Speaker 1 (00:26):
Biggest stories of the.
Speaker 2 (00:27):
Day, Another day, another story about how it's going to
be cold wins. Your weather stretches from the Midwest to
the Northeast, and it's affecting millions of people across the country.
Temperatures of dip below freezing throughout parts of the Midwest
and Northeast. Twelve million people from eastern Kentucky to northern
North Carolina are under various weather alerts, with some areas
forecast to receive up to five inches of snow. Additional
(00:49):
snowfall of around three to six inches is expected for
our friends in North Dakota and then as far north
as New York and Vermont. A brief warm up, though
is expected midweek or another round of cold air arrives
on Friday. It's it's remarkably colder this year than previous years, right,
isn't it.
Speaker 1 (01:08):
It's like we've gotten a little spoiled. I think we
had a few mild winters. Yeah, it's back to normal.
Speaker 3 (01:14):
Yeah, last year was not bad, but it's not the
coldest I felt here.
Speaker 2 (01:18):
I just I've been all over the last couple of weeks.
Everywhere I go, I'm cold every single place, every single
It's like, I mean, Raleigh freezing rain. What are we doing?
This is not we don't do this here? Like, this
isn't what we do what this is not part of
the program. I mean, Charlotte Ice on the what are
we doing? Come back here? Blizzard that? I mean, Lisa's
supposed to have a blizzard. It's like, but what are
we doing? You know, in Virginia it's a lot but
(01:40):
cold in Florida. I'm like, Florida wasn't that supposed to
cold here at all? We're doing the powerball jack this
and this here, guys, this is why we're not gonna
have to deal with this much longer because the powerball
jack flies inching closed to do a billion dollars, and
I think it's time, don't you guys think I think
it's time.
Speaker 1 (01:54):
And I've said.
Speaker 2 (01:55):
Before that I think it's time, but I'm really thinking
that it's time. Like it's been a trying year. It's
been hard, you know, a lot going on. It's been
a good year. But we did it.
Speaker 1 (02:05):
We made it.
Speaker 2 (02:05):
Now we win the power Ball and then we just
distributed and then off we go, and maybe we still
did the little radio program.
Speaker 1 (02:10):
Maybe we don't. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (02:12):
Would you We've had this conversation before, but could you
really get up, like after a late night like last night,
really get up at four in the morning if you
had two hundred and fifty million dollars in the bank.
I'd like to believe that I would do it for
the love, but I don't know. I think the Frend
Show might become an afternoon show really quickly, and maybe
only like Tuesday Wednesday.
Speaker 3 (02:34):
You know, well, then I'm rocking with you Monday night.
Speaker 2 (02:37):
I can't when And then maybe i'd pay them a
listener so they didn't have to work on Mondays either,
So it was fair, yeah, because I know they're they're
listening to going. We didn't win the power Ball. So then,
but let's face it, if any of you listening won
the power Ball, you wouldn't be up this early either,
so you will you'd have to listen to podcasts later.
Speaker 1 (02:51):
So let's let's let's stop the BS.
Speaker 3 (02:52):
I think we stay really, you know, mix it up,
little wine, little this, and we do some shows and
then they get them in the morning.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
Ooh yeah, and they get what they get. Yeah, So
it's rolling over again. Close to a billion dollars, nine
hundred and thirty million dollars will be on the line
for tomorrow, so I guess that's Wednesday night, nine hundred
and thirty million dollars, a cash option four hundred and
twenty nine million, And I'm not gonna tell you the odds.
It doesn't matter because one of us is gonna win.
(03:20):
Jimmy Kimmel has signed a one year extension with Disney.
Speaker 1 (03:24):
That's kind of mean.
Speaker 2 (03:25):
He's only doing one more year, right, Why would you
only sign a one year deal? Yeah, if it wasn't
gonna be your last year. I mean, I don't know
why you wouldn't sign five and then quittin three or something,
you know what I mean? Like, why I don't know
why you would just do one if you're that guy.
But of course you remember earlier this year, executives temporarily
yanked the show off the air after a monologue the
(03:45):
spark political controversy. They brought the show back, and so
we'll see, we'll see what happens with that. But a
one year that stands to me like a like a
like a goodbye tour kind of thing. Today'sy're all day
for this story. But people who regularly get less than
seven hours of sleep each night may also be shortening
their lives. It's been nice. I know that it's been nice.
(04:08):
I don't think I'm going to make it much longer
because it's been like this for years. Analyzing nationwide data,
research has found that sleep or lack of it, is
among the strongest predictors of life expectancy, second only to smoking,
sleeping under seven hours at night, which I think, is
anyone really getting eight hours of sleep as a grown
up really?
Speaker 1 (04:26):
Anyway? I have friends who do, and I'm like, oh,
eight hours, I want interrupt.
Speaker 3 (04:30):
And they're like I need it or I can't function,
and I'm like, hold me.
Speaker 2 (04:34):
Back, because I think even if I had eight hours
to sleep. I would find a way to only get six.
Like if you were to say to me, Okay, it's
eight o'clock, nine o'clock, it's dark, it's winter, you don't
have to get up till five. Enjoy eight hours of sleep.
I'd mess around on TikTok for an hour. Maybe I'd
fall asleep for a little bit phone with dang somebody
(04:54):
that I get the phone again.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
I feel like something would prevent me from hitting eight
hours of sleep, even if I have the opportunity to
get eight hours of sleep, because I just don't think
it's possible.
Speaker 3 (05:04):
Don't you on like a Friday, though, don't you get
like fifteen hours of sleep over Friday?
Speaker 1 (05:09):
Fifteen hours?
Speaker 2 (05:11):
Yeah? Well maybe on Fridays, but sometimes. But I also wish.
I wish you could bank sleep and you can't. Like
I wish I could like a phone, like I wish
I could recharge all weekend and be like, I'll be
good whatever happens Monday through Friday, Like I'll be all
right because I banked it all weekend. It doesn't work
that way. In fact, I think if you oversleep, you
(05:31):
wind up tired too.
Speaker 1 (05:32):
Yes, I hate that feeling so Sleeping under.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
Seven hours a night appears to raise the risk of
earlier death by affecting key systems in the body. Yeah,
from a heart and metabolic help to immune and brain function.
In short, skimping on sleep isn't about feeling tired the
next day. Over time, it will shave years off of
your life. Do you want to know who the worst
drivers are? And I hate to do this, but we
(05:56):
have some friends in North Dakota. The worst drivers, apparently,
according to a new survey, live in North Dakota.
Speaker 1 (06:03):
How can that be?
Speaker 2 (06:04):
There aren't But there aren't that many people in North Dakoa.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
I mean, how could it be bad? How much you
can correct me? Why not? But how much traffic is there?
Speaker 2 (06:14):
Yes, Sioux Falls, is that South Dakota anyway, doesn't matter
the Dakotas. How much traffic in all of the Dakota's
is there?
Speaker 1 (06:20):
Really?
Speaker 2 (06:21):
Because I feel like traffic is where the bad driving
is really revealed? Don't you think I would think so?
Can we also talk about I'd like to do a
public service. I've been reminded of it the last several
times that I was driving, even last night, eleven o'clock
at night, on the highway.
Speaker 1 (06:34):
And here's this is no judgment.
Speaker 2 (06:36):
If you are in the left lane of a road,
any any road, two lanes, four lanes, it doesn't matter.
If you are in the far left lane and people
are passing you on the right, get over you, my friend,
are going too slow. Now that I'm not saying you
can't drive the speed limit or whatever, but you just
got to move over. But if you consistently see if
(06:58):
people are quickly approaching you from the back, you know
that could be a great night. Eight hours of sleep
could be compromised by that. And if you quickly approach
me from the back, then we can do We can
do less than eight hours.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
I'll live in shorter life. It's fine.
Speaker 2 (07:13):
But like last night, more than once I come rolling
up on someone in the left lane, They're not going
to change their speed. If I saw someone come up
on me that fast, I would get out of the
way because I'm like, oh, this person, you know I'm
impeding the progress here.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
No, they just stay there.
Speaker 2 (07:27):
And so if you're consistently being passed on the right
side of your car, you are going too slowly for
the lane that you were in.
Speaker 1 (07:34):
Say it loud and all you have to do. Just
simply just move over. That's all you gotta do.
Speaker 3 (07:39):
People here don't know that rule, and it's.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
Clearly it's an epidemic.
Speaker 3 (07:44):
I took a vote on social one time. A lot
of people say they didn't even learn that that was
the passing lane.
Speaker 1 (07:48):
You can't go slowly in the left lane. You're not allowed. Correct.
Speaker 2 (07:52):
Some would argue that the left lane should always be open.
Some would argue, you're not even supposed to travel in
the left lane because it's only for passing.
Speaker 3 (07:59):
Right.
Speaker 1 (08:00):
I don't know about that into that. No, No, I
don't like that.
Speaker 3 (08:02):
But I'll figure out our speed together and if we're
you know, going fast, we work together.
Speaker 2 (08:07):
Yeah, But I like to use our platform for good
and this is an opportunity for that. And I usually
wait till it becomes, you know, a real problem. And
I think it's been a problem for you know, generations,
but it seems lately like it's more of an issue.
So I just wanted to don't say that we don't
stand on business around here.
Speaker 1 (08:23):
That's right.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
But North Dakota, New Jersey, Utah, Rhode Island, Washington State,
Main Idaho, Washington, d C, California, Montana, worst drivers, best
drivers Michigan, Florida, Colorado, Connecticut, Illinois, Questionable, Texas, West Virginia, Pennsylvania, Mississippi,
and Missouri. And remember the drunk raccoon from last week,
we love, we loved the drunk raccoon. We have. Well,
(08:45):
they released him, so he may be in raccoon rehab.
Speaker 1 (08:49):
I hope that he is.
Speaker 2 (08:49):
He that was quite a bender he was on, Yeah,
and then you know it passed that next to the toilet.
I mean, we've all been there, but at yam So
some very smart people at the animal shelter that were
involved in his rescue made merch and they've made a
ton of money. The raccoon that went viral for going
on a bender in a Virginia liquor store. If you
didn't hear this story, the raccoon somehow broke into a
(09:11):
liquor store and got drunk. Now, I didn't realize they
had opposable thumbs. I don't know how he got the liquor.
I don't know which liquor he chose. I don't know
if he has good taste. Is he a vodka guy,
is he a whiskey guy. I don't know, But they
made merch. The raccoon has been safely released into the wild,
but the Hanover County Animal Protection and Shelter has been
selling merch with an image of the drunk raccoon next
(09:32):
to a spilled bottle of liquor, the trashed panda shirts,
stickers and hoodies and tumblers as well. Why not tumblers
get in the Starbucks game, guys. I so far brought
in one hundred and fifty six thousand dollars for the shelter.
You can get it on the fundraising side bonfire. It's
the Hanover County Animal Protection and Shelter if you would
like to have yourself in time for the holidays and
(09:56):
a drunk raccoon t shirt. Related news, the Fred Show
has a merch store as well, and we did this
because people wanted little shirts and stuff like that, and
we don't have the budget to have enough to give everyone,
so we have them available now. If you go to
Fretchhire Radio on Instagram, Fretchhiradio dot com, you'll see we
have a merch store. And I will say it again,
I've made a speech a couple of times.
Speaker 1 (10:17):
Jason.
Speaker 2 (10:17):
You were in Los Angeles at Jingle Ball Los Angeles.
But the first merch store was not the best merch store.
Speaker 1 (10:25):
No, we learned. Lessons were learned. We had to start
somewhere right. Lessons were learned.
Speaker 2 (10:30):
And I'm glad that people are now just now receiving
their products from Latch.
Speaker 3 (10:34):
Well, they never told us when they wanted them, you know,
and you just.
Speaker 2 (10:37):
Said, yea, that is a good point. You guys wanted merchant.
So we got it for you. We didn't know is
that it would take, you know, six months, but we
got it all straightened out. Now you got good prices.
One dollar goes to Larry Children's Hospital in Chicago that
we is a worldwide respected organization. I hope you'd never
need them, but if you're there, one dollar from your
(10:58):
purchase goes to them. And we had T shirts, We've
got hats, we have sweatshirts, we have fanny pasts.
Speaker 1 (11:06):
Yes, yeah, I ordered on there. It's good.
Speaker 2 (11:10):
And then it's no minimum mortar quantity and stuff shows
up pretty quickly.
Speaker 1 (11:14):
And I guess, have you received the merch Well, I
send it to our friends at Disney and Ice, so
shout out to Randy. Yeah, so she should be getting
it soon. And I hope that's me know when she
gets it. But it was really easy to use, and
he has a dollar goes to hilaries. It's awesome. Okay, good.
Speaker 2 (11:26):
So anyway, you can either go get yourself in a
Drunk Raccoon T shirt or you can give yourself a
one of the thirteen fred shirt on our website. We
would love it if you did that, and I help
us raise money and we don't make any money on this.
By the way, just for the record, there's no well,
Jason might be profiting, but the rest of us, we don't.
Speaker 1 (11:44):
Really.
Speaker 2 (11:44):
I don't I trust him implicitly, so I have no
idea what the accounting on all of this is. He
did drive in on a new BMW this morning, so
I don't know. It's Christmas Card Day today and it's
National Pastry Day today as well.
This is the fread show.

the left lane because it's only for passing.
Speaker 3 (07:59):
Right.
Speaker 1 (08:00):
I don't know about that into that. No, No, I
don't like that.
Speaker 3 (08:02):
But I'll figure out our speed together and if we're
you know, going fast, we work together.
Speaker 2 (08:07):
Yeah, But I like to use our platform for good
and this is an opportunity for that. And I usually
wait till it becomes, you know, a real problem. And
I think it's been a problem for you know, generations,
but it seems lately like it's more of an issue.
So I just wanted to don't say that we don't
stand on business around here.
Speaker 1 (08:23):
That's right.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
But North Dakota, New Jersey, Utah, Rhode Island, Washington State,
Main Idaho, Washington, d C, California, Montana, worst drivers, best
drivers Michigan, Florida, Colorado, Connecticut, Illinois, Questionable, Texas, West Virginia, Pennsylvania, Mississippi,
and Missouri. And remember the drunk raccoon from last week,
we love, we loved the drunk raccoon. We have. Well,
(08:45):
they released him, so he may be in raccoon rehab.
Speaker 1 (08:49):
I hope that he is.
Speaker 2 (08:49):
He that was quite a bender he was on, Yeah,
and then you know it passed that next to the toilet.
I mean, we've all been there, but at yam So
some very smart people at the animal shelter that were
involved in his rescue made merch and they've made a
ton of money. The raccoon that went viral for going
on a bender in a Virginia liquor store. If you
didn't hear this story, the raccoon somehow broke into a
(09:11):
liquor store and got drunk. Now, I didn't realize they
had opposable thumbs. I don't know how he got the liquor.
I don't know which liquor he chose. I don't know
if he has good taste. Is he a vodka guy,
is he a whiskey guy. I don't know, But they
made merch. The raccoon has been safely released into the wild,
but the Hanover County Animal Protection and Shelter has been
selling merch with an image of the drunk raccoon next
(09:32):
to a spilled bottle of liquor, the trashed panda shirts,
stickers and hoodies and tumblers as well. Why not tumblers
get in the Starbucks game, guys. I so far brought
in one hundred and fifty six thousand dollars for the shelter.
You can get it on the fundraising side bonfire. It's
the Hanover County Animal Protection and Shelter if you would
like to have yourself in time for the holidays and
(09:56):
a drunk raccoon t shirt. Related news, the Fred Show
has a merch store as well, and we did this
because people wanted little shirts and stuff like that, and
we don't have the budget to have enough to give everyone,
so we have them available now. If you go to
Fretchhire Radio on Instagram, Fretchhiradio dot com, you'll see we
have a merch store. And I will say it again,
I've made a speech a couple of times.
Speaker 1 (10:17):
Jason.
Speaker 2 (10:17):
You were in Los Angeles at Jingle Ball Los Angeles.
But the first merch store was not the best merch store.
Speaker 1 (10:25):
No, we learned. Lessons were learned. We had to start
somewhere right. Lessons were learned.
Speaker 2 (10:30):
And I'm glad that people are now just now receiving
their products from Latch.
Speaker 3 (10:34):
Well, they never told us when they wanted them, you know,
and you just.
Speaker 2 (10:37):
Said, yea, that is a good point. You guys wanted merchant.
So we got it for you. We didn't know is
that it would take, you know, six months, but we
got it all straightened out. Now you got good prices.
One dollar goes to Larry Children's Hospital in Chicago that
we is a worldwide respected organization. I hope you'd never
need them, but if you're there, one dollar from your
(10:58):
purchase goes to them. And we had T shirts, We've
got hats, we have sweatshirts, we have fanny pasts.
Speaker 1 (11:06):
Yes, yeah, I ordered on there. It's good.
Speaker 2 (11:10):
And then it's no minimum mortar quantity and stuff shows
up pretty quickly.
Speaker 1 (11:14):
And I guess, have you received the merch Well, I
send it to our friends at Disney and Ice, so
shout out to Randy. Yeah, so she should be getting
it soon. And I hope that's me know when she
gets it. But it was really easy to use, and
he has a dollar goes to hilaries. It's awesome. Okay, good.
Speaker 2 (11:26):
So anyway, you can either go get yourself in a
Drunk Raccoon T shirt or you can give yourself a
one of the thirteen fred shirt on our website. We
would love it if you did that, and I help
us raise money and we don't make any money on this.
By the way, just for the record, there's no well,
Jason might be profiting, but the rest of us, we don't.
Speaker 1 (11:44):
Really.
Speaker 2 (11:44):
I don't I trust him implicitly, so I have no
idea what the accounting on all of this is. He
did drive in on a new BMW this morning, so
I don't know. It's Christmas Card Day today and it's
National Pastry Day today as well.
