Toby and Chili Mornings on Demand on ninety seven point one.
Why shut out?
Speaker 2 (00:05):
Why are you feeling good before five o'clock this morning?
Call us now at eight sixty six nine two seven
forty three sixty one. It's Friday, Toby and chilly in
the morning, so chilly. Why are you feeling good today
before five?
Speaker 3 (00:16):
Well, we're about to embark on another family vacation.
Speaker 2 (00:20):
Very fortunate.
Speaker 3 (00:20):
We're going to be going to the Outer Banks morning.
Speaker 2 (00:23):
So, oh, you're leaving tomorrow morning. I thought for some
reason you were leaving today.
Speaker 3 (00:26):
Well, I'm doing something today that's related to tomorrow morning. Mabbe.
Speaker 2 (00:32):
Yeah, laundry. That's typically what it is for me whenever
I have to embark on a weekend get away or
kind of a.
Speaker 3 (00:39):
Thing time out. You were not doing laundry literally twelve
hours before you have to go on a trip. Right,
that's so close to call?
Speaker 2 (00:47):
No, it's not.
Speaker 3 (00:48):
Well, maybe if you're just packing for one, it's different.
Speaker 2 (00:51):
It is a lot different when you pack one, Okay,
it really is. Or when you have a kid who
can pack themselves, he's not so much of a kid anymore, right.
Speaker 3 (00:58):
Right, Well, you know what maybe one I do recall
those days of being single, and I still never cut
it that close. But I see how it is possible
if you're just packing for yourself.
Speaker 2 (01:07):
Yeah, like if I'm if it's just me and I
know I'm one bag in it, so to speak, carry
on bag, I'll just check it, just to check it,
even though I don't need to, why because I really
don't feel like getting the laundry that I just did out.
Speaker 3 (01:18):
You know, although my husband and I were just talking
about this yesterday. I know I want you to share
why you're feeling good, But we don't have to take
as much stuff now that he's ten years old, you know.
In the past, Yeah, it's like so many pack and
plays and this, like there were built whole hear pieces
and strollers at least were past that.
Speaker 4 (01:33):
SI.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
No, I remember when my daughter was your son's age.
You still have to look in on what they pack,
even though they're starting to want to pack themselves and
take their own stuff. And she's got this whole problem
called I take too many bags itis, But she comes
by it honestly because I used to be the same way.
But I used to date somebody who traveled with an
entire roller bag of hair care products and makeup. Yeah,
(01:56):
it was too much. I'm feeling good this one, and
it's real quick.
Speaker 3 (01:59):
Man.
Speaker 2 (02:00):
Kyla has a friend spending the night tonight, and I'm
really kind of happy about it. As much as it
might mean I need to stay in my room more
or whatever I tap out early, I'm happy that she's happy,
you know what I mean. There's nothing better as a parent,
at least to me, and I don't want to get
too parenty, but seeing your kid happy, you know, and
(02:22):
spending time with friends and not being afraid to bring
them over makes me less ashamed of the mess that
is the house at times. But then she cleans, so
I've got to say this. I did not mind at
all getting up last night and having to move my
car so her friend could park, even though it interrupted
my evening routine. You know, because you have a happy kid,
you have a happy life, much like having a happy wife,
(02:43):
although I've never had one of those, which tobe and
chilly in the morning. It is Friday in the Nation's capital.
Coming up next.
Speaker 3 (02:49):
Do you suffer from August blues? Apparently it's a thing.
Speaker 2 (02:52):
Yep, it is, and we'll talk about it coming up.
The August blues being that it is the second day
of August. I almost said first, but it's the beginning of
August seven point one watch FM where Toby and Chilly
in the morning. Apparently it's a thing. What are the
cold hard facts?
Speaker 3 (03:04):
Well, because it's signaling the end of summer, it's also okay,
so vacation time potentially over and maybe you didn't get
a chance to go on vacation. The whole being overwhelmed,
back to school, back, all the back to reality scrambling
and scheduling. Some people this time of year it's really tough.
Speaker 2 (03:20):
I mean, I can imagine it being a very expensive
time of year. I know it is for me, and
that's why I get the blues because I'm like, great,
I gotta buy back to school stuff, but great, I've
got to get her things for the dorm.
Speaker 3 (03:31):
You also have to drive your daughter back or get
your daughter back to college. So it's sad to see
her go potentially, I'm guessing it is.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
But I also think too that she and I both
are used to to breaks, you know what I mean,
Like going back to school is a bit of a
break from me and vice versa.
Speaker 3 (03:46):
That's awesome, but uh yeah.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
You know. And yeah, I mean I'm not looking forward
to that, but you know, it is what it is.
I'll get through it. I mean, it's not like I
haven't done it before. What about you, I mean, yeah,
your son's still in school, public school, doing his thing.
Things are about to get real expensive for you.
Speaker 3 (04:03):
It's not even about that. I always would get the
August blues because I do love summer and I love
being outside and doing all the pool things and whatever.
But this year, because of all the heat that we had,
the oppressive heat, I didn't get to do as much
as I wanted. So yeah, I'm okay with it being over.
Like I'm kind of sad, but we didn't get a
(04:24):
milder summer. But yeah, let's get a little cooler in
the fall.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
I mean, it could be worse. There are places in
this country where the kids are already going back to
school or they have done so, so it's you know,
it could be worse. At least you have the rest
of August ahead of you. Yeah, God willing, You'll make
the most of it. Got the August blues? Do you?

us all off. That's the news. We're toby and chilly
in the morning. It's ninety seven point one wash FM
just a few minutes say, speaking of the heat, you
ever beat the heat by jumping into the pool. Yes,
that's right. Well, what we're gonna tell you might change
the way you think about that pool water and why
you might want to consider wearing goggles, among other things.
(10:18):
Some research out this morning says that water maybe no bueno.
Stay there and we'll tell you why. Coming up. Okay,
you get into the pool, then you get out and
your eyes are all red. You think it's from the chlorine,
but it's not. Ninety seven point one wash FM Toby
and Chilly in the morning. They did research and they
took a look at the water in the pools. And
(10:39):
while chlorine is a part of the equation, a small
part of the equation, a bigger problem when it comes
to pull water and Chile. I want to get your
take on this. And by the way, you're listening to
us too, so you know the number eight sixty six
ninet two seven forty three sixty one. Bigger problem is
that people go and do their business and that pool
water right numberrow Ullo in the Moroe does.
Speaker 3 (10:59):
And people are not pooping in the water, but.
Speaker 2 (11:04):
We used to when I grew up, they used to
close that pool for like forty five minutes to like
do its thing and shock it because you would think
that the chlorine would be an antibiotic of some sorts.
Speaker 3 (11:16):
At point, you're saying that the eyes are red because
of pea and pooping, dirt.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
And sweat and then a little bit of chlorine. And
that's like, I'm like, no bueno. I'm wearing goggles from
now on. Yeah, I mean, because I don't have time
for anything that's going to cause me that river sinitis.
Speaker 3 (11:34):
I'm shocked that you even open your eyes in the water.
You open your eyes underwater.
Speaker 2 (11:38):
Sometimes it happens.
Speaker 3 (11:39):
I can't see. I wouldn't be able to do that,
So okay, yeah, I won't change anything in our world
because I always assume I'm swimming in other people's stuff.
Like I know it's gross, but whatever. And by the way,
I've taught my son not to put that water in
his mouth, and swimming is just a cool off. I mean,
how much is your head.
Speaker 2 (12:00):
Of course, you have like an open wound somewhere, you
scratched yourself somewhere, and then that junk water, that river
sin water can get into your system. Then you end
up looking like that one Olympic athlete the other day.
After that triathlon, all like losing your lunch because you're sick.
Speaker 3 (12:16):
So you're not going in the pool anymore.
Speaker 2 (12:17):
Now, well, I'm not saying I'm not going to the pool,
but I'm saying I'm changing the way I think about
these goggles. And if I have an open woond, I
want to stay away from them because I don't need
no infections. But I used to me that I would
think that maybe ocean water was a little bit dirtier.
But no, not anymore.
Speaker 3 (12:32):
No, Actually ocean water or saltwater is really good for
a lot of things.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (12:37):
I mean I my son's doctor who whenever he breaks
out in any kind of pool rash or whatever, and
they're like, well, the ocean's fine. The pool you never
know what those chemera.

Chillian them wanting spam folders. It's an automatic algorithm, just
takes things and puts it in. You know, spam folder.
Ton't ask you if it's okay. If it does, it
just does. And the reason we're bringing this up is
because a.
Speaker 3 (20:29):
Woman in Michigan saw a suspicious email in her spam
folder but then realized it was two hundred and seven
thousand dollars lottery price. It was she forgot or she'd
been earning second chance drawing entries by playing certain online
lottery games. Can you imagine missing out on that much money?
(20:49):
Because well, how often are you checking your spam fold.
Speaker 2 (20:52):
Did she miss out completely or did she get the
chance to go run down there and say.
Speaker 3 (20:56):
Oh, wait a minute, No, she she did get a
chance to get it.
Speaker 2 (21:00):
Well, hallelujah. But it's a good problem to have. It
just stinks that you didn't know because it was in
your spam folder. And I guarantee you if I knew
I was waiting on something two hundred and something thousand dollars,
the last thing I would do is let they get
anywhere near a spam book.
Speaker 3 (21:16):
He didn't know she was waiting on it. It was
one of these like automatic playthings that she was I guess,
you know, collecting over time, and she didn't. Thank God,
she didn't lose out on it. That's better than finding
money in your pocket. The worst thing that goes. It's
annoying and troublesome. But sometimes I've had heated conversations with
insurance related things. Oh, they insist they sent me, and
(21:40):
I'm like, I don't have it in my inbox, and
it ends up because it was in my spam and
it was important for putting in for payment or something
like that. So now I always have to check the spam.
What about you?
Speaker 2 (21:50):
Yeah, First things first, I'm going to just put it
out there in full disclosure that I am not the
best with things like gift cards. I have a stack
of them, physical them. So I was part of a
clinical trial that paid me with gift cards for each
of my visits and different things and they were at
different levels. And about halfway through the trial, I think
something changed with an email address, like it was, you know,
(22:14):
like gift card at gift card dot com to begin with,
and it became gift card new at gift Cards.
Speaker 3 (22:20):
So it didn't look familiar.
Speaker 2 (22:21):
Yep, So my Gmail sticks it in a spam folder.
I had no idea they were in the spam folder,
and I'm like, wait a second, well, geez, activate all
of these and let's go spend the weekend someplace. N Hello, Hello,
you guys have any rooms this week? If I found
all these gift cards sitting in my spam folder, well crazy.

hundred thousand dollars of lottery winnings in her spam fold.

would mysteriously get sick and I'd be at the bank
after I stopped by the lottery commission to catch my
two hundred thousand dollars? Are you kidding me? Jason? Thank
you for being here this morning in Germantown. What's your
take on this?
Speaker 4 (26:16):
I worked from home and it's a huge contract that
came in because it wound up in my spam. It
took a lot of conversations and convincing the client to understand,
but we were able to save the deal.
Speaker 1 (26:26):
It could have been a real disaster though.
Speaker 3 (26:28):
Is this sort of the modern day the dog ate
my homework?

a few days of worrying, I decided to check my
spam filter in there it was.
Speaker 3 (26:59):
I was so release, but also a bit.
Speaker 4 (27:01):
Frustrated that it had been marked as spams.
Speaker 1 (27:03):
Thankfully I was able to contact.
Speaker 4 (27:05):
The company and explain the situation and they rescheduled the
interview for me.
Speaker 2 (27:08):
You got lucky, ma'am.
Speaker 3 (27:11):

Speaker 1 (27:18):
What more, Toby and Jilly head over to WASHFM dot
com or the iHeartRadio app
Toby and Chili Mornings on Demand on ninety seven point one.

Call us now at eight sixty six nine two seven
forty three sixty one. It's Friday, Toby and chilly in
the morning, so chilly. Why are you feeling good today
before five?
Speaker 3 (00:16):
Well, we're about to embark on another family vacation.
Speaker 2 (00:20):
Very fortunate.
Speaker 3 (00:20):
We're going to be going to the Outer Banks morning.
Speaker 2 (00:23):
So, oh, you're leaving tomorrow morning. I thought for some
reason you were leaving today.
Speaker 3 (00:26):
Well, I'm doing something today that's related to tomorrow morning. Mabbe.
Speaker 2 (00:32):
Yeah, laundry. That's typically what it is for me whenever
I have to embark on a weekend get away or
kind of a.
Speaker 3 (00:39):
Thing time out. You were not doing laundry literally twelve
hours before you have to go on a trip. Right,
that's so close to call?
Speaker 2 (00:47):
No, it's not.
Speaker 3 (00:48):
Well, maybe if you're just packing for one, it's different.
Speaker 2 (00:51):
It is a lot different when you pack one, Okay,
it really is. Or when you have a kid who
can pack themselves, he's not so much of a kid anymore, right.
Speaker 3 (00:58):
Right, Well, you know what maybe one I do recall
those days of being single, and I still never cut
it that close. But I see how it is possible
if you're just packing for yourself.
Speaker 2 (01:07):
Yeah, like if I'm if it's just me and I
know I'm one bag in it, so to speak, carry
on bag, I'll just check it, just to check it,
even though I don't need to, why because I really
don't feel like getting the laundry that I just did out.
Speaker 3 (01:18):
You know, although my husband and I were just talking
about this yesterday. I know I want you to share
why you're feeling good, But we don't have to take
as much stuff now that he's ten years old, you know.
In the past, Yeah, it's like so many pack and
plays and this, like there were built whole hear pieces
and strollers at least were past that.
Speaker 4 (01:33):
SI.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
No, I remember when my daughter was your son's age.
You still have to look in on what they pack,
even though they're starting to want to pack themselves and
take their own stuff. And she's got this whole problem
called I take too many bags itis, But she comes
by it honestly because I used to be the same way.
But I used to date somebody who traveled with an
entire roller bag of hair care products and makeup. Yeah,
(01:56):
it was too much. I'm feeling good this one, and
it's real quick.
Speaker 3 (01:59):
Man.
Speaker 2 (02:00):
Kyla has a friend spending the night tonight, and I'm
really kind of happy about it. As much as it
might mean I need to stay in my room more
or whatever I tap out early, I'm happy that she's happy,
you know what I mean. There's nothing better as a parent,
at least to me, and I don't want to get
too parenty, but seeing your kid happy, you know, and
(02:22):
spending time with friends and not being afraid to bring
them over makes me less ashamed of the mess that
is the house at times. But then she cleans, so
I've got to say this. I did not mind at
all getting up last night and having to move my
car so her friend could park, even though it interrupted
my evening routine. You know, because you have a happy kid,
you have a happy life, much like having a happy wife,
(02:43):
although I've never had one of those, which tobe and
chilly in the morning. It is Friday in the Nation's capital.
Coming up next.
Speaker 3 (02:49):
Do you suffer from August blues? Apparently it's a thing.
Speaker 2 (02:52):
Yep, it is, and we'll talk about it coming up.
The August blues being that it is the second day
of August. I almost said first, but it's the beginning of
August seven point one watch FM where Toby and Chilly
in the morning. Apparently it's a thing. What are the
cold hard facts?
Speaker 3 (03:04):
Well, because it's signaling the end of summer, it's also okay,
so vacation time potentially over and maybe you didn't get
a chance to go on vacation. The whole being overwhelmed,
back to school, back, all the back to reality scrambling
and scheduling. Some people this time of year it's really tough.
Speaker 2 (03:20):
I mean, I can imagine it being a very expensive
time of year. I know it is for me, and
that's why I get the blues because I'm like, great,
I gotta buy back to school stuff, but great, I've
got to get her things for the dorm.
Speaker 3 (03:31):
You also have to drive your daughter back or get
your daughter back to college. So it's sad to see
her go potentially, I'm guessing it is.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
But I also think too that she and I both
are used to to breaks, you know what I mean,
Like going back to school is a bit of a
break from me and vice versa.
Speaker 3 (03:46):
That's awesome, but uh yeah.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
You know. And yeah, I mean I'm not looking forward
to that, but you know, it is what it is.
I'll get through it. I mean, it's not like I
haven't done it before. What about you, I mean, yeah,
your son's still in school, public school, doing his thing.
Things are about to get real expensive for you.
Speaker 3 (04:03):
It's not even about that. I always would get the
August blues because I do love summer and I love
being outside and doing all the pool things and whatever.
But this year, because of all the heat that we had,
the oppressive heat, I didn't get to do as much
as I wanted. So yeah, I'm okay with it being over.
Like I'm kind of sad, but we didn't get a
(04:24):
milder summer. But yeah, let's get a little cooler in
the fall.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
I mean, it could be worse. There are places in
this country where the kids are already going back to
school or they have done so, so it's you know,
it could be worse. At least you have the rest
of August ahead of you. Yeah, God willing, You'll make
the most of it. Got the August blues? Do you?

know yourself? Have you discovered yourself? Because until you do,

know themselves. Keep that in mind and work on discovering
yourself today and this weekend, so that we can get

in the morning. It's ninety seven point one wash FM
just a few minutes say, speaking of the heat, you
ever beat the heat by jumping into the pool. Yes,
that's right. Well, what we're gonna tell you might change
the way you think about that pool water and why
you might want to consider wearing goggles, among other things.
(10:18):
Some research out this morning says that water maybe no bueno.
Stay there and we'll tell you why. Coming up. Okay,
you get into the pool, then you get out and
your eyes are all red. You think it's from the chlorine,
but it's not. Ninety seven point one wash FM Toby
and Chilly in the morning. They did research and they
took a look at the water in the pools. And
(10:39):
while chlorine is a part of the equation, a small
part of the equation, a bigger problem when it comes
to pull water and Chile. I want to get your
take on this. And by the way, you're listening to
us too, so you know the number eight sixty six
ninet two seven forty three sixty one. Bigger problem is
that people go and do their business and that pool
water right numberrow Ullo in the Moroe does.
Speaker 3 (10:59):
And people are not pooping in the water, but.
Speaker 2 (11:04):
We used to when I grew up, they used to
close that pool for like forty five minutes to like
do its thing and shock it because you would think
that the chlorine would be an antibiotic of some sorts.
Speaker 3 (11:16):
At point, you're saying that the eyes are red because
of pea and pooping, dirt.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
And sweat and then a little bit of chlorine. And
that's like, I'm like, no bueno. I'm wearing goggles from
now on. Yeah, I mean, because I don't have time
for anything that's going to cause me that river sinitis.
Speaker 3 (11:34):
I'm shocked that you even open your eyes in the water.
You open your eyes underwater.
Speaker 2 (11:38):
Sometimes it happens.
Speaker 3 (11:39):
I can't see. I wouldn't be able to do that,
So okay, yeah, I won't change anything in our world
because I always assume I'm swimming in other people's stuff.
Like I know it's gross, but whatever. And by the way,
I've taught my son not to put that water in
his mouth, and swimming is just a cool off. I mean,
how much is your head.
Speaker 2 (12:00):
Of course, you have like an open wound somewhere, you
scratched yourself somewhere, and then that junk water, that river
sin water can get into your system. Then you end
up looking like that one Olympic athlete the other day.
After that triathlon, all like losing your lunch because you're sick.
Speaker 3 (12:16):
So you're not going in the pool anymore.
Speaker 2 (12:17):
Now, well, I'm not saying I'm not going to the pool,
but I'm saying I'm changing the way I think about
these goggles. And if I have an open woond, I
want to stay away from them because I don't need
no infections. But I used to me that I would
think that maybe ocean water was a little bit dirtier.
But no, not anymore.
Speaker 3 (12:32):
No, Actually ocean water or saltwater is really good for
a lot of things.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
Yeah.

What was it? Most important piece of information? Something you
should have had? Think about that, Give us a call,
we'll talk about it. Come up. They are supposed to
make your life better when it comes to email and
online stuff. Ninety seven point one Wash FM, Toby and
(20:16):
Chillian them wanting spam folders. It's an automatic algorithm, just
takes things and puts it in. You know, spam folder.
Ton't ask you if it's okay. If it does, it
just does. And the reason we're bringing this up is
because a.
Speaker 3 (20:29):
Woman in Michigan saw a suspicious email in her spam
folder but then realized it was two hundred and seven
thousand dollars lottery price. It was she forgot or she'd
been earning second chance drawing entries by playing certain online
lottery games. Can you imagine missing out on that much money?
(20:49):
Because well, how often are you checking your spam fold.
Speaker 2 (20:52):
Did she miss out completely or did she get the
chance to go run down there and say.
Speaker 3 (20:56):
Oh, wait a minute, No, she she did get a
chance to get it.
Speaker 2 (21:00):
Well, hallelujah. But it's a good problem to have. It
just stinks that you didn't know because it was in
your spam folder. And I guarantee you if I knew
I was waiting on something two hundred and something thousand dollars,
the last thing I would do is let they get
anywhere near a spam book.
Speaker 3 (21:16):
He didn't know she was waiting on it. It was
one of these like automatic playthings that she was I guess,
you know, collecting over time, and she didn't. Thank God,
she didn't lose out on it. That's better than finding
money in your pocket. The worst thing that goes. It's
annoying and troublesome. But sometimes I've had heated conversations with
insurance related things. Oh, they insist they sent me, and
(21:40):
I'm like, I don't have it in my inbox, and
it ends up because it was in my spam and
it was important for putting in for payment or something
like that. So now I always have to check the spam.
What about you?
Speaker 2 (21:50):
Yeah, First things first, I'm going to just put it
out there in full disclosure that I am not the
best with things like gift cards. I have a stack
of them, physical them. So I was part of a
clinical trial that paid me with gift cards for each
of my visits and different things and they were at
different levels. And about halfway through the trial, I think
something changed with an email address, like it was, you know,
(22:14):
like gift card at gift card dot com to begin with,
and it became gift card new at gift Cards.
Speaker 3 (22:20):
So it didn't look familiar.
Speaker 2 (22:21):
Yep, So my Gmail sticks it in a spam folder.
I had no idea they were in the spam folder,
and I'm like, wait a second, well, geez, activate all
of these and let's go spend the weekend someplace. N Hello, Hello,
you guys have any rooms this week? If I found
all these gift cards sitting in my spam folder, well crazy.
Speaker 3 (22:43):

about didn't get us in really bad trouble with work
or LIFESTYFF no.

This Michigan woman did not know she had over two
hundred thousand dollars of lottery winnings in her spam fold.
Speaker 2 (26:00):
Two hundred thousand dollars. Must spampuld it right now? I
would mysteriously get sick and I'd be at the bank
after I stopped by the lottery commission to catch my
two hundred thousand dollars? Are you kidding me? Jason? Thank
you for being here this morning in Germantown. What's your
take on this?
Speaker 4 (26:16):
I worked from home and it's a huge contract that
came in because it wound up in my spam. It
took a lot of conversations and convincing the client to understand,
but we were able to save the deal.
Speaker 1 (26:26):
It could have been a real disaster though.
Speaker 3 (26:28):
Is this sort of the modern day the dog ate
my homework?
