Cocktails with Patrick Recap - 7/14/10

Hey cosmo gals!  I'm very happy to be writing recaps for the website.  Feel free to follow me on Twitter (@alinacat1401) or find me on facebook (Briana Belding-Peck).  I would love to chat about our favorite radio station!
Briana

Patrick had a great quote at the beginning of the show: “If you have enemies, that means you stood for something, and you should be proud of that.”

Jnutmeg sent a salty email about the wedding talk on Monday’s show. She didn’t like Patrick’s gift idea, him bringing a date, the RSVP situation, etc. Listeners began calling and were standing up for YB! Lots of responses-us cosmo gals (and guys) love Patrick!

Lea had the opportunity to attend the red carpet and party for the release of the Jersey Shore Soundtrack. She said it was a great evening, but the weather was very hot. Despite the heat, everyone was dressed to the nines! The event was held at a fabulous club in NYC. Lea got to talk with several attendees. Here are some of the people she talked to and what they said:

Mike “The Situation” has a song coming out.

Snooki: Lea asked her if a bar is a good place to meet guys. Snooki said no, and that a bar is a place to hook up with someone. Good places to meet guys include the library, the deli, or a pizzeria-that’s where the men are! Lea also asked Snooki about her post Jersey Shore plans. Snooki said that she is not a singer, but will probably try comedy, writing a book, developing a hair product line, and lots of other things that are in the works. She also said that Miami was insane with partying and very intense.

Lil Jon: His favorite shots are vodka or Patron, and his favorite club song is “Shots.” He has a song on the Jersey Shore Soundtrack.

J Sean: His favorite type of bathing suit on a girl is one that is close to nothing, since those leave fewer tan lines.

Lea had a great time at the event!

Words of Wisdom with Lucas:
(we def need to get more info about Lucas... starting with FB & Twitter)

Lucas was asked his thoughts on Twilight. He said that he wasn’t going to hate on the vampire “fad” that is going on. Out of the three big celebrity weddings over the weekend, he said that he would have wanted to go to La La and Carmelo’s wedding.

Patrick had received an email from one of his cousins regarding moving to be with her boyfriend. Patrick said that the move has to be for you. You need to ultimately be comfortable with it. The relationship may or may not work out. Have reasons for why the move works for you.

Patrick and Lea had lots of calls about this topic. Jenn in California moved for love. The relationship didn’t work, so she moved back home. She looks back on it fondly, as a life experience. Cheryl in Tennessee is a teacher. Her boyfriend was in politics, and she moved to DC with him. She wishes she had stayed behind, and followed her own dream. She brought up the point that the moving situation is different when a couple is engaged or married. Jess from Florida moved to be with her boyfriend. She said it was a tough decision to make, but she’s happy so far. She doesn’t know anyone, but she’s still doing what she wanted to do-law school. She isn’t giving up her goals, and she’s also with her boyfriend. Tabitha in DC met her boyfriend at a destination wedding. He lives across the country in Phoenix. They see each other a couple of times a month. She would move in a heartbeat. She said “If you can move for work, why not move for love?” Renee from Michigan moved for love, but got a place on her own. She was able to find herself, and move for herself. She has no regrets, and is now married.

Patrick brought up the following: when one’s significant other moves, it brings on fear of a long distance relationship or of losing the person. Moving tests the relationship. Will we be good on our own by ourselves without our friends and connections? Do what is best for each individual. When facing a move for love, you get lots of pressure from family, friends, and society, as well as judgment from others. Another great Patrick quote: “If you are asking someone for advice, it’s generally because you know the right answer.” Own your move. It will either be a great life experience, or a not so great life experience. If it’s not a good one, move back to where you were. Great conversation today!
