in every friend group there's there's at least one donkey,

(01:27):
even in the hottest friend group. Wouldn't you agree?

Speaker 4 (01:31):
I cannot think of one of my friends that I
would call a donkey.

Speaker 3 (01:35):
Nope.

Well, I mean, I don't think you're gonna say it
out loud right now.

(02:14):

the ports cap?

Speaker 4 (02:16):
I will tell you who says that they time traveled
back to the seventies and watch David Bowie in concert.

Speaker 3 (02:25):
Okay, like this is something that somebody's really exciting.

Speaker 1 (02:29):
I would time travel back to see a lot of artists,
Michael Jackson one of them. I would time travel back
for Michael Jackson. Oh yeah, what comes to mind for
you guys immediately? Well, time travel back to see Aellini?
Oh yes, Lina, full of them?

Speaker 3 (02:43):
Oh my goodness, Tupac, Oh, yes, there's so.

Speaker 4 (02:47):
Many it would be yeah, oh Nirvana, that's a great
that would be a period.

Speaker 2 (02:52):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (02:54):
A Speak of Tupac is a new Tupac book, and
I bought two copies and one it's for my friend Kaylin.
So you're gonna have to read a book. It's a
fithysical book because you know, I'm a physical book guy. Yeah,
but I'm a physical like I got to hold the
thing too in my hand.

Speaker 2 (03:06):
I don't like a kindle.

Speaker 1 (03:08):
No, so this is good, so you'll enjoy it. But yeah,
well Tupac wrote the book no, because he's still alive
on an island. That's what he's been doing. He and
Amelia Earhart have been hanging out and they've been they've
been working on a book together. It's a it's a
joint book, Rogers. Well, yeah, and and if you believe
the TikTok videos I've been sending you, then mister Rogers
is also their writing books too.

Speaker 3 (03:27):
That fred I hate to bring it to.

Speaker 1 (03:30):
No, Tupac and mister Rodgers are friends, and they're still
alive in together, and they're putting on sweaters and taking
their shoes off and playing in sandboxes and whatever else
mister Rodgers did. And to go on one more tangent,
do you ever think about how creepy mister Rogers would
be in this era? Like do you ever think about, like,
would you ever allow your kid to just go over
to the like the single grown man's house to play

(03:51):
in the sandbox together in the backyard, Like I probably
not anymore?

Speaker 2 (03:55):
You know, won't you be my neighbor? Yeah? I probably wouldn't.

Speaker 4 (03:59):
I mean his car again is tempting and does make him,
you know, not so offensive. But yeah, that'd be a
tough sell for me if my kid wanted to go
over to that older gentleman's home and play.

Speaker 1 (04:09):
With Fred Rodgers was a wonderful man. We had nothing
to worry about with old Fred Rogers. But then he
had like the weird but he have like the postman friend,
and when't he like the milkman. He knew everybody in town,
and he was always taking kids to the you know,
different places to see stuff. It's like the candy factory.
It's like this is getting weird. You know, the single
guy next door in his fifties is taking my kid
to go to the candy store to see how it's made.

(04:32):
It's weird.

Speaker 4 (04:32):
Something I'll never forget about him, about how wasn't he
didn't he make like history when he was like one
of the taulin You remember the story he had like
they bathed their feet together, he and a black man,
and he made TV controversial or something.

Speaker 2 (04:48):
As he did.

Speaker 3 (04:49):
I never forgot that story about good old Fred Rogers.

Speaker 1 (04:51):
And we looked this up yet because you know, it's
actually a very I want to say, he oh, I
don't want to get this ry, I get this wrong,
Fred Runner.

Speaker 6 (05:00):
Like haw didn't happen yet or something exactly what you said, Kaylen.
And he also fought for I think like PBS funding
or something for all.

Speaker 1 (05:05):
He did do that.

Speaker 2 (05:06):
Yeah, I mean he was That was a man.

Speaker 1 (05:08):
That was a name.

Speaker 4 (05:09):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (05:09):
Fred Rogers Racial history is marked by his commitment to
racial equality and his role in challenging racial segregation on television.
His most notable act occurred in nineteen sixty nine, when
he invited Officer Clevens, a black police officer, to share
a pool with him, a moment that broke racial barriers
and sent a powerful message about the importance of equality
and friendship. The act was part of his broader message

(05:30):
of kindness and compassion, which he conveyed through his children's program,
Mister Rogers Neighborhood. So this was him taking a stand. Wow,
the two of them on TV. I guess they were
watching their feet together.

Speaker 3 (05:43):
Yeah, Nic, we need Rogers now more than I I
miss him.

Speaker 2 (05:47):
Bring them back, come back.

Speaker 3 (05:49):
Yeah, I need you.

Speaker 1 (05:50):
I don't remember there. We had seven topics that we
covered in the first five minutes. I don't even remember
where I was going with this, Oh I know, Well,
actually I don't, but I don't be because I knew
where I was going, I knew the direction that we
were going, and then I don't anymore. It's fine. Sorry,
I'm looking at this. You said that your friend Hillary Hot,
Hillary Yeah, is using chat GPT to communicate with men.

Speaker 4 (06:16):
Yes, she's literally letting AI answer men from the dating
apps for her, like what are we doing?

Speaker 2 (06:24):
I love this.

Speaker 1 (06:25):
I would love to try this. I just don't know,
so like, okay, because I have my chat GPT pulled
up and I was trying to simulate what this would
look like. So so a guy will be like, hello, Hey,
how you doing, and then she has to type that
in chat GPT to see what out of respond like,
I'm doing okay.

Speaker 4 (06:41):
Honestly probably, But no, what if you said to Chad
Because she's actually an Arizona right now in your hood, Fred,
so she is still sleeping, so I can't ask her.
But why don't you say to Chad, Hey, a girl
said this to me, what should I say back? I mean,
I think she's got the high covered. But moving on
from there, I think I hope, so I hope.

Speaker 1 (07:01):
So let me let me see the last time that
I talked to someone on a dating app, and if
there's any kind of prompt that I could type in
here that would okay? Well, someone said good morning, someone
said hey, there a couple high theirs. I mean, there's
like nothing, there's nothing here to work with. I don't
know what I'm typing in. How do I talk to

(07:25):
a woman on the dating apps? Okay? How do we
do that? All right? Chats thinking about them? Good question.
This is the part of the chat TBT that annoys
me is all of like the pleasantries. That's an excellent
and then a bunch of stuff. Just tell me how
to do it? Good question. This is one of the
most common and most fixable challenges in dating apps. Here's

(07:48):
a breakdown of how to talk to women on dating
apps in a way that actually sparks interesting connection. This
is great. Start with her not you don't open with
hey or what's up? Everybody does that genuine interest. Look
at something specific from her profile, a hobby, something like
that you hike? Really that's elite? What's your favorite trail?

Speaker 2 (08:10):
Ooh?

Speaker 1 (08:11):
Okay, all right? I keep it light and playful as
opposed to what like you talking about Israel and guys?
In the first message, you know, like, hey, what do
you think about trump Man? Like, yeah, it's probably not
avoid deep or heavy topics. And they give examples. Tom,
you seem like you'd either dominate at trivia night or

(08:31):
get distracted by the snacks. Which is it?

Speaker 4 (08:36):
Oh right, Like I did a train Chad, like Paulina said,
you need to train him.

Speaker 6 (08:40):
You need to make a little bit on the side
because you get to make all these different persona side
by Yeah, so you have to create the bot that's
going to be doing certain tasks. So that's all hollering
at girls. You need to make like you know, like
like Fred's I don't know women or something, and put
it on the side and then feed that one only
so it gets stronger.

Speaker 3 (08:57):
Does that make sense?

Speaker 1 (08:59):
What does that even mean?

Speaker 6 (09:01):
You?

Speaker 1 (09:02):
Like, what are you saying? I don't I don't know
what you're saying A bunch of words.

Speaker 6 (09:05):
I don't understand AI, And I'm teaching you all about it.
So basically, what you do is you're going to create
a persona, and in this persona, you're going to feed
it more and more every day so that it grows
so scared.

Speaker 2 (09:16):
So what do you feed it? Like you wake up
and like, feed it is crazy, right, how do you
feed it?

Speaker 6 (09:21):
Your examples apply this woman for me, or apply to
this person for me, like seed it and sound like me.

Speaker 5 (09:28):
I'm Fred, so it has to get to know you.

Speaker 2 (09:29):
God, how are you talking like?

Speaker 3 (09:31):
Sound a player persona for Fred for sure?

Speaker 6 (09:34):
And make sure to let them like Ted yeah, be
like hey, I'm kind of cool with it, Like, don't
be corny, like you have.

Speaker 2 (09:38):
To tell it then, That's what I know. You have
to tell it.

Speaker 1 (09:40):
Don't be corny, don't be that's what you tell it
for all your dating app masquerading, but you do.

Speaker 6 (09:45):
No, just like my emails, because like Jack can be
very corny, like I would never say that.

Speaker 1 (09:49):
I don't know. Well, I'm noticing that as he's being corny,
he or shere being corny right now? Match her energy,
avoid job interview vibes. I get that, build a flirty rhythm,
the rhythm, move off the app naturally. After some back
and forth with good Vibes, suggests moving to text or
a quick coffee drink. You're fun to talk to. You

(10:11):
want to grab a drink and see if our real
life banter holds up. Dude, I'm dry like I'm so
drum bone dry right now, Like this is unbelievable, talks
like okay, hold on now. It says, if you want,
I can write a few example openers for different types
of women. Oh indeed, I would like that. I would
like that. I would very much like that. I mean,

(10:35):
this is ridiculous perfect. This is where things get fun.
Here's some custom opener examples that you could actually use
this I'm supposed to be. I'm supposed to be. I
don't know. This might be better than my own game.
I don't know. So. Uh for the funnier playful woman,
if you if I hold them, I feel like you'd

(10:56):
roast me in a group chat and I'd secretly enjoy it.

Speaker 4 (10:59):
Accurate, that's kind of cute, except for like the secretly
enjoy Like something about roasting you in the group chat
some a massacres.

Speaker 1 (11:06):
I like to be dominated, that's what that really means,
which isn't true. Like you look like the kind of
person who laughs at your own jokes, which I respect.
I don't know if that's it. I mean that might
make First of all, how do I know if you're
the funny, playful one? If I've never met you or
spoken to you. Second of all, if someone said to

(11:27):
me in an opening line, you look like someone who
laughs at your own jokes, first I'd say, yes, you're right,
But then I would I don't know that I would
necessarily think you were being nice to me, you know,
because I mean I might think that's not necessarily a
good thing if you laugh at your own jokes. But
the adventurous or outdoors heat type serious question, if we

(11:47):
went was it with hiking in this thing? Serious question?
If we went hiking, would you judge me for bringing
snacks labeled emergency chips?

Speaker 3 (11:55):
They don't ever say that, literally never what.

Speaker 1 (11:58):
The bookish, thoughtful, creative one. This is for the different
types of women your profile gives off main character in
a Sophia Coppola movie, Energy Coppola Sophia Coppola movie Energy. Okay,
you listed three artists. I like, are you trying to
emotionally damage me or test my taste? Tell these are bad?
You need to tell your friend Hillary. Hillary's better off

(12:21):
coming up with this stuff on her own.

Speaker 3 (12:23):
She's really not well.

Speaker 2 (12:24):
I don't know, I feel Hillary on that.

Speaker 4 (12:28):
Yeah, she's she's shy, like she's just a little shy
and that's me.

Speaker 7 (12:31):
I have no game. Like if I was trying to
hollow or make a new friend, I really have no game.
So I need chat GPT to tell me what to say.

Speaker 1 (12:39):
But none of this would work on you.

Speaker 2 (12:40):
I don't know. I would try it, like, probably.

Speaker 1 (12:45):
It, man. But if I'm hitting on you, Kiki and
I said any of this stuff, you'd be like, you're
you're cheesy man, Like you're totally goofy for this.

Speaker 7 (12:51):
I would pace your response into my chat GPT. Just
let our machines talk to each other.

Speaker 5 (12:56):
Yeah yeah, yeah, people do that with emails all day.

Speaker 2 (12:59):
Oh it's chat going back.

Speaker 7 (13:00):
And forth you yep, you chat The ambitious or career
driven type.

Speaker 1 (13:06):
You strike me as someone who sets alarms even on weekends.
True or false?

Speaker 2 (13:09):
Jason, Yeah, so that would work? Yeah yeah.

Speaker 1 (13:16):
Right, oh yeah, the animal lover or soft hearted type.
If your dog likes me, does that mean I automatically
get a second date? That's not bad, that's not bad.
But wait a minute, why do I mean your dog
on a first date? That's presumptuous.

Speaker 4 (13:28):
Yeah, I would be like the fact that you think
you would even come around her.

Speaker 1 (13:31):
Right, that's what I mean? Like, so you think you're
coming to the house on the first day. Yes, your spout.
I was gonna let you figure that one out. Yeah,
I was working on them. Would you like me to
write this is chat Chipeta? Would you like me to
write follow up messages too? Like what to say? After
she replies yeah, yes, I would, Actually yes I would.

Speaker 3 (13:53):
But be cool?

Speaker 1 (13:54):
Yeah, but but be cool, man, I'm gonna put that.
But be cool. Okay, here we go. You look like okay,
so here we go. You. Oh, we had a little
role play here. You look like the kind of person
who laughs at your own jokes. Obviously someone has to
laugh at them. Okay, now that's not good at comeback.
That's not good. That's not a good comeback. M If

(14:17):
we went hiking, would you judge me for bringing snacks
labeled emergency chips only if you don't share the chips.

Speaker 4 (14:26):
If you keep trying to take me hiking, I'm thinking
that you're trying to kill me.

Speaker 2 (14:29):
If you like.

Speaker 1 (14:31):
I've seen a lot of daylines where they pushed the
person off the cliff. You know, I don't know they slipped,
they slipped, and and then you know, now I'm at
home with your dog who doesn't like me. It's weird,
like it's weird. I don't, I'm not, I'm not.

Speaker 4 (14:41):
No.

Speaker 1 (14:42):
I think your friend needs to come up with it,
maybe like a higher a dating coach or something, because
I don't know.

Speaker 4 (14:47):
Well, I'm all she can afford. So I try to
write her messages for her too with Chad. But yeah,
she said, she literally puts the message in and just
onto whatever Chad.

Speaker 2 (14:55):
So she must have a sidebot, like Paulina said. I
didn't know we had means and sides. I had no idea.
You got to create.

Speaker 5 (15:00):
Well, you want, you want people you know to talk
to you chat.

Speaker 1 (15:03):
Yeah, okay, see this is the fifteen dollar version of
chat GPT. By the way, I mean, I paid fifteen
bucks a month for this. I wonder if the two
hundred dollars version like actually goes over there and like
negotiates for you.

Speaker 2 (15:14):
Or something like it better for two hundred For.

Speaker 1 (15:16):
Two hundred bucks a money I need to ask my
rich friend because he's the guy, the only guy I know.
I didn't even know there was a two hundred dollars
a month chat GPT, but there is, and if you
go into subscriptions, it's there. I'm not doing it, but
I also would love to know, like, what exactly is
that thing doing for two hundred dollars a month that
this I don't mean, what is that Google can't do?
Like I need to understand, right the biggest stories of

(15:37):
the day. So, Kiki, you said your friend texted you,
and she'll put the entire like all of the messages
of the dude sent into chat GPT and then chat
gpt s fits out responses.

Speaker 7 (15:48):
Yes, And she said she would especially do it if
it was something that she didn't like that the guy said,
and she didn't want to come off like mean or
just you know, react to them, so she would let
chat put it in a nice sweet tone.

Speaker 6 (15:59):
Oh I like, yes, I like that.

Speaker 1 (16:04):
Okay, So now we're having you know, to your point
about chat GPT just doing like you know, I write
to the person and then chat GPT. She has them
running back to me like how long until we're not
even talking to the real people anymore? Because these aren't
my natural responses. This isn't what I would normally say.

Speaker 6 (16:20):
You know.

Speaker 1 (16:20):
So now now you now you meet up with me, Kiki,
and like, I'm not any.

Speaker 7 (16:24):
Of that, right, I mean, that's what's gonna happen for it.
I already told you, like the robots are here, baby,
we're out of here. We only got a limited time.
So you know, by the time they meet up, it
might be Chat pulling up, you know, like it might.

Speaker 2 (16:37):
It might we might be talking through Chat.

Speaker 7 (16:39):
I don't know, but I'm here for this because I
think this can save a lot of relationships and marriages.
You know, when I want to tell Timothy he is X,
Y and Z, instead of me just saying that it's Kiki,
I'll say chat please tell me how to tell my
fiance that he is getting on my nerves and I
want to harm m.

Speaker 2 (16:55):
And then, you know, make.

Speaker 6 (16:56):
It respect, make it Yes, specific, guys.

Speaker 7 (17:01):
I think we should start using this a little bit
with the relationships. It might change some things helped me. Yeah, well, guys,
this is how we should use CHATTYPT. Because friend Hayter
Lawrence up this morning listening for the four hundredth consecutive day.
The person who the person who hates our show but
listens the most, says you should ask chat GPT how
to raise your ratings.

Speaker 1 (17:19):
Yeah, you're right. We could go from number one to
number one. You more on and then it's one of
the responses might be, don't talk about all the girls
you bang? Have I said one? Has anyone in this
room said one time anything about that?

Speaker 3 (17:36):
No?

Speaker 2 (17:36):
No, no, I'm always.

Speaker 1 (17:39):
This person is. Honestly, I feel bad for this person.
I feel bad because this person's obviously mentally ill and
it's terrible and I'm going to stop reading these tactics.
It's very sad because I don't even know what you're
listening to. That actually sounds like a better show if
we were talking to maybe maybe chat GPT would tell
me that I should I should be talking about them
if that were happening, which it hasn't, because I'm we're

(17:59):
tied in the last year zero. Oh hell, yeah, that's
a true story. Really, that's a true one. In the
last in the last twelve months one what Yeah, it's true.
So there you go. I did it there. Thanks for
the advice, Fred Hayter Laurin appreciate it, guys. More shrimp
for being check. If we talk about shrimp, the ratis

(18:21):
will go way up. That's that's what it is. They'll
go way up. More shrimp for being recalled due to radiation.
So we got radiated shrimp out there in addition to
yeah another, I guess there's more than one company recalling
it's frozen shrimp to the possibility of exposure to radiation levels.
According to a news release issue by the FDA, the
shrimp may have been exposed to very low levels of

(18:42):
a particular form of radiation. Products included in the most
recent shrimp recall were sold under the brand Aqua Star,
Public's Best Yet, and Waterfront Bistro. The FDA says no
illnesses have been reported, but customers who have bought the
affected shrimp could either throw it away or return to
the store that it was firchain. The list of recold
items can be found on the FDA website. This is

(19:03):
for Caitlin who I know is you know involved in
many off Broadway productions. She is the thespian though of
the show. But Broadway musicians could strike as early as tomorrow,
so that would mean that Broadway shows would go dark.
The union representing Broadway musicians say that they will walk
off their gigs as early as tomorrow if their contract
demands are not met. Musicians say that they have been

(19:25):
working without a contract since late August and they want
a new deal with wages that accurately reflects how the
theater industry is doing in New York City. Both sides
will meet with a mediator today in hopes of coming
up with an agreement. Man, I got a trip plan
this weekend. I'm trying to see Lion King. If you're
telling me there'll be no Lion King, it is gonna
be very upsetting. I'm not going this weekend to see

(19:46):
Lion King. Hey, the I'm going this weekend to Seacats.
And yeah, I did go see as a child. I
did go Seecats. Have you seen cats?

Speaker 4 (19:56):
I have not seen cats, but my nana dragged meet
his sister act the musical.

Speaker 2 (20:00):
Oh yes, what do you mean?

Speaker 4 (20:04):
I liked the movie, but I didn't know that I
needed on Broadway.

Speaker 2 (20:08):
But I did you know.

Speaker 1 (20:11):
This Wednesday before? Excuse me? The Wednesday before Thanksgiving has
become one of door Dash's busiest days, with delivery volume
about ninety percent higher than that of an average day.
Deliveries that day include not just food, but also grocery
items like trays, flatters, mixers, and seasonings, along with some
unexpected items like outdoor chairs and dining furniture. If I'm

(20:33):
I got a door dash in a dining chair, Like,
I mean, deliveries that day don't just include food, they
also include stuff like condoms. Apparently condoms are well I mean, yeah,
I mean, I guess, but so on Thanksgiving I eat

(20:55):
all the food and then I'm like, man, I got
to get some like oh, we don't have what we
need and then aday right, well yeah, but I mean
I guess to the day before I'm horny, but not the.

Speaker 4 (21:05):
Day after your blackout for black ops Yeah black Wednesday.

Speaker 3 (21:09):
Yeah, condom, say stay safe guys out there.

Speaker 1 (21:11):
I guess up. You know.

Speaker 2 (21:16):
At the bar, Yeah you don't, haven't seen it.

Speaker 1 (21:18):
That's the hometown. The highlights, you know, meat thermometers, last
minute turkey preparations, wine and beer. That's not at all surprising.
And then condoms are are important to people, I guess.
And you used to drive door dash chase. What was

(21:38):
one of what I mean, you have a lot of
stories I know of things that you've delivered, but like,
what what is when that comes to mind of something
crazy that you had to bring to somebody.

Speaker 8 (21:46):
Probably multiple times where I had to go buy a
pregnancy test and like it's like one of those.

Speaker 2 (21:51):
That you have to shop for it.

Speaker 1 (21:52):
So I'd have to go.

Speaker 8 (21:53):
Find it in the aisle go and like check out
at the at the register and then like I'd be
like I never thought that me, being a thirty something
year old gay man would be buying this money pregnancy toss,
but here I am.

Speaker 2 (22:06):
Or the plan B that you had to need the
money B Yes, I had to.

Speaker 8 (22:09):
Yeah, I had to do that, and like the drop
off was like very sort of sketchy. They're like they're
like leave it under the third rock from the door,
and like it was very odd. But then I used
to like they always want you to work the Wednesday
before Thanksgiving because it's so busy, so they send you
all these like deals or whatever, you know, extra pay.
But I would have to like shop for everyone's Thanksgiving

(22:30):
like meal like everything, and it was very annoying because
everyone is shopping right then too, you know.

Speaker 1 (22:37):
Oh yeah, I picked up emorying through the text. I
picked up a door that as you order for lube
once and the guy made me hand it to him.
What's wad? Yeah, that would be one. I'd say leave
at the door, yeah yeah, and then I'd make sure
they left before I went out and nothing. I'd be
embarrassed about. But I don't need a stranger. I don't
need you to look me in the eye when you
hand me, you know, by accessories or whatever.

Speaker 4 (22:58):
My dad insists on having them handed to him and
talking to them forever like he I'm like, Dad, you're
crazy for that.

Speaker 1 (23:06):
Yeah, yeah, I guess I was at I need a
meat thermometer, and I need I need condoms, just one.
I need a condom, and then I need condoms. I
don't know, it's just it's a strange list of things.
Sea otters are trending today. Sea howters they're harassing surfers
in California. Again. I guess this is a normal thing,

(23:28):
but mischievous sea otters are causing more trouble for surfers
in Santa Cruz, California last week. In Order reportedly bit
a surfer's foot before taking over her surfboard. Harbor patrol
officers found the orders still perch on the board about
twenty minutes later, so I guess the thing was surfing.
Other surfers are reporting similar incidents this week, but still
support the mammals. The incident is reminiscent of the twenty

(23:49):
twenty threes otter eight forty one which is a tagged
order known for stealing surfboards in the same area authorities
if not confirmed, if it's one of the same animals,
but they're like, get out of my house, man, Like
get out of my house, you know, like you're skateboarding
on the water in my house, and I get out
and it's mine. I'm taking that. I mean, imagine if

(24:09):
someone just came rollerblade into the middle of your house,
you know, you'd probably rip the rollerblades right off of them,
kick them out, you know. So I don't know if
I blame the sea owners. And Mattel is going to
release a Stevie Nicks Belladonna barbie. Since Mattel released a
barbie I guess previously inspired by Stevie Nicks and it's
sold out, the company is now set to release a
new one. This time it's based on the album cover

(24:31):
of the singer's first solo album, Bella Donna. The album
features hits like Edge of seventeen, stop Dragging My Heart around.
The doll is draped in flowing white. Nix tells people
that she's thrilled and it's the only good thing since
breaking her shoulder, which I guess happened Recently, Mattel has
yet to announce a release date and pricing information on
the new Barbie, but the singer's first signature Barbie Doll,

(24:52):
which was inspired by Fleetwood Mac's Rumors album, quickly sold
out after its twenty twenty three release. It wouldn't it
be too much for me to say that I think
Stevie Nicks is one of the few artists that seems
to transcend every single living generation. Like I know people
who are like I've met people who have teenagers who
say they love Stevie Nicks, and their parents love Stevie Nicks.

(25:12):
The grandparents love Steven like I feel like it. She
seems to be one of those artists that like fits
into every category for someone.

Speaker 2 (25:18):
It's so true.

Speaker 4 (25:19):
My whole family is going next week to see her.
I'm so excited. I've never seen her, and my sister,
who's twenty one, is obsessed. I'm obsessed, and then my
parents are as well. So I think she's the only
one that we can all agree on.

Speaker 1 (25:31):
That's like, I don't know if it's it's just a
musical like a like a style that seems to just
fit into Like if you like country music, you like
Stevie Nicks. If you like pop music, you like Stevie Nicks,
if you like rocky I mean, you know what I mean.
It seems to be I don't know if it's your
voice or the nature of the songs or heard aura
or whatever.

Speaker 7 (25:47):
I don't know, but Janior Karen is obsessed. So yeah,
get her at this doll.

Speaker 4 (25:52):
Yep, she has the other one I asked her about
in the og but yeah, we gotta get it.

Speaker 1 (25:56):
The other one, Paulina wakes is her personal wake up
call every morning. So you need to find her this
doll falling it. You're responsible.

Speaker 5 (26:01):
I'm already googling this Christmas present.

Speaker 1 (26:06):
What You're gonna have to wait and line outside of
Target like with the Swifties. And you're gonna have to
get this doll for Karen because she deserves it. It's
National Tavern Style Pizza Day. There's a day for the thing.
There's a day for the thing that people argue isn't
even a real thing.

Speaker 6 (26:20):
Don't argue with me, Please argue with your mom because
this one, this is my day.

Speaker 2 (26:23):
I love.

Speaker 3 (26:25):
Happy Tavern Style Day. Do you thank you?

Speaker 1 (26:27):
And if you're not familiar, you know there's a debate
about the different styles of pizza. Some people will tell
you there's no such thing as tavern style, that it's
called thin cruster. I mean, there's this whole thing, but
I believe, like, for example, for the folks who listen
to Chicago, Uh, this is the debate. You've got deep dish,
which everyone seems to know about, which is a casse role.
And then you've got you know, a thinner crust which

(26:48):
is typically cut into squares, which is not the same
kind of thin crust that like might be I don't know,
like a levage or a cracker. It's also not a
slice like a New York style. It's different. It's a
little it isn't necessarily crispy on the bottom, but it's
like sometimes a little tougher or a little harder. But
it's not a cracker. But it's tavern style, and it's

(27:10):
it's different than the others. And there's been arguments among
chicagoan specifically, because there seems to be only two choices
for the most part, about whether it's called and some
people was like, well, it's just pizza. No, it's called
tavern style.

Speaker 6 (27:24):
So growing up to my stepdad used to take us
to the tavern because at that time that was like
a thing and he would bring or he would bring
us there and they would bring out the pizza.

Speaker 2 (27:31):
And that's why I thought it.

Speaker 6 (27:32):
Was called tavern style because it came from the back
of like a little bar. But now, growing up, I
know that everyone got to experience this, you know, like
very flat breaded pizza with a lot of cheese and
whatever else you want on it.

Speaker 1 (27:44):
That might be true, though, There may be some truth
to your logic that you know, even though you're you know,
alcoholic parents, is your recollection is being in a bar
and eating pizza, and that was what the kind that
it was. I mean, there might actually be some truth
to that. Done.

Speaker 5 (28:01):
Fun fact too, my stepdad went to high school with
Jason Brown's dad.

Speaker 2 (28:04):
Yes, it's a crazy story.

Speaker 6 (28:06):
Yeah, really you're apart, Yes, think of that crazy.

Speaker 1 (28:14):
Well, there you go. The name tavern style comes from
how the pizzas were originally served in taverns. According to
at least one origin story, the pizza attempted customers into
lingering at the establishment, at which point they'd be more
likely to order more alcohol. Other bars might serve peanuts
or whatever. I guess. Look, if I go to a
bar and instead of peanuts, they're serving pizza. I'm going

(28:34):
to that bar more. Yes, so maybe that's the thing.
And I mean like free, you know, because the little
peanuts are free. I mean I'm talking like, instead of
a little little bowld peanuts, if you give me an
actual pizza when I sit down, Yeah, you're right, I'm
gonna hang out there a lot more often. According to
one narrative, the pizza signature square slices were created so
that a customer could hold that in one hand and
a beer in the other. Another theory is that they

(28:56):
made it possible for taverns with that plate. So I
guess you could set the pizza on a napkin because
the napkins square, the slice is square, and then that
makes sense. I'm not sure if that's true, but yeah,
supposedly it was started in the thirties and forties in
Milwaukee and Chicago, tavern style. So if you argue that
there is no such thing, there's a whole Wikipedia page

(29:17):
about it, and I trust it. It's National Make a
Dog's Day? Do that Make Your Dog's Day? And Medical
Sister Recognition Day and one of our favorites around here
National Nut Day is we Love National Nut Day Entertainment
report is On The Fresh.

Speaker 4 (29:33):
Show, singer Janelle Monet says they time traveled back to
the seventies to see David Bowie, who died in twenty sixteen,
in concert during his prime. So during a conversation with
singer Jason's going, okay, got it. See Duck is for
Rolling Stone And I'm sure you've seen some of these

(29:54):
on social media.

Speaker 2 (29:55):
It's a bunch of like artists speaking to each other.

Speaker 4 (29:58):
They said, I traveled back to the nineteen teen seventies
and I saw him do Ziggy Start Us and the
Spiders from Mars and it was incredible. Understandably shocked by
Janelle saying they were in nineteen seventy three. Lucy said,
you traveled back and they said, yes. I was backstage
and I was like, this is what I want to do,
and so I jetted back to the two thousands.

Speaker 2 (30:19):
Girl, what O me?

Speaker 1 (30:21):
Wait? What?

Speaker 4 (30:21):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (30:22):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (30:22):
No, I I don't know what is going on here.
But this is not the first time Janelle has said
something like this. In twenty eighteen, Janelle said, I spend
a lot of time in the future, but to help
the future, sometimes you got to go back to the
past and sometimes you got to stay in the present.
I I don't know what I just said, but I

(30:46):
respect it.

Speaker 2 (30:47):
Say drugs right?

Speaker 3 (30:50):
Like do I need something to do this?

Speaker 4 (30:53):
Like?

Speaker 2 (30:53):
How do I go? And is the future?

Speaker 6 (30:55):
Like?

Speaker 4 (30:55):
Could you tell us if the future is looking good
or not? Like that's something I would love to know.
So let us know, girl, parents, be warned, don't say
it and warn you. Netflix has partnered with Mattel and
Hasbro to create a wide range of toys, games, and
collectibles based on K Pop Demon Hunters.

Speaker 2 (31:14):
And they're going to make.

Speaker 4 (31:16):
Doll dolls, action figures, play sets starting next year. Hasbro
will also produce plushies, you know those like soft toys,
electronic items, and themed Monopoly games. Netflix wants to turn
K Pop Demon Hunters into a long lasting brand, not
just a single movie, by branching into toys and games,
following the footsteps of other successful movies on how they

(31:37):
became merch powerhouses.

Speaker 2 (31:40):
So be warned.

Speaker 4 (31:41):
And if you are in Chicago or you want to
travel to Chicago for jingle Ball, we are doing something
special for Kpop Demon Hunters. If you have a little
one or you yourself like bad money is into kop Demon Hunters.
Chris Jason, This is for you, Christian Cavalaries, says the
long Await Laguna Beach reunion. It turned out to be

(32:02):
surprisingly healing for us as well.

Speaker 2 (32:04):
I think honestly.

Speaker 4 (32:05):
The reality star said that the experience was really therapeutic,
admitting that she wasn't sure she wanted to do it
at first, but now she's really glad she did. Of course,
it brought back familiar faces like her former on screen
rival Lauren Conrad. I don't know what she was wearing,
but she was wearing something in a little pants So
and Kristin said that they have finally buried the hatchet

(32:26):
after years of rumored tension.

Speaker 2 (32:27):
They broke the internet.

Speaker 4 (32:28):
They posted a photo, but I was living for all
the TikTok content, talent and Dieter and the whole crew.

Speaker 8 (32:35):
I really just want them to be like Jersey Shore
Family Vacation, where they like put a new season out,
like they go and do stuff every year, because I
think that would be really entertaining.

Speaker 4 (32:44):
When I tell you, that would heal my inner child
in the nation. We need to just keep keep going
back to the beach. Let's go back to the beginning.

Speaker 1 (32:52):
Yeah, like, why can't the Laguna Beach people do what
the Challenge people have done on MTV, you know, and
just just continue after like eighty seven seasons to just
still be on MTV, right, you know, like the guy
that was on the the guy that was on the
Road Rules, you know, in nineteen ninety eight, he's still
doing He's seventy eight years old and he's still doing challenges.

Speaker 3 (33:11):
So Cedric or Sieges, I think there are.

Speaker 1 (33:14):
Several of them actually, but yeah, I mean bananas, He's right.
These guys have made a whole career out of it,
and they're like, you know, geriatric now. But I think,
why can't we do the same thing with Laguna Beach
in the Hills. You know, let's just keep these guys
employed forever.

Speaker 3 (33:26):
It's because Kristin and Lauren don't want to do it.

Speaker 2 (33:28):
The rest of them definitely would do right forever.

Speaker 4 (33:30):
Rich already right, Stephen just got married, by the way,

Game show Wednesday New Winding metaphone five hundred and fifty

commercial free next text eight five five, five nine one
three five. I've done uber eats and about six times
I had to pick up adult toys and other items
and hand them to the person or leave them somewhere
on the porch like look, I understand that when the

(34:04):
time is right, you know, and and when the need
is there, and and when when things break down, and
you know, you gotta. But sometimes we got to impromise
the improvised guys, like we really got to get on
door Dash, like, oh boy, that thing's broken down. All
we get me another one here, stat girl, I mean
like we really can't get on Amazon. It comes tomorrow
by five, Like we really can't. We need to.

Speaker 2 (34:26):
Now that just uncovered a memory for me that I
had to do this.

Speaker 8 (34:30):
Say, I had to deliver the exact same thing, except
when I pulled in the driveway the person's dad was
out doing law work.

Speaker 2 (34:36):
It was like, oh, I'll take that for her.

Speaker 1 (34:38):
I was like, Okay, it wasn't it like it was
in a bag, right, It wasn't Eve like in a
box or something. I'm sure.

Speaker 8 (34:46):
I mean, human nature is probably to open it and
be like what's in there?

Speaker 3 (34:50):
Right?

Speaker 2 (34:50):
Oh yeah, that was not good.

Speaker 4 (34:53):
I would yeah, yeah, you would on set myself on
fire if my dad like receipt, Like I would walk
into the trap at that point.

Speaker 1 (35:01):
Yeah, I mean, no judgment, right, like you you do
what you gotta do. But it's like, really, we can't
go for the for the prime delivery, you know, four
hour delivery or something like in a box, you know,
or even maybe tomorrow or the next day, like we
got to have it. There are other ways for some
maybe not for other people. I don't know. There's no judgment,
but that's a that's a strange predicament to put your

(35:22):
delivery driver in.

Speaker 4 (35:24):
Sometimes you just need fuzzy handcuffs though, you know, okay,
well now hold.

Speaker 1 (35:28):
