating too he reveals to his mom that it's about serena and she responded i gathered that which means that he's just simping about serena at home to his mommy if anyone needs to pull their ass out of 2014 it's it's it's aubrey like he is like living so deeply in like 2014 2016 Serena's got all of her new ventures she's having fun she's doing all of this stuff and BBL Drizzy the only
Starting point is 00:51:43 improvements actually not improvements because that's subjective and I think it's actually not true the only changes he's made in his the only future steps he's taken have been body modifications like that's it I just thought like he's refusing like he's that's Steve is like facing the
Starting point is 00:51:59 backlash and he's like refusing to yeah that's what I was saying he doubled down on me It's giving Pearl, that TikTok girl who like just talks out like men aren't going to marry you. No one's marrying you because you're repulsive. You're horrible. Like to have to be the authority on something that you have quite literally never experienced is so just quintessential man. Yep.
