Prepare to LOL. It's been almost nine months since Tanya Rad's first date with her boyfriend and in honor of our girl's blossoming romance we looked back at all the times Ryan Seacrest mentioned his nickname "Socrates" on-air for a good laugh.

ICYMI, Tanya wanted to keep her beau's identity private in the beginning of their courtship so Ryan took it upon himself to dub the hunk "Socrates" after his local grocery store's deli worker. Why? We're not sure but it stuck.

"I call him Socrates because I’m not allowed to say his real name until she approves," Seacrest previously explained on-air. "You’ve got to give me permission to say his real name soon or we're going to screw up history," he joked. "People are going to think you’re dating an ancient Greek philosopher.”

Watch back the funny mash-up above and meet the real Socrates here!
