Speaker 3 (00:05):
In the Morning Show, here it comes the weekend, ready
to go. A lot of people are saying they're so excited.
Then I'm going to go to the soccer game this weekend.
I'm sorry, the football game. Yeah, I was just told
I can't wear red otherwise people will kill me.
Speaker 2 (00:20):
I don't know. I'm afraid.
Speaker 1 (00:21):
I don't real Madrid.
Speaker 3 (00:24):
It's Real Madrid and Barcelona. But if I wear red,
I'm in trouble, according to them.
Speaker 1 (00:29):
Okay, that's probably maybe because they root for the other teams.
They don't want you to wear the colors of the one.
Speaker 3 (00:34):
See, this is already getting messy. I just want to go,
and I didn't mean to say messy as in a messy.
Speaker 2 (00:41):
I mean I just want to go, have fun, have
some hot beer, enjoy the game.
Speaker 1 (00:44):
That's it.
Speaker 2 (00:44):
That's it.
Speaker 3 (00:45):
I'm not there rooting for anyone, just there for the
to soak up the atmosphere. Because Daniel says it's going
to be a fun festive, it's ricky.
Speaker 1 (00:51):
It should definitely be, especially with those two teams going
at it and the real fans, it should be a
lot of fun.
Speaker 3 (00:57):
Okay, now they're saying, bring up pon show, okay, rain.
Speaker 2 (01:01):
Just in case.
Speaker 4 (01:02):
See, I think those nights are the most fun. As
long as you are prepared to sit out in the
rain and like have a good time and watch I
think you'll have a great a great night. Were some
black you can be the guy that's like I just
hope both teams play well.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
They love those They still Zella's Zella's remember that whole
crazy And you.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
Know some places you're not allowed to bring things like that?
Speaker 2 (01:24):
Is oh I thought was a guy?
Speaker 1 (01:30):
Oh are you going with a female to the arena
or no? Just three guys? OKAYNA have to worry about
which because because now a lot of these places you
can only bring in a clear bag you know that
you can see through, or a certain size bag they
would let it into the certain arenas.
Speaker 2 (01:44):
Youah, no bags, just a poncho.
Speaker 3 (01:45):
I guess ponchos are.
Speaker 2 (01:48):
Just not very very fashionable. I don't know, I don't
like ponchos.
Speaker 4 (01:51):
But anyway, what would you prefer to protect yourself from
the rain.
Speaker 2 (01:55):
Well, I don't know.
Speaker 3 (01:56):
I just now it's like a list of things I
gotta think and worry about it.
Speaker 2 (01:59):
I may not even go now, It's.
Speaker 5 (02:04):
Fine.
Speaker 2 (02:04):
It's wearing me out.
Speaker 3 (02:05):
Like three, Angela has a very very important duty on Monday. Angela,
how are you? Thanks for holding for so long?
Speaker 5 (02:13):
Yes, morning, guys, Good morning.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
Tell everyone what you have to do Monday.
Speaker 5 (02:19):
I have the jury summons, so yeah.
Speaker 1 (02:24):
Yeah, but maybe maybe they'll tell you not to come.
That's what happened with my last one. I called the
phone number of the morning of and they told me
I was done.
Speaker 5 (02:30):
Yep, yeah, no, they said definitely come monday.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
Oh boy, all right? Do you you know what kind
of case it is? I'm so curious.
Speaker 5 (02:38):
I have no clue. I guess I'll find out Monday
and I may or may not get selected. But I
don't know if you guys have been through.
Speaker 2 (02:46):
It or well, Danielle and Gandhi have, haven't they? Okay?
Speaker 4 (02:51):
I I was lucky because I came in and I
talked about it on the air and immediately got a
notice saying we do not need you for jury duty.
Speaker 2 (02:59):
So that was cool.
Speaker 4 (03:00):
I think that there are things you can if you
really need to get out of it. I'm sure that
there's some stuff you can say, like I believe everyone's guilty. Yeah,
and then you won't get picked.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
I don't know if that works anymore. But what I
was there last time. When I was there last time,
I actually had to go there physically. There was a
question and answer sheet about the timing of the trial,
and they asked, do you have any vacation plans during
this time? Do you have to be at home taking
care of a loved one?
Speaker 2 (03:23):
Whatever?
Speaker 1 (03:24):
So I actually did have vacation plans, so I wrote
that in So that might be a way for you
to get around it, if, like you say, have something going.
Speaker 3 (03:31):
Wait wait, wait, wait, wait, both of you are talking
about how to get out of jury duty. Jury duty
is it's a privilege. It's something you should be doing,
shouldn't you.
Speaker 4 (03:39):
Yes, you're absolutely right. It is our civic duty to
be on a jury. I just if I am on one,
I need it to be like the murder case of
this century.
Speaker 2 (03:47):
Oh my god.
Speaker 5 (03:48):
Ye say it might last like a week, maybe longer?
Speaker 1 (03:54):
Is it petit jury? Is that what you got called for?
Speaker 6 (03:58):
Well, if it's grand jury, prepared to definitely be selected
and stay there for like two twenty consecutive tuesdays. Because
you can't get out of grand jury duty because it's
like your case is all day.
Speaker 3 (04:09):
Yeah, right, see, this is why it should be like
American Idol.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
They should have us vote.
Speaker 4 (04:16):
Oh god, no, when you read Instagram comments sections, you
realize that we should not be allowed to do that.
Speaker 3 (04:22):
Okay. Well, so I mean, how do you feel about
going angela me? Are you feeling like it's going to
be an interesting new thing and maybe you need to
like get it done and put it under your belt done?
Speaker 5 (04:33):
Yeah, I'm fine if I do or don't do it.
I mean, if I get selected, that's fine, but if
I don't, that's fine too.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
Okay, Nope.
Speaker 2 (04:41):
What about work? I mean, is your job cool?
Speaker 3 (04:45):
I mean will they be okay, this is what you legally,
we got to let you do this and they'll be.
Speaker 2 (04:49):
Good to you.
Speaker 1 (04:51):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (04:51):
Yeah, they're good about it. I mean I have to
do payroll on Sunday and then come in Monday after
the jury summons and finish up pay roll and then
you know, move stuff around. But they're they're good about it.
Speaker 2 (05:03):
So okay. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (05:05):
Now, if you are selected, are you.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
Going to angle to be the foreman?
Speaker 5 (05:11):
Oh? No, definitely not.
Speaker 2 (05:13):
I think I would have to.
Speaker 5 (05:15):
I don't know, Yeah, I don't know. If I could
do that, Okay, well.
Speaker 2 (05:19):
