Speaker 1 (00:03):
Wakem It gets my day going and makes me laugh.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
I of it. Mac and Schmitty in the morning on
Star one oh five point seven. Yeh, good morning, Schmitty,
Good morning. Well how was mister justin Timberlake?
Speaker 3 (00:19):
Absolutely phenomenal and honestly, I think it was close to
a sold out show. I looked around and Vanandel was packed.
I'm paying for it today. I'm going at about a
little under three hours of sleep. But it was one
hundred and fifty million percent worth it. That guy is phenomenal.
(00:40):
I mean, his dance moves, his singing, it was amazing.
They had a circle in the middle of Vanandal surrounded
by a bar. He popped through the floor there so
people got an up close look at him. It was
just such a good show. And shout out to Andrew Hype,
the DJ that opened for it. Okay, he clearly knew
everyone was about thirty five plus and got a babysitter
(01:00):
for the night. And at one point I texted Chris
and I was like, dude, it is like I am
at your apartment in Hillcrest and it's two thousand and seven.
It was so good. Yeah, Well like Whitney, anything like
Whitney in the eighties to Ludacrist. It was just such
(01:20):
a phenomenal show. So I saw a lot of you
there last night. I got a ton of messages from listeners,
so I hope you guys had as good of a
time as I did because it was so good.
Speaker 2 (01:30):
Yeah, big shout out to all the Star listeners we
got to send over there. I was with my kids
last night as my wife went to the show with
her sister Michelle.
Speaker 4 (01:38):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
Was she in your area spending? Did you see the
show last night? I have no idea all I saw.
I talked to her this morning on my way out
and I just said, how is the show? And she
just smiles and goes really really good.
Speaker 3 (01:53):
It was so good, and the brass band that he
had backing him more incredible. So I've got a ton
to talk about on the show today. We're going to
talk at seven ten about what it showed me about
my age, but also feeling good. At nine twenty this morning,
something really cool happened right at the start, So I'll
tell you that too.
Speaker 1 (02:12):
Movies, music and all the gossip in one place.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
It's the celebrities gup on Star one oh five point
seven well, the.
Speaker 3 (02:20):
Verdict is in for Asap Rocky, the partner to Rihanna
and mother of her two boys, was sobbing as the
verdict was read.
Speaker 2 (02:30):
Wee the jury, the got in time with action.
Speaker 4 (02:33):
Finally dependent Rocke mayers not guilty.
Speaker 3 (02:39):
It was quite the reaction. He actually jumped into the
audience to hug Rihanna. She was sobbing. This was a
very big deal. Found not guilty of perjury, among other things.
This is all to deal with something that went down
back in twenty twenty two, accused of fighting a gun
(03:00):
at a former associate and friend, Asap Relly outside a
hotel in Hollywood. He actually turned down that plea deal
last month, was very very nervous about this. Talking to
reporters afterwards, he just thanked the jury for quote saving
his life. Hours later, Rhianna took to her social media writing,
the glory belongs to God and God alone. Thankful and
(03:22):
humbled by his mercy. As Asaff went home last night.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
I'm a little shocked. I'll be honest with you. I
just thought that they had a ton of evidence that
basically was like, yeah, yeah, I totally did this.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
I mean, you could tell he was shocked. The way
he jumped into that crowd. I've got the video at
West Michigan Star dot com. Very unsettling situation for Nicole
Kidman and Keith Urban, the latest A listers to become
victims of a burglary. Their LA home was broken into.
It looks like Nicole and Keith were not at home
(03:53):
at the time, but one of their employees actually walked
in on the person. The incident went down over the weekends.
Someone actually smellshed through a window to get entry into
the famous couple's home. They said, uh, how staff member
came in. The intruder took off running when they heard
the staffer. It's unclear exactly what was stolen. As soon
as Nicole and Keith returned. They're going to have take
(04:16):
a look around. But police are investigating this thinking it
could be once again connected to all those other big
name celebrities that have had their things stolen. That's I
believe what they're looking at right now is possibly some
kind of South American connection, a crime ring that's been
able to a figure out when these people are not
there and then be gang entry.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
That was the first thought I had too when I
saw this story, But then I was like, no, it's
just some guy obreca window. This is bush league, This
is amateur style. This is not the South American gangs
that've been going after the NBA players.
Speaker 3 (04:46):
Finally, CBS with a big announcement yesterday, officially green lighting
the spinoff of their hit police drama Blue Blood. So
if you're a Blue Bloods fan you were so disappointed
when it finally came to an end, you will get
it back. But this time it's moving from New York
to Boston. The new series will follow Donnie Wahlberg's character Danny,
(05:09):
who takes a position with the Boston Police Department, the
actor's hometown. Cyba said in a press release he'll be
teamed up with Lena Peters, who's the oldest daughter in
a prominent Boston law enforcement family. So kind of similar
to the Tom Selleck storyline. But this is going to
be a really cool part for Donnie. It's a straight
(05:29):
to series order. They're bypassing the pilot and entirely expect
this to be a huge hit. It's going to premiere
sometime in the twenty five to twenty six TV season,
so they haven't given us an official date yet.
Speaker 2 (05:39):
I mean, is this a real punch to the gut,
a little trim to the stash of mister Tom Selleck
here because why is he not a part of this?
Speaker 3 (05:46):
It might be maybe there's some cameos. This is just
very early on. But I that was a whole, very
weird thing because I had the story a few months
ago that he was really disappointed Blue Bloods came to
an end. I don't know if maybe they think he's
kind of aged down event or how much longer he's
really going to be acting. But I'll keep you updated
all of your scoop at West Michigan start dot.
Speaker 5 (06:04):
Com sometimes because I'd get a good feeling, well, let's
dive into some positivity, and this man's been spreading a
bit of it for a very long time across West Michigan.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
Come morning to you, Macachmidi here on starbut oh five
point seven with feeling good in legendary Michigan broadcaster George
Blaha going into the Nay Smith Basketball Hall of Fame,
the biggest honor a broadcaster can get from the basketball
Hall of Fame, of course, famous for not only calling
Pistons games but also Michigan State Spartan football games, but
(06:39):
this guy has been added forever. Of course. Blaha raised
in Grayley, Michigan. He's been the Pistons broadcaster for forty
nine seasons, a role he said back in twenty nineteen,
he takes extremely seriously.
Speaker 6 (06:54):
So I've done everything I can to be as prepared
and to honor the game and to honor the player.
And I think more important than all of that might
be to give the fans what they deserve. I think
they deserve the best broadcast you can possibly give them,
and they've been great. You know, if the fans decided
(07:14):
they've had enough of this guy Blaha, I wouldn't be
here now. So I appreciate them very very much.
Speaker 2 (07:19):
We definitely have not had enough of George yet. The
guy has called over thirty four hundred Pistons games in
their three championships, including this callback in two thousand and four.
You believed in this team and they have delivered a
third NBA World Championship to the voter city. That's right,
(07:41):
George Blaha headed to the Hall of Fame this September
and Springfield, Massachusetts. But a big cherry on top of
just a legendary career.
Speaker 3 (07:49):
Yeah, I've gotten the chance to interview him a couple
of times, and he is just such a nice guy
and just wickedly talented. All right, let's talk about the
senior citizen that is going viral with the sweetest invitation.
So Michelle Hernandez posted about this. She said she was
working from home when her doorbell rang and she saw
her neighbor Doug Turner. The eighty seven year old handed
(08:10):
her a folded piece of paper, said Hey, I'm Doug.
I crossed the street. This is an invite to a
party I'm having on February fifteenth. Hernandez opened it up
and saw the sweetest note written on it, A celebration
of winter with a delicately drawn snowflake. Thought, February fifteenth,
four pm until the cops arrive, Food and drinks on offer,
(08:32):
Bring only a smile, RSVP to Doug. So it turns
out Doug started throwing this annual neighborhood winter party back
in twenty twenty two after his wife passed away. He
supplies all the snacks, all the drinks, and just like
I said, asks guests to bring just a smile. He
told The Washington Post, my wife is gone now, so
(08:53):
it gives me something to keep me busy. He's lived
in the neighborhood for about fifteen years and thought it'd
be a great way to keep ship's percolating and also
bring some new neighbors into the really lovely street. Twenty
four people RSVP'd and showed up to the party over
the weekend. Hernandez said, I just thought it was the
sweetest thing ever. Nobody delivers handmade invitations door to door
(09:16):
in that sense of community. You just don't really see
people do that anymore. And it is now the coolest
part of our entire year. Oh so did dog Just
the sweetest thing. I love that, Yeah, very sweet, So
I bless I like it when anybody uses the word percolate.
It's an underused word for sure. Coming at you twice
a day to bring the positivity.
Speaker 2 (09:33):
Feeling good. It'll be up again at nine twenty this morning,
Mack and Schmidty's Feeling Good. Open your day with positivity
powered by Overhead Door Company of Grand Rapids on Star
one oh five point seven.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
Moodies music and all the gossip in one place.
Speaker 2 (09:49):
It's the Celebritiescoop on Star one oh five point seven.
Speaker 3 (09:54):
It ends with us. Drama is ongoing as actress Blake
Lively has only new allegation. She's claiming that she was
not the only woman director and co star Justin Baldoni
made feel uncomfortable on the set of the movie. In
a new Wild complaint late yesterday in New York Federal Court,
(10:15):
Blake says that she not only has corroboration of her
original claims, but other women confided in Blake about their
serious discomfort around Justin. Now neither her or Justin's attorney
have commented on this, but Justin's attorney, Brian Friedman, was
on hot Mics with Billy Bush the other day and
(10:35):
he brought up that SNL fiftieth anniversary joke that Ryan Reynolds.
Speaker 2 (10:39):
Made come the going great? Why what have you heard?
Speaker 3 (10:45):
This is what he had to say to Billy Bush.
Speaker 6 (10:47):
You know, I'm unaware of anybody, frankly whose wife has been.
Speaker 2 (10:54):
Sexually harassed.
Speaker 3 (10:58):
And has made jokes about that type of situation. Yeah,
Baldoni is still lying low. Him and the fam are
in Maui as this continues to unfold.
Speaker 2 (11:10):
Yeah, I don't draw too much out of Ryan's joke
on SNL, Like, right is that it? Do you think
that that's a big deals, bitty.
Speaker 3 (11:19):
Give it out hard, Blake's been going on this. Yeah,
I love the little I uh yeah. And when you
watch the video, I still go back and forth on
whether she was in on this or kind of did
that head snap, Like, No, this is not this is
not the look. This is not the look we need
to be going for here. Britney Spears is speaking about
her own emotional abuse in an Instagram post she put
(11:42):
up yesterday. It is another dancing video, as she has
become known for. But it's interesting with the caption she writes,
being ignored or silenced. It's never been acknowledged as abuse,
even though oh it is. It can be worse than
(12:02):
physical abuse. Serve it back. If I'm a white owl,
they might get serious damage. The kind is how she
ended it. This is very interesting because of course I
had the story yesterday that she is now reuniting with
her ex felon boyfriend Paul Salise. They were seen hanging
out together over Valentine's Day with a lot of fans going.
(12:23):
That didn't end in the greatest way a few months ago.
Are you sure this is a good thing?
Speaker 2 (12:27):
Yeah? I mean, anytime Britney posted it was she dancing
in the video.
Speaker 3 (12:31):
Not really, she was more modeling one of her new outfits.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
Okay, I just anytime Brittany's on Instagram, I think of
it like shower thoughts for everybody else. Like Brittany puts
her wildest stuff on Instagram, I feel.
Speaker 3 (12:42):
Like Finally, Tom Holland, the celebrated actor, is not above
getting carted. But it's weird. He got carted for non
alcoholic beer. So the twenty eight year old took his
fans on a little journey and his Instagram stories yesterday
going to buy a case of his new premium non
alcoholic beer line called Beero that is now on sale
(13:02):
at Target, and he explained that once he got there
be a little bit of an issue.
Speaker 7 (13:08):
They wouldn't accept why ID, because it's English and I
couldn't prove my age.
Speaker 5 (13:13):
Really lovely employee, I guess stand there ID, So.
Speaker 3 (13:17):
I guess even non alcoholic beer may have something as
high as point five of alcohol. So you do need
to get carted. But what people are pointing out is
having someone else scann their ID for you is also illegal.
Speaker 2 (13:31):
Yeah, but now on you're Spider Man. That's the part
that I could figure. I'm like did they not look
at him? Go? Do you not know who that is?
Speaker 6 (13:36):
Right?
Speaker 3 (13:36):
No, dude, I'm honestly look at this the video. If
I saw him target, I'd have no idea. That was
Tom Holland. All right, your celeb scoop with that video
at West Michigan Star dot com.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
There is mister justin Timberlake in town. Last night, of course,
over at van Antel, Lorena Schmidde, did that bring back
some of the vibes where you just dance in your
chair a little bit? There?
Speaker 3 (13:55):
Hold on, you got me up?
Speaker 2 (13:58):
You are up?
Speaker 3 (14:02):
That's what it sounds like live. I took so many
videos at Vanandel last night, justin Timberlake, phenomenal, and I
gotta tell you it really showed me some of my
age because in all honesty, I think I found my people.
And that's what's really really fun about a show like
this because everyone there, I would say ninety eight percent
(14:26):
easily thirty five plus easy thirty five.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
Plus my wife and her sister too.
Speaker 3 (14:31):
Yep, so funny because my girls and I went out
for drinks ahead of time. We went to House of
Wine and our waitress was like, are you guys going
to the show? We were like, how did you know?
And she goes, because you look like you're probably thirty
eight and they're going to She's like, I'd be the
exact same wave. I didn't have to work and I
got there and he opened by saying, dang, it is
(14:51):
so cold here. Why do you guys choose to live here?
And we were like, welcome, and you're gonna be into
Trent in a couple of days. It's not gonna get
any better, Jaz, and then he said, how many of
you have a babysitter tonight? And the entire arena exploded
because it's just all of these firsty moms that are like,
this has finally happened, right. We grew up with Justin
(15:14):
Timberlake in Sync hit the scene when I was probably
in third fourth grade maybe was like the very first
time I remember hearing in Sync And now, like Justin's
a dad and married, you know, he's got two young
kids and he's on this tour and I just remember thinking,
oh my gosh, this is what old people feel like
(15:35):
when their big act hits the casino, Like you know, hey,
Franky Valley's gonna be Ryan, I mean, I said, and
I'm so sorry. Not to say that rudely. I just
realized this, this is the start, and JT still got it.
I mean, it's it was a phenomenal performance. He's still
an incredible dancer and incredible singer. The stage presence, the
(15:59):
entire show was so top notch. But I did think
to myself, one of these days, I am gonna see
Ludicrous at like Soaring Eagle. You know, they're gonna be
that point and I'm starting, this is where we're at.
I remember getting so excited to see Sticks at common
Ground and I'm like, oh my gosh, it's begun. This
(16:20):
is a new phase of life. And I realized it
last night at the JT show.
Speaker 2 (16:23):
I like it when I you know, you see groups
like new Kids on the blogs still out there touring,
and you're like, four out of five of them are
definitely on blood pressure medication.
Speaker 3 (16:32):
Yeah, why they wear pants? You can't see their orthopedic socks.
There's no way. And I don't think it's bad, it's
just different.
Speaker 2 (16:40):
Yeah. It does definitely make you feel some type of way.
For sure. I know that that is exactly what it
was last night because it was my sister in law's
escape from her two young ones, including just a six
month old, and yeah, man, she could not have agreed
to drop everything and get to that concert last night faster.
I think I saw a cloud of smoke leaving her house.
Speaker 3 (17:01):
Basically, well, and how long will it take to recover?
Because I know I've got at least two to three
days before I try and make up for the sleep
I missed last night, but it was so worth it.
And looking around I saw people in og in sinc T.
Speaker 2 (17:14):
Shirts the Canadian tuxedo.
Speaker 3 (17:17):
I didn't any one with the Canadian tuxedo. I don't
know if like that was missed the big VMA carpet moment,
but oh my gosh, it was so good and I
want to play one more because I love suit and tie.
You really and my husband doesn't know this yet unless
he's listening right now, but I did steal his best
(17:38):
tie and that is what I was wearing last night,
Oh Kenny. He also doesn't know that I spilled a
little bit of wine on it, So I'm gonna get
home try clean that, make sure nobody knows anything. Because
justin Chef's kiss, you were so good.
Speaker 2 (17:51):
I love it. They Congrats to all of our start
listeners who went to the show by all means, hit
us out Facebook, Instagram, share those photos and videos with
us at West Michigan Stuff to morn and two it's
back and schmiding on Wednesdays. We own our parenting failures
in a little in Schmidy. There is a reason why
ninety nine percent of us send our children to school
(18:12):
to be taunt by other people, and that's because we
couldn't handle it right like the teachers who the patience
level you have just unbelievable. Thank you for what you do,
because sometimes I try and teach my kids things I
really love to. I'm a motivator. I love to encourage
my kids, but there are some things that you just
should not be the one to teach your kids. And
(18:35):
it's different for everybody, but I have clearly decided skiing
is something that I am not the one to show
my kids how to do. Because we did lessons, but
we hadn't been skiing in two years before this weekend
because there was so much you know, non snow last year,
last winter. This year, completely different story, right snow everywhere.
(18:55):
So we went up to Boyne Mountain. My kids were
kind of excited for a little bit nervous, and I
spend time with both of them on the bunny hill
as we got started, and they were crushing it, my
daughter like she was riding a bike right back on it.
My son a little more apprehensious, but totally fine. The
first time we go up the chairlift, though, Smitty, I'm like,
all right, Bud, you're just gonna put your skis down,
stand up and just let the chairlift do the work, right.
Speaker 3 (19:18):
Yeah, getting off a chairlift is the most stressful part
of steaming.
Speaker 2 (19:21):
Snowboddy Rue is Smitty, and so I am. I am
there with my son and I am just shouting French Fries,
French Fries, French Fries. And he literally sticks his blades
or his skis underneath the lip of the ramp agains
sucked under the chairlift. Terrible. He's screaming at me. I'm like,
(19:42):
it's okay, you know, they stop it all the time,
happens everybody. And he's like, I'm not doing this. I'm
going back to the bunny hill where they have the
magic carpet. So he goes off, and then he goes
with his sister and they go up and down the
chair lift probably twenty times, and He comes to me
afterwards when we go in for hot chocolate, and he's like, Dad,
I'm crushing the chairlift. It's no problem. I'm I'm like, oh,
some buddy, let's go up together next time. And so
(20:04):
we are towards the end of the night, Smitty and
this is the first run right here. Good job, budd
It's all right, it's all right, now go down the hill.
It's okay. Just God sucked under again. So I have
do this thing for basketball the time with my son,
where I say we got to end with a make
(20:26):
we gotta end on a positive note. And so we
go up the chairlift two more times and I am
just trying to have him end with getting off the
chairlift successfully going down the hill. He bombed it the
next three times and goes, I'm done. I'm never skiing again. Dad,
This is it, Like it was over. He could not
do it in front of me.
Speaker 3 (20:44):
Say you never say this is the last run, because
we're very superstitious in the Schmidty fam. And that's either
a chairlift fail or a hospital run.
Speaker 2 (20:56):
Honestly, though, if they would just do the magic carpet
rides for like everything.
Speaker 3 (21:00):
No issues, Oh yeah, you'd get a whole one run the.
Speaker 2 (21:03):
One the one BOYD had had a tunnel around it
too to protect you from the wind, which was cool,
But I thought I was in a Tommy's car wash
for a second.
Speaker 1 (21:10):
I'm just going up this thing, these music and all
the gossip in one place.
Speaker 2 (21:17):
It's the celebrity scoop. On Star one oh five point seven.
Speaker 3 (21:22):
Talking about Some Love, Jason Kelsey says that Taylor Swift
has had a quote staggering impact on Travis Kelsey, revealing
his little bro has grown up quite a bit since
dating the pop star. He had this to say on
the latest episode of the Fits and Wit podcast.
Speaker 8 (21:39):
One of the things I love so much about Travis
is that he never grew up like he was like
Peter Pan, like The Lost.
Speaker 2 (21:47):
Is he growing up now?
Speaker 8 (21:48):
For sure? It's changing, and I think that sometimes, you know,
you get people in your life that maybe get that
out of you, and that's a.
Speaker 2 (21:54):
Good incentivize YouTube get.
Speaker 8 (21:57):
There's no question, Okay, Travo, he is growing up. He
still though, got that youthful enthusiasm. I think he'll kind
of always have that. It's just part of his personality
and I think it's one of the reasons, like every
teammate has ever loved playing with him. Anybody that's ever
met Trav you can't help but just love the guy.
And yeah, he's he's a free spirit in the best
possible way.
Speaker 3 (22:18):
He is a free spirit that Taylor is finally settled with.
I thought it was cute.
Speaker 2 (22:24):
I mean, I think that that happens for a lot
of guys. You meet a person who helps you become
a man, like in all honesty until that, especially if
you're not married, you got no kids, you are just
a big child. That's all right.
Speaker 3 (22:35):
I like that everybody being like, yeah, you finally made
him grow up. I guarantee it's like, oh, you can
put clothes in a hamper now, because that seems to
be so difficult for so many guys.
Speaker 2 (22:45):
I make my own Dennis appointments, all right.
Speaker 3 (22:47):
For our daily show, host Trevor Noah has posed quite
a loaded question that has the Internet talking. Was integration
the right move for America? He discussed the controversial topic
on his podcast What Now. He says, taking all of
the negatives out of the equation, things like racism, oppression,
lack of opportunities at a fundamental level, was integration a
(23:11):
good idea. He talked to Princeton professor Ruja Benjamin and says,
take a look at Finland, for example. He's arguing, it's
kind of good to have everyone pulling in the same
direction under a unified identity.
Speaker 7 (23:25):
There's an idea of like, no, we all hit in
the same direction. We all know what our actions mean.
And that's a really powerful thing I've learned in communicating
with other people. When I'm in a room with anyone
where we start to tie together multiple things. So if
I'm in a room with black people already, there's like
an implicit trust because we know what certain actions, words,
and vibes mean.
Speaker 2 (23:47):
And then you're in a room with another African ah already.
Speaker 7 (23:51):
Now even if you shouts at me, I know what
your shout means, the same way in Italian knows what
an Italian shout means.
Speaker 2 (23:56):
Yeah, right, I know.
Speaker 7 (23:58):
So I'm prefacing it with a lot. Yes, it's a
loaded question, yes, but I would love to know if
you think integration was the right solution. Maybe on the
other side of you know what, America of civil rights.
Speaker 3 (24:11):
Very strong reactions online this morning to that I'm not
I haven't listened to the whole podcast, but it is
a very interesting thing to think about the way he
positions it well.
Speaker 2 (24:22):
And Trevor is South African himself, so I mean he
saw first hand some of the after effects of the
apartheid movement through South Africa, Nelson Mandela coming into power.
Like I'm sure all of that was either before he
was born or just as he was a young person there,
but I'm sure that definitely influenced his views of the world.
Speaker 3 (24:40):
Yeah, you can listen to that entire interview at West
Michigan Star dot com. Finally, Paris Hilton has hit a
parenting milestone. Her two year old son, Phoenix has learned
a naughty word.
Speaker 2 (24:57):
Do you hear that?
Speaker 5 (25:01):
What did you say?
Speaker 3 (25:08):
Yeah? She was trying to catch a very sweet moment
at dinner when Phoenix continued to drop the bomb, and
she says, I feel like every parent will understand this.
I am barely holding it together, and he says it so.
Speaker 2 (25:21):
Clearly I was gonna say, not laughing.
Speaker 3 (25:24):
Yeah, all of you are cilib scoop at West Michigan
Star dot com.
Speaker 2 (25:29):
Starting a fine point seven, It's Mack and Schmidty And
if you've gotten kids that are jamming out with you
in the car every day when they're on their way
to school as you're dropping them off. They gotta go
to this show. SCHMITTI it's a battle of the sexiest
time lending you at some musical funds.
Speaker 3 (25:41):
Yeah, I reached the time where I know more Kids
Bop songs than regular current things on the radio. I
think a lot of you feel the same way. Kids
Bop Live is coming to De Boss Performance Hall. We're
gonna get your family in right now. With the number
one answer today's question. One hundred women surveyed. Name a
type of bell not used for pants.
Speaker 2 (26:02):
I can go ahead and tell you because it always
costs me a bunch of money when it breaks, and
it definitely doesn't hold up my pants. The timing belts
in your vehicle. Have had to replace that a couple
of times in my life. Not fun.
Speaker 3 (26:12):
You know what's great? I have no idea what that is.
And if you don't know what it is, you just
never check it and hope your car is good. Jesus
take the wheel. Six one, six, four, five, eight, one
oh five seven. One hundred women surveyed. Name a type
of belt not used for pants. You've got the number
one answer. And we are sending you to the certified
bop or at the boss with Star Win. Oh five
(26:33):
point seven.
Speaker 2 (26:35):
Good morning, Star. Who's this good?
Speaker 3 (26:37):
This is Wendy.
Speaker 2 (26:38):
Wendy, where are you coming from today? All right, Wendy,
let's see if we can get you into Kids Pop Live.
Just got to tell me when one hundred women were
asked today, I'm on type of belt that's not used
to hold pants up? What do you think their top
answer was, Wendy, Oh, well, you know, when I have
to go.
Speaker 1 (26:54):
Out and fix something in the yard that requires a SPA,
I usually strap online cool.
Speaker 2 (27:00):
Belt, usually strap on your tool belts. You're ready to
get out there? I mean, do you do odd jobs?
Can I just hire you? Because you sound pretty handy?
I'll be honest with you, Weddy, I'm I like it. Well,
you weren't just joking about the top answer, tool belt,
is it? Congrats? Yeah? It was a tool belts, followed
by a conveyor belt, then a karate belt, which I
(27:22):
was really hoping you were going to guess too, Wendy,
only because you were a black belt. I'm sure as well.
But then your seat belts running out those top four answers, Wait.
Speaker 5 (27:31):
To go.
Speaker 2 (27:31):
Thank you, You are welcome. You're going to Kids Bop
Live over at de Vos Performance Hall.
Speaker 9 (27:36):
Thank you.
Speaker 2 (27:36):
It's the Certified Bop Tour. I've never been cool enough
to call a song a bop really before, but I
think there you go for sure. We'll do it all
week long. Your chance to win again tomorrow. Battle of
the Sexes eight fifteen. Here on Startino five point seven. Shaman,
it's he, It's back and SCHMITTI and I'm going to
talk about a little dating and marriage phenomenon Smitty that
I saw on my Facebook yesterday and it honestly had
(28:00):
me doing a double look. Weirded out completely. At a
certain point in your life, everybody's getting married. Another certain
point in your life, everybody seems like they get divorced
when it comes to you know, your wide ranging friends
across your social media platforms. And I'm in that latter
stage right about now. Sadly, and one of my good
couple friends from high school in college, they got divorced
(28:20):
about a year and a half ago, and you know,
went their separate ways, and I'm not super close with
either one of them, but you know, we were at
one time in life and I was bummed that they
broke up. But you know, sometimes you just don't unfriend somebody.
You don't choose a sign, right, it's just your Facebook, never.
Speaker 3 (28:35):
On friend somebody you want to be able to see
all the drama exactly.
Speaker 2 (28:38):
Well, there was no drama, thankfully with these two. But
the girl just wound up getting remarried. And she was
sharing her photos from over the weekends and them getting married,
this destination wedding, and I saw the first photo and go, wait,
did she get married to him again? I literally thought
it was our friend her ex husband got a type.
(29:02):
It's not a type because they look like the most
generic dudes. I mean like greenish brown eyes, sandy color hair,
about five foot ten, I don't know, one hundred and seventy's.
It couldn't be more of an average looking human being.
And yet the facial structure just to a t, the
amount of facial hair, how we catch it just like
(29:23):
her ex husband. How creepy is that? Though? I mean
I could see you have a type, you know, like, oh,
I'm into tall, dark and handsome, block whatever, But when
they look so close together that you feel like you
could be looking at brothers or twins wouldn't that be
a turnoff for you? I'm talking about your ex husband,
my ex.
Speaker 3 (29:41):
Boyfriend, da is someone that looks exactly like me.
Speaker 2 (29:45):
How did that make you feel? Did it make good?
Speaker 3 (29:48):
I was like, yeah, that's right at the best, Ready
for the rest.
Speaker 2 (29:53):
I find it to be like it from that point
of view, maybe a little flattering. I can see it's like, oh,
you know what, I burned myself into his subconscious and
he can never get enough of me.
Speaker 3 (30:05):
Must hurt to half peaked so early, my guys.
Speaker 2 (30:08):
At the same time, I feel like the opportunity to
call someone by the wrong name jumps exponentially. There Schmid
talking about divorce. Yeah, dephlaperdun starting on fine point seven
where it's time to get feeling.
Speaker 5 (30:20):
Dude sometime because I get a good.
Speaker 2 (30:26):
Feeling, Ye, what's happeneding smiddy.
Speaker 3 (30:29):
There were so many cool moments about the Justin Timberlake
show last night at Baniandolt, but this one definitely stood
out to me. It was right towards the beginning of
the show, there was a woman right on the floor
level up against that stage. JT comes out and you
can see that she's caught his eye and he's trying
to read her sign, and it turns out her name
(30:51):
is Valerie and she is at the Justin Timberlake show
at Danandel last night, celebrating with all of her friends
because she beat cancer. Check out this moment.
Speaker 2 (31:02):
You can be cancer.
Speaker 4 (31:03):
You canna have whatever you want.
Speaker 2 (31:07):
What's your name?
Speaker 9 (31:08):
Valerie made some noise for Valerie. Okay, now all you
people are going to be in a Valerie selfie, so
don't get caught looking license chunks you ready have?
Speaker 2 (31:26):
Are we chin?
Speaker 9 (31:26):
Valerie?
Speaker 4 (31:27):
Let's go BLAWAYO three? Here you go see her one
more time for Valerie.
Speaker 3 (31:42):
It's just such a cool moment. She got that selfie
with Justin and man, you could see he was really
moved by it. You know, to celebrate something as big
as beating cancer with one of your idols, it's pretty sweet.
Speaker 2 (31:55):
That is unbelievable. It's so cool to you stop the
show to do that. Thatsome moment, for sure, Schmidia. Mine
is actually also about Justin Timberlake concert, Schmitty, but it
is not about last night's concert. I didn't tell you that.
My wife and her sister went last night. They had
a blast. But that was not the first JT show
that they went to. And I actually talked about this
(32:15):
when we were giving away some of the tickets about
how my wife and her sister were on the floor
one time and they got to be so close to
Justin Timberlake when he came out into the middle of
the audience, sort of like he did last night, where
they could they were so close they could almost touch it.
What I had completely forgotten about that, Schmitty, was that
you made that happen. Do you remember that?
Speaker 5 (32:35):
No.
Speaker 2 (32:36):
My wife reminded me of this last night, and I
wanted to bring it up to you today because I
think it's the funniest thing. You gave Michelle your tickets
April fourth at Van anddel for the twenty nineteen show
for justin Timberlake. You had floor tickets, but you had
young ones at all two yeah, and for whatever reason
(32:59):
you couldn't Oh yeah. And I'd completely forgotten about this.
My wife told it, tells me last night and she goes,
oh my god, nothing will ever talk. And you know
they're talking about how sid of there. She goes, nothing
will ever top And she goes, do you know that
Schmitty was the one who gave me her tickets for
that show. Yeah, you ran out of your house because
you didn't want my wife coming inside your house at
the time. I don't think it was at your old
house obviously before, but you ran out of your house
(33:20):
to give her the tickets in the car before going.
You led to one of the best moments of her life,
with her and her sister getting to share in that
time as justin Timberlake serenaded them literally right above them.
Speaker 3 (33:35):
I do remember running out to the car because I
didn't wanted to miss a moment of catching like a
good floor spot. I was like, get down there.
Speaker 2 (33:42):
But she brought that up last night and just what
an incredible moment and her life it was musically and
just you know how she got to relive this guy
that's been on her celebrity list forever. But that was
all because of you. And I told Michelle Goes, oh,
I'm sure she probably hates that she gave me those tickets,
And I said, one hundred percent, she does not remember.
I got we coming across Stas all the time. I
(34:02):
got one thousand percent. Schmitty has forgotten all about this,
So I wanted to remind you of that today. And
Sharon Giant, thank you for Michelle and her sister for that.
Speaker 3 (34:09):
Yeah, that would have still been within the first year
of well being born, so I don't remember anything so giant.
Speaker 2 (34:16):
Thank you again. You made her feel good and years
later she still feels good.
Speaker 3 (34:20):
I'm glad she got to go again last night. It
was a great show.
Speaker 2 (34:23):
I didn't want to wash your eyeballs ever again. Out
of that one, for sure, I feel like good coming
at you a couple of times a day. Let's do
it tomorrow. Bring that positivity for you. At six forty
five and nine twenty you're 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 laugh.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
I of it. Mac and Schmitty in the morning on
Star one oh five point seven. Yeh, good morning, Schmitty,
Good morning. Well how was mister justin Timberlake?
Speaker 3 (00:19):
Absolutely phenomenal and honestly, I think it was close to
a sold out show. I looked around and Vanandel was packed.
I'm paying for it today. I'm going at about a
little under three hours of sleep. But it was one
hundred and fifty million percent worth it. That guy is phenomenal.
(00:40):
I mean, his dance moves, his singing, it was amazing.
They had a circle in the middle of Vanandal surrounded
by a bar. He popped through the floor there so
people got an up close look at him. It was
just such a good show. And shout out to Andrew Hype,
the DJ that opened for it. Okay, he clearly knew
everyone was about thirty five plus and got a babysitter
(01:00):
for the night. And at one point I texted Chris
and I was like, dude, it is like I am
at your apartment in Hillcrest and it's two thousand and seven.
It was so good. Yeah, Well like Whitney, anything like
Whitney in the eighties to Ludacrist. It was just such
(01:20):
a phenomenal show. So I saw a lot of you
there last night. I got a ton of messages from listeners,
so I hope you guys had as good of a
time as I did because it was so good.
Speaker 2 (01:30):
Yeah, big shout out to all the Star listeners we
got to send over there. I was with my kids
last night as my wife went to the show with
her sister Michelle.
Speaker 4 (01:38):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
Was she in your area spending? Did you see the
show last night? I have no idea all I saw.
I talked to her this morning on my way out
and I just said, how is the show? And she
just smiles and goes really really good.
Speaker 3 (01:53):
It was so good, and the brass band that he
had backing him more incredible. So I've got a ton
to talk about on the show today. We're going to
talk at seven ten about what it showed me about
my age, but also feeling good. At nine twenty this morning,
something really cool happened right at the start, So I'll
tell you that too.
Speaker 1 (02:12):
Movies, music and all the gossip in one place.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
It's the celebrities gup on Star one oh five point
seven well, the.
Speaker 3 (02:20):
Verdict is in for Asap Rocky, the partner to Rihanna
and mother of her two boys, was sobbing as the
verdict was read.
Speaker 2 (02:30):
Wee the jury, the got in time with action.
Speaker 4 (02:33):
Finally dependent Rocke mayers not guilty.
Speaker 3 (02:39):
It was quite the reaction. He actually jumped into the
audience to hug Rihanna. She was sobbing. This was a
very big deal. Found not guilty of perjury, among other things.
This is all to deal with something that went down
back in twenty twenty two, accused of fighting a gun
(03:00):
at a former associate and friend, Asap Relly outside a
hotel in Hollywood. He actually turned down that plea deal
last month, was very very nervous about this. Talking to
reporters afterwards, he just thanked the jury for quote saving
his life. Hours later, Rhianna took to her social media writing,
the glory belongs to God and God alone. Thankful and
(03:22):
humbled by his mercy. As Asaff went home last night.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
I'm a little shocked. I'll be honest with you. I
just thought that they had a ton of evidence that
basically was like, yeah, yeah, I totally did this.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
I mean, you could tell he was shocked. The way
he jumped into that crowd. I've got the video at
West Michigan Star dot com. Very unsettling situation for Nicole
Kidman and Keith Urban, the latest A listers to become
victims of a burglary. Their LA home was broken into.
It looks like Nicole and Keith were not at home
(03:53):
at the time, but one of their employees actually walked
in on the person. The incident went down over the weekends.
Someone actually smellshed through a window to get entry into
the famous couple's home. They said, uh, how staff member
came in. The intruder took off running when they heard
the staffer. It's unclear exactly what was stolen. As soon
as Nicole and Keith returned. They're going to have take
(04:16):
a look around. But police are investigating this thinking it
could be once again connected to all those other big
name celebrities that have had their things stolen. That's I
believe what they're looking at right now is possibly some
kind of South American connection, a crime ring that's been
able to a figure out when these people are not
there and then be gang entry.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
That was the first thought I had too when I
saw this story, But then I was like, no, it's
just some guy obreca window. This is bush league, This
is amateur style. This is not the South American gangs
that've been going after the NBA players.
Speaker 3 (04:46):
Finally, CBS with a big announcement yesterday, officially green lighting
the spinoff of their hit police drama Blue Blood. So
if you're a Blue Bloods fan you were so disappointed
when it finally came to an end, you will get
it back. But this time it's moving from New York
to Boston. The new series will follow Donnie Wahlberg's character Danny,
(05:09):
who takes a position with the Boston Police Department, the
actor's hometown. Cyba said in a press release he'll be
teamed up with Lena Peters, who's the oldest daughter in
a prominent Boston law enforcement family. So kind of similar
to the Tom Selleck storyline. But this is going to
be a really cool part for Donnie. It's a straight
(05:29):
to series order. They're bypassing the pilot and entirely expect
this to be a huge hit. It's going to premiere
sometime in the twenty five to twenty six TV season,
so they haven't given us an official date yet.
Speaker 2 (05:39):
I mean, is this a real punch to the gut,
a little trim to the stash of mister Tom Selleck
here because why is he not a part of this?
Speaker 3 (05:46):
It might be maybe there's some cameos. This is just
very early on. But I that was a whole, very
weird thing because I had the story a few months
ago that he was really disappointed Blue Bloods came to
an end. I don't know if maybe they think he's
kind of aged down event or how much longer he's
really going to be acting. But I'll keep you updated
all of your scoop at West Michigan start dot.
Speaker 5 (06:04):
Com sometimes because I'd get a good feeling, well, let's
dive into some positivity, and this man's been spreading a
bit of it for a very long time across West Michigan.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
Come morning to you, Macachmidi here on starbut oh five
point seven with feeling good in legendary Michigan broadcaster George
Blaha going into the Nay Smith Basketball Hall of Fame,
the biggest honor a broadcaster can get from the basketball
Hall of Fame, of course, famous for not only calling
Pistons games but also Michigan State Spartan football games, but
(06:39):
this guy has been added forever. Of course. Blaha raised
in Grayley, Michigan. He's been the Pistons broadcaster for forty
nine seasons, a role he said back in twenty nineteen,
he takes extremely seriously.
Speaker 6 (06:54):
So I've done everything I can to be as prepared
and to honor the game and to honor the player.
And I think more important than all of that might
be to give the fans what they deserve. I think
they deserve the best broadcast you can possibly give them,
and they've been great. You know, if the fans decided
(07:14):
they've had enough of this guy Blaha, I wouldn't be
here now. So I appreciate them very very much.
Speaker 2 (07:19):
We definitely have not had enough of George yet. The
guy has called over thirty four hundred Pistons games in
their three championships, including this callback in two thousand and four.
You believed in this team and they have delivered a
third NBA World Championship to the voter city. That's right,
(07:41):
George Blaha headed to the Hall of Fame this September
and Springfield, Massachusetts. But a big cherry on top of
just a legendary career.
Speaker 3 (07:49):
Yeah, I've gotten the chance to interview him a couple
of times, and he is just such a nice guy
and just wickedly talented. All right, let's talk about the
senior citizen that is going viral with the sweetest invitation.
So Michelle Hernandez posted about this. She said she was
working from home when her doorbell rang and she saw
her neighbor Doug Turner. The eighty seven year old handed
(08:10):
her a folded piece of paper, said Hey, I'm Doug.
I crossed the street. This is an invite to a
party I'm having on February fifteenth. Hernandez opened it up
and saw the sweetest note written on it, A celebration
of winter with a delicately drawn snowflake. Thought, February fifteenth,
four pm until the cops arrive, Food and drinks on offer,
(08:32):
Bring only a smile, RSVP to Doug. So it turns
out Doug started throwing this annual neighborhood winter party back
in twenty twenty two after his wife passed away. He
supplies all the snacks, all the drinks, and just like
I said, asks guests to bring just a smile. He
told The Washington Post, my wife is gone now, so
(08:53):
it gives me something to keep me busy. He's lived
in the neighborhood for about fifteen years and thought it'd
be a great way to keep ship's percolating and also
bring some new neighbors into the really lovely street. Twenty
four people RSVP'd and showed up to the party over
the weekend. Hernandez said, I just thought it was the
sweetest thing ever. Nobody delivers handmade invitations door to door
(09:16):
in that sense of community. You just don't really see
people do that anymore. And it is now the coolest
part of our entire year. Oh so did dog Just
the sweetest thing. I love that, Yeah, very sweet, So
I bless I like it when anybody uses the word percolate.
It's an underused word for sure. Coming at you twice
a day to bring the positivity.
Speaker 2 (09:33):
Feeling good. It'll be up again at nine twenty this morning,
Mack and Schmidty's Feeling Good. Open your day with positivity
powered by Overhead Door Company of Grand Rapids on Star
one oh five point seven.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
Moodies music and all the gossip in one place.
Speaker 2 (09:49):
It's the Celebritiescoop on Star one oh five point seven.
Speaker 3 (09:54):
It ends with us. Drama is ongoing as actress Blake
Lively has only new allegation. She's claiming that she was
not the only woman director and co star Justin Baldoni
made feel uncomfortable on the set of the movie. In
a new Wild complaint late yesterday in New York Federal Court,
(10:15):
Blake says that she not only has corroboration of her
original claims, but other women confided in Blake about their
serious discomfort around Justin. Now neither her or Justin's attorney
have commented on this, but Justin's attorney, Brian Friedman, was
on hot Mics with Billy Bush the other day and
(10:35):
he brought up that SNL fiftieth anniversary joke that Ryan Reynolds.
Speaker 2 (10:39):
Made come the going great? Why what have you heard?
Speaker 3 (10:45):
This is what he had to say to Billy Bush.
Speaker 6 (10:47):
You know, I'm unaware of anybody, frankly whose wife has been.
Speaker 2 (10:54):
Sexually harassed.
Speaker 3 (10:58):
And has made jokes about that type of situation. Yeah,
Baldoni is still lying low. Him and the fam are
in Maui as this continues to unfold.
Speaker 2 (11:10):
Yeah, I don't draw too much out of Ryan's joke
on SNL, Like, right is that it? Do you think
that that's a big deals, bitty.
Speaker 3 (11:19):
Give it out hard, Blake's been going on this. Yeah,
I love the little I uh yeah. And when you
watch the video, I still go back and forth on
whether she was in on this or kind of did
that head snap, Like, No, this is not this is
not the look. This is not the look we need
to be going for here. Britney Spears is speaking about
her own emotional abuse in an Instagram post she put
(11:42):
up yesterday. It is another dancing video, as she has
become known for. But it's interesting with the caption she writes,
being ignored or silenced. It's never been acknowledged as abuse,
even though oh it is. It can be worse than
(12:02):
physical abuse. Serve it back. If I'm a white owl,
they might get serious damage. The kind is how she
ended it. This is very interesting because of course I
had the story yesterday that she is now reuniting with
her ex felon boyfriend Paul Salise. They were seen hanging
out together over Valentine's Day with a lot of fans going.
(12:23):
That didn't end in the greatest way a few months ago.
Are you sure this is a good thing?
Speaker 2 (12:27):
Yeah? I mean, anytime Britney posted it was she dancing
in the video.
Speaker 3 (12:31):
Not really, she was more modeling one of her new outfits.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
Okay, I just anytime Brittany's on Instagram, I think of
it like shower thoughts for everybody else. Like Brittany puts
her wildest stuff on Instagram, I feel.
Speaker 3 (12:42):
Like Finally, Tom Holland, the celebrated actor, is not above
getting carted. But it's weird. He got carted for non
alcoholic beer. So the twenty eight year old took his
fans on a little journey and his Instagram stories yesterday
going to buy a case of his new premium non
alcoholic beer line called Beero that is now on sale
(13:02):
at Target, and he explained that once he got there
be a little bit of an issue.
Speaker 7 (13:08):
They wouldn't accept why ID, because it's English and I
couldn't prove my age.
Speaker 5 (13:13):
Really lovely employee, I guess stand there ID, So.
Speaker 3 (13:17):
I guess even non alcoholic beer may have something as
high as point five of alcohol. So you do need
to get carted. But what people are pointing out is
having someone else scann their ID for you is also illegal.
Speaker 2 (13:31):
Yeah, but now on you're Spider Man. That's the part
that I could figure. I'm like did they not look
at him? Go? Do you not know who that is?
Speaker 6 (13:36):
Right?
Speaker 3 (13:36):
No, dude, I'm honestly look at this the video. If
I saw him target, I'd have no idea. That was
Tom Holland. All right, your celeb scoop with that video
at West Michigan Star dot com.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
There is mister justin Timberlake in town. Last night, of course,
over at van Antel, Lorena Schmidde, did that bring back
some of the vibes where you just dance in your
chair a little bit? There?
Speaker 3 (13:55):
Hold on, you got me up?
Speaker 2 (13:58):
You are up?
Speaker 3 (14:02):
That's what it sounds like live. I took so many
videos at Vanandel last night, justin Timberlake, phenomenal, and I
gotta tell you it really showed me some of my
age because in all honesty, I think I found my people.
And that's what's really really fun about a show like
this because everyone there, I would say ninety eight percent
(14:26):
easily thirty five plus easy thirty five.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
Plus my wife and her sister too.
Speaker 3 (14:31):
Yep, so funny because my girls and I went out
for drinks ahead of time. We went to House of
Wine and our waitress was like, are you guys going
to the show? We were like, how did you know?
And she goes, because you look like you're probably thirty
eight and they're going to She's like, I'd be the
exact same wave. I didn't have to work and I
got there and he opened by saying, dang, it is
(14:51):
so cold here. Why do you guys choose to live here?
And we were like, welcome, and you're gonna be into
Trent in a couple of days. It's not gonna get
any better, Jaz, and then he said, how many of
you have a babysitter tonight? And the entire arena exploded
because it's just all of these firsty moms that are like,
this has finally happened, right. We grew up with Justin
(15:14):
Timberlake in Sync hit the scene when I was probably
in third fourth grade maybe was like the very first
time I remember hearing in Sync And now, like Justin's
a dad and married, you know, he's got two young
kids and he's on this tour and I just remember thinking,
oh my gosh, this is what old people feel like
(15:35):
when their big act hits the casino, Like you know, hey,
Franky Valley's gonna be Ryan, I mean, I said, and
I'm so sorry. Not to say that rudely. I just
realized this, this is the start, and JT still got it.
I mean, it's it was a phenomenal performance. He's still
an incredible dancer and incredible singer. The stage presence, the
(15:59):
entire show was so top notch. But I did think
to myself, one of these days, I am gonna see
Ludicrous at like Soaring Eagle. You know, they're gonna be
that point and I'm starting, this is where we're at.
I remember getting so excited to see Sticks at common
Ground and I'm like, oh my gosh, it's begun. This
(16:20):
is a new phase of life. And I realized it
last night at the JT show.
Speaker 2 (16:23):
I like it when I you know, you see groups
like new Kids on the blogs still out there touring,
and you're like, four out of five of them are
definitely on blood pressure medication.
Speaker 3 (16:32):
Yeah, why they wear pants? You can't see their orthopedic socks.
There's no way. And I don't think it's bad, it's
just different.
Speaker 2 (16:40):
Yeah. It does definitely make you feel some type of way.
For sure. I know that that is exactly what it
was last night because it was my sister in law's
escape from her two young ones, including just a six
month old, and yeah, man, she could not have agreed
to drop everything and get to that concert last night faster.
I think I saw a cloud of smoke leaving her house.
Speaker 3 (17:01):
Basically, well, and how long will it take to recover?
Because I know I've got at least two to three
days before I try and make up for the sleep
I missed last night, but it was so worth it.
And looking around I saw people in og in sinc T.
Speaker 2 (17:14):
Shirts the Canadian tuxedo.
Speaker 3 (17:17):
I didn't any one with the Canadian tuxedo. I don't
know if like that was missed the big VMA carpet moment,
but oh my gosh, it was so good and I
want to play one more because I love suit and tie.
You really and my husband doesn't know this yet unless
he's listening right now, but I did steal his best
(17:38):
tie and that is what I was wearing last night,
Oh Kenny. He also doesn't know that I spilled a
little bit of wine on it, So I'm gonna get
home try clean that, make sure nobody knows anything. Because
justin Chef's kiss, you were so good.
Speaker 2 (17:51):
I love it. They Congrats to all of our start
listeners who went to the show by all means, hit
us out Facebook, Instagram, share those photos and videos with
us at West Michigan Stuff to morn and two it's
back and schmiding on Wednesdays. We own our parenting failures
in a little in Schmidy. There is a reason why
ninety nine percent of us send our children to school
(18:12):
to be taunt by other people, and that's because we
couldn't handle it right like the teachers who the patience
level you have just unbelievable. Thank you for what you do,
because sometimes I try and teach my kids things I
really love to. I'm a motivator. I love to encourage
my kids, but there are some things that you just
should not be the one to teach your kids. And
(18:35):
it's different for everybody, but I have clearly decided skiing
is something that I am not the one to show
my kids how to do. Because we did lessons, but
we hadn't been skiing in two years before this weekend
because there was so much you know, non snow last year,
last winter. This year, completely different story, right snow everywhere.
(18:55):
So we went up to Boyne Mountain. My kids were
kind of excited for a little bit nervous, and I
spend time with both of them on the bunny hill
as we got started, and they were crushing it, my
daughter like she was riding a bike right back on it.
My son a little more apprehensious, but totally fine. The
first time we go up the chairlift, though, Smitty, I'm like,
all right, Bud, you're just gonna put your skis down,
stand up and just let the chairlift do the work, right.
Speaker 3 (19:18):
Yeah, getting off a chairlift is the most stressful part
of steaming.
Speaker 2 (19:21):
Snowboddy Rue is Smitty, and so I am. I am
there with my son and I am just shouting French Fries,
French Fries, French Fries. And he literally sticks his blades
or his skis underneath the lip of the ramp agains
sucked under the chairlift. Terrible. He's screaming at me. I'm like,
(19:42):
it's okay, you know, they stop it all the time,
happens everybody. And he's like, I'm not doing this. I'm
going back to the bunny hill where they have the
magic carpet. So he goes off, and then he goes
with his sister and they go up and down the
chair lift probably twenty times, and He comes to me
afterwards when we go in for hot chocolate, and he's like, Dad,
I'm crushing the chairlift. It's no problem. I'm I'm like, oh,
some buddy, let's go up together next time. And so
(20:04):
we are towards the end of the night, Smitty and
this is the first run right here. Good job, budd
It's all right, it's all right, now go down the hill.
It's okay. Just God sucked under again. So I have
do this thing for basketball the time with my son,
where I say we got to end with a make
(20:26):
we gotta end on a positive note. And so we
go up the chairlift two more times and I am
just trying to have him end with getting off the
chairlift successfully going down the hill. He bombed it the
next three times and goes, I'm done. I'm never skiing again. Dad,
This is it, Like it was over. He could not
do it in front of me.
Speaker 3 (20:44):
Say you never say this is the last run, because
we're very superstitious in the Schmidty fam. And that's either
a chairlift fail or a hospital run.
Speaker 2 (20:56):
Honestly, though, if they would just do the magic carpet
rides for like everything.
Speaker 3 (21:00):
No issues, Oh yeah, you'd get a whole one run the.
Speaker 2 (21:03):
One the one BOYD had had a tunnel around it
too to protect you from the wind, which was cool,
But I thought I was in a Tommy's car wash
for a second.
Speaker 1 (21:10):
I'm just going up this thing, these music and all
the gossip in one place.
Speaker 2 (21:17):
It's the celebrity scoop. On Star one oh five point seven.
Speaker 3 (21:22):
Talking about Some Love, Jason Kelsey says that Taylor Swift
has had a quote staggering impact on Travis Kelsey, revealing
his little bro has grown up quite a bit since
dating the pop star. He had this to say on
the latest episode of the Fits and Wit podcast.
Speaker 8 (21:39):
One of the things I love so much about Travis
is that he never grew up like he was like
Peter Pan, like The Lost.
Speaker 2 (21:47):
Is he growing up now?
Speaker 8 (21:48):
For sure? It's changing, and I think that sometimes, you know,
you get people in your life that maybe get that
out of you, and that's a.
Speaker 2 (21:54):
Good incentivize YouTube get.
Speaker 8 (21:57):
There's no question, Okay, Travo, he is growing up. He
still though, got that youthful enthusiasm. I think he'll kind
of always have that. It's just part of his personality
and I think it's one of the reasons, like every
teammate has ever loved playing with him. Anybody that's ever
met Trav you can't help but just love the guy.
And yeah, he's he's a free spirit in the best
possible way.
Speaker 3 (22:18):
He is a free spirit that Taylor is finally settled with.
I thought it was cute.
Speaker 2 (22:24):
I mean, I think that that happens for a lot
of guys. You meet a person who helps you become
a man, like in all honesty until that, especially if
you're not married, you got no kids, you are just
a big child. That's all right.
Speaker 3 (22:35):
I like that everybody being like, yeah, you finally made
him grow up. I guarantee it's like, oh, you can
put clothes in a hamper now, because that seems to
be so difficult for so many guys.
Speaker 2 (22:45):
I make my own Dennis appointments, all right.
Speaker 3 (22:47):
For our daily show, host Trevor Noah has posed quite
a loaded question that has the Internet talking. Was integration
the right move for America? He discussed the controversial topic
on his podcast What Now. He says, taking all of
the negatives out of the equation, things like racism, oppression,
lack of opportunities at a fundamental level, was integration a
(23:11):
good idea. He talked to Princeton professor Ruja Benjamin and says,
take a look at Finland, for example. He's arguing, it's
kind of good to have everyone pulling in the same
direction under a unified identity.
Speaker 7 (23:25):
There's an idea of like, no, we all hit in
the same direction. We all know what our actions mean.
And that's a really powerful thing I've learned in communicating
with other people. When I'm in a room with anyone
where we start to tie together multiple things. So if
I'm in a room with black people already, there's like
an implicit trust because we know what certain actions, words,
and vibes mean.
Speaker 2 (23:47):
And then you're in a room with another African ah already.
Speaker 7 (23:51):
Now even if you shouts at me, I know what
your shout means, the same way in Italian knows what
an Italian shout means.
Speaker 2 (23:56):
Yeah, right, I know.
Speaker 7 (23:58):
So I'm prefacing it with a lot. Yes, it's a
loaded question, yes, but I would love to know if
you think integration was the right solution. Maybe on the
other side of you know what, America of civil rights.
Speaker 3 (24:11):
Very strong reactions online this morning to that I'm not
I haven't listened to the whole podcast, but it is
a very interesting thing to think about the way he
positions it well.
Speaker 2 (24:22):
And Trevor is South African himself, so I mean he
saw first hand some of the after effects of the
apartheid movement through South Africa, Nelson Mandela coming into power.
Like I'm sure all of that was either before he
was born or just as he was a young person there,
but I'm sure that definitely influenced his views of the world.
Speaker 3 (24:40):
Yeah, you can listen to that entire interview at West
Michigan Star dot com. Finally, Paris Hilton has hit a
parenting milestone. Her two year old son, Phoenix has learned
a naughty word.
Speaker 2 (24:57):
Do you hear that?
Speaker 5 (25:01):
What did you say?
Speaker 3 (25:08):
Yeah? She was trying to catch a very sweet moment
at dinner when Phoenix continued to drop the bomb, and
she says, I feel like every parent will understand this.
I am barely holding it together, and he says it so.
Speaker 2 (25:21):
Clearly I was gonna say, not laughing.
Speaker 3 (25:24):
Yeah, all of you are cilib scoop at West Michigan
Star dot com.
Speaker 2 (25:29):
Starting a fine point seven, It's Mack and Schmidty And
if you've gotten kids that are jamming out with you
in the car every day when they're on their way
to school as you're dropping them off. They gotta go
to this show. SCHMITTI it's a battle of the sexiest
time lending you at some musical funds.
Speaker 3 (25:41):
Yeah, I reached the time where I know more Kids
Bop songs than regular current things on the radio. I
think a lot of you feel the same way. Kids
Bop Live is coming to De Boss Performance Hall. We're
gonna get your family in right now. With the number
one answer today's question. One hundred women surveyed. Name a
type of bell not used for pants.
Speaker 2 (26:02):
I can go ahead and tell you because it always
costs me a bunch of money when it breaks, and
it definitely doesn't hold up my pants. The timing belts
in your vehicle. Have had to replace that a couple
of times in my life. Not fun.
Speaker 3 (26:12):
You know what's great? I have no idea what that is.
And if you don't know what it is, you just
never check it and hope your car is good. Jesus
take the wheel. Six one, six, four, five, eight, one
oh five seven. One hundred women surveyed. Name a type
of belt not used for pants. You've got the number
one answer. And we are sending you to the certified
bop or at the boss with Star Win. Oh five
(26:33):
point seven.
Speaker 2 (26:35):
Good morning, Star. Who's this good?
Speaker 3 (26:37):
This is Wendy.
Speaker 2 (26:38):
Wendy, where are you coming from today? All right, Wendy,
let's see if we can get you into Kids Pop Live.
Just got to tell me when one hundred women were
asked today, I'm on type of belt that's not used
to hold pants up? What do you think their top
answer was, Wendy, Oh, well, you know, when I have
to go.
Speaker 1 (26:54):
Out and fix something in the yard that requires a SPA,
I usually strap online cool.
Speaker 2 (27:00):
Belt, usually strap on your tool belts. You're ready to
get out there? I mean, do you do odd jobs?
Can I just hire you? Because you sound pretty handy?
I'll be honest with you, Weddy, I'm I like it. Well,
you weren't just joking about the top answer, tool belt,
is it? Congrats? Yeah? It was a tool belts, followed
by a conveyor belt, then a karate belt, which I
(27:22):
was really hoping you were going to guess too, Wendy,
only because you were a black belt. I'm sure as well.
But then your seat belts running out those top four answers, Wait.
Speaker 5 (27:31):
To go.
Speaker 2 (27:31):
Thank you, You are welcome. You're going to Kids Bop
Live over at de Vos Performance Hall.
Speaker 9 (27:36):
Thank you.
Speaker 2 (27:36):
It's the Certified Bop Tour. I've never been cool enough
to call a song a bop really before, but I
think there you go for sure. We'll do it all
week long. Your chance to win again tomorrow. Battle of
the Sexes eight fifteen. Here on Startino five point seven. Shaman,
it's he, It's back and SCHMITTI and I'm going to
talk about a little dating and marriage phenomenon Smitty that
I saw on my Facebook yesterday and it honestly had
(28:00):
me doing a double look. Weirded out completely. At a
certain point in your life, everybody's getting married. Another certain
point in your life, everybody seems like they get divorced
when it comes to you know, your wide ranging friends
across your social media platforms. And I'm in that latter
stage right about now. Sadly, and one of my good
couple friends from high school in college, they got divorced
(28:20):
about a year and a half ago, and you know,
went their separate ways, and I'm not super close with
either one of them, but you know, we were at
one time in life and I was bummed that they
broke up. But you know, sometimes you just don't unfriend somebody.
You don't choose a sign, right, it's just your Facebook, never.
Speaker 3 (28:35):
On friend somebody you want to be able to see
all the drama exactly.
Speaker 2 (28:38):
Well, there was no drama, thankfully with these two. But
the girl just wound up getting remarried. And she was
sharing her photos from over the weekends and them getting married,
this destination wedding, and I saw the first photo and go, wait,
did she get married to him again? I literally thought
it was our friend her ex husband got a type.
(29:02):
It's not a type because they look like the most
generic dudes. I mean like greenish brown eyes, sandy color hair,
about five foot ten, I don't know, one hundred and seventy's.
It couldn't be more of an average looking human being.
And yet the facial structure just to a t, the
amount of facial hair, how we catch it just like
(29:23):
her ex husband. How creepy is that? Though? I mean
I could see you have a type, you know, like, oh,
I'm into tall, dark and handsome, block whatever, But when
they look so close together that you feel like you
could be looking at brothers or twins wouldn't that be
a turnoff for you? I'm talking about your ex husband,
my ex.
Speaker 3 (29:41):
Boyfriend, da is someone that looks exactly like me.
Speaker 2 (29:45):
How did that make you feel? Did it make good?
Speaker 3 (29:48):
I was like, yeah, that's right at the best, Ready
for the rest.
Speaker 2 (29:53):
I find it to be like it from that point
of view, maybe a little flattering. I can see it's like, oh,
you know what, I burned myself into his subconscious and
he can never get enough of me.
Speaker 3 (30:05):
Must hurt to half peaked so early, my guys.
Speaker 2 (30:08):
At the same time, I feel like the opportunity to
call someone by the wrong name jumps exponentially. There Schmid
talking about divorce. Yeah, dephlaperdun starting on fine point seven
where it's time to get feeling.
Speaker 5 (30:20):
Dude sometime because I get a good.
Speaker 2 (30:26):
Feeling, Ye, what's happeneding smiddy.
Speaker 3 (30:29):
There were so many cool moments about the Justin Timberlake
show last night at Baniandolt, but this one definitely stood
out to me. It was right towards the beginning of
the show, there was a woman right on the floor
level up against that stage. JT comes out and you
can see that she's caught his eye and he's trying
to read her sign, and it turns out her name
(30:51):
is Valerie and she is at the Justin Timberlake show
at Danandel last night, celebrating with all of her friends
because she beat cancer. Check out this moment.
Speaker 2 (31:02):
You can be cancer.
Speaker 4 (31:03):
You canna have whatever you want.
Speaker 2 (31:07):
What's your name?
Speaker 9 (31:08):
Valerie made some noise for Valerie. Okay, now all you
people are going to be in a Valerie selfie, so
don't get caught looking license chunks you ready have?
Speaker 2 (31:26):
Are we chin?
Speaker 9 (31:26):
Valerie?
Speaker 4 (31:27):
Let's go BLAWAYO three? Here you go see her one
more time for Valerie.
Speaker 3 (31:42):
It's just such a cool moment. She got that selfie
with Justin and man, you could see he was really
moved by it. You know, to celebrate something as big
as beating cancer with one of your idols, it's pretty sweet.
Speaker 2 (31:55):
That is unbelievable. It's so cool to you stop the
show to do that. Thatsome moment, for sure, Schmidia. Mine
is actually also about Justin Timberlake concert, Schmitty, but it
is not about last night's concert. I didn't tell you that.
My wife and her sister went last night. They had
a blast. But that was not the first JT show
that they went to. And I actually talked about this
(32:15):
when we were giving away some of the tickets about
how my wife and her sister were on the floor
one time and they got to be so close to
Justin Timberlake when he came out into the middle of
the audience, sort of like he did last night, where
they could they were so close they could almost touch it.
What I had completely forgotten about that, Schmitty, was that
you made that happen. Do you remember that?
Speaker 5 (32:35):
No.
Speaker 2 (32:36):
My wife reminded me of this last night, and I
wanted to bring it up to you today because I
think it's the funniest thing. You gave Michelle your tickets
April fourth at Van anddel for the twenty nineteen show
for justin Timberlake. You had floor tickets, but you had
young ones at all two yeah, and for whatever reason
(32:59):
you couldn't Oh yeah. And I'd completely forgotten about this.
My wife told it, tells me last night and she goes,
oh my god, nothing will ever talk. And you know
they're talking about how sid of there. She goes, nothing
will ever top And she goes, do you know that
Schmitty was the one who gave me her tickets for
that show. Yeah, you ran out of your house because
you didn't want my wife coming inside your house at
the time. I don't think it was at your old
house obviously before, but you ran out of your house
(33:20):
to give her the tickets in the car before going.
You led to one of the best moments of her life,
with her and her sister getting to share in that
time as justin Timberlake serenaded them literally right above them.
Speaker 3 (33:35):
I do remember running out to the car because I
didn't wanted to miss a moment of catching like a
good floor spot. I was like, get down there.
Speaker 2 (33:42):
But she brought that up last night and just what
an incredible moment and her life it was musically and
just you know how she got to relive this guy
that's been on her celebrity list forever. But that was
all because of you. And I told Michelle Goes, oh,
I'm sure she probably hates that she gave me those tickets,
And I said, one hundred percent, she does not remember.
I got we coming across Stas all the time. I
(34:02):
got one thousand percent. Schmitty has forgotten all about this,
So I wanted to remind you of that today. And
Sharon Giant, thank you for Michelle and her sister for that.
Speaker 3 (34:09):
Yeah, that would have still been within the first year
of well being born, so I don't remember anything so giant.
Speaker 2 (34:16):
Thank you again. You made her feel good and years
later she still feels good.
Speaker 3 (34:20):
I'm glad she got to go again last night. It
was a great show.
Speaker 2 (34:23):
I didn't want to wash your eyeballs ever again. Out
of that one, for sure, I feel like good coming
at you a couple of times a day. Let's do
it tomorrow. Bring that positivity for you. At six forty
five and nine twenty you're on Star Mack and Schmidty
in the morning weekday starting at six am on Star
one oh five point seven
