No post its? No post its? OK, I'll come up with
(00:42):
something. Thank you for asking fora gift. So now I have.
I just wanted more to do today. Sorry. Oh it is crazy.
It's been a year almost that you'vebeen here. But even crazier. You
know. They always say when you'reyoung that time flies as you get older.
And here we are almost in May, and I get it now.
I get it May literally being tomorrow. Yes, crazy coming up on the
(01:03):
show. We've got tickets for JustinTimberlake, May seventh, the SAP Center

puts on a fantastic show. Howneat that he's going to be here in
the Bay Area. So be hereat eight twenty five for your chance to
win those tickets here on the Breeze. That show is one week from today,
So keep that in mind. You'rewinning these tickets and then you're scurrying
(01:23):
off to the show. You're scurrying. That's the way you go to a
concert. Take you a week toget down the SAP showy coming out this
morning. It's six twenty five,it's the Morning Breeze. Bring teas all
right? You ready for this?Yes, this is something most of us
should know how to do, butonly ten percent of us can do it
correctly. Something most of us shouldknow how to do, only ten percent
(01:44):
of us can do it correctly.And I will tell you this. I
am among the ten percent. Oh, I do this really really well.
This is something most of us shouldknow how to do, only ten percent
of us can do it correctly.If you think you know the answer,
eight seven seven nine eight one nineeight one in court will give us the
answer coming up six twenty five hereon the Morning Breeze and Louise it is
(02:08):
Phil Collins groovy kind of Love six' twenty five. It is the Morning
Breeze with Carolyn and Court. Everyweekday morning at six twenty five and again
at eight forty, we bring youthe Morning Breeze, Brain Teas and today's
I am stumped on this one.You're stumped on it all right. Here
it is. It's something most ofus should know how to do, but
(02:30):
only ten percent of us can doit correctly. We got a call from
Natalie, who listens in San Francisco, and she suggested that it would be
baking cookies. Which cookies? Ithink it's a good guess because we all
think we can do it, butnobody really can perfect it. It's a
very small group of people. That'skind of subjective and that's not the answer.
Okay, what is the answer?Answer? Jump start your car?
(02:53):
Oh gosh, you know not howto connection? But no where they go
on the on the boat, onthe battery. No, it's scares the
living daylights out of me that jumpson your car. Only ten percent of
us can do it correctly. Iam in the ten percent. Yeah,
because you had said before we whenwe talked about it earlier, you were
like, I'm an expert of this. I feel confident you really are good
at that. I am not onlyconfident. I have a like a high
(03:15):
grade set of jumper cables that Itravel around with that are extra long,
because you know, oftentimes you haveto point two cars at each other and
get the batteries close to each other. Not me, we could we could
be like really far apart and Ican just stretch this thing out. I
love how you're so braggy on thosenot me. Sometimes I'll go into me,
I'll go into parking lots and they'relike, whose batteries dead? I
(03:38):
want to help you out tables.It doesn't matter. I can park around
the corner and I could still reachyou. So Court, let me ask
you this. How does one getover the fear that the car is going
to explode when you put the jumpercables on if you do it incorrectly,
Well, it's not you just obviouslyyou just don't want to cross terminals.
The positive goes to positive, negativeto negative or negative negatived. You put
(04:00):
it somewhere on the car body.Well, that sounds really easy when you
say it like that, But whenyou're afraid of battery is going to explode
in your face, when you're strandedin a parking lot. I have I
have yet to meet one person whosebattery has exploded on them. I will
say this though. The new trend, and I got this for my daughters,
is rather than jumper cables because youhave to rely on another vehicle in
order to jump your car, isthey now have these rechargeable battery packs that
(04:23):
you just keep in your trunk.That's good. They can do it by
yourself. Okay, so both mydaughters have these in their cars, so
you know, because you never knowwhen this is going to happen, sure
and have to flag somebody down astranger. Still, same question though about
the exploding battle positive to positive,negative to negative or negative to ground.
So you put it on the body. We'll walk out to your callicle after
(04:44):
this. If you just coming,I would be there in a sec.
I'd be there faster than triple A. You've be excited. Eight seven seven
nine eight one nine eight one.You can always connect with us our iHeartRadio
app. Send us a message that'sa talkback microphone. Speak into that and
that message comes to us right awayhere in the studio again the morning Breeze
Brain Teas we do it every weekdaymorning at six twenty five and eight forty
(05:06):
and be here at eight twenty fivethis morning, because we're gonna give you
a chance to win. Justin Timberlakeconcert tickets for his show next Tuesday,
May seventh at the SAP Center inSan Jose. Those tickets up for grabs
eight twenty five. Here on theMorning Breeze seven oh seven with Nelly Furtado.
Here on the Morning Breeze with Carolynand Cord. And it's time now
for the Brighter Side. This iswhere you tell us about the things that
(05:27):
make you happy, Maybe something goodhappened to you or somebody in your life.
Eight seven seven nine eighty one ohnine eight one. The Brighter Side
is sponsored by Shreven Company, Luxurytime Pieces, Fine Designers, and Flawless
Diamonds. So Court the winner ofthe one point three billion dollar powerball lottery
jackpot in Oregon from a couple ofmonths ago. Remember that person, They
(05:48):
weren't coming forward, And frankly,honestly, I forgot about that whole thing,
because well I did. It wasn'tus. I was obsessing over somebody
in Oregon winning one point three billiondollars. That makes it that makes sense
because you're from there. Yeah,well they came forward finally yesterday, and
boy do they have a story.So the guy's name is Chang. He's
(06:08):
an immigrant from Laos, right,Laos, Laos. He's an immigrant from
Laos. And you know how theyalways ask what are you going to do
with the money now that you've wonlike this huge amount of money? Well,
Chang has been battling cancer for eightyears. He even had a chemotherapy
treatment, I think just this pastweek. So he says he's going to
pay for his cancer treatment bills andhe's going to share the money with his
(06:30):
wife and a friend. And hisdirect quote was I'll be able to provide
for my family and my health andfind a good doctor for myself. Wow.
And I was like, whoa.This is those times where you hear
somebody making just a crazy amount ofmoney and you're really really happy for him,
like all the people who needed this. Chang is the person I honestly
(06:50):
had a thought when I heard thatstatement of had I played that lottery,
which I didn't, but I knowso many people did. I would have
been happy to have not wont sohe could win. I want my money
to go to him exactly the typeof person you want to win that.
Yes, So he's splitting the moneyevenly with his wife and their family friends.
So the family friend chipped in onehundred dollars and they all got a
(07:14):
pool of tickets, and so he'shonoring what he promised. He said,
you chip in a hundred bucks,I'll do whatever, my wife did whatever,
and we'll just split it three ways. We'll all agree to split it.
And so that's what they're doing.Yeah, I don't think there was
a written agreement in places. Hecould have very easily knock gone this route
easily, and it's choosing to doso. He said that the family friend
texted Chang and his wife a pictureof the ticket and said we're billionaires,
(07:40):
and he couldn't believe it. Hejust froze. So I guess. In
the weeks leading up to the drawing, he wrote out numbers for the game
on a piece of paper and heslept with it under his pillow, and
he prayed every night that he wouldwin. And here's what he said.
This is his quote. I needsome help. I don't want to die
yet unless I have done something formy family first. Wow, right,
(08:01):
I mean, just incredible, Sohonestly, congratulations to him, like so
well deserved. We're so happy thathe was the winner, so now we
know who it is. Yes,definitely the type of person again that you
want to win that that much money. Absolutely, And if you've got a
brighter side eight seven seven nine eightone nine eight one, you can always
(08:22):
reach out to us on social media. We have people that email us all
the time or send us direct messages. You can do that. We're on
social media. Ninety eight one TheBreeze. And on the same note,
be thinking of those people in yourlife that are out there making differences to
your community, to your family,to maybe just one other person, because
we want to know about them.For our Morning Breeze Person of the Week.
We do this every Friday morning,just after seven o'clock. We take
(08:43):
your nominations, select a winner forthe week and have them on the air
and you as well with us andaward them a brunch for two on the
Bay on City Cruises anchored by Hornblower. So be thinking about who that person
is in your life. Get yournominations in ninety eight one The Breeze dot
Com seven pink here on the MorningBreeze with Carolyn and Court. Let me
(09:05):
ask you a question, Court,about willpower? Do you feel I have
none? Is that the question?All right? Coming up? Justin Timberlake
tickets here on the breeze. No. I have found that as I get
older, my willpower is less andless. And I don't know if that's
a product of getting older. Iam not old, but as I get
(09:26):
older, I noticed that I Icave into things a little bit easier.
Let me give you an example,all right, This morning at six two
am, Court handed me a baggyhere of cinnamon Johnny Bears with chocolate on
that. Chocolate covered cinnamon bears myfavorite candy stack. It is that I
(09:46):
have introduced to you the best.I'll tell you where I get them.
Don't even tell me, just keepbringing them. So the old me would
have said either A, Please don'tbring these, I can't eat these,
or B. I would have waitedand took them home and eating them later
in the day. Sure, atleast eating them after breakfast. Yes,
would you like to tell people whattime I ate that first chocolate covered cinnamon
(10:09):
gummy bear? Oh it was earlyin the six o'clock hour. Yeah,
six fourteen, six fourteen Okay,yeah, six fourteen. I wrote it
down because I was so ashamed.So I don't know if there's something to
the idea of us having less willpoweras we get older, where you just
kind of give into things. Ideal with a lot of things. I
don't think that it's less willpower,Carolyn. I think that it's you've got
(10:31):
experience. Again, You're not gettingold. You just have more experience and
you realize some things don't matter asmuch. Maybe a chocolate covered cinnamon bear
at six in the morning pretty great? What about it's seven twenty seven?
Oh, you think about having anotherone? I mean, they're here if
you want. Would you have one? Maybe it's a little early for me,
and I think you would. Isthere anything in your life that you
(10:54):
find that you used to be astickler on when you were younger, and
now as you get older, littlebit less about less following the rules on
that. I'm nothing's popping to mybecause I'm my willpower is super super strong.
What's it like court to be thegreatest man alive? Is that done?
No? I've never been big onwillpower anyway, Like you you talking
(11:16):
about popping a chocolate covered cinnamon bearat six in the morning. What's the
problem here, I've been doing thatmy entire life. Yeah, struggles real,
it's almost reverse for me because likenow, just like my tummy,
I got to get something in myself. Ever, Court always says this,
yeah, and then I eat alone. But what is it for you?
And do you find that this isthe case that as you get older,
(11:37):
your willpower kind of goes out thewindow eight seven seven nine eight one oh
nine eight one. Maybe you usedto put in like a good hour like
worth of exercise, sure, andnow like forty five minutes is good through
justifying fifteen minutes is great workout?Do that all the time, justifying walking
to the grocery store like that wasmy work. There's no workout I've done
(11:58):
for the day. I could anything. Give us the give us call eight
seven seven h nine eight one.Don't forget this morning eight twenty five.
We've got more chances to win thosejustin Timberlake concert tickets. Think of all
the hits that he's going to beperforming, I know, and it's next
Tuesday at the SAP Center in SanJose. So many hits. He puts
on an amazing show. So yeah, be here at a twenty five your
chance to win on the Breeze.It's Bill Withers seven two. It is
(12:22):
the Morning Breeze with Carolyn and Court. Good morning, Carolyn. I have
officially heard it all, so wewe have. We have talked about sleep
divorce a few times here on theMorning with Yes, we have this where
couples choose to sleep in different rooms, maybe different beds, but oftentimes different
beds in different rooms. And Iam all here from well, have you
(12:43):
ever heard of FaceTime sleeping? No? Is that what it sounds like.
It's exactly what it is. It'swhen spouses or couples are separated from each
other by by a pretty good distance, but they miss each other. And
that's what they do is right beforethey go to bed, is they dial
each other up on FaceTime or inthe same house or even if they're on
vacation. I guess it's typically spouseswho like maybe they're on like on a
(13:07):
work trip. Oh okay, becauseyou know you always hear like, I
had never sleep very well in yourway. That's such a romantic You've never
heard that, yep. So whatthey do is they dial each other up
on Facebook, face time, onFaceTime. I guess you could do it
through Facebook. You do it onFaceTime, and you you say your advice
and then you just leave your phoneon on the side of your your night
standing there and you go to bed. That's so bizarre. I mean,
(13:31):
I get it. I'm not knockingas just such a weird concept. Somebody's
just watching staring at you while yousleep, right, It's just it is
because usually if you're in bed withsomebody, you turn your back or you're
on your back. I mean,I guess some people sleep face to face,
but nobody wants someone staring at themwhen they fall asleep, no,
do they. I I this cameto my attention because Donnie Wahlberg, who
(13:52):
is not only an actor, butyou know, he's one of the hot
new kids on the block. Yes, new kids on the block. He
and his wife, Jenny mcar Thisis what they do. They do both
they're both in show business, andthey miss each other so much when they're
apart, when he's out on touror whatever she does that they they FaceTime
(14:13):
sleep is they dial each other onFaceTime and they turn on You ever do
this with Randy Never? You wouldn't. No, Randy would be like Court
go to sleep. Click like youknow we miss each other when we're apart,
sure, but like Tod like,I don't think it would. It's
the idea of being asleep and acamera is rolling in my face. There's
(14:33):
that a big part for me,big part of it. And if you're
worried about anything, I don't thinkanybody can tap into that. But who
knows. Maybe people listening do this. And this has been going on for
a while. We're just hearing kindof like a baby monitor, because you
know, we always had a babymonitor for adults. Yes, eight seven
seven one, nine eight one?Do you do this? Do you know
(14:54):
somebody that does this? Does this? Would you ever do this? Let
us know you can use our iHeartRadioapp and that talkback microphone too to send
a message. That's right coming upthis morning eight twenty five, another shot
at these justin Timberlake Contra tickets ashe comes to the SAP Center next week
May seventh, that's next Tuesday.So be here at eight twenty five for
your chance to win on the MorningBreeze. That is Jack Wagner. It's
(15:18):
eight oh eight. You've got theMorning Breeze with Carolyn and Court Carolyn.
I like to think that I havepretty decent street smarts. Yeah, I
think you do. Can't pull oneover on this guy, No, I
like to think. However, there'salways the butt. Yeah. I recently
went to the mall with my wife, Randy. I don't go. You
(15:39):
would think that a guy who's gota wife and two teenage daughters would be
at the mall all the time,for sure, not as much as you
think. Well, also malls,you know, you probably were at them
a lot in the eighties, butnot as much these days. They're they're
less popular. My daughters they goall the time all the time. I
just said, as they've gotten older, there's no reason for dad to tagle.
Sure. So I'm there at themall with my wife the other day
(16:03):
and this guy working one of thosekiosk stores. I didn't I don't even
know what kind of kind of storeit was, but it was one of
those little kiosks in the center.He said, hey, man, let
me, can I tell you asecret about your shoes? And I was
and I was like, secret aboutmy shoes? What kind of shoes did
you have? I was wearing myAdidas, my newer Adidas. Oh,
I know that IDAs yeah, theywere cute, but they are cute.
(16:26):
I was waiting for you to saythat, yeah, they're cute. And
I'm secret about my shoes and Istart walking towards the man. Becau's like
hey, but he's like he kindof waves me over. He's like,
I can't tell you a secret aboutyour shoes, and I'm like, secret
about my shoes, and I startwalking over to him. I look over
my wife and she's just like givingme this look of what are you?
Is he bringing you in to sellyou something? He hooked me in to
(16:47):
sell me something. That's how hegot you. Yeah, He's like,
he's like, hey, can Itell you a secret about your shoes?
And apparently it works all the time. Because I was nearly there. I
saw the look on my wife's face, and then I'm like, I'm good
on secrets, so then I andthen I was talking to Randy and she's
like, I can't believe you feltfor that, and I'm like, I
had no idea that was a ploye. I would have fallen for it as
(17:11):
well. I have to say I'mon your team on this one. I
completely because I would not have expectedthat line to be the one that hooks
me in. It would have beenma'am, can I can I show you
something real quick? Or can Itell you something? Or can you take
a look at this real quick?I promise I'll just take a minute.
It was a lot more. Itwas a lot more subtle than somebody saying
like, hey, you need somenew shoelaces for your shoes. I just
enjoy the visual, even if evenif you don't know Randy, just visualize
(17:36):
anybody's wife standing there with their mouthdropped open and their eyes really big,
because I have a feeling that's exactlywhat she looked like, thinking are you
insane? Court, that you're fallingfor this? When poor Court we yet
somewhere to go. And I havetotal respect for people who work those kiosks.
I mean that's not an easy job. That's a tough to sell your
merch. Yeah, compliment the shoes, bring them in first for the big
(17:59):
surprise. Tell you a little bitof secret about your shoes. Okay,
so what did you buy a newphone? I buy yo, yo,
exactly all of the above. Iwas this was this close. That's good

in Oregon winning one point three billiondollars. That makes it that makes sense
because you're from there. Yeah,well they came forward finally yesterday, and
boy do they have a story.So the guy's name is Chang. He's
(06:08):
an immigrant from Laos, right,Laos, Laos. He's an immigrant from
Laos. And you know how theyalways ask what are you going to do
with the money now that you've wonlike this huge amount of money? Well,
Chang has been battling cancer for eightyears. He even had a chemotherapy
treatment, I think just this pastweek. So he says he's going to
pay for his cancer treatment bills andhe's going to share the money with his
(06:30):
wife and a friend. And hisdirect quote was I'll be able to provide
for my family and my health andfind a good doctor for myself. Wow.
And I was like, whoa.This is those times where you hear
somebody making just a crazy amount ofmoney and you're really really happy for him,
like all the people who needed this. Chang is the person I honestly
(06:50):
had a thought when I heard thatstatement of had I played that lottery,
which I didn't, but I knowso many people did. I would have
been happy to have not wont sohe could win. I want my money
to go to him exactly the typeof person you want to win that.
Yes, So he's splitting the moneyevenly with his wife and their family friends.
So the family friend chipped in onehundred dollars and they all got a
(07:14):
pool of tickets, and so he'shonoring what he promised. He said,
you chip in a hundred bucks,I'll do whatever, my wife did whatever,
and we'll just split it three ways. We'll all agree to split it.
And so that's what they're doing.Yeah, I don't think there was
a written agreement in places. Hecould have very easily knock gone this route
easily, and it's choosing to doso. He said that the family friend
texted Chang and his wife a pictureof the ticket and said we're billionaires,
(07:40):
and he couldn't believe it. Hejust froze. So I guess. In
the weeks leading up to the drawing, he wrote out numbers for the game
on a piece of paper and heslept with it under his pillow, and
he prayed every night that he wouldwin. And here's what he said.
This is his quote. I needsome help. I don't want to die
yet unless I have done something formy family first. Wow, right,
(08:01):
I mean, just incredible, Sohonestly, congratulations to him, like so
well deserved. We're so happy thathe was the winner, so now we
know who it is. Yes,definitely the type of person again that you
want to win that that much money. Absolutely, And if you've got a
brighter side eight seven seven nine eightone nine eight one, you can always

Com seven pink here on the MorningBreeze with Carolyn and Court. Let me
(09:05):
ask you a question, Court,about willpower? Do you feel I have
none? Is that the question?All right? Coming up? Justin Timberlake
tickets here on the breeze. No. I have found that as I get
older, my willpower is less andless. And I don't know if that's
a product of getting older. Iam not old, but as I get
(09:26):
older, I noticed that I Icave into things a little bit easier.
Let me give you an example,all right, This morning at six two
am, Court handed me a baggyhere of cinnamon Johnny Bears with chocolate on
that. Chocolate covered cinnamon bears myfavorite candy stack. It is that I
(09:46):
have introduced to you the best.I'll tell you where I get them.
Don't even tell me, just keepbringing them. So the old me would
have said either A, Please don'tbring these, I can't eat these,
or B. I would have waitedand took them home and eating them later
in the day. Sure, atleast eating them after breakfast. Yes,
would you like to tell people whattime I ate that first chocolate covered cinnamon
(10:09):
gummy bear? Oh it was earlyin the six o'clock hour. Yeah,
six fourteen, six fourteen Okay,yeah, six fourteen. I wrote it
down because I was so ashamed.So I don't know if there's something to
the idea of us having less willpoweras we get older, where you just
kind of give into things. Ideal with a lot of things. I
don't think that it's less willpower,Carolyn. I think that it's you've got
(10:31):
experience. Again, You're not gettingold. You just have more experience and
you realize some things don't matter asmuch. Maybe a chocolate covered cinnamon bear
at six in the morning pretty great? What about it's seven twenty seven?
Oh, you think about having anotherone? I mean, they're here if
you want. Would you have one? Maybe it's a little early for me,
and I think you would. Isthere anything in your life that you
(10:54):
find that you used to be astickler on when you were younger, and
now as you get older, littlebit less about less following the rules on
that. I'm nothing's popping to mybecause I'm my willpower is super super strong.
What's it like court to be thegreatest man alive? Is that done?
No? I've never been big onwillpower anyway, Like you you talking
(11:16):
about popping a chocolate covered cinnamon bearat six in the morning. What's the
problem here, I've been doing thatmy entire life. Yeah, struggles real,
it's almost reverse for me because likenow, just like my tummy,
I got to get something in myself. Ever, Court always says this,
yeah, and then I eat alone. But what is it for you?
And do you find that this isthe case that as you get older,
(11:37):
your willpower kind of goes out thewindow eight seven seven nine eight one oh
nine eight one. Maybe you usedto put in like a good hour like
worth of exercise, sure, andnow like forty five minutes is good through
justifying fifteen minutes is great workout?Do that all the time, justifying walking
to the grocery store like that wasmy work. There's no workout I've done
(11:58):
for the day. I could anything. Give us the give us call eight
seven seven h nine eight one.Don't forget this morning eight twenty five.
We've got more chances to win thosejustin Timberlake concert tickets. Think of all
the hits that he's going to beperforming, I know, and it's next
Tuesday at the SAP Center in SanJose. So many hits. He puts
on an amazing show. So yeah, be here at a twenty five your
chance to win on the Breeze.It's Bill Withers seven two. It is
(12:22):
the Morning Breeze with Carolyn and Court. Good morning, Carolyn. I have
officially heard it all, so wewe have. We have talked about sleep
divorce a few times here on theMorning with Yes, we have this where
couples choose to sleep in different rooms, maybe different beds, but oftentimes different
beds in different rooms. And Iam all here from well, have you
(12:43):
ever heard of FaceTime sleeping? No? Is that what it sounds like.
It's exactly what it is. It'swhen spouses or couples are separated from each
other by by a pretty good distance, but they miss each other. And
that's what they do is right beforethey go to bed, is they dial
each other up on FaceTime or inthe same house or even if they're on
vacation. I guess it's typically spouseswho like maybe they're on like on a
(13:07):
work trip. Oh okay, becauseyou know you always hear like, I
had never sleep very well in yourway. That's such a romantic You've never
heard that, yep. So whatthey do is they dial each other up
on Facebook, face time, onFaceTime. I guess you could do it
through Facebook. You do it onFaceTime, and you you say your advice
and then you just leave your phoneon on the side of your your night
standing there and you go to bed. That's so bizarre. I mean,
(13:31):
I get it. I'm not knockingas just such a weird concept. Somebody's
just watching staring at you while yousleep, right, It's just it is
because usually if you're in bed withsomebody, you turn your back or you're
on your back. I mean,I guess some people sleep face to face,
but nobody wants someone staring at themwhen they fall asleep, no,
do they. I I this cameto my attention because Donnie Wahlberg, who
(13:52):
is not only an actor, butyou know, he's one of the hot
new kids on the block. Yes, new kids on the block. He
and his wife, Jenny mcar Thisis what they do. They do both
they're both in show business, andthey miss each other so much when they're
apart, when he's out on touror whatever she does that they they FaceTime
(14:13):
sleep is they dial each other onFaceTime and they turn on You ever do
this with Randy Never? You wouldn't. No, Randy would be like Court
go to sleep. Click like youknow we miss each other when we're apart,
sure, but like Tod like,I don't think it would. It's
the idea of being asleep and acamera is rolling in my face. There's
(14:33):
that a big part for me,big part of it. And if you're
worried about anything, I don't thinkanybody can tap into that. But who
knows. Maybe people listening do this. And this has been going on for
a while. We're just hearing kindof like a baby monitor, because you
know, we always had a babymonitor for adults. Yes, eight seven
seven one, nine eight one?Do you do this? Do you know
(14:54):
somebody that does this? Does this? Would you ever do this? Let
us know you can use our iHeartRadioapp and that talkback microphone too to send
a message. That's right coming upthis morning eight twenty five, another shot
at these justin Timberlake Contra tickets ashe comes to the SAP Center next week
May seventh, that's next Tuesday.So be here at eight twenty five for
your chance to win on the MorningBreeze. That is Jack Wagner. It's
(15:18):
eight oh eight. You've got theMorning Breeze with Carolyn and Court Carolyn.
I like to think that I havepretty decent street smarts. Yeah, I
think you do. Can't pull oneover on this guy, No, I
like to think. However, there'salways the butt. Yeah. I recently
went to the mall with my wife, Randy. I don't go. You
(15:39):
would think that a guy who's gota wife and two teenage daughters would be
at the mall all the time,for sure, not as much as you
think. Well, also malls,you know, you probably were at them
a lot in the eighties, butnot as much these days. They're they're
less popular. My daughters they goall the time all the time. I
just said, as they've gotten older, there's no reason for dad to tagle.
Sure. So I'm there at themall with my wife the other day
(16:03):
and this guy working one of thosekiosk stores. I didn't I don't even
know what kind of kind of storeit was, but it was one of
those little kiosks in the center.He said, hey, man, let
me, can I tell you asecret about your shoes? And I was
and I was like, secret aboutmy shoes? What kind of shoes did
you have? I was wearing myAdidas, my newer Adidas. Oh,
I know that IDAs yeah, theywere cute, but they are cute.
(16:26):
I was waiting for you to saythat, yeah, they're cute. And
I'm secret about my shoes and Istart walking towards the man. Becau's like
hey, but he's like he kindof waves me over. He's like,
I can't tell you a secret aboutyour shoes, and I'm like, secret
about my shoes, and I startwalking over to him. I look over
my wife and she's just like givingme this look of what are you?
Is he bringing you in to sellyou something? He hooked me in to
(16:47):
sell me something. That's how hegot you. Yeah, He's like,
he's like, hey, can Itell you a secret about your shoes?
And apparently it works all the time. Because I was nearly there. I
saw the look on my wife's face, and then I'm like, I'm good
on secrets, so then I andthen I was talking to Randy and she's
like, I can't believe you feltfor that, and I'm like, I
had no idea that was a ploye. I would have fallen for it as
(17:11):
well. I have to say I'mon your team on this one. I
completely because I would not have expectedthat line to be the one that hooks
me in. It would have beenma'am, can I can I show you
something real quick? Or can Itell you something? Or can you take
a look at this real quick?I promise I'll just take a minute.
It was a lot more. Itwas a lot more subtle than somebody saying
like, hey, you need somenew shoelaces for your shoes. I just
enjoy the visual, even if evenif you don't know Randy, just visualize
(17:36):
anybody's wife standing there with their mouthdropped open and their eyes really big,
because I have a feeling that's exactlywhat she looked like, thinking are you
insane? Court, that you're fallingfor this? When poor Court we yet
somewhere to go. And I havetotal respect for people who work those kiosks.
I mean that's not an easy job. That's a tough to sell your
merch. Yeah, compliment the shoes, bring them in first for the big
(17:59):
surprise. Tell you a little bitof secret about your shoes. Okay,
so what did you buy a newphone? I buy yo, yo,
exactly all of the above. Iwas this was this close. That's good
