Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: One of six point seven I found Covey Christine producer Christen,
- 0:03Speaker 1: thank you for listening to us. So I have a
- 0:05Speaker 1: scenario here that will lead to a question. Okay, So
- 0:08Speaker 1: one of my friends found out his brother is getting
- 0:10Speaker 1: married when he saw a Facebook update posted by the
- 0:14Speaker 1: brother's girlfriend. Turns out my friend's brother has done this
- 0:18Speaker 1: before even moving to another state and facebooking it before
- 0:23Speaker 1: calling family. So my question, what's the biggest news you
- 0:27Speaker 1: should have heard about in person or on the phone,
- 0:31Speaker 1: but you discovered it on Facebook. Oh love for you
- 0:34Speaker 1: to chime in on this at four four three six three,
- 0:37Speaker 1: because I think sadly it happens way too much. It does.
- 0:40Speaker 1: Actually like friends that you think are happy couples and
- 0:46Speaker 1: then when there's a split, and then boom, like the profile
- 0:49Speaker 1: changes and they put the status to divorce like all
- 0:53Speaker 1: of a sudden. Now I get it. You don't expect
- 0:55Speaker 1: your friends sometimes to rush and tell you bad news,
- 0:58Speaker 1: but sometimes when you're really close to somebody, you are
- 1:01Speaker 1: surprised to see it on Facebook before they actually told you.
- 1:04Speaker 2: Yeah, you'd rather hear it from them, Yeah, of course.
- 1:06Speaker 1: Can you think of a scenario in your life?
- 1:08Speaker 2: Christine was sadly sometimes when people have passed away. Yeah,
- 1:13Speaker 2: and you and I are here so early in the morning,
- 1:15Speaker 2: and I'll open Facebook and go, h oh no, and
- 1:19Speaker 2: there's been baby announcements. I didn't know babies were coming.
- 1:23Speaker 2: I saw it on Facebook and.
- 1:25Speaker 1: They're like friends of yours, right, Yeah, you thought they
- 1:26Speaker 1: would have told you.
- 1:27Speaker 2: I would think so. Yeah, engagements of a friend moved
- 1:33Speaker 2: back from LA to New Jersey. Saw it on Facebook.
- 1:36Speaker 2: You think you'd let me know. Yeah, it's surprising sometimes.
- 1:40Speaker 3: That happened a few years ago to me. A close friend.
- 1:43Speaker 3: They announced that they're having baby number two on Facebook,
- 1:47Speaker 3: and I was hurt for like a minute. I got
- 1:49Speaker 3: over it, but then I just did it back. Okay, yeah, yeah,
- 1:53Speaker 3: baby number two. You find out on Facebook?
- 1:55Speaker 1: Yeah, Well, you know what friends is one thing because
- 1:58Speaker 1: you're still just quote friends and they don't have to
- 2:01Speaker 1: tell you everything. But when a family member moves to
- 2:05Speaker 1: another state and you don't even know, Like if my
- 2:07Speaker 1: sister moved and didn't tell me and you found out
- 2:09Speaker 1: and all of a sudden Facebook said like California, I'd
- 2:12Speaker 1: be like, what that's true? So, I mean, family to
- 2:15Speaker 1: me would be the real jarring thing. But hit us
- 2:18Speaker 1: up at four four, three, six.
- 2:19Speaker 3: Three, Oh my gosh, seven one eight. What my friend
- 2:23Speaker 3: found out her mother passed away via Facebook.
- 2:26Speaker 1: That's awful and that destroyed her Unfortunately. There are some
- 2:29Speaker 1: sad moments that you discover on Facebook.
- 2:31Speaker 2: Wow, Yes, we're getting a lot of right passing not knowing. Yeah,
- 2:36Speaker 2: found out the gender of my cousin's baby. They had
- 2:38Speaker 2: a gender revealed party. I didn't even know my cousin
- 2:41Speaker 2: was pregnant. Nine one seven. Oh, That's that's how I've
- 2:43Speaker 2: gotten baby news sometimes too. I'm like, really, we're there.
- 2:47Speaker 1: And they didn't know the cousin, but it wasn't like, wasn't.
- 2:50Speaker 2: The closest circle of friends, So I kind of get it,
- 2:53Speaker 2: but it's it hurts more when it's somebody that you're
- 2:56Speaker 2: really tight with, of.
