On Friday, we like to dig in and do a
little deep dive into you, into your email and even
your calls and text that we don't get to get
to during the show. So let's jump right in with Michelle,
who sent this an email. It's grateful Friday and I
want to send an email. I want to send a message.
I faithfully listen to you three every morning on the
(00:33):
way to work. You three to make my mornings that
work so much better. I love the conversations you have.
It makes me feel like I'm there with you guys.
Speaker 1 (00:41):
Okay, you we want that.
Speaker 2 (00:43):
So thank you for letting us know that that's the goal.
Thanks again for taking the time to read this. I
really hope to hear it on air. Take care. Okay,
so you're hearing it in the podcast, Michelle, at least
there's that. We also have this from Louise ours have
a lined This is so cool, guys. I listened to Murphy,
(01:04):
Sam and Jody faithfully while living in San Antonio. I
left San Antonio for business for a couple of months,
and when I returned, you were not there. After you left,
I changed radio stations. Fast forward a few more months,
and I was traveling through Alabama, Mississippi, across the country
and heard you again. Now for a few years later,
(01:24):
I'm in West Tennessee. We've only been here a few weeks,
and I was flipping through and I found the one
I like the station, and then I heard Jody doing
a commercial. Sure enough, the next time I heard. The
next thing I heard was for Murphy, Sam and Jody.
So happy I can now listen to my favorite show again.
Speaker 1 (01:41):
Ah, thank you?
Speaker 2 (01:42):
Is Phoebe in college? Question Mark? Has Taylor graduated? Sam?
How old is the grand baby now? And how is Elvis?
Speaker 3 (01:50):
Oh? Lord?
Speaker 2 (01:51):
Looking forward to radio again? Stay well, Louise, Thank.
Speaker 1 (01:55):
You you sweet. That's awesome to hear from you.
Speaker 3 (01:58):
Well.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
So, our youngest daughter Phoebe is in college. She's sophomore
this year. Our oldest daughter Taylor graduated in May, and
so she's tying psychology, taking a gap year and then
she'll go get her master's in psychology and the update.
Speaker 2 (02:12):
Can we share the update on Phoebe too. You think
she'd be okay with us sharing that she is. I'm
so excited for her. I don't think we've even told
you this, Sam, so we'll tell Louise and you. At
the same time, Phoebe has chosen a major. She has
switched to something that she really finally feels and identifies with,
and we think she's going to be really happy with it.
(02:32):
And she's in the school of music now.
Speaker 3 (02:35):
Oh cool.
Speaker 2 (02:36):
She took a summer class about lyrics and they did
all kinds of different Like the first they did the
music from the nineteen twenties and breaking down lyrics and
how songs were put together.
Speaker 1 (02:46):
Then it was basically a song a decade. They did
a song a decade over one hundred years.
Speaker 2 (02:51):
Yea and yeah, so it went all the way to
like a Taylor Swift song like Fortnite was one that
they studied too. Wow, this is yeah being put together
in all.
Speaker 1 (03:00):
This really is a perfect blend of her personal passion,
you know, kind of joining her college career. Yeah, because
she's been struggling training, as a lot of people do.
I mean, it's very difficult because you go in thinking
I've got to pick the one thing I'm gonna do
for the rest of my life, which is of course
not possible.
Speaker 2 (03:16):
No.
Speaker 1 (03:16):
I mean, I guess it's probable if you've got a
personal passion, but it's you know, sometimes for some people
it's just difficult. And so now that she's in a
place where she's already a music fanatic. She plays guitar,
both electric and acoustics, she sings, She's now decided, Okay,
this is the path. I'm very exciting.
Speaker 2 (03:34):
About things in music and in songs that go over
my head because as far as music goes, I'm just
a consumer. I just enjoy it.
Speaker 3 (03:41):
She's talking music theory.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
She starts talking about all content stuff with Murphy, you know,
and you guys start talking about all that stuff that
I almost don't want to know how it's made, you know,
I just want to enjoy it. But she gets really
into it.
Speaker 1 (03:55):
I know, just enough to be, you know, to be
in a basic conversation about chords, those kind of things
and arrangements. But music theory, I mean, that's deep anyway,
even for somebody who is a professional musician. Music theories
it's pretty challenging in details.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
Yeah, Now, when she decided to switch it was right
at the beginning of the semester, and so it was
it was crunch time for her to she joined some classes,
like she signed up for a new class ten minutes
before it started and she ran in true story and
she said she didn't understand a lot what they were
covering because they were already underway when she got there,
(04:30):
she said, but the professor was so fantastic. She walked
up to him after and said, I'm new, I just joined.
When can I do office hours with you to get
caught up? And he goes, let's catch up right now,
and she said that he gave her a lesson right
there about and it was about reading music but also
crunch time. She I'm going over board, Louise. She she
had to submit some videos of her playing, her singing,
(04:54):
all of that so they would know kind of where
she is, what she's got that's going on. So that
is the date, and let's let's update on Hollis tam Oh.
Speaker 3 (05:02):
Yeah, Hollis is still there. He's five. He's actually in
kindergarten this year, yes, and I no, no, what was
it last week? We had Grandparents' Day. So they have
sent him in rolls with Hollis.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
Are you hoping that you're going to get to grandparents
Day another part of the year school year.
Speaker 3 (05:15):
I think it's only once a year, isn't it.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
Oh, well, where Taylor and Phoebe went to school, it
was twice a year.
Speaker 1 (05:20):
Well that's because it was donuts with dad and muffins
with mom.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
I thought we did it twice though, Anoh, that's parents,
that's not grandparents. I know. I'm just maybe I don't
know what the grandparents thing was. You're right, maybe grandparents
is just wants to.
Speaker 3 (05:31):
Well, you'll know one day.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
I will know one.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
Yeah, and then you know, louis your question on Elphis
and for anybody that doesn't know who Louise is referencing there,
Elphis joins us when Santa Claus joins us every single year.
You know, on Murphy Salmon Jody.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
He brings Elphis when you know in Elphis is his
lead elf.
Speaker 3 (05:51):
Basically, yeah, he rides with him in the sleigh.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
And he's fine. And yes, you know, temper Sam still
picks on him, you know, because of his size not
but you know they still you know, they kiss and
make up every holiday season.
Speaker 3 (06:04):
I think what you're trying to say Murphy as he's
short tempered.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
It's a good thing he's not here to answer that.
Speaker 2 (06:10):
It's anyway, we love hearing from you. Let us know
where you're listening and keep it coming anytime.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
So, I think we missed a voicemailer too. You will
to check those two so you can answer those. Here
we go.
Speaker 4 (06:24):
Yeah, I was just calling in about the central perk
the couch. If you notice in any of the episodes,
if you look real close, there is a reserved sign
on the table in front of it.
Speaker 1 (06:35):
Thank you, oh from the TV show Friends. As a
Friends fanatic, thank you for the first.
Speaker 2 (06:41):
You can't notice everything in that apartment and coffee shop,
can you? You're watching the characters.
Speaker 1 (06:45):
I'm have to go back and look now.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
Yeah, I don't.
Speaker 3 (06:47):
Remember, because y'all were wondering why every time they got
there the sofa was open and nobody else jumping in unrealistic.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
Yeah, to expect a sofa like that to be open
in a coffee shop in New York.
Speaker 1 (06:58):
But see even that I would have even never cross
my mind. It's just like it's the sofa that they
said on. It never crossed my mind that it would
ever be occupied by somebody else, although it seems like
there might have been an episode or two where they
made fun of those kinds of things where they there
was an episode where they went in and somebody else was.
Speaker 2 (07:14):
On these I think that was addressed.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
One, and everybody stopped and looked around. So what do
we do here?
Speaker 2 (07:18):
What do we do here? So cute? And the reason
we even told that story, so thank you for that voicemail,
is because the new CEO of Starbucks. We know they
have a new ceo. One of the things that he
wants to do, what they plan to do, and I
think this is smart, is to make the coffee house,
their coffee houses more comfortable, more like a nineties coffee
(07:39):
house where you would just go really hang out. Not
that we don't already do that in all kinds of
coffee houses, but I will tell you, if I'm there
to do more than pick up and leave, if I'm
there to meet a friend, my first thing is to
look for somewhere comfortable. Yeah, and look, and it's not
a hard edged chair with a wire and back. You know,
it's something that I can get cozy in, right, it
(08:00):
really is. So hopefully, I mean, Starbucks will be changing
apparently according to the new cu.
Speaker 1 (08:05):
Well, and I'm sure every coffee house will follow that
trend if they haven't already correct. I still do believe though,
that you know what changed that was COVID because you
wound up the spacing and reducing the amount of furniture,
the furnishings and all that kind of stuff. Actually, there
was even a time period where you couldn't go sit
in most coffee houses. You had to get everything to go.
So now that we're kind of going back in the
(08:27):
other direction, you know, it needs.
Speaker 2 (08:28):
To be more comfortable. Give me a reason to stay.
And I will say this, thinking about spatially, I think
they've made a lot of correct decisions, although it does
need to pivot, it needs to change. The last time
I was in a Starbucks, I ran in to pick
something up and I had some work to do, so
I just, you know, I sat down and opened my laptop.
But I was at a big, long, uncomfortable table. I
(08:50):
mean it was and it was a workstation table where
twelve people could have like six on one side and
six on the other. And I was there and there
were a couple of other people. We were spread out
but all sharing the same table, and it's that's fine
it but it just wasn't the most comfortable thing in
the world. It was very functional, and it was right.
They were using the amount of space that they had correctly.
Speaker 3 (09:12):
Did they say if they're going to add stages so
that they can have performers that sing Smeley Cat, that'd be.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
A good thing for a corner, wouldn't it be ya?
Speaker 1 (09:20):
Reach out to us anytime. We always love to hear
from you. You can call us, you can text, and
of course, just like you heard the voicemail there, even
when we're not here, you can leave us a message
at eight seven seven three one zero four MSJ and
