Speaker 1 (00:00):
Show, Good Morning. A couple of things from before we
get to trending stories. Laura texted eight five five five
nine one one three five. The true question is is
Brandy the Bartender really her name? Unlikely? I'm gonna go
with no. I'm gonna go with that side. She was
so secretive about, you know, any kind of information that
might identify her. I think it's a made up name.
Speaker 2 (00:19):
Caitlin probably, Yeah, but then why would she make that
up when drunk dudes sing that Brandy song to her
all the time.
Speaker 1 (00:25):
Yeah, it's a good point, Like, definitely come up with
a name that doesn't have an annoying song attached to it, right, Like,
what is it like? You wouldn't want to pick like Mickey,
you know, as your fake bar tame everyone be Hey, Mickey,
here's the name. You know what I mean?
Speaker 3 (00:40):
Man?
Speaker 1 (00:40):
Yeah. We were also talking off the air just now
about the Brazilian steakhouse that I attended yesterday. It was
a lunch thing, which I thought was aggressive. Brazilian steakhouse
for lunch I think is aggressive, like I mean, and
it was very very nice these people to take me
to this place. But it's like, you know when somebody says, hey,
you want to go to lunch. We can go to uh,
you know, you know the salad place over here. We
(01:01):
can go to Sweet Green, we can go to uh,
you know, we could go wherever. Or we could go
to a Brazilian steakhouse. Or they're gonna come around with
slabs of meat and just cut them off on your
plate for lunch. And that's what we did. But I
learned yesterday that depending on the Brazilian steakhouse that you
go to, you you need to ask questions because they
come around with the meat and typically in my experience
(01:24):
at these places, you know, fogodachaw, whatever it is, they
you know, it's like sirloin steak, it's beef, it's chicken,
it's pork, and so I'm not really asking questions. They'll
come around and be like and they'll say to you
what it is on the stick. If you've never been
to one of these places, they have like, you know,
meat on a stick, all different kinds, and they come
around and if you're a little in this case, it
was like a little tower that was either green or red.
(01:45):
But you know, sometimes it's like a little chip or whatever,
and if it's green, then the guys with the meat
keep coming by and they'll cut off a little piece
of it for you and you eat it or whatever.
If you've never experienced this before. So yesterday the guy's like, yeah,
parmesan on this at the other thing whatever, And he's
got his sticks and meat, and the guy goes to
put some on my plate. He goes, you want this.
I'm like I guess, yeah, whatever, And someone next to
me goes, you know, that's it, that's chicken heart. And
(02:07):
I was like, actually, no, I do not want that.
I don't want that. But I would have eaten it
because it all looks the same to me at these places,
like it's covered in parmesan or garlic or you know,
salt or something. So I would have just and you
know what, here's the moral of the story. If I
had eaten it and liked it, then what difference does
it make? But then once you told me what it was,
I'm like, oh, absolutely not. I'm not having that. No. Yeah,
(02:30):
you got to ask questions. You had to think. Was
they had like a big bowl of uh you know
how these places have the salad bar and they'll always
have like the mozzarella little balls with the tomato, the
capra se little thing, you know, and so I'm I'm,
you know, a big scoop of that or whatever. I
get back to the table realize they're quail eggs. They
were like little round things. They're tiny, you know. They
were just like it looked like mozzarella balls. I'm like,
(02:52):
this is not taste like mozarella. Well, because it was
a quail like And first of all, I thought it
was very wasteful. They got all kaids of quail, like,
just big bowls of them. I'm like, don't you understand
there's a shortage. You know, you can make a lot
of money on these. I should have stolen the bowl
and walked outside, and I should have sold the eggs
at a tremendous profit and somewhere else. This is what's trending.
But we all agree that's an aggressive lunch move.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
Yes, you got to cancel your whole day after that.
Speaker 1 (03:16):
That's why I don't thart me with a good time.
Speaker 4 (03:19):
I want to smell like garlic butter all day time.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
I need to think about that. Well, that's right, right, right,
same deal, Like, do you want to go to Benny
Hannah for lunch? Like, yes, I do I do want
to go to Betty Hatna for lunch? But I mean,
do I want to go back to work after eating
the you know, Emperor's feast or whatever, which I know
how to make. By the way, if you're ever interested, yes,
I'll have some yummyum sauce. Yes. Yeah, it's an aggressive
(03:45):
move for lunch. I think Mexican is a controversial move
for lunch, depending on what you have to do later.
You know, if it's like a work lunch and they
take you to a Mexican right, I think that's against dicey.
Speaker 5 (03:56):
Yeah. I think like there's like a lunch like you
can get and then like there's a dinner like right.
Speaker 1 (04:04):
Like maybe don't have the beans?
Speaker 5 (04:05):
Yeah, like les Kso yeah, lunch jaso at dinner.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
That's a really good point. Like if you go if
you go to lunch at a restaurant and they offer
a lunch or dinner portion, because they'll usually ask you,
you know, you'll be like, yeah, I'll have the enchiladas
or whatever. Then make okay, did you want the lunch portion?
If someone goes no, I'll have the dinner portion, like okay,
you're having a day, are you okay? Like is everything
all right at home? You know, like what's going on?
Speaker 3 (04:31):
That is totally me. I have the too much.
Speaker 5 (04:33):
I have the too much gene like eternally, Like if
anyone is like, do you want the smaller the large?
No matter who I'm with, I could be by myself,
and I always like, no, I want the large.
Speaker 3 (04:40):
Yeah you know, well, yeah, it's exactly. I don't want
to not have enough. It might not be enough, right
exactly longer you all.
Speaker 1 (04:51):
Right, because you don't want to be the person who
orders another one, you know, because it wasn't enough and
you liked it a lot, you know what I mean. Like,
let's say you get that. I don't know. Let's say
you I had a drink and there's a like I
saw you order orange juice. I think there was like
eight ounces or sixteen yeah, and Jason's like, oh, obviously sixteen.
So if they bring him like a vat, an actual
tree of oranges that they squos at the table, he
(05:14):
took him an hour and a half to make an
entire vat of orange juice with this man. But I
understand what you what you're thinking, because while it would
be wasteful to leave any behind, if it's delicious. You
don't want to be like, yeah, I'll take another of
whatever idem it is, so you may as well have
more and then decide from there.
Speaker 5 (05:32):
I needed enough orange juice for my compote that I
had that morning.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
Yeah, he ordered a French toast with a compote, So
he was pulling a me. Yeah, it was. It was
a me when people call up here and their name
is you know, John, and I go, h, I don't
mean or whatever, like because I'm trying to be I'm
trying to make sure that I represent everybody appropriately. But yeah, no,
he wanted a compote and like, you mean the compote He's.
Speaker 3 (05:58):
Yeah, I never heard that word before my life.
Speaker 1 (06:01):
Well then he asked me what it was, and I'm like,
it's it's like, you know, shoot up fruit. Basically, somebody
showed it up for you back there and now it's
all nice and smooth.
Speaker 3 (06:11):
That's good.
Speaker 1 (06:12):
Yeah, that looked good, by the way, anyway. Trending stories
this morning, NFL insiders are saying that Travis Kelce has
already made up his retirement decision and that he has
done Apparently, he cried during his speech after the game
after the Super Bowl, noting that he had also cried
though the year before, when the Chiefs had won their
second consecutive title. Several people within the organization are saying
(06:36):
that their gut is telling them that this is it.
He says he hasn't made any decisions yet. I think
he said that on the New Heights podcast. But and
the only reason this means to me, think to anybody,
is it would mean that Taylor's time on Sunday would
be over. And can you believe that, you know, one
man's retirement, while he's a Hall of Famer, future Hall
(06:57):
of Famer, one man's retirement is causing this much of
a stir And the reason is because we would see
less Taylor Swift. How do we feel about this?
Speaker 2 (07:05):
I feel like happy for her because she won't get
booed anymore for just supporting her plan.
Speaker 3 (07:11):
But yeah, I don't know. She needs to rest, like
I'm just so worried about her. But I don't know.
Speaker 5 (07:17):
But this is the only reason that I liked watching
the Chiefs games was to see when they would go
cut to her.
Speaker 3 (07:22):
So now what am I going to do?
Speaker 1 (07:23):
It wasn't because we were lying upon you for sports information,
because you're the sports reporter of the show.
Speaker 5 (07:27):
Right, You think I'm gonna give it my whole Sunday
and watch this absolute absolutely no, That's what every sports
reporter said. You want me to give up my Sunday
for the It's like it's a big game today. I
got plans. I'm not going to that game is big whatever.
Speaker 3 (07:43):
I don't believe he's done. I would bet on that
if he comes to Chicago now, that is like he.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
Wanted to end his career here here.
Speaker 1 (07:53):
So the reason I think he's done is because it
would have to be on a different team because it
would appear that either he takes a massive pay cut
or they just I don't even know if they can
do that, or they just cut him. Because I think
we talked about this yesterday. He was making way too
much money now, apparently, especially based on the way he
played this year, So he would have to go play
somewhere else. And then you have to ask yourself, well,
(08:13):
you know why, He's kind of like Aaron Rodgers. You know,
he went to the Jets and then it was its
complete disaster, and now apparently he's unemployed, and it's like, well,
you could have just you could have gone out relatively
on top and not done this because now you're sort of,
you know, chasing around trying to find a decent team
where you might win, you know what I mean. It's
not about the money. So I think if he had
won the super Bowl, he would definitely be done, Like,
(08:34):
cause how do you not if you're even considering retiring
and then you win a super Bowl, Well that's as
good as it's going to get, especially if you won
three in a row. Like that's when you go.
Speaker 3 (08:42):
Out, right, Yeah, yeah, that would make sense.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
Another day, another ozempic story, and you want to talk
about it, like, let's go, let's take a left turn
and then let's take a complete and total right turn,
and I'll tell you why. So ozempick might be an
alcohol addiction treatment. Well that's good, right, yeah.
Speaker 2 (09:01):
Yeah, yeah, they talked about this before on the news.
I think, if anything, I think it's going to give
benefits to people.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
Look, it's going to give a lot of benefits. Well
let me tell you both. I have two stories, though
their consecutive. So here we go, literally on the same day.
Ozembic might be an alcohol addiction treatment. The popular diabetes
and weight less drug might help people stop drinking. New
research shows that reduces alcohol cravings and liquor consumption. That's
what the first critical clinical trial involving GLP one drugs
(09:28):
is showing. According to researching Jamma Psychiatry, which we all
subscribe to here. In fact, we've been studied for JAMA
psychiatry a number of times. The study, involving forty eight
people with moderate alcohol use disorder demonstrated that people on
low doses of ozempic for just nine weeks strengths significantly
less than those on a placebo. You were on one
of them, p weren't you pretty openly? Yes, I am
(09:49):
on the zebound. And have you found the same thing
or is it a different drug?
Speaker 4 (09:53):
No?
Speaker 2 (09:53):
I found the same thing to to be honest, Like,
it doesn't make you crave a lot of things anymore.
We talked about this before, like the food or if
you don't have which McCaulay, like, I get coffee, it
actually makes it taste different, which isn't great from excel
love coffee, but it makes everything taste a little bit different.
And then the alcohol. Yeah, you don't even you don't
even miss it. It's so weird.
Speaker 1 (10:10):
Wow. Okay, well there's that which is wonderful. If it's true,
you know, in treating the thirty million Americans with alcohol
use disorder. However, the second story is ozembic causes blindness.
So there's that oas to see. Oh you know, so
it's like, hey, alcohol, let's treat that. Hey, you know,
my vision is not as good anymore, I guess. A
(10:30):
new study highlights vision problems in patients taking semaglutide and trizeppatide,
popular drugs for type two diabetes and obesity. This is
only nine patients, but they experience serious eye complications, including
seven cases of a condition where reduced blood flow to
the optic nerve leads to vision laws, one case of
swelling of the optic nerve, and another one affecting the retina.
(10:52):
The study does not prove these drugs are the direct cause.
The findings raised concerns, though, that rapid movements in blood
sugar levels might be linked to these visual issues. So
you know, alcohol treatment, cool, weight laws, great diabetes, cool,
let's treat that too. I may not get to see
as well, though, but I might be snatched. So which
(11:13):
one are we? Which? Which one are we more concerned with?
Speaker 4 (11:16):
As long as you can see me, look like okay, good,
looking good, all right up there?
Speaker 1 (11:21):
Enough what waste? Yes, as long as you can see,
as long as you can see how good I look
because of it, exactly, and that's all we need. We've
talked about eggs every single day this week, and I
think last week too. But a California farm has donated
over three hundred thousand eggs to wildfire victims and first
responders in la which I think is a very sweet thing.
(11:43):
Of course, this leads to a few questions, but I'll
leave that to you. Nonetheless, very nice thing. They have
two hundred and seventy eggs, two hundred thousand eggs rather,
and they're giving them to a whole bunch of different folks,
people who lost their homes and the eating and Palas
eight fires, and additional fifty five thousand eggs are being
provided the firefighters and other first responders. Some will be
(12:03):
used in a bakery that's making cakes for displaced children.
Several grocery chains have limited the purchase of eggs due
to ongoing shortages brought on by the millions of chickens
that are experiencing bird flu. I guess, but anyway, that's
a nice thing that they're doing with all these extra eggs.
The Idaho Potato Commission is attempting, which is a thing,
is attempting to make the state's favorite starch into a
(12:26):
tasty fixture in the fashion world. Nine percent of Americans
find the taste of a fresh Idaho potato French fry irresistible,
which is why they have created the Kiss of French,
which is a lipstick that tastes like French fries. The
announcement comes just in time for Valentine's Day and they
claim the new lip bomb we'll bridge the gap between
hunger and desire. Oh wow, okay, idahop potato dot com.
(12:51):
If you want to get this lipstick for free while
supplies last. You have to pay the shipping and handling,
But there you go. I would be like, hmm, did
you eat KFC for lun Sure? Is that the Idaho
potato lipstick that you're wearing? Like if I kiss you
and you taste like food, I don't know. We don't
need this. We don't need this. No, no, no, okay,
(13:12):
all right, fine, no, we'll cancel it, call them stop,
tell them the top it's over, And then a couple
of Valentine's stories. Here the San Antonio Zoo will name
a cockroach, rodents, or vegetable after your ex, and then
they will feed it to animals in exchange for a donation.
And I guess you can get more on this San
Antonio Zoo website. Also, for a fifteen dollars donation, the
Columbus Zoo and Aquarium will let you name a super
(13:33):
worm after an ex that will then end up as
lunch for the zoo's sloth bears. So there, now, if
you did it. We may have discussed this before, but
if you do something like this and your ex and
you like send it to your ex and your X
finds out that you did it, aren't you saying more
about you than them? Yes?
Speaker 4 (13:51):
Yeah, you know like this much time? Right, Like, why
are you still thinking about me this much? Just give
the donation to the zoo. You don't need to go through, right, yeah,
Like how long did it take for you to find
this thing?
Speaker 1 (14:03):
And then go to the website and then fill it
out and watch the video of you know, there's some
animal eating an animal named after me? I think I
would be honored. Actually, I think, wow, I am truly
living rent free in your head? Right is what I
would think Today's Gallentine's Day, which I guess means that
the girls are supposed to celebrate with each other.
Speaker 3 (14:23):
The girls and the gangs are right here.
Speaker 1 (14:28):
It's National Giving Heart Stay donate to your favorite charity,
and National Tortillini Day today as well, which I love
a tortalleini I do. I am a tort Laini lover.
I will admit that right now, I just came out
a jeep down inside. Have been hiding the secret for
a long time, but it's time for me to come
out and tell everybody. The entertainment reporting blogs both next
(14:50):
waiting by the phones, coming up to you. It's the
French

second consecutive title. Several people within the organization are saying
(06:36):
that their gut is telling them that this is it.
He says he hasn't made any decisions yet. I think
he said that on the New Heights podcast. But and
the only reason this means to me, think to anybody,
is it would mean that Taylor's time on Sunday would
be over. And can you believe that, you know, one
man's retirement, while he's a Hall of Famer, future Hall
(06:57):
of Famer, one man's retirement is causing this much of
a stir And the reason is because we would see
less Taylor Swift. How do we feel about this?
Speaker 2 (07:05):
I feel like happy for her because she won't get
booed anymore for just supporting her plan.
Speaker 3 (07:11):
But yeah, I don't know. She needs to rest, like
I'm just so worried about her. But I don't know.
Speaker 5 (07:17):
But this is the only reason that I liked watching
the Chiefs games was to see when they would go
cut to her.
Speaker 3 (07:22):
So now what am I going to do?
Speaker 1 (07:23):
It wasn't because we were lying upon you for sports information,
because you're the sports reporter of the show.
Speaker 5 (07:27):
Right, You think I'm gonna give it my whole Sunday
and watch this absolute absolutely no, That's what every sports
reporter said. You want me to give up my Sunday
for the It's like it's a big game today. I
got plans. I'm not going to that game is big whatever.
Speaker 3 (07:43):
I don't believe he's done. I would bet on that
if he comes to Chicago now, that is like he.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
Wanted to end his career here here.
Speaker 1 (07:53):
So the reason I think he's done is because it
would have to be on a different team because it
would appear that either he takes a massive pay cut
or they just I don't even know if they can
do that, or they just cut him. Because I think
we talked about this yesterday. He was making way too
much money now, apparently, especially based on the way he
played this year, So he would have to go play
somewhere else. And then you have to ask yourself, well,
(08:13):
you know why, He's kind of like Aaron Rodgers. You know,
he went to the Jets and then it was its
complete disaster, and now apparently he's unemployed, and it's like, well,
you could have just you could have gone out relatively
on top and not done this because now you're sort of,
you know, chasing around trying to find a decent team
where you might win, you know what I mean. It's
not about the money. So I think if he had
won the super Bowl, he would definitely be done, Like,
(08:34):
cause how do you not if you're even considering retiring
and then you win a super Bowl, Well that's as
good as it's going to get, especially if you won
three in a row. Like that's when you go.
Speaker 3 (08:42):
Out, right, Yeah, yeah, that would make sense.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
Another day, another ozempic story, and you want to talk
about it, like, let's go, let's take a left turn
and then let's take a complete and total right turn,
and I'll tell you why. So ozempick might be an
alcohol addiction treatment. Well that's good, right, yeah.
Speaker 2 (09:01):
Yeah, yeah, they talked about this before on the news.
I think, if anything, I think it's going to give
benefits to people.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
Look, it's going to give a lot of benefits. Well
let me tell you both. I have two stories, though
their consecutive. So here we go, literally on the same day.
Ozembic might be an alcohol addiction treatment. The popular diabetes
and weight less drug might help people stop drinking. New
research shows that reduces alcohol cravings and liquor consumption. That's
what the first critical clinical trial involving GLP one drugs
(09:28):
is showing. According to researching Jamma Psychiatry, which we all
subscribe to here. In fact, we've been studied for JAMA
psychiatry a number of times. The study, involving forty eight
people with moderate alcohol use disorder demonstrated that people on
low doses of ozempic for just nine weeks strengths significantly
less than those on a placebo. You were on one
of them, p weren't you pretty openly? Yes, I am
(09:49):
on the zebound. And have you found the same thing
or is it a different drug?
Speaker 4 (09:53):
No?
Speaker 2 (09:53):
I found the same thing to to be honest, Like,
it doesn't make you crave a lot of things anymore.
We talked about this before, like the food or if
you don't have which McCaulay, like, I get coffee, it
actually makes it taste different, which isn't great from excel
love coffee, but it makes everything taste a little bit different.
And then the alcohol. Yeah, you don't even you don't
even miss it. It's so weird.
Speaker 1 (10:10):
Wow. Okay, well there's that which is wonderful. If it's true,
you know, in treating the thirty million Americans with alcohol
use disorder. However, the second story is ozembic causes blindness.
So there's that oas to see. Oh you know, so
it's like, hey, alcohol, let's treat that. Hey, you know,
my vision is not as good anymore, I guess. A
(10:30):
new study highlights vision problems in patients taking semaglutide and trizeppatide,
popular drugs for type two diabetes and obesity. This is
only nine patients, but they experience serious eye complications, including
seven cases of a condition where reduced blood flow to
the optic nerve leads to vision laws, one case of
swelling of the optic nerve, and another one affecting the retina.
(10:52):
The study does not prove these drugs are the direct cause.
The findings raised concerns, though, that rapid movements in blood
sugar levels might be linked to these visual issues. So
you know, alcohol treatment, cool, weight laws, great diabetes, cool,
let's treat that too. I may not get to see
as well, though, but I might be snatched. So which
(11:13):
one are we? Which? Which one are we more concerned with?
Speaker 4 (11:16):
As long as you can see me, look like okay, good,
looking good, all right up there?
Speaker 1 (11:21):
Enough what waste? Yes, as long as you can see,
as long as you can see how good I look
because of it, exactly, and that's all we need. We've
talked about eggs every single day this week, and I
think last week too. But a California farm has donated
over three hundred thousand eggs to wildfire victims and first
responders in la which I think is a very sweet thing.
(11:43):
Of course, this leads to a few questions, but I'll
leave that to you. Nonetheless, very nice thing. They have
two hundred and seventy eggs, two hundred thousand eggs rather,
and they're giving them to a whole bunch of different folks,
people who lost their homes and the eating and Palas
eight fires, and additional fifty five thousand eggs are being
provided the firefighters and other first responders. Some will be
(12:03):
used in a bakery that's making cakes for displaced children.
Several grocery chains have limited the purchase of eggs due
to ongoing shortages brought on by the millions of chickens
that are experiencing bird flu. I guess, but anyway, that's
a nice thing that they're doing with all these extra eggs.
The Idaho Potato Commission is attempting, which is a thing,
is attempting to make the state's favorite starch into a
(12:26):
tasty fixture in the fashion world. Nine percent of Americans
find the taste of a fresh Idaho potato French fry irresistible,
which is why they have created the Kiss of French,
which is a lipstick that tastes like French fries. The
announcement comes just in time for Valentine's Day and they
claim the new lip bomb we'll bridge the gap between
hunger and desire. Oh wow, okay, idahop potato dot com.
(12:51):
If you want to get this lipstick for free while
supplies last. You have to pay the shipping and handling,
But there you go. I would be like, hmm, did
you eat KFC for lun Sure? Is that the Idaho
potato lipstick that you're wearing? Like if I kiss you
and you taste like food, I don't know. We don't
need this. We don't need this. No, no, no, okay,
(13:12):
all right, fine, no, we'll cancel it, call them stop,
tell them the top it's over, And then a couple
of Valentine's stories. Here the San Antonio Zoo will name
a cockroach, rodents, or vegetable after your ex, and then
they will feed it to animals in exchange for a donation.
And I guess you can get more on this San
Antonio Zoo website. Also, for a fifteen dollars donation, the
Columbus Zoo and Aquarium will let you name a super
(13:33):
worm after an ex that will then end up as
lunch for the zoo's sloth bears. So there, now, if
you did it. We may have discussed this before, but
if you do something like this and your ex and
you like send it to your ex and your X
finds out that you did it, aren't you saying more
about you than them? Yes?
Speaker 4 (13:51):
Yeah, you know like this much time? Right, Like, why
are you still thinking about me this much? Just give
the donation to the zoo. You don't need to go through, right, yeah,
Like how long did it take for you to find
this thing?
Speaker 1 (14:03):
And then go to the website and then fill it
out and watch the video of you know, there's some
animal eating an animal named after me? I think I
would be honored. Actually, I think, wow, I am truly
living rent free in your head? Right is what I
would think Today's Gallentine's Day, which I guess means that
the girls are supposed to celebrate with each other.
Speaker 3 (14:23):
The girls and the gangs are right here.
Speaker 1 (14:28):
It's National Giving Heart Stay donate to your favorite charity,
and National Tortillini Day today as well, which I love
a tortalleini I do. I am a tort Laini lover.
I will admit that right now, I just came out
a jeep down inside. Have been hiding the secret for
a long time, but it's time for me to come
out and tell everybody. The entertainment reporting blogs both next
(14:50):
waiting by the phones, coming up to you. It's the
