Speaker 1 (00:01):
These are the radio blogs on the Fred Show. Okay,
like we're writing in our diaries, except we stayed them Aliine.
We call them blogs. Jason Brown take it away, Thank.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
You, dear blog.
Speaker 3 (00:12):
So, as we talked about yesterday, Fred and I were
in Vegas last weekend for our Heart Radio music festival,
and so obviously I had to fly there shout out Southwest,
but I had really bad plane seat neighbors both ways.
(00:33):
So I just want to make a PSA about what
not to do when you're sitting next to somebody. Okay,
because I very much like I have accepted my fate
that I am a window seater. So I get up
against the window, cross my arms, put my earbuds in,
and I tried to literally not move, like I don't
want to touch anyone. I don't want to inconvenience anyone.
I'd basically just like, you know, freeze myself.
Speaker 2 (00:55):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (00:56):
So this girl sits next to me on the way there,
we're halfway through the flight. Well, first off, she sits
down and puts both elbows on like each side.
Speaker 2 (01:06):
She's in the middle now of the arm rest, right,
So I.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
Was just like, okay, rum, but I will say if
you're in the middle seat. I think you probably can
stay claim to both arm right.
Speaker 2 (01:14):
Sure, which I'm fine because my arms are crossed.
Speaker 3 (01:16):
I'm very much like I don't want to touch anyone
or anything, so but you're right, I'm very dem very mindful.
Speaker 2 (01:22):
Okay, now where elbow is in my side?
Speaker 1 (01:24):
Right?
Speaker 3 (01:24):
But I'm like, okay, girl, like that's fine. You know
you're in the middle seat. That sucks, I get it.
Halfway through the flight, she taps me and she's like,
I want to take a picture out the window. Can
you like move for a second. So I'm like trying
to back up in my seat as far as humanly possible,
sucking in my stomach so that she can like reach
around me to take a picture. Then she decides that
(01:45):
she wants to put socks on, so takes her shoes
off and puts socks on. Then when we land, takes
the socks off to put the shoes back.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
On, right.
Speaker 3 (01:54):
So they are on for like an hour and a
half and I was like, wow, I can't wait to
get away from.
Speaker 2 (01:58):
You, right.
Speaker 3 (01:59):
So then on the way back, this couple sits next
to me again and I'm like okay, cool, And so
they're watching a movie on an iPad that they're sharing.
So they each have an earbud, right, so they're sharing
what having full on conversations, reactions and like belly laughing
(02:20):
to the point where people are turning around and like
looking at me, like what are your parents doing?
Speaker 2 (02:24):
Like that's like what it's giving.
Speaker 3 (02:26):
And so I was embarrassed, Like oh, like they were
literally like like that loud on a plane. Yes, so
just a couple of PSAs. Don't do any of that
stuff when you're you know, on a plane.
Speaker 1 (02:41):
Okay, Okay, that's it. Rant over, I'm with you, I agree,
I agree.
Speaker 3 (02:47):
Be quiet, yes, like don't I don't want don't talk
to me like I'm stressed out and it's just I
just want to get off, Like I don't want any
of this stuff.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
Why do you want an Eyeland again?
Speaker 3 (02:57):
Because I am afraid that people are gonna have to
ask me to move to go to the bathroom, and
so I don't want to like get I don't want
to like block anyone in that.
Speaker 1 (03:08):
I either want to make you move to take pictures
out the windows right exactly.
Speaker 3 (03:11):
I'm like, and I was on a wing, like what
have you been taking a picture of the wing of
the plane.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
Like I don't even understand you.
Speaker 3 (03:17):
All the time, I know, and you sit in the window. Yeah,
because I dehydrate myself. So I don't drink anything. Very
mind I'm very mindful of, very very cute, see very classy.
I don't drink anything twelve hours before a flight. Zero
liquid I.
Speaker 1 (03:31):
Have these days? Is are the window shades? Like people?
For some reason, I don't want to open the window shade.
Oh yeah, I kept close. Yes, you did the whole time. No,
it's not right. No, it's airplane. We can look out
the window, they asked you. It's already closed. It's a
claustrophobic environment as it is. We're already in a small
metal tube. Like, can we at least open the windows
(03:53):
so we can look outside and see what the hell's
going on? Like, wouldn't you like to know what phase
of flight we're in? If we're climbing, if we're cruising,
if the Grand Canyon you keep it dark.
Speaker 2 (04:03):
I'm trying to sleep, that's the people are sleeping. And
then when you open it, they're like ooh, you know, like.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
As nosy as you are, you don't want to see
what's going on out there? Of the sea.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
I don't know, birds or something. I like to look
out the window, and you keep it closed because you're
being mindful of everyone.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
Else on the plane. Oh god, we've had that curve
the very last episode of Curve Bread. You saw it.
Speaker 2 (04:25):
I didn't.
Speaker 1 (04:26):
We're leaving the window. The window shades need to be
open out the window. Shehads can be closed on the
ground in the summer because they're trying to keep the
airplane cool. Like I understand that. But once the airplane
pushes off the gate and they got the ac rolling,
then we the window sheds coming up and we're looking
out the window and I don't really care. I mean,
that's what the way. They didn't want you to look
out the window that wouldn't have windows. So there. Oh,
(04:46):
if you ain't sitting in the window seat, it's not
your decision.
Speaker 3 (04:49):
Oh yeah, well you ask someone to open it, like
if you're not in the window seat.
Speaker 1 (04:55):
Probably because it makes me nauseous to not be able
to have any reference to what's happening outside. I don't
like that.
Speaker 3 (05:00):
Okay, I'm gonna sit there and judge you.
Speaker 1 (05:06):
But oh, you're talking about you wouldn't ask someone to
open it? Yeah, No, I'm gonna just sit there like, dang,
I wonder what's going on out there?
Speaker 2 (05:16):
Just yeah, I didn't. I just want to look.
Speaker 1 (05:23):
Yeah, I can look out the window. I can say, well,
we're over Kansas now, you know. I don't know. I
can I can have some reference that we're staring on.
Speaker 3 (05:28):
No idea, we're over right.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
I don't understand when this became a thing. It's a
new it's a relatively new trend to keep the window
shapes closed. And like sometimes you'll be on a plane
they'll take off and like most of them are closed,
and I'm like, what what are we like in a
black hole? Like what are we doing here?
Speaker 2 (05:45):
Like I will agree on takeoff and landings.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
You could put the window because you want to see
you're getting closer to the ground, or you want to
take a video of you taking off.
Speaker 3 (05:54):
But when you're thirty five thousand being there there, what
are you going to see?
Speaker 1 (05:57):
What is there to see? The sky? Right? Like, just
close your eyes then, thank you, thank you. Open the
wind when the air it's it's a miracle of flight.
