Speaker 5 (01:39):
Like?

Speaker 4 (01:39):
What is the what is the thing?

Speaker 1 (01:41):
I doesn't need to be about me?

Speaker 4 (01:43):
Like like why is that so bad?

Speaker 1 (01:45):
Because it doesn't need to be about me? Because the
friend show, that's nice. I appreciate that it worked really
hard for that. That's that's good enough for me. We
don't need to look at me, we don't need to
do any of that. It's fine. You don't know. We don't,
we don't know. We don't look at I don't need
to be the center of attention. I don't. I do
it profession and I'm very grateful for it. But no,
I wouldn't say that's my favorite part of the job.

Speaker 5 (02:05):
When you become a bride, you are going to do
all these things for you.

Speaker 1 (02:09):
Well, at this rate, someone gonna have to propose to
me because I don't think I'll be doing it. So, yeah,
I will become a bride at some point, I.

Speaker 5 (02:15):
Guess, yes, and we're going to do all the things
that's your time.

Speaker 6 (02:18):
Yes.

Speaker 1 (02:19):
People don't believe this. I'm a shy person. Believe I'm
a shy person, and I think I think there. I
was telling my therapist this the other day. There are
two things that I think there are multiple things ways
in which I think I misunderstood. One is I am
a shy person. The others I'm deaf in one here.
So I feel like people will like talk to me
and now I don't hear them. They're like, oh my god,
ignored me. It's so rude. No, I didn't hear you. Yeah,

(02:40):
and then I'm just not out here, like, uh hey
me me, me, me, me, yeah, you know, hey what
about No I am I know. But you do it
in such an endear Some people do it in an
obnoxious way where I am I'm drawn away from them.
You do it in such an endearing way. Thank you.
But I wish. I think my social media game would

(03:01):
be much stronger too, if I thought everything I did
was worthy of people looking at But that's the thing.

Speaker 5 (03:06):
I don't think everything I do is worthy of people
looking at I just like looking at me.

Speaker 6 (03:11):
For me.

Speaker 1 (03:12):
I don't care, y'all, no, but this is what I'm
talking about, Like, this is what I mean. I don't
have it.

Speaker 5 (03:18):
I watch my own instant story like, oh, yeah, you
know what I'm saying.

Speaker 1 (03:22):
I don't care if y'all like it, it's for me.

Speaker 4 (03:23):
You kind of go away.

Speaker 1 (03:24):
I watch your own stories.

Speaker 4 (03:26):
Yeah, but not even if I'm in it. Like I
just feel like my stories on Instagram are like I
love watching.

Speaker 2 (03:31):
What I did that day, Like like literally, if it's
going away, I start to mourn.

Speaker 4 (03:35):
I'm like, because I'll be in.

Speaker 5 (03:36):
Bed, like, oh my gosh, that's crazy.

Speaker 4 (03:39):
Yeah, like that's my friends.

Speaker 1 (03:41):
I feel so stupid.

Speaker 3 (03:42):
There's nothing I like listening to less than the sound
of my own voice.

Speaker 5 (03:46):
I will.

Speaker 3 (03:49):
If I could avoid that at all costs, I would
do that. I would never go back and listen to
anything I've said.

Speaker 1 (03:55):
The radio. The audio part is different, like I don't know,
like this is I'm comfortable with this. I'm proud of this,
I'm grateful for this. But me getting my camera outs
appointed at me to talk about something that I think,
or my day or my it makes me. It makes
me very uncomfortable because I just don't I feel stupid.

(04:15):
I'm like, hey, look at me talking about me. You
gotta look at me, though, because it wouldn't be the
same if you couldn't see me.

Speaker 4 (04:22):
That's not what it's saying to everyone.

Speaker 2 (04:24):
Like maybe that's how you see it, but like, I
don't think people receive it that way.

Speaker 4 (04:27):
Always.

Speaker 1 (04:29):
Oh, I think people. I think people receive social media
being very self centered.

Speaker 2 (04:32):
I don't watch anyone's story and go, gosh, there she
is again, Why is she posting that on her own story?

Speaker 1 (04:39):
No, I didn't say that. For me, it makes me uncomfortable.
I'm talking about myself. But I also I think people
look for validation. I think I think most people look
for validation on social media. I'll say I'm guilty of that.
If I post something, I will go look and see
if people liked it versus other things, which is hard
because it's kind of like the ratings and everything else.
Like yeah, I don't know. I mean Jason and I
posted something to get eighty four gazillion views and it

(05:01):
was it was funny, but it was whatever. And then
I'll post, like a, you know, a picture of something
I did that I think is worthy, you know, with
the animals or someone else, and it will get you know,
one hundred likes, and I'm like, well, what you made?
Like I posted? I made a video the other day
about how I was hungry at four thirty because it
was getting dark, and that got five thousand views. And
then I posted something else that I actually thought about

(05:21):
and no one watched it, which I don't think anything
to do with necessarily to do with me as much
as it does whatever the algorithm is and what people see,
but I don't know. I will say that I will
go look and see it. But that's that's the qualitative
part of me. That's the ratings come in every week,
and I judge how good my weekend's going to be
based on what I think people think of the show.
But that's different. I think that's different than you got

(05:42):
to look at me anyway, Jason, you ready the music.
I already played the music, but I'll play it again
because I know, I know you can't do this without them, ladies.
Many we're on two week. I think we had ish
or something like that of the NFL Jason's NFL Picks

(06:03):
and par Sleigh. Last week you were about fifty to fifty,
so that was better than the week before. If I'm
locked in this week, you are locked in. You just
made the picks about two minutes ago. Maybe these will
be better than the ones you thought about.

Speaker 3 (06:15):
Talking to my friends who beat us last night? Got
some intel, let's go.

Speaker 1 (06:19):
Well, yeah, you may as well, because we got beaten
by a sports show. A shout out to them, whoever
they are, you got beaten by them. I can't listen
to them because they're on the on the morning. Yeah
it was best morning show.

Speaker 3 (06:30):
Yeah it was best morning shows.

Speaker 1 (06:31):
Okay, well then I can't listen to them, so I
don't know what they did to hear Raiders Broncos ooh Raiders.
I had the Broncos one last night. Again. Every single
week I do this and every single week. To get it,
all you have to do is just go look at
who one last night. You forget this Thursday football?

Speaker 3 (06:48):
It's stupid.

Speaker 1 (06:49):
Why is it not all on Sunday? Okay? Whoa wait
to hear about Monday, blow your mind. Get there, Falcons, Colts, Falcons, Ravens, Vikings, Vikings, Giants, Bears, Bears,
Bill's Dolphins, Ooh, Dolphins, Cardinals, Seahawks, ooh, Seahawks, Lions, Commanders,

(07:09):
Lion brown In the Jets, Jets, Saints, and the Panthers. Panthers,
Patriots and the Buccaneers.

Speaker 3 (07:19):
The oh gosh, they're both so bad to me, to
you Tom Brady on both of them. Yeah, one points
any team for me, just because my complete disdain for
him as a human.

Speaker 2 (07:31):
Wow, And that though you know both teams are too.

Speaker 1 (07:34):
Yeah, I'm not sure I've ever heard his venom towards
Tom Brady before.

Speaker 3 (07:37):
I just think I just I don't like him as
a person, like his attitude. I think he's too egotistical.

Speaker 1 (07:44):
Well, he's not on either team now, so you can
pick us the mark of just staying well, which one
did he leave less of a mark of just say?
I really don't like the Patriots, so let's go with
the Buccaneers. Wow, this is the most conflicted I've ever heard.
You want to pick the Jaguars and the Texans? Ooh,
the Texas Rams, four nine Ers, the four Niners, Steelers

(08:04):
in the Chargers, Steelers and the Eagles and the Packers
Monday night foot Eagles mm, okay, all right, and then
the Parsleigh.

Speaker 3 (08:15):
So we have c J Stroud. Y'all know him. He's
gonna throw a touchdown this weekend. Okay, because he throws
jal Watt, that's the right. I did the right.

Speaker 1 (08:26):
Paga. Oh no, you're the one November ninth. No, I
did it. No, I did someone that I thought we
were playing the text and someone said, I don't know Sunday,
November night. That's what I med. Okay, go ahead, j
I'm trying to match me on the text. Okay, y'all
go leave me a lot of the comment. Leave me
a lot of the comment y'all go learn right.

Speaker 3 (08:41):
We're the real sports seasion. Jalen Wattle will run a score.

Speaker 4 (08:45):
In okay, my fantasy team.

Speaker 3 (08:47):
Okay, got you. And Caleb Williams is a hot take
you guys. He's gonna score five touchdowns. Excuse me, Williams.

Speaker 1 (08:57):
He's going to score five touchdowns himself personally.

Speaker 3 (09:03):
No, no, throw it or run it five touchdowns?

Speaker 1 (09:07):
Five yep? Okay, oh well right, because hes are scripted
and everyone knows that he's the outcome is predetermined, so
he got a hold of the script. Did you wow?
Five touchdowns? That would really be something if he were
able to do something like that. Okay, exciting, Well, thank you, Jason,

(09:28):
You're welcome. We need to brace for chaos at the
major US airport starting today. More flights set to be
canceled in the coming hours due to the government shutdown.
The Trump administration has directed airlines to reduce their flights
by four percent amid a nationwide shortage and air traffic controllers.
The TSA Secretary or Transportation secretary I think use his
TSA's Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy, said that the flight cuts

(09:51):
are necessary, warning up the stress on the national airspace
system has reached a point where it's no longer safe
to operate at full capacity. Beginning today, American Airline and
United Airlines so that they will each cancel more than
two hundred flights per day. Delta plans to cancel one
hundred and seventy Southwest roughly one hundred and twenty. The
reductions will impact forty of the country's busiest airports, including Atlanta,

(10:12):
New York, and Los Angeles. The cuts could increase to
ten percent by next Friday if the government remains shut down.
Elon Musk, guys, I want you to just understand this.
He was just awarded a raise, a bonus, a pay
package what by the shareholders of Tesla one trillion dollars,

(10:37):
one trillion dollars, which his take home will be somewhere
around guess when it's all said and done. Eight hundred
and seventy five billion dollars, not million, which would be
a lot of money in itself with a B eight,
just a cool eight hundred and seventy five billion dollars.
More than seventy five percent of Tesla's investors approved CEO

(10:57):
Elon Musk's record setting one million dollars pay baggage at
the electric vehicle maker's annual shareholder meeting on Thursday. He
had threatened to exit the company if the plan was rejected.
Several of Tesla's largest shareholders were against the deal. But yes,
one trillion dollars.

Speaker 4 (11:14):
I just know he's going to donate most of that.

Speaker 1 (11:16):
Of course, he CJ is out for the Texas by
the way, so you might want to come up.

Speaker 4 (11:19):
With another oh no, but that's what makes the bit.

Speaker 1 (11:24):
It just just a heads up that one's not going
to happen, So don't bet on that one if you're
not paying attention. J. I also don't know how I'm
going to raise my crops because the Farmer's Almanac, which
is a staple of American life, apparently since eighteen eighteen,
it's shutting down after more than two hundred years of publication. Yeah,
how are you going to know what the weather's going
to be like on your wedding deck?

Speaker 2 (11:41):
Right?

Speaker 1 (11:42):
Oh my goodness, there's no other way to find out.
I guess you have to fix this. Editors confirm the
declining print readership, rising production costs, and the shift towards
it digital weather forecasting made it impossible to keep the
annual guide profitable. The decision affects both the Farmer's Almanac
and its sister production, the Old Farmer's Almanac, which I
guess is something different that's going to continue online though

(12:02):
for now. The Almanac, known for its long range weather predictions,
gardening tips, and homespun wisdom, has was once I guess,
a go to resource for farmers and families across the US.
The final addition released this fall, as being called the
farewell to tradition after generations of forecasting and folk lore.
Sorry about that, guys.

Speaker 2 (12:20):
I have a vintage one, and now I'm wondering, is
it going to be like worth money?

Speaker 1 (12:24):
I'm going to see you on Antiques Roadshow in no time?

Speaker 4 (12:26):
Well, because I.

Speaker 2 (12:27):
Love the Farmer's Almanac, but I literally have one from
It might even be from like the eighteen hundred, a
really old one.

Speaker 4 (12:33):
And now I'm like, can I just knowing that?

Speaker 1 (12:34):
Yeah, you and Ela Musk going to go hang out
with you trillions? Wow? Yeah, yeah, that's exciting. And finally
this story caught Camon's eye this morning as well. But
at uk Man, who suffered a traumatic brain injury, began
experiencing vivid hallucinations of women's faces and breasts anywhere he
looked on walls, on cars, even in patterns on the floor.

(12:56):
The forty three year old developed the rare condition known
as pair paradalia. I may not have said that periodalia
after brain surgery to remove a benign tumor. I haven't
done brain surgery in a while, so I don't know that.
Would need to catch up on my terms. But the
phenomenon caused his brain to misfire and fill in faces

(13:17):
from random objects or textures. Despite the hallucinations, doctor said
that he could distinguish the images from reality and was
fully aware they weren't real. Neurologists said the case is
helping researchers understand how the brain process is facial recognition,
showing how certain regions can become overactive following trauma or surgery.
So this guy vivid hallucinations of faces in.

Speaker 6 (13:38):
Boobs, big boobs. They Oh, I didn't realize. Wow he
discriminates Yeah, not even medium ones. Yeah that's a shame.
I mean, you know, they're all wonderful. So I don't know.

Speaker 1 (13:49):
It's National Canine Lymphoma Awareness Day and National Jersey Friday,
which means I think today you could wear any jersey
you want. But you know how I feel about wearing
any jersey to end any sporting event. I have a
real problem with this, and I stand on this platform
someday when I run for office. You can't go to
the Bears game, you know was a Bears Giants You

(14:12):
really can't just go to the Bears Giants game wearing
a Jaguars jersey, As Jason says, that you just you
just can't. Maybe if one of your favorite players got traded, maybe,
but then I would say, if it's your favorite player,
you know, you might you might consider a jersey upgrade
if you can afford it, but you don't. We can't
just wear any jersey to any event.

Speaker 2 (14:29):
But you thought other sports were okay at certain games.

Speaker 1 (14:32):
Yeah, I suppose if there's like a let's say there's
a Bulls or Hornets or a you know whatever game
that day, and you're going to a football game that day,
I think you can wear that. You can wear a
basketball jersey to the football game. You could wear the
football jersey to the basketball game. But we're not just
wearing It's not just it's not just any jersey day.
You know, we're not showing up in our Chargers jersey

(14:53):
to the UH to the whatever game that where the
Chargers are, not no affiliation that charges whatsoever. You don't.
It doesn't show such as any but today though, today
is any jersey day. I think you could wear your
favorite college jersey perhaps, but I wouldn't even think that's appropriate.
If you're going to the game and you've got eight

(15:13):
thousand dollars to go to tickets to the NFL, then
you didn't get a jersey too.

Speaker 3 (15:17):
Yeah, I think it's weird to like wear other artists
merch to like artist shows like that seems like weird
to me too, Like, really, did I wear Christina Aguilarras
shirt to a Britney Spears concert.

Speaker 4 (15:27):
No, I think it's weirder to wear that artist's.

Speaker 3 (15:29):
Shirt, wear that merch, Like I wouldn't wear merch at
all a minute, Like if I was going to with
Kelly clarksonj I wouldn't wear Kelly Clarkson shirt, but I
also wouldn't wear like another band.

Speaker 1 (15:37):
I think that's gonna be weird because you wear a
Kelly Clarkson shirt every day. Yeah. I don't even know
what shirt you'd wear. I have no idea
