Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's the Fresh Show. This is what's trending.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
Oh my gosh, there's so much going on today. You guys,
we may be here for a minute. The one thing
that we can't do, but we'll just do it like
we did last week. Jason Brown unavailable. I texted him.
I guess he's not available to give us his sports pick.
So oh yeah, Oh, you degenerate gamblers out there. I
don't know what you're gonna do. You're on your own.
Speaker 1 (00:19):
Man, let's go wait a man, you know what for fun?
Speaker 3 (00:24):
Because work that you want me to do now, well.
Speaker 2 (00:29):
I want you to not betray me the way that
your body is to trade you. Okay, So you know,
when I think about sports on our show, obviously the
first name that comes to mind is Jason Brown.
Speaker 1 (00:39):
Obviously, I mean that's that's obvious.
Speaker 2 (00:42):
But when the next person, and it's very close when
it comes to sports expertise, is mkeitha. And so you
know what, just for fun, let's take a stab at
this and let's let's see who reigns supreme. You know,
Jason's title might be up for grabs.
Speaker 1 (01:00):
I could never All right, well, here's.
Speaker 2 (01:02):
The game that already took place let's see how this goes.
And I know I think you'll choose correctly for political reasons.
But the Lions and the Packers, Oh the Lions, and
they won on a field goal one thirty four to
thirty one. They are on fire. I'm not going to
say it, but I'm I'm extremely optimistic about what says
where things are. No, I'm not, because then then if
(01:23):
it doesn't happen came, it will be like you jinks
me now that the team hasn't already been jinxed like historically.
Speaker 1 (01:28):
Oh so we are plagued with injuries. But I love
beating the Packers. I am, I am. I'm on a
high today. I'm so happy that one. Yeah, thank you.
Speaker 4 (01:37):
I was in a group chat with some Packers fans
here and I was just so no, no, I couldn't
disrespect Jason's momd like that.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
But oh my huh. Maybe yes, a group chat with
Packer fans. Yeah, yep. We got a couple in the office.
They make me sick. Yeah, we do. We do know
what you know what? And then I know who they are.
It's surprising.
Speaker 2 (01:59):
It's funny how I can tell you don't even have
you wouldn't even have to reference a group chat. You
could just say Packer fans at the office. I know
exactly which one they are.
Speaker 1 (02:08):
There's they're few, but yeah they're here.
Speaker 2 (02:10):
Well they're and they're awfully proud, aren't they. Okay, Kiki,
here we go Week fourteen in the NFL. The Browns
and the Steelers. We're gonna go with the Browns. Okay, uh,
we're already not doing well.
Speaker 3 (02:23):
The Saints are the Giants, Saints Giants, Saints Giants.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
We're gonna go with the Giants, okay.
Speaker 2 (02:30):
And the Giants of New York. Yes, yes, okay, maybe
there is something to this. Jets and the Dolphins.
Speaker 1 (02:39):
Jets and the Dolphins. I like Dolphins, The Jaguars and
the Titans. Oh, the Titans, the Falcons and the Vikings.
Oh oh oh.
Speaker 3 (02:47):
Jason always says that, man I thought, Ike, yeah, Jason says, yeah, nobody.
Speaker 1 (02:53):
Else is your answers.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
And the Eagles, Let's do the Eagles. Pro will be
a good pickure the Raiders and the Buccaneers. You know,
let's do the Buccaneers. Why, I mean, come on, shout out, Tom.
Speaker 1 (03:08):
Right, I mean Seahawks and the Cardinals. Oh, I like
the Seahawks.
Speaker 2 (03:17):
You like the Seahawks, and the Cardinals of course are
from Saint Louis. Well the baseball team is originally Yeah, sure,
why not the Bears in the forty nine ers?
Speaker 1 (03:28):
Oh, chah, the forty nine ers.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
Sorry, wow, you're going with Bellahamine intern Bellahamine her love
over the city where you live?
Speaker 3 (03:37):
Yes, because the Bears are in their healing era, so
they can't you know, they got a chill.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
Well, you know, my theory is that they should just
give up.
Speaker 3 (03:45):
Just right, right, I just take the rest off.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
I mean, it's really cold. Fans don't really want to
go when it's you know, twelve degrees and negative of
the four thousand Winds show. So just let's just you
can have you can hold the competition if you want.
But I don't know, maybe we just let a fan
be the quarterback or something for a week, right, I mean,
at this point, let's just let's just make it good
for the people who have been tortured and who have
paid lots of money to go to these games.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
I mean, because who cares.
Speaker 2 (04:11):
They get a good pick and then we move on,
and you coach, move on the Bills and the Rams.
I like the Rams, all right, Chargers and the Chiefs.
Speaker 3 (04:22):
Oh, the chiefs and the and the cowboys O the cowboys.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
Yes, we'll see how you do. Imagine imagine how this goes.
I mean, she does.
Speaker 3 (04:35):
I think it's gonna go great. Bet on it, bet
on it. Put your money up, put your house on it. No, no, no, no,
there's a number for that.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
Please please do not do that. Draft please does not advise.
Speaker 2 (04:48):
There's a whole message on draft weeds when ago that says,
you know, if you have a problem, Yeah, right, call
this number.
Speaker 1 (04:54):
Have you guys.
Speaker 2 (04:55):
I don't want to get too too much into it.
I know the kids listening, and it's have you seen
this story about the CEO of United Healthcare?
Speaker 1 (05:03):
Oh in New York?
Speaker 2 (05:06):
Yeah, I mean, there's kind of no way to avoid it,
and there's no way I have to talk about it.
But I was reading last night. I am amazing this
happened maybe what forty eight hours ago? It happened Thursday
morning or no, Wednesday morning? Was it Wednesday morning? In
New York? It's Friday morning. And the amount of information
that the police have amassed is incredible, and apparently this
(05:28):
dude fumbled. I guess this guy fumbled all over the place.
They've got his DNA, they've got a picture of his
face because he was flirting with somebody at the hostel.
They've got they've got all kinds of stuff. Yeah, whoa,
But this story is absolutely wild and I I mean again,
there was the CEO of this healthcare company. Was he
(05:49):
was killed in front of a hotel in New York
on I believe it was Wednesday morning, and the manhunt
extends into a third day for the person accused of
doing this, and it was they're saying it was a
targeted attack. They're saying the shellcasings on the bullets that
were used had writing on it, Oh my gosh, referencing
people's disdain for the healthcare industry. So there's no word
(06:10):
if that means that that's the reason they went after
this guy because it was a disgruntled person over something
regarding healthcare, or if it was something else. They don't
really know, or at least they're not saying. The NYPD
has released photos of a person of interest smiling during
a flirtatious moment with a female employee at a hustle
in New York's Upper West Side. They've yielded what so
far as the most significant clue to identifying him in
(06:33):
that picture. They say that the man traveled by Greyhound
bust in New York ten days before the shooting and
used a fake New Jersey driver's license to check in
at the hotel. So this whole thing was planned orchestrated,
and it makes you wonder, like, who disliked this guy
so much that you went to this much of a calculator,
you know, this kind of calculated effort to do it.
Speaker 4 (06:53):
Yeah, I think he was either about to snitch on
some people, or it was someone who was like sick
and upset about healthcare and had like nothing to lose,
because you if you don't want to get caught, you
don't put things on the bullets, you don't, you know
what I mean?
Speaker 1 (07:05):
Like you're trying to send a message, And.
Speaker 2 (07:07):
I agree with you, except if this were just somebody
who has pissed you know that. Almost again, I'm not
like a crime expert. I do watch a lot of I.
Speaker 4 (07:14):
Am, Well, I'm on John Bennese's case right now, but
the one on that later. Yeah, but and every podcast
ever imagined. I'm really deep in it. Okay, Yeah, I
have one of those things on my wall with like
the red.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
Taste the street all you doing with little connecting the dots,
yeah shots, and you're yeah, oh I got it. You're
going to crack the case. And no one's been able
to do it in like thirty years, but you're going
to do it.
Speaker 1 (07:35):
I am yeah.
Speaker 2 (07:36):
But I mean this is like the dude came ten
days before. The guy had a fake idea. This guy's
a pro. Except he's a pro except drank out of
a water bottle of Starbucks threw it away. They got it,
so you know he's a pro, except they're able to
track the bike. I guess he's a pro except they
get a picture of his face. I don't know so,
but it just it seemed like for you to go
in and ten days early and camp out and know
(07:58):
exactly where he was going to be at that exact time,
and have the silence gun and the whole thing, that
just seems like somebody really thought about this.
Speaker 1 (08:06):
Silencers.
Speaker 4 (08:07):
I didn't know those were That sounds like something from
a movie that you could silence a gun.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
Well, of course I could have mentioned why.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
I mean, this is crazy, Yeah, no, it's an insane
story and It's obviously very tragic, but you know, the why,
why did it happen? And then of course now tracking
all the evidence and you know, whether this guy fumbled
or not is crazy. But but yeah, it's it's very scary.
And and you know, I was right there for a
(08:36):
business meeting like two weeks ago, and not to say
that it had anything to do with me, or that
I would have anyone would have been hurt. But thank god,
thank god, no one saw it happen, because you know
what if somebody had been standing right there who was
staying at one of the hotels in the area. There's
a bar right there. Our radio stations in New York
are right there. You know what if somebody walking to
work had witnessed this and now they're a witness and
they have nothing to do with it. But maybe this
(08:57):
guy thinks, so I got to take them out.
Speaker 1 (08:58):
I don't. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (08:59):
It's really scary and and and so we'll see what happened.
But they may catch this guy over a Starbucks water
bottle and flirting with a lady at the hostel.
Speaker 3 (09:09):
Yeah, his face is so clear, and those photos, I mean,
like really clear, although to like I don't know our
generation or what.
Speaker 1 (09:15):
But like, have you seen the memes behind these? Like
it's getting a little crazy. I'm like, God, I can't
flow down. Let me tell you.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
I mean we knew this, but if you look at
the comments of this new story, I mean, a man
died and and I know he was an insurance guy,
and but it just goes to prove the disdain that
exists out there for the insurance company because all the
comments are you know, talking about Oh I don't know
is are those are those gunshots going to be covered
by my deductible or I mean it's it's bad. Like
if you go look at people hate the insurance companies
(09:47):
and it's yeah, and you'll see it in these comments.
A Saudi royal has reportedly offered Mike Tyson seven hundred
million dollars if he will take on Jake Paul in
a rematch. So last month, Iron Mike was beaten a
YouTuber Jake Jake Paul. Yeah, I get.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
All the Paul's confused, it doesn't matter. So he lost.
Speaker 2 (10:05):
Now this guy, Saudi Arabia's General Entertainment Authority, he's ahead
of it, apparently, has offered Mike Tyson seven hundred million
dollars if he will convincingly beat Paul the second time
around with a knockout win within three minutes. I mean, obviously,
if that's true, obviously that's happening, because who would not.
(10:26):
I will, that's the number. Yes, I will fight Mike Tyson. Yeah,
agree to it. That's the problem. He's not gonna agree
to that. Seven hundred How much is Jake Paul getting though?
Speaker 1 (10:37):
I don't know. Let I knock you out and get
in there. Times are tough.
Speaker 2 (10:45):
I mean, I still think that if Mike were healthier
even in that fight, even at his age, and if
the rules had been different, like if Mike had really
been able to fight, if they were really fighting, which
they clearly were not. If you watch it, you know,
like clips they've been showing and punches that were pulled
in the it. I still think Mike wins, Oh yeah,
for sure. And I don't think he'll do it because
who wouldn't for seven hundred million dollars if that's true? Guys.
(11:07):
Mocha Moose, Moose. Mocha Moose, not a porn star. That
is the Pantone color of the year. The color is
comforting and evocative of such treats as coffee or chocolate.
They handed the hue to the lineup of Razor phones
from Motorola. The twenty twenty four color was Peach Fuzz
and Viva Magenta was twenty twenty three Mocha Moose. You guys,
(11:33):
snack wraps are back, Caitlin, there it is. Oh my God,
God is good. Thank you Jesus. I've got every trending
is all. What's trendings have to have food stories, especially
best food stories, as long as I can help it,
and they're coming back in twenty twenty five. It's been
confirmed by the McDonald's folks. There are a few items
that McDonald's fans will patiently await between their occasional returns.
(11:55):
Of course to McRib I have a story about that.
The Holiday Pie is another one. But then you'll be back.
There are versions internationally you can still find. But it's chicken,
lettuce and cheese wrapped in a warm tortilla. They launched
in two thousand and six and they were dropped in
twenty thirteen, and there have been tons of complaints since
(12:16):
then about where this thing went and camelin It's back. Congratulations.
Speaker 4 (12:19):
I made all those complaints but if you'll remember the
last time Sweetie was at our jingle ball, she was
working with McDonald's. I asked her to help, you know,
get this back, so I got to tell her at
jingle ball. I think we did it, girl, finally, but
it better be the same. Like Rufio pointed out, I'm
not messing with any you know, different ingredients.
Speaker 1 (12:35):
It's got to be the lettuce, the cheese, the same.
Speaker 2 (12:38):
You know how I feel about the og. You know,
when you love something and the original, you just don't
go messing with it. I don't want like a Chipotle
honey barbecue. I don't want it. Well you watch you
pull a honey barbecue. They go, get yourself some sauce.
Pour that on for you. But what I need you
to deliver from me McDonald's is the snack wrap as
I know it.
Speaker 4 (12:55):
Yes, Kalin, when you love something, let it go and
if it comes back to you, it means it was
meant to be. And I'm finally going to be back
with my snack.
Speaker 1 (13:03):
But hopefully they don't like you, you know, like one
day on you know say like no, I don't need
that just right, just put it on the menu and
let the people have it.
Speaker 2 (13:12):
Yea, on to your point, I let him go and
then they go get married to somebody else. Oh damn,
well that's if they're not already married to somebody else.
Sometimes they do come back stuff, right, right, Yeah they are.
They always come They always come back. Yeah. I don't
know that the or if I'm just a tortured person
(13:34):
or I don't really know. And and also in McDonald's
news today, this is shocking. I mean this, this, this
shook me at the core, guys, but McDonald's fans are
shocked to learn that the McRib doesn't actually contain any
rib meat? What what?
Speaker 1 (13:53):
Or moons?
Speaker 2 (13:54):
What are you telling me now that that thing that
looks like a with bones in it but doesn't have bones,
Are you trying to tell me that's that's processed informed meat.
Are you suggesting that there's not a pitmaster in the
back of every McDonald's making some rooms taking the bones
out in the green d Are you trying to tell
(14:16):
me You trying to tell me there's not a pellet
smoker in the bag of every single McDonald's. You're suggesting
to me that it's just an amalgamation of a bunch
of different like parts. Of animals just slapped together with
some barbecue sauce and pickles.
Speaker 1 (14:30):
What it's so good though, so good, I will.
Speaker 2 (14:34):
Say, if you remember, we've been listening to the show
for decades, because it's been that long.
Speaker 1 (14:37):
Now. I did.
Speaker 2 (14:38):
I did say about mcgrib that I it's just not
my favorite thing at McDonald's, and I wish that it
didn't form. I wish it weren't formed that way because
it's like, guys, just just take the little bits and
put it in the barbecue sauce like a pulled pork sandwich,
and it would be delicious and everybody would love it.
It doesn't have to look like a rib, because all
you're telling me is it certainly is not, you know.
And then and then I guess the McDonald people were like,
(15:00):
come on, Fred, and then they brought one up and
I hate it. And I didn't hate it. I didn't
hate it. But my argument was, look, guys, I love McDonald's.
I'm just gonna say right now, I love you McDonald's.
I will never quit you. Even in my fitness journey,
we still make a little room for an egg McMuffin
every now and again, or a McDonald's coke or the
(15:23):
two double cheep, the two cheeseburger meal. Yeah, but not
the McRib. I just it's just not my favorite thing
at all. And then finally, in What's Trending this Morning,
American fourth graders dropped eighteen points in math between twenty
nineteen and twenty twenty three. It's the decline among eighth
grader twenty. Basically, kids don't know how to do math anymore.
(15:44):
In today's news, there's that surprise anybody, I'm.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
Teaching them that common core math. Then still it takes
them ten minutes just to figure out the answer. So
stupid math is just so overrated. Oh yeah, I guess,
I wonder from teachers who are listening.
Speaker 2 (15:59):
I mean, is it because do you think it's because
everyone has, you know, iPads? And is it like apps?
And I don't mean to sound like the old fart here,
but is it? Is it because like when we're in
the nineties and two thousands, when we were in school
we had to use pens and paper. I mean, why
do you think because I can tell you my spelling
is terrible because I don't even try anymore, because I
(16:21):
just get try and get close and the phone corrects
me and I just so you know what I mean,
it's just why bother I don't have to know how
to spell anything? Because when is the last I mean,
it's very rare that you would actually write it down right.
So I guess what I'm wondering is is it technology?
Is it the way it's being taught. Is it not
being emphasized as much? Is it like, well, they'll have
computers so we don't have to do this anymore. Why
(16:42):
do you think it is that people are you know,
kids are not very good at math anymore.
Speaker 1 (16:46):
It's hard for no reason.
Speaker 5 (16:48):
I think it's the common core thing because parents can't
even help their kids because they're trying to learn, right,
They're trying to learn at the same time, Like, how
are you figuring this solution out?
Speaker 1 (16:58):
Yeah? I don't know.
Speaker 2 (16:59):
But and then the question I would ask is if
you're not good at math, does it matter? And I'm
not suggesting you should if you're going to score now,
you shouldn't study math, But like, is there enough technology
at this point that yeah, that's okay, Like you know what,
the computer will do it for you moving forward, So
let's focus on something. Let's focus on you being good
at something else, Like I mean, I'm being serious. I mean,
do you really need to know how to do long
(17:20):
division on paper? I would argue probably yes, because then
it helps you understand other concepts, Like I don't know,
there's a bunch of math they taught us in school
that I don't remember how to do, but I knew.
I know that it built on you know, other things,
and in indirect ways, I use that knowledge and others,
you know what I mean, Like I use it calculating
you know, a tip, or I use it calculating a mortgage,
(17:43):
or you know what I mean.
Speaker 1 (17:44):
You have to know.
Speaker 5 (17:45):
But like even the new iPhone update, you look at
the calculator, it's a graphic. You could put a graphing
calculator on your phone. Now, yeah, there's a setting to
make it a graphic calculator, which I don't even know
the first thing about that either.
Speaker 4 (17:58):
I just made the same boobs when I literally.
Speaker 3 (18:02):
Teach us how to do texas please insurance.
Speaker 1 (18:06):
It's a useful thing.
Speaker 2 (18:07):
But my dad's an engineer and he has one of
those scientific calculators that like you do everything backwards, and
he I'm like, yeah, this is as a kid, I mean,
he he couldn't stand trying to help me with math
because to him it was just so second nature, and
to me, I'm just a bumbling idiot. And then he'd
bring out this calculator where you do everything backwards, and
I'm like, really, as if it's not hard enough, now
(18:28):
you want me to put in like the number and
then equals plus minus a desert deal carried by Ford squared.
Speaker 1 (18:35):
I don't understand. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (18:37):
Danielle's going to explain it all to us, uh, Danielle, Good.
Speaker 1 (18:40):
Morning, Good morning, Danielle.
Speaker 2 (18:43):
So what's going on? Why are eighth graators so bad
at math?
Speaker 1 (18:46):
Now?
Speaker 6 (18:47):
Okay, well everyone is bad at math number one. When
we had COVID and we started e learning, learning teaching
and doing school at home, the kids were just googling
the answers. There was no accountability for the kids to
get good grades, and a lot of teachers will attest
(19:09):
to being told that we weren't allowed to fail students
because of the times were interesting and different. And so
all of these kids, as they keep getting through school,
they are behind because they never really truly had to
learn during those two years of COVID.
Speaker 2 (19:26):
Okay, so it's COVID. Like everything else, we blame everything
on COVID, but legitimately it's the fact that there were
a couple of years where kids weren't in school being
taught hands on, and that's where the decline comes from.
Speaker 6 (19:38):
Yes, and they're so used to getting instant gratification as well.
So I know you guys were talking about having iPads
and everything. Now I currently teach high school, but I
used to teach middle school and elementary math. There's just
no more perseverance either. They're just used to instant gratification.
Speaker 2 (19:56):
Why do I need to know this?
Speaker 6 (19:57):
I have a calculator that'll do it for me, right,
you know, and they just want someone else to do
it for them. So you know, that's a huge trend.
We are, though, I will say, seeing a change in
the younger grade. But truly I think this COVID. These
COVID kids from fifth on, they're just boud to them.
Speaker 2 (20:15):
All right, well, kids, do learn how to do math
so you don't wind up like me. Okay, that's otherwise
you're going to have to be a bumbling idiot on
the radio every day. So please learn how to do math.
I don't want anyone to say this morning that I
didn't encourage everyone to do math because the laptop will
do it. So do the math. Thank you, Danielle. See yeah,
there you go, and don't let your body betray you
(20:36):
so far this morning on the show, it's National Bartender Day,
It's national It's Spatio Day, Saint Nicholas Day, National Miner's
Day which honors the contributions of miners across the country.
Shout out National Pawnbroker's Day, and Foe for Friday, not
to be confused with with for Friday, which is a
totally different day and a whole different thing.
Speaker 1 (20:56):
The Entertainment Report is next. Red Show
It's the Fresh Show. This is what's trending.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
Oh my gosh, there's so much going on today. You guys,
we may be here for a minute. The one thing
that we can't do, but we'll just do it like
we did last week. Jason Brown unavailable. I texted him.
I guess he's not available to give us his sports pick.
So oh yeah, Oh, you degenerate gamblers out there. I
don't know what you're gonna do. You're on your own.
Speaker 1 (00:19):
Man, let's go wait a man, you know what for fun?
Speaker 3 (00:24):
Because work that you want me to do now, well.
Speaker 2 (00:29):
I want you to not betray me the way that
your body is to trade you. Okay, So you know,
when I think about sports on our show, obviously the
first name that comes to mind is Jason Brown.
Speaker 1 (00:39):
Obviously, I mean that's that's obvious.
Speaker 2 (00:42):
But when the next person, and it's very close when
it comes to sports expertise, is mkeitha. And so you
know what, just for fun, let's take a stab at
this and let's let's see who reigns supreme. You know,
Jason's title might be up for grabs.
Speaker 1 (01:00):
I could never All right, well, here's.
Speaker 2 (01:02):
The game that already took place let's see how this goes.
And I know I think you'll choose correctly for political reasons.
But the Lions and the Packers, Oh the Lions, and
they won on a field goal one thirty four to
thirty one. They are on fire. I'm not going to
say it, but I'm I'm extremely optimistic about what says
where things are. No, I'm not, because then then if
(01:23):
it doesn't happen came, it will be like you jinks
me now that the team hasn't already been jinxed like historically.
Speaker 1 (01:28):
Oh so we are plagued with injuries. But I love
beating the Packers. I am, I am. I'm on a
high today. I'm so happy that one. Yeah, thank you.
Speaker 4 (01:37):
I was in a group chat with some Packers fans
here and I was just so no, no, I couldn't
disrespect Jason's momd like that.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
But oh my huh. Maybe yes, a group chat with
Packer fans. Yeah, yep. We got a couple in the office.
They make me sick. Yeah, we do. We do know
what you know what? And then I know who they are.
It's surprising.
Speaker 2 (01:59):
It's funny how I can tell you don't even have
you wouldn't even have to reference a group chat. You
could just say Packer fans at the office. I know
exactly which one they are.
Speaker 1 (02:08):
There's they're few, but yeah they're here.
Speaker 2 (02:10):
Well they're and they're awfully proud, aren't they. Okay, Kiki,
here we go Week fourteen in the NFL. The Browns
and the Steelers. We're gonna go with the Browns. Okay, uh,
we're already not doing well.
Speaker 3 (02:23):
The Saints are the Giants, Saints Giants, Saints Giants.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
We're gonna go with the Giants, okay.
Speaker 2 (02:30):
And the Giants of New York. Yes, yes, okay, maybe
there is something to this. Jets and the Dolphins.
Speaker 1 (02:39):
Jets and the Dolphins. I like Dolphins, The Jaguars and
the Titans. Oh, the Titans, the Falcons and the Vikings.
Oh oh oh.
Speaker 3 (02:47):
Jason always says that, man I thought, Ike, yeah, Jason says, yeah, nobody.
Speaker 1 (02:53):
Else is your answers.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
And the Eagles, Let's do the Eagles. Pro will be
a good pickure the Raiders and the Buccaneers. You know,
let's do the Buccaneers. Why, I mean, come on, shout out, Tom.
Speaker 1 (03:08):
Right, I mean Seahawks and the Cardinals. Oh, I like
the Seahawks.
Speaker 2 (03:17):
You like the Seahawks, and the Cardinals of course are
from Saint Louis. Well the baseball team is originally Yeah, sure,
why not the Bears in the forty nine ers?
Speaker 1 (03:28):
Oh, chah, the forty nine ers.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
Sorry, wow, you're going with Bellahamine intern Bellahamine her love
over the city where you live?
Speaker 3 (03:37):
Yes, because the Bears are in their healing era, so
they can't you know, they got a chill.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
Well, you know, my theory is that they should just
give up.
Speaker 3 (03:45):
Just right, right, I just take the rest off.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
I mean, it's really cold. Fans don't really want to
go when it's you know, twelve degrees and negative of
the four thousand Winds show. So just let's just you
can have you can hold the competition if you want.
But I don't know, maybe we just let a fan
be the quarterback or something for a week, right, I mean,
at this point, let's just let's just make it good
for the people who have been tortured and who have
paid lots of money to go to these games.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
I mean, because who cares.
Speaker 2 (04:11):
They get a good pick and then we move on,
and you coach, move on the Bills and the Rams.
I like the Rams, all right, Chargers and the Chiefs.
Speaker 3 (04:22):
Oh, the chiefs and the and the cowboys O the cowboys.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
Yes, we'll see how you do. Imagine imagine how this goes.
I mean, she does.
Speaker 3 (04:35):
I think it's gonna go great. Bet on it, bet
on it. Put your money up, put your house on it. No, no, no, no,
there's a number for that.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
Please please do not do that. Draft please does not advise.
Speaker 2 (04:48):
There's a whole message on draft weeds when ago that says,
you know, if you have a problem, Yeah, right, call
this number.
Speaker 1 (04:54):
Have you guys.
Speaker 2 (04:55):
I don't want to get too too much into it.
I know the kids listening, and it's have you seen
this story about the CEO of United Healthcare?
Speaker 1 (05:03):
Oh in New York?
Speaker 2 (05:06):
Yeah, I mean, there's kind of no way to avoid it,
and there's no way I have to talk about it.
But I was reading last night. I am amazing this
happened maybe what forty eight hours ago? It happened Thursday
morning or no, Wednesday morning? Was it Wednesday morning? In
New York? It's Friday morning. And the amount of information
that the police have amassed is incredible, and apparently this
(05:28):
dude fumbled. I guess this guy fumbled all over the place.
They've got his DNA, they've got a picture of his
face because he was flirting with somebody at the hostel.
They've got they've got all kinds of stuff. Yeah, whoa,
But this story is absolutely wild and I I mean again,
there was the CEO of this healthcare company. Was he
(05:49):
was killed in front of a hotel in New York
on I believe it was Wednesday morning, and the manhunt
extends into a third day for the person accused of
doing this, and it was they're saying it was a
targeted attack. They're saying the shellcasings on the bullets that
were used had writing on it, Oh my gosh, referencing
people's disdain for the healthcare industry. So there's no word
(06:10):
if that means that that's the reason they went after
this guy because it was a disgruntled person over something
regarding healthcare, or if it was something else. They don't
really know, or at least they're not saying. The NYPD
has released photos of a person of interest smiling during
a flirtatious moment with a female employee at a hustle
in New York's Upper West Side. They've yielded what so
far as the most significant clue to identifying him in
(06:33):
that picture. They say that the man traveled by Greyhound
bust in New York ten days before the shooting and
used a fake New Jersey driver's license to check in
at the hotel. So this whole thing was planned orchestrated,
and it makes you wonder, like, who disliked this guy
so much that you went to this much of a calculator,
you know, this kind of calculated effort to do it.
Speaker 4 (06:53):
Yeah, I think he was either about to snitch on
some people, or it was someone who was like sick
and upset about healthcare and had like nothing to lose,
because you if you don't want to get caught, you
don't put things on the bullets, you don't, you know
what I mean?
Speaker 1 (07:05):
Like you're trying to send a message, And.
Speaker 2 (07:07):
I agree with you, except if this were just somebody
who has pissed you know that. Almost again, I'm not
like a crime expert. I do watch a lot of I.
Speaker 4 (07:14):
Am, Well, I'm on John Bennese's case right now, but
the one on that later. Yeah, but and every podcast
ever imagined. I'm really deep in it. Okay, Yeah, I
have one of those things on my wall with like
the red.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
Taste the street all you doing with little connecting the dots,
yeah shots, and you're yeah, oh I got it. You're
going to crack the case. And no one's been able
to do it in like thirty years, but you're going
to do it.
Speaker 1 (07:35):
I am yeah.
Speaker 2 (07:36):
But I mean this is like the dude came ten
days before. The guy had a fake idea. This guy's
a pro. Except he's a pro except drank out of
a water bottle of Starbucks threw it away. They got it,
so you know he's a pro, except they're able to
track the bike. I guess he's a pro except they
get a picture of his face. I don't know so,
but it just it seemed like for you to go
in and ten days early and camp out and know
(07:58):
exactly where he was going to be at that exact time,
and have the silence gun and the whole thing, that
just seems like somebody really thought about this.
Speaker 1 (08:06):
Silencers.
Speaker 4 (08:07):
I didn't know those were That sounds like something from
a movie that you could silence a gun.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
Well, of course I could have mentioned why.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
I mean, this is crazy, Yeah, no, it's an insane
story and It's obviously very tragic, but you know, the why,
why did it happen? And then of course now tracking
all the evidence and you know, whether this guy fumbled
or not is crazy. But but yeah, it's it's very scary.
And and you know, I was right there for a
(08:36):
business meeting like two weeks ago, and not to say
that it had anything to do with me, or that
I would have anyone would have been hurt. But thank god,
thank god, no one saw it happen, because you know
what if somebody had been standing right there who was
staying at one of the hotels in the area. There's
a bar right there. Our radio stations in New York
are right there. You know what if somebody walking to
work had witnessed this and now they're a witness and
they have nothing to do with it. But maybe this
(08:57):
guy thinks, so I got to take them out.
Speaker 1 (08:58):
I don't. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (08:59):
It's really scary and and and so we'll see what happened.
But they may catch this guy over a Starbucks water
bottle and flirting with a lady at the hostel.
Speaker 3 (09:09):
Yeah, his face is so clear, and those photos, I mean,
like really clear, although to like I don't know our
generation or what.
Speaker 1 (09:15):
But like, have you seen the memes behind these? Like
it's getting a little crazy. I'm like, God, I can't
flow down. Let me tell you.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
I mean we knew this, but if you look at
the comments of this new story, I mean, a man
died and and I know he was an insurance guy,
and but it just goes to prove the disdain that
exists out there for the insurance company because all the
comments are you know, talking about Oh I don't know
is are those are those gunshots going to be covered
by my deductible or I mean it's it's bad. Like
if you go look at people hate the insurance companies
(09:47):
and it's yeah, and you'll see it in these comments.
A Saudi royal has reportedly offered Mike Tyson seven hundred
million dollars if he will take on Jake Paul in
a rematch. So last month, Iron Mike was beaten a
YouTuber Jake Jake Paul. Yeah, I get.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
All the Paul's confused, it doesn't matter. So he lost.
Speaker 2 (10:05):
Now this guy, Saudi Arabia's General Entertainment Authority, he's ahead
of it, apparently, has offered Mike Tyson seven hundred million
dollars if he will convincingly beat Paul the second time
around with a knockout win within three minutes. I mean, obviously,
if that's true, obviously that's happening, because who would not.
(10:26):
I will, that's the number. Yes, I will fight Mike Tyson. Yeah,
agree to it. That's the problem. He's not gonna agree
to that. Seven hundred How much is Jake Paul getting though?
Speaker 1 (10:37):
I don't know. Let I knock you out and get
in there. Times are tough.
Speaker 2 (10:45):
I mean, I still think that if Mike were healthier
even in that fight, even at his age, and if
the rules had been different, like if Mike had really
been able to fight, if they were really fighting, which
they clearly were not. If you watch it, you know,
like clips they've been showing and punches that were pulled
in the it. I still think Mike wins, Oh yeah,
for sure. And I don't think he'll do it because
who wouldn't for seven hundred million dollars if that's true? Guys.
(11:07):
Mocha Moose, Moose. Mocha Moose, not a porn star. That
is the Pantone color of the year. The color is
comforting and evocative of such treats as coffee or chocolate.
They handed the hue to the lineup of Razor phones
from Motorola. The twenty twenty four color was Peach Fuzz
and Viva Magenta was twenty twenty three Mocha Moose. You guys,
(11:33):
snack wraps are back, Caitlin, there it is. Oh my God,
God is good. Thank you Jesus. I've got every trending
is all. What's trendings have to have food stories, especially
best food stories, as long as I can help it,
and they're coming back in twenty twenty five. It's been
confirmed by the McDonald's folks. There are a few items
that McDonald's fans will patiently await between their occasional returns.
(11:55):
Of course to McRib I have a story about that.
The Holiday Pie is another one. But then you'll be back.
There are versions internationally you can still find. But it's chicken,
lettuce and cheese wrapped in a warm tortilla. They launched
in two thousand and six and they were dropped in
twenty thirteen, and there have been tons of complaints since
(12:16):
then about where this thing went and camelin It's back. Congratulations.
Speaker 4 (12:19):
I made all those complaints but if you'll remember the
last time Sweetie was at our jingle ball, she was
working with McDonald's. I asked her to help, you know,
get this back, so I got to tell her at
jingle ball. I think we did it, girl, finally, but
it better be the same. Like Rufio pointed out, I'm
not messing with any you know, different ingredients.
Speaker 1 (12:35):
It's got to be the lettuce, the cheese, the same.
Speaker 2 (12:38):
You know how I feel about the og. You know,
when you love something and the original, you just don't
go messing with it. I don't want like a Chipotle
honey barbecue. I don't want it. Well you watch you
pull a honey barbecue. They go, get yourself some sauce.
Pour that on for you. But what I need you
to deliver from me McDonald's is the snack wrap as
I know it.
Speaker 4 (12:55):
Yes, Kalin, when you love something, let it go and
if it comes back to you, it means it was
meant to be. And I'm finally going to be back
with my snack.
Speaker 1 (13:03):
But hopefully they don't like you, you know, like one
day on you know say like no, I don't need
that just right, just put it on the menu and
let the people have it.
Speaker 2 (13:12):
Yea, on to your point, I let him go and
then they go get married to somebody else. Oh damn,
well that's if they're not already married to somebody else.
Sometimes they do come back stuff, right, right, Yeah they are.
They always come They always come back. Yeah. I don't
know that the or if I'm just a tortured person
(13:34):
or I don't really know. And and also in McDonald's
news today, this is shocking. I mean this, this, this
shook me at the core, guys, but McDonald's fans are
shocked to learn that the McRib doesn't actually contain any
rib meat? What what?
Speaker 1 (13:53):
Or moons?
Speaker 2 (13:54):
What are you telling me now that that thing that
looks like a with bones in it but doesn't have bones,
Are you trying to tell me that's that's processed informed meat.
Are you suggesting that there's not a pitmaster in the
back of every McDonald's making some rooms taking the bones
out in the green d Are you trying to tell
(14:16):
me You trying to tell me there's not a pellet
smoker in the bag of every single McDonald's. You're suggesting
to me that it's just an amalgamation of a bunch
of different like parts. Of animals just slapped together with
some barbecue sauce and pickles.
Speaker 1 (14:30):
What it's so good though, so good, I will.
Speaker 2 (14:34):
Say, if you remember, we've been listening to the show
for decades, because it's been that long.
Speaker 1 (14:37):
Now. I did.
Speaker 2 (14:38):
I did say about mcgrib that I it's just not
my favorite thing at McDonald's, and I wish that it
didn't form. I wish it weren't formed that way because
it's like, guys, just just take the little bits and
put it in the barbecue sauce like a pulled pork sandwich,
and it would be delicious and everybody would love it.
It doesn't have to look like a rib, because all
you're telling me is it certainly is not, you know.
And then and then I guess the McDonald people were like,
(15:00):
come on, Fred, and then they brought one up and
I hate it. And I didn't hate it. I didn't
hate it. But my argument was, look, guys, I love McDonald's.
I'm just gonna say right now, I love you McDonald's.
I will never quit you. Even in my fitness journey,
we still make a little room for an egg McMuffin
every now and again, or a McDonald's coke or the
(15:23):
two double cheep, the two cheeseburger meal. Yeah, but not
the McRib. I just it's just not my favorite thing
at all. And then finally, in What's Trending this Morning,
American fourth graders dropped eighteen points in math between twenty
nineteen and twenty twenty three. It's the decline among eighth
grader twenty. Basically, kids don't know how to do math anymore.
(15:44):
In today's news, there's that surprise anybody, I'm.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
Teaching them that common core math. Then still it takes
them ten minutes just to figure out the answer. So
stupid math is just so overrated. Oh yeah, I guess,
I wonder from teachers who are listening.
Speaker 2 (15:59):
I mean, is it because do you think it's because
everyone has, you know, iPads? And is it like apps?
And I don't mean to sound like the old fart here,
but is it? Is it because like when we're in
the nineties and two thousands, when we were in school
we had to use pens and paper. I mean, why
do you think because I can tell you my spelling
is terrible because I don't even try anymore, because I
(16:21):
just get try and get close and the phone corrects
me and I just so you know what I mean,
it's just why bother I don't have to know how
to spell anything? Because when is the last I mean,
it's very rare that you would actually write it down right.
So I guess what I'm wondering is is it technology?
Is it the way it's being taught. Is it not
being emphasized as much? Is it like, well, they'll have
computers so we don't have to do this anymore. Why
(16:42):
do you think it is that people are you know,
kids are not very good at math anymore.
Speaker 1 (16:46):
It's hard for no reason.
Speaker 5 (16:48):
I think it's the common core thing because parents can't
even help their kids because they're trying to learn, right,
They're trying to learn at the same time, Like, how
are you figuring this solution out?
Speaker 1 (16:58):
Yeah? I don't know.
Speaker 2 (16:59):
But and then the question I would ask is if
you're not good at math, does it matter? And I'm
not suggesting you should if you're going to score now,
you shouldn't study math, But like, is there enough technology
at this point that yeah, that's okay, Like you know what,
the computer will do it for you moving forward, So
let's focus on something. Let's focus on you being good
at something else, Like I mean, I'm being serious. I mean,
do you really need to know how to do long
(17:20):
division on paper? I would argue probably yes, because then
it helps you understand other concepts, Like I don't know,
there's a bunch of math they taught us in school
that I don't remember how to do, but I knew.
I know that it built on you know, other things,
and in indirect ways, I use that knowledge and others,
you know what I mean, Like I use it calculating
you know, a tip, or I use it calculating a mortgage,
(17:43):
or you know what I mean.
Speaker 1 (17:44):
You have to know.
Speaker 5 (17:45):
But like even the new iPhone update, you look at
the calculator, it's a graphic. You could put a graphing
calculator on your phone. Now, yeah, there's a setting to
make it a graphic calculator, which I don't even know
the first thing about that either.
Speaker 4 (17:58):
I just made the same boobs when I literally.
Speaker 3 (18:02):
Teach us how to do texas please insurance.
Speaker 1 (18:06):
It's a useful thing.
Speaker 2 (18:07):
But my dad's an engineer and he has one of
those scientific calculators that like you do everything backwards, and
he I'm like, yeah, this is as a kid, I mean,
he he couldn't stand trying to help me with math
because to him it was just so second nature, and
to me, I'm just a bumbling idiot. And then he'd
bring out this calculator where you do everything backwards, and
I'm like, really, as if it's not hard enough, now
(18:28):
you want me to put in like the number and
then equals plus minus a desert deal carried by Ford squared.
Speaker 1 (18:35):
I don't understand. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (18:37):
Danielle's going to explain it all to us, uh, Danielle, Good.
Speaker 1 (18:40):
Morning, Good morning, Danielle.
Speaker 2 (18:43):
So what's going on? Why are eighth graators so bad
at math?
Speaker 1 (18:46):
Now?
Speaker 6 (18:47):
Okay, well everyone is bad at math number one. When
we had COVID and we started e learning, learning teaching
and doing school at home, the kids were just googling
the answers. There was no accountability for the kids to
get good grades, and a lot of teachers will attest
(19:09):
to being told that we weren't allowed to fail students
because of the times were interesting and different. And so
all of these kids, as they keep getting through school,
they are behind because they never really truly had to
learn during those two years of COVID.
Speaker 2 (19:26):
Okay, so it's COVID. Like everything else, we blame everything
on COVID, but legitimately it's the fact that there were
a couple of years where kids weren't in school being
taught hands on, and that's where the decline comes from.
Speaker 6 (19:38):
Yes, and they're so used to getting instant gratification as well.
So I know you guys were talking about having iPads
and everything. Now I currently teach high school, but I
used to teach middle school and elementary math. There's just
no more perseverance either. They're just used to instant gratification.
Speaker 2 (19:56):
Why do I need to know this?
Speaker 6 (19:57):
I have a calculator that'll do it for me, right,
you know, and they just want someone else to do
it for them. So you know, that's a huge trend.
We are, though, I will say, seeing a change in
the younger grade. But truly I think this COVID. These
COVID kids from fifth on, they're just boud to them.
Speaker 2 (20:15):
All right, well, kids, do learn how to do math
so you don't wind up like me. Okay, that's otherwise
you're going to have to be a bumbling idiot on
the radio every day. So please learn how to do math.
I don't want anyone to say this morning that I
didn't encourage everyone to do math because the laptop will
do it. So do the math. Thank you, Danielle. See yeah,
there you go, and don't let your body betray you
(20:36):
so far this morning on the show, it's National Bartender Day,
It's national It's Spatio Day, Saint Nicholas Day, National Miner's
Day which honors the contributions of miners across the country.
Shout out National Pawnbroker's Day, and Foe for Friday, not
to be confused with with for Friday, which is a
totally different day and a whole different thing.
