Speaker 1 (00:03):
Wakem It gets my day going and makes me lab it.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
Mac and Schmidty in the morning on Star one on
five point seven. Well, good morning, Schmidt, Hey, good morning,
Welcome into your Tuesday. For my kiddow Schmiddy. This is it.
This is the last day of summer vacation.
Speaker 3 (00:22):
Isn't that crazy?
Speaker 2 (00:23):
It is weird? And I feel bad? Is this right now?
There's some thunderstorms around West Michigan this morning that you're
waking up to hopefully clear out mostly this afternoon. It
looks like we'll get a check on it from our
friends at Storm teammate coming up. But last day of summer.
In my head, I was like, Oh, we're gonna go
to the beach. We're gonna go do something. And I'm like, well,
maybe we'll watch a movie today. I don't know what's
(00:44):
you doing?
Speaker 3 (00:44):
And like call them right, because I mean they're about
to be super stressed all of a sudden, their brains
are about to be an overdrive. If you're not doing
anything on your last day of summer before school, you're
doing it right, honestly, Just calmb it down because it's
about to be such a boom. Culture shocked back to it.
Speaker 2 (00:59):
My daughter starting a new school, and I really kind
of was dismissive when we were gone on vacation. She
missed like an open house. And yesterday she got to
go back through, get her schedule, walk to her locker,
go to all the classes that actually made her feel
a ton better. And in my head, I'm like, ah, big, Neilia,
just show up by the first day and you figure out,
Oh I can never. No, She's she's like you, She's
(01:20):
like my wife, and she's like, no, Now, I'm prepared.
I know where to go. I know where my locker is.
Like yeah, all right, more power to you.
Speaker 3 (01:26):
All right, good morning, low O, Kellogg'sville and Wyoming. You
are back at it this morning, and we're super happy
that you are hopefully listening with us.
Speaker 4 (01:36):
Movies, music and all the gossip in one place.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
It's the CELEBRITI scoop on Star one oh five point seven.
Speaker 3 (01:43):
Well the Ketamine Queen, the last of five people charged
in the death of Friends star Matthew Perry, is now
headed to prison for a very long time after agreeing
to plead guilty in the federal case yesterday. Yaswin Senga
earned her street name from singing some drugs in North Hollywood.
She struck a plea deal on five criminal charges. According
(02:05):
to Feds, she pleads guilty to three counts of ketamine distribution,
one count of distributing ketamine resulting in death, and one
count of maintaining a drug involved premises. In exchange for
that guilty plea, the Feds are dropping all of the
other charges for which she had been indicted. She could
get up to sixty five years on all these counts.
(02:26):
Federal prosecutors, however, will most likely recommend a lighter sentence
if she accepts responsibility for her crimes in open court.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
I mean, you know a criminal who deserves to pay
for her crimes at the same time, Ketamine queen, what
are the top tier criminal nicknames out there?
Speaker 3 (02:43):
I think schmiddik Kevin Costner also headed to court demanding
a judge toss out a sexual harassment lawsuit that was
filed against him by a stunt performer who claims she
was forced to participate in an unscripted and unscheduled intimate
scene on the set of His Horizon. According to these
new court documents, Costner says that Devin Lobella was totally
(03:07):
happy during the film shoot that he directed, and then
said he has evidence sending text messages to a supervisor
that she had a great time after the thing had wrapped.
For the documents, Labella said, thank you for these wonderful weeks.
I so appreciate you. I learned so much. Thank you again.
Costner and his lawyers also filing documents with a bunch
(03:29):
of declarations refuting anything that Labella has said. There was
no anger or resentment, only enthusiasm and gratitude at the
end of filming. So what exactly changed? Costner has said
from the beginning everything was on the up and up.
He has done nothing wrong. He calls all those accusations
absolutely false, as well as saying it is deeply disappointing
(03:51):
that someone who worked on the production would try to
embarrass me and attempt to damage my reputation.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
It's interesting because the accuser in that case actually already
shared her text messages that have her right afterwards saying
nothing about this was fine. Why was there no intimacy
coordinator there?
Speaker 3 (04:08):
Like, it'll be interesting, So who's texts or who's and
exactly what? Yeah, finally it would have been such a
different scene.
Speaker 2 (04:16):
You're like, really pretty thank you, so you agree what
you think, You're really pretty.
Speaker 3 (04:23):
Lindsay Lohan was almost cast as Regina George in Mean
Girls after Rachel McAdams was deemed too old to play
the new girl Katie. This is wild, So Lindsay is
in a new interview and said, this was a very
very interesting thing. Rachel, who was twenty five at the time,
(04:43):
Lindsay eighteen. It was Liddy saying I actually read an
actress from Canada for the part, and they said, WHOA,
You're way too old for this. But I think you
could be a movie star. So you are still pretty amazing.
I know. Tina Fey and Lorne Michaels watched a rough
cut of Freaky Friday. That's when they decided they wanted
both Rachel McAdams and Lindsay Lohan. But Lindsay looked younger,
(05:07):
more youthful, more fun and got the part. Otherwise she
would have been Regina George.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
That's weird to even think about.
Speaker 3 (05:12):
It, like it makes your brain her, doesn't It? Yeah,
worked out right, didn't it?
Speaker 2 (05:16):
All right?
Speaker 3 (05:16):
All of your stilepscoop at West Michigan Star dot Com.
Speaker 2 (05:19):
Let's go, Let's get you feeling good on this Tuesday morning,
Smack and SCHMIDI that's what we're here to do with
a couple of stories for you each and every morning,
including right now. This is like a queen's gambit if
she were headed into the fourth grade. It's pretty awesome.
As last week, ten year old Bodhannah Cividonna made history
defeated a chess grandmaster, Peter Wells, who was about well,
(05:42):
I don't know, five times her age. She took the
title of the youngest female player ever to beat a
grand master, as Bodona is just ten years, five months
and three days old when she got the win. That
broke a previous record of a little girl who was
just about eleven years old. But she's only been playing
chess for five years, got a chess set as a gift,
(06:04):
started watching YouTube videos, and pretty soon was competing in tournaments.
And it was pretty clear right from the start that
she was gifted. And she talked to Good Morning America,
both her and her mother, just sharing why she likes
to play against such tough opponents, and her mom thinks
she's really got the ability to go very far the
sport of chess.
Speaker 5 (06:24):
I wanted to play the highest rate player which is
microsco soon now I like to play like hardpponents or finally,
as I can learn from them and I can learn
from what they're doing.
Speaker 6 (06:35):
I feel proud and happy. But at the same time
it all in her hand.
Speaker 1 (06:39):
As long as she enjoys and put in all the
hard work, I mean, she can achieve it.
Speaker 2 (06:46):
Yeah, I think she can achieve. But by the way,
she doesn't want to just be a chess grandmaster. She
would also like to simultaneously be a doctor and the
prime minister as well. So you know little lofty goals.
Speaker 3 (06:56):
Now that when Principal Kathy Martin was pitched an idea
by one of his seniors to do a back to
school tour of their campus in Georgia, he was definitely stoked.
What he didn't know was that the script was going
to be written entirely in gen Z language. In the
video that has gone viral, Principal Martin writes, new to East,
(07:20):
don't be stressed, be blessed.
Speaker 6 (07:23):
Hey, messy's welcome to easter Side, where we start looks
and lunch. I'm your principal, mister Martin is today I'm
taking you on a tour. This buss is respectfully figure.
Let's wrap flex on all the haters in the weight room.
Our students don't skip leg day or class period. The
barn is where it's at, stack up on East trip
(07:43):
in that bold blue and orange, plus all the spirit
where you need to stay reppin hard with your fit
on point.
Speaker 3 (07:49):
It's just so good. What a good sport. He sat
down with Today dot Com. He said, I really don't
know what most of this stuff means. I just hope
I'm not saying anything too bad. I was simply told
to be as medium as I could. Did I do
it right? Video is pretty great? It's on our Instagram
at West Michigan Star.
Speaker 2 (08:07):
He had me the checkond He went, hey, they're besties.
Speaker 3 (08:10):
Yeah yeah, don't be stressed, but blessed yo.
Speaker 4 (08:13):
Movies, music and all the gossip in one place.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
It's the celebritiescoop on Star one oh five point seven.
Speaker 3 (08:21):
Well it's time for another Britney Spears video and hate
to report it once again. Fans are just like, ah,
what's going on? Everything good? This time? Brittany taking to
Instagram to practice some of her singing while cleaning her house.
She posted the video yesterday, not dressed as risque as normally,
(08:42):
but when you listen to her voice, it sounds pretty
decent in the beginning before it goes a little off
the rails.
Speaker 7 (08:49):
Lea no no, no, no, no.
Speaker 5 (08:52):
Lein loves here because we all know when I'm about the.
Speaker 3 (08:57):
Girl, no very well.
Speaker 4 (09:00):
Because I knew what he knows.
Speaker 2 (09:02):
I'm in fight.
Speaker 5 (09:04):
Are kissing this pot?
Speaker 3 (09:07):
Yeah, she wrote in the caption, messing around with lighting
and cleaning my house like no tomorrow. It's it's just
awkward and odd, and once again there's a rumor that
she's trying to get back into her career, that maybe
we could see her doing an album, but you see
things like this. I'm just not sure she's there yet.
Speaker 2 (09:28):
I watch your videos and the word that pops into
my head is manic yeshmitty, because it's all up and
down and all over the place, and you're never quite
sure where she's at.
Speaker 3 (09:35):
Oh, this is a real disappointment. A documentary about Ozzy
Osbourne was supposed to air on the BBC last night,
pulled from the broadcasters schedule due to family wishes. This
is interesting. Initially there was no reason given. A spokesperson
just said this isn't happening. At the request of Osborne's family.
(09:57):
They said we're respecting their wishes to wait a bit
longer before airing this very special film. The new date
will be confirmed shortly. This is called Ozzy Osbourne Coming Home.
It's been filmed over the past three years and was
meant to be a very moving and inspirational account of
the legendary rocker. There was interviews with Sharon, their kids,
(10:18):
Jack and Kelly. It detailed his journey moving back to
the UK, but unfortunately the family just could not have
it aired just yet. It's being very hush hushed on
the reasons though, so I'm not really sure if we'll
end up ever seeing this, which would be unfortunate because
I think it would be a really cool testament to Ozzie.
Speaker 2 (10:38):
Yeah, you wonder if it has anything to do with
the recent news that his biopic is back very much
in the works. The family involved in it as well,
and I know they were talked about the guy who
did Rocketman, the Elton John Biopick, being involved heavily in it.
Is I just wonder. Yeah, I don't know, I disagree
with you.
Speaker 3 (10:57):
Finally, Justin Bieber in Personator has officially been kicked out
of Vegas. If you missed the video. Over the weekend,
he literally tricked an entire staff at a Vegas hotel
into believing he was actually justin Bieber even ended up
performing on stage. So this went down Saturday at the
(11:17):
Win in Vegas. DJ Griffin was actually performing at XCES nightclub.
He was told Bieber was in town. He said that
he believed it was the real Bieber. He invited him
into his booth, and then he hit the stage to
sing several of the hit maker's songs in front of
a packed crowd. I'll tell you, I've seen the video
(11:56):
and he does look just like Bieber. Griffin the actually
took to his Instagram on Sunday and said, how Bustin
Jieber duped me during my very own set. The staff
at the casino got wind of this, they gave him
the boot, giving a statement. After an elaborate and multi
step ruse by him and his advanced team, a Bieber
(12:18):
impersonator was granted access to the excess stage. As soon
as the error was recognized, he was removed from the
resort and denied future entry. But you are talking like
I saw tiktoks about this. People were taking selfies getting autographs.
Almost everyone thought this was the real Justin Bieber in Vegas.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
Dude, if you're Access nightclub, pay this man some money
and bring him back for more.
Speaker 3 (12:42):
Right, same, all right, all of your celebscoop at West
Michigan start oc.
Speaker 2 (12:46):
Good morning to you, especially if you're waking up for
a new school year spinning.
Speaker 3 (12:50):
Oh man, and just how early do you have to
wake up? It feels like a conversation that we've been
having in more recent years around back to school. I'm
every year is school starting two early? Because when I mean,
I assume when you were in school same as me,
I started eight am. I think maybe there were a
(13:10):
few high school years where it was seven point fifty.
But I mean I have friends of mine whose kids
are going back seven thirty seven forty five in the morning.
That is like the first class bell.
Speaker 2 (13:20):
I The earliest I ever went back to school that
I can remember, was eight oh five. That being said,
my daughter is in middle school and tomorrow she will
be picked up on the bus at seven at seven
fifteen and her school day starts at seven thirty five.
Speaker 3 (13:37):
Yep. See, so it's interesting. Channel seven in Detroit did
a story on this yesterday and Catherine Mittz is the
name of a mom who has joined a movement called
Start School Later.
Speaker 7 (13:49):
It's really a health crisis that our kids are in.
Kids really need that five to seven am sleep, that
rem sleep, that's where your brain goes through emotional regulation
and memory consolidation. So these kids are constantly fighting against
their biology.
Speaker 3 (14:08):
And then here's what students had to say. I hate it.
Speaker 7 (14:12):
I really hate waking up that early.
Speaker 2 (14:14):
It's just difficult for one to feel tired all the
time and to know you can perform better academically.
Speaker 3 (14:21):
So part of this movement is working, and there's legislators
that are looking at this. In Michigan, middle school would
start no earlier than eight am, high school would start
no earlier than eight thirty. And I'm curious what you
think would work best for your kids.
Speaker 2 (14:37):
Honestly, I feel like it has to move later. My daughter,
for example, I mentioned to go to middle school. She's
twelve years old and she just hit over this summer.
Is now the time where she no longer no matter what,
wakes up at like seven eight am all the time
like my son does. That's how she used to be.
Now she's in that tween stage. SMITTI where she's sleeping
till we're all sleeping in ten, fifteen, nine to thirty.
Speaker 3 (15:00):
And I think it's interesting they're saying science, like there's
the science behind this. We all remember when we made
that switch, and should school reflect that. I've still got
two kids that are up and at it. They love school,
they get excited about school. We have absolutely no trouble
getting them up. I can tell you, as not a
morning person. Literally can't believe I've been doing this job
(15:21):
for eighteen years, given how much I hate waking up.
It was a struggle in high school for me because
our first bell in high school was seven point fifty
and ooh Lord forbid, you got a uniform violation or
some kind of detention, you had to be there at seven.
Speaker 2 (15:38):
A m oh yeah. My next door neighbor they got
on the bus at six twenty last year, and that
blew my mind. I couldn't even wrap my head around,
like what high school kid you could possibly expect to
be up and ready for a day at six twenty
in the morning.
Speaker 3 (15:54):
Not even that if you're in high school you've got
a sports practice till nine pm the night before. I mean,
if you're juggling all these things. Parents, what do you
think about this? Do you think your kids should be
starting later in school? I know that is going to
be the big change, probably the biggest change over the
next couple weeks. Trying to push back that bedtime, trying
to get your kids enough sleep so that they're ready
(16:15):
to get back to a schedule, a routine learning. Do
you feel like it's kind of a losing battle because
you are out the door at six or six thirty
in the morning and the kids are just like, I'm sorry,
where are we? What are we doing? My eyes are
still closed? Six one, six, four five eight, one oh
five seven. I would love to hear how your family
(16:38):
is handling school start times, or if it's okay, you
can call in and be like, listen, back in my day,
it was seven thirty. We handled it. These kids need
to learn because guess what a future career ain't going
to be Like, are you tired? Do you need to
sleep in a little more? I want to hear both
sides of it. Six one six, four five eight, one
oh five seven, Or you can leave us a talk
back on our free iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (16:58):
Honestly, I wonder about teachers too, Like, would you rather
work later into the day to avoid having all of
your students be little monsters as they come in without
an hour?
Speaker 3 (17:06):
You have to we make an eight to two works so.
Speaker 2 (17:10):
Salty, yes she is, but you just got to take
the SALTI with this sweet all right, your chance to
vent right now, SCHMITTI And you said you were not
on your best behavior last night, Not me, everybody else.
Speaker 3 (17:21):
So I had the most magnificent time at the Frederick
Meyer Gardens last night. They got to see Andy Grammer.
Speaker 2 (17:28):
That was a sold out show. You're lucky about.
Speaker 3 (17:29):
Sold out next level. It was just so so good.
But maybe it's because it was sold out that everybody
was steeling a little like I said, unchristian, like, because
you guys, you have to let people in when you're
trying to leave the parking lot. I was so irritated
last night.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
That place is jammed up in a sold out show.
Speaker 3 (17:50):
Well, like usually you have the good Samaritans walk in
the steps of Jesus, he would let you in. And
I'm sitting there in the car. I've been in the
car for probably five eight minutes. At this point. Lights
are on, so people I'm giving the eye contact right, like,
(18:10):
I'm ready. I'm not going to be distracted. I won't
hold and if some people i mean revved up to
like keep me from even trying to inch it.
Speaker 2 (18:23):
Oh you played, chick.
Speaker 3 (18:25):
Gave me the look like I'm so sorry. My life
is so much more important than yours and I need
to get home so much sooner than you. I was
really unimpressed with a fraction of West Michigan last night.
Speaker 2 (18:41):
Especially after a night at the gardens where you.
Speaker 3 (18:43):
Should be talked about with positivity light forars, he had
a couple hollylujahs. You no, no, You're like, you're going
to get the bird if you don't let me in somewhere.
Speaker 2 (18:52):
You know, the second that somebody's in a traffic jam,
they become the worst version of themselves possible.
Speaker 3 (18:57):
Guys, really so duk.
Speaker 4 (19:03):
Movies, music and all the gossip in one place.
Speaker 2 (19:07):
It's the celebrities goop on Star one oh five point seven.
Speaker 3 (19:11):
Well, the marketing queen continues to queen a new day,
a new countdown for Taylor Swift Yesterday, Swifties immediately noticed
the countdown clock on her website, and now we know
the big moment. She pulled another surprise look, dropping a
brand new vinyl cover for her hotly anticipated twelfth album,
The Life of a show Girl, and true to the title,
(19:34):
this might be some of her most risque and gorgeous
look yet. She is rocking a glitter body suit, fishnets, heels,
She's got a few different poses, a lot of kaleidoscope visuals.
Swifties are loving this, She said. This is only available
for a very limited time. I believe I read like
(19:56):
the next forty eight hours or so as part of
this special edition vinyl. Meanwhile, Life of a Showgirl fully
drops October third.
Speaker 2 (20:04):
You know, schmidee, I'm a swift ear as much as
a forty one year old man should be a swiftye.
And I just don't think I'm ready for the onslaught
of Taylor Swift promotion that comes with a new album
and tour and NFL season and every other countdown in
Easter eggen as she's so just all encompassed when she
(20:24):
goes out to promote.
Speaker 3 (20:25):
I think it'll be next level. If the rumors of
a Super Bowl halftime show end up happening next year,
I don't think that could.
Speaker 2 (20:33):
Pill a lot candal it give me an Adell version Taylor,
disappear for five years, get married, have children, come back? Jeez,
all right.
Speaker 3 (20:40):
No, Unfortunately, Martha Stewart will not be on the next
season The Real Housewives of New York, despite the fact
fans were loving it so. A source had talked to
Page six saying that Martha was in the running as
they were in the process of casting a new season.
In fact, this source said she'd actually sat down with
talks in Andy Cohen's office to become a New York Housewife.
(21:04):
But that could not be further from the truth. It's
been shut down yesterday. Martha's rep said, no, she is
not a housewife, quote unquote, not joining anybody. Not sure
if any of the original casts like Luanne or Ramona
will be coming back, but can confirm it will definitely
not be Martha.
Speaker 2 (21:22):
It sounds interesting and even though she's the next fella,
Martha Stewart doesn't really bring drama to the table.
Speaker 3 (21:28):
We'll see. I don't know. I think she would be
a fabulous housewife. Finally, it is happening. Some of those
words that your kids probably used months ago because now
they are so uncool, have made their way into the
Cambridge Dictionary. Skippitty one of those terms, joining more than
six thousand new words in the latest edition. According to
(21:50):
Colin McIntosh, he's a lexical program manager at Cambridge. Internet
culture is changing the English language and the effect is
fascinating to observe and capture. In the dictionary, skibbity will
be joined by other terms like trade wife, which is
traditional wife referring to a married mom who cooks, cleans
and then posts about it on social and the word delulu,
(22:13):
which is a shortening of delusional. So all of those
will be in that brand new edition of the Cambridge Dictionary.
Speaker 2 (22:19):
If I say any of those words, my kids immediately
say cringe and then by takes.
Speaker 3 (22:24):
Lulu all the time. I love de Lulu. You can
pry De Lulu out of my cold dead hands. It's
my favorite. All of your celebt scoop at West Michigan.
Speaker 2 (22:31):
Star dot com selling a five point seven Let's throw
them Battle of the Sexist Time, looking to get you
over to one of my favorite spots with a family
talking about a Grand Rapids public museums.
Speaker 3 (22:40):
Really yeah, The Sharks exhibit goes until the end of
the month, so you've still got a chance to take
the kids. They're going to be blown away by this.
We've got a four pack of tickets going to the
caller with today's number one answer. One hundred men surveyed.
What's something parents always ask their kids about school?
Speaker 2 (22:58):
So? I asked my kids every single day the same
two questions, tell me your favorite part of your day
and tell me something you learned? And man, have they
decided that they absolutely hate be asked anything. It was
just another school day, Dad, all the time.
Speaker 3 (23:15):
I DK fine, I'm waiting for that six one six
four five A one oh five seven dollars seven that
number one answer? One hundred men surveyed. What is something
parents always ask their kids about school?
Speaker 2 (23:30):
Good morning, star? Who's this Mary? Mary? Where are you
calling from today? Oh?
Speaker 3 (23:36):
Only all right?
Speaker 2 (23:37):
Mary? Do you have kids headed back to school this year?
I have grandkids going back, all right, So Grandma's gonna
get them off the bus, and I gotta ask you.
So let's just pretend it was one hundred dudes. But
I would be curious what your answer is to here, Mary?
Tell me what is something that parents always ask their
(23:58):
kids about school?
Speaker 3 (24:01):
Did you learn anything today?
Speaker 2 (24:03):
Did you learn anything today? What did you learn today?
We just want to make sure you know that you're
doing something while you're gone all day long, But what
did you learn? Is actually the number four most common answer.
I'm sorry, Mary, that's okay, thank you, Hi Star? Who's this?
Speaker 4 (24:20):
Hey?
Speaker 2 (24:22):
Chelsea? I just got a good guest from Mary. One
hundred guys were asked Na, what is something parents are
always asking their kids about school? And she asked what
did you learn today? Which I think is a real
common one, but that one was actually the number four
most common answer. So what do you think it is? There? Chelsea?
Speaker 3 (24:38):
I'm just going to say, how was your day?
Speaker 2 (24:41):
How was your day? Yeah, that's just an opening, good
phrase for your kids afterwards. That's somehow the number three
most common answer, Chelsea.
Speaker 7 (24:48):
All right, thank you, thank you, But that.
Speaker 2 (24:51):
Means we're still open here. A hundred guys asked what
is something parents or was always asking their kids about school?
Four eight, one oh five seven. We've gotten a couple
of wrong guesses here, So the first right answer went
to those four tickets for our Grand Rapids Public Museum
and then awesome sharks exhibit over there. It's four five eights,
(25:12):
one oh five seven? Hi Star? Who's this Trisha? Where
are you at this morning?
Speaker 1 (25:19):
Came all right.
Speaker 2 (25:21):
One hundred guys were asked what is something parents are
always asking? They're always asking their kids about school? And
so far I heard what did you learn? And how
was your day? Which were the number four and three
most common answers, respectively, but not the top one. What
do you think it is, Tricia?
Speaker 3 (25:37):
I think if dads we're asking, they're asking what they
had for lunch?
Speaker 2 (25:40):
What you just assumed that we're one track beasts, that
it can only think about food, Tricia.
Speaker 1 (25:46):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (25:46):
Sometimes, yeah, you wouldn't be wrong about that, But that's
not on the list of top answers, thankfully, or else
I would have just really it would have looked bad
for us, It really would have. But that's not on there.
But I love that guess, Trisia. Thank you, yep, thanks
by Hi Star. Who's this?
Speaker 3 (26:00):
Hi?
Speaker 1 (26:00):
Hi?
Speaker 2 (26:01):
Hi? Who's this? My name is Lisa, Lisa. Where are
you at today?
Speaker 4 (26:05):
I'm in grand reposition?
Speaker 2 (26:07):
All right, Lisa. We've got a lot of good guesses,
but not the top answer. One hundred guys were asked
what is something parents always ask their kids about school?
So far, I heard what did you learn? How is
your day? And what did you have for lunch, but
none of those were the top answer. So what do
you think it is, Lisa, homework? Do you have homework?
(26:28):
I asked the question, and sometimes I feel like I'm
getting a legitimate answer, and other times there's like a
slight hesitation, and I know I'm just getting worked over
by my scammer kids. That's the right answer, granslation.
Speaker 4 (26:41):
Awesome, that's great.
Speaker 2 (26:42):
Heck, yes, you are going to get to go check
out the sharks exhibit over at the Grand Rapids Public Museum.
Speaker 6 (26:48):
That is awesome.
Speaker 4 (26:49):
Ford to it.
Speaker 2 (26:50):
Yeah, yes, congrats, Lisa. We're doing it all week long.
Another chance for you to win tomorrow just after eight fifteen.
It's Battle of the Sexies every weekday on starting a
five points the first day of school, that first week back,
you get to see all of your friend Schmitty. But
there's more to be excited about starting a five point seven.
Good morning to you. It's Mack and Schmitty. A big
(27:11):
shout out, of course to all the kids headed back
to school this week across West Michigan. And I want
to talk to you about those school supplies, Schmitty. Yeah,
that actually just gets you amped up to go back
to school because there are different times in your life
where that's the most exciting thing that's happening. When you
go back to school, you get all starts, a little
new trinkets and gadgets and toys like.
Speaker 3 (27:31):
I have best friends, two of them, my friend Meghan
and my friend Claire. They look forward to this every year,
not for their kids, but for themselves. Like Megan especially
gets so stoked for the office supplies section, everything that's
on clearance for school supplies. She has a whole day
dedicated to her new planner.
Speaker 2 (27:51):
Ohing.
Speaker 3 (27:51):
She gets a new planner, she puts all of her
Oh my gosh, she loves school supplies. She is almost forty.
Speaker 2 (27:57):
I got to tell you, as a as a male
and an unorganized former student, nothing excited me about folders.
Like everybody on our Facebook when I asked this question
said trapper keepers. And I get you, guys. You know
the traffic keepers were cool, especially if there was like
a hologram on the front.
Speaker 3 (28:12):
You did you have rules on trapper keepers?
Speaker 2 (28:14):
I don't remember any specifically.
Speaker 3 (28:16):
We could you not have zipper It had to be
velcro because the teachers didn't want to hear I don't know,
I remember it vividly. We could not have zipper. It
had to be velcro.
Speaker 2 (28:28):
Very interesting on that one for me, Schmidti. Because I
didn't care about organization. I didn't care about the trapper keepers.
I cared about the writing utensils, even though I was
probably gonna lose it in about five minute, Schmitty. I
remember distinctly my mom telling me no to the multi
colored pen for years, the one where you could push
down whatever color that you want. Oh, you could use it.
Speaker 1 (28:53):
You know.
Speaker 3 (28:53):
I don't want to talk about.
Speaker 2 (28:55):
Let's just know how awesome it was to have a
pen that could be four different colors at once. Because
because when I finally was able to get one in
eighth grade, because my mom would always say, you're in school,
you don't use pens, you used pencils. Well, when you
get to eighth grade, high school, stuff like that, that
kind of flips around, And so I finally got one,
and I treated that thing like gold for at least
the first two weeks before I lost that bad boy.
Speaker 3 (29:16):
You know what, I'm going to give it up to
Sally on Facebook she said, how about something re least
excited for new shoes? Saddle shoes. Yes, I'm that old Sally.
I gotta tell you the least exciting part of going
back to school was in Catholic school. We don't go
school clues shopping because we're all in uniforms. But boy,
oh boy, every year I got the excitement of going
(29:37):
to get my pair of hush puppies, my hush puppy
shoes that followed the dress code perfectly.
Speaker 2 (29:43):
Uh when you got those shoes, did you have boys?
Because you know there was the hushpuenny puppies and there
was the penny loafers. Did the boys in your schools
actually put pennies in their penny loafers?
Speaker 3 (29:52):
I was past penny loafer stage. They got Thai shoes
because we were rebels in our Catholic school.
Speaker 2 (29:59):
Oh just while times I'm over here talking about sweet
pens and you're there like, yeah, we had huntspop.
Speaker 3 (30:04):
It was a lesson in chield.
Speaker 2 (30:08):
Me a little pick me up. We're always here to
provide feeling good and a five, four and seven what's
happening schmnny.
Speaker 3 (30:13):
It was full of feel goods. Last night, I was
very fortunate to be able to see Andy Grammer at
the Frederick Meyer Gardens and it was a really powerful
moment I actually caught on video for one of my
best friends. So, her daughter is a huge Andy Grammer fan,
has never gotten to see him live. And as it
turns out, one of the very close friends I went
(30:33):
to college with is really tight with Andy Grammer's drummer.
So she had messaged us a couple months ago and
was like, Hey, he's offering tickets. Would you be interested
in going? I said, I would love to see Andy Grammer.
I would, however, totally give up my ticket if it
met my best friend and her daughter could go. All
of us got to go last night, and it was
(30:54):
this incredible moment where her daughter, who is starting to
get into those tween years and you know, there's some
back and forth between mom and daughter, as there's going
to be when you get to that age, had this
amazing moment where Andy is singing I'm not giving up.
They are hugging each other, and I look over. My
best friend is sobbing with the thumbs up. This song
(31:15):
is just so good. It's so good. And then to
top it all off, Andy came out in the crowd
and got to shake her hand.
Speaker 2 (31:36):
No kidding.
Speaker 3 (31:36):
Yeah, So I'm telling you, if you have the chance
to see Andy Grammer. That guy just reeks positivity everything.
Every part of his show was feel good, keep your
head up, keep going, praise that you're alive every day.
It was phenomenal.
Speaker 2 (31:51):
I mean his song is keep your head up literally right, it.
Speaker 3 (31:54):
Was phenomenal, not giving up, like, oh, it was so good.
But I do get like fun friend points for that one.
Speaker 2 (32:00):
Take time. That's that's very cool and she got cool
mom points out of it.
Speaker 3 (32:03):
Yeah, that was awesome, all right.
Speaker 2 (32:04):
I love that It's ready. This is I don't know
why the chicken crossed the road still eludes me, but
I do know why the rooster did. Here in West Michigan,
it's because he was headed to the dollar tree. That's
what was going at the Family Dollar in Grand Rapids
on the corner of Monroe and Leonard for about a week.
A rooster decided it was just get a set up
shop and live there. As a matter of fact, the
(32:25):
assistant manager there, Amanda Krozier, talking to thirteen on your Side,
about how this rooster just decided to show up and
hang out one day.
Speaker 8 (32:33):
A rooster outside of here with the heck, where'd this
thing come from? He was our love buddy. Yep, we
named him Clyde. I've had so many customers. You know,
you got a rooster outside. He just came walking up
one day, walking through the woods and decided he wanted
to come up and say hi, and just came walking
up and been here, been there ever since.
Speaker 2 (32:53):
My little buddy Clyde, been hanging out there every since.
He was there for about a week and a man
actually post a little bit on social media, and of
course that all took off. One of the people who
saw that rooster was Katrina Van Allsburg, who not only
stopped by for a visit but also to amplify that
message for Clyde.
Speaker 1 (33:11):
So I figured after work I would come by and
see if he was here see last night, and he
was like basically like crouch down, sleeping, and I love birds.
I have three birds at home, and I love chickens.
So I had to pick him up and cuddle him.
I was just hoping maybe someone that has farmland or
something would come and get him. And it looks like
that's what happened.
Speaker 2 (33:32):
Yeah, she went and took those photos of her cuddling
in there with Clyde, and someone decided they would come
and adopt Clyde so happy, and then Clyde off to
a farm here in West Michigan where he could live
out the rest of his days. Although he won't get
as many sweet deals on things at the dollar store.
I would happy Clyde big time. And as a matter
of fact, Amanda from the Dollar Street is gonna be
(33:54):
missing him as well.
Speaker 8 (33:56):
It was fun coming out here taking a break and
just walking out checking on and he was our little buddy.
Speaker 2 (34:02):
He was our little buddy. I love it feeling good
coming at you a couple times today. I always want
to share something positive with you. Let's do it tomorrow
at six forty five and nine twenty here on Star
Mack and Schmidty in the morning weekday starting at six
am on Star one oh five point seven
Wakem It gets my day going and makes me lab it.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
Mac and Schmidty in the morning on Star one on
five point seven. Well, good morning, Schmidt, Hey, good morning,
Welcome into your Tuesday. For my kiddow Schmiddy. This is it.
This is the last day of summer vacation.
Speaker 3 (00:22):
Isn't that crazy?
Speaker 2 (00:23):
It is weird? And I feel bad? Is this right now?
There's some thunderstorms around West Michigan this morning that you're
waking up to hopefully clear out mostly this afternoon. It
looks like we'll get a check on it from our
friends at Storm teammate coming up. But last day of summer.
In my head, I was like, Oh, we're gonna go
to the beach. We're gonna go do something. And I'm like, well,
maybe we'll watch a movie today. I don't know what's
(00:44):
you doing?
Speaker 3 (00:44):
And like call them right, because I mean they're about
to be super stressed all of a sudden, their brains
are about to be an overdrive. If you're not doing
anything on your last day of summer before school, you're
doing it right, honestly, Just calmb it down because it's
about to be such a boom. Culture shocked back to it.
Speaker 2 (00:59):
My daughter starting a new school, and I really kind
of was dismissive when we were gone on vacation. She
missed like an open house. And yesterday she got to
go back through, get her schedule, walk to her locker,
go to all the classes that actually made her feel
a ton better. And in my head, I'm like, ah, big, Neilia,
just show up by the first day and you figure out,
Oh I can never. No, She's she's like you, She's
(01:20):
like my wife, and she's like, no, Now, I'm prepared.
I know where to go. I know where my locker is.
Like yeah, all right, more power to you.
Speaker 3 (01:26):
All right, good morning, low O, Kellogg'sville and Wyoming. You
are back at it this morning, and we're super happy
that you are hopefully listening with us.
Speaker 4 (01:36):
Movies, music and all the gossip in one place.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
It's the CELEBRITI scoop on Star one oh five point seven.
Speaker 3 (01:43):
Well the Ketamine Queen, the last of five people charged
in the death of Friends star Matthew Perry, is now
headed to prison for a very long time after agreeing
to plead guilty in the federal case yesterday. Yaswin Senga
earned her street name from singing some drugs in North Hollywood.
She struck a plea deal on five criminal charges. According
(02:05):
to Feds, she pleads guilty to three counts of ketamine distribution,
one count of distributing ketamine resulting in death, and one
count of maintaining a drug involved premises. In exchange for
that guilty plea, the Feds are dropping all of the
other charges for which she had been indicted. She could
get up to sixty five years on all these counts.
(02:26):
Federal prosecutors, however, will most likely recommend a lighter sentence
if she accepts responsibility for her crimes in open court.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
I mean, you know a criminal who deserves to pay
for her crimes at the same time, Ketamine queen, what
are the top tier criminal nicknames out there?
Speaker 3 (02:43):
I think schmiddik Kevin Costner also headed to court demanding
a judge toss out a sexual harassment lawsuit that was
filed against him by a stunt performer who claims she
was forced to participate in an unscripted and unscheduled intimate
scene on the set of His Horizon. According to these
new court documents, Costner says that Devin Lobella was totally
(03:07):
happy during the film shoot that he directed, and then
said he has evidence sending text messages to a supervisor
that she had a great time after the thing had wrapped.
For the documents, Labella said, thank you for these wonderful weeks.
I so appreciate you. I learned so much. Thank you again.
Costner and his lawyers also filing documents with a bunch
(03:29):
of declarations refuting anything that Labella has said. There was
no anger or resentment, only enthusiasm and gratitude at the
end of filming. So what exactly changed? Costner has said
from the beginning everything was on the up and up.
He has done nothing wrong. He calls all those accusations
absolutely false, as well as saying it is deeply disappointing
(03:51):
that someone who worked on the production would try to
embarrass me and attempt to damage my reputation.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
It's interesting because the accuser in that case actually already
shared her text messages that have her right afterwards saying
nothing about this was fine. Why was there no intimacy
coordinator there?
Speaker 3 (04:08):
Like, it'll be interesting, So who's texts or who's and
exactly what? Yeah, finally it would have been such a
different scene.
Speaker 2 (04:16):
You're like, really pretty thank you, so you agree what
you think, You're really pretty.
Speaker 3 (04:23):
Lindsay Lohan was almost cast as Regina George in Mean
Girls after Rachel McAdams was deemed too old to play
the new girl Katie. This is wild, So Lindsay is
in a new interview and said, this was a very
very interesting thing. Rachel, who was twenty five at the time,
(04:43):
Lindsay eighteen. It was Liddy saying I actually read an
actress from Canada for the part, and they said, WHOA,
You're way too old for this. But I think you
could be a movie star. So you are still pretty amazing.
I know. Tina Fey and Lorne Michaels watched a rough
cut of Freaky Friday. That's when they decided they wanted
both Rachel McAdams and Lindsay Lohan. But Lindsay looked younger,
(05:07):
more youthful, more fun and got the part. Otherwise she
would have been Regina George.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
That's weird to even think about.
Speaker 3 (05:12):
It, like it makes your brain her, doesn't It? Yeah,
worked out right, didn't it?
Speaker 2 (05:16):
All right?
Speaker 3 (05:16):
All of your stilepscoop at West Michigan Star dot Com.
Speaker 2 (05:19):
Let's go, Let's get you feeling good on this Tuesday morning,
Smack and SCHMIDI that's what we're here to do with
a couple of stories for you each and every morning,
including right now. This is like a queen's gambit if
she were headed into the fourth grade. It's pretty awesome.
As last week, ten year old Bodhannah Cividonna made history
defeated a chess grandmaster, Peter Wells, who was about well,
(05:42):
I don't know, five times her age. She took the
title of the youngest female player ever to beat a
grand master, as Bodona is just ten years, five months
and three days old when she got the win. That
broke a previous record of a little girl who was
just about eleven years old. But she's only been playing
chess for five years, got a chess set as a gift,
(06:04):
started watching YouTube videos, and pretty soon was competing in tournaments.
And it was pretty clear right from the start that
she was gifted. And she talked to Good Morning America,
both her and her mother, just sharing why she likes
to play against such tough opponents, and her mom thinks
she's really got the ability to go very far the
sport of chess.
Speaker 5 (06:24):
I wanted to play the highest rate player which is
microsco soon now I like to play like hardpponents or finally,
as I can learn from them and I can learn
from what they're doing.
Speaker 6 (06:35):
I feel proud and happy. But at the same time
it all in her hand.
Speaker 1 (06:39):
As long as she enjoys and put in all the
hard work, I mean, she can achieve it.
Speaker 2 (06:46):
Yeah, I think she can achieve. But by the way,
she doesn't want to just be a chess grandmaster. She
would also like to simultaneously be a doctor and the
prime minister as well. So you know little lofty goals.
Speaker 3 (06:56):
Now that when Principal Kathy Martin was pitched an idea
by one of his seniors to do a back to
school tour of their campus in Georgia, he was definitely stoked.
What he didn't know was that the script was going
to be written entirely in gen Z language. In the
video that has gone viral, Principal Martin writes, new to East,
(07:20):
don't be stressed, be blessed.
Speaker 6 (07:23):
Hey, messy's welcome to easter Side, where we start looks
and lunch. I'm your principal, mister Martin is today I'm
taking you on a tour. This buss is respectfully figure.
Let's wrap flex on all the haters in the weight room.
Our students don't skip leg day or class period. The
barn is where it's at, stack up on East trip
(07:43):
in that bold blue and orange, plus all the spirit
where you need to stay reppin hard with your fit
on point.
Speaker 3 (07:49):
It's just so good. What a good sport. He sat
down with Today dot Com. He said, I really don't
know what most of this stuff means. I just hope
I'm not saying anything too bad. I was simply told
to be as medium as I could. Did I do
it right? Video is pretty great? It's on our Instagram
at West Michigan Star.
Speaker 2 (08:07):
He had me the checkond He went, hey, they're besties.
Speaker 3 (08:10):
Yeah yeah, don't be stressed, but blessed yo.
Speaker 4 (08:13):
Movies, music and all the gossip in one place.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
It's the celebritiescoop on Star one oh five point seven.
Speaker 3 (08:21):
Well it's time for another Britney Spears video and hate
to report it once again. Fans are just like, ah,
what's going on? Everything good? This time? Brittany taking to
Instagram to practice some of her singing while cleaning her house.
She posted the video yesterday, not dressed as risque as normally,
(08:42):
but when you listen to her voice, it sounds pretty
decent in the beginning before it goes a little off
the rails.
Speaker 7 (08:49):
Lea no no, no, no, no.
Speaker 5 (08:52):
Lein loves here because we all know when I'm about the.
Speaker 3 (08:57):
Girl, no very well.
Speaker 4 (09:00):
Because I knew what he knows.
Speaker 2 (09:02):
I'm in fight.
Speaker 5 (09:04):
Are kissing this pot?
Speaker 3 (09:07):
Yeah, she wrote in the caption, messing around with lighting
and cleaning my house like no tomorrow. It's it's just
awkward and odd, and once again there's a rumor that
she's trying to get back into her career, that maybe
we could see her doing an album, but you see
things like this. I'm just not sure she's there yet.
Speaker 2 (09:28):
I watch your videos and the word that pops into
my head is manic yeshmitty, because it's all up and
down and all over the place, and you're never quite
sure where she's at.
Speaker 3 (09:35):
Oh, this is a real disappointment. A documentary about Ozzy
Osbourne was supposed to air on the BBC last night,
pulled from the broadcasters schedule due to family wishes. This
is interesting. Initially there was no reason given. A spokesperson
just said this isn't happening. At the request of Osborne's family.
(09:57):
They said we're respecting their wishes to wait a bit
longer before airing this very special film. The new date
will be confirmed shortly. This is called Ozzy Osbourne Coming Home.
It's been filmed over the past three years and was
meant to be a very moving and inspirational account of
the legendary rocker. There was interviews with Sharon, their kids,
(10:18):
Jack and Kelly. It detailed his journey moving back to
the UK, but unfortunately the family just could not have
it aired just yet. It's being very hush hushed on
the reasons though, so I'm not really sure if we'll
end up ever seeing this, which would be unfortunate because
I think it would be a really cool testament to Ozzie.
Speaker 2 (10:38):
Yeah, you wonder if it has anything to do with
the recent news that his biopic is back very much
in the works. The family involved in it as well,
and I know they were talked about the guy who
did Rocketman, the Elton John Biopick, being involved heavily in it.
Is I just wonder. Yeah, I don't know, I disagree
with you.
Speaker 3 (10:57):
Finally, Justin Bieber in Personator has officially been kicked out
of Vegas. If you missed the video. Over the weekend,
he literally tricked an entire staff at a Vegas hotel
into believing he was actually justin Bieber even ended up
performing on stage. So this went down Saturday at the
(11:17):
Win in Vegas. DJ Griffin was actually performing at XCES nightclub.
He was told Bieber was in town. He said that
he believed it was the real Bieber. He invited him
into his booth, and then he hit the stage to
sing several of the hit maker's songs in front of
a packed crowd. I'll tell you, I've seen the video
(11:56):
and he does look just like Bieber. Griffin the actually
took to his Instagram on Sunday and said, how Bustin
Jieber duped me during my very own set. The staff
at the casino got wind of this, they gave him
the boot, giving a statement. After an elaborate and multi
step ruse by him and his advanced team, a Bieber
(12:18):
impersonator was granted access to the excess stage. As soon
as the error was recognized, he was removed from the
resort and denied future entry. But you are talking like
I saw tiktoks about this. People were taking selfies getting autographs.
Almost everyone thought this was the real Justin Bieber in Vegas.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
Dude, if you're Access nightclub, pay this man some money
and bring him back for more.
Speaker 3 (12:42):
Right, same, all right, all of your celebscoop at West
Michigan start oc.
Speaker 2 (12:46):
Good morning to you, especially if you're waking up for
a new school year spinning.
Speaker 3 (12:50):
Oh man, and just how early do you have to
wake up? It feels like a conversation that we've been
having in more recent years around back to school. I'm
every year is school starting two early? Because when I mean,
I assume when you were in school same as me,
I started eight am. I think maybe there were a
(13:10):
few high school years where it was seven point fifty.
But I mean I have friends of mine whose kids
are going back seven thirty seven forty five in the morning.
That is like the first class bell.
Speaker 2 (13:20):
I The earliest I ever went back to school that
I can remember, was eight oh five. That being said,
my daughter is in middle school and tomorrow she will
be picked up on the bus at seven at seven
fifteen and her school day starts at seven thirty five.
Speaker 3 (13:37):
Yep. See, so it's interesting. Channel seven in Detroit did
a story on this yesterday and Catherine Mittz is the
name of a mom who has joined a movement called
Start School Later.
Speaker 7 (13:49):
It's really a health crisis that our kids are in.
Kids really need that five to seven am sleep, that
rem sleep, that's where your brain goes through emotional regulation
and memory consolidation. So these kids are constantly fighting against
their biology.
Speaker 3 (14:08):
And then here's what students had to say. I hate it.
Speaker 7 (14:12):
I really hate waking up that early.
Speaker 2 (14:14):
It's just difficult for one to feel tired all the
time and to know you can perform better academically.
Speaker 3 (14:21):
So part of this movement is working, and there's legislators
that are looking at this. In Michigan, middle school would
start no earlier than eight am, high school would start
no earlier than eight thirty. And I'm curious what you
think would work best for your kids.
Speaker 2 (14:37):
Honestly, I feel like it has to move later. My daughter,
for example, I mentioned to go to middle school. She's
twelve years old and she just hit over this summer.
Is now the time where she no longer no matter what,
wakes up at like seven eight am all the time
like my son does. That's how she used to be.
Now she's in that tween stage. SMITTI where she's sleeping
till we're all sleeping in ten, fifteen, nine to thirty.
Speaker 3 (15:00):
And I think it's interesting they're saying science, like there's
the science behind this. We all remember when we made
that switch, and should school reflect that. I've still got
two kids that are up and at it. They love school,
they get excited about school. We have absolutely no trouble
getting them up. I can tell you, as not a
morning person. Literally can't believe I've been doing this job
(15:21):
for eighteen years, given how much I hate waking up.
It was a struggle in high school for me because
our first bell in high school was seven point fifty
and ooh Lord forbid, you got a uniform violation or
some kind of detention, you had to be there at seven.
Speaker 2 (15:38):
A m oh yeah. My next door neighbor they got
on the bus at six twenty last year, and that
blew my mind. I couldn't even wrap my head around,
like what high school kid you could possibly expect to
be up and ready for a day at six twenty
in the morning.
Speaker 3 (15:54):
Not even that if you're in high school you've got
a sports practice till nine pm the night before. I mean,
if you're juggling all these things. Parents, what do you
think about this? Do you think your kids should be
starting later in school? I know that is going to
be the big change, probably the biggest change over the
next couple weeks. Trying to push back that bedtime, trying
to get your kids enough sleep so that they're ready
(16:15):
to get back to a schedule, a routine learning. Do
you feel like it's kind of a losing battle because
you are out the door at six or six thirty
in the morning and the kids are just like, I'm sorry,
where are we? What are we doing? My eyes are
still closed? Six one, six, four five eight, one oh
five seven. I would love to hear how your family
(16:38):
is handling school start times, or if it's okay, you
can call in and be like, listen, back in my day,
it was seven thirty. We handled it. These kids need
to learn because guess what a future career ain't going
to be Like, are you tired? Do you need to
sleep in a little more? I want to hear both
sides of it. Six one six, four five eight, one
oh five seven, Or you can leave us a talk
back on our free iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (16:58):
Honestly, I wonder about teachers too, Like, would you rather
work later into the day to avoid having all of
your students be little monsters as they come in without
an hour?
Speaker 3 (17:06):
You have to we make an eight to two works so.
Speaker 2 (17:10):
Salty, yes she is, but you just got to take
the SALTI with this sweet all right, your chance to
vent right now, SCHMITTI And you said you were not
on your best behavior last night, Not me, everybody else.
Speaker 3 (17:21):
So I had the most magnificent time at the Frederick
Meyer Gardens last night. They got to see Andy Grammer.
Speaker 2 (17:28):
That was a sold out show. You're lucky about.
Speaker 3 (17:29):
Sold out next level. It was just so so good.
But maybe it's because it was sold out that everybody
was steeling a little like I said, unchristian, like, because
you guys, you have to let people in when you're
trying to leave the parking lot. I was so irritated
last night.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
That place is jammed up in a sold out show.
Speaker 3 (17:50):
Well, like usually you have the good Samaritans walk in
the steps of Jesus, he would let you in. And
I'm sitting there in the car. I've been in the
car for probably five eight minutes. At this point. Lights
are on, so people I'm giving the eye contact right, like,
(18:10):
I'm ready. I'm not going to be distracted. I won't
hold and if some people i mean revved up to
like keep me from even trying to inch it.
Speaker 2 (18:23):
Oh you played, chick.
Speaker 3 (18:25):
Gave me the look like I'm so sorry. My life
is so much more important than yours and I need
to get home so much sooner than you. I was
really unimpressed with a fraction of West Michigan last night.
Speaker 2 (18:41):
Especially after a night at the gardens where you.
Speaker 3 (18:43):
Should be talked about with positivity light forars, he had
a couple hollylujahs. You no, no, You're like, you're going
to get the bird if you don't let me in somewhere.
Speaker 2 (18:52):
You know, the second that somebody's in a traffic jam,
they become the worst version of themselves possible.
Speaker 3 (18:57):
Guys, really so duk.
Speaker 4 (19:03):
Movies, music and all the gossip in one place.
Speaker 2 (19:07):
It's the celebrities goop on Star one oh five point seven.
Speaker 3 (19:11):
Well, the marketing queen continues to queen a new day,
a new countdown for Taylor Swift Yesterday, Swifties immediately noticed
the countdown clock on her website, and now we know
the big moment. She pulled another surprise look, dropping a
brand new vinyl cover for her hotly anticipated twelfth album,
The Life of a show Girl, and true to the title,
(19:34):
this might be some of her most risque and gorgeous
look yet. She is rocking a glitter body suit, fishnets, heels,
She's got a few different poses, a lot of kaleidoscope visuals.
Swifties are loving this, She said. This is only available
for a very limited time. I believe I read like
(19:56):
the next forty eight hours or so as part of
this special edition vinyl. Meanwhile, Life of a Showgirl fully
drops October third.
Speaker 2 (20:04):
You know, schmidee, I'm a swift ear as much as
a forty one year old man should be a swiftye.
And I just don't think I'm ready for the onslaught
of Taylor Swift promotion that comes with a new album
and tour and NFL season and every other countdown in
Easter eggen as she's so just all encompassed when she
(20:24):
goes out to promote.
Speaker 3 (20:25):
I think it'll be next level. If the rumors of
a Super Bowl halftime show end up happening next year,
I don't think that could.
Speaker 2 (20:33):
Pill a lot candal it give me an Adell version Taylor,
disappear for five years, get married, have children, come back? Jeez,
all right.
Speaker 3 (20:40):
No, Unfortunately, Martha Stewart will not be on the next
season The Real Housewives of New York, despite the fact
fans were loving it so. A source had talked to
Page six saying that Martha was in the running as
they were in the process of casting a new season.
In fact, this source said she'd actually sat down with
talks in Andy Cohen's office to become a New York Housewife.
(21:04):
But that could not be further from the truth. It's
been shut down yesterday. Martha's rep said, no, she is
not a housewife, quote unquote, not joining anybody. Not sure
if any of the original casts like Luanne or Ramona
will be coming back, but can confirm it will definitely
not be Martha.
Speaker 2 (21:22):
It sounds interesting and even though she's the next fella,
Martha Stewart doesn't really bring drama to the table.
Speaker 3 (21:28):
We'll see. I don't know. I think she would be
a fabulous housewife. Finally, it is happening. Some of those
words that your kids probably used months ago because now
they are so uncool, have made their way into the
Cambridge Dictionary. Skippitty one of those terms, joining more than
six thousand new words in the latest edition. According to
(21:50):
Colin McIntosh, he's a lexical program manager at Cambridge. Internet
culture is changing the English language and the effect is
fascinating to observe and capture. In the dictionary, skibbity will
be joined by other terms like trade wife, which is
traditional wife referring to a married mom who cooks, cleans
and then posts about it on social and the word delulu,
(22:13):
which is a shortening of delusional. So all of those
will be in that brand new edition of the Cambridge Dictionary.
Speaker 2 (22:19):
If I say any of those words, my kids immediately
say cringe and then by takes.
Speaker 3 (22:24):
Lulu all the time. I love de Lulu. You can
pry De Lulu out of my cold dead hands. It's
my favorite. All of your celebt scoop at West Michigan.
Speaker 2 (22:31):
Star dot com selling a five point seven Let's throw
them Battle of the Sexist Time, looking to get you
over to one of my favorite spots with a family
talking about a Grand Rapids public museums.
Speaker 3 (22:40):
Really yeah, The Sharks exhibit goes until the end of
the month, so you've still got a chance to take
the kids. They're going to be blown away by this.
We've got a four pack of tickets going to the
caller with today's number one answer. One hundred men surveyed.
What's something parents always ask their kids about school?
Speaker 2 (22:58):
So? I asked my kids every single day the same
two questions, tell me your favorite part of your day
and tell me something you learned? And man, have they
decided that they absolutely hate be asked anything. It was
just another school day, Dad, all the time.
Speaker 3 (23:15):
I DK fine, I'm waiting for that six one six
four five A one oh five seven dollars seven that
number one answer? One hundred men surveyed. What is something
parents always ask their kids about school?
Speaker 2 (23:30):
Good morning, star? Who's this Mary? Mary? Where are you
calling from today? Oh?
Speaker 3 (23:36):
Only all right?
Speaker 2 (23:37):
Mary? Do you have kids headed back to school this year?
I have grandkids going back, all right, So Grandma's gonna
get them off the bus, and I gotta ask you.
So let's just pretend it was one hundred dudes. But
I would be curious what your answer is to here, Mary?
Tell me what is something that parents always ask their
(23:58):
kids about school?
Speaker 3 (24:01):
Did you learn anything today?
Speaker 2 (24:03):
Did you learn anything today? What did you learn today?
We just want to make sure you know that you're
doing something while you're gone all day long, But what
did you learn? Is actually the number four most common answer.
I'm sorry, Mary, that's okay, thank you, Hi Star? Who's this?
Speaker 4 (24:20):
Hey?
Speaker 2 (24:22):
Chelsea? I just got a good guest from Mary. One
hundred guys were asked Na, what is something parents are
always asking their kids about school? And she asked what
did you learn today? Which I think is a real
common one, but that one was actually the number four
most common answer. So what do you think it is? There? Chelsea?
Speaker 3 (24:38):
I'm just going to say, how was your day?
Speaker 2 (24:41):
How was your day? Yeah, that's just an opening, good
phrase for your kids afterwards. That's somehow the number three
most common answer, Chelsea.
Speaker 7 (24:48):
All right, thank you, thank you, But that.
Speaker 2 (24:51):
Means we're still open here. A hundred guys asked what
is something parents or was always asking their kids about school?
Four eight, one oh five seven. We've gotten a couple
of wrong guesses here, So the first right answer went
to those four tickets for our Grand Rapids Public Museum
and then awesome sharks exhibit over there. It's four five eights,
(25:12):
one oh five seven? Hi Star? Who's this Trisha? Where
are you at this morning?
Speaker 1 (25:19):
Came all right.
Speaker 2 (25:21):
One hundred guys were asked what is something parents are
always asking? They're always asking their kids about school? And
so far I heard what did you learn? And how
was your day? Which were the number four and three
most common answers, respectively, but not the top one. What
do you think it is, Tricia?
Speaker 3 (25:37):
I think if dads we're asking, they're asking what they
had for lunch?
Speaker 2 (25:40):
What you just assumed that we're one track beasts, that
it can only think about food, Tricia.
Speaker 1 (25:46):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (25:46):
Sometimes, yeah, you wouldn't be wrong about that, But that's
not on the list of top answers, thankfully, or else
I would have just really it would have looked bad
for us, It really would have. But that's not on there.
But I love that guess, Trisia. Thank you, yep, thanks
by Hi Star. Who's this?
Speaker 3 (26:00):
Hi?
Speaker 1 (26:00):
Hi?
Speaker 2 (26:01):
Hi? Who's this? My name is Lisa, Lisa. Where are
you at today?
Speaker 4 (26:05):
I'm in grand reposition?
Speaker 2 (26:07):
All right, Lisa. We've got a lot of good guesses,
but not the top answer. One hundred guys were asked
what is something parents always ask their kids about school?
So far, I heard what did you learn? How is
your day? And what did you have for lunch, but
none of those were the top answer. So what do
you think it is, Lisa, homework? Do you have homework?
(26:28):
I asked the question, and sometimes I feel like I'm
getting a legitimate answer, and other times there's like a
slight hesitation, and I know I'm just getting worked over
by my scammer kids. That's the right answer, granslation.
Speaker 4 (26:41):
Awesome, that's great.
Speaker 2 (26:42):
Heck, yes, you are going to get to go check
out the sharks exhibit over at the Grand Rapids Public Museum.
Speaker 6 (26:48):
That is awesome.
Speaker 4 (26:49):
Ford to it.
Speaker 2 (26:50):
Yeah, yes, congrats, Lisa. We're doing it all week long.
Another chance for you to win tomorrow just after eight fifteen.
It's Battle of the Sexies every weekday on starting a
five points the first day of school, that first week back,
you get to see all of your friend Schmitty. But
there's more to be excited about starting a five point seven.
Good morning to you. It's Mack and Schmitty. A big
(27:11):
shout out, of course to all the kids headed back
to school this week across West Michigan. And I want
to talk to you about those school supplies, Schmitty. Yeah,
that actually just gets you amped up to go back
to school because there are different times in your life
where that's the most exciting thing that's happening. When you
go back to school, you get all starts, a little
new trinkets and gadgets and toys like.
Speaker 3 (27:31):
I have best friends, two of them, my friend Meghan
and my friend Claire. They look forward to this every year,
not for their kids, but for themselves. Like Megan especially
gets so stoked for the office supplies section, everything that's
on clearance for school supplies. She has a whole day
dedicated to her new planner.
Speaker 2 (27:51):
Ohing.
Speaker 3 (27:51):
She gets a new planner, she puts all of her
Oh my gosh, she loves school supplies. She is almost forty.
Speaker 2 (27:57):
I got to tell you, as a as a male
and an unorganized former student, nothing excited me about folders.
Like everybody on our Facebook when I asked this question
said trapper keepers. And I get you, guys. You know
the traffic keepers were cool, especially if there was like
a hologram on the front.
Speaker 3 (28:12):
You did you have rules on trapper keepers?
Speaker 2 (28:14):
I don't remember any specifically.
Speaker 3 (28:16):
We could you not have zipper It had to be
velcro because the teachers didn't want to hear I don't know,
I remember it vividly. We could not have zipper. It
had to be velcro.
Speaker 2 (28:28):
Very interesting on that one for me, Schmidti. Because I
didn't care about organization. I didn't care about the trapper keepers.
I cared about the writing utensils, even though I was
probably gonna lose it in about five minute, Schmitty. I
remember distinctly my mom telling me no to the multi
colored pen for years, the one where you could push
down whatever color that you want. Oh, you could use it.
Speaker 1 (28:53):
You know.
Speaker 3 (28:53):
I don't want to talk about.
Speaker 2 (28:55):
Let's just know how awesome it was to have a
pen that could be four different colors at once. Because
because when I finally was able to get one in
eighth grade, because my mom would always say, you're in school,
you don't use pens, you used pencils. Well, when you
get to eighth grade, high school, stuff like that, that
kind of flips around, And so I finally got one,
and I treated that thing like gold for at least
the first two weeks before I lost that bad boy.
Speaker 3 (29:16):
You know what, I'm going to give it up to
Sally on Facebook she said, how about something re least
excited for new shoes? Saddle shoes. Yes, I'm that old Sally.
I gotta tell you the least exciting part of going
back to school was in Catholic school. We don't go
school clues shopping because we're all in uniforms. But boy,
oh boy, every year I got the excitement of going
(29:37):
to get my pair of hush puppies, my hush puppy
shoes that followed the dress code perfectly.
Speaker 2 (29:43):
Uh when you got those shoes, did you have boys?
Because you know there was the hushpuenny puppies and there
was the penny loafers. Did the boys in your schools
actually put pennies in their penny loafers?
Speaker 3 (29:52):
I was past penny loafer stage. They got Thai shoes
because we were rebels in our Catholic school.
Speaker 2 (29:59):
Oh just while times I'm over here talking about sweet
pens and you're there like, yeah, we had huntspop.
Speaker 3 (30:04):
It was a lesson in chield.
Speaker 2 (30:08):
Me a little pick me up. We're always here to
provide feeling good and a five, four and seven what's
happening schmnny.
Speaker 3 (30:13):
It was full of feel goods. Last night, I was
very fortunate to be able to see Andy Grammer at
the Frederick Meyer Gardens and it was a really powerful
moment I actually caught on video for one of my
best friends. So, her daughter is a huge Andy Grammer fan,
has never gotten to see him live. And as it
turns out, one of the very close friends I went
(30:33):
to college with is really tight with Andy Grammer's drummer.
So she had messaged us a couple months ago and
was like, Hey, he's offering tickets. Would you be interested
in going? I said, I would love to see Andy Grammer.
I would, however, totally give up my ticket if it
met my best friend and her daughter could go. All
of us got to go last night, and it was
(30:54):
this incredible moment where her daughter, who is starting to
get into those tween years and you know, there's some
back and forth between mom and daughter, as there's going
to be when you get to that age, had this
amazing moment where Andy is singing I'm not giving up.
They are hugging each other, and I look over. My
best friend is sobbing with the thumbs up. This song
(31:15):
is just so good. It's so good. And then to
top it all off, Andy came out in the crowd
and got to shake her hand.
Speaker 2 (31:36):
No kidding.
Speaker 3 (31:36):
Yeah, So I'm telling you, if you have the chance
to see Andy Grammer. That guy just reeks positivity everything.
Every part of his show was feel good, keep your
head up, keep going, praise that you're alive every day.
It was phenomenal.
Speaker 2 (31:51):
I mean his song is keep your head up literally right, it.
Speaker 3 (31:54):
Was phenomenal, not giving up, like, oh, it was so good.
But I do get like fun friend points for that one.
Speaker 2 (32:00):
Take time. That's that's very cool and she got cool
mom points out of it.
Speaker 3 (32:03):
Yeah, that was awesome, all right.
Speaker 2 (32:04):
I love that It's ready. This is I don't know
why the chicken crossed the road still eludes me, but
I do know why the rooster did. Here in West Michigan,
it's because he was headed to the dollar tree. That's
what was going at the Family Dollar in Grand Rapids
on the corner of Monroe and Leonard for about a week.
A rooster decided it was just get a set up
shop and live there. As a matter of fact, the
(32:25):
assistant manager there, Amanda Krozier, talking to thirteen on your Side,
about how this rooster just decided to show up and
hang out one day.
Speaker 8 (32:33):
A rooster outside of here with the heck, where'd this
thing come from? He was our love buddy. Yep, we
named him Clyde. I've had so many customers. You know,
you got a rooster outside. He just came walking up
one day, walking through the woods and decided he wanted
to come up and say hi, and just came walking
up and been here, been there ever since.
Speaker 2 (32:53):
My little buddy Clyde, been hanging out there every since.
He was there for about a week and a man
actually post a little bit on social media, and of
course that all took off. One of the people who
saw that rooster was Katrina Van Allsburg, who not only
stopped by for a visit but also to amplify that
message for Clyde.
Speaker 1 (33:11):
So I figured after work I would come by and
see if he was here see last night, and he
was like basically like crouch down, sleeping, and I love birds.
I have three birds at home, and I love chickens.
So I had to pick him up and cuddle him.
I was just hoping maybe someone that has farmland or
something would come and get him. And it looks like
that's what happened.
Speaker 2 (33:32):
Yeah, she went and took those photos of her cuddling
in there with Clyde, and someone decided they would come
and adopt Clyde so happy, and then Clyde off to
a farm here in West Michigan where he could live
out the rest of his days. Although he won't get
as many sweet deals on things at the dollar store.
I would happy Clyde big time. And as a matter
of fact, Amanda from the Dollar Street is gonna be
(33:54):
missing him as well.
Speaker 8 (33:56):
It was fun coming out here taking a break and
just walking out checking on and he was our little buddy.
Speaker 2 (34:02):
He was our little buddy. I love it feeling good
coming at you a couple times today. I always want
to share something positive with you. Let's do it tomorrow
at six forty five and nine twenty here on Star
Mack and Schmidty in the morning weekday starting at six
am on Star one oh five point seven
