- 0:52Speaker 6: Yeah, my wife had to hug me because they are
- 0:54Speaker 6: so frightened.
- 0:56Speaker 4: Fellers.
- 0:56Speaker 5: I want to run something past. Ye had a social
- 0:58Speaker 5: media incident last night, Yes see, if we're going to
- 1:02Speaker 5: talk about just spat some cracker on the old microphone there, kesy.
- 1:06Speaker 5: So I'm sitting there, I'm on my phone, I'm on
- 1:09Speaker 5: Instagram while I'm on Instagram, I get a friend request, okay,
- 1:14Speaker 5: when I I don't know about you, we'll find out pegs.
- 1:17Speaker 5: You can be on the chat on this one as
- 1:18Speaker 5: well if you need to as well. Not all the time, depending,
- 1:21Speaker 5: but generally, if I get a friend request, I'll see
- 1:23Speaker 5: who it is in case I know them, and then
- 1:26Speaker 5: I have to follow them back. I go on to
- 1:29Speaker 5: this person. I look, I recognize the person. I have
- 1:34Speaker 5: seen the person, but I don't. I don't know the person,
- 1:38Speaker 5: so for me, it's it would be weird for me
- 1:41Speaker 5: to follow this person back. Never spoken to this person
- 1:43Speaker 5: in my life. I go back out of the profile
- 1:46Speaker 5: and I look and I'm following the person. So at
- 1:52Speaker 5: some point during that process, accidentally I've hit followed. But
- 1:57Speaker 5: I've followed this person back immediately after their friend requested me, right, yeah,
- 2:04Speaker 5: so that's happened straight away. So then I go and
- 2:08Speaker 5: when I see that I've followed, I think to myself,
- 2:11Speaker 5: should have I already followed this person at some point
- 2:13Speaker 5: and that's not even possible. So then I'm looking to
- 2:16Speaker 5: see when I've followed. It's not this person has followed me.
- 2:21Speaker 5: I've followed back, right, So then I'm like, well, I
- 2:24Speaker 5: should unfollow because I don't know this person, and it's
- 2:27Speaker 5: weird for me to be following this person because I
- 2:29Speaker 5: don't know them at all.
- 2:30Speaker 7: Are they a well known person?
- 2:31Speaker 1: No? Okay?
- 2:32Speaker 4: Are they male or female?
- 2:35Speaker 1: Their? Female? We go, yeah, okay, yes.
- 2:40Speaker 5: So then I think, well, I should unfollow because I
- 2:42Speaker 5: don't know the person. But the fact that I've just
- 2:44Speaker 5: followed them back immediately, yeah, I'm thinking that this probably
- 2:49Speaker 5: still on the phone or whatever followed. That was quick
- 2:54Speaker 5: and then but then I would unfollow the person. Then
- 2:57Speaker 5: I'd be weird.
- 3:00Speaker 2: You could just quickly unfollow and then just go because
- 3:03Speaker 2: if that was them, they might think, oh glitch maybe.
- 3:06Speaker 5: Oh yeah, But I was a little bit worried because
- 3:11Speaker 5: I know the person. The person works here, I was
- 3:14Speaker 5: someone yeah yeah, but I don't know. But I don't
- 3:16Speaker 5: know them.
- 3:17Speaker 2: Young female, older female, attractive, young female.
- 3:22Speaker 5: Okay, roughly'll be getting on for thirty years, i'd say,
- 3:27Speaker 5: younger than me, yes, young okay, attractive, did you say, Jason, Yes,
- 3:32Speaker 5: I would. I would classer as attractive. Right, So then
- 3:35Speaker 5: it becomes a weird. Look, now I tell you what
- 3:37Speaker 5: I did tell you what.
- 3:39Speaker 7: It is an issue, isn't it? Because you don't want
- 3:40Speaker 7: to be rud.
- 3:41Speaker 1: It's an issue.
- 3:42Speaker 5: So then I think, I wonder if a fan of
- 3:47Speaker 5: the show, So then I have a look at them.
- 3:49Speaker 5: See this is what you end up doing now, isn't it?
- 3:51Speaker 5: Because I'm now going this is not a good look
- 3:53Speaker 5: for a man of my age. No, she'll be following
- 3:55Speaker 5: this person?
- 3:56Speaker 1: Not good. So I guess I don't know. I guess
- 3:59Speaker 1: My question is what do you? What do you? What
- 4:02Speaker 1: would your steps have been?
- 4:04Speaker 2: Just to be honest, divorce and just slide into all.
- 4:09Speaker 4: Clarify though, so you unfollowed it. I know you didn't because.
- 4:13Speaker 7: I would be.
- 4:16Speaker 1: Rude.
- 4:17Speaker 7: What does their name start with?
- 4:20Speaker 5: We might just have to cut this but out. I
- 4:21Speaker 5: don't know how to deal with it. Yeah, I'll tell
- 4:23Speaker 5: you what I did. I'll tell you what I did.
- 4:25Speaker 5: I messaged the person. I said, look, this is a
- 4:29Speaker 5: bit weird, but I have accidentally followed you.
- 4:32Speaker 7: That's the weirdest thing you could have done.
- 4:35Speaker 5: Oh man, I have accidentally followed you. I know this
- 4:41Speaker 5: is going to sound like complete bullshit, but on the
- 4:43Speaker 5: app side, this is going to make great content for
- 4:47Speaker 5: the radio show that I do. The person's come back
- 4:50Speaker 5: and said, I'm a huge fan of the show, right, Okay,
- 4:53Speaker 5: I look forward to being part of the show content.
- 4:55Speaker 5: And I also said I won't use your name, so
- 4:57Speaker 5: I said, I look, she said, I look forward to
- 4:59Speaker 5: being the content.
- 5:00Speaker 7: So she is a fan of the show, right, okay,
- 5:02Speaker 7: So well that's all.
- 5:04Speaker 4: Gee, that's that's fine.
- 5:07Speaker 2: To say her name and pugs will beep it out
- 5:10Speaker 2: just to see if I'm following them, just so I know.
- 5:12Speaker 1: Okay, okay, it's.
- 5:16Speaker 7: Do you know who that is?
- 5:17Speaker 5: Yes, so that's the follow and then I'm like follow
- 5:22Speaker 5: back immediately, and then I'm like, oh yeah.
- 5:26Speaker 3: I quite honestly, I'm you got a great result out
- 5:30Speaker 3: of that. It was a very honest response and you
- 5:32Speaker 3: sorted it out. Not anything close to what I would
- 5:35Speaker 3: have done. I would have had no shame and immediately unfollowing.
- 5:39Speaker 2: Yeah, I would have panicked and called them on Instagram
- 5:44Speaker 2: and set up a date on one down at Empire.
- 5:50Speaker 1: The whole Arky Big Show.
- 5:51Speaker 3: Week days from four on Radio Hurdarchy with the WKY
- 5:56Speaker 3: Big Show Podcast.
- 5:57Speaker 4: I probably wouldn't have even noticed.
- 5:59Speaker 1: I know you wouldn't.
- 6:00Speaker 4: Of followers. I don't get friend requests that follows off.
- 6:06Speaker 4: I get follows.
- 6:07Speaker 7: Yeah, he said, request follow.
- 6:10Speaker 6: Right, Okay, I mean I get friend requests on a
- 6:13Speaker 6: golfing app, so a lot of those. Yeah cool, And
- 6:18Speaker 6: I think about a thousand requests on Facebook.
- 6:21Speaker 5: Yes, well it's slightly awkward just because of the huge
- 6:26Speaker 5: age disparity there.
- 6:27Speaker 1: And yeah, you can.
- 6:29Speaker 6: Get into all sorts of mischief with the old social
- 6:33Speaker 6: media catch. I knew a guy that used to get
- 6:36Speaker 6: into a bit of mischief on social media.
- 6:38Speaker 5: I know a guy as well who also does. It's
- 6:40Speaker 5: I tell you what, the same guy. Yeah, I tell
- 6:43Speaker 5: you what. Is interesting as people that follow people as
- 6:48Speaker 5: if nobody can see that they're following the person, so
- 6:50Speaker 5: you might be plowing along through.
- 6:53Speaker 1: Yeah, that's chronic for us.
- 6:56Speaker 7: There's a guy who's following every single only fan and.
- 7:00Speaker 1: Start five thousand more people?
- 7:04Speaker 4: How many?
- 7:05Speaker 6: How many people are you guys sort of following in general?
- 7:08Speaker 6: Because I've got fuck all, I think about twenty or
- 7:10Speaker 6: thirty people I follow.
- 7:12Speaker 4: I couldn't even tell.
- 7:13Speaker 6: You who they were, to be honest, I'm following eight
- 7:15Speaker 6: hundred and fifty Wow, seriously.
- 7:17Speaker 7: Yeah, but I've had Instagram for a long time. Yeah,
- 7:20Speaker 7: that's right, you're following seventy.
- 7:21Speaker 4: Eight one seventy eight AM I, okay.
- 7:24Speaker 2: Many of I've got to be better, and I've got
- 7:27Speaker 2: about eight Instagram eight thousand.
- 7:29Speaker 1: They're all like hotties.
- 7:31Speaker 2: Yeah, young young, twenty year old hotties that make.
- 7:36Speaker 1: Sixteen hundred. That's a lot.
- 7:37Speaker 5: It is a lot. It is a lot, and it's
- 7:39Speaker 5: all shit as well. Well, this is a thing though,
- 7:41Speaker 5: and this is the other thing last night. So then
- 7:45Speaker 5: last night after that, I was going through my stories,
- 7:48Speaker 5: just sitting there and there was somebody. I was like,
- 7:50Speaker 5: who the fuck is this? And it was a rugby
- 7:53Speaker 5: league player's partner.
- 7:57Speaker 7: Whoa I know? Were she attracted?
- 8:00Speaker 3: No?
- 8:01Speaker 1: No, she wasn't.
- 8:02Speaker 5: No, she wasn't at all. And I was just had
- 8:04Speaker 5: absolutely no idea who it was. She's got about three
- 8:06Speaker 5: hundred followers or something like that. So what it would
- 8:09Speaker 5: have been is this person would have done No, this
- 8:12Speaker 5: person would have done a collab. And I followed off
- 8:16Speaker 5: the co lab and ended up following both of the parties.
- 8:18Speaker 7: Are you follow Are you worried about? I am following
- 8:21Speaker 7: now he misschief first and.
- 8:23Speaker 1: This is weird.
- 8:25Speaker 4: Can we meet for coffee so we can sort this? Please?
- 8:29Speaker 2: Are you worried about the sort of early onset boom
- 8:33Speaker 2: and nature of your Instagram use, you know, one of the
- 8:35Speaker 2: accidental follows and things, because I mean I might have
- 8:38Speaker 2: done that.
- 8:38Speaker 7: I'm not sure.
- 8:39Speaker 5: Well, that's the thing, you don't know, because even now
- 8:40Speaker 5: and then I'll go through mine and I'll go through
- 8:42Speaker 5: all my follows and I'll just get rid of them.
- 8:45Speaker 5: Why have I followed this? Why am I following this?
- 8:47Speaker 5: Why am I following this? Yeah? Because you do it
- 8:51Speaker 5: like sixteen hundreds too much. I don't know that many people.
- 8:54Speaker 4: Yeah, what was my How many? Did I have?
- 8:55Speaker 5: Seventy eight following? Like political ships? And then it's your
- 8:59Speaker 5: feed us full.
- 8:59Speaker 4: Of the most of mine is political. I think, so good,
- 9:04Speaker 4: most of it. Feelers.
- 9:07Speaker 7: You've got a clean Insta and a burner insta way.
- 9:10Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah on my other phone.
- 9:13Speaker 7: No, no, you can have it on the same phone.
- 9:15Speaker 7: Jase has got a whole other phone for looking at buzzies.
- 9:18Speaker 4: Yeah, I've got a busy phone.
- 9:21Speaker 1: It's got a massive screen on it.
- 9:23Speaker 6: Yeah, it's covered glad man.
- 9:29Speaker 7: Well, what an interesting dilemma. Oh yeah, I.
- 9:34Speaker 2: Don't know what I would have done. I probably would
- 9:35Speaker 2: have just unfollowed. Yeah, to be honest, if they work here,
- 9:38Speaker 2: i'd probably just leave following because almost every night there's
- 9:42Speaker 2: like a work drinks. I'll end up chatting to certain
- 9:46Speaker 2: people that you recognize and end up following each other
- 9:49Speaker 2: on Instagram.
- 9:49Speaker 4: Anyway, Yeah, yeah, work drinks.
- 9:53Speaker 7: Come on, man, Jace, she was really nice.
- 9:56Speaker 4: I might go on the old Instagram and see if
- 9:58Speaker 4: I can follow it.
- 9:59Speaker 7: I say that loud, how many people of you?
- 10:02Speaker 1: Sorry?
- 10:03Speaker 4: No, I was just going to say.
- 10:04Speaker 3: I think that the modern day signal that you've accidentally
- 10:09Speaker 3: followed someone as if they recognized, if they had noticed
- 10:12Speaker 3: that you had unfollowed, then that would be them going, oh,
- 10:14Speaker 3: he's probably acidentally followed me back and pulled the pin right,
- 10:18Speaker 3: no harm, no foul.
- 10:19Speaker 7: So maybe message here and say, hey, look, I just.
- 10:25Speaker 4: I think usually just keep up the communication.
- 10:27Speaker 6: Yeah yeah, maintain and say I just wanted to reiterate,
- 10:32Speaker 6: was that weird that I message you?
- 10:34Speaker 4: Because it feels a bit.
- 10:35Speaker 5: I feel like if the four of us did a hacker,
- 10:38Speaker 5: that would resolve at sure.
- 10:42Speaker 7: Y Yeah, well you guys do it at old film.
- 10:46Speaker 5: PAGs will lead because PAGs was the only one here
- 10:50Speaker 5: that's not been followed by this person.
- 10:52Speaker 7: Yeah, and you're going to have a neutral leader.
- 10:54Speaker 5: Let this person knows traditionally those pegs, Well, you need
- 10:59Speaker 5: a neutral leader of the hakker traditionally, do you.
- 11:04Speaker 6: Guys, because I don't I don't check how many followers
- 11:07Speaker 6: I have and all that sort of stuff.
