Speaker 1 (00:02):
Wa wa wakem It gets my day going and makes
me laugh. I of it. Mac and Schmidty in the
morning on Star one on five point seven, Good morning, Tritty,
Good morning. Welcome into your Thursday. Here we go weekend
to eve is upon us. It's could be pretty nice
to you. A little bit chillier than yesterday though where
we got to those mid seventies tempts. Didn't mind that
(00:23):
those will be back soon. But today high's near sixty
partly cloud these guys. We'll see a lot of sun.
Speaker 2 (00:28):
Today too, Smitty, Yeah, that's nice.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
Yeah, And that's so bad at all. Although you know what,
my day's just going to get better and better because
it started with that dreadite noise of your dog gagging.
I literally so my dog, you know, he was sleeping
at the foot of our bed. I got up. He
got up, and I'm going out there and I'm, you know,
looking for clothes, and I hear it yat, yat.
Speaker 2 (00:50):
Oh my gosh, So did you clean it up or
did you bail?
Speaker 1 (00:53):
It was a combo of both, because he like had
a trail going to the door from there and then
got outside and then I cleaned it up because it
was literally right in the path of most resistance, Like
whoever I left it for was gonna walk in it,
And that's a death sentence for sure.
Speaker 2 (01:07):
Hardwitter carpet a hardwood, Well there you go.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
Yeah, but well you're stepping in it in barefoot. Oh gosh,
it's sundenship or step.
Speaker 2 (01:14):
It's fine movies, music and all the gossip in one place.
Speaker 1 (01:19):
It's the celebritiescoop on Star one oh five point seven.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
Mana man, it feels like Miley Cyrus and her fan
cannot seem to catch a break from the drama, and
there seems to be some fresh family beef as Miley's mom, Tish,
has just unfollowed her on Instagram, so it's very interesting.
Fans were the first to point this out, noticing that
Miley is now off of Tish's following list, and a
lot of them think this has something to do with
(01:44):
Miley patching things up with dad Billy Ray So Billy
shared a throwback video of Miley on the piano yesterday
while he was strumming along with his guitar and wrote,
cannot wait to see this young lady crazy how time flies?
Sure if maybe that had anything to do with Tish
unfollowing Miley. It all happened about the same time. But
(02:06):
Billy Ray's new girlfriend, actress Elizabeth Hurley, has been all
about Miley going through, liking all these social media posts,
writing really complimentary messages. This would be kind of rough
because remember Tish just patched things up with her other daughter,
Noah after all that drama about her allegedly stealing Noah's
now husband and this like weird love triangle. So not
(02:29):
really sure what's going on here, but man, it feels
like Miley is constantly having problems with her parents.
Speaker 1 (02:35):
I am hoping to never reach levels of immaturity and
just ridiculousness that you're unfollowing your adult children on social media.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
Maybe feels good, I don't know. Actor John Voight says
him and President Trump are working together to save Hollywood,
not surprising. Voight's been a longtime supporter of President Trump.
But here's the deal, he says, the whole thing could
go south, just like Detroit, Michigan. I don't understand why
people keep dragging that city into it. The actor, giving
(03:06):
his first interview to Variety since the President announced those
one hundred percent tariffs on movies made outside the US boids,
saying Tinseltown really does need help, and it's a good
thing the president cares about the industry because he is
ready to roll up his sleeves and save it. Boyd says,
we can't let it go down the drain like Detroit.
This shouldn't be political. I don't know the political identities
(03:28):
of the people we've talked to, and we've talked to
a lot of people here. I don't distinguish them or
their party affiliation. Boyd says Trump has a good plan
to get Hollywood back to the Golden Age. Aside from
taking that shot at Detroit, Boyd also says him and
President Trump have both been treated unfairly because of their
political views. You think it's unfair. Now, wait for people
(03:51):
in detruct to get a load of this interview this morning.
That is unkind.
Speaker 1 (03:54):
Maybe John Boyd hasn't been there since the last time
he was relevant. It's been a long time.
Speaker 2 (03:58):
I feel like finally the vale you of Late One
Direction singer Liam Payne's multi million dollar estate has been decided.
Since the star died without a will, a United Kingdom
court has determined Liam's baby mama is going to be
in charge of overseeing his money and property.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
Is that the legal term?
Speaker 2 (04:20):
I guess. His former girlfriend Cheryl Tweety was appointed as
one of the executors of his estate. Music industry attorney
Richard Mark Bray will be a co administrator. Thirty two
million dollars that they are going to be trying to
work through on this. A lot of that will likely
be set up for a trust for their eight year
(04:41):
old son Bear. But once again, just a great reminder, guys,
a living will is super duper important because chances are
this is going to see a lot of legal infighting,
especially considering Liam Pasted with another girlfriend on the side
that I'm sure is not going.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
To love this.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
All of your celeb scoop but West Michigan start, She's.
Speaker 1 (05:00):
Going a fun point, Sevin, come boring into you. It's
Mack and Schmidti trying to make it better. Feeling good
right now and honestly, as any parent, this story's gone viral.
I could have waited until headlines. I didn't want to
schmiddy the Kentucky mom who wound up with thirty cases
of dumb dums on her porch. Did you see this story?
Speaker 2 (05:18):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (05:18):
So ridiculous. Her son was messing around on her phone.
You know Taylor's oldest time, right, But she got thirty
cases of dumb dums containing in each box about twenty
three hundred and sixty nine thousand dumb dums delivered to
her house. The picture showing all of them sitting on
(05:40):
her stoop there about one hundred and thirty bucks a pop,
though four thousand dollars order and Amazon had first told
her to deny delivery, but apparently the delivery driver didn't
ring the doorbell and didn't ask. They just left him
on the porch, so that Amazon told her they were
not going to let her refund the money, but she
put this post out there. Of course, it went viral
(06:02):
and people started offering to buy some of the cases
for which was really nice. And after she said, after
a long day working with the bank and talking to
a few news stations, Amazon called and they're refunding my money.
As he updated and said, those who offered a purchase
a case having given the option to either get it
or donate them to a charity.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
But that's where most I said the feeling good is
the news station. It was like a Target eight situation
where they were like, hey, Jeff, Come on, all right,
let's get to our Grin Rapids. Griffins obviously we know
in playoff action right now. And when you think about
the backbone of a team, you might think the coach
or maybe the captain. Not with our Griffins, it's the
equipment manager Brad Thompson aka Dog, a nickname he earned
(06:46):
from the team back in the nineties because of his
love of Snoop Dog. That's right. The heart and soul
for almost thirty years has been this incredible guy. Ask anyone.
Griffin's captain Josiah tells Fox seventeen he's the heart and
soul of this team. The coach says, oh, you know
Dog Dog and Grand Rapids. Yeah, everybody knows dog Dog
(07:09):
is huge. Griffin's captain Eddie Patterson is the one who
gave that nickname. As for Dog, it's real simple. He
shows up each and every day to make others feel good.
So you step out that door your best.
Speaker 3 (07:23):
I mean, at the end of the day, I'm the
team mom, like you know, and honestly, you know, if
they need a hug, they get a hug. And if
they need a little barking, like I have that in me.
To show them that it's a game. The people out
there are the ones that let you do that by
buying a ticket and to come to watch you. So
you know, be humble and just you know, enjoy your job.
(07:44):
So what I do is try to just make everybody
as good as me around me and better than me,
so you can excel when you step your foot outside
this door.
Speaker 2 (07:53):
Man, that is who you want on your team. By
the way, fingers crossed. Game three for our Grand Rapids
Griffins tomorrow night in Texas at eight o'clock. That's go Griffith, Movies, music,
and all the gossip in one place.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
It's the celebrities gup on Star one oh five point seven.
Speaker 2 (08:11):
I had the news yesterday. Motown legend Smokey Robinson has
had four former housekeepers file a sexual assault lawsuit against him,
and now Robinson's camp is saying it's filled with lies
and only designed to try and get money out of
the legendary artist. Smokey's attorney, Christopher Frost, issuing a statement saying,
(08:34):
as this case progresses, the evidence, the crucial element that
guides us will show that this is simply an ugly
method of trying to extract money from an eighty five
year old American icon, fifty million dollars to be exact.
He goes on to call out both the plaintiffs and
their lawyers, saying, through this process, we've seen the bizarre
(08:55):
theatrics of a news conference as the plaintiff's attorneys outlined vile,
false allegations against both mister and missus Robinson, trying to
enlist the public as an unwitting participant in the media
circus they are trying to create. If you missed it,
the accusers, who have all filed as Jane does, claim
that Robinson assaulted and even raped them while they were
(09:18):
working for him. They claim the allegations begin in two
thousand and seven and go as recently as to last year.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
Man A says, you hate to see somebody who has
been just in the public eye for so long like
this all of a sudden, with these heinous allegations.
Speaker 2 (09:34):
Justin Baldoni, director for It Ends with Us, has blown
so much money on his legal dealings with actress Blake Lively,
his charity has had to shut down. If you weren't aware,
there is a charitable part of Justin's Wayfarer Studios that
has taken quite a hit. Sources make it clear this
shutdown is tied to the ongoing lawsuits and the financial
(09:57):
toll that it's taken. Baldoni and co founder Steve sarah
Witz say that Wayfarer Studios itself is still okay. However,
the closure of this charity is a true gut punch
given the foundation's powerful mission. They fund causes from criminal
justice reform to gender equality, LGBTQ rights, and uplifting diverse communities.
(10:20):
Steve has already poured over one hundred million of his
own dollars into foundations and the work that they do,
and said this just cannot keep going.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
I mean, in just another quiver in the error, is
arowin the quiver to be like Blake Lively did this
to me? I was just trying to help people.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
And finally, in honor of Mother's Day, this Sunday, Jason
and Travis Kelcey invited Mom on their New Heights podcast.
One of our favorites, Donna Kelcey was a true mom
and in true mom fashion, did not miss an opportunity
to kind of embarrass her boy a little bit.
Speaker 4 (10:59):
Bob, did you not like any of our Travis Ryer's
girlfriends or my girlfriend, my wife Jaz.
Speaker 1 (11:05):
We really didn't bring a lot of ladies home. Yeah, no,
we got it. Mom. Okay, you dated, but I didn't
know any of them. So the same thing, Tray, have
I you know I met one or two.
Speaker 3 (11:21):
Did you have any time at.
Speaker 4 (11:22):
All to date?
Speaker 3 (11:23):
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (11:24):
I had plenty of time. I had absolutely zero game
and I looked like an overweight tow balloo. But that's
why I didn't have any girlfriends.
Speaker 3 (11:32):
So good.
Speaker 2 (11:33):
The interview is fantastic. Up for you with your scoop
at West Michigan.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
Start off, thanks for starting your Thursday right here. It's
Mac and Schmitty and there's so many things I feel
like our kids are missing out on.
Speaker 2 (11:44):
Smiddy Well, yeah, I mean any generation right. I would
not really know a rotary dial phone if not for
going to my grandparents every weekend in the summer. This
one caught me off guard though, I really did, and
I realized I'm just not a very classy person and
that's probably why my kids don't know this. But this
was wednes Tuesday. I'm sit in the living room and
(12:08):
my son comes in and goes, Mom, what is that?
Speaker 5 (12:10):
I said?
Speaker 4 (12:11):
What.
Speaker 2 (12:11):
He goes, that thing sitting on the island, and I said,
what are you talking about? And I realized my mother
in law, who'd been in town watching the kids, yea,
was ironing some clothes. So the iron was sitting on
the island. I said, are you talking about the iron?
He goes yeah. I go, it's an iron. It's for
ironing clothes. What does that mean? I said, well, like,
(12:32):
you know, if you don't want wait what And he goes, what,
I don't know what an iron is? He said, you've
never seen an iron, and then smack in my face,
I go, you've never seen an iron in seven years
of life. You have never seen me or your father
iron anything because we don't have nice.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
Clothes, well fat, but also we know you are, like myself,
a worshiper at the shrine of all things. Go into
the dryer every day, right, Like, that's what you use.
It's your iron, And most of the time no, I.
Speaker 2 (13:01):
Just hang it in my bathroom and take a shower
and pray the Steve. I show up to fancy events.
I've seen pictures of myself literally and seeing charitable events
in a wrinkled dress, and I was like, oh, you
would have no idea. So then we like got out
a video and I showed him and he's like, people
do this. I go all the time, buddy. People actually
(13:22):
constantly show up in really nice looking things. If your
dad and I had like real jobs, we'd probably iron
our shirts and our pants. There's this thing called pleats
people iron those absolutely awestruck by what an iron was.
Speaker 1 (13:36):
That is hilarious that they had never seen one before.
I actually had a similar thing happened with the cassette,
but we I couldn't. I couldn't prove it to my
kids really that that's what they were used for without
pulling up a video because I realized I had, I think,
like fifteen old cassettes in a box and no way
to play them.
Speaker 2 (13:52):
How would you play them?
Speaker 1 (13:53):
No, I like trying to explain, like the music, guys
is on this tape and then like pulling it out
and then using a pencil to really bad.
Speaker 2 (14:01):
Don't pull it out too hard because then you're done.
Speaker 1 (14:03):
They were They're just looking at it like why would
anyone want to use it? This?
Speaker 2 (14:06):
This is I have no sense, no way to show
my kids how CD works, no idea how to show
my kids a laser disc because anyone have a laser
disc machine anymore, like sitting in your basement, I would
love to know.
Speaker 1 (14:17):
This was so stupid. We were in uh we were
in Massachusetts and my kids were younger than they are
right now. But we realized they had never seen a
newspaper stand before, like where they're all just stacked up
and you drop fifty cents in or seventy business Yes,
outside of a business stand alone, you know, by itself,
not in the store. And my son, I think he
was like five or six at the time, and just goes,
(14:38):
why don't people steal all of them? And I was like,
nobody knows, buddy, nobody knows. No, you open it up
and you have access to all the papers. When you
open up a.
Speaker 2 (14:47):
Thing that's going to be a small town thing. Oh
you don't know about them lancing you? I had to.
They were real tight about that. I've never even seen
one would have eyes on it, Like, uh, uh, you
do not need all the give us a call six
one six four five eight one oh five seven that
tech if you can call an iron a piece of
tech that your kids were just really mind blowing about,
(15:10):
or drop that talk back inside our free. iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 1 (15:13):
It's the coolest new thing outside of a tablet SCHMITTI
is the new Iron. I'm sure he's gonna be telling
all his friends about it. It's up. It's the celebritiescoop
on Star one oh five point seven.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
Well, we start with a big health announcement. Lead singer
of Three Doors Down, Brad Arnold has announced to fans
he's battling cancer. It was a very emotional social media post.
Speaker 5 (15:36):
Got some not so good news for you today and
uh so I'd been sick a couple of weeks ago
and then went to the hospital and got a got
checked out and had actually got the diagnosis that I
had a cliche arene Old Carson onod that it tests
a size into my own and that's uh stage four
and that's not real good. But you know what, we
(15:58):
we save a mighty guy and he can over he
can do, he can overcome anything.
Speaker 2 (16:05):
Clear cell renal carsonoma. That is a form of kidney cancer.
And as you heard there, it has metastasized to his
lungs and it is stage four. He says he is
staying positive. That said, Arnold tells fans this summer's Big
three doors Down tour will not be happening, apologizing to
the excited fans who are planning to come out, but
(16:26):
finished his message by saying he is now adopting the
band's song It's Not by Time as his own personal anthem,
getting tons of love on Social Creeds, lead singer Scott Staff, writing,
if anyone has the faith and strength to face this fight,
it is you, my brother. You and your family are
in my prayers daily. I agree we can do all
(16:48):
things through Christ.
Speaker 1 (16:49):
Sad sad news, and I mean the biggest fear, right
does you just don't feel well and go in and
get told some serious diagnosis like that?
Speaker 2 (16:56):
Yeah, you saw the viral video a few weeks ago
at PNC Park. It's a Major League Baseball game and
Pirates fan Kevin mark Wood is now opening up about
the terrifying fall from the stands that left him thankfully
hospitalized and not dad with serious injuries, admitting he still
(17:17):
has a long road to recovery, but it's the first
time he's been able to speak. The twenty year old
former college athlete told trib Live he has not watched
the footage of his twenty one foot plummet from the
Clemente Wall, but new footage shows he was actually jumping
up to celebrate an awesome hit. That's when he went
(17:37):
right over the railing. He tells Trip live, I can't
really sleep. I have a lot of back pain, but
he said, I'm alive. As for his lengthy list of injuries,
he has broken everything, his family stated, a broken neck,
a broken clavigal, a broken back. But this is a
really nice side of this. More than forty five thousand
(17:57):
dollars has been raised to help in his recovery, and
he did take his very first steps just a few
days ago.
Speaker 1 (18:04):
So lucky to be alive. That video made me sick
to my stomach when I saw it.
Speaker 2 (18:08):
Finally, we are, of course, into day two of the
conclave to elect a new pope. If you missed it
earlier this morning, that was black smoke that came out
of the Sistine Chapel. So the cardinals have still not
yet elected a pope. But if you believe this report
from Politico, a few of them have actually watched the
movie Conclave as a little bit of a guide. So
(18:30):
this is the movie starring Ralph fiennez Isabella Rossalini, and
Stanley Tucci. I think it's on Amazon Prime right now,
and cardinals have admitted they've given it a watch before
they went into the Sistine Chapel. Of course, the last
conclave was in twenty thirteen when Pope Francis was chosen,
and a lot of clerics and cardinals in the church
now were actually appointed by him, so they've never taken
(18:52):
part in a conclave before. So I think I feel like,
you know, Okay, the rest of us watched that movie,
is that really all you're doing. I'm sure there's more.
I'm sure there's a lot of prayer and reflection, but
kind of funny that you're all popping on Amazon to
be like, oh, exactly does this go?
Speaker 1 (19:06):
I was thinking about how long this was going to
take yesterday, and of course I went down the rabbit
hole and found out that there was a conclave that
took two years and eight months one time.
Speaker 2 (19:13):
Three years. Yeah, twelve seventeen. I believe Unneahvable all of
your celebscoop at West Michigan Star dot com.
Speaker 1 (19:20):

wind up with like a belt buckle or something hard
in the dryer and you just hear it clang off

Daan perfect. We'll do it again tomorrow Last Chance to

It's Mack and Schmitty and I got to talk to
(21:20):
you about my marriage Schmitty because there's a separation that's
happening between my wife Michelle and I. Okay, and it's
a streaming separation. We are out of sync right now.
And then the other night my wife said I miss you,
and then she proceeded to go downstairs and watch her
shows while I stayed upstairs and watch my shows because
we are way way off kilter right now. When it
(21:41):
comes to watching anything together. We like to have a
couple show. We like to have a series that we're
into as a couple that brings us together. And right now,
I am I've been watching the and Or series, which
drops like three episodes on Tuesdays, and then I've been.
Speaker 2 (21:55):
Watching the Star Wars series on Disney Star.
Speaker 1 (21:57):
Wars and Disney Buss and that I've been watching The
Last of Us on Max and Michelle is so not
into anything Star Wars. She's so not into anything scary
like Last of Us is and violent like that, and
so she's just been downstairs binge watching some terrible, terrible
reality dating television show and it's kind of it's kind
of been like this for almost two weeks now, and
(22:19):
she is seriously like, we need a show together because
I'm feeling like we're just not spending any time to
each other or like we you know, we go to
practice with our kids basically four nights a week, every
single week, and then we have games on top of it.
So we come home, maybe there's time for one show
that night, and then we go to bed, and so
we just don't see each other if we're not watching
something together. So I wanted to know what you would
(22:40):
recommend to watch as a couple to get us back
in side and terrible.
Speaker 2 (22:43):
Chris and I don't watch shows together.
Speaker 1 (22:44):
You don't.
Speaker 2 (22:45):
I think it's been like the most recent one was
Jackal and that was four months ago. Otherwise he's in
his room watching YouTube and I am in the living
room watching a serial killer.
Speaker 1 (22:58):
Now, you guys have got a stream separation going on
right now too.
Speaker 2 (23:02):
We used to be better about it in college when
we were together, but we've got very different tastes now.
It's actually really really hard. We get excited when we
find something we both want to watch.
Speaker 1 (23:12):
I got a good one for you if you are
like me and you're looking for that show, because I
was actually going to ask you because I knew you
watched it. He didn't watch The Residence with You on Netflix.
Speaker 2 (23:21):
And I think you would love it.
Speaker 1 (23:22):
I think he would too. That's a great couple show.
Thirty minute episode, ye, thirty forty five minute episodes goes
pretty quick and really entertaining. Like, that's a good couple show.
My wife and I have made the decision show we're
gonna jump in our new show is gonna be White Lotus.
We're getting half the joint. I don't have med Bandwagon.
We're getting in on the.
Speaker 2 (23:40):
Bandwig all the shows you said, I'm like, ah, we're
so cheap. We just have Disney and Netflix because our
lives revolved around our children.
Speaker 1 (23:46):
Yeah, White Loados definitely doesn't seem like a family show.
What is your couple show? Right now? Though, We've got
to going on Facebook and Instagram. Join in at West
Michigan Star. Starting to break a smile on two You're

(24:57):
to give you back. They said. This is a huge
thank you for the incredible team. Without them, they wouldn't
be this profitable, fantastic company. And I could not shine
miss the chance to shine a spotlight on this because
I do hope what she says is true, that this
will be an example to the world and employers will
really start taking a look at paid childcare because I
think it would make such a huge.
Speaker 1 (25:19):
Difference, without a doubt, massive. All right, Chvindia on the
mascot of the east Side in the Milford community. Well,
he's a runaway. He's a peacock on the lamb. Debbie
Foster owns D and D Farms and she's had peacocks
for sixteen years, has about thirty five peacocks, and last
month she took one of her peacocks out of its
pen to treat a sinus problem, which, I you know,
(25:41):
the fact that a peacock can have a sinus infection
was news that I just learned today. But she said,
he jumped up hit me in the face. So when
I did, I jumped back and he went off into
the woods. That was more than three weeks ago now,
and since then, dozens and dozens of people across the
Milford area have been spotting the peacocks here in photos,
basically become a local celebrity all over social media. Even
(26:03):
gave him his name, Debbie's hand. There was a guy
on Facebook who kept calling him Bob, So my husband goes,
that sounds like a good name. His name is Bob,
so that's how he got his name. And she's been
loving all of the attention that, of course Bob's been getting,
but at the same time ready to get him back.
As she told x y Z there on the east Side, he's.
Speaker 2 (26:21):
Weeded all these people. A lot of people haven't seen
peacocks before. Guess what, it's the first encounter, and they've
loved it. It's kind of cool ere begets to see him,
but we're ready for him to come home.
Speaker 1 (26:30):
Ah yeah, such an awesome animal and so photogenic of
course as well. Diana Ellis is one of those community
members who has seen Bob on the prowl and she
absolutely loved her time with him.
Speaker 2 (26:41):
I look up here. It is giant peacock right on
the railing.
Speaker 4 (26:45):
It's definitely the most interesting thing that's happened around here
in a while.
Speaker 1 (26:50):
She's got about fifty calls about it, and they're still
working to try and capture Bob the peacock as he
makes his way around Milford. But pretty cool, uh huh,
feeling good coming at you a couple times today. Just
want to share something alome going on out there. We'll
do it tomorrow six forty five and nine twenty on
Star Mack and Schmidty in the morning weekday, starting at
six am on Star one oh five point seven
Wa wa wakem It gets my day going and makes
me laugh. I of it. Mac and Schmidty in the
morning on Star one on five point seven, Good morning, Tritty,
Good morning. Welcome into your Thursday. Here we go weekend
to eve is upon us. It's could be pretty nice
to you. A little bit chillier than yesterday though where
we got to those mid seventies tempts. Didn't mind that
(00:23):
those will be back soon. But today high's near sixty
partly cloud these guys. We'll see a lot of sun.
Speaker 2 (00:28):
Today too, Smitty, Yeah, that's nice.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
Yeah, And that's so bad at all. Although you know what,
my day's just going to get better and better because
it started with that dreadite noise of your dog gagging.
I literally so my dog, you know, he was sleeping
at the foot of our bed. I got up. He
got up, and I'm going out there and I'm, you know,
looking for clothes, and I hear it yat, yat.
Speaker 2 (00:50):
Oh my gosh, So did you clean it up or
did you bail?
Speaker 1 (00:53):
It was a combo of both, because he like had
a trail going to the door from there and then
got outside and then I cleaned it up because it
was literally right in the path of most resistance, Like
whoever I left it for was gonna walk in it,
And that's a death sentence for sure.
Speaker 2 (01:07):
Hardwitter carpet a hardwood, Well there you go.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
Yeah, but well you're stepping in it in barefoot. Oh gosh,
it's sundenship or step.
Speaker 2 (01:14):
It's fine movies, music and all the gossip in one place.
Speaker 1 (01:19):
It's the celebritiescoop on Star one oh five point seven.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
Mana man, it feels like Miley Cyrus and her fan
cannot seem to catch a break from the drama, and
there seems to be some fresh family beef as Miley's mom, Tish,
has just unfollowed her on Instagram, so it's very interesting.
Fans were the first to point this out, noticing that
Miley is now off of Tish's following list, and a
lot of them think this has something to do with
(01:44):
Miley patching things up with dad Billy Ray So Billy
shared a throwback video of Miley on the piano yesterday
while he was strumming along with his guitar and wrote,
cannot wait to see this young lady crazy how time flies?
Sure if maybe that had anything to do with Tish
unfollowing Miley. It all happened about the same time. But
(02:06):
Billy Ray's new girlfriend, actress Elizabeth Hurley, has been all
about Miley going through, liking all these social media posts,
writing really complimentary messages. This would be kind of rough
because remember Tish just patched things up with her other daughter,
Noah after all that drama about her allegedly stealing Noah's
now husband and this like weird love triangle. So not
(02:29):
really sure what's going on here, but man, it feels
like Miley is constantly having problems with her parents.
Speaker 1 (02:35):
I am hoping to never reach levels of immaturity and
just ridiculousness that you're unfollowing your adult children on social media.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
Maybe feels good, I don't know. Actor John Voight says
him and President Trump are working together to save Hollywood,
not surprising. Voight's been a longtime supporter of President Trump.
But here's the deal, he says, the whole thing could
go south, just like Detroit, Michigan. I don't understand why
people keep dragging that city into it. The actor, giving
(03:06):
his first interview to Variety since the President announced those
one hundred percent tariffs on movies made outside the US boids,
saying Tinseltown really does need help, and it's a good
thing the president cares about the industry because he is
ready to roll up his sleeves and save it. Boyd says,
we can't let it go down the drain like Detroit.
This shouldn't be political. I don't know the political identities
(03:28):
of the people we've talked to, and we've talked to
a lot of people here. I don't distinguish them or
their party affiliation. Boyd says Trump has a good plan
to get Hollywood back to the Golden Age. Aside from
taking that shot at Detroit, Boyd also says him and
President Trump have both been treated unfairly because of their
political views. You think it's unfair. Now, wait for people
(03:51):
in detruct to get a load of this interview this morning.
That is unkind.
Speaker 1 (03:54):
Maybe John Boyd hasn't been there since the last time
he was relevant. It's been a long time.
Speaker 2 (03:58):
I feel like finally the vale you of Late One
Direction singer Liam Payne's multi million dollar estate has been decided.
Since the star died without a will, a United Kingdom
court has determined Liam's baby mama is going to be
in charge of overseeing his money and property.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
Is that the legal term?
Speaker 2 (04:20):
I guess. His former girlfriend Cheryl Tweety was appointed as
one of the executors of his estate. Music industry attorney
Richard Mark Bray will be a co administrator. Thirty two
million dollars that they are going to be trying to
work through on this. A lot of that will likely
be set up for a trust for their eight year
(04:41):
old son Bear. But once again, just a great reminder, guys,
a living will is super duper important because chances are
this is going to see a lot of legal infighting,
especially considering Liam Pasted with another girlfriend on the side
that I'm sure is not going.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
To love this.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
All of your celeb scoop but West Michigan start, She's.
Speaker 1 (05:00):
Going a fun point, Sevin, come boring into you. It's
Mack and Schmidti trying to make it better. Feeling good
right now and honestly, as any parent, this story's gone viral.
I could have waited until headlines. I didn't want to
schmiddy the Kentucky mom who wound up with thirty cases
of dumb dums on her porch. Did you see this story?
Speaker 2 (05:18):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (05:18):
So ridiculous. Her son was messing around on her phone.
You know Taylor's oldest time, right, But she got thirty
cases of dumb dums containing in each box about twenty
three hundred and sixty nine thousand dumb dums delivered to
her house. The picture showing all of them sitting on
(05:40):
her stoop there about one hundred and thirty bucks a pop,
though four thousand dollars order and Amazon had first told
her to deny delivery, but apparently the delivery driver didn't
ring the doorbell and didn't ask. They just left him
on the porch, so that Amazon told her they were
not going to let her refund the money, but she
put this post out there. Of course, it went viral
(06:02):
and people started offering to buy some of the cases
for which was really nice. And after she said, after
a long day working with the bank and talking to
a few news stations, Amazon called and they're refunding my money.
As he updated and said, those who offered a purchase
a case having given the option to either get it
or donate them to a charity.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
But that's where most I said the feeling good is
the news station. It was like a Target eight situation
where they were like, hey, Jeff, Come on, all right,
let's get to our Grin Rapids. Griffins obviously we know
in playoff action right now. And when you think about
the backbone of a team, you might think the coach
or maybe the captain. Not with our Griffins, it's the
equipment manager Brad Thompson aka Dog, a nickname he earned
(06:46):
from the team back in the nineties because of his
love of Snoop Dog. That's right. The heart and soul
for almost thirty years has been this incredible guy. Ask anyone.
Griffin's captain Josiah tells Fox seventeen he's the heart and
soul of this team. The coach says, oh, you know
Dog Dog and Grand Rapids. Yeah, everybody knows dog Dog
(07:09):
is huge. Griffin's captain Eddie Patterson is the one who
gave that nickname. As for Dog, it's real simple. He
shows up each and every day to make others feel good.
So you step out that door your best.
Speaker 3 (07:23):
I mean, at the end of the day, I'm the
team mom, like you know, and honestly, you know, if
they need a hug, they get a hug. And if
they need a little barking, like I have that in me.
To show them that it's a game. The people out
there are the ones that let you do that by
buying a ticket and to come to watch you. So
you know, be humble and just you know, enjoy your job.
(07:44):
So what I do is try to just make everybody
as good as me around me and better than me,
so you can excel when you step your foot outside
this door.
Speaker 2 (07:53):
Man, that is who you want on your team. By
the way, fingers crossed. Game three for our Grand Rapids
Griffins tomorrow night in Texas at eight o'clock. That's go Griffith, Movies, music,
and all the gossip in one place.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
It's the celebrities gup on Star one oh five point seven.
Speaker 2 (08:11):
I had the news yesterday. Motown legend Smokey Robinson has
had four former housekeepers file a sexual assault lawsuit against him,
and now Robinson's camp is saying it's filled with lies
and only designed to try and get money out of
the legendary artist. Smokey's attorney, Christopher Frost, issuing a statement saying,
(08:34):
as this case progresses, the evidence, the crucial element that
guides us will show that this is simply an ugly
method of trying to extract money from an eighty five
year old American icon, fifty million dollars to be exact.
He goes on to call out both the plaintiffs and
their lawyers, saying, through this process, we've seen the bizarre
(08:55):
theatrics of a news conference as the plaintiff's attorneys outlined vile,
false allegations against both mister and missus Robinson, trying to
enlist the public as an unwitting participant in the media
circus they are trying to create. If you missed it,
the accusers, who have all filed as Jane does, claim
that Robinson assaulted and even raped them while they were
(09:18):
working for him. They claim the allegations begin in two
thousand and seven and go as recently as to last year.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
Man A says, you hate to see somebody who has
been just in the public eye for so long like
this all of a sudden, with these heinous allegations.
Speaker 2 (09:34):
Justin Baldoni, director for It Ends with Us, has blown
so much money on his legal dealings with actress Blake Lively,
his charity has had to shut down. If you weren't aware,
there is a charitable part of Justin's Wayfarer Studios that
has taken quite a hit. Sources make it clear this
shutdown is tied to the ongoing lawsuits and the financial
(09:57):
toll that it's taken. Baldoni and co founder Steve sarah
Witz say that Wayfarer Studios itself is still okay. However,
the closure of this charity is a true gut punch
given the foundation's powerful mission. They fund causes from criminal
justice reform to gender equality, LGBTQ rights, and uplifting diverse communities.
(10:20):
Steve has already poured over one hundred million of his
own dollars into foundations and the work that they do,
and said this just cannot keep going.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
I mean, in just another quiver in the error, is
arowin the quiver to be like Blake Lively did this
to me? I was just trying to help people.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
And finally, in honor of Mother's Day, this Sunday, Jason
and Travis Kelcey invited Mom on their New Heights podcast.
One of our favorites, Donna Kelcey was a true mom
and in true mom fashion, did not miss an opportunity
to kind of embarrass her boy a little bit.
Speaker 4 (10:59):
Bob, did you not like any of our Travis Ryer's
girlfriends or my girlfriend, my wife Jaz.
Speaker 1 (11:05):
We really didn't bring a lot of ladies home. Yeah, no,
we got it. Mom. Okay, you dated, but I didn't
know any of them. So the same thing, Tray, have
I you know I met one or two.
Speaker 3 (11:21):
Did you have any time at.
Speaker 4 (11:22):
All to date?
Speaker 3 (11:23):
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (11:24):
I had plenty of time. I had absolutely zero game
and I looked like an overweight tow balloo. But that's
why I didn't have any girlfriends.
Speaker 3 (11:32):
So good.
Speaker 2 (11:33):
The interview is fantastic. Up for you with your scoop
at West Michigan.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
Start off, thanks for starting your Thursday right here. It's
Mac and Schmitty and there's so many things I feel
like our kids are missing out on.
Speaker 2 (11:44):
Smiddy Well, yeah, I mean any generation right. I would
not really know a rotary dial phone if not for
going to my grandparents every weekend in the summer. This
one caught me off guard though, I really did, and
I realized I'm just not a very classy person and
that's probably why my kids don't know this. But this
was wednes Tuesday. I'm sit in the living room and
(12:08):
my son comes in and goes, Mom, what is that?
Speaker 5 (12:10):
I said?
Speaker 4 (12:11):
What.
Speaker 2 (12:11):
He goes, that thing sitting on the island, and I said,
what are you talking about? And I realized my mother
in law, who'd been in town watching the kids, yea,
was ironing some clothes. So the iron was sitting on
the island. I said, are you talking about the iron?
He goes yeah. I go, it's an iron. It's for
ironing clothes. What does that mean? I said, well, like,
(12:32):
you know, if you don't want wait what And he goes, what,
I don't know what an iron is? He said, you've
never seen an iron, and then smack in my face,
I go, you've never seen an iron in seven years
of life. You have never seen me or your father
iron anything because we don't have nice.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
Clothes, well fat, but also we know you are, like myself,
a worshiper at the shrine of all things. Go into
the dryer every day, right, Like, that's what you use.
It's your iron, And most of the time no, I.
Speaker 2 (13:01):
Just hang it in my bathroom and take a shower
and pray the Steve. I show up to fancy events.
I've seen pictures of myself literally and seeing charitable events
in a wrinkled dress, and I was like, oh, you
would have no idea. So then we like got out
a video and I showed him and he's like, people
do this. I go all the time, buddy. People actually
(13:22):
constantly show up in really nice looking things. If your
dad and I had like real jobs, we'd probably iron
our shirts and our pants. There's this thing called pleats
people iron those absolutely awestruck by what an iron was.
Speaker 1 (13:36):
That is hilarious that they had never seen one before.
I actually had a similar thing happened with the cassette,
but we I couldn't. I couldn't prove it to my
kids really that that's what they were used for without
pulling up a video because I realized I had, I think,
like fifteen old cassettes in a box and no way
to play them.
Speaker 2 (13:52):
How would you play them?
Speaker 1 (13:53):
No, I like trying to explain, like the music, guys
is on this tape and then like pulling it out
and then using a pencil to really bad.
Speaker 2 (14:01):
Don't pull it out too hard because then you're done.
Speaker 1 (14:03):
They were They're just looking at it like why would
anyone want to use it? This?
Speaker 2 (14:06):
This is I have no sense, no way to show
my kids how CD works, no idea how to show
my kids a laser disc because anyone have a laser
disc machine anymore, like sitting in your basement, I would
love to know.
Speaker 1 (14:17):
This was so stupid. We were in uh we were
in Massachusetts and my kids were younger than they are
right now. But we realized they had never seen a
newspaper stand before, like where they're all just stacked up
and you drop fifty cents in or seventy business Yes,
outside of a business stand alone, you know, by itself,
not in the store. And my son, I think he
was like five or six at the time, and just goes,
(14:38):
why don't people steal all of them? And I was like,
nobody knows, buddy, nobody knows. No, you open it up
and you have access to all the papers. When you
open up a.
Speaker 2 (14:47):
Thing that's going to be a small town thing. Oh
you don't know about them lancing you? I had to.
They were real tight about that. I've never even seen
one would have eyes on it, Like, uh, uh, you
do not need all the give us a call six
one six four five eight one oh five seven that
tech if you can call an iron a piece of
tech that your kids were just really mind blowing about,
(15:10):
or drop that talk back inside our free. iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 1 (15:13):
It's the coolest new thing outside of a tablet SCHMITTI
is the new Iron. I'm sure he's gonna be telling
all his friends about it. It's up. It's the celebritiescoop
on Star one oh five point seven.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
Well, we start with a big health announcement. Lead singer
of Three Doors Down, Brad Arnold has announced to fans
he's battling cancer. It was a very emotional social media post.
Speaker 5 (15:36):
Got some not so good news for you today and
uh so I'd been sick a couple of weeks ago
and then went to the hospital and got a got
checked out and had actually got the diagnosis that I
had a cliche arene Old Carson onod that it tests
a size into my own and that's uh stage four
and that's not real good. But you know what, we
(15:58):
we save a mighty guy and he can over he
can do, he can overcome anything.
Speaker 2 (16:05):
Clear cell renal carsonoma. That is a form of kidney cancer.
And as you heard there, it has metastasized to his
lungs and it is stage four. He says he is
staying positive. That said, Arnold tells fans this summer's Big
three doors Down tour will not be happening, apologizing to
the excited fans who are planning to come out, but
(16:26):
finished his message by saying he is now adopting the
band's song It's Not by Time as his own personal anthem,
getting tons of love on Social Creeds, lead singer Scott Staff, writing,
if anyone has the faith and strength to face this fight,
it is you, my brother. You and your family are
in my prayers daily. I agree we can do all
(16:48):
things through Christ.
Speaker 1 (16:49):
Sad sad news, and I mean the biggest fear, right
does you just don't feel well and go in and
get told some serious diagnosis like that?
Speaker 2 (16:56):
Yeah, you saw the viral video a few weeks ago
at PNC Park. It's a Major League Baseball game and
Pirates fan Kevin mark Wood is now opening up about
the terrifying fall from the stands that left him thankfully
hospitalized and not dad with serious injuries, admitting he still
(17:17):
has a long road to recovery, but it's the first
time he's been able to speak. The twenty year old
former college athlete told trib Live he has not watched
the footage of his twenty one foot plummet from the
Clemente Wall, but new footage shows he was actually jumping
up to celebrate an awesome hit. That's when he went
(17:37):
right over the railing. He tells Trip live, I can't
really sleep. I have a lot of back pain, but
he said, I'm alive. As for his lengthy list of injuries,
he has broken everything, his family stated, a broken neck,
a broken clavigal, a broken back. But this is a
really nice side of this. More than forty five thousand
(17:57):
dollars has been raised to help in his recovery, and
he did take his very first steps just a few
days ago.
Speaker 1 (18:04):
So lucky to be alive. That video made me sick
to my stomach when I saw it.
Speaker 2 (18:08):
Finally, we are, of course, into day two of the
conclave to elect a new pope. If you missed it
earlier this morning, that was black smoke that came out
of the Sistine Chapel. So the cardinals have still not
yet elected a pope. But if you believe this report
from Politico, a few of them have actually watched the
movie Conclave as a little bit of a guide. So
(18:30):
this is the movie starring Ralph fiennez Isabella Rossalini, and
Stanley Tucci. I think it's on Amazon Prime right now,
and cardinals have admitted they've given it a watch before
they went into the Sistine Chapel. Of course, the last
conclave was in twenty thirteen when Pope Francis was chosen,
and a lot of clerics and cardinals in the church
now were actually appointed by him, so they've never taken
(18:52):
part in a conclave before. So I think I feel like,
you know, Okay, the rest of us watched that movie,
is that really all you're doing. I'm sure there's more.
I'm sure there's a lot of prayer and reflection, but
kind of funny that you're all popping on Amazon to
be like, oh, exactly does this go?
Speaker 1 (19:06):
I was thinking about how long this was going to
take yesterday, and of course I went down the rabbit
hole and found out that there was a conclave that
took two years and eight months one time.
Speaker 2 (19:13):
Three years. Yeah, twelve seventeen. I believe Unneahvable all of
your celebscoop at West Michigan Star dot com.
Speaker 1 (19:20):

wind up with like a belt buckle or something hard
in the dryer and you just hear it clang off

Daan perfect. We'll do it again tomorrow Last Chance to

It's Mack and Schmitty and I got to talk to
(21:20):
you about my marriage Schmitty because there's a separation that's
happening between my wife Michelle and I. Okay, and it's
a streaming separation. We are out of sync right now.
And then the other night my wife said I miss you,
and then she proceeded to go downstairs and watch her
shows while I stayed upstairs and watch my shows because
we are way way off kilter right now. When it
(21:41):
comes to watching anything together. We like to have a
couple show. We like to have a series that we're
into as a couple that brings us together. And right now,
I am I've been watching the and Or series, which
drops like three episodes on Tuesdays, and then I've been.
Speaker 2 (21:55):
Watching the Star Wars series on Disney Star.
Speaker 1 (21:57):
Wars and Disney Buss and that I've been watching The
Last of Us on Max and Michelle is so not
into anything Star Wars. She's so not into anything scary
like Last of Us is and violent like that, and
so she's just been downstairs binge watching some terrible, terrible
reality dating television show and it's kind of it's kind
of been like this for almost two weeks now, and
(22:19):
she is seriously like, we need a show together because
I'm feeling like we're just not spending any time to
each other or like we you know, we go to
practice with our kids basically four nights a week, every
single week, and then we have games on top of it.
So we come home, maybe there's time for one show
that night, and then we go to bed, and so
we just don't see each other if we're not watching
something together. So I wanted to know what you would
(22:40):
recommend to watch as a couple to get us back
in side and terrible.
Speaker 2 (22:43):
Chris and I don't watch shows together.
Speaker 1 (22:44):
You don't.
Speaker 2 (22:45):
I think it's been like the most recent one was
Jackal and that was four months ago. Otherwise he's in
his room watching YouTube and I am in the living
room watching a serial killer.
Speaker 1 (22:58):
Now, you guys have got a stream separation going on
right now too.
Speaker 2 (23:02):
We used to be better about it in college when
we were together, but we've got very different tastes now.
It's actually really really hard. We get excited when we
find something we both want to watch.
Speaker 1 (23:12):
I got a good one for you if you are
like me and you're looking for that show, because I
was actually going to ask you because I knew you
watched it. He didn't watch The Residence with You on Netflix.
Speaker 2 (23:21):
And I think you would love it.
Speaker 1 (23:22):
I think he would too. That's a great couple show.
Thirty minute episode, ye, thirty forty five minute episodes goes
pretty quick and really entertaining. Like, that's a good couple show.
My wife and I have made the decision show we're
gonna jump in our new show is gonna be White Lotus.
We're getting half the joint. I don't have med Bandwagon.
We're getting in on the.
Speaker 2 (23:40):
Bandwig all the shows you said, I'm like, ah, we're
so cheap. We just have Disney and Netflix because our
lives revolved around our children.
Speaker 1 (23:46):
Yeah, White Loados definitely doesn't seem like a family show.
What is your couple show? Right now? Though, We've got
to going on Facebook and Instagram. Join in at West
Michigan Star. Starting to break a smile on two You're
day feeling good on sard seven.
Speaker 2 (23:59):
Well, I'm bringing smile to every single woman and parent
that is listening right now. Because if you have heard
of the company Cake's Body, they're fearless founders Tailor and
Casey just did something absolutely unheard of. Celebrating at a
dinner with some of their employees, they announced they are
offering a hundred percent paid childcare I sit into announce
(24:24):
starting tomorrow the Cake's Childcare Credit, where we will be
reimbursing one hundred percent.
Speaker 1 (24:29):
Of childcare us.
Speaker 3 (24:30):
Our employees really are like so excited is for a
team outside.
Speaker 2 (24:35):
Their employers are really insighted changing for um. You literally
see women start sobbing. This is life changing, especially for
working moms. A one hundred percent reimbursement for childcare throughout
the year. What you pay, these female entrepreneurs are going
(24:57):
to give you back. They said. This is a huge
thank you for the incredible team. Without them, they wouldn't
be this profitable, fantastic company. And I could not shine
miss the chance to shine a spotlight on this because
I do hope what she says is true, that this
will be an example to the world and employers will
really start taking a look at paid childcare because I
think it would make such a huge.
Speaker 1 (25:19):
Difference, without a doubt, massive. All right, Chvindia on the
mascot of the east Side in the Milford community. Well,
he's a runaway. He's a peacock on the lamb. Debbie
Foster owns D and D Farms and she's had peacocks
for sixteen years, has about thirty five peacocks, and last
month she took one of her peacocks out of its
pen to treat a sinus problem, which, I you know,
(25:41):
the fact that a peacock can have a sinus infection
was news that I just learned today. But she said,
he jumped up hit me in the face. So when
I did, I jumped back and he went off into
the woods. That was more than three weeks ago now,
and since then, dozens and dozens of people across the
Milford area have been spotting the peacocks here in photos,
basically become a local celebrity all over social media. Even
(26:03):
gave him his name, Debbie's hand. There was a guy
on Facebook who kept calling him Bob, So my husband goes,
that sounds like a good name. His name is Bob,
so that's how he got his name. And she's been
loving all of the attention that, of course Bob's been getting,
but at the same time ready to get him back.
As she told x y Z there on the east Side, he's.
Speaker 2 (26:21):
Weeded all these people. A lot of people haven't seen
peacocks before. Guess what, it's the first encounter, and they've
loved it. It's kind of cool ere begets to see him,
but we're ready for him to come home.
Speaker 1 (26:30):
Ah yeah, such an awesome animal and so photogenic of
course as well. Diana Ellis is one of those community
members who has seen Bob on the prowl and she
absolutely loved her time with him.
Speaker 2 (26:41):
I look up here. It is giant peacock right on
the railing.
Speaker 4 (26:45):
It's definitely the most interesting thing that's happened around here
in a while.
Speaker 1 (26:50):
She's got about fifty calls about it, and they're still
working to try and capture Bob the peacock as he
makes his way around Milford. But pretty cool, uh huh,
feeling good coming at you a couple times today. Just
want to share something alome going on out there. We'll
do it tomorrow six forty five and nine twenty on
Star Mack and Schmidty in the morning weekday, starting at
six am on Star one oh five point seven
