Good morning, Schmitty, Way, good morning. Welcome into your Tuesday. Yes,
our holiday week with fourth of July on deck for
friend h Smitty. I know you, like so many people
out there, getting ready to take that big road trip.
Oh yes, are you feeling at this moment in time,
just just complete honesty? Are you feeling more anxious or
more excited?
Speaker 5 (00:33):
I don't set an alarm for three am for the
next six days?
Speaker 2 (00:37):
You tell me?
Speaker 5 (00:39):
Yeah, I'm just still There is nothing I have planned
except sleeping in.
Speaker 2 (00:43):
Quite honestly, that's so fair.
Speaker 4 (00:46):
How you gearing up? Youre gearing up for that drive today?
You guys are headed out right. We're leaving at ten am,
ten a m. And second I'm off the air.
Speaker 2 (00:53):
How long is the drive? Seven six somewhere in there.
You know it's really going to depend.
Speaker 5 (00:57):
I don't know if you've already left for up north
give me an I know one thirty one northbound. We're
hoping won't be too bad a little bit later on
this morning, but I'm not sure on bridge traffic. The
bridge is still under construction, so it's down a couple
of lanes. So we're just we're just gonna do our
best to get there.
Speaker 4 (01:12):
You know, last night, Tividi, I was actually thinking about
you road tripping up there because I went to go
visit it with my aunt and uncle who are visiting
from Florida sort of.
Speaker 2 (01:20):
My aunt just retired.
Speaker 4 (01:21):
She's almost gonna be seventy years old, and right now
they have sold their home in Florida and they are
driving the country in an RV. Oh yeah, they're actually
over in Ionia right now in an Austin RV park
over there. We just went over there with the kids
and there was pools and bounce houses and all sorts
of crazy stuff. But they are living the RV life
(01:41):
for at least this entire summer, and it goes from
here to northern Michigan to the Up, all the way
up and around down through Wisconsin. They've got family there
before they head west all so they can end up
and back in Florida in the same town as their daughter.
Speaker 2 (01:56):
This fall.
Speaker 5 (01:57):
Yeah, my best friend's parents are rving in Texas right now.
I've been arving the last two years of their retirement.
Speaker 2 (02:02):
It doesn't sound terrible. I'll be honest with you, lie
again if I'm not setting an alarm.
Speaker 6 (02:05):
Let's do this movies, music, and all the gossip in
one place.
Speaker 3 (02:10):
It's the celebritiescoop on Star one oh five point seven.
Speaker 5 (02:14):
Well, let's start by squashing the rumors that Lady Gaga
and Elton John both demanded a huge pile of money
to perform at the wedding of Jeff Bezos and Lauren
Sanchez over the weekend, and Bezos turned it down.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
Just not true.
Speaker 5 (02:28):
There have been rumors circulating that the Venice Mega Wedding
actually invited both superstars to be a part of the entertainment,
and both Lady Gaga and Elton John individually demanded six
million dollars to perform for the two hundred guest list.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
Not true.
Speaker 5 (02:46):
In fact, Insider say the story is laughable. Neither Elton
nor Gaga were even approached to play the wedding, let
alone demands such a massive fee. As for the entertainment
that did take place, singer Ellie Goulding performed four or
five songs, and then Andrea Bocellis Mateo sing as well.
Speaker 4 (03:01):
I think I didn't realize that Andre Bocelli even had
his son until I saw that he was performing at
his weddings.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
Many.
Speaker 5 (03:07):
Yeah, did you see the Kim Kardashian TikTok where it
was like she got married in Venice, I got married
in Venis. She has an adult chane aabana gown. She
has adult cabana gown. Did you see that Andrea Bocelli
sang at my wedding Andrea Bocelli's son singing hers. Yeah, no,
it's from the Kardashian episode where she's going after Courtney.
But yeah, it's really similar to Kim's wedding. Nelly and
(03:29):
Ashanti have quite the conversation starting online about parental responsibility.
So the pair of a reality show called Nelly and
Ashanti We Belong Together, which just debuted on Peacock, and
fans were really given some insight into how the parents
parent their newborn baby boy, mostly that Nelly does absolutely nothing.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
He said.
Speaker 5 (03:52):
I was very upfront with a Shanzi. I said, once
he can walk and talk, he'll be in the crew.
But I ain't feeding him. I waken up and I'm
not changing diapers something that you can hear. Ashanti really
annoyed with I'm.
Speaker 4 (04:04):
Trying to understand.
Speaker 3 (04:05):
How is it that you used to sleep through when
he saw us crying?
Speaker 7 (04:09):
Do you overnight?
Speaker 4 (04:11):
You know what, it's absolutely.
Speaker 2 (04:13):
Ridiculous that you'll still be dead sleep and he'll be
mad loud but I don't even hear y'all.
Speaker 4 (04:20):
That's ridiculous.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
It's a gift. I guess why is that a gift?
Speaker 7 (04:25):
I'm blessed with that.
Speaker 2 (04:27):
No, that means get up, and you're starting to change him.
I said, baby, I need you the world.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
I just ain't changing him.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
Naturally. A lot of people online said, are you kidding me?
Speaker 5 (04:41):
One social media user writing, Nelly hasn't had a hit
in twenty years.
Speaker 2 (04:46):
You're not even booked.
Speaker 5 (04:47):
Ashanti's had appearance after appearance since giving birth. Get your
lazy butt up and help that woman that you were
so thirsty to run down.
Speaker 4 (04:55):
Huh, Or be smarter, Nelly and shut up. A tour
that doesn't go that goes down stopping. I think he
is around this shummer. But yeah, just Y said the
quiet part out loud, even if you're sneaking by trying
to get away with that you.
Speaker 5 (05:07):
Yeah, one chad that he needs to be thrown into
an active volcano. So there was a lot of strong
feelings from parents on that finally what a throwback.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
EA sports back in the game.
Speaker 5 (05:19):
Electronic Arts making a big announcement yesterday They're bringing back
EA College Basketball. My brothers were obsessed with this video game,
and a post on X they wrote, bring the madness,
let's run it back. It has been sixteen years since
they put out their last game. It actually featured Oklahoma
Sooners star Blake Griffin at the time on the cover.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
Back in two thousand and nine.
Speaker 5 (05:44):
They said one of the main reasons for the long
wait licensing of player's likenesses took quite a while, but
they saw an opportunity to make a triumphant return and
are ready now.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
You gotta wait a bit, though.
Speaker 5 (05:54):
The company said it's probably gonna see a twenty twenty
eight return, so it's still got a couple of years
just in.
Speaker 4 (06:00):
To see how they do it with all of the
college athletes. It'll be involved if they do it like football,
where it's like, hey, everybody gets everybody gets seven hundred
dollars in a new PlayStation five or something and you
get to be in the game.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
Yeah, we'll see.
Speaker 5 (06:12):
Because EA College Football came back last year, so I
wonder if it'll follow a similar line all of your
celeb scoop at West Michigan Star dot com.
Speaker 2 (06:19):
It's telling a fine points seven.
Speaker 4 (06:20):
It's Mack and SCHMITTI look at it gets you a
feeling good as we roll into the holiday week and
your Tuesday morning. And but it was over the weekends
that this video went absolutely wild. Schmidty of a father
who had to jump into the ocean to save his
young daughter after she fell from the fourth story of
a Disney Dream Cruise ship as it sailed from the
Bahamas to Fort Lauderdale. Now, the incident was on the
(06:42):
final leg of a four nine Bohemian cruise, and passengers
wants the whole thing unfold as the father jumped in
to go and rescue the daughter, while rescuers, I'm sure
scrambling to make sure they can catch up. Witnesses describing
this hen seen as they had unfolded before their eyes.
Speaker 1 (07:03):
All the music stopped and then out it came on.
It sounded like mister Mob, but it might have been
mister MOB, which stands for man overboard. He couldn't get
to the life preservers because he was holding on to
his daughter. The ship was moving quickly, so quickly. It's
crazy how quickly the people became tiny dots, and seeing
that you lost sight of them, and the captain slowed
(07:23):
the ship.
Speaker 4 (07:24):
Turn it around, yeah, turn it around, so rescuers could
work as quickly as they could to get to the
man who was holding on to his daughter, as described
right there, treading water in very very choppy and rough seas,
making it very difficult. I mean, when you hear stories
about people falling off a cruise ships.
Speaker 2 (07:40):
Very rarely does it end well.
Speaker 4 (07:41):
But they were able to get to him and the
little girl and pull him back on board as people
were standing by praying for a safe conclusion.
Speaker 3 (07:51):
Oh my god, crank you Jesus.
Speaker 4 (07:57):
He As the boat pulled down up, crowds gathered to
cheer them on, and people just talking about how incredible
that dad's efforts were.
Speaker 2 (08:09):
I am not a swimmer. I don't know if I
could do that or not.
Speaker 7 (08:12):
Probably not I would ground that was a very heroory,
you know thing many did.
Speaker 4 (08:18):
Why couldn't you know? It feels like something any parent
would do. But that is a absolutely wild, dangerous situation,
and you're just so yeah.
Speaker 2 (08:26):
There's so much here. First of all, it's on the
cruise ship.
Speaker 6 (08:28):
Right.
Speaker 5 (08:29):
They're not anywhere near shore, so this cruise ship had
to turn itself entirely around to launch the rescue boat.
It's a four story fall for this girl and her dad,
twenty minutes in rough water. I mean, this is a
wild story, you guys. The video is unbelievable. I know
Disney is now investigating because they have plexiglass barriers.
Speaker 2 (08:47):
Yeah, they're not. No idea how she went?
Speaker 4 (08:49):
Lord, Yeah, it is absolutely nuts. We'll put the video
and the story up for West Michigan.
Speaker 2 (08:54):
Start dot com. All right, let's get to t Rex racing. Okay.
I don't know if you are aware this is a thing.
Speaker 5 (08:59):
But this is my official bid for West Michigan to
somehow do this. Emerald Downs is in Auburn, Washington, mostly
known for horse racing, but once a year it hosts
the annual t Rex World Championship races. And those went
down on Sunday, and I'm telling you this is legit.
These are people in those giant inflatable t Rex costumes
(09:20):
that begin the race by skydiving.
Speaker 7 (09:22):
Here they come skydiving t Rex from Cisco on the mark.
About a nice round of applause for our skydiving dinos.
Speaker 2 (09:32):
That's how they begin. Then they line up and the races.
Speaker 7 (09:36):
On, and Tea Rex is away and they all came
away to a beautiful start. And we've got several fighting
it out at the inside, but a blue t Rex
home in front to win the championship for the ladies.
Speaker 5 (09:51):
I cannot describe it to you, so just follow us
on Instagram so I can put this video up and
you can see how absolutely fabulous the World Championships of
t Rex Racing are. What a time to be alive
in America.
Speaker 2 (10:07):
I gotta be honest with you.
Speaker 4 (10:07):
I not only would I love to compete in something
stupid like this, but I wonder how much that announcer
gets paid, because I feel like I could move in
and sneak in on that job you over there with.
Speaker 5 (10:16):
A one percent volunteer because you get the experience of
talking about inflatable t Rex racing.
Speaker 4 (10:23):
Long list of people waiting to broadcast the t Rex races.
Speaker 6 (10:27):
That's awesome, movies, music, and all the gossip in one place.
Speaker 3 (10:31):
It's the celebritiescoop on Star one oh five point seven.
Speaker 5 (10:35):
Well, the big news for Detroit Professional Women's basketball finally
returning to the Motor City.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
Detroit receives a w NBA expansion team in twenty twenty nine,
the league announcing this yesterday. This is really cool.
Speaker 5 (10:49):
The yet to be named team revives a legacy that
was originally started by the Detroit Shop. They won three
championships as one of the initial WNBA's ex franchises from
ninety nine to two thousand and eight. But it is
the star power behind this that has me really excited.
Piston's owner Tom Gores, backed by a large team of
(11:10):
high profile investors that include Shila Ford hamp quarterback for
the Lions, Jared Goff, former Piston Grant Hill, and Chris
Webber and rapper eminem all have been on board for
this for years. This is super exciting. Two other cities
also announced, Cleveland receiving a franchise in twenty twenty eight
(11:31):
and Philadelphia in twenty thirty two. New teams four next year,
Portland and Toronto. So this thing is growing massively and
it will be super sweet to finally see Detroit back
in the WNBA sphere.
Speaker 2 (11:45):
Okay, so we get the team in twenty twenty nine.
Speaker 4 (11:47):
Right, twenty twenty nine, So I've you got roughly four
years to figure out what we gotta do to trade
for Caitlin Clark right off the bat and bring her
to Drouchal.
Speaker 2 (11:55):
Or see the next Caitlan Clark. There's someone in high school.
Speaker 5 (11:57):
Right now that I mean Rockford has wycheck missus basketball.
So I'm telling you Ditty, and the deliberations already looking
at some drama. So of course it's now in the
hands of the jurors as of yesterday morning, but a
dramatic development as the jury began deliberating, a note was
sent to the by the jury to the judge within
(12:20):
about an hour of the deliberations beginning, so this was
about one fifteen yesterday afternoon. The judge announced he had
received a note, and the jury four person said, we
have a juror Juror twenty five who we believe cannot
follow your honor's instructions, and the four person wanted to
meet with the judge about this. Ditty and his lawyers
were huddled in the courtroom for the announcement. It's interesting,
(12:44):
his defense attorney suggested, telling the jury it's still early
in the process. They're just getting started, while the prosecuting
attorney suggested instructing jurors that it's important not to include
any info about what is going on in the jury rooms.
They were trying to keep the secret, while the defense
he wanted to know what was going on. Thirty minutes later,
the judge sent a note back to the jury reminding
(13:04):
them of their obligation to follow his instructions on the
law nothing else until the jury to continue to deliberate.
Speaker 4 (13:13):
My question for you is, Schmiddy, how did you take
this news? Because in my head, what I heard was
that there was a juror that was going like, I
don't care, I don't care. I already know, I already
know one way or another. I just felt like there
was a person who was unwilling to engage in debate
because they had already made up their mind. And I
honestly feel like that's probably making the defense salivated the mouth.
Speaker 5 (13:35):
Though I won't say if it's defense or prosecution, though
I will say I think somebody probably did go in.
They do know jur twenty five is a fifty one
year old white man with a PhD in molecular biology. Yes,
I don't know how we know that, but we do.
So they are back deliberating again this morning.
Speaker 2 (13:54):
I can't talk with you peasants some way too smartly
right right.
Speaker 5 (13:58):
And finally, legendary Robert de Niro at eighty one years old,
I doubt found whatever. I found himself hanging out with
the Wiggles. Yes, the iconic Australian children's group took to
their Instagram to share a backstage clip before their show
in New York over the weekend, showing Robert de Niro
(14:19):
and his two year.
Speaker 2 (14:20):
Old daughter meeting and greeting with the Wiggles. It's so cute.
Speaker 5 (14:40):
Robert has said in past interviews he's a pretty big
fan of the Wiggles and was definitely there to impress
his youngest daughter, Gia.
Speaker 4 (14:48):
You know, I can't see Jimmy from Goodfellas hanging out.
Speaker 5 (14:51):
With Yes, singing along to the ukulele, had his Twinkle
Twinkle Little Star on. I've got the video for you
with your scoop at West Michigan startup.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
Morning to you.
Speaker 4 (15:02):
It's Mack and Schmidty as we year up for maybe
some Fourth of July trips, or maybe you're just taking
your summer vacations here. Pretty soon we got to talk
about those secret spots finning.
Speaker 2 (15:11):
We're so lucky.
Speaker 5 (15:12):
I feel like we are so lucky to be in
Michigan because it is stunning. We have so much water,
we have so much beach, we have a lot of
woods and trails, and we're headed to the Up to
see family this week. We usually do one, maybe two
bigger trips up north. And I'm always absolutely stunned when
I say that to people and they go, oh, I've.
Speaker 2 (15:30):
Never been north of Gaylord.
Speaker 5 (15:32):
There are so many people that have never crossed the
Mackinaw Bridge and I try that wild.
Speaker 4 (15:36):
That's where the Michigan State Police post last post is,
so I mean, like, you gotta go past that, it's
the wilderness.
Speaker 2 (15:41):
After that, I think we have. We have cops in
the UP. Cops, yes, the last state police. There's no
state police post in the UP.
Speaker 4 (15:49):
I believe, unless it was built in the last fifteen years.
But that was always the last.
Speaker 5 (15:53):
State they got border patrol. They don't have state police
in the UP. So here's the deal. I thought it
would be so much fun, as especially with this being
a vacation week, to talk about your hidden gem spots
across Michigan, but specifically I wanted to talk to the
up because so many people have never been there and
it really is so stunning, and so one of my
other shows we actually talked with Nick Nurban.
Speaker 2 (16:15):
He is so fantastic.
Speaker 5 (16:16):
He's the media and digital director for Travel Michigan, so
he goes everywhere to research for his job, and he
has three really great spots he calls hidden gems. If
you've never checked the mouth, these are all in the
up if.
Speaker 8 (16:27):
You look at the each and upper peninsula of One
of the things I always recommend is get head of
the Tuamenon Falls. For example, there's a little place just
a few minutes off of I seventy five when you're
headed on one twenty three coped King with fish market
and also a lot of folks visit miners Castle and
beautiful tent stone formations with the book pictured.
Speaker 7 (16:43):
Rock book tours.
Speaker 8 (16:44):
Along the Munising area and the other end of the
lake shore is the Grand Moray area, and they've got
the Grand Stable Doom. These things are almost on the
scale of Sleeping Bear Doom and they're in the up.
We went on a Iron Mountain min tour. You go
into this rock mountain, ma you get on the mine
and it got our hard hats the whole nine yards
and it's amazing to see to build this pearls through
(17:05):
the rocks. It took them three years because they did
it by hand. So yes, so you're learning in some
of the history of the UP.
Speaker 5 (17:12):
So those are really cool spots. I've actually never done
one of the mountain tours. I've heard great things. If
you're up near Copper Harbor.
Speaker 4 (17:18):
I'm imagined writing in one of those, like yeah, and
like one of the carts on a track that you
see in cartoons and movies and everything else into the mountains, And.
Speaker 2 (17:25):
That's what it is.
Speaker 5 (17:26):
They did this in the eighteen hundreds by pickaxe for
three years. It took them to do and so much
of the up is like that. And I posted this
on our Facebook and I said, what is your secret
hidden spot? And I'm not downing it. I see you
know a lot of people Beaver Island, Mackinaw Island, Luddington
and Hamlin Lake, Glen Arbor.
Speaker 2 (17:44):
I respect all that. I love those. They're stunning, stunning spots.
Speaker 5 (17:48):
But I want the stuff that we haven't heard of,
like right here in West Michigan. Sarah wrote Lucy's and
Lucy's Backyard, it's in Grand Haven. She said, live music,
the best food and drinks on the lake shore. Incredible
outdoor area. I've never heard of that spot.
Speaker 4 (18:02):
I have not either, Schmidty. If you I'm gonna I'll
give you two. I'll give you one here in West
Michigan that a lot of people know about. But every
time I mentioned it, somebody says, no Duck Lake north
of Miskeigan.
Speaker 2 (18:13):
Duck Lake.
Speaker 4 (18:14):
If you've got young kids but you want to be
out on Lake Michigan, go there. The lake is literally
connected to Lake Michigan. That offers like a three foot
deep kiddie pool that's like ten degrees warmer at all
times than the water and you can actually keep an
eye on your kids without them being in any type
of rip current or big waves or anything too really good.
But if I was talking secret spot Smitty and I
(18:34):
wanted to go up north a little bit, you don't
have to go to the up but it is it
is an interesting spot. The largest waterfalls in the Lower Peninsula,
and the biggest is called Akiak Falls and it is
just a bright around Roger City. Okay, this is the
not only the privately owned waterfall in the in the
(18:55):
state of Michigan. This is the only universally accessible waterfall
in the entire country. It has got all these incredible
hiking pass and everything else that go out there. Schmiddy
and uh. It's all cement so people of any kind
of ability can get to it.
Speaker 2 (19:11):
It's really cool, all right.
Speaker 5 (19:12):
So what would be your secret spot? Six one, six,
four five eight one oh five seven. I would love
to know the places that you grew up going to
Bond Falls. I've never heard of that Preskuyle Falls. That's stunning.
The Porky Mountains. One person brought those up. The Porky's
are absolutely show stopping.
Speaker 4 (19:32):
Speech us coming to you when I go to the
up because you feel like an expert all things up?
Speaker 5 (19:36):
Oh gosh, Well really quick though, I will warn you
if you're going to try to speed. There are state
police posts in the Upper Peninsula. In fact, the specific
eighth District encompasses the entire Upper place.
Speaker 4 (19:48):
Is there is there a back at all? The bridge
and the bridge and galer that's all?
Speaker 5 (19:53):
Maybe that SA sayt Iigna's Gladstone Iron Mountain ray.
Speaker 2 (19:57):
So watch yourselves, don't listen to MA. Go over here.
Speaker 6 (20:00):
This is one top to them Smitty's so salty like.
Speaker 4 (20:05):
The rim of a proper margarita. Yes, doused, insult but
able to shed it each and every week as we
give the vent session salty Schmitty, what has got too
salty before?
Speaker 2 (20:15):
Bak. I'll tell you I think we're being lied to.
I don't think people like fireworks. Ah, you're wrong, I don't.
I love it. So here's the deal, guys.
Speaker 5 (20:22):
I have been watching social media for the last few
nights because here we go, right, we're in technically not
the legal zone for the record, but everybody neighborhoods, beaches,
if you're at your cabin, they're shooting up fireworks. And
I will tell you I've not seen a single post
from someone that's like, ah, thank you so much to.
Speaker 2 (20:40):
My neighbor for shooting them off at midnight. This is magical.
Speaker 5 (20:43):
And I just think there is some kind of giant
conspiracy for firework companies.
Speaker 2 (20:48):
Not that I get it.
Speaker 5 (20:50):
Your businesses, you're entrepreneurs, you're gonna make gonna make your money.
Speaker 2 (20:53):
But there is no way I look this up.
Speaker 5 (20:55):
Seventy to seventy five percent of people report liking or
loving firework. It's only twenty percent expressing dislike or hatred.
I don't think that's true. I think at least fifty
fifty and I think I'm sorry, I'll be that parent
that if you have kids or dogs and not enough transdone,
it is not an enjoyable experience.
Speaker 3 (21:16):
Shitty.
Speaker 2 (21:17):
So Stalky.
Speaker 6 (21:21):
Eads music and all the gossip in one place.
Speaker 3 (21:24):
It's the celebritiescoop on Star one oh five point seven.
Speaker 2 (21:28):
Leno and Rosie O'Donnell says it.
Speaker 5 (21:31):
It's gonna be pretty laced with some interesting burbage. The
latest celebrity letting the world know what she really thinks
about the wedding of Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos and his
now wife Lauren Sanchez, throwing in quite a few shady shots,
especially about Lauren's looks. So Rosie took to Instagram yesterday
(21:51):
with a V four and after picture of Lauren, calling
her Jeff's fake fembot wife. She goes it turned my
stomach seeing all these billionaires gathering in the gross success
of it all, the show of it is Oprah really
friends with Jeff Bezos. Really, he treats his employees with
disdain by any metric. He's not a nice man, and
(22:13):
his fake bembot wife who looks like that? Why would
he choose her? After the salt of the Earth Mackenzie.
She went on to say he definitely sold his soul
and the devil is smiling. At the same time, she
also said to read the rest subscribe to me on substacks.
Of course, all right, I liked the fake membo wipe.
(22:33):
I just thought that was kind of funny.
Speaker 4 (22:34):
The fake mbot was funny. My question was how long
ago was that picture of the first picture of Laurence Sanchez?
Speaker 2 (22:40):
Take it?
Speaker 4 (22:40):
Because I almost felt bad. I'm like, if you're using
something from fifteen twenty years ago, that's super rude. If
that was five years ago, yeah, holy cow, what did
you do?
Speaker 2 (22:49):
I do think it's fairly recent.
Speaker 4 (22:51):
That's insanity and honestly that that doesn't look healthy in
any type of ways.
Speaker 2 (22:56):
A lot of surgeons out there.
Speaker 5 (22:57):
Yeah, singer post Malone on the market because he is
no longer in a relationship with Christy Lee News just drop.
The couple formally called it quits a little under a
month ago. They've been together romantically since at least the
start of the year. Unclear what happened or if the
pair is still on friendly terms. But a lot of
fans are wondering if this just has to do with
(23:18):
the fact that Post is putting so much time, effort,
and energy into the custody battle.
Speaker 2 (23:22):
He is still waging with his ex over his child,
so they are no longer together.
Speaker 5 (23:29):
You'll remember that his former ex called off their engagement
towards the end of twenty twenty four, and then he
picked up with this Christie woman pretty quickly, but no
longer thing. Finally, let's get to the breaking news yesterday
about Brian Coberger. So. Coburger is the one charged with
four counts of first degree murder one count of felony
burglary in connection with those murders of the four University
(23:52):
of Idaho's students back in November of twenty twenty two.
He was indicted in May of twenty three, put in
a not guilty plea, and his trial was supposed to
start next month. It was an absolute shock yesterday when
the victims' families were first told he has accepted a
(24:12):
plea agreement. He's going to enter guilty on all charges,
which means he would be sentenced most likely to four
consecutive life sentences and up to ten years on the
burglary charge, but he will not face the death penalty.
This was definitely a shock to the family as well.
One of those victims is Kayleie Gonkalve's and her family
(24:34):
issuing a statement on social media, writing.
Speaker 2 (24:37):
It's true.
Speaker 5 (24:38):
We are beyond furious at the State of Idaho. They
have failed us. Please give us some time. This was
very unexpected. We appreciate all your love and support. It's
being reported by multiple outlets that all of the family
members feel the exact same way. How dare you This
man is a monster and this is not serving us
justice for our children whatsoever.
Speaker 4 (25:00):
You know, it's sad to see the family so upset
about this. The only thing that I would think would
be more upsetting was getting to trial and then for
some technicality or for some other reason that the jury
just doesn't fully buy the prosecution story, or some doubt
enters that they don't get any justice. This guy's going
to go away in a cement box for the rest
of his life.
Speaker 3 (25:19):
I don't know.
Speaker 5 (25:20):
I can't comment. I would never even be able to
fathom what it's like to be in this position. All
of your celebscoop at West Michigan Star.
Speaker 4 (25:27):
Dot Com the Battle of the Sexiest Time looking to
land you at a Jim Gaffigan show coming up this month,
because yes, we are in July. There's a reminder there,
guys that I feel like this question schmiddy could lead
to an entire Jim Gaffigan style bit.
Speaker 5 (25:40):
All right, so it's July seventeenth at Vanandel It's his
Everything Is Wonderful Tour. One hundred men surveyed, what age
do you think young people have it all figured out?
Speaker 4 (25:49):
But for your age, you think it is. Go ahead
and subtract at least two years off of that.
Speaker 2 (25:53):
Gotta be.
Speaker 5 (25:54):
I don't know if I've ever felt that way. I
didn't have the invincibility as a twenty one year old.
I knew I was dumb.
Speaker 4 (26:00):
I felt less and less invincible every year after the
age of twenty five. Yeah, that's when I realized how
dumb I really am.
Speaker 2 (26:07):
All right, here we go.
Speaker 5 (26:08):
One hundred men surveyed, what age do young people think
they have it all figured out?
Speaker 2 (26:13):
Six?
Speaker 5 (26:13):
One six, four five eight, one oh five seven collar seven.
You've got the number one answer. You're going to see
Jim Gaffigan at Vanandel with Star one oh five point seven,
Good morning star.
Speaker 2 (26:24):
Who's this?
Speaker 8 (26:25):
I got it?
Speaker 2 (26:26):
Calb John, I'm sorry, what's your name?
Speaker 6 (26:28):
Caleb?
Speaker 2 (26:29):
Caleb?
Speaker 4 (26:30):
Who else was trying to call at the same time? Caleb,
it's okay, I don't know. Yeah, you're here. Can you
hear me?
Speaker 2 (26:35):
Okay? Caleb?
Speaker 4 (26:36):
Who else was trying to call it the same time
as you? I heard you in the background, h John?
Speaker 2 (26:40):
Nice? Nice?
Speaker 7 (26:41):
Well.
Speaker 2 (26:41):
Teamwork makes the dream work.
Speaker 4 (26:42):
Guys. Hopefully together you can come up with the right
answer in these Jim Gaffigan tickets. Okay, one hundred guys.
Caleb were asked to tell me at what age young
people think they have it all figured out?
Speaker 2 (26:54):
What do you think? The top answer is Caleb sixteen sixteen?
How old are you? Caleb, Oh, fourteen.
Speaker 4 (27:00):
You are fourteen years old, so you don't quite have
it all figured out yet. No, that's because you don't
have a driver's license yet. I mean, even if you're sixteen,
you definitely probably won't know how to drive a stick
at that point, so you don't quite have it all
figured out. Everything else though, Yeah, you'll get there. Caleb,
sixteen is the top answer. You guys have got just
having tickets? Yes, thank you, Congratulations.
Speaker 8 (27:24):
I'm heading to my mom.
Speaker 4 (27:26):
Oh, well, perfect mom. By the way, your fourteen year
old son, Caleb, you said Jen's your name.
Speaker 2 (27:33):
Yes, I am Jen Jen.
Speaker 4 (27:35):
Caleb crushed it. He got the right answer at sixteen.
I just wanted to tell you that the second most
common answer was fourteen. And now, after just crushing Battle
of the sexes, I'm pretty sure your fourteen year old
thinks he's got it all figured out.
Speaker 5 (27:48):
He is freaking out right.
Speaker 4 (27:51):
Sixteen, fourteen, eighteen, and thirteen, rounding out those top answers
for when you thought you had it all figured out
and then we all got older, didn't realized we had
nothing figured out. But you guys are going to Jim
gaff again. July seventeenth.
Speaker 2 (28:06):
Congrats, thank you so much. Good morning to you.
Speaker 4 (28:12):
It's Mack and Schmiddy and I almost brought in a
third person to be in the studio with us. Should
say person I was going to, but I'm gonna be
here for a while today. I got some meetings this afternoon.
I didn't want to do it to my new dog, Juno.
We did keep the name Juno, which I know is
the one you were preferring. Yeah, I like Juno. It's
growing on me for sure. But yes, we got to
do Australian Shepherd Juno to go along with my dog Ace,
(28:35):
who's an Australian Shepherd border College. There is a lot
of energy in my house. But you when I just
mentioned this a second ago, what the worst part of
getting a new dog is, especially a puppy, because it's
not all just the best parts. There's the worst parts too.
You said the word new born. Yeah, yeah, that is
exactly what my wife would say, and that is probably
(28:57):
that's her least favorite part, and that is the waking
up early in the morning because this puppy is only
four months old, so I let it out at about
four thirty in the morning before I take off, and
then the puppies up by six fifteen, And so every
day for the last two weeks since we got her,
somebody's got to be up to let her out of
(29:18):
her crate and get her outside immediately, which brings me
to my least favorite.
Speaker 2 (29:24):
Part of the new dock accidents. Yeah, four months not
fully trained yet, Smitty, And I'm.
Speaker 5 (29:29):
Actually I was gonna say, you guys are getting good sleep.
Then when we got our puppy, Puppy light twelve weeks,
we were going out every two hours.
Speaker 2 (29:35):
Yeah, well that's how about how old Ace was? We
got to mean? Yeah, that was that was real? That
was real. Woll what's the worst?
Speaker 4 (29:39):
The accident aspect for us, though, is tough because the
dog's like ninety percent house broken at this point. But
when does she have accidents? When she gets super excited?
So in the morning when I let her out in
the dark. Right, I'm in the dark in my living
room and I'm trying to do everything silently. I cannot
acknowledge her in the morning when I let her out,
(30:00):
or it's an instant pe all.
Speaker 2 (30:02):
That's what you're supposed to do for puppies.
Speaker 5 (30:04):
And when you have guests over and they're jumping around,
you're not supposed to do anything or give them attention
until they call them themselves down.
Speaker 4 (30:11):
It's super funny that you say that too, because my kids,
we're trying to do everything we can to train this
pupp yeah, perfectly, And so my kids never listen to me.
They don't believe anything I say, Like I feel most
parents would feel that way. Well, I went to chat
GBT Smitty and I had that layout a strategy for
housebreaking A four month old puppy and like step by
(30:32):
steph and I gave it to the kids. So now
they're all on board. They've got all the little tricks
and tips that they went for. It's all the same
stuff their mom and I were telling them. But it
doesn't matter because it came from Ai, and Ai is
infinitely smarter than your dad could ever be.
Speaker 5 (30:44):
You're gonna get it all good to go until you
have a massive amount of family over this Fourth of July,
and it's gonna undo everything.
Speaker 4 (30:52):
There's two dogs coming in addition to my actually three
dogs coming in addition to it. It's gonna get wild.
But I asked this on Facebook and you guys had
some good faces. Taz is the dog of Chris and
the chewing stage. My last dog Ace his chewing stage
cost us. I'm not kidding. I'm not being facetious. At
least fifteen plus pairs of sandals.
Speaker 5 (31:14):
Oh see, First, Taz did Chris's truck. He chewed the
seats in his truck, which I feel like is really
top not truck.
Speaker 2 (31:22):
Yeah, the uh.
Speaker 4 (31:23):
I gotta come back to the accidents because I'm getting
called out because my dog did have one in the
house where it like pooped in a corner.
Speaker 2 (31:29):
Then took the poop in its mouth.
Speaker 4 (31:31):
Smitty, that same super cute mouth that it wants to
give us kisses with, brought it over.
Speaker 2 (31:35):
To our white couch.
Speaker 5 (31:36):
Sania's comment has a white couch with kids and a
dog crushed.
Speaker 2 (31:43):
I was thinking the same thing.
Speaker 5 (31:44):
I wouldn't even trust myself, and yes, that will be
the final word.
Speaker 2 (31:48):
You are insane.
Speaker 4 (31:50):
Yeah, they kind of called me out for that one,
and honestly, that's fair, that's completely fair.
Speaker 8 (31:55):
Do this.
Speaker 2 (31:55):
The sun is shining and.
Speaker 4 (31:57):
If you can see the light at the end of
your coming earlier than normal, well that's a good thing.
We'll get you feeling good right now.
Speaker 2 (32:03):
Though, this is so brilliant.
Speaker 5 (32:07):
It was just announced the Kent County Animal Shelter has
partnered up with GLC Live at twenty Monroe. They said
that the venue approached them about bringing adoptable animals to
meet artists before their performance. So, as part of a rider,
which is kind of like a contract for a band
or musician, they can request to visit with adoptable shelter
(32:29):
pets and then they promote them on their own social
media to get them.
Speaker 2 (32:33):
Famous and adopted. That's awesome. It's so cool.
Speaker 5 (32:36):
So last week Wilder had the chance to meet with
Band of Horses, and then just a couple days ago,
they had their second visit with the tech crew and
band members from the Fray. Wilder got to enjoy some
time outside the shelter. He indulged in some serious snackage
and received plenty of affection. Everyone had a great time
(32:57):
hanging out with our handsome boy. We are so excited
for this partartnership.
Speaker 2 (33:00):
How cool is.
Speaker 5 (33:01):
It our shelter gets promoted by rock stars And the
best part of this story, as of three days ago,
Wilder has been adopted.
Speaker 2 (33:09):
Is that such a brilliant idea.
Speaker 4 (33:10):
So I'm personally of the opinion that, even though I
know the logistics on it would be really difficult that
they should have adoptable pets everywhere, all the time, every grocery.
Speaker 2 (33:19):
Store that you got into, all over the place. We
don't have enough room in.
Speaker 4 (33:23):
Our shelters, but it is so hard to resist your
new furry forever friend when you see them for the
first time.
Speaker 2 (33:29):
Sometimes you just connect right.
Speaker 4 (33:31):
And so if you had those accesses in more places,
I feel like more animals would be adopted.
Speaker 2 (33:36):
Well, here's the thing. I can't wait for one of
these rock stars to be like, oh, I'm gonna bring
them home with me. So it's so cool.
Speaker 5 (33:42):
I'm going to share this to our star page so
you can get some more details.
Speaker 4 (33:45):
This real quicktion, Mittie, but I just thought it was awesome.
You consume get a Lego set and recreate the Grand
Castle apartments. So for Grand FILSMITTI, oh my, sort of
all right, it's not entirely built off the Grand Castle exactly,
but the Lego set just coming out is going to
be mistaken for it because their newest architecture set from
(34:07):
Lego is that I'm going to butcher it because it's German,
the new Schwenstein Castle in Germany, Okay, and it's the
inspiration that they actually used for the Grand Castle in Granville.
So we're talking almost thirty five hundred pieces, eighteen inches long,
eight inches wide, over a foot tall.
Speaker 2 (34:25):
Of course, it's got all those.
Speaker 4 (34:26):
Spire spires and the turrets and everything else, the courtyards
that the castle's famous for. And if you're ready to
drop two hundred and eighty bucks, because we all know
how expensive Legos are, you could actually get this thing
starting on August first. By the way, Lego has actually
never made an official set of any Michigan landmarks.
Speaker 2 (34:44):
I did not know that, and I feel like it's
a crime. I mean, that's a travesy the Granville apartments
for the first one.
Speaker 4 (34:49):
No, because it's not officials. But how have you not
made a Lego set of our mighty mackinawn? How did
you not make a mac and Opridge Lego set?
Speaker 2 (34:58):
We're a lighthouse in Michigan. Right, it might not be
a film like that.
Speaker 4 (35:01):
Ooh, that's a whole series you got right there, miss
lighthouse Overen there, Lego is gonna be looking for.
Speaker 2 (35:06):
That one, all right.
Speaker 4 (35:06):
Feeling good coming at you a couple times a day.
I always want to tell you about cool things going
on out there. Let's do it tomorrow six forty five
and nine twenty each weekday on Star
Speaker 3 (35:14):
Mack and Schmidty in the morning weekday starting at six
am on Star one oh five point seven
Wake, wakem It gets my day going and makes me.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
Laugh of it.
Speaker 3 (00:10):
Mac and Schmitty in the morning on Star one oh
five point seven.
Speaker 4 (00:14):
Good morning, Schmitty, Way, good morning. Welcome into your Tuesday. Yes,
our holiday week with fourth of July on deck for
friend h Smitty. I know you, like so many people
out there, getting ready to take that big road trip.
Oh yes, are you feeling at this moment in time,
just just complete honesty? Are you feeling more anxious or
more excited?
Speaker 5 (00:33):
I don't set an alarm for three am for the
next six days?
Speaker 2 (00:37):
You tell me?
Speaker 5 (00:39):
Yeah, I'm just still There is nothing I have planned
except sleeping in.
Speaker 2 (00:43):
Quite honestly, that's so fair.
Speaker 4 (00:46):
How you gearing up? Youre gearing up for that drive today?
You guys are headed out right. We're leaving at ten am,
ten a m. And second I'm off the air.
Speaker 2 (00:53):
How long is the drive? Seven six somewhere in there.
You know it's really going to depend.
Speaker 5 (00:57):
I don't know if you've already left for up north
give me an I know one thirty one northbound. We're
hoping won't be too bad a little bit later on
this morning, but I'm not sure on bridge traffic. The
bridge is still under construction, so it's down a couple
of lanes. So we're just we're just gonna do our
best to get there.
Speaker 4 (01:12):
You know, last night, Tividi, I was actually thinking about
you road tripping up there because I went to go
visit it with my aunt and uncle who are visiting
from Florida sort of.
Speaker 2 (01:20):
My aunt just retired.
Speaker 4 (01:21):
She's almost gonna be seventy years old, and right now
they have sold their home in Florida and they are
driving the country in an RV. Oh yeah, they're actually
over in Ionia right now in an Austin RV park
over there. We just went over there with the kids
and there was pools and bounce houses and all sorts
of crazy stuff. But they are living the RV life
(01:41):
for at least this entire summer, and it goes from
here to northern Michigan to the Up, all the way
up and around down through Wisconsin. They've got family there
before they head west all so they can end up
and back in Florida in the same town as their daughter.
Speaker 2 (01:56):
This fall.
Speaker 5 (01:57):
Yeah, my best friend's parents are rving in Texas right now.
I've been arving the last two years of their retirement.
Speaker 2 (02:02):
It doesn't sound terrible. I'll be honest with you, lie
again if I'm not setting an alarm.
Speaker 6 (02:05):
Let's do this movies, music, and all the gossip in
one place.
Speaker 3 (02:10):
It's the celebritiescoop on Star one oh five point seven.
Speaker 5 (02:14):
Well, let's start by squashing the rumors that Lady Gaga
and Elton John both demanded a huge pile of money
to perform at the wedding of Jeff Bezos and Lauren
Sanchez over the weekend, and Bezos turned it down.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
Just not true.
Speaker 5 (02:28):
There have been rumors circulating that the Venice Mega Wedding
actually invited both superstars to be a part of the entertainment,
and both Lady Gaga and Elton John individually demanded six
million dollars to perform for the two hundred guest list.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
Not true.
Speaker 5 (02:46):
In fact, Insider say the story is laughable. Neither Elton
nor Gaga were even approached to play the wedding, let
alone demands such a massive fee. As for the entertainment
that did take place, singer Ellie Goulding performed four or
five songs, and then Andrea Bocellis Mateo sing as well.
Speaker 4 (03:01):
I think I didn't realize that Andre Bocelli even had
his son until I saw that he was performing at
his weddings.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
Many.
Speaker 5 (03:07):
Yeah, did you see the Kim Kardashian TikTok where it
was like she got married in Venice, I got married
in Venis. She has an adult chane aabana gown. She
has adult cabana gown. Did you see that Andrea Bocelli
sang at my wedding Andrea Bocelli's son singing hers. Yeah, no,
it's from the Kardashian episode where she's going after Courtney.
But yeah, it's really similar to Kim's wedding. Nelly and
(03:29):
Ashanti have quite the conversation starting online about parental responsibility.
So the pair of a reality show called Nelly and
Ashanti We Belong Together, which just debuted on Peacock, and
fans were really given some insight into how the parents
parent their newborn baby boy, mostly that Nelly does absolutely nothing.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
He said.
Speaker 5 (03:52):
I was very upfront with a Shanzi. I said, once
he can walk and talk, he'll be in the crew.
But I ain't feeding him. I waken up and I'm
not changing diapers something that you can hear. Ashanti really
annoyed with I'm.
Speaker 4 (04:04):
Trying to understand.
Speaker 3 (04:05):
How is it that you used to sleep through when
he saw us crying?
Speaker 7 (04:09):
Do you overnight?
Speaker 4 (04:11):
You know what, it's absolutely.
Speaker 2 (04:13):
Ridiculous that you'll still be dead sleep and he'll be
mad loud but I don't even hear y'all.
Speaker 4 (04:20):
That's ridiculous.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
It's a gift. I guess why is that a gift?
Speaker 7 (04:25):
I'm blessed with that.
Speaker 2 (04:27):
No, that means get up, and you're starting to change him.
I said, baby, I need you the world.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
I just ain't changing him.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
Naturally. A lot of people online said, are you kidding me?
Speaker 5 (04:41):
One social media user writing, Nelly hasn't had a hit
in twenty years.
Speaker 2 (04:46):
You're not even booked.
Speaker 5 (04:47):
Ashanti's had appearance after appearance since giving birth. Get your
lazy butt up and help that woman that you were
so thirsty to run down.
Speaker 4 (04:55):
Huh, Or be smarter, Nelly and shut up. A tour
that doesn't go that goes down stopping. I think he
is around this shummer. But yeah, just Y said the
quiet part out loud, even if you're sneaking by trying
to get away with that you.
Speaker 5 (05:07):
Yeah, one chad that he needs to be thrown into
an active volcano. So there was a lot of strong
feelings from parents on that finally what a throwback.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
EA sports back in the game.
Speaker 5 (05:19):
Electronic Arts making a big announcement yesterday They're bringing back
EA College Basketball. My brothers were obsessed with this video game,
and a post on X they wrote, bring the madness,
let's run it back. It has been sixteen years since
they put out their last game. It actually featured Oklahoma
Sooners star Blake Griffin at the time on the cover.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
Back in two thousand and nine.
Speaker 5 (05:44):
They said one of the main reasons for the long
wait licensing of player's likenesses took quite a while, but
they saw an opportunity to make a triumphant return and
are ready now.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
You gotta wait a bit, though.
Speaker 5 (05:54):
The company said it's probably gonna see a twenty twenty
eight return, so it's still got a couple of years
just in.
Speaker 4 (06:00):
To see how they do it with all of the
college athletes. It'll be involved if they do it like football,
where it's like, hey, everybody gets everybody gets seven hundred
dollars in a new PlayStation five or something and you
get to be in the game.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
Yeah, we'll see.
Speaker 5 (06:12):
Because EA College Football came back last year, so I
wonder if it'll follow a similar line all of your
celeb scoop at West Michigan Star dot com.
Speaker 2 (06:19):
It's telling a fine points seven.
Speaker 4 (06:20):
It's Mack and SCHMITTI look at it gets you a
feeling good as we roll into the holiday week and
your Tuesday morning. And but it was over the weekends
that this video went absolutely wild. Schmidty of a father
who had to jump into the ocean to save his
young daughter after she fell from the fourth story of
a Disney Dream Cruise ship as it sailed from the
Bahamas to Fort Lauderdale. Now, the incident was on the
(06:42):
final leg of a four nine Bohemian cruise, and passengers
wants the whole thing unfold as the father jumped in
to go and rescue the daughter, while rescuers, I'm sure
scrambling to make sure they can catch up. Witnesses describing
this hen seen as they had unfolded before their eyes.
Speaker 1 (07:03):
All the music stopped and then out it came on.
It sounded like mister Mob, but it might have been
mister MOB, which stands for man overboard. He couldn't get
to the life preservers because he was holding on to
his daughter. The ship was moving quickly, so quickly. It's
crazy how quickly the people became tiny dots, and seeing
that you lost sight of them, and the captain slowed
(07:23):
the ship.
Speaker 4 (07:24):
Turn it around, yeah, turn it around, so rescuers could
work as quickly as they could to get to the
man who was holding on to his daughter, as described
right there, treading water in very very choppy and rough seas,
making it very difficult. I mean, when you hear stories
about people falling off a cruise ships.
Speaker 2 (07:40):
Very rarely does it end well.
Speaker 4 (07:41):
But they were able to get to him and the
little girl and pull him back on board as people
were standing by praying for a safe conclusion.
Speaker 3 (07:51):
Oh my god, crank you Jesus.
Speaker 4 (07:57):
He As the boat pulled down up, crowds gathered to
cheer them on, and people just talking about how incredible
that dad's efforts were.
Speaker 2 (08:09):
I am not a swimmer. I don't know if I
could do that or not.
Speaker 7 (08:12):
Probably not I would ground that was a very heroory,
you know thing many did.
Speaker 4 (08:18):
Why couldn't you know? It feels like something any parent
would do. But that is a absolutely wild, dangerous situation,
and you're just so yeah.
Speaker 2 (08:26):
There's so much here. First of all, it's on the
cruise ship.
Speaker 6 (08:28):
Right.
Speaker 5 (08:29):
They're not anywhere near shore, so this cruise ship had
to turn itself entirely around to launch the rescue boat.
It's a four story fall for this girl and her dad,
twenty minutes in rough water. I mean, this is a
wild story, you guys. The video is unbelievable. I know
Disney is now investigating because they have plexiglass barriers.
Speaker 2 (08:47):
Yeah, they're not. No idea how she went?
Speaker 4 (08:49):
Lord, Yeah, it is absolutely nuts. We'll put the video
and the story up for West Michigan.
Speaker 2 (08:54):
Start dot com. All right, let's get to t Rex racing. Okay.
I don't know if you are aware this is a thing.
Speaker 5 (08:59):
But this is my official bid for West Michigan to
somehow do this. Emerald Downs is in Auburn, Washington, mostly
known for horse racing, but once a year it hosts
the annual t Rex World Championship races. And those went
down on Sunday, and I'm telling you this is legit.
These are people in those giant inflatable t Rex costumes
(09:20):
that begin the race by skydiving.
Speaker 7 (09:22):
Here they come skydiving t Rex from Cisco on the mark.
About a nice round of applause for our skydiving dinos.
Speaker 2 (09:32):
That's how they begin. Then they line up and the races.
Speaker 7 (09:36):
On, and Tea Rex is away and they all came
away to a beautiful start. And we've got several fighting
it out at the inside, but a blue t Rex
home in front to win the championship for the ladies.
Speaker 5 (09:51):
I cannot describe it to you, so just follow us
on Instagram so I can put this video up and
you can see how absolutely fabulous the World Championships of
t Rex Racing are. What a time to be alive
in America.
Speaker 2 (10:07):
I gotta be honest with you.
Speaker 4 (10:07):
I not only would I love to compete in something
stupid like this, but I wonder how much that announcer
gets paid, because I feel like I could move in
and sneak in on that job you over there with.
Speaker 5 (10:16):
A one percent volunteer because you get the experience of
talking about inflatable t Rex racing.
Speaker 4 (10:23):
Long list of people waiting to broadcast the t Rex races.
Speaker 6 (10:27):
That's awesome, movies, music, and all the gossip in one place.
Speaker 3 (10:31):
It's the celebritiescoop on Star one oh five point seven.
Speaker 5 (10:35):
Well, the big news for Detroit Professional Women's basketball finally
returning to the Motor City.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
Detroit receives a w NBA expansion team in twenty twenty nine,
the league announcing this yesterday. This is really cool.
Speaker 5 (10:49):
The yet to be named team revives a legacy that
was originally started by the Detroit Shop. They won three
championships as one of the initial WNBA's ex franchises from
ninety nine to two thousand and eight. But it is
the star power behind this that has me really excited.
Piston's owner Tom Gores, backed by a large team of
(11:10):
high profile investors that include Shila Ford hamp quarterback for
the Lions, Jared Goff, former Piston Grant Hill, and Chris
Webber and rapper eminem all have been on board for
this for years. This is super exciting. Two other cities
also announced, Cleveland receiving a franchise in twenty twenty eight
(11:31):
and Philadelphia in twenty thirty two. New teams four next year,
Portland and Toronto. So this thing is growing massively and
it will be super sweet to finally see Detroit back
in the WNBA sphere.
Speaker 2 (11:45):
Okay, so we get the team in twenty twenty nine.
Speaker 4 (11:47):
Right, twenty twenty nine, So I've you got roughly four
years to figure out what we gotta do to trade
for Caitlin Clark right off the bat and bring her
to Drouchal.
Speaker 2 (11:55):
Or see the next Caitlan Clark. There's someone in high school.
Speaker 5 (11:57):
Right now that I mean Rockford has wycheck missus basketball.
So I'm telling you Ditty, and the deliberations already looking
at some drama. So of course it's now in the
hands of the jurors as of yesterday morning, but a
dramatic development as the jury began deliberating, a note was
sent to the by the jury to the judge within
(12:20):
about an hour of the deliberations beginning, so this was
about one fifteen yesterday afternoon. The judge announced he had
received a note, and the jury four person said, we
have a juror Juror twenty five who we believe cannot
follow your honor's instructions, and the four person wanted to
meet with the judge about this. Ditty and his lawyers
were huddled in the courtroom for the announcement. It's interesting,
(12:44):
his defense attorney suggested, telling the jury it's still early
in the process. They're just getting started, while the prosecuting
attorney suggested instructing jurors that it's important not to include
any info about what is going on in the jury rooms.
They were trying to keep the secret, while the defense
he wanted to know what was going on. Thirty minutes later,
the judge sent a note back to the jury reminding
(13:04):
them of their obligation to follow his instructions on the
law nothing else until the jury to continue to deliberate.
Speaker 4 (13:13):
My question for you is, Schmiddy, how did you take
this news? Because in my head, what I heard was
that there was a juror that was going like, I
don't care, I don't care. I already know, I already
know one way or another. I just felt like there
was a person who was unwilling to engage in debate
because they had already made up their mind. And I
honestly feel like that's probably making the defense salivated the mouth.
Speaker 5 (13:35):
Though I won't say if it's defense or prosecution, though
I will say I think somebody probably did go in.
They do know jur twenty five is a fifty one
year old white man with a PhD in molecular biology. Yes,
I don't know how we know that, but we do.
So they are back deliberating again this morning.
Speaker 2 (13:54):
I can't talk with you peasants some way too smartly
right right.
Speaker 5 (13:58):
And finally, legendary Robert de Niro at eighty one years old,
I doubt found whatever. I found himself hanging out with
the Wiggles. Yes, the iconic Australian children's group took to
their Instagram to share a backstage clip before their show
in New York over the weekend, showing Robert de Niro
(14:19):
and his two year.
Speaker 2 (14:20):
Old daughter meeting and greeting with the Wiggles. It's so cute.
Speaker 5 (14:40):
Robert has said in past interviews he's a pretty big
fan of the Wiggles and was definitely there to impress
his youngest daughter, Gia.
Speaker 4 (14:48):
You know, I can't see Jimmy from Goodfellas hanging out.
Speaker 5 (14:51):
With Yes, singing along to the ukulele, had his Twinkle
Twinkle Little Star on. I've got the video for you
with your scoop at West Michigan startup.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
Morning to you.
Speaker 4 (15:02):
It's Mack and Schmidty as we year up for maybe
some Fourth of July trips, or maybe you're just taking
your summer vacations here. Pretty soon we got to talk
about those secret spots finning.
Speaker 2 (15:11):
We're so lucky.
Speaker 5 (15:12):
I feel like we are so lucky to be in
Michigan because it is stunning. We have so much water,
we have so much beach, we have a lot of
woods and trails, and we're headed to the Up to
see family this week. We usually do one, maybe two
bigger trips up north. And I'm always absolutely stunned when
I say that to people and they go, oh, I've.
Speaker 2 (15:30):
Never been north of Gaylord.
Speaker 5 (15:32):
There are so many people that have never crossed the
Mackinaw Bridge and I try that wild.
Speaker 4 (15:36):
That's where the Michigan State Police post last post is,
so I mean, like, you gotta go past that, it's
the wilderness.
Speaker 2 (15:41):
After that, I think we have. We have cops in
the UP. Cops, yes, the last state police. There's no
state police post in the UP.
Speaker 4 (15:49):
I believe, unless it was built in the last fifteen years.
But that was always the last.
Speaker 5 (15:53):
State they got border patrol. They don't have state police
in the UP. So here's the deal. I thought it
would be so much fun, as especially with this being
a vacation week, to talk about your hidden gem spots
across Michigan, but specifically I wanted to talk to the
up because so many people have never been there and
it really is so stunning, and so one of my
other shows we actually talked with Nick Nurban.
Speaker 2 (16:15):
He is so fantastic.
Speaker 5 (16:16):
He's the media and digital director for Travel Michigan, so
he goes everywhere to research for his job, and he
has three really great spots he calls hidden gems. If
you've never checked the mouth, these are all in the
up if.
Speaker 8 (16:27):
You look at the each and upper peninsula of One
of the things I always recommend is get head of
the Tuamenon Falls. For example, there's a little place just
a few minutes off of I seventy five when you're
headed on one twenty three coped King with fish market
and also a lot of folks visit miners Castle and
beautiful tent stone formations with the book pictured.
Speaker 7 (16:43):
Rock book tours.
Speaker 8 (16:44):
Along the Munising area and the other end of the
lake shore is the Grand Moray area, and they've got
the Grand Stable Doom. These things are almost on the
scale of Sleeping Bear Doom and they're in the up.
We went on a Iron Mountain min tour. You go
into this rock mountain, ma you get on the mine
and it got our hard hats the whole nine yards
and it's amazing to see to build this pearls through
(17:05):
the rocks. It took them three years because they did
it by hand. So yes, so you're learning in some
of the history of the UP.
Speaker 5 (17:12):
So those are really cool spots. I've actually never done
one of the mountain tours. I've heard great things. If
you're up near Copper Harbor.
Speaker 4 (17:18):
I'm imagined writing in one of those, like yeah, and
like one of the carts on a track that you
see in cartoons and movies and everything else into the mountains, And.
Speaker 2 (17:25):
That's what it is.
Speaker 5 (17:26):
They did this in the eighteen hundreds by pickaxe for
three years. It took them to do and so much
of the up is like that. And I posted this
on our Facebook and I said, what is your secret
hidden spot? And I'm not downing it. I see you
know a lot of people Beaver Island, Mackinaw Island, Luddington
and Hamlin Lake, Glen Arbor.
Speaker 2 (17:44):
I respect all that. I love those. They're stunning, stunning spots.
Speaker 5 (17:48):
But I want the stuff that we haven't heard of,
like right here in West Michigan. Sarah wrote Lucy's and
Lucy's Backyard, it's in Grand Haven. She said, live music,
the best food and drinks on the lake shore. Incredible
outdoor area. I've never heard of that spot.
Speaker 4 (18:02):
I have not either, Schmidty. If you I'm gonna I'll
give you two. I'll give you one here in West
Michigan that a lot of people know about. But every
time I mentioned it, somebody says, no Duck Lake north
of Miskeigan.
Speaker 2 (18:13):
Duck Lake.
Speaker 4 (18:14):
If you've got young kids but you want to be
out on Lake Michigan, go there. The lake is literally
connected to Lake Michigan. That offers like a three foot
deep kiddie pool that's like ten degrees warmer at all
times than the water and you can actually keep an
eye on your kids without them being in any type
of rip current or big waves or anything too really good.
But if I was talking secret spot Smitty and I
(18:34):
wanted to go up north a little bit, you don't
have to go to the up but it is it
is an interesting spot. The largest waterfalls in the Lower Peninsula,
and the biggest is called Akiak Falls and it is
just a bright around Roger City. Okay, this is the
not only the privately owned waterfall in the in the
(18:55):
state of Michigan. This is the only universally accessible waterfall
in the entire country. It has got all these incredible
hiking pass and everything else that go out there. Schmiddy
and uh. It's all cement so people of any kind
of ability can get to it.
Speaker 2 (19:11):
It's really cool, all right.
Speaker 5 (19:12):
So what would be your secret spot? Six one, six,
four five eight one oh five seven. I would love
to know the places that you grew up going to
Bond Falls. I've never heard of that Preskuyle Falls. That's stunning.
The Porky Mountains. One person brought those up. The Porky's
are absolutely show stopping.
Speaker 4 (19:32):
Speech us coming to you when I go to the
up because you feel like an expert all things up?
Speaker 5 (19:36):
Oh gosh, Well really quick though, I will warn you
if you're going to try to speed. There are state
police posts in the Upper Peninsula. In fact, the specific
eighth District encompasses the entire Upper place.
Speaker 4 (19:48):
Is there is there a back at all? The bridge
and the bridge and galer that's all?
Speaker 5 (19:53):
Maybe that SA sayt Iigna's Gladstone Iron Mountain ray.
Speaker 2 (19:57):
So watch yourselves, don't listen to MA. Go over here.
Speaker 6 (20:00):
This is one top to them Smitty's so salty like.
Speaker 4 (20:05):
The rim of a proper margarita. Yes, doused, insult but
able to shed it each and every week as we
give the vent session salty Schmitty, what has got too
salty before?
Speaker 2 (20:15):
Bak. I'll tell you I think we're being lied to.
I don't think people like fireworks. Ah, you're wrong, I don't.
I love it. So here's the deal, guys.
Speaker 5 (20:22):
I have been watching social media for the last few
nights because here we go, right, we're in technically not
the legal zone for the record, but everybody neighborhoods, beaches,
if you're at your cabin, they're shooting up fireworks. And
I will tell you I've not seen a single post
from someone that's like, ah, thank you so much to.
Speaker 2 (20:40):
My neighbor for shooting them off at midnight. This is magical.
Speaker 5 (20:43):
And I just think there is some kind of giant
conspiracy for firework companies.
Speaker 2 (20:48):
Not that I get it.
Speaker 5 (20:50):
Your businesses, you're entrepreneurs, you're gonna make gonna make your money.
Speaker 2 (20:53):
But there is no way I look this up.
Speaker 5 (20:55):
Seventy to seventy five percent of people report liking or
loving firework. It's only twenty percent expressing dislike or hatred.
I don't think that's true. I think at least fifty
fifty and I think I'm sorry, I'll be that parent
that if you have kids or dogs and not enough transdone,
it is not an enjoyable experience.
Speaker 3 (21:16):
Shitty.
Speaker 2 (21:17):
So Stalky.
Speaker 6 (21:21):
Eads music and all the gossip in one place.
Speaker 3 (21:24):
It's the celebritiescoop on Star one oh five point seven.
Speaker 2 (21:28):
Leno and Rosie O'Donnell says it.
Speaker 5 (21:31):
It's gonna be pretty laced with some interesting burbage. The
latest celebrity letting the world know what she really thinks
about the wedding of Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos and his
now wife Lauren Sanchez, throwing in quite a few shady shots,
especially about Lauren's looks. So Rosie took to Instagram yesterday
(21:51):
with a V four and after picture of Lauren, calling
her Jeff's fake fembot wife. She goes it turned my
stomach seeing all these billionaires gathering in the gross success
of it all, the show of it is Oprah really
friends with Jeff Bezos. Really, he treats his employees with
disdain by any metric. He's not a nice man, and
(22:13):
his fake bembot wife who looks like that? Why would
he choose her? After the salt of the Earth Mackenzie.
She went on to say he definitely sold his soul
and the devil is smiling. At the same time, she
also said to read the rest subscribe to me on substacks.
Of course, all right, I liked the fake membo wipe.
(22:33):
I just thought that was kind of funny.
Speaker 4 (22:34):
The fake mbot was funny. My question was how long
ago was that picture of the first picture of Laurence Sanchez?
Speaker 2 (22:40):
Take it?
Speaker 4 (22:40):
Because I almost felt bad. I'm like, if you're using
something from fifteen twenty years ago, that's super rude. If
that was five years ago, yeah, holy cow, what did
you do?
Speaker 2 (22:49):
I do think it's fairly recent.
Speaker 4 (22:51):
That's insanity and honestly that that doesn't look healthy in
any type of ways.
Speaker 2 (22:56):
A lot of surgeons out there.
Speaker 5 (22:57):
Yeah, singer post Malone on the market because he is
no longer in a relationship with Christy Lee News just drop.
The couple formally called it quits a little under a
month ago. They've been together romantically since at least the
start of the year. Unclear what happened or if the
pair is still on friendly terms. But a lot of
fans are wondering if this just has to do with
(23:18):
the fact that Post is putting so much time, effort,
and energy into the custody battle.
Speaker 2 (23:22):
He is still waging with his ex over his child,
so they are no longer together.
Speaker 5 (23:29):
You'll remember that his former ex called off their engagement
towards the end of twenty twenty four, and then he
picked up with this Christie woman pretty quickly, but no
longer thing. Finally, let's get to the breaking news yesterday
about Brian Coberger. So. Coburger is the one charged with
four counts of first degree murder one count of felony
burglary in connection with those murders of the four University
(23:52):
of Idaho's students back in November of twenty twenty two.
He was indicted in May of twenty three, put in
a not guilty plea, and his trial was supposed to
start next month. It was an absolute shock yesterday when
the victims' families were first told he has accepted a
(24:12):
plea agreement. He's going to enter guilty on all charges,
which means he would be sentenced most likely to four
consecutive life sentences and up to ten years on the
burglary charge, but he will not face the death penalty.
This was definitely a shock to the family as well.
One of those victims is Kayleie Gonkalve's and her family
(24:34):
issuing a statement on social media, writing.
Speaker 2 (24:37):
It's true.
Speaker 5 (24:38):
We are beyond furious at the State of Idaho. They
have failed us. Please give us some time. This was
very unexpected. We appreciate all your love and support. It's
being reported by multiple outlets that all of the family
members feel the exact same way. How dare you This
man is a monster and this is not serving us
justice for our children whatsoever.
Speaker 4 (25:00):
You know, it's sad to see the family so upset
about this. The only thing that I would think would
be more upsetting was getting to trial and then for
some technicality or for some other reason that the jury
just doesn't fully buy the prosecution story, or some doubt
enters that they don't get any justice. This guy's going
to go away in a cement box for the rest
of his life.
Speaker 3 (25:19):
I don't know.
Speaker 5 (25:20):
I can't comment. I would never even be able to
fathom what it's like to be in this position. All
of your celebscoop at West Michigan Star.
Speaker 4 (25:27):
Dot Com the Battle of the Sexiest Time looking to
land you at a Jim Gaffigan show coming up this month,
because yes, we are in July. There's a reminder there,
guys that I feel like this question schmiddy could lead
to an entire Jim Gaffigan style bit.
Speaker 5 (25:40):
All right, so it's July seventeenth at Vanandel It's his
Everything Is Wonderful Tour. One hundred men surveyed, what age
do you think young people have it all figured out?
Speaker 4 (25:49):
But for your age, you think it is. Go ahead
and subtract at least two years off of that.
Speaker 2 (25:53):
Gotta be.
Speaker 5 (25:54):
I don't know if I've ever felt that way. I
didn't have the invincibility as a twenty one year old.
I knew I was dumb.
Speaker 4 (26:00):
I felt less and less invincible every year after the
age of twenty five. Yeah, that's when I realized how
dumb I really am.
Speaker 2 (26:07):
All right, here we go.
Speaker 5 (26:08):
One hundred men surveyed, what age do young people think
they have it all figured out?
Speaker 2 (26:13):
Six?
Speaker 5 (26:13):
One six, four five eight, one oh five seven collar seven.
You've got the number one answer. You're going to see
Jim Gaffigan at Vanandel with Star one oh five point seven,
Good morning star.
Speaker 2 (26:24):
Who's this?
Speaker 8 (26:25):
I got it?
Speaker 2 (26:26):
Calb John, I'm sorry, what's your name?
Speaker 6 (26:28):
Caleb?
Speaker 2 (26:29):
Caleb?
Speaker 4 (26:30):
Who else was trying to call at the same time? Caleb,
it's okay, I don't know. Yeah, you're here. Can you
hear me?
Speaker 2 (26:35):
Okay? Caleb?
Speaker 4 (26:36):
Who else was trying to call it the same time
as you? I heard you in the background, h John?
Speaker 2 (26:40):
Nice? Nice?
Speaker 7 (26:41):
Well.
Speaker 2 (26:41):
Teamwork makes the dream work.
Speaker 4 (26:42):
Guys. Hopefully together you can come up with the right
answer in these Jim Gaffigan tickets. Okay, one hundred guys.
Caleb were asked to tell me at what age young
people think they have it all figured out?
Speaker 2 (26:54):
What do you think? The top answer is Caleb sixteen sixteen?
How old are you? Caleb, Oh, fourteen.
Speaker 4 (27:00):
You are fourteen years old, so you don't quite have
it all figured out yet. No, that's because you don't
have a driver's license yet. I mean, even if you're sixteen,
you definitely probably won't know how to drive a stick
at that point, so you don't quite have it all
figured out. Everything else though, Yeah, you'll get there. Caleb,
sixteen is the top answer. You guys have got just
having tickets? Yes, thank you, Congratulations.
Speaker 8 (27:24):
I'm heading to my mom.
Speaker 4 (27:26):
Oh, well, perfect mom. By the way, your fourteen year
old son, Caleb, you said Jen's your name.
Speaker 2 (27:33):
Yes, I am Jen Jen.
Speaker 4 (27:35):
Caleb crushed it. He got the right answer at sixteen.
I just wanted to tell you that the second most
common answer was fourteen. And now, after just crushing Battle
of the sexes, I'm pretty sure your fourteen year old
thinks he's got it all figured out.
Speaker 5 (27:48):
He is freaking out right.
Speaker 4 (27:51):
Sixteen, fourteen, eighteen, and thirteen, rounding out those top answers
for when you thought you had it all figured out
and then we all got older, didn't realized we had
nothing figured out. But you guys are going to Jim
gaff again. July seventeenth.
Speaker 2 (28:06):
Congrats, thank you so much. Good morning to you.
Speaker 4 (28:12):
It's Mack and Schmiddy and I almost brought in a
third person to be in the studio with us. Should
say person I was going to, but I'm gonna be
here for a while today. I got some meetings this afternoon.
I didn't want to do it to my new dog, Juno.
We did keep the name Juno, which I know is
the one you were preferring. Yeah, I like Juno. It's
growing on me for sure. But yes, we got to
do Australian Shepherd Juno to go along with my dog Ace,
(28:35):
who's an Australian Shepherd border College. There is a lot
of energy in my house. But you when I just
mentioned this a second ago, what the worst part of
getting a new dog is, especially a puppy, because it's
not all just the best parts. There's the worst parts too.
You said the word new born. Yeah, yeah, that is
exactly what my wife would say, and that is probably
(28:57):
that's her least favorite part, and that is the waking
up early in the morning because this puppy is only
four months old, so I let it out at about
four thirty in the morning before I take off, and
then the puppies up by six fifteen, And so every
day for the last two weeks since we got her,
somebody's got to be up to let her out of
(29:18):
her crate and get her outside immediately, which brings me
to my least favorite.
Speaker 2 (29:24):
Part of the new dock accidents. Yeah, four months not
fully trained yet, Smitty, And I'm.
Speaker 5 (29:29):
Actually I was gonna say, you guys are getting good sleep.
Then when we got our puppy, Puppy light twelve weeks,
we were going out every two hours.
Speaker 2 (29:35):
Yeah, well that's how about how old Ace was? We
got to mean? Yeah, that was that was real? That
was real. Woll what's the worst?
Speaker 4 (29:39):
The accident aspect for us, though, is tough because the
dog's like ninety percent house broken at this point. But
when does she have accidents? When she gets super excited?
So in the morning when I let her out in
the dark. Right, I'm in the dark in my living
room and I'm trying to do everything silently. I cannot
acknowledge her in the morning when I let her out,
(30:00):
or it's an instant pe all.
Speaker 2 (30:02):
That's what you're supposed to do for puppies.
Speaker 5 (30:04):
And when you have guests over and they're jumping around,
you're not supposed to do anything or give them attention
until they call them themselves down.
Speaker 4 (30:11):
It's super funny that you say that too, because my kids,
we're trying to do everything we can to train this
pupp yeah, perfectly, And so my kids never listen to me.
They don't believe anything I say, Like I feel most
parents would feel that way. Well, I went to chat
GBT Smitty and I had that layout a strategy for
housebreaking A four month old puppy and like step by
(30:32):
steph and I gave it to the kids. So now
they're all on board. They've got all the little tricks
and tips that they went for. It's all the same
stuff their mom and I were telling them. But it
doesn't matter because it came from Ai, and Ai is
infinitely smarter than your dad could ever be.
Speaker 5 (30:44):
You're gonna get it all good to go until you
have a massive amount of family over this Fourth of July,
and it's gonna undo everything.
Speaker 4 (30:52):
There's two dogs coming in addition to my actually three
dogs coming in addition to it. It's gonna get wild.
But I asked this on Facebook and you guys had
some good faces. Taz is the dog of Chris and
the chewing stage. My last dog Ace his chewing stage
cost us. I'm not kidding. I'm not being facetious. At
least fifteen plus pairs of sandals.
Speaker 5 (31:14):
Oh see, First, Taz did Chris's truck. He chewed the
seats in his truck, which I feel like is really
top not truck.
Speaker 2 (31:22):
Yeah, the uh.
Speaker 4 (31:23):
I gotta come back to the accidents because I'm getting
called out because my dog did have one in the
house where it like pooped in a corner.
Speaker 2 (31:29):
Then took the poop in its mouth.
Speaker 4 (31:31):
Smitty, that same super cute mouth that it wants to
give us kisses with, brought it over.
Speaker 2 (31:35):
To our white couch.
Speaker 5 (31:36):
Sania's comment has a white couch with kids and a
dog crushed.
Speaker 2 (31:43):
I was thinking the same thing.
Speaker 5 (31:44):
I wouldn't even trust myself, and yes, that will be
the final word.
Speaker 2 (31:48):
You are insane.
Speaker 4 (31:50):
Yeah, they kind of called me out for that one,
and honestly, that's fair, that's completely fair.
Speaker 8 (31:55):
Do this.
Speaker 2 (31:55):
The sun is shining and.
Speaker 4 (31:57):
If you can see the light at the end of
your coming earlier than normal, well that's a good thing.
We'll get you feeling good right now.
Speaker 2 (32:03):
Though, this is so brilliant.
Speaker 5 (32:07):
It was just announced the Kent County Animal Shelter has
partnered up with GLC Live at twenty Monroe. They said
that the venue approached them about bringing adoptable animals to
meet artists before their performance. So, as part of a rider,
which is kind of like a contract for a band
or musician, they can request to visit with adoptable shelter
(32:29):
pets and then they promote them on their own social
media to get them.
Speaker 2 (32:33):
Famous and adopted. That's awesome. It's so cool.
Speaker 5 (32:36):
So last week Wilder had the chance to meet with
Band of Horses, and then just a couple days ago,
they had their second visit with the tech crew and
band members from the Fray. Wilder got to enjoy some
time outside the shelter. He indulged in some serious snackage
and received plenty of affection. Everyone had a great time
(32:57):
hanging out with our handsome boy. We are so excited
for this partartnership.
Speaker 2 (33:00):
How cool is.
Speaker 5 (33:01):
It our shelter gets promoted by rock stars And the
best part of this story, as of three days ago,
Wilder has been adopted.
Speaker 2 (33:09):
Is that such a brilliant idea.
Speaker 4 (33:10):
So I'm personally of the opinion that, even though I
know the logistics on it would be really difficult that
they should have adoptable pets everywhere, all the time, every grocery.
Speaker 2 (33:19):
Store that you got into, all over the place. We
don't have enough room in.
Speaker 4 (33:23):
Our shelters, but it is so hard to resist your
new furry forever friend when you see them for the
first time.
Speaker 2 (33:29):
Sometimes you just connect right.
Speaker 4 (33:31):
And so if you had those accesses in more places,
I feel like more animals would be adopted.
Speaker 2 (33:36):
Well, here's the thing. I can't wait for one of
these rock stars to be like, oh, I'm gonna bring
them home with me. So it's so cool.
Speaker 5 (33:42):
I'm going to share this to our star page so
you can get some more details.
Speaker 4 (33:45):
This real quicktion, Mittie, but I just thought it was awesome.
You consume get a Lego set and recreate the Grand
Castle apartments. So for Grand FILSMITTI, oh my, sort of
all right, it's not entirely built off the Grand Castle exactly,
but the Lego set just coming out is going to
be mistaken for it because their newest architecture set from
(34:07):
Lego is that I'm going to butcher it because it's German,
the new Schwenstein Castle in Germany, Okay, and it's the
inspiration that they actually used for the Grand Castle in Granville.
So we're talking almost thirty five hundred pieces, eighteen inches long,
eight inches wide, over a foot tall.
Speaker 2 (34:25):
Of course, it's got all those.
Speaker 4 (34:26):
Spire spires and the turrets and everything else, the courtyards
that the castle's famous for. And if you're ready to
drop two hundred and eighty bucks, because we all know
how expensive Legos are, you could actually get this thing
starting on August first. By the way, Lego has actually
never made an official set of any Michigan landmarks.
Speaker 2 (34:44):
I did not know that, and I feel like it's
a crime. I mean, that's a travesy the Granville apartments
for the first one.
Speaker 4 (34:49):
No, because it's not officials. But how have you not
made a Lego set of our mighty mackinawn? How did
you not make a mac and Opridge Lego set?
Speaker 2 (34:58):
We're a lighthouse in Michigan. Right, it might not be
a film like that.
Speaker 4 (35:01):
Ooh, that's a whole series you got right there, miss
lighthouse Overen there, Lego is gonna be looking for.
Speaker 2 (35:06):
That one, all right.
Speaker 4 (35:06):
Feeling good coming at you a couple times a day.
I always want to tell you about cool things going
on out there. Let's do it tomorrow six forty five
and nine twenty each weekday on Star
Speaker 3 (35:14):
Mack and Schmidty in the morning weekday starting at six
am on Star one oh five point seven
