Speaker 1 (00:00):
Welcome to the Murphy Salmon Jody Daily Show Podcast.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
What's the craziest place you've ever seen or found a snake?
Speaker 3 (00:09):
It happens you guys.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
I know you've seen social media blow up in the
summertime with people, you know, finding snakes in ice chests,
on boats and things like that. I mean, snakes get
into places and they sit.
Speaker 1 (00:22):
I've been surprised by them before. I don't know that
i've ever actually, you know, found them in your places.
The one that surprised me was when I was a
kid mowing the grass. It was my chore for the
summer one. It was a push mower and the grass
was very thick. And as I'm as I'm going through,
I'm in the mower, it just comes to a complete
halt ah man and I pull the mower back. Now
(00:42):
I got him. He was gone. He was not a
threat to me that he Yeah, but he was kind
of big.
Speaker 4 (00:52):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
I don't know, I don't remember what. I don't think
he was a poisonous snake big, but he was big.
Speaker 3 (00:57):
What about weird spots snake in the boot?
Speaker 4 (01:00):
Yeah. But one of Sammy and Will my oldest one
of their favorite stories is one time when the three
of us were walking along a ditch, you know.
Speaker 3 (01:07):
Just whatever, dad with his boys.
Speaker 4 (01:10):
Yeah, and I was leading the way and there was
a snake right in front of me, coiled up and
it's like walking along hey, and you see it? And
I jumped over it and went And So if you
ever asked him about the snake story, though, laugh about
the time I screamed like a girl and jumped over
a snake.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
Okay, scream like a what Anyway, I'll say this. You
heard about this. This is the story that happened this week.
Kids are getting back into school. A football player was
at practice a high school and he felt like there
was something wrong with his helmet, you know, something not
finning right too, And then he felt something moving around.
He had been practicing and he had had the helmet
(01:48):
on for about an hour.
Speaker 3 (01:50):
He takes it off.
Speaker 2 (01:51):
They inspected and they found a two foot long cotton
mouth hiding beneath the padding.
Speaker 1 (01:56):
That is a venomous snake.
Speaker 3 (01:58):
It's a venomous snake.
Speaker 2 (01:59):
So they actually the shelter, the local shelter was reminding
everybody pay attention to your outdoor gear, especially if you
get as you're getting back to school. All this stuff snakes.
Speaker 1 (02:11):
So the helmets were being stored outside.
Speaker 2 (02:14):
Don't know about don't know the answer to that question,
but or the snake got into wherever the helmets were freaky.
Speaker 1 (02:20):
I mean, he's lucky. I know, a venomous bike to
the head would have been really bad. You think, yeah,
I'm glad he's okay. That really, I'm gonna have chills
for the rest of the day.
Speaker 3 (02:31):
Carry let's get started. Coming up at six fifty three
Things to notice starts your day.
Speaker 1 (02:37):
And next, Sam's the food dude.
Speaker 4 (02:39):
Yeah, we got a new formula for goldfish crackers.
Speaker 5 (02:44):
Sam's always up on the new eats. He's the food dude.
Speaker 4 (02:47):
The folks said goldfish crackers, say they are finally giving
us the cracker that has been the most requested in
their history. What I didn't, Okay, a gluten free goldfish cracker.
Speaker 3 (02:59):
Oh that makes sense.
Speaker 4 (03:01):
Gluten free flour blend that they're using. They're using the
same cheese. They said, you're not. They can't tell. Really
worked hard on this to get it the same, so
you won't notice any difference. Still gonna be baked, not fried.
Speaker 1 (03:12):
I think that that's smart because you're talking about one
of the most loved snacks that there is and as
little kids, I mean that's an easy one. That and
cheerios you put them in.
Speaker 3 (03:20):
Yeah, you're the only kid who can't have them.
Speaker 4 (03:22):
Yeah, And for right now, this is coming out in
the fall, and for right now, it's just gonna be
the basic cheese cracker. It's not the flavor blasted or
the pizza or the Mickey Mouse shape. Okay, Oreo is
bringing back a couple of cookies is fall the uh well,
obviously the Halloween cookie where they turn the cream orange
cute has different like snakes and bats and stuff on
the cookie. But they're also bringing back the apple pie
(03:44):
a la mode.
Speaker 3 (03:45):
I never I don't think we had it.
Speaker 4 (03:48):
It sounds good, but it's actually available now at some stores.
It's hitting stores already. Two vanilla cookies and the filling
is a combination of apple pie and vanilla ice cream flavors.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
They still have not made an ore and all these
flavors to top the original Oreo.
Speaker 3 (04:05):
It's still the best cookie that's sold.
Speaker 4 (04:08):
Yeah, it is. It is.
Speaker 2 (04:10):
It's a class I mean they don't have to do
all this extra stuff. I'm sure it makes them millions
to do it. Because we all want to taste the
new flavors.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
Well, yeah, I mean it keeps the brand it's focused on.
Every time you can try a new version of an oreo.
You might just pick up a pack of originals too
while you're at it.
Speaker 4 (04:24):
Yeah, and just think about the one you would that
they're trying in the lab that we don't get the test.
I bet there's some really good one.
Speaker 3 (04:31):
Well leftovers, you know.
Speaker 4 (04:33):
Snoop Dogg has an ice cream brand called Doctor Bombay.
I've gotten the pints before and they're really good. Yeah,
they're actually pretty good. Of course he's branching out now
into popsickles all right, wait, which he's gonna call Snoop Sickles.
Speaker 3 (04:48):
Of course, I love that, of course, Snoop.
Speaker 4 (04:51):
The first one out is the one that looks just
like a bomb pop. It's a he said, it's razzed
out cherry and lime sherbet.
Speaker 3 (04:57):
And it's red, white and blue good stuff.
Speaker 4 (05:00):
And on the box it says pop it like it's hot.
Speaker 3 (05:04):
He can say that, I'm not.
Speaker 1 (05:07):
That's right.
Speaker 3 (05:07):
Excellent, Thank you, food dude.
Speaker 1 (05:09):
Jody has your Hollywood Outsider coming up next.
Speaker 5 (05:13):
Jody's Hollywood Outsider.
Speaker 3 (05:15):
We've been telling you about all the movies that are
premiering on the big screen between now and the end
of the year, and we'll keep reminding you because it's
really fun, Like La La Land this weekend in theaters.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
He me movies that are coming back.
Speaker 3 (05:28):
And you have back older movies. So the streaming services
come through.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
So right now on Netflix, there's a lot of feel
good movies that you can just you know, revisit one
from two thousand and four that everybody loves It always
feels good, thirteen going on thirty. I don't know what
Lucy said to you about me, but I want you
to know that, Oh, whoever.
Speaker 3 (05:47):
That was she was talking about, Jennifer Garner, wasn't me.
Speaker 4 (05:50):
That's a great movie.
Speaker 3 (05:51):
It is a great movie.
Speaker 2 (05:52):
And do you know that I only saw it one
time and it gave me those good feels. And I
think Rick Spreethel was a part of it. Was she
in love with Rick or something like that? Jesse's Girl
made up? Ruffalo, Yeah, one that Murphy loved and a
documentary you swear you wanted to watch again is in
their feel good section right now from twenty twenty four,
The Greatest Night in Pop one two.
Speaker 1 (06:14):
Yeah, the making of We Are the World So Great,
which is an incredible story. I don't even know that
you could pull that many artists together today to do
that the way they Lionel Ritchie and Quincy Jones did.
Speaker 3 (06:24):
So.
Speaker 2 (06:24):
A lot of good, feel good stuff to stream right now.
Coming up next, teachers, getting real about how you really
feel about open house Night. Teachers, why is open house
night or open house Day a bundle of nerves for you?
We have asked on our Instagram, Facebook, all the socials,
and you have responded.
Speaker 3 (06:44):
Marissa said, it's like a dog and pony show.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
As an elective teacher, it feels like we're on display
and we're being measured up. Who's the coolest, Whose class
is the funniest, who can dazzle everyone the best.
Speaker 3 (06:55):
It's just a lot of pressure, that's Marissa.
Speaker 4 (06:58):
Yeah, because you're parents, you.
Speaker 2 (07:00):
Know, it's the first time I ever realized that when
we were sitting in the little desks when our kids
were in like first grade, and we're at open house
and I was. I ended up talking to one of
the teachers the next day and she was like, so
glad that's over, and I was like, why I thought?
I said, I was it was awesome. She was like,
I'm so nervous. I never thought A lot of parents
don't realize it's difficult for you teachers.
Speaker 1 (07:21):
Well, it is a our skill set is working one
on one with kids. Not everybody is comfortable addressing a
crowd like that. I completely understand respect that.
Speaker 3 (07:30):
I never thought of it that way.
Speaker 4 (07:31):
Melody says, just that exact thing, because talking in front
of the kids is nothing talking to a group of adults.
And the emotion she has is.
Speaker 3 (07:39):
Like, ah, yeah, I hear you, I hear you.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
Carrie says, it's like opening night of a Broadway production.
You got to give your all to a new group
of students while doing a curtain call for those who
you've had before. I just want to say, hi, Yeah,
thirty years and I still get butterflies. But that's a
great way to describe it.
Speaker 3 (07:57):
It is the teachers are a good storytelling.
Speaker 1 (07:59):
Well, because you know, even though it's because again parents
naturally want to go I'm such a such kid up
right after and you especially when they're running it like
a school day where there's not enough room to have
a conversation, because that's really what you're one on one
should be for. But they still try to accommodate. They
know that, I mean, they know that even though parents
(08:19):
shouldn't do that, they're going to do that. So that's interesting, Carrie.
Speaker 2 (08:22):
Another thought that I wanted to just say every time,
every single time we ever went to open house, I
never felt like I was judging a teacher for the
way they were behaving or what they were saying.
Speaker 3 (08:33):
No, honestly, my head was is this where she sits?
Speaker 4 (08:38):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (08:38):
It was like I was in my child's body, thinking
this is what her day is.
Speaker 6 (08:43):
Like.
Speaker 4 (08:43):
I just liked seeing like, oh, look there's this pencil box.
Speaker 1 (08:47):
Yeah, I can tell you where my head was, especially
you know, elementary middle school, literally trying to get out
of the desk and walk. The desk would get up
with me.
Speaker 3 (08:57):
Teachers, keep it coming.
Speaker 2 (08:58):
We want to hear from you about open how eight
seven seven three one zero four MSJ coming up next.
Three things to Know Today.
Speaker 5 (09:08):
Three things to Know Today.
Speaker 2 (09:09):
Number one, A single winning ticket in last night's billion
dollar powerball drawing was sold in Quincy, Illinois, So the
massive jackpot has a cash value of more than four
hundred and fifty million dollars. Somebody's life has changed. I
don't even know if they know it yet. Right, Yeah,
it's the largest Powerball prize won so far, and it's
(09:31):
the eighth largest in the history of the game.
Speaker 4 (09:33):
Curious to see if it's a one person or a group.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
Correct Number two. I think you told us about this
recently a couple days ago. Even Foodude about seven up
changing in formula, the first time they've changed it in
more than fifteen years. So instead of it being a
lemon lime flavor, it's going to be more lime forward.
Speaker 3 (09:51):
And the new.
Speaker 2 (09:51):
Formula, of course, has been tested. They do testing with
groups and everybody says, look, it is brighter, it seems
a little more crisp. It's a chain, but it's subtle,
stronger lime aroma, which is a big part of taste.
So so far everybody's liking it. So once you see
the new packaging, it all rolls out nationwide this month.
Speaker 4 (10:10):
The new seven is going to come in regular and
cherry flavors.
Speaker 3 (10:13):
Nice and number three.
Speaker 2 (10:15):
The Field of Dreams game and Dyersville, Iowa, happening tonight
between the Philadelphia Phillies and the Minnesota Twins, and of
course they built a new eight thousand seat stadium.
Speaker 3 (10:28):
Tonight's game one from the movie really wasn't going to
cut it correct. If it's not rained out, it'll be
broadcast tonight. By the way, on Netflix, you're up to date.
Speaker 5 (10:37):
Three things to know today.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
There's a sort of surprise party being pulled off from
our family this week, and I think Murphy is a
little confused that it's the.
Speaker 1 (10:46):
Most confusing thing in the world. Jody, Actually, how can
it be sort of a surprise?
Speaker 2 (10:50):
So our oldest daughter, Taylor is having a birthday on Friday,
and her best friend in the world, Phoebe, our youngest daughter,
is throwing a party for her, a birthday part at
her apartment. And so the sort of secret is what
the party is, who's going to be there, what the
party is, Is there a theme?
Speaker 3 (11:09):
Like the party is a secret.
Speaker 2 (11:11):
Taylor was just told go away around four pm and
don't come back till seven, And so we know what
the theme is and what's being planned and all of that.
Speaker 3 (11:20):
You know, I even have a part to help in it.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
Yeah. But but Jody, when you told me about what
was going on, your thing is yeah, and I'm gonna
be a decoy. I'm like, okay, Well, if you're gonna
be a decoy, then obviously this is a surprise party.
Was anything that's going on, yeah.
Speaker 3 (11:34):
I must have. It's not a decoy. I'm the distraction.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
So for everything that was happening through this planning process,
I'm like, but you can't do that because that's gonna
Taylor's gonna find out what's going on. Aren't you the decoy?
Well yeah, and the decoy? Well, but she knows about
the party. I don't understand.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
I'm not a decoy. I'm just the distraction. So I'm
excited to get to spend time with her. Phoebe wants
Taylor gone from like four till seven till the party starts.
So I called Taylor and I'm like, hey, I want
to see you on your birthday anyway, you know, just
you and me. Let's go hang out and I want
to spend time with you and we can go have
coffee or whatnot. She was like great, she said, Actually,
I've really been wanting to get my nails done, so
(12:13):
I'm taking her on her birthday to get We're going
to do nails, get our nails done side by side.
Speaker 4 (12:17):
Is she the kind that would question you, like, hey,
so what do you know about this point?
Speaker 5 (12:21):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (12:21):
She won't. I don't think what do you think, Murphy.
Speaker 1 (12:23):
I think she's like me. I think she likes surprises.
She doesn't want to know. She's smart enough to figure
it out, but she doesn't want to know. I think
that this is I mean, now that I get it,
it's like, okay, kind of a brilliant thing, truly on
Phoebe's party. It makes it a lot easier to plan
a party that's not a surprise party. It's got the
surprise element to it. It's like, but you're not surprising
the whole thing, because those things always wind up leaking
(12:45):
at some point. I got really lucky on the Jody's
done a couple of surprise birthday parties for me and
it's never leaked. So I don't know how you've gotten
that lucky. But there's always somebody that slips and says
one thing like Okay, i'll see you next week.
Speaker 4 (12:58):
One of the sweet.
Speaker 2 (12:59):
Yeah yeah, One of the sweetest parts of this though,
has been watching Phoebe put so much effort in planning
into this. This is going to be fantastic for Taylor,
and it's like, it's like, you love her so much,
you're trying to give her this incredible day.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
That's not a surprise party, and you're not a decoy.
Speaker 3 (13:16):
No.
Speaker 1 (13:16):
Coming up at seven fifty, Jody has three things to
know today and next your morning picked me.
Speaker 3 (13:21):
Up, Morning, Picked me Up time.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
You know, there's a bee problem, a honeybee problem in
the world, and there's one woman who slowly but surely
is making it better.
Speaker 3 (13:31):
This is so cute. You know there's a B problem.
Speaker 1 (13:34):
Yeah, but the B problem is there are fewer Yeah.
Speaker 4 (13:37):
I learned about that in the B movie, that animated
movie with Jerry Gerry Seinfeld.
Speaker 3 (13:41):
Ye, there was a lot of education in that movie.
Speaker 4 (13:43):
Yeah, that's funny, but you learned that there was a
B problem.
Speaker 2 (13:46):
It was like a science class. Yeah, I know, really funny.
And they used George Michael's Freedom.
Speaker 3 (13:51):
In that movie. I remember that. Okay.
Speaker 2 (13:53):
So her name is Dorothy. Her husband was a bee keeper,
so she knew about it. He had a garden. She
noticed over time that their fewer bees were coming, and
that she noticed the sound was gone and she had
missed it. And one of the big problems here is
that they're looking for water these hot, hot summers, natural
water sources dry up, they stop looking to they stop
(14:18):
pollinating and they're just looking to survive and looking for
water and they can't find clean water sources, and then
sometimes they dehydrate, sometimes they die and then they of
course they never make it back to the hive. That's
one of the that's one of the big problems. It's
pesticides too, it's pesticides too, but lack of water sometimes.
So she said, okay, she does pottery, and she thought,
(14:41):
I'm going to make these little petals that can hold
fresh water, that look like flowers. Put them in the
garden and see if the bees come.
Speaker 3 (14:49):
And it worked.
Speaker 2 (14:51):
Now she had trial and error, like she made them
too deep one time, and the bees can't They would
drown in that like a bird could drink out of that.
But learned to make them more shallow, and she learned
to make them like sort of course, so the bees
wouldn't slide in a completely. Over the years, got it
right and you can buy them now. They're called like
(15:12):
bee blossoms, dots bees blossoms. They come in a box
of like four and they're colorful and beautiful. They come
with the steaks. You stick them in a garden and
it's like watch the bees come, listen and for the
bees to come.
Speaker 3 (15:26):
Isn't that cool?
Speaker 4 (15:27):
I'm gonna look this one up.
Speaker 1 (15:28):
But you have to put the water in it. Oh yeah,
you do.
Speaker 3 (15:30):
Fresh water every day.
Speaker 2 (15:31):
Put a little fresh water every morning, and you know,
slowly but surely. And she didn't even want she was
like doing it for her neighbors, doing it for herself.
And her daughter was like, Mom, We've got to get
this online. And she was like, okay, just do it
good for you can look it up. Yeah, dots bees
blossoms up.
Speaker 1 (15:47):
Next, Jody has another Hollywood Outsider.
Speaker 5 (15:52):
Trending now Jody's Hollywood Outsider.
Speaker 2 (15:54):
There's a new movie that's getting some pretty good reviews,
a fantasy about a suburban neighborhood that it's transported back
to the age of dinosaurs, starring Anne Hathaway and Ewan McGregor,
called The End of Oak Street.
Speaker 5 (16:09):
I think that our neighborhood, wait for it, our hopes.
Speaker 3 (16:15):
Our street move.
Speaker 5 (16:18):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (16:19):
Okay. So it's one of those movies that once you
see it, you can't unsee.
Speaker 4 (16:24):
It because the trailer it's like, what the.
Speaker 3 (16:26):
Dinosaurs look incredible.
Speaker 2 (16:28):
This is the new one of the big new movies
that's coming out that's landing.
Speaker 3 (16:32):
This week in the theater.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
But they do say, as good as it looks, it
still has to take on Spider Man.
Speaker 3 (16:38):
Oh yeah, Hi, my name is Peter Parker, and this
one is doing so well kid. Have you seen it yet?
Speaker 2 (16:47):
No?
Speaker 4 (16:47):
I am not.
Speaker 2 (16:47):
Okay, you gotta go. You have to see it in
the theater. I think it'll hang out hang on for
a little while. Yeah, because it's also getting some of
the best Marvel reviews.
Speaker 4 (16:55):
And by the way, the Oak Street Movie is not
the only dinosaur movie this weekend.
Speaker 3 (16:59):
Oh that's right right, Patrol Dyno too. This sweet Thank
you for that reminder.
Speaker 2 (17:05):
Also, moving over to streaming, Seinfeld is going to be
sticking around on Netflix for a while. They just signed
on for another five years. That's how much people like
to put that on and just laugh again. Its stream
The numbers are really good.
Speaker 4 (17:20):
By the way, it's seven fifty three things to know today.
Speaker 3 (17:25):
Back to school time.
Speaker 2 (17:26):
And we have asked teachers, but not just teachers, I
mean anybody in a school administration. If open house is
crazy for you, if it makes if it brings on
anxiety and nerves, we want to hear about it, you know,
wanted you teachers to kind of explain it to any
parents listening. Why open house can be you know, difficult
for you. That's school nurses, that's everybody. Alicia said this,
(17:48):
it depends on the grade level. For elementary school, kids
want to see their teachers and the families want to
get familiar with the classroom, but those teachers are usually
only meeting between twenty five to seventy sets of parents.
Max can pair that to middle school meeting one hundred
and high school teachers meeting one hundred and twenty plus.
Speaker 1 (18:06):
Yep, where classes change and you're saying the same thing
multiple times.
Speaker 2 (18:09):
Personally, Having taught only high school, I feel like open
house is much more beneficial a few weeks in or
a month into school. As a teacher, it's more beneficial
to know who the students are. When meeting parents, I
feel like I have the same three minute conversation one
hundred times in two hours, and it feels impersonal.
Speaker 3 (18:28):
Just my thoughts, that's Alicia.
Speaker 1 (18:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (18:31):
Yeah, it's like the earlier that the school schedules it,
the harder it is for you to really feel like
you're representing.
Speaker 1 (18:37):
That makes perfect sense to me.
Speaker 2 (18:39):
Yeah, when we went to Taylor and Phoebe's open House
Murphy when they were in high school. I remember one
of the teachers saying thank you for being here because
there are fewer parents who show up.
Speaker 1 (18:51):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (18:51):
At that age, you're like, oh, they got it. It's
high school.
Speaker 1 (18:54):
We even did junior and senior years just because and
that's where it really does start to roll off.
Speaker 3 (18:59):
Really the only ones here.
Speaker 1 (19:02):
Caitlin says in this I don't think is necessarily just
open house related, but she says this is her first
full year teaching special education and she has She says,
I have such high expectations of myself and I want
to make an impact with these kids.
Speaker 2 (19:15):
Yeah, and so open house is also you're feeling the
pressure on that night.
Speaker 4 (19:20):
Yeah, got one from Sarah here. She says, it's kind
of like opening night for a nine month production. You're
expected to look nice, have the coolest goodies, smile your
face off, know all your lines, and maintain this for hours.
Speaker 3 (19:33):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (19:33):
It's exhausting. It's fun and exciting, but exhausting.
Speaker 3 (19:37):
Yeah, just something to remember.
Speaker 2 (19:39):
At open house, the teachers are feeling one hundred million
pieces of anxiety and they feel responsible, Well, I'm going
to give you a good experience.
Speaker 1 (19:45):
And they've generally put a lot of prep into it.
Speaker 2 (19:47):
Yes, all right, thank you, keep it coming. Reach out
to us on Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, all the places coming up.
Speaker 1 (19:53):
In seven fifty, Jody has three things to note today.
Speaker 2 (19:58):
Three things to know Todaynumber one, this term new school year.
Knew you actually does apply to teenagers apparently, so pay
attention moms and dads this time of the year. This
is when teenagers basically have that chance to rebrand themselves
and often do with their clothing.
Speaker 4 (20:14):
Yeah, the coming of the summary.
Speaker 3 (20:15):
That's right. Looking for a specific vibe, whether it's athletic
or basic or preppy, or even alt or whimsical. This
is what happens for teenagers, and it's a.
Speaker 2 (20:24):
Good fresh start when you walk through those doors at
day one or those first few weeks at least. Number two,
what if it was doctor's orders for you to watch
more sports?
Speaker 3 (20:33):
Huh Yeah, apparently it is good for your mental health.
Speaker 2 (20:36):
Following sports can boost your happiness, reduce feelings of loneliness,
creates a sense of connection and community, even if it's
with complete strangers. Looking forward to a game or a
match can activate your brain's reward system, take you away
from everyday stresses, and you know screens.
Speaker 4 (20:54):
Well, is this as good as long as your team's winning?
Speaker 3 (20:56):
Well, yeah, they do say obviously in the mental health world,
if it can controls your mood. If your team is
losing and it's affecting your sleep or relationships, you need
to step back.
Speaker 2 (21:06):
And number three Today is National Prosecco Day. I love prosecco.
Do you know what it is. It's a light, sparkling
Italian wine with fruity notes, fresh bubbles, and a lower
price than champagne. Sometimes when you're having a mimosa, you
might be having prosecco instead of champagne and you didn't
even know it.
Speaker 5 (21:25):
You're in the note three.
Speaker 3 (21:27):
Thanks to know Today, join the conversation.
Speaker 2 (21:32):
We want to hear from you, and when we're not here,
you can leave us voice memos and messages eight seven
seven three one zero four MSJ.
Speaker 5 (21:40):
Never miss a call Murphy, Sam and Jody twenty four
hour voicemail.
Speaker 7 (21:46):
Hey guys, it's Valerie.
Speaker 6 (21:47):
I love hearing your conversation about the school nurse. Such
a near and dear person to me in our school system.
My son has a lot of medical challenges, has a
heavy medical history fourteen surgeries in the first seven years
of his life and his school nurse. All the school
(22:08):
nurses he's ever had, regardless of elementary school or middle
school now, have just been incredible. They know our history,
they know his allergies. He's a peanut kid too. We
have to watch food allergies every day. We have to
watch for surgical repercussions. All those things are just so important.
And I love the shout out the nurses best of
(22:29):
luck to everybody as they started a new school year.
Love the show, Love listening to you guys every day,
have a great one to take care of.
Speaker 3 (22:36):
Thank you, Valerie.
Speaker 1 (22:37):
Thank you.
Speaker 3 (22:38):
That is a whole different level. When your kid has
all of that, you make it your mission to know
that nurse you do well.
Speaker 1 (22:45):
And that nurse is really kind of on your team
at that point because you're trying to do your work
day and I think you've got another set of eyes
to help you out.
Speaker 2 (22:52):
One of my best friends is a school nurse and
anytime I talked to her in the school year, so
start telling me about her kids, and she means different
kids in her school that she sees a lot, you know,
like the ones with diabetes and the ones with a
pomp and stuff like that Murphy.
Speaker 3 (23:05):
Yeah, she calls them her kids.
Speaker 1 (23:06):
Let's check another.
Speaker 7 (23:09):
Hey, you guys have a great platform for public service announcement,
So would you just remind people that when they see
a school bus stopped, they need to stop, even if
they're in the opposite plane going the opposite direction. I've
seen this so many times recently, and it's six fifteen
(23:30):
in the morning and it's dark and you will not
see a child. So please remind people to stop. Thanks, y'all,
have a great day.
Speaker 3 (23:38):
I don't think we need to remind them. I think
you just did a great job.
Speaker 2 (23:43):
And you know, when that happens, it's just somebody who's
in their own head not paying attention. I saw a
school bus the other day with the you know, the
little stop signs open, and so I stopped. But because
it's like, oh, back to school time, I'm on a
high alert for it, I stopped way too far back.
I just went ahead, stopped way far back, and people
around me were like, what do you yes see the arms?
Speaker 3 (24:04):
What are you doing? Back to school time coming up?
Speaker 1 (24:08):
Jody has another Hollywood outsider.
Speaker 2 (24:11):
Earlier, when we were talking about that football player who
high school football player who found a venomous snake hiding
behind the padding of his helmet after he had worn
it for an hour. That's insane talking about all the
places that you know snakes hide and where you everybody
has a snake encounter.
Speaker 1 (24:29):
I don't know if you've ever had a snake hiding incident.
Have you ever had one? Surprise you?
Speaker 2 (24:34):
Yes, but it wasn't that. It's not the outdoor. Oh
my gosh, there's a snake in my boot situation, toilet, No, no, no, no,
you know this story unless you.
Speaker 3 (24:43):
Just forgot it. My ex the.
Speaker 2 (24:45):
Person I was with exactly, was biological sciences major in
college and he was getting his PhD. And it was
all he had snakes, but not all over the place,
like mostly there weren't.
Speaker 4 (24:58):
Live snakes though, were they?
Speaker 7 (24:59):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (24:59):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (25:01):
So one afternoon I was at his apartment and he
was not there yet, and I was looking for some
iced tea in the fridge and I moved some stuff
out of the way.
Speaker 3 (25:10):
The tea was in the back.
Speaker 2 (25:11):
I moved some stuff onto the counter to get to
the tea, and by the time I turned around to
pour my tea, what I had moved it was a bag.
I didn't know what was in it and it started moving.
He had kept us. He had put a snake in
a bag, a snake bag in the refrigerator.
Speaker 1 (25:25):
Which keeps them from moving because they go dormant because
they're and.
Speaker 3 (25:29):
He explained the same thing to me.
Speaker 2 (25:30):
It's like Jody, of course he's going to start moving
because it was hot out in the kitchen.
Speaker 4 (25:35):
First in the fridge, I just wanted iced tea.
Speaker 2 (25:38):
I put that snake back in that refrigerator so fast
because it was big and scary, and I thought it
was going to get away from me. No, anyway, commonplaces
that snakes hide wood and debris piles, that's a big place.
They're just looking for protection from heat from predators. They're
just trying to chill, lax and feel safe they can
(26:00):
sleep or whatever. Tall grass, of course, dense bushes, which
is what's happened to me. And when they do that,
that's that's what they're doing. They're trying to protect themselves.
They're not trying to sneak up on you and hide.
Speaker 1 (26:11):
You know, they actually don't want to be near you.
Speaker 2 (26:14):
Technically, no water features like ponds and landscape features. If
you have like a deck or whatever, that's a perfect
little place for them to sliver in.
Speaker 4 (26:23):
We have you know, the pond in the back of
my house. Yes, people put canoes on the or little
pedal boats. Oh. You lift it up and there's there's
always a snake under it.
Speaker 3 (26:32):
Right, It's a perfect hiding place, so beware.
Speaker 1 (26:35):
Up next another Hollywood Outsider.
Speaker 5 (26:38):
Jody's Hollywood Outsider.
Speaker 2 (26:40):
This highly anticipated sequel film years later from the social
network about the beginnings of Facebook, is called The Social Reckoning,
and it's going to be in theaters in October, so
it's coming soon. Jeremy Strong plays Mark Zuckerberg, and people.
Speaker 3 (26:58):
Around here understand that when I saying no, that's the
end of the debate.
Speaker 1 (27:02):
I'm not two years out of a dorm room anymore.
Charlie und around.
Speaker 2 (27:06):
Actor Jeremy Strong said he took this so seriously that
when he took the role and said yes, I'll do it,
he emailed Zuckerberg. Now he didn't share like, what was
you know back and forth about that, but he approached
this so seriously that he stayed in character and he
watched like hours on in and hours of his congressional testimony.
(27:29):
He said he did that until his eyes were falling
out of.
Speaker 4 (27:31):
His head, so he got down his mannerisms, his voice
and all that.
Speaker 2 (27:34):
Created his first ever Facebook page just so he could
study Zuckerberg's post and learn everything about him. One of
his dear friends, Jeremy Strong's dear friends, is Bradley Cooper,
and they would hang out and go to lunch and
stuff during the filming of this and Bradley's like he
was Mark Zuckerberg. He would not get out of character.
So anyway, the Social Reckoning set to be in theater's
(27:56):
October ninth, And no, Bradley Cooper's not in the movie.
Speaker 3 (28:00):
He and Jeremy are just sort of like BFFs.
Speaker 5 (28:04):
Sam's got music music.
Speaker 4 (28:06):
We've got a big time Hollywood actor who says now
that he wants to be a singer and put out
an album. In fact, he's released a new song called
Your Dad. I'm gonna see If you know who this
guy is, my.
Speaker 3 (28:19):
Whole life change on the moment. Well, he has a
beautiful voice. Of course I don't know who it is,
but I'm dying to know that it would be Oh wait,
what is that Duanne the rock Johnson?
Speaker 2 (28:34):
Yes, I saw a headline recently that he but we've
heard him singing movies.
Speaker 3 (28:41):
He can sing.
Speaker 4 (28:42):
He's singing Molana, Can I say except You're welcome.
Speaker 2 (28:47):
Yeah, but that's more Broadway ish singing when telling a
story like go Back.
Speaker 3 (28:50):
I want to hear that beautiful.
Speaker 4 (28:52):
There was.
Speaker 3 (28:54):
My whole life change.
Speaker 1 (28:57):
Yes, I don't think it's any auto tune going on there.
Speaker 4 (28:59):
For the live action movie that was put out recently, Milana,
they did a compilation or companion album, not necessarily a soundtrack,
but it's called Malana Voices Across the Ocean and that
song is on there. By the way, the rock co
wrote that song too.
Speaker 1 (29:15):
Wow.
Speaker 4 (29:15):
Cool And here's what he says. I've been fortunate to
be part of some really cool projects, but music's always
been an anchor for me, he says. I like country music,
traditional country music, and we're exploring that now.
Speaker 3 (29:27):
I believe it.
Speaker 1 (29:28):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (29:28):
I would have never guessed that, by the way, without
kind of having seen that, you know, and it just clicked.
Speaker 4 (29:33):
So I just say, you know, did you hear about
Rod Stewart having to canceled the rest of his tour.
He's got some health issues on this current tour and
during his Vegas residency he had to cancel some shows.
A while back, for laryngitis. Well over the weekend he
had to cancel it, like last minute, cancel a show
in Cincinnati and rushed to the emergency room. They wound
(29:54):
up putting a heart stent in Oh really yeah bad.
But the doctors told him take four weeks off and
that's gonna like be the end of his tour. So
they just decided rest is the tour. Yeah, I forget it,
No more tour. Everything will be rescheduled. And this is
kind of cute. We have a new album called coming
out called Seth McFarlane sings the Muppets. You know who
Seth MacFarlane is. Yeah, family guy, and Tad's got a
(30:17):
great singing voice. So he's taken all these classic Muppet
songs and giving him the big band treatment.
Speaker 1 (30:23):
It's not okay, Well that's different.
Speaker 4 (30:35):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (30:39):
Here's three things to know today.
Speaker 2 (30:41):
Number One, whether it was your mom or a school
teacher who always told you to sit up straight, apparently
it was great advice those who sit up straight. This
is in a recent study of hundreds of people report
it's not just good for your back. They reported more
positive emotions and they made more effective choices, yeah, and
stronger feelings of pride sitting up straight. You know, if
you're gonna act it, maybe you're gonna feel it.
Speaker 4 (31:03):
Isn't that cool funny when you first said sit up straight,
I actually did sit up Yay.
Speaker 3 (31:07):
It works.
Speaker 2 (31:08):
So they say work on your desk height and your
screen placements that you can sit up straight and more
during the day for a more effective life. Number two
today is International Left Handed Person's Day Lefties. Did you
know it's only like twelve percent of the world's population
is actually left handed, and left handed people are more
usually they're more creative.
Speaker 4 (31:26):
Yeah, they all seem that way.
Speaker 3 (31:28):
Left Handed boxers win more fights, lefties typically perform better
in baseball, and left handed people apparently tend to have
more vivid dreams. So interesting.
Speaker 2 (31:39):
And number three told you about the field of Dreams
game tonight for baseball. But we also have preseason football
all over the place tonight.
Speaker 4 (31:47):
There the drought is over.
Speaker 3 (31:49):
There are six.
Speaker 2 (31:49):
Games tonight were like Lions and Bengals. We've got Titans
in the forty nine, Ers, Packers and the Steelers, Cardinals
and the Raiders, all at different times, of course, but
season football is here.
Speaker 5 (32:02):
You're in the note three. Thanks to know today
Welcome to the Murphy Salmon Jody Daily Show Podcast.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
What's the craziest place you've ever seen or found a snake?
Speaker 3 (00:09):
It happens you guys.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
I know you've seen social media blow up in the
summertime with people, you know, finding snakes in ice chests,
on boats and things like that. I mean, snakes get
into places and they sit.
Speaker 1 (00:22):
I've been surprised by them before. I don't know that
i've ever actually, you know, found them in your places.
The one that surprised me was when I was a
kid mowing the grass. It was my chore for the
summer one. It was a push mower and the grass
was very thick. And as I'm as I'm going through,
I'm in the mower, it just comes to a complete
halt ah man and I pull the mower back. Now
(00:42):
I got him. He was gone. He was not a
threat to me that he Yeah, but he was kind
of big.
Speaker 4 (00:52):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
I don't know, I don't remember what. I don't think
he was a poisonous snake big, but he was big.
Speaker 3 (00:57):
What about weird spots snake in the boot?
Speaker 4 (01:00):
Yeah. But one of Sammy and Will my oldest one
of their favorite stories is one time when the three
of us were walking along a ditch, you know.
Speaker 3 (01:07):
Just whatever, dad with his boys.
Speaker 4 (01:10):
Yeah, and I was leading the way and there was
a snake right in front of me, coiled up and
it's like walking along hey, and you see it? And
I jumped over it and went And So if you
ever asked him about the snake story, though, laugh about
the time I screamed like a girl and jumped over
a snake.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
Okay, scream like a what Anyway, I'll say this. You
heard about this. This is the story that happened this week.
Kids are getting back into school. A football player was
at practice a high school and he felt like there
was something wrong with his helmet, you know, something not
finning right too, And then he felt something moving around.
He had been practicing and he had had the helmet
(01:48):
on for about an hour.
Speaker 3 (01:50):
He takes it off.
Speaker 2 (01:51):
They inspected and they found a two foot long cotton
mouth hiding beneath the padding.
Speaker 1 (01:56):
That is a venomous snake.
Speaker 3 (01:58):
It's a venomous snake.
Speaker 2 (01:59):
So they actually the shelter, the local shelter was reminding
everybody pay attention to your outdoor gear, especially if you
get as you're getting back to school. All this stuff snakes.
Speaker 1 (02:11):
So the helmets were being stored outside.
Speaker 2 (02:14):
Don't know about don't know the answer to that question,
but or the snake got into wherever the helmets were freaky.
Speaker 1 (02:20):
I mean, he's lucky. I know, a venomous bike to
the head would have been really bad. You think, yeah,
I'm glad he's okay. That really, I'm gonna have chills
for the rest of the day.
Speaker 3 (02:31):
Carry let's get started. Coming up at six fifty three
Things to notice starts your day.
Speaker 1 (02:37):
And next, Sam's the food dude.
Speaker 4 (02:39):
Yeah, we got a new formula for goldfish crackers.
Speaker 5 (02:44):
Sam's always up on the new eats. He's the food dude.
Speaker 4 (02:47):
The folks said goldfish crackers, say they are finally giving
us the cracker that has been the most requested in
their history. What I didn't, Okay, a gluten free goldfish cracker.
Speaker 3 (02:59):
Oh that makes sense.
Speaker 4 (03:01):
Gluten free flour blend that they're using. They're using the
same cheese. They said, you're not. They can't tell. Really
worked hard on this to get it the same, so
you won't notice any difference. Still gonna be baked, not fried.
Speaker 1 (03:12):
I think that that's smart because you're talking about one
of the most loved snacks that there is and as
little kids, I mean that's an easy one. That and
cheerios you put them in.
Speaker 3 (03:20):
Yeah, you're the only kid who can't have them.
Speaker 4 (03:22):
Yeah, And for right now, this is coming out in
the fall, and for right now, it's just gonna be
the basic cheese cracker. It's not the flavor blasted or
the pizza or the Mickey Mouse shape. Okay, Oreo is
bringing back a couple of cookies is fall the uh well,
obviously the Halloween cookie where they turn the cream orange
cute has different like snakes and bats and stuff on
the cookie. But they're also bringing back the apple pie
(03:44):
a la mode.
Speaker 3 (03:45):
I never I don't think we had it.
Speaker 4 (03:48):
It sounds good, but it's actually available now at some stores.
It's hitting stores already. Two vanilla cookies and the filling
is a combination of apple pie and vanilla ice cream flavors.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
They still have not made an ore and all these
flavors to top the original Oreo.
Speaker 3 (04:05):
It's still the best cookie that's sold.
Speaker 4 (04:08):
Yeah, it is. It is.
Speaker 2 (04:10):
It's a class I mean they don't have to do
all this extra stuff. I'm sure it makes them millions
to do it. Because we all want to taste the
new flavors.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
Well, yeah, I mean it keeps the brand it's focused on.
Every time you can try a new version of an oreo.
You might just pick up a pack of originals too
while you're at it.
Speaker 4 (04:24):
Yeah, and just think about the one you would that
they're trying in the lab that we don't get the test.
I bet there's some really good one.
Speaker 3 (04:31):
Well leftovers, you know.
Speaker 4 (04:33):
Snoop Dogg has an ice cream brand called Doctor Bombay.
I've gotten the pints before and they're really good. Yeah,
they're actually pretty good. Of course he's branching out now
into popsickles all right, wait, which he's gonna call Snoop Sickles.
Speaker 3 (04:48):
Of course, I love that, of course, Snoop.
Speaker 4 (04:51):
The first one out is the one that looks just
like a bomb pop. It's a he said, it's razzed
out cherry and lime sherbet.
Speaker 3 (04:57):
And it's red, white and blue good stuff.
Speaker 4 (05:00):
And on the box it says pop it like it's hot.
Speaker 3 (05:04):
He can say that, I'm not.
Speaker 1 (05:07):
That's right.
Speaker 3 (05:07):
Excellent, Thank you, food dude.
Speaker 1 (05:09):
Jody has your Hollywood Outsider coming up next.
Speaker 5 (05:13):
Jody's Hollywood Outsider.
Speaker 3 (05:15):
We've been telling you about all the movies that are
premiering on the big screen between now and the end
of the year, and we'll keep reminding you because it's
really fun, Like La La Land this weekend in theaters.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
He me movies that are coming back.
Speaker 3 (05:28):
And you have back older movies. So the streaming services
come through.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
So right now on Netflix, there's a lot of feel
good movies that you can just you know, revisit one
from two thousand and four that everybody loves It always
feels good, thirteen going on thirty. I don't know what
Lucy said to you about me, but I want you
to know that, Oh, whoever.
Speaker 3 (05:47):
That was she was talking about, Jennifer Garner, wasn't me.
Speaker 4 (05:50):
That's a great movie.
Speaker 3 (05:51):
It is a great movie.
Speaker 2 (05:52):
And do you know that I only saw it one
time and it gave me those good feels. And I
think Rick Spreethel was a part of it. Was she
in love with Rick or something like that? Jesse's Girl
made up? Ruffalo, Yeah, one that Murphy loved and a
documentary you swear you wanted to watch again is in
their feel good section right now from twenty twenty four,
The Greatest Night in Pop one two.
Speaker 1 (06:14):
Yeah, the making of We Are the World So Great,
which is an incredible story. I don't even know that
you could pull that many artists together today to do
that the way they Lionel Ritchie and Quincy Jones did.
Speaker 3 (06:24):
So.
Speaker 2 (06:24):
A lot of good, feel good stuff to stream right now.
Coming up next, teachers, getting real about how you really
feel about open house Night. Teachers, why is open house
night or open house Day a bundle of nerves for you?
We have asked on our Instagram, Facebook, all the socials,
and you have responded.
Speaker 3 (06:44):
Marissa said, it's like a dog and pony show.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
As an elective teacher, it feels like we're on display
and we're being measured up. Who's the coolest, Whose class
is the funniest, who can dazzle everyone the best.
Speaker 3 (06:55):
It's just a lot of pressure, that's Marissa.
Speaker 4 (06:58):
Yeah, because you're parents, you.
Speaker 2 (07:00):
Know, it's the first time I ever realized that when
we were sitting in the little desks when our kids
were in like first grade, and we're at open house
and I was. I ended up talking to one of
the teachers the next day and she was like, so
glad that's over, and I was like, why I thought?
I said, I was it was awesome. She was like,
I'm so nervous. I never thought A lot of parents
don't realize it's difficult for you teachers.
Speaker 1 (07:21):
Well, it is a our skill set is working one
on one with kids. Not everybody is comfortable addressing a
crowd like that. I completely understand respect that.
Speaker 3 (07:30):
I never thought of it that way.
Speaker 4 (07:31):
Melody says, just that exact thing, because talking in front
of the kids is nothing talking to a group of adults.
And the emotion she has is.
Speaker 3 (07:39):
Like, ah, yeah, I hear you, I hear you.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
Carrie says, it's like opening night of a Broadway production.
You got to give your all to a new group
of students while doing a curtain call for those who
you've had before. I just want to say, hi, Yeah,
thirty years and I still get butterflies. But that's a
great way to describe it.
Speaker 3 (07:57):
It is the teachers are a good storytelling.
Speaker 1 (07:59):
Well, because you know, even though it's because again parents
naturally want to go I'm such a such kid up
right after and you especially when they're running it like
a school day where there's not enough room to have
a conversation, because that's really what you're one on one
should be for. But they still try to accommodate. They
know that, I mean, they know that even though parents
(08:19):
shouldn't do that, they're going to do that. So that's interesting, Carrie.
Speaker 2 (08:22):
Another thought that I wanted to just say every time,
every single time we ever went to open house, I
never felt like I was judging a teacher for the
way they were behaving or what they were saying.
Speaker 3 (08:33):
No, honestly, my head was is this where she sits?
Speaker 4 (08:38):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (08:38):
It was like I was in my child's body, thinking
this is what her day is.
Speaker 6 (08:43):
Like.
Speaker 4 (08:43):
I just liked seeing like, oh, look there's this pencil box.
Speaker 1 (08:47):
Yeah, I can tell you where my head was, especially
you know, elementary middle school, literally trying to get out
of the desk and walk. The desk would get up
with me.
Speaker 3 (08:57):
Teachers, keep it coming.
Speaker 2 (08:58):
We want to hear from you about open how eight
seven seven three one zero four MSJ coming up next.
Three things to Know Today.
Speaker 5 (09:08):
Three things to Know Today.
Speaker 2 (09:09):
Number one, A single winning ticket in last night's billion
dollar powerball drawing was sold in Quincy, Illinois, So the
massive jackpot has a cash value of more than four
hundred and fifty million dollars. Somebody's life has changed. I
don't even know if they know it yet. Right, Yeah,
it's the largest Powerball prize won so far, and it's
(09:31):
the eighth largest in the history of the game.
Speaker 4 (09:33):
Curious to see if it's a one person or a group.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
Correct Number two. I think you told us about this
recently a couple days ago. Even Foodude about seven up
changing in formula, the first time they've changed it in
more than fifteen years. So instead of it being a
lemon lime flavor, it's going to be more lime forward.
Speaker 3 (09:51):
And the new.
Speaker 2 (09:51):
Formula, of course, has been tested. They do testing with
groups and everybody says, look, it is brighter, it seems
a little more crisp. It's a chain, but it's subtle,
stronger lime aroma, which is a big part of taste.
So so far everybody's liking it. So once you see
the new packaging, it all rolls out nationwide this month.
Speaker 4 (10:10):
The new seven is going to come in regular and
cherry flavors.
Speaker 3 (10:13):
Nice and number three.
Speaker 2 (10:15):
The Field of Dreams game and Dyersville, Iowa, happening tonight
between the Philadelphia Phillies and the Minnesota Twins, and of
course they built a new eight thousand seat stadium.
Speaker 3 (10:28):
Tonight's game one from the movie really wasn't going to
cut it correct. If it's not rained out, it'll be
broadcast tonight. By the way, on Netflix, you're up to date.
Speaker 5 (10:37):
Three things to know today.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
There's a sort of surprise party being pulled off from
our family this week, and I think Murphy is a
little confused that it's the.
Speaker 1 (10:46):
Most confusing thing in the world. Jody, Actually, how can
it be sort of a surprise?
Speaker 2 (10:50):
So our oldest daughter, Taylor is having a birthday on Friday,
and her best friend in the world, Phoebe, our youngest daughter,
is throwing a party for her, a birthday part at
her apartment. And so the sort of secret is what
the party is, who's going to be there, what the
party is, Is there a theme?
Speaker 3 (11:09):
Like the party is a secret.
Speaker 2 (11:11):
Taylor was just told go away around four pm and
don't come back till seven, And so we know what
the theme is and what's being planned and all of that.
Speaker 3 (11:20):
You know, I even have a part to help in it.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
Yeah. But but Jody, when you told me about what
was going on, your thing is yeah, and I'm gonna
be a decoy. I'm like, okay, Well, if you're gonna
be a decoy, then obviously this is a surprise party.
Was anything that's going on, yeah.
Speaker 3 (11:34):
I must have. It's not a decoy. I'm the distraction.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
So for everything that was happening through this planning process,
I'm like, but you can't do that because that's gonna
Taylor's gonna find out what's going on. Aren't you the decoy?
Well yeah, and the decoy? Well, but she knows about
the party. I don't understand.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
I'm not a decoy. I'm just the distraction. So I'm
excited to get to spend time with her. Phoebe wants
Taylor gone from like four till seven till the party starts.
So I called Taylor and I'm like, hey, I want
to see you on your birthday anyway, you know, just
you and me. Let's go hang out and I want
to spend time with you and we can go have
coffee or whatnot. She was like great, she said, Actually,
I've really been wanting to get my nails done, so
(12:13):
I'm taking her on her birthday to get We're going
to do nails, get our nails done side by side.
Speaker 4 (12:17):
Is she the kind that would question you, like, hey,
so what do you know about this point?
Speaker 5 (12:21):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (12:21):
She won't. I don't think what do you think, Murphy.
Speaker 1 (12:23):
I think she's like me. I think she likes surprises.
She doesn't want to know. She's smart enough to figure
it out, but she doesn't want to know. I think
that this is I mean, now that I get it,
it's like, okay, kind of a brilliant thing, truly on
Phoebe's party. It makes it a lot easier to plan
a party that's not a surprise party. It's got the
surprise element to it. It's like, but you're not surprising
the whole thing, because those things always wind up leaking
(12:45):
at some point. I got really lucky on the Jody's
done a couple of surprise birthday parties for me and
it's never leaked. So I don't know how you've gotten
that lucky. But there's always somebody that slips and says
one thing like Okay, i'll see you next week.
Speaker 4 (12:58):
One of the sweet.
Speaker 2 (12:59):
Yeah yeah, One of the sweetest parts of this though,
has been watching Phoebe put so much effort in planning
into this. This is going to be fantastic for Taylor,
and it's like, it's like, you love her so much,
you're trying to give her this incredible day.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
That's not a surprise party, and you're not a decoy.
Speaker 3 (13:16):
No.
Speaker 1 (13:16):
Coming up at seven fifty, Jody has three things to
know today and next your morning picked me.
Speaker 3 (13:21):
Up, Morning, Picked me Up time.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
You know, there's a bee problem, a honeybee problem in
the world, and there's one woman who slowly but surely
is making it better.
Speaker 3 (13:31):
This is so cute. You know there's a B problem.
Speaker 1 (13:34):
Yeah, but the B problem is there are fewer Yeah.
Speaker 4 (13:37):
I learned about that in the B movie, that animated
movie with Jerry Gerry Seinfeld.
Speaker 3 (13:41):
Ye, there was a lot of education in that movie.
Speaker 4 (13:43):
Yeah, that's funny, but you learned that there was a
B problem.
Speaker 2 (13:46):
It was like a science class. Yeah, I know, really funny.
And they used George Michael's Freedom.
Speaker 3 (13:51):
In that movie. I remember that. Okay.
Speaker 2 (13:53):
So her name is Dorothy. Her husband was a bee keeper,
so she knew about it. He had a garden. She
noticed over time that their fewer bees were coming, and
that she noticed the sound was gone and she had
missed it. And one of the big problems here is
that they're looking for water these hot, hot summers, natural
water sources dry up, they stop looking to they stop
(14:18):
pollinating and they're just looking to survive and looking for
water and they can't find clean water sources, and then
sometimes they dehydrate, sometimes they die and then they of
course they never make it back to the hive. That's
one of the that's one of the big problems. It's
pesticides too, it's pesticides too, but lack of water sometimes.
So she said, okay, she does pottery, and she thought,
(14:41):
I'm going to make these little petals that can hold
fresh water, that look like flowers. Put them in the
garden and see if the bees come.
Speaker 3 (14:49):
And it worked.
Speaker 2 (14:51):
Now she had trial and error, like she made them
too deep one time, and the bees can't They would
drown in that like a bird could drink out of that.
But learned to make them more shallow, and she learned
to make them like sort of course, so the bees
wouldn't slide in a completely. Over the years, got it
right and you can buy them now. They're called like
(15:12):
bee blossoms, dots bees blossoms. They come in a box
of like four and they're colorful and beautiful. They come
with the steaks. You stick them in a garden and
it's like watch the bees come, listen and for the
bees to come.
Speaker 3 (15:26):
Isn't that cool?
Speaker 4 (15:27):
I'm gonna look this one up.
Speaker 1 (15:28):
But you have to put the water in it. Oh yeah,
you do.
Speaker 3 (15:30):
Fresh water every day.
Speaker 2 (15:31):
Put a little fresh water every morning, and you know,
slowly but surely. And she didn't even want she was
like doing it for her neighbors, doing it for herself.
And her daughter was like, Mom, We've got to get
this online. And she was like, okay, just do it
good for you can look it up. Yeah, dots bees
blossoms up.
Speaker 1 (15:47):
Next, Jody has another Hollywood Outsider.
Speaker 5 (15:52):
Trending now Jody's Hollywood Outsider.
Speaker 2 (15:54):
There's a new movie that's getting some pretty good reviews,
a fantasy about a suburban neighborhood that it's transported back
to the age of dinosaurs, starring Anne Hathaway and Ewan McGregor,
called The End of Oak Street.
Speaker 5 (16:09):
I think that our neighborhood, wait for it, our hopes.
Speaker 3 (16:15):
Our street move.
Speaker 5 (16:18):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (16:19):
Okay. So it's one of those movies that once you
see it, you can't unsee.
Speaker 4 (16:24):
It because the trailer it's like, what the.
Speaker 3 (16:26):
Dinosaurs look incredible.
Speaker 2 (16:28):
This is the new one of the big new movies
that's coming out that's landing.
Speaker 3 (16:32):
This week in the theater.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
But they do say, as good as it looks, it
still has to take on Spider Man.
Speaker 3 (16:38):
Oh yeah, Hi, my name is Peter Parker, and this
one is doing so well kid. Have you seen it yet?
Speaker 2 (16:47):
No?
Speaker 4 (16:47):
I am not.
Speaker 2 (16:47):
Okay, you gotta go. You have to see it in
the theater. I think it'll hang out hang on for
a little while. Yeah, because it's also getting some of
the best Marvel reviews.
Speaker 4 (16:55):
And by the way, the Oak Street Movie is not
the only dinosaur movie this weekend.
Speaker 3 (16:59):
Oh that's right right, Patrol Dyno too. This sweet Thank
you for that reminder.
Speaker 2 (17:05):
Also, moving over to streaming, Seinfeld is going to be
sticking around on Netflix for a while. They just signed
on for another five years. That's how much people like
to put that on and just laugh again. Its stream
The numbers are really good.
Speaker 4 (17:20):
By the way, it's seven fifty three things to know today.
Speaker 3 (17:25):
Back to school time.
Speaker 2 (17:26):
And we have asked teachers, but not just teachers, I
mean anybody in a school administration. If open house is
crazy for you, if it makes if it brings on
anxiety and nerves, we want to hear about it, you know,
wanted you teachers to kind of explain it to any
parents listening. Why open house can be you know, difficult
for you. That's school nurses, that's everybody. Alicia said this,
(17:48):
it depends on the grade level. For elementary school, kids
want to see their teachers and the families want to
get familiar with the classroom, but those teachers are usually
only meeting between twenty five to seventy sets of parents.
Max can pair that to middle school meeting one hundred
and high school teachers meeting one hundred and twenty plus.
Speaker 1 (18:06):
Yep, where classes change and you're saying the same thing
multiple times.
Speaker 2 (18:09):
Personally, Having taught only high school, I feel like open
house is much more beneficial a few weeks in or
a month into school. As a teacher, it's more beneficial
to know who the students are. When meeting parents, I
feel like I have the same three minute conversation one
hundred times in two hours, and it feels impersonal.
Speaker 3 (18:28):
Just my thoughts, that's Alicia.
Speaker 1 (18:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (18:31):
Yeah, it's like the earlier that the school schedules it,
the harder it is for you to really feel like
you're representing.
Speaker 1 (18:37):
That makes perfect sense to me.
Speaker 2 (18:39):
Yeah, when we went to Taylor and Phoebe's open House
Murphy when they were in high school. I remember one
of the teachers saying thank you for being here because
there are fewer parents who show up.
Speaker 1 (18:51):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (18:51):
At that age, you're like, oh, they got it. It's
high school.
Speaker 1 (18:54):
We even did junior and senior years just because and
that's where it really does start to roll off.
Speaker 3 (18:59):
Really the only ones here.
Speaker 1 (19:02):
Caitlin says in this I don't think is necessarily just
open house related, but she says this is her first
full year teaching special education and she has She says,
I have such high expectations of myself and I want
to make an impact with these kids.
Speaker 2 (19:15):
Yeah, and so open house is also you're feeling the
pressure on that night.
Speaker 4 (19:20):
Yeah, got one from Sarah here. She says, it's kind
of like opening night for a nine month production. You're
expected to look nice, have the coolest goodies, smile your
face off, know all your lines, and maintain this for hours.
Speaker 3 (19:33):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (19:33):
It's exhausting. It's fun and exciting, but exhausting.
Speaker 3 (19:37):
Yeah, just something to remember.
Speaker 2 (19:39):
At open house, the teachers are feeling one hundred million
pieces of anxiety and they feel responsible, Well, I'm going
to give you a good experience.
Speaker 1 (19:45):
And they've generally put a lot of prep into it.
Speaker 2 (19:47):
Yes, all right, thank you, keep it coming. Reach out
to us on Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, all the places coming up.
Speaker 1 (19:53):
In seven fifty, Jody has three things to note today.
Speaker 2 (19:58):
Three things to know Todaynumber one, this term new school year.
Knew you actually does apply to teenagers apparently, so pay
attention moms and dads this time of the year. This
is when teenagers basically have that chance to rebrand themselves
and often do with their clothing.
Speaker 4 (20:14):
Yeah, the coming of the summary.
Speaker 3 (20:15):
That's right. Looking for a specific vibe, whether it's athletic
or basic or preppy, or even alt or whimsical. This
is what happens for teenagers, and it's a.
Speaker 2 (20:24):
Good fresh start when you walk through those doors at
day one or those first few weeks at least. Number two,
what if it was doctor's orders for you to watch
more sports?
Speaker 3 (20:33):
Huh Yeah, apparently it is good for your mental health.
Speaker 2 (20:36):
Following sports can boost your happiness, reduce feelings of loneliness,
creates a sense of connection and community, even if it's
with complete strangers. Looking forward to a game or a
match can activate your brain's reward system, take you away
from everyday stresses, and you know screens.
Speaker 4 (20:54):
Well, is this as good as long as your team's winning?
Speaker 3 (20:56):
Well, yeah, they do say obviously in the mental health world,
if it can controls your mood. If your team is
losing and it's affecting your sleep or relationships, you need
to step back.
Speaker 2 (21:06):
And number three Today is National Prosecco Day. I love prosecco.
Do you know what it is. It's a light, sparkling
Italian wine with fruity notes, fresh bubbles, and a lower
price than champagne. Sometimes when you're having a mimosa, you
might be having prosecco instead of champagne and you didn't
even know it.
Speaker 5 (21:25):
You're in the note three.
Speaker 3 (21:27):
Thanks to know Today, join the conversation.
Speaker 2 (21:32):
We want to hear from you, and when we're not here,
you can leave us voice memos and messages eight seven
seven three one zero four MSJ.
Speaker 5 (21:40):
Never miss a call Murphy, Sam and Jody twenty four
hour voicemail.
Speaker 7 (21:46):
Hey guys, it's Valerie.
Speaker 6 (21:47):
I love hearing your conversation about the school nurse. Such
a near and dear person to me in our school system.
My son has a lot of medical challenges, has a
heavy medical history fourteen surgeries in the first seven years
of his life and his school nurse. All the school
(22:08):
nurses he's ever had, regardless of elementary school or middle
school now, have just been incredible. They know our history,
they know his allergies. He's a peanut kid too. We
have to watch food allergies every day. We have to
watch for surgical repercussions. All those things are just so important.
And I love the shout out the nurses best of
(22:29):
luck to everybody as they started a new school year.
Love the show, Love listening to you guys every day,
have a great one to take care of.
Speaker 3 (22:36):
Thank you, Valerie.
Speaker 1 (22:37):
Thank you.
Speaker 3 (22:38):
That is a whole different level. When your kid has
all of that, you make it your mission to know
that nurse you do well.
Speaker 1 (22:45):
And that nurse is really kind of on your team
at that point because you're trying to do your work
day and I think you've got another set of eyes
to help you out.
Speaker 2 (22:52):
One of my best friends is a school nurse and
anytime I talked to her in the school year, so
start telling me about her kids, and she means different
kids in her school that she sees a lot, you know,
like the ones with diabetes and the ones with a
pomp and stuff like that Murphy.
Speaker 3 (23:05):
Yeah, she calls them her kids.
Speaker 1 (23:06):
Let's check another.
Speaker 7 (23:09):
Hey, you guys have a great platform for public service announcement,
So would you just remind people that when they see
a school bus stopped, they need to stop, even if
they're in the opposite plane going the opposite direction. I've
seen this so many times recently, and it's six fifteen
(23:30):
in the morning and it's dark and you will not
see a child. So please remind people to stop. Thanks, y'all,
have a great day.
Speaker 3 (23:38):
I don't think we need to remind them. I think
you just did a great job.
Speaker 2 (23:43):
And you know, when that happens, it's just somebody who's
in their own head not paying attention. I saw a
school bus the other day with the you know, the
little stop signs open, and so I stopped. But because
it's like, oh, back to school time, I'm on a
high alert for it, I stopped way too far back.
I just went ahead, stopped way far back, and people
around me were like, what do you yes see the arms?
Speaker 3 (24:04):
What are you doing? Back to school time coming up?
Speaker 1 (24:08):
Jody has another Hollywood outsider.
Speaker 2 (24:11):
Earlier, when we were talking about that football player who
high school football player who found a venomous snake hiding
behind the padding of his helmet after he had worn
it for an hour. That's insane talking about all the
places that you know snakes hide and where you everybody
has a snake encounter.
Speaker 1 (24:29):
I don't know if you've ever had a snake hiding incident.
Have you ever had one? Surprise you?
Speaker 2 (24:34):
Yes, but it wasn't that. It's not the outdoor. Oh
my gosh, there's a snake in my boot situation, toilet, No, no, no, no,
you know this story unless you.
Speaker 3 (24:43):
Just forgot it. My ex the.
Speaker 2 (24:45):
Person I was with exactly, was biological sciences major in
college and he was getting his PhD. And it was
all he had snakes, but not all over the place,
like mostly there weren't.
Speaker 4 (24:58):
Live snakes though, were they?
Speaker 7 (24:59):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (24:59):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (25:01):
So one afternoon I was at his apartment and he
was not there yet, and I was looking for some
iced tea in the fridge and I moved some stuff
out of the way.
Speaker 3 (25:10):
The tea was in the back.
Speaker 2 (25:11):
I moved some stuff onto the counter to get to
the tea, and by the time I turned around to
pour my tea, what I had moved it was a bag.
I didn't know what was in it and it started moving.
He had kept us. He had put a snake in
a bag, a snake bag in the refrigerator.
Speaker 1 (25:25):
Which keeps them from moving because they go dormant because
they're and.
Speaker 3 (25:29):
He explained the same thing to me.
Speaker 2 (25:30):
It's like Jody, of course he's going to start moving
because it was hot out in the kitchen.
Speaker 4 (25:35):
First in the fridge, I just wanted iced tea.
Speaker 2 (25:38):
I put that snake back in that refrigerator so fast
because it was big and scary, and I thought it
was going to get away from me. No, anyway, commonplaces
that snakes hide wood and debris piles, that's a big place.
They're just looking for protection from heat from predators. They're
just trying to chill, lax and feel safe they can
(26:00):
sleep or whatever. Tall grass, of course, dense bushes, which
is what's happened to me. And when they do that,
that's that's what they're doing. They're trying to protect themselves.
They're not trying to sneak up on you and hide.
Speaker 1 (26:11):
You know, they actually don't want to be near you.
Speaker 2 (26:14):
Technically, no water features like ponds and landscape features. If
you have like a deck or whatever, that's a perfect
little place for them to sliver in.
Speaker 4 (26:23):
We have you know, the pond in the back of
my house. Yes, people put canoes on the or little
pedal boats. Oh. You lift it up and there's there's
always a snake under it.
Speaker 3 (26:32):
Right, It's a perfect hiding place, so beware.
Speaker 1 (26:35):
Up next another Hollywood Outsider.
Speaker 5 (26:38):
Jody's Hollywood Outsider.
Speaker 2 (26:40):
This highly anticipated sequel film years later from the social
network about the beginnings of Facebook, is called The Social Reckoning,
and it's going to be in theaters in October, so
it's coming soon. Jeremy Strong plays Mark Zuckerberg, and people.
Speaker 3 (26:58):
Around here understand that when I saying no, that's the
end of the debate.
Speaker 1 (27:02):
I'm not two years out of a dorm room anymore.
Charlie und around.
Speaker 2 (27:06):
Actor Jeremy Strong said he took this so seriously that
when he took the role and said yes, I'll do it,
he emailed Zuckerberg. Now he didn't share like, what was
you know back and forth about that, but he approached
this so seriously that he stayed in character and he
watched like hours on in and hours of his congressional testimony.
(27:29):
He said he did that until his eyes were falling
out of.
Speaker 4 (27:31):
His head, so he got down his mannerisms, his voice
and all that.
Speaker 2 (27:34):
Created his first ever Facebook page just so he could
study Zuckerberg's post and learn everything about him. One of
his dear friends, Jeremy Strong's dear friends, is Bradley Cooper,
and they would hang out and go to lunch and
stuff during the filming of this and Bradley's like he
was Mark Zuckerberg. He would not get out of character.
So anyway, the Social Reckoning set to be in theater's
(27:56):
October ninth, And no, Bradley Cooper's not in the movie.
Speaker 3 (28:00):
He and Jeremy are just sort of like BFFs.
Speaker 5 (28:04):
Sam's got music music.
Speaker 4 (28:06):
We've got a big time Hollywood actor who says now
that he wants to be a singer and put out
an album. In fact, he's released a new song called
Your Dad. I'm gonna see If you know who this
guy is, my.
Speaker 3 (28:19):
Whole life change on the moment. Well, he has a
beautiful voice. Of course I don't know who it is,
but I'm dying to know that it would be Oh wait,
what is that Duanne the rock Johnson?
Speaker 2 (28:34):
Yes, I saw a headline recently that he but we've
heard him singing movies.
Speaker 3 (28:41):
He can sing.
Speaker 4 (28:42):
He's singing Molana, Can I say except You're welcome.
Speaker 2 (28:47):
Yeah, but that's more Broadway ish singing when telling a
story like go Back.
Speaker 3 (28:50):
I want to hear that beautiful.
Speaker 4 (28:52):
There was.
Speaker 3 (28:54):
My whole life change.
Speaker 1 (28:57):
Yes, I don't think it's any auto tune going on there.
Speaker 4 (28:59):
For the live action movie that was put out recently, Milana,
they did a compilation or companion album, not necessarily a soundtrack,
but it's called Malana Voices Across the Ocean and that
song is on there. By the way, the rock co
wrote that song too.
Speaker 1 (29:15):
Wow.
Speaker 4 (29:15):
Cool And here's what he says. I've been fortunate to
be part of some really cool projects, but music's always
been an anchor for me, he says. I like country music,
traditional country music, and we're exploring that now.
Speaker 3 (29:27):
I believe it.
Speaker 1 (29:28):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (29:28):
I would have never guessed that, by the way, without
kind of having seen that, you know, and it just clicked.
Speaker 4 (29:33):
So I just say, you know, did you hear about
Rod Stewart having to canceled the rest of his tour.
He's got some health issues on this current tour and
during his Vegas residency he had to cancel some shows.
A while back, for laryngitis. Well over the weekend he
had to cancel it, like last minute, cancel a show
in Cincinnati and rushed to the emergency room. They wound
(29:54):
up putting a heart stent in Oh really yeah bad.
But the doctors told him take four weeks off and
that's gonna like be the end of his tour. So
they just decided rest is the tour. Yeah, I forget it,
No more tour. Everything will be rescheduled. And this is
kind of cute. We have a new album called coming
out called Seth McFarlane sings the Muppets. You know who
Seth MacFarlane is. Yeah, family guy, and Tad's got a
(30:17):
great singing voice. So he's taken all these classic Muppet
songs and giving him the big band treatment.
Speaker 1 (30:23):
It's not okay, Well that's different.
Speaker 4 (30:35):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (30:39):
Here's three things to know today.
Speaker 2 (30:41):
Number One, whether it was your mom or a school
teacher who always told you to sit up straight, apparently
it was great advice those who sit up straight. This
is in a recent study of hundreds of people report
it's not just good for your back. They reported more
positive emotions and they made more effective choices, yeah, and
stronger feelings of pride sitting up straight. You know, if
you're gonna act it, maybe you're gonna feel it.
Speaker 4 (31:03):
Isn't that cool funny when you first said sit up straight,
I actually did sit up Yay.
Speaker 3 (31:07):
It works.
Speaker 2 (31:08):
So they say work on your desk height and your
screen placements that you can sit up straight and more
during the day for a more effective life. Number two
today is International Left Handed Person's Day Lefties. Did you
know it's only like twelve percent of the world's population
is actually left handed, and left handed people are more
usually they're more creative.
Speaker 4 (31:26):
Yeah, they all seem that way.
Speaker 3 (31:28):
Left Handed boxers win more fights, lefties typically perform better
in baseball, and left handed people apparently tend to have
more vivid dreams. So interesting.
Speaker 2 (31:39):
And number three told you about the field of Dreams
game tonight for baseball. But we also have preseason football
all over the place tonight.
Speaker 4 (31:47):
There the drought is over.
Speaker 3 (31:49):
There are six.
Speaker 2 (31:49):
Games tonight were like Lions and Bengals. We've got Titans
in the forty nine, Ers, Packers and the Steelers, Cardinals
and the Raiders, all at different times, of course, but
season football is here.
